PHP: strototime last Sunday at 8 PM

I need to get the Unix time stamp of the last sunday at 8 pm, so I tried:

strtotime("last sunday 8 pm");

This works great, but if it is 22-11-2015 at 9 PM for instance, the output is 15-11-2015 8 PM instead of one hour ago. The method above works great except during the last four hours of sunday. How can I get 22-11-2015 8 PM?

Proper, but longer, way to complete this task

if((date('D',time()) == 'Sun') && (time() > strtotime('today 8 pm'))){ //if today is sunday and after 8pm, give todays date.
    $unix = strtotime('today 8 pm');
}
else{ //not sunday today, return last sunday.
    $unix = strtotime('last sunday');
}

Hacky/Original code: You could check for "last sunday 8 pm" from tomorrows date.

strtotime('last sunday 8 pm', strtotime('tomorrow'));
