Lake Placid (1999) feat. Brian Particelli

For the final entry in the Summer of Franchises, the boys grab Brian Particelli for a camping weekend at Black Lake. There they discover misogyny, bears and a profane Betty White…because they are firmly ensconced in a rom-com masquerading as a creature feature, written by none other than David E. Kelley.

The boys attempt to break down the comedy to scares ratio (1:0), play the Hollywood spouse game (because Brian knows EVERYTHING) and Joe even tries out a few bad impersonations. Also on the menu: a queer reading of Hector & Hank, a deep appreciation of Bridget Fonda aka “Willie”, swapping Pullman for Paxton and an inability to keep any of the characters’ names straight.

This Week's Game: 2 rounds!

1. Name the differences between a crocodile and an alligator
2. Rifting on Scream101’s endings, speculate about what happens in Lake Placid 2
