Episode 448: It’s Pronounced Frankenshit

Seven new films get reviews from Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy this week. They include a new mistaken identity rom-com with Camila Mendes (Upgraded) and another story of a novelist plunged into a murderous plot (Ghostwritten). A teenage girl comes of age in the time of Terry Schiavo (Suncoast) while a trio of friends discover the harsher realities of growing up while on vacation in an award-winner from Cannes (How To Have Sex). Also for the second week in a row there is a Wim Wenders film, this time up for an Oscar (Perfect Days). A group of ancient nomads encounter an evil force (Out of Darkness) while our reviews are forced to encounter the latest and, perhaps, worst screenplay from Oscar-winner Diablo Cody (Lisa Frankenstein).   0:00 - Intro 1:49 - Upgraded 14:40 - Ghostwritten 19:48 - Suncoast 30:30 - Perfect Days 39:33 - How To Have Sex 49:46 - Out of Darkness 55:23 - Lisa Frankenstein 1:08:41 - Outro This is a public episode.
