Greg returns from abroad to find weird movie releases stacked up. Fortunately Giles is there to help him preview ten new releases: Greek weird sci-fi "She Loved Blossoms More," French fairy tale "The Ice Tower," a "Perfect Blue" theatrical rerelease, "V/H/S Halloween" appearing on Shudder with a Casper Kelly entry, Bleeding Skull's postmodern retro horror experiment "Phantasmatapes," "The Toxic Avenger" remake arrives on VOD, a Something Weird psychedelic sexploitation set call "Drug-O-Rama Video Party," "Dogtooth" gets a 4K UHD, Criterion releases "The Wes Anderson Archive," and "Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD" appears on 4K UHD. Phew!

With Greg still on vacation (and posting this episode late due to spotty wifi), Giles Edwards and Brother "Penguin" Pete Trbovich drop this short and informal episode. They revisit "Fantastic Fest" in more depth, tip you off to a new experimental project from Crispin Glover, revisit "Rocky Horror" and its tribute documentary (now in scattered theaters), pimp "The 366 Weird Movies Guide," and briefly mention "One Battle After Another."0:00 Intro1:12 More on Fantastic Fest 20257:16 Crispin Glover's upcoming film "No!

Greg is on vacation, so Penguin Pete co-hosts with Giles. They discuss the theatrical re-release of "Howl's Moving Castle" this weekend (Sep. 20-24); the "Megalopolis" behind-the-scenes documentary "Megadoc" coming to theaters in limited release, "So Unreal," Amanda Kramer's glitchy and experimental documentary about late-20th century science fiction movies, debuting on Blu-ray; Deaf Crocodile's offering Blu-rays of the Lithuanian rock musical "The Devil's Bride" (a debut) and a new edition of Jiri Barta's Expressionist stop-motion "The Pied Piper" with six new shorts; and, with time to kill, they jump ahead to next week to announce the upcoming theatrical documentary "Strange Journey: The Story of Rocky Horror" and a brief peek at some things (including the existential mouse animation "Decorado") that will play at Fantastic Fest in Austin this year.

Giles and Greg discuss Todd Rohal's comments to "Variety" about his transgressive underground comedy "F____ My Son," the Blu-ray release of the anime adaptation "Uzumaki" (and its troubled history), and longer discussions of Nicolas Cage in Finnegan Lorcan's psychothriller "The Surfer" and Argentina's surreal crime drama "Kill the Jockey."

ERRATA: George Kuchar's name should be pronounced KOO-char, not KOO-kar.

On this episode we dive into what looks weird at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF), including a gnarly Harmony Korine-produced romp set in Medellin, a story about irradiated centaurs, the tale of a desperate mom trying to get her mutant son laid, and much more. We also spotlight the week's weirdest releases: the surreal Argentinian caper flick "Kill the Jockey" on VOD and Joe Badon's meta-riffic "The Wheel of Heaven" on Blu-ray.

Greg and Giles are back to discuss the week's news and new releases, starting with a look at what may be weird at the Venice International Film Festival (Yorgos Lanthimos' "Bugonia," anyone?) Then it's two movies in theatrical release, one which is easy to see ("The Toxic Avenger" remake with Peter Dinklage) and one that will prove challenging (the Quay Brothers' "Sanitorium Under the Sign of the Hourglass"), FInally, we address the week's three physical media releases: a Blu-ray edition of the Canonically Weird indie horror "I Can See You"; Shôhei Imamura's underseen 2001 final film "Warm Water Under a Red Bridge"; and "enigmatic" Chinese feature "Only the River Flows".

Julian "Boys Go to Jupiter" Glander joins Greg and Giles to talk about his oddball coming-of-age debut feature, blender animation, baby ducklings, hammer entrepreneurship, and how to get a free deep-fried taco in Tampa, FL. Before that, G&G run through the week's notable releases: "Black Swan" rereleased in IMAX, strange horror "Perpetrator" on Blu-ray, new 4Ks of a pair of Rollinades ("Lips of Blood" and "Night of the Hunted"), plus disco fever dream "Xanadu" and Raimi's PG-13 horror outing "Drag Me to Hell."
