🎃 Ali G: Who Iz I? — Who Is This For? 🎃
Episode 4007
Saturday, 31 October, 2026

Happy Halloween, Hazy Core Crew. You came here for something scary, and I’ve got it: the scariest thing this season might be how bad this movie is. After twenty years of insanity, Ali G is back, and nobody asked for it. Sacha Baron Cohen returns to his most iconic character for his feature directorial debut, and this time Julie is eight months pregnant, which means Ali G actually has to get off his batty and do something. So he heads to America to reclaim his former glory, with unsuspecting real people along for the ride as usual. Shot entirely in secret, in the same guerrilla, man-on-the-street prank format that made the original so gloriously uncomfortable, this is less a traditional film and more a chaos documentary. Does Sacha Baron Cohen still have the bite, or is this the real horror story of the year? I’ve got thoughts, and they are not small ones. And if you want something actually worth your Halloween watch time, go watch “Taboo,” the award-winning short film from the brilliant Jennifer Levinson. She always deserves the shoutout. 🎥 youtube.com/watch?v=kMz2bSNvgao This is The Reel Pineapple. Let’s talk about it. 🍍 In Theaters October 23, 2026 | Rated R | Dir.
