In this episode Mike, Rich and Steve tackle six of the recent releases; click the links to watch the trailers for each!

 

We kick off with FREAKS VS THE REICH (Dazzler) - not the best film title, but boy, what a movie! 

Next is MONOLITH (Blue Finch Film) - a story about a journalist who investigates a strange phenomenon and discovers her past is tied to it. This is one of the best "Covid" films so go check it out!

THE TROUBLES: A DUBLIN STORY (High Fliers) seeks to intertwine a crime narrative with terrorism in the 1980s - it has mixed results for sure...

THE LIST (Miracle Media)  is set in South America and sees a wealthy family the victim of a PURGE style event after the overthrow of the old regime.

UNDERGROUND (Miracle Media) find a group of girls on a bachelorette weekend wander off into some disused tunnels...

Finally, V/H/S/94 (acorn media) is the latest edition of the anthology series - will it be any better than the others?

 

Our Short Shot is ASCENDANTS - this was shown at last year's @FSFFestival and is largely the work of Leroy Kincaid - check out the other films on his channel!

 

Our DTV Throwback is FRIDAY 13th PART 8 - JASON TAKES MANHATTAN - this was the first of the franchise to go straight to video, and finds Jason Voorhees aboard a cruise ship, heading for the Big Apple...
