This week we're diving deeply and darkly into the DTV realm and fishing up a couple of classier than usual gems with legitimate people involved. We kick things off with a discussion of the subtly anger fueled Neo-Noir, Sweet Virginia (2017), featuring a sad, bearded bull riding Jonny Bernthal. Then we head out to Baltic region and fish ourselves up…

Sometimes you go into a movie with hopes and dreams of the magnificently magical treasure box that's about to hopefully be revealed before your eye meats. You see the cast, the plot synopsis and the vintage and you just know you're in for something truly special. And other times you end up with the Brent Huff penned and directed stinkbag, The Bad P…

The desert is a place where people go to get lost. It's also a place where people go to get found. Then again, it's also a place where dirtbags like to do dumb sh*t while messed up on illicit drugs and maybe start an off the grid colony or something. The point is... wait... what was the point? Oh yeah, this week the movies we're talking about featu…

This week we head back to the mystical land of the orient and discover that, as long suspected, the people of Asia have the highest blood pressure of anyone in the world. We also discover that high school girls are more terrifying than the reanimated corpse of a World War II soldier capable of pulling a man's arm off and caving his skull in with it…

Why can't we escape the early aughts?! BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT TO.

It's episode 450! Which means it's time to talk about honor. It's time to talk about brotherhood. It's time to talk about Heroes. Bloodshed. It's time to talk about cool sunglasses. Trenchcoats. The plausability of smoking while also holding a toothpick in one's mouth. Dealing with trauma by way of the food triangle. Whether or not it's a good idea…

The topic of this week's episode is misplaced rage. Rage about being forgotten after suffering for your country. Rage about how your patriotic duty resulted in the allowance of people you don't particularly care for or respect gaining freedoms you don't believe they deserve. Rage about how you spent all this time building a cool serrated razor glov…

Sometimes the men in white coats come along, snatch you up and use wire fire to scramble your eggs, which can be pretty wild. Not as wild as raising a child after such a horrifying and life altering event, which is exactly what happens in the John Sayles penned weirdo hobo superhero epic, Wild Child (1987). But before we dive into all that nonsense…

This week we continue to wallow in the early 2000s mire as we're wont to do. Up front we head to Depression era gangland with Tom Hanks, Paul Newman, Daniel Craig's ghoulish mug and Jude Law's baked bean teeth in Road to Perdition (2002). Then we bang back a shot and take a flight over to the land of tea and crumpets to watch some dag fights with a…

Then we head to the dirty streets of Cleveland and watch Michael Rooker and Bobby …
