Jessica Jimenez hands Mandy a network fairy tale about a man who resurrects corpses for a living.
Mandy admits upfront that she booked this guest purely so she’d have an excuse to watch the movie. What she got was ten years of Hollywood Video war stories, a grandmother with a grudge, and a live phone call to Bend, Oregon.
Kynan Dias returns to defend a movie sitting at twelve percent on Rotten Tomatoes, and he makes a far better case than that number suggests. Seriously. It’s crazy. You might want to watch it again. Mandy brings pink eyeshadow, a jellyfish grievance, and one very good question nobody can answer.
