On this week's show, the Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza talks to the dead as the guys chat about the completely abysmal comic adaptation, Jonah Hex!

And why in the world did they invent all the paranormal stuff for this movie when it's not in the comic? PLUS: Michael Shannon becomes commissioner of a post-Civil War carnie wrestling league! Jonah Hex stars Josh Brolin, John Malkovich, Megan Fox, Michael Fassbender, Will Arnett, Tom Wopat, Michael Shannon, Wes Bentley, and Jeffrey "Dead" Morgan; directed by Jimmy Hayward.

On this week's episode, the guys take a trip to Franchise Town to discuss the absolutely dreadful, completely joyless sequel, Saw III! Why didn't someone point out how hilarious everyone yelling "Jeff" throughout a film sounds? Why did we need to see a flashback of Jigsaw prepping the first film's test? And would this franchise have been better served by casting a different NKOTB member in every film? PLUS: JEFF! Saw III stars Tobin Bell, Shawnee Smith, Angus Macfadyen, Bahar Soomekh, Donnie Wahlberg, and Dina Meyer; directed by Darren Lynn Bousman. Check out WHM at FRQNCY in June!

On this week's episode, the gang is chatting about the gateway-crossing sci-fi flick, Stargate! Could they have trimmed Russell's hair any more high and any more tight? Why did those people attend Spader's lecture just to heckle him? And how cool would it be to have the Wheezin' the Juice Guy as your father-in-law? PLUS: Russell Rules!
