Make Me Watch It

Happy Devil's Night, other buckets! The Brendans plan to blow out the Halloween Season with a bang, talking haunted houses and creepy kids with 1961's The Innocents and 2021's Don't Listen . We also have a report from the Marvel's Spider-Man 2 game for PS5, book recommendations, and a chance to catch up on the Arrow ShawScope Vol. 2 coverage at ⁠Cinapse⁠ .

The Brendans are joined by our first guest: the Most Complete Podcaster in the World, the Undisputed Mike Scott of Action For Everyone.

The lads discuss what they may or may not want to make other folks watch from their recent media adventures, then move on to extolling the virtues of The Last Voyage of the Demeter (available on VOD) and Monstrum (available to stream on Shudder), and why we would or would not make you watch them.

Recorded on National Cinema Day 2023, this mini-episode / pilot teaser covers a review of the DC film Blue Beetle currently playing in theaters, as well as a suggestion for listeners to check out for the next full-length show.
