Roxy Striar, Tara Erickson, Jackie Bonsignore & Paige Kimsey head back to Camp Crystal Lake for their first-time reaction to Crystal Lake Episodes 1–4 on Peacock! The A24 Friday the 13th prequel follows Pamela Voorhees in the aftermath of young Jason’s apparent drowning, just as gruesome deaths begin spreading fear across the quiet New Jersey town. Roxy, Tara, Jackie & Paige react to Linda Cardellini’s transformation into Pamela, young Jason’s story, the premiere’s shocking ending, the escalating kills, the mystery surrounding Grace, and all the Friday the 13th Easter eggs hidden throughout the first four episodes!

/ thereelrejects

Created by Brad Caleb Kane (It: Welcome to Derry, Fringe), Crystal Lake stars Linda Cardellini as Pamela Voorhees (Freaks and Geeks, Dead to Me), Callum Vinson as young Jason Voorhees (Chucky, Long Bright River), Gwendolyn Sundstrom as Grace (I’m Beginning to See the Light, I Don’t Think I Believe in Love), William Catlett as Police Chief Levon (Lovecraft Country, Abigail), Cameron Scoggins as Officer Dorf (Nashville, The Blacklist), and Devin Kessler as Brianna (Godfather of Harlem, Juicy).

After the reaction, the four discuss Linda Cardellini’s performance, the show’s expanded Pamela Voorhees origin story, its bloody practical effects, the 1970s summer-camp atmosphere, and how Episodes 1–4—“Camp Crystal,” “Part II,” “Part III,” and “A New Beginning”—reimagine the mythology established by the original Friday the 13th.

Greg Alba & Roxy Striar are checking out Buddy (2026) aka the terrifying Buddy the Unicorn for the first time! What starts like a cheerful ’90s children’s show quickly turns into a surreal horror-comedy about kids trapped inside Buddy’s colorful television world, where singing along and following the rules might be their only way to stay safe. Greg & Roxy try to make sense of Buddy’s creepy songs, Freddy pushing back against him, the journey to Diamond City, Dark Buddy, and an ending that somehow gets even stranger the longer you think about it!

Buddy (2026) Full Movie Reaction Watch Along:
/ thereelrejects

Directed by Casper Kelly (Too Many Cooks, Adult Swim Yule Log), Buddy stars Keegan-Michael Key as Buddy the Unicorn (Key & Peele, Wonka), Cristin Milioti as Grace (The Penguin, Palm Springs), Delaney Quinn as Freddy (Law & Order, New Amsterdam), Topher Grace as Ben (That ’70s Show, BlacKkKlansman), Michael Shannon as Charlie the Train and Willie (Man of Steel, The Shape of Water), and Patton Oswalt as Strappy (Ratatouille, A.P. Bio).

After the reaction, Greg & Roxy discuss the movie’s twisted children’s-show atmosphere, surreal puppets and practical effects, surprisingly catchy songs, disturbing imagery, bizarre comedy, and what its nightmarish story might be saying about childhood entertainment and forced positivity.
