Or Is It? – I Was A Zombie For The F.B.I.

Comedian and part-time co-host, Scott White is back.  This time all of us are in the same place at the same time!  Scott gave us three options and we picked wrong.  “I Was A Zombie For The F.B.I.” is quite possibly the most absurd, weird, poorly made, yet oddly fascinating movie we’ve ever reviewed.  A black and white movie made in 1982 . . . and that’s just the beginning.

Or Is It? – Pixels

Aliens receive what they perceive as a threat from Earth and travel across the universe to challenge us in a series of fights based on 1980s arcade games.  And our best hope to save us . . . is Adam Sandler?  Another case of a great premise totally pissed away.  Let’s get down like Donkey Kong and start Pac-ing!
