Sorry for the lateness of this week’s (last week’s!) episode. In keeping with our holiday-ish theme, we went with a film that, although it technically takes place during Easter, should still put you in a holiday mood with all the snow, sweaters, and celebration. Red is the color of the season. Enjoy our take on the Norwegian horror film, Dead Snow.
Take a high-school sex comedy, mix it with a modern zombie flick, and you’ll get Scout’s Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse, a request from loyal listener and previous guest Jordyn. Sorry we were a little slow getting it out this week.
First, head over to Netflix to watch this right away. Then, drop back here to listen to our thoughts and see if you take our side over this somewhat divisive film directed by McG.
Thank you, Mr. DeCouteau, for your tireless efforts at making movies that people want to watch.
So it’s a bit goofy and dated, but where else can you see The Greatest American Hero as a popular novelist and PTSD-afflicted Vietnam War vet wresting his son back from his aunt’s evil house? Nowhere else, my friends. Nowhere else.
Simon Pegg’s debut to American audiences fires on all cylinders as a rollicking comedy. Yet it’s the strong characters and heart that elevates this far above most of the other horror comedies we’ve reviewed thus far.
