Two Asian Blokes Podcast is back for a new year and we have a new years resolution - less slop for 2026!
Well, three out of four ain't bad.
We're kicking off the year with four big reviews.
🎮 Return to Silent Hill (2026) – A new adaptation of Silent Hill 2, directed by Christophe Gans, who also helmed the 2006 Silent Hill movie. What's the worst that can happen? This movie, that's what.
🚀 Iron Lung (2026) – The indie horror film based on the cult video game by David Szymanski, crowd-funded and starring Markiplier. After briefly hitting #1 at the US box office, it mysteriously vanished from the charts. Is Iron Lung a win for indie filmmaking and YouTuber-driven cinema, or a vanity project floating in deep space?
🩸 Send Help (2026) – The latest horror film from legendary director Sam Raimi, best known for The Evil Dead. Does this new release show the signature Raimi flair, or is it a product of modern studio horror trends?
🎬 No Other Choice (2026) – A gripping Korean thriller from acclaimed filmmaker Park Chan-wook, starring Lee Byung-hun and Son Ye-jin. How does this film compare to Park Chan-wook’s previous masterpieces, and where does it rank in his filmography?
From psychological horror and cosmic dread to auteur cinema and Korean film analysis, we break it all down.
