Megan and Dave start the show this week by reviewing Jennifer Reeder’s stylized feminist horror film PERPETRATOR (2:50), which follows a teen (Kia McKirnan), with unusual powers pursuing a villain abducting girls at her school. Alicia Silverstone co-stars. Next, we all cover Ellie Foumbi’s thorny thriller OUR FATHER, THE DEVIL (21:18), where a Guinean refugee (Babetida Sadjo) in France has her life turned upside down by the arrival of a charismatic Catholic priest (Souleyman Sy Savane), whom she recognizes as the warlord who slaughtered her family. And, in this week’s Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about the 1986 animated cult classic TRANSFORMERS: THE MOVIE!

V/H/S/94, I’M YOUR MAN, and NIGHTBOOKS on Episode #377
It’s October, so of course we start off this week by reviewing NIGHTBOOKS (2:19), David Yarovesky’s surprisingly enjoyable Netflix horror film, about a boy (Winslow Fegley) who must tell scary stories to survive after he’s imprisoned by a witch (Krysten Ritter). Next, we discuss Maria Schrader’s delightful and layered German sci-fi romance I’M YOUR MAN (21:40), starring Maren Eggert and Dan Stevens (yes, THAT Dan Stevens). Lastly, we cover V/H/S/94 (37:31), the uneven fourth film in the V/H/S horror anthology franchise. And in this week’s Patreon exclusive audio, we talk about the winner of our train movie poll, Sang-ho Yeon’s 2016 horror film TRAIN TO BUSAN!
