Today on the 5: After watching Nothing Underneath, I thought a good film to follow it with would be 1987's Delirium. I reviewed this movie back in 2019, but had never done a short review and had not revisited it since. I was curious how it would hold up following Nothing Underneath, and as I expected the primary flaw the movie has it is a little harder to ignore.

Today on the 5: Often when you hear about what people are afraid of in terms of AI, the fictional concept of "Skynet" is invoked. In talking to actual people who aren't chasing clicks or heavily tech-oriented, the concerns are smaller scale and far more grounded in what we're actually seeing examples of.

This video is our commentary for 1985's Nothing Underneath, another entry in the 80s Italian giallo pantheon. One of the hallmarks of many Italian films of that era was a high degree of sleaze, often mixed in with other genres in an attempt to elevate the material. Blending it in correctly was often tricky, which makes this movie a pleasant surprise. You'll see plenty of skin, sure, but it's layered around an effective murder mystery with a killer you can actually empathize with, at least to a point.

Today on the 5: Author Andy Weir recently made some comments about Star Trek that got him enough negative attention that he has since apologized for them. Apology authenticity aside, his idea of what Star Trek should be makes zero sense to me.
