This week, Aaron and Derek cover 2016's Persian-language psychological horror film "Under the Shadow" written and directed by Babak Anvari. They spend time discussing the historical background of the Iran–Iraq War and War of the Cities that sets the backdrop of this movie. They also talk about the universal feelings of horror shown throughout the plot, how the elements of war are incorporated, and the meaning behind living "under the shadow." Derek and Aaron may disagree on how scary it is, but they both agree that this is an amazing flick to check out.
