In Alive Poets Society’s third installment, we (continue to) get spooky (in December) with the movie The VVitch directed by Robert Eggers—a movie currently on Netflix. The episode begins with some backstory as we get a glance into Maxwell’s search history and his father’s profession. Maxwell and Holly dive straight into the dialogue and how it affects the film’s believability and creepiness. Tom and Holly admit their deep fear of horror movies, but Maxwell makes a good case for them. After debating the true villain of the film, we do come to a consensus about one deeply important aspect of the movie—the twins and how they are the absolute worst. Tom breaks down his Pros and Cons chart regarding the end of the film. Lastly, the episode finishes on everyone’s favorite segment, reviewing a review in The Review Review. Unfortunately, this review doesn’t fare well under our scrutiny. Again, blame Holly's dog for any background noise. 

Come back in two weeks to hear us dissect The Lobster! (the movie The Lobster. We are not dissecting an actual lobster. Though, if that’s your thing, I’m sure there is a podcast out there for that too.)

Shout out to Mayo Nice for the intro music.
