Tommy and DL are back at it again, this time virtually to avoid some unintended viral generosity! In the lead up to the Spooky season they're talking Horror.. but in a way only Podcast Assemble can - with a trilogy of unintentionally funny 'horror' movies!

This week, Tommy brings "The Wickerman (2006)" to the table and astonishes DL by the lack of good acting, solid plot and artfully-created CGI bees. They also cannot look past the appearance of Nicolas Cage as the main protagonist who doesn't seem to know what kind of film he's in, who he should be finding, or generally where the "Nic Cage" of The Wickerman comes in!

Listen this week to hear about Nic Cage at his worst, a mysterious "Sister Beach" and an unexpected James Franco cameo. And whatever you do, don't be a honey-d**ker.
