Without stories, the truth is too random. State Like Sleep (2018) is a brooding, sensual film about loss, grief, and answers. We spend a while talking about dinosaurs.

You love Shrek. We love Shrek. Everybody loves Shrek! What happens when 200 people band together to remake Shrek? Magic. That's what happens.

Michael loves LA cop movies. Billy hates them. Insha just... has opinions about LA. Film Runners clash in this gritty eighties thriller.

It's time for an Italian superhero in the form of Argoman the Fantastic Superman (1967). Get ready for 1960s nonsense, sex, and an extremely loose definition of "superhero".

In the mood for a kinky, freaky 80s teen vampire movie with lots of sex? Why not pick one starring Jim Carrey?

It's time for a murder mystery in The Last of Sheila (1973). It's just a story with a couple secrets. Little ones. Nothing too big. Nothing too shocking.

It's Hollywood's Biggest Night! To celebrate the best and biggest films of the last year, Film Runners is watching NONE OF THEM! Instead, we've chosen ALTERNATE picks. 

Insha just launched DIS/MEMBER, so of course she chose a horror for Film Runners! This week, we watch Peeping Tom (1960) and compare it to Psycho, slashers, and debate the romantic qualities of Michael Shannon.
