Ben & Rob finish their trilogy of contemporary grindhouse with S Craig Zahler’s final movie ‘Dragged Across Concrete’. Starring famously disgraced racist Mel Gibson alongside Vince Vaughn as two suspended cops stealing money from a heist that’s not yet happened. Universally ignored upon it’s release by both festivals and wider audiences, ‘Dragged Across Concrete’ lost almost all of its budget yet ended up briefly being the most streamed film on Netflix.

Zahler’s grimly dark eye as director delighted us in his previous outings (Bone Tomahawk, Brawl In Cellblock 99) but has he gone too far with his latest grindhouse genre-piece? Has Ben finally found a exploitation cinema series that Rob loves 100% of? And is there hope for Mel Gibson’s career after an unforgivable string of disgusting anti-semitism, racism and misogyny? No, and we don’t even consider for a second there could be. No film is good enough for us to forgive Mel Gibson.
