Its time for another film discussion, and this weeks episode of We Need To Talk About Movies Podcast we need to talk about Ari Asters fairy-tale folk horror Midsommar (2019), which is Trev's choice and one he considers to be one of the best horror films released in recent years but will Nath be as comfortable watching it?

After the tragic death of her family, tormented Dani (Florence Pugh) tags along with her spineless boyfriend Christian (Jack Reynor) and his friends Mark (Will Poulter), Josh (William Jackson-Harper) and Pelle (Villherm Blomgren) as they travel to Sweden for a ritualistic festival where it soon becomes clear that all is not what it seems.

This visual treat of a movie is a disturbing yet unconventional tale, unlike most horrors it is shot in glaring sunlight and amongst beautiful vibrant landscapes, likening it to the 1973 classic folk horror 'The Wicker Man'.
