It's April Fools... the perfect time to watch the world's first comedy horror movie! After all, hasn't there been enough senseless killing in the horror movies we normally cover? Let's have a murder that makes sense! Listen to Chris and Robert as they deep-dive on Student Bodies (1981), a parody of some of the best slashers of all time, including Halloween, Friday the 13th, Prom Night, and more!
