#65: The Perfect "Companion" (2025)
"Companion" (2025) is "Barbarian" creator Drew Hancock's latest horror comedy treat. A perfect date night movie, it follows a girl who goes to a cabin weekend with her boyfriends friend group that goes horribly awry. Falling somewhere between 2011's "You're Next" and the masterful 2014 "Ex Machina," "Companion" explores gender politics, the ethics of technology and modern love.
I also talk Met Gala 2025 & what I've been reading lately.
