Hello. What's your least favorite?
0:08
Scary movie. Welcome to a scary movie.
0:14
The podcast or talk about the good, the bad, the ugly, and the
0:17
Absurd in all of our favorite. And least favorite scary movies,
0:21
because we believe every horror movie rightfully, has its
0:23
fanbase even if we don't always get it?
0:26
My name is Travis. My name is Jesse.
0:28
Hey, oh. Go ahead.
0:30
I always do this part. Go ahead today, we're here for
0:34
another live unedited and mostly undrawn, installment of to be or
0:40
not to be drumroll. Thank you.
0:44
My pick mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi pick.
0:49
Is that a reference to something the office?
0:52
Yeah. But are they referencing
0:53
something in that? No, I think that's just Michael
0:55
being Michael. Okay, whatever today we it's my
0:59
pick. They so I chose a little movie,
1:03
so funnily titled, blood junkie. So today we're talking that, but
1:10
before we do that, do you have any announcements first?
1:16
No. Okay.
1:17
And no poles, because it's the to be or not to be.
1:19
So that'll be on this coming weeks episode?
1:22
Yes, Scream 3 episode. Okay.
1:25
So in the meantime, blood junkie, so This movie came out,
1:31
made 20th 2010. We watched it on to be obviously
1:38
and it's available there for probably ever because this is
1:42
one of those low budget movies that it gets dumped onto to be
1:46
and that's where it lives. You know, you're experiencing
1:49
true magic. When it opens up with the troma
1:51
team. Use is a troma movie.
1:53
That is true. It's not made by them, but they
1:56
did the distribution. They also did a DVD release of
1:59
red. Oh, cool.
2:00
Yeah, so that is nice of this has a physical release but this
2:05
is a movie by Drew Rose has written and directed.
2:10
We have music by Evan Murphy Michael was Stan.
2:14
See I don't know if I'm pronouncing this name right.
2:18
But seemed pronouncing. It looks like it's Ludwick.
2:23
Brecon Hausen quiz. I didn't even write it, right?
2:29
So, you know, that, that it's got a lot of letters in there.
2:33
That throw me off. So you you wrote it down
2:36
incorrectly, I did. Yeah, intentionally, I tried to
2:39
Bracken house and when I started off writing it like how I would
2:44
say phonetically. Okay.
2:46
And then, I just ended up. Can I pull a drink that also?
2:49
Can I pull it up and see if I can figure it out?
2:51
Yeah, go for it. Yeah, okay.
2:52
It's also and also the fourth person credited for making music
2:56
on the scene is Drew roses roses.
3:00
Yeah. Special effects makeup.
3:02
Jordan Brie Wong. Oh okay.
3:08
You see it load week broke using?
3:11
Yeah. See that's what I'm saying.
3:12
Yeah, it's a confusing name. It's a hard name.
3:14
Yeah. It's just not something that we
3:17
encounter a lot be readily. So something that probably would
3:24
have benefited from trying to look it up ahead of time.
3:26
Yeah, okay so yeah that's the people that worked on it.
3:30
The cast we have next Summer Place Craig Wilson Mike Johnson
3:35
plays Teddy Bender sir Era Luther place quora.
3:39
The girls don't get last names in this.
3:41
Well, of course. Yeah.
3:43
Although actually to be fair, it's not that the guys are just
3:48
arbitrarily given last names they were listed like they were
3:51
spoken aloud in the movies. Yeah, I think that's more their
3:56
character than anything. We are.
3:58
Riding Craig consistently calls themself Craig Wilson.
4:02
Yeah, and I need to start doing that.
4:04
So I sell when he walks into the house, he says, hi mrs.
4:07
Bender. Yeah, Teddy's mom.
4:09
So we do like canonically actually no.
4:12
Those two characters last names for those.
4:14
Yeah, yeah, I think I think the only person that actually says
4:17
their last name over and over is Craig, and he's that type of
4:21
guy, well, because he's also got the Wilson wagon.
4:23
I also have the Wilson wagon. Oh God.
4:26
That's why. I'm going to start calling our.
4:28
I think I should get to call mine.
4:30
The Wilson wagon since I drive as well as hmm.
4:34
Okay, okay. You get the Wilson.
4:38
I can let you have that title, Emily.
4:43
Trace. So I can try.
4:46
Did I can't read my own handwriting here?
4:48
Oh, you have the Jesse Kurt. I did.
4:51
I just see it today. Okay.
4:53
Well let me assure you sir. This is triola.
5:03
Okay I wrote it down terribly. So Emily Trail plays Rachel.
5:08
Brady Cohen plays, Andy and Andrews.
5:11
Want plays the creature. I did not know that there is any
5:16
kind of a name for it. I just referred to him as gas
5:20
mask. I kind of did too.
5:23
I alternated between names, I called him.
5:25
Gas, mask killer to kill her too.
5:29
That was it. They did hint at a creature in
5:33
one of the stories. But yeah, I would not call this
5:35
a creature. Yeah, honestly, I mean, I would
5:38
call it the blood junkie because I mean it is kind of a blood
5:42
Junkie. key, whenever we get down to it, towards the end of
5:45
the movie, Well, I mean it's I think it's meant to be vampire,
5:50
is it? There's just the fact that he
5:55
dusts when he's killed. I didn't know what that was
5:59
about. I don't know if this movie knew
6:01
it was about. This is see this movie.
6:03
This is such a weird move as it was such like that final shot of
6:06
him with the mask off. It looks like nose for.
6:09
Yeah. Right.
6:10
You're right. Be escorting.
6:11
Us ROTC at the beginning of the movie.
6:13
Tim, you're right. You know what?
6:14
This is a vampire movie? Yeah, fucking tricked into a
6:16
vampire. which like already, there's a lot of Societally.
6:24
We have a there's a lot of derogatory views towards folks
6:29
with substance abuse disorders. I don't love the term junkie
6:34
because it just, you know. Yeah, it's derogatory.
6:38
And I think there's something there and I'm I haven't
6:42
meditated on this movie enough to really analyze it and also I
6:45
don't think this isn't maybe it was meant to be analyzed.
6:47
Anyway, no it's not. This isn't this is a movie by
6:50
the way that is. Billed as a 80s, parity type.
6:54
Yes. And you can really kind of see
6:56
it, but it, it still plays it fairly straight.
7:00
Yeah, I'll being ridiculous and over-the-top.
7:02
And yeah, pretty much every aspect of its delivery.
7:06
But I think there's something to be said about the fact that they
7:09
keep referring to this creature as a junkie, assuming that's the
7:13
situation that's happening. Assuming that all folks with
7:17
substance abuse disorders are violent, but it's actually a
7:20
vampire and that's how It survives is off of blood.
7:23
So yeah, there's something there.
7:27
If I, you know, if we took the time to analyze it a little bit
7:31
further, oh, we're gonna, we're gonna analyze it.
7:33
This is the whole point of this thing is now that I've come to
7:36
the realization that that's a vampire.
7:38
I'm gonna have some questions and thoughts about certain
7:41
scenes, and hopefully, we'll get to the bottom of it.
7:45
We're not gonna get to the bottom of anything.
7:46
No, smoothies so far. We're gonna get to Billy the
7:48
bottom, Billy the bottom, we're going to get there.
7:51
Okay, very fast because he's pretty quick.
7:54
All right. Well, like, Billy the but what
7:56
was the wagon? Billy?
7:57
The, but Billy the but something.
8:00
Hold on, I wrote it down here so I can cooler.
8:04
That would be really the but grinaldi renauldi.
8:06
That's a, I wrote The High Road all that, narrow it down to.
8:11
I have my notes hidden because we're gonna work on this part of
8:15
the body right here between, you know, this, this part that's
8:18
right here between the back of the thigh and the buttocks,
8:21
that's the We're focusing on today.
8:24
Okay. So I got a little bit of
8:28
information on this bug. Ted.
8:30
Yes, okay. So budget about 10, obviously,
8:32
bug tip. I do actually have the budget,
8:35
what? Yeah, I'm kind of shocked.
8:39
So how about a hug to do you think this thing is?
8:45
As I know it's bugged. I think the budget went as low
8:48
as Hermes when he was the The Jamaican limbo Champion.
8:53
Okay. All right.
8:56
So this isn't the lowest bug Ted that we've had on the show but
9:00
it's close to it. Okay.
9:02
So I think the lowest that we've had on the show is probably
9:05
thinks killing which was three thousand dollars if I remember
9:09
correctly, okay? And we're talking like confirmed
9:11
budget. Yes, because that was confirmed,
9:13
three thousand dollars, this one right here, confirmed, seven,
9:16
thousand, seven thousand dollars make this thing.
9:20
Okay, Really no box office because this thing probably
9:24
premiered on to be. You know what I mean?
9:26
Like, it got dumped on there. Maybe it got some kind of
9:30
release of trauma was involved. Maybe they just did the DVD and
9:34
I getting it on the streaming services.
9:35
I don't know. I think that it helped this
9:38
movie, though. Like, if you have troma yatch to
9:42
it, that will give it some Buzz. Always, yeah, I mean, it's
9:46
probably on the trohman Now app. Hmm.
9:51
I considered that either way this movie has a 5.3 on IMDb.
9:57
Wow yeah, I didn't expect a score that high for this thing.
10:01
I thought people would hate this, okay?
10:05
Spoiler alert for this weeks episode on Scream 3, but that's
10:09
not far off from that rating. That's not a surprising, not
10:12
surprising. In the least, come on man.
10:14
Scream 3, that's like the most hated.
10:17
Well, I'm excited about that one.
10:20
Yeah, I'm excited. Cited.
10:21
I'm also excited because in the Wikipedia, it said used to be
10:26
widely renowned as the weakest of the series of that opinion
10:30
has been reappraised in recent years.
10:33
Did they say that on the Wikipedia?
10:35
It didn't, because the Wikipedia gonna be taking Digs at a
10:38
franchise, right? It's supposed to be all factual.
10:41
You're not supposed to be inserting opinion.
10:43
It wasn't inserting opinion. It's like it was inserting
10:45
opinion. No movies.
10:46
Always the movies and Wikipedia always include like a reception
10:51
Oh yeah, yeah, I know. Okay, okay, let's reception I
10:55
guess. Okay, sure I mean it is it is
10:57
but like still it's okay. There are it does discuss
11:01
opinions on there but normally that's type of stuff.
11:03
Doesn't, it's not like the opinion of the writer is just
11:06
saying like fans and critics. Fair enough.
11:08
Fair enough, historically considered this the weakest of
11:10
the franchise that has been realized, in recent years, I
11:13
guarantee you there's some people like secret shade, the
11:15
screen 5. Yeah, that's what I'm thinking,
11:17
too. I'm, I'm saying, I guarantee
11:19
you, there are people that think the It is the weakest.
11:21
You know what I mean? That's the internet.
11:23
That's a horror movie, fans fickle Bunch toxic okay, act
11:28
like them. I did pull three movies.
11:30
Okay. Don't have a budget for all of
11:32
them, but most of them. Okay.
11:34
So and there's nothing. I expect a budget for two out of
11:37
the three, then two out of three, okay?
11:41
So I thought that 2010 was going to be Uncharted Territory for us
11:46
with them releases. But we've actually talked about
11:48
a lot of 2010 horror movies here recently.
11:50
And talked about Tucker and Dale, which is one of them.
11:53
We've talked about Paranormal Activity 2.
11:57
There's some others in there but I can't remember.
12:00
So I tried my best to pick ones that we haven't talked about
12:02
yet. The first one I have here is
12:05
Puppet Master axis of Evil. Okay, I've not gotten that far.
12:10
The only Puppet Master movie that I've watched is the most
12:14
recent one. Yeah, we watched on shutter
12:18
which was the little one. Strike.
12:21
Yeah, yeah, I did. I didn't know anything about the
12:25
Puppet Master franchise going into.
12:27
It is there a lot of Nazi correlation.
12:32
Yeah, I think so. Actually it done and that's kind
12:37
of a surprise to me, too, that it is.
12:39
But I think one of the I mean at least the puppets are
12:42
definitively the bad guys so you don't have to feel ya about it.
12:45
That's true. And I think like some of them
12:47
some of the prequels go into like World War 2 era, okay.
12:53
But I'm not 100% sure puppet master fans.
12:56
Please correct me because I as a series of that went to get into
13:00
but I've just never Taking the dive into it.
13:03
Yeah. That movie came out, July 27th,
13:06
2010 budgets, no gross. IMDb score 4.1.
13:12
Okay. Yeah.
13:13
I don't think the longer that Series has gone on the lower.
13:17
The scores of God is about the one.
13:19
We have a lot of you, see you guys don't lie, we buy the whole
13:22
DVD pack and I feel like it probably is involved.
13:25
It had a lot of Puppet Master and also the clown here.
13:31
That this is a crossover. Yeah, demonic toys.
13:34
Okay. Okay.
13:36
They're both full moon, I think. But I think, I think what we got
13:40
was like a pure Puppet Master series collection on DVD.
13:44
Yeah. Okay, next up, I don't know if
13:48
we've watched this. Another seems like one that we
13:50
probably would have watched, but it's a South Korean movie called
13:53
Death, Bell to bloody Camp, I love it.
13:56
I think it's something to do with in school type thing
14:00
because I I looked at it, I was like, I feel like Jesse and I've
14:04
watched this at some point because I feel like this is
14:05
definitely a movie with Jesse would have hit play on, ya know.
14:08
We definitely watched it was expulsion.
14:12
I think is what we watched. Yeah, I was going to say it was
14:14
something known where this kid was expelled from the school.
14:19
And his quote, unquote ghost was like attacking the students but
14:24
it was actually his father who was a janitor there.
14:26
Yeah. Yeah, yeah.
14:28
Different. And I forget that wasn't Korean
14:30
there. Yeah, I was gonna say, I don't
14:31
know what country originated from I just I know that it
14:34
wasn't in English. We had, yeah, I remember that I
14:37
don't remember if it was so absurd jobs.
14:39
But yeah, well, that's not this, okay.
14:41
I mean, maybe we'll watch this one Betty of the way that came
14:45
out a day after puppet master that came out on July, 28. 2007,
14:50
what a weekend. I know that had a budget of 1
14:55
Point 1. 1 billion South Korean Won, which is what their
15:00
currency is called. Okay, I learned that today.
15:03
All right, what is the exchange rate that translates to a
15:09
hundred thousand dollars in American US Dollars?
15:11
That's actually pretty decent. It's not bad and the worldwide
15:15
gross. Six point nine billion, South
15:18
Korean Won which is 5 million. U.s. dollars.
15:22
I mean, they got their budget back in then some they did
15:24
pretty well then And that has a four point nine on IMDb.
15:29
Okay. I'm intrigued.
15:31
Yeah, the funny thing is, you know, I guess I will say a funny
15:34
theme that I have for this is all of these are rated lower
15:38
than the movie. We're about to talk about today
15:41
on, IMDb, they're all below. Five, IMDb scores.
15:45
I'm guessing that was an intentional theme since we don't
15:48
wake up the ratings and I am we've chosen the movies work.
15:52
Yeah, it do. And I mean, what I was really
15:55
kind of going for was Things that we haven't talked about and
15:59
kind of cheapish. Yeah, just whatever movies.
16:02
You know, less well-known. Yeah.
16:04
This one I think is kind of well known.
16:07
I think that we watched this a while back its Chain Letter,
16:11
remember that? So if they're forwarding and
16:13
good emails, we've definitely watch that.
16:15
Yeah, okay, that we've definitely watch that and I've
16:18
read like three different, young adult novels around that theme.
16:21
So it was funny because I was looking through to be whenever I
16:23
was trying to win on a movie for this and this movie came up and
16:28
the trailer played for a minute and Brad Dourif, is in this
16:31
movie. I know he is, that's the truth
16:34
that they knew what they were doing with that trailer with us
16:36
like put bread or if they're get them interested.
16:40
All right. All right.
16:40
We've Teens curse. Curse Trend Trend it Chucky
16:49
Chucky. Yes, yes, marshmallow.
16:52
Everybody like everybody? That's it.
16:54
That was the pitch for the movie that I walk in there.
16:56
And everybody just stood up and clapped like yeah, yeah, you had
17:01
me at the Chucky, okay, you don't fuck with the Chuck.
17:03
You don't. You don't everybody knows this.
17:06
So this movie came out, October 1st 2010.
17:09
Okay, I had a budget of Two million dollars.
17:12
All right, worldwide, gross of 1 million.
17:14
We are part of that. I don't think we saw it in
17:17
theaters. We saw we rented that one.
17:19
Yeah, we watched it on Netflix. Yeah.
17:20
We gave some sort of Revenue like they those we gave that
17:25
tribute to a metric that crew made sense off of us.
17:30
Yeah, you're well then since you're welcome IMDb score 4.1 so
17:37
it's tied with puppet master. I think we need to have Couple
17:41
of these movies that were fairly certain we've seen before but
17:45
can remember very few details about just like cover some of
17:50
those. Yeah.
17:51
Remember how we found the that the cursed camera movie on to be
17:56
last weekend and we watched the whole trailer and we're like
18:00
this looks familiar but also not familiar.
18:02
Likelihood? Yeah we couldn't remember.
18:04
Yeah, we couldn't remember if we'd just seen the trailer or
18:07
the whole movie. I remember that.
18:09
Yeah okay yeah there are a lot of Those okay.
18:13
Um, so I got one tackling okay. A harmless trip finds.
18:18
Harm's Way. I don't know if this would have
18:21
bought a harmless trip for Rachel and Laura anyway.
18:24
No I don't think truthfully. I feel like that, the title
18:29
blood junkie is awesome. I love the title.
18:31
I feel like it deserves an equally impressive tackle.
18:35
I now think that this does, it doesn't do it any justice.
18:38
Yeah. Yeah.
18:40
I don't think that it would have it didn't really Just doesn't do
18:46
it, you know. I mean it's a tagline I guess,
18:48
you know, it's it's saying something but come on in.
18:52
Do a little bit better. Yeah, Lloyd Kaufman.
18:54
He could have pitched a better one if you're.
18:55
Yeah and distributed, you know what I mean?
18:58
Okay, so that's it. That's all I got for that stuff.
19:02
All right. So, Jessie, do you want to go on
19:06
and tell me what you liked about this movie?
19:08
Absolutely, by the way. Um, Can we like started doing
19:12
the format that we did last week with shaken not scared, where we
19:15
both like, we both share. Good and we'll both share a
19:18
bottle. Yeah, I kind of like that.
19:20
Feel like it flowed better. Okay, just do that.
19:22
So you start off with your good, okay, I really liked the
19:27
chemistry between Craig and Teddy, okay?
19:29
Those those are some Bubbies. I was even though they were
19:33
reprehensible people, I like was fully on board watching them on
19:37
screen there. Reprehensible in a way that
19:40
still has some charm. It's like over the top, so you
19:42
can tell that it's not, it's not somebody that feels like this
19:47
person writing, it's kind of making fun of that type of
19:49
character. Yes, absolutely.
19:51
And that's the thing about it. That makes it like fun to watch
19:56
because everybody knows these types of guys that think they're
20:00
cooler than they are. Don't understand the concept of
20:05
consent. Wear briefs.
20:12
Okay. If you wear briefs you're not a
20:15
bad person by default but I will judge you.
20:20
Like it's I mean and it's your own life.
20:23
I don't have to see your underwear so I don't really
20:24
care. I'm just saying.
20:25
Like if you choose to be in a situation where I'm seeing your
20:28
underwear publicly and you're wearing briefs judge, are there
20:32
you go. It's that's what it is.
20:33
Jesse, I will judge you, it's fine.
20:35
People judge people on the clothes, they were all the time.
20:37
It's not I'll judgment. It's just, you know, you're
20:41
wearing briefs and I think that's an interesting choice.
20:46
Anything else also, I think it's just, it's, I like that the
20:52
girls were not dependent on these loser boys.
20:59
And in fact, often made fun of them to their face.
21:03
Yeah, this is true and I think, I mean, I wouldn't really say
21:07
that they Were able to take advantage of them, I think that
21:09
they join out of their own self-interest.
21:12
Hmm. And whenever your shit doesn't
21:14
go the way that they were wanting to.
21:15
They just kind of fuck off and like make your own fun.
21:19
Yeah. Yeah.
21:20
Which is cool. I really like that and I really
21:23
like to the twist at the end that this was a vampire.
21:28
I think that's fun. It's different.
21:31
I'll say it's different. One thing that I liked about
21:35
this movie is I thought that for a movie is If we made as it is,
21:39
I thought it looked really good. They did a really good job like
21:43
it feels authentically 80s. Yes, down to the Wardrobe, the
21:47
hairstyles, the way it's shot. Oh my God.
21:50
So much of their accessories and stuff that they have with them.
21:54
Just yeah. Yeah, it feels very 80s.
21:56
It's impressive. I think that the whole location
21:59
is pretty cool too. That's definitely just an
22:02
abandoned Factory near his house.
22:06
Yeah, definitely found that in his Like we're going to film
22:09
here. We've got we've got it, probably
22:11
an unknown amount of time before somebody catches, he's probably
22:15
one of those Urban explorers that goes and looks at all of
22:18
these abandoned buildings. He may have found a syringe and
22:21
he's like, what junkie got it. You came up with a movie.
22:28
So yeah there's a soundtrack is also one of those things and
22:32
also as simple as it is, I think that the Killer is actually
22:37
pretty. Effective in this.
22:39
Like the look and the way that the actor portrays it I think
22:43
that it gets pretty nice. Like it's kind of creepy
22:47
honestly. Yeah, I guess just a gas mask
22:49
but like yeah attaching the canisters of blood to that was
22:53
crazy. And yeah whooping it up.
22:55
That was creepy. That yeah, that was nice.
22:57
So when we finally supposed to anteater.
23:00
Yeah. So yeah, whenever we finally got
23:03
to the it was nice. Yeah.
23:04
You were like wait, what is he doing?
23:07
Yeah, it was It was crazy. So yeah.
23:10
Okay. That's my good for this.
23:12
Okay. Where do your bats?
23:14
I think that the pacing is a little bit off, which it's a
23:19
short movie hour and 12 minutes by the way.
23:23
Yes. And I don't I don't mind like
23:28
seeing all of the camping stuff because that's You know, that's
23:33
the bread and butter of any of these movies, especially in the
23:36
80s, 70s and 80s teens, going out into the woods, getting
23:40
naked and drunk. I think you're right, but but it
23:45
like, It just feels like it's whoa yeah so that's my thing to
23:51
at this like this movie takes forever to get started and it's
23:55
a super short movie like we're halfway through the movie and
23:58
nothing happens. Yeah like they get at the Keck
24:01
the campsite and like half an hour.
24:03
I am totally fine with us stuff like if have the movie is that
24:08
and getting everything set up, you know it's cool but I think
24:12
if you're going to do that you have to make some of the why I
24:15
like Seems like that building up entertaining, and not boring.
24:20
And I feel like this movie has a lot of school.
24:23
Boring stretches where nothing happens.
24:26
I think it would be a lot less successful for me if I didn't
24:31
think that Teddy and Craig were so engaging on screen together.
24:35
See, that's the thing this movie, it needed them to it, it
24:40
relied on their chemistry, to carry those scenes.
24:43
And sometimes I think that it Does a good job.
24:47
But I think there's a lot of times that the humor misses and
24:51
they lean super heavily on some of those conversations and I
24:56
don't think it hits and if it keeps going and like hitting on
25:01
that same thing over and over for like five minutes.
25:03
I kind of it was just me, okay? And I think that it needs
25:08
something else to rely on, I think it just needs to be
25:12
written in a more interesting way.
25:13
If you're going to do this stuff, okay?
25:16
All right. Ugly, the fact that Laura and
25:19
Rachel seem like they're still in high school and Teddy and
25:22
Craig are canonically graduated. Yeah, that's ugly.
25:27
And also, you know, all the stuff that I was talking about
25:29
earlier like the derogatory stance towards on housed, people
25:34
and people with substance abuse disorders.
25:37
You know, especially I think like assuming that those are the
25:40
people you have to watch out for and they're likely to be violent
25:43
towards you when we've got three new stories in the past.
25:46
Week of kids. Just going to the wrong house or
25:49
carbonyl. Yeah, being shot.
25:51
That's a big thing happening. Yeah.
25:53
Like I just I it doesn't make sense to take a whole
25:58
demographic and decide that they're going to be more violent
26:00
or unworthy than another. Yeah, I see what you're saying.
26:06
I think my ugly is going to be the kid because this little kids
26:11
a fucking psychopath. Yeah no he looks like a future
26:15
serial killer. Spoiler alert.
26:17
He kind of is but it on. Yeah.
26:20
He's like killing wildlife and like insects and he's just Doing
26:24
it for fun and it's just so fucking weird.
26:28
This kid is fucking, it's just, it's weird how it plays out
26:33
really. Yeah, it's ugly.
26:34
I don't like watching this kid actually do this stuff because
26:38
like it shows him I kill a frog. Which I thought I can't tell if
26:42
it was real or not, I won't kind of real really.
26:45
Hope it wasn't I do too. I'm going to choose to believe
26:48
it wasn't. This is a bonus episode so we
26:50
didn't do a ton of background research, there's probably not a
26:53
lot for this. Anyways.
26:54
Yeah but I mean yeah it's just I don't like it.
26:57
I don't like looking at it. I don't like seeing that shit
26:58
play out on screen. Just don't like it.
27:01
Yeah, alright absurd. Probably like the Bobby Montage
27:11
in Teddy's basement. I was thinking thank you.
27:14
They're like celebrating after they get the dates and they just
27:18
like, get master. They get beer.
27:20
I'm pretty sure there's a moment where Reagan mess.
27:24
Yeah. And I think there's a part where
27:26
like Craig is just like humping like a teddy like on the bed to
27:31
it's just I like that. It's like a huge exaggeration on
27:36
This whole thing, and it's silly.
27:38
It's ridiculous, it's fun, but like, you know, well, and
27:42
they're 20 minutes late to pick up Lauren.
27:44
And because, because they were having their Bobby party, that
27:49
was funny. That was okay.
27:55
I think that's good. I think the Boop and sniff is
27:57
absurd, and I'm gonna incorporate that in my everyday
28:00
life. If what he does is he goes up to
28:03
the clerk and just like, Boop sizzles and Boop and then he
28:06
makes him sniff. Where he pooped and goes right
28:08
under this sniff. It's just fucking nice.
28:14
Okay, okay, so what do you, what do you give this thing out too
28:17
soon? Honestly, I'm gonna give it a
28:19
seven. You gonna give this a second?
28:20
Give it a seven. Okay, okay.
28:22
I didn't hate it. Like there.
28:25
Yeah, parts of it were too slow, but it's such a short movie
28:29
that, like, the characters are likeable enough on screen.
28:33
And I don't mean like they're likable as people, but like as
28:36
characters Watch on screen. They're engaging enough.
28:40
I don't know I liked it. I think I'm going to give mine
28:45
as a 50k because I think half of it.
28:48
It's nice with that right there and the Killer's I think the
28:51
other half where it's slow just to tell of like two halves
28:56
because like once it gets into the second half, it's sort of
28:58
super fun movie. I wish that I had more of the
29:02
killer, the creature throughout because like it's only like the
29:05
creatures only Really around towards the end and like, at one
29:09
point in the very opening. And I think this is one of those
29:12
things that It suffers from the low budget because they don't
29:15
have a ton of cast. Yeah.
29:18
Or they could have padded this like trip to the woods.
29:22
That's true. Yeah, you probably and if they'd
29:25
had if they'd been able to bring more people into the woods, they
29:28
could have started that part of it sooner because they don't
29:31
have to like meet out the kills. Maybe because once they start
29:37
killing, they started killing. I think that maybe you could
29:40
have had that hitchhiker from the beginning, like Midway
29:43
through the movie when they're on their way there.
29:46
Well and I've got a lot of questions about that too, which
29:48
we'll get to. Okay.
29:50
I'm sure. Yeah, we'll get there but we
29:52
have a starting average of 6. Okay.
29:54
That's actually okay for this and that's higher than the IMDb
29:56
score. So yeah.
29:58
We hold true to our records. Yeah.
30:00
All right, cool. Okay.
30:02
All right, so let's, uh, hop right on into this one.
30:05
I start off. America's Dairyland AKA
30:07
Wisconsin 1989, we get this hitchhiker walking along Jesse
30:13
related super hard to his wardrobe.
30:17
Honestly his wardrobe Teddy's wardrobe, Craig's velvet
30:22
sweatshirt Craig sweatshirt. By the way, I couldn't tell at
30:28
first it just looks like he's really wet but he was like okay.
30:32
Is this part of like the like the absurdity of this?
30:34
Be the humor where Like this really ready like this guy, he's
30:38
like, supposed to be the town like big shot and then he's just
30:43
like like just pouring beer all over himself all the time,
30:46
Matthew Mcconaughey in Dazed and Confused because he's like a
30:50
burnout that's just hitting on high school.
30:52
Yeah the whole time and thinks he's hot shit.
30:59
Okay. So I'm glad I wasn't the only
31:00
one that. Yeah yeah now and that's like
31:03
coming from somebody who owns multiple All pieces of velvet
31:07
clothing and recognizes what the textile looks like.
31:11
If it's an unfortunate color that the way this was shot, it
31:15
just looks wet until you get it in the right light stuff.
31:18
Because the way that they did this, they added a lot of
31:21
artificial grain and like, they made it look like it was like, a
31:25
really dumb rough Prince of the movie that we're watching.
31:30
Okay? So it's a hitchhiker.
31:32
He's walking along is a car that drives by and they don't pick
31:35
him up. Frustrated, I think you could
31:38
have had that be the group going to the campsite.
31:43
Yeah. And if you could have just moved
31:46
this halfway into the movie that could have been them and he's
31:49
like, ah, fuck you guys and he wanders off into the plant and
31:52
then dies, I really wanted him to eat a banana.
31:55
Like the one hitchhiker and Friday the 13th, I mean, that
31:59
would have been nice to. Okay, so he goes, he doesn't get
32:03
picked up and this looks like an abandoned Road.
32:05
So eventually he's Like I'm just going to hike along these
32:07
railroad tracks, hard relate again and he finds an abandoned
32:11
building and decides to go inside.
32:13
He smashes up a chair for some firewood and he's like, cooking
32:17
his little can of beans and then he gets attacked at a it and
32:21
that we pull out and this kid Andy is watching TV it like well
32:26
I say watching TV, he's flipping through the channels but one of
32:28
the channels is this hitchhiker. Yes.
32:31
It's very confusing because it's not like only Within a movie
32:36
because later, we see The Hitchhiker's skull in the
32:41
building. Yeah.
32:42
I mean it's the fucking creature from this movie.
32:46
Yeah. Awesome.
32:47
Yeah. Like I think that stylistically
32:49
it's fine, but like, at the same time like it makes no sense.
32:52
It gives me kind of All Hallows Eve Vibes, kind of.
32:56
Yeah and then also I do think maybe there's like an odd again
33:00
to Nosferatu. You know, Dracula has some mind
33:04
control stuff. Maybe the Kids being maybe I
33:07
don't know. Maybe he's being recruited by
33:10
Dracula to be a vampire Dracula. Yeah.
33:16
And yeah. So there is foreshadowing that
33:20
this is a vampire movie to be clear.
33:22
Nosferatu is on the TV as Francia.
33:24
Yes. At like and I'm leaving?
33:26
Yeah. I'm being very clear about.
33:28
Yeah. Can't count or a lock.
33:32
Try to be very clear because there are so many like classic
33:35
vampire. He thinks this is the 1920s.
33:38
No sir out to you. That's fine.
33:39
Yes, exactly the yeah. All right cuts to a girl suiting
33:43
up in a leotard. She's about to start a real
33:47
business class. Yeah.
33:49
Billy the but Guaraldi. I like this guy's name so it's
33:56
like a It's weird. It's a weird little workout
33:59
tape. I think it would have been
34:02
really cool to see this be like a Tim and Eric asked type thing.
34:05
Yeah, because I feel like that would fit the theme like The
34:08
Vibes of this movie, but it's just like the guy on a obvious
34:11
green screen just thrusting into the air, but that is kind of how
34:15
some of these tapes were. Yeah, that's true.
34:17
Yeah, I think they just leaned into how silly these were.
34:21
It's not that much of an exaggeration.
34:23
No. Does it the workout tape?
34:26
It's called Tropical buns. Yeah, way that.
34:30
That could be real. Oh yeah, I wouldn't be surprised
34:32
if we looked up, tropical buns. If we didn't get, like some 80s
34:37
aerobics tapes before we got born do.
34:40
But I was going to say, both will for sure, show up, but I
34:44
think aerobics will show up before pouring.
34:47
All right, everybody look up, tropical buns, and tell us what
34:49
your first search result. Okay, it cuts the teddy, he's
34:56
asleep at his house. I think he like lives in the
34:58
basement of his mom's house. Just absolutely, he does and
35:01
he's woken up by Craig Wilson who has some beers over first
35:05
thing in the morning and I he's like, be right back.
35:08
When we will fucking mom, you just goes inside then were
35:12
greeted to Teddy's mom and I do, I get the impression that there
35:16
is a thing between Teddy's mom. And Craig here, I think she's
35:21
either recently divorced Or store her husband travels a lot.
35:25
It's a very like The Graduate mrs.
35:27
Robinson, kind of like, oh, hi teddy.
35:30
Yeah, or hi. Craig.
35:33
That would be. Yeah.
35:34
That's upsetting, yeah. The sweaty look was going hard
35:38
here though, which is why I was thinking.
35:39
Oh my God. Is he just like really sweaty
35:41
like nervous to talk to his mom? Yeah.
35:43
But he opens the jar of mayonnaise.
35:45
And what's really funny is it's not like a jar like with the
35:48
metal lid. It's like The plastic, the blue
35:52
plastic lid. Yeah, he's like let me open that
35:55
for you and then we get this really gross up close shot of
35:59
hers just like plopping an ace up some white bread.
36:02
Yeah, it's so fucking nasty. Meanwhile, back at Andy's house,
36:10
his sister Laura walks in and asks, where their parents are.
36:13
And he says, they've already left on their trip, there's a
36:16
note on the counter for her, they left an emergency fund of
36:19
$35, so chic The Rachel aerobics girl who says, oh yeah, we can
36:26
get a lot of booze with that. So they go to the mini-mart and
36:30
they flirt shamelessly with Wade, who I think it Wade, Wade,
36:35
Never Gonna Get Laid. Wait in.
36:37
I think he realizes that they're flirting with him just to get
36:41
booze. But also, poor Wade has such low
36:45
self-esteem. He was like, but maybe there's
36:48
pants. I get the impression that this
36:53
is like a small town in Wisconsin and like he's not got
36:57
a lot of options but still at the same time this is high
37:00
school or so yeah I don't know. I don't fucking know either.
37:05
I feel like it now Russian that he was in the same graduation
37:07
class is Teddy and Craig. Yeah.
37:11
So they get their booze and they leave and this is where Cragin
37:17
Teddy hit on them and invite them to go camping this weekend.
37:21
Never go to a second location. I think it's funny whenever
37:26
Craig goes over to talk to his like.
37:27
Yeah, Craig, and I like who you Craig Town, Hero?
37:32
Okay. I like the only way I can tell
37:37
the two apart is one has a mullet and one's got like the
37:40
little shaved Lions and the side in his sideburns.
37:44
Yeah, I don't want to look sweaty all the time.
37:47
Well, he eventually takes off the sweater near the end.
37:49
Oh yeah, he does. See ya at the point where he
37:52
actually would have become a sweaty.
37:54
Yeah. So they're asking the girls if
37:58
they want to go to the camp with them and they're like they do
38:03
because they want They are also interested in them.
38:07
Yeah. They have to convince or as a
38:09
little brother Andy to tag along because and Tom would be so mad
38:13
to not. Tell the parents.
38:16
Yeah. So but they tell all the guys
38:18
pick them up in an hour. Yeah.
38:20
So they got all their stuff ready and they're waiting on a
38:22
curb after and he's done burning in sex with his magnifying glass
38:28
fucking a little psycho, man and he's not, he's not just burning
38:31
ants with a magnifying glass, like he brought it out, I guess.
38:34
Cream sandwiches to draw the ants over to him.
38:38
Yeah, this kid. He's a psycho.
38:40
Yeah seriously and the weird thing about it is he's doing all
38:44
this fucked-up shit the entire movie and nobody calls me.
38:46
Yeah that's intentional ha ha. It's intentional like part of
38:50
the humor I go look at look how fucked up this kid is and nobody
38:53
does anything. Yeah they bribe him with five
38:57
dollars a and if he tells on her that he has to be her personal
39:03
say this way for A month. Yep.
39:06
Yeah. So the boys end up picking them
39:08
up 20 minutes late because they have their party session.
39:13
Yeah. And they honk at them and I
39:15
cannot emphasize enough. The girls and Andy are sitting
39:19
on the sidewalk at the curb, the car pulls up to the curb and
39:24
they honk the horn a ton, by the way, we've crossed over the
39:29
Boop. Sniff.
39:30
Oh yes. But yeah, after they
39:33
successfully, It's Lori and Rachel to travel to an
39:37
undisclosed location with them. They go in and make fun of Wade
39:42
for never getting a date, and which Craig walks over, Boop's
39:48
make some sews and then he makes him stick his fingers.
39:51
It's amazing. Weird and gross and funny.
39:54
So, yeah. They pick them up in the Wilson
39:56
wagon. Yeah.
39:57
And the entire time Craig is given this shitty.
40:00
Like it's like an airline pilot. Yeah, resonation the entire
40:04
time. I'm yeah, I like the girls are
40:08
immediately like, making fun of the boys.
40:11
They're making fun of the car. They're making fun of the
40:13
cassettes that are available. They're calling the boys.
40:16
Loser. I liked, and it doesn't even
40:18
bother them either. No, I could.
40:20
Yeah there there who like their dialogue the two, boys the
40:25
entire time. It's funny.
40:27
I really think that they, I get the impression that they
40:29
improved a lot of it. Like seeing I feel like what
40:32
happened was because this All of the, the dialogue in this movie
40:36
is dubbed over. So I feel like they, like, we're
40:40
watching the footage and then like they probably dubbed over,
40:44
like making jokes of what was going on at the time.
40:47
Type things, a Mystery Science Theater themselves.
40:50
Yeah, exactly. Yeah.
40:52
And I think also like, that's one of the things too.
40:55
That is kind of distracting about this movie is how obvious
40:58
the ADR is, and a lot of points. Yeah.
41:00
And his sound mixing isn't it's mostly is eating.
41:04
I feel like it. It's intentional though.
41:05
Yeah. See, that's the, that's the
41:07
genius of going. Like intentionally low-budget
41:09
80s movie, because, like, you can be like, I mean, we meant to
41:12
do that. Yeah.
41:13
It wasn't because we had seven thousand dollars.
41:17
So they get to the Raven, building a random building know
41:23
what this place, it's what it would have been like where you
41:27
would get your permit for like a campsite rental or whatever and
41:32
maybe get, you know, brochures and No, I think that there's a
41:35
map of the trails there. Yeah but the guys are just
41:39
acting like they need to go in there for a minute.
41:41
Even though it's like shut down what they do is they like get it
41:44
on. I will be right back if we're
41:45
not back in 10 minutes, we're dead and then they get out and
41:49
they run to the back of the building and Teddy's.
41:52
Like, what are we doing is like ladies, love it.
41:54
When you make them way is like, you sure is a, I don't know.
41:56
It's worked before though. And then like they don't even
41:59
know what they're doing. They're just walking around the
42:01
building and they're just like doing a little Bubby time
42:04
together. I mean while somebody is lurking
42:06
in the woods watching I couldn't tell if it was somebody actually
42:09
working around or if it was just Teddy because like right after
42:12
that Teddy sneaks up on the girls in the car.
42:15
Yeah. Then they drive to their actual
42:17
campsite and they set up there's like a flipped over picnic
42:21
table. The girls are setting up the
42:23
tent. They have awkward, campfire
42:27
conversations or Ted. He's trying to like, flirt with
42:32
water and it's just really uncomfortable That whole scene
42:37
right there is really uncomfortable, but it feels so
42:40
real and how uncomfortable it is.
42:43
Pretty sure this is Teddy's first time actually talking to a
42:45
girl. Yeah, so that's where he's like,
42:49
I found this brochure in the old building.
42:51
It's got some old hiking trails. Maybe we can check some of them
42:54
out. Yeah.
42:57
Then they told ghost stories because they're by a campfire,
42:59
and that's what you do. It's what you do in Teddy's,
43:01
talking about his grandpa used to live near this area and he It
43:04
always talk about this explosion.
43:07
That happened at the old chemistry, chemical plant and
43:10
thus, operator, like, mess something up.
43:12
The pressure was all wrong, whatever he was instantly
43:16
evaporated. And that's the working
43:18
assumption, anyway, because they never found any trace of his
43:20
body, right? He said, but what happened after
43:23
that is that his grandpa was like journaling and keeping a
43:27
lot of stuff like you know, keeping a lot of these bizarre
43:30
notes which they didn't find till after his death.
43:32
And you know, in his journal he's talking about All of these
43:36
animals that were like being drained of their blood.
43:39
It says like he caught glimpses of a man-beast.
43:42
Yeah, the tormentum. Now we get another Montage with
43:48
drinking smoking smoking. It isn't that marshmallow?
43:53
Marshmallow is involved? Yes.
43:55
Yeah. Laura tux Andy into bed and the
44:02
tent Rachel. Well, and Teddy go off on their
44:06
own and Laura like she tries to hit on Craig, but he like passes
44:10
out against a tree. He's fucking Hammer.
44:12
Yes, he can't even operate, right.
44:14
He can't hang. Yeah.
44:17
So Rachel and Teddy are. Yeah.
44:20
Rachel and Teddy are exploring the abandoned office from.
44:24
Before they find newspaper about the chemical plant accident, and
44:30
then they go lay on the back of Craig's car, they make out.
44:34
And they get to Third Base, maybe because like, after the
44:37
fact, they're not entirely sure what the faces are because it
44:40
was funny because like, yeah, Craig wakes up and fucks with
44:45
them the next morning. Yeah.
44:48
Yeah. He has some, he's like, well,
44:50
how far do you make? Is a, I got the third base, as I
44:52
don't know, what even is a, I don't know.
44:57
So, the next morning and he wakes up, he pees in the fire,
45:04
he's weird. He's wearing cowboy boots.
45:06
That are too big for him. Yeah, he goes hiking in the
45:10
woods stabs a frog. It's really sad.
45:15
Laura gets up out of her tent. She's grossed out by passed out.
45:18
Craig, r or agent. Andy.
45:22
Go for a hike. Laura tries to tell Craig that
45:26
they're leaving, but he's like me.
45:28
Yeah, because yeah, so they find the band.
45:34
And chemical plant or they assume that's what it is.
45:37
And there is a sign that says like chemical testing sites, and
45:40
that's something something. So they go in and they explore
45:43
for a minute but Laura gets creeped out.
45:45
So she takes Andy and she tries to get Rachel to come and
45:49
Rachel's, like, I just want to explore for a little bit and
45:54
Laura is like, are you sure you're gonna be able to find
45:55
your way out? Like, we're really creeped out.
45:57
We don't want to hang out here and Rachel's like, no, it's
45:59
fine. Go ahead and go.
46:00
Yeah, I'm sure. I'm kind of surprised that she
46:02
would stay behind. Yes.
46:04
I guess people, that's the thing with Urban exploring, the me
46:07
like it looks creepy in general. I know that people have fun with
46:10
it, but like, I could, I would be so uneasy the entire time.
46:14
Absolutely. And unfortunately, Rachel does
46:22
get attacked. Yeah, she gets God by the
46:25
vampire. What was it called?
46:28
The creature? The creature?
46:29
Yeah. Okay, so what is back at the
46:33
camp? She where Craig and Teddy asked?
46:38
Her where Rachel is she tells them and she was like, we're
46:41
going to go swimming. Here's the brochure.
46:44
If you want to go try and find Rachel, she wouldn't come with
46:47
us. Yeah, so the two of them decide
46:49
to go. Then she she's smart.
46:52
She was like, give me your keys. Craig He's like, why?
46:56
And she's like because if you idiots don't make it back, I'm
46:59
not going to be trapped here. That is smart, that is smart on
47:02
her part. So they go off to go, find
47:05
Rachel, she goes, but to go first, a perv on Laura changing
47:08
into her swimsuit? Yeah, Craig climbs to the top of
47:11
a tree Bullseye binoculars and just watches the entire time.
47:17
Yeah. It's just more of like the
47:20
Bobby's being grabbed Bobby's. I will say that there is a funny
47:24
part that actually Got a laugh out of me how he he keeps
47:28
getting yes, either Branch. I love is so Mike.
47:31
Craig is leading the way in every time.
47:33
They he like moves the branches. He like moves it far enough to
47:36
like catapult back into the face of Teddy.
47:39
So like teddy gets hit in the face by a branch of five
47:41
separate times and like the branches get bigger every single
47:45
time they didn't just the right amount of times.
47:48
Yeah if I mean it was funny I really enjoy that so they make
47:53
it to the plant. And they they had down in there
48:01
but they find a bunch of needles which keeps them out.
48:05
And they keep talking about like what if we fall?
48:07
Nobody would ever find us. So they end up believing.
48:09
They get pissed off about junkies to.
48:12
Yeah, like Craig, especially has a hatred for.
48:15
Yeah, this is really start, making a lot of, like really
48:17
derogatory remarks. Yeah, me.
48:20
And while Laura, and Andy go back to the campsite and she's
48:24
going to start making some Some lunch for them and Andy has
48:28
found a machete. And he's not at all concerned
48:30
about where it came from and they're not at all concerned
48:32
about letting this child have a machete.
48:34
Yeah, as I just go over there and hit some, it's somewhat
48:37
yeah, hit some trees and while he's doing that and gas mask
48:42
comes up and grabs Laura. So Andy comes running hits him
48:46
with a machete and they run for the car, but gas mask ends up
48:51
breaking the car window and dragging Laura out.
48:54
Here's the thing. The Twist at the end where it
48:58
shows the like Andy was the one doing all this makes sense
49:01
because at first, I was like, why is all the gas all the glass
49:03
on the outside of the car. He broke the window in mmm.
49:09
But if and he's in the car with her and he likes, you know,
49:12
they're fighting and he knocks the window out that way.
49:14
That makes more sense. There's a lot of moments like
49:16
that shtetl. That makes sense after the fact.
49:20
Yeah. That's what the screen.
49:22
Okay. So untidy and Oh, and he ends up
49:27
following gas mask. Who's got, like a wheelbarrow.
49:31
Yeah. Laura tied up in there and like
49:34
the creature and Teddy. And Greg accidentally kind of
49:39
crossed paths going separate. Directions.
49:42
Creature is going back to the building.
49:43
They're going back to the campsite they make it back to
49:46
the camp sites. And they find the Ruckus there,
49:49
they find like the buses that window, they flipped that Bloody
49:53
machete. Yeah.
49:55
And so they grabbed their gun and they're like, all right,
49:58
we're going to go save the girls and as they're hiking, they find
50:01
Laura's glasses on the ground because Wars glasses my Laura
50:06
like to see. And I do like this, because the
50:12
next moment is Laura, waking up, and she's tied up to a table
50:15
next to Rachel, and I do like that.
50:18
They made her POV shot. Very fuzzy.
50:20
Yeah, that was a nice touch. I give him credit for that.
50:25
So yeah, the she's getting tied up.
50:27
Meanwhile, like the whole time, you can see Andy has been
50:30
trailing. Yes, following.
50:32
I love how I mean, it's obvious, but like how nobody cares about
50:36
Andy at this point. Like, the guys aren't concerned
50:38
about finding any that are concerned about finding the
50:41
girls and the creature isn't concerned about yeah at all
50:44
either. I mean honestly there were a lot
50:46
of hints that we should have gotten from them from the get.
50:49
I mean, like I already said like worth of, why the fuck where did
50:52
Andy go because like there's a party.
50:53
Right here, where Andy goes to untie wara and then, like he
50:57
partially unties her, and then it cuts to her later.
51:00
Untying herself. Yeah.
51:01
And then he's gone and he's not hell.
51:03
Yeah. You were like, where the fuck is
51:05
Andy? Yeah, it didn't make sense.
51:07
It makes sense. Now.
51:09
So yeah, Craig and teddy gets to the outside of the factory and
51:13
from the favorite part, Greg has to pep-talking.
51:16
So know, the best part about this is like, he's got the gun
51:19
and then like before anything else he walks towards the
51:22
entrance holds up the gun and just As a blind shot into the
51:24
exception, but the gun I love. I was just shit.
51:30
Yeah. But like the whole time, he's
51:31
like, they fucked your shit up, you fuck like he's like,
51:35
pep-talking himself because and and tatties.
51:39
Like, I'm just gonna I'm just gonna wait by the exit in case
51:42
somebody tries to run out and Craig is like, that's a smart
51:46
idea. It's a real pussy move but it's
51:48
a smart idea this right here though after that because that's
51:53
That was all funny but it gets like legitimately tense here and
51:56
I feel like it feels like a straight-up horror movie at this
51:59
point. Yeah I appreciate it.
52:01
We're seeing the creature like I thought.
52:05
Rachel was fully exsanguinated at this point and she awaited
52:11
fully drained of blood. Oh yes.
52:13
Because they did hiccup like a syringe to them died while he's
52:18
tied to. Yeah.
52:18
Like when you donate blood just got one of those blood bags and
52:21
it's like full to bursting. And what he's doing is he is
52:25
drawing blood from that with a needle and he's emptying that
52:29
needle into a canister and attaching the canister to the
52:31
bottom part of his gas mask and yeah, it's disturbing as fuck.
52:35
Yeah, the slurping is gross, the whole concept of it is gross.
52:39
You don't know what's inside the mask so I don't know what is
52:43
happening this whole time I just thought it was a do those
52:45
addicted to blood? Yeah and then it's a vampire
52:49
that's may be controlling and e or maybe it's just Andy.
52:52
I don't know. There's The mystery surrounding
52:54
the ending of this, it's strange.
52:56
But um, it is tense watching Greg, like hold up the gun and
53:01
like, walking through the abandoned building because the
53:04
shots are pretty creepy. And there's like standard horror
53:08
movie stuff like doors opening and then.
53:10
Yeah, and he hears a door closed and he's like, I got you now and
53:14
it's like this little closet, so he goes and he opens the closet.
53:17
But all that's in, there is like a piece of machinery and there's
53:21
no room for a man and He closes the door and horror movie Trope
53:26
of all troves. Yeah, The Killers right behind
53:28
the door but it doesn't stop it from being terrifying.
53:30
Yeah, saws his throat open with a Shard of glass and the effects
53:35
actually really well done here. Yeah, I'm pretty impressed.
53:38
And then this is where Teddy decides that he's going to come
53:40
in and check on Craig and he's going.
53:43
Okay. It's yeah, he's yelling where's
53:46
and Craig's? You get him.
53:47
Crack crack crack, getting progressively more quiet and
53:53
stuff. So it just if I was like a
53:55
random hole in the wall and then he's like, okay Craig Stephanie
53:57
there Greg Greg together and then that's when gas mask
54:01
reaches his hand through and smashes Teddy's head again.
54:04
Okay? So here's the thing that I have
54:06
a question about if this is a vampire, why is he not
54:10
interested in their blood? Does?
54:11
He only drink the blood of women?
54:13
It seems like it seems like it because you just straight-up
54:15
kill us. Assume it is like a is like
54:17
homophobic. He's like I can't drink man
54:19
blood. Although he drinks The
54:21
Hitchhiker's blood does he, we never seen Just really just see.
54:26
So at this point, Laura has untied herself.
54:29
She's trying to untie Rachel. And she like looks through a
54:34
door at one point and finds a bunch of dead bodies including
54:37
The Hitchhiker's. Yeah, body.
54:40
Yeah, that's true. We don't have any confirmation
54:43
if his Justice are not. Yeah.
54:47
Andy has disappeared. He finds Craig's body and he
54:52
picks up the gun. And so he like it's just Michael
54:57
Myers. Like slow.
54:58
Walking everywhere. Yeah.
54:59
Except in cowboy boots that are so it was a little bit of yeah,
55:04
packed with them. Yeah.
55:05
And he's like very little boy, like the cowboy boots and his
55:08
jeans are like all bunched up, but yeah, top of them and it's
55:11
just like, it was definitely a parent to sign them up for this,
55:14
not knowing that this was a horror movie.
55:16
I, my theory is that it's the child of one of the Crew members
55:20
know, there was a working title for this movie.
55:22
I was there. Yeah.
55:23
So I don't think that they could have been tricked during the
55:27
casting and like filmed it under this for that part.
55:31
Hold on its it was called Rocky Trails.
55:34
Okay so maybe they like where the men with that I can by the
55:36
way your kid just filmed blood junkie.
55:40
Hmm. so, Rachel is trying to leave but gas mask comes in and
55:50
he stabs her in the stomach. Yeah, she's gags.
55:55
Yeah, he stabs Rachel in the stomach and then sticks his mask
55:58
in the wound and does more of that slurping and that's
56:00
disturbing this Yak directly connects it straight into her
56:03
stomach. Yeah.
56:05
And so this is where Laura tries to run.
56:08
She finds some bricks and she throws one at gas mask and it
56:11
knocks him down and she like beats him up with it, but he's
56:15
Apparently indestructible, she takes off his mask.
56:17
He's got zero damage. That's the thing, too.
56:20
I don't understand why she had the impulse to take out.
56:22
Like, what does it matter? What his identity as you're not
56:24
going to know this dude, just like get the fuck out of there
56:27
bashes hadn't run, get out. Yeah, yeah.
56:30
But it's off the mask and the guy pounces and pounces on her
56:34
and decides to just stir like ripping her, throw it out with
56:37
his own mouth directly on. This is where Andy walks in with
56:40
the gun and the creature looks up at him and he was Bald.
56:45
And he's got like ears that stick out and very intense
56:48
eyebrows. And it's like a very, very
56:51
obvious reference to the Nosferatu shot that, you know
56:54
what you have on the, on the TV at the beginning of the movie.
56:57
Yeah. You made that comparison when we
56:59
were watching. I didn't notice until you
57:00
actually mentioned it though. So he shoots him and then he
57:06
dusts like he actually like Poof's into dust.
57:10
Yeah. It's like some kind of like
57:12
black Misty. Shit.
57:15
Like, I'm just goes out into the sky and then we cut to Channel 5
57:18
news. They talk about eight year old
57:21
Andrew Johnson, LED authorities to an abandoned Factory where
57:24
for teenagers were slain, there was no evidence of the killer
57:28
man in military, Garb Andy Remains the sole suspect and
57:33
then we get a POV shot going through the hospital Halls,
57:37
which you assume is the killer. Mmm.
57:39
But then, we're seeing flashes back to everything that happened
57:42
except it's very, it's all shots of.
57:44
And People like permitting that kills murderers.
57:47
Yeah and so we're its kind of ambiguous because it seemed like
57:52
it was a whole vampire thing but now it's like maybe it was Andy.
57:55
But yeah, you killed The Hitch-Hiker.
57:58
The beginning is just fine. Control.
58:01
Is he the vampire? Now?
58:03
I don't know. It's a weird twist.
58:05
I guess a little bit too confusing for its own good right
58:08
here, I think. Yeah.
58:09
And then that's, that's the end of the movie cuts, the credits,
58:12
they're leaving, you wondering. Yeah.
58:14
What the fuck just Happened. What the fuck?
58:16
Did you just watch? Honestly, though.
58:18
Thank you, Canada, seven. You know what this needed?
58:20
What this needed. Because like the entire time I
58:23
was watching this. I was thinking things and this
58:27
could have just ended with you. Just experienced blood junkie.
58:31
Mmm, I thought you're going to say this needed its own song.
58:36
Yeah. That would have been nice to or
58:38
just tailspin just borders. Mortals.
58:40
Borrow this on. Yeah, you can't have too much
58:42
tailspin in your life. This movie very much has the
58:45
Energy of party, party party. All right, I fully believe that
58:49
if Craig and Teddy had survived this movie, they would have gone
58:51
on to party party party with those guys, it's possible that
58:54
this is in the same universe, I believe it.
58:57
I'm throwing that out there. That's my dream SQL cross over.
59:02
Yes, it goes on to things man. Things junkies junkie things.
59:09
Hmm. Well we got a-what tails, what
59:12
things? Yeah.
59:14
Okay. All right.
59:15
Well that's our Dream sequel right there, the crossover
59:18
between things. And this I did there has been
59:21
one thing that we I feel like we've been forgetting with
59:23
recent episodes. What would you change?
59:26
Hmm. Well that's that's on you
59:28
because you had the lower score know I'm actually I'm gonna I
59:32
mean I it's still lower but I think I'm changing my score to a
59:35
6. OK.
59:37
Anything that it's fine. It's a fun movie.
59:39
It's got a lot of, it's got a lot of good moments, but I still
59:42
think that I would change the Staff of the movie and I would,
59:47
I would put that kill. I would move it more towards the
59:49
Middle where you have a lot of nothing happening.
59:52
And then during them going to the campsite, I think that that
59:57
would help the pacing a lot. Yeah, that way you don't have
1:00:00
nothing for 40 minutes of an hour and 12 minutes movie.
1:00:04
Okay. Just needs better pacing.
1:00:07
Yeah. Who did you relate to?
1:00:11
I'm sorry. I was just six point five, six
1:00:13
percent. Okay.
1:00:14
That's it. Pretty damn good for this.
1:00:18
That's it sir. Okay for us I can I can
1:00:22
definitely see why people might not like this maybe but I like
1:00:24
it. Um I'm gonna relate to to Craig
1:00:30
because my last name is Wilson what?
1:00:33
Um, yes. I very much enjoyed the boob
1:00:38
Sniff and I think that I'm going to start doing that to our pets.
1:00:43
Maybe you maybe. Rangers and if I get drunk
1:00:47
enough at a bar on my go over to somebody and Boop's if them do
1:00:50
it to the bartender, if I could do it.
1:00:54
I don't know. I really did too.
1:00:56
I mean he's a kind of a shitty guy but I've his funny moments I
1:01:00
thought that it related to my humor.
1:01:03
I think what about you who you really to I think I relate to
1:01:07
Rachel because I too like to do workout videos in specific
1:01:13
workout gear. Buns, tropical buns.
1:01:17
I also I like the idea of urban exploration.
1:01:21
I'm probably too terrified to actually do it but like I think
1:01:24
if I was out in the middle of the woods I'd be a lot more
1:01:27
inclined to do it. Yeah I could see that and now I
1:01:30
feel like I would be too but then at the same time like by
1:01:34
myself fuck that I would not do that.
1:01:37
Like if I if you were there with me.
1:01:39
Sure because I can, you know, build play off of you.
1:01:43
Yeah, yeah. What Scouts favorites?
1:01:47
Okay. I've been thinking about this
1:01:50
Scouts favorite part of the movie.
1:01:52
I think Scouts favorite part of the movie was when there was ice
1:01:57
cream on the ground know so she could go eat it.
1:02:01
Obviously Scouts favorite part of the movie was also Boop's net
1:02:06
Food sniffs. She likes boobs.
1:02:07
If she would like Boop sniff is he would like doing it to other
1:02:10
people. She would not like it being done
1:02:12
to her side note. There is this, there is this
1:02:17
post. I don't know if it was Tumblr or
1:02:19
something where this guy just like, randomly stuck his finger
1:02:23
in his cat's mouth while I was yawning.
1:02:25
And then the next time he on his cat stuck, his paws, it's got
1:02:31
was laying next to us while this movie was on and she owned.
1:02:35
And I just stuck my finger in her mouth because it was just
1:02:38
like, I was like, I wonder what that's like, she did not
1:02:41
appreciate it. She did not enjoy that moment at
1:02:43
all. I'm waiting for the payback on
1:02:45
that, but I can't wait, that'll be a maybe, maybe you'll get a
1:02:49
boot sniff. Maybe I will get a boob sniff.
1:02:51
But yeah, I do think I do think she enjoyed that.
1:02:54
All right. All right, what?
1:02:56
Next? The titular question.
1:03:00
Okay. To be or not, to be.
1:03:02
Yes, I would recommend this. All right.
1:03:04
Yeah, I would, I would watch it again to a, to of two people who
1:03:09
know who I think, enjoy that type of movie.
1:03:13
I wouldn't suggest it to somebody wanting.
1:03:15
Something serious to watch. I wouldn't suggest that to like
1:03:17
a casual horror fan who's somebody.
1:03:19
That's like, yeah. Once the more accessible this is
1:03:23
not an excessive, somebody. If somebody asks like, what's a
1:03:28
lesser-known horror movie, that's a Swagger that you could
1:03:31
recommend me. That's fun.
1:03:33
I would recommend this to the same people that I recommend
1:03:35
things to honestly. Okay, I, yeah.
1:03:39
And there are certain people that I like once I've talked to
1:03:42
them a little bit. I mean, like, you know what,
1:03:43
maybe I think you should Should watch at least once in your
1:03:46
life. No.
1:03:47
Okay. Nobody.
1:03:48
I don't think this is things. I know.
1:03:52
And that's the thing. I think people would actually
1:03:54
enjoy this movie, if you recommended it to the right
1:03:56
person. Yeah, that's some people enjoy
1:03:58
things. So if you recommend it to right?
1:04:00
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Like, I think this was one of
1:04:02
those that, like, I'm not going to go about recommending it to
1:04:04
everybody, but I do think that there are people, that would
1:04:06
enjoy it. Sir, everything to be a day
1:04:07
where we talk about things on here.
1:04:09
Um, probably. Oh God.
1:04:10
Okay. Jesus.
1:04:12
How do you even talk about that? Movie is so It's nonsense.
1:04:16
You get a cheese sandwich, a couple of beers and get ready to
1:04:19
party party party. I guess that's pretty much all
1:04:22
you. That's all you do new.
1:04:23
Yeah that's okay. So I did find a review.
1:04:28
Okay. And so it's funny there's like I
1:04:32
could only find two written reviews on IMDb five weigh-ins
1:04:35
and it was either a five star or a nine.
1:04:38
So wow. The five, the five star rating
1:04:42
is a short one that I don't really feel like Like is I don't
1:04:47
know. I could read a real quick and we
1:04:49
could talk about both of them. I want to I want to hear the
1:04:51
nine serve you. That's what I was going to be my
1:04:53
main review. Even though we both like this.
1:04:55
I'm going to hear from somebody who really liked it.
1:04:58
I I'm interested. Also this person review that on
1:05:01
June 12th. 2011 called junkies, man, junkies all right to
1:05:05
awesome guys. Take two awesome girls and a
1:05:08
less awesome little brother on a camping trip.
1:05:10
Once they're things go re as our friends are introduced to the A
1:05:15
junkie right? As I have what I say Ari.
1:05:20
Yeah. Yeah, right.
1:05:23
Excuse me. This movie is made and that 80s
1:05:25
style. Cheesy dialogue, hideous
1:05:28
Fashions, red synth music and mullets matched with feeble,
1:05:31
mustaches the look of the film. Also carries That 80s themed
1:05:34
complete. With the grainy scratchy look
1:05:36
that we can all remember and reproduces.
1:05:39
This look better than any of the slew of grindhouse styled movies
1:05:42
released in the last few years. I think I could agree with Yeah,
1:05:45
absolutely. There is some genuinely funny
1:05:47
moments in this movie. The dialogue has that
1:05:49
purposefully badly written feel to it, which generated several
1:05:52
laughs the various montages had me chuckling to in particular,
1:05:56
when the two awesome dudes. Celebrate bagging a day with the
1:05:59
girls Q, slow-motion dancing in the bedroom, including some
1:06:02
truly wonderful. Mole is swinging.
1:06:05
If why isn't the greatest, but in keeping with the style it
1:06:08
perfectly suits the movie, there's a twist, ending that
1:06:11
doesn't quite work when you think about it, but I enjoyed
1:06:14
the rest of the movie. So, Much that didn't care if you
1:06:16
go into watching this movie expecting Citizen Kane, you'll
1:06:20
be disappointed, but hey, it's called blunt Chucky, so, that
1:06:23
shouldn't happen. Anyways, if you're looking for a
1:06:26
great pizza night movie, then I fully recommend blood junkie.
1:06:28
I loved it. All right, I agree with
1:06:31
everything this person said I was a solid right up at that
1:06:33
perfectly encapsulates. My feelings towards it.
1:06:36
Also wouldn't give it a 9 that I think six is appropriate, but if
1:06:40
you enjoy it that much, I don't, I mean I can totally see how
1:06:43
that would be a 9? Yeah.
1:06:45
Star rating from somebody. Absolutely.
1:06:47
