First up this week is Terry Gilliam's 1991 social drama The Fisher King, in addition to episode 18 of Star Trek (TOS), "Arena" (featuring The Gorn!) in part one (0:00-1:58:13). In part two (1:58:14-3:24:23), we discuss eight additional discs in briefer form: Anthony & Joe Russo's 2018 MCU mega-blockbuster Avengers: Infinity War, Ray Dennis Steckler's 1962 debut feature / Arch Hall Jr vehicle Wild Guitar, Trey Parker's 1993 debut feature Cannibal! The Musical, Michael J. Murphy's 2007 SOV cannibal joint Skare, the animated films of John Schnall included in the Death Laughs Among Us collection, the 1986 Nico Mastorakis action-comedy Sky High, the 1974 Hammer / Shaw Brothers collab Shatter (directed by Michael Carreras and partially by Monte Hellman), Angela Chan's 1984 coming-of-age erotic thriller Maybe It's Love, and a brief revisit of Michael Mann's 1986 hyper-aesthetic police procedural Manhunter. Part three, as usual, features briefer discussion of everything else we've watched since last time and our picks for next week.
