Last week's episode of Pretty Little Liars: Summer School left off with Faran (Zaria) taking on Bloody Rose Water's test like a champ. Of course, Bloody Rose Waters is a sore loser. So, she still attacks Faran, who not so easily gets away but not before slicing her arm with a knife. This week's
Joe Bob Briggs and Darcy the Mail Girl returned for one of their four final specials for The Last Drive-In with a creature feature meets modern horror pairing, bringing together Rawhead Rex (1986) and Oddity (2024). It is a bizarre double feature on paper, and somehow even stranger in execution.
