TFR Ep. 679: V/H/S/85, Anderson/Dahl Netflix Shorts, Call It!
Chris Scalzo
This week on The First Run, dem bois resist the siren song of our future pop overlord and her brainwashed horde by skipping the theater this week. That’s right…Chris and Matt stayed home…and it was glorious. The guys keep spooky season rolling with the latest installment from the V/H/S found footage horror anthology with Shudder’s ‘V/H/S/85’. Then they take a hard right turn into a completely different kind of creepy with four Wes Anderson short films based on the writings of Roald Dahl: ‘The Wonderful Story Of Henry Sugar’, ‘Poison’, ‘The Ratcatcher’, and ‘The Swan’ . As always, they break down the Big Releases on Physical Media, give you the Streaming and Straight to DVD Picks of the Week. Then Matt and Chris wrap it all up with a round of their pick ‘em game, Call It! So let’s pop in the tape and adjust the tracking for another episode of The First Run!
