In episode 121 of the Red River Horror podcast, host Joe Zakrzewski and Eddie Caiazzo dive into three recent selections in horror cinema, speaking specifically about the films:

• HIM - Produced by Jordan Peele's Monkeypaw Productions, directed by Justin Tipping, starring Marlon Wayans and Tyriq Withers.  This sports-themed horror film seems like it's out for blood.  A lot of it.
• Weapons - Zach Cregger, the director of Barbarian, brings a new tale of terror starring Julia Garner while introducing a horror villain that rivals the top baddies in the space.  Weapons is a MUST SEE.
• Together - Not to be confused with the other horror film with the same name! This movie is a claustrophobic nightmare about a couple, played by Dave Franco and Alison Brie, who must survive a supernatural threat in their own home.
