We've made it to the end of the month! I don't know about "having turned a corner" (hopefully a few days from now that phrase may be more fitting), but there's at least time for Halloween. While heading out to packed horror screenings is not quite as appropriate this year, this week's releases and what I've covered certainly makes up for it to some degree.
This week has a few horror options (Come Play, His House, Bad Hair), along with some solid indies I covered as a part of some virtual film festivals (Eyimofe, Waikiki). We've also reached the end our October horror-themed bonuses on the podcast with our commentary track for Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho. Additionally, there are more podcasts we put together, including our episode covering The Witches, Borat, a director interview, and more. Finally, there are my various essays lists, and new trailers to dig into as well. Enjoy, stay safe out there, and thanks for reading!
