The Book of Henry: Murder Plots, Necromancy, and... Matt, Why?

Description

Last night, we dove headfirst into The Book of Henry, a movie so wild it feels like a fever dream. Join us as we unpack the story of a child prodigy who dies in his mother's arms, a girl enduring unspeakable abuse, a mother pressured into committing murder, and a family navigating the failings of every system imaginable. Oh, and let’s not forget the potential dabble in necromancy because, sure, why not?

We explore the bizarre tonal shifts, the baffling plot choices, and why Matt keeps picking the weirdest/worst movies for the show. Is this a misunderstood masterpiece or a cinematic trainwreck? That's not a real question because the only thing misunderstood is the creator's idea of a family movie. Either way, it’s hilarious. Tune in for our breakdown of The Book of Henry!
