This week, the Grue-Crew explores a pair of fiery females who take matters into their own hands, violently. The first film this week, RED LETTER DAY from director Cameron Macgowan, follows a family who receives letters demanding they kill the person listed inside, else that person will kill them. The second film, THE NIGHTINGALE from director Jennifer Kent (The Babadook), follows an Irish convict who seeks revenge after her husband and child are brutally murdered.

Doc a lifelong fan of horror films, sci-fi flicks and monster movies first discovering Universal Monsters and Planet of the Apes as a young child in the 1970's searching out every issue of Famous Monster of Filmland (and, later, Fangoria).
