This week, we’re returning to the well of Zucker/Abrahams/Zucker with a discussion of their final film together as directors: 1986’s "Ruthless People". It’s a tale that involves a vicious circle of blackmail, urine injections for weight loss, identifying emotionally with kidnappers, and marked-down ransom amounts.
Plus, in the second half of this episode, Matt and Ashley from "Mashley at the Movies" stop by for another Community Outreach segment discussing their show and the 1984 Milos Forman masterpiece "Amadeus".
