In the latest episode of The Obsessive Viewer Podcast, I'm joined by my friend Sam Watermeier to review You're Cordially Invited and to discuss the recent Scream 7 casting news. I also review Love Me in this week's secondary review.

RT @shitposts_mp4:

2004's Taking Lives desperately wanted to be Se7en and ended up feeling like a cheap knock off. But despite its many faults, I still had some fun with it. Here's my ★★★ review blurb of Taking Lives on Letterboxd

Dick Tracy is a lot of fun, if a big long. Wasn't expecting such a unique and vibrant style. Here's my quick ★★★ review blurb of Dick Tracy on Letterboxd

Valentine's Day feels like they had the concept for an ensemble romcom and then cranked out the script over a couple lunches. Here's my ★½ review blurb of Valentine's Day on Letterboxd

My review of Severance season 2, episode 4: Woe’s Hollow is up now on Patreon! This episode is fantastic.

Heart Eyes is really only "just okay" but something about it activated my nostalgia in a surprising way and I really had fun with it because of that. More on next week's ep of OV. For now, here's my ★★★½ review blurb of Heart Eyes on Letterboxd

Here's a running Letterboxd list of all the movies I've reviewed on the podcast this year with links to the episodes in the descriptions:

Early access to tomorrow's OV ep is up on Patreon now. Patreon members also have a b-roll recording and an exclusive Companion Ep reviewing Burning and Underwater. Sign up for all that & more on Patreon.

Love Me feels a bit derivative at first but becomes a pretty unique look at the complexities of human relationships as experienced by a satellite and a buoy. More thoughts to come on this week's OV ep. For now, here's my ★★★★ Letterboxd review blurb:

You're Cordially Invited was a mixed bag for me but better than I expected it to be. More thoughts to come on this week's OV ep. For now, here's my ★★★ review blurb of You're Cordially Invited on Letterboxd

Though it's pretty derivative, I still liked Underwater a lot more than I expected to. Here's my ★★★ review blurb of Underwater on Letterboxd

Didn't know much about Burning, so I went into it expecting a love triangle drama. Did not expect a slow burn Hitchcockian psychological thriller. Wow. Check out my ★★★★½ review blurb of Burning on Letterboxd

I feel a little bit like a party pooper, but I expected Kindergarten Cop to be more silly than it was. Here's my ★★½ review blurb of Kindergarten Cop on Letterboxd

Meh. The Bone Collector didn't do much for me. Cookie cutter thriller with underdeveloped characters. Here's my ★½ review blurb of The Bone Collector on Letterboxd

I have nothing but love for this entire franchise. Here's my ★★★★ review blurb from my rewatch of Scream VI on Letterboxd

The most disturbing and dystopian thing about Severance is the probable existence of "Severance Bros" -

Companies with hybrid work styles should offer hazard pay for that feeling you get when you're in the bathroom on remote days and you hear the Teams message notifications going off in the next room.
