While Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy prepare for the upcoming Chicago Critics Film Festival, they got in a little time for a short show of reviews. This week the discussion steers to just four titles including a horror film involving an island and supernatural elements (Shepherd) and a documentary takes a shot at redemption for the man who clubbed Nancy Kerrigan’s knee (My Hero the Hitman). To go along with the discussion with Erik Laws on episode 305, Steve gets his chance to weigh in on Sam Raimi’s new Marvel film (Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness). But the timeliness of a new film dealing with the illegality of abortion in 1960s France really strikes home this week and the duo want you to know about it…so you can know (Happening).
