We have had many discussions about The Texas Chainsaw Massacre on our humble little podcast. In recent months, we have also talked a lot about Osgood Perkins. We never thought the two of them would come together. The rumor is that may be happening. The question becomes, is that a good thing?We are big enough to admit when we are wrong. Last week, we correctly predicted that the new Final Destinations movie would be number one a the box office. In doing so, we were very dismissive of the franchise. We referred to it as second rate and its box office success would be due to there being little competition. As it turns out, Bloodlines is not only the most successful installment in the series; it is the top grossing horror movie of the year. That being said, we have still have yet to hear anyone say it is their favorite horror franchise.Bad neighbors suck. Yes, there are some things that you learn to put up with it and being to not even care all that much about. But when you have those neighbors that seem to have a complete disregard for you, it can make coming home hell. And if you happen to be the one causing the problems, dealing with police, the people you upset, and retaliation can also be a pill.Restless is a British psychological thriller that sees a woman unravel due to one such neighbor. A mix of great sound design, surprising moments of humor, and great storytelling will catch audiences off guard. It is a basic and relatable story that makes for an enjoyable watch.The Surrender may not be as relatable, but it also boasts strong performances and writing. The tale is one as old as horror. A family conducts a ritual to bring a recently deceased love one back to life. Naturally, it is not as simple as it sounds. And even though the plot may be familiar, it is also not as simple as it sounds. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

On this episode of Remainders we watch the 2002 movie Insomnia. The only movie in Christoher Nolan's filmography in which he doesn't have a writing credit, Insomnia has always felt like an outlier in the director's career. It's most notable aspect was Robin Williams and his villainous role as Finch, a first for Williams. Playing opposite the most strung out possible version of Al Pacino, we see if this thriller holds up.Other topics include Nolan's ranking, follow-up on our Mad Max Fury Road episode, fake reviews for Insomnia, Black Mirror, Andor and Star Wars, the passing of the alligator from Happy Gilmore, Hillary Swank, more Pacino marathon's coming up, and whether or not Nicky Katt has the best line in any Nolan movie.Songs of the WeekThe Swimming Song by Loudon Wainwright IIIIf I Could Only Fly by Blaze FoleyRemainders Jukebox PlaylistWebsiteFacebookInstagramYouTubeTwitter

Will screenlife movies become the found footage of the next generation? Though there have been some noticeable outliers, the genre has not really taken off with audiences. But what if you do one that is also a creature feature plus has family drama. We also review an uncomfortable psychological thriller starring Geoffrey Rush and John Lithgow.This year Blake watched the Oscars while Nathaniel could care less about them. We talk about Demi Moore not winning for The Substance, Quentin Tarantino's amazing casting track record, and record long speeches. The Ready or Not sequel has added a notable name to its cast. Are we ready for it?There is something about screenlife movies that just does not work for us. Host was great and Dashcam was fun, but they usually end up being more frustrating than anything else. Bloat was no different as the filmmaking took us out of it on a number of levels. We could not even imagine why it was done in this style to being with.If the movie were shot in a more traditional style it probably would have been better, but that does not mean it would have been good. The writing is awful presenting the audience with characters that are shallow at best. There is no payoff for the monster and the ending is downright confusing. Maybe we should stick to found footage.The Rule of Jenny Pen was discomforting for different reasons. When you have Rush and Lithgow leading the way, you now acting is not going to be a problem. The atmosphere is a bleak one that only gets darker as the plot progresses. Before long, things have escalated to levels that are almost impossible to watch.But you do not want to look away. That is what makes it such a great film. It is touch to watch and filled with a sense of sadness and hopelessness. It also has two compelling leads and a riveting story. The Rule of Jenny Pen will is an unforgettable watch - for better and for worse. Adventures in Movies! is a part of the Morbidly Beautiful Podcast Network.

Dr. Laura welcomes Bryan Robinson, PhD, a psychotherapist and Professor Emeritus from the University of North Carolina. He is also the best-selling author of over 39 books, including his latest non-fiction, Chained to the Desk in a Hybrid World. Dr. Robinson has researched and written extensively on the subjects of work-life balance, workaholism, and the impact of workaholism on families. Dr. Laura dives deep into Bryan's understanding of work addiction and how to regain perspective and balance in one's life.Dr. Robinson describes his own experience with workaholism and how deeply anxious he'd become if he didn't have work to do. Despite a failing marriage and physical health issues due to workaholism, it wasn't until he had a profound experience with the compassion and clarity exhibited by Tibetan monks that he started his journey toward balance. Bryan explains how counterintuitive it is to stop fighting and learn to float more in life, as in a riptide, but stresses it's finding balance to our fight or flight sympathetic nervous system that holds the key to self-care. Dr. Laura and Dr. Robinson talk about the lessons in his book Chained to the Desk in a Hybrid World, how Gen Z is changing the face of workaholism for the better, what “work jerkery” refers to, and how writing murder mysteries is part of Bryan's own balance in life. “I'm fortunate enough to live on the side of a mountain with an incredible view of the sunsets and just watching the sunset is fulfilling. And it also helps these creative ideas hatch. It's like an incubator. So even though I'm doing nothing, something's happening. And that's what we have to understand. Then what about my shortcomings? I can tell you what those are, but … what are my tallcomings again? People often go blank. But what you're doing is you're bringing balance to your thinking. You know, have a health day to balance out your sick days. Having green time to balance out the screen time.” - Bryan Robinson, PhDWatch this episode on Dr. Laura's YouTube channelAbout Bryan E.

Imagine booking a cozy countryside getaway, only to find your hosts are auditioning for the next season of Psycho B&B. Yeah, it's that kind of nightmare. The film follows an American family who, after a seemingly innocent vacation friendship, accepts an invitation to visit their new British acquaintances. What starts as an awkward cultural exchange quickly spirals into a masterclass of discomfort and dread. It's like Meet the Parents meets The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, with a dash of Get Out for good measure. But it's not about the review; it's the conversation with the crew as we dissect the film's slow-burn tension, the social niceties that make you want to scream, and the ultimate lesson: sometimes, it's okay to be rude if it means staying alive.
