Horror Movie Weekly Ep. 078: The Laplace's Demon 2019

After slackin’ and taking a week off, we have a great episode for you… (Only Jay was slacking; his co-hosts weren’t.) Here in Episode 078 of Horror Movie Weekly, your late-night Horror hosts — Jay of the Dead, Channy Dreadful and Mister Watson — bring you a Feature Review of a lesser-known cinematic oddity, a black-and-white Italian film called The Laplace’s Demon (2019). We also bring you our famous Micro Reviews segment and a rip-roaring good time. Remember, you’re always welcome to call and leave us a voicemail at (801) 215-9704. Join us!

Note: This episode was recorded on February 7, 2021 (after the Super Bowl), and released on February 28, 2021.

This weekly Horror movie podcast brings you one recent Horror movie review every Sunday. (We’re defining “recent” as any Horror movie released within the last five years, so now that it’s 2021, we’ll be covering Horror films from 2016 to the present.) And we always reveal next week’s pick at the end of every show, so you can watch along with us and be prepared for the following episode. Join us, and thanks for listening!
