Episode 326: Zombies, sharksploitation, and serial killers

Mike Flanagan is one of the best horror directors out there. This week we have a lot to say about him - and not all of it is good. We talk about the upcoming Carrie series and what it means for his Exorcist movie. We also talk about how we do not care about the upcoming The Life of Chuck. We are interested to see what Blumhouse wants to do with the Saw franchise though.It has been a while since we have covered a horror movie out of Mexico. Yeah, we do not want to have anything to do with pandemic movies. And zombie flicks are not our favorite movies. And the two hour runtime for Parvulos had us both worried. Thankfully, it not only proved our fears wrong; it may well be one of the best films we have covered this year.There are a lot of familiar tropes here, but it weaves them all together with strong writing and great characters. It hits all of the emotional beats it aims for, has some good gore, and is even able to overcome a gratuitous dog violence moment. This is a must watch for any fan of horror or strong storytelling.Dangerous Animals is also successful, though it does things completely differently. It is over the top, ridiculous, and terrifying. A sharksploitation serial killer movie sounds like it would be played for laughs, but this movie is dead serious - and better for it. One of the most exciting horror movies we have covered in a long time. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.
