Travolting episodes

  • Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

    Don't say it a third time! Jeff and Stuart finally reach Winona's modern era opus film, a sequel to a 1988 Tim Burton cult classic that includes the return of Keaton, O'Hara, and adding to the gang Jenna Ortega as Lydia Deetz's daughter. While Jeff, Stuart and special guest Trina Mulligan all have different opinions on the success/achievement of Beetlejuice 2, none of them deny the benchmark this film is for Winona's post-Stranger Things comeback to fame.

    2 hr 23 min
  • Haunted Mansion

    Coming out a year before Beetlejuice 2, Winona is given a single scene cameo in this movie that doesn't seem to be scary enough or funny enough to justify its existence.

    1 hr 39 min
  • Gone in the Night

    Originally called "The Cow" for... reasons... but this is Winona's first major top billed role in a real movie in over a decade. Jeff and Stuart remark the similarities between this movie and Zach Cregger's "Barbarian" except Gone in the Night takes a few unexpected twists and turns which leave the boys giggling at the sillyness of it all. That all being said, there is a tinge of hope for Winona after watching her performance in this movie which if anything, offers some great thriller vibes in the first two acts.

    1 hr 12 min
  • Destination Wedding

    He's back folks. Keanu Reeves in his fourth collaboration with Winona Ryder. This time, the pair are off to a wedding together, neither of whom wish to attend, and through their misery both internal and external, somehow form a relationship?

    1 hr 4 min
  • Brothers

    The Fraser's Edge returns with Brendan's latest release, Brothers, starring Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin. While the movie was made before Killers of the Flower Moon but released on Amazon Prime last week, Jeff and Stuart both agree that in this mediocre, by-the-numbers film, Fraser is the one who shines with his comedic force.

    1 hr 26 min
  • The Rebuild Era (Recap Episode)

    At this point in Winona's career, she's gone from zero to... pretty okay? The boys go back and forth on the rebuilding of Winona's career status in Hollywood and where it will lead her in the future.

    48 min
  • Experimenter

    In 1961, infamous psychologist Stanley Milgram conducted a controversial experiment that answered the question: "Would good people do horrible things so long as they were just following orders?". This movie explores the life and career of Milgram as he tries to distance himself from the controversial experiment.

    1 hr 1 min
  • Turks and Caicos

    Johnny Worricker (Bill Nighy), a retired MI5 agent hiding from the law in the Turks and Caicos islands, comes upon a plot between MI5 and the CIA in which he uses his position to broker a deal that would leave every party involved in a happy enough place to which he could return to his home country in peace. Confused? So were the boys as this movie is the second movie of the "Worricker Trilogy.

    1 hr 7 min
  • Homefront

    Jason Statham plays the role of Phil Broker: family man who's a retired DEA/FBI/CIA agent (we still don't really know) who moves away from his chaotic and destructive life to live in peace with his daughter in New Orleans.
