Untold Horrors Reboot: Derelicts (2017)

Join Jamie and Steph as they delve into the chaotic world of Tubi's horror selection with their unique brand of Tubi roulette. This week, their Thanksgiving-themed search leads them to the 2017 film Derelicts, a home invasion horror that sparks a lively debate. Jamie and Steph find themselves at odds over this grindhouse homage, with its nods to classics like Texas Chainsaw Massacre and Devil's Rejects. Jamie finds the film lacking in professionalism and style, while Steph appreciates its gritty, nihilistic charm and dark humor. The duo explores the film's polarizing impact, discussing its homage to 70s and 80s horror aesthetics and its portrayal of a dysfunctional family during Thanksgiving. Steph defends the film's creative cinematography and its intention as a dark comedy, while Jamie struggles to see past its gross-out tactics and lack of finesse. Despite their differing views, both hosts agree on one thing: the bizarre and unforgettable character of Turk, the teddy bear-masked maniac who steals the show.
