Welcome to the Binge Buddies Holiday Special — where instead of watching one wholesome Christmas movie together like normal people, we each locked ourselves into separate Dickensian dimensions. Bryan Dressel went full heart and felt with The Muppet Christmas Carol, embracing Michael Caine’s Oscar-worthy seriousness opposite a frog and a rat. It’s warm. It’s musical. It’s probably the most…
Welcome back to Binge Buddies: Off the (Chain)Saw — the Season Finale. We’ve driven the dusty backroads. We’ve argued about timelines that make no earthly sense. We’ve watched the saw stall, reboot, go 3D, get sympathetic, and absolutely lose its mind. And now? It’s time to carve this franchise up for good. Bryan, Zombie Dog, Joel, and Ryan are closing out the entire Texas Chainsaw saga the only…
Welcome back to Binge Buddies: Off the (Chain)Saw.

Welcome back to Binge Buddies: Off the (Chain)Saw. Episode 6 takes us to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006) — because if there’s one thing Hollywood believes in, it’s explaining absolutely everything.

Welcome back to Binge Buddies: Off the (Chain)Saw. Episode 5 drags us into the 2000s with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003) — because nothing says “new millennium” like grime, jump scares, and aggressively early-2000s lighting. Bryan, Zombie Dog, Joel, and Ryan tackle the remake that polished the dirt, amped up the brutality, and gave Leatherface a gym membership. It’s slicker. It’s meaner. It’s…
Welcome back to Binge Buddies: Off the (Chain)Saw. This week we dive into The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation — the sequel that looked at continuity, logic, and restraint… and politely showed them the door.
