Special guest Caitlin Turner joins the Grue-Crew to tackle the French horror film Raw which caused quite a stir at a recent horror film festival. At TIFF last year, audience members were made ill watching this film. Imagine how excited The Black Saint is to see this film. Find out how it fares with his review. For the WHYBW segment, the Grue-Crew turn their attention to the latest DCEU entry Wonder Woman. Does the box office champion bode well for the future of the DC cinematic heroes? Dave dives into the Horror News of the Week with Adam Wingard helming the upcoming Godzilla vs King Kong film, The Mist getting a new bug-filled trailer, and the Dark Universe is set to unleash Dracula, The Phantom of the Opera, and the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Closing out the show Thomas and Santos participate in a battle of wits with this week’s Stump the Saint!
