Ep. 97: The Silence of the Lambs

It’s our 8th annual Holiday Spooktacular and this year, Nate and Ryan are talking about a true horror classic: The Silence of the Lambs, celebrating its 30th anniversary this year. One of the rare horror movies to be nominated for Best Picture, The Silence of the Lambs is in even rarer company as one of only three movies to win “the big 5” of Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay (adapted).

Listen in as Nate and Ryan talk about Anthony Hopkins’ and Jodie Foster’s iconic performances and Jonathan Demme’s often underappreciated direction. Not to mention the fact that it’s a genuinely scary movie.

Where does The Silence of the Lambs rank for you among scary movies? How are you and yours celebrating the Holiday Spooktacular?
