  • The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
    26 Oct 2026
    ‘The Texas Chainsaw Massacre’ was a 1974 horror blockbuster that defined slasher tropes for decades… but thanks to shady business deals and alleged mob connections, its creators and stars saw almost none of the profits. This week Chris and Lizzie dive into the harrowing backstory of Tobe Hooper’s breakout film. Find out how many real bones were used on set, why the cast and crew had to run to the windows to vomit, and how one of the OG final girls went through a very real hell in Texas.

  • Review Preview (Spoiler Free) - You Can See Everything
    23 Oct 2026

    Check out this spoiler-free bonus review preview.


    It's the movie we didn't know we needed (or existed!) and Chris and Lizzie are still grappling with how You Can See Everything made them feel. Did Nathan Fielder, master of narrative manipulation and manufactured awkwardness, meet his match in Elizabeth Holmes? How did Chris and Lizzie interpret the film's myriad mind-boggling moments? Should this be the first documentary nominated for Best Picture (and perhaps a few other categories)?

    19 Oct 2026

    To be, or not to be... based on Hamlet? Join Chris and Lizzie as they brave the predator laden hunting grounds of Disney during the Animation Renaissance, try to unearth the true author of the studio's most successful film in decades, Katzenberg's crazy claims, Jeremy Irons' beef with the animators, who was nearly cast before James Earl Jones and Matthew Broderick's suspicion that the movie wasn't as original as it was being advertised.
