1 hr - The Weirdness at the Heart of Father Paul (Midnight Mass Review!)
***Midnight Mass spoilers*** ***The Haunting of Hill House spoilers*** ***The Haunting of Bly Manner spoilers***
In which Ethan and Jo discuss the things they loved and the things they'd change about the latest Mike Flannigan Netflix series. Topics covered include beautiful filmmaking, quality acting, the importance of caring for your characters, dealing with poverty in film, and what counts as theology. And yes, we know that the sheriff is played by the delightful Rahul Kohli and that he doesn't share a name with his character in iZombie, that Erin Greene is played by the powerful Kate Siegel and that she doesn't share a name with her character in Hill House, and that Doctor Gunning's mother's name is Mildred. It's a challenge to keep track sometimes.
The Vox piece we refer to is here.
Check out our glowing review of The Haunting of Hill House and our pretty content review of The Haunting of Bly Manor.
