    Actress/Director Elisabeth Röhm takes us inside two true crime stories where the threat wasn’t a stranger, it was a father. Larry Ray, newly out of prison, was allowed to move into his daughter’s college dorm and slowly take control of her friends. How his manipulation starts as “help,” how shame and exhaustion chip away at identity, and how smart young people can lose themselves without realizing it. Then, she unpacks the unimaginable horror behind Girl in the Basement: 24 years of captivity, seven children born underground, and the one medical crisis that finally exposed a family’s darkest secret.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Psychological horror breakdown time. Henrique Couto & Rachael Redolfi dive into Ti West's Pearl (2022) — the candy-colored prequel to X that turns ambition, isolation, repression, and rage into a full-blown descent. We talk Mia Goth's star-making performance, why the film feels like a twisted classic-Hollywood fever dream, and how the story's backdrop of 1918 rural life, sickness, and war-era anxiety amplifies Pearl's need to be seen… and her capacity to snap.This is a spoiler-friendly discussion that balances analysis with fun commentary: the movie's look, tone, character psychology, and what Pearl is really saying about fame hunger, performing normal, and the horror of being trapped in the life you didn't choose.Where to watch (U.S.)Apple TV (rent/buy): https://tv.apple.com/us/movie/pearl/umc.cmc.75j73kjmgv3th4uw9nrotobyq“Where to stream” hub (rent/buy listings): https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/pearl-2022Inside this episodeWhy Pearl works as psychological horror and character studyThe “Technicolor nightmare” vibe: how style makes the violence hit harderPearl's need for stardom vs. the reality of confinement and caretakingThe movie's emotional pressure-cooker: control, shame, resentment, longingHow Pearl connects to X (and why the trilogy view is so rewarding)The performances and moments that make the film unforgettable

    Before SURVIVOR was popular, people in the 1920's would find themselves on an isolated, inhospitable island, driven by survival and searching for that one piece of personal peace and salvation.Ron Howard's EDEN kinda does that with a bunch of sexy actors enacting the true story of a group of people setting up life in the Galapagos Islands. What ensues is a pinch of madness. A crumble of humanity and plenty of foul behavior.Depending on who you speak to, this is either "not bad" or "straight down the middle". That equates to a whole bunch of mediocrity. But it's coming out near Valentine's so, all is forgiven!

    Sworn to Justice (1996) was chosen by friend of the show and Patreon supporter Leigh, and is a prime example of mid-90s direct-to-video action thrillers built around martial arts credentials and late-night cable appeal. Produced by PM Entertainment — a studio known for churning out low-budget, high-concept action films — the movie was designed specifically for the booming VHS rental market rather than theatrical release. Director Paul Maslak leaned into the studio's house style: fast-paced action, neon-lit cityscapes, and a blend of crime, thriller, and exploitation elements. The film was shot quickly and economically, typical of PM's efficient production model, which prioritized practical stunts and tight schedules over polish or prestige.The production's biggest selling point was its lead, Cynthia Rothrock, already a well-established martial arts star with multiple Hong Kong and American action credits. Her real-life fighting background allowed the filmmakers to stage fight scenes with minimal doubles, keeping the choreography grounded and physical. Filming took place largely around Los Angeles, using recognizable streets and interiors to stretch the budget while maintaining a contemporary urban feel. Like many PM Entertainment titles, Sworn to Justice found its audience through home video, cable rotation, and word of mouth, eventually earning cult status among fans of 90s action cinema and martial arts B-movies. Today, it's remembered as a quintessential slice of direct-to-video action filmmaking — scrappy, stylish, and unapologetically of its era.Checkout Leigh on The Movie Vent.If you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.Referral links also help out the show if you were going to sign up:⁠⁠⁠NordVPN⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NordPass⁠⁠⁠Trailer Guy Plot SummaryA city drowning in crime… a system that's failed… and one woman who's had enough.When the law can't protect the innocent, justice goes underground. Trained to fight, driven by vengeance, and armed with nothing but her fists and her will, one relentless warrior takes the streets by storm — tearing through criminals, conspiracies, and anyone foolish enough to stand in her way.*Sworn to Justice* — no badge… no backup… no mercy.Fun FactsSworn to Justice is often categorized as an “erotic thriller meets martial arts action” hybrid, a niche genre that was surprisingly popular in the mid-1990s video market.The film was released during the peak VHS rental era, when action titles like this regularly outperformed small theatrical releases in video stores.Cynthia Rothrock performs nearly all of her own fight choreography, showcasing authentic Tang Soo Do and karate techniques rather than stylized wire work.The movie blends martial arts with noir-style detective elements, giving it a darker tone compared to Rothrock's earlier Hong Kong films.Several supporting cast members were real stunt performers, which helped make the fight scenes feel more physical and less choreographed.The film developed a late-night cable TV following on networks like USA Network and HBO Zone throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s.Rothrock fans often rank this among her most “adult-oriented” American roles, marking a tonal shift from her earlier PG-13 action vehicles.The movie features a synth-heavy 90s action score, typical of direct-to-video thrillers of the era.Collectors consider original VHS and DVD releases of the film minor cult items within martial arts movie circles.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠thevhsstrikesback@gmail.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/vhsstrikesback⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

    Trump on Trial

    I never thought I'd be glued to my screen watching court battles unfold like a high-stakes thriller, but here we are in the thick of President Donald Trump's second term, with legal fights erupting everywhere from federal appeals courts to the steps of the Supreme Court. Just last Friday, a divided panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit upheld the Trump administration's immigration detention policy, mandating that people arrested in the crackdown stay detained without bond, as reported by Reuters journalist Nate Raymond. It's a win for the White House's tough stance on borders, keeping the momentum from earlier victories.Meanwhile, the Supreme Court is buzzing with Trump-related pleas. On February 6, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, in National Association of Diversity Officers in Higher Education v. Trump, vacated a nationwide injunction blocking two of Trump's executive orders targeting what he calls illegal diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in federal grantees and contractors. Chief Judge Albert Diaz wrote the opinion, remanding it to the District of Maryland and signaling these orders might survive scrutiny, according to Law and the Workplace analysis. Employers, especially government contractors, are on notice—DEI initiatives could face real enforcement heat now.Over in immigration again, the Trump team filed an official appeal notice in a Haitian Temporary Protected Status suit, challenging U.S. District Judge Ana Reyes' February 2 ruling that halted the cancellation of TPS for Haitian immigrants, per The Columbus Dispatch's Bethany Bruner. Government lawyers even asked Reyes to pause her order by noon that day, pushing the case toward the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit and potentially the Supreme Court itself.Redistricting wars rage on too. The Supreme Court recently cleared new maps for Texas and California—Texas gaining five Republican-friendly House seats, California countering with five for Democrats—yet battles like Louisiana v. Callais over race and the Voting Rights Act continue, as detailed by Washington Examiner's Jack Birle. And get this: Trump's lawyers are petitioning the Supreme Court to toss the 2023 E. Jean Carroll civil verdict against him, arguing in their final brief that the president is too busy running the country to fight old allegations, according to USA Today's Maureen Groppe. The justices will conference on it February 20.Don't forget the bigger picture from the Brennan Center: while Trump was convicted in New York City state court in May 2024 for falsifying business records over hush money to adult film actor Stormy Daniels, three criminal cases linger—federal ones in Washington, D.C., for election interference, Fulton County, Georgia, for the same, and Florida over classified documents. Lawfare's litigation tracker counts 298 active challenges to Trump administration actions on national security, plus 14 Supreme Court stays favoring the feds.Even whispers of impeachment surfaced, with ET Now's February 6 livestream claiming the House of Representatives is deciding Trump's fate—though details remain murky amid the chaos. From Venezuelan TPS revocations paused by the Supreme Court despite U.S. District Judge Edward Chen's rulings in San Francisco, to National Guard deployment blocks in Illinois that Trump ultimately pulled back from Chicago and Portland, these shadow docket moves have real-world bite, as SCOTUSblog explains.It's a legal whirlwind, listeners, with Trump fighting on multiple fronts, courts picking sides, and the Supreme Court wielding quiet power that reshapes policies overnight. Stay tuned as these cases collide toward 2026 elections.Thank you for tuning in, listeners. Come back next week for more, and this has been a Quiet Please production.

    Chris Pratt's new movie takes us into a time where if you've been accused of a violent crime, no lawyer and no jury for you! “Mercy” is about a new AI criminal justice system that uses its super-duper AI powers to play judge, jury and executioner to those accused of violent crime. The accused are locked into a chair and sit face to face with the Mercy AI system which appears in the form of Rebecca Ferguson who looks better than most judges you'll deal with. The accused then has 90 minutes to prove their innocence, and has the AI power of Mercy at their fingertips to do so. It's a cinematic interpretation of the saying “Someone who is their own lawyer has a fool for a client.” In this movie's case, Pratt is a detective so he's got a bit of criminal investigation experience and he puts it to use after he's the one in the Mercy chair, accused of killing his wife. He gets to look through all the evidence. Call anyone in the law enforcement community and they'll go anywhere you need them to in order to find clues, leads, etc. As Pratt leads this investigation to clear himself, he uncovers a sinister plot. Is it worth finding out more in the theater? Watch this episode to find out! “Mercy” also stars Annabelle Wallis, Chris Sullivan, Kali Reis, Kylie Rogers, Jeff Pierre, Rafi Gavron, Kenneth Choi, Jamie McBride and Ross Gosla. Support the showFeel free to reach out to me via:@MoviesMerica on Twitter @moviesmerica on InstagramMovies Merica on Facebook
