Episode 66: Annihilation

Welcome to Screen Tea Podcast! This week, your hosts are stepping into The Shimmer (aka 2018) to review Alex Garland's visually stunning sci-fi mind-twister, Annihilation! Prepare yourself for what is essentially a half-hour venting session as Lisha vehemently and aggressively questions what the hell supposedly makes this a good movie, Jules remains insistent that the movie is cool, dammit, and both of your hosts find themselves wheeze-laughing, admiring the visuals, and coming up with alternative movie taglines. Also included are mini-reviews for Alex Garland's 2021 film Men, and Shawn Levy's 2021 film Free Guy...because we do what we want, don't question us. This one's a ball, y'all (OR MAYBE IT'S JUST A TRICK OF THE LIGHT? FFS, WHO WROTE THIS SHIT), so snuggle up with your other-worldly doppleganger and enjoy!
