    We planned to cover Kevin Smith's Red State for this episode but streaming services let us down, so we opted instead to watch a VERY similar movie whether you want to believe us or not, 2015's western/horror mash-up BONE TOMAHAWK (it's nothing like Red State)! Does the meshing of these two very different genres work to this movie's benefit or does it come off a bit unbalanced? Is there a reason for yet another "cowboys vs. indians" movie as recent as 2015? Is there a scene that depicts a guy getting tomahawked from his nether regions to his head and being split in half? The answer to that last one is "yes" btw. Pretty wild.

    SPOILER WARNING! Major spoilers in every episode, but I forgot to say that during the intro so figured it'd be a good thing to mention here considering this movie just came out - it's Jordan Peele's latest creep-show, US! Does this film live up to the director's first movie or does he fall victim to the dreaded sophomore slump? Is Lupita Nyong'o the best actress working today? And what the heck is Tim Heidecker doing here? JOIN THE CLUB and take a listen!

    This week on The Weekly Thriller Club we're definitely NOT talking about Jordan Peele's Us because it just isn't out yet - that'll be next week. Instead, we're taking a friend-suggestion and watching the 2003 psychological thriller IDENTITY! So shouts out to the first actual THRILLER movie we've covered on a show with the word "thriller" in the name! Was this a classic "whodunit" or did it bite off a bit more than it could chew? Does anyone even read these episode descriptions? Pooed myself once in 5th grade... bet no one will read that.

    This week we're talking PLANET TERROR (2007) and we're sort of giddy about it. Robert Rodriguez delivers his take on an exploitation zombie action movie and it'd be nice if he'd drop his current plans to just continue doing that forever. Find out what we think about the star-studded cast, the old-school 80s atmosphere, the wild absurdity of it all, and of course Quentin Tarantino 's melting dong.

Can the paper thin premise prove to be a fun time or is this another in the long line of forgettable PG-13 horror movies? Is this a turd or a slightly better-smelling turd?
