This week we're breaking down Good Boy (2025), the seventy-thousand-dollar indie horror that out-grossed The Rock at the box office and won its golden retriever a real acting award against actual humans. We dig into whether the monster is real, why this movie is secretly a grief story, and which one of us would survive moving into a haunted family farmhouse. (Spoiler: Jessica is Todd. We're sorry, Jessica.)
