Case File: "Red Flags" - Barbarian (2022)
<p>When a string of bizarre disappearances and grisly discoveries leads the Gumshoes to investigate the events of Barbarian, Detective Jonathan becomes convinced he's cracked the case after reading only half the file. Despite his endless list of red flags, terrible instincts, reckless confidence, and an uncanny ability to make every situation worse, the Captain inexplicably leaves him in command of the precinct while attending his daughter's wedding. Detective Jared Ballistic Jackson is furious. After years of playing by the book, he's forced to answer to the one detective he trusts the least. As Jonathan's misguided leadership sends the investigation spiraling into chaos, Jared races to solve the mystery before his temporary boss destroys the evidence, the precinct, and possibly himself. In the end, the Gumshoes discover that the most dangerous monsters aren't always the ones hiding in the basement, they're often the ones everyone keeps making excuses for.</p>

Case File: "Kang Fu" - Warriors of Virtue (1997)
<p>Assigned to give an anti-drug presentation to a class of impressionable third graders, rookie detective Jonathan "Sourdough" Manno makes the catastrophic mistake of preparing by watching Warriors of Virtue (1997), a fantasy film about a disabled boy who is transported to the mystical land of Tao and learns lessons about virtue, self-discipline, and resisting evil from a band of kung-fu kangaroos. Unfortunately, Jonathan also supplements his research with several hours of motivational videos and, under circumstances that remain under investigation, becomes convinced he has been chosen to lead the next generation of moral warriors. His presentation inspires the children far beyond its intended scope, resulting in dozens of elementary school crusaders marching through town to "purify Tao," picketing liquor stores, staging sit-ins at local dispensaries, and attempting to recruit citizens into the Virtue Patrol. As chaos erupts across Apache Junction, the Movie Gumshoes must determine whether Warriors of Virtue is an overlooked family fantasy, a gateway to motivational extremism, or simply the unfortunate catalyst for Jonathan's brief but disastrous reign as the self-proclaimed Kangaroo King of Temperance.</p>

Case File: "Yoyohawk" - Prey (2022)
<p>In this thrilling episode of Movie Gumshoes, the detectives crack the case file to investigate Prey, the explosive 2022 science-fiction action horror film directed by Dan Trachtenberg and written by Patrick Aison. Set in the Northern Great Plains in 1719, the film serves as a gripping prequel to Predator and follows Naru, a fierce young Comanche played by Amber Midthunder, as she hunts a deadly alien wandering the great plains. The Gumshoes are fired up from the jump, geeking out over the rich Comanche history, the brutal survival action, and the return of one of their favorite franchises. As they dig deeper into the case, the detectives can’t contain their excitement watching two elite warriors, one human, one extraterrestrial, collide in an intense showdown packed with suspense, heart, and savage combat.</p>
