End Credits #197 - May 5, 2021 (Things Heard & Seen)

This week on End Credits, we're going to get spooky again! It's been a while since we tackled a good, old fashioned ghost story (unless dead malls count), but we're going to make up for lost time with the new streaming hit Things Heard & Seen. It's not exactly breezy summer viewing, but we're also going to talk about the good old days of going to the movies in summer time.

This Wednesday, May 5, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss:

Summer Lovin' Part 1: 1982. Normally, this Friday would be the start of the summer movie season and the first of a long, string of blockbusters consisting of animated flicks, franchise entries, and tonnes of sequels. So if we can't have a regular summer season, then let's live vicariously in the past. To kick things off this week, we're going to go back in time nearly 40 years for the first great summer of sci-fi!

REVIEW: Things Seen & Heard (2021). It's another Netflix haunted house movie! This time, it's the Hudson River Valley in 1980 and a cursed farmhouse that's now the new home for an art professor and his wife. Amanda Seyfriend and James Norton play the couple, and while their new setting is idyllic. their marriage is far from being so. It's not exactly the best time to start dealing with a ghostly presence in their lives, but what about we, the audience? is this a good time, or are we going to bust this ghost story?

End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
