About this listen

Stacey and Jr. Sparrow sit down with King Jerm to review a 2026 thriller directed by Sam Raimi, starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien. Jr. calls it his top film of the first quarter of 2026 — a suspenseful, twist-filled ride that kept him on the edge of his seat. Stacey came in for Rachel McAdams and left with a lot to say about the film's morally complex lead character.

What We Cover:

  • First impressions and why this film was on Jr.'s radar early
  • Sam Raimi's filmography and how this film compares to his usual style (think Evil Dead, Drag Me to Hell, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness)
  • Stacey's "you go, girl" reaction to the main character's big reveal
  • The moment Stacey says the character went too far — and what she would have done differently
  • The subtle clues you might miss on a first watch (and why Jr. wants to rewatch it)
  • Comparisons to M. Night Shyamalan's Old and other suspense films from recent years

By the Numbers:

  • Budget: $40 million
  • Box Office: $90.4 million
  • Rotten Tomatoes: 93% positive
  • Metacritic: 75/100
  • CinemaScore: B+

The Verdict: A well-earned B+ in the hosts' book — with Jr. ready to rewatch for hidden clues and Stacey impressed by the lead's calculated, survivor-mentality performance.
