This week, we watched Every Single One of the Children of the Corn Sequels, as well as the Original, and we SURVIVED.
There's not much to add here. Keep an eye out for Arrow Video's shockingly comprehensive blu-ray release, coming out on October 3rd, which features Dollar Baby "Disciples of the Crow" as a bonus feature. However, regarding the rest of the sequels, don't say we didn't warn you.

This week, we discuss Alien: Resurrection, the rapid evolution of big-studio filmmaking, the importance of managing tone and how best to translate the tone of a script to the screen, specifically via casting and the direction of said cast. We also make an earnest plea to armchair YouTube film critics to approach each film from a scholarly angle, as a work to be studied and discussed rather than derided and dismissed in the interest of empty-headed snark and sarcasm.
In our Advanced Studies, we discuss Firefly and Serenity, alongside the career of Joss Whedon this week, and explore the 2nd trilogy of Resident Evil films (Afterlife/Retribution/The Final Chapter) as examples of comparatively successful, idea-driven Euro-helmed sci-fi/adventure films that are, when taken as a whole, surprisingly ambitious.
