Xtra Butta

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan are taking it all the way back to 1960 to revisit the sci-fi horror classic Village of the Damned!

What happens when an entire village mysteriously blacks out, only for several women to suddenly become pregnant? Well, apparently you get a bunch of blonde-haired, glowing-eyed children who can read minds, control people, and make everybody's lives a living nightmare! 😂

But does this 1960 horror classic still hold up today? Are these kids actually terrifying, or are they just REALLY bad at making friends?

Join Cam and Dylan as...

Turn off the lights, grab your popcorn, and whatever you do… DON'T watch the home movies. 📼💀

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan dive into the nightmare fuel that is Sinister (2012), starring Ethan Hawke. From those absolutely terrifying Super 8 tapes to the creepy legend of Bughuul, we're breaking down everything that makes this movie so disturbing.

Is Sinister genuinely one of the scariest movies ever made? Does it still hold up over a decade later? And WHY would anyone keep watching those tapes?!

We're talking jump scares, creepy kids, questionable decisions, and everythi...

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam, Dylan, and special guest Andrew Garcia dive into one of the most anticipated movies in years: Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey. From the star-studded cast to the massive practical effects, the guys break down everything we know so far and why this could be Nolan's most ambitious film yet.

Will Nolan's signature storytelling style fit one of the greatest epics ever written? Which cast members are we most excited to see? And what scenes from Homer's legendary tale absolutely have to make it into the movie?

Whether you're a lifelong...

We made it... Episode 100!

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan are joined by special guest Andy Garcia to talk about the horror movie everyone is buzzing about: Obsession.

What would you do if you could have one wish granted?

Now imagine that wish coming true... exactly as requested.

Obsession follows Bear, a hopeless romantic who discovers the mysterious One Wish Willow and wishes for his childhood crush Nikki to love him more than anyone else in the world. At first, it seems like a dream come true. Then it becomes a nightmare. Fast. What starts...

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam & Dylan lace up the loafers, adjust the single glove, and dive headfirst into Michael the biopic that's moonwalking straight into controversy like it's got something to prove.

We're breaking down everything: the Jackson 5 days, the superstardom, the unreal level of fame… and yeah, the stuff the internet definitely won't stop arguing about. Did this movie hit the high notes, or did it just “shamone” its way past the tough conversations?

Expect chaotic energy, wild takes, and Cam & Dylan asking the questions everyone's thinking but maybe shouldn't say out loud. Plus...

Xtra Butta Presents: “Spaceballs” May the Schwartz Be With You

This week on Xtra Butta, hosts Cam & Dylan blast off into pure comedy chaos with Spaceballs the ultimate sci-fi parody that asked, “What if we made Star Wars… but completely unserious?”

We break down the madness of Lone Starr, Barf (yes… BARF), Princess Vespa, and the hilariously unhinged Dark Helmet as they race across the galaxy to stop President Skroob from literally stealing a planet's air. That's the plot and somehow it only gets more ridiculous from there.

From fourth-wall breaks to merchandising jokes that a...

This week, Cam & Dylan break down Send Help, starring chaos magnet Dylan O'Brien, Rachel Mcadams and directed by Sam Raimi.

After a plane crash leaves two co-workers stranded on a remote island, survival starts as teamwork… and quickly turns into paranoia, ration fights, and “I don't trust you with the last protein bar” energy. As rescue feels less likely, the real battle becomes psychological — how far would you go to make it out alive?

We debate who the real villain is, whether Dylan could actually lead in a crisis, and how long we'd last before complete...

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam & Dylan finally tackle the most quoted movie of all time: The Princess Bride.

You know it. You love it. You can't stop saying the lines. We break down how this movie somehow pulls off romance, action, comedy, parody, and comfort-food vibes all at once while also gaslighting an entire generation into thinking sword fights and true love are normal life skills.

We talk Westley's unmatched “as you wish” levels of devotion, Buttercup's all-time elite stress decision-making, and Inigo Montoya delivering one of the cleanest revenge arcs in cinema history (six...

Xtra Butta is back, and this time we're putting 2025 cinema on trial.

In this episode, Cam & Dylan break down the best and worst movies of 2025, from films that had us leaning forward in our seats to ones that had us checking the runtime every five minutes like it was a hostage situation.

On the good side, we're showing love to movies like Weapons, Sinners, One Battle After Another, and K‑Pop Demon Hunters — the films that understood the assignment, brought the vibes, and didn't insult our intelligence (mostly).

Then… we turn to the dark s...

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam & Dylan kick back with a hot mug of nostalgia and dive into the original holiday classic White Christmas (1954) the movie that basically invented cozy Christmas vibes.

We break down the plot, from two smooth-talking WWII vets turning showbiz partners, to a surprise trip to Vermont that's somehow colder, snow-less, and more charming than it has any right to be. Along the way, we talk about Bing Crosby's all-time legendary croon, Danny Kaye stealing scenes like it's an Olympic sport, and how this movie casually blends romance, music, comedy, and patriotism into...

This week on Xtra Butta, hosts Cam and Dylan tackle one of the most unhinged holiday movies ever made: Gremlins. What starts as a wholesome Christmas gift quickly spirals into total chaos when a cute little Mogwai named Gizmo comes with three simple rules that absolutely no one follows.

Cam and Dylan break down the full plot of Gremlins, from the snowy charm of Kingston Falls to the moment the town becomes ground zero for pint-sized monsters wreaking havoc during the holidays. They dig into the infamous rules no bright light, no water, and never feed them...

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan crack open the VHS vault and dive into the magical, chaotic, and surprisingly emotional world of 1996's Matilda the movie that made every millennial believe two things:

Reading unlocks superpowers

Your principal should never be built like a retired Olympic shot-putter.

Cam and Dylan break down the film's quirky charm, from Matilda's early genius days (reading Dickens before most of us could read our own names) to the Wormwoods the most aggressively neglectful yet hilarious parents ever portrayed on screen. Danny DeVito and Rhea Perlman...

Cam and Dylan are back in the lab spreading talking about one of Jim Carrey's most underrated chaos-fests Fun with Dick and Jane! In this episode, they dive deep into the 2005 comedy where Dick (Carrey) and his wife Jane (Téa Leoni) go from suburban comfort to full-blown heist mode after losing everything thanks to a corrupt company. It's Breaking Bad meets Office Space — but with way more mugging to the camera and less meth.

The guys break down the film's wild tone shifts, that early-2000s corporate satire energy, and the pure unhinged joy of watching Jim...

Say his name five times... or just press play once, that's safer. This week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan head straight into the honey-dripping nightmare of the 90s horror classic Candyman. They break down the story of Helen Lyle the curious grad student who clearly never heard the phrase “mind your business” as she dives into Chicago's Cabrini-Green projects and accidentally summons a hook-handed ghost with a serious grudge and a sweet tooth.

Expect talk about bees, bad decisions, and Tony Todd's legendary voice that could make an audiobook about taxes sound terrifying. The guys dig into...

Grab your chainsaws, kiss your hand goodbye, and get ready to head deep into the creepiest cabin in the woods. This week on Xtra Butta, Cam & Dylan dive face-first into Sam Raimi's cult classics: The Evil Dead (1981) and Evil Dead II (1987) — the films that turned “a weekend getaway” into “a blood-soaked nightmare with questionable life choices.”

We're talking:
Possessed trees with bad boundaries.
The Necronomicon — aka “the worst Airbnb guestbook ever.”
Bruce Campbell serving main-character energy and getting beat up by his own hand like a pro wrestler.

We'll break down both films' chaotic p...

This week on Xtra Butta, Cam & Dylan throw on their skin masks (metaphorically… we hope) and head deep into the grimy, bone-filled backroads of horror history with the OG slasher: The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974).

We're talkin' about Leatherface before he was an icon, a dinner scene straight out of your worst fever dream, and the real MVP Sally's lungs (those screams could shatter windows). From meat hooks to malfunctioning chainsaws, this low-budget nightmare changed the horror game forever all with almost zero blood. Yeah, you thought you saw gore... but Tobe Hooper fooled ya.

Al...

This week, Cam & Dylan dive into The Innocents (1961) — the gothic ghost story that proves kids are always the scariest part of any horror movie. Directed by Jack Clayton and based on Henry James's novella The Turn of the Screw, this black-and-white creepfest is so atmospheric it'll make you check your windows for Victorian orphans.

We'll talk about Deborah Kerr playing a governess who really should've swiped left on this job, how the film's use of shadows and silence still feels scarier than half the jump-scare factory movies today, and why this was considered “too intense” for 1961 audiences (spoile...

Grab your snorkels and avoid questionable swamp water, because this week Cam & Dylan are diving deep (literally) into the 1954 Universal monster classic, Creature from the Black Lagoon.

We'll break down how a rubber-suited Gill-man managed to terrify audiences in glorious black and white, while also making half of Hollywood scream, “Wait… do I kinda ship the Creature and Julie Adams?” (Spoiler: you're not alone).

Expect facts like:

The Creature suit weighed so much it was basically a portable sauna.

Ben Chapman played the Creature on land, but Ricou Browning handled the underw...

This week on Xtra Butta, we grab our popcorn (and maybe some sage) to break down Weapons—the horror-thriller from Zach Cregger that asks the question: What if your favorite teacher, your town's nicest principal, a shady cop, and a random junkie all got sucked into a supernatural mess involving missing kids and one seriously evil great-aunt?

Seventeen third graders vanish without a trace. A teacher becomes the town scapegoat. A grieving dad starts channeling Liam Neeson. Meanwhile, a heroin addict accidentally stumbles into the worst Airbnb basement of all time. And at the center of it al...

Grab your sleeping bags and a mediocre-at-best granola bar, because this week on Xtra Butta, Cam and Dylan deep-dive into the Disney cult classic that gave us Tony Perkis, Lars, and a criminally underrated go-kart race: Heavyweights (1995)!

This episode is packed with more nostalgia than a 90s Nickelodeon slime bucket, as your favorite duo breaks down the weird, wild, and wonderfully unhinged summer camp for "husky" kids.

Get ready for a spooky take on Ryan Coogler's latest cinematic masterpiece, Sinners, as Cam & Dylan dive deep into the supernatural swamp of the Mississippi Delta.
