Raised By Video

A guy fights beavers for an hour and forty-five minutes—and it’s utterly amazing. This week on the free feed, the Doggett brothers dive headfirst into the absurd, brilliant chaos that is Hundreds of Beavers . It’s as if Buster Keaton got together with Adult Swim and a video game developer — and they all dropped acid to come up with this idea. This low-budget, high-chaos, modern cult masterpiece ge...

We’ve all been there before. You get invited to a billionaire’s private island, have a few drinks, a few laughs, but then things start getting weird … and not in a good way. If you haven’t experienced this, then count yourself lucky. It’s the subject of this Patron-only episode in which we review Blink Twice , a 2024 thriller that is (mostly) masterfully done and a lot of fun. We’re happy to see C...

What do an acid bath, too much CGI, and an awkward dance number have in common? They’re all a part of our average weekend. Oh, wait, no — they’re all in the third (and hopefully last) Venom movie. In this Raised By Video episode, we heroically endure the final installment of the trilogy nobody asked for. While there are a few laughs to be had and some fun action sequences, overall this movie is ab...

Buckle up for a hilarious horror movie review sample as the Doggett brothers dissect Chris Nash's ambitious indie horror experiment, In a Violent Nature . This 2024 slasher tries to breathe new life into a genre that's been stabbed more times than a camp counselor, but the brothers are split on whether it actually pulls it off. Between the genuinely inventive kills and impressive cinematography, t...

This week, the Doggett brothers tackle Warren Beatty's ludicrous Dick Tracy , where Hollywood legends get deliciously weird in ways you've never seen before. This 1990 comic adaptation is a masterclass in makeup artistry and prosthetics that transforms an all-star cast into grotesque works of art. The film's relentless pace never lets up, creating a frenetic energy that captures the spirit of its...

In this teaser, Matt finds himself outnumbered three-to-one as Drew, Dan, and Stew gang up on him for daring to have the audacity of being right about Smile 2. While Matt remains the superior Doggett brother (and definitely NOT the one crafting these descriptions), the family drama makes for prime entertainment. Despite (or because of) the brotherly feud playing out in this episode, we have an exc...

Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to try not to laugh while listening to this Raised By Video episode on Tom Cruise’s 2023 blockbuster. The Doggett brothers bring the humor — and do our own stunts — as we analyze this fun but far-from-perfect Mission Impossible movie. From the insane set pieces and the not-at-all-subtle sexual overtones, to the evil all-knowing AI villain and one of...

The Doggett brothers are at odds over I Saw the TV Glow , a high-concept, low-budget, maybe-too-smart-for-its-own-good A24 film. The director definitely had a vision—whether that vision made it onto the screen or just stayed trapped in a malfunctioning TV is up for debate. And yes, we debate it. This teaser dives into a film that’s packed with 90s nostalgia, uses special effects to great … effect,...

In this week’s free Raised By Video episode, we awkwardly laugh our way through a review of Joker: Folie à Deux , also known by its less stupid name, Joker 2. We ponder just how much Todd Phillips was sniffing his own farts when he decided to make this train wreck of a movie. But this sequel isn’t just the butt of our jokes. We find a couple of things that we like about it, too. Or we at least try...

The Doggett brothers are back—and in this teaser, we’re diving into our very first review of a Clint Eastwood flick. That’s right, the legend himself is back behind the camera with Juror #2 , a courtroom thriller that’s got drama, moral dilemmas, and just enough ridiculousness for us to tear into. But there’s plenty to enjoy about this movie, including the always-amazing Toni Collette, some stando...

In this Raised By Video episode, the Doggett brothers discuss Nicolas Cage’s first-ever western. In The Old Way , Cage plays a retired mercenary who is pulled back into his old ways by a tragedy. His young daughter tags along as they seek revenge. We can’t help but compare this film to much better westerns, like Unforgiven , but we have a lot of fun discussing this one. There is talk of ninja cowb...

Wake up! It’s time for this week’s Patron-only episode teaser. This time, we Doggett brothers are wishing we saw Nicolas Cage in our dreams every night because that’s the premise of this bizarre and uniquely refreshing movie, Dream Scenario . We joke our way through this A24 film while trying to get to the bottom of what it’s trying to say. And, of course, we have plenty of laughs about the scene...

In this Raised By Video episode, we’re paying a visit to the director everyone either loves or hates: M. Night Shyamalan. This film, The Visit , is a gem for many reasons, not all of them good. The Doggett brothers discuss the convoluted plot, the strange directorial choices, and even some behind-the-scenes trivia that explains why this film is the way it is. Plus, we ponder why M. Night seems to...

In this Raised By Video episode teaser, the Doggett brothers light the fuse on controversial indie thriller How to Blow Up a Pipeline . Fortunately, when this bomb goes off, it sends vulgar jokes, ridiculous riffs, and a bit of genuine film discussion everywhere. Since this movie deals with the topic of climate change, we also do our level best to make the approaching apocalypse funny. So strap in...

This Raised By Video podcast episode will send you into a steroid-induced frenzy as the Doggett brothers discuss the 2024 thriller film Love Lies Bleeding . We delve into Kristen Stewart’s performance, Katy O’Brian’s dreamy muscles, and new uses of protein shakes we had never dreamed of before. Plus, we have a lot to say about Ed Harris’s hair in this movie... Listen now to give your abs a laugh-w...

In this knee-breaker of an episode, we’re discussing the Oscar-worthy movie I, Tonya , based on the true story of a highly talented redneck figure skater who was surrounded by idiotic buffoons in the early 90s. Speaking of buffoons, we Doggett brothers bring our own sweet brand of idiocy to this episode, making for a ton of laughs, some soulful introspection, and a whole lot of ugly-crying. Enjoy!...

In this Patron-only episode, the Doggett brothers slap each other silly while discussing the 2023 indie slasher Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey. This low-budget horror film is as baffling as it is hilarious -- for all the wrong reasons. We're loaded for bear in this episode, and the jokes flow like bloody honey, so don't miss it! Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey was produced, directed, written, a...

On this week’s free episode, the Doggett brothers birth younger versions of ourselves out of our backs to bring you a heinous discussion about the 2024 body-horror film The Substance. This gem has us not wanting to eat food or have sex ever again ... for about ten minutes. Listen now for plenty of laughs and some insightful revelations. The Substance stars Demi Moore, Margaret Qualley, Dennis Quai...

In this Patron-only episode, the Doggett brothers review a movie about how God's children are for sale. Or are not for sale. I forget which.
