And then there were three.
Hannah Ann, Madison and Victoria F. all traveled with Peter to Australia for Fantasy Suites week.
The episode began with Madison and Peter having a conversation in which Madison expressed she might leave if Peter slept with the other women. That was the theme of the entire episode which was all a big build up to Madison's Fantasy Suite date.
Hannah Ann and Victoria F's dates were largely uneventful. They were the exact opposite of Madison's date where she ultimately walked out.

For the first time in about a month, after absences from Mary Kate and Dylan, all of the Four Thorns are in the studio together to break down the final four, hometowns week.
This week's episode began with relatively quick and boring hometowns with Hannah Ann and Kelsey and then were followed by Madison's hometown, which included Auburn University celebrities such as Charles Barkley.
Then Peter went to Virginia Beach, Virginia, Victoria F.'s hometown. The date went well until Peter's ex-girlfriend Marissa told Peter to be careful around Victoria. Peter didn't meet Victoria's family after the two fought on her front steps.

Peter narrowed down six women to four this week. These are the four women whose hometowns he will visit. Hannah Ann and Madison were locks to make it through, but there were two other spots virtually up for grabs. It was as dramatic as ever and never fully clear who would take the final spots until the very end.
Did Peter make the right choices? Is he still the worst Bachelor ever? All of that and more on this week's Four Thorns.
IDS basketball reporters Matt Cohen, Phil Steinmetz and Caleb Coffman are back in studio after a big week of IU men's basketball.

IU men's basketball is in a three-game losing streak. It's a streak that began with a collapse against Maryland on Jan. 26 followed by two poor performances on offense.

Alayah came back to the show this week, and the women were not happy. Kelsey and Victoria F. each got one-on-one dates. Victoria F. had tears all throughout her date because her ex-boyfriend, Chase Rice, performed a private concert in a move that seemed to have the producers' marks on it.
The Four Thorns break it all down and update their predictions for the winner and bachelorette. This week, the group has some consensus.
After the toughest week of the season for IU basketball, the Indiana Daily Student's men's basketball beat reporters are back in the studio to analyze the Michigan State and Maryland games. But the focus of this week was the NCAA Tournament, and just how safely or not IU is in the field of 64.

Double Feature: Time for musicals with ‘Chicago,’ ‘The Umbrellas of Cherbourg’ by Indiana Daily Student
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones too.
For some musicians, the confines of the traditional three-minute music video just aren’t enough. This week, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss “Guava Island” and “Lemonade,” two recent music films at the top of what the medium can be.
“Guava Island,” released April 13 on Amazon Prime Video, is a 55-minute-long showcase of the music of Donald Glover, better known by his stage name Childish Gambino. The film tells the story of a musician, played by Glover, on a strictly-controlled island who is trying to organize a music festival for everyone to enjoy.
When Beyoncé’s 65-minute-long film “Lemonade” premiered on HBO, it became a cultural moment. The film, which is approaching its third anniversary next week, isn’t quite a traditional narrative film; it’s divided into eleven chapters, one for each song on the album excluding “Formation.” Each chapter presents a different video with a different visual style for each song, ultimately telling a story about betrayal and forgiveness on both an individual and societal level.
Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too.
A darty playing music too loudly, alumni coming back to town in hordes, townies preparing for likely inevitable mayhem. It is undeniably Little 500 season in Bloomington. Called “The World’s Greatest College Weekend,” Little 500 is an IU tradition so important to the local culture, it even has its own movie.
“Breaking Away,” released in 1979 and written by IU alumnus Steve Tesich, tells the story of a group of 19-year-old Bloomington residents and the divide between IU students and those living in the town, centered on the Little 500 race itself.
This week hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester watched “Breaking Away” for the first time, and thankfully they both loved it. In this episode, they discuss the movie and how weird it is to watch a movie filmed where you walk to class every day.

For the most part, American animation consists of only children's movies. While studios such as Pixar and Laika produce gorgeous and thoughtful films, at a certain point the limitation of ratings can take away from the work itself. The movies are beautiful, yes, but they're still for kids.
Where are the animated thrillers? Where are the animated films that verge on the disturbing, the challenging, the questionable?
The answer: Japan.
This week, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss "Akira" and "Perfect Blue," two influential and influential movies that happen to also be anime.
"Akira" tells the story of a youth biker gang in the futuristic, cyberpunk metropolis of Neo-Tokyo, set in the then-impossibly far away year of 2019. Since its release in 1988, the movie has gained a cult following and is occasionally credited with introducing audiences outside of Japan to anime.
"Perfect Blue" is a psychological horror thriller following Mima, a pop star who starts to lose track between reality and fantasy when she quits music to pursue a serious acting career. Released in 1997 and directed by Satoshi Kon, the film is one that leaves the audience as unsure as its protagonist of what's real and what's fake, but in a good way.
This week, special guest Donovan Harden joins the podcast. Harden is an aspiring filmmaker and an IU junior — and he's also an "Akira" super fan.
It took sophomore infielder Drew Ashley 19 games to hit his first home run as a Hoosier. But when the ball left his bat in the 12th inning against Illinois on April 28, 2018, it gave IU a walk-off win and showed fans what Ashley was capable of.
He would be named to the All-Big Ten Freshman team when the season ended and has been a key piece in the lineup for IU under new Head Coach Jeff Mercer this season.
Ashley joined Indiana Daily Student baseball beat reporters Stefan Krajisnik and Jared Rigdon to discuss this season and his career with the Hoosiers.

Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. The movie-going audience is buzzing about “Us,” the new movie from sketch comedian-turned-horror auteur Jordan Peele. Peele dominated the cultural conversation in 2017 with his hit directorial debut and racial parable “Get Out,” so anticipation for “Us” has been high ever since the trailer was uploaded to YouTube in December.
The movie stars Lupita Nyong’o as Adelaide Wilson, a woman who returns to her childhood home with her family, with “Black Panther” standout actor Winston Duke playing her husband and formidable child actors Evan Alex and Shahadi Wright Joseph playing the couple’s two children. The family is accosted by four strangers who break into their house, and the intruders are revealed to be red jumpsuit-wearing doppelgangers of the Wilson family.
On this week’s episode, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss “Us,” the film’s significance, comparisons to “Get Out” and how they’re both in love with Duke.

On this week's episode, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester still aren't ready to admit it's not spring break anymore, but it's a little easier to admit with two twisted tales of vacations gone wrong: 2015's "A Bigger Splash" and 2012's "Spring Breakers."
"A Bigger Splash" is the second film in director Luca Guadagnino's self-described Desire trilogy, which ended in 2017 with the hit romance "Call Me by Your Name." It tells the story of famous rock singer Marianne Lane, played by Tilda Swinton, vacationing on a small Italian island with her lover Paul. The vacation promptly gets interrupted by the appearance of Harry — Marianne's ex and Paul's former mentor — and his daughter Penelope.
"Spring Breakers" is a crime-filled, neon-colored spectacle of bikinis, cocaine and Britney Spears covers with James Franco on the piano. It's a lot. Distributed by indie film darling company A24, the movie received attention for its leading actresses being former Disney starlets Selena Gomez and Vanessa Hudgens as the titular girls gone wild.
IU baseball is on its longest winning streak of the season after defeating Indiana State University on Tuesday. With five consecutive wins under their belt, the Hoosiers will return to Bart Kaufman Field this weekend to open up Big Ten play.
IU will take on Iowa in a three-game series. Indiana Daily Student baseball beat reporter Jared Rigdon is joined by IUSTV baseball beat reporter and IDS sports editor Matt Cohen to discuss the past weekend and the upcoming one for IU.

For every movie that fits into the film noir genre, there seems to be three commenting upon the genre and its tenets. The world of mysterious dames, hard-nosed detectives and unraveling layers of intrigue started in American cinema in the 1920s and lasted until the late 1950s, but the echoes of the style carry decades past that time frame.
On this week’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss the 1958 film noir classic “Vertigo” and the 2001 neo-noir surrealist film “Mulholland Drive.”
“Vertigo,” directed by the legendary so-called master of suspense Alfred Hitchcock, follows the story of a former detective suffering from vertigo who is hired to follow the wife of an acquaintance. In 2012, it replaced “Citizen Kane” as the greatest film ever made in the British Film Institute’s Sight & Sound critics’ poll.
The David Lynch-written and -directed “Mulholland Drive” is notable for its non-traditional narrative structure that left audiences and critics speculating on what the movie is actually about and what happens in it. The film seemingly follows an aspiring actress in Los Angeles named Betty who meets an amnesiac woman who was recently in a car accident. The Village Voice called the film a “poisonous valentine to Hollywood” in its review.
Coming off a three-game sweep at the University of Tennessee, IU baseball needed to come back strong. It wasn't easy, but IU went 4-1 last week, including a win against then-No. 21 University of Connecticut and a near win against then-No. 11 Coastal Carolina University.
Up next will be another tough weekend for the Hoosiers.
Indiana Daily Student baseball beat reporters Stefan Krajisnik and Jared Rigdon look back at the past week for the team while looking ahead to the Safeco Field Tournament.

There's been a dramatic change in fortunes and postseason hopes for the IU men's basketball team.
The Hoosiers have won their last two games, both at home inside Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall, and both against teams ranked in the top 20 of the Associated Press poll.
As such, IU is right back in the thick of the discussion to be included as an at-large team in the 68-team NCAA Tournament field. Indiana Daily Student men's basketball reporter Cameron Drummond, women's basketball reporter Stefan Krajisnik as well as Indiana University Student Television men's basketball and IDS baseball reporter Jared Rigdon try to make sense of IU's recent performances and discuss what IU has to do the rest of the season to reach the NCAA Tournament.

Now that the dust has settled after the 91st Annual Academy Awards, this cursed Oscars season is officially over, with some mixed results. On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss the highs and lows of Oscars night.
The most awarded film of the night was "Bohemian Rhapsody," with four wins, and the Best Picture award went to "Green Book" — two movies that have received criticism for both their messaging and the people behind the camera.
Olivia Colman won Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrayal of Queen Anne in "The Favourite," a surprising upset over Glenn Close's performance in "The Wife." Mexican writer and director Alfonso Cuarón won three Oscars for his film "Roma": Best Director, Foreign Language Film and Best Cinematography.
For just the second time since the start of last season, IU baseball was swept over a weekend series. The University of Tennessee won all three games against IU.
IU, now 2-4, will look to get back to .500 with two midweek games at home before heading to Conway, South Carolina, for the Coastal Carolina Tournament.
Indiana Daily Student baseball beat reporters Stefan Krajisnik and Jared Rigdon discuss the team's recent struggles and look ahead to five games this week on the second episode of Baseline Banter.

Last week brought more of the same for the IU men's basketball team, although the losses came in a different way than usual. Instead of a lifeless performance on the court, the Hoosiers showed fight while still coming up short.
The IU suffered heartbreaking defeats against rival Purdue and on the road at Iowa, continuing their downward spiral as the season approaches its end.
Indiana Daily Student men's basketball reporter Cameron Drummond and men's basketball columnist Murphy Wheeler were joined by women's basketball reporter Dylan Wallace to figure out if the Hoosiers can learn anything from those two defeats, as well as answer questions submitted from IU men's basketball fans on Twitter.

Many action movies are intensely formulaic, with most going down the list of what's expected of an action movie: A car chase, a bomb that's going to go off at some point and lots of wasted bullets. The same expectation of formula can be applied to superhero movies, with the basic roles of good guy with powers versus bad guy with powers.
On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss two films from 2018 that stick to formulas, but are so good it doesn't matter: "Black Panther" and "Mission: Impossible - Fallout."
"Black Panther" became a cultural moment when it was released a little over a year ago and introduced audiences to the world of Wakanda. It's now nominated for seven Academy Awards, including now being the first superhero movie to be nominated for Best Picture.
"Mission: Impossible - Fallout" is the sixth installment of the "Mission: Impossible" series. It stars stars Tom Cruise as the spy Ethan Hunt, who is trying to track some mission plutonium, and Henry Cavill as CIA agent August Walker. Critics have said it's the best film in the series, and it currently has a 97 percent positive rating on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes.
While the weather may not resemble it, baseball season has begun at IU. After a 2-1 weekend at the University of Memphis, IU will get set to travel back south to face the University of Tennessee.
Indiana Daily Student baseball writers Stefan Krajisnik and Jared Rigdon discuss the early season and what to look forward to the rest of the season in the first episode of the Baseline Banter.
On this episode of Posted, hosts Lydia Gerike and Jacob deCastro talk about the week's headlines and with Christine Stephenson about a Purdue student who walked nearly 100 miles to IU in honor of Purdue's Tyler Trent.

IU men's basketball's poor 2019 season continued last week, as the Hoosiers lost at Minnesota by 21 points.
The loss means the Hoosiers have dropped 10 of their last 11 games, although a stretch of four consecutive games against quality Big Ten opponents presents IU with a final chance to salvage its season.
Indiana Daily Student men's basketball writer Cameron Drummond and women's basketball writer Dylan Wallace recap the blowout loss to Minnesota, discuss IU's many offensive flaws and take a look at both IU's men's and women's teams as their regular seasons near an end.
PODCAST SEGMENTS: 1:10 — Just how surprising was the way IU's loss at Minnesota played out? 4:10 — Evaluating IU's defensive performance against Minnesota's Jordan Murphy 7:12 — Romeo Langford's lack of aggressiveness for the Hoosiers 15:00 — A look at how the rest of the season shapes up for IU 21:40 — A recap of the season so far for the IU women's basketball team 33:00 — How will the season likely end for the men's and women's teams?

Period pieces are usually boring. Movies featuring stuffy actors wearing petticoats and speaking in bad English accents are the norm when it comes to a certain genre of historical movie.
On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester celebrate two recent sleek, subversive and sexy period pieces that aren't afraid to stir the pot: 2017's "Phantom Thread" and 2018's "The Favourite."
"Phantom Thread" was written and directed by Paul Thomas Anderson — notable for the porn epic "Boogie Nights" and the oil boom-set drama "There Will Be Blood — and was nominated for six Oscars at the 90th Academy Awards. While it only won one for Best Costume Design, some consider the film to be one of Anderson's best.
"The Favourite" is a dark comedy following two cousins trying to win the favor of Queen Anne of England in the 18th century. Directed by Greek filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, the film has received 10 Oscar nominations, including acting nominations for all three leading women.
Despite an upset win on the road against Michigan State, the IU men's basketball team has failed to maintain any momentum.
IU followed the Michigan State win with a pair of home losses to Iowa and Ohio State, dropping its record to 13-11 overall and 4-9 in conference games.
Indiana Daily Student men's basketball writers Cameron Drummond and Murphy Wheeler discuss IU's offensive problems and whether or not the team will reach the NCAA Tournament.
PODCAST SEGMENTS: 1:10 - A recap of IU's terrible 2019 4:00 - The sense of urgency surrounding the IU program 5:00 - Offensive problems and potential adjustments for IU to make 11:30 - Can Juwan Morgan or Romeo Langford single-handedly stop IU's downward spiral? 17:00 - Could Jake Forrester help this IU team? 22:20 - Justin Smith as a metaphor for the entire IU season 27:20 - Setting the stage for the rest of the IU season 31:00 - The case for, and the case against, IU being in the NCAA Tournament

With years of internationally acclaimed work, a distinct philosophical look at the nature of connections and a new film with 10 Academy Award nominations, Mexican writer and director Alfonso Cuarón has made a name for himself as a critical darling with an eternally-fresh artistic eye.
On this week’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss arguably his two most personal works: 2001’s coming-of-age drama “Y Tu Mamá También” and 2018’s black-and-white tale of a live-in housekeeper, “Roma.”
“Y Tu Mamá También” follows two teenage boys who go on a road trip with an older married woman, but it’s so much more than the wacky sex romp that it sounds like it is. It even earned an Oscar nomination for Best Original Screenplay, despite some controversy over explicit sex and drug use.
When it came time to make “Roma”, Cuarón decided to shoot the film himself in addition to writing, directing, co-producing and co-editing it. The story is focused on Cleo, a housekeeper in the home of a middle-class family in Mexico City in 1970.
Cleo is played by first-time actress Yalitza Aparicio, whose Oscar nomination for Best Actress marks the first time an Indigenous woman has been up for the prize.
After a seven-game losing streak, the IU men's basketball season was energized last weekend with a stunning upset win in East Lansing, Michigan.
The Hoosiers defeated the then-No. 6 ranked Spartans for their first road win in the series since February 2013, a win that also changes the trajectory of this IU season.
Indiana Daily Student men's basketball writers Ben Portnoy and Murphy Wheeler discuss the ramifications of IU's victory, as well as the effect the win has on the Hoosiers' NCAA Tournament hopes.

Generally speaking, faith-based films usually suck. More often than not, they tend to be pandering, flat and completely derivative. Filmmakers rarely have the courage to tackle the nuances of spirituality or look at the uglier sides of what it means to live a religious life.
On this week's episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss two films that do: 2011's "The Tree of Life" and 2017's "First Reformed."
"The Tree of Life," directed by Terrence Malick, stars Brad Pitt, Sean Penn and Jessica Chastain in an epic comparing a man's memory of growing up in 1950s Texas with the origins of the universe and life on Earth.
"First Reformed," directed by Paul Schrader, follows the Reverend Ernst Toller — played by Ethan Hawke in a performance many say deserved an Academy Award nomination for Best Actor — as he wrestles with questions of faith and forgiveness after encountering a radical environmentalist.
IU has now gone nearly a month without a victory after losing its last six games. The Hoosiers now sit at 12-8 overall and 3-6 in Big Ten play with a pair of daunting road games on the schedule for this week.
IU plays at Rutgers on Wednesday night before a Saturday night contest at Michigan State.
Indiana Daily Student men's basketball writers Ben Portnoy, Cameron Drummond and Murphy Wheeler discuss potential solutions for IU, as well as what the realistic expectations should be for the team for the rest of the season.

Every year, movie nerds anticipate the nominations from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, better known as just the Academy, to see if their favorite films of the year get any recognition leading up to the Oscars. The nominations are the moment when all the awards show buzz either falls flat or propels a picture to the canon of movies worth seeing.
This year's nominations are a mixed bag. This week, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester are breaking the usual format to discuss the highs and lows of the nominations, which were announced earlier this week.
For example, the thoughtful and beautiful films "Roma" and "The Favourite" are both up for Best Picture, but Barry Jenkins' latest film, "If Beale Street Could Talk," wasn't even nominated in that category. This is only a couple years after Jenkins' "Moonlight" took home the same award.
But, perhaps most egregiously of all, "Paddington 2" didn't receive a single nomination.
After a 3-0 start to Big Ten Conference play, the IU men's basketball team has gone through its roughest stretch of the season.
IU has lost its last four games, including this past week's contests at home against Nebraska and at Purdue, to drop to 3-4 in conference games and 12-6 overall for the season.
Indiana Daily Student men’s basketball writers Cameron Drummond and Ben Portnoy discuss the reasons for IU's recent downturn in fortunes, any positives to come out of a 15-point road loss at Purdue and look ahead to the importance of this week's games as IU looks to stay in the NCAA Tournament picture.
Brendan Quinn of The Athletic Detroit also joins the podcast to help preview IU's rematch against Michigan this Friday night.

A lot of children’s movies have a habit of talking down to or tailoring themselves to their audience, favoring cutesy kitsch over impactful storytelling. On this new episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester discuss two children’s movies that are wonderful specifically because they don’t do that: "Paddington 2," and "The Last Unicorn."
"Paddington 2," the story of our hero Paddington Bear trying to find a birthday present for his Aunt Lucy, is currently the highest rated film on Rotten Tomatoes. What appears to be a straight-forward movie for children ends up touching on topics like the hostility of modern society towards immigrants as well as the injustices inherent within the criminal justice system. It's still about a CGI bear who loves marmalade sandwiches, though.
"The Last Unicorn" is a 1982 animated fever dream of a movie about a unicorn who, fearing she is the last of her kind, goes on a journey to find the rest of the unicorns. In her travels, she finds a butterfly who only communicates in song, a very nervous wizard who hasn't quite figured out how to use magic, a talking pirate cat with a peg leg and a eye-patch who only speaks in riddles and so much more. It's a film that is actively terrifying, but for children.
IU’s conference record has gone from an unblemished 3-0 to a 3-2 mark after recent losses at Michigan and Maryland.
Now, IU returns home to play Nebraska on Monday night before traveling to play Purdue this weekend at Mackey Arena.
Indiana Daily Student men’s basketball writers Cameron Drummond, Ben Portnoy and Murphy Wheeler discuss how important this week’s games are to the rest of IU’s season, as well as the depth issues plaguing IU.
Purdue men’s basketball writer Nathan Baird of the Lafayette Journal & Courier also joins the podcast to preview IU’s game Saturday afternoon at Purdue.

The Midwestern identity has been the subject of a lot of scrutiny in recent years. There was a lot of conjecture from people living on the coasts about the Midwest after the 2016 election — who lives in small towns in states like Indiana? What are their lives like?
In this episode of Double Feature, hosts Annie Aguiar and Chris Forrester talk about two films from the last two years that attempt to answer that question, with different levels of success: "Monrovia, Indiana" and "Columbus." These films both offer looks into small town Indiana life as veteran documentarian Frederick Wiseman takes viewers into day-to-day scenes in "Monrovia, Indiana" and debut director Kogonada makes the audience think — and cry — about what it's like to both love and hate the place you're from.
After winning seven consecutive games following a blowout loss at Duke University, the IU men's basketball team was dealt its third road loss of the season Sunday night.
The Hoosiers fell by 11 points against the then-No. 2 ranked Michigan Wolverines, a game in which IU never led.
Injuries, foul trouble and a slow start to the game doomed IU from the opening tipoff, but a resurgent second-half performance gave the Hoosiers some momentum despite the loss.
With 16 more conference games left to close out the season, Indiana Daily Student basketball writers Cameron Drummond and Ben Portnoy, along with special guest and former IDS staffer Andrew Hussey from Michigan's Rivals' website, The Wolverine, dissect what happened during Sunday's game and what it means for both IU and Michigan going forward.

For the second time this season, the IU men's basketball team has won three straight games. IU's last three wins, against Northwestern, Penn State and Louisville, have all come by two points or fewer, giving the Hoosiers an 8-2 record this season. Next up for IU is another marquee nonconference game against Butler on Saturday as part of the Crossroads Classic at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. Prior to this game, Indiana Daily Student basketball writers Cameron Drummond, Ben Portnoy and Murphy Wheeler were joined in-studio for the entire 45-minute episode by Dustin Dopirak, who covers Butler, IU and Purdue men's college basketball for The Athletic.

Following a 21-point road loss at Duke, the IU men's basketball team put on a gritty performance to defeat Northwestern, 68-66, to begin Big Ten Conference play this weekend.
IU now looks toward starting 2-0 in conference play with a game at Penn State scheduled for Tuesday night. But, the Hoosiers may have to play the Nittany Lions without the services of senior forward Juwan Morgan.
IDS men's basketball writers Cameron Drummond, Ben Portnoy and Murphy Wheeler recap the past week of IU hoops, which also featured a major recruiting victory for IU Coach Archie Miller.

Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. There’s an accepted rule in film that remakes suck, and that horror remakes suck even more.

Welcome back to Double Feature, the IDS film podcast where the powers that be let us in a podcast booth to give you hot takes and maybe some lukewarm ones, too. In 1978, John Carpenter revolutionized the slasher horror subgenre with his classic “Halloween.” In 2018, after sequels, remakes, remakes of sequels and sequels of remakes, things finally make sense in Haddonfield, Illinois. Now, things are back to the beginning with a definitive sequel, simply entitled “Halloween.” On today’s episode of Double Feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar talk Halloween, "Halloween", and why we love them BOTH.
It’s hard to nail down precisely what horror film is – is it scary? Violent? Bloody? But horror through film history has consistently been a response to taboos. In contemporary and independent horror, a new trend spins horror film into social metaphor. On a new episode of Double feature, hosts Chris Forrester and Annie Aguiar are joined by guest Joe Schroeder to talk about the recent social thriller “Get Out” and the period terror “the VVitch.”
