For episode 59 the boys are back in the studio to review what feels like a rare treat, a standalone horror film in 2021. Antlers is the latest film from acclaimed director of Crazy Heart, Black Mass and Hostiles, Scott Cooper.
Despite a near evenly split critical response to the film, we both found the film to be entertaining, thoroughly well acted and captivating for the entirety of its hour and 39 minute run time. Great setup and lore. Check. Great practicals. Check. Minimal but effective CGI. Check. Are critics reviewing this film more harshly because of the excellence of some of Scooper's prior work? Do they feel the horror genre is just out of his depth? To be honest we just don't understand the negative response to this movie and we're v curious for your thoughts on this one.
Crack open a couple of cold ones with us, leave your review for this film in the comments and let us know what you think we should review next.
