Sputnik – A Podcast Film Review by Damien Riley

Synopsis: The lone survivor of an enigmatic Russian spaceship incident hasn’t returned back home alone-hiding inside his body is a dangerous creature.

Most horror fans will agree, I can say based on my travels, that space and aliens are excellent themes for horror movies. Of course, Ridley Scott’s original “Alien” made the hair stand up on the back of the neck of a generation. I am proud to be included in that. Some more recent incarnations have failed in my view to do that but I pay props to that film, it set a gold standard for horror and gore in a mainstream sci fi film. “Sputnik” is an example of a film that comes close to that magic and mystique but in my opinion will not be adopted as such by the horror community because of the subtitles. 

In conclusion, I have avoided spoilers mostly for this one because I really want you to see it. Let me put it this way, I had 3 screeners across my desk this week and this was the best (2020) film of the three by a country mile, or a light year? If you can trust me to not dread the subtitles, I think you’ll have a great time with this film.

A young girl gets sucked into an MMORPG. The question becomes, is she really changing into horrific forms? The title lured me in. When I heard it was about a teen in her room getting messed with by sone internet spirit I was kinda not into it. Tonight however it sounded creepy enough so I watched it and did a short review. I recommend! 7/10. Very creepy with no jump scares.

Although the clown monster hit “It” of the same year may have ended up grossing more box office dollars, “Pet Sematary” is a much better horror movie written by Stephen King, in my opinion. The creepiness permeates and paves the way for a quaint yet terrifying tale of one family and a mystic pet cemetery just behind their house.

My podcast review of this visionary horror film.

Transcript auto generated

please listen carefully
this is my review of in fabric I’m so
glad I’m so glad I finally saw this
movie I’ve been wanting to see it for
several years I want to say this goes
back as far as 2014 I’m not sure and I
don’t see the date in front of me but oh
2018 so it doesn’t quite go that far
back
I think us old guys we reach a certain
age and we just think
we’re not old
and some of us are more than others I
guess I like to think I’m young at heart
but anyway this was 2018 which was
really not that long ago but
the reason I thought of 2014 is what is
my ultimate Arbiter of where I am in the
universe when I saw Tusk that’s right I
saw a desk 2014. but we’re not talking
about tests we’re talking about in
fabric
directed by Peter Strickland who
apparently has made a name for himself
this film is the different it’s like
people have called it Lynch meets Dario
Argento yeah there are moments like that
it definitely is simplified which I like
a lot
for example I was just watching last
night in SoHo yesterday and a bunch of
friends were telling me that it was so
good my friend Charlie Ray was telling
me it was so good and it was pretty good
it was better than I
had prejudiced about it because I when I
saw them doing the dancing with the
finger dancing in the 60s and all that
the fingers on the eyes and stuff I was
like no thank you don’t really want to
watch a whole movie of this and baby
driver was kind of like that so the
director kind of does that and I guess
for me that was kind of a hangout
everybody has Hang-Ups right you have
something you can’t get Beyond
for some people it’s an actor
for a lot of years I didn’t really like
Jon Voight but I forced myself to watch
his movies and I just ignored that I
didn’t really like him as a private
person
and I love him as an actor so it can
happen he just gotta look at yourself as
an artiste and an appreciate excuse my
language today I appreciate her I don’t
mind my tongue there I am appreciator of
movies and I hope you are and I know
most people who listen to this are so I
would just say hey
couple things actually I figured
something else out too
if you
look at this movie
you’re gonna find something quite
different than what you probably suspect
so do not be prejudiced toward this
movie do not be prejudiced toward any
movie
but especially those of you that don’t
just hang on the latest greatest four
out of ten
film for high school kids drinking beer
which maybe some of you are like that I
have a few in that age range that listen
at least they used to hopefully they
still do hello out there
the point is there’s a lot to be
prejudicent about with this movie and I
can’t tell them today for some reason I
need to get myself a nice route here
but before I do that
please see this movie it’s excellent
you’re gonna find a lot of creepy things
going on that you’re not really going to
understand you’re going to see a lot of
things that
I think come from like sort of the Blade
Runner time when films were being made
at that time there’s like a lot of that
kind of a feeling there’s a kind of a
