“A dream to some! A nightmare to others!”
Curtis and Simon strike back with an exciting double bill for the ages: John Boorman's EXCALIBUR (1981) and Tubi's ZAPPER! (2023). They are joined by ZAPPER! director Nick Gatsby and director/actress Skye Armenta to discuss their latest film and other favourites before diving into EXCALIBUR. Join the gang for the sword in the stone, medieval fantasy, quests, and more. Before the film, the group also talk about what they watched this week as well as their latest additions to the watchlist.
