Episode 495: You CAN Go Home Again
Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy have ten reviews this week including going back into the archive to check out a new version of an infamous epic (Caligula: The Ultimate Cut). Jean Reno gets a special visitor (My Penguin Friend) and a mother must protect her child from a creature and Devon Sawa (Consumed). Eliot Page is reluctant to return home after embracing his identity (Close to You) and Neil Marshall keeps making movies with Charlotte Kirk (Duchess). Elizabeth Banks has internet problems in Hollywood (Skincare) while Halle Berry montages Mark Wahlberg into being a secret agent (The Union). One of the best documentaries of the year from Sundance debuts on Netflix (Daughters) while Awkwafina and John Cena are hunted – but in a funny way – after winning the lottery (Jackpot). Finally, has a 45 year old franchise delivered its best film in decades (Alien: Romulus)? Erik and Steve weigh in with their thoughts.
