Show Notes

“Just tell me there’s an alien ship that’s putting time juice in them…” - Eric On this week’s episode, the 2026 Listener Request Month comes to a close with a chat about the Andrew Niccol sci-fi head-scratcher, In Time! Would this make more sense if they were robots? How about vampires? Should this just have been a vampire movie? Why is everyone in this movie driving a classic car? Should this film have just followed Cillian Murphy’s character around? Is Timberlake an action lead? And what in the world is going on with all the Time Arm Wrestling? PLUS: The time detectives raid the house of the old lady from The Fugitive! In Time stars Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Olivia Wilde, Shiloh Oostwald, Johnny Galecki, Ray Santiago, Matt Bomer, Zuleyka Silver, Laura Ashley Samuels, Alex Pettyfer, and Cillian Murphy as Raymond Leon; directed by Andrew Niccol.

“This is an ‘I Got It By the Way’ situation” - Steve The 2026 Halloween Spooktacular continues this week as we’re chatting about the better-than-the-original sequel, Child’s Play 2! How hilarious is it that this toy company insists on rebuilding the cursed doll to calm their shareholders? Why do these foster parents have so much terrifying clown stuff and breakable antiques in their home? Does Chucky have the strength of a man or the strength of a cursed doll? How much funnier is this one than the first? And has our society hidden a bygone era from us, where clowns were allowed to walk around and participate in society like it was totally normal? PLUS: A long jag on those gross airplane bottles of Fireball! Child’s Play 2 stars Alex Vincent, Jenny Agutter, Gerrit Graham, Christine Elise, Grace Zabriskie, Peter Haskell, Beth Grant, Greg Germann, and Brad Dourif as the voice of Chucky; directed by John Lafia.

“Oh, they’re not doing re-shoots here…” - Andrew On this week’s episode, the 2026 Halloween Spooktacular is just getting warmed up as we break down one of our all-time slasher faves, Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives! How hilarious is this cold open with Tommy Jarvis and Horshack from Welcome Back Kotter? Is there another stunt in this franchise that comes close to the awesome RV flip in this movie? Is this the funniest Friday the 13th script? Has there been a better pop song used in these movies than Alice Cooper’s “He’s Back (The Man Behind the Mask)” that we get at the end credits here? Is that cemetery groundskeeper a fart head? And how about that sheriff’s murder, huh? PLUS: Apparently Thom Mathews and James Karen corresponded with one another long after The Return of the Living Dead kick-started their friendship! Friday the 13th VI: Jason Lives stars Thom Mathews, Jennifer Cooke, David Karen, C.J. Graham, Kerry Noonan, Renée Jones, Tom Fridley, Darcy DeMoss, Vincent Guastaferro, Tony Goldwyn, Nancy McLoughlin, Alan Blumenfeld, Matthew Faison, Ann Ryerson, Whitney Rydbeck, and the late Ron Palillo as Allen Hawes; directed by Tom McLoughlin.

On the fall premiere of On-Screen Live, we're breaking down a great number of films we caught at this year's New York Film Festival! The NYFF64 lineup is a great place to turn when clocking what good-to-great films are coming down the pike toward the end of this year, or into early next. On this episode, we're giving our thoughts on films like James Gray's masterful, '80s-set, New Yawk crime drama, Paper Tiger; the documentary that's rocking the film world and beyond, a jarring non-fiction title that is meeting the moment, NAZA; Werner Herzog's funny, sweet, oddball return to narrative filmmaking, the excellently-titled, Bucking Fastard; William Greaves and David Greaves's miracle of documentary cinema, the absolutely stunning Once Upon a Time in Harlem; Andor's Tony Gilroy's return to the director's chair after 14 years, the wild Pedro Pascal classical cellist drama, Behemoth!; and much, much more! On-Screen Live is our industry business and current release show where we chat about box office, react to new trailers, and review recent film and television that we catch! It airs live on our YouTube channel select Mondays at noon/eastern. Subscribe to our channel to be notified the next time we're scheduled to go live!
