Send us Fan Mail

This week our patrons have chosen for us to step aboard Iron Lung (2026)⁠. We dissect Markiplier’s self-financed bottle-movie ambition, evaluate Simon’s claustrophobic survival arc, and debate whether the film’s slow-burn pacing sharpens or softens its cosmic horror. This episode contains spoilers, beginning at 22:44.
