The Howling captures the most interesting parts of werewolf mythology: the tension between the savage and the sophisticated, and whether embracing either is desirable—or even good. It asks compelling questions about the nature of man and beast while sinking its claws into the ’70s-era “look inward” self-help guru mentality. The script is tight, the effects are fantastic, and the acting is solid. A few things about the Colony (or, as we call it, Werewolf Summer Camp) don’t quite add up, but otherwise, the film checks all the boxes to deliver a genre staple and one of the best werewolf films to date.

Halloween 4 is not going to win any awards, but it has a lot more going for it than you may think. Is Loomis's egg-faced make-up bad? Yes. Is the ending with Jamie and the scissors a bit off? Again, yes. Is Myer's mask terrible? Most certainly, yes! However, this film invoked atmosphere, is directed well, and is excellent at continuing (and returning) Michael Myers to the franchise! Grab something warm to drink, throw it on, and enjoy the ride! This podcast episode - if I may be so bold - was an incredibly fun and hilarious discussion by Dean, Scott, and Brian.

10 Cloverfield Lane starts off with an excellent lesson in visual storytelling. We can piece together what is happening with minimal dialogue. The ability to dial up the tension while keeping the audience guessing gives us an excellent window into what our main character, Michelle, may be thinking without her needing to spew it out with bad dialogue. The tipping point, and the moment that could stretch credulity, is when Emmett and Michelle realize the truth about Howard, and the major reveal at the end has divided audiences since it's release. We get into all of it and more. Do not miss this episode of The Lost Drive-In.
