For this Special Thursday Cinema Night, 8PM EST, things are getting a little spooky, since Halloween is just around the corner. First up is Raw (2016), a critically-acclaimed French body horror about a young vegan woman in veterinary school who eats raw meat for the first time as part of a hazing ritual and quickly develops an insatiable hunger for human flesh. Carnism is bad, okay? Director is Julia Ducournau, who also did another body horror film, Titane (2021), which we have not yet watched.

After that is Nope (2022), a hit thriller from Jordan People (Get Out [2017], Us [2019]) about a big hole in the sky that appears above a California ranch and starts eating people. Aaaaahhh!! Will anyone escape its wrath? I guess we’ll find out. Good reviews, and it raked in a lot of money at the box office.

We’ll start at 8PM EST on Hextube, right here:
