Y2K: Remember when we thought the whole wide world was going to explode on January 1, 2000 AD? Kyle Mooney and his collaborators have turned that idea into a whole dang movie.

They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for October 2024:
Frankie Freako: Some rando genre indie about a little puppet dude who shows up to party and wreak havoc. This looks like the unholy love child of Gremlins, Munchies, Munchie, and the like.
