The Flixters

Hello and thank you for downloading another episode of The Flixters Podcast!  

This week on The Flixters we bring you Never Let Go, a psychological horror starring the ever watchable Halle Berry. In it, Berry plays a single mother caring for her two children in a secluded cabin in the forest evading an evil supernatural force.  

Next, we discuss Megalopolis, Francis Ford Coppola’s big budget (from his own pocket apparently) opus, forty years in the making. We try and breakdown the meaning of the film and just where all that money went. 

Stick around for more! 

On Anniversary Corner we look back at Goodnight Mommy (2014). 

If that’s not enough for you, we’ve even thrown in new trailers to watch and what you can catch on streaming.

True crime aficionados could do worse than Netflix’s The Lie, the heartbreaking story of a British backpacker who goes missing in Auckland, New Zealand. Using CCTV footage, local police officers piece together the young girl’s final moments and uncover a lie perpetrated by the last person to see her alive.

Anyone looking for an intelligent action/drama could do a lot worse than Netflix’s Rebel Ridge. Starring UK born Aaron Pierre, as an ex marine minding his own business in some small US town in the middle of nowhere. 

Next we have the psychological horror Speak No Evil, which is a remake of the 2022 Danish film of the same name. Whilst on holiday in Italy, American couple Ben and Louise are befriended by fellow travellers, played by James McAvoy and Aisling Franciosi. When the Americans get invited to spend time with their new found friends in London, their idyllic getaway becomes too much for the couple to handle. 

Let’s just say things don’t end well.

It’s been 36 years since the original Tim Burton directed Beetlejuice (1988) hit our screens and ever since then, there’s been a small but vocal crowd of fans who’ve always wondered what in the hell happened to the little undead deviant! 

Well here we are, 36 years later and fans have got their wish. Keaton (Betlegeuse) and Ryder (Lydia Deetz) are back alongside a host of new faces to try and stop Betlegeuse from wreaking havoc in the land of the living - or vice versa!

Hot on the heels of last week’s show we take on another ‘possession’ movie. This time we discuss The Deliverance.

And we don’t mean the bad plumbing if you catch our drift! 

We also discuss, The Instigators, a comedy about a robbery gone wrong. Starring Matt Damon and Casey Affleck, who play two Bostonians who try and pull off the perfect crime but get left with more than they bargained for.

We’ve hit another milestone here at The Flixters ladies and gents. This week is our 300th episode and we get down to not one, not two, but three movie reviews. 

First up is Argentinian horror, When Evil Lurks, a good ol’ fashion possession tale with some gruesome consequences. Then there’s Blink Twice, the directorial debut for Zoe Kravitz. And then, there’s Cuckoo, a freaky horror/thriller that has Duval needing a second viewing!

It’s been 45 years since Ridley Scott’s Alien terrorised audiences from the depth of outer space. In the intervening years we’d had sequels, prequels, spinoffs and now, in 2024, an interquel of sorts. 

Fede Alverez, (Don’t Breathe) brings us another entry into the Alien franchise with Alien: Romulus. Set 27 years after the events of Alien, and before James Cameron’s classic, Aliens, this latest installment sees a group of miners discover an abandoned space station floating in space. Seeing it as a ticket off their planet, the group explore and encounter more than they bargain for. 

In typical Alien franchise manner, the bodies begin to rack up!

On this week’s episode we discuss film auteur M Night Shyamalan’s latest screen offering, Trap. Devoted dad (Josh Hartnett) plays against type in this edge of your seat thriller. 

With Night’s directing pedigree and Josh’s acting talents you’d be mad not to expect a decent, well-made piece of filmmaking, right?

Who said the summer blockbuster disaster movie genre is dead? It’s alive and kicking because on this week’s show we discuss Twisters, which isn’t a sequel to the 1996 summer blockbuster disaster movie Twister apparently.

The one where we review Deadpool & Wolverine with guest Manny

Hello and thank you for downloading another episode of The Flixters Podcast!  

It’s been six long years since the foul mouthed, samurai wielding, fourth-wall breaking anti-hero Deadpool graced the screen with his usual one-liners and graphic violence. 

If the MCU has been having a rough time with audiences (and the box office), then this is the one to pull them out of their slump. 

Sit tight, hold onto your desert eagles, because we’re going deep inside Deadpool & Wolverine. 

On Anniversary Corner we look back at X-Men Days of Future Past (2014), X-Men Origins: Wolverine (2009) AND Blade Trinity (2004). 

If that’s not enough for you, we’ve even thrown in new trailers to watch and what you can catch on streaming.
