Janelle Monae is a successful author who finds herself mysteriously transported back to the South during the Civil War and enslaved at a plantation. She has to figure out what happened and if there’s any way to get back to the present in the upcoming horror/thriller Antebellum.

This week on the podcast, Zach and Chris dive into the first Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark and Dora the Explorer trailers, the epic runtime of Avengers: Endgame, Clint Eastwood and Burt Reynolds teaming up in City Heat, Jordan Peele’s Us, the first episode of What We Do in the Shadows and more.

Jordan Peele’s follow-up to Get Out, Us is a tense and creepy horror thriller with some amazing dual performances from it’s cast, especially Lupita Nyong’o and Winston Duke.

Jordan Peele’s follow-up to Get Out blew away it’s predecessor, and almost every other horror movie ever, with a $70+ million debut and the largest opening for an original live-action film since Avatar.

According to critics, Jordan Peele has apparently crafted another horror masterpiece with this weekend’s only new wide release, Us.

Octavia Spencer stars as Sue Ann aka Ma, who befriends a group of teens and lets them use her basement as a hangout but she soon becomes more and more creepily obsessive.
