  Night of the Living Dead (1990) (OTDCU Ranking)

  Oct 4, 20261h 18mS5

  Series 5 Episode 2 #081 It's our most efficient episode in years! Probably because we just talked about the original and this remake doesn't stray far enough from the source material. A good time was had anyway.

  Star Trek (2009) (MCU Adjacent)

  Aug 23, 20262h 11mS2

  Series 2 Episode 13 #078 We set our phasers to stun to cover J.J. Abrams' reboot of the Star Trek franchise in which the newly assembled crew of the Enterprise are harangued by lens flares whilst battling a Romulan edge-lord who has accidentally traveled back in time 150 years! [EXPLICIT] EDITOR'S NOTE: This episode was a huge pain in the ass to edit due to multiple, unrelenting technical difficulties. I shit you not, there was another 45+ minutes of recording that was cut. So if this one isn't quite up to the usual quality or there's some weird sounding edits, please know I did the best I could under the circumstances. Nick's (a.k.a.
