About this episode

The episode discusses the new A24 horror film 'Backrooms', Nate Bargatze's feature debut 'The Breadwinner', and the reboot of Atom Egoyan's 'Exotica'.

The new A24 horror film is "Backrooms," and it's a huge hit AND made by a 20-year-old. Is it good? We discuss. We also dig into Nate Bargatze's feature debut "The Breadwinner." Then, in our Reboot segment, we talk about Atom Egoyan's 1994 hit "Exotica." Thanks to Dylan Mayer and My Friend Mary, both of which are wonderful, for the music. We hope you enjoy.
