Episode description
It's hard to find a movie that our guest (comedian and avid cinephile Alexei Toliopoulos) hasn't seen... but we did it! And it's a movie that many of you have been BEGGING us to unpack.
This week, we chat about "The Pest" - a 1997 comedy written and starring our favourite character actor, John Leguizamo!
This film tells the story of Pestario - a goofy scam artist that owes money to the Scottish mob. With the hope of winning $50000, he agrees to take part in a bizarre hunting game presented to him by an insane German who plans on killing Pestario and mounting his head to add to his collection.
John plays The Pest.
