The Countdown

Episode 133: Top 10 Low-Budget Films


Listen Later

We all know price is no guarantee of quality. (Except when it comes to underwear - these calvins pay for themselves, ladies.) So with a spring in their step and a hand down their calvins, the boys count down their favourite low-budget films!
But not before they re-cast a favourite low-budge classic in their Cool for Cast Segment and geek out ​slightly (okay, a lot) on the new Star Wars movie trailer!
Will Wayne try and pull something sneaky with his list? Will Paul get haughtily indignant like an Australian Frasier Crane? Find out this week on the Countdown!
