Joshy's with the maggots now! Calm down, he's just picked Lee Cronin's Evil Dead Rise for the final episode of the Gems of '23 program. He and Andrew spill all the gory tea (be warned!) about one of the year's better genre entries. After that, they're catching you up on 2023 with reviews of Saltburn, Infinity Pool, Silent Night, Bottoms, and Blackberry. Finally, they're Landscapers-ing and thinking about cookie cutters with One More Thing.

To put a neat little bow on 2023, Joshua and Andrew will be breaking down their top tens of the year on the next episode! Please share, subscribe, and review!
