  • The RIP Man Review: Tooth-Ripping Indie Horror That SLAYS | Streamin' Demons
    Nov 22 2025

    Jo (in actual agony) & Amelie tear into The RIP Man — a £20k indie slasher that punches WAY above its weight. Killer acting, smart writing, gorgeous blue-tinted kills, and one wobbly act three can’t ruin this gem. Way better than most $30M studio sequels! (Looking at you, Black Phone!)

    KEY MOMENTS

    • Opening chaos – Jo watches flat on his back, still yelling about pain and glory
    • “At least my dick doesn’t hurt” – the Jim Breuer dad-ism that broke Amelie
    • The £20k bombshell – we find out the budget and lose our minds
    • Blue-light murder aesthetic – that one kill scene had us both going “that’s BEAUTIFUL”
    • Jo’s big take – “Pound-for-pound this smokes Black Phone 2” hot take
    • Amelie’s reflection – low-budget doesn’t mean low-quality, France TV cult classics prove it
    • WTF moment – the serial killer is somehow hilarious AND terrifying

  • Ritual House 2025 Breakdown: Bad Acting, Pizza Fights & Chaos | Streamin' Demons
    Nov 15 2025

    Ritual House 2025 gets the Streamin’ Demons treatment as Jo and Amelie unleash a wild rant! As our hero Jo battles a Tony Horton diet—Golden Child style--Amelie chows a 32-centimeter pizza, gyros, and Coke right in front!

    The movie follows two friends turning a debt-ridden inherited house into a haunted bed-and-breakfast. The premise? Solid—40-something women tackling loss and finance. The acting? A disaster! Jo dubs it “third-grade play” territory, while Amelie finds it hilariously offbeat. Crystal’s stalker subplot with Bob confuses—creepy or comic? Jo sees an incel vibe, Amelie a quirky twist.

    The chaos peaks with a plushie “dead cat” sporting a price tag, fake eyelashes in the shower, and death scenes sounding like diarrhea—pure unintentional laughs! Jo’s hunger fueled rants on pacing and repeated flashbacks, while Amelie dreams of her own B&B, mirroring the plot. They clash: Jo rejects it, slamming IMDb’s typos and “award of recognition” hype, while Amelie values the story’s heart. This episode’s a shoutfest of diet drama, horror flops, and personal takes—Jo teases Amelie’s feast, both mock tropes like a Ring-style TV creature. Check it out at https://linktr.ee/Emptyhell!

    KEY MOMENTS
    • Opening chaos – Jo rants about IMDb typos and his Tony Horton diet struggle while Amelie eats pizza.
    • Main plot or twist – Two friends turn a haunted house into a bed-and-breakfast, but the acting flops hard.
    • Character study – Jo and Amelie debate the confusing stalker scene and Bob’s creepy charm.
    • Jo’s big take – Jo calls out the film’s “third-grade play” vibe, craving a better horror twist.
    • Amelie’s reflection – Amelie loves the real-life debt-to-B&B idea but mourns the lost tension.
    • WTF moment – A plushie “dead cat” and fake eyelashes in the shower steal the show!

    Nov 9 2025

    Jo and Amelie jack into Tron: Ares and don’t hold back. From childhood arcade dreams and 3D IMAX flashbacks to Jared Leto’s controversial casting, they dissect the sequel’s glowing grid of tech nostalgia, coding culture, and emotional AI twists. Amelie shares how learning programming made the movie hit differently, and Jo gets real about why Tron was his first spark into geekdom. Whether you’re here for Evan Peters, Gillian Anderson’s surprise gravitas, or to argue about what “woke” even means anymore—this ep’s got you.

    Watch the lightcycles blaze, the emotions glitch, and the popcorn get silenced in the sound mix. Plus, why Tron: Ares might be the most misunderstood blockbuster of the year.
