THEYRE ALL POSTING I CANT HANDLE THIS

[spookytuesdaypod]

spooky tuesday is a (now not so new!) podcast where we’re breaking down all of our favorite slashers, thrillers, monster movies and black comedies on the new scariest day of the week.

hello, we’d like to order one black comedy done well, please. this week, the menu (2022) is what’s on the menu for spooky tuesday, and we’re breaking down the stunt casting that might’ve been, the cannibalism that should’ve been, and the iconic line-reading of the word “tortillas” that definitely was. in a film all about exactly what ingredients are needed to make real art, it’s clear that this project has a true love for creation baked in.

give spooky tuesday a listen on apple podcasts, spotify, iheart radio, or stitcher

Would you spend $1,250 for a meal? Please say no, because after seeing The Menu, we’re convinced that no good could come from it. But apparently a whole lotta good can come from putting Ralph Fiennes, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Nicholas Hoult together. A recipe for success!

The Menu

Movies watched in 2023

The Menu (2022, USA)

Director: Mark Mylod

Writers: Seth Reiss & Will Tracy

Mini-review:

I expected The Menu to be a twisty but fairly straightforward thriller comedy, but what I got was a completely different experience that managed to truly surprise me. For starters, the movie is very unsettling almost from the very first scene, and that feeling keeps gnawing at you more and more as it goes on. The score, the acting and the cinematography keep you on your toes and do a great job at making sure the viewer knows something is definitely not right. The whole thing just feels so surreal, almost like some sort of fever dream, which is something I didn't expect at all based on the one trailer I had watched. All of that is put in service of the movie's themes, which might be pretty obvious, but also interesting and necessary. I won't say anything else about them, though, cause I think it's best to know as little as possible before watching this movie. Anyway, The Menu is a pretty solid and surprising black comedy/thriller.

Movie theater is mostly empty. Perfect time to squeeze in a double feature which means I’m…

The Menu (2022)

A few weeks ago, YouTube recommended a recent video essay for me entitled “rage & revenge: the birth of a new genre” [capitalization sic], created by Rowan Ellis. Apparently, it’s now a major part of The Discourse to consider recent films about women taking revenge as a genre unto itself, using the famous “good for her” quote from Lucille Bluth as its title.  I’m not sure about the need for this…
