91. Girl vs. Monster: Skylar the Vampire Slayer
from The Start of Something New · host Start of Something New Podcast
When hinges creak in doorless chambers, and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls. Whenever candlelights flicker where the air is deathly still, that is the time when ghosts… err I mean monsters are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight! Welcome foolish mortal listeners to… well okay it’s technically a haunted mansion but not that haunted mansion. To summarize that long winded, and partially stolen, intro is that after a little over a month away we’re officially saying goodbye to 2012 on the DCOM train with a very spooky stop as we discuss Girl vs. Monster. Jake present a theory for Disney really pushing Olivia Holt at this time, Kate has words about the editing of phone screens in the movie, and both of them discuss how this movie totally didn’t steal from Ghostbusters but might have helped inspire Inside Out 2. They also go over all the news they missed while they were away including the Hannah Montana 20th anniversary special, the newly announced Disney Legends, and the continued longevity of the Descendants and Zombies franchises. This episodes tangents include but are not limited to: Dealing with illnesses, Reflections on Kate’s wedding almost a year later, Olivia Holts current career in horror, A 101 lesson on Shadowhunters, The YA novel adaptation boom in 2010s cinema, Avocado toast, and A Stephen King fact checkAlso stayed tuned for next episode where we will reveal our DCOM rankings of movies 81-90, this episode would’ve been very bloated had we added that.
