CinemaChat Podcast w/Rob & Brent…and Reggie

We're taking you back to the days of Dark Disney. For decades, this movie was difficult to find, but October 2025 sees it being added to Disney+. It has never been easier to watch.This CHILDREN'S horror/sci-fi/fantasy movie released over 40 years ago, and we've heard a lot about it. Does it live up to the horror circle hype? Does it hold up for someone that's never seen it? Let's talk about Something Wicked This Way Comes (1983).

This is October's "Patron Review". It was requested by Jonathan and he's taking us to the world of found footage. Specifically, the world of vampire found footage. Does this low budget horror flick have what it takes to get a seal of approval?  Listen to us review Afflicted (2013)!

Reggie and Brent get back together to talk about a potential Best Picture candidate (frontrunner?). In a movie with Leo, Benecio Del Toro and Sean Penn, who shines brightest? Everyone seems to think that Paul Thomas Anderson has a hit on his hands...do we agree? Let's talk about One Battle After Another (2025)

For our first episode of October, Reggie and I give you our list of the best horror movies in the 21st Century. What did we get wrong? What did we miss?

Every year, Reggie and I embark on a journey to watch 31 horror movies in 31 days during the month of October. Some years are more successful than others. This year, we hope to provide you with mini reviews of most/every movie that we watch. We will probably do this in batched solo reviews. No promises, but it should be fun.
We'd love for you to join us. Watch some horror movies and tell us what you think! There are no rules. I've created a spreadsheet of the biggest horror movies to have come since last Halloween. Feel free to utilize it. There are two tabs, but I recommend using "By service" if you're looking for something to watch! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pV3FAzHU2dAd2X82O75gFzhOGtR3YrilXpFSM9N1apw/edit?usp=sharing

Reggie and Brent are here to review our September patron request from Maff.  It's a movie that neither of us (or many people in the United States) had seen!  It's time to find out if this is another example of Daniel Radcliffe killing it after Harry Potter. Let's talk about Horns (2013).

Reggie and I couldn't sync up this week (our cycles are off), but I recorded a packed episode for you by myself. I hope you enjoy hearing about what I watched this week and what's coming out in September.
There's also some movie news! From Harry Potter and Highlander reboots to Dwayne Johnson’s wild new role and The Conjuring breaking box office records, this week’s movie news is packed with reboots, surprises, and big-screen magic.

This week’s episode was sparked by longtime patron ConstancioD, who asked a fun, behind-the-scenes question: What podcasts do we actually listen to—and why?
You’ll learn about our tastes beyond the big screen—like wrestling, scams, geek culture, comedy, and more—and what makes a podcast worth sticking with.

Reggie and Brent are here to review our August patron request from Daggerd.  It's a movie that was intended to stretch Reggie's perception of Will Ferrell, but it was actually Brent that had never seen it!  Was it worth the wait for us to review, Stranger Than Fiction (2016).

In this episode, Brent and Reggie each choose actors to discuss what they would do if they owned stock in that actor. Is the actor rising or falling in their career?  What's their trajectory?  Are you buying or selling?
