    In The Mouth Of Madness (1995) (SEVEN YEAR ANNIVERSARY)

    For our SEVENTH ANNIVERSARY episode, the squad stares straight into the abyss as we tackle YOUR pick, IN THE MOUTH OF MADNESS (1995). Is this Lovecraftian horror done right? Does John Carpenter + camp = cosmic perfection…or total madness? And let's be real, with Sam Neil on screen, there’s no way Colton & Rowan aren't spiralling into Jurassic Park territory. Join us for a celebratory descent into insanity, anniversary vibes, and eldritch chaos as we decide whether this one earns a NAY, OKAY, YAY, or SLAY.
