Episode 123: The Lodge

*** WARNING: This episode contains discussion of topics which some listeners may find distressing ***

Episode 123 of The HD Movie Podcast is here! Is it a movie? If so, Hayley Alice Roberts and Darren Gaskell will discuss it. Doesn't matter about the year or the quality.

This week, disturbing, psychological horror is on the menu in the form of Veronika Franz and Severin Fiala's THE LODGE! The new fiancée of a previously married bloke gets to spend some quality time with his kids at a remote location. What could possibly go wrong? Obviously, lots.

Your hosts talk about a Chekhov's Gun that's actually a gun, some terrific performances, the appearance of a trope that usually winds up the folks at HDHQ and there's plenty of discussion about that ending. Oh, that ending.

Something that's quite easy to get Lodge-d in your head (okay, apologies for that one) is the music of Mitch Bain, who writes and performs the tunes you hear on the podcast. You can find him on social media: @whoelsebutmitch on Twitter, evertheoptimitch on Instagram.
