September 08, 2020 Twilight Zone: The Movie (Part 1)
Twilight Zone: The Movie earned mediocre reviews at a very high price: a deadly helicopter accident on John Landis’ set which took the lives of actor Vic Morrow and two young children. This week Lizzie leads Chris through this tragedy-laden production that serves as a heavy reminder that no film is worth a human life.

August 04, 2020 The Man Who Killed Don Quixote
Adam Driver stars in a film conceived only 6 years after he was. This week, Chris & Lizzie learn the tale of director Terry Gilliam’s 29 year battle against F-16s, prostate infections, and insubordinate horses on his (perhaps) misguided quest to finish The Man Who Killed Don Quixote.

July 14, 2020 Heaven's Gate
