Things are heating up for episode 2. Both Steve and I agree that Barbara and Andy Muschietti have only stepped up their game in this next chapter. With only eight episodes to play with, they are already putting together the mechanics that will converge plotlines into a climactic conclusion. In addition, the horror scenes that Ronnie and Lilly survive are lengthy, terrifying, and reflective of their real-world guilt.
After a brief recap, we discuss Easter eggs, character arcs, the two scare scenes, our favorite characters, and top scenes. Both of us rated this episode 4 out of 5 turtles.
Steve Barnes is guitarist for stoner metal band Introvoid, and also plays guitar for the cover band Rebecca Crow. All of Steve's stuff can be found at Sweetchildoftime.com.
Lindsey Dunn is a film critic with membership in both NC Film Critics and Southeastern Film Critics. She loves all things Cobra Kai, Netflix Dark, indie horror, and any stories about complicated relationships. You can find her at 1ofmystories.com and most social channels @1ofmystories.

Let's Debate the NC Film Critic Nominations of 2024 with Harrison Martin and Anthony Holden
Harrison Martin, Anthony Holden, and I came together to talk about the North Carolina Film Critics Association (NCFCA) nominees for 2024. The NCFCA is made up of 70 some members who either work or live in the Tar Heel state. To see the full list of nominations, as well as previous years' winners, visit the website.
This ambitious group boasts 27 categories of awards, including some unusual categories such as voice actor, directorial debut, breakthrough performance, the Ken Hanke Memorial Tar Heel Award for a film or person with a North Carolina connection, and a lifetime achievement award that honors a contribution to cinema in a different category each year. This year the group elected to award an achievement in cinematography. We chose to talk about 16 of the categories for this conversation. We encourage you to follow the group's business at ncfilmcritics.org or on Twitter @NCFilmCritics.
The final winners will be announced on January 3, 2024. Stay tuned until then.
