Movie Torture

Unlawful Entry (1992)

A routine home invasion turns into a full-blown nightmare when Kurt Russell's family crosses paths with the most clingy cop in movie history. After a robbery leaves him feeling vulnerable, Michael Carr welcomes help from Officer Pete Davis, a charismatic police officer who seems determined to protect his family. Unfortunately, Pete's definition of "helping" includes showing up uninvited, sabotaging marriages, planting evidence, committing murder, and generally behaving like a restraining order come to life. Brad breaks down Unlawful Entry (1992), a tense psychological thriller featuring Kurt Russell, Madeline Stowe, and an absolutely unhinged Ray Liotta performance. Along the way, he wonders whether friendship should ever involve alley beatings, compares Pete Davis to a customer-service wolf, imagines conversations no sane person would ever have, and explains why this movie remains so effective decades later. It's creepy, frustrating, surprisingly realistic, and proof that sometimes the scariest villain isn't the burglar who breaks into your house—it's the cop who won't leave afterward.

Obsession (2026)

In this absolutely unhinged episode of Movie Torture, Brad Lowe breaks down the horror-thriller Obsession—a movie that starts as awkward crush energy and somehow spirals into cursed romance, dead cat sandwiches, demon-girlfriend behavior, and supernatural emotional damage. Brad hilariously walks through the story of Bear Bailey, a painfully awkward guy who uses a creepy magical item called the “One Wish Willow” to make his crush Nikki fall in love with him… which immediately turns into the worst relationship in cinematic history. What follows is escalating chaos involving haunted Build-A-Bear vibes, pee puddles, self-stabbing party games, customer service for cursed objects, and one of the most disturbing lunch scenes ever put on screen. Throughout the episode, Brad delivers nonstop commentary and savage one-liners, comparing Bear to “the human version of typing and deleting a text for 45 minutes” while repeatedly questioning why horror movie characters keep buying obviously evil magical items. The recap somehow balances gross-out horror, emotional loneliness, absurd comedy, and relationship satire all at once. By the end, the episode becomes less about a horror movie and more about obsession, loneliness, and what happens when someone tries to force love instead of letting it happen naturally. Brad closes things out by warning listeners to avoid cursed romance driftwood, haunted relationships, and—most importantly—dead cat sandwiches.

Ready of Not 2: Here I Come (2026)

Brad breaks down a chaotic, over-the-top sequel where survivor Grace (Samara Weaving) goes from final girl to public enemy #1. After escaping the deadly game in the first movie, she’s immediately pulled back into an even bigger nightmare—this time facing a full council of elite, twisted families all competing to kill her for power. Teamed up (and handcuffed) with newcomer Faith (Katherine Newton), Grace is thrown into a brutal, rule-heavy death game that feels like rich people Hunger Games with zero logic and maximum insanity. Each family hunts differently, creating total chaos—like a group chat where no one agrees but everyone wants you dead. The movie escalates with wild kills, bizarre rules (break them and you literally explode), and a ridiculous “marriage loophole” where Grace can survive by marrying into one of the families. Instead, she fakes compliance and turns the tables—ending the entire system with nothing more than a pen. In the end, alliances collapse, the elites destroy themselves, and Grace doesn’t just survive—she wipes out the whole corrupt structure. Brad calls it bigger, crazier, and somehow better than the original, leaning fully into its madness.

Just Like Heaven (2005)

Brad revisits Just Like Heaven and breaks down a rom-com that asks one simple question: what if your roommate is a ghost… and also kind of the boss of you? The movie follows David (Mark Ruffalo), a sad, grieving guy just trying to reset his life, who moves into a new apartment—only to find Elizabeth (Reese Witherspoon), a high-strung doctor, already “living” there… despite possibly not being alive. What starts as a bizarre roommate dispute quickly turns into a strange partnership as David realizes he’s the only one who can see her. Instead of doing the logical thing (leaving immediately), David sticks around—mostly because, as Brad points out, “she’s Reese Witherspoon.” The two go from arguing like a dysfunctional married couple to teaming up on a mission to uncover what happened to Elizabeth before it’s too late. Brad leans into the absurdity—calling out the wild decision-making (like casually living with a ghost), the awkward public conversations that make David look insane, and the ridiculous dynamic of being bossed around by someone who technically isn’t even on the lease. But underneath the chaos, he admits the movie has some charm, blending humor, emotion, and an unexpected love story. In the end, the mystery gets solved, Elizabeth comes back to life, and the film lands on its core message about connection—even if the journey there is weird.

The Rip (2026)

Brad kicks it off with, “I watched a movie…” and this one goes off the rails fast. A group of guys is living it up, celebrating, acting like family — and then a duffel bag full of cash drops into the middle of everything. That’s it. That’s the moment. The vibe is gone instantly. In this episode of Movie Torture, Brad breaks down how quickly things flip: * Friends turn into suspects * Conversations get awkward fast * Everyone starts thinking two steps ahead… or at least they think they are * And nobody trusts anybody Brad leans into the real tension of the movie — it’s not about stealing money, it’s about what happens after the money shows up. The paranoia, the quiet scheming, the side-eye moments where you realize the group isn’t a group anymore. He walks through the cast dynamics in his signature style: * Ben Affleck trying to hold the chaos together * Matt Damon making you question every move he makes * Alicia Vikander being the only one saying what everyone should be thinking Along the way, Brad goes on classic tangents about: * Why a duffel bag of money instantly destroys friendships * How everyone thinks they’re the smartest person in the room * And why situations like this never end the way people think they will The episode builds as Brad unpacks how small decisions turn into big problems, and how fast things spiral once trust is gone. By the time everything plays out, you’re left asking one question: Was it ever about the money… or was it always about what people were willing to do for it? Tune in for the full breakdown, the tangents, and the moments where Brad calls out exactly what everyone watching is thinking.
