Happy Shud-umn! We hope to make your Black Friday even darker as you wait in line at 4am for the finest toaster oven $35 can buy… Does anyone do that anymore? Nostalgia for Old Black Friday is a sad thing… But what isn’t sad is our autumnal discussion about all things improv rap, Apple, weird Hulu commercials, post-Halloween watches, BeWAUGHnd Fest, and our feature conversation on A24’s highest grossing horror film to date, TALK TO ME. We hope you enjoy the feast!
00:00 - 00:08:51 Friendship! The first 40 seconds is a little improv rap maybe or maybe not sponsored by Apple. We delve into topics we are barely equipped to discuss (Middle Eastern politics), bad impressions, and really odd Hulu commercials.

It’s all been leading to this… We put on our most neon Jazzercize outfits and unfurled the magnetic tape carpet for the first ever guests on the SHUDcast – actor Jordan Belfi (Nefarious, Entourage) and director, producer David Bruckner (Hellraiser 2022, The Night House) to discuss all things practical gore and creatures, making friends while cosplaying in Universal Citywalk, badass crew members named Dragon, paddle ball secrets, and their new film V/H/S/85! Jordan and David were more than gracious with their time and went deep on the joys of making something that harkens back to that mischievous child in all of us, aka “F*ck You” Movies. So grab a tub of karo syrup and strap in as the friendship pool of the SHUDcast starts to get bigger!
