This week Josh and Drusilla schlep to the movies to see Alex Garland's A24 joint Men (2022).
From Wikipedia: "The film stars Jessie Buckley as a widowed woman who travels on holiday to a countryside village but becomes disturbed and tormented by the strange men in the village, all portrayed by Rory Kinnear." But first! Drusilla and Josh talk about John Waters' Polyester for a sec before pivoting to David Cronenberg's Crimes of the Future, which they both ADORED.
Then they get into Men. They both sort of like this movie... with reservations. They talk about the performances by Jessie Buckley and Rory Kinnear and the beautiful cinematography. The pair discusses the state of arthouse horror and the evolution (or dissolution) of the A24 brand. Josh feels like arthouse/A24-style horror films are going out of style in favor of teen popcorn films. Drusilla blames it on Pixar! Of course, they bitch about the term "elevated horror." Josh is sick of tragic backstories. They both wished for Straw Dogs and got The Green Man instead. Then they play Have They Seen It? Before wrapping up.
Next week: Mario Bava's The Whip and the Body.
