Hell Is Other People

Welcome back to "Sure Look, Sure Listen," Join us as we dive into the trailers and reviews of some of the most anticipated horror films and shows of the season. First up, we discuss the spine-chilling trailer for "Smile 2." This sequel promises even more terrifying smiles, this time targeting the pop sensation Lady Gaga. We share our thoughts on the creep factor and what makes a simple smile so unsettling. Next, we take a look at "The Beast Within" starring Kit Harington and James Cosmo. This domestic horror thriller blurs the lines between supernatural terror and real-life fears. Is it a metaphor for domestic abuse, or something even darker? We also delve into the trailer for Robert Eggers' "Nosferatu." With a stellar cast including Bill Skarsgård and Nicholas Hoult, this reimagining of the classic vampire tale promises to strip away any romanticism and plunge us into pure, eerie horror. In "The Front Room," Brandy makes a return to the screen in this A24 horror film about the unsettling dynamics of family and the intrusion of a terrifying mother-in-law. We discuss the Catholic imagery and the psychological horror elements that make this a must-watch. Then, we review "The Writer #1," a new comic from Dark Horse Comics co-written by Josh Gad. Mixing Jewish folklore with Lovecraftian horror, this comic offers a a bizarre and somewhat tone-deaf take on the supernatural genre. For our TV segment, we break down "The Boys" Season 4, Episode 4. From Homelander's escalating menace to the gritty, real-world political allegories, we analyse what makes this episode stand out and why it’s causing such a stir among fans. Lastly, we explore the concept of "Hell is Other People" in horror. From "Smile" to "The Front Room," we discuss how mundane horrors and the terror of everyday relationships are portrayed in modern horror media.
