Episode 353: Missing You, Darling

Sundance is on the horizon but Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy are still checking in with nine movies you can see right now; one of them from last year’s Sundance (When You Finish Saving The World) and another from ten years ago finally making its debut (Virtually Heroes). Steve catches up with Jafar Panahi’s latest (No Bears) and Erik watched a documentary about the Laemmle family business from home (Only In Theaters). There’s a string of horror films involving children including a party gone wrong (Kids vs. Aliens) and a trip to a cave gone even worse (There’s Something Wrong With The Children). We even have a comic horror tale from wunderkind Emily Hagins (Sorry About The Demon). Anna Kendrick gives one of her best performances in a real world horror story about mental abuse (Alice, Darling) and the team from Searching scour the web again for clues about another disappearance (Missing). 0:00 - Intro 1:21 - When You Finish Saving The World 8:14 - Virtually Heroes  14:58 - No Bears 22:01 - Only In Theaters 30:28 - Kids vs. Aliens 41:29 - There's Something Wrong With The Children 50:07 - Sorry About The Demon 1:00:14 - Alice, Darling 1:10:49 - Missing 1:23:00 - Outro This is a public episode.
