All aboard! We choo-choo-choose you on this episode of CINEMA SMORGASBORD SELLS OUT and we’re checking out the 2025 drama TRAIN DREAMS starring Joel Edgerton, with Felicity Jones, Kerry Condon, and William H. Macy! Based on the beloved novella Denis Johnson, we follow 80 years of the life of Robert Grainier, a logger (and later hermit) who faces love, loss, triumph and tragedy at the turn of the 20th century. BUT IS IT ANY GOOD? I guess we’ll talk about it until we reach a conclusion.
On this episode of the podcast, Julie and Nick take a look at The Occupant of the Room, director Kier-La Janisse’s adaptation of the Algernon Blackwood short story for The Haunted Season, now streaming on Shudder. They also suggest some more spooky winter folk horror, while also digging into director Mike L. Taylor’s wildly unhinged Christmas film Gnome Sick: 7 Slays Til Mithras, now streaming on Tubi and available on Blu-ray from Dark Star Pictures. Plus, the pair discuss trailers galore for Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, Mother Mary, the Boulet Brothers’ A Holiday of Horrors, and more (all of which you can check out in the show notes), while running down some short tastes in Teaser Corner. All this and Julie and Nick share stories of their worst hotel stays before welcoming director Corbin Rowell of Mad Crab Productions to discuss his new short film, A Raven’s Call — and how he came to horror — in The Gate.
