This week, Jef has chosen one of his late-aughts faves: 2008’s ‘The Ruins’. Brian comes to terms with the fact that he requires his horror villains to have a face - preferably one made of rubber - and Josh is again frustrated with Jef’s determination to bring actual good movies to the dinner table. Because he prefers the taste of crap. Although the social media video sensation known as ‘Vines’ wouldn’t take off until five years later, this white-privilege, vacation-friends, major-label body-horror gem features vines front and center, atop a pyramid! And while this same year, M. Night’s ‘The Happening’ would feature the fjärts of the plant world, ‘The Ruins’ focuses more on the teeth, the viscera, the mimicry and the invasion! Plug in your green thumb and enjoy!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
