Sinners dives into a dark and twisted small-town tale where secrets, sins, salvation and saliva collide.  A genre-defying Southern Gothic horror film set in 1932 Mississippi, with an amazing cast of memorable characters. Ryan Coolger takes on one hell of a ride with a film that blends elements of horror, music, and racial allegory, exploring themes of legacy, spirituality, and community. This was definitely a very unique cinematic experience and we could not wait to talk about it!

On this episode we dive deep into the world of Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me, Lynch’s hauntingly beautiful, enigmatic prequel to the beloved television series. A film that bends time, shifts perspectives, and embraces the darkness beneath the surface of small-town America.
We’ll explore the mystery, the intensity, and the raw emotion that Lynch brings to the tragic and unforgettable Laura Palmer. So grab a cup of coffee (and maybe some cherry pie), and join us as we take a walk through the fog, exploring Lynch's unique take on love, pain, and the supernatural and our love for him and his art.
