Adam Nayman joins the show to recap his experience at this year's Toronto International Film Festival. He breaks down the fanatical scene at the traveling Criterion Closet, explores his mixed feelings about the lineup at large, and shares his personal favorites from the festival (1:19). Then, Chris Ryan joins the show to share his thoughts on Zach Creggers's horror hit ‘Weapons.' They talk through the discourse surrounding the movie about whether or not it's “about anything,” celebrate Amy Madigan's wonderful performance as Aunt Gladys, and wonder whether it has a legitimate chance to receive some Academy Award nominations (45:13). Finally, they cover the newest legacy sequel from the 'Conjuring' franchise, ‘The Conjuring: Last Rites,' starring Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga. They highlight its shockingly impressive performance at the box office but explain why they found the film to be largely unsuccessful (1:21:09).

Marketing for “The Conjuring: Last Rites” billed it as the end of the series… but considering it had the biggest global opening ever for a horror movie, this franchise will inevitably live on. Tune in to hear us break down all the scariest moments (one in particular that made Matt jump), whether its 135-minute running time was necessary, and how it compared, in our opinion, to the other Conjuring films.

This week on a special Now Showing episode of Forgotten Cinema, the Mikes take a look at "The Conjuring: Last Rites" (2025), the final chapter for Ed and Lorraine Warren.After just completing their YouTube Lead Up series on the mainline The Conjuring films, Mike Field and Mike Butler appreciated how the film gave the Warrens a proper send-off, bringing closure to their story after more than a decade of haunting cases. But while the emotional wrap-up for Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga's characters worked, the rest of the film left them wanting more. The family at the center of the haunting, the scares themselves, and even the demon driving the possession all feel pushed to the background, as the focus shifts almost entirely onto the Warrens.The Mikes also look ahead, speculating on where the franchise might go from here. With the Warrens' story concluded, will The Conjuring Universe reinvent itself, double down on spinoffs, or finally find a fresh case worth haunting?What did you think of the film? Did you scream with glee or boo at the ghosts? Let us know in the comments below!

Synopsis Paranormal Investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren played by Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga think they are retired from ghost busting, but just when you think you're out, the demons pull you back in. The Smurl family in Pennsylvania start experiencing malevolent supernatural happenings after the grandfather gives a terrible birthday gift to the second oldest daughter. A broken mirror. Gee thanks Grandpa. The hauntings ramp up and soon it is apparent that a demon is infesting the house. The Warrens reluctantly engage with the Smurls and soon find out that the demon has actually lured them into a trap. Review of The Conjuring: Last Rights This is the ninth installment in the Conjuring Universe films, 11th if you include Wolves at the Door and Curse of La Llarona. In my opinion, if you've seen one, you've seen them all. That's not to say that this movie is bad. This movie along with all the other conjuring movies is competently made, maintains a consistent style, and has good acting. My criticism is that like the other films, this one prioritizes atmosphere and technique over substance. A beef I have with these movies is that they all suffer from what I call spooky house syndrome, where every house is dimly lit with 25 watt bulbs, and is suffering from a concerning amount of mold damage and electrical problems. Are they trying to scare us with ghosts or the horrors of home ownership? Similarly, the script is competent, but surface level. I can't tell you anything about the personalities of any of the characters outside of the tired tropes of “the protective father”, and the “brat sister”. What the film does well is display some of the most professional turning around acting I've ever seen. After four films as Lorraine Warren, Vera Farmiga has perfected the art of slowly turning her head for effect. It works so well at establishing the tension that they do it about 178 times in this film. The film makers know you are coming for tension and jump scares, so that's what they prioritize here. There are some really great scenes of creepy dolls, whispered voices, and foreboding darkness that are masterclasses in technique. However they are all interchangeable and do little to move the story forward other than just increase the intensity. Score 6/10
Paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren take on one last terrifying case involving mysterious entities they must confront.

The Conjuring returns in the fourth and final installment of the franchise and it feels like a natural continuation thanks to the return of Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga as Ed and Lorraine Warren. After watching the movie last night, in my opinion, the movie is terrifying, emotional, thrilling, pure horror magic and it's a must-see epic conclusion. Rebecca and I went into a deep conversation about her role in the movie, some behind the scenes secrets, and what it was like to film a movie based on a true haunting. What she had to say about all of that is justly remarkable. The details given in this interview explain a lot about the haunting and what actually happened. Brace yourselves for a phenomenal interview with gifted and wonderful Rebecca Calder as she delivered one of these best roles in The Conjuring Universe. In my humble and honest opinion, the ‘Smurl Case' is the darkest in the series because in the 1980s the whole country was on edge with everything going on: serial killers, more hauntings being reported across the United States, The Berlin Wall, and much more. Senses were heightened and spirits are drawn to that.

September's going to be a busy month, we can tell already. We took a week off at the end of the summer but we're coming in hot to start the fall here at Breakfast All Day. Supposedly "The Conjuring: Last Rites" is the final film in the franchise -- it says so right there in the title! -- but nothing ever really ends. This is once again the scariest case Ed and Lorraine Warren have ever taken, something to do with a haunted mirror. You've seen it all before, but Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga are committed to the bit as always. In theaters. Then we review both Spike Lee's "Highest 2 Lowest" and Akira Kurosawa's "High and Low," the 1963 film that inspired it. The new one stars Denzel Washington as a music industry titan fighting a kidnapping scheme; Toshiro Mifune played a shoe company executive in the original. They have similar bones but are extremely different in how they tell their stories. The Kurosawa film is one of his greats, and Lee's latest is his most purely entertaining movie in a while. (At least one of us thought so.) You can catch "Highest 2 Lowest" on Apple TV+, while "High and Low" is on HBO Max and The Criterion Channel. Finally, we did a lengthy Movie News LIVE! Lots to talk about with fall festival season beginning, plus new trailers including "28 Years Later: The Bone Temple," and the gross use of AI to complete Orson Welles' "The Magnificent Ambersons."

Min 4: SUPERFILTRO LUCHINI VERANO 2025 Sube el telón la nueva temporada de Estamos de Cine con un capítulo que pivotará en torno a un necesario y pertinente SUPERFILTRO LUCHINI. Y es que hay mucho qué ponderar todo un verano de taquillazos y sensaciones que nos piden a gritos pasar por la camilla de nuestros críticos, Alberto Luchini, Raquel Hernández y Roberto Lancha. "Superman" (2 estrellas) "Los Cuatro Fantásticos" (3 estrellas) "Weapons" (4 estrellas) "Devuélvemela" (3 estrellas) "TRes amigas" (4 estrellas) "EL regreso de Ulises" (4 estrellas) son algunos de los títulos que destaca y valora el equipo del programa de Cine de Radio Castilla-La Mancha. Min 31: LOS ESTRENOS DE LA SEMANA: LOS WARREN A POR EL TOP 1 "Expediente Warren: El último Rito" Cuarta y última entrega de la saga de terror más taquillera de la última década. Patrick Wilson y Vera Farmiga vuelven a ser Ed y Lorraine Warren en un caso que les enfrentará no solo a las fuerzas del mal, sino también a sus propios límites. La película, dirigida por Michael Chaves y producida por James Wan, combina exorcismos, posesiones y atmósferas opresivas con un tono más sombrío y de despedida. La crítica señala cierto desgaste en la fórmula, pero el magnetismo de sus protagonistas y la intensidad de sus escenas siguen garantizando una experiencia escalofriante. Un cierre esperado para una saga que marcó un antes y un después en el cine de terror contemporáneo. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3 estrellas Min 41: "ROMERÍA" la nueva película de Carla Simón, cierra su trilogía familiar con una historia profundamente personal. Marina recorre Vigo en busca de los recuerdos de sus padres fallecidos por sida y enfrentará la vergüenza silenciada de su familia. Ovacionada en Cannes, esta obra íntima y emotiva ya está en carrera para representar a España en los Oscar 2026. Carla Simón, con esa mezcla de delicadeza y memoria, vuelve a emocionarnos. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 4'5 estrellas Min 46: "EL TALENTO" Dirigida por Polo Menárguez y coprotagonizada por Ester Expósito y Pedro Casablanc, adapta con ambición la novela La señorita Else (1924) de Arthur Schnitzler, explorando los dilemas éticos en el seno de la alta sociedad española, a través de una historia cargada de suspenso, música y tensión moral CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 2.5 estrellas Min 48: LO QUE APRENDÍ DE MI PINGÜINO Dirigida por Peter Cattaneo, es una conmovedora comedia dramática basada en hechos reales, protagonizada por Steve Coogan y Jonathan Pryce. El filme adapta las memorias de Tom Michell, un profesor inglés que en 1976 acepta dar clases en una escuela argentina mientras atraviesa una profunda desilusión personal. Su vida dará un giro inesperado al rescatar a un pingüino cubierto de petróleo, quien termina siendo su maestro, amigo y quien acercará al profesor a sus alumnos y a una mayor empatía CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 3 estrellas Min 52: "13 días 13 noches" Intenso y eficaz thriller político-bélico dirigido por Martin Bourboulon (Festival de Cannes 2025, fuera de competición) La adaptación se basa en la autobiografía del comandante francés Mohamed Bida, encargado de coordinar la evacuación de la embajada de Francia en Kabul durante la caída de la ciudad en agosto de 2021. CALIFICACIÓN EDC: 4 estrellas Min 55: LA BSO DEL VERANO, CON ÁNGEL LUQUE Hoy sin tiempo para nuestra sección clásica de bandas sonoras,le hemos pedido a Angel Luque que elija cuál ha sido, según su paladar musical, la mejor banda sonora del verano. ¿Será un pájaro, un avión, un fantástico, un dinosaurio o una joya independiente? Te sacamos de dudas en la guinda del pastel, en el tramo final de este 9x01 de Estamos de Cine, que se viste de largo para vivir la que esperamos sea una gran temporada de radio y de cine.

The actors portray Tony Smurl and Judy Warren, a real-life couple who moved into a duplex in West Pittston, Pennsylvania, only to face a series of escalating paranormal events: foul odors, slamming doors, dragged furniture, phantom voices, unexplained bruises—and something far more sinister lurking in the shadows. Hardy and Tomlinson share what it was like to speak directly with the real Tony and Judy, and how those conversations shaped their performances. They reflect on stepping into the emotionally charged world of the Conjuring franchise, working alongside horror legends Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, and collaborating with director Michael Chaves, whose joyful energy helped balance the darkness of the story.

In this episode of Horror Hour with the Hanna's, we turn our attention to The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (2021), the third entry in the core Conjuring franchise—and perhaps its most divisive. Departing from haunted house tropes and moving into courtroom drama territory, this installment dramatizes the real-life 1981 trial of Arne Cheyenne Johnson, who claimed demonic possession as his defense for murder. We examine the film's shift in tone, its blend of true crime and supernatural horror, and whether that mix delivers the tension and terror fans expect. While Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga once again shine as Ed and Lorraine Warren, we ask: does the mystery keep us invested, or does the film lose momentum once it steps outside the haunted walls? Join us as we discuss the highs, the lows, and whether The Devil Made Me Do It proves the franchise still has spiritual life—or is starting to feel a little… possessed by formula. This week we are joined by friend of the show Sara of Paranormal in Pennsylvania fame.
