Description
What if Mel Gibson were a bad person? It's hard to picture, but that's what he plays in PAYBACK, the "dynamite hit" studio-butchered remake of POINT BLANK where you get to "root for the bad guy!" We talk about the life and career of writer/director Brian Helgelund, Mel Gibson's torture fetishism, and his terrifying screen charisma that makes us still kind of like him despite literally everything.

In our second week of The Matrix's box office domination, we turned to a veritable flop with David Cronenberg's too-heady-for-its-own-good EXISTENZ. In addition to this weird ass Jude Law/Jennifer Jason Leigh vehicle we also talk about Black Mirror: Bandersnatch, Roko's Basilisk, and El*n M*sk!

It's a supersized episode for the best movie we've covered yet! We finally start the first of a three part series on The Matrix. Charlie Nash is back, Nick shares a very earnest love for the film, Brad reads a bit from the Digimon Are Real forums. Enjoy!
