Hack or Slash

Episode 252: Bubba Ho-Tep (2002)

This week we commemorate Elvis Presley’s birthday by checking out the horror comedy Bubba Ho-Tep (2002). We assess the quality of its storytelling, unpack the films underlying emotional horror, and discuss the effectiveness of its camp. In this episode's b-side, we discuss our familiarity with Elvis, Ryan shares she has a thing for old men, and we debate whether anal soul sucking could be effectively depicted on screen. This episode contains spoilers, beginning at 37:58.
