SE02EP07: Theater Camp (2023)

A film that dares to ask the question: What if Santa Claus and his operations ran a bit more like the British monarchy? As it turns out, the answer is remarkably well! Except when it doesn't, in the smallest possible way. But don't worry, heroes are sometimes named Arthur!

Sure, we all know what Christmas would be like in New York and Chicago and probably LA, but the real burning question is what would Christmas be like in Connecticut?  Well assuming you've got a very posh farm and a bunch of people all lying to each other or themselves, then this film will let you know!

A question to kick of the BWBFC holiday season: did you ever wonder what it would be like if Santa was a Russian viking? Well if so, this movie might be for you!  But was it for us?

We end the November films about dysfunctional families on a high note...and by high note I mean at least the one family member dies at the start of the film, so we only have to witness the aftermath this time.  Tune in to see if we liked what we had to witness.

Halfway through the films for November and it's another one about families and death.  Although really more dying in this case.  Just how depressing is this lineup making us here at the Better With Booze Film Club Podcast?  Well you'll have to tune in to find out.

It's another family comedy(?) drama featuring a dying parent and a couple of weird kids.  I know what you're thinking.  How many of these films can you possibly do for the podcast?  Well I'm going to guess at least two more.

Wes Anderson films.  They're a bit like marmite.  You either love them or you hate them.  And they almost always leave a weird taste in your mouth.  But is that enough for us to withhold a recommendation this week?  Tune in to find out!

Concluding our October spooooooky month of films, we have the 1968 classic Hammer Horror film The Devil Rides Out, starring one half of everyone's favorite horror duo: Christopher Lee!  Evidently Peter Cushing was away on holiday or something? Don't know.  Anyway, here's our review!

Are you feeling down about the tragic death of your husband and daughter in a car accident that left you yourself in a coma? Then the tourism bureau of North Carolina has the solution for you! Try spelunking in one of our many unexplored, dangerously unmarked caves! There's a 1 in 6 chance that you'll survived! And we definitely don't have a race of ancient humanoid creatures that live underground! So Esse Quam Videri your way over here today!

You know for as cliché a horror trope as a cabin in the woods is, I'm amazed it took until 2011 for someone to make a horror film called A Cabin In the Woods.  But was it worth the wait? Tune in and hear what we think!
