The Menu (2022): "Yes Chef"

Hello, we’d like to order one black comedy done well, please. This week, The Menu (2022) is what’s on the menu for Spooky Tuesday, and we’re breaking down the stunt casting that might’ve been, the cannibalism that should’ve been, and the iconic line-reading of the word “tortillas” that definitely was. In a film all about exactly what ingredients are needed to make real art, it’s clear that this project has a true love for creation baked in.
