Elena and Laura watch What Lies Beneath, a 2000 psychological/supernatural thriller that does the most. This moody Fall flick starring Michelle Pfeiffer and Harrison Ford may have overextended itself on the jump scares, but there&#39;s still a bathtub&#39;s worth of great topics to discuss. Cozy up by the fire and listen to Laura and Elena&#39;s take on blow dryer electrocution potential, neighborly sex wars, and ghost travel logistics.

Elena and Laura watch (oc)cult classic, The Craft, just in time for Halloween! This 1996 supernatural horror thriller stars Robin Tunney, Fairuza Balk, Neve Campbell, and Rachel True as teen witches who terrorize each other and their school/sea creatures via shoplifting and spells. Steal the closest kid&#39;s candy and prepare to get spooky as we cover everything from fire hazards to feminism and snail trails to silver alerts.

Elena watches one of Laura’s favorite thrillers — The Talented Mr. Ripley. Based on the 1955 novel by Patricia Highsmith, this 1999 film transports you straight to Italy. Matt Damon, Jude Law, Phillip Seymour Hoffman and our girl Gwyneth Paltrow star in this beautiful stress spiral. Grab a spritz, don your best linen ‘fit (no corduroy allowed) and listen in!

Elena finally gets Laura to watch Misery, the critically acclaimed 1990 film about a writer’s worst nightmare, based on the novel by Stephen King. James Caan and Kathy Bates give career-best performances in this darkly funny edge-of-your-seat Thriller. Snuggle up and get ready for a snowstorm of self-censored swears, sledgehammers, and tangents about pigs.

In Thrilled’s seventh episode, Elena and Laura watch Se7en, the 1995 neo-noir psychological crime thriller directed by David Fincher and starring Brad Pitt, Morgan Freeman, and Gwyneth Paltrow. Prepare to be scared and settle in for a dark, rainy, sin-filled seven days of murder and mayhem.

Laura and Elena team up to tackle Fear, the 1996 Psychological Thriller starring Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg. It’s a rollercoaster ride of gross makeouts, sad dog scenes, problematic themes and cute outfits.  Sources: <a href="https://fathersonholygore.com/2018/09/10/fear-queasy-male-jealousy-and-patriarchal-control/" rel="nofollow">https://fathersonholygore.com/2018/09/10/fear-queasy-male-jealousy-and-patriarchal-control/</a> <a href="https://time.com/3623630/mark-wahlberg-pardon/" rel="nofollow">https://time.com/3623630/mark-wahlberg-pardon/</a>
