Mike discusses two new horror films, 'Hokum' and 'Obsession', while Keir is away.

It's a Filmographers first: Mike is flying solo! Keir is away on writer business, but Mike saw two new horror releases that he's dying to discuss: Damian McCarthy's Hokum and Curry Barker's Obsession. Mike breaks down what works about each of these movies and what's a bunch of, well...hokum. Like what we do here on the Filmographers? Then please consider joining our Patreon!
