Could a show about faith and philosophical dilemmas be the scariest thing you've ever seen? We're thrilled to have Cam Sully from the Jacked Up Review Podcast back with us as we unravel the chilling and thought-provoking layers of this Netflix series. Together, we compare it to Flanagan's other works, like "Haunting of Hill House" and "Haunting of Bly Manor," and examine the intricate blend of religious horror and character development that makes "Midnight Mass" a standout. The setting of Crockett Island becomes a character in itself, with its residents' existential struggles pushing them to the brink. Shifting gears, we critique the film industry's tendency to prioritize profit over creativity, highlighting the trials of cringe comedy and fantasy filmmaking. Streaming platforms like Netflix face unique challenges in promoting fantasy content that resonates with audiences, often caught in the crossfire of test screenings and studio interference. From the controversial decisions of HBO Max to the mishandling of productions such as "Rust" and "Game of Thrones," we peel back the layers of Hollywood's power dynamics, reflecting on the moral complexities in "Midnight Mass" and the societal pressures that drive its characters to manipulate religious beliefs. Finally, we're swept up in the nostalgia of entertainment news as the Wayans Brothers reunite for a new "Scary Movie" film. We journey back to our early movie experiences, reminiscing about the cultural impact of these iconic films with hopes for the return of beloved cast members like Anna Faris and Regina Hall. Our episode rounds out with some binge-worthy TV recommendations to broaden your media horizons, like the spy thriller "Slow Horses" and the animated series "The Legend of Vox Machina." So, if you're ready to question the nature of good, evil, faith, and the human condition, join us for this captivating discussion.
