Tune in as this program plunges deeper into the holiday season! For this third episode of December, Clayton Jones II and Shawn Murphy (Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies! [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/men-who-like-men-who-like-movies/id1641616911]) are circling back around to review Love Hard, the 2021 Netflix Christmas rom-com about the fake-dating and matchmaking antics that ensue after a dating column writer travels across the country for a seemingly charming guy and then realizes she’s been catfished. Subverting the Submissive Asian Male stereotype, Shawn’s hate for You’ve Got Mail and Forrest Gump (with Arthur also loathing the latter), the rapey air that “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” could give off in these modern times, and the terrors of dating app culture land as some of the subject matter for this episode.



Directed by Hernán Jiménez, Love Hard stars Nina Dobrev, Jimmy O. Yang, Darren Barnet, Harry Shum Jr., Matty Finochio, Althea Kaye, James Saito, Rebecca Staab, Mikaela Hoover, Heather McMahan, and Fletcher Donovan.

#238 – Love Hard | Directed by Hernán Jiménez (with Clayton Jones II and Shawn Murphy of Men Who Like Men Who Like Movies Podcast)

Tune in as the Christmas season keeps rolling forward on the podcast! For this second episode of December, Hannah, Rebecca, and Sarah (Can I Spoil Something? [https://open.spotify.com/show/1fBpzLCwfewTjBoWKDZ1bt?si=87cDnmxnT0SXJdLyI2hLIQ]) are rejoining 2CC for a dive into Krampus: The Yule Lord, the 2012 holiday horror novel by Brom that takes you on a grisly and festive journey alongside a struggling singer who gets dragged into a mission that the horned folkloric figure Krampus is pursuing to take back Yuletide from Santa Claus. A dirty cop named Dillard and other loathsome men in this book, the choice to connect Krampus to Norse mythology, laughing a ton over Santa’s sack, and appreciation for Sinners pop up as a few of the topics that the hosts weave their way through for this episode.



TW: death, murder, violence, gun violence, domestic abuse, child neglect and abuse, suicidal ideation, suicide attempt, suicide (in the past), animal injury and death, alcohol, drugs, substance abuse, pregnancy (in the past), ableism, racism, homophobia, religious bigotry, and mental illness

﻿#237 – Krampus: The Yule Lord by Brom (with Hannah, Rebecca, and Sarah of Can I Spoil Something?)

Tune in as the Christmas season launches on 2CC! For this first episode of December, Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony [https://twitter.com/pooroldrolotony?s=21]) is jumping back onto the podcast to cover Black Christmas, the 1974 Christmas slasher horror film about a group of sorority sisters who are dealing with menacing prank phone calls and the dogged pursuit of a homicidal and sexually perverse stalker. The surprisingly feminist politics that this movie displays for its time, Tony advising Arthur to avoid Porky’s, Herschell Gordon Lewis and other pieces of horror cinema history, and getting dark laughs out of all the hidden sherry comprise some of the discussion for this episode.



Directed by Bob Clark, Black Christmas (1974) stars Olivia Hussey, Margot Kidder, Keir Dullea, John Saxon, Marian Waldman, Andrea Martin, James Edmond, Doug McGrath, Art Hindle, Lynne Griffin, Michael Rapport, Leslie Carlson, Martha Gibson, Nick Mancuso, Bob Clark, and Ann Sweeny.

﻿﻿#236 – Black Christmas (1974) | Directed by Bob Clark (with Rolo Tony)

Tune in as Kristen and Mariah (Literary Liberation [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/literary-liberation/id1704219062]) collaborate with the podcast to focus on They Both Die at the End, the 2017 YA speculative fiction novel by Adam Silvera that covers two teenage boys taking an existential journey through a world where a company called Death-Cast can call you up and alert you to the daunting fact that you’ll die in less than twenty-four hours—a fact that those two boys have to wrestle with on the final day of their mortal lives. Questioning how much free will really exists in the landscape of Death-Cast, examining the capitalism of this tale from a socialist stance, and a seeming Harry Potter nod being one of the book’s dated moments make up a few of the talking points for this episode.



TW: death, grief, violence, gun violence, murder, animal death, child death, parental death (in the past), terminal illness, fire, drowning (in the past), car accident, suicide (in the past), suicidal ideation, homophobia, mental illness, and panic attacks

Tune in as Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony [https://twitter.com/pooroldrolotony?s=21]) regains his seat at the 2CC table for a dive into Comet, the 2014 romance movie about a relationship that starts with a chance meeting at a meteor shower and then stretches on through a parallel universe or two over a six-year timespan. Drawing connections between this film and (500) Days of Summer, Dell putting on such a Sherlock Holmesian air, the sci-fi tinge of this tale, and the roles that time and memory play in its nonlinear narrative stand out as some of the topics for this episode.



Written and directed by Sam Esmail, Comet stars Justin Long, Emmy Rossum, Kayla Servi, Eric Winter, and Motown Maurice.

Tune in as Anna (@banananna024 [https://twitter.com/banananna024?s=21]/@formergleek [https://twitter.com/formergleek?s=21]) hops back onto the podcast for a discussion on Rope, the 1948 thriller film about a pair of men who dare to see if they can carry out the perfect murder by hosting a dinner party at their apartment—the place where they have their victim’s corpse all tucked away. The lost art of homoeroticism, avoiding the spoilery trailer for Project Hail Mary, nitpicking unrealistic depictions of strangulation, and comparing Rope to Frasier and Death Note land as a few of the subjects for this episode.



Directed by Alfred Hitchcock, Rope stars John Dall, Farley Granger, James Stewart, Sir Cedric Hardwicke, Constance Collier, Douglas Dick, Edith Evanson, Joan Chandler, and Dick Hogan.

#233 – Rope | Directed by Alfred Hitchcock (with Anna)

Joining the podcast today is Chris Peckover, the director of the 2016 Christmas horror-comedy movie Better Watch Out. This program had actually devoted a whole episode [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2-cents-critic/id1564676035?i=1000679983297] to that suspenseful and grimly funny ride last holiday season, so it’s only fitting for Chris himself to finally hop into the guest seat. An alternate career path that Chris could have taken, the racist and xenophobic violence of anti-immigrant attitudes, the incel mindset, dark comedy being an important aspect of horror, and what Chris has been working on post-Better Watch Out emerge as some of the talking points for this episode.

Interview with Filmmaker Chris Peckover (Better Watch Out)

Tune in as Marie Nicola (Alt.Pop.Repeat  [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/alt-pop-repeat/id1493249541]and Past//Forward [https://marienicola.substack.com/]) circles back around to the podcast for a plunge into Son of the White Mare, the 1981 animated fantasy adventure movie about a horse’s human son who embarks on a quest to save the world with the help of his superpowers and his two brothers. The phallic depiction of a sword and other sexualized symbolism, encouraging more respect for animation and the age ranges it can appeal to, reading this film through a socialist lens, and the impact that nostalgia has on obstructing boycotts stand out as a few talking points for this episode.



Directed by Marcell Jankovics, Son of the White Mare stars György Cserhalmi, Pap Vera, Gyula Szabó, Mari Szemes, Ferenc Szalma, and Szabolcs Toth.

Tune in as Dustin Holden (The Rewatch Recap [https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-rewatch-recap/id1636230425]) jumps back onto the program for a discussion on The Worst Witch, the 1986 fantasy TV movie about the magical shenanigans that a good-hearted and accident-prone student undergoes at an esteemed witch academy. The blatant inspiration that the Harry Potter series must have drawn from this flick, the moments where this is somewhat a musical, and the absolutely campy fun of Tim Curry pop up as some of the subject matter for this episode.



Directed by Robert W. Young, The Worst Witch stars Fairuza Balk, Diana Rigg, Charlotte Rae, Tim Curry, Danielle Batchelor, Anna Kipling, Sabina Franklyn, Kate Buckley, and Su Elliot.

#231 – The Worst Witch | Directed by Robert W. Young (with Dustin Holden of The Rewatch Recap)

Tune in as Rolo Tony (@PoorOldRoloTony [https://twitter.com/pooroldrolotony?s=21]) circles back around to the podcast in order to unpack Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities, the 2022 horror anthology Netflix miniseries whose stories range from a grave robber who runs up against swarms of vicious rats and the squirm-inducing results of a mysterious lotion to the psychologically shattering impact of some macabre paintings and a consciousness-expanding event that has much more than its guests bargained for. The Lovecraftian flair in much of this show, runtime gripes, Dan Stevens’s bizarre accent work, and the capacity that both “The Murmuring” and The Babadook have to make Arthur ugly-cry land as a few of the topics for this episode.



Directed by Guillermo Navarro, Vincenzo Natali, David Prior, Ana Lily Amirpour, Keith Thomas, Catherine Hardwicke, Panos Cosmatos, and Jennifer Kent, Guillermo del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities stars Tim Blake Nelson, Elpidia Carrillo, David Hewlett, F. Murray Abraham, Glynn Turman, Luke Roberts, Kate Micucci, Martin Starr, Dan Stevens, Ben Barnes, Crispin Glover, Oriana Leman, Rupert Grint, Daphne Hoskins, Lize Johnston, Charlyne Yi, Michael Therriault, Eric Andre, Steve Agee, Peter Weller, Sofia Boutella, Essie Davis, Andrew Lincoln, and Hannah Galway.
