It's Theta Pi time, bitches! We're throwing a massive party to celebrate Stewart Handler's 2009 slasher comedy Sorority Row and along for all of the modified tire iron fun is Adrian Rodriguez of the Slash Her podcast, who loves the film as much as Trace.

Grab your fur coat and tail because we're heading to the UK for a little Faerie Tale Queertre to discuss Will Gould's 1998 morality tale The Wolves of Kromer, which might be the only film we've covered with a 0% Rotten Tomatoes score!
