This week- a pair of French speaking serial killers and the people who obsess over them.
Saskia and Rex are on a biking holiday in France. At a rest stop, Saskia goes to buy drinks and is never seen again. Raymond is a wealthy family man who spends his free time practicing his approach to abducting women. Raymond refines his methods through fumbling trial and error. Three years later, Rex will learn exactly what happened to Saskia. A clinical tour of two men's obsessions that has firmly earned its place as one of the best horror films in world cinema- Spoorloos (aka The Vanishing). Kelly-Anne is obsessed with the trial of Ludovic Chevalier, who is accused of being a serial killer that streamed his murders live to the world. She sleeps in an alley the courthouse, sits in the same seat with the best view of the accused, breaks into the homes of victims, and befriends Clementine- a serial killer groupie convinced of Chevalier's innocence. Soon Kelly-Anne joins the hunt down the missing video of the last victim's murder. A French-Canadian descent into cybercrime and obsession stuffed with Arthurian references and a vicious commentary on true crime fandom- Red Rooms.
All that and Tyler hordes the world's supply of trucker hats, Dave faces off against a giant shark, and Kevin finds a new way out of Craig's basement. Join us, won't you?
