This week, we’re rocking our way through a double feature, the 1992 classic The Hand That Rocks the Cradle and Hulu’s shiny new reboot.
In the original, a picture-perfect family hires a seemingly perfect nanny… who turns out to be terrifyingly good at multitasking (revenge, manipulation, and interior design). Meanwhile, Hulu’s reboot tries to modernize the story, and somehow loses all the tension, charm, and, well… logic. 😬
We break down what worked back in ’92, why the new version misses the mark, and why some things are better left un-remade. Spoiler: nothing compares to the original. 🎙️💀
