The Dentist (1996)
You’re going to want to get comfy in the examination chair and open up real wide for Troy and Roger as they guide you through the gruesome and oftentimes cringey viewing experience that is Brian Yuzna’s 1996 slasher The Dentist. Join the guys as they discuss sludge drenched oral sex sequences, copious amounts of gum close-ups, and a very welcome cameo from a cherubic Mark Ruffalo.

The Invasion (2007)
We come to this place for magic, and what’s more magical than a breathy-voiced Nicole Kidman going up against alien spores with nothing but a handgun and a montage of unexpected high paced action sequences? Nothing, friends. The answer is nothing! Ok, well… a lot. Still, when you’re talking about an overlooked and relatively obscure mid-2000’s attempt at action-horror film such as 2007’s The Invasion, there’s plenty of nonsense for Troy and Roger to discuss! From a charming, yet severely underutilized Daniel Craig, to an even more underutilized blink and you’ll miss her appearance from a young Malin Akerman, to a surprise cameo appearance from none other than Nicole Kidman's nipples clear as day through a white T-shirt, how could these gays resist taking off on yet another out of this world review for this week’s episode!
