A movie analysis show looking at your favorite cult and genre films from across cinema history. Each week, Dustin, Arthur, and Dalton try to apply academic rigor and critical analysis to the films you wouldn’t talk about in a film studies class while having a few laughs along the way. It’s the conversations you have in the lobby of the multiplex with a little more room to breathe, and the occasional footnote. Stay tuned to the feed for bonus episodes on new releases.

We thought we were done knowing Jack, but this week, he seems to have reared his ugly head once again—kind of. This week, Dustin continues Killing His Darlings with the 1990 Touchstone Pictures release: Spaced Invaders. This homage to War of the Worlds, and probably Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, is a fascinating bomb from the era of high concept. We talk pastiche, homage, War of the Worlds, capitalism, Jack Nicholson, and much, much more as we bring Spaced Invaders to the analysis table. Join us now!

Poor Things (2023)

Thursday Mar 26, 2026
Alright weirdos! We're pulling our Steampunk Train into the harbor this week as we wrap up our Heart of Stone marathon in the best way we know how–by getting strange with it. We end this marathon with a look at the unique collaboration between Emma Stone and Yorgos Lanthimos. Poor Things is our choice here, but any of the four team ups are worth talking about. This week, we gotta talk about sex, baby. We talk about stories about women by men (as three men, we're experts in this), and we discuss Emma Stone's turn from Hollywood A-Lister to versatile artist looking for a challenging role. Join us this week as we analyze Poor Things and end our Heart of Stone marathon.
