Cooties (2014)

Slashers

Not gonna lie, writing these episode descriptions feels like homework... So that's perfect for this month's theme: Hack to School! Grab your class schedule and meet up with your old buds to find out what they did on summer vacation.

We are starting off the month with Home Economics. The big takeaway, do not make chicken nuggets like they do in Cooties from 2014.

The film was directed by the team of Jonathan Milott & Cary Murnion, who did Bushwick and Becky. The film was written by Leigh Whannell of Insidious, Saw, and The Invisible Man fame, alongside Ian Brennan, who is like the guy for the show Glee... apparently, I've still never watched it. Both play incredibly memorable, perhaps the best, characters in the film.

Produced by Elijah Wood's company, Spectrevision, which was originally called The Woodshed. There's a useless piece of trivia from my notes that I did not babble on air.

The film stars Wood, who almost blocked Rainn Wilson's "hobbit" line, but left it in as any good executive producer would. The film also features Allison Pitt, who was in Goon, and in the making of featurette for the film, references Sidney Crosby. Kinda cool, again forgot to mention it on air.

Speaking of all these damned actors, we take a creative jaunt and recast the actors from Return of the Living Dead into this film. Find out who we picked and why.
