In this episode of The Cinema Psychos Show, we’re joined by Pittsburgh filmmakers Aero Rae and Jake Hecht to unpack the chaos that is Final Destination: Bloodlines. From MRI-induced body horror to Tony Todd’s emotional farewell, we dissect how this sixth entry turns death into a Rube Goldberg cartoon — and why we might secretly love it. We dive into the franchise’s tone shift, the absurd kill setups (yes, the lawnmower and the exploding piercings), and whether this over-the-top sequel actually earns its place as one of the highest-grossing Final Destination films ever. Is Bloodlines a...

What makes Heretic (2024) one of A24’s most divisive horror films to date? In this movie review, we dive into a slow-burn thriller where Hugh Grant channels cold charisma as a philosophical villain challenging everything you believe — literally. Directed by Scott Beck and Bryan Woods (A Quiet Place), the film traps two young Mormon missionaries (Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East) in a psychological mind game that unpacks faith, control, and the seductive power of certainty. Buckle up — this one’s going to stir up some serious spiritual discomfort. NEWSLETTER and UNCUT REELS!!!!! We are...

The twist wasn’t the only betrayal… In this episode of the Cinema Psycho Show, we dig into The Village (2004), the film that marks the moment M. Night Shyamalan may have officially turned on his audience. With a nonsensical twist, stilted dialogue, and characters that act like NPCs in a period drama fever dream, The Village feels less like a film and more like M. Night yelling “You expected brilliance? Here’s a blind girl in the woods.” We dive into: Whether this movie is a deliberate act of sabotage Shyamalan’s possible contempt for his own fans Alleged plagiarism and...

What happens when a devoted fan becomes your worst nightmare? Misery (1990) isn’t just a psychological thriller — it’s a terrifyingly accurate portrait of toxic fandom, long before the age of Twitter, TikTok, and Reddit backlash. In this episode of the Cinema Psychos Show, we dive deep into Rob Reiner’s chilling adaptation of Stephen King’s novel, breaking down why Annie Wilkes might be the most disturbingly realistic villain in horror movie history. We explore the real-life inspiration behind Misery, including King’s own battle with addiction and fame, and how the film eerily...

Sometimes....Dead is Better This week, we are joined by returning guest, Anastasia Elfman to dig up the horror of Pet Sematary (1989), the unsettling Stephen King adaptation directed by Mary Lambert and starring Dale Midkiff, Denise Crosby, Fred Gwynne, and a murderous toddler you’ll never forget. They unpack what makes this film so brutally effective—especially for parents—while roasting Louis Creed for being the world’s worst doctor, husband, and homeowner. From zombie cats to Wendigo lore and that unforgettable Zelda nightmare fuel, we’re diving deep into grief, guilt, and gore....

The master of horror himself, Stephen King, steps behind the camera in 1986’s “Maximum Overdrive.” A movie where the only thing that is frightening is the behind the scenes terror caused by an unhinged writer/director amidst one of their worst bouts of substance abuse. Master of Horror he may be, but King’s tale of sentient electronics and trucks (but not cars) is one of the most boring entries into his catalog of terror. But what is it that makes this movie so terrible? Join us with special guest, Dustin Goes to Hollywood from The Silver Linings Playlist Podcast as we rev up our...

This week we are kicking off Stephen King month with his very first novel and his very first film adaptation! 1976’s Carrie directed by Brian DePalma and starring Sissy Spacek and Piper Laurie. And back with us again is our good friend and collaborator, Anastasia Elfman! For those of us who were bullied in high school, Carrie hits home illustrating how cruel and how much of a nightmare high school can be for those of us who are different and can feel like a bit of a revenge fantasy for the “weird kid”. But what is it about this tale of teenaged angst that has led us to not only still...
info_outlineThis week, after our review last week of the turducken of terrible that was Neil Breen's "Pass Thru" , we here at The Cinema Psychos Show needed a bit of a pallet cleanser. And wouldn't you know it, we got one in the form of the Justin Armaos' new release, "Bloodsucka Jones vs. The Creeping Death." A movie that serves as not only a comedic play off of blaxsploitation cinema but also zombie movies (which has our interest already peaked as we are all based in Pittsburgh: The Zombie Capital of the World). So join us this week as we take a look at the world of Bloodsucka Jones vs The Creeping Death.
