Mashley at the Movies

We watched a new movie, and it made Matt a little cranky. Listen as Ryan joins us to review The First Omen .

The world in the grip of the Coronavirus, and we here at Mashley at the Movies are on semi-lockdown. Movie theaters have temporarily shuttered across the country, and so for the next several weeks we'll be catching-up on cinema we missed (or decided to re-watch), and will be offering our thoughts on those selections. Up first, and in keeping with the times, we have 1995's Outbreak , and 1971's The Andromeda Strain . Both are films about some really nasty viruses. Then, we review 2017's The Bookshop , about, well, a bookshop. We hope you are staying healthy and well during these stressful times.

This week we review two very different movies. Up first is a thriller about a broken family that decides to spend Christmas at an isolated house, with a potential stepmother who has some dark secrets. Then there's the latest adaptation of an evergreen Jane Austen novel about a matchmaking young woman in early-19th century England.
