Feardotcom? More like Feardotbomb! Sorry folks, if you were looking for a genuinely good movie, what are you doing tuning into this podcast?! We joke, we kid! Check out our first spooky movie selection, a Stephen Dorff led thriller that makes almost no sense. We’ve got Natascha McElhone, Stephen Rea, and Udor Kier who can frankly do nothing to save this story, but Jane and Brandon have a ball unpacking the wild choices made by the director, William Malone, and how the technology from 2002 makes no sense in a 2025 world. Press play to get spooked, laugh a ton, and get lost in the tangents.

Woofy, set, go! This week, Jane and Brandon tackle the gritty legal drama that deigns to ask all too prescient questions like, who can claim full custody of a clown-cum-basketball playing dog? Think Kramer Vs Kramer, but Meryl Streep and Dustin Hoffman are locked in a broom closet somewhere and there’s a dog playing both their parts and the script is a lot worse. This one is gonna make you laugh, cry, and ask yourself, “would I be brave enough to let my dog shoot hoops with the local ramshackle junior high school basketball team?” Listeners, we present to you our coverage of 1997’s Air Bud!

This week, Brandon and Jane tackle the a movie that asked the question, how many Michael Keatons does it take to screw an Andie McDowell and then dared to answer it. But seriously, Keaton’s been duplicated through the magic of mid-nineties movie science and we’ve got way more questions than answers. It’s 1996’s Multiplicity!

From Justin to Kelly

From Justin to Kelly was a mistake. Everyone knew it before production started. Kelly Clarkson begged not to do it. Justin Guarini lives with regret. So clearly, Jane and Brandon had to watch this early aughts treasure trove. Even though they were both huge American Idol stans, this is a movie they both missed. Which, after viewing, they both kind of wished they kept it that way. Join us for the hilarity as we pick apart this classic flop.

This week Brandon and Jane take on 1993's Leprechaun! This spooky ooky pick has it all: an Ewok, a pre-fame Jennifer Aniston, and a script with a plot so thin if you blow in its general direction it will disintegrate. But if you haven't noticed, that's how we like 'em round these parts!

What would you do if some random guy was in your Airbnb when you showed up late at night after driving a long distance? Furthermore, what would you do if that man was Bill Skarsgard, ya know the clown from Stephen King’s IT? If your answer is: I would simply leave and find other accommodations, then this movie will have you screaming at your television. There's a plethora of moments that will leave you wondering “why would you do that?!” Join Jane and Brandon as they discuss red flags in men, Justin Long expertly playing an asshole, and what it all means when a man writes a movie about a woman making interesting choices. It’s a deeper chat than we were expecting for a movie that features a barbarian force breast feeding one of Hollywood’s greatest.
