We’re only halfway through April 2021 and the good movies are few and far between. But Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy may actually have a few recommendations for you this week and it arrives with horror in all its manifestations. There is a haunted house (The Banishing), backwoods farmers (Honeydew) and the woods themselves (In the Earth). But there are also toxic relationships (Monday, Slalom), shadow organizations (Trigger Point, The Rookies) and Ruby Rose running down jobs for a wheelchair-bound Morgan Freeman (Vanquish). But there is nothing horrible about the wonderful Barbara Crampton getting a chance to sink her teeth into a lead role in Travis Stevens’ Jakob’s Wife and the duo expand upon their praise from SXSW.   0:00 - Intro 4:12 – The Banishing 11:14 - Trigger Point 17:19 – Slalom 23:40 – Monday 35:51 -  The Rookies 45:37 – Jakob’s Wife 58:24 – Vanquish 1:12:19 - Honeydew 1:27:59 - In the Earth 1:40:08 – Outro
