Ever miss wandering Blockbuster, picking a movie, and arguing about it after? That’s the vibe here. We’re three friends who love movies and talk about them the way real people do once the credits roll. No critic voices, no lectures, just honest opinions, dumb jokes, and good conversation. Each week we discuss a new movie, usually once it hits streaming, and once a month we make Marvin watch a classic he somehow missed. If you enjoy talking through movies and hearing different takes, pull up a chair and join the conversation.

    175. Possession

    This week on episode #175 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we made Marvin watch Possession for the first time, a movie so singular and uncompromising that the idea of remaking it almost feels impossible. With a new adaptation now in development, we break down what makes the original so difficult to replicate, from its unhinged performances and surreal horror to the deeply personal relationship at the center of it all, and debate what a modern remake could possibly add.We also talk about why physical media may be getting forced into a comeback, what Gen Z actually wants from movies, and whether A24 has lost what once made the studio feel special. Plus we react to Curry Barker taking on The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and what his involvement could mean for one of horror’s most iconic franchises.📌 Chapters00:00 - Physical Media is Getting Forced To Make A Comeback12:20 - What Kinds of Movies Does Gen Z Want To See?18:03 - A24 is Done24:34 - Curry Barker is Making A Texas Chainsaw Massacre26:50 - Possession Review and Why It Shouldn't Be Remade🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Could a Possession remake ever capture what makes the original work, or is this one movie Hollywood should leave alone?🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/ #possession #moviereview #horrormovies

    174. Lee Cronin's The Mummy

    This week on episode #174 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Lee Cronin's The Mummy and debate whether it proves possession horror has finally run out of things to say. The genre has relied on the same ideas for decades, and while this movie tries to put a fresh spin on the formula, we discuss whether it actually brings anything new to the table—or simply reminds us why possession horror has become so creatively stagnant. We also discuss why Evil Dead isn't the same without Ash, whether six years is simply too long to wait for a sequel, and why we still get excited for sequels and prequels despite constantly complaining about them. Plus we debate how many sequels are too many, why the new Scary Movie could actually be a positive sign for Hollywood, and react to Martin Scorsese's controversial decision to embrace AI. 📌 Chapters00:00 - Evil Dead is Nothing Without Ash 27:45 - Is 6 Years Too Long To Wait For A Sequel?32:53 - Sometimes We Get Excited For Sequels and Prequels40:00 - How Many Sequels is Too Many? 50:33 - Scary Movie Might Be a Good Sign for the Movie Industry59:34 - Martin Scorsese Sold Out To AI1:07:00 - Lee Cronin's Lame Excuse For a Creatively Bankrupt Movie1:12:00 - Lee Cronin's The Mummy Review 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Has possession horror genuinely run out of ideas, or can filmmakers still find fresh ways to tell these stories 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/

    173. Hokum

    This week on episode #173 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we cover Hokum, the slow burn Irish folk-horror film that has quietly become one of the most talked about horror movies of the year. With an 89% on Rotten Tomatoes and a genuinely divisive audience reaction, we break down what Hokum actually understands about fear that most modern horror films have stopped bothering with. We also discuss our thoughts on Spider-Noir, and how the MCU needs to take notes, why Hollywood needs to start listening to what audiences are saying, and how Zack Snyder is about to ruin another classic property. 📌 Chapters00:00 - The Difference Between Horror/Comedy, and Comedy/Horror 10:35 - Are You Watching Spider-Noir In Color or B&W? 18:05 - Marvel Should Take Notes From Spider-Noir 21:36 - Hollywood Has A Remake Problem 30:00 - Audiences Are Saying What They Want 34:00 - Zack Snyder is About To Ruin Another Beloved Property 46:04 - How Damian McCarthy Used Old School Horror In Hokum 50:20 - Hokum Review 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Do you think Hokum is a breath of fresh air, or did you think it was boring and not scary? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/

    172. Miracle

    This week on episode #172 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we made Marvin watch Miracle for the first time to see if it still holds up as one of the great sports movies. It has all the pieces: the underdog team, the iconic speech, the Cold War backdrop, and the “do you believe in miracles?” moment. But we also get into the bigger question behind the movie: is Miracle genuinely great sports filmmaking, or is it also wrapped up in American mythmaking and propaganda? We also talk about why recent AI news is exactly what we were worried about, whether Brand New Day could somehow become the best Spider-Man movie ever, and if the horror genre actually needed saving. 📌 Chapters00:00 - This is EXACTLY Why We Were Worried About AI18:30 - Brand New Day is The Best Spiderman Movie EVER?21:39 - Did The Horror Genre Need Saving?34:39 - This is The REAL Reason Disney Ruined Star Wars41:11 - Could We Get A Tango and Cash Sequel?45:15 - Marvin's First Time Watching Miracle!🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Is Miracle one of the greatest sports movies ever made, or is it impossible to separate from American propaganda? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/

    171. Project Hail Mary

    This week on episode #171 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Project Hail Mary, the biggest movie of 2026 so far. With huge expectations and a massive domestic release, it looks like the kind of space survival story audiences already understand, but that might not be what this movie actually is. We break down why Project Hail Mary works differently than expected, how it balances science fiction with emotion, and whether it lives up to the hype. We also talk about whether Punisher: One Last Kill is exactly what everyone expected, how The Walking Dead almost became a very different show, and whether Scream 7’s box office numbers are telling the full story. 📌 Chapters00:00 - Punisher: One Last Kill is Exactly What We Expected15:39 - The Walking Dead Was Almost Very Different and We Can't Get Over It 20:26 - Ghostbusters Fans Have A Lot To Be Excited About23:36 - Are Scream 7's Box office Numbers a Lie? 28:35 - We Need A Break From Star Wars39:32 - Project Hail Mary is The Biggest Domestic Film of 202641:46 - Project Hail Mary Review 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Did Project Hail Mary surprise you, or was it exactly the sci-fi movie you expected? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/

    170. Pizza Movie

    This week on episode #170 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Pizza Movie, a comedy that feels like it was ripped straight out of the 2000s studio comedy era. At a time when theatrical comedies are almost extinct, the movie clearly wants to bring back that chaotic, dumb-fun energy that used to dominate, but does it actually work? We break down whether the humor lands, why this style of comedy disappeared in the first place, and if audiences still even want movies like this anymore. We also talk about why Stephen King fans need to check out Widow’s Bay, and discuss why comic books still struggle to be taken seriously as a storytelling medium. 📌 Chapters00:00 - Stephen King Fans Need To Watch Widow's Bay06:50 - Is Robert Downey Jr Really Playing Dr Doom?12:27 - People Still Don't Take Comic Books Seriously19:12 - We Are Officially Out of The Writers Strike Era23:45 - Pizza Movie Review 🔔Drop a follow so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Does Pizza Movie bring back 2000s comedy films, or has that era passed for good? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/

    169. They Live

    This week on episode #169 of The Harsh Language Podcast, it's Marvin's first time watching They Live! It’s a movie most people think they already understand, but the deeper you go, the more unsettling it actually becomes. On the surface, it’s often reduced to a story about capitalism and consumerism, but we get into the much more uncomfortable idea at the core of the film. We break down why this movie still hits, what makes it so effective, and why it might be one of John Carpenter’s most misunderstood films. We also talk about whether Daredevil: Born Again is actually working, react to a wild X-Men rumor involving Jean Grey and Spider-Man, and discuss why something feels really suspicious about the reviews for the Michael Jackson biopic Michael. 📌 Chapters00:00 - Is Daredevil: Born Again Good?11:15 - This X-Men Rumor Might Confirm That Jean Grey Is in Spiderman20:48 - Something Is Very Wrong With the Michael Reviews33:01 - A Remake No One Asked For, and We Don't Need38:37 - ANOTHER Remake No One Asked For, and We Don't Need42:21 - They Live Review 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next one!💬 Do you think They Live is still relevant today, or do people overstate its message? 🎙️ Listen on your favorite podcast platform: http://bit.ly/4im0Jaq🌐 Connect with us: https://harshlanguage.tv/

    168. Scream 7

    This week on episode #168 of The Harsh Language Podcast, we dive into Scream 7, a movie that felt like it was falling apart before it was even made and somehow still became a massive success. Between behind-the-scenes controversy, cast shakeups, and mixed reactions from critics and audiences, this is one of the strangest releases the franchise has ever had. We break down how Scream 7 ended up becoming the highest grossing film in the series, what works, what doesn’t, and what it says about the franchise moving forward. We also talk about why you need to watch Something Very Bad Is Going To Happen, and discuss how Marvel may have wasted years of audience investment. We also talk about why the Metal Gear movie has us worried, and highlight one of the best horror concepts we’ve seen in a long time. 📌 Chapters 00:00 - You Need to Watch Something Very Bad is Going To Happen 10:16 - Why Are Movie Trailers Being Hidden From Fans? 13:21 - Race Swapping is Getting Out of Hand 15:10 - We're Getting A Sequel No One Wants 16:42 - Marvel Wasted 6 Years of Your Time and Is Hoping You Forgot 25:54 - The Zelda Movie Continues Having Controversy 30:25 - The Metal Gear Movie Has Us Worried...
