Host Ali and guests Dan and Conor take on the 148-minute slog that is 2019's Midsommar, an indie horror about a wacky Swedish cannibal cult that's far less interesting than it sounds.
In attempting to fix Midsommar, the trio marvel at how director Ari Aster manages to succumb to every horror movie cliché...while also somehow failing to do the bare minimum most horror movies get right. Debate topics also include the merits of ceremonial mallets vs. nursing homes, tedious Master's thesis arguments, and whether or not Midsommar's "hero" might secretly be the villain.
Recommendations this episode: The Cabin in the Woods (Conor), The Mandalorian (Dan), The Venture Bros. (Ali).
