Do We Like Movies?

Annabelle: Creation (2017) / Annabelle Comes Home (2019)

This week is a double feature! We wrap up our Conjuring Extended Universe mini series with a discussion on the surprisingly good Annabelle prequel, and finally discuss the reason this series exists: The Annabelle Movie who's plot synopsis sounds like a Disney Channel Original Halloween Movie.

Annabelle (2014)

This week we start our Annabelle mini-series with the 2014 follow up to the original Conjuring movie. In this film we follow young parents John and Mia as they deal with all the stress of expected parenthood. As if that wasn't enough, John gifts Mia a haunted doll that will soon terrorize the new family.

In The Heights (2021)

The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021)

This week we are chat about the latest chapter in The Conjuring Franchise. In this episode we talk a bit about the real Arne Cheyenne Johnson (aka "The Devil Made Me Do It") case and how it differs from the film. Please join us for our last epsidoe before our 2 week hiatus!

The Dark Knight (2008)

For Episode 100 we review Christopher Nolan's Comic Book masterpiece that captures our Post 9/11 anxiety like no other film of the 00s. After his triumph over Ra's Al Guhl and The League of Shadows, Batman joins forces with Gotham City Police Lt. Jim Gordon, and District Attorney Harvey Dent to rid the city of organized crime once and for all. What they don't plan for is the ultimate wildcard, The Joker, played in an Academy Award winning final performance by Heath Ledger.

Jackie Brown (1997)

We are back in Tarantino world! This week we review his 1997 film Jackie Brown, which takes the style of 70s Blacksploitation and mixes it with the novel "Rum Punch" by Elmore Leonard. When a flight attendant played by the legendary Pam Grier is caught trying to smuggle money into the United States from Mexico, she is left with two choices, either go to jail, or cooperate with ATF agents to catch her gun running boss played by Samuel L. Jackson. With the help of her love interest, a bail bondsman played by Robert Forester, Jackie decides that she is going play both sides against each other and try to make off with the money herself.

The Lost Boys (1987)

Dogma (1999)

This week we are diving into Kevin Smith's incredibly hard to procure 1999 film, Dogma. This movie follows a woman who has become disillusioned with her religion, and is selected to help save existence from being destroyed by mischievous angels. This film features an all star 90s lineup that includes Jay and Silent Bob, Chris Rock, Selma Hayek, Ben Affleck, and Matt Damon. 

Mortal Kombat (2021)

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (1997)

Remember how the first movie in this series was successful because it adapted much of the cool stuff you liked from the Video game? Well that's all gone now. Get ready to "Batman & Robin" up Mortal Kombat and send this franchise into hiding for 2 decades.

This week's movie competes with The Room and New Years Evil for worst film in the history of this show. Enjoy!
