Episode 043: The Righteous (2021)

Genre Exposure: A Film Podcast

In this episode, Jason and Dustin band together to check out another listener episode while Michael goes on temporary hiatus. Join us in wishing him all the best and await his return later before the end of the year. This time, we're looking at Mark O'Brien's powerful art house horror flick The Righteous shot in gorgeously stark black and white. Jason celebrates the classical style of the film. Meanwhile, Dustin goes down the rabbit hole to tackle the film's religious horror angle. Before all that, we go on a spree, talking about some recent new horror flicks we've enjoyed. And so much more!

Special thanks to Collin for suggesting we check this one out. Got a movie you champion? A hidden gem you think needs more love? Just want to see more discussion on a particular film? We want to check out the movies you suggest to us. Write in at [e-mail] or contact us on your favorite form of social media and shoot us a movie recommendation.
