Abby and Ellie haven't seen each other for a WHILE in this episode, which is why our witty banter and updates last until about the 17:00 mark.  Ellie discusses a hilarious fire chief and Abby whines about a short summer vacation that feels so far away.  There's something for everyone in this episode:  movie trivia, a roadkill pit?!, a throwback 2009 Folger's Coffee Commercial, some French Revolution history, and so much more we can't cram it all into the show notes!

Due to a misread text, Abby had to watch this travesty twice in two days so she considers herself an expert on the topic.  Abby and Ellie discuss the big 2005 vibes of House of Wax.  Juicy Couture velour sweat suits, Chad Michael Murry miscast as a brother instead of a boyfriend, Jared Padelecki pre Supernatural, Disturbed and My chemical Romance on the soundtrack, and more.  

Then, Abby discusses the bloody history of Madame Toussad and her Wax Museum.  We also, of course, in true QFF fashion, discuss the controversies that surround them:  the royal family wax figures, whitewashed Beyonce,  and an inaccurate depiction of Nicki Minaj just to name a few.  Enjoy the spooky vibes and comedic relief we offer in this movisode and don't burn the house down when you stream House of Wax!
