November 03, 2021 The Nest (2021)
Starring an actress who looks ridiculously like Matilda, The Nest is a film about a family who are infecting by insects which come out of a teddy bear.
Competently shot, acted and with some brief but great practical effects, this film just falls short for Sean who was looking for a hidden gem or the next cult classic.

October 20, 2021 The Happening (2008)
An exasperated Sean reviews M. Night Shyamalan's The Happening, judging it to be a wasted opportunity to make a dark, disturbing thriller/disaster film. He wishes that the film is remade someday, as the premise is a great one. Sean also goes off on a tangent about Terminator Salvation, among other films.Chronic under-acting and an environmental message that's as subtle as a kick in the backside hamper some early promise in this film, despite a great soundtrack and a stand-out performance from John Leguizamo. Thanks for listening!
