Episode 108 - We Review A Surf Horror Film + Olympics' BreakdownFamously Matt does not watch any horror or thriller films, until the last week. Watching Kerby Brown's Facing Monsters, he quickly realised this was a Surf Horror film, that is made to the highest standard. All jokes aside, that Kerby and his brother manage to pull off is nothing short of elite level, but with a giant side dish of terrifying. We can't recommend this film enough, it's on par with Free Solo and 14 peaks. ...
