Episode 306: Our favorite movies of 2024

Chances are that nothing from the Poohniverse will be in our favorite movies of any year. But that will not stop us from talking about it every chance we get. Blood and Honey may have burned us so badly we have not even considered watching another entry, but maybe the combined powers of the twisted versions of Peter Pan, Tigger, and Mary Poppins will be enough to save the burgeoning franchise.Until Dawn is the flip side. It is a creative video game that brings audiences into its world better than some of the horror movies it is influenced by. The only surprise is that it took this long to turn it into a movie. Early test screenings have been positive. Unless you ever played the video game. There were a lot of great genre releases in 2024. The Substance has rightfully received the lion’s share of attention. Along with the fantastic performances from Moore and Margaret Qualley, it has a great story and fantastic gore. It is not just one of the best horror movies of the year; it can stand up to anything that can out during the year. Independent horror had a record setting year. Late Night With the Devil became the biggest release in the history of IFC. It is a unique take on found footage and has some of the most memorable moments of the year. Thanks in part to its clever marketing campaign, Longlegs became a surprise box office hit. We talk about why it still resonates with us and what it means to genre cinema in general.Some of the best horror films of the year flew under the radar. Stopmotion featured some of the best storytelling of the year, Realm of Satan is a unique look at Satanists, and Falling Stars is a modern folk horror tale that is relatable and creepy. We have a lot to talk about on this week’s show. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network. Morbidly Beautiful is your one stop shop for all your horror needs.
