This week in the podcast mines we dig up a 1993 movie that's arguably less famous than its soundtrack: JUDGMENT NIGHT starring Emilio Estevez, Cuba Gooding Jr., Jeremy Piven, Stephen Dorff, and Denis Leary as a gang leader (?). Play the opening riff because the boys are back in town, that town being Chicago, which to their four suburban brains looks like a warzone. On their way to a boxing match they take an ill-advised shortcut which embroils them in an ongoing street war in which "Leave No Witnesses" is one of the rules. The chase then ensues and takes a few different forms, and we get some solid character work from all the actors. We discuss that as well as what the movie may or may not be trying to say about cities being "dangerous" to suburban folks. We also call Everlast weird-looking. We talk about going Piven Mode (the acting, not the sexual assault).
