It's episode 176, and that's something you can't unsee.
Bird Box (2019) paints a post-apocalyptic world in which the mere sight of a mysterious supernatural entity causes people to die by suicide. Can Malorie, alongside her creatively named children 'Boy' and 'Girl', survive a harrowing 48 hour trip downriver in a raft, remaining blindfolded the entire time?
Blindfolds at the ready as we discuss the vogue of sensory deprivation horror, the vagueries of Bird Box's world, the one time of day it makes sense to be blindfolded and the most important item to remember when embarking on a treacherous, water-based trip. Can you guess what it is? Joe couldn't.
All of which leads to one important question: How would you survive?
Whatever happens, one thing's for sure: Under no circumstances are you allowed to take off your blindfold.
Next week, we're going on another miserable journey down The Road (2009).
