Welcome back to Viva! Episode 77 is here and we kick off by addressing our SOS, asking for your support and thanking everyone for their help already. Spread the word, donate what you can, and rent-by-mail if you’re interested! A viewer-sponsored “Rapid Recs” is next, where we give you 20 total recommendations RAPIDLY and WITHOUT REASON, don’t you dare ask us why! Just watch them! Emalie starts off with Sunset Grill — an underseen and under-appreciated drunk cop revenge flick starring Peter Weller. Matt follows up with In the Devil's Garden, a UK-sleaze schoolgirl murder mystery, and Emalie brings up the Tarantino favorite Rolling Thunder, about POWs who just wanna POW (shoot) their way out of alienation and trauma. Matt’s last pick is Cold Steel, a movie with a “definite Joseph Merhi vibe” and “lots of explosions and flipping cars.” Don’t miss out! Our dog movie is a real BONEr, it’s Hellhounds from and we’re upset at the lack of hell hounds (and at the terrible 2009 DTV Greek mythological adventure of it all). Til next time! Viva physical media and VIVA SCARECROW VIDEO FOREVER.
