Episode 168: What Becomes of the Children (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this innocent, simple episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we travel backward in the American zeitgeist timeline to witness What Becomes of the Children, the 1936 film directed by Walter Shumway. The morals of the mid 1930s become much more mysterious when one imagines the involvement of Tubi. This is because there is a strong possibility this film might even confuse such a mystery further... It is only right to investigate!
Episode 167: Wolfskin: A Fairy Tale (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this transformative, whistful episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we venture into the fairytale silence of Wolfskin: A Fairy Tale, the 2013 film written and directed by Richard Mansfield. Tubi is an app that is no stranger to silence, and finding this film in its depths was impactful... the nature of the impact, one cannot fully decipher.
Episode 166: Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this holy sacrament of a Tubi or Not Tubi episode, we take a big bite of garlic shawarma as we watch Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, the 2001 film directed by Lee Demarbre Tubi has no shortage of films in the realm of silly parody, especially when it comes to Jesus. How will this next case study fare, we wonder...
Episode 165: Queen Bee (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this sweltering, scandalous episode of Tubi or Not Tubi, we watch the chaos wrought in Queen Bee, the 1955 film written and directed by Ranald MacDougall and starring Joan Crawford. Tubi is a wonderful and generous archive, that has a range of options that span all of time. What a delight it is to gaze toward the past as we have done in this episode...
Episode 164: Rise & Fight: The Battle of Hobkirk's Hill (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In this patriotic, cherry tree of a Tubi or Not Tubi episode, we boil some tar and pluck some pheasants for Rise & Fight: The Battle of Hobkirk's Hill, the 2025 film written and directed by Christopher Forbes. This episode is a special treat, because it actively enabled Rafiq to elaborate fully on the reason why he has an irrational obsession with the "hypereducational-but-still-super-confusing-indie-US-war-reenactment-or-something" genre.
