About this episode

The episode explores the horror film 'BEST SERVED COLD' and its themes of friendship and culinary curiosity turned nightmare.

When a spirited squad of Filipinas flies off to Chile for a bachelorette blowout, the plan is simple: sun on their skin, drinks in hand, and not a single worry beyond which bikini matches the day’s vibe. Unfortunately for them—and delightfully for horror fans—this is no ordinary getaway. The universe has a habit of turning girls’ trips into cautionary tales, and BEST SERVED COLD (2026) is more than ready to stir trouble into the vacation cocktail. IMDB offers a delightfully blunt teaser: “Two best friends on a food tour in Chile discover a remote resort run by cannibals.” What it politely avoids mentioning is the most important detail: who exactly is being served, and how fast can one run in flip‑flops? The film wastes no time turning culinary curiosity into a full‑blown nightmare, with friendship, fear, and questionable menu items all simmering together. Directed by Richard Somes, the movie stars Elisse Joson as Gwen, the glowing bride‑to‑be, and Alexa Miro as Moira, her fiercely loyal partner in pre‑wedding mischief. Somes channels the gritty charm of 1970s Filipino exploitation cinema, delivering a tight 90‑minute ride that blends grindhouse grit with a dash of mainstream…
