Spoilers for WestWorld season 3 abound, sweeties. (My original title for this piece was Two and a Half Men. You’re welcome.) The line I stole the title from is in Grosse Point Blank and it’s been rattling around my brain ever since the Westworld season finale: Where are all the good men dead? In the heart, or in the head? …
Editor’s note: spoilers Lee Cronin has just been tapped to direct the new Evil Dead movie. It takes under two minutes of The Hole in the Ground to realize why.

Editor’s note: spoilers. And If you haven’t figured out why these two movies are being compared this week, here’s why. If The Vast of Night is a salute to the Spielbergian Americana ideal, then Attack the Block is standing off to one side yelling ‘WANKERRRRR!’ at the same ideal.
