Ben and Rob play ‘Funny Games’, Michael Haneke’s brutal shot-for-shot 2007 remake of his original home invasion masterpiece from ten years prior. Starring Naomi Watts, Michael Pitt, Tim Roth and Brady Corbet, ‘Funny Games’ is a hauntingly cold movie about not only the holiday from hell, but of horror movies and why we watch them.

But why did director Michael Haneke choose to remake almost exactly the same film he released ten years prior? Why do our villains keep breaking the fourth wall? Why do we enjoy such horrific films? And how does this all relate to Oscar darling ‘The Brutalist?!
