In this episode, we dive deep into a film we’ve been eagerly anticipating but have held off till now to give this movie our undivided attention for a first watch. So join us as we check out Matthew Holness’ Possum from 2018. Spoiler alert, there’s nothing but praise from us this episode for a truly remarkable film. But before all that, we take another Genre Exposure field trip to the movie theater to see what’s up with the explosion of nun horror that’s been going on. And so much more!
