Our third entry into this year's Never Seen November explores heartbreak, memory, and messy love with Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind—Michel Gondry’s surreal interpretation of what it means to forget and forgive. We talk Jim Carrey and Kate Winslet’s raw, vulnerable performances, Charlie Kaufman’s brain-bending script, and how this dreamlike film turns emotional pain into art. From erasing memories to bittersweet reunions, we unravel why Eternal Sunshine still feels as inventive and devastating as ever.

The Visit
For this week's entry of Never Seen November, we’re venturing into M. Night Shyamalan’s The Visit—the found-footage thriller that proves sometimes family vacations aren't all they're cracked up to be. We talk Shyamalan’s return to form, the unsettling performances of the grandparents, and how the film masterfully blends genuine scares with awkward laughs. From the ominous oven to a rapping grandson, we unpack why The Visit is both deeply disturbing and weirdly endearing—and why it just might be one of Shyamalan’s sneakiest successes.

Doctor Sleep
We return to the Overlook’s shadow with Doctor Sleep, the long-awaited sequel to The Shining (novel and film) that somehow blends horror, healing, and hope. We talk Ewan McGregor’s quietly powerful performance as an adult Danny Torrance, Rebecca Ferguson’s hypnotic Rose the Hat, and how Mike Flanagan managed to honor both Stephen King and Stanley Kubrick. From psychic showdowns to emotional closure, we explore how this film turns trauma into redemption—with a little Flanagan flare.

The Shining
We take a chilling detour into horror with Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining—the film that made us all suspicious of typewriters, hotels, and long hallways. We talk Jack Nicholson’s unhinged performance, Shelley Duvall’s haunting resilience, and the maze of symbolism that keeps fans theorizing decades later. From adaptation faithfulness to endless carpet patterns, we unpack why this unsettling classic has held its place in the horror genre.

Thor: Ragnarok
We crank up the color (and the comedy) with MCU's Thor: Ragnarok, the cosmic reinvention that turned the god of Thunder into a fan favorite. We talk Taika Waititi’s wild (and welcome) tonal shift, Hulk’s buddy-comedy upgrade, and Cate Blanchett’s scene-stealing Hela. From immigrant anthems to gladiator arenas, we explore how this third Thor outing embraced the weird, redefined the character, and delivered one of the MCU’s funniest, boldest adventures yet.
