On This Week’s Show: Neil is huddled down in the Magical Studio in the Sky, surrounded by movie bloggers like he’s in a boat of Cuban refugees, preparing for the blitz of sex and gore of Fantastic Fest. Kevin, meanwhile is jealous. The Fat Guys fight off Klingon attacks and giant wasps while they talk about movies like Fame, Pandorum and Surrogates. Kevin gives some love to comic book iPhone apps and the People of Wal-Mart, while Neil readies his Death Squad to invade Austin’s Alamo Draft House.
