  1. I hadn’t heard of The Secret of Marrowbone or The Lodgers. I’ve heard Unsane was pretyy good actually, but it’s not getting a lot of hype for some reason. I think people missed it. (Not that I’ve checked it out yet myself. lol) And how the heck did I not know The Strangers was already out? Grr! TOTALLY missed the ball on that one. Oh well. I’ll hope it gets to released to one of my streaming services soon then. LOL

    Love that you include the revenue too. Interesting to see it from that perspective!

    I want to watch it since it’s set in Spain. I think it may be dubbed. I need for it to rain so I can binge these!

  3. You’re a rainy day binge watcher too?! YES! That’s the greatest way to play catch up! LOL
