  • Sympathy for the Devil (2023)


    The guys check in on the state of Nic Cage (and the price of Nico’s cratering Joel Kinnaman stock) with the indie cat-and-mouse thriller Sympathy for the Devil. No, it’s not based on the Stones song. And no, despite his ultra-red appearance, Cage is not playing the actual devil. We think.

  • Happy Birthday to Me (1981)


    Giallo July continues with one of the many American Giallos of the early 80s: J Lee Thompson’s cult classic Happy Birthday to Me. Come for the holiday themed horror. Stay for the countless red herrings, creative kills and one of the craziest twist endings of all time.

  • Murder-Rock: Dancing Death (1984)


    The guys soldier on with Giallo July by discussing Italian horror master Lucio Fulci’s much underseen Murder-Rock. Hey, doesn’t this movie seem an awful lot like Flashdance? Shh! Nobody asked you!

  • Jumper (2008)


    On the final edition of “Nick’s Failed Middle School Dates,” the guys discuss the final nail in Hayden Christensen’s career coffin. Indeed, Jumper and Push are two different films. And the former might somehow be worse than the latter.

  • Push (2009)


    Back when Dakota Fanning was our Shirley Temple, Captain America was just the Human Torch and Nick was going on dozens of awkward dates to the movies. The year is 2009. The movie is Push. Not based on the novel by Sapphire, but based on…nothing? Join us as we discuss this failed attempt at a superhero franchise, the up-and-down career of Chris Evans, the current political state of Hong Kong and much more.
