Infestation Fantastic Fest 2022: The Banshees of Inisherin

The Banshees of Inisherin Movie Review

THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN MOVIE REVIEW

Writer/director Martin McDonagh has reunited with Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, the two stars of his wonderful and criminally underseen In Bruges, for this new pitch-black comedy set in a small town during the Irish Civil War. Farrell and Gleeson have been drinking buddies for ages but when one day Gleeson up and decides he just doesn’t want to be friends with Farrell anymore, chaos erupts. He doesn’t really have a specific reason or anything Farrell did, he’s just ultimately tired of banality. Farrell doesn’t take this well and Gleeson’s response to Farrell’s pleading is…extreme. Listen to Wright and Alan take on this highly anticipated film that we were lucky enough to get at Fantastic Fest this year.

Chris HAlan Galinsky (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad, Deliberations of Doom)

Born and raised in Texas, Alan Galinsky is a lifetime movie fan. As a youth, he would rent multiple movies every weekend and go to the theater for the latest releases, and that pace has remained steady. When Alan isn’t watching movies, you can find him talking about movies. When he’s not talking about movies, you can find him playing music in the band Delicate Boys.

 

” width=Wright Sulek (Screener Squad, Digital Noise, Highly Suspect Reviews, Trash in the Can, Audio Editor)

Wright hails from the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. His passion for filmmaking brought him to Austin to study and make movies. Since then he’s had his hand in acting, writing, and directing his own short films with numerous like-minded film geeks he’s met along his journey. His newest interest has brought him into the podcasting world. He co-hosted a few different movie related podcasts such as ‘And Now This’ and ‘The Match Cut’. He currently co-hosts with longtime friend, Eric Samaniego, where they talk shop about the grimiest, trashiest, lost gems of movies on their show, ‘Trash in the Can’. Wright also guests and hosts reviews on Screener Squad and Highly Suspect Reviews as well as co-hosts Digital Noise with Chris Cox.
