It's April Fool's Day, which means we're talking about Fred Walton's April Fool's Day. Is this the Paddington 2 of comedy slashers? A testament to the psychopathy of the upper class? Both? Sabrina and Matt join Todd and Brogan to try and get to the bottom of what at the very least is the coolest poster for a slasher film themed after a lesser holiday.

Today we're joined by Steve Rudzinski and Aleen Isley, the creative duo behind Silver Spotlight Films. They're best known for the CarousHELL trilogy, but they've also produced several Christmas films including A Meowy Christmas, Curtains for Christmas, and the award-winning Amityville Christmas Vacation. One of their favorite Christmas classics is Michael Cooney's 1997 cult classic Jack Frost, which may not have been seen by as many people as the 1998 Michael Keaton family film of the same name but did arguably have the coolest VHS cover any of us ever saw on the Blockbuster shelves.

How do you talk about a film that eschews traditional narrative analysis and in fact seems to exist in open defiance of both film criticism and God? If you're Todd and Brogan (and special guests Amelia and Bobby) it involves a number of lengthy tangents, including multiple meandering discussions about 9/11 that — in a Franchise Fiends first — were so bizarre and off-topic that Brogan trimmed most of it out after realizing they totaled nearly a third of the runtime.
