Description

The streaming giants keep rolling out their own Halloween specials and this week it is Hulu's turn at bat with the recreation of Clive Barker's horror spectacular Books of Blood. But get ready for more than just a movie review... Chris declares that Horror movies arent horror unless they meet a very specific and strange criteria and we try to boil it down.

Join the Critically Aroused crew on a journey of free thought as they develop a refreshing film criticism counter-culture where its okay to disagree with out-of-touch film critics. The divide between movie critics and general audiences seems to grow more every day and its time someone put it under a microscope. Are critics too politically driven, too close to the industry, or just too disconnected to relate? Maybe it’s all of the above and then some, and they are determined to find out! Get controversial and dissect tomato scores week to week with host Blaine Andrews and fellow movie lovers Chris Cowles and Matt Verlaque as they hypocritically review the latest in film and TV while attempting to predict, discuss, & critique the overall critical response.
