On this episode Chris and Joe once again dive into a subject they don’t discuss very often: horror movies. That’s right, in honor of Halloween coming up this weekend, the boys talk about some of their favorite horror films, what they like and don’t like about the genre and generally what scares them.
But, to be honest, they’re not experts on horror movies. Fortunately, they’ve brought in a very special guest to help: Scott Weinberg.
That’s right, noted film critic, podcaster, producer and horror film expert Scott Weinberg is on the show this week. So you know this episode is gonna be chock full of some spooky horror movie goodness (and badness). And that’s not all.
The trio also get back to their roots with discussions on their first horror movie experiences, the movies that made them fall in love with movies and why Scott loves horror movies so much. Plus, the usual more. In fact, much, much more.
It’s a great episode. Thanks for listening.

On this episode Chris and Joe tackle a subject they don’t discuss very often: horror movies. That’s right, in honor of it being October and with Halloween coming up, the boys talk about some of their favorite horror films, what they like and don’t like about the genre and generally what scares them. Hint: it’s not clowns, although they are pretty scary.
And even if they don’t get completely into horror movies this time, they will on a special upcoming episode with a great guest. You’ll want to be here for that one. Meantime, they also get back into upcoming Marvel film and TV, heap even more praise on Enola Holmes, Millie Bobby Brown and the rest of the cast and renew their commitment to all-things Star Trek. Plus, the usual more.
This is gonna be a shorter episode synopsis as the actual episode is late due to some technical difficulties. So, we’ll just let it (and Chris & Joe) speak for themselves. Thanks for listening.

Day three of the festival we got some screenings in, a few interviews, and lots of shorts.
I Saw The Devil Directed by Ji-woon Kim. Starring Byung-hun Lee (The Good the Bad, the Weird) and Min-sik Choi (Oldboy, Lady Vengeance.)
Shannon: I seriously contemplated not attending this screening, because it was so early, and because it was subtitled, and it was 2 and 1/2 hours long.
I am so glad I decided to attend. This Korean revenge movie blew me away, and is my favorite movie of the festival thus far.
I Saw The Devil is a beautiful, brutal, and horrifying revenge tale. It has the most chilling sociopathic villain I have seen in any movie since Hannibal Lector. The 2 and 1/2 hour running time flies by. Full review forthcoming.
Interview: Simon Rumley (director; Red, White, and Blue.) Simon is from London, but directed his film entirely in the Austin area, and even hosted a pub crawl to the various venues that he used in the movie. He talked about the taboos he broke in the movie, the jarring musical score, and how influential pal Tim League helped him with the movie. Full interview forthcoming.
We Are What We Are Directed by Jorge Michel Grau. Starring Adrián Aguirre, Miriam Balderas, Francisco Barreiro, and Carmen Beato. Summary: When the patriarch of the family passes away, the teenage children must take responsibility for the family chores: the preparation of the rituals…
This was a bit of a mixed bag, about a mexican family of cannibals who must make do after the patriarch of the family passes away unexpectedly.
What’s surprising is that cannibals are usually depicted as redneck backwards ass families. This is, by all appearances, a normal family.
They eat humans for “the ritual,” but the movie never really explains what the ritual is. I wish we would have found out more about their motivations for the cannibalism. I’m kind of in the middle on this one.
