Hey Cannon Cruisers fans! This week we’re checking out Jimmy and Stiggs (2025), an independent sci-fi horror thriller written, directed by, and starring Joe Begos, also known for VFW. Set almost entirely in a single apartment, the film follows a self-destructive filmmaker who believes he’s been abducted by aliens and pulls an estranged friend back into his life just as reality begins to fracture.
Join JD and Randy as they break down the film’s claustrophobic structure, extreme practical gore, and unreliable first-person perspective. We discuss the heavy use of colour, sensory overload, substance abuse themes, and the ambiguity surrounding what actually happened. Tune in to hear why this intense, minimalist horror film sparks debate and lingers long after the credits roll.
