Hello fiends. It's a big bonus week here at GoodTrash. The chute is open, and there's a new drop in your feed. This week, we're talking about the highly anticipated new release from Coralie Fargeat The Substance. Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley lead this satirical body horror, but do they succeed in making it memorable? Dalton is joined by our dear friend, the Frightful Femme, Kirsten Therkelson to discuss this new release. And Arthur pops in at the end to make his thoughts known. So, tune in to hear our reviews of The Substance. 

Hello friends! We're back from the picture show—in this case, Netflix—to discuss the brand new Jeremy Saulnier action-thriller Rebel Ridge. We here at the GenreCast are big fans of Saulnier's previous efforts, and Dalton has been champing at the bit to talk about it. So, he called in some good friends from The Cinematic Schematic: Caleb Masters and Laron Chapman. Is this new picture, streaming exclusively on Netflix, worth your time? Dalton, Caleb, and Laron parse it out in this Rebel Ridge review.

Dalton and Arthur hit the chute this week in response to the new M. Night Shyamalan experience, TRAP. With a fun premise, a great trailer, and elder statesman Josh Hartnett, the excitement was high for Shyamalan's new film. But, does it meet expectations? Or does the trap spring too early? We break it down with our mostly spoiler free reviews, but we do get into SPOILER TERRITORY around the halfway to two-thirds mark. So, tune in to hear us break down our thoughts on TRAP.
