Movie Meltdown - Episode 412

This week we visit the Cincinnati Comic Expo and discuss some of the goings-on at the event, as well as this week's Sofa Theater feature: Karyn Kusama's The Invitation. Plus we ask... what's up with all the indie movies about cults this Millenium?

And while we marvel at the wonders of the passé fidget spinners, we also discuss... Patchwork, fake Fall, The Gifted, new Blade Runner, Code Red, commandeered someone's cosplay sword, coyote murder, Ragnarok posters, I love movies... I love lists, John Carroll Lynch, riding a land speeder into Jurassic Park, Pom Klementieff, Mr. Bones candy, Kel Mitchell, getting a new vehicle, we're filling in the blanks, Daphne Zuniga, I hate Winter with a furious passion, Logan Marshall-Green, straddling a wheelchair, The Wiz, Stephen King, inflatable tyrannosaurus, if your costume needs an assistant, Wallace Shawn, stitching girls together, getting a wing to the eye, impractical costumes, each loser where they are now, stay spooky, Pom Klementieff , glows in the dark, attempting to read It, a bastard combination of Tom Hardy with a tiny bit of Jason Momoa thrown in, triumphantly riding around the convention, that's inconceivable, Tyler MacIntyre, eight million dollar bottles of wine Kool-Aid and Fox-related Plinko.

Spoiler Alert: Full spoilers for "The Invitation"... and you can definitely spoil this one. So see the movie before listening... you have been warned!

"Tone is so much... the drive of this movie."
