New year, new remake. Join us next time when we’ll be watching and reviewing Nicolas Pesce’s horror remake, The Grudge. Here’s hoping the guy who brought us The Eyes of My Mother can start the new year off with a worthy remake.

Next up, for our first episode of the new year, we’ll be reviewing and discussing the very recent Netflix release, Bird Box. We’ve mentioned the book a few times and Amy even joined our pal Sandra in a discussion of it on Sandra’s podcast, Genre Junkies. The book’s a great (and quick) read so be an overachiever and check out the book and movie before our next episode.
