Episode 86: They're all gonna laugh at you

Welcome back friends.  This week we have a whole heaping mess of good nerdy news stories as well as our streaming review of "Carrie" starring Chloe Moretz and Julianne Moore.  

This remake was on both of our lists to see in theaters but we never got around to it.  Now I can't say that I was sad that we missed it in theaters, as I don't think it really is something you HAVE to see in theaters but It was a fun romp.  Having never seen the original, but knowing plenty about the movie, this was a lot of fun to watch.  The scenes of bulling are just as prevalent now as they were then.  And Carrie's final telekinetic break down is a hell of a show.  With solid acting by both Moretz and Moore (fucking a was she disturbing) and some nice visuals this one garnered a solid 3 stars from Bat and 4 stars from me.  Also if you were wanting to hear the Adam Sandler skit I was talking about (it's stupid but it makes me laugh) you can check it out here.  I think it fits perfectly with this movie, in a bad kind of way.

Trying to carrie on (I did that one on purpose) the horror movie theme this month we have our next streaming review of Quarantine 2: Terminal.  This movie comes care of Bat's wife suggesting a disease movie to go along with the horror theme.  Sadly this 2 star movie is the best we can come up with.  If you want to see what you are in for then check out the trailer below.

If you want to join us on our third horror movie of the month you can find this movie on Netflix. You can send us your reviews or your suggestions for our next streaming review via Facebook, Twitter or email us at Batandhammer@gmail.com
