Also, we’ve got another Indiana Jones to talk about.

Movie Review - Cocaine Bear

This week on End Credits, we’re just saying “yes” to drugs. Well, we’re saying “yes” to movies about animals doing drugs and then attacking people. If you’re unsure based on this complete lack of subtlety, we’re reviewing Cocaine Bear, which may end up one day being a cult classic, but in case it doesn’t, we’ll suggest a few other movies that are already classics.

Movie Review: Knock At The Cabin

This week on End Credits, we’re back at the end of the world. Again. Our tour guide is M. Night Shyamalan, a man with many hits and many misses and not much in between. So is Knock at the Cabin one of the hits or is one of the misses? We will make that determination, and we will also talk about other entries from the Shyamalan canon that definitely qualify as hits.

This week on End Credits we’re haunted. The spectre of death casts a long shadow on this week’s show even as we review another Christmas movie, but since it’s the end of the year, we have to start taking stock. So we kick off the show with a remembrance of some of the people who aren’t with us anymore, and then we get right into Christmas with a review of Spirited on AppleTV+.

Podcast Appearance: Masochist Movie Club on Halloween III: Season of the Witch

 I had to show up on the Masochist Movie Club this Halloween season to defend the campy beauty that is Season of the Witch, the Halloween movie that famously does not include Michael Myers.

We are back just in time for Halloween. This time around, Jasen picks the movie and he picked the movie in the title. It is an interesting Sci-Fi thriller that has nothing to do with the rest of the franchise.

Listen to the episode here.

In our inevitable Halloween Week show, we will have the inevitable review as we follow up our shows about Halloween, and Halloween Kills with Halloween Ends.

Movie Review: Glorious

This week on End Credits it’s about to get spooky. Yes, we’re about half-a-month early when it comes to the official start of Halloween season, but we’re jumping the proverbial gun with a little end of summer tribute to horror and scary things. We’re talking about some of our favourite (recent) scary movies, and then we will see if Glorious is worthy of that list.

Movie Review: Everything, Everywhere, All At Once

This week on End Credits, we recognize that this is only one version of the show. In the unlimited spectrum of the multiverse, we may have reviewed Everything Everywhere All at Once already, or we may not have reviewed it at all. But we did review it this week, and along with that, we will take a look at other movies dealing with multiple realities.
