We have two movies on the docket this week. First, we review Michael Grandage’s disappointing queer drama MY POLICEMAN (3:26), a story told in flashback about a policeman (Harry Styles) who falls for an art curator (David Dawson) in the 1950s, but marries a woman (Emma Corrin) to conceal his sexuality. Next, we discuss HALLOWEEN ENDS (25:39) the frustrating final film in David Gordon Green’s HALLOWEEN trilogy. Since none of us had seen the second film in the series, HALLOWEEN KILLS, we lead with a review it before delving into the final chapter. And in this week’s Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about Mike Flanagan’s 2013 horror film OCULUS!

SPEAK NO EVIL, DON’T WORRY DARLING, and SALOUM on Episode #426
Megan kicks things off this week by going deep into spoiler territory for Olivia Wilde’s much-discussed thriller DON’T WORRY DARLING (2:33), which features a superb lead performance and striking visuals, but falters in other areas. Next, we all discuss Jean Luc Herbulot’s African horror film SALOUM (15:50), a genre mashup that’s most effective when it’s leaning into its Western elements. Then we cover Christian Tafdrup’s horror movie SPEAK NO EVIL (35:40), a disturbing tale about a Danish family and a Dutch family that we have varied reactions to. And in this week’s Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about Alfred Hitchcock’s 1941 psychological thriller SUSPICION, starring Cary Grant and Joan Fontaine!
