We take a mid-year look at the best of 2021 so far and conclude Pride Month with a look at the little-known queer horror film “Lyle”.
EPISODE SUMMARY
As Blake put it last week, we have been pretty lucky here. It was a little hard to come up with the worst movies of the year. But it took no time at all to think of the best. This week, we talk about the movies we enjoyed most during the first half of 2021. We also talk about queer horror movie Lyle.
ABOUT THIS EPISODE (125):
Stephen King has had so much of his work adapted that he is bound to have a few bad ones. The original Pet Semetary is one of King’s most beloved works. The 2019 remake? Not so much. Still, it is getting a follow up. Are we interested? Plus, we revisit (?) Disappointment Blvd.
Last week, we talked about the real stinkers the first half of the year presented us. On this episode, we discuss the stuff we loved the most. Powerful endings, having your patience tested, and kangaroo westerns are just some of the things we get into.
June is Pride Month, and we wanted to review a queer horror movie that may have flown under the radar. But is that a good thing? We debate the importance of having closure, how an ending can ruin a movie, and how much we hate Michael Che.
