HaHAHahahHA (Sorry, bad joke). But appropriate! And hey, don't we all go a little mad sometimes??? Starring Joaquin Phoenix (Gladiator, Walk the Line, The Master) and Lady Gaga (A Star Is Born, House of Gucci).

Holy macaroni folks! Emily and Preston watched The Substance and they will NEVER be the same again. This psychological horror-thriller was inspired by Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray. It's equal parts absurd comedy, body-horror, and satire. Showcasing amazing performances from the cast, starring Demi Moore (Indecent Proposal, Ghost, G.I. Jane), Margaret Qualley (Once Upon a Time... in Hollywood, The Nice Guys, Fosse/Verdon) and Dennis Quaid (Inner Space, Frequency, Enemy Mine). This film was written/directed by the French filmmaker Coralie Fargeat (Revenge, The Sandman). Such a trippy film. And Demi Moore has still got it! Which makes us wanna stand up at the Oscars and shout... "G.I. Jane 2... CAN'T WAIT!!"
Enjoy!!

Written/Directed by James Watkins (The Take, Eden Lake, The Woman in Black) and starring James McAvoy (Split, The Last King of Scotland. X-Men: First Class, Atonement), Mackenzie Davis (Black Mirror, Terminator: Dark Fate, Blade Runner 2049), and Scoot McNairy (12 Years a Slave, Narcos: Mexico, True Detective).

Ash is back baby! We're talking waaaaayyyy back. All the way back to 1300s Medieval England. And he's kicking some Deadite butt. And it's just... GROOVY. Armed with a chainsaw, strong jawline, action-hero one-liners, and his trust Oldsmobile, he's on a mission to get back home. But first, he has to get his hands (or hand?) on the Necronomicon. Listen in as Emily watches the third installment in the original Evil Dead trilogy, brought to us by Sam Raimi (Spider-Man, The Evil Dead, Darkman).

Okay, we can all agree a teacher sleeping with their student is wrong, right?! But what if they're in love? And they get married and have kids AFTER the teacher is released from prison? Well, if you think it's not so black and white... then May December is for you! Directed by Todd Haynes (Carol, I'm Not There, Velvet Goldmine). This film features some excellent performances from the always-great Natalie Portman (Closer, Black Swan, V For Vendetta) and Julianne Moore (Boogie Nights, The Kids Are All Right, Children of Men). Y'know, maybe if it's a female teacher and they're only 13 years apart, it's not so... NOPE! Still wrong. But this movie was pretty good regardless.

That's right, folks. We went there! Taking on the high-brow arthouse films this week when we discuss a real downer of a movie. The Zone of Interest follows the story of Auschwitz commandant Rudolf Höss and his wife Hedwig. Starring Christian Friedel (Babylon Berlin, The White Ribbon) and Sandra Hüller (Anatomy of a Fall), and written/directed by Jonathan Glazer (Under the Skin, Sexy Beast). Brace yourselves folks, because this one was a downer! And while you might only want to see the movie once, we think you'll enjoy listening to this episode at least... once. (Not sure where we were going with that setup).

M. Night Shyamalan strikes again! And we can't tell if that's a good or a bad thing. This week Emily and Preston watch Trap, starring Josh Hartnet (Black Hawk Down, 30 Days of Night) as a serial killer nicknamed "The Butcher." The Philadelphia police and F.B.I. have the brilliant idea to set up a sting operation, sifting through 30,000 innocent bystanders to (possibly) catch a person who might be a killer. They don't know what he looks like. They don't know his name. They don't know ANYTHING about him. But that's fine! Because we get to enjoy roughly 40 minutes of Saleka Shyamalan's music, who is also M. Night Shyamalan's daughter in real life, and... I'm sorry... we just can't. It's all just so absurd. But hey, if you like taking a ride on the Shyamalan train, then who are we to Yuck Your Yum?
