It's that time of year again, so put out the pumpkin and set out the candy and start up Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers! We begin this story right where we left off of the last, well... not right, right where we left off because they retconned a bunch of stuff from 4, but it's still an enjoyable flick! Don't believe us? Watch for yourself…

Each year, every Halloween, We aim to create at least one film that's both fun and scary, essentially flipping the genre on its head. Let us know if we succeeded with The Final Girls! "The Final Girls," a 2015 American comedy slasher film, was directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson and penned by M.A. Fortin and Joshua John Miller. Starring Taissa Farmig…

End of our body horror month and ready to jump into our horror horror month! But what a way to end it with one of the OG body horror films... Eraserhead. A really weird one folks, by the director of Twin Peaks, David Lynch. Enjoy! Music: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want Coffee Affiliate Link: https://www.bonescoffee.com/?rfsn=7465114…

First of all, while trying to find somewhat a theme for this month, a bit of sci-fi and a bit of horror, I guess we landed on the side of body horror month! With this film being the pinnacle of that, Titane, a French film which I will say will not soon be forgotten! I also want to add the fact the synopsis of the film is incredibly misleading! Musi…

Episode 250!! And with every milestone we usually do a banger! This time however we present you a film review on a filmmaker that's quite... underappreciated and nuanced, Close Encounters of the Third Kind is the film and Steven Spielberg is the director!

Music: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want …

"Tauntingly flirtatious scenes between Ms. Ryder and Ms. Weaver give this film a sexual boldness that the others' action-adventure spirit lacked."-The New York Times If the review above from The New York Times does not persuade you to watch this film, then believe me buddy... nothing will. Music: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want Coff…

Last episode of A24 month! And boy oh boy we're leaving you with a banger! The Lobster is definitely one of those films I saw the trailer too and said to myself, very interesting but never seen it! In the early days of A24 The Lobster was born and it's AMAZING!!! Hope you enjoy the episode as much as we had recording it! Music: https://jessejacetho…

August is more than halfway done now and sadly that means A24 August is going bye bye, however before we leave we want to bring you a very strange film, Under the Silve Lake (2019) starring Andew Garfield is his most unlikeable role yet!

Another third in a trilogy that is the best within said trilogy and you could also view this film as the third Garfield Spider-Man and the fourth Maguire Spider-Man, or don't. Hopefully those come in some form too! Enjoy our review of Spider-Man: No Way Home Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want 10% off Bones Coffee Order @ http…

Summer is a year of blockbusters! And trilogies, so what better way to celebrate summer than giving you, arguably the best, Indiana Jones, The Last Crusade! If you don't think it's the best Indie, well... lets fight about it! Certainly better than the most recent two! Bones Coffee Company: https://www.bonescoffee.com/?rfsn=7465114.9ec59d Discount C…

A perfect mawiage between fantasy and adventure! A film remembered by most but parts of it forgotten, and in this case for the I Finally Watched boys... a lot of parts!

Join us this week as we discuss this staple in 1999 sport movie repertoire! Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want…

Enthralling from start to finish and probably one of the more popular and successful films we've reviewed here at I Finally Watched... Its creepy though and a very well paced thriller... if you want to call it that. Join us as we enjoy The Talented Mr. Ripley! Oh! and yes, Jude Law is very attractive... Website: www.ifinallywatchedpodcast.com Music…

She's All That (1999) is a wild ride and from we can tell, the pinnacle film of the 90s. With that, the circle is complete, or as complete as we'd like it for this month, but don't worry folks our dive into 1999 films do not stop here! Stay tuned! For our weekly update!! Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want…

Reviewing Varsity Blues directly after our review of Cruel Intentions feels like we're putting together Voltron for Not Another Teen Movie, would be a shame if we didn't round it out with the main film from the parody film... "I don't want... your life" Music by: https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want…

I can't tell you how many pop cultural references I now understand thanks to watching Cruel Intentions! I gotta tell ya though, this movie is kinda hard to get through, with the incest and assault and downright crimes committed in this film, however it is a staple of '99 and at times pretty entertaining! Also, the cast really move this a long ways …

Brendan Fraser Revival... or is it renaissance? Whatever you want to call it dude is back!! And Blast from the Past has to be one of his most underrated films, but oh boy is it a gem! We loved it and hope you love listening to us love it! What is your favorite Brendan Fraser film? Enjoy! Music by; https://jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com/album/want Web…

Margin Call is like a low budget The Big Short, but it might be better?? Listen and find out with our friend and guest for this episode Gharrett back for his 4th time here at IFW!!!

David's first time watching this film and absolutely falling in love with it just as fast as Alain did when he watched it! Mu…

Apparently on the list of red flag favorite films, The Boondock Saints rank pretty high up! Now we are not saying this movie is our favorite movie and there might be crimes against humanity in this film, HOWEVER this movie is wildly entertaining and we hope you find joy listening to us talk about this film! Enjoy! Music by: https://jessejacethomas.…

The Coen Brothers are at it again and by again I mean 24 years ago they wrote and directed this film based off the Odyssey and boy oh boy is it a ride! Such a great addition to their already impressive filmography, The Coen Bros don't miss! What was your first Coen Brothers experience, and do you seek out more of their films to this day? Let us kno…

This movie is considered a cult classic, we didn't know why... the beginning is so strong and Swayze is incredibly likeable and charming (as usual) but then we got to the end and well, let's just say it goes downhill from there, but its still a very fun film! NOW the 2024 remake of Road House... not so much! Fun, less good! Here is our review of BO…

To round out our Denzel films this month, we end with Déjà Vu. And to be honest we were reserved in this decision due to past experience, but realized we haven't actually given this film a fair chance and now we love it! Hope you feel the same about this review! Music By: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com…

Possibly one of Denzel's most famous roles, Training Day was known to us growing up as a very brutal explicit film, but now watching it in our thirties... not as gory as we once thought! Here's one of our favorites! Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.comBy ifinallywatched

An underrated and less known Denzel film for this entry, The Siege is about a war on US turf about terrorist attacks from the Middle East 3 years before 9/11. Lots of controversy surrounding this film, but very entertaining and of course Denzel is in-between some very bad people. Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website: www.ifinallywatchedpo…

Loosely based on a 1980's TV show, The Equalizer stars Denzel Washington, just like every other episode we are doing this month! Welcome to Denzel February!!

Music by: jessejacethomas.bandcamp.com Website…

As we are coming close to wrapping up Spike month, we view an underrated film of Spike's... Miracle at St. Anna (2008) Not without some flaws, this goes down as one of our favorite Spike Lee films and its one we will be recommending time and time again! Controversy, overreacting, and a comparison to Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds, you can…
