Jacob's Ladder (1990)

Jacob's Ladder (1990)

"Shat The Movies" fans are horror fans, so we jumped at the chance to do a scary movie outside October. When longtime listener Carmelita commissioned "Jacob's Ladder," the Shat Crew collectively squealed.

This 1990 Tim Robbins banger did lots of things we'd later see in '90s movies and beyond: non-linear storytelling, the questioning of reality, faceless doctors, and that wiggly head thing from Tool music videos. But it didn't stop there: "Jacob's Ladder" flipped the horror genre on its head by actually addressing death, not just killing.

In this episode, Big D crushes Gene's romanticism about '70s New York City. Ash gives a crash course on the fragility of memory, and all three hosts marvel at just how cute Macaulay Culkin was at 9 years old. What did the ending mean? We'll get into that, too.
