Big-screen monsters, Victorian murder myths, and one brutally effective documentary double bill - this week’s episode is packed with films that make you choose where your money is best spent.Tosin, Shaun, and Sharon compare the cinema and streaming releases you actually need to know about, from the South Korean monster thriller Hope to the new Sense and Sensibility adaptation, plus a deep look at Netflix’s Monster: The Lizzie Borden Story and the true-crime shock of Devil in the Family and Evil Influencer.You’ll discover:
- why Hope is a monster movie that keeps going long after you think it should end

- why the Ruby Franke and Jodi Hildebrandt documentaries are devastating as a paired watch
- which releases are worth cinema money and which are better left for streaming
Along the way, the hosts get into the details that matter most: the performances, the logic gaps, the visual style, the violence, the historical liberties, and the moments that made them laugh, wince, or argue back at the screen.If you like sharp, opinionated film and TV chat with real recommendations, this is essential listening. Perfect for anyone deciding what to watch next, what to skip, and where your hard-earned money will be best spent this week.
