Have you seen Good Will Hunting? So if I asked you about it, you'd probably give me the skinny on every cast and crew member. Gus Van Sant, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon... you know a lot about them. Life's work, political aspirations, them and Kevin Smith, sexual orientations, the whole works, right? But I'll bet you've never heard Carlo from The Movie Loot talking about it for 20 minutes. But you don't want to do that do you, sport? Well here is Special Episode XV for you to listen anyway. Your move, chief.

Now, if you will, gentlemen, let's put this film into perspective, just so you guys can understand where I'm coming from when I talk about it. It's that the woman is the hunted, the animal... and when the wolf catches her, being the predator, the hunter, is gonna kill her! Little bit of biting here? You know, however it goes. They're animals, right? They're outta control. They're fierce, animals, crazy, rrr. That's what I'm sayin'. Let's do this movie... and after that, listen to me talk about a bunch of other films I saw last month.

INFECTION HIT! And as I lay in hiding in my house, I decided to record a special episode on a film about people hiding in a house as an infection hits. How meta is that? So don't abandon me, but join me in analyzing the intense opening scene from 2007's "zombie" sequel 28 Weeks Later. Will you do as Don and flee? or will you stick through the end?

Just like June 2022, September was a month dedicated almost solely to short films. After a hurricane and a week-long blackout, short films provided an easy way for me to achieve my monthly goal, so here it is. Shorts about everything from creepy masked men or cross-dressing bunnies to dangerous tramps or animated stick figures. But writing this description leads me to wonder, how often do people read the podcast episode descriptions? I dunno, but check the episode out!
