This week the lads discuss all the important things in 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, such as Samson's massive appendage, does the skinning scene look fake and "do you think Ralph Fiennes wore a prosthetic". They go into deep SPOILERS on this one, so if you're yet to see the film, perhaps give it a watch before listening to this episode.

Adam also talks about Rental Family the slightly too sentimental new film staring Academy Award winner Brendan Fraser and the hilarious dark comedy from Park Chan-Wook, No Other Choice.

'Retirement Plan' is a genius 7-minute, animated short film, now Oscar-shortlisted!
