The Toddcast

Boring zombie in the desert movie. The lead works out some of her co-dependency issues by being dependent on a zombie. Yeah. #itstainsthesandsred #amazon #peacock #tubi #31daysofhalloweenmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

From the makers of the BBC Sherlock, an adaptation of the classic bipolar character. Updated and James Nesbitt is unbelievable as both. Watch!!! #jekyll #bbc #31daysofhalloweenmovies #jamesnesbitt --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

A low-rent version of Final Destination. Not terrible but the acting is definitely stuntman worthy considering the amount of sky diving. #amazonprime #hex #31daysofhalloweenmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Supernatural thriller from late 90s with Denzel. Not sold? Best use of Rolling Stones "Time is on my side" ever. #31daysofhalloweenmovies #fallen #denzel --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Bill Paxton's directoral debut is an excellent film, period. It makes for scary watching because it feels like it could happen. Go in unspoiled! #31daysofhalloweenmovies #frailty #billpaxtonrip --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

When the director of Sharknado is in charge... sure the Asylum makes junk but it seems a waste when you can have decent sets and some modicum of SFX go to waste like this. At least Judd Nelson got a paycheck? #31daysofhalloweenmovies #danteshotel #tubi --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

This feels like you are getting several movies in one and the tonal shifts did not work for me. I enjoyed moments that really worked well, but as a whole, the parts are just better. Other Korean zombie flicks have done it better as have their possession movies. #tubi #thewailing #31daysofhalloweenmoves. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

A mockumentary with a Paranormal Activity bend, but definitely a more realistic vibe. Might need to check your brain from some of the turns and reactions, but overall worth the slow burn. #lakemungo #31daysofhalloweenmovies #tubi --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

The poster says it all " a whodunnit with teeth." Knives Out this ain't but it does have the fun "Clue" keep you guessing until the end. The werewolf is only moderately in this. But definitely worth a watch! #31daysofhalloweenmovies #werewolveswithin #hulu --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Trigger warning should apply as suicide is depicted quite a bit. Other than that, highly recommended. Won't be everyone's cup like the elevated horror of Babadook, but similar and effective. #smile #smilemovie #31daysofhalloweenmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Outside of Shaun of the Dead, is there a better zombie horror comedy? "Zombie Kill of the Week" and Columbus's rules are gold! Check out some of the best usages of Harrelson and Eisenberg ever. #zombieland #31daysofhalloweenmovies # --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Not breaking a lot of new ground, but does it so technically well it's easy to overlook. Tran could be another Mike Flanagan. Couture looked like he was having fun with genre twister and ripper. @coltontran and his usual suspects do a great job here. Reminded me of the movie that Cabin in the Woods might have been based on. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

A hodge podge of genre styling that does not mix. Cruise action set pieces with lack of humor really hurt, but so do dodgy special efx and bad story. #cruise #31daysofhalloweenmovies #themummy --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Unique spin on Dracula. Hoult and Cage rock as the not-so dynamic duo. The ending falters a bit but a lot of the lore really works for this update. #renfield #cage #31daysofhalloweenmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Do I buy the "Based on True Story?" Nah. Did @coltontran knock this out of the park? YEAH Effective thriller with a pregnant girl stuck inside. Do not want to spoil it, but check it out for FREE on #tubi now!! #31daysofhalloweenmovies #coltontran and co! --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

3rd Hercule Peirot by Branagh. Different but good. Supernatural thriller is downplayed but well acted and presented. #ahauntinginvenice #branagh #31daysofhalloweeenmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

No one, indeed. Forgo the silent home invasion rip of "Signs." The twist isn't really a twist and the execution, except for the opening invasion parts is boring. #noonewillsaveyou #hulu #31daysofhalloweenmovies --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Wish it had been better executed but the "Back to the Future" mash up with Friday the 13th just doesn't work. Go watch "Freaky" instead. #totallykiller #31daysofhalloweenmovies #totallyboring --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message

Yelchin kills in this adaptation of a Koontz character that really works. Nimble direction from Sommers wins. #31daysofhalloweenmovies #oddthomas #amazonprime --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/toddlyden/message

Yelchin and Farrell elevate the remake. Lots of ambiance and a great score add to the tension and story. #31daysofhalloweenmovies #frightnight #amazonprime --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/toddlyden/message
