We're not singing our thoughts on Cyrano, but we probably should be. That's right, we're reviewing Joe Wright's new musical starring Peter Dinklage and Haley Bennett, who also starred in the stage musical written by Erica Schmidt, who writes the screenplay for this adaption of the 1897 play Cyrano de Bergerac. Later in the show, we also talk about No Exit, a new Hulu thriller...not much else to say there!

The cast includes Jane Adams, Kevin Nash, and more.

We've decided to mess with Texas Chainsaw Massacre. On a special bonus episode of the Cinemaholics Podcast, we review the new Netflix horror film directed by David Blue Garcia (Tejano) and produced by Fede Álvarez (Don't Breathe, Evil Dead). The film, which is a direct sequel to the 1974 original classic (and direct copy of 2018's Halloween) stars Elsie Fisher (Eighth Grade) and a few other people who probably wish this movie had never happened.
