We discuss a Tribeca standout and look back on the good, the bad, and the “Soft and Quiet” of 2023’s cinematic offerings so far.
Soft & Quiet
Before we talk about movies, we talk about the passing of author Corman McCarthy. One of the best American writers of all time, McCarthy’s influence on cinema cannot be overstated. He was unconventional, but he was a true credit to American literature.
Then it’s on to horror movie news.
Remember when Fede Alvarez was a good director? A lot of people seem to since, whenever they talk about him, they are sure to mention 2013’s Evil Dead. That was a decade ago, and he has not done anything worthwhile since. This is just part of the reason his upcoming Alien remake has us worried.
Those aren’t the only complaints we had about upcoming movies. Disney recently revealed some changes to their upcoming releases, and it was wild, to say the least. Unsure of what you want to watch in 2031? Looking forward to Blade? Can’t wait to see Rey’s next adventure in the new Star Wars movie? You better have patience.
Then it’s on to our featured movie review.
You’ll Never Find Me
We only reviewed one movie this week, but it is one of the most memorable of the year.
You’ll Never Find Me is a World Premiere from Tribeca that is unafraid to take risks. Lots and lots of risks. Methodical pacing leading to a wild ending, characters you don’t know what to think of, and tomato soup all play a big role in this Australian horror movie.
Our favorite episodes are the ones where we get to go back and recap previous episodes. And the midway point of the year is a great time to look back on the movies we liked the most, could not stand, and left us wanting more. You will be surprised by some of our picks.
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT:
Last week, we talked about Hollywood Dreams and Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story, a look at one of the true icons of genre cinema. There is more to Robert Englund than Freddy Krueger, and this documentary covers it all.

Episode 373: ‘Mockbuster’ (2026)
We have spent years talking about how important The Blair Witch Project is. We discuss the pros and cons of the latest reimagining of the iconic found footage classic. And we are definitely interested. Plus, the latest internet horror fad that Hollywood wants to adapt into a movie. And while it does seem a little silly to us, they do have a strong director attached to it.
The Asylum has been putting out grade-A quality B movies for a long time. Sharknado may be their most well-known, but their specialty are mockbusters like Tomb Invader and Top Gunner. We could not wait to take a look at their inner workings.
Mockbuster does much more than that. Sure, there is plenty of footage from The Asylum library. And yes, all of it is amazing. The interviews with the people at the top of the company are also great. They know the score and are funny, entertaining, and informative.
But it is the documentary’s subject that is the beating heart of the film. Anthony Frith is one of the most charming people we have ever seen and we enjoyed watching his journey. Mockbuster ended up being an unexpected feel-good watch thanks to Frith and all of the incredibly supportive people featured.
On top of all that, we get to see how a movie from The Asylum gets made!
