What happens when an elderly doting grandfather becomes addicted to an insect's rejuvenating sting, but in doing so also develops a thirst for human blood? Join us a we discuss Del Toro's troubling childhood, #RonPerlman's pitch-perfect performance & keeping excrement in jars... #PrepareForPrattle

The Brothers Ortiz
The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
