The boys gather in the ambulance to discuss SILENT RAGE (1982), the Chuck Norris Frankenstein’s monster martial arts mashup left for dead on the side of the cinematic highway. Along the way, they examine charcuterie’s role in modern intimacy and revisit the great 1980s panic over children crawling into small spaces - a conversation that leads to a shocking revelation involving an abandoned refrigerator, a field……and Carl.
