Action, chaos, and star power collide.
The Wrecking Crew (2026) brings together a high-octane cast for a globe-trotting mission packed with explosive set pieces, sharp humor, and buddy-action energy. Can Bautista and Mamoa capture some magic? Does it deliver on its promise, or does it get lost in the wreckage?

This week, we’re reviewing Bugonia (2025), the latest from director Yorgos Lanthimos. Starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, Bugonia leans hard into paranoia, power, and absurdity, following two conspiracy-minded men who kidnap a powerful CEO they believe may not be human. Listen as we break down what works, what doesn’t, and whether Lanthimos’ increasingly strange style still hits for us. Also, are Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons pre...
This week we’re diving into The Rip (2026). BE WARNED...This one has spoilers to the point where I put a spoiler warning in the beginning of the episode. It's worth your time and it's on Netflix. If you're even passively interested in it, you should watch it before listening.
Is this one a hidden gem, a misfire, or somewhere in between? We break down the performances, story choices, and whether the movie delivers on its premise or ...

What was once a patreon-exclusive staple has been brought to the main show. We couldn't let it die, but it's a little different doing it with two people. We might make some changes to the format moving forward. However, you actually get two DIFFERENT movies with this one!

In this episode Reggie and I discuss what the sale of Warner Bros means and who we think will/should(?) be the company to take the reigns. It is a pretty good discussion even though we align closely on almost everything here.

You might think this jaunt back into horror is ill-timed, but the joke is on you! This movie is set in the winter! We're talking about Black Phone 2 (2025). Can this franchise really continue after the death of The Grabber in part 1? Well, obviously...

Back to the theater we go as we review ANOTHER 80's (Arnold) sci-fi property being continued in 2025 with Predator: Badlands (2025). Can Dan Trachtenberg do no wrong with this franchise?

This week we are back to reviewing movies with The Running Man (2025). This remake of an 80's sci-fi Arnold flick follows Stephen King's book more faithfully.

Listen...we always start off with the best of intentions. We never say we will do something without the intention of doing it. When we gave you our plan about how we'd cover this topic in October, we said it might not happen that way. What we didn't expect was to be putting it all into one episode at the end of the month. Sometimes...life happens. Enjoy listening to us talk about our experience in October.

We're taking you back to the days of Dark Disney. For decades, this movie was difficult to find, but October 2025 sees it being added to Disney+. It has never been easier to watch. This CHILDREN'S horror/sci-fi/fantasy movie released over 40 years ago, and we've heard a lot about it. Does it live up to the horror circle hype? Does it hold up for someone that's never seen it? Let's talk about Something Wicked This Way Comes (1983).
...This is October's "Patron Review". It was requested by Jonathan and he's taking us to the world of found footage. Specifically, the world of vampire found footage. Does this low budget horror flick have what it takes to get a seal of approval? Listen to us review Afflicted (2013)!
