Most Messed Up 1970's Movie Draft
It was one of the most messed up times in modern history... Vietnam, Watergate and a tidal wave of transgressive cinema that said, "I'm not gonna take it anymore!" Griffey, Sam, Heath and Dandino try on their bellbottoms and battle over the MOST messed up movies of the 1970s! From indisputable classics like Jaws and Alien to sneaky favorites like The Wicker Man, this decade basically invented the modern horror film (hello, Halloween). We love the smell of a movie draft in the morning... Smells like victory. Who drafted the best team? Who reached too early? And which movie got completely robbed?

Someone Like You
Today Dandino gifts Griffey a movie that has aged like Old Cow Milk on a hot summer day, Someone Like You. They dig into the film's Old Cow Theorum of modern relationships, the insane decisions Ashley Judd must suffer from the scipt, and whether saddling up to a man like Hugh Jackman is bound to end in a Bronco Busting. This is an odd film that begs the question, WHY? so many times it must be seen. Synopsis: After being jilted by her boyfriend, a talk show talent scout writes a column on the relationship habits of men which gains her national fame. Starring: Ashley Judd, Greg Kinnear, Hugh Jackman, Marisa Tomei, Ellen Barkin Directed by Tony Goldwyn Youtube: https://youtu.be/pHz7UUanUmY Help us make our first feature length Messed Up Movie: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/mr-creamjean-s-hidey-hole-horror-comedy-movie#/ Support the show on the Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/messedupmoviespod

Backrooms
Get lost in the corridors of the most surreal blockbuster...ever? This New Movie Monday, we are reviewing the A24 sensation Backrooms, based on the totemic YouTube series of the same name. Of course, we can't cover Backrooms without a lengthy discussion about this cultural moment in horror cinema, off the heels of Curry Barker's breakout hit Obsession. Griffey, Heath and Sam think they have a good handle on what it all means and make the argument that the film should've been even MORE abstract. We do our best to not get lost in the maze of this counfounding film while praising the performance of Chiwetel Ejiofor, the novel vision of director Kane Parsons and, of course, the most messed up moment in the movie. Synopsis: After a therapist's patient disappears into a dimension beyond reality, she must venture into the unknown to save him. Director: Kane Parsons Starring: Chiwetel Ejiofor, Renate Reinsve and Mark Duplass

Passenger

We first reviewed this hyped up trailer months ago and now that Passenger has finally arrived, is it worth the ride?

Synopsis: After a young couple witnesses a gruesome highway accident, they soon realize they did not leave the crash scene alone, as a demonic presence called the Passenger won't stop until it claims them both.
