  • Hunter Hunter is excellent

    ….discovered this show as a result of researching Hunter Hunter. Good show but the one dude totally missed the point of The Damned in his recap (The Monkey)…the reason the village was cursed is they chose NOT to save the shipwrecked people. They only went out there to collect their floating loot. I’ll forgive it this time though

  • Rambling nonsense, barely any reviews

    Look I’ve tried to enjoy this podcast and at times I have. But I cannot stand how long these guys ramble on about things that don’t pertain to the movie in the title. The last straw for me was the black phone episode. Loved the movie and was excited to hear the episode. Almost 2 hours long but really only about 25 minutes was about the black phone. That’s just unacceptable guys. At least spend an equal amount of time on the movie as you do the other nonsense. And time stamp the topics. To go ful... more
