The lights are out, and the monsters are in. This month, the gang dives into Wait Until Dark, Don’t Breathe, and Pitch Black—three terrifying reminders that nothing good happens after someone says, “Wait, where’s the switch?”

We return briefly to our Ricardo Darín series with a one-off episode, looking at Darín’s second collaboration with writer/director Fabián Bielinsky, The Aura. It’s about an epileptic taxidermist and a casino heist, and absolutely worth tracking down.

We wrap up our return to our Seven Samurai Family series with a B-movie that’s pretty bad but oddly still entertaining. It’s one of Jean Negulesco’s final films, The Invincible Six.

“Live fast, fight well, and have a beautiful ending.”
We continue our Seven Samurai Family series with a Roger Corman-produced sci-fi that fits the Seven Samurai bill while also cashing in on the Star Wars fever—it’s Jimmy T. Murakami’s Battle Beyond the Stars.
