• 0:41
  SPEAKER_01: Do you remember?
• 0:41
  SPEAKER_01: The first one had us a little concerned because I hadn't watched the movie in decades and it did not stand the test of time.
• 0:46
  SPEAKER_01: It's one of those questionable actors where was it supposed to be high school or a college and he's hitting on his professor?
• 0:51
  SPEAKER_01: And luckily it is college.
• 0:52
  SPEAKER_01: I did look it up, so I'm gonna assume he was over 18.
• 0:55
  SPEAKER_01: And he puts her in a position where he took pictures of her and drugged her up.
• 0:59
  SPEAKER_01: I'm getting a look already.
• 1:00
  SPEAKER_01: It's one of those that it it's so cringy to watch.
• 1:03
  SPEAKER_01: But luckily the tables turn on him at the end.
• 1:05
  SPEAKER_01: You know, it was all planned and she got him where she got him.
• 1:08
  SPEAKER_01: Yes.
• 1:09
  SPEAKER_00: And good for her, and good for her being able to come back and being like, oh no, got him back.
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: So I loved it.
• 1:14
  SPEAKER_00: Basically, she said, I'm bored.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: I'm bored now.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_01: Entertained me.
• 1:17
  SPEAKER_01: And I think he was shocked.
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, he thought he had the upper hand because he had pictures of her and was using her, but it was really the other way around.
• 1:24
  SPEAKER_01: She was playing him.
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_01: Love that.
• 1:25
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_01: Why not?
• 1:27
  SPEAKER_01: Gotta love it.
• 1:28
  SPEAKER_01: And then the second story, she played two different characters, supposedly twins or sisters.
• 1:32
  SPEAKER_01: Do you remember that?
• 1:33
  SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_01: And the psychologist kept coming over, and sh one of them was kind of whoreish and the other one was very prudish.
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_01: Straight laced, you're making the face.
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: Well, it doesn't that one doesn't ring a bell with me as much as the first and third one.
• 1:46
  SPEAKER_00: Oh my god.
• 1:46
  SPEAKER_00: I don't know what I was doing in the second one, but it just doesn't ring that much of a bell with me.
• 1:51
  SPEAKER_00: I do like movies back in those days.
• 1:54
  SPEAKER_00: I love looking at the decorations and not the different things.
• 1:57
  SPEAKER_00: I think the twins lived in a really nice house, right?
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 2:00
  SPEAKER_00: Big house, antiques.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, antiques everywhere.
• 2:03
  SPEAKER_00: And I think I was more in tune with the way it was decorated than Okay.
• 2:07
  SPEAKER_01: But I know that's one of your things.
• 2:09
  SPEAKER_01: You like the atmosphere.
• 2:10
  SPEAKER_01: I do, I like the atmosphere.
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_01: That's a that's a big deal.
• 2:12
  SPEAKER_01: It has to be.
• 2:13
  SPEAKER_01: I think all three of them did.
• 2:15
  SPEAKER_01: Even in the third one, I love her apartment.
• 2:17
  SPEAKER_01: I think it is adorable.
• 2:18
  SPEAKER_01: That was good.
• 2:19
  SPEAKER_01: Does that one stand out?
• 2:21
  SPEAKER_01: That's the one that stood out to me that affected me when I was younger.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_00: Wow.
• 2:24
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, the last time I'd watched it, I was pregnant with Camille.
• 2:27
  SPEAKER_01: And Camille is 38, almost 39, so it's been a long time since I've watched it.
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_01: That little Zuni statue.
• 2:32
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, I'd never seen any of these, the little segments, and I liked it.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: Okay.
• 2:36
  SPEAKER_00: Watch that again or something like that.
• 2:39
  SPEAKER_00: Would you?
• 2:40
  SPEAKER_00: I think it's the old stuff that's coming back to me and wanting me to watch things I've never seen before, I guess.
• 2:46
  SPEAKER_01: ABC got a bunch of phone calls the night that it aired because it was for TV.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_01: Uh-huh.
• 2:50
  SPEAKER_01: And they were accused of playing nightmare cult TV songs.
• 2:55
  SPEAKER_00: You know that wasn't a thing back then.
• 2:56
  SPEAKER_00: I didn't know that this was originally a for TV.
• 3:00
  SPEAKER_01: Yes, it was for TV.
• 3:01
  SPEAKER_01: Wow.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_01: I know.
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_01: And I started looking up little bits and things because that um the Zuni statue wasn't supposed to move initially.
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_01: And it was all done with like strings and different things.
• 3:10
  SPEAKER_01: And the noise that it makes, ying ying, it's a piglets that they sped up and slowed down because they were trying to get the flight or fight response.
• 3:17
  SPEAKER_01: But it just freaked me out.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_01: That little booger gives me the wheelies.
• 3:21
  SPEAKER_00: But then by the end, I think we were both saying, like, I want one of those.
• 3:25
  SPEAKER_01: I know I was looking them up on Amazon.
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_01: See if I can find a zooni.
• 3:28
  SPEAKER_01: You need a zoomy.
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_01: You're just thinking of stuff now.
• 3:30
  SPEAKER_01: I'm just thinking of stuff.
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_01: Nothing wrong with that.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_01: And I also heard that Karen Black would not watch the movie after it was made.
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_01: She almost backed out of it twice.
• 3:37
  SPEAKER_00: What a pretty, pretty woman, too.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_00: Isn't she?
• 3:40
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, she's like one of those women who like you're just put in a trance watching her.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
• 3:45
  SPEAKER_00: And why I mean, you know, it's not like when you think about it, like she's that spectacular.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_00: That there's just something about her and her aura.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_00: And when she's talking, then you just want to hear more.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_00: I know.
• 3:56
  SPEAKER_00: Tell me more.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: I know.
• 3:57
  SPEAKER_00: I wish people felt that way about us.
• 3:59
  SPEAKER_00: I know.
• 4:00
  SPEAKER_01: Somebody needs to listen.
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_01: But here we are.
• 4:02
  SPEAKER_01: Um I know.
• 4:03
  SPEAKER_01: How about she's actually watching more scary movies?
• 4:06
  SPEAKER_01: I'm loving it.
• 4:07
  SPEAKER_01: So how many wine glasses would you give this movie?
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_01: We'd like the environment.
• 4:10
  SPEAKER_01: Of course, we like the old house.
• 4:12
  SPEAKER_01: That's a big deal.
• 4:13
  SPEAKER_01: I don't feel the empathy level was high on this one.
• 4:16
  SPEAKER_01: I mean, yeah, but you know what?
• 4:17
  SPEAKER_01: She shouldn't have never gone out with him if it was gonna go that direction, but it went a different direction.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_01: So more power to her.
• 4:22
  SPEAKER_01: That's all I have on that one.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_00: Mm-hmm.
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_01: It was entertaining.
• 4:25
  SPEAKER_01: It was very entertaining.
• 4:26
  SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
• 4:27
  SPEAKER_01: Especially that third story.
• 4:28
  SPEAKER_01: That's the one that stands out to everybody.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_01: If you mention trilogy of terror to anybody, I bet that's the story that sticks out.
• 4:34
  SPEAKER_01: That little statue running around with his little spear, his little knife.
• 4:37
  SPEAKER_01: Creepy.
• 4:38
  SPEAKER_01: Creepy.
• 4:38
  SPEAKER_01: He is creepy.
• 4:39
  SPEAKER_01: Erie?
• 4:41
  SPEAKER_01: I look I think of Erie as being dark on this.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_01: It's just not, it doesn't have that.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_00: No.
• 4:45
  SPEAKER_01: None of the stories did.
• 4:47
  SPEAKER_00: So what are we saying?
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_00: Two and a half?
• 4:48
  SPEAKER_00: Wine glasses?
• 4:49
  SPEAKER_01: I'd give it three.
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_01: Three?
• 4:50
  SPEAKER_01: I'd give that little statue three on his own.
• 4:53
  SPEAKER_01: I would.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_01: He deserves it.
• 4:55
  SPEAKER_01: I wonder if he'd sit and drink with us.
• 4:56
  SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
• 4:57
  SPEAKER_01: You think he'd try and stab us after that?
• 4:59
  SPEAKER_01: I'm thinking we do.
• 5:00
  SPEAKER_00: I know.
• 5:01
  SPEAKER_00: We'll we'll get our research department right on that.

• 5:13
  SPEAKER_01: Um, the next episode is gonna be on Sleepaway Camp.
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_01: I might not watch that one.
• 5:18
  SPEAKER_01: That's another one that I don't think stood the test of time.
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: I might not watch that one.
• 5:21
  SPEAKER_00: It sounds a little scary.
• 5:22
  SPEAKER_00: I don't like camps.
• 5:23
