    299 - Podcast of Horror VIII.III: 28 Years Later...

    Just in time for the release of 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, the 2025 Diminishing Returns Halloween special finally enters completion. This time, we're discussing borderline high-fantasy epic 28 Years Later. Was it worth the wait?

    298 - Podcast of Horror VIII.II: 28 Weeks Later

    Rejoice! We decided to cut the wait time between this and our previous episode by 26 weeks. This time, we're looking at the middle chapter of the 28 Days Later franchise: a film that asks the question: "Is a stellar opening sequence enough to buoy an entire feature film?"

    297 - Halloween Special: 28 Days Later...

    It's time for our 2025 Halloween special! Just, uh... 28 days later. There's a reason for that. Can you work out what it is? It's extremely subtle.

    296 - Spectre

    The boys are back with the penultimate James Bond movie (but for how long? Probably quite a while, honestly). It's finally time for Spectre (or SPECTRE?), in which Christoph Waltz amazes everyone with the shocking twist no one saw coming that he's playing Blofeld and James Bond finally finds love like he didn't already do that three movies ago. It's a real surprise of an episode where up is down, left is right and Calvin is the #1,000,000 James Bond fan on YouTube.

    295 - Valentine's Day Special: Sugar Babies: A Cautionary Tale

    Significantly upping the ante from last year's pornographic Valentine's Day special (which reviewed 1972's Deep Throat), this year the show is taking on a much more modern porn movie. Including Diminisodes and the intros for classic episode re-releases, Sol has told Allen about this movie in detail several times now. But does Sugar Babies: A Cautionary Tale live up to the hype?
