Get in losers, let's go to the movies. We're saddling up and strutting our way through the Messed Up mall of Forbidden Fruits - the latest Shudder original that's part Mean Girls, part The Craft and part Mallrats? That last one is debatable, especially for high school Griffey.

In this episode, Sam reveals his new approach to reviewing movies by going totally method and stepping into the mind of a teenage mall girl from Texas. Meanwhile, Griffey and Heath grapple with whether they are aging out of stories intended for Gen Z. By the way, were there supposed to be witches in this movie?

Logline: At a mall store, Apple leads a secret witch cult with coworkers Cherry and Fig. New hire Pumpkin questions their sisterhood, forcing them to confront inner darkness or meet violent ends.
