If those dinner parties you were invited to by your weird coworker were anything like the dinner party in Coherence, I’m sure you’ll be glad the sitter had to cancel! When eight friends arrive for a dinner party during the most inconvenient comet passing in history, strange occurrences begin to unfold and strain the already tense threads holding the group together. Through the eyes of Em, we must uncover the mystery while simultaneously trying to snoop what books director James Ward Byrkit owns in his house.

Will these Skype and Ketamine addicts come out unscathed? Will Hugh get to call his egghead brother?

Will Mike ever shut up? Let’s find out together !

Instead of doing the sensible option of just filming large piles of money burning to ash, Universal Pictures and Blumhouse instead chose to waste even more money and make The Exorcist: Believer! This $400 million mistake from director David Gordon Green ruins another classic horror film by essentially making the same movie you know and love again. Only this time it sucks! The Exorcist was about a possessed little girl, so this time around it’s about TWO possessed little girls!

Ellen Burstyn’s return as Chris MacNeil is so short-lived; if you’ve seen the trailer, you’ve seen about 90% of her screen time. Now THAT’S the devil’s greatest trick!

Abandoned children, alcoholism, gun violence, and car crashes galore. It must be a Satoshi Kon Christmas in his 2003 classic, “Tokyo Godfathers!” When our homeless protagonists, Gin, Hana, and Miyuki discover a child left in the dumpster, they resolve to track down the girl’s mother against the backdrop of the wintery new year’s season. Along the way, the three must work together and confront their own personal traumas for the sake of the affectionately named child, Kiyoko.

Wait a minute… Christmas? Three stragglers in care of a baby with the occasional ability to create miracles?

Is Kiyoko Jesus? Someone call the Man from Earth!

If there’s anything the world has in common with the film “Another Round,” it’s scraping by through a pandemic in-between bouts of heavy drinking! Mads Mikkelsen and three other guys shine as four Copenhagen teachers who, in order to improve their sad, pathetic lives, decide to maintain a constant state of drunkenness throughout the day. Or as Wisconsin calls it, a 9 to 5!

An American remake of the film is reportedly on the way, which is set to be directed by Chris Rock...?

Hey Chris! Keep my Danish drinking buddy dramedy out of your fucking hands!Your Cinematic Reviewers:

From the director of 48 Hours and the cult classic film The Warriors, comes a movie you’ve probably never seen, but inspired stuff you probably have! It’s Streets of Fire! Michael Pare stars as Tom Cody, the toughest, cheapest Sylvester Stallone impersonator badass in town who, along with new allies, must rescue his ex-girlfriend Ellen Aim from the clutches of gang leader Raven Shaddock.

It’s Final Fight before Final Fight. It’s got Cyberpunk’s Rockerboys before Rockerboys, and it released a week before Ghostbusters and Gremlins.

Of course it was gonna flop!

Grab your barf bag and prepare to look away for this egg-citing new episode where we’ll be tackling the iconic John Waters hit “Pink Flamingos!” Drag queen Divine stars as a criminal under the name Babs Johnson, who, along with her freak family, must contend with the schemes of Connie and Raymond Marble, two perverts who seek to claim Divine’s title of “Filthiest Person Alive” for themselves.

Registered to the National Archives in 2021, then-U.S. Librarian of Congress Carla Hayden deemed this film significant enough to add to our National Film Registry.

If she could find merit in a whistling prolapsed anus, surely we must be able to!

*THIS WAS RECORDED AS OUR 10th EPISODE. OUR RECORDING OF TOKYO GODFATHERS WAS LOST AND WILL BE THE NEW EPISODE 10*

If you thought the aliens from “Signs” were scary, wait till you see M. Night Shyamalan’s next big cinematic threat: Pennsylvanian settlers! It’s “The Village!” When death and illness begin to plague a 19th-century community, young Lucius begins to question and rebel against the village’s strict rules to never leave their walls. However, when the vicious creatures that live in the surrounding forest begin to threaten the villagers, Lucius and his love interest, Ivy, fall down a rabbit hole of the community’s mysteries.

It’s like Attack on Titan with less giant killing and more pigmen!

Gag me with a spoon and let's get totally tubular, lads, we’re travelling back to 1980s Ireland in “Sing Street!” In this coming-of-age tale a boy named Conor is transferred to Synge Street CBS, a school that seems to double as a penitentiary, where he is relentlessly bullied by everyone. Finding his muse in the local girl Raphina, Conor lies that he has a band in order to impress her. Now Conor must assemble a group of nerds and outcasts and enlist the help of his music-inclined, slacker older brother to make some jams, get the girl, and find himself. Something he does… actually quite easily. At least the music part.

For real, this kid couldn’t carry a tune to save his life in one scene, and the next he’s singing like Adam Levine.

Wait… Adam Levine’s on this soundtrack??

Get out your camcorder and put on your Peachfuzz mask, cause we’re talking about 2014’s “Creep!” Directed by and starring Patrick Brice, this found footage thriller follows Aaron, a very stupid man, who accepts a thousand dollars from Josef, a very *creepy* man, to film a day in Josef's life for his unborn child before he dies. Ignoring the red flags through his camcorder’s screen, Aaron must find a way to maneuver Josef's weirdness in between the jump scares they needed to remind you it’s a scary movie! Take those away, and it's basically just a strange white man guiding a hapless guy around with the promise of cash.

If I wanted to watch that, I’d just watch Mr. Beast!

Turn that frown upside down, or the TraumaMan will get you! It’s Parker Finn’s “Smile!” Based on Finn’s short film “Laura Hasn’t Slept,” “Smile” follows in the footsteps of modern boogeyman curse films like “The Babadook” and “It Follows” with a somehow even more passive evil entity. Sosie Bacon stars as Rose, a woman plagued by an incessant force that just stands there. Happily! Rose must uncover the source of her curse and remove it before her own demons consume her.

If the sequel isn’t called “Smile Wide,” I’m going to Smile myself!
