Our guest today is David Ridker, a filmmaker originally from the D.C. area.  The fellas deep dive into a film that Chad brought along: "The Worst Person In The World", from 2021 - a film with a lot to say - about what?  Well, we try to find out.

This is another episode of THE HELL WITH THIS - where we'll spend the first half of the podcast talking about all things SPOILER FREE... but once you hear the film's trailer play near the episode's midway point, the SPOILERS WILL FLY FREELY, so be sure to catch up and watch the film prior to listening to the second half!!!

Performers of note: Renate Reinsve, Anders Danielsen Lie, Herbert Nordrum, Joachim Trier.

Mark said not to post the trailer for this week's movie (mid-podcast), but unless you're fluent in Japanese, you won't understand it anyway.  That should say just about everything you need to know about this episode.   That, and we never spoil a movie in the first half of the podcasts - sooooo, Mark will be happy as long as you watch the movie by the time you listen to the second half of the episode.  It's a weird one, suggested by a reddit thread to Mark, apparently.  Glad to bring this one to the surface for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Performers of note: Shin'ichirô Ueda, Takayuki Hamatsu, Yuzuki Akiyama, Harumi Shuhama.

Mark and Chad return with a modern horror classic, "Hereditary" - a film Chad's never seen.  Our first episode back in some time finds the fellas mid-break between jobs, catching up and talking exhaustion in the film industry, amongst other... things.

One of these days Mark and Chad will start an episode by talking about something that's in line with the week's chosen movie.  This is not one of those episodes.  Recorded on the 20th anniversary of 9/11, the fellas dive into all sorts of uplifting topics, such as where they were on 9/11, or should "Hollywood" & films be held more accountable for the crazy ideas they place into the world.  When they finish their wildly diverse array of topics, they jump straight into director Olivia Wilde's wonderful debut "Booksmart", which we don't think enough of you have seen.

If only the past lived up to the memory of it.  Some movies exceed our expectations when we revisit them for the first time in years - some don't.  In Chad's case, he's never seen the 1985 film "Explorers", even though he fit the age demographic for it, at the time.  How will it hold up now that Mark and Chad are geriatrics?  Let's find out!

Mark and Chad reunite to bring focus back to indie filmmaking in its most intimate form: handheld and off-the-cuff.  2011's "Like Crazy" brought us tremendous performances from a new generation of actors - Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones, and Jennifer Lawrence.  If this movie disappeared from view, we're here to remind you: this is a great "little" film.

Performers of note: Anton Yelchin, Felicity Jones, Jennifer Lawrence, Drake Doremus

We're back!  Did we miss anything?

Mark and Chad are right back into the thick of it, putting the 1981 road movie "Road Games" under the spotlight for a quick look.  The boys catch up, talk life, and discuss this week's film (which Chad has never heard of, until now).  Welcome back! 

Performers of note: Stacy Keach, Jamie Lee Curtis, Richard Franklin.
