Welcome back to the Morgue!
Double, double, toil and trouble. It’s a bloody day as the Morticians take on two cinematic adaptations of William Shakespeare’s “Scottish play”; both in grayscale and boasting formidable casts, but with 65 years and a wealth of cultural difference between them. No more boasting like a fool—this episode you’ll play before the purpose cools! Scrub in!

Each episode we cover news in the film, TV, and video game industries, before diving into review of a topical movie, and deeper discussion of a more obscure film chosen by one among us--the Morticians--and preferably one that the others haven't seen. This is where movies come to be examined. To die, or maybe, to be reborn. Scrub in!
