Shudder's The Last Drive-In is airing its final Halloween special tonight, screening John Carpenter's 1993 anthology Body Bags. Hosts Joe Bob Briggs and Darcy the Mail Girl introduced the film; Joe Bob awarded Body Bags four stars during the broadcast. Viewers noted the cast includes Mark Hamill and David Warner and praised the anthology format, with several commenters calling Carpenter's on-screen wrap-around unhinged and a highlight even where his individual segment drew mixed opinions. Multiple posts said this was their first time seeing Body Bags, while longtime fans welcomed the choice as a classic Halloween pick. The broadcast also prompted playful audience commentary about the film's gore, the MGM logo spoof opening, and the hosts' Halloween costumes. As the show's final Halloween special, tonight's screening functions as both a seasonally themed event and a capstone moment for The Last Drive-In's Halloween programming.
