MAY: Episode 128: Embracing the Wrong with Ben and Rob from The Every Movie EVER! Podcast

World of Horror with Mom & Mac

WoHos!
This week, Rob and Ben from The Every Movie EVER! podcast joined us to discuss a movie that Means the World of Horror™ to them: MAY from 2002.
Topics discussed: Learning you are autistic and having it be no surprise to family members, podcasting as a mental health check-in, serendipity in finding movies, Netflix' old model for DVD through-the-mail service, watching horror at an inappropriately young age, the manic pixie dreamgirl/boy trope, surrealism and fantasy in film and how nice it is not to know what genre of film we are in.
Disclaimers for spoilers and adult language.
Mille grazie (I can be pretentious, too!) to Ben & Rob, who have a a delightful podcast which you should all check out. You should all also
Remember we love you and DON'T go into the basement!!
PS. I think I really misunderstood what Rob was saying that Blank was Frank from DONNIE DARKO. Also, I think Rob conflated THE CREEPING FLESH with TERROR TRAIN? But in the end, I think we were mostly sympatico through most of this pod, so what's a little muddle among friends?
PPS. I put a video version of the podcast up on our YouTube Channel. You can check it out if you want to see our beautiful faces.
Next on the Quinnisode: FARGO
Next on the main show: Coming-of-age films: THE INNOCENTS from Norway and THE CLOVEHITCH KILLER from the US.
