Ep. 49 Hereditary (feat. Lucy from Wine and Crime)

This is a big one! Not only in length but in the history of Horror, Cats, and Witch hats as we had the absolute pleasure to host Lucy from the incredible true crime and comedy podcast, Wine and Crime (available where you listen https://wineandcrimepodcast.com/ and @wineandcrimepod).

 

She chose Hereditary as our featured Halloween film and what a great pick it was! In typical Ari Aster fashion the cup over-floweth with easter eggs and historical details. Don't worry, we talk about most if not all of them. 

 

Send us your next movie recommendation, your thoughts on this film, or cat photos and it may get featured on the next episode!
