They discuss various films, series, and even podcasts that feature cursed artifacts, from 'The Ring' to 'The Magnus Archives.' They also chat about loads of new releases and trailers, including a less than timely review of Smile 2, an introduction to the debut DCU James Gunn  animated outing  'Creature Commandos,' and the new show 'Black Doves.' Lastly, they speculate on the upcoming Apple TV movie, 'The Gorge,' starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Miles Teller.
