    Episode 580 - Greenland 2: Migration

    On this episode, we review Greenland 2: Migration (2026) and discuss whether the sequel builds on the 2020 original. We talk about the film's shift from a disaster movie to a post-apocalyptic survival thriller, Gerard Butler's return, the expanded world-building, the action sequences, and whether the emotional core that made the first film work is still intact. We also share our thoughts on the SCRIPT as well as da pacing. As always, we wrap things up with our final scores and answer the biggest question: Is Greenland 2: Migration worth making the journey to see? -- We will be reviewing requests from patrons once a month.

    Episode 578 - We Bury the Dead

    WARNING: We do delve into spoilers. This week we are discussing We Bury the Dead (2024...2026). After a catastrophic military accident devastates Tasmania and leaves the dead mysteriously reanimating, Ava (Daisy Ridley) joins a body retrieval unit in a desperate search for her missing husband. What begins as a post-apocalyptic survival story quickly evolves into a haunting exploration of grief, closure, and the emotional baggage we carry long after loss. We discuss the film's themes of unfinished business, the unusual behavior of its undead, and whether the ending delivers a satisfying payoff. Does We Bury the Dead offer something fresh in the zombie genre, or does its slower, more contemplative approach leave too much buried beneath the surface? Join us as we discuss We Bury the Dead and find out where it lands on our scorecards. -- We will be reviewing requests from patrons once a month.

    Episode 577 - Backrooms

    This week on CinemaChat Podcast, we're stepping into the endless maze of Backrooms (2026), the feature film adaptation of the viral internet horror phenomenon. Directed by Kane Parsons, the film follows a therapist searching for a missing man who has become trapped inside a bizarre alternate reality filled with impossible architecture, mysterious entities, and more questions than answers. We discuss how effectively the film expands the mythology of the original online videos, whether its atmosphere and tension can sustain a feature-length runtime, and how the performances from Chiwetel Ejiofor and Renate Reinsve help ground an otherwise surreal experience. We also examine the film's stunning visual design, and the challenge of balancing mystery with explanation. Along the way, we debate the film's ambiguous ending, compare it to other psychological and liminal-space horror films, and discuss whether Backrooms succeeds as both a standalone movie and an adaptation of a beloved internet phenomenon. So where does Backrooms rank among the year's horror releases, and did it manage to escape the curse of internet-property adaptations?

    Episode 576 - I Love Boosters

    This week on CinemaChat, we dive into I Love Boosters (2026), the latest wildly original film from Boots Riley. Set in a surreal version of the Bay Area, the film follows Corvette (Keke Palmer) and her crew of fashion-savvy shoplifters as they target a ruthless fashion mogul who profits from stolen ideas and exploited labor. What starts as a stylish heist comedy quickly evolves into a bizarre mix of social satire, science fiction, labor activism, and anti-capitalist commentary. We discuss Riley's trademark blend of absurd humor and political messaging, the film's stacked ensemble cast, its unforgettable visual style, and whether its ambitious ideas come together as successfully as his previous work, Sorry to Bother You. Is I Love Boosters a bold and brilliant satire, or does it get lost in its own ambitions? Join us as we break down the performances, themes, weirdest moments, and whether this fashion-fueled revolution belongs on your must-watch list. Then stick around to hear our final ratings. -- We will be reviewing requests from patrons once a month.

    Episode 575 - Obsession

    This week on the podcast, we’re reviewing Obsession (2026), the new horror film from rising filmmaker Curry Barker that’s been generating a ton of buzz online and on the festival circuit. What starts as an awkward romantic wish-fulfillment story quickly spirals into something disturbing, uncomfortable, and completely unhinged. We talk about the film’s blend of horror and dark comedy, the nightmare-fuel performance from Inde Navarrette, and why so many critics are calling this one of the breakout horror movies of 2026. We also get into the movie’s themes of control, obsession, toxic relationships, and the film’s shocking moments. Plus, we discuss the direction from Barker, the movie’s chaotic tone shifts, the effectiveness of the gore and psychological horror, and whether this is a future cult classic or simply a mean-spirited endurance test. Was Obsession one of the year’s best horror films, or did it push things too far for us? Tune in to hear our full review and final scores. -- We will be reviewing requests from patrons once a month.

    Episode 574 - Mortal Kombat II

    This week on CinemaChat... we enter the TOURNAMENT once again (for the first time) with our review of Mortal Kombat II! After the mildly disappointing first film, does this sequel level up the action, characters, and fatalities… or does it fall victim to the franchise curse? We break down the fights, the new additions to the roster, the fan service, and whether the movie actually delivers the chaotic fun people want from Mortal Kombat. We also talk about the performances, how it compares to the 2021 movie, and where it lands among video game adaptations overall. Did Mortal Kombat II finish us with style… or should this franchise have stayed in the NetherRealm? Tune in to find out our final scores. -- We will be reviewing requests from patrons once a month.
