We may be a week late on this upload, but we're still keeping it spooky as we talk about the 1977 Italian horror film Suspiria. We talk color palette, fairy tales, score, symbolism, 4k blu-ray, and much, much more as we talk about this horror classic. This film is a tour de force of style and it was a blast to dissect it and break down our thoughts. What do you think about this classic? Come back next week for an episode on another classic - The Exorcist! Contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!

Ty can't seem to catch a break. I get into the details in this short pod, but unfortunately Ty has run into some terrible luck the past couple days and we had to throw recording out the window (and we were even halfway through the episode, we swear!). We planned on doing Flamin' Hot this week, so we'll still plan on releasing that this week or in two weeks. Until then contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!

This week we're talking about another sci-fi film, this time as a frame to deal with love, religion,  and search for meaning, with Spielberg's A.I. Haley Joel Osment gives a tour de force perfomance as a robot child capable of love in this depressing Kubrick/Spielberg collaboration of sorts. We've got a lot of thoughts on this film, and we don't even scratch the surface of this, but have a listen and let us know what you think! Contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!

Things are a little different this week, as I (it's me, Ryan, how you doing folks) do another solo episode, this time to break down a single movie, The Banshees of Inisherin. I absolutely loved this film and had thoughts on it anyway, so when Ty was unable to record again, I figured I could fill a few minutes all by myself. Tune in and if you haven't watched this yet, get out to a theater to check it out! Contact us at rollitpodcast@gmail.com or follow us!
