Nathan and Ryan piece together Jigsaw (2017), the attempt to revive the Saw franchise with a slicker look, a new timeline trick, and a fresh batch of morally questionable victims.

The hosts break down the film’s camp appeal, questionable stereotypes, and why Harum Scarum often lands on “worst Elvis movie” lists—while still being weirdly fascinating as

The hosts discuss the movie’s odd-but-compelling cultural mashup, Assante’s intense performance, and why this forgotten Western deserves a second look from fans of genre hybrids and ’90s TV

Nathan and Ryan lock in to Wedlock (1991), a gritty sci-fi action thriller where prison reform means strapping explosive collars to inmates and pairing them off in deadly “marriages.” Starring Rutger Hauer, Mimi Rogers, and Joan Chen, the film blends cyberpunk aesthetics, high-concept dystopian ideas, and early-’90s action cheese. The hosts break down the movie’s wild premise, its surprisingly prescient tech paranoia, and whether Wedlock works better as science fiction or as a pulpy B-movie

2026/01/13

Nathan and Ryan take a grim turn with Dahmer (2002), the unsettling true-crime drama starring Jeremy Renner as infamous serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer. Instead of leaning into exploitation, the film opts for a cold, restrained approach, focusing on isolation, routine, and the quiet horror of unchecked violence. The hosts discuss Renner’s chilling performance, the film’s muted tone, and whether Dahmer succeeds as a character study rather than a traditional serial killer thriller. It’s an uncomfortable
