    17. Crawl (2019) Directed by Alexandre Aja

    Creature features aren't my thing...or are they? Crawl was so much fun to watch and with my favorite run time of 90 minutes! Not only did it have gators (my favorite animals) but it has Barry Pepper! Who doesn't love Barry Pepper? A strong female lead with a strong, easy to follow story, Crawl comes highly recommended. Watch it if you haven't already. Or listen to me, then watch it to see what the hell I'm talking about. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/casualfanyan/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/casualfanyan/support

    Have you ever felt nostalgic about a movie that featured a man turning into a snake and seeing the guy who played Jason Voorhees get shattered in some awful CGI glass?

    Oh what a fun movie this was! It's just too bad that it hit tons of bad luck when it first came out because our world is so f**ked. With a swift run time of 90 minutes, The Hunt is definitely worth your time. Great cast, great acting, great story, great comedy, great everything. Well, pretty much everything.
