Feed the pig nosleep podcast7/10/2023 It makes you all but certain that no one is safe from the deadites even up till the end. This film has some of the wildest and darkest scenes I’ve seen in a long time. Not to say that this film is completely humorless, it just goes hard into the body horror and torture porn. Like 2013’s evil dead, this film foregoes the majority of the humor that the original trilogy featured. This is a very strong entry into the franchise that expands the world outside of just a cabin in the woods. They inadvertently release flesh-possessing demons and have to fight for survival. If you’ve seen any of the previous Evil Dead films, you know where this is going. Before they can work out their issues, an earthquake strikes and Ellie’s children discover a hidden ancient tome and mysterious recordings of a priest reading from it. In this latest entry in the Evil Dead franchise, two estranged sisters Ellie and Beth (played by Alyssa Sutherland and Lily Sullivan) awkwardly reunite in the midst of personal crises. Listen/watch our latest episode with special guest Jen Ponton.Įvil Dead Rise continues the story of deadites just trying their best life, and those meddling humans that try to ruin their fun. Evil Dead Rise changes it up from the cabin in the woods format, and it pulled it off successfully. The deadites are back, and they are as mean as ever.

(1962) It pulls no punches with either, yet they don’t feel exploitative or arbitrary since they both work to serve the story. With a hard R rating, we are treated to plenty of the ol sex and ultra violence. Skarsgard does a great job of emoting the inner world of James and we get to experience his pride, shame, hubris, and debauchery in a way that feels real. Even though there is a prevalence of dream logic and nightmarish qualities, it stays grounded in the perspective of James. The combination of excellent acting and directing really sells the movie. There are enough twists and turns that it stays engaging throughout the runtime. That being said, this film is very unique. It’s a weird mix of the show White Lotus, Eyes Wide Shut, and Total Recall. It goes from a relatively normal to progressively more surreal and hedonistic, and end with full on existential horror. Infinity Pool examines the horrors of the uber wealthy escaping justice while flaunting it for their entertainment. And this film shares a lot of the brutality and dreamlike aspects of his previous film Possessor. This is the second Brandon Cronenberg film that we have reviewed on the show. Narrowly escaping punishment James discovers that the true horrors of the island lie with the decadent and hedonistic tourists that take advantage of the bizarre world of the island. Tragedy strikes and James finds himself at the mercy of the brutal and surreal Justice system of La Tolqa. Despite warning that it’s dangerous off-grounds, they spend a day with Gabi and her husband Alban picnicking and drinking on the beach. While there, they Gabi (Mia Goth) who is a big fan of James’ previous novel, and is excited to show them the island outside of the confines of the luxurious resort. I don't know what is scarier, the unchecked power of the wealthy, the surprise reach-arounds, or the conspicuous lack of eyebrows.Īn american couple James and Em Foster (Alexander Skarsgård and Cleopatra Coleman) take a resort vacation to the tropical island of La Tolqa to rekindle their relationship and to break James out of writers block.
