13. Brought to You by the Phrase "Horror's Versatility"

Spooky season has begun, and so must our chapter on horror. We go over our personal history of horror movies, from movie going experiences, to movies and scenes that terrified us. We also review our favorite horror movies before venturing into just how versatile the horror film can be. This episode also includes our first interactive element, as our Instagram page of the same title is up. We will record a bonus episode based on which genre commenters ask for the most. Satire Comedy Fantasy Love/Romance Drama Musical Sci Fi Tragedy Crime/Thriller Action Disaster Experimental Slasher Social Commentary Foreign

14. Brought to You by Shaun of The Dead

A familiar zombie classic is the first movie in the Horror's Versatility chapter of the podcast. The 2004 film by Edgar Wright deserves an in depth look at all the callbacks, foreshadowing, characterization, and symbolism. Shaun of The Dead serves as the comedy viewing when relating to the versatility of horror as discussed in Episode 13.

15. Brought to You by The Wolf of Snow Hollow

The second movie in the Horror's Versatility chapter comes from 2020's The Wolf of Snow Hollow, written, directed, and starring Jim Cummings. This represents horror's reach into the crime/thriller genre (and maybe more?). The guys talk about the movie's effectiveness as genre, and how effective watching with different lenses is. We also individually break down what we thought the theme was, pulling from specific examples from the movie. Different perspectives, different perceptions.

16. Brought to You by Skinamarink

The guys rely on their reactions and feelings to get through this analysis of the 2022 movie Skinamarink. This is the Experimental portion of the Horror Versatility chapter, as chosen by Tin Man and KMax. Mr Vozly relates the movie to an art installation or video art rather than a traditional movie. As always we discuss our initial reactions, but we also discuss the ideas of jump scare vs dread vs discomfort with examples from this movie. We work together this time to piece together our interpretations of the theme.

17. Brought to You by Alien

The gang tackles Ridley Scott's 1979 classic Alien. The podcast's audience had a chance to vote on what genre the last movie would come from in our chapter on Horror's Versatility. Sci Fi was chosen, and of course, it had to be Alien. We discuss our experience with the franchise, what kind of lens we used during this viewing, our favorite scenes, the variety of genre from each franchise entry, Ripley, and our perception of the movie's theme. Disclaimer: When finding the movie's theme, the topic of sexual abuse is discussed.

18. Brought to You by the Phrase "Upon Further Review"

Mr Vozly feels the country would be more civil if people would exercise their skills of seeing things from other perspectives. We see if that translates to movies we may have had bad impressions of. Tin Man and KMax join as we discuss 3 topics: Movies we STILL have bad impressions of, movies of which our initial negative reactions have changed, and movies ABOUT changing perspectives. Spoilers for Longlegs, Indiana Jones and the Temple of the Crystal Skull, Love Actually, Mamma Mia, Snake Eyes, A Christmas Carol, It's a Wonderful Life, Pocahontas, 21 Jump Street, High Fidelity, Meet the Spartans, Jurassic Park 3, Zodiac, Halloween III, and anything Kevin Smith.

19. Brought to You by Babe

The search for TinMan's heart continues as the gang talks about the 1995 movie Babe. We return to having differing thoughts on the movie assignment, and discuss these views. We also review our favorite scenes, our interpretation of the central theme, and just how influential a pig is within this story.

20. Brought to You by Mamma Mia!

Three dads try to improve their lowly views of Mamma Mia! in the spirit of this chapter theme of "Upon Further Review." Spoiler alert, they do. They also give their views of the movie as fathers and its messages about fatherhood. There's also a brief bonus inclusion of Love Actually, as that movie was also nominated to be reviewed in "Upon Further Review."

21. Brought to You by The Question "What is a Christmas Movie?"

Friendships are tested, defenses are raised, criteria is made, and the debate is set. Mr Vozly, KMax and Tin Man discuss what a Christmas movie is. This includes the age old question; is Die Hard a Christmas Movie? Other titles questioned include Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, Lethal Weapon, Gremlins, Frosty the Snowman, Love Actually, Home Alone 2, Nightmare Before Christmas, and many others.

22. Brought to You by Children of Men

The first of three movies presented in the "What is a Christmas Movie?" chapter. Mr Vozly's choice- Children of Men. Mr Vozly attempts to choose a movie that challenges us, but also caters to what the other speakers enjoy in a movie, AND speaks to what we hold dear in the spirit of Christmas. The boys will decide whether he was successful. Discussion includes comparison to O Holy Night, symbolism, names and dialogue, and HOPE.
