    The End of Oak Street (2026) Screamtober

    ScreamTober has officially gone prehistoric, and somebody needs to call Jurassic Park because their dinosaurs are running loose in the suburbs! This week on Movie Torture, Mark, Brad, and MTD sink their teeth into the 2026 sci-fi adventure The End of Oak Street, starring Ewan McGregor and Anne Hathaway. What happens when an ordinary neighborhood gets transported into a world filled with hungry dinosaurs? Apparently, you get family drama, questionable parenting, flying reptiles, and the largest pile of dinosaur dookie ever discussed on a podcast. But forget the dinosaurs for a minute. WHY IS OBI-WAN KENOBI DELIVERING PIZZA? Brad and Mark investigate Ewan McGregor's disappearing American accent, Anne Hathaway's never-ending movie schedule, and whether delivering pepperoni pizzas is really the worst thing a husband can do. Meanwhile, Brad unveils his Hollywood masterpiece pitch featuring B-list T. rexes, discount velociraptors, and a Mark Wahlberg impression that somehow turns into a commercial for Wahlburgers. MTD attempts to maintain order while the conversation takes more unexpected turns than a dinosaur loose in a shopping mall. PLUS! WHO BUYS THIS CRAP? returns with another collection of Craigslist treasures nobody asked for! We've got a $25 copy of Practical Magic, a Johnny Mathis Christmas VHS, a suspiciously overpriced autographed Lost in Space tape, and a horror movie called And Then You Die that doesn't even come with a box!

    Bonus: Tales From the Crypt Watch-Along

    ScreamTober is getting a little more cryptic, and this time YOU'RE WATCHING WITH US! For the first time in Movie Torture history, Mark and Brad are inviting you to grab the remote, fire up Tubi, and experience the madness right alongside them! We're watching Tales from the Crypt — Season 3, Episode 3: "The Trap", directed by none other than Michael J. Fox! And here's the best part: Neither Mark nor Brad has ever seen this episode, so you're getting their completely unfiltered, totally unpredictable reactions as everything unfolds! HOW TO WATCH ALONG: Open the free streaming app Tubi, search for Tales from the Crypt, and pull up Season 3, Episode 3, "The Trap." Start playing our Movie Torture podcast episode on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you listen. When Brad and Mark give the countdown, hit PLAY on Tubi at the same time! You'll hear their hilarious running commentary as you watch the episode with them. Pause the podcast while you get everything ready, and if the streams get out of sync, just pause and catch up! And what an episode to experience together! We've got a pizza delivery guy with a financial plan straight out of a prison documentary, a wife who deserves a vacation, a brother making some highly questionable career decisions, and an insurance scam that makes the average Craigslist listing look trustworthy. Meanwhile, Mark considers spending the night in the Crypt Keeper's house, Brad suggests a brand-new hairstyle called THE SKULLET, and the guys somehow turn a horror episode into a discussion about Robert Zemeckis, Back to the Future, Wahlburgers, Elvis Presley, and whether Mr. Strickland will ever stop chasing slackers. PLUS! There's an unexpected Michael J. Fox appearance, a mustache that refuses to disappear, an island getaway, and a courtroom situation that might be the most ridiculous legal proceeding since somebody tried to sue McDonald's over hot coffee. And because this is the first-ever watch-along, there's an additional villain nobody anticipated: TUBI COMMERCIAL BREAKS! Will Mark and Brad stay synchronized, or will one of them end up watching the ending while the other is still stuck on an advertisement? It's horror, nostalgia, insurance fraud, terrible disguises, and two grown men providing the kind of commentary that would get them permanently removed from a movie theater. One TV episode. Two microphones. Zero idea what's coming next. Don't just listen to Movie Torture — WATCH IT WITH US! Welcome to Movie Torture — we review the bad movies so you don't have to… but this time, you're coming along for the ride!

    Ice Cream Man (2026) Screamtober

    I scream, you scream, and Mark screams because Brad somehow thinks this movie is a masterpiece. This week on Movie Torture, Brad and Mark dive into Eli Roth's Ice Cream Man (2026), where a creepy, silent ice cream vendor serves up frozen treats that turn innocent kids into murderous little psychopaths. It's got killer kids, buckets of gore, questionable parenting, and a plot that makes about as much sense as buying a used DVD in a grocery store parking lot for 25 cents. Before the blood starts flowing, Who Buys This Crap? returns with bargain-bin DVDs, suspicious Craigslist sellers, and a very serious investigation into whether Cher movies can smell like cigarettes. Meanwhile, Jacob fills in for an absent MTD and wastes no time heckling from the chat. But the real insanity begins when Brad and Jacob imagine Mark going to prison, where his only claim to fame is being a former contestant on FOX's The Floor. What follows is one of the funniest bits in Movie Torture history, as Mark's imaginary prison reputation takes a turn that makes the ice cream man look downright friendly. And somewhere between severed heads, Eli Roth's questionable decisions, and Brad defending the indefensible, Brad and Mark find themselves on completely opposite sides of the ice cream truck. Will this frozen nightmare earn Movie Gold or leave someone screaming Movie Torture? Two hosts. One ice cream truck. One imaginary prison sentence. Absolutely zero agreement. Grab a cone, turn off your brain, and enjoy the meltdown. This episode gets messy.

    Resident Evil (2026) Screamtober

    This week on Movie Torture, Brad, Mark, and MTD head to Raccoon City for the brand-new Resident Evil—a movie packed with zombies, mutant monsters, flying body parts, a very determined organ courier, and enough chaos to make everyone question why anyone would willingly live in this town. Brad knows absolutely nothing about the video games, Mark attempts to explain the lore, and MTD checks in from the beach while somehow getting dragged into the movie because our hero drives what appears to be MTD’s old Subaru. Along the way, the guys pitch their own version of Resident Evil starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Mark Wahlberg, debate the survival skills of a man who suddenly becomes an expert marksman, make an official pact to take each other out if any of them become zombies, and wonder how a $65 million zombie movie somehow turned into one of the wildest theater experiences they’ve had all year. Plus, before they even get to the movie, Brad brings another round of “Who Buys This Crap?” featuring overpriced VHS tapes, secret words, John Travolta, Andy Griffith, and collectibles that absolutely nobody was asking for. Zombies. Subarus. Organs. Schwarzenegger impressions. Questionable survival decisions. And MTD watching the whole disaster unfold from the chat. Welcome to Raccoon City. Try not to get eaten.

    The Whisper Man (2026)

    This week on Movie Torture, Brad, Mark, and MTD take on Netflix’s The Whisper Man—a movie featuring Robert De Niro, Adam Scott, Michelle Monaghan, and a surprise appearance from Batman himself, Michael Keaton. The guys break down the movie’s painfully predictable mystery, try to figure out where Netflix keeps finding all this money, and wonder why Adam Scott basically disappears halfway through his own movie. But as usual, the movie is only half the conversation. Brad discovers MTD actually likes Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, the guys go down a rabbit hole about dogs, Facebook Marketplace, Tarantino movies, and legacy sequels—and a brand-new Movie Torture segment is born: “Who Buys This Crap?” Plus, there’s Michael Keaton, De Niro impressions, Netflix slander, and one VERY weird scene at the end that absolutely has to be discussed. We watch the bad movies so you don’t have to.

    Practical Magic (1998)

    This week on Movie Torture, Brad, Mark, and MTD take on Practical Magic—a movie that promises witches, curses, romance, and supernatural chaos, but leaves the guys with a whole lot of questions. Along the way, they try to figure out where the movie’s massive budget went, recreate what may have been the strangest Hollywood pitch meeting of 1998, debate whether anyone actually does witchcraft in this witch movie, and somehow wander into Liam Neeson, The Thin Red Line, Salem being the Myrtle Beach of witchcraft, and Brad’s questionable decision to pay actual money to see Polish Wedding. Plus, there’s a detective from Tucson, margaritas, a death beetle, MTD trying to keep everyone on track, and enough tangents to make you forget what movie they’re supposed to be reviewing. Grab your broomstick and join us as we try to answer one very important question: Where is the practical magic?

    Apex (2026)

    Brad and Mark take on Netflix’s Apex, a movie that somehow combines Cliffhanger, The River Wild, The Hunt, a cannibal thriller, and what feels suspiciously like an AI-generated screenplay. Charlize Theron gets chased through the Australian wilderness by Taron Egerton, who gives her exactly four minutes to run while blasting The Chemical Brothers—and somehow that’s the best four minutes of the entire movie. Along the way, the guys debate funeral peas, celebrate Brad’s legendary fourth-grade spelling bee championship, question how anyone survives a bear trap, and discover that apparently cannibalism is all it takes for the conversation to turn into planning MTD’s barbecue dinner. Brad decides MTD’s rump roast would be the prime cut, adds slaw and a toasted bun, fires up the Traeger, and somehow Mark ends up worried that if he ever visits Brad’s house, he needs to verify exactly where the barbecue came from. Oh, and somewhere in there they actually review Apex—a movie Mark describes as about seven different movies mashed together, with none of them being particularly good. Come for the movie review. Stay to find out why MTD somehow ended up as dinner.

    Ice Cream Man (1995)

    Brad and Mark scoop into 1995’s Ice Cream Man, a movie featuring Clint Howard, bugs in the ice cream, a kidnapped kid named Small Paul, a wildly random Steve Garvey appearance, and enough questionable filmmaking decisions to make you wonder if anyone actually read the script. Along the way, Jacob gets promoted to MTD Lite, the guys investigate the secret economy of ice cream trucks, pitch Rob Gronkowski in a Hunter reboot, question whether Ron Howard ever actually watched his brother’s movie, and unveil a brand-new “Level of Torture” rating system. Spoiler: Ice Cream Man scores VERY high. Brad even declares it one of the five worst movies he’s ever watched for Movie Torture—which, after nearly 200 bad movies, is basically a cinematic war crime. We watched it so you don’t have to. Seriously. Don’t.
