Also, we get Mike's briefest news ever (too much rejoicing) and a Top Ten list for us to disagree with. Sign the release forms and hop on the boat to this...2013-06-2500 min

Will a fill meal of mainstream horror delight the boys or leave that slightly bitter taste of bile in their mouths? After that, The Disco Exorcist titillates the boys (well, most of them) with it's mix of sex, drugs, and 70s style horror.
