This episode's film, One Cut Of The Dead, is brought to you by Eddie. A film like no other it begins as a typical B-movie horror flick, before turning into something entirely different.

In this very special episode we finally got together in person to record in Garin's front room. Amongst being excited to see each other we chat about Jim's film pick for the week, Tangled, a Disney fan favourite.

"Ground control to Garin, what's your film pick this week?" Well, he's gone for Moon; an isolated thriller that takes place on, you guessed it, the moon.

We take a trip to India and have our first experience of Bollywood. Expect lots of songs, dancing, exaggerated fight scenes, and us mispronouncing the film title.
Watch Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge

Hold on to your shopping carts, this could be a rough ride. We try and entangle the absolute fever dream of a movie, Foodfight. This surely must've been a money laundering scheme.

Jim introduces us to a Richard Curtis fan favourite, About Time. It's fair to say that not all of us share in Jim's enjoyment of this sentimental and sickly sweet film.

Jim is missing from this weeks episode, so we've gone without him for another Quick Rank! This time chatting about our favourite actors that don't fit the Hollywood mould.

We enjoy some Opera with this 18th century romp of a film, following the life of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. A film Jim has some issues with, to put it lightly.

Hamish brings to us one of the best martial-arts films of recent years this week with The Raid 2. Super stylized and hyper violent, this film can get pretty bat-sh*t at times.

Be afraid, be very afraid as we dive for the first time into the world of David Cronenberg. Eddie's pick for this week is The Fly, a horror that delivers on all the gore and Jeff Goldblum that one could possible want.

Jim gives us our first "chick-flick" as we all watch Legally Blonde, a film not without issues. In fact we struggle to wade through those issues to find something good about this film (hint: there's not much).

We kick off season 2 with an absolute stinker from Garin as we chat about the 1994 version of The Fantastic Four. A film that you've never heard of, and was never supposed to be seen. It had a terrible time during and post production, and we had a terrible time watching it, but it does feel good to be podcasting once more.
Watch The Fantastic Four here.

We're back with a special Christmas episode! This week we introduce Garin to the classic Home Alone and try to get to the bottom of Kevin McCallister, genius or psychopath?

We go continental with Hamish's request to watch La Haine, a gritty exploration of under privileged young men in France. With many references to the treatment of minorities and police brutality this film is as relevant as ever.

So, got to be honest, we didn't have a lot to say about this film. It's okay. We did seem to have a fair bit to say about Disney porn and animal genitalia though, so stick around and give it a listen if that's your bag.

Jim brings us The Ringer, starring Johnny Knoxville as a man trying to fix the Special Olympics. A truly awful idea of a film that actually brings up some interesting discussion about representation of mentally challenged people in cinema.

Garin introduces us to the world of Terry Gilliam and his 1985 dystopian classic, Brazil. Colourful, dramatic and truly mad, this film may be an acquired taste for some as it seems to push almost every part of story telling to the max.

We endured watching Son Of The Mask this week so you don't have to. A total car crash of a film which left as all confused and slightly nauseous.
Watch Son Of The Mask? (I can't find any legal stream to watch this film, probably for the best)

Eddie is pretty shocked after what he thought would be a divisive film turns out to be one of our favourites. We talk all about the gruesome goings on in the phycological horror Midsommar. Also, beware of a few brief political opinions of some of the people in this podcast (it doesn't last long).

We have a look/chat about Silver Linings Playbook, the film that won Jennifer Lawrence her Oscar for best actress. It's not without problems but has plenty of topics on mental health and love for us to get our teeth in to.
