Episode 51 - Sisters

Published: Aug. 15, 2019, 11 a.m.

No, not the 2015 Sisters with Tina Fey… the 1973 Sisters with Margot Kidder! Even as a clear homage to the work of Alfred Hitchcock (complete with Bernard Herrmann score), Brian DePalma puts his own stamp on it as only DePalma can. With a winding plot and psychedelic third act, Sisters earned a “rent” from both Ryan and Tim, in spite of Ryan needing a little help clarifying the nuances of the story at times. Regardless, it touches on one of our favorite, recurring fear-points in horror: the uncertainty of our own reality.
