ep412: The Haunting of Hype House (2023)

Video Monsters

The Video Monsters continue their Chattanooga Film Festival 2023 coverage by discussing THE HAUNTING OF HYPE HOUSE (2023) - an indie, horror-comedy that answers the question "what if you were haunted by a ghost...and everyone liked the ghost more than they like you?" - all through the lens of influencer culture. Nathan has been singing the praises of this film for months and is, dead ass, extremely excited to be joined by very special guests Matt Farren, Mahlon Tracy, Michael Salamone, Royal Dean, and Brandon Douglas to finally discuss the The Haunting of Hype House! If you've not yet seen the film, the first half of the episode is a mostly spoiler-free discussion, before diving a bit deeper into analysis in the second half. So grab your giant plush tiger, pick up your water bottle, and make sure the camera is rolling as you meet us at the Ouija board for THE HAUNTING OF HYPE HOUSE!! We support the hard work of all of the actors, writers, and everyone else involved in creating movies, which we are very passionate about. So it is important to note that The Haunting of Hype House is not affiliated with AMPTP and therefore exempt from the strike.
