GBW #20: The Killer is Me (Magic / Monkey Shines / The Pit)

<p>Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed "good," "bad," or "what!?" within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor's filmography, and more!</p> <p>On this week's episode, Chris and Ryan look at horror films in which our lead character channels a murderous personality through another vessel. We start with "Magic," the Richard Attenborough film from 1978, with a bravura lead performance from Sir Anthony Hopkins as a magician who rekindles a relationship with an old high school flame (Ann-Margret) but can't get past the disagreeable part of his persona which he channels through a foul-mouthed dummy. Then, we move into the great George Romero's biggest misfire, 1988's "Monkey Shines," before finishing it out with one of the weirdest films you will ever see: 1981's "The Pit."</p> <p>You can find this and future episodes on our website&nbsp;<a href="https://www.thegoodbadwhat.com/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">thegoodbadwhat.com</a>.
