  • Episode 424 - The Favourite
    Nov 18 2025

    This week, we're finish up our Lanthimos kick with the film that brought the director to a wide audience. We are divided on this one again, but the visual style and humor are enough to get a recommendation from at least two of us. The Favourite (2018), directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.

  • Episode 423 - Bugonia
    Nov 11 2025

    This week, we're continuing our Lanthimos kick with a film that is currently in theaters. We are a bit divided on how this one ended up, but we can say that if your a fan of the director, this one is worth seeing blind. Bugonia (2025), directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.

  • Episode 422 - Dogdooth
    Nov 4 2025

    This week, we find ourselves in October (when we recorded). And you know what that means? Scary films! The final week brings us to the director who gave us Poor Things. We can't in good conscience recommend watching this movie to any listeners, but if you want to be disturbed and witness some of the obvious filmmaking talent of early Yorgos, you may want to dare. Dogtooth (2009), directed by Yorgos Lanthimos.

  • Episode 421 - Zodiac
    Oct 28 2025

    This week, we find ourselves in October. And you know what that means? Scary films! Week three brings us back to the director who gave us Seven and Gone Girl (both on the top 250). More of a thriller/crime procedural, this film nonetheless has at least one of the scariest scenes ever put to film. Zodiac (2007), directed by David Fincher.

  • Episode 420 - Kwaidan
    Oct 20 2025

    This week, we find ourselves in October. And you know what that means? Scary films! Week two brings us back to the director who gave us the old film newly on the top 250, Harakiri (1962). Lots of people consider this horror, but after a viewing, it seems more like a series of fantasy stories with ghosts. Kwaidan (1964), directed by Masaki Kobayashi.

  • Episode 418 - One Battle After Another
    Oct 7 2025

    This week, we go to the theaters to see was will most certainly be a frontrunner for best picture of 2025. This film blends action, drama, political commentary, and, most importantly, humor into a unique yet accessible joyride. See this one in the theaters if you can. One Battle After Another (2025), directed by Paul Thomas Anderson.

  • Episode 417 - Eraserhead
    Sep 29 2025

    It's September, and to celebrate the fall season, we are doing a month of David Lynch movies. Lynch is criminally under represented in the Top 250, so we wanted to honor the legendary film maker with a run of some of his most acclaimed work. This week, we finish it off with his first film, Eraserhead (1977).
