Mike talks about Austin Butler’s performance as a lead, did the movie change Mike’s perception based on the trailer and why Bad Bunny and Action Bronson stole the show. In the Trailer Park, Mike talks about Good boy. It’s a horror film told entirely from the perspective of a dog. How the internet changed the trajectory of this movie and why horror is king in 2025.
