Monday Feb 13, 2023
Happy Valentines Day one and all! And what better way to celebrate this ridiculous day than by watching an early 2000's mediocre slasher that is plucked straight 'from the era'. The Nu Metal slasher! Tom and Aidan do their best to find a shred of excitment from this Valentines theme massacre, but come away from their review with the possibility of some fancy merchandise to help the balance of love.
