Episode 344: Lore Hounds: 'It: Welcome to Derry' (2025)/ 'Hell House LLC: Lineage' (2025)

Is the first week of November the slowest time of the movie year? It is if you are a genre fan. We do have a little bit of news. Osgood Perkins excites us while John Carpenter disappoints us. There is also an important change to your Halloween viewing schedule. Plus, a new horror streaming channel that seems to be catering to fans.Before the first episode premiered, Welcome to Derry had taken us on a wild ride. When we first heard about it, we were incredibly excited. There are so many excellent stories in the sourced material that would make for great television. And who knows what original ideas the writers could come up with?Then we saw the first trailer.We went into the show fearing the worst. Welcome to Derry may not have been as bad as we feared, but it definitely was not very good. From bad CGI to completely ignoring what the source material is about, we talk about our (many) gripes. Even the things that were done right had a ring or wrong around them.Hell House LLC was a straightforward found footage horror movie. It did not do anything revolutionary, but it was a good time. Its sequels have expanded on the lore in ways that were not needed. The latest installment puts on full display how the original movie was never intended to be a series.Hell House LLC: Lineage is not for newcomers. It is not for casual fans. It is not even for people who have seen all of the installments and enjoyed them. This movie is strictly for those who know the series in and out. You need to have an intimate working knowledge of these movies to get anything out of the latest one. But at least the change from first person to traditional narrative was a good idea. Right?
