New episode! This week author @maxevry.bsky.social joins us for the alien autopsy of Steven Spielberg's NIGHT SKIES and the legacy of films, both made and unmade, that it influenced. In this episode we continue exploring POLTERGEIST and also discuss Spielberg's unmade comedy REEL TO REEL.

Watched and absolutely loved this movie yesterday, so it was nice to get a little extra with a CF discussion on it. I'd recommend watching it yourself (those [redacted] moments go hard) and then give them a listen.

We have a new podcast episode, and we're biting into Jordan Downey's THE CYCLE. Listen in to hear us discuss [redacted], analyze [redacted], and praise how Downey handles [redacted]. Sorry about the vagueness, but we don't want to spoil what surprises await if you haven't seen it yet!

I openly support more Ridley Scott nonsense.

I watched my cats surround a cupboard and attempt to corral a mouse for like ten minutes, only for my old chihuahua to wake up, realize what they were doing, and immediately rush in and handle things. It's a jungle in here, y'all.

Hamish Linklater was so funny on The New Adventures of Old Christine, but I would've never expected him to be an absolute powerhouse whenever he shows up in anything nowadays.

Watched an anthology horror titled TERROR TRACT on YouTube the other day. Not only does it star John Ritter in the wraparound, but one of the stories has Bryan Cranston fighting a monkey (and also features a scene with him acting against WCW's own Buff Bagwell). What a delight.

I don't want to post a spoiler, I'm only on episode 3 of CRYSTAL LAKE, but there was a joke that came out of left field and just busted my gut like a Jason Voorhees right hand.

I think it is really impressive the amount of times the Ravens go to Mark Andrews in must-have situations as he runs a crisp 0% in those moments. #NFL

I watched LOCKBOX on MGM+ the other night and it's been a while since a movie took such a hard right turn for its third act nonsense. Learning it was based on a podcast horror story made so much sense. Learning the reason for the title was a real, "What...what?!" moment.

West Virginia getting statistically surrounded makes me feel like covid all over again where we weren't reporting anything until it all hit the fan.

I wish I could commit to "less carbs, more water," but some reason, my brain constantly undermines me and I'm suddenly having chicken and rice when chicken by itself would've been just fine.
