    Take 219: Creature Feature Mayhem - Don’t Touch the Ground (or Stay Drunk)

    Mostly Film — Creature Feature Mayhem: Don’t Touch the Ground (or Stay Drunk) This week, we’re diving into rule-based creature chaos with Tremors (1990) vs. Grabbers (2012). One says don’t touch the ground. The other says… stay drunk. We break down why simple rules make creature movies work, comparing practical, desert survival in Tremors with the chaotic, alcohol-fueled island madness of Grabbers. It’s tension vs. comedy, teamwork vs. controlled chaos, and practical effects vs. high-concept weirdness. Plus: creature rankings, worst survival decisions, and which rule we’d fail immediately. Which movie wins the double feature? And more importantly… which rule are you trusting to stay alive?

    Take 218: The End of Oak Street, Send Help, & Project Hail Mary

    Mostly Film This week on Mostly Film, we’re back with another round of LIST IT or NIX IT, breaking down trailers like The End of Oak Street, Apex, Faces of Death, and more to decide what’s worth adding to the watchlist. Then we jump into What We’ve Been Watching — from Project Hail Mary and Send Help to rewatches like Rushmore and Hail, Caesar!, plus TV picks like The Pitt, Invincible, Daredevil, and Young Sherlock. We keep it light, focusing on what stood out without spoiling everything. Finally, we wrap with a packed News segment: a new Lord of the Rings sequel is in the works, Disney pulls back from AI deals, TikTok is entering TV, and Hollywood continues to get… weird (yes, Jack Black wants to star in Yakuza). It’s trailers, takes, and chaos, just another week on Mostly Film.

    Take 217: Creature Feature Mayhem- Apex Intelligence

    Mostly Film — Creature Feature Mayhem: Apex Intelligence This week, we’re diving into primate horror with Congo (1995) vs. Primate (2026), spectacle vs. straight-up nightmare fuel. We break down what makes primates uniquely terrifying: intelligence, communication, and that unsettling “almost human” energy. From Congo’s jungle adventure chaos and killer gorillas to Primate’s grounded, close-quarters brutality, we compare myth vs. realism, camp vs. pure horror, and which approach hits harder. Plus: creature rankings, worst deaths, survival odds, and the big question: Is a thinking creature the scariest kind of monster?

    Take 215: Creature Feature Mayhem - Gators, Crocs & Chaos

    Mostly Film — Creature Feature Mayhem: Gators, Crocs & Chaos This week, we’re heading into the water with Lake Placid (1999) and Crawl (2019) to break down what makes crocodile and alligator horror so effective — or so ridiculous. We compare campy creature comedy vs. straight-up survival horror, from Betty White stealing scenes in Lake Placid to the intense, flood-soaked tension of Crawl. Along the way, we debate realism vs. mythic monsters, open water vs. claustrophobic spaces, and which movie actually understands what makes these predators so terrifying. Plus: creature rankings, worst deaths, survival odds, and our final verdict on which film wins the double feature.

Then we get into what’s been in our rotation lately — from Hoppers, The Bride, and Anaconda to shows like The Pitt, Peaky Blinders, and Survivor — sharing the performances and moments that stuck with us. We wrap things up with the latest movie news, including big Oscar takeaways, a new Firefly animated series in the works, Spielberg teasing a “kick ass” Western, and updates on everything from G.I. Joe to The Lord of the Rings. Catch us wherever you get your podcasts, and follow along on Letterboxd to see what we’re watching next.

    Take 213: Creature Feature Mayhem - Snakes in the System

    Mostly Film — Creature Feature Mayhem: Snakes in the System This week, we’re diving headfirst into snake-infested chaos with a double feature: the ‘90s jungle pulp classic Anaconda (1997) and the internet-era spectacle Snakes on a Plane (2006). We break down what makes snake horror so uniquely unsettling: constriction, venom, cold-blooded calculation. And debate the big question: is absurd sincerity better than full-blown meme chaos? From Jon Voight going completely off the rails to Samuel L. Jackson holding the cabin together at 30,000 feet, we compare jungle vs. airplane, singular monster vs. swarm, practical effects vs. CGI, and which film truly understands what makes snakes scary. Plus: creature rankings, worst possible deaths, survival odds, and our final verdict on which movie wins the double feature. Listen wherever you get your podcasts, and follow us on Letterboxd to see what we’re watching next.
