Grab a chainsaw because we're slicing into writer Joe Knetter and director Marcel Walz's homage to classic rural horror titles like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes.We're mixed on this one, which has one of the best deaths of the year (file under: gloryhole sounding) and tons of queerness, but has terrible pacing/editing and a confusing message.Questions?

To Die For (1995)
Strap on your ice skates and check your makeup because we're talking Gus Van Sant's whip-smart satire To Die For for its 30th anniversary! After all, you're not anybody in America unless you're on TV, right?Join us as we heap all the praise on Nicole Kidman's Golden Globe-winning (but not Oscar-nominated) performance as narcissistic sociopath Suzanne Stone before going all in on the film's troubled road to release (so many test screenings!).Plus: Danny Elfman's jarring score, baby Joaquin Phoenix (in one of his best roles), assassin David Cronenberg and why there's no point in doing anything if nobody's watching.Questions?
