The Butler Did It

     This week- four films starring a tartan typhoon called Gerry.

     After being locked away in a vault for 120 years, a heist unleashes a vampiric nightmare on New Orleans just in time for Mardi Gras (as if a movie would acknowledge the city for the other 11 months of the year). Mary, a young record store employee with questionable mental health, finds herself in the bloodsucker's sights. Will she escape the eternal night of Dracula 2000 (aka Dracula 2001 aka Wes Craven Presents Dracula 2000)?
     In ancient Egypt, the gods lived among mortals. After a thousand years, Osiris decides it is time to step down and hand his crown to his son, Horus. This decision doesn't sit well with his brother, Set. So Set takes the opportunity to seize power and remake the world to his liking. Can Horus and a tiny human thief stop the god of deserts and storms before he destroys all Gods of Egypt?
     During a home invasion Clyde Shelton is forced to watch his wife and daughter be raped and murdered. When Nick Rice, star of the DA's office, decides to make a deal with the perpetrator, despite there being the most ridiculous mountain of evidence possible, rather than try the easiest career making case of all time. A decade later, the two men find themselves on a collusion course as one tries to bring down the system and the other tries desperately to bring him down. Can Nick and the system he venerates triumph over this Law Abiding Citizen?
     The sudden death and funeral for the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is really part of a massive plan to kill the leaders of every G7 nation. After the initial attack only the President of the United States is left alive and wondering the terrorist infested streets of a completely disconnected English capital with just his super secret service agent, Mike Banning. With enemies hunting them on every block and kilometers between them and rescue, how long can they survive now that London Has Fallen?
     All that and Kevin gets his new horror on, Dave objects, Craig considers new liquid receptacles, and Tyler has his eye on some new skate trucks. Join us, won't you?

    Episode 358- The Butler Did It

Pious Vice

     This week a pair of walks on the wild side that end in fairly similar results.
     The movie version of a 1980s titan of television. Crockett and Tubs are undercover vice detectives. When they stumble on to a joint federal agency operation against a paramilitary cartel. The operation is leaking information and unable to move forward. Soon Crockett and Tubs take the reigns and find themselves in deep cover making inroad to what could be the largest trafficking takedown in history. Michael Mann's 2006 update of the show that made casual suits cool for a decade- Miami Vice.
     Down a major highway, in the middle of nowhere, you will find a truck stop known for such good and clean sex workers that it has earned a very special call sign. Not far from them a very devout cult have also taken up residence. When a seemingly timid girl from the cult takes refuge with the sex workers, things take a sharp turn into the nightmarish. A throwback thriller that gets the feel right- Candy Land.
     All that and Craig awakens, Tyler searches for beskar, Dave gets toony, and Kevin watches over something truly vile. Join us, won't you?
