Episode 528- Burial Ground (1981)

August 11, 2025·1 hr 11 min·5 clips

The episode opens with a personal horror story about a live wasp in the toilet. That immediately sets the tone. Katie and Alan turn the gross-out into a running bit. From there, they pivot into the movie and start picking apart its logic. The conversation keeps snagging on the film's strange body-horror details. They talk about dry humping, a grabbed ankle, and a maggot man dragging someone away. They notice how little anyone on screen seems to care about survival. That becomes one of the episode's favorite targets. The hosts keep calling out the characters for having no self-preservation instinct. They also keep returning to the movie's zombies, which they describe through their odd movements and anatomy. One zombie is fast. Another pops up and changes the tempo. A third seems to emerge like a joke the movie did not mean to make. The eyeballs get a lot of attention. So do the weirdly placed eyes and the idea of two eyes ending up in the same hole. The pair turns those visual details into a barrage of fake labels and mock taxonomy. They riff on double eyes, bowling pin shit, and octopus nonsense without ever losing the thread. The middle of the episode gets especially loose. They revisit a callback from a previous episode and admit they need help remembering what it means. That becomes another riff instead of a problem. The show treats memory lapses, half-formed references, and sudden blank spots as part of the fun. The finale shifts into Patreon talk and a frank apology for missing a month. Even that becomes character work. They talk about guilt, support, and the awkward urge to swat away kindness with a joke. It is messy, candid, and very much in their lane. The episode never tries to be polished. It tries to be funny, specific, and openly unimpressed. That is exactly what it is.
