Fool's Views (2/1 – 2/28)

Hey kids,

As you can see below, February ended up acting as the rejoinder to last year’s 16-film exploration of Robert Redford’s onscreen career, knocking out another half dozen, including three first time views. Horror-wise, it was all Shout! Factory and an end-of-month Share the Scare gathering of Chicago fright friends that slayed the day.

As before, if you have any questions or thoughts about any titles that didn’t earn any rambling, start the convo and off we’ll go. Give us your two cents, and we’ll make sure you get some change back.

Enjoy!
