We’re continuing the theme of “rebirth” on the podcast as we revisiting one of the more maligned films in the X-Men cinematic. X-Men Origins: Wolverine was supposed to set up a new branch of films exploring…well, the origins of the X-Men. But this one was panned by both critics and audiences, so Fox did a reset and gave us First Class after instead. However, if you haven’t revisited Origins in a while, it may be time to do so because this one is probably better than you remember (minus that entire third act.) So settle in to a nice adamantium bath and light up a cigar as we tear into the film, plus discuss such topics as the chokehold the Black Eyed Peas had on America in the aughts, how the X-Men could have prevented 9/11, the now decanonized Punch Dimension, and so much more with returning guest and X-Men “lover” John Houzer.

X-Men Origins: Wolverine stars Hugh Jackman, Ryan Reynolds, Liev Schreiber, Danny Huston, Lynn Collins, and will.i.am. Directed by Gavin Hood.

Easter is next week which makes it the perfect time to discuss the time one of the members of the Mount Rushmore of slashers was reborn – kind of. We’re of course talking about 2002’s Halloween: Resurrection. If you haven’t seen it in a while, it may be time to revisit it so you can adjust your rankings of the Halloween films accordingly because this has to be the worst of the bunch. Half-baked characters and awful cinematography doesn’t even begin to scratch the surface of this dreadful movie. That being said, our episode is way more enjoyable than whatever it is Busta Rhymes and Tyra Banks are producing (which isn’t saying much, but, you get it.) Tune in as we discuss how Loomis would appeal to Gens Z and Alpha, Tracy Morgan playing Michael Myers, and of course MrBeast hosting season 2 of Dangertainment. All of that and more with returning guest Michael Moss. Trick or treat, motherf----r!

Halloween: Resurrection stars Busta Rhymes, Bianca Kajlich, Thomas Ian Nicholas, Ryan Merriman, Sean Patrick Thomas, Tyra Banks, and Jamie Lee Curtis. Directed by Rick Rosenthal.

Not every A24 horror flick is a slam dunk. Such is the case with Love Lies Bleeding director Rose Glass’s first film Saint Maud. Despite a fantastic lead performance and incredible imagery, the movie spends 80 minutes spinning its wheels before suddenly revealing an explosive ending that almost makes up for the lack of story that came before it - but not quite. So sit back and witness the tale of Saint Maud as we discuss the movie, plus Maud’s Creed-inspired wings, what JT’s initials actually stand for, and of course, Bea Arthur as Maude.

Saint Maud stars Morfydd Clark, Jennifer Ehle, Lily Knight, Lily Frazer, and Turlough Convery. Directed by Rose Glass.
