Ezekiel Sims

So it must be in 2001.

And it introduces a character called Morlan, and it introduces a character called Ezekiel Sims.

Ezekiel Sims was recently the villain in the Madame Web movie, but the less said about that, the better.

But he basically...

I could not have told you that.

Um...

So he plays a character called Ezekiel Sims.

Look him up if you've got your phone on you.

Because he looks...

bumps into three of the girls beforehand, which is all like, oh, it's timey-wimey, webby-webby,

whoa.

Meanwhile, Ezekiel Sims is like, I've got the big computer.

And I have nightmares about being killed by three spider women.

I've seen that man before.

So who is he? Ezekiel Sims.

He was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders right before she died.

Oh man, do you even remember the name of that film? I'll give you a hint.

He's been in a couple of episodes of The Boys, and he had a recurring role on the show Gen V, while O'Connor is another HPH alumnus, thanks to their part as Nyla in the 2020 film, Freaky, where they play a similarly supportive Black friend who otherwise gets very little to do.

But in between that film and this one, they were in the two Ghostbusters: Legacy sequels as Lucky, and they appeared in the ill-fated Madame Web movie as one of the future Spider-Women hunted by Ezekiel Sims, although none of them get to actually become Spider-Women in the movie, which may be why it failed.

There is a future, by the way, in which every single major cast member of Madame Web will be a Half-Price Horror alumnus, including Adam Scott, and I don't quite know how to feel about that.

And that just leaves Anna Camp as Sidney's next-door neighbor, Jessica, who kind of paws at the edges of the narrative for the first and second act, asking to be let in, and Ethan Embry as Marco Davis, the supervisor of a mental hospital where Stu may have spent his time between the original Scream and this movie.
