This week we recapped Spring, a 2014 movie directed by filmmaker duo Aaron Moorhead and Justin Benson. This film forms part of our Love Hurts line-up, but we're reminded that sometimes love is complicated. This is your 'Before sunset meets Lovecraftian with a bit of The Thing' mixed into the equation, so if any of those are your vibe, you'll enjoy this charming romantic horror.

It's a new week, and we're back with our final episode for our Vampire-themed month. We recapped one of our all-time favourite vampire characters in the 1998 action-horror movie Blade, directed by Stephen Norrington and written by David S. Goyer. We were thrilled to see Wesley Snipes back on our screens, his amazing performance in this classic, showcases he was a creative genius before his time! 

Notable highlights: True to nature, we start our episode with a segue, but we find ourselves back on track. Wesley Snipes would've been an interesting Black Panther, please invite us to a "Blood Rave" in da kluurb - we're all Fam-pires!!

We're continuing our vampire theme this week with the 2002...classic?... Queen of the Damned. Nothing makes sense, nothing matters, but it was a blast to talk about. Plus, we got some Aaliyah. Highlights include: 2000s nu metal is just too powerful, release the Cher cut, are we allowed to say twink?, why put Aaliyah in a musical vampire movie and not let her perform?, and Akasha's magic p*ssy.
