It's Cregger time! Join BP, Coop and Justin as we dissect and analyse everything about the 2026 Resident Evil Reboot starring Austin Abrams.The reboot was written by Shay Hatten and Zach Cregger and directed by Cregger who of course rose to acclaim with Weapons and Barbarian and as you all know my cohosts absolutely loved Weapons and think it's the great horror movie of all time but all jokes aside, there's no doubt Weapons and Barbarian have propelled Zach Cregger to the top of the most in-demand directors in the horror space.If you're unfamiliar with the Resident Evil film series, this new instalment is technically the eighth feature in the series and to take it back to the beginning, it all started with the 2002 original starring Milla Jovavich which led to 5 sequels between 2004 - 2016 including Apocalypse, Extinction, Afterlife, Retribution and The Final Chapter better known as Saw 3D: The Traps Come Alive, just kidding, we all know ‘The Final Chapter' is never ever the final chapter, especially looking at Friday the 13th, SAW, Final Destination etc. but any way after 6 film instalments, the film series was rebooted on Netflix with a much hated 7th film titled Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City and a TV Series which I forgot happened. Following the abysmal failure of Netflix's resident evil film TV series, the 2026 reboot is a stand-alone story that takes elements of the entire Resident Evil game series in an act of fan service that will delight many horror fans but may anger some of the hardcore resident evil fans.Chapters0:00 Cold Open: Journey to Raccoon City General 0:43 Resident Evil (2026) Review & Reboot Overview 1:27 Resident Evil Movies Explained: 2002–2026 2:43 Our History With the Resident Evil Franchise 3:21 Resident Evil Games, Movies & the 2002 Original 6:08 Watching Resident Evil for the First Time 8:13 Box Office Performance & Critical Reception 8:55 60-Second Resident Evil Review Challenge 10:30 Coop's Verdict as a Resident Evil Gamer 12:13 BP's Perspective as a Franchise Newcomer 14:13 Best Scenes, Scares & Austin Abrams' Performance 17:23 Video Game Easter Eggs, Monsters & Dark Comedy 19:18 Padlocks, Health Items & Classic Gameplay References 22:27 The Protagonist's Fate & Alternate Endings 25:15 Snow Horror, Cinematography & Zack Cregger's Direction 29:56 How the Practical Effects and Running Scene Were Filmed 30:55 What Didn't Work: CGI, Logic & the Abrupt Ending 34:49 First-Person Camera Shots and Scientist Plot Holes 38:30 Cringeworthy Dialogue, Padlocks & Video Game Storytelling 41:26 Why the Ending and Credits Music Fell Flat 44:48 Rapid-Fire Resident Evil Questions Inspired by Tyra Banks45:00 Milla Jovovich vs Austin Abrams as Protagonist 46:04 Should Resident Evil (2026) Get a Sequel? 48:15 Would a Resident Evil Prequel Work? 48:59 Is the Movie Only for Resident Evil Fans? 50:54 Should Milla Jovovich Have Made a Cameo? 52:11 Could a Medieval Resident Evil Movie Work? 52:46 The Movie's Biggest Weaknesses 54:21 Resident Evil vs Riverdale: The Conspiracy Begins 54:47 Every Resident Evil and Riverdale Connection 57:20 The Hosts React to the Riverdale Comparisons 58:55 How the Riverdale Segment Was Created 1:00:47 Final Ratings and Review Scores 1:04:10 Final Verdict and Outro #residentevil #zachcregger #austinabrams #horror #movie #horrorfilm #splatter #deathscene #scarymovie #completeguidetohorror #horrormovie #scary #creepy #graphic #deepdive #paranormal

Episode 763 - Mark Hummel - A fast-paced dark comedy, Man, UndergroundMark Hummel's most recent work is the award-winning dark, comic novel Man, Underground. He is also the author of the novel In the Chameleon's Shadow and the short story collection Lost and Found. He has been publishing fiction, essays, and poetry in literary magazines and anthologies since 1991. His work has appeared, among many other places, in the pages of The Arlington Literary Journal, The Bloomsbury Review, Dogwood, Fugue, Per Contra, Talking River Review, The Wrath-Bearing Tree, Weber: the Contemporary West, and Zone 3. Writing as Mark Leichliter, he is the author of the crime novel The Other Side.Writing Is a Lifelong PracticeMark Hummel Leichliter has spent his life around writing as a writer, editor, teacher, coach, and mentor. He believes writers improve through practice and remain students of their craft throughout their careers. The page can teach you, especially when you approach the work with curiosity and an openness to learning.Good readers play a major role in that process. Mark relies on trusted readers who care enough to identify problems and help him see possibilities within a manuscript. Their feedback can reveal paths that remain hidden while a writer stays too close to the work.Follow the BookMark writes across genres and deliberately embraces experimentation. He follows the needs of each book rather than forcing every project into the same approach. A new manuscript can demand a different voice, structure, perspective, or narrative strategy.That philosophy also shapes his view of publishing. Writers can waste valuable energy chasing trends, studying the market, or trying to predict what publishers want. Mark encourages writers to focus on creating the best book they can and to write the book they want to read.Man, UndergroundMark's 2023 novel, Man, Underground, grew from an idea he began exploring more than a decade earlier. The dark comedy follows a middle-aged man who withdraws from society and builds an underground home. His unconventional life attracts scrutiny and labels him as someone who does not fit accepted expectations.A seventeen-year-old named Monica changes everything. Her determination to help him creates an unexpected friendship and gives the story a path toward connection, hope, and change.The novel explores the human tendency to label people as different and push them outside the community. Mark uses comedy to examine serious social questions while allowing the story to move toward empathy and connection.Mark's approach to writing centers on curiosity, experimentation, trusted readers, and a willingness to follow where the story leads. Man, Underground reflects that philosophy through a story about isolation, unexpected friendship, and the possibility of finding connection across perceived differences.https://markhummelwriter.com/man-underground/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Send us Fan MailA murder mystery based on a board game sounds like a cash-in, but Clue (1985) is the kind of whodunit comedy that keeps getting funnier the more you watch it. We rewatch it with fresh eyes and immediately get pulled back into the manic energy of Tim Curry's Wadsworth, the razor-sharp ensemble timing, and the film's weirdly perfect blend of witty dialogue and physical comedy.We dig into the real swing that made Clue legendary: the alternate endings. What “really” happened? Paramount's attempt to explain it all ended up spoiling the experience in print. We break down why that theatrical experiment stumbled, why the VHS cut saved the movie, and how the endings (yes plural) turned a box office disappointment into a cult classic movie night staple.Along the way we hit casting and production trivia (including a major Star Wars what-if), talk costume choices, and admit where the plot holes show up when you try to map the mansion like it's a real place. Then we pick favorite quotes, rate the film, and finish with a Clue trivia showdown that turns into its own mini mystery.If you love Clue, Knives Out-style mystery comedy, or just want a movie review podcast that nerds out over craft and jokes, hit play. Subscribe, share this with a friend who can quote “flames on the side of my face,” and leave a review telling us which ending you consider the real one.Support the show

SUBURBAKNIGHT: Act Three Walter Knope has spent most of his life avoiding confrontation. That is about to become difficult. Walter, Samantha and Bobby Joe cross the street armed with a sword, a crossbow, a mace, a revolver and one deeply impractical suit of medieval armor. Richard is waiting. So is the rest of the neighborhood. Inside Richard's house they discover the party has evolved into something considerably less HOA-approved. Music. Neon. Blood. An orgy full of succubi. Richard sitting above it all like Satan's sexiest homeowners association president. Samantha asks where her daughter is. Then shoots Richard through the eye with a crossbow. It barely slows him down. Written by Nick Bannister, SUBURBAKNIGHT reaches its gloriously unhinged conclusion as Walter's fight to save his family becomes a full-scale supernatural war over everything he thought he had already lost. Richard separates them. Walter gets beaten nearly unconscious. Samantha is pulled into a seductive nightmare built from everything she thinks she wants. And Bobby Joe does what any legendary demon hunter would do when confronted with actual demons. He runs. Unfortunately, Richard isn't finished with him either. Bobby Joe finds himself inside the greatest fantasy of his life: back on the set of Terror Vision, surrounded by beautiful women telling him he's brilliant. Even Bobby Joe eventually realizes something is wrong. When the illusion breaks, he finds Mia. Or at least something wearing Mia. One conveniently placed antique mirror later, Bobby Joe finally discovers that some of his monster-movie bullshit may actually be useful. For perhaps the first time in his life, Bobby Joe Williams earns the title: Demon Hunter. Mia is safe. Her parents aren't. So Bobby Joe locks her in his van and goes back inside. Walter and Bobby Joe reunite, fight their way through Richard's newly demonic neighbors and discover something hidden beneath the perfect suburban house. A passageway. An underground chamber. And portraits proving Richard has been doing this for centuries. At the end of the tunnel, Walter finds Samantha. Richard has already gotten to her. Now Walter has to do something harder than fighting a demon. He has to remind his wife why she loved him in the first place. College. Their first night together. Bringing Mia home. Losing his father. Twenty years of marriage, mistakes, resentment, forgiveness and everything that somehow survived underneath it. For once, Walter gets the words right. And Richard discovers that a disappointing middle-aged husband with an antique sword, a pissed-off wife and a washed-up horror host can be surprisingly difficult to kill. What follows involves swords, guns, fire, a full-size demon, one extremely unfortunate anatomical injury and Bobby Joe's panel van. Because sometimes saving your marriage takes work. Sometimes it takes therapy. And sometimes it takes blowing up an incubus. Starring Darin Toonder, Jim O'Heir, Jade Tailor, Jack Daniel, Rob Fitzgerald, Logan Laurel, Emily Brolin, Ashley Platz, and Zeke Alton.

SUBURBAKNIGHT: Act Two Walter Knope has finally discovered the one thing worse than suspecting your new neighbor is a sex demon. Being right. Inside Richard's immaculate house, Walter gets the confirmation he was looking for. The Maitlands are dead. Richard isn't human. And he isn't just interested in Samantha. He wants everything Walter has. Walter tries to warn Sam. It goes badly. What starts as an argument about Richard quickly becomes an argument about money, sex, failure, jealousy and every other thing a married couple has been politely not saying out loud. Sam packs a bag. Walter, terrified Richard will get to her, practically helps her leave. Written by Nick Bannister, SUBURBAKNIGHT is a wicked suburban horror-comedy about marriage, masculinity and what happens when your midlife crisis actually grows horns. Walter needs someone who understands monsters. Enter Bobby Joe Williams. Local horror host. Full-time drunk. Part-time monster expert. Possibly the least reassuring person you could want standing between your family and eternal damnation. Bobby Joe confirms the bad news. Richard is an incubus. He feeds on souls, controls his victims through desire and, unfortunately, appears to be immortal. Meanwhile, Richard has already started remaking the neighborhood. Walter goes looking for Andy and instead finds him dead in the bathtub, his wife Alli transformed into something considerably less neighborly. Walter barely escapes with his life. Then Samantha comes home. Richard is waiting. This time, Sam sees him too. When Richard finally drops the charm and shows them what he really is, he offers Walter everything he ever wanted. Money. Freedom. A fresh start. All he wants in return is Samantha. Walter says no. Then Mia introduces Richard's face to a medieval mace. For a moment, it feels like the Knopes may actually have this thing under control. Then Richard takes their daughter. Now Walter and Sam are done running. They need Mia back. They need help. Unfortunately, the closest thing they have to a professional is Bobby Joe Williams in boxer shorts drinking margarita straight from a blender pitcher. So they do what any responsible parents would do. They raid the failed antique business. Crossbow. Mace. Axe. Sword. Armor. Walter's junk has finally found a purpose. And across the street, Richard is waiting. Starring Darin Toonder, Jim O'Heir, Jade Tailor, Jack Daniel, Rob Fitzgerald, Logan Laurel, Emily Brolin, Ashley Platz, and Zeke Alton.

Toxic Masculinity returns in missing-man formation as Rick Robinson, Aggie, Vincent Charles, Andrew, and Ordy attempt to process a week that delivered both genuinely sad losses and material far too ridiculous to ignore.The panel remembers Dolly Parton and Tim Curry through their music, movies, television appearances, comedy, and lasting influence on popular culture. The tributes quickly expand into conversations about ‘Clue,' ‘The Rocky Horror Picture Show,' ‘Muppet Treasure Island,' forgotten George Hamilton movies, alternate theatrical endings, and the strange phenomenon of owning DVDs you have never watched.Then there's what the panel thought was California's classroom “fart corner,” BUT ATLANTA, because apparently children now require an officially designated location to perform a perfectly ordinary bodily function. Aggie supplies an Old Cuban cocktail, the panel debates whether leftover champagne exists, and the conversation wanders through Yoko Ono threats, Keith Richards' immortality, celebrity death superstitions, workplace advice, and the expanding Vincent Charles Project movie queue.It's grief, cocktails, classic movies, terrible ideas, and affectionate chaos—Toxic Masculinity style.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/toxic-masculinity--3325185/support.

Joshua Hunter reviews Byeeee, Chell Stephen's pitch-black comedy starring friend of the podcast Romina D'Ugo as Andy, a disgraced tech founder who retreats to her family's abandoned lakeside cottage after a very public scandal — for what she insists will be her final weekend alive. Joshua breaks down how the film balances its dark humor with genuine emotional weight, digs into D'Ugo's breakout performance, and unpacks whether this two-hander about performance, isolation, and the absurd logistics of self-destruction earns its comedy without undercutting its heavier themes. 

Joshua Hunter takes on Arizona, the 2018 dark comedy thriller starring Danny McBride, Rosemarie DeWitt, and Luke Wilson. Set against the backdrop of the housing market crash, the film follows a struggling realtor who gets pulled into a spiral of chaos after a shady home-flipper's world starts falling apart. Joshua breaks down whether the film's mix of dark humor and thriller tension actually lands, how McBride's performance holds up against his usual comedic roles, and if this one deserves a bigger audience than it got on release. Reel talk, reel opinions — no filter.

DOES RICKY GERVAIS WRITE BURNHAM'S POLICIES?! UK IS A DARK, DARK COMEDY! #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV #AndyBurnham #RickyGervais #UKIsASickComedy #HomeOffice #AsylumSeekers #IllegalImmigration #IllegalMigrants  You genuinely couldn't make this stuff up. The Home Office has produced a nine-page guide for asylum seekers explaining that rape is illegal, women have equal rights, sexual consent matters, domestic abuse is illegal and you cannot have sex with children under 16. Seriously?! If the Government believes some people arriving in Britain need to be TOLD these things, isn't that itself a massive warning sign? And what exactly is a pamphlet supposed to achieve? This feels like the ultimate case of shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted. Instead of another leaflet, another poster and another Government initiative, why aren't we having the much bigger debate about who is entering Britain, how they are vetted, where they are housed and what happens when they commit serious crimes? There have been horrific cases involving individual asylum seekers convicted of sexual offences. Those crimes have real victims — women and children whose suffering isn't remotely funny. That's why this becomes a dark, dark comedy rather than something we can simply laugh about.  For years, people raising legitimate questions about young undocumented men being accommodated in hotels, HMOs and other facilities have sometimes felt dismissed as racists or bigots. But asking questions about safeguarding, security and vetting is not the same thing as claiming every migrant is dangerous.  Meanwhile, what is Andy Burnham talking about? He's embraced TikTok politics, he's been talking about bread rolls, and today he's announcing another initiative — this time tackling fly-tipping. Of course fly-tipping matters. But Britain also faces enormous questions about borders, crime, prisons, housing and the cost of living. Are our politicians concentrating on the country's biggest priorities — or concentrating on producing the next social-media clip? It increasingly feels like we're trapped inside a Ricky Gervais dark comedy. Except this isn't Netflix. THIS IS BRITAIN. Join Jon Gaunt LIVE and tell me what YOU think. Is the Home Office pamphlet sensible information for newcomers — or does its very existence demonstrate how badly our immigration and integration policies have gone wrong? And has Andy Burnham got his priorities right?  GET INVOLVED. HAVE YOUR SAY. AND DON'T HOLD BACK.

White guy three names and spousal murder. What a thing!

Samy Burch's new film, LATE FAME, stars Willem Dafoe and Greta Lee and opens this coming weekend; her big debut, MAY DECEMBER, earned her an Oscar nomination.

Fargo (1996) turns 30 this year. On this episode of The Cinema Psycho Show, hosts Brian and John are joined by Katie and Nat from The VHS Club podcast to revisit the Coen brothers' Minnesota crime classic — including why detective Marge Gunderson spent most of the investigation with almost nothing to go on but a single vague description of her "funny looking" suspect. In this episode: Why Fargo's dialogue rewards a rewatch more than almost any crime film of the '90s Marge Gunderson's investigation, and how one bystander's description of a "funny looking" suspect drives the entire back half of the movie The real production story behind the movie's snow (there wasn't enough of it) A live read-through of listener and Letterboxd reviews of Fargo, 30 years later Final ratings and verdict from Brian, John, Katie, and Nat Quick answers: Is Fargo based on a true story? No. Despite the film's opening title card, Fargo is a work of fiction — a detail the Coens have confirmed for decades, and one the hosts dig into on this episode. Where does Fargo take place? Mostly in Brainerd, Minnesota — not the city of Fargo, North Dakota, despite the title. Who stars in Fargo? Frances McDormand as Marge Gunderson, William H. Macy as Jerry Lundegaard, Steve Buscemi as Carl Showalter, and Peter Stormare as Gaear Grimsrud. Who directed Fargo? Joel and Ethan Coen (the Coen brothers), released in 1996.

Jeff Strand joins The Dark Mind Podcast to discuss his new novel, Fun Times at the Bloodbath.The book follows Margo, whose brother dies during the beta test of a video game so addictive that players stop eating, sleeping, and caring about anything outside the screen.When anyone tries to make them stop, the obsession turns murderously violent, and the private addiction soon threatens to become a nationwide catastrophe.In this conversation, Jeff breaks down how he built the concept around the feeling of “just one more level.”We talk about balancing dark comedy with genuine brutality, keeping the horror grounded instead of supernatural, and using the story as satire on how games are designed to keep us playing.Jeff also discusses his wider career, including Pressure, Bloodsucker County, Your Body Will Never Be Found, and his novelization of the cult classic Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.It is a fun, bloody, and surprisingly thoughtful conversation about addiction, entertainment, and what happens when we refuse to look away.JEFF STRAND LINKSOfficial Websitehttps://www.jeffstrand.comPatreonhttps://www.patreon.com/JeffStrandAmazon Author Pagehttps://www.amazon.com/author/jeffstrandBarnes & Noble Author Pagehttps://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/Jeff+StrandTwitter / Xhttps://x.com/JeffStrandInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/jeffstrandauthor/Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/JeffStrandAuthor/SUPPORT THE DARK MIND PODCASThttps://www.patreon.com/c/thedarkmindpodcast

Relationships are messy, and this week, we profile a chaotic, modern farce that puts the ‘screw' into screwball—a movie that finds absurdist comedy in the hypocrisies, jealousies, and self-deceptions of ethical non monogamy complete with plenty of hanging hog. It's a satire of modern love with old school comedy techniques. It's Michael Angelo Covino's Splitsville.Check us out on...Twitter @TSMoviePodFacebook: Time SensitiveInstagram: @timesensitivepodcastGrab some Merch at TeePublicBig Heads Media

In this heartfelt episode of the Nacho Kids Podcast, Lori Sims welcomes guest Donna Kendrick, who shares her deeply personal story of loss, resilience, and blending families. Raised in Philadelphia, Donna Kendrick describes her journey from being married to a Philadelphia police officer, living abroad as a family, and navigating the aftermath of her husband's tragic taking of his own life after their return to the U.S. She candidly discusses how mental health struggles, grief, and trust issues shaped her decisions as a widow and a mother. Donna Kendrick goes on to recount meeting her current husband, a carpenter who had originally helped with renovations after her first husband's passing, and the slow, organic way their families and children came together. Through life's unexpected twists, including her husband's ex-wife's battle with cancer and the logistical and emotional challenges of moving and merging households, Donna Kendrick highlights the power of empathy, extended family support, and humor in navigating the ups and downs of blended family life.

FANCY YOURSELF A CELEB EXPERT? Take The Spill's Pop Culture Quiz here.There's a brand-new young adult romance that's completely binge-worthy, and if you've been rewatching The Summer I Turned Pretty and Off Campus, this is your next obsession. It's set in a picturesque lakeside town with impossibly attractive brothers, and characters navigating first love, secrets, and the kind of emotional complexity that makes you want to keep pressing play at 2am.Plus, a darkly comic slasher that's an absolute masterpiece has just hit streaming services. Jason Segel and Samara Weaving have come out with one of the best screams in the business, playing a married couple whose relationship has deteriorated so badly that they've each independently decided to kill each other on a romantic getaway. It's hilarious, chaotic, properly gory, and proof that sometimes watching a relationship implode in the most absurd, violent way possible is the funniest thing you'll see all week.
