After talking about a disturbing dream involving Tom Cruise, we talk about movie franchises. There is talk of the MCU, Aliens, and Universal monsters, but what’s really on our minds is what is next for the M3gan Universe. We also share our memories on 28 Days Later and discuss the upcoming sequel.

Christmas may be the second spookiest time of year, but it is still surprising just how many holiday horror movies are out there. Just when you think you have heard about all of them, Tubi shows you there are way more than you could ever imagine. It is overwhelming. Until you see a movie called The Elf in which the titular character goes on a killing spree.

If only it were as simple as it sounded. What should be a silly holiday horror watch turns into a serious character study about….paranoia? Maybe? It is easy to say The Elf makes no sense, but that would be an insult to every nonsensical movie ever. The acting is awful, there seems to be no script, and things move painfully slow. On the plus side, there is a cool kill involving gift wrap.

We may not be card carrying members of the UFO community, but we enjoy hearing stories about extraterrestrials. The Program had promise. UFO documentaries have to contain a certain amount of sensationalism, but this one seemed like it would be a little more grounded. And there was some good stuff here. It’s unfortunate that it relied so much on old tricks.
