Repo: The Genetic Opera is a horror musical goth opera about a guy who repossesses organs, his sick daughter, a family full of underused character actors, and one very screamy grave robber. It's...a lot...but somehow also not enough. It is super weird though.

Happy Pride y'all!

Frankly movie is not the gayest one we've ever covered, but it damn sure may be the queerest. We got a young Russian trans peasant girl longing just to be accepted, an aristocratic French fop, a witchy goth girl, and a vampire puppet who just wants you inside him. Buckle up because this one's wild!

It's Ben's birthday show and we're talking about something that is a horror movie in roughly the same percentage as Funny People is a comedy, it's K-Pop Demon Hunters!

Listen to us as we marvel at the brilliant writing. Nod with us as we observe the nature of a completely abusive mentorship. Worry with us as we consider the troubling connotations of lore around this world that isn't fully built out in a way that makes us wonder if maybe our heroes aren't heroes at all. We're here to go in way too seriously deep on K-Pop Demon Hunters and we have a first time guest, the writer of Genderqueer, Maia Kobabe here to show us how it's done done done.

It's THE Feel Bad Movie of 2025, making it to the podcast! Bring Her Back is a movie about Sally Hawkins being the absolute worst and tormenting poor children and just how for adults will go to justify doing whatever they wanted to do in the first place.
