What's it like to watch a movie while dealing with theater disruptions and a heated audience debate over a casting choice? This week on "Natey & Katy: At the Movies," Natey dives into all the drama surrounding "Skin Care," a gripping tale of rivalry in the beauty industry. Inspired by true events, the film had Natey hooked with its compelling story and standout performances, especially by Lewis Pullman. Despite not being his usual type of film, he found himself thoroughly engaged and even motivated to research the real-life events that inspired it.

Next up, he tackles the heart-pounding suspense of "Alien: Romulus," directed by the genius behind "Don't Breathe." With intense scenes that keep you on edge and a strong performance from Cailee Spaeny, this film is a thrilling addition to the "Alien" franchise. Natey discusses its connections to past "Alien" movies and the influences from "Prometheus" and the video game "Alien Isolation." Plus, he shares the perks of AMC’s A-list program and gives a sneak peek into the upcoming discussion on "Some Like It Hot." Whether you're a fan of intense thrillers or maybe really into make-up, this episode has something for everyone.
