Worst Horror Husbands (Dead Meat Podcast Ep. 207)

Now I am petitioning for the worst best friend march madness next year 😂 my bet is already on Juno from the Descent

I was thinking Alex Le Domas from Ready or Not. He's such a whiny baby and he totally knew about the curse and just didn't tell Grace or give her the chance to back out.

I love how no one ever refers to Ethan Hawke’s characters by name, they are all just Ethan Hawke

If we ever do a BEST friend, instead of worst bestie bracket, I’m nominating Rod from Get Out. Most clutch best friend in movie history.

I think Derek from Malignant was horrible as well. Shoes on the bed, abusive, and blames Madison for miscarriages.

MOLLY'S LITTLE SWEATSHIRT!

Petitioning Markie from Truth or Dare to be a contender for worst friend. I know how much Chelsea and James hate her 😂

Micah is the ultimate “gaslight, gatekeep, girlboss.” This guy practically invented this genre of dude.

Did anyone else automatically think of Juno from The Descent when they were talking about Worst Bestie?

Gerald calling himself daddy always gets me when you take into account what happened to Jess when she was a kid. Gives me shivers every time.

Regarding OG Black Christmas - Jess admitted that she originally wasn't going to tell Peter she was pregnant and getting an abortion. That line always stuck out to me. When a womans gut is to not tell her significant other about this kind of situation, there's a reason why deep down. I firmly believe Peter's true colors would have always come out but they REALLY came out in the event of the movie.

My immediate thought was Helen Lyle's husband from Candyman, not only is he (probably) cheating on her with one of his students when the movie begins, Helen's 4 weeks committed to an institution and he moved the student INTO their house and is letting her paint the walls. Like. Dude. Look at your life, look at your choices.

People seem to forget the beginning of Midsommar where she's talking to Christian on the phone expressing fears that her sister was going to do something harmful, and he does the whole "you're imagining this in your head again, you always do this, just forget about it" and you can tell he invalidates her feelings often. So she doubts herself/does as he tells her and then her whole family is dead. THAT was the moment right off the bat when I hated the character more than anything. His subtle creepy manipulation that resulted in tragedy. I will probably never watch that scene again. That scene traumatized me and no one even remembers it.

I think the reason Christian hits so hard for people is because he’s such a human character we’ve all had run ins with someone like that so it just adds a layer to that

I'm SO glad that Sinister got mentioned. Ethan Hawke's character wasn't gonna escape this one! That point made about "We didn't move two doors from another murder house, we moved IN to the murder house." It feels so real but also hilariously around the rules something like Homer Simpson would do or say.

“The Amish are affected.” Chelsea is so funny damn

I'm glad everyone's immediate thought in terms of this subject was Micah. He has to be the slimiest, dumbest, meanest and most obnoxious character I've ever seen a horror movie have. I so wish they had gone with the ending where Katie beats him to death with the camera. That works on way too many levels.

I can't believe i was going to say Billy loomis should have been on this bracket because of how he talked about Sydney's mom and just forgot he was the first ever ghostface lmao

Dan with Meg: do better my guy Dan with Herbert: the best malewife you could find for Herbert

We AAALLL know who the BEST horror boyfriend/husband is and that goes to my main man Bret from 2016’s Lights Out. Doesn’t gas light Becca into thinking she’s crazy, helps care for her and Martin while being pushed away, and of course comes back to hug and comfort Martin during the finale that I won’t spoil here for anyone who still needs to see it.
