The "Dirty Sons of Pitches" have decided to look into the filmography of a favorite director of the 2010s, Bong Joon-ho, fresh off of his Oscar victories with "Parasite." The guys will be watching his second ever film, 2003's police thriller "Memories of Murder," for this week's classic movie. For the cult movie of this week, a friend suggested that Ben and Nate watch the horror musical 2008's "Repo: The Genetic Opera," and now Ben doesn't know if he should consider this person a friend any longer. Available on Spotify and iTunes Episode 269 includes: -R.I.P. Ian Holm and Joel Schumacher. -New names for the Gropers of the Week: Chris D'Elia, Jeffrey Ross, and the Baby Driver, Ansel Elgort. -Ben heartily recommends "VFW" as good 80s heyday schlocky fun. -Classic Movie -- "Memories of Murder" (2003) -BongJoon-ho's second film and big international breakthrough is a methodical police procedural about a real-life serial killer in 1980s South Korea. -Cult Movie -- "Repo: The Genetic Opera" (2008) -It's a weird musical with vivisection, Paris Hilton, and the director of Saw 2. How could Ben not love it?
