On this episode of FHHF, we shock the world with an episode about a movie that isn’t the new Spiderman!

Nightmare Alley is a beautiful, brutal modern day Film Noir delivered to us by Guillermo Deltoro, based on the book of the same name. This was the second adaptation of this book, following the one in 1947 starring Tyrone Power, and this one didn’t get cut to pieces by Darryl Zanuck but unfortunately did just as poorly in the box office, overshadowed by a teenage superhero.

Tune in for this cozy episode about an original film, we’ll cover a little bit of the new along with the classic, and discuss the future of film as a whole.
