Episode 55: Visiting Hours

This week we have a movie so frightening you may NEVER recover! That’s right, in this episode we take a look at the 1982 underrated slasher film Visiting Hours. Deborah is a controversial middle-aged TV journalist, who is campaigning on air on behalf of a battered woman who murdered her abusive husband, claiming justifiable defense against the so-called victim. But her outspoken views on women’s rights incense one of the studio’s cleaning staff, closet homicidal psycho Colt Hawker. Colt, played my the underrated Michael Ironside, has some deep seated issues despising all things female, that occurred from seeing his Mother throwing boiling oil in the face of his abusive Father when he was a small child. On his first attack she somehow manages to survive, which leads to her being bed-ridden in a hospital and the true terror begins.
