321 - The Stuff
"Habit-forming. Mind-controlling"
This week’s podcast episode has EVERYTHING. We’re diving into the cult classic, The Stuff. It's like if your vanilla yogurt was a crystal ball into our social media-obsessed future—creepy, addictive, and turning everyone into mindless zombies craving more. Join us as we explore how this gooey, marshmallow-like treat from the '80s wasn’t just a dessert, but a prophecy about how social media would meld our minds into one big, hive-mind megazord. Don’t miss this chilling yet delicious breakdown of consumer culture gone wild.

320 - Annihilation
"One way in. No way out"
2018's hottest movie is Annihilation. This movie has everything: shimmering walls, mutant alligators, and talking plants. This sci-fi thriller is like if Darwin and David Lynch designed a bio-dome. Picture this: Natalie Portman, a grieving biologist, leads a team of equally tormented scientists into a glittery, rainbow-colored death trap called "The Shimmer". And the climax? Imagine a dance-off with your own shadow that might just swallow your soul. It’s the ultimate trip—literally.

319 - War of the Worlds (2005)
"The one where we see an accurate representation of Tom Cruise as a dad"
Join the gang this week while we break down an H. G. Wells story so iconic that everyone thinks Orson Welles (possibly related) wrote it. There is a lot of like about this movie. There is also a lot to dislike, and his name is Robbie. But at the end of the day we had a blast talking about this one. Enjoy.

318 - 28 Weeks Later
"Quarantine. Eradication. Sterilization. Repopulation"
Listen. I'm gonna level with you. It's the kids fault. Like everything in this movie is the kids fault. If Hawkeye had just done his job and shot Andy in the face London wouldn't be getting blown up and gassed by NATO right now. Speaking of that. I'm typing this from my hotel room in London. I gotta go. I hear some commotion on the street.

316 - Dawn of the Dead (1978)
"Night of the Living Dead is over. Dawn of the Dead is here."
Join the gang this week while we break down a movie that really laid the ground work for all the zombie movies that came after it. We had a blast breaking down the ins and outs of this movie. We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we enjoyed talking about it.

The only podcast I listen to with any regularity!
I exclusively refer to DiGiorno pizza as Desjardins now. Thank you for that.😌🍕🐍
Thank you!
I came here after being a loyal listener to Cult Podcast and really enjoying Mikey and Todd when they guest starred. I am a scaredy-cat and wasn’t able to watch horror movies, but I was so interested in what the genre was doing with movies like Get Out and Hereditary. I love that they give a play by play and I can listen to the episode first and understand what I’m getting myself into. I actually can watch horror movies now and I really appreciate all of your perspectives!
5 stars for my crew!
Came here to say I immediately went out to buy jalapeño honey hummus after that one episode and it did not disappoint. Thanks for the rec Mikey
