I had an absolute blast sitting down with Reno Wilson, Dylan Playfair, and Jackson Pace to talk about Above the Line. I’m a huge fan of all three guys, so getting to talk shop with them about this film felt like a genuine moment. Reno is out here killing it in Dexter: Original Sin, and I will always stand by the fact that Fatal Attraction deserved way more love.

There are documentaries that celebrate a film, and then there is Children of the Wicker Man, which quietly dismantles one while trying to understand the man behind it. Justin and Dominic Hardy do not approach their father’s legacy with the usual reverence reserved for cult classics. Instead, they dig through it, sit with it, and at times push back against it.

What starts as a conversation about a horror movie quickly turns into something a lot more personal, a lot more honest, and honestly, a lot more powerful than you might be prepared for going in. And that tracks perfectly with Shadows of Willow Cabin, Fria’s feature debut that blends supernatural horror with something far more unsettling: real human trauma. Fria did not set out just to make a horror film.

Spending time talking with Alec Bonk and George Fearing, it becomes immediately clear that Blind Cop 2 is not just a weird idea that somehow worked. It is the result of a very specific mindset, one that treats even the most absurd concept like it matters. That approach is what gives the film its strange balance of over-the-top humor and genuine emotional weight, and hearing them break it down only reinforces how intentional all of it really was.

What can you really say about David Morse that has not already been said? The man is one of the best in the game, plain and simple. From The Green Mile to The Rock, Contact, and The Hurt Locker, Morse has quietly built one of the most respected careers in film. He does not just show up; he elevates everything he is in.

Joe Taslim has built a career on intensity. Whether he is freezing opponents as Sub-Zero or cracking bones in The Raid, there is always a sense that he is operating on a different physical and emotional level than everyone else on screen. With The Furious, he taps into something a little more grounded, a little more human, and honestly, a little more dangerous because of it.

Kenji Tanigaki is one of those names that action fans know, even if they do not always realize it. The choreography, the impact, the way every hit feels like it matters. It has been there for decades. From Fist of Legend to Snake Eyes to Twilight of the Warriors, his fingerprints are all over modern action cinema.

There is always a moment when internet fame either fades or evolves. For Gina Lynn, it is clear she chose evolution. Most people first met her as the Chick-fil-A Sauce Girl, a viral flash of personality that spread across TikTok feeds almost overnight.

I’ll admit it upfront. I walked into Anxiety Club for the comics. When you hear names like Marc Maron, Joe List, Aparna Nancherla, and Baron Vaughn, it’s easy to assume you’re in for a certain kind of ride.

Going into my conversation with Josh and Rebecca Tickell, I did not know exactly what to expect. A documentary about soil does not exactly scream must watch. And yet, by the end of it, I found myself completely locked in.
