This week the gang sits down with Kyle Tague to discuss his debut feature Don't Peek! They get all the details on the production of the film as well as Kyle's creative process before diving into what it's like designing IP-based theme park rides, the worst rollercoaster accident he's aware of, the hardest part of being a scare actor, and the most famous people he's encountered at Universal Studios' Halloween...
During this week's review episode the gang might be in trouble since not everyone finished their "Therapy" sessions, but (based on what two of them watched of it) are once again in agreeance on the latest OnlyFoundFootageFans assignment. Evan uses the wrong microphone for the first 20 minutes of the show then discusses two fresh drops: a British domestic thriller film from Jed Hart in addition to Eugene Kotlyarenko's recently relea...
This week the gang returns to their regularly scheduled Thursday guest episodes with a bang! They're joined by writers and directors of the upcoming feature film Sour Party (winner of the Andrews/Bernard 3 award from Stephen Soderbergh's Decentralized Pictures — which they were presented via a virtual appearance at Cannes Film Festival) Amanda and Michael Drexton as well as actress/accomplished bass guitarist Samantha "Sammy" Weste...

In this week's review episode the gang all chimes in a little differently on the OnlyFoundFootageFans assignment, Evan dives a trio of newly released films including a true crime doc involving Bjork, Gareth Evans' latest Netflix action flick (reviewed alongside Terrell), and a bonkers in-world camera riff on reality TV from Adam Rifkin! He also touches on a couple of other watches quickly before Russell gets into his thoughts on a ...
