Quik Drop: The Burbs - Blockbuster Film School

What this episode covers

Before they actually made smart horror thriller comedies that were self aware and post modern and mind bendingly hilarious Joe Dante and Tom hanks basically created the model. It didn’t really work at the box office but since it has created and entire generation of smart ass goofball movie nerds that can’t get enough of tan lines, night vision, and citizen’s arrests. If you haven’t seen The Burbs you’re a meatball. Get out of Nick, Alex, and Brian’s lawns lame-o. It is the the infinitely watchable Quik Drop time for The Burbs!!!!
