OV463 - Wolf Man (2025) & Back in Action (2025) - Guest: Nick Rogers

The Obsessive Viewer - Movie Review Podcast

This week, Nick Rogers joins me to review Leigh Whannell’s Wolf Man in a feature review and then we chat about Back in Action in a non-spoiler secondary review. We also pay tribute to David Lynch and discuss Grand Theft Hamlet. For Potpourri, Nick talks about some foreign language 2024 movies he’s catching up on and I share my first viewing thoughts on Brian De Palma’s Carlito’s Way.
