Content warning: frank talk of spiders, men chopping their arms off, spiders swarming a urinal... And those are just Matt and Vincent's real-life stories! Grab your bug spray, folks; we're talkin' spider-wranglers, John Goodman, and if "thrill-omedy" should ever be used to market a film.
Plus, enjoy Peter Lorre's review of He Who Gets Slapped (1924) starring Lon Chaney, and a sneak-peak into our upcoming Mummy (1999) episode with Max Hannam.
