Each episode we cover news in the film, TV, and video game industries, before diving into review of a topical movie, and deeper discussion of a more obscure film chosen by one among us--the Morticians--and preferably one that the others haven't seen. This is where movies come to be examined. To die, or maybe, to be reborn. Scrub in!

Welcome back to the Morgue! On this week's episode the boys discuss the most recent "Monsterverse" cityweight bout extravaganza 'Godzilla vs. Kong' (2021), and Danny takes us through 1984 cult stoner classic 'Repo Man'.
