This week, we’re reviewing Bugonia (2025), the latest from director Yorgos Lanthimos. Starring Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons, Bugonia leans hard into paranoia, power, and absurdity, following two conspiracy-minded men who kidnap a powerful CEO they believe may not be human. Listen as we break down what works, what doesn’t, and whether Lanthimos’ increasingly strange style still hits for us. Also, are Emma Stone and Jesse Plemons premiere tier actors of their generation?
