Just in time for the holidays, we serve up a plate of dysfunctional family horror to help you feel better about your own fckd family.
THIS EPISODE: “THE LOVED ONES” (2009) AND “PARANORMAL ACTIVITY: NEXT OF KIN” (2021)
It’s almost Thanksgiving in the States and the start of the holiday season, which means many of us will be spending a lot of time with loved ones. For some, that’s a real treat. For others, trying to get through those dysfunctional family dinners can be its own real-life horror show. In honor of those poor, unfortunate souls, this week’s theme is FCKD FAMILY. We’re talking about films where family is a real F word, and our two featured films are The Loved Ones (Casey’s pick) and Paranormal Activity: Next of Kin (Steph’s pick).
Watch the trailer for The Loved Ones.
