(Trigger warning: this episode contains discussions about sexual assault. Please be advised)
In this belated episode of the Films(trips) podcast (sorry, folks!), Andrew and Dave find themselves face to face with MURDER, INC., a film which might just give THE V.I.P.s a run for its money as the worst film covered on the show. Can Andrew and Dave's beloved Peter Falk help make this film tolerable? What scene pushes all of Dave's rage buttons? And just who has more charisma: Stuart Whitman, or the obvious dummy? Tune in to find out!
Next Episode: Big questions. Big emotions. Small gestures. Also, Nick Cave.
