A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night (2014) feat. Abby Olcese

5/14/2025
Grab your chador and the cat because we're talking Ana Lily Amirpour's feature debut, A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night (2014). Joining us on the skateboard into Bad City is writer Abby Olcese, who appreciates the mood of this black and white Iranian Western vampire film. Plus: the Girl's moral code, the film's open ending, drug dealer decor, and why Arash is such a clingy sad boy. Questions? Comments? Snark?

Hannibal (2001)

5/7/2025
Bowels in or bowels out? That's the question we hope to answer as we discuss Ridley Scott's controversial sequel to The Silence of the Lambs in 2001's Hannibal! Join us as we discuss the Clarice of it all before heading to Italy to check in with everyone's favorite cannibal. There's no denying it: this is just a weird movie. Be it Gary Oldman's prosthetics or Ray Liotta's brain sac, there's a lot here that mainstream audiences weren't ready for 20+ years ago! Questions? Comments? Snark?

The Feast (2021)

4/30/2025
Mind the glass shards and mushrooms because we're talking Lee Haven Jones' eco-horror film, The Feast (2021). It's a rare horror film in Welsh (apologies for any mispronunciations!) as well as a capital M message movie, but this one has grown on us since its festival circuit. Plus: colonizers, politicians and farmers, a slow burns en route to a Grand Guignol climax, and house porn...in the wrong way? Questions? Comments? Snark?

Alien Resurrection (1997)

4/23/2025
Caress your Newborn take a deep breath because we're discussing Jean-Pierre Jeunet's divisive franchise entry Alien Resurrection (1997). Join us as we attempt to offer a reappraisal of this weird little film, which certainly has its flaws but also has so much going for it. Be it Sigourney Weaver's magnetic performance as Ripley 8 (you'll hear no "not my Ripley" cries from us) or the ooey gooey practical effects, we still like this one! Plus: Xenomorph nail polish, breathalyzer door locks, that underwater sequence, a monologuing Brad Dourif and the hazards of regularly eating lemon slices. Questions? Comments? Snark?

Christine (1983)

4/16/2025
Tabitha! We're talking about another Stephen King adaptation with John Carpenter's workman-like take on Christine (1983). It's "shitty teen boys, the movie" as we discuss toxic masculinity and male entitlement, Arnie and Dennis' homoeroticism, and the film's inability to name its female lead. Plus: book to film comparisons, debate about Arnie's complicity, lamenting the thin characterizations, and a "King adaptations of the 80s" game! Questions? Comments? Snark?

Disturbing Behavior (1998)

4/9/2025
Self-mutilate this, fluid boy, because we're talking Blue Ribbons and hack jobs in David Nutter's teenybopper version of The Stepford Wives in 1998's Disturbing Behavior! Join us as we go all in on this film's extremely troubled production (seriously, it's bad!) before diving into the plot of this extended episode of The X-Files. Plus, mathematics vs. moments, peckerheads, some well-earned praise for Nick Stahl and test screening after test screening after test screening (after test screening). Questions? Comments? Snark?

Panic Room (2002) feat. Cameron Scheetz

4/2/2025
Monitor your blood sugar and watch the motion sensor lasers because we're diving into David Fincher's Panic Room (2002), along with Queerty's Cameron Scheetz. We think this David Fincher "popcorn" flick doesn't get enough respect, particularly for queer leads Jodie Foster and Kristen Stewart. Plus: a scary Dwight Yoakam, Leto's
