The gang gets falsely accused this week as they review the Danish stress-test movie, The Hunt. Vastly different than the 2020 successor of the same name, this skin-crawling drama tells the story of a middle-aged man who teaches Kindergarten defending his name after false child molestation charges surface in his small town.
