Starring Chiwetel Ejiofor as a struggling furniture store owner who uncovers a terrifying hidden portal, alongside Renate Reinsve, the film adapts the viral internet creepypasta into a mind-bending, claustrophobic nightmare of endless rooms and liminal dread. Ray and Tre'vell get into the nitty-gritty of the film's execution, unpacking the psychology of the maze, the eerie cosmic horror, and whether this viral sensation actually gives what it's supposed to give on the big screen. Tune in for their hella honest verdict: is this trippy descent into madness a \"Seated,\" \"Stream It,\" or a \"Skip It?\" Ray also brings us a recap from South Beach, sharing his experience at the 2026 American Black Film Festival (ABFF) . He drops a few capsule reviews of festival standouts, including the indie features Funny Feelings and That's Her, plus the always-stacked lineup from the HBO® Short Film Award . Plus, the hosts play a special Chiwetel Ejiofor edition of the Black Cinema Games , highlighting five of the leading man's biggest box office hits and guessing their Letterboxd ratings. Finally, they close the show with Good Vibes Only , sharing what's bringing them joy this week.
