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.

Grab the pigskin and let's hit the field, we're knockin' heads and diving into the end zone to discuss the high school sports classic, Varsity Blues. We've got Van Der Beek, baby Paul Walker, Amy Smart, and the wonderful Ali Larter trying to make it out of small town Texas. We talk about cycles of power, taking back power, labor and safety, the dangers of the cult of football, and much more as we look back at this high school comedy.
