Ep 38 - Blood Simple (1984)

The film Blood Simple (1984) was a launch pad for a lot of top Hollywood talent including Joel and Ethan Coen, Barry Sonnenfeld, and Frances McDormand. It's also a pretty solid flick.

Ep 34 - Squid Game

Squid Game is the most watched Netflix Original Series to date. Jason Furie and Adam Roth had to climb aboard the hype-train and witness what all the fuss was about. Believe the hype, Squid Game is here and it's pretty awesome. Sure there's some obvious inspiration pulled from Battle Royale, but that's ok because this is much better than The Hunger Games. Sorry Katniss. We review all 9 episodes of this highly entertaining pop-culture phenomenon.

There's no denying the influence of Akira Kurosawa's Seven Samurai when it comes to the Star Wars Universe.

Ep 32 - Malignant (2021)

This movie is bad. Like, really bad. James Wan is a very capable writer and director, but his latest film Malignant (2021) is just offensively bad on so many levels.

This can't be the future.

Ep 28 - Stalker (1979)

This film demands your full attention. Jason Furie fully committed his mind and body to this experience while Adam Roth possibly did no such thing and now lives in regret. Guess who enjoyed this film more? We review Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 sci-fi cult classic "Stalker" that is sure to generate some conflicting opinions and interpretations. If you're going to watch this one, be sure get The Criterion Collection edition 2K remaster. It's amazing.
