Episode Description
This week we review and discuss Five Nights at Freddy's 2, a horror movie directed by Emma Tammi and starring Josh Hutcherson, Matthew Lillard and Elizabeth Lail, in which Abby Schmidt reconnects with her animatronic friends, leading to events that reveal the origins of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
We talk about whether the movie worked for us as somebody not part of the target audience that had never played the games and went into this without a shred of nostalgia, whether there is enough to the movie once you move part the creepy aesthetics of the Freddy Fazbear animatronics, whether the ending worked for us or if it needed to be developed more and expand more on the lore introduced in the first movie more, how FNAF2 stacks up against recent video game adaptations and why this movie signals a positive future for movies, and much more.
