“If it’s Exorcist: The Beginning… let’s get some background on Pazuzu! What’s he up to? What was his deal?” - Steve  On this episode, the 2023 Halloween Spooktacular continues with a convo about the stunningly terrible prequel Exorcist: The Beginning! How bad are all these CGI landscapes? Why did they think an Exorcist film needed so many extreme gore-hound moments? Was that side-boob necessary?

“How is adding Kelsey Grammer to this a thing at all?” - Eric On this week’s episode, the guys are dodging CGI explosions left and right as they talk about the total wet fart of an action film, The Expendables 3! Why couldn’t they budget for some actual explosions? Why didn’t this wind up being more of a Wesley Snipes movie? Why did the writers think this movie needed all the Expendables Jr. characters?

On this week’s episode, the guys are chatting about the Robert Rodriguez sci-fi teen horror film, The Faculty! Has another movie ever done so little with such a solid cast?
