FALSE POSITIVE MOVIE REVIEW

Ilana Glazer co-writes and stars as Lucy, who along with her husband Adrian (Justin Theroux) is trying unsuccessfully to get preggers. They go to an old friend of Adrian’s, a fertility specialist (Pierce Brosnan) who uses a new technique that he’s developed to get the process going. And success! A little too much success because she gets three fertilized embryos but for the health of her and the children, she is asked to decide to abort one of them. And then she starts to go crazy? Ok, so ‘gaslighting’ is the term of the day here, but Lucy starts having some serious hallucinations and isn’t sure what is real and what’s not but the one thing she’s starting to believe is, that the doctor and her husband are up to something nefarious. Chris, Tessa, Marco, and Wright got together (in person!) for this Highly Suspect Review to examine whether this Hulu horror film is gaslighting the audience watching it. And to celebrate Chris’s ass baby.

Christopher Lawrence Cox (Founder, Da Boss)

Born in the wilds of northern Virginia, in 1992 Chris managed to put all of his survival skills to use and barely escaped with his life to Austin Texas, where ever since he’s dabbled in everything from plumber’s assistant to sandwich maker, from band to bar management. An opportunity to see theatrical release films for free by becoming a critic on a local public access show called “The Reel Deal” turned into a full-time job when Chris and his friends decided to take it to the internet. They built the site Spill.com, adding multiple podcasts and animated features, to no small amount of success. During this time, a fortuitous friendship sprung up between Chris and young Brian Salisbury, who was also a local film critic, and they merged their forces of will, and their laundry list of ideas for shows, to eventually build this paradise you see before you. Follow Chris on Twitter and Facebook and check out his Amazon Wish List.

 

 

Tessa Morrison (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad, Unstabletop Gamers)

Well-rounded nerd and artist, Tessa Morrison grew up in the misty mountains of West Virginia and was constantly ridiculed for being a “weirdo.” Then moved to Austin in 2009 where people said the same thing, but in an endearing tone. Tessa works an office day job, creates puppets and fiber art, cosplays, models for gaming and animation studios, and volunteers for various organizations. One of which is the Other Worlds Film Festival, Austin’s first SciFi film fest, working in the capacity of Outreach Director and programmer. Another is local DIY-comedy-wrestling league, Party World Rasslin’, where Tessa scrambles around stage-handing and doing art department nonsense. Wrote and contributed to website and magazine Strange Kids Club for five years reviewing films, video games, and Halloween candy. Co-hosted a Public Access show called Ladies of Fandom. Previously guested on podcasts Blood Over Texas, Threequel Club, Trash in the Can, Retro Movie Roundtable, and Nerds with Mics.
