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.

Hello Trashbags! The GenreCast is back to wrap up the year 2023 proper with a tradition we've been observing the past few years—a look at the highest grossing (Domestic) movie of the year. And this year, we've gone pink as Barbie hits the analysis table. Greta Gerwig's take on the iconic doll created a firestorm over the summer—are we charmed with it? Is it Kenough? Or is it time to move out of the Barbie world? Tune in now as we ask these questions and more while discussing Barbie.
