This is a *very* short review in terms of the time the IT universe deserves. Did I mention this movie is nearly THREE HOURS LONG? Oh yeah, this is getting a deep dive discussion. Directed by Andy Muschietti (IT: Chapter One, Mama), the adult Losers Club returns to Derry 27 years later when the murders start up again. We all go on side quests for jumpscares--err, tokens to complete the Ritual of C.H.U.D. Pennywise turns into a giant spider and fucks shit up, so the Losers Club literally bullies him to death. It's like WWE creative had to help out when Gary Dauberman couldn't think of an ending. This movie's dumb, but fun. 5 out of 7 Losers.

Because y'all know my posting has the consistency of a meth head, I'm dumping a bunch of old movie reviews this weekend! First up is Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark, directed by André Øvredal (Trollhunter, The Autopsy of Jane Doe).

Four kids find a cursed book of short stories that starts coming to life. Kind of like a family-friendly version of Wes Craven's New Nightmare, but we also have to solve a convoluted ghost story. Even though this movie is sorely lacking The Green Ribbon, it's a fun watch. The effects are decently stomach-turning for PG-13 and Scary Stories profits from the nostalgia bump. 2.75 out of 5 toes.

New guest alert! Elva, mother of Nori Ann from Twilight Zone: The Movie, schools me on classic cinema. And Carl Denham is most definitely trafficking women. 

This episode is worth listening to just to hear me lose my shit over Tall Chris say "non-consentacles." Billy gets possessed by the Mindflayer, Eleven dumps your ass, and Nancy continues to be self-absorbed (shock).

Hey guys, we're doing something different this time around. Tall Chris and I are covering all of Stranger Things Season 3. I love this show, but holy shit I didn't remember anything from the last season! Luckily, Netflix knows their viewership and we're treated to a catch up episode with a big helping of character soup. Join us as we make fun of Chapter 1--Suzie, Do You Copy?

Matt Ortiz from our Krampus episode returns to talk about TERRIFIER and it was a blast! After a Halloween night of bar hopping, Tara (Jenna Kanell) and Dawn (Catherine Corcoran) run afoul of homicidal Art the Clown (David Howard Thornton). What follows is one of the most gruesome cat-and-mouse games with kills I've literally never seen in my 30+ years of watching horror movies.

Holy hell, this is our longest episode yet! One of my favorite people, Scott Mogey, joins us for the first time to talk all things Hannibal Lecter. He brings us a great Anthony Hopkins story and we have an excellent segue into the meanings of justice and what is right. It straight up turns into The Republic! Grab your chianti and your fava beans, it's podcast time!    

New guest alert! Nori Ann joins me to talk Twilight Zone: The Movie from 1983. It's our first anthology pick with four segments, three of which are re-tellings of classic episodes. Even better, we get to see the directorial stylings of some of the most influential filmmakers of the time for each story.
