THE visionary zombie franchise 28 Years Later ROARS BACK with the BONE TEMPLE sequel. DOES IT HAVE BITE OR IS IT ALL BARK? The Boyz are joined by special guest Rob Spencer from “Caliber 9 from Outer Space” to discuss the highly anticipated 2026 zombie sequel “28 Years Later: The Bone Temple” directed by Nia DaCosta. This spoiler-free review (no need to skip chapters or exit out before the end) explores the second of the proposed trilogy in the “28 Days…” franchise, featuring powerhouse performances from Ralph Fiennes and Jack O'Connell in a brutal, visceral horror film that balances intense gore with compelling human drama. Does this sequel, written by Alex Garland who wrote “28 Days Later” and “28 Years Later”, elevate the infected zombie genre with thought-provoking themes about society, survival, and humanity or is it just a cash grab sequel that plays more like an apocalyptic soap opera? Watch Skip Plus will let you know if this is a MUST SEE theatrical experience.

THE LAST WATCH SKIP PLUS EPISODE OF SEASON THREE AND OF 2025! DON’T LOOK UNDER THE BED…..THE DUST BUNNY MIGHT EAT YOU!!!!Dave from Raiders of the Podcast joins WillDaBeast and Cupcake for the last episode of 2025 (and Season Three) to review Dust Bunny, the feature directing debut of Bryan Fuller, the creative wunderkind behind Heroes, Pushing Daisies, and Hannibal. Starring Hannibal himself, Mads Mikkelson, Sophie Sloan, David Dastmalchian, and one Sigourney Weaver, this hybrid fairy-tale-actioner plays like “Amelie” meets “Luc Besson’s The Professional” meets "John Wick". Is Fuller’s creative brilliance (one that has seen him leaving many a high profile project) perfect for this kind of film, or like his imagination, is there just too much going on to be fully successful?

FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY’S IS BACK WITH A SEQUEL…BUT IS IT A SNOOZER OR A SMASHER? ALSO…WHO ASKED FOR THIS?!!?!?Mike joins a very glossy lipped Cupcake to review Cupcake’s future husband - Josh Hutcherson’s - new movie - Five Nights at Freddy’s 2, the sequel to the 2023 original, based on the games and stories written by Christian-conservative Trump Supporter Scott Cawthon. With director Emma Tammi and fellow castmembers Elizabeth Lail, Piper Rubio and Matthew Lillard returning along with some new actors (Skeet Ulrich, McKenna Grace, and Teo Briones), the sequel has buzz and anticipation. But ultimately is this second chapter worthy of the hype (and a possible bridge to a threequel?) or will it make anyone unfamiliar with the source material go running screaming in the other direction?GRAB YOUR FLASHLIGHT AND MARIONETTE STRINGS…LET’S HEAR YOU SCREAM FOR THE NEW WATCH SKIP PLUS!TIMESTAMPS00:00 Opening01:43 Intro03:48 Five Nights At Freddy's 2: Below and Above the Line15:04 Spoiler Free Thoughts30:36 FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDY'S 2 SPOILED43:45 Outro- - - - - - - - - -WE ARE WATCH SKIP PLUS!

A24’s ETERNITY: CHOOSING BETWEEN MILES TELLER OR CALLUM TURNER SEEMS LIKE A HARD DILEMMA BUT DOES THIS HIGH CONCEPT ROM-COM DELIVER? #alliterationA24 is known for its intense dramas and horror films. The Watch/Skip’ers take on A24’s latest: Eternity, a rare COMEDY about a love triangle…..in the afterlife. The high-concept rom-com comes straight from Irish indie filmmaker David Freyne and has a cast including super hotties Elisabeth Olsen, Miles Teller, Callum Turner, and Da’Vine Joy Randolph. While the concept feels like a riff on “Defending Your Life” meets "Beetlejuice" with a healthy dose of Prime’s “Upload”, is this overly cute and charming fantasy a winner replete with deep messages about love and choices and the road not taken or does it deserve to be sent to its own eternity of failed romance flicks not worthy of a first date?

WICKED returns with the roar of a tornado…BUT IS IT “FOR GOOD”? Surprisingly, WillDaBeast loves musicals as much as Cupcake does and so it goes…Part 2 of the Broadway musical Wicked is back! Filmed all at the same time but split into two parts and separated by one year, the Jon M. Chu directed Act Two, still starring Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, and Jonathon Bailey, rolls out a yellow brick road back to the continuing story of Glinda and Elphaba. But gone are the sunny, sing-songy, Mean Girls shenanigans replaced by a darker and more urgent tone with a spotlight on the Wizard (Jeff Goldblum) and the enchantingly evil Madame Morrible (Michelle Yeoh). Will audiences take to this and click their heels in joy or will they wish a house was dropped on the at-times juvenile and rushed second act? Will anyone care how this story threads its connections to the beloved “Wizard of Oz”?

Second verse….just like the first! BAM! … Another Double Movie Review! The Boyz loved the last double feature movie review so they decided to do it ALL OVER AGAIN! First up, kinetic visualist @edgarwright brings us the second adaption of “The Running Man”. Written by Stephen King (under a pseudonym of Richard Bachman) and famously adapted in 1987 to the screen starring one Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cupcake and WillDaBeast answer the question on everyone’s mind: Not “Is Glen Powell STILL a thing?” but “Is this true-to-story adaptation better than AH’nuld’s”? Next: The director of the smashing successful Neon releases “LongLegs” and “The Monkey” returns with the folk horror chamberpiece (Editor’s note: Can we ban this term from the show? Dislike!). Standout actors Tatiana Maslany and Rossif Sutherland act in a slow-burn horror Grimm Fairy Tale-esque thriller. But are all the “WTF”s and mystery imagery shenanigans worth the punchline? Maaayyyybe….Oz and Neon need a time out. WS+....It’s us with a double feature. GET INTO IT!

PREPARE YOURSELVES: the first ever double review episode is upon YOU!!!! In what can only be described as a historic “creature double feature”, the verbose Watch/Skip Plus guys take on TWO movies in one episode - stripped down, no pluses, quick intro’s, full on movie review glory! First up, yet another reinvention for the Predator franchise, Predator Badlands crash lands in theatres. Dan Trachtenberg (director of the last two Predator films - Prey and the animated Hulu exclusive Predators:Killer of Killers) gambles that audiences will take to a Predator film from the vantage point of the Predator itself. Did this perspective shift/PG-13 CGI fest work or should it be trophy killed as prey? Next up, Pod-Father Sam U. Rai from the Gentleman’s Guide to Midnite Cinema sneaks in and the three take on the much anticipated Frankenstein, a little streamer exclusive on Netflix from wonderkind, monster-lover Guillermo Del Toro. After all the adaptations of Mary Shelley’s thought-provoking novel, did Del Toro build us a better masterpiece or are his creative excesses (brilliant and visually appealing as they are) taking the sheen off his usual visionary style?

FROM YOUTUBE TO INDIE FILMMAKER…SHELBY OAKS IS HERE, BUT DOES IT HERALD A POTENTIAL NEW FILMIC VOICE OR WERE MISTAKES MADE?!?!?!Stop me if you’ve heard this one: An ex-Jehovah’s Witness, pansexual, YouTube movie reviewer/influencer decides to make a movie…. And so it is with Shelby Oaks, the debut feature of one Chris Stuckmann. Kickstarter’d, delayed, reshot, remixed, edited, EP’d and shepherded to the screen by rising superstar horror director Mike Flanagan and a host of other contemporary horror creators, is Shelby Oaks THE horror debut from a YouTube content creator worthy of all those hyperbolic quotes on the poster? (Editor’s Note: The Phillipous and Talk to Me just said, “HOLD MY BEER”.) Or does this have “rookie filmmaker missteps” ALL over it? Team Web (Cupcake) and Team Sundance (WillDaBeast) have thoughts…lots of them…and you may be surprised who is the MOST critical. (Editor’s Note: Cupcake always takes a shit on one major thing every movie.) DISCOVER THE SECRET OF SHELBY OAKS WITH WATCH SKIP PLUS!As Spooky Season comes to a close, Jose plus’s a local Maryland behemoth Haunted House installation “Legends of the Fog” and the “Dismember The Alamo” horror film marathon. Mike gets in the Deathstalker remake director’s followup to the popular Psycho Goreman “Frankie Freako” and the last of the retro “Scream-ings”: The Corpse Bride and ParaNorman, both issues as anniversary screenings.

SCREEN THAT CALL FROM BEYOND…THE GRABBER IS BACK IN BLACK PHONE 2!Blumhouse pictures looks to break its poo-poo streak (Exorcist:Believer, The Wolf Man, M3G4N 2.0, The Woman in the Yard, Drop) with Black Phone 2, the sequel to the wildly successful first film. Based on a short story by Stephen King’s son Joe Hill, the sequel is directed by genre friendly director-writer Scott Derrickson who also helmed the Sinister films and Doctor Strange. Starring returning actors Mason Thames (who is on a hot streak as the current IT actor), Madeleine McGraw, Miguel Mora, and Ethan Hawke, is this sequel a worthy expansion of the Grabber storyline/universe or is it just silly “bigger, bolder, better but more of the same”? ACCEPT THE CALL AND MASK UP FOR THE NEW WATCH SKIP PLUS!!!!October is still “Spooky Season”, and Mike has capsule reviews of horror films - John Carpenter’s Prince of Darkness, VHS Halloween, I See You, and spotlights director Brandon Christensen whose Shudder exclusives have become WillDaBeast must see’s.

IS THE THIRD TIME THE CHARM FOR A BELOVED FRANCHISE WHOSE FIRST FILM BOMBED AND WHOSE SEQUEL WAS ONLY A MODERATE BOX OFFICE SUCCESS?!??Fun Fact: the original 1982 Tron is one of Cupcake’s favorite nostalgic cornerstone films. This week he forces WillDaBeast to watch the third film in the franchise: Tron: Ares. Directed by one of the co-directors of the last Pirates of the Caribbean movie and starring up and coming performers Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith and Evan Peters, veteran actors Jeff Bridges and Gillian Anderson, and starring the nearly-cancelled, gorgeous but maybe difficult to work worth and satisfy, questionable celebrity Jared Leto, Tron: Ares dazzles with sizzling CGI effects and a banging Nine Inch Nails score. For a franchise that has only offered three films in FORTY THREE YEARS (!), will this sequel revive the “was it ever there” franchise or is it time for Tron to hit the “Recycle Bin” for good? RECTIFY THE NEW WATCH SKIP PLUS OR FACE THE GAME GRID!!!!October is “Spooky Season”, and Mike has capsule reviews of horror films: some retro-screenings and a few new streamers.

Check. Trailer that makes it look like a sexed-up “You’re Next”? Check. Gorgeous, drool-worthy leads? Check. Excellent script and execution…..Uhhhhhhhhhhh WilDaBeast and Cupcake welcome back Tyler from Raiders of the Podcast to give you the skinny (or rather….the girth, maybe?) on the erotic thriller “Bone Lake”. Directed by a woman who also shot a short entitled “Come F*ck My Robot” and written by a screenwriter with only two little seen films as credits, the charged up posters and marketing hint at a bloody sex fest with ex’s and axes. Starring Maddie Hasson, Marco Piggosi, Alex Roe, and Andra Nechitta, this thriller has two couples showing up at the same AirBnB where a weekend turns into psychosexual gamesmanship replete with sexing, stabbing, and sawing. But can does it deliver the goods?

PEELE PRODUCER LABEL NOSEDIVES WITH HIM - STULTIFYING MISFIRE!Jordan Peele, the innovative and stunning director of Get Out and Nope, lends his (producer) name to HIM, a new horror film about a young football quarterback facing an aging rival for the top spot on a pro team. Directed by Justin Tipping and starring Marlon Wayans and Tyriq Withers, the trailers sold this as a seemingly brutal, gory “The Substance meets the NFL”. Sadly, the Boyz, from the opening moments of the episode just can’t hide their…..….utter disdain for this film. Period. How could such promise be squandered in spectacular fashion?

HEAVY STEPHEN KING NOVEL HITS THE SCREEN…BUT DOES IT HAVE LEGS?A 1979 Stephen King novel got a big screen adaptation, and Watch Skip Plus gives you its singular critique and analysis in a brand new episode. WillDaBeast and Cupcake take on the Francis Lawrence directed - JT Mollner written book to screen thriller with a simple premise: Young men compete in a “long walk” where the last man standing wins a wish and untold millions. The catch? Keep walking or die. Starring a crop of mega-talented new faces such as Cooper Hoffman, David Jonsson, and Charlie Plummer and supported by veteran actors like Skywalker himself Mark Hammil and Judy Greer, will audiences take to this polarizing, feel-bad allegory about the power of the human spirit and its all too instinctual trappings or will the week’s events leading up to the film’s release (an assasination and a school shooting in ONE day; King himself nearly getting cancelled over a tweet) take out the film’s kneecaps at the box office? PINCH ONE OFF AND WALK ON UP TO WATCH SKIP PLUS!For Plusses, the Boyz each review new streaming films to enjoy in the sanctity of your homes: Mike caught “Friendship” starring Tim Robinson and Paul Rudd while Cupcake threw $10 at a VOD indie rental: “She Rides Shotgun” starring Taron Edgerton and featuring a powerhouse performance from young Ana Sophia Heger.

Episode 138: The Conjuring: Last RitesTHE POWER OF A NEW WATCH SKIP PLUS EP COMPELS YOU!Cupcake experienced some major tech difficulties as he “Resolve”-d to master a new editing software, but the WS+ boyz are back! This time taking on the fourth Conjuring film, itself the 9th movie in the “Conjuring” universe (the “CU”). Directed by CU mainstay director Michael Chaves with returning leads Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, pic fashions the famed demonologists (or hoax-artists?) Ed and Lorraine Warren as spiritual warrior-superheroes as they wage war on a demon that has a link to both the Warrens and a Pittsburgh family. With diminishing returns in the franchise, is this new Conjuring a return to form of the fun-house thrills of Conjuring 1 and 2 or does this series of films need to head towards the light and live on in our memories? GET IN THE SPIRIT WITH WS+!For Pluses, Mike regales us of his family’s VEGAS VACATION! Discover the places and shows he visited with helpful tips for discounted shenanigans. Meanwhile: Jose does the double plus: listen to him rave about YET ANOTHER set of Shokz open ear bone conduction headphones AND the purportedly 30 year-lasting, sustainable, hemp-bamboo t-shirt from Undrdog.

COME ASHORE FOR THE NEW WATCH SKIP PLUS!Cupcake all but ordered WillDaBeast to see the new Ron Howard film solely because advanced word had Jude Law doing a “one for the history books” full frontal nude scene. And so it is: this week the Boyz review Ron Howard’s historically based, “Survivor”-esque 1930’s period drama “Eden” starring Law, Vanessa Kirby, Daniel Bruehl (BARON ZEMO!), current controversial it-girl Sydney Sweeney, and Ana De Armas. Aside from the obvious visual DELIGHTS (warning: lots of breasts, penis, butt, and pregnancy talk/jokes), is this a return to prestige engrossing filmmaking from Howard or is “Eden” setting itself up to run afoul of potential multiple Razzie nominations (yes, at least one host thinks this is absolute dreck)? FIND PARADISE WITH OUR NEW EPISODE!Stick around for the PLUS: Mike reviews “Night of the Zoopocalypse”, an animated film based on a short story by….wait for it…..CLIVE BARKER (think “Zootopia” meets Alien meets “Paranorman”); Jose takes on the new horror comedy “Clown in a Cornfield” from the director of “Tucker & Dale vs. Evil”.

Cupcake’s favorite action filmmakers 87North (David Leitch and Kelly McCormack’s production company) return with “Nobody 2” starring Bob Odenkirk, Connie Nielson, Sharon Stone, RZA, John Ortiz, Christopher Lloyd, and Daniel Bernhardt. 87North might be having the same kind of year as BlumHouse with lackluster audience reception to previous releases Love Hurts and Ballerina. Will this action comedy sequel directed by Indo-Asian action filmmaker Timo Tjahjanto in his US debut break the bad streak? And what will WillDaBeast and Cupcake think about this second go around with Hutch and his family vacation ruined by a run-in with a female girl-boss gangster? You’ll be surprised who gives this one a “skip” (!)Meanwhile: Mike pluses his live concert experience with LCD Soundsystem (guess what? DAFT PUNK IS PLAYING AT MY HOUSE!!!) while Jose sings the praises of a previous underrated, unsung, gonzo Netflix original - 87North production: “Kate” starring Mary Elisabeth Winstead and Woody Harrelson (thinks “D.O.A.” meets “Atomic Blonde”).
