We have all see those films where someone new moves in, or comes knocking at the door, or starts babysitting, or we have a torrid affair with…and they seem awfully normal. Then, as the movie unfolds, we realize they are as crazy as the day is long and need to be put down with a quickness. On this episode of The HO, we are discussing these seemingly normal psychos; what terrifies them about us and what would tip us off if we lived in the film. Also, who is our favorite movie psychopath?
