    On this week's episode of Second Take Cinema the boys return to the work of Mr Robert Zombie with his second ever movie "The Devil's Rejects." Jamie saw this movie when he was 14 and has maintained that this is the best movie in Rob Zombie's filmography. Will he still feel that way reviewing the movie in 2026 and how will Rory react to this blood-soaked grindhouse movie?

    After a stunning start with Iron Man, the MCU hit a misstep early on with its second movie out the gate; The Incredible Hulk. Or did it? The film has a mixed reaction and the lead actor Edward Norton was famously replaced by Mark Ruffalo going forward. There also weren't any solo Hulk movies after this (so far at least) which would lead one to believe this movie sucked and so we decided to give it a second take and see how it stacks up in 2026.

    Based on the popular play and featuring a cast of massive names including Al Pacino, Alan Arkin, Jack Lemmon and Ed Harris this is a contained movie about salesman facing the chop if they can't reach the increasingly high targets set by their corporate overlords. A meditation on capitalism, desperation and toxic masculinity, does the film resonate even more now than when it was released?

    On this week's episode of Second Take Cinema we take a look back at this sci-fi classic from 1984, the film that put so many of the people involved on the map; director James Cameron as well as stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Linda Hamilton and Michael Biehn. There's been a lot of sequels since that saw Schwarzenegger's T-800 turned into an iconic action hero, but in this original movie he is the bad guy. Does it still work in 2026 now we all know Arnie as the action star?

  • The Blair Witch Project

    The Blair Witch Project
    Mar 5 2026
    This indie film was a juggernaut in the late 90s and is usually credited as being the film that first mainstreamed the "found footage" subgenre. Since release it's been a divisive movie with some audiences finding the lack of anything happening dull and a waste of time, whilst others find an oddly compelling sense of dread in the lack of any "real" events. Jamie and Rory are coming at the movie from opposite directions and discuss how they think the film plays today.

    This week we're talking about the Sandman, no not the Neil Gaiman Netflix show but Adam Sandler. It's undeniable that Sandler has built a lengthy career in Hollywood although the quality of that career is up for discussion. On today's episode Jamie and Rory discuss one of the more unique (albeit oft-forgotten) of Sander's oeuvre; 2006's Click. What begins as a very by-the-numbers Sander comedy about a man who gifted a universal remote that let's him...well, control his universe, this movie takes a SHARP turn around the middle portion of the film that transforms it into a completely different movie. Do these two halves coexist? Does one impact the other? Let's find out!
