This week we watched the 2002 campy classic Bubba Ho-Tep, starring the legendary Bruce Campbell. Come with us as we follow along the bizarre adventure of a possible Elvis and former president as they track down an elusive soul sucking hillbilly mummy. It's a truly wild ride from start to finish.

Our drink of choice this week was the perfectly fitting Elvis Juice by Brewdog. It's a grapefruit infused IPA that has all of the best parts of grapefruit flavor and none of the bite. We're not sure what kind of mojo they stole from the King, but we swear it got more flavorful the longer we were drinking it. Truly one of the best beers we've tried yet.

Let's TCB, baby!

This week we decided to liven things up some with a little music(al), so we watched the 1986 remake of The Little Shop of Horrors, based on the stage musical. The songs are great, the puppetry is larger than life, too many celebrities to keep up with and a weird macabre sci-fi story and those are just the highlights. If you somehow have made it this far in your life and not watched this movie, consider this your official invitation.

When we saw the can and name of this week's beer we instantly knew it had to be for this movie. The very perfectly named hazy IPA, Mortal Bloom by Founders Brewing, comes in a can with a different but similar looking carnivorous (possibly alien) plant reaching it's tendrils around the can. It was certainly refreshing full of citrusy tropical smells and flavors that certainly added to the appeal and make this just as dangerous as ol' Twoey.

Feed me, Seymour!

**Added note - After a few weeks of equipment issues causing various recording and editing issues, we were fortunate to have an episode with no audio issues. On that note, these issues have caused us to take a hard look at how polished our editing is/needs to be. This weeks episode has 3 different levels of editing done: our usual level of editing you expect at the beginning, some slightly toned down editing and then at the end the super bare bones edit. Let us know which you prefer, if you can even tell a difference. Bonus points to anyone who can spot the timecode for when the different levels of editing start. Happy hunting everyone.

This week was a special episode for us with many things working in the background for a few months. You already know since we didn't do our usual game that we watched Punk's Dead: SLC Punk 2, our first time returning to a sequel (so our first sequel?) and of course we had to do it for writer/director James Merendino's crowd-funded follow up. Much like the last time around, one of us was familiar with the movie and the other one got introduced to another film in the James Merendino catalog. This is a movie that tends to get a bad rap from a lot of fans and we just didn't think it deserves that kind of treatment. Hopefully we can change a few minds, or at the very least introduce some new fans to this film as we celebrate 10 years since it wrapped on filming.

And keeping up with the specialness of this episode, our beer added to this event. We were very gracious for the people at Proper Brewing Company for responding to us after our episode on the first movie and helping us get some of their beer sourced here to Kentucky from SLC (and a little help from James Merendino himself for pointing us in their direction and telling us about their awesome beer that would be great for this episode). We of course are talking about their delicious SLC Pils, it's crisp and refreshing pilsner and we may have enjoyed a few more than usual since they so kindly sent us so much. If you get the chance to make it out to SLC on your movie sightseeing trip, definitely add picking up some of this beer to the list.

Go see this movie, don't make me run you through with my blade!

Extra note: Despite our best efforts for this episode and the extra behind the scenes work, we still encountered some kind of sound issues, we repaired the corrupted parts of the recording as much as possible, thank you for understanding.
