Jenna and Veronica discuss both versions of Nightmare Alley – Edmund Goulding's noir take from 1947 and Guillermo Del Toro's recent release. They also address the necessity for explicit violence in film and why certain auteur directors don’t always click with them.

Ironically, as Licorice Pizza’s reception started to spin out, what seemed to get lost in the crossfire was its own thematic focus on well-intentioned characters losing control of their narratives.

This week on the podcast, Dan chats with Ryan, Erica and Marc of The New World Pictures Podcast about their show and the movies they love to discuss.

It's time to get cruddy again! Carlo and Dan are talking SOV revenge movies, old tech horror movies, video game adaptations, and what they've been watching.

A Banquet is a slick and atmospheric horror movie that gets just weird enough while still being tethered to reality. If this is where director Ruth Paxton is starting, Veronica is very excited to see where she goes next.

Another year, another list of favourite discoveries! From movies that deserve a BluRay release stat, to some of my favourite blind-buys of the year - they’re all here, and more.

Dan and Jenna team up to watch what Martin Short himself called his "leading man years" – a string of movie roles that set him up to become the next big thing in cinema and never really went anywhere big.

The beautiful and unflinchingly brutal I Saw The Devil invites the the audience to meditate on the idea of the purpose of revenge and justice – how either is served and where to draw the lines between righteous vigilante and depraved psycho.

Carlo and Dan are back with a post-Halloween episode of Cream of the Crud, talking about movies they've been watching (BoardingHouse! New York Ninja!) and the latest news of physical releases.

Veronica serves up an anxiety-riddled double feature for you to watch with your romantic partners with Audition (1999) and Possession (1981). Enjoy the pain!

Practically all of the jokes in The French Dispatch exist on a sort of intellectually tickling plane that are amusing when you think about them after the fact but not exactly hilarious to behold. It’s Wes Anderson’s at his most irreverent without ever being laugh-out-loud funny. You know, just like a New Yorker cartoon.
