Each week on Cathode Ray Mission, video store nerds Randy & Will plumb the depths of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and all the other streaming services to find the best and worst of big-budget cinema blockbusters, direct-to-video cult favorites, and everything in between.
***Warning***
Killer Joe contains scenes of sexual violence which are discussed in this episode. If you'd like to skip this portion then skip second section which starts around 40:00.
This week we've got a Texas sized two-fer from 2011. Up first is William Friedkin's southern fried dark comedy Killer Joe which stars Emile Hirsch, Juno Temple, Gina Gershon, & Thomas Hayden Church with Matthew McConaughey at his sleaziest in the title roll.
After that, we've got a weird entry into the super hero canon with Michelle Gondry's action-comedy with Seth Rogan, Jay Chou, Cameron Diaz, & Christoph Waltz.
Killer Joe is available on Hulu.
The Green Hornet is available on Netflix.
Support independent theaters with Virtual Screenings! Virtual screenings let you purchase a ticket from your local theater to stream first run movies at home. Your theater will get to keep a portion of the ticket to help maintain business and keep people employed during lockdown.
We're suggesting two of our local theaters but check your area to see if any independent theaters are hosting virtual screenings and support them if you can.
