You know what happens when Vern submits a film for Movie of the Month? We end up talking about Showgirls.
After Howard the Duck, Jay basically vowed to never let Vern host a MOTM show again, yet somehow this happened, so in protest Jay isn’t here this week and Richard reluctantly took the hosting reigns to try and wrangle Vern, Chris and Doug towards a sensible discussion of a movie that begs the opposite.
Also on tap: Rants, Raves and Reviews of the Week and a game about even more terrible films.
