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.

On This Week’s Show: Neil returns to the Magical Studio in the Sky fully prepared to talk about four movies he hasn’t seen. This week, the Fat Guys take a look at Jennifer’s Body even though Fox (that’d be the studio, not the waste-of-space actress) didn’t screen it for them. They also chew on Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, help Matt Damon squeal in The Informant! and avoid Love Happens like the plague. In honor of Jennifer’s Body, Kevin and Neil serve up a Fat Guy Five featuring sexy horror movies and get really excited over a great week on DVD and Blu-ray.
