Trey explores Oz Perkins' Longlegs starring Nicolas Cage and Maika Monroe. This episode covers the hyperbolic reaction to 2024s newest horror-suspense film, the atmospheric feat of its world-building, and why the film struggles to balance its ambitious commentary on the serial killer genre with its underbaked, supernatural 3rd act. Free members on our Patreon can access full episodes of Alien, Silence of the Lambs, Ex Machina, and Midsommar for a limited time from June 30th - August 31st.

Trey explores Fx and Hulu's 'The Bear' Seasons 1, 2, and deep dives 3. The Bear has been quality TV for 2 seasons; a cohesive workplace psychodrama that understands the service industry led by Jeremy Allen White and Ayo Edebiri. With evocative filmmaking, memorable character work, and an exceptional kitchen atmosphere, the showrunners thoughtfully crafted America’s new-favorite, chaotic found family through its first two seasons. However, season 3 is very, very messy!

Kelsi and Trey discuss Richard Linklater's Before Sunrise, Sunset, and Midnight in a ~4 hour deep dive about god, romance, and Kelsi being good at laser tag! We walk through this trilogy by exploring Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy's characters Jessie and Celine as they go through a tragic/romantic coming-of-age journey. These films span 20 years with complex conversations about the human condition and we try our best to explain why these movies are so special while also having unexamined flaws with each new iteration.

Kelsi and Trey discuss Richard Linklater's career, style, and sensibilities in this deep dive of his newest film 'Hit Man'. Linklater returns to form as he attempts to satirize an American obsession with violence and true crime, while also empowering the ability to express ones self. Ultimately, the movie lives and dies by the magnetic performances from Glen Powell and Adria Arjona.
