Ronin Ethos

Outside the Algorithm. Inside What Resonates.

Welcome to Resonance Ronin — home of Cynic Critique: A Cult Film Podcast and its newly-forged offshoot, Cynic Critique: Zine-Machine. We’re building a home for media that matters — not because it’s trending, but because it hits something deeper. And we’re just getting started.

We don’t follow the algorithm.
We follow what resonates.
We seek out Films Worth Fighting For, and we stand up to Defend the Dismissed.

Right now, we’re podcasting film reviews, zine-ing them with added personal depth, and writing scrolls (our blog) that blend republished zine pieces with all-new exclusives. From forgotten films to fresh takes, if it speaks to us, it ends up here.

And as the journey unfolds, expect original creative projects beyond Cynic Critique — experiments, stories, fragments of the future — all driven by the same core: resonance over relevance.

We are Ronin.
We serve no master.
We roam outside the algorithm.

If you’re walking your own path through the media landscape — drawn to the strange, the lost, the underloved, with the odd classic standing like a monolith in the mist — then maybe you’re Ronin too.

And maybe you resonate.
