Making Me Watch Movies
There’s a new gold standard in film criticism, and it’s three guys with microphones and absolutely no credentials.
Jake is a connoisseur of Asian cinema and films that remind you what it means to be human. Matt prefers movies about deeply disturbed people—the kind that leave you wanting to take a long, scalding shower. And Anthony? He loves "basic" movies, the kind that make you feel like a red-blooded, flag-waving American.
Together, they curate the most eclectic, unpredictable, and undeniably superior film library (which, to this day, has never repeated a director—because we have taste). Each episode, they force-feed you cinematic greatness and then aggressively debate whether the movie was actually worth your time.

Making Me Watch Movies - Halloween Special: The Paranormal Activity Saga (2007-2021)
It's that time of year again! In this Halloween Special of Making Me Watch Movies, your demonic hosts dive into the ultimate supernatural binge: the entire Paranormal Activity franchise. Starting with Oren Peli’s 2007 original, a low-budget nightmare that redefined horror, we follow every chilling chapter up to Next of Kin in 2021, exploring the scares that haunted audiences for over a decade.
We'll tackle memorable moments like the infamous bedroom scenes, the nerve-wracking Kinect setups, and the "found footage within found footage" ...We debate the effectiveness of each film's scares, the franchise’s unique impact on the found footage genre, and whether Next of Kin served as a fitting conclusion—or left us wanting more.
Brace yourself for chills, thrills, and plenty of laughs as we rank the jump scares, analyze the franchise’s wild continuity, and unpack the genius (or madness) of Oren Peli's groundbreaking vision that started it all.
