It has become a tradition around Halloween that we find movies that deal with our ACTUAL fears. For this episode, Mike has revealed his own fear of getting old and the changes that come along with that. We start off with 2014's "Taking of Deborah Logan", which focuses on an elderly woman, fading into senility who allows her day-to-day activities to be filmed as part of a study of alzheimer's disease. Things quickly swing into the supernatural, growing steadily into pure horror. We follow that up with 2024's "The Substance" starring Demi Moore and Margaret Qualley as opposite sides of the same coin. Moore is an aging celebrity who gets a mysterious offer to try a process that will release a younger version of herself. She can't resist the temptation and we meet her younger version played by Qualley. This movie has a LOT to say about Hollywood, aging, society and so much more. Both of these films are worth watching, and force the viewer to consider their own twilight years. Please let us know what you thought of the show, and send us some suggestions for future episodes.
