On This Week’s Show: Neil crawls into the Magical Studio in the Sky in spite of the fact that he’s suffering from the Fantastic Flu (which he describes as a cross between swine flu and super-AIDS), though Kevin suspects this is just an excuse for having not seen any of the movies this week. Still, the Fat Guys go on a Couple’s Retreat and experience some Paranormal Activity. Kevin and Neil chat about some awesome horror movie experiences for the month of October, then lay down a Fat Guy Five for Five Great Films About Paranormal Activity.

On This Week’s Show: Neil returns from the pit of the Great Unwashed, otherwise known as Fantastic Fest. Kevin is stunned that he actually saw some movies this week but understands the Vegas odds of that happening when five flicks head into wide release. The Fat Guys talk toys, roller derby, capitalism and zombies. Finally, Neil throws down a Fat Guy Five of his favorite films of Fantastic Fest while Kevin ridicules him for his bad plot synopses and gloats over the fact he’s better at predicting box office winners.
