Episode 423 – Half Pizza’s Sake
Movies discussed: The Strings, Prisoners of the Ghostland, Haunt
This week is not great as far as movies go, but the conversation’s good. We agree that Strings is hard to get through and Haunt (and pretty much any ‘extreme haunt’ slasher) doesn’t deliver any goods. At least Charlie liked Prisoners of the Ghostland though?

Episode 422 – Ambulance Chasing Shaman
Movies discussed: The Columnist, The Medium, Woe, Vincent (short)
This week we are reminded that they can’t all be winners. Woe is slow, Columnist is sharp in places and dull in others. But Medium delivers the documentary-style goods, kind of like a more accessible The Wailing.

Episode 417 – Vampires in Des Moines
Movies discussed: Nosferatu the Vampyre, Bit, Dracula (1931)
The conversation is pointed and the stakes are high as we review three vampire movies. We’re not sure that Nosferatu the Vampyre justifies its existence, and we disagree on whether Bit is mostly neat or mostly annoying, but we all can attest that Bela Lugosi is the real deal.

Episode 416 – Never Have Pancakes Been More Terrifying
Movies discussed: Malignant, The Attic Expeditions, Superhost
This week we go a couple of rounds with Malignant, with disagreements whether it’s big dumb fun or just big dumb. We all dig Superhost to some degree, and are all gently baffled by Attic Expeditions.
