We're kicking off a full month of video game related movies with what is far and away the most important video game commercial of our collective childhoods, The Wizard! Join us as we torment our younger selves by forcing them to confront the cold, hard reality of a movie from our youth not quite standing up to the test of time...or the test of anything, really.

Twin Peaks is wrapped, but we find ourselves longing for more time with the cast, so why not dig into some of the non-Lynch movies these folks have made over the years?
