In this episode of the I Hate Critics Movie Review Podcast, we dive into a diverse lineup of films ranging from the provocative to the nostalgic. First up is Caligula: The Ultimate Cut, the notorious historical drama directed by Tinto Brass, starring Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren, and Peter O'Toole. This new cut offers a fresh perspective on the controversial classic.

Next, we discuss Skincare, a 2024 crime thriller directed by Austin Peters and starring Elizabeth Banks and Nathan Fillion. This tense and stylish film brings a gripping narrative that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

We also review Jackpot!, a 2024 action comedy directed by Paul Feig. The film stars Awkwafina and John Cena in a wild tale of a former child star who wins a $3.6 billion lottery, only to find herself targeted by a host of dangerous adversaries in a futuristic California.

Alien: Romulus, the latest installment in the iconic Alien franchise, is up next. Directed by Fede Álvarez, this 2024 sci-fi horror thriller brings us back to the terrifying world of xenomorphs with a new cast led by Cailee Spaeny and Isabela Merced. This film is set between the events of the original Alien and Aliens and promises to deliver the tension and horror fans have come to expect.

Finally, we take a trip back to the '80s with a look at Purple Rain, the 1984 romantic rock musical drama starring Prince. Directed by Albert Magnoli, this film is a showcase of Prince's immense talent, blending music, drama, and romance into a cult classic that continues to resonate today.
