Movie Go Round

It's our last entry for this year's Movie-Ghoul-Round, and this time when You Did This to Us, you had us watch the serial killer thriller, The Snowman. It's pretty! It's frustrating! It's pretty frustrating! Which is not surprising, considering that they didn't film the entire script. Hear David, Brett, and Nicole splutter in dismay and try to figure out how to fix this mess when you tune in to this week's episode. Email the show at hi@mgrpodcast.com.

For our Movie-Ghoul-Round Around the World pick, Brett chose the eloquent true-to-life political horror film, La Llorona (no, not that terrible one with Velma and the bad haunted house prop, the good one from Guatemala). What did David and Nicole think of this tale of the consequences of denial -- denial of a family member's wrongdoing, denial of responsibility for genocidal acts, denial of the personhood of indigenous peoples?

When it came time for Nicole to pick this Movie-Ghoul-Round's Future Classic, there was one candidate that was the most obvious: Hereditary. Ari Aster's slow-burning horrific tale of familial inevitabilities and selfish secrets had powerful performances and masterful moviecraft. It was David's first time (sorry not sorry!) and a second viewing for Brett. What was the verdict? Classic cinema, sporadically scary, or overhyped snoozefest? Listen in and find out!

In our Movie-Ghoul-Round Can We Just Talk About..." slot, one of Brett's choices came up on our spinner, so we talked about Doctor Sleep. Inevitably, Brett, David, and Nicole spent some time on The Shining and how this film is handled as a sequel (including the recasting), how the movie stands in its own right with the new antagonists of the True Knot, and how it handles the new shining child, Abra Stone. And how well could screenwriter/director Mike Flanagan possibly pull off this juggling act? Email the show at hi@mgrpodcast.com. Find us online by heading over to mgrpodcast.com.
