Sean cannot stop bringing up the wrong Ferguson in this review of Life (2017) with Sarah from Weird Horizon.
My Guest: Sarah hosts the 'Weird Horizon' podcast, which contains "Discussions on the spooky and the esoteric, the counter-cultural and the just plain weird".
Check it out here: https://anchor.fm/weirdhorizon
Discussion Points:
-The boring DVD cover description of this film.
-Sarah zones out listening to Sean talk.
-Sean jumps out 4 minutes in, for very 'authentic podcasting' reasons.
-THAT hand scene.
-Calvin gets really grouchy if you interrupt his sleep.
-Sarah and Sean's predilection for 'deliciously bleak' films.
-The character names aren't important, don't worry about them.
-Rebecca Ferguson in all her restrained glory (restrained as in her acting style).
-Sarah and Sean use lots of big words.
Raised Questions:
-Is 'Life in Zero G' a good name for a band?
-Why do reviewers quote "This film meets this film"?
-Did this film come along at a time when there was too many Space-based films?
-Is Calvin just a homicidal Flubber?
-Would you listen to 'Northern Audio Description'?
-Why didn't Sean ask Bill from Bill Reads Bad Reviews to review this?
-Does CGI actually enhance this film?
-Are humans getting too big for their britches?
-Would you buy a film described as 'Alien meets Chicken Run' or 'Saw meets Driving Miss Daisy'?
-Why did Sarah have to go THERE?
Quotes of the episode:
"This is bleak and horrible, and there's death. Sarah will like this".
