Yes, we were as surprised as you are to hear that Nightmare Alley would be getting a Malaysian release. Here at Goggler, we’re big fans of Guillermo del Toro and are therefore thrilled to be able to watch his latest on the big screen.
On this episode of The Goggler Podcast, Bahir and Uma watch and review Nightmare Alley. They gush over Cate Blanchett. They wonder if this might be the performance that finally bags Bradley Cooper an Oscar. But mostly, they’re just glad to be able to watch adult dramas at the cinema again.

In 1940s New York, down-on-his-luck Stanton Carlisle endears himself to a clairvoyant and her mentalist husband at a traveling carnival. Using newly acquired knowledge, Carlisle crafts a golden ticket to success by swindling the elite and wealthy. Hoping for a big score, he soon hatches a scheme to con a dangerous tycoon with help from a mysterious psychiatrist who might be his most formidable opponent yet.
