Elvira's Movie Macabre
Media: TV show
Approx length: Between 140 and 179 episodes depending on how you count them, but you don't need to see them all because there isn't a narrative and Elvira's character remains consistent
Where to find it: Shout Factory, https://www.shoutfactorytv.com/series/elvira-s-movie-macabre
What is it, in summary? Elvira hosts various cheesy movies while making jokes before, after, and during the movies.
What do you love about it? I love watching old cheesy movies. I love Elvira's personality and think she is really fun.
What sort of things are you likely to request for it? Elvira, the host and only character.
Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships? Yes, you can just watch any random episodes. The episodes labelled season 6 are pretty good.
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Sexual humor. Please look up the individual movies featured for specific content notes.
