417 - Gobbledyween: The Autopsy of Jane Doe (feat. Greg Sahadachny)

Leaves are on the ground. Blood is on the screen. It's time for Gobbledyween.   Take a break from the horror of the real world to join Paul and Arlo for that most venerated of Gobbledygeek traditions, the month-long horror movie marathon known as Gobbledyween. To kick things off for 2020, our pal Greg Sahadachny takes a break from the usual goofy stuff we stick him with (like the very goofy The Stuff) to go legit with his own personal selection: André Øvredal's 2016 procedural chiller The Autopsy of Jane Doe. The gang takes a scalpel to the film, discussing how Øvredal gets the most out of his "bottle episode" morgue setting; Brian Cox and Emile Hirsch's strong performances as a father-son coroner duo; how the film avoids fetishizing Olwen Kelly's nude body; and why nihilism in horror films can feel so satisfying.   NEXT: grab(oid) onto your butts, Uproxx editor Jason Tabrys joins us to talk Tremors.
