Our September Showdown went the way of the patrons, which means they got to pick this week's punishment film. Thankfully, they didn't feel like punishing their favorite podcast and had us watch the mashup of Don Coscarelli x Bruce Campbell. Old Elvis and old, Black JFK fight an even older Mummy and his scarab sidekick in the weird fiction adaptation Bubba Ho-Tep.

Plus we debate the new Wolfman and whether Garfield is Sonic's ultim...

You got yourself a big blender and in that blender you toss in film school experimental films, retrofuturism, beefcakes, Instagram models, the bad guy from Blade, monster squids and Darren Aronofsky's dumb guy affinity for the Bible. Blend it up and you've got yourself some Divinity; which is a different recipe from the movie. Brian and Steve watch a 90 minute cologne ad and have thoughts.

It's time to pay the Penance...of a boring edgelord movie. From the year of 2009 when everything was torture and found footage, one director dared to mix the two. Then he hired recognizable faces Tony Todd and Michael Rooker for the smallest cameos that still allowed him to put their names on the promotional material. Tune in as Brian gets lessons in anatomy and stripping culture from Steve.

Cuckoo! It's a Nic Cage double feature with back-to-back episodes with the best nepobaby around. This time he features in the film of another nepobaby, Osgood Perkins. We're talking Satanic serial killer thriller Longlegs, and we have nothing but good things to say. From Maika Monroe's white knuckle performance to the dread inducing cinematography to the clues ridden throughout the film. Take a trip downstairs won't you?

Brian and Steve watch the newest Nicolas Cage film released over the weekend, not called Longlegs. It's Arcadian; a post-apocalyptic story of a father trying to raise his two sons in a world of monsters. In an incredible twist, Cage doesn't have the most eccentric, off-the-wall performance . . . it's the monsters. Goof Troop, mount up and tune in.   Plus we announce our August Showdown topic.

We must've angered Tubi in some fashion to curse Brian and Steve with Dinosaur Hotel 3. From the same people vomiting out every public domain horror and Christmas princess dog film in Britain, comes another hastily slapped together, unfinished, (alleged) tax scheme or (alleged) public funding grift film. What if Squid Games with Dinosaurs was in a foreclosed British estate? It'd suck. And it does. We watched it and Brian watched th...

Brian and Steve catch up on their Shudder watching with newly released film from Robert Morgan. Stopmotion is mixed media horror combing a psychological thriller with a Tool music video. It's also a mixed-metaphor film combing trauma, inheritance of mental unwellness, the artist's struggle and Greek mythology. We take it frame-by-frame for this film that may be one of our favorites of the year.   Find Us Online-

This week Steve punishes Brian with the film called "The Worst Film Ever Made...for Normies." It was Steve. He called it that. This episode. 2005's Alone in the Dark is a confluence of bad movie behavior. Tara Reid on her way down. Stephen Dorff and Christian Slater in movie jail. Uwe Boll doing his carny tax dodge with a video game property. Film in Canada. All this and more to create a movie less watchable than Roger Corman readi...
