Raised By Video

Welcome to Raised by Video, a podcast about movies hosted by four brothers who will stop at nothing to make each other laugh. We are Andrew, Daniel, Matthew, and Stewart Doggett. Like many of you, we were raised by video to such an extent that our personalities are 90% movie quotes, 10% movie-related internet memes, and 8% poor math skills. We pick two movies a week to discuss, but the main goal of every episode is to make each other pee our pants from laughter. And we succeed so often we all wear

34 - Crimes of the Future

Raised By Video ·

2025/08/26

What happens when David Cronenberg and Viggo Mortensen reunite for a body horror movie about organ-removal performance art?Unfortunately, not much. As huge fans of A History of Violence and Eastern Promises, we were excited to see Mortensen and Cronenberg together again, but our excitement didn’t last through the slow and muddled mess that is Crimes of the Future.Luckily, we make performance art out of tumorous growths in this episode by joking about Jordan Peterson, Rick and Morty, and our

33 - Heretic (TEASER)

Raised By Video ·

2025/08/21

In this teaser clip, we’re down one brother but up a whole lot of laughs as we discuss Heretic. This intimately claustrophobic horror film ramps up the tension in creative ways. Hugh Grant propels the plot by being sinister, hilarious, and somehow still very likable. The two leads also kill it (literally).In between jokes, we ask the big questions: What does the ending mean? What does the butterfly represent? And most importantly, how did Topher Grace sneak into this movie?Tune in now for a deep

32 - Flight Risk

2025/08/18

“Wait, this movie was directed by Mel Gibson?”The un-canceled Hollywood titan who brought us Braveheart and Apocalypto is back with what can generously be described as a movie. Even a bald Mark Wahlberg portraying the unhinged villain doesn’t provide enough entertainment value to save this plane-wreck. The concept — three people on a small plane in conflict with each other — is solid. But the execution is laughable. Which is good for us, because we have a blast discussing this one. While the

31 - Kraven the Hunter (TEASER)

Raised By Video ·

2025/08/14

It’s Kraven time! In this teaser, we delve into Sony’s Spider-Man villain-verse with what is hopefully the last film of its kind — Kraven the Hunter. As big fans of the Spider-Man comic books and 90s TV show, we feel especially capable of tearing this film apart in all its CG-vomit glory. From the strange dialogue and awkward acting, to the silly action sequences and the janky visual effects, the Doggett brothers have a fun time dissecting this movie. Making movies is hard, and Kraven is a prime

30 - Anora

Raised By Video ·

2025/08/11

Five Oscars, one stripper, and three Doggett brothers with zero self-control (and Daniel). Anora, the 2024 Oscar darling about a stripper who marries an oligarch’s son, is a film like no other. It shifts seamlessly from drama to comedy, features standout performances, and subverts expectations in ways that make for a hilarious and touching storyline. (Plus, we’ve all proposed to a stripper at one time or another, so this one just hits different.) In between serious discussion of storytelling,

29 - Black Mirror: USS Callister and Into Infinity...

2025/08/07

Set phasers to pants-pissing hilarity. In this week’s teaser, we’re boldly going where this podcast has never gone before — into the Black Mirror.For the first time ever, we’re reviewing episodes, not movies, with a double-feature dive into Black Mirror’s USS Callister and its sequel Into Infinity. Both are love letters (and roast sessions) to Star Trek, and since all four of us grew up on the original and The Next Generation, we couldn’t pass this one up.We get in touch with our inner Trekkies,

2025/08/04

Take off your shoes, remove your belt, and prepare to be violated by the TSA. In this week’s free episode, we review Carry-On, an airport-based thriller with all those things we like to see in these kinds of movies: tension, twists, and Jason Bateman. This Die Hard clone gets mixed reviews from the Doggett brothers, but we all agree that a crying baby on an airplane is enough to drive anyone to terrorism. During our review, we wonder why the two protagonists have no chemistry, discuss plot holes,

27 - The Electric State (TEASER)

Raised By Video ·

2025/07/31

We watched Netflix set fire to $320 million so you don’t have to.The Electric State, a Russo brothers alternate-history sci-fi, is one of the most expensive films ever made. Unfortunately, it has little to show for it aside from a few good performances and some well-crafted CGI. As far as plot, story, and character development goes, we all agree — and so does most of the internet — this is a steaming pile of …In this Patron-only teaser, we discuss what does and doesn’t work (and why), confuse

26 - The Kitchen (2023)

2025/07/28

This week’s free episode features all the insanity you’ve come to expect from the Doggett brothers. While reviewing a Netflix original near-future sci-fi film set in Britain, we strike an impossible balance between ridiculous tangents and genuine film discussion (or so we hope, anyway). There are Alex Jones impressions, deliberation about what the Brits mean when they say “Takin’ a piss,” and a deep dive into why this movie starts out strong but drags as it inches toward its climax.Plus, you’ll

25 - Do The Right Thing (TEASER)

Raised By Video ·

2025/07/24

In this week’s Patron-only teaser, we ask ourselves, “Did Mookie do the right thing?”Spike Lee’s powerful 1989 film has us grappling with big issues and cracking jokes to keep things light — because we’re incapable of being serious for more than five minutes at a time. Not only is this movie an exploration of racism, police brutality, and rebellion, it’s also packed full of amazing actors who deliver stellar performances. As per usual on this podcast, things get weird. We break into song, reference

24 - Winnie-the-Pooh: Blood and Honey 2

2025/07/21

It’s Pooh Time! Everyone’s (least) favorite killer bear is back, and this time the body count is rising. In this week’s sh*tshow, the Doggett brothers dissect a movie so ridiculous and baffling that the phrase “What the hell was that about?” comes up multiple times. This sequel improves on its predecessor, but not enough to be taken seriously, even as a tongue-in-cheek slash-fest. From characters showering with earbuds in and seven-minute exposition dumps, to poorly loaded dishwashers and the

23 - Judas and the Black Messiah (TEASER)

Raised By Video ·

2025/07/17

In this teaser, the Doggett brothers do the impossible. We make the assassination of Civil Rights proponent and Black Panther leader Fred Hampton funny. Okay, maybe not funny exactly, but at least not insanely depressing. How do we do it? By pretending this movie is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, seeing how many Jesse Plemons references we can make, and raging against the machine. All in a day’s work on Raised By Video.We also delve into the politics of the 1960s, how shady the FBI was

What happens when a simple but effective low-budget film outsmarts most major studio releases? You get Strange Darling.On this week’s free episode, we take a look at JT Mollner’s 2023 cat-and-mouse thriller (with a twist). Starring Kyle Gallner and featuring first-time cinematographer Giovanni Ribisi (yes, that one), this told-out-of-sequence film provokes equal parts jokes and genuine film discussion. The fact that it’s actually shot on film allows us to nerd out for a bit, which is always fun.We

2025/07/10

Praise the Lord for this Raised By Video teaser! This week, the Doggett brothers find religion while reviewing Jeymes Samuel’s The Book of Clarence. This unique take on a story that has been told for thousands of years features plenty of highs and a few lows. But one thing that all the brothers can agree on is that the performances in this movie are (mostly) fantastic. We’re nothing if not blasphemers, so there’s no shortage of jokes in this episode. We banter about why crossing the streams is never

A guy fights beavers for an hour and forty-five minutes—and it’s utterly amazing.This week on the free feed, the Doggett brothers dive headfirst into the absurd, brilliant chaos that is Hundreds of Beavers. It’s as if Buster Keaton got together with Adult Swim and a video game developer — and they all dropped acid to come up with this idea. This low-budget, high-chaos, modern cult masterpiece gets high marks from all four Doggett brothers. It also provides plenty of fuel for jokes and bits, which

2025/07/03

We’ve all been there before. You get invited to a billionaire’s private island, have a few drinks, a few laughs, but then things start getting weird … and not in a good way. If you haven’t experienced this, then count yourself lucky. It’s the subject of this Patron-only episode in which we review Blink Twice, a 2024 thriller that is (mostly) masterfully done and a lot of fun. We’re happy to see Christian Slater and Geena Davis in this one, performing their faces off, but there’s plenty more to like

2025/06/30

What do an acid bath, too much CGI, and an awkward dance number have in common? They’re all a part of our average weekend. Oh, wait, no — they’re all in the third (and hopefully last) Venom movie. In this Raised By Video episode, we heroically endure the final installment of the trilogy nobody asked for. While there are a few laughs to be had and some fun action sequences, overall this movie is about as messy as the rest of the Spider-Man villain-verse. While it doesn’t sink to Madame Web or Morbius

2025/06/26

Buckle up for a hilarious horror movie review sample as the Doggett brothers dissect Chris Nash's ambitious indie horror experiment, In a Violent Nature. This 2024 slasher tries to breathe new life into a genre that's been stabbed more times than a camp counselor, but the brothers are split on whether it actually pulls it off.Between the genuinely inventive kills and impressive cinematography, there's plenty to admire—until you factor in the cringey dialogue and stilted performances by most of the

2025/06/23

This week, the Doggett brothers tackle Warren Beatty's ludicrous Dick Tracy, where Hollywood legends get deliciously weird in ways you've never seen before. This 1990 comic adaptation is a masterclass in makeup artistry and prosthetics that transforms an all-star cast into grotesque works of art.The film's relentless pace never lets up, creating a frenetic energy that captures the spirit of its source material. We're glued to our seats throughout this colorful nightmare, and not just because of

2025/06/19

In this teaser, Matt finds himself outnumbered three-to-one as Drew, Dan, and Stew gang up on him for daring to have the audacity of being right about Smile 2. While Matt remains the superior Doggett brother (and definitely NOT the one crafting these descriptions), the family drama makes for prime entertainment. Despite (or because of) the brotherly feud playing out in this episode, we have an excellent time reviewing this horror flick. The opening sequence alone is worth the price of admission, but
