Summary

The Spoop Bois Derek and Aaron are joined by author V.P. Morris ("ShadowCast," "The Dead Letters Podcast," and "Dead Ringer") to discuss 2002's psychological horror film "May" written and directed by Lucky McKee. They talk about the duality of empathy and disgust for the May character, how underappreciated Anna Faris is as an actress, and the magic pairing of McKee directing and Angela Bettis acting. They also get into the early aughts influenced soundtrack, how the movie is a realistic portrayal of using others, the Frankenstein elements, and many other aspects of the flick. Derek wants to hang out and eat melons. Aaron is reading for fun. V.P. needs more parts. Please check out and order "Dead Ringer" by V.P.
