Upcoming Half in the Bag
Added 2021-06-23 23:26:44 +0000 UTCHey everyone! Doing something a little different for Half in the Bag, we're currently working on an episode about a new British horror movie called Censor. Most of the discussion is spoilers so we just wanted to give you a heads up to maybe watch the movie beforehand if it looks interesting to you. We both recommend it!

That movie was great. Good pick, fellas!

2021-06-29 22:07:13 +0000 UTCThanks for the heads up, I actually made sure to watch the film before watching the episode. I may do that more often, you guys have great taste in films (especially Jay).

2021-06-29 21:39:48 +0000 UTCI hope you do more of finding good VOD movies to talk about AND telling the Patreon community a few days in advance so we can prepare. Great video, really liked the "Nasties" review at the end. Thanks!

2021-06-29 02:07:59 +0000 UTCMight want to put spoiler warnings my dude.

2021-06-27 17:47:24 +0000 UTCLooking forward to this! I loved the setting & the visuals of Censor. It lost me abit towards the end but thought the last sequence was really cool. Excited to see more by Prano Bailey-Bond

2021-06-27 17:34:27 +0000 UTCAnnoyingly we’re not getting this movie in the UK until AUGUST.
Kyle McLachlan
2021-06-27 13:54:53 +0000 UTCDef dug the movie, I thought setting the movie against the video nasties time in uk was great and building a very personal story around it.
Dans Name
2021-06-27 13:18:27 +0000 UTCIt’s really curious. My take on it is that she, as a child, did witness the abduction and brutal murder of her sister at the hands of Frederick North—there’s a reason why he and the producer as portrayed as elderly men, so it’s plausible in terms of time—in a location snuff shoot (since the producer is known for re-using locations), and her intellectual-albeit-passionate resolve to “hold back evil,” unexpressed grief/anger at her parents, and lifelong amnesia of the event created a fragile situation (complete with hallucinations) in which she eventually subconsciously-then-consciously both solved/avenged the murder but lost her mind in doing so.

2021-06-27 10:00:35 +0000 UTCCool movie. Great ending. Looking forward to what y'all have to say about this one. Thanks for the heads up.

2021-06-26 15:07:00 +0000 UTCIf you're open to suggestions Why not Give Slipstream a look as it was the last Mark Hamill George Lucas Collaboration and is actually quite a pretty movie
The Thinking Cat...Former Cthulhu Pofit Neo Normie and Masked fat guy but now a Cat ??
2021-06-26 14:21:43 +0000 UTCFun fact: the CEO of IMDb saw a list condemning all of the Video Nasties in his UK newspaper as an impressionable youth and made it his mission to watch all of them immediately with a friend. Not sure if “Cannibal Carnage” was on the list 👀

2021-06-26 13:56:23 +0000 UTCI watched it last night. Wow! I like it a lot. I’m excited to see what you have to say about it.

2021-06-26 07:40:27 +0000 UTCThe editing and visual effects were phenomenal. Fun film. Great rec!!

2021-06-25 18:16:30 +0000 UTCI don't really watch horror movies much, and I've only watched two horror movies in the past fifteen years or so, both on your recommendation (the other was The Witch). I watched Censor last night, and I enjoyed it so thoroughly I am kind of astounded by it. So glad you recommended the film. Thanks guys!

2021-06-25 17:39:07 +0000 UTCFirst I was all "Oh, Argento's Evil Dead with Bob from Twin Peaks" but then I was all "Oh, I see what you did there"
Cary Thrasher
2021-06-25 16:31:15 +0000 UTCThank you guys for recommending this one! I watched it tonight and there was a lot I loved about it. The grading and lighting and very deliberate color choices in set dressing/props/wardrobe made this one of the most gorgeous films I've seen recently. Lots of cool toned environments contrasted against warm light sources. Blue and orange, purple and yellow, pink and green, in nearly every shot. The lighting in the woods was especially striking (helps when it doesn't have to be motivated). There were some neat transitions, too. That slow shift in aspect ratio a la It Comes at Night was wonderful. There's some pretty clear commentary in there, I mean the whole thing basically acts as one big metaphor imo, but it also didn't feel too on the nose. Stoked to hear what you guys have to say about it. Sorry I talk so much jesus christ.

2021-06-25 07:14:49 +0000 UTCI think it's safe to assume that pretty much any HitB or re:View about a horror movie is usually Jay's idea.
Brandon Melling
2021-06-25 04:42:01 +0000 UTCThe fuck did I just watch
Dane Liergaard
2021-06-25 04:26:22 +0000 UTCDang it I got this backwards and watched Ice Pirates before that re:view and now have no time to watch Censor.
Brian Pennington
2021-06-25 02:45:45 +0000 UTCThe fact that this is the movie you chose to do a June Half in the Bag for reminds me of why I related to you guys so much. Censor was the only notable movie coming out this month that I was really interested in. Much more so than any of the latest big Hollywood movies.
Michael Parker
2021-06-24 18:23:41 +0000 UTCHello - UK viewer here. I'm not sure whether Spaced made it across the pond, but if not, please check out Michael Smiley as Tyres - iconic character and performance. Also, Nicholas Burns (aka snarky colleague) was the ultimate hipster before hipsters were a thing in Nathan Barley - written by Chris Morris and Charlie Brooker. Thanks for being fabulous, can't wait for the review <3

2021-06-24 17:37:17 +0000 UTCSaw it in the theater without any idea of what it was. Really enjoyed it!
Johnny Mocny
2021-06-24 17:31:47 +0000 UTCHey I wanna thank you guys for the heads up here. I like the idea of “homework” from you guys. This movie was amazing by the way. Really draws you into the crazy. Anyway, it would be cool, in my humble opinion, if you find anything worth it, to pre-recommend a movie before the hitb. This makes me want to hear what you have to say more

2021-06-24 16:59:44 +0000 UTCThis was a Jay pick wasn’t it. Bruh.
Reynold Black
2021-06-24 15:36:10 +0000 UTCDunno if y'all will see this, but apparently Spring produces pint glasses now as part of their product lineup. Any chance of seeing a return of BotW glassware?
Jake Martin
2021-06-24 15:09:21 +0000 UTCNot a half second into the trailer: "Jay's idea."
Chris Esselborn
2021-06-24 14:56:05 +0000 UTCHa ha. The 13th warrior was a movie my friend consciously purchased on college for the express purpose of viewing on repeat. I think I've seen that movie more than 50 times. The funny part is we saw it in the theater too and knew it wasn't THAT worthwhile. It's good, but just barely. Rewatching it over and over was an exercise in irony and love for Antonio Banderas.
Josh
2021-06-24 14:43:27 +0000 UTCWatched it last night and loved it! Can't stop thinking about the last few minutes of the movie. Really creepy and has stuck with me all day. Did not really find it all that scary up until then but was a good watch nonetheless. Rarely do images stick with me the way the ending has.
Rod Gallow
2021-06-24 14:43:22 +0000 UTCI'd love for you guys to do The 13th Warrior. I realize I'm not the first person to say that, but still... Found you during COVID and have been a fan ever since. I look forward to anything new you guys do. Joining your Patreon only seemed fair considering how much joy I get from y'all. Keep it up.
Mike McCullock
2021-06-24 14:15:50 +0000 UTCI googled British Censor and got strange results. It also wasn't on pornhob. Also, Why isn't Sir Mix-a-Lot in politics? He likes big Budgets, AND, HE CANNOT LIE!

2021-06-24 13:10:11 +0000 UTCNot available for my country yet either apparently. I don't mind spoilers though so whatever.
Masa
2021-06-24 12:36:18 +0000 UTCThis is unreal, my friend directed the movie. She’s a phenomenal filmmaker. Im going to forward the review onto her once it’s up. Im so excited that my favourite film critics are reviewing this. To all at RLM, I’ve loved what you do since that Star Wars review, but in the last 18 months you’ve kept me going.

Dominic O'Neill
2021-06-24 08:20:01 +0000 UTCit was on my list! I'll watch it tonight then!

2021-06-24 07:50:18 +0000 UTCI liked the part with the censoring

Karen Morvan
2021-06-24 02:21:35 +0000 UTCInside no 9 is fantastic
Karen Morvan
2021-06-24 02:08:53 +0000 UTCIf it helps at all, the lead actress's name "Niamh" is pronounced Nee-uv or Neev. Ireland gave the world Saoirse now you have to put up with this too!
Stephen Murphy
2021-06-24 02:04:32 +0000 UTCOh it stars Niamh Algar. I really like her on Raised By Wolves.
Robert Daniel Pickard
2021-06-24 01:53:01 +0000 UTCThe movie reminded me of something the minds of Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton would create , especially inside no 9 , if anyone reading this hasn’t seen no 9 I highly recommend it , an anthology series of the ilk of black mirror but far superior in every way in my opinion
Subzerofeelings
2021-06-24 01:40:34 +0000 UTCOk I’ll watch it tonight right after this farting alien movie someone recommended me.
Shempin Jack Flash
2021-06-24 00:52:42 +0000 UTCHow dare you spoil something! How dare you, sirs! Haha
Michael Fuller
2021-06-24 00:34:06 +0000 UTCFantastic! Saw it last week and dug it. Was curious if you’d cover since it’s a little obscure but is right up your alley since it centers on 80s video nasties. Can’t wait!
Danny Serna
2021-06-24 00:26:17 +0000 UTCWatched it last night, perfect timing! Interested to hear about some the background on this one as I went in cold. Thanks guys!

diego kontarovsky
2021-06-24 00:11:14 +0000 UTCSadly it’s not out in the UK until August, and when I typed in Censor 2021 in Amazon Prime it came up with that awful film by Sia.
George Grimwood
2021-06-24 00:05:56 +0000 UTCI just need to know if it’s better than The Ice Pirates.
2021-06-24 00:00:28 +0000 UTCSpoilers: the protagonist has to watch Honorable Men and pierce the CENSORED ring by the Sayre brothers. Allegedly.

Red 1010
2021-06-23 23:35:18 +0000 UTCI would agree that it is a good movie. I gave it 4 out of 5 stars on Letterboxd if anyone cares to hear "some random guy on the internet's thoughts. https://letterboxd.com/mahaloth/film/censor-2021/
