    Episode 84 | Saw (2004)

    🪚 With the Saw franchise back in full swing with the recent release of its 10th instalment (Saw X), we are going back 19 years to the humble beginnings of the film that started it all. Join us as we share our thoughts about the original Saw from writer/director team James Wan and Leigh Whannell, and explore what it is that made this little indie flick so fascinating to be able to become a full-fledged, heavy-hitting horror franchise. As always, we'll also nominate which characters we think were most deserving of death, so stick around til the end so you can help us decide.

    S02E01 - We Got An Upgrade!

    S02E01 - We Got An Upgrade!

    In the second season premiere for Strangers in the Alps, the Strangers fight for survival after the destruction of the cabin they called home for the last year by....talking about movies as always! They also discuss what they did over the summer, which movie reigned supreme and dive STEM deep into Leigh Whannell's instant cult hit, Upgrade! Starring Logan Marshall-Green and Betty Gabriel.

    "Upgrade" is currently available to stream on Amazon Prime Video!

    Set in the near-future, technology controls nearly all aspects of life. But when the world of Grey, a self-labeled technophobe, is turned upside down, his only hope for revenge is an experimental computer chip implant.

    Saw (2004): "Soo Criminal Minds Coded"

    Rise and shine, Spookies. You’re probably wondering what movie we’re about to cover. Well, I’ll tell you what it might be. It’s taken almost three years of intense planning and rigorous diorama-making, but at long last we’re ready to dip our toes into that one particular franchise. You know the one. Finally, we’re facing off against Saw (2004), the flick in which unsuspecting victims must prove how far they’d go to fight for survival. Now you, Spookies, have a chance to test your own determination and lust for life. Will you listen to the latest episode of Spooky Tuesday — or will you live to regret it? The choice is yours. We’ll be waiting.

    Episode 409: See "Saw"

    Episode 409: See "Saw"

    This week we watch the original "Saw." This movie has had a huge impact on the horror genre. Sure, the acting isn't amazing, but the ideas are big and they pay off. I feel like this movie may have been the the prime reason for the popularity of escape rooms. We pair it with Jigsaw Pinot Noir. It really just went and fell into our laps. Work smarter, not harder.

    Metacritic Score: 46/100

    Movie Sync Notes: We watch "Saw" on Amazon Prime. We start "Saw" 7:19 into the pod, and push play on part two 1:06:42 into the pod.

    The Invisible Man (2020) - Legacy of Horror

    The Invisible Man (2020) - Legacy of Horror

    Halloween is upon us, so the NeverEnding Movie Marathon is getting extra spooky all October long with three of our favorite fright fests with a long history of going bump in the night! That's right, our picks for this month's marathon are all about the lasting Legacy of Horror-- three films that reinterpret their source material to scare an all-new audience. We begin with director Leigh Whannell's pulse-pounding take on 'The Invisible Man' (2020) with Elisabeth Moss, Oliver Jackson-Cohen, Aldis Hodge, Storm Reid, and Harriet Dyer. We dig into Whannell's journey from 'Saw' to rescuing this film from the ashes of Universal's Dark Universe, how the original 1933 film starring Claude Raines pulled Universal Studios out of a financial tailspin, and a deep-dive into the special effects that made both movies see-through spectacles.

    The NeverEnding Movie Marathon is a weekly podcastic celebration of cinema. Dive deep into fan-favorite films (#NoStinkers!), thematically curated to enhance your movie viewing by hosts Matt Detisch, Alex Logan, and Michael Rocco.
