For this episode, Nichole is going into M. Night Shyamalan territory with 2015’s The Visit. Seen as a return to form after a string of films not well-received, this film hits a lot of high notes but does something we have come to talk a bit about here on the pod: the intersection of ableism and ageism at the heart of the old people are creepy trope.
