We’re checking in at The Bates Motel with MJ Smith from Reel Perspective and Let’s Jaws for a Minute!

Not that Evil Dead. Easy mistake! In this 1988 slasher, we’ll creep into an empty Air Force base, with an intrepid film crew, to search for the source of Japan’s Deadliest Home Video. Bob Saget never did this kind of legwork!
