This week, Sean puts Ash through a twisted little thought experiment: how exactly are films sold to us, and how much do we buy into the hype? Inspired by his TikTok feed, Sean pitches Megan Is Missing (2011) to Ash—hailed online as “traumatizing” and “hard to watch.” But are those viral TikTok recommendations really to be believed… or is it just clever marketing wrapped in fear?

Join us as we break down the psychology of horror hype, internet-fueled movie myths, and whether a film’s reputation can sometimes be scarier than the movie itself.
