Episode 181 - Beau is Afraid & Evil Dead Rise (w/Math Teacher Movies)

It's a horror filled weekend as Dom is joined once again by Sean of Math Teacher Movies to break down the latest film from auteur Ari Aster, the disturbed mind behind "Hereditary" & "Midsommar," his third feature film, Beau is Afraid. An Odyssean, Lynchian journey centered around Joaquin Phoenix's character Beau, who is attempting to avoid the mass amount of crazy people surrounding his apartment who takes a lot of medication for his perceived anxiety to get to his mother's (Patti LuPone) funeral. He ends up getting kidnapped by a suburban couple (Nathan Lane, Amy Ryan) who are attempting to use him to replace their son who died; a forest theater troupe that shows him his potential future; reunites with a former crush (Parker Posey) before going through one of the most bonkers climaxes of all time. It's a whirlwind of emotions and events that is all a representation of Ari's inner anxiety and insecurity, not to mention it sours by at 3 hours. They also take a minute to talk about Evil Dead Rise, the latest installment in the Evil Dead franchise, which is just as bloody and disgusting as the last few. It's all covered here on the #talkintvpodcast as they get closer to the summer!
