What started as a joke two years ago, has become a reality. Uncle Ben and Hollywood Steve review the film adaptation of the best-selling vampire novel Twilight. This episode gets deep into Mormon culture, Hollywood Steve mounts something of a defense of Stephenie Meyer, and we both have a pretty heavy buzz by the end of this mammoth-sized episode about a teenage vampire movie that is in no way horror. It's a blast!
