You either go with this film and enjoy it, or you don't!

Sarah from 'Weird Horizon' podcast returns to review a very divisive (shock, horror) M. Night Shyamalan.

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:

-Sarah and Sean are back with another cheery pick-me-up film.

-The inescapable nature of death and ageing.

-Sean is surprised how well the film stands up on the second watch.

-The inconsistencies in how the children mentally grow-up and mature.

-The accents in the film.

-Mid-Sized Sedan.

-Sarah appreciates the in-depth nature of the characters, rather than being stereotypical.

-The meaning behind the pregnancy and the following "aggressively horrible" scenes that follow.

-Sarah was surprised with the film's nuanced conclusion.

-Sean reveals M. Night Shyamalan is his dream guest.

-The podcast won't end.

Raised Questions:

-Why do Sarah and Sean always review really dark films?

-Did you know why the Jack Nicholson and Marlon Brandon film trivia is in the film?

-Do you think the performances were poor?

-Did one of the characters have autism?

-Why does M. Night Shyamalan never take the 'easy way out'?

-What was the point in the pregnancy?

-How high did she climb?

-Did you know this film was filmed during the Covid-19 pandemic?

-Is this film about whether the ends justify the means?

-Would you listen to Review It Yourself: After Hours?

Random Recommendation:

-The Cabin in the Woods (2012).
