Nick and Alastair off to the movies for a scare this fortnight, with latest scifi-horror sequel Alien: Romulus and unsettling psychological media-horror I Saw The TV Glow.

But first, Nick’s finally watched recently-cancelled Star Wars show The Acolyte, while Alastair’s on the latest season of fun German spy show Kleo.

After which, they venture into the terrifying dark of space with Alien: Romulus (15:52), scattering moderate spoilers throughout. Can this latest effort finally redeem Alastair’s favourite franchise after decades of hurt?

Lastly, they sit down for some existential dread with I Saw The TV Glow (32:00), a cult hit indie movie about the horrors of media obsession and feeling uncomfortable in your own skin.

After a couple of episodes falling a little off the pace (thanks to Nick’s hectic holiday schedule), our heroes are back on the cutting edge of media with Deadpool & Wolverine and House of the Dragon season 2.

But first, yet more subversive superhero business with Supacell and The Boys season 4, because it seems there’s something in the water.

Specifically – some kind of thick fluid squeezed out from Deadpool & Wolverine (19:59), the mega-blockbuster violent super-buddy-action-comedy from Marvel.

And finally, a short break from capes, tights and gore with House of the Dragon season 2 (37:42). Well, okay, there’s still some gore.

This fortnight, due mostly to Nick’s holiday schedule, the podcast goes back to catch up on some earlier media – specifically Peacemaker Tries Hard! from DC Comics and the Netflix movie Spaceman.

But first, Nick’s also listened to new album All Hell from Los Campesinos!, while Alastair’s seen recent movie triptych Kinds of Kindness from auteur filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos.

After all that, they settle down to bring about peace through extreme violence and poo-eating with Peacemaker Tries Hard! (15:24) He really does try very hard.

Last of all, it’s Spaceman (26:19), a movie about Adam Sandler in space talking to a giant spider that dropped earlier this year. Sounds like it’s either going to be genius or a total misfire.
