Episode 119: Obscure Horror Movie Remake: 'The Hitcher (2007)/'Deadly Illusions

Obscure Horror Movie Remake Month ends with a look at a movie from almost fifteen years ago. The film remakes an underrated 80s classic horror and puts its own unique spin on it. Can Michael Bay make it work?

Plus, a look at Deadly Illusions - an erotic thriller with an ending that is meant to be talked about.

The show starts with a talk about Amazon buying MGM. It was definitely huge news, but was it interesting? We also discuss Evil  Dead Rise, its place in the franchise and if we are looking forward to it.

We have never reviewed an erotic thriller before. We picked a doozy for our first one. Deadly Illusions has an ending that will invite discussion. But is that a good thing or a bad thing? We go over the difference between thought provoking and confusing, whether a  great ending forgives a bad movie, and why promoting your movie's ending as the biggest part of the film is a bad idea.

For the final week of Obscure Horror Movies Remake we review 2007's The Hitcher. We all have different opinions on the movies. How is the film like Ozploitation? How many explosions does a movie with constant car wrecks and helicopter crashes need? Is it okay for the hero to be a coward?
