  • EP 22 NOSFERATU: Two Girls, Two Opinions
    Jan 24 2025

    WOOOOWEEEEE, LAGOONIES! Is this the movie where two people can sit in totally different chairs on a film and stay friends?

    HELL YEAH!

    This week, we dive into Robert Eggers’ highly anticipated 2024 gothic remake, Nosferatu. Was it love, possession, or something in between? Why do we feel so differently about this film compared to public opinion? Did Eggers miss the mark, or are we just blinded by rose-colored glasses when it comes to atmospheric tales of timeless folklore? Join us as we explore what goes bump in the night, listen for that eerie pneumothorax voice, and brace ourselves for the plague of Nosferatu.

  • EP 21 PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN: No Means FUCKING No, Bro
    Jan 10 2025

    Laced with hyper-pink and gut punches that will leave you reeling, this is the revenge thriller you never see coming. This week, we’re getting into 2020’s Promising Young Woman and unpacking the subtle religious references all the way to blatant, systemic societal problems that women deal with every.single.day. Cassie’s journey may be fueled by heartbreak and loss, but man-oh-man does she provide us with the vengeful catharsis that we probably need now more than ever.

    Get ready to unravel webs of complicity, and grapple with the film's controversial ending. Join us as we explore the provocative questions "Promising Young Woman" raises about justice, forgiveness, and the prices we pay for seeking retribution.

  • EP 20 TEETH: Damn we LOVE adaptations!
    Dec 20 2024

    What if a traumatic experience revealed you had a powerful, unexpected defense mechanism—like literal teeth in your VAGINA? Chomp chomp! On this week’s episode, The Babes sink their teeth into the twisted, darkly comedic 2007 coming-of-age horror film, Teeth. Join us as we sink our chompers into this film's sharp edges by exploring themes of purity culture, the fear of female power, toxic male entitlement (UGH - don’t get us started), creepy step brothers, and so much MORE. We dissect the societal pressures on women to remain “pure” and why it’s time to reclaim that narrative. Alrighty, Lagoonies! Grab your “Sex Changes Everything” t-shirt and stay vigilant out there because this world has TEETH.
