Casual Obsession

Take a little bit of horror, a lot a bit of romance, and some musical theater and toss it together. What’s that give us? Your Monster!

This week we’re covering the 2017 film, Creep 2! We hope you enjoy what we have here today. From the shortest intro in ages to some nice Josef Creep theories, we’ve got you ready.

7 years of hibernation gave us V/H/S/94 after the truly abysmal flop that was V/H/S Viral. Did the hosts like it more this time around than when they all watched the first film? Spoiler alert, yes.

Time to dip our toes into some more fun timeline things. Dare to ask the question “What if my friend was an actor with a drinking problem?” or even “what if a meteor caused all of us to change reality?”

This week we talked about one of the unsung pillars of the Found Footage genre, Noroi: The Curse! A favorite of some hosts, a neutral experience for others, we hope you enjoy!

No official critic's review this week. It used to be very difficult to watch this film in America and as such there's not a lot of coverage.
