There are challenges and rewards to watching Lee Chang-dong’s Possible Love, the director’s follow-up to 2018’s Oscar-nominated Burning. The rewards come from the film itself, which deftly explores the exploitation of Korea’s working class as an issue of capitalism and class. The challenges come with the platform: can you give Lee’s deliberately-paced, nearly three-hour film the attention it deserves via Netflix? Matt and Jordan found themselves on opposite ends of the challenge/reward spectrum. Plus, streaming recommendations for films like Possible Love; a listener request for films about losing bodily autonomy (like this year’s Obsession); and Producer Sam hosts the most intricate movie game in SVU’s short history. Intro (00:00:00–00:02:05) Possible Love (00:02:06–0:33:40) Rec Seg! (0:33:41–00:48:14) Listener Request Seg!

With Godzilla Minus Zero coming to theaters this weekend, Matt and Jordan took it upon themselves to brush up on the “King of the Monsters.” Helping them out is guest Aaron Neuwirth, co-host of the 2 Black Guys Talk Godzilla podcast. Between them, they recommend five Godzilla titles that are available to stream. Plus, a listener request for whimsical - but still informative! - documentaries. And Matt hosts this week’s game: Letterboxd-ing — Roland With the Punches Edition.

For the final episode in Spook-tober, Jordan and Matt share the defining scares of their childhoods and respond to listener requests for campy and creeping dread horror movies. And then — the horror! — Jordan takes a turn hosting America’s fastest growing game show: Portmanteau-To-Toe.

From none of the people who brought you Barbie comes a new film inspired by (or mandated by?) the Mattel corporation. It’s Matchbox: The Movie! And it stinks. But in what ways exactly does it stink? The answers may surprise you. Matt and Jordan discuss. Plus, Jordan’s thoughts on the conclusion of Prime Video’s Carrie limited series, which was reviewed on last week’s show; a Rec Seg featuring titles — one adapted from a video game, the other from a toy — that fare better than Matchbox; a listener request for slow-burn horror movies; and the return of Portmanteau-to-Toe: a Movie Trivia Game. Intro / Carrie recap (00:00:00–00:08:41) Matchbox: The Movie (Apple TV) (00:08:42–00:33:42) Rec Seg!

Stephen King’s Carrie has been adapted for film twice, has endured a sequel and even a Broadway musical, and now Mike Flanagan has brought the writer’s debut novel to the small screen in a limited series for Prime Video. Flanagan is a peerless adapter of King’s work, but does any version of Carrie need to be eight hours? Matt and Jordan discuss. In the Rec Seg, recommendations for a classic of ‘70s German cinema and an underseen King adaptation from the ‘90s. Plus, a listener writes in for some under-the-radar horror comedies, and Producer Sam hosts a King-themed movie game. Intro (00:00:00–00:02:26) Carrie (Prime Video) (00:02:27–00:31:45) Rec Seg! (00:31:46–00:50:55) Listener Req Seg!

For the first show of Scare-tober, Jordan and Matt take a look at the Shudder Original Goody Goody, a low-budget home-birth horror tale from first-time feature director Raymond Creamer. For a seasonally appropriate streaming watch, you could do worse. You could also do better, which is why Matt and Jordan use this week’s “Rec Seg” to suggest a couple of titles inspired by Goody Goody — one which exploits the very real horror of childbirth for laughs, and another which brilliantly captures the horror of being the only one who knows something terrible has happened. Then, listener Matt (no relation to host Matt) writes in asking for an entry-level horror film for his 9-year-old. And Matt hosts another round of Portmanteau-to-Toe for this week’s game Intro (00:00:00–00:04:32) Goody Goody (00:04:33–00:22:03) Rec Seg! (00:22:04–00:36:55) Listener Req Seg!

Starring Russell Crowe and an all-grown-up Jacob Tremblay (“Room” “”Wonder”), Netflix’s Unabomber was a promising title on the fall streaming slate. Unfortunately, director Janus Metz’s exploitative biopic about the notorious domestic terrorist (and manifesto author) comes up well short of expectations. But Matt and Jordan use the film as an excuse to recommend a couple of films as alternatives—one, an underseen, decade-old indie about a controversial mid-20th century social scientist; the other a stone-cold classic from the ‘90s. Plus, a listener request for contemporary films that look like the period in which they take place. And a ‘90s crime thriller game hosted by Jordan. Intro / Blumhouse Cheetos (00:00:00–00:07:44) Unabomber (00:07:45–00:32:46) Rec Seg! (00:32:47–00:51:27) Listener Req Seg!

The new Netflix comedy Best of the Best introduced Matt and Jordan to the world of collegiate competitive Bollywood dance, and they left converts: to the dancing, to stars Maitreyi Ramakrishnan and Priyanka Kedia, and to director Lena Khan’s winning movie (which has a joke-filled script written by comedian Hassan Minhaj and writing partner Prashanth Venkataramanujam). In the Best of the Best-inspired Rec Seg, Matt and Jordan recommend an entry-level Bollywood classic and an obscure NYC-set dance movie. And then it’s a pair of single-setting (“bottle”) movies for listener Steven. And Producer Sam hosts a “Let’s Dance!” round of trivia. Intro (00:00:00–00:02:28) Best of the Best (00:02:29–00:20:55) Rec Seg! (00:20:56–00:36:45) Listener Req Seg! “Bottle Movies” (00:36:46–00:52:14) Game: Let’s Dance!
