Episode 42 - Mallrats

The Vid Neg crew take a trip to New Jersey to review Kevin Smith's horrendously undercooked sophomore slump Mallrats. Open for business on this episode are rampant, wildly dated misogyny, some of the most uninventive filmmaking we've seen on the show and silly, scatological jokes out the wazoo.

Also: the most crowbarred-in (not to mention whitest) Hamilton reference you'll ever hear, how much Tim loved this film as a kid (to the point of copying Jay and Silent Bob) and Ol and Dan wax lyrical over their hatred of Kevin Smith himself!

Episode 38 - Highball

Unhappy hour continues and all the misanthropes drink for free, it's part two of our Great Directors, Bad Films trilogy! We're looking at Tim's pick, the no-budget, shot-in-six-days shitshow, Highball, directed by Noah Baumbach.

The recipe for this instalment? It's simple - a splash of terrible characters, a dash of awful camerawork, two shots of shitty storytelling and a jigger of the most painfully unfunny screenwriting this side of North. Don't forget to give it a cyanide-salt rim if everything gets too much for you.

You don't want to miss this one! Woeful depictions of mental health, wannabe-Richard Linklater dialogue, terrible 90s gay panic jokes and one member of the show gets very angry indeed. The strongest of strong language in this one, you've been warned!
