James “Murr” Murray is back on Up+Adam, and this time he’s trading hidden-camera chaos for something with a few more legs.

Murr joins Adam to talk about Don’t Move, the new horror-thriller he co-wrote and produced, where a church group wanders deep into the wilderness and discovers they are being hunted by a massive prehistoric arachnid that tracks its prey through vibration. In other words, running might be the worst thing you can do.

The conversation gets into a connection Murr knows better than most: comedy and horror both live and die by timing. After years of Impractical Jokers, he has learned exactly how long tension can build before it needs a release, whether that release is a laugh or a scream. Murr also reveals one of the craziest Jokers punishments yet, involving the outside of the Empire State Building and, somehow, turning himself into a human mop.

Adam and Murr also get into what makes Don’t Move different from a typical creature feature, why Murr loves horror characters who actually make smart decisions, whether he himself could survive the movie, and the moment Writer Murr collided with Producer Murr when the original opening proved too expensive to put on screen. His solution may have made the movie even more terrifying.

And if you go see Don’t Move in theaters this September, keep an eye on the aisle. Murr says he plans to travel around the country surprising audiences at screenings as his way of personally thanking people for showing up.

Don’t Move opens in theaters nationwide September 11, 2026.
