This week, Richard and Angeles plunge into the blood-soaked nightmare of The Loved Ones (2009)—a twisted Aussie horror gem where prom night turns into a DIY torture party hosted by a daddy-obsessed psychopath in pink.
Scene by scene, we explore the madness of Lola “Princess” Stone, the film’s high-tension pace, and how this little-known cult favorite blends teen melodrama with full-blown horror depravity. It's prom night, and the theme is suffering.
