Over the last century, mummy movies have taken many different forms. But “Lee Cronin's The Mummy” pushes this classic tale into full-on body horror territory. Tune in as we break down this modern reimagining — from the most explicitly gory scenes, to the moments that gave us serious “The Exorcist” vibes, and how it channels the same brutal style Cronin brought to “Evil Dead Rise.”

Face Off 1997 Review is here, and this week the boys take a long, hard look at one of the biggest action blockbusters of the 90s… and ask the question, what the hell happened?Whitey and Gow dive back into Face/Off, the John Woo-directed chaos fest starring John Travolta and Nicolas Cage, a film that once felt groundbreaking but now might just be completely cooked.Right from the start, the boys acknowledge the harsh reality of revisiting old favourites. What once felt like peak cinema now feels like a two-hour fever dream filled with slow motion, overacting, and some of the most questionable plot logic ever put to screen. Whitey sums it up best: the rose-coloured glasses are officially in the bin.The episode kicks off with reflections on the late 90s blockbuster era, a time when bigger always meant better. More explosions, more slow-mo, more everything. And Face Off might just be the ultimate example of that excess. Directed by John Woo, the film leans hard into his signature style, doves, dual pistols, slow motion, and operatic action, but the question is whether it still holds up today.There's a deep dive into the performances, particularly the bizarre dynamic where Travolta and Cage are essentially playing each other. The boys break down the "Cage-ness" of Travolta and the "Travolta-ness" of Cage, and how both actors dial everything up to eleven. Sometimes it works, sometimes it absolutely does not.The plot itself, a cop and a terrorist swapping faces to stop a bomb, gets absolutely torn apart in classic Born to Watch fashion. The more the boys think about it, the less sense it makes. From the prison logic to the healing time of the face surgery, to the complete lack of awareness from literally every other character, the questions just keep piling up.One of the biggest talking points is the film's runtime. At over two hours, it feels bloated, especially given the endless slow-motion sequences. What could have been a tight, high-energy action flick instead becomes a drawn-out spectacle that struggles to justify its length.That said, it's not all bad. There are moments where the film still delivers. The core concept is undeniably bold; the action sequences, while over-the-top, are memorable; and there's a certain nostalgic charm to seeing two massive 90s stars go head-to-head in such a ridiculous premise.The boys also touch on how the film compares to other Cage-era action hits like The Rock and Con Air, with a general consensus that Face Off might be the weakest of the bunch, mainly because it takes itself just a bit too seriously.As always, the episode blends genuine film analysis with plenty of laughs, questionable impressions, and absolute disbelief at some of the film's creative decisions.If you loved this movie growing up, prepare to have your memories challenged. And if you've never seen it, well… maybe keep those expectations in check.JOIN THE CONVERSATIONHas Face Off aged badly, or are we being too harsh?Is this peak 90s action or complete chaos?And who did it better, Cage or Travolta?#FaceOff #MoviePodcast #BornToWatch #90sMovies #ActionMovies #NicolasCage #JohnTravolta #FilmReview #MovieReview #Podcast

Growing up, “Faces of Death” (1978) was that taboo VHS tape everyone talked about — infamous for supposedly showing real deaths and executions. Though it was eventually revealed to be fake, the fascination with watching tragic events feels even more relevant today. Tune in to hear our thoughts on the new “Faces of Death” — from the strong performances by Barbie Ferreira and Dacre Montgomery, to the scenes that had our hearts pounding, and why this meta adaptation works so well as a modern slasher.

Sisters being hunted by devil-worshipping rich people must be a popular trope right now, because just one week after “Ready or Not 2: Here I Come,” we got another action horror flick with a similar setup.

Send a textA Predator with a heartbeat changes everything. We take you into Badlands, where Dek, the runt of a Yautja clan, hunts a nightmare that even his father fears, and where Thia, a synth with surprising empathy, rewrites the rules of survival. This isn't just another invisibility-cloak stalk-and-slash. It's a character-first story built on honor, trust, and a planet that wants you dead the second you step on it.We unpack how Badlands bridges Predator and Alien without feeling like homework. From Weyland-Yutani fingerprints to the chilling return of “MU / TH / UR,” the film plants canon ties that feel earned. The ecosystem is more than a backdrop: razor grass shapes armor strategy, aerial hunters weaponize the environment, and the Kalisk's regeneration forces smarter tactics. We dive into the “baby” Kalisk twist, why it works beyond cute-factor, and how it reframes Deck's mission from trophy to responsibility.Our conversation goes deep on synth morality, Thia's evolving conscience vs Tessa's corporate directives, and why giving a Predator visible emotion can expand the myth without neutering it. We call out the clean action geography, expressive creature work, and why the PG-13 rating still lands visceral impact through alien fluids, industrial carnage, and mounting dread. Then we look ahead: the final shot hints at a matriarchal reckoning, possible crossover momentum, and a sequel path that could let Predator carry the honor-and-tactics banner while Alien brings the biotech nightmares.If you're here for lore, we've got it; if you're here for a smart, modern hunt story, you'll find that too. Hit play, join the debate on Yautja culture, synth ethics, and the Kalask design, and tell us: should the Predator evolve emotionally, or stay mask-and-mystery forever?

In Tyler Perry's Joe's College Road Trip, Perry takes one of his most unhinged characters, Joe, and pushes him even further.

The film opens with a content warning that still doesn't prepare you for what's coming.When Brian asks Joe and Madea for help after discovering how little B.J. knows about HBCUs and Black history, Joe and his grandson sets off on a chaotic, raunchy, and controversial road trip that takes us from Mississippi cotton fields to Tennessee blues clubs… and even a brothel scene that has the internet debating how far is too far for Tyler Perry these days?Is Perry mixing education and vulgar humor in a bold new way or is this a misfire that strays too far from his core audience?  TeaRon & BK break down the shock factor, the cultural conversations, and whether TP Studios should continue down this road.––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––Follow Us:IG: @tearonworld / @bkwitda4fa4TT: @tearon__ / @bkgostupidFB: facebook.com/UbiquitousBlacksTHRD: @ubiquitousblacks–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––About UBIQUITOUS BLACKS REVIEWS:'Ubiquitous Blacks Reviews' is an extension of the Ubiquitous Blacks Podcast where TeaRon (IG: @tearonworld) reviews the latest in Black Movies, TV Shows, and more.

Send us a textWelcome back to DMR!This year's top ten movies of the year reflects a powerful mix of blockbuster spectacle, bold storytelling, and franchise reinvention that dominated the film conversation. Standout titles like The Naked Gun, Mission: Impossible, Avatar Fire & Ash, F1, Weapons, Sinners, and One Battle After Another showcase how studios leaned hard into recognizable IP while still taking creative risks. From high-octane action and jaw-dropping visuals to darker, character-driven thrillers, these films fueled nonstop discussion among movie fans, critics, and podcast audiences alike. Searches for best movies of the year, top ten films, and must-see blockbusters surged as audiences returned to theaters looking for cinematic events worth the big screen experience.This year was also packed with major events in film, including massive opening weekends, long-awaited sequels, and filmmakers pushing technology and storytelling forward. Avatar Fire & Ash continued to redefine visual effects and world-building, while Mission: Impossible proved practical stunts still draw crowds. The surprise buzz around films like Sinners and Weapons highlighted the growing appetite for original, edgy cinema alongside tentpole releases. Meanwhile, industry moments such as record-breaking box office performances, renewed debates around theatrical vs. streaming releases, and the rise of filmmaker-driven franchises made this a landmark year for movies.

This is our spoiler-free review for Avatar: Fire and Ash. We return to Pandora to discuss the film's breathtaking visuals, massive scale, and the performances of key characters like Jake Sully and Neytiri, while also unpacking where it falls short. Despite its undeniable spectacle, the story leans heavily on familiar themes and conflicts, offering little meaningful progression, and the dialogue often feels clunky and on-the-nose. We also touch on how the focus on human characters can detract from the richness of Pandora itself. Ultimately, Avatar: Fire and Ash is stunning to watch, but leaves us wanting more from its storytelling.Avatar: Fire and Ash, the third film in the phenomenally successful “Avatar” franchise, opens exclusively in theatres worldwide December 19, 2025.  Check out Geekcentric onYouTube | Instagram | Twitter | TikTokJoin the Geekcentric Discord HEREFollow Eatcentric - Same geeks.

Lauren covers the Dancing with the Stars 20th anniversary special, while Kevin and Andrew swap stories about comedy shows, reality TV, and a pair of standout pilots. We close with a deep look at Welcome to Derry, exploring its scares, character work, and surprising historical layers. If you love TV breakdowns, movie reviews, comedy deep dives, and off-the-rails pop culture banter, you're in the right place.

Will he think Ash Williams is the original cringe lord? Or will the boomstick win him over and prove that practical effects, skeleton armies, and Sam Raimi chaos still slap in 2025? We grew up calling this peak cinema… now it's time to find out if Gen-Z agrees.
