This time on The Dive-In Moviecast.. respect the balance.

Hayden is joined by Joe Depakakibo of The Kyber Culture to discuss the nastiest horror film of the year, ‘The Substance’.

They discuss the film’s incredible ability to really GROSS you out, the film’s effective messaging and why it’s lack of subtlety works so well for the story being told, the dual lead performances from Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley, that absolutely bonkers third act, and much more!

This time on The Dive-In Moviecast, Hayden is joined by Evan of Rocklin Graves to discuss the surprise Horror hit of the summer, ‘Longlegs’, directed by Osgood Perkins.
