In this ep, Robs Daniel & Wallis talk about the films they're most excited by at this year's London Film Festival. Their selections include the opening film, Emerald Fennell's nightmare comedy Saltburn, and the closing title, Daniel Kaluuya's futuristic The Kitchen. In between the pair discuss David Fincher's The Killer, Anthony Hopkins in One Life, Jonathan Glazer's The Zone of Interest, and Foe, starring Paul Mescal and Saoirse Ronan. And many others...
But they kick off the episode with a quick wrap of this year's FrightFest horror film festival, which took place over the August Bank Holiday Weekend.
So a bumper festival ep then. Let's go....

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.
