Katie, Bridget, and special guest/writer/director/producer/prop master Chris Messineo close their eyes and squeeze real hard as they re-watch the movie: The Strange Dark! Which, if you didn't piece it together already, was created by Chris himself! Come along as we meet Susan, the best actress by the end of the movie, who has to decide whether to trust her husband Edgar or instead trust the scary agents who showed up to her door and are menacing. But trusting Edgar isn't so easy, since he reveals he's stolen data that can help him see the future because of sci-fi exposition and reverse DejaVu - which is actually a real thing guys we swear! When Edgar predicts how the night will end, our characters end up getting tangled up in Lord of the Rings references, witty banter, and some wild prop effects that leave you wanting to rewatch the movie for all the Easter eggs and clues! We also get to hear all the inside scoop about what it takes to make a movie, how sometimes the location for the movie hasn't had their electric bill paid in years (oops), and how important intimacy coordinators are. Chris did the damn thing and he deserves all the hype! Released in 2024, the movie was written and directed by Chris Messineo and stars Nili Bassman, Caleb Scott, Carmen Borla, Bates Wilder, John Beckwith, Carson Jean Holley, and Athan Sporek.

Katie and Bridget go look for a dead body in the woods as they re-watch the iconic and nostalgic movie: Stand By Me! Despite what Bridget thinks - we have yet to review this one! Come along as we follow four 12 year old friends who go on an impulsive journey to find the dead body of a missing boy. We've got Gordie, a depressed future writer who will shoot you with a gun if you mess with his friends; Chris, everyone's favorite confidence fairy and personal cheerleader who SHOULD HAVE LIVED DAMMIT; Teddy, a guy who should have watched Degrassi (season 2 - episode 2) and LEARNED SOMETHING from it; and Vern, who's just... Well, Vern! They have to deal with leeches, scary Kiefer Sutherlands, and emotional confessions all within this heartfelt movie that will make you think about the friends you had when you were 12, as well as think about where all the treehouses went. Seriously, let's bring back treehouses! Released in 1986, it was based off of the Stephen King novella "The Body" and stars Wil Wheaton, River Phoenix, Corey Feldman, Jerry O'Connell, and Kiefer Sutherland.

Katie and Bridget figure out what their Spice Girl names would be as they re-watch the movie: Spice World! OY! Come along as we follow the Spice Girls along lots of random side quests that don't really follow a plot! We've got the whole gang here (Scary Spice, Baby Spice, Sporty Spice, Ginger Spice, and Posh Spice) as they basically don't act and just hang out in front of a camera with random things happening. You want to hear them sing some iconic songs? You can! You want to see them do synchronized dances? You can! You want to watch them hang out on a bus and do silly cut aways most likely without a real movie script? YOU CAN! All wrapped into this clearly cash grab but also an honestly really fun time that you don't really need to pay full attention to. Just know that Posh Spice somehow is the funniest of them all! Released in 1997, it stars the Spice Girls along with other notable actors including Alan Cumming, Richard E. Grant, Elton John, Meat Loaf, Claire Rushbrook, and Naoko Mori.
