Episode 490 – War on Halloween
This Week: Kevin stares September in the face and dares it to show him its movies. September, of course, does not flinch, so he’s only had a chance to see a couple of them. (What might they be hiding.) Fortunately, he was able to see Sully as well as Complete Unknown and Our Little Sister. The films that hid from him this week are the sure-to-be-bad The Wild Life, When the Bough Breaks and The Disappointments Room. Kevin also takes a look at the encroachment of other holidays on Halloween, and later he talks about the box office and the home cinema recommendations.
