Published: Aug. 10, 2020, 10 a.m.

Welcome back to Fright School! Joshua shares some truths living with stress during this bizarre time. Joe has been in search of entertainment that brings those Summertime good feelings. Joshua is re-watching STRANGER THINGS and Joe sells him on THE 10TH KINGDOM. We're excited for NETFLIX' fall lineup including RATCHED, an origin series for the One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest villainess, and REBECCA, a new adaptation of the Daphne du Maurier novel. Also ANTEBELLUM is coming to on-demand in September! We SPOIL the shit out of SHUDDER's HOST. Zoom seance's only sound like a great idea, but technology can be a real devil!
