ELEVATOR GAME MOVIE REVIEW

Based off of the urban legend of the same name, Elevator Game shows us a team of YouTubers who test out said urban legends. To play the game, you enter an elevator, punch in a specific combination of floor numbers, and if completed successfully you’ll be in a nether world. And that’s basically it. We’re given characters that are under developed, a boring plot, and endless mundane conversations in an elevator. It’s bad y’all. Not even good/bad, just bad. But hey, you might be one of those types who likes a little punishment… So stick around and listen to Melina, Matt, Chad, and T.C. just rip this movie to shreds… T.C. does give a thoughtful forward in the beginning though. We understand that movies can suck, but getting one produced and released is a giant feat that few have accomplished. So keep that in mind as you listen to us eviscerate this movie.

YOUR REVIEWERS

Chad Halvorsen (Screener Squad)

Chad Halvorsen currently resides in Milwaukee, WI, where he produces and edits commercials, films, and everything in between. He was always a fan of film/television growing up, spending days in the Summer, making (terrible) home movies with his brothers. Little did he know that passion would carry on into adulthood. Since 2006, Chad has worked for several agencies in various departments. Shooting, producing, editing, production management, directing, and when forced to, writing copy. In 2015, Chad decided to take the big leap and become a freelancer. Since then, he’s produced content for Lyft, AT&T, Target, and Discovery Network. His passion lies in entertaining people, making them feel better, even for a moment. All the pain and suffering of this business is worth it, if even just one person views his work. Chad is a frequent podcaster, most notably posing as a co-host for the podcast “The Film Illogical Society.”

Melina Eames (Screener Squad)

Melina first discovered that she carried the nerd gene at the tender age of four following her exposure to a little film called A New Hope. In the twenty-some years that followed, Melina continued to grow into her geek identity through the discovery of Batman, Mst3k, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings and The Mandalorian. But perhaps her most significant discovery came at the age of fourteen when a night of YouTube mining led her to the review site of Spill.com. Melina became a devoted follower whose fandom did not end with the site’s demise. By then, it had worked its dark magic and left her with a love and appreciation for film criticism that she has yet to shrug.

Matt Foster (Screener Squad)

Matt Foster is a stand up comic, podcaster, and movie critic currently living in the greater Salt Lake City area. His lifelong love of genre film began early, when he realized they freaked out his mom. He performs (epidemics permitting) regularly on Dungeons and Comedy, a DND live play with standup comedians, and is the slightly less mustache-y half of the Nighthawks Podcast, a cinema-centric discussion cohosted by Trevor T. Trujillo.

T.C. De Witt (Screener Squad)

T.C. De Witt is a multi-awarded writer/director originally from Wisconsin and now based in Los Angeles. His life has been devoted to the arts since he was a child. He’s been a stage performer, playwright, stand-up comic, film and television actor, radio DJ, podcaster published author, recorded musician, and comic writer/illustrator. He is now a professional screenwriter and has been thriving for the past decade, regularly offering his talents to production studios in LA, Chicago, Milwaukee, and internationally in Sydney and Poland. He’s provided content for Amazon Prime, Netflix, and several YouTube partners. His films have screened internationally, and his stageplays have been performed across the country. In the last ten years, he has directed 57 films, 23 episodes of his series The One Minute Rewatch, 300+ episodes of podcasts, and his multi-award-winning short film Screen: Righter screened at the Festival de Cannes in 2016. He has released two feature films, The Princess Knight and A Christmas Sunset. He thrives on collaboration and the thrill of sharing stories in all forms.

A HAUNTING IN VENICE MOVIE REVIEW

Poirot is tired. And I don’t mean because of the last two Kenneth Branagh starring/directed films being so blah. I mean, in this third installment of his adaptations starring Agatha Christie’s famous detective character, he’s hung up his magnifying glass. Hidden away in Venice and refusing to accept any new cases, his reverie on Italian sweets is interrupted by the arrival of an old friend, mystery writer Ariadne (Tina Fey). She compels him to attend a Halloween party with her held at the palazzo of a once famous opera singer Rowena Drake (Kelly Reilly). The reason is not just so he gets out of the house and actually interacts with other people, although he certainly could use that, but because a famed psychic, Joyce Reynolds (Michelle Yeoh) will be holding a seance to contact Drake’s deceased daughter. Ariadne wants to prove her a sham, but so far she hasn’t been able to and she needs the skills of Poirot to see through what MUST be flim-flam, right? Only things go terribly wrong, murder is afoot, the palazzo is famous for being extremely haunted and even Poirot is seeing weird stuff happening. Are there murderous ghosts as the legends say or is one of the seance attendees, now locked into the palazzo because of a violent storm, a killer? Chris, Spidermike, and Alan take up the case of A Haunting in Venice and surprise: they all genuinely liked it a lot. At least they were surprised. Be careful going into this one as there are spoilers for who the first victim is, as it’s difficult to talk about the film without revealing that much.

Christopher Lawrence Cox (Founder, Da Boss)

Born in the wilds of northern Virginia, Chris managed to put all of his survival skills to use and barely escaped with his life to Austin Texas in 1992 where ever since he’s dabbled in everything from plumber’s assistant to sandwich maker, from band to bar management. An opportunity to see theatrical release films for free by becoming a critic on a local public access show called “The Reel Deal” turned into a full-time job when Chris and his friends decided to take it to the internet. They built the site Spill.com, adding multiple podcasts and animated features, to no small amount of success. During this time, a fortuitous friendship sprung up between Chris and young Brian Salisbury, who was also a local film critic, and they merged their forces of will, and their laundry list of ideas for shows, to eventually build this community of critics. While Brian eventually followed his heart to a new family, Chris continues on with a cast of colorful folks from all over the country (and a few others). You can also check out Chris in his videocast, along with Martin Thomas and Danni Danger, that One Of Us does with our friends at Bell of Lost Souls: Crossover Event. He also regularly guests on the video game website Rage Select. Follow Chris on Twitter and Facebook and check out his Amazon Wish List.

Alan 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.

Michael Riojas (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews)

The man with the ever-changing nicknames. Born in Austin, Riojas was rocketed to Del Rio, Texas, a literal small ville. In his youth, he was bitten by a radioactive… okay, look. Mike is not very good at this whole “talking about himself” thing. But he has been so obsessed with comics, video games, and anime since childhood- that if one has to choose between listening to Joe Quesada or Mike over any obscure Spider-Man trivia, they go to him (or, at least Martin Thomas once said so). He is also a big fan of “Ghostbusters” (he even owns his own jumpsuit and two, that’s right, TWO proton packs!), collects toys and video games, and will defend “Superman IV: The Quest for Peace” if provoked. He lives in Austin with his beloved Dachshund-Maltese and trusted sidekick, Dean. He can also be heard on RageSelect. He can be found on Twitter and Instagram.

THE AFTERPARTY SEASON 2

The songs off the playlist are winding down. The frantic dancing has slowed to a shuffling of feet in the drunken embrace of a lover that never was, and all the kegs are empty. You know what that means, catch me at the AFTERPARTY! Apple TV presents Season 2 of Chris Miller’s Who-Done-hit, The Afterparty. Aniq (Sam Richardson) and Zoe (Zoe Chao) are attending Zoe’s sister Grace’s (Poppy Liu) wedding to the tech boy millionaire Edgar (Zach Woods). This timeless love is not to be as Grace finds her newly betrothed Edgar has run out of time forever. Edgar and his beloved Pet lizard have been poisoned and everyone at the after party is a suspect: A crypto-cursed ex boyfriend Travis (Paul Walter Hauser). Estranged uncle and man of the land Ulysses (John Cho). The mother and father of the bride, Feng (Ken Jeong) and Vivian (Vivian Wu). Best man and British charmer Sebastian (Jack Whitehall). The quirky adopted sister Hannah (Anna Konkle). And lastly the mother of the victim with a glass in her hand and a trigger happy accusational pointer finger (Isabel Elizabeth Perkins). Each suspect will recount their time at the afterparty in the stylings of your favorite film genre. Aniq, Zoe, and returning detective Danner (Tiffany Haddish) are on the case to solve the mystery of the murdered groom in The AfterParty Season 2. Bradly, Dogget, and Jordan discuss the inspirations of Agatha Christie, their favorite vantage points and character actors, and how surprised they were when the killer is revealed in the season finale.

Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)

Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.

Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)

Hey persons, it’s your favorite canine Dogget! As many of you know, I don’t identify as a critic as much as a classy shock jock. That being said, I do my best to give all of you a well-balanced review filled with my true opinions and hopefully a few laughs. You can occasionally find me on other persons podcast like Mission Impodible (that’ll be 10 dollars Nathan). For the most part, you can find me doing reviews on Oneofus.net.

Jordan Cobb (Screener Squad)

Born with a comic book in one hand, a camera in the other, and in front of the television as WrestleMania played out, Jordan Worth Cobb was thus birthed into this crazy world. A Digital Filmmaking major from the University of Central Arkansas, Jordan has done it all in film from directing, writing, editing, and producing in addition to skills involved in film and TV criticism, journalism, and years of podcasting experience. On any given day, her ADHD riddled brain bounces focus from film to pro wrestling to TV to superheroes to noir to video games to espionage and yes, even to sports. She played little league you know. For more of this eccentric nerd, you can follow her on Twitter here and read her original writings on Deepest Corners of My Notebook.

THE GOOD MOTHER MOVIE REVIEW

What is a good mother? Webster has no definition. I mean sure the words ‘good’ and ‘mother’ are both in the pages but separately and never defined together. Stuffy old Oxford is no better. Is a ‘good mother’ a baker of pies, sewer of buttons, assorter of sack lunches? Maybe a ‘good mother’ is just being there? Maybe all the mothers reading this should watch the episode “Baby Race” of an Australian kids cartoon called Bluey and have a nice healthy cry. Director/Writer Miles Joris-Peyrafitte presents a New York crime thriller about the death of a son and mother’s journey to find out the truth of white happened to him. Hilary Swank is Marissa, a widowed writer we meet at the funeral of one of her sons. Her child was a junkie and died while taking a routine jog. Also attending the funeral is Paige (Olivia Cooke) who wants to pay her respects to her former lover and let Marissa know that she is about to give birth to her grandchild. Paige, who has experience in narcotics and how to take them, will team up with Marissa to uncover the truth behind this mysterious death while Marissa’s other son Toby (Jack Reynor) , a police officer, will try to help his mother get over her grief and live for the family that’s still here. Bradly, Frank, and Melina open up their own investigation with plenty of paper, yards of twine, and post-it notes on what makes an intense slow burn female led thriller, discuss the pieces necessary to make a short film puzzler, and ponder if it’s even possible to top the masterpiece mini series Mare of East Town.

Frank Calvillo (Highly Suspect Reviews, Screener Squad)

Born and raised in South Texas, Frank currently lives in Austin and has been in love with movies ever since his father showed him some Three Stooges shorts when he was five years old. Today he loves all kinds of film, regardless of era, country, budget or genre. He believes every film has an audience and is at least one person’s favorite movie. After writing for Sight & Sound and Slackerwood, he now writes for Cinapse where his increasingly random taste in all flavors of cinema (from Rashomon to Mars Attacks!) continues to thrive. His ultimate goal is to write a script for his boyhood crush, Michelle Pfeiffer.

He is a ninja with Final Cut Pro and is armed with a mind full of mostly useless pop-culture trivia.

DIGITAL NOISE EPISODE 328: WATER STREAM SWAMP TANK

John and Chris take on this Herculean task of reviewing this massive stack of home releases. From a 4k upgrade to one of John’s all time fave superhero movies, to them disagreeing whether a new horror comedy is one of the best or worst ever. From giving credit where it’s due to a sorely underrated but over budgeted apocalypse film, to Christopher Walken basically being Hannibal in an A-Teamish movie. Lots to talk about, lots of fun to be had listening.

All titles were sent to Digital Noise by the distribution companies in question for the purpose of review. No other compensation was involved. The opinions here are our own.

MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN SEASON 1 REVIEW

For 85 years, the Last Son of Krypton has been fighting for truth and justice, and battling evil of all sorts. He balances a life as the superhero all other superheroes are compared to while living as mild mannered Clark Kent, working for the Daily Planet alongside the love of his life, Lois Lane, and his best pal Jimmy Olsen. Since the first appearance of Superman in Action Comics #1 in 1938, there have been 12 live action films, 9 tv shows, including several animated cartoons and films, each with their own style and their own devout following of fans. However you like your Man of Steel, there is a version for you to enjoy. In fact, there may be a current version waiting for you to fall in love with. At least that’s how the Screener Squad feels about it. My Adventures With Superman is the newest animated offering following Clark, Lois, and Jimmy as interns at the Daily Planet. The show combines a joyful, action packed tone similar to Avatar: The Last Airbender with the exploration of Clark’s new abilities and role as Superman seen in Smallville. Spider-Mike, Dogget, Chad, and T.C. soar through their fandom discussing their love for the big blue boy scout and why this show is so very good and gets so much so very right. And in a moment of life reflecting art, a technological menace worthy of Supes himself attacks one of the heroic Squad members mid-review!

THE NUN II MOVIE REVIEW

Valek the demon is back to scare the bejesus out a new group victims in The Nun II. Taissa Farmiga returns as Irene, the nun that defeated the nun in The Nun. With the aid of Debra (Storm Reid) she’s tasked to uncover the mystery surrounding grisly murders taking place all around Europe in 1956. We’re also introduced to a new cast of characters at an all girls school in the middle of France. Kate (Anna Popplewell) is a well meaning teacher that starts to have a slight crush on the new fix-it man (Jonus Bloquet) returning as Maurice. Things get spooky and nunny at the girl’s school as Valek (Bonnie Aarons) terrorizes the young girls. Listen to Wright, Nathan, and Drew as they discuss the sequel and if it truly holds up as creepy entry in the Conjuring Universe.

YOUR REVIEWERS

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.

Drew Tinnin (Screener Squad, Highly Suspect Reviews, Deliberations of Doom)

Drew Tinnin is a Rondo Award nominated interviewer and critic who has worked at SiriusXM’s Fangoria Radio and Fangoria magazine in NYC, as well as the London-based Dazed Digital. Currently a regular contributor to the Dread Central Network, he’s excited to join up with some old friends and other film fans on One of Us as a new contributor to Screener Squad.

Nathan Flynn (Screener Squad)

A recent transplant to Austin originally hailing from the wretched hive of scum and villainy that is the Midwest, Nathan Flynn has been a movie super freak since he saw “An American Werewolf in London” way too young and grew up worshipping the James Bond franchise and all things related to Cold War-era spycraft. When he’s not watching movies and being a constant defender of the Tron franchise, he can be found practicing his second biggest love: cooking (having been a chef for 10+ years) and hitting his head up against a desk to write screenplays that nobody reads. He also spearheads his own podcast on the Mission Impossible franchise titled “Mission: Impodible”. He can be found rarely posting on his personal twitter.

ONE PIECE SERIES REVIEW

King of the pirates Gold Roger (Michael Dorman) had fame and fortune beyond imagination. Before his execution he declared to all dreamers that his fortune was all there for the taking. You just have to find it first. A golden age of pirates has begun and sailors of all walks of life have set sail towards the grand line to claim Gold Roger’s fortune and become king of the pirates. Eiichiro Oda’s legendary ongoing manga OnePiece has been adapted into a Netflix live action series by Steven Maeda and Matt Owens. Monkey D. Luffy (Iñaki Godoy) , a carefree vagabond in a dingy, has made a promise to one day become king of the pirates. All he needs is a hardy crew and a map of the grand line. Roronoa Zoro (Mackenyu) has three swords and the ambition to be the greatest swordsman of all time. Nami (Emily Rudd) has a past, some secrets, and a love of cartography. Usopp (Jacob Romero Gibson) has tall tales of epic adventures but has never been on one of his own, but with his trusty slingshot his aim is as sharp as his tongue is silver. Lastly Sanji (Taz Skylar) is a chef with a nose for food and an eye for beautiful ladies. He wants to find an ancient legendary fish and cook the perfect meal. These strangers become friends, and then pirates, and face up against the swashbuckling wanted criminals of the sea. Amongst them are a circus themed pirate named Buggy (Jeff Ward), a fish man leading a revolution against land lubbers named Arlong (McKinney Belcher III) and they’ll also be chased by the law, specifically an old Navy Marine named Garp who knows Luffy more than most. Bradly, Dogget, and Matt break open the mead, eat some lemons, and discuss the success of anime adaptations, sing the praises of what the show accomplishes where other anime live action has failed, and together wonder what the OnePiece treasure could be.

YOUR REVIEWERS

Bradly Martin (Screener Squad, Eye on the Prize, Breakfast Pub)

Bradly Martin was born in the united states and grew up on a healthy diet of sports, films, and books. A rather shy lad who kept to himself, Bradly soon discovered the best way to know a person was to know what people liked. Throughout the years Bradly became a fan of many things and a fanatic of none. From Doctor Dre, to Doctor Strange and the who’s who of Whos. From Playstation to the Dreamcast and Marvel to DC. From LeBron James to James Bond and Lord of the Rings to Lord Palmerston (or Pitt the Elder if you agree with Wade Boggs) and is a huge fan of dad jokes and randomly obscure Simpsons references. Armed with a vast knowledge of comics, films, and pop culture. Bradly traveled the world making friends and sharing takes. As a young man Bradly married the love of his life young and grew older every year with each new child brought into the brood. If trends continue, Scientists predict that .2% of Canada (where Bradly and family reside) will be populated by Bradly’s children by the year 2029. You can hear him leading and listening to his favorite critics on the Screener Squad and Eye on the prize and maybe even provide some comments of his own.

Danny Dogget (Screener Squad)

Hey persons, it’s your favorite canine Dogget! As many of you know, I don’t identify as a critic as much as a classy shock jock. That being said, I do my best to give all of you a well-balanced review filled with my true opinions and hopefully a few laughs. You can occasionally find me on other persons podcast like Mission Impodible (that’ll be 10 dollars Nathan). For the most part, you can find me doing reviews on Oneofus.net.

Matt Foster (Screener Squad)

Matt Foster is a stand up comic, podcaster, and movie critic currently living in the greater Salt Lake City area. His lifelong love of genre film began early, when he realized they freaked out his mom. He performs (epidemics permitting) regularly on Dungeons and Comedy, a DND live play with standup comedians, and is the slightly less mustache-y half of the Nighthawks Podcast, a cinema-centric discussion cohosted by Trevor T. Trujillo.

BOTTOMS MOVIE REVIEW

From the writer and the director of the criminally underseen Shiva Baby comes this new high school raunchy comedy, Bottoms. PJ (Rachel Sennott) and Josie (Ayo Edebiri) are best friends, gay, and pretty much on the bottom rung of popularity at their school. And at their school, it is ALL about football. The big game is coming up against their long time rivals and all eyes are on the quarterback Jeff (Nicholas Galitzine) except for Josie who has eyes for his girlfriend Isabel (Havana Rose Liu) and PJ who is zeroing in on Isabel’s best friend Brittany (Kaia Gerber). But the two popular girls are way out of their league. So what are two unpopular lesbians to do? Make a female fight club. Ok, it makes sense when you watch the movie. Sort of. Bottoms is going for the surreal and black humor of something like Heathers and for Chris, Wright, and Beau, it comes close to being a cult classic but doesn’t quite go the distance. Tune for their reviews and weirdly timed allegories to the Great British Bake-Off.

STARRING: Rachel Sennott, Ayo Edebiri, Ruby Cruz, Havana Rose Liu, Kaia Gerber, Nicholas Galitzine, Miles Fowler, Fiorella Tekin, Dagmara Domińczyk, Marshawn Lynch, Punkie Johnson, Zamani Wilder, Summer Joy Campbell, Virginia Tucker, Wayne Péré

YOUR REVIEWERS

Christopher Lawrence Cox (Founder, Da Boss)

Born in the wilds of northern Virginia, Chris managed to put all of his survival skills to use and barely escaped with his life to Austin Texas in 1992 where ever since he’s dabbled in everything from plumber’s assistant to sandwich maker, from band to bar management. An opportunity to see theatrical release films for free by becoming a critic on a local public access show called “The Reel Deal” turned into a full-time job when Chris and his friends decided to take it to the internet. They built the site Spill.com, adding multiple podcasts and animated features, to no small amount of success. During this time, a fortuitous friendship sprung up between Chris and young Brian Salisbury, who was also a local film critic, and they merged their forces of will, and their laundry list of ideas for shows, to eventually build this community of critics. While Brian eventually followed his heart to a new family, Chris continues on with a cast of colorful folks from all over the country (and a few others). You can also check out Chris in his videocast, along with Martin Thomas and Danni Danger, that One Of Us does with our friends at Bell of Lost Souls: Crossover Event. He also regularly guests on the video game website Rage Select. Follow Chris on Twitter and Facebook and check out his Amazon Wish List.

Beau Paul (Highly Suspect Reviews, The Original Gentlemen, Screener Squad)

Beau Paul is an Austin native, an actor, and a writer. Sometimes all at once! Previously he has attempted to be an internet entertainer (the funny ha-ha kind, not the naked moneymaking kind) at Spill.com, and now here on OneOfUs.net. You can read his pithy witticisms and the retweeted material of funnier, cleverer people on Twitter or Facebook, and can buy him stuff on Amazon.

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