The Midsommar Special (From The Archives)

We’re heading back into the daylight nightmare to revisit grief, cults, questionable relationships, and one of the most uncomfortable group holidays ever committed to film. If you missed them first time, now’s your chance. If you’ve heard them already, you probably need the closure.Originally released 24/6/21Not that anybody asked but this week we hollowed out our bears and booked our flights to Stockholm because we are finally diving deep into Ari Aster's folk horror masterpiece Midsommar. You may recognise Midsommar from where we have recommended it every single episode, and it's now time for us to put our money where our mouth is. The first half an hour of this episode is spoiler free and our Top 3 list this week delves into "Moments From Midsommar That Stuck With Us" in an attempt to explain why we love the film so much and keep recommending it to you all. Expect Ariana Grande, Brazilian Football Legend Pele and 2 Mid 2 Sommar in Space.For a film that deals with grief as much as Midsommar does we obviously name dropped GriefCast - a podcast that has helped both of our hosts - you can find out more about it hereYou can find the opening mural Ian mentions hereYou can find the trailers for our choices, and other things referenced, on this youtube playlist.Become a friend of the podcast on Patreon and get bonus episodes and swagBuy merch over at TeepublicFollow us on InstagramFollow us on ThreadsFollow us on TikTok Hosted on Acast.
