Is too much Bacon bad for you? We'll find out on this episode of the Devil's Lettuce Film Society as we watch the sun-baked 90s monster movie: Tremors!

Tune in to hear our outline for the Tremors cinematic universe and how this movie ties into both Footloose and Dune. Listen to us play around with the Oracle of Bacon to find out who in the peanut gallery has the fewest degrees of separation from Kevin Bacon. Learn about a town called Dicks where all the food is phallic. Just watch out for the OP snek!

The Devil's Lettuce Film Society goes on another insane head trip as they watch Tim & Eric's Billion Dollar Movie and completely lose the thread as they do so. Just what the hell is going on in this movie? Is this more like The Greasy Strangler or The Holy Mountain? What's the power of Shrim? WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? Do they still have fountains in malls? These questions won't be answered.

Definite statements lead to philosophical arguments on this episode of The Devil's Lettuce Film Society (Remote Edition) as Shaman and Pinchy watch the endearing fart-comedy Swiss Army Man. It's one part Weekend at Bernie's, one part The Tree of Life, and things get very artsy-craftsy. How many times can we say shit in the next two minutes? We're gettin' weird on this one, guys.
