Episode 16: Bones and All
Watch Skip Plus
12/01/22 • 149 min
Episode 16 finds the Watch/Skip’ers (joined by Harry and Linus, the Death By DVD boys...this being their second appearance) taking a bite out of Luca Guadagnino’s cannibal love story “Bones and All’. Listen as they go intimately deep under the skin of this oddly poignant and moving reinvention of the “road trip/coming of age” story and discuss Guadagnino’s prowess as an emotional filmic artist.
Who knew a film about fine, young cannibals could inspire such a discussion about the nature of love, connection, and loneliness (PLUS along the way you might learn about film stocks, a bonus definition of the word “plus”, and a spot surprisingly deft comparison by Harry of this film to a beloved children’s book. But before all that, Harry plus’s a new piece of digital hi-techery, Linus introduces you to a UK comedian/author/actor, Justin plus’s a book about....what else? Wrestling, and Jose remembers a performer who sadly passed recently.

Watch/Skip+ BINGO is in EFFECT! (Thanks again Kevin from "Raiders of the Podcast")
The Boyz welcome back the Death By DVD guys to discuss the Fantasia Fest breakout/Shudder exclusive streaming film "Skinamarink" written and directed by short-film creator Kyle Thomas Ball. With its viral marketing and sensational pull quotes ("uniquely terrifying", "unsettling and haunting"), is its experimental nature polarizing or is this indeed THE horror event must-see? This episode streams along like you are right in the room conversing; so soak it in and listen as Harry plus's a noted and prolific Japanese director/performer, Linus supports another experimental thriller poised to hit the States soon, The Cinemasochist delivers a Bingo square review (hint: lights out...men in tights), and Cupcake plus's his new phone (#TeamPixel) and laments the current state of podcasting.

Episode 10: Halloween Ends
Watch Skip Plus
10/20/22 • 144 min
Watch/Skip+ presents THE DEFINITIVE "DISCUSSION TO END ALL DISCUSSIONS" OF HALLOWEEN ENDS!
If you listen to one breakdown of the final Halloween movie of the David Gordon Green and Blumhouse Trilogy (and we have a spoiler free section and one where we cathartically release the Kraken of spoilers and feels), you MUST get this one in your ears. The Boys are joined by the legendary Sam U. Rai from the Gentleman’s Guide to Midnite Cinema and Linus and Harry , the bi-continental hosts of the DeathByDVD podcast. Heading into all things Myers, Linus teases a streaming horror rec, Harry confesses his love for the Universal Monsters, and Sammy names his pick for “Jump Scare the Movie”. And then all proverbial hell breaks loose discussing this very divisive, polarizing, and as of this release, “much hated” sequel.
And when all is said and dissected, where each of us falls on this one will surprise you. TRICK OR TREAT!

Episode 23: M3GAN
Watch Skip Plus
01/19/23 • 136 min
It’s the first Watch/Skip+ & Death by DVD crossover of 2023! We can all thank Blumhouse for this occasion, as their new evil doll horror comedy "M3GAN" brought Harry and Linus into the embracing arms of Jose & Justin. The technophobic thriller produced a healthy discussion on the dangers of technology overload, as well as a new rating that caused a laughing fit (kept in for your enjoyment). Before getting there, Cupcake plused a film of striking similarity, while the Cinemasochist joined the guests in a first-ever super-plus to discuss a new iteration on a long-standing franchise.

Blink Twice Movie Review
Watch Skip Plus
09/01/24 • 79 min
Episode 94 Blink Twice - JUST IN TIME FOR YOUR LABOR DAY COOKOUT!!!!
Emcee and Cupcake blink twice to signal their review of....wait for it.....Blink Twice, the directorial debut of actor extraordinaire Zoe Kravitz. Starring Channing Tatum and Naomi Ackie, the film features a knockout cast of veteran and new actors (Simon Rex! Adria Arjona! Christian Slater!) and starts with an unprecedented trigger warning for the audience. Is this likely-to-be-polarizing, psychologically violent allegory for gender politics and power dynamics albeit gorgeously shot a watch or a skip?
Check us out while you max and relax by the pool or sucking on a chili dog at your cookout!
In This Episode:
- Q and Alex Icebreaker: Brunch?
- Cupcake confesses and takes on a Tik Tok challenge.
- Emcee love-40’s his new hobby/sport.
- The original working title of the film was..........
- You’ll get Emcee’s logline for Alien Romulus (we forgot last time)
- From Vogue to exploitation, is this film the reverse of Infinity Pool?

Joker: Folie à Deux Movie Review

Watch Skip Plus Episode 100: Deep Dive into Joker Folie à Deux
Join hosts Jose (aka Cupcake) and Alex (aka Emcee) as they celebrate their 100th episode with an in-depth analysis of Joker: Folie à Deux. In this milestone episode of Watch Skip Plus, they debate the film's artistic narrative style, its psychological depth, and character development, as well as its impact as a comic book sequel. The hosts engage in humorous exchanges, providing contrasting opinions and discussing the film's musical elements. Besides, they offer insights on the film industry, lifestyle tips with reviews of non-alcoholic beers, and a new Stephen King adaptation. They also ponder the future of the Joker franchise, contemplating a potential third installment with a chaotic Joker akin to the comics. This episode is a must-watch for film enthusiasts interested in detailed critiques and entertaining discussions.
Just a heads up, we are still adjusting to life on video. The recording software we are trying out couldn't render Cupcake's video, so we had to use a meeting recording that contained both audios and videos which caused some technical difficulties when attempting to mix and master. No multi-cam this week but it should be back for our next episode with some better audio as well.

Episode 77: Sasquatch Sunset
Watch Skip Plus
04/25/24 • 78 min
Grunt and scratch yourself vigorously....a new episode has dawned!
From the second Willden-beast mentioned this film on our Second Annual Sundance episode and especially after the first red band trailer went wild, the hosts of the show have been anticipating the release of the Zellner brothers’ “Sasquatch Sunset”. (Editor’s note: This is Beanie...according to my hooman only one of you was looking forward to this.) Crude and quite “out there”, it’s a year in the life of a family of Sasquatch (“Bigfoot” if you will) with no dialogue. Arty, indie fare with serious actors ape-ing their hearts out or one note vulgarity deserving of the $2 digital download sale bin? Cobb a “sasquatch” and have a listen.
But first, Cupcake reviews a new action flick from a “post-Madonna”, and Emcee talks a big sports ball event. Stick around for Q&A when the hosts talk music, invisibility, food, and directors.

Conclave Movie Review
Watch Skip Plus
11/21/24 • 99 min
Watch Skip Plus Episode 105: Conclave
YOUR PRAYERS ARE ANSWERED!!!! After a week off due to sickness, the WS+ boys have been resurrected to bring you a new episode. This week, Emcee and Cupcake take on "Conclave" from the director of Netflix's "All Quiet on the Western Front". The latter garned praise and (BAFTA/Academy/Critical) awards. Will this dramatization of the succession/election process for the world's next Pope - starring Ralph Fiennes, Stanley Tucci, John Lithgow, and Isabella Rosselini - stun viewers the same? The Boys deep-dive the stage-y, talk-y film's multifaceted themes of the dynamics of ambition and power, acceptance and diversity, and a twist that might be causing un-intended controversy over the film.
But before that, Alex and Cupcake mind-meld their plusses - each discusses ALL the films they watched while taking the week break.
GENUFLECT AND HIT PLAY!!!!
