Ep 45: IMDb Top 250: "Leon: The Professional" (1994) & "The Sixth Sense" (1999)

This week, we are diving into the IMDb Top 250 list with a movie we both loved—M Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense—and one that we both despised—Leon: The Professional by Luc Besson. We both watched the extended/director's cut of Leon, and had a very hard time separating the gross love plot in the movie from the cool action. Luckily, M. Night's iconic psychological thriller had plenty for us to enjoy and talk about. What's your take on the differences between the Top 250/500 lists between Letterboxd and IMDb?

Ep 44.5: Backrooms (2026) — The Rise of Gen Z Horror

Would you enter the Backrooms? We take this episode as an opportunity to break down the new Kane Parsons movie "Backrooms" that has had an explosive release! The liminal horror has so many different avenues (paths?) that you could go down (get lost in?) trying to analyze what it all means. But regardless, we found the movie to be a blast and encourage folks to go see it, but since it is new, we have a spoiler-free section at the beginning of the episode and we jump full force into the Backrooms themselves in the second half of the episode.

Ep 44: Christopher Nolan: "Interstellar" (2014) & "Memento" (2000)

This week, we've got Christopher Nolan movies on the docket! Lauded as one of the most prestigious directors working today, Nolan has made some incredible movies during the 21st century—from the non-linear noir crime thriller, Memento, to the scientist biopic Oppenheimer. When tasked with each picking a movie from his filmography, Ryan picked the starfaring epic, Interstellar from 2014, and Shane picked the formerly mentioned Memento from 2000.

Ep 43.5: Obsession (2026) — Why We Disagree

This one has us at odds! Why Ryan may think that Curry Barker's new feature is the scariest thing since "Hereditary," Shane isn't so found of it. Since it's brand new, we have a spoiler-free section at the begining and jump into spoilers once we can't talk about some of the insanity any longer! Whose side are you on?

Ep 43: Cult Classics: "Lake Mungo" & "Akira"

This week, we are exploring cult classics! With such a broad pool of movies to pick from, Ryan and Shane both pulled some of their own personal interests into these selections, with Shane's cyberpunk and anime interests coming out with Akira (1988) and Ryan's grief horror and found footage interests coming through with "Lake Mungo" (2008). Each have had a profound impact on their respective genres and are highly acclaimed by their cult followings. What's your favorite cult classic movie?
