In this episode, we continue our series of freestyle picks to start off the new year with Dustin’s selection. We check out his favorite feature from Fantasia 2021, Ultrasound directed by Rob Schroeder. Join us as we navigate the strange surreal mindbending corridors of the film’s narrative. Dustin goes up to bat for the film decrying it as underseen and underloved. Jason shares his appreciation for the way in which the story is told offering a grounded take on its more sci-fi leaning elements. But before all that, we took a Genre Exposure field trip to the movie theater just to see Skinamarink and we have thoughts. Buckle up as the hot takes fly fast and free. And so much more!
