Summary
Troy and Roger hang out on an almost completely deserted college campus to talk about the 2014 home-invasion style thriller Kristy. They dig into the very bad idea of staying on campus over Thanksgiving break, the creepy strangers who show up uninvited, and how quickly a quiet holiday turns into a full-on survival situation. The guys chat about the film’s tense chase scenes, its not-so-subtle commentary on privilege, and the oddly modern horror of being targeted just for existing. They also track Justine’s transformation from stressed college student to resourceful final-girl-in-training. While the movie has a few pacing hiccups and some “why would you do that?” moments, it still delivers solid suspense and a surprisingly mean streak. If you enjoy lonely settings, masked weirdos, and Thanksgiving vibes gone very wrong, this one’s worth the discussion.
