Old sketch group pals Nick Kocher and Brian McElhaney drop by to discuss their new film about two high college buds attempting to make it downstairs to grab their munchies. Available on Hulu: Pizza Movie.

Mike and Abe discuss the 2013 psychological thriller/mystery Prisoners, directed by Denis Villeneuve. The film depicts the horrors of your child being kidnapped and how rage and fear can strip our humanity. Get ready for some movie “glazing,” as the kids call it.

This episode completes the thrilling conclusion of the 1994 ABC television event, The Stand. We covered this as a two-parter, as it’s technically four movie length episodes.
