Episodes
Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
September 14, 2023 19:50 - 30 minutes - 55 MBIt's here... That is all. DC, do this justice. Enjoy, y'all.
Pet Sematary: Bloodlines Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
September 12, 2023 20:15 - 25 minutes - 46.3 MB"Sometimes dead is better"... Normally I'd say that damn sure applies here. And while I have extremely little to no expectations for this, I'm going to be fair people. But if this turns out terrible, maybe we can bury it in the sour soil and hope it comes back better? Enjoy, people.
Sorority Row Commentary (Back To School Edition Pt.4)
September 12, 2023 00:05 - 1 hour - 206 MBI noticed that this kind of doesn't make sense for a Back To School episode when these sorority sisters are nearing the end of the year when shit hits the fans... But the lessons learned still count here. This is another one of those cases where the remake is better than the original, and I forgot this sets itself up for a sequel. Black Christmas 2019 probably made sure all cinematic sorority houses were destroyed, though. Enjoy, folks.
Light It Up Commentary (Back To School Edition Pt.3)
September 10, 2023 08:15 - 1 hour - 197 MBI know, I'm two days late uploading this... But it's been a hectic few days to say the least. Things will be back on track. Enjoy, y'all.
Thanksgiving Teaser Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
September 08, 2023 01:38 - 21 minutes - 38.5 MBBow your heads, and say your prayers... Eli Roth is back with a holiday themed horror slasher that may ring a bell. I'm not sure just what will be served when he rings said bell, but I know there's cherry pie splashing all over it. Enjoy, folks.
Just One Of The Guys Commentary (Back To School Edition Pt.2)
September 06, 2023 21:54 - 1 hour - 201 MBThere's a disclaimer here... Read it, then enjoy accordingly. Not that there's some BIG issues in my opinion, but it's just that this movie would be considered "controversial" in today's climate. But y'all know how we have fun with the content here, so strap in. Enjoy, people.
The Exorcist: Believer Trailer 2 Reaction/Thoughts
September 05, 2023 20:20 - 28 minutes - 51.5 MBTwo posession victims this time around, so trailer two was expected at this point... But as we get closer to the release of this direct sequel, I don't need anymore trailers. These two have been quite enough. Enjoy, folks.
Dangerous Minds Commentary (Back To School Edition Pt.1)
September 04, 2023 21:10 - 1 hour - 202 MBKicking off this month's theme with my favorite of these types of films... The ones where the teacher tries his/her best to reason with and educate a bunch of bad ass kids/teens. From the moment Gangsta's Paradise sets the opening credits off to the moment these students convince LouAnne Johnson to stay at Parkmont High School. Poetry in motion, pun intended. Enjoy, y'all.
Twisted Metal Ep.5 Commentary (First Time Watch)
September 01, 2023 13:26 - 35 minutes - 65.7 MBI believe there's 5 more episodes left of this show at this point, so I'll make this the point where we break for a bit and let the first half of this season settle in... It's definitely been a solid ride so far, and I'm really looking forward to a strong closer. And some insane car carnage that I came here for in the first place. Enjoy, people.
Twisted Metal Ep.4 Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 30, 2023 22:54 - 40 minutes - 75 MBThe folks that John Doe and Quiet run into during this episode, I had them all wrong... While I prejudged them, they turned out being some of the most interesting characters in the series so far. There's a code of the road they live by, and die by. Enjoy, folks.
Twisted Metal Ep.4 Commentary (First Time)
August 30, 2023 22:54 - 40 minutes - 75 MBThe folks that John Doe and Quiet run into during this episode, I had them all wrong... While I prejudged them, they turned out being some of the most interesting characters in the series so far. There's a code of the road they live by, and die by. Enjoy, folks.
Twisted Metal Ep.3 Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 25, 2023 12:43 - 37 minutes - 68.3 MBMan, I really want to see John Doe make it out of this situation alive... I do. But the more interaction he has with Quiet, the more I feel like she's going to get this man killed. She's got to go. Enjoy, folks.
Twisted Metal Ep.2 Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 23, 2023 12:06 - 39 minutes - 71.4 MBIt may have been a bit weird, but I finally got the proper introduction to the poster child for this property... And when I say Sweet Tooth owns every scene he's in, he triple double stamps it. He's a loon. Enjoy, y'all.
Twisted Metal Ep.1 Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 22, 2023 00:46 - 43 minutes - 79.6 MBInstead of holding out any longer, I'm starting the dishing out process of these prerecorded episodes... I had some thoughts that weren't expected at all. Enjoy, people.
Man Of Steel Commentary
August 18, 2023 12:16 - 2 hours - 280 MBMan, do I wish I would've done this sooner... There's a damn good reason folks praised Henry Cavill as their generation's Superman. Enjoy, y'all.
The Return Of The Living Dead Revisited Commentary (Happy 38th Anniversary)
August 16, 2023 21:02 - 1 hour - 193 MBIt's always party time whenever I decide to come back to this movie, and it never let's me down... I do enough raving about it in the full episode, so I'll let that do the talking. Happy Anniversary to one of the G.O.A.T.s. Enjoy, people.
Street Trash Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 14, 2023 19:49 - 1 hour - 210 MBThese particular types of sleazy exploitation flicks are really my speed but being as though I've heard of this before and Ryan Krueger is directing a remake, this was a proper time... Krueger gave me a little gem called Fried Barry, so there's no telling what he'll bring to the table with this property. Especially after seeing just how insane this original version already is. Enjoy, folks.
Dracula 2000 Commentary
August 11, 2023 20:46 - 1 hour - 199 MBThis movie opens with The Demeter making it's way to London, and today is the official release of The Last Voyage Of The Demeter... I feel this couldn't have been a better time. It's a full circle moment, but I've always honestly had so much love for this iteration of Dracula and how it was a brand new intro to the story. There's also tons of eye candy that make vampirism extremely tempting. Enjoy, folks.
The Continental Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
August 10, 2023 12:21 - 31 minutes - 57.9 MBI'm starting to think that 2023 will close at as one of the years that kept proving me wrong more times than I planned... I never saw the need for a prequel of any kind really when it came to John Wick, but Peacock had other plans. Enjoy, y'all.
Insidious: The Red Door Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 09, 2023 12:26 - 1 hour - 216 MBY'all know I'm not into these movies... But I was VERY surprised at how into this movie I actually was. It was pretty decent to see Patrick Wilson helm a film in a series he been so invested in. This was interesting to say the least. Enjoy, folks.
Twilight Of The Dead Is In The Works (My Thoughts, Questions, Concerns)
August 07, 2023 18:57 - 36 minutes - 67.1 MBIt really goes without saying at this point, but I'll say it... George A. Romero is the G.O.A.T., and I want everything his name is associated with to be epic. But I'm worried here. I am. Enjoy, people.
Meg 2: The Trench Spoiler Talk
August 05, 2023 23:09 - 48 minutes - 89.3 MBLike I said, the title and the trailers aren't fooling a single soul... There's no way to NOT know this movie was going to go completely insane this time around. As a sequel should. I wish it was still Shark Week while dropping this, but there's more in store than several new Megalodons on screen here. Enjoy, people.
Diary Of A Mad Black Woman Commentary (First Time Watch)
August 05, 2023 12:19 - 2 hours - 243 MBThis is a slight switch for me content wise, because I don't think I ever had intentions on watching this movie... But I had no clue the cast was stacked like this and didn't know I was familiar with this director. I thought Tyler Perry was behind the camera but he wasn't, which sometimes tends to work differently for me. Enjoy, y'all.
Strays Trailer 2 Reaction/Thoughts
August 03, 2023 17:12 - 24 minutes - 45.6 MBThere's a wide audience who still loves a warm hearted and family oriented animal adventure on screen... And I'm sure they'll understand from the first trailer alone that this isn't any of what I just mentioned. This is if your childhood animals in films developed the most obscene and raunchy humor ever. And I'm here for it. Enjoy, people.
Christopher Landon In Talks To Direct Scream 7? (My Thoughts; Pros, & Cons)
August 02, 2023 20:02 - 44 minutes - 81.8 MBThis is definitely about to shake things up here... While this is just a rumored thing for the time being, it's not far fetched that Radio Silence may want to center on their Universal project and take a break from Ghostface. So before y'all freak out, there's some good things to tackle outside of the usual bad ones. Enjoy, y'all.
The Last Voyage Of The Demeter Looks Like A Vampire GEM! (Movie Clips Reaction/Thoughts)
August 01, 2023 14:37 - 33 minutes - 61.4 MBMuch like how I felt about Candyman 2021, I stand on the fact that this movie is not getting talked about ENOUGH... This particular portion of the Bram Stoker novel, one chapter, told on the big screen for one movie. We know the outcome, but seeing what transpires before the Demeter gets to London will be nothing shy of horror goodness. The faith I've got in this movie is insane. Enjoy, folks.
A Loner, A Rebel: Rest In Peace, Paul Reubens
July 31, 2023 21:56 - 42 minutes - 78.1 MBVery much an impromptu episode, but this had to be done... This is one of those celebrity deaths that hit childhood and overall nostalgia all across the board. Rest Peacefully, Paul Reubens. You were a true talent and brought smiles that stretched across the world. Enjoy, people.
Saw X Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 30, 2023 19:10 - 31 minutes - 58.5 MBIt's a tad bit strange that a Saw movie is releasing in September instead of it's classic October release were used to, but here's hoping... Saw is a franchise that I've never given up on, so let's see if John Kramer's new trap house is as insane as the others. Enjoy, people.
They Cloned Tyrone Commentary (First Time Watch)
July 28, 2023 12:54 - 2 hours - 239 MBNow that we know Jamie Foxx is alive and well and healing, STOP all the theorizing about who he may or may not be... It's good to see him on screen again. But this movie however, definitely won't help the conspiracy theorists develop a chill button. There's layers here, there's conspiracies proven right, there's twists and turns galore. Enjoy, y'all.
The Exorcist: Believer Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 26, 2023 00:06 - 30 minutes - 56.6 MBY'all know how I feel about movies like this... But I can honestly say that I went into this willing to give it a fair shot. Enjoy, people.
The Flash Commentary
July 24, 2023 14:10 - 2 hours - 283 MBIt's obvious that I'm not one of those folks who have casted out Ezra Miller and completely ruled out this film... No, even amid the controversy, this was still one of the most anticipated movies of the year for me. And I made sure I got a small disclaimer out before nerding out to this entire flick. Love it, or leave it. Enjoy, y'all.
The Marvels Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 23, 2023 14:44 - 27 minutes - 49.5 MBAnother go round with the MCU's new trio of heroes, and I'm glad the Girl Power theme is pissing folks off... It's well deserved at this point and with Nia DaCosta at the helm here, I'm hoping this is an fun time. Enjoy, y'all.
Scary Movie Commentary
July 21, 2023 11:56 - 1 hour - 182 MBObviously this movie isn't for the easily offended or the sensitive listeners overall but come to think of it, I'm not sure any of my episodes are particularly held back with words here... This is me basically letting y'all know what we're in for. It's the Wayans, it's outrageous, it's Scary Movie! So let's go a bit crazy with the content and cut loose. Enjoy, folks.
Willy's Wonderland Commentary (First Time Watch)
July 20, 2023 11:43 - 1 hour - 186 MBI'm not a fan of the whole Five Nights At Freddy's thing, but apparently it's a popular enough property to get it's own horror comedy based on it... There's also another version coming out soon, but Nicolas Cage is the man of the hour here. Unfortunately he's got to spend more than a few hours in this run down place fighting off possessed animatronic animals. I'm not joking, that's the actual plot here. Enjoy, people.
It's Party Time: A Return Of The Living Dead Reboot Is On The Way
July 18, 2023 11:31 - 56 minutes - 103 MBYou can't kill something that's already dead they say, and some would argue that this franchise has been long dead since the 2000s... But some creators out there would beg to differ because a reboot is finally on the way. But there's some very important questions, comments, and concerns that I have here. It has to be said. Enjoy, y'all.
Annihilation Commentary (First Time Watch)
July 15, 2023 00:10 - 2 hours - 231 MBThis is another that was recommended to me on Facebook and being as though I had seen a small clip that had me into it, it was a no brainer once I was being super sold on this by an outside party. What I thought was just a creature feature took me COMPLETELY by surprise. Enjoy, people.
Blue Beetle Final Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 13, 2023 13:28 - 25 minutes - 47.5 MBThere's no doubt that Jamie Reyes and his Blue Beetle persona have me excited as hell, but this trailer is just more incentive for me to keep that hype train on the tracks... This is looking like a good jumping off point for the new DCU. Enjoy, people.
Wonka Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 12, 2023 11:57 - 30 minutes - 56.5 MBI'm not sure if the backstory on Willy Wonka in the Tim Burton remake is to blame here, but I'm curious as to how many people actually wanted to know how young Wonka came up in the chocolate game... I can honestly say I wasn't one of them. But if I'm intrigued about one thing here, it's how Timothee Chamalet will portray this version of the classic character. Risky business nonetheless. Enjoy, people.
Twisted Metal Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 11, 2023 14:05 - 25 minutes - 45.8 MBIf I can't get a Vigilante 8 live action movie, I guess this will do for now... It has my curiosity, but I'm just not sure it will lock me in like I want it to. We shall see. Enjoy, folks.
The Blackening Commentary (First Time Watch)
July 11, 2023 00:10 - 1 hour - 201 MBWith all the yelling and screaming at the screen I do watching horror flicks, whether in my head or out loud, this is one of those movies that speaks directly to me... While there's tons of moments I can and can't relate to, I feel like there's plenty of blueprints here to either survive the horror genre as a black person, or find yourself on the chopping block. Enjoy, y'all.
The Nun 2 Trailer Reaction/Thoughts
July 06, 2023 21:29 - 30 minutes - 56.7 MBI was going to make a lame pun here in regards to the title, but I changed my mind... I want "nun" of that nonsense in this episode. Right? No? Sorry, I'm just making y'all suffer through what I feel this movie will do to me, like all the rest do. Enjoy, people.
Uncle Sam IntoxiCommentary (Happy 4th Of July)
July 04, 2023 11:31 - 1 hour - 188 MBIt's always an interesting time when an undead serial killer is going after folks who kind of sort of maybe almost deserve their demise... The unpatriotic people of this small town are hard to root for when Uncle Sam shows up, but they're damn sure easy to make fun of. This is a bad good time, but I'm sure y'all already know what's in store based on the title alone. Enjoy, people.
Silent Night Deadly Night Commentary
June 26, 2023 20:49 - 1 hour - 183 MBChristmas came early here, much like some of these very naughty folks who end up running afoul of a killer dressed as Santa Claus... I don't frequent this movie much at all, but it was a good time to revisit. This one had parents in a frenzy during the 80s due to the subject matter, but I'm not an uptight person when it comes to my horror. This was actually more fun than I expected it to be. Enjoy, folks.
The Chi Season 6 Trailer Breakdown & Predictions
June 22, 2023 16:07 - 48 minutes - 89.5 MBI've been waiting on this new season to start for a long time... And it wasn't the moment season 5 ended, it was the moment season 5 came in swinging the way they did. This is such a well crafted series with so many different elements that give outsiders a particular view of Chicago. This is the most I've visited the area and while it's via tv series, it's a hell of a ride that I'm ready for again. Enjoy, people.
Kraven The Hunter Trailer Talk
June 21, 2023 18:17 - 47 minutes - 86.8 MBThis is yet another comic book property that I'm going into blind, and I don't mind it much because I'm always down to do a dig for the source material... That being said, this was much more than I ever tried to expect here. I can always count on Sony to try something outside of the norm and stand out. Enjoy, y'all.
Fast X Commentary
June 12, 2023 20:56 - 2 hours - 258 MBNo long caption needed... We know why we're here, and I loved it. Enjoy, folks.
Lover's Lane Commentary (Shit Show Edition Pt. 9)
June 08, 2023 22:26 - 1 hour - 179 MBIf there's love in the air and the small town teens are horny, it's got to be a slasher movie, right?... But this isn't your average killer with a hook for a hand coming back to the area for vengeance. No, this is a hook wielding killer who may or may not know that there may be another killer on the loose with the help of another killer. And if you think me attempting to explain the twists and turns and messy script here, just wait until the film gets going. A guilty pleasure, but a cringe wo...
Pearl Commentary (First Time Watch)
June 04, 2023 11:06 - 1 hour - 201 MBI was very much against this, due to the fact that last year's movie X was a home run and didn't need another entry... Clearly there was much more backstory to tell as far as our titular character here. Prequels often come off as very unnecessary at times, but this ended up being one hell of a flick and it absolutely gives us a dive into the thing that drove Pearl off her rocker. And what she endures is insult to injury since she's already insane to begin with. Enjoy, people.
Dwayne Johnson Is Getting A Fast X Follow Up
June 02, 2023 00:10 - 35 minutes - 65.1 MB"Praise to the Car Gods, man!"... So not only did Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson make a HUGE surprise cameo appearance during the post credits sequence of Fast X, but it's been announced that he's now getting a solo spin off movie taking place after the film. Y'all can imagine my excitement about all this and my scattered brain overworking, but I took some time to vent it out. Enjoy, folks.
What Dreams May Come Commentary (First Time Watch)
May 31, 2023 11:13 - 2 hours - 227 MBHere's another requested flick, and I've got to be honest when I say that I probably wouldn't have checked this out otherwise... But here's to being a man of the people. No matter how strange or surreal this movie gets at times, it is a constant reminder that Robin Williams had either a heavy or subtle comedic charm that still lives on to this day. The man can do no wrong on screen. Even when he's looking for his lost love in the most odd depiction of Hell I've seen in a movie. And it does in...
