  • A Hero’s Darkness and Light: Brightburn & Superman (2025) Movie Review

     This week on The Reel Study, we’re taking flight with a double feature that flips the Superman mythos on its head. First, we dive into Brightburn (2019), a chilling reimagining of what might happen if a super-powered being used his gifts for destruction instead of hope. Then, we look ahead to Superman (2025), James Gunn’s highly anticipated reboot that promises to set a bold new direction for the Man of Steel.

    We’re also joined once again by our friend Will Wilkins (Netheads Podcast, CTO of Kevin Smith’s SModCo).

    Before the discussion, catch up on The Reel News for the latest movie headlines, or check out Reel Roundup, where the panel reviews new films currently in theatres or on streaming platforms.

  • Dine & Slay: Blood Diner and Slaxx Movie Review

    This week on The Reel Study, we’re serving up a horror-comedy double feature with the cult favorite Blood Diner (1987) and the fashion-forward satire Slaxx (2020)! From brain-eating rituals and absurd gore to killer jeans with a thirst for justice, these offbeat horror flicks bring the laughs, the blood, and the bizarre. We’re also thrilled to be joined by special guest Haunting Season to break down all the campy chaos and outrageous horror these films have to offer. Before the discussion, catch up on The Reel News for the latest movie headlines, or check out Reel Roundup, where the panel reviews new films currently in theatres or on streaming platforms.

  • Washington Unleashed: The Equalizer and The Equalizer 2 Movie Review

    This week on The Reel Study, we're diving into a Denzel Washington Double Feature with The Equalizer (2014) and The Equalizer 2 (2018).

    Denzel Washington brings quiet intensity and righteous fury to the role of Robert McCall—a former black ops operative who takes justice into his own hands. In The Equalizer, we witness McCall’s transformation from a quiet, solitary man into a relentless force for good. Then in The Equalizer 2, the stakes get personal as McCall seeks vengeance while staying true to his moral code.

    Before the discussion, catch up on The Reel News for the latest movie headlines, or check out Reel Roundup, where the panel reviews new films currently in theatres or on streaming platforms.
