MOVIE DISCUSSION:
Kathryn joins Melvin to talk a surprise horror hit of 2026, undertone! This spooky flick has been helmed "the scariest movie you'll ever hear" by Collider, but is that actually true? Also, what's with all the catholic imagery? And does everything gel well together, or would this have been better as a short-film?
Topics:
- Editor's Note: No Patreon Exclusive discussion! But, I do intend to trim this episode down from its original 1:30:31 length, so if you want to hear the UNCUT version, tune in on Patreon here!
- Kathryn, "I bet you this movie was written and directed by a man."
- Melvin, "Well, there's a really good short film in there."
- There's a lot in undertone, but a lot of it is done much better in other movies, so Melvin lists a few and explains how.
- Pacing, and the film's sense of time, is really off.
- Kathryn enjoyed Nina Kiri's performance, and is curious to see what she does next after otherwise carrying this film on her own.
- As a podcasting hobbyist, Melvin complains about how undertone does podcasting.
- Is the movie dumb? Discuss.
- What does the antagonistic force in undertone have to do with sound?
- Melvin, "There's better movies out there. Watch those instead!"
- Talking about the ending... I guess...
