Urban Legends: Final Cut (2000)

Aughtsterion

If you know Sam Wineman at all, you know he's long championed Urban Legends: Final Cut as the superior film in the one-two punch slasher property from the turn of the new millennium. And now, it will finally be entered into the hallowed Aughtsterion library. Higher on concept on the first film but less well know, Final Cut skewers film school, gives Loretta Divine's treasured Reese a little more room to stretch, takes us on a small tour of brutalist architecture, and of course, teaches us the meaning of working in a collaborative medium. And because this pod is all about examining movies within the pop culture context of their arrival, your hosts also talk about Y2K, the Real Slim Shady, and the nearing end of the 90s horror revival. So give us a loud fuck teaching! and settle in for a new episode.
