    Tomb Raider (2018)
    Jan 24 2026
    Based on the "survivor trilogy" reboot of the Tomb Raider games, this 2018 movie swaps Angelina Jolie for Alicia Vikander and casts Walton Goggins in the villain role. This adventure sees Lara searching for her missing father who has disappeared on an expedition to uncover the tomb of Himiko, an ancient witch who was rumoured to have power over death itself. Despite a sequel set up the 2018 movie never saw a follow up and has mostly faded from public consciousness. Jamie and Rory invite returning guest Harry McIlroy to join them in trying to work out why that might be.

  • Assassin's Creed

    Assassin's Creed
    Jan 17 2026
    It's one of the most popular videogame franchises of the last twenty years and it's movie adaptation was heralded as potentially being the first movie to break the videogame movie curse. With heavy hitters like Michael Fassbender, Marion Cottilard and Jeremy Irons onboard it certainly seemed like this might be the case...and yet...Assassin's Creed made zero impact on the pop culture and is almost completely forgotten a decade later. In this week's episode we look back at this 2016 movie to see if it deserved its fate or if it deserved better.

    Five Nights At Freddy's 2
    Jan 10 2026
    After the first movie was a surprise hit, it's no surprise that Blumhouse greenlit a sequel. Josh Hutcherson and Matthew Lillard both return but this time we add Skeet Ulrich to the cast, marking a long awaited on screen reunion between the two original Scream cast members. Except...well...not quite. This movie is a runaway success just like its predecessor, but what do the VGMP boys think of it?

    Monster Hunter
    Jan 3 2026
    As we rapidly approach the final ever episode of VGMP it wouldn't be right not to have Jamie do battle one more time with his arch-nemesis; Paul W.S. Anderson. After maiming the Resident Evil franchise with six increasingly bad instalments, Anderson turned his attention to another Capcom franchise; Monster Hunter. Once again casting Mila Jovovich, will Anderson have a better take on this source material than he did Resident Evil? (Spoiler Alert: He won't.)

  • Sweet Home

    Sweet Home
    Dec 31 2025
    One that's been on Jamie's radar for a while now this week; Sweet Home is the first ever theatrically released videogame movie and was made in conjunction with its videogame counterpart (similar to previous episode Mirai Ninja). Perhaps more importantly, the film is directed by landmark J-Horror director Kiyoshi Kurosawa (Cure, Pulse) and was one of the chief inspirations behind one of Jamie's all time favourite games; Resident Evil!

    The Super Mario Bros. Movie
    Dec 27 2025
    The record-breaking Super Mario Bros. Movie from 2023 is the first videogame movie to break one billion dollars at the box office! This juggernaut film was initially met with controversy when Chris Pratt was cast as the voice of Mario but this didn't hinder the film when it came time to rake in the big bucks! This show started with the 1993 Super Mario movie so it feels fitting, as we near the final days of the show, to review the 2023 movie!

    The Lost Chapter: Yuki's Revenge

    Now this is a real first, at least as far as we can see, massively popular videogame Fortnite used its engine to render a deleted sequence from Quentin Tarantino's "Kill Bill" and made it viewable in game. It was such an unusual and unexpected thing to happen, we just had to cover it.
