M3GAN: Hold Me Closer, Tiny Olsen

W3 M4D3 4 N3W 8357 Fr13ND! It's time to dig into the 2022 sci-fi horror M3GAN, spearheaded by James Wan! There's a lot of talent behind this meme of a movie, including stand-out child actors, unbelievable stunts, and a special effects department that blew us away. Jaime did the research for this one while Eric did the recap, and we had a blast watching this tiny robot's reign of terror.

Content Warnings: parental death, grief and trauma experienced by a kid (portrayed by a very talented child actor), brief body horror, gore, animal death, gaslighting, threat of sexual assault, and child death.  (Listen to the ad break for more details!)
