Bonus episode!!This time the Bros. look back at the 2014 mockumentary vampire horror/comedy film What We Do in the Shadows starring Jemaine Clement, Taika Waititi, and Jonathan Brugh. The movie focuses on three housemates (who just happen to be vampires) as they live in New Zealand and deal with the struggles of modern day life while getting ready for the annual undead ball. Yes, I know there are four housemates originally but ultimately its sights are set on the main three.It’s definitely an entertaining movie, myself (Wade) have seen this once before and wasn’t as entertained as it was hyped up for me, however with a revisit I enjoyed it much more. Very creative and witty with the dialogue, and all of the actors in the film do a wonderful job. I highly recommend watching it with friends, and if you’re a fan of the style of movie you’ll enjoy it. Don’t just take my word for it kick back and listen for yourself!
