- ‘Obsession’ is an Iconic Gen Z Horror Movie
Kelsi and Trey dive deep into Curry Barker’s Obsession, one of the most exciting original horror films we’ve seen in years. We break down why the movie feels like evil 500 Days of Summer meets Hereditary, how it turns modern dating anxieties, male entitlement, and the fantasy of “the one” into a supernatural nightmare, and why Inde Navarrette’s performance is the emotional and horrifying center of the film. We also discuss the movie as a Gen Z relationship horror classic, a darkly funny cautionary tale, and ultimately a tragedy about agency and possession.

Kelsi and Trey dive into The Devil Wears Prada sequel with a full spoiler discussion: from Emily Blunt stealing the movie to the film’s bizarre politics around journalism, fashion, labor, AI, and billionaire ownership.

Plus: reactions to the new The Odyssey trailer, thoughts on the new Resident Evil, and Trey gives a quick review of the new horror film Hokum.

15 min - Why ‘Project Hail Mary’ Is Overrated
Kelsi and Trey break down the Dune: Part Three trailer: what’s working, what we’re worried about, and why this could be a massive finale. Then we review Project Hail Mary, a totally derivative sci-fi that feels like it was generated by AI…and yet we had a blast in a theater. Gosling carries, Rocky steals the movie, and somehow it all kind of works. Would’ve hated this at home!!
