Mark Loves Other Horrors – Not Just The Exorcist!

Extra Takes Only
Kermode & Mayo’s Take
Bonus reviews include ‘Dahomey’, Mati Diop’s latest, which sees 26 royal treasures from the Kingdom of Dahomey (in modern day Republic of Benin), which were held in a museum in France, returned to their rightful home; and ‘The Front Room’, a psychological horror written directed by the Eggers Brothers (brothers of Robert) in which a new mother is confronted with the hell of living with her creepy and boundary-crossing mother-in-law. This week’s One Frame Back is the best Tom Hardy performances to coincide with the release of ‘Venom: The Last Dance’. Mark and Ben take us through what’s worth watching and avoiding this week with the Weekend Watchlist/ Weekend Notlist. Plus, the duo answer your Questions (film-related) and Schmestions (non-film-related) - from Mark’s four favourite horror films other than ‘The Exorcist’ to suggestions for a listener’s new ‘The Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy’ tattoo to the habit they wish they could break.
