It's another actor themed episode, now starring Tom Cruise! For long-time Cruise fan Bret, this mission is far from impossible. But can the acting legend impress Shira with his romance chops or should he stick to action thrillers? Find out while they explore Tommy Boy's range from menacing Jamie Foxx in Collateral to wooing Cameron Diaz in Knight and Day. Are the remixes in this episode the greatest Tom Cruise vehicles ever conceived? You can't handle the truth! 

Don't you just hate it when you get mistaken for someone else, like Peter Gallagher's fiance or an Argentinian crime lord? One day you're minding your business and the next moment you're taking on a false identity. As Rom Com and Horror fans, Bret and Shira have seen it all before. They take a look back at old favorites While You Were Sleeping and The Aura before serving up some new twists on a tried and true trope. 

Shira thinks her pick Galaxy Quest employs the conventions and tropes of Rom Coms. Is it Science Fiction or truth? Only Bret can decide. With Forbidden World, Bret's pick, there's no question that the characters are living through a good ol' fashioned Space Horror. The pressure is on when the duo returns from galaxies far, far away to pitch their remixes. Can sexy smugglers, space princesses and ragtag crews save the universe? Listen and find out. 

When Bret confessed to Shira that he wished he chose The Abominable Dr. Phibes for the previous episode, the fix was easy: a 1971 themed episode! Welcome to the 70s, where love is intense and life is cheap (that 70s crime rate is no joke). If Vincent Price isn't your 70s masculine ideal, you can always settle for Walter Matthau, the lead of our other 1971 film: A New Leaf. Come for the kooky 70s realness and stay for the even weirder remixes! 

Doctors hate them! Because Bret and Shira are diagnosing the trouble with doctors in Romance and Horror. Whether they're cheating death like the medical students in Flatliners or becoming the singular obsession of a small town like Dr. Paul Lewis of The Grand Seduction, the necromancers have just the prescription: a healthy dose of movie remixes. 

Bret and Shira head to the Australian Outback to find out which animal is more dangerous: the hungry dancers of Strictly Ballroom or the man-eating crocodile from Rogue. With so many ways to die in the land down under, will they survive their attempt to swap genres between Rom Com and Horror?    

Bret and Shira's first actor themed episode stars English actor Matthew Goode! While discussing Leap Year and Stoker, the pair get down to the hard questions: is Matthew Goode made for Romance, perfect for Horror, or is he just really great at staring at people? Either way, the necromancers are brimming with charming and spooky vehicles for the actor in their movie remixes.

Part two of a twofer, baby! Bret and Shira's conversation isn't the only thing trailing in this episode while they discuss the stalker trope in Romance and Horror. First, they sneak up on the paranoid teens of It Follows and then follow a woman from New England to Florida to find out if There's Something About Mary. Like any good stalkers, the necromancers just can't leave without souvenirs in the form of some fresh Rom-Com and Horror remixes.

Bret and Shira parlez vous French films. They talk New French Extremity staple, Martyrs, alongside Amelie, probably the most whimsical movie ever made. Settle in with a delicious pain au chocolat and enjoy some fresh remixes of a couple old French cult faves.
