Alrik and Bradley both have a deep love for horror movies, the boys usually rent as many tapes as they can get their paws on on Friday afternoon to make sure each night has at least one scary movie.
At the beginning of the school year, long before they have to deal with Feelings, Alrik picks out a movie that both boys agree will likely be more of an hilarious b-movie than anything else, Death Bed: The Bed That Kills looks absolutely terrible and even the highly imaginative and easily terrified Alrik doubts he'll lose any sleep over it. Bradley, who is usually only scared by things involving either monsters strong enough to kill honey badgers or movies about collapsing burrows, indulges his best friend but figures he'll maybe get a few laughs out of it...
Pictured: It turns out that Death Bed: The Bed That Kills is actually a lost gem of the genre of graphic, psycho-sexual horror films that came out of The Kingdom of the Two Sicilies in the 197xs called triangiallo (so named for the overwhelming number of pine marten actors and directors with their highly ∆ shaped ears and faces). Unfortunately for the unprepared thirteen-year olds, it turns out to be a masterpiece of horror cinema, with each shot ramping up the gore and tension until the final scene where studly pine marten teen heart throb and all-star Varsity Quarterback Jonny Americaburger (played superbly by Antonio San Martore and dubbed into Californian by the middle-aged janitor at the film distribution company's headquarters) watches his spotted hyena girlfriend Crushtina Sexhaver (played by least weasel Maria Donnola in what would now likely be considered problematic hyena-face make-up, and dubbed by the same janitor but in a shrieking falsetto) get devoured by the Evil Ghost possessed bed along with her Gross Middle-Aged Lover, after her controversial crucifix masturbation scene (which led to the movie being banned or censored in Iberia, The Catalonian Worker's Republic, The French Empire, and the Confederate Syndicalist States of America, as well as it being given an 'All Ages' rating in the Jackal Tribal Lands) and a Very Gross Sex Scene with a middle-aged, very Sicilian looking fox business man.
Bradley is definitely not scared and is just comforting Alrik although he does suggest they both sleep on the floor for the next several nights.
