On this episode of Dads From The Crypt, we're reviewing Buddy, the latest mind-bending film from Casper Kelly! We're also diving into what we're calling the “Millennial Media Horror” trend — movies and media that blur the line between nostalgia, surrealism, and straight-up nightmare fuel. What is it about this kind of bizarre, unsettling entertainment that gets under our skin?
