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.
ABOUT THIS PODCAST:
Every week AIPT Movie Editor Nathaniel Muir and his cinema partner in crime Blake Heath discuss indie and genre movies you have have never heard of, the ones you cannot hear enough about, and the ones you never want to hear about again.
Episode 370: Mid year recap
Time moves more quickly now than it ever has. It was not that long ago that we were talking about a new show executive produced by the Duffer brothers. About a month later, it is one and done. As someone once reminded us, we are just two guys who watch movies. Production budgets and domestic grosses are only a passing interest to us. Still, there are some things that catch our attention. Were we right to say that Michael would get to $1 billion? And what does the future hold for Obsession?
There was a major change to our humble little podcast this year. We decided it would be in our best interests to be a little more focused. To that end, we went to just covering one movie each show. Despite this, we still managed to cover twenty-three movies over seventeen episodes. And twenty of them were released in 2026.
So, what do we have to talk about? And will we get as worked up as we did last week? The horrors of high school, zombies, musicals, buff nuns, and grindhouse adjacent fun. It may not all have been good, but everything left some sort of impression on us.
