Nothing gets us gabbing like a good mystery and nothing brings a family together like murder.

Stay inside, stay healthy, plug in and listen with us as we chat 2019’s Knives Out.

Before Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker BLASTS into stores to own on 4K, Blu Ray and DVD on April 1st, for the FIRST TIME EVER ChatFlix takes a look at a flick we’ve already chatted. Consider this episode; Re-ChatFlix!

Get a whole other perspective this time around when Brose is joined by a couple of Chatflix stalwarts when Stuart and James sit in to chat The Rise of Skywalker.

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

Well before superheroes dominated the box office, back in 1979 crime fighting had really gone to the dogs. More specifically, C.H.O.M.P.S.

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

The Canine Home Protection System, C.H.O.M.P.S. is a robot dog created by Wesley Eure’s Brian Foster for Conrad Bain’s Ralp[h Norton. C.H.O.M.P.S. has super strength, x-ray vision and a doggo sense to detect crimes being committed, does he manage to prevent being kidnapped by a Mr Burns type, Jim Backus’ Mr Gibbs?

Did Hanna/Barbera’s only live action effort live up to our memory or were we left asking “who let the dogs out?”

While Sonic the Hedgehog runs amok internationally at the box office (in cinemas NOW), let us take you all the way back to 1993 for the first film ever adapted from a video game: Super Mario Bros.

The movie poster promised ‘This Ain’t No Game’ and boy o boy, were they not kidding! The Mario Brothers (Luigi Mario and, that’s right, that makes Mario’s full name Mario Mario) travel to another dimension to rescue a princess from the evil dictator King Koopa and stop him from taking over the world.

Can Bob Hoskins and John Leguizamo save this flick from going down the drain? Nope.

In a NEW series of minis, Brose sits down with Supergirl cosplayer extraordinaire Corrine Lawrence to chat about a handful of favourite, formative, childhood flicks.

Townsend is joined by Mufasa and Rafiki (James Earl Jones and Robert Guilliame), Marla Gibbs, Eddie Griffin, Don Cheadle and a who’s who of African-American entertainers of the 90s.

Harley Quinn was dumped by The Joker, so we at Chatflix have sat down in front of our microphones to unpack our reactions to Cathy Yan’s NEW release; Birds of Prey And the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn (boy, that’s a mouthful!) in a SPOILER filled chat.

Brose assembles a team just like Margot Robbie’s Cupid of Crime; except comic tragic Jarrod isn’t an orphan bent on revenge and first timer (and Harley Quinn super fan) Kayleigh’s voice won’t shatter your ears drums (or your martini glass).

So grab a hair tie and unwrap your egg sandwich because we’re chatting BOP now!
