This Halloween, the Chopping It Up Horror crew—Jesse, Jeannie, Joel, Jay, and Sledd—dives pitchfork-first into Hack-O-Lantern (1988), the gloriously incoherent satanic slasher from Jag Mundra. Part hair-metal fever dream, part small-town cult drama, this movie has everything: incest, flannel-robed devil worshippers, a mid-movie stand-up routine no one asked for, and High Pike giving the most unhinged performance since Dolemite.

The gang unpacks every ridiculous plot turn—from Grandpa’s pumpkin deliveries and questionable parenting to the infamous poolside murder and the porn star cameo that leads to a deep dive into the AVN Hall of Fame. Expect detours into satanic symbolism, family dysfunction, and why the blood in this movie looks suspiciously like Sriracha.
