Once again, America has taken a look at the a la mode(p) revisionist fairy tale and sighed a collective, "Why?" pitch the devil Slayer flopped at the box-office in its opening weekend, despite a mammoth budget, attractive leads, and director Bryan Singer expanding the story of a humble peasant vs. a ravenous giant into something that incorporates a plucky princess, an enchanted crown, a sardonic soldier, a state of war between giants and humanity, and much, (maybe too) much more. But is the audience's resounding apathy merited?

Plus: Steve gives his capsule review of The remnant Exorcism Part II, and what's coming to theaters next week.
