Episode 570: "Materialists," "Best Wishes to All," and "Echo Valley"

This week, Megan took in MATERIALISTS, written and directed by Celine Song. Don't be fooled by the poster: It's not a romcom (though it does have some of those elements); it's much more than that. Megan really loved it. Then Evan and Dave joined her for BEST WISHES TO ALL, a bizarro Japanese horror film about what one family does to maintain it happiness, and whether one of the family members will accept the horrifying realities of that choice or reject them. Then they watched ECHO VALLEY, a thriller in which widowed horsewoman Julianne Moore's junkie daughter Sydney Sweeney makes Moore's already difficult life much, much worse when she shows up with a dead body in her car. Over on Patreon, we watched the 1985 this-kid-is-a-robot! comedy-drama D.A.R.Y.L.
