Happy Halloween listeners!
The spookiest month of the season climaxes with Will and Josh's first-ever viewing of Tobe Hooper's 1974 horror masterpiece, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Not much more to say about this one; this is a movie that speaks for itself. But will it be everything they expect?

In keeping with Season 2's theme, I decided to explore a genre that I didn't have much exposure to: Old Movies!
This week, Eric and Emily join me as I have my first experience of the Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers partnership, in the 1937 dance film Shall We Dance.
Emily loved this movie as a kid; will it live up to her cherished childhood memories? Will Dave and Eric make it through the film without getting bored? Most critically of all, how do you pronounce "oysters"?

Josh had never seen Blade Runner so I made him predict what he thought it was about and then I made him watch it and then I made him come back afterwards and see how his predictions panned out and also talk about what he thought of it.
In this episode we definitively answer once and for all whether Deckard is a replicant, and why unicorns went extinct.

Note from Dave: This episode was recorded before Rutger Hauer's passing. He was a phenomenal actor, and his work in this film was breathtaking. He will be missed. Rest in Peace.

Happy first day of Fall everyone! Truly, Fall is the best season. And what better way to celebrate the start of the best season than with a very special bonus episode!
Pumpkin beer aside, part of why I love Fall so much is because it's linked to my favorite kind of movie, horror. In this episode, I am joined by Josh in correcting a glaring oversight in my horror bona fides, the iconic 1980 slasher film, Friday the 13th.
Will this franchise-starter have any surprises left to offer after so many sequels? Does Josh know how to play Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon? Can either of us link Kevin Bacon to Chiwetel Ejiofor?
Tune in and find out!

It's turkey time.
That's right, it's time for Eric, Emily and Dave to discuss, watch and discuss again one of the most famous "bad movies" ever: Gigli.
Will the the Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez crime-drama/comedy/romance/whatever-the-hell live down to its reputation? Or will it prove to be a secret masterpiece? There's only one way to find out!

Season 2 begins with a bang!
First-time guest Michelle has never seen Taxi Driver, and this week, she finally decides to do something about it. Will Martin Scorsese's thriller about a man slowly losing his sanity live up to its mountain of critical hype? Or will it prove just another dismal day on the bleak, gritty streets of the multiplex?
