Send a text This week we are discussing two action films that are giants in the genre - Robocop (1987) and Mad Max: Fury Road (2015).

Send a text It's erotic thrillers week and instead of watching two films that made the genre what it is, we are watching one that broke the genre and one that subverts it. Should be interesting.
