Join us this week as we fangirl over Thailand’s baby hippo sensation, Moo Deng, and quote TS Madison’s iconic "Not the bore worms" line far too many times (but who’s counting?).

In this second round of our Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) reviews, we dive into Dead Mail, a retro 80s thriller with synth beats and unexpected twists that had us glued to the screen. If you love a good mix of horror, nostalgia, and some social commentary, this one’s for you. Plus, we dissect The Substance, a satirical body horror flick starring Demi Moore that tackles women’s anxieties around aging with jaw-dropping visuals, intense thematic layers, and lots of blood.

Next week (September 29th) will be our final episode of season four. We're moving and need to get our studio back up and running. We should be back up in the new year for season five.
