This week, regular guest Derek Jarvis joins us to talk about the little-seen (but surprisingly effective) home invasion thriller Unlawful Entry! When a couple (Kurt Russell, Madeleine Stowe) narrowly survive a home invasion, they run into a shady cop (Ray Liotta) who seems all too willing to abuse his power to take over as man of the house. A creepy post-Rodney King erotic thriller about police brutality and white flight, we actually dug Unlawful Entry quite a bit. Check out our review, along with our custom cocktail and drinking rules!

This week, we toke up with Shannon Campe (of the podcast Stage of Fools) and Zach Powers (also of Stage of Fools and The Revisionists) as we dig into 2001's stoner comedy How High! When Method Man and Redman get into Harvard by smoking the ashes of their dead friend, you know you're in for a baffling experience. Come check out our thoughts along with our custom cocktail and drinking game!

Theo of our spinoff show Twin Cinema joins us once again this week, as we grab our binkies and talk about the cult 1973 horror film The Baby! Following the efforts of a lonely social worker to wrest control of an infantilized adult from his mother (looking every bit like late-period Joan Crawford) and his two groovy femme fatale sisters, The Baby is one of the craziest films we've seen in awhile. Check out our episode, along with our custom cocktail and drinking game!

Jared's kidnopped again this week, so Clint enlists the help of regular guest Grant (of Chip & Ironicus and Six Feats Under fame), as well as his lovely wife Alaina (the co-host of podcasts History Honeys and Sex Archie) to dig deep into the 2006 anime masterpiece Tekkonkinkreet! The fable of two contrasting orphans, Black and White, struggling to survive amid poverty and crime in the chugging, churning city of Treasure Town, Tekkonkinkreet is a wonder to behold, both visually and thematically. Take a listen along with our custom cocktail and drinking rules!

This week, we get comfortably numb with Masterpiece Reviews' Nick Freed as we dig into the meat, the pudding, and everything else related to 1982's psychedelic concept album adaptation Pink Floyd: The Wall!

Telling the story of Pink (The Boomtown Rats' Bob Geldof) from childhood to adulthood, Roger Waters' adaptation of his own concept album - with the help of director Alan Parker and stunning animation by Gerald Scarfe - leaves us as entertained as we are baffled. Join us as we talk about the meat, the pudding, and everything in between along with our custom cocktail and drinking rules!
