This week, the suffering is on full blast for one participant as Nathan and Brendan are joined by frequent guest Galen Howard to dive into the colossal misfire with one of the best casts in cinema history - Movie 43.

It's November so you know what that means... TURTLE TIME! Nathan and Brendan dive back into the endless Gamera series for the 2006 (and final to this date) entry - Gamera the Brave. Nathan isn't quite as enthusiastic as he usually is for these movies and complains about the terribly rendered effects (yes, in a Gamera movie!) and the guys also discuss the very uncomfortable beach scene, all of the sadness and death, hospitals operating business as usual during giant monster fights and much more.

It's time to ease back into the regular schedule as the guys (and returning guest Sharon Horwatt) take a look at a lavish musical with horror elements in the form of The Phantom of the Opera starring Gerard Butler. They talk about the major differences in subtlety between the film and the stage musical, Joel Schumacher's maniacal direction of the performers, the magical horse that only appears once, more problematic age differences between co-stars and much, much more. Please note: due to a power outage in Fredericton and a number of other subsequent technical issues, the sound quality is kind of all over the place.
