A fussy, dorky little man receives a letter from his long lost father seeking to make amends for abandoning the family. He travels to his father’s secluded cabin to reconnect with him, but now that he’s there his father seems to have forgotten he ever invited him. Plus he’s a real asshole. Not that his son is much more palatable himself.
We were so pleased with the number of listeners who voted for our next movie we decided to thank you by reviewing the runner-up as well. The Vast of Night is a period piece that wears its Twilight Zone influence on its sleeve. Check it out on Prime and join us in two weeks to discuss.
