On the podcast this time, Steven and Sean are just trying to get people to believe that there\\u2019s something after us, damn it! We watched the 2022 film from Parker Finn, Smile.

Once you witness its horror, it\\u2019s stuck with you\\u2026 forever and ever. Unfortunately, that \\u201cforever and ever\\u201d is only something like a week at most, but yeah, it\\u2019s sticking around to torment you.

Double unfortunately, the \\u201cit\\u201d in that previous paragraph isn\\u2019t something like a delicious bowl of ice cream. No, it\\u2019s a repressed horror from the depths of your mind. It\\u2019s reliving trauma over and over.

It\\u2019s also a troubling concept for a film, with an ending that some (including us) may justifiably call irresponsible. It\\u2019s a rare film\\u2014perfect for this Halloween season, but also a contentious watch.

Continue this month of spooky episodes with some popcorn in your lap, hopefully all of the lights on in your home, and a big ol\\u2019 smile stitched across your face.
