Episode 170: Mommy Issues Month: 'The Dark and the Wicked' (2020)/'Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone' (2022)
from Adventures in Movies! · host Danny Martinez/Blake Heath/Nathaniel Muir
The Cannes Film Festival may be the epitome of overindulgence. The outfits rival anything seen at the Met Gala while the setting is one of the most fabulous in the world. Fortnite is a multiplayer video game played by kids. So, what brought the two together? We talk about one of the strangest crossovers in years.Every time we review a movie, we try to go in with zero expectations. That does not stop us from forming initial impressions, however. Green Ghost and the Masters of the Stone is a movie about a car salesman written by and starring... a car salesman. Charlie is down on his luck, but has a strong support system. He also learns that he has superpowers that can save the world.We were interested in the movie because of its ties to El Paso and did not hesitate to watch it. Based on the premise, we each went in with a very specific idea of what we were going to see. All of us were surprised, but is that a good thing. We also discuss the passion put in the movie and the what seems to be a creepy crush the hero has on his sister.The Dark and the Wicked is something of a return to form for us. The intimate horror film about a pair of siblings up against a sinister force is worlds away from the over the top fare we have recently featured. Bryan Bertino has an impressive pedigree and his knowledge of the genre is on full display. But are there too many tropes and is the twist too easy to spot?Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

What this episode covers
Over the past few years, there have been some occasions where an episode will feature two movies that are a direct contrast to each other. This episode may be the most glaring example. We talk about a ground horror movie from a familiar name and a superhero movie written by and starring a car salesman. Plus, the glitz and glamour of the French Riviera meets teenaged gamers.
