What's crazy to me is that we're all just going to work, and buying our groceries, and brushing our teeth, and doing our taxes. Just pretending that if we dont look at it, its not happening.

Interesting (accurate) read on current events.
My takeaway was that the Civil War never actually ended bc the people responsible were never punished and we've been having a civil cold war for the last 150 years thats just boiling over now.

Look
V/H/S isn't a stellar property, but so far V/H/D Halloween seems like maybe the weakest sauce in the franchise.
