Triple Feature: Pretty Lethal/Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice/Thrash


Listen Later

Tonight on Triple Feature, we’re diving into three 2026 streaming-era genre swings: Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice, Pretty Lethal, and Thrash. On paper, each one has the kind of premise that sells itself before the movie even starts: gangsters, romance, crime, and time travel; ballerinas forced into violent survival mode; and a hurricane-flooded coastal town where sharks are suddenly part of the disaster plan. But that is also the problem. These are not old-fashioned star vehicles or theatrical events. They are premise-first movies built for the thumbnail age, where the logline has to do most of the work. So the question tonight is not simply whether these movies are good or bad. It’s whether the modern streaming B-movie still has personality, danger, and invention — or whether it has become a content slot wearing the skin of exploitation cinema. Are these sharp little genre machines, disposable algorithm bait, or proof that dumb fun still has a pulse? Gangsters, ballerinas, hurricane sharks — the algorithm wants blood.
