In this episode Dave and Jess watch Totally Killer (2023) on Amazon Prime, which they pair with a second attempt at the Mezcal Old Fashioned cocktail. Is this horror comedy set in the 80's totally tubular, man? Or should it be cast in the trash like New Coke and denim jackets?
The couple discuss whether or not this killer's mask will be considered iconic, conventions of time travel movies and homages to Back to the Future, and how Lochlyn Munro will also be "that guy" from Dead Man on Campus.
The conversation also goes into comparisons between this film and The Final Girls, with Dave discussing why he thinks you should watch that film, and the couple tease their upcoming short story published by Strange Adventures.

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.
