The Media Morgue

Author: Justin Winley, Daniel Mette, Zack Palomo, Wes Goodrich

Each episode we cover news in the film, TV, and video game industries, before diving into review of a topical movie, and deeper discussion of a more obscure film chosen by one among us--the Morticians--and preferably one that the others haven't seen. This is where movies come to be examined. To die, or maybe, to be reborn. Scrub in!

Longlegs x Manhunter
Episode 5
Monday, 22 July, 2024

Welcome back to the Morgue! Assembled after a long break, the Morticians tackle one of their most hotly-anticipated releases of the year: LONGLEGS. Did Nic Cage miss his calling as a hair metal singer? How effective is horror for the communication of Oz Perkins’ particular trauma? And then we dip into the deep cerulean underbrush of MANHUNTER, Michael Mann’s third feature and the one that introduced Hannibal Lecter to moviegoers. It’s a double crime thriller doozy, so grab your boxes of dusty files and scrub in!
