Kathryn joins Melvin to discuss our latest Patreon-picked movie, When Evil Lurks! This Argentinian horror flick made the rounds in 2023, catching a lot of attention and exploding in popularity once it landed on Shudder. It's also a combination of grounded & crazy! The two get into it all!
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 20-minutes discussing the trailer for Jurassic World: Rebirth, Gareth Edwards' upcoming Summer blockbuster, and how it might be doing away with Trevorrow's... lackluster style and embrace being a horror-filled island adventure! (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- When Melvin received the push-notification that a Patreon Supporter had submitted When Evil Lurks for February's Patreon Pick, he audibly reacted. It's a visceral film, and the two talk about that for a bit.
- Is it weird to like a movie that's so pointedly miserable?
- Kathryn, "This movie just evoked in me a lot of 'social sadness'.".
- The film isn't drawing attention to it, but virtually every character within the film exists in a state of marginalization.
- When Evil Lurks has conviction. It trusts what it's doing, and it trusts you'll understand it.
- It's not as vicious as Terrifier 2, but the violence here is pretty nuts.
- "Evil loves children. And children love evil."
- Discussing those two crazy shocking scenes in the film. You know the ones.
- When a system fails, the marginalized are the first to suffer.
- Discussing the ending and how it left us.
