Movie Review - Scream VI
This week on End Credits, we catch up with old friends, and newer old friends. We had to wait a whole year, but we finally get a new entry in the retooled Scream franchise, which means we’re heading to New York (via Montreal) for Scream VI. And sticking to the horror realm, we’re going to play a game and dive deep into horror’s golden age in the 1980s.

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.
