Content note: Both films in our double feature this episode contain themes of suicide, and we will discuss it during the episode. One film also contains child death.

Hello ghouls, we are back at it again with a nasty bummer of a double feature (positive) from what’s so far shaping up to be a nasty bummer era — the 2020’s. It’s just Candace and Ariel this time, talking about Bryan Bertino’s bleak and tough to pin down The Dark and the Wicked (2020) along with Demian Rugna’s mean-spirited romp through catastrophe, When Evil Lurks (2023)

Mind the content notes, but also consider: both of these films prominently feature goats and abandonment by god. How can you turn that down?
