Erik Childress and Steve Prokopy tackle seven new films this week. They include a couple from Sundance they have not talked about yet from the 2-part documentary on HBO MAX from Amy Berg about Evan Rachel Wood’s traumatic relationship with Marilyn Manson (Phoenix Rising) and Regina Hall in a ghost story about racial dynamics on a college campus (Master). Steve reviews about a Buddy Guy apprenticeship (The Torch) and Erik handles an odd hostage comic thriller with Jason Segel, Lily Collins and Jesse Plemons (Windfall). There is a better example of the singular setting chess game in a thriller with Mark Rylance and Zoey Deutsch (The Outfit), but also a peculiar misfire from Adrian Lyne garnering an early reputation of “so bad it’s good” (Deep Water). Finally, they dig into what makes Ti West’s new film stand apart from so many other slaughterhouse tales (X).
