Show notes

This week Dave watched writer-director Zach Cregger's latest, WEAPONS (1:45). After not being enamored of, but not disliking, BARBARIAN , Cregger's previous feature, Dave's expectations were low-ish. But now having seen this nasty, gnarly, anti-fascist screed dressed up as a horror movie, WEAPONS is likely going on his 2025 top ten list. If you can handle the legitimate scares (and blood and guts), it's a must-watch. Then Megan and Evan talk about MY MOTHER'S WEDDING (20:26), Kristin Scott Thomas' directorial debut, which she also co-wrote and stars in, along with Scarlett Johansson, Sienna Miller, and Emily Beechem as her daughters. Short version: Megan and Evan are not fans, finding it full of odd choices, drama that isn't warranted, and kink shaming played for laughs. (Buckle up, peeps.) Over on Patreon , we talk about Hayao Miyazaki's SPIRITED AWAY .
