The Brutalist

Welcome to Week 67 of The Popcorn Pundits! This week, we’re diving into two very different cinematic experiences that promise to challenge your perceptions of history and horror.

First up is The Brutalist: When a visionary architect and his wife flee post-war Europe in 1947 to rebuild their legacy and witness the birth of modern America, their lives are forever changed by a mysterious, wealthy client. Can their ambition and passion withstand the turbulent forces of a new world, or will hidden secrets crumble their dreams?

On Peter’s homework front, he’s taking on The Cabin in the Woods: A group of kids head off to a remote cabin in the woods, only to discover that their fate is being manipulated by a team of technicians. In a world where every horror movie cliché is part of a grand, global sacrifice ritual, just how much control do we really have over our destiny?
