Episode 185-Shredder (2003)
Episode 185
Sunday, 15 February, 2026
Troy and Roger carve into the frosty chaos of the 2003 snowbound slasher Shredder. Set at a remote ski resort with a dark local legend hanging over it, the film sends a group of bickering twenty-somethings straight into a blizzard of bad decisions and surprisingly mean-spirited kills. The guys unpack the early-2000s energy, the soap-opera-level relationship drama, and a twist reveal so convoluted it practically needs its own flowchart. They debate whether the movie is secretly fun or just aggressively confused, especially when it comes to pacing and character motivation. Between icy chase scenes and head-scratching logic, there is plenty to laugh about. It is snowy, slashy, and just self-serious enough to make the commentary even better.
