Shownotes

Husband and wife comedians Mike Bobbitt and Allyson Bobbitt take turns making each other watch a movie the other has never seen.

This week, they make their dear friend comedian/writer/podcaster Samantha Rager watch Sleepaway Camp.

Robert Hiltzik's 1983 Sleepaway Camp is a movie that scarred Mike for decades when he saw it in the theater at 11 years old. He was already watching horror movies of the day and had a subscription to Fangoria, but there was something about seeing kids his own age get killed in a slasher flick and the twist ending that literally caused him nightmares for over 30 years until he revisited the movie as an adult. Now Sleepaway Camp has become a favorite to both him and his wife Allyson.

Will Sam Rager find this as terrifying as a young Mike did, or will she appreciate the silliness of it like an adult Allyson does?

Even if they movie's infamous ending doesn't cause a scare, the ending to this week's episode will come as quite a shock.

Be sure to check out Sam's brand new podcast My Eulogies Please where she hosts a variety of funny people giving eulogies to fictional characters. The first episode may be out now. If not, it is coming soon and you can follow the podcast on Facebook at:
