Sean cannot stop bringing up the wrong Ferguson in this review of Life (2017) with Sarah from Weird Horizon.

My Guest: Sarah hosts the 'Weird Horizon' podcast, which contains "Discussions on the spooky and the esoteric, the counter-cultural and the just plain weird".

Check it out here: https://anchor.fm/weirdhorizon 

Discussion Points:

-The boring DVD cover description of this film.

-Sarah zones out listening to Sean talk.

-Sean jumps out 4 minutes in, for very 'authentic podcasting' reasons.

-THAT hand scene.

-Calvin gets really grouchy if you interrupt his sleep.

-Sarah and Sean's predilection for 'deliciously bleak' films.

-The character names aren't important, don't worry about them.

-Rebecca Ferguson in all her restrained glory (restrained as in her acting style).

-Sarah and Sean use lots of big words.

Raised Questions:

-Is 'Life in Zero G' a good name for a band?

-Why do reviewers quote "This film meets this film"?

-Did this film come along at a time when there was too many Space-based films?

-Is Calvin just a homicidal Flubber?

-Would you listen to 'Northern Audio Description'?

-Why didn't Sean ask Bill from Bill Reads Bad Reviews to review this?

-Does CGI actually enhance this film?

-Are humans getting too big for their britches?

-Would you buy a film described as 'Alien meets Chicken Run' or 'Saw meets Driving Miss Daisy'?

-Why did Sarah have to go THERE?

Quotes of the episode:

"This is bleak and horrible, and there's death. Sarah will like this".
