Episode 46: Night of the Lepus (1972)

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE!!!

 

And what better way to celebrate the death of Jesus than to join your hosts Dominic Lawton & Ken B Wild as they deep dive a film about massive man-eating rabbits? It's the 1972 classic - NIGHT OF THE LEPUS!

The guys tackle the tough questions like why the hell would they make this film? What exactly was Captain Billy a captain of? and if Rabbits aren't Stuart Whitman's bag...what is? Meanwhile, Dom has a fantastic idea for a twist ending of the film pitch and we find out where Ken draws the line when it comes to Dame Judy Dench.

Speaking of, the film-pitch this week has the BMC taking a crack at the lucrative Romantic Drama market! When recently widowed Colin Hanks displays signs of depression and loneliness, his infant son Ken B Wild places a lonely hearts ad in the paper in the hopes of finding love with Mila Kunis. It's the classic "Tail" of boy meets girl on the internet, girl and boy fall in love, boy meets girl in person and girl finds out boy is actually a rabbit! It's LEPUS IN SEATTLE! Cast also includes Sandra Bullock, Dominic Lawton and Carl Weathers as Police Chief Carl Weathers!
