194. Weapons (2025)

Assemble your courage and questionable life choices - and that's just to see our faces in 4K HD! DL’s finally gets his wish, as Tommy is up to date on Pierce Brown's Light Bringer (we have 🌶️ takes), while Drey also finished the Wheel of Time first book. Then it’s onto Weapons (2025) - Zach Cregger’s follow-up to Barbarian, and let’s just say... things escalate quickly.

SPOILERS !!: (1:09:07) !! END SPOILERS !!: (1:21:18) Trivia True or False: (1:22:07) Wrap Up: (1:26:13) Main Topic: Weapons is a fractured nightmare stitched together from suburban paranoia, internet-age folklore, and the kind of vibes you get when someone asks, “Did you hear a noise?” but never turns the lights on. Think 'The Witches' meets 'Sinister' via Reddit rabbit hole. The film explores interconnected stories unraveling after a disturbing small-town incident, asking: what if your trauma had Wi-Fi? DL’s intrigued. Tommy’s uncomfortable - and that’s a compliment. Is Weapons another indie-horror classic, or just Barbarian’s weird cousin who won’t stop talking about symbolism?
