EP.39 Thrash, Primate and Send Help: Defending Movies that Critics Dismiss but We Love

This new episode of Terrortinos, hosts Mike and Angel make the case for movies that critics love to trash but audiences can’t help enjoying. From Thrash, Netflix’s shark-fueled disaster flick, to Primate, a ridiculously silly killer-chimp horror thriller, and Send Help, a twisted Sam Raimi survival story starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O’Brien, the guys break down why some films work, not because they’re perfect, but because they know exactly what they are.

It’s a conversation about self-aware filmmaking, guilty pleasures, and the simple joy of being entertained without overthinking it. Along the way, they swap stories, call out ridiculous tropes, and dig into what makes these kinds of movies stick... even when they probably shouldn’t.
