We enjoy some socially irrelevant fun with “Re-Elected” and embrace the highly effective micro-budget chiller “Cold Blows the Wind”.
We all already know the country has an awful choice to make. When your choice is a senile old white man or a crazy old man, is there a point in even making one? The answer is yes. Re-Elected from 2020 is a horror movie that knows exactly what it is. It’s a goofy, kind of dumb, but all-around fun watch that should not be (and doesn’t want to be) taken seriously.
You would think that a movie from this era involving dead presidents would have all sorts of social commentary. However, Re-Elected does not have one thing to say about what is happening in today’s world, and it is better for it.
For starters, this is not that type of movie. It’s not that horror cannot say anything relevant; it has always been light years ahead of other genres when it comes to that. It is more about some films being all about just turning off your brain and enjoying what you see at the most visceral level.
Re-Elected is available on multiple streaming platforms, including Prime Video, Vudu Free, and Tubi.
Next, it’s time for our featured new indie horror review: Cold Blows the Wind.
Cold Blows the Wind is an awesomely named indie horror movie that constantly punches above its weight. It is a micro-budget affair that is so good that it allows anyone watching to focus on the plot and characters instead of the value of the production.
Filled with great performances and writing, even noticeable missteps do not detract from the enjoyment.
We also discuss appropriate nudity. For years now, we have discussed how today’s cinema seems to fear being sexy, erotic, or just plain naked. The rub is that, when done right, nudity can add to a film, even when it can be argued that it is not completely necessary. But necessary and appropriate are two entirely different things.
Cold Blows the Wind is available to rent now on VOD. Click here for Morbidly Beautiful’s video review.

Episode 370: Mid year recap
Time moves more quickly now than it ever has. It was not that long ago that we were talking about a new show executive produced by the Duffer brothers. About a month later, it is one and done. As someone once reminded us, we are just two guys who watch movies. Production budgets and domestic grosses are only a passing interest to us. Still, there are some things that catch our attention. Were we right to say that Michael would get to $1 billion? And what does the future hold for Obsession?
There was a major change to our humble little podcast this year. We decided it would be in our best interests to be a little more focused. To that end, we went to just covering one movie each show. Despite this, we still managed to cover twenty-three movies over seventeen episodes. And twenty of them were released in 2026.
So, what do we have to talk about? And will we get as worked up as we did last week? The horrors of high school, zombies, musicals, buff nuns, and grindhouse adjacent fun. It may not all have been good, but everything left some sort of impression on us.
