This week, we review Rubber (2010), Quentin Dupieux’s absurdist horror-comedy that blends surreal satire with low-budget creature-feature chaos. Jack Plotnick, Roxane Mesquida, and Wings Hauser star in a story that explores voyeurism, randomness, and the strange relationship between audience and spectacle. When a mysterious sentient tire named Robert discovers it has deadly telekinetic powers, it embarks on a bizarre killing spree across the California desert—while a group of onlookers watches the carnage unfold from afar. With its self-aware humor and delightfully ridiculous premise, this film raises intriguing questions about why we watch movies at all.

Is killer rubber totally random or strangely profound? Listen on to find out!
