About this episode
At the height of the #MeToo movement in 2018, CollegeHumor writer and actor Josh Ruben decided that he wanted to pen a film that tackled the all too gross conundrum that so many of his female colleagues encountered when they were forced to “diminish their light in the face of a man’s behavior.” The result was the movie “Scare Me,” which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in early 2020. Set against the backdrop of a remote cabin in the woods, “Scare Me” seeks to dump the typical tropes involving those kinds of horror movies and instead creates a claustrophobic clash of personalities between Fred, a down on his luck writer, who isn’t very good at writing and Fanny, a young upstart author who wrote a hit horror novel. When circumstances put these two together while trying to ride out a storm that has severed the power, they decide to entertain themselves by telling each other scary stories. In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we’re going to turn out the lights, order a half vegetarian, half cheese pizza and discuss the 2020 horror-comedy “Scare Me”….
