We had pretty high hopes for Bad Times at the El Royale, and with good reason. All of us LOVED Cabin in the Woods, director Drew Goddard’s last feature. We all love everyone in the cast, and now we love the newcomers. We all thought it looked like it was going to be visually stunning.

And we weren’t wrong, per se. The entire cast top to bottom was incredible. This was a movie built for actors to show off, and they do. And Bad Times at the El Royale was indeed visually stunning. The set was beautiful and interesting, the lighting and cinematography was phenomenal. It was great to watch all around.

So why didn’t we just flat out love this movie? Well, you’ll have to listen to find out the details, but in short we just felt like it was missing something in the story. It needed one more element to tie it all together. Find out exactly what we thought on today’s episode of So…I’m Watching This Show!
