Season 2, Ep. 16
•
Suspiria retold with bugs and an unhinged final act, Phenomena delivers in some brilliant flashes of atmosphere what it misses in cohesiveness.

22. The Meg (2018)
49:22||Season 2, Ep. 22Someday, a giant shark will come and eat all this scum out of the ocean.#themeg #stathamgonnastatham #jonnyquest21. Jaws (1975)
50:49||Season 2, Ep. 21It’s summertime and the living is easy. And here is good old comforting Jaws to soothe us with its light-hearted score and cheerful tales of adventures at sea.#Jaws #Quint #USSIndianapolis20. A Perfect Getaway (2009)
54:44||Season 2, Ep. 20Successfully bearing the weight of its sleight-of-hand plot, A Perfect Getaway works from the edge of your seat through the first watch, and the comfiest depths of your couch for subsequent viewings. A solid cast and fun script make something special out of what could have been a standard hunter/hunted tour.#aperfectgetaway #millajovovich #timothyolyphant #redsnapper19. Turistas (2006)
49:10||Season 2, Ep. 19Somewhere at the crossroads of The Ruins and Hostel, mediocrity lurks. Turistas manages to never fully commit to anything, not even its own premise. The scenery and one strategically placed plantain are salvaged from the wreckage of this lazily-driven bus. #Turistas #notwithoutmykidneys #killerplantains18. The Descent (2005)
54:26||Season 2, Ep. 18Still the gold-standard for effective claustrophobia, the inadvisability of sequels, and not tweaking alternate endings. #TheDescent17. The Ruins (2008)
40:19||Season 2, Ep. 17Lost in the shuffle of a decade dominated by garish and often childish extremes, The Ruins remains an underappreciated example of pacing, keeping the gore powder dry for maximal effect, and knowing when to look away.#TheRuins #JenaMalone #killervines15. The House with Laughing Windows (1976)
47:12||Season 2, Ep. 15Fraught with tension and foreboding, Avati's Windows stands in contrast to our other gialli this month. Taking place in a dying, rural village, its treatment of social decay has an organic feel to it that seems at first far outside the aesthetic of the main run of gialli, even as it makes use of all the tropes and framework in ways that somehow still feel surprising. And for all that, we still get a strange manservant.#giallo #giallomonth #housewithlaughingwindows #avati #manservantlidio14. A Lizard In A Woman's Skin (1971)
47:26||Season 2, Ep. 14By turns fun, trashy, nonsensical, and beautiful, Lizard is everything terrible and wonderful about Fulci in one bright, crazy package. #Fulci #Lizardinawomansskin #Giallomonth #Hippies #redheads
