We got the movie to work this time! But instead of watching Dredd, we decided to pack along some sesame cake and take a trip to the Lost City of Zinj with the campy 1995 sci-fi “classic” Congo. We’ve got Laura Linney, Store Brand Steve Gutenberg, Muppet Tim Curry, Joey Pants, Joe Don Baker, Bruce Campbell, Ernie Hudson, and Delroy Lindo, all competing for first prize in a scenery chewing contest in a movie whose budget seemingly runs out in real time. Congo’s currently streaming on Showtime through Paramount+ and Amazon Prime – join us!
