Poor George. He's never seen any movies. Rather than mourn their dear friend, Travis and Dan have taken it upon themselves to show him what he is missing. But they don't stop at showing him famous movies! They also help George to understand how each film fits into the Great Narrative of Film. Not only THAT the film of the week is significant, but WHY and HOW. Also, they make jokes and stuff.

George loved the original Texas Chain Saw Massacre. But while he enjoyed The Ring, he didn't love Saw. Will the "Early 2000s" vibes of the Michael Bay-produced remake do the trick? (It was directed by the same guy as the Friday the 13th remake that George loved!)
Will George enjoy the beefed up Jason-clone nature of the new Leatherface or will he miss the femininity of the original? Will Travis convince Dan that the Passion of the Christ was more scriptural than Robocop? Did Dan enjoy the now almost 20 year old remake of Chainsaw more than the recent Direct to Netflix ret-con sequel?
