If the holidays make you want to run and hide, we’ve got a gift for you; it’s isolation horror and the return of Nic Cage!
THIS EPISODE: “THE RITUAL” (2017) AND “PIG” (2021)
It’s our last official episode of 2021, and we’re talking isolation horror. After this week’s barn burner, both Stephanie and Casey are gonna need some isolation — especially from each other! Tune in to hear what happens when Steph dares to pick another Nic Cage movie. This one happens to be critically acclaimed. But can Casey find it in his black heart to appreciate it? You’ll just have to listen to find out as we talk about The Ritual (Casey’s pick) and Pig (Steph’s pick).
