Blake has our Patreon pick this week and makes a special appearance. Previous choices were Surf Nazi's Must Die and Bad Taste, and to round off the Blake Byles trilogy, he's gone for the infamous cult-classic, The Room (2003). This movie has been referred to as the Citizen Kane of bad movies, but will it live up to it's billing?
