• 3:37
  it's that this weekend is going to be our to be or not to be
• 3:39
  episode. We kind of shifted to the
• 3:41
  beginning of the month, last month, due to a busy schedule.
• 3:44
  And it's the same this month. We just have a lot going on and
• 3:48
  probably honestly are going to have a lot more scheduled.
• 3:50
  So it, you know, what we're doing it this weekend, when we
• 3:54
  know we can, and we carved out time to do our, your Patron,
• 3:57
  episode, the same weekend that we did that.
• 4:00
  Covering Tara fire to. Yeah, it's been a bit since
• 4:03
  we're done with. So it feels right if you're done
• 4:05
  with that. I've got our poll results.
• 4:07
  Okay. So we talked about who lose into
• 4:11
  the darks new year. New you last week?
• 4:14
  Yes. And he is really productive.
• 4:18
  Yeah. And the year focusing on
• 4:21
  releasing the toxicity and nice Mantra.
• 4:26
  I get. Yeah.
• 4:27
  So we just wanted to To know based off of Jesse's response to
• 4:33
  it in the movie, champagne glass or champagne in a margarita
• 4:38
  glass, is it acceptable? No.
• 4:41
  Well on Instagram, sixty-two percent of people said, yes 38%
• 4:47
  said, no, y'all look, there is room for difference of opinions,
• 4:51
  but we're not friends anymore. Okay, well, 62% of you anyway
• 4:56
  well, say goodbye to 100% of the Twitter population, because 100%
• 4:59
  of the Able to said, yes, it's acceptable on their up your
• 5:02
  standards. You are cut off.
• 5:07
  You cut off from Twitter. It's just me now.
• 5:09
  Yeah, it's up, guys. Okay, that's it.
• 5:12
  That's their polis. Okay.
• 5:13
  All right, let's talk about Barbarian.
• 5:15
  I've been excited to talk about this movie for a long time now.
• 5:18
  Yes, it was easily one of our favorites of 2022.
• 5:21
  Yeah, my personal top movie from last year.
• 5:25
  All right, so Barbarian came out, September 9th. 22
• 5:30
  obviously, we watched it on HBO Max because surprisingly, this
• 5:34
  hasn't had a physical release yet which is weird because this
• 5:38
  movie did well and people are asking for one and nothing's
• 5:41
  happened yet. So what the fuck guys don't
• 5:44
  know. Is that Cracker has a comedy
• 5:46
  background? Maybe he's just trolling all of
• 5:49
  us. That's a bad troll.
• 5:53
  All right, so it's available as of today, January 2nd, 2023 on
• 5:58
  HBO. Stealing place unless you
• 6:01
  subscribe to HBO through other services, like Hulu Amazon,
• 6:04
  whatever. So it's Jesse would say Amazon.
• 6:08
  Premium, really premium. I think it's worth acknowledging
• 6:11
  those because not everybody has HBO Max but sometimes people
• 6:14
  have the add-on and if they don't realize that they can get
• 6:17
  it through that way. Like yeah, that's our whole
• 6:19
  point. I don't think we're it's
• 6:20
  available. I'm just, you know, usually
• 6:22
  people subscribe to those that way, they can have like a
• 6:25
  central Hub. So I think that they would know
• 6:27
  that there's subscribe to those, but maybe they don't know.
• 6:29
  Like holy shit I got HBO. Maybe they didn't hear a central
• 6:32
  Hub and you wish people would subscribe to you.
• 6:33
  Thank you. You can rent this on Amazon
• 6:37
  Google or Voodoo you know, wherever you want to watch it.
• 6:40
  So there are options so you can't buy it anywhere right now
• 6:44
  other than digitally, but you can stream it.
• 6:47
  So yeah, there you can watch it. I recommend you do.
• 6:51
  This is written and directed by Zack, kreger.
• 6:54
  Jesse loves to point out that he is one of the members of The
• 6:59
  Whitest Kids U. No, I was fucking obsessed with
• 7:02
  that show. Back in high school.
• 7:05
  Yes. Yeah.
• 7:05
  That was kind of, whenever I wouldn't say I was obsessed.
• 7:09
  I did watch it from time to time, but and I was like,
• 7:12
  looking at his directing history to.
• 7:15
  He's directed a few things, not a whole lot, but He's listed as
• 7:19
  a director for like 95% of the episodes on there.
• 7:23
  So he's been directing for some time just just like a couple
• 7:27
  like a handful of features one of them.
• 7:29
  Was with the other guy, the Trevor, I don't remember his
• 7:33
  almost caught him more House. Trevor Moore house from bloody
• 7:37
  murder, but I know that sighs name.
• 7:40
  Yeah, so he's been at it so music by Anna druidic and we
• 7:46
  have a whole special effects makeup team.
• 7:48
  These are all people from Bulgaria which is where this
• 7:51
  movie was shot. Okay, so they have interesting
• 7:53
  names. I'm going to do my best to say
• 7:55
  them, we have alexandrina durman did Skia okay, Wyatt Mill.
• 8:03
  Nikolov James was yalla Sofia, recover and Alice.
• 8:09
  She'll pull over. Okay, so that's our team.
• 8:14
  They did a good job. I agree.
• 8:16
  Yeah, I wanted to like try and because it's a small enough
• 8:19
  group I wanted to give everybody Credit Credit where credit's
• 8:22
  due. All right, cast for this
• 8:25
  Georgiana, Campbell place to test, Bill Skarsgård plays
• 8:28
  Keith. Justin, Long blaze AJ.
• 8:32
  Matthew, Patrick Davis, plays the mother and Richard, break
• 8:36
  plays Frank, or I've seen people call him dad, I guess, I don't
• 8:40
  know. It's kind of weird to call
• 8:42
  Richard break dad. He's always like he's always
• 8:45
  playing like a slimy guy that you probably don't want to have
• 8:48
  as your dad. Yeah.
• 8:49
  He's definitely Typecast in a way that he always Rises to the
• 8:54
  occasion. Yeah.
• 8:55
  Like I'm like kind of like Bill Skarsgard.
• 8:57
  I've seen them in a lot of creep roles, which And that's what
• 9:00
  this is here. Justin Long plays, a lot of
• 9:02
  shitty people rolls. Absolutely have here, gets his
• 9:06
  eyes gouged out of the end. Yeah.
• 9:08
  So you know he always has like he always gets his comeuppance,
• 9:13
  you know. So it's nice for the most part.
• 9:15
  We did watch accepted over the weekend also because it was also
• 9:18
  honored to be on Max. Yeah.
• 9:20
  We were just looking for comedy. Yeah.
• 9:21
  HBO was like Justin long. Do you want to watch tusks to?
• 9:24
  Like, we don't know what you're up to.
• 9:26
  Here you go. My favorite thing was after we
• 9:28
  watched Ian like HBO is, like, now, watched us kind of like, oh
• 9:33
  shit. That's a good recommendation.
• 9:35
  That's on theme for the night but no we watched Glass Onion
• 9:39
  instead. Yeah.
• 9:41
  Okay. Jesse budget or bug Ted.
• 9:44
  I think this one was budget. Yeah.
• 9:46
  Yeah. No.
• 9:48
  This is a bug Ted. Oh, really?
• 9:49
  It is 4.5 million good for them? Yeah, they did pretty well with
• 9:53
  what they had so it opened with 10.5 million opening weekend, It
• 9:59
  up, grossing, 45 million, good for them.
• 10:02
  I Am IMDb score of seven point one.
• 10:05
  Okay. Yeah, okay.
• 10:06
  This was a sleeper hit. Yeah.
• 10:09
  And it came Outta nowhere. Nobody was expecting it.
• 10:11
  Yeah, we watch the trailers for it and it was like one of those,
• 10:14
  I don't know. Maybe when it comes on streaming
• 10:16
  will watch it. Don't really care that much.
• 10:18
  And then after opening weekend, people are like, holy shit and
• 10:21
  we didn't have anything else going on.
• 10:23
  So we just decided like, okay, cool.
• 10:24
  Let's go check it out and it was intense.
• 10:27
  It's important 5 is not a bad opening.
• 10:29
  But also I think you can see like where the 45 million came
• 10:32
  from after that. Because like weird word finally
• 10:35
  got out there. Yeah.
• 10:35
  And it kind of ended up having some legs.
• 10:39
  I think people. I mean like you like I saw the
• 10:42
  trailer. I was like yeah, yeah, whatever.
• 10:44
  But people see those scarce card and going based off of it
• 10:49
  they're like oh he's like plan. Another creep.
• 10:52
  I'm in for it because he's kind of creepy in the trailer too so
• 10:57
  don't know. He's Typecast.
• 10:58
  As that kind of guy, he's a good man.
• 10:59
  The poor people in. Yeah, absolutely, for this type
• 11:03
  of thing. All right, three movies that
• 11:06
  have pulled for this, by the way.
• 11:09
  I thought it was interesting. I was trying to say this during
• 11:12
  our patreon episode but I got distracted.
• 11:15
  I was listening to old episodes because like, as I was telling
• 11:18
  you, I was listening to old ones to like, come up with names for
• 11:21
  some of the fake titles. We used to only do two movies at
• 11:25
  the time. When we were doing this.
• 11:26
  Not three like somewhere along the way.
• 11:28
  We just started doing three. And nobody questioned it.
• 11:30
  And that's just kind of the thing now.
• 11:32
  Okay, so it's funny but, you know, I like it.
• 11:34
  I like having three. It's like a good number.
• 11:36
  I think it just makes sense for comparison purposes.
• 11:39
  I think so too. You're a lot more optimistic and
• 11:42
  committed to doing this throughout the entire month?
• 11:44
  Then I am. Yeah, okay, yeah.
• 11:46
  So we are doing, like, on this month, three 2022, movies, and
• 11:53
  that means we have to pick three other movie.
• 11:57
  So a total of nine movies to compare them to throughout this.
• 11:59
  Already covered some 2022, movies in 2022.
• 12:03
  Yeah, I'm not optimistic that we're going to be able to keep
• 12:06
  it fresh and interesting and I was like well maybe we don't
• 12:08
  have to do it all month and Travis like now we're going to
• 12:10
  do it on that so I guess we'll see what happens by the end of
• 12:13
  January. I want to do it that way because
• 12:16
  I think it's a testament to how strong the year was for horror
• 12:19
  movies and that's not wrong. And I already have three picked
• 12:24
  up for Halloween ends, so we just have to find.
• 12:27
  And honestly, I was looking there.
• 12:28
  I've probably already got the other One's figured out for Tara
• 12:30
  fire to, I mean, depending on who's doing the coverage for
• 12:34
  that one, I can make some suggestions to, but no, it's
• 12:38
  definitely doable. And I've got a theme here too.
• 12:41
  So it's kind of its kind of good.
• 12:44
  Okay, I'm liking where we're going with this.
• 12:45
  Okay, so first one smile. Okay, that was another like Dark
• 12:51
  Horse movie for, exactly, that's why I picked it.
• 12:54
  This is a sleeper hit. Nobody expected this movie.
• 12:57
  I don't think a lot of people had faith in this movie, because
• 12:59
  I saw the Discussion about a leading up.
• 13:01
  Stupid is a concept. It sounds stupid.
• 13:03
  And then it also is a first-time director.
• 13:08
  Took a two-hour movie. Yeah.
• 13:11
  It's just a lot and act back. It's funny.
• 13:13
  I want to talk about this one on the show at some point, but it's
• 13:17
  funny, because I was reading a Reddit thread before this came
• 13:19
  out and like one of the directors friends went on to
• 13:22
  dread it and he's like, hey guys, this guy's got great
• 13:24
  ideas, but sometimes he lacks with his ability to capture his
• 13:28
  vision. So give him a shot.
• 13:29
  Shot. But you know, maybe adjust your
• 13:31
  expectations and then, you know, it's kind of shitty but at the
• 13:34
  same time, like everybody kind of was like, holy shit that's
• 13:37
  actually pretty good. That was my response.
• 13:39
  Whenever I watched it, I didn't expect to really be super into
• 13:42
  it. But yeah.
• 13:44
  I liked it a lot, but it came out, same month, September 22nd,
• 13:49
  okay? And had a budget of 17 million.
• 13:52
  So I had one word with and this thing made 216 million dollars
• 13:58
  shit. This thing was a huge.
• 13:59
  Fucking success. It has a 6.6 on IMDb.
• 14:04
  Okay, next movie. So none of these are all the
• 14:07
  same thing but they are all related to Barbarian.
• 14:10
  Okay, this one is, nope, because it's a comedian, directing it.
• 14:13
  Okay, okay, so that one obviously, everybody.
• 14:16
  Yeah, we also know from sketch. Kanye primarily that one right
• 14:23
  there, you know, Jordan Peele. He's obviously got a history in
• 14:27
  horror now. More than that Gregor.
• 14:29
  Is that clear? Always been like a Werner to the
• 14:32
  like. Yeah.
• 14:32
  And during Key and Peele days. Yeah.
• 14:34
  You could tell ya the but I mean, he may like he got out of
• 14:37
  the gate with get out and yeah, it's like that's fucking history
• 14:41
  from there on. He's, he's kind of synonymous
• 14:44
  with the genre now and nope is one of those movies to that we
• 14:47
  do eventually when I cover. Yeah.
• 14:49
  Not and it's another one that I really enjoyed to.
• 14:51
  So yeah, I'd be down to, but came out July 22nd, budget of 68
• 14:58
  million, big fucking Yeah, surprisingly did not make as
• 15:01
  much money as smile, really, I know, right.
• 15:04
  You wouldn't think that nope, would have won the box office
• 15:07
  for horror movies either that or Halloween ins, but no, I'd only
• 15:11
  made 171 million. Wow, only made 171, that's still
• 15:15
  fucking amazing but has an IMDb of 6.9, okay, that one I could
• 15:20
  see like it's weird. I really enjoyed it.
• 15:24
  Yeah, yeah. Um I I liked it a lot.
• 15:28
  I think that's actually one of my favorites.
• 15:29
  Orton pill movies. Yeah, I definitely liked it more
• 15:32
  than us us as kind of us is okay, but it's not one of his
• 15:38
  best. It's like a sophomore slump type
• 15:40
  movie, in my opinion, felt like two ideas, crammed together in
• 15:44
  the same movie, in a way that I wasn't, I don't know.
• 15:48
  I can send my brain off and enjoy it but at the same time
• 15:51
  it's like it. I love about 85% of us.
• 15:56
  Yeah, I think he just had the misfortune of having In the
• 15:59
  follow-up get out, which is kind of a tough one to follow.
• 16:02
  Get h a phenomenal out the gate. Yeah you so but you know, nope
• 16:08
  is good. I liked it.
• 16:10
  All right. Final one this one is related to
• 16:13
  the matically, it's men. Okay which we obviously haven't
• 16:17
  seen yet, we have not I have not heard good things about it.
• 16:21
  I've heard it's a pretty bad movie.
• 16:23
  I've heard mixed things about it okay?
• 16:25
  I've not heard a single good thing but you know I'm not
• 16:28
  really looking too much. About it either.
• 16:30
  So, I don't know, I could be good.
• 16:32
  I'd like to give it a shot. Yeah, it's one of those.
• 16:34
  It's on my list to watch at some point.
• 16:36
  Yeah. Just haven't gotten there.
• 16:38
  But I mean, obviously, it's kind of the same themes of like, you
• 16:42
  know, men or like red flags and stuff like that.
• 16:46
  Like yeah, trust your gut. Yeah, no, I remember seeing the
• 16:50
  trait, like we walked in, at the end of the trailer for it, at
• 16:54
  one point before it came out. And so, we just walk in and it's
• 16:57
  like dramatic music tunnel. And then His men and I was like,
• 17:01
  oh yeah, that's scary. Yeah, men, yeah.
• 17:04
  Okay I'm concept is a horror movie done so that came out May
• 17:10
  20th had okay. I don't have a budget for it so
• 17:15
  they didn't release it. I think that's it.
• 17:17
  Seemed bucket bucket that's like in between budget and Bug.
• 17:26
  Ted bug it. Okay, I think that's you know,
• 17:33
  when you go to Panera and they're like, what do you want
• 17:35
  as your side item? And I always pick the again,
• 17:40
  thinking more of like Tim and Eric's, plug it plug it.
• 17:45
  I think it's a theme with a 24 movies because I almost put
• 17:49
  another one on there. Okay.
• 17:51
  Yeah. I changed my mind last minute.
• 17:52
  That was also a 24 and they didn't have a bunch of listed.
• 17:55
  Also trying to think of what an 24 maybe came out of this.
• 17:58
  The only tell you what it would have been.
• 17:59
  Yeah. And I was bodies, bodies bodies.
• 18:02
  We're going to be talking about that at some point to.
• 18:04
  Yeah. And which I think that that's
• 18:06
  another Contender for movies to compare with this month,
• 18:11
  probably terrified the same. So yeah, no budget listed but it
• 18:16
  ended up making 11.2 million. Okay, 6.1 on IMDb so it's not
• 18:22
  good like Bad. IMDB ranking.
• 18:24
  All of these actually are pretty good.
• 18:25
  That's the lowest one of them all.
• 18:27
  Highest one barbarian up in the 7s.
• 18:30
  But all these other in sixes. Okay, pretty good.
• 18:33
  Not too bad. Like I said, strong gear for
• 18:35
  horror movies. So alright, only have one tag
• 18:39
  line, unfortunately. Okay, come for a night.
• 18:43
  Stay forever. That sounds like if you had to
• 18:46
  write a one-sentence description of the error when sentence
• 18:50
  synopsis of the song Hotel, California by the Eagles.
• 18:54
  Yeah, right. Um, I really don't think Great
• 19:00
  personally. No, it's not even on the main
• 19:02
  poster either. It's like this third poster that
• 19:06
  I found buried deep on IMDb, but like, the main posters just like
• 19:11
  from the people who brought you it and it's like, okay, okay, I
• 19:15
  guess that explains Bill Skarsgard a little bit more.
• 19:17
  They're just really trying to bank on these names because, you
• 19:20
  know, obviously it was fucking huge.
• 19:22
  Yeah. Okay.
• 19:25
  So on to the fun facts, this movie obviously, is Fired by
• 19:32
  well, maybe not obviously, but the whole theme is about
• 19:35
  trusting, you to go with red flags and he got that idea.
• 19:38
  After he read the book, The Gift of fear, by Gavin de Becker,
• 19:42
  which is basically a book about advising people on how to
• 19:46
  protect themselves against threats, and there's a whole
• 19:49
  section dedicated to women encouraging them to listen to
• 19:52
  that inner alarm, that goes off with interactions with men,
• 19:56
  which spoiler alert that goes off a lot higher for women.
• 19:59
  Then it does for men and that's what she said.
• 20:01
  Very evident in this movie. Yeah.
• 20:03
  So what he did after he did that, he let that marinate for a
• 20:07
  while and he kind of just thought about the difference
• 20:09
  about how men and women interact with each other in public.
• 20:14
  Or, you know, like in an instance like, it was like a
• 20:17
  story in one of the interviews from New York Times, which is
• 20:20
  where I got most, this information right here, he was
• 20:23
  talking about, he was on a hike and he was crossing paths with a
• 20:26
  woman and he's like, what do I do too?
• 20:29
  Make myself not as threatening because I know that she's
• 20:32
  probably thinking, you know, like the inner Flags or like the
• 20:35
  inner alarms are going off and it's natural, but you know, it's
• 20:39
  like, oh no, he he's trying to recognize that it is a thing
• 20:43
  that women have to worry about men, not so much, he's not
• 20:46
  worried about her. As at their, he's like, how do I
• 20:49
  not appear to be a threat? My, so I got my hair done this
• 20:52
  weekend and my stylist. And I were talking about this
• 20:56
  about how men will do stuff that in their, It is probably just
• 21:00
  friendly and they don't realize that it comes across as
• 21:03
  incredibly invasive and boundary-pushing.
• 21:06
  Oh yeah, because and we'll talk about this more.
• 21:10
  As we get into the movie, socially women are trained to
• 21:14
  respond in a certain way out of self-preservation.
• 21:19
  So that becomes a whole thing to.
• 21:21
  You can't. If so if you post something to
• 21:23
  your Instagram stories and some dude hops up in the DM and he
• 21:28
  was like Like just a bunch of like heart eyes emoji is and
• 21:32
  like looking great. Probably innocent maybe not
• 21:38
  feels creepy it does I would never do that.
• 21:41
  That's such a good like no offense to people who do that
• 21:44
  and have good intentions. But like for my perspective, I
• 21:48
  feel like doing that is not exactly sending a good message
• 21:52
  in it like it happened so frequently and it's just like,
• 21:56
  you know, if you're running because I mean she's a stylist,
• 21:59
  she's got The hair account. So if you're doing something
• 22:03
  public facing trying to have business, it's like what do you
• 22:07
  do to be cordial and grow your customer base while also keeping
• 22:13
  yourself protected? Yeah.
• 22:15
  And that's part of the reason because sometimes people will
• 22:18
  laugh a little bit that way your accounts, but I get that layer
• 22:21
  of protection with the two of us being evil laugh about that.
• 22:26
  Not like, you know, there's the whole joke about like a couple
• 22:28
  sharing accounts. I know is a little bit different
• 22:30
  for us, but there are plenty of podcasts out.
• 22:32
  There were like, Two Hosts have separate accounts and then
• 22:36
  they've got a joint podcast account, whereas we have chosen
• 22:40
  just to focus on the joint podcast account for a myriad of
• 22:43
  reasons. But that on my end being a big
• 22:46
  one. Yeah.
• 22:47
  Um, I don't know what it is for me.
• 22:48
  I feel I just feel more comfortable doing that instead
• 22:52
  of like for my own account. I don't know why.
• 22:55
  It's just like, I feel like there's that like barrier and
• 22:58
  I'm like, there's like Shelter. I don't even know because like
• 23:02
  it's so obvious. It's me.
• 23:03
  I'm not like hiding myself. Yeah.
• 23:07
  Okay, so he read that. Let it sit for a little bit.
• 23:11
  So he began writing a scene and the goal for the scene was to
• 23:15
  basically write as many red flags that are men, wouldn't
• 23:18
  think twice about, but every woman would boom.
• 23:21
  Boom, boom boom. So this ended up turning out to
• 23:25
  be the opening sequence that we get.
• 23:27
  Yes, Travis and I were playing. Being our own little drinking
• 23:30
  game, which is drink every time. There's a red flag.
• 23:34
  And like, basically, we were just chug, chug chug.
• 23:38
  This is during the first 30 minutes and then, Justin Long
• 23:41
  comes on screen. And any time he opens his mouth.
• 23:45
  Yeah. He's like a walking red.
• 23:46
  Yeah, it's the entire time. And so, it's like the opening
• 23:49
  sequence. Like, the whole point is like
• 23:51
  red flag, red flag. So like he just was like, okay,
• 23:54
  I'm going to write a scene about a double booked Airbnb and just
• 23:59
  kind of A way to go from there. It's interesting.
• 24:01
  He he kind of wrote to a certain point to where he got frustrated
• 24:06
  and then he like decided to end it with a giant naked woman
• 24:11
  coming out of nowhere and smashing his head.
• 24:13
  He's like, holy shit. That surprised me.
• 24:14
  This is interesting. I think I might have a movie
• 24:17
  here, so he decided to go along with and just build off of that.
• 24:22
  He kind of played by this rule that people try to surprise
• 24:26
  himself that way if he knows that he's surprising himself.
• 24:29
  If he should be surprising the audience to, okay, which I think
• 24:32
  is effective. But yeah, here, because this
• 24:35
  movie goes against a lot of your expectations, it really does.
• 24:39
  And I think that's part of what was so successful about it for
• 24:42
  me. Yeah, personally myself too,
• 24:45
  because even like, with the trailer and this is a movie that
• 24:48
  I still recommend, you don't watch the trailer.
• 24:50
  However, the trailer did a great job of not ruining everything.
• 24:55
  It's kind of like watching the trailer for a cabin in the
• 24:56
  woods. Yeah, it kind of is in really
• 24:59
  your baby. We getting a trailer for the
• 25:01
  first half of the movie or the first segment.
• 25:03
  Yeah, are stacked. Yeah, it's like the first 30
• 25:05
  minutes or so it doesn't even reveal anything.
• 25:08
  It just kind of like it continues to plant in your mind
• 25:12
  that Bill Skarsgard is a creep and you should be kind of wary
• 25:15
  of him, and it doesn't have like the writing is really great for
• 25:18
  this, but also casting till Skarsgård, I think is perfect
• 25:21
  because he's coming off of being Penny wise.
• 25:24
  And that, yeah, I also know that this movie was not as widely
• 25:27
  seen, but he's a total. Little greasy creep ball in
• 25:31
  assassination, Nation as well. So those are the first two
• 25:35
  things I think of with Bill screws guard.
• 25:38
  Yeah. He he tends to play The Creep
• 25:40
  isn't. He's in another movie that we
• 25:42
  watched to. I can't fucking remember what it
• 25:43
  is. Wasn't he in tragedy girls?
• 25:47
  To me have this when I was thinking tragedy girls but I'm
• 25:49
  like, was it him or was it petite Huey how it is petite
• 25:53
  Hugh? Yeah, because like I'm like, if
• 25:55
  they feel they feel interchangeable and that role
• 25:57
  for whatever reason and Petit, jury does not like, give off
• 26:02
  that Vibe at all. Huey is like the good and
• 26:06
  business cards cards than bad. Like, I think he might, they're
• 26:10
  opposite sides of the coin. He might be in that movie too,
• 26:14
  but Josh Hutcherson the movie, so it's not Josh.
• 26:16
  Hutcherson because Josh, Hutcherson is kind of kind of
• 26:18
  the creep in that. Are you looking it up right now?
• 26:20
  I am absolutely, looking it up. Okay.
• 26:22
  Well, I'm just gonna look of those Skarsgard and go from
• 26:26
  there, instead of trying to go through tragedy girls.
• 26:29
  Need to find a role where he is a likable dude.
• 26:33
  Yeah so you because here's the thing with this movie is that
• 26:36
  I'm still not 100%. He wouldn't have turned out to
• 26:38
  like attempt to murder test. I think I think we good I he is
• 26:42
  actually I take that back. He's a likable dude, in this
• 26:45
  movie and I think that he is kind of sat kreger because he's
• 26:50
  kind of in this movie how Zack Ryder was talking about that
• 26:54
  instance of him, hiking and coming across that woman.
• 26:56
  He's like I'm trying my best to I would say you're probably
• 27:00
  sketched out by me but here I'm trying to make it good for you.
• 27:04
  Okay he was not in tragedy girls and I also like forget that I
• 27:08
  don't think he's actually like his family is not American
• 27:14
  directly. I don't think right?
• 27:16
  No, I don't think so because he's got a lot of movies in
• 27:19
  here. They're like pecan Greener.
• 27:22
  I don't think he really made live it.
• 27:25
  These fogger Vic a name for himself over here until So it
• 27:30
  he's got like I mean the Skarsgård just like a whole,
• 27:33
  he's a Swedish. Yeah, I know he's an Epi baby.
• 27:36
  Yeah, there's actually I'm not anti nepo baby.
• 27:39
  You just have to like acknowledge that you do have
• 27:40
  certain advantages. I mean, it is what it is.
• 27:43
  Yeah. It's like it's a thing.
• 27:46
  Bill is the Von Gunther Skarsgard.
• 27:49
  Oh yeah. That's his full name.
• 27:50
  All right, so okay. So after he wrote that first
• 27:55
  half he wanted to design the second half of the movie.
• 27:59
  Say complete contrast. So he wanted instead of like
• 28:02
  somebody acknowledging, the red flags and kind of like, working
• 28:08
  based off of those, he wanted to write a predator that has no
• 28:13
  awareness for any of the red flags.
• 28:16
  Here's the thing, Keith, it's the person that the News tells
• 28:21
  you, you should be afraid of. Yeah.
• 28:23
  But you may or may not run into them.
• 28:26
  AJ is the person that absolutely fucking exist and you are going
• 28:31
  to run into several of them per day.
• 28:35
  People like news. Just a misunderstanding.
• 28:37
  Yeah, yeah, definitely. He like I said, he's the walking
• 28:40
  red flag. So he basically wanted to just
• 28:43
  have like the two halves there and then he wanted them to
• 28:46
  converge at one point or towards the end of the movie.
• 28:49
  Originally, AJ was supposed to or he wanted Zac Efron
• 28:54
  originally to play AJ. The original character was
• 28:58
  written as a him Bo. He said which is how he
• 29:02
  originally imagined it it's just picturing that was like yeah
• 29:05
  that brings a totally different energy like I think Justin long
• 29:08
  did great but I love the concept of Zac Efron being in there.
• 29:11
  Yeah. What was that guy front decline.
• 29:13
  He did not want to be Associated.
• 29:14
  I think the only way you can get Zac Efron to sign onto your
• 29:17
  movie is you have to promise him that there's a physical
• 29:20
  transformation like he has to like be able to do something to
• 29:23
  his body and being a him by was just Zac Efron already.
• 29:27
  So yeah. So after that he got Justin
• 29:31
  along for the part and decided to retool the character based
• 29:34
  off of Justin, Long's he described him warm disarming and
• 29:39
  Charming personality. Which I think that's fair.
• 29:42
  I think, even though, Justin along plays an asshole
• 29:46
  character, in a lot of horror movies, he does have that
• 29:48
  certain charm to him. He's got try, wouldn't call him
• 29:52
  warm, but he does like have a certain energy that like small
• 29:57
  doses If You Don't See. like, if you don't bring up, Any topics
• 30:03
  that he's going to immediately out himself as a douchebag.
• 30:06
  I think he's the lovable asshole in the friend group.
• 30:09
  Yeah, maybe, yeah. And I really, I think that's
• 30:12
  what it is. Okay, moving on, let's talk
• 30:15
  about mother for a bit. Okay, what I just, I'm ready to
• 30:21
  hear your fun facts. Okay.
• 30:23
  So the guy that played mother essentially had to be naked for
• 30:26
  the entire thing. He only has only wearing a
• 30:27
  thong. He didn't really, they didn't
• 30:31
  have Of time to work with him on the special effects or like the
• 30:35
  Practical makeup effects for him because he interviewed for the
• 30:39
  rollover Zoom due to the pandemic.
• 30:42
  Also, it's filmed in Bulgaria so he was unable to be in Bulgaria
• 30:46
  with the special effects team. So yeah, they didn't really,
• 30:49
  they didn't really have anything to go based off.
• 30:51
  They had to figure out as he arrived for filming, the
• 30:55
  original look, apparently, according to him, was more
• 30:59
  cartoonish. So they had to To it and make it
• 31:03
  more believable, I guess if you can make it believable, but he
• 31:07
  said that they had like these giant teeth like big breasts and
• 31:12
  big ass and it just kind of looked weird proportion wise but
• 31:16
  they ended up sculpting it down to getting it to like a nice
• 31:18
  little creepy good-looking no, whoop to it.
• 31:23
  Craigers set a soft roll for himself for this.
• 31:26
  He didn't want okay, he wanted to use practical effects as much
• 31:30
  as possible. He he didn't allow himself to
• 31:33
  use anything that John Carpenter wouldn't be able to use for the
• 31:36
  thing. So if there was any technology
• 31:39
  that wasn't available back, then he wouldn't be able to use it
• 31:42
  for this. The only major CGI in the movie
• 31:46
  is when it flashbacks the 1980s with Richard break and it's the
• 31:50
  grass because apparently, they couldn't actually get a good
• 31:54
  grass to grow for the scene there.
• 31:56
  So they ended up just CG it. Fully looked like AstroTurf.
• 32:01
  Yeah, it did. So, yeah, that's what I assumed
• 32:04
  it was. It's like fucking neon.
• 32:08
  Neon, is that the right word? Oh no.
• 32:10
  It's bright as hell. Either way.
• 32:12
  It's fucking green. But yeah.
• 32:15
  Okay, that's it for my phone fax.
• 32:17
  Okay, Jesse. Wait on me.
• 32:19
  Good bad. Ugly absurd.
• 32:21
  Oh, I love this movie. I'm Anna.
• 32:27
  Honestly, I think I'm gonna, I'm gonna go out start the year hot.
• 32:33
  I'm going to say this is a 10 again, for me, because it's the
• 32:37
  first movie in a long time. The in the theater was making me
• 32:41
  squirm in my seat. I was physically uncomfortable.
• 32:45
  I had that little voice in the back of my head.
• 32:47
  Being like, no, no, no, no, do not absolute danger, do not
• 32:53
  pass, go like it, it really hits that.
• 32:56
  That really well. Yeah, so I think just in terms
• 33:00
  of tension and I don't even mind the, the tonal shifts.
• 33:05
  I think it came at a very necessary time and I think that
• 33:11
  by his way of writing it and allowing him to be surprised by
• 33:15
  the script was good because it didn't feel like, okay well I
• 33:19
  have to keep the story here. What do I do now?
• 33:22
  Gave himself and the audience. A little bit of a break away
• 33:25
  from what's happening in the bay.
• 33:26
  Basement and we're going to, okay, how do we get back here?
• 33:29
  How do we introduce this new character?
• 33:30
  How do we continue the conversation that we were having
• 33:34
  before in a way? That feels different contexts.
• 33:40
  Like yeah, same conversation but like a different perspective
• 33:43
  different scenario. Yeah, yeah.
• 33:46
  So I think that I think that it's all just really effective
• 33:48
  for me. Okay, the bad, Honestly, like I
• 33:54
  don't I don't have a lot of bad for it.
• 33:58
  Okay. I mean maybe I'll maybe I'll
• 34:01
  spot something out as we're talking about it but I think
• 34:04
  it's just it's a really solidly done movie.
• 34:07
  The Ugly. I know there's a lot of fatigue
• 34:12
  in the horror Community right now about like, oh, we're going
• 34:15
  to make this deformed naked woman.
• 34:19
  Yeah, the monster and there's like an added layer of ich.
• 34:24
  When you cast a man to play that, I appreciate that.
• 34:30
  They worked on the Prosthetics to not make it seem so
• 34:33
  cartoonish. But I don't know, I didn't
• 34:38
  realize that like It feels in a way like, why does it have to be
• 34:45
  a man playing this deformed woman?
• 34:47
  And there's like an element potentially like transphobia
• 34:50
  there that like yeah. You know what I mean?
• 34:54
  And I can't articulate it. Super, super well.
• 34:57
  Again, I'm going to refer to the wives Colangelo because they've
• 34:59
  kind of talked about this and they talked about it a lot on
• 35:03
  their black Christmas episode, and they said they did
• 35:06
  appreciate this portrayal. More than say, a S in the 2006,
• 35:12
  black Christmas there because they talked about Barbarian know
• 35:16
  they talked about 1974 black Christmas but they brought up
• 35:20
  the whole Agnes thing which was a big part of what they didn't
• 35:22
  like about 2006. Oh yeah.
• 35:25
  And they referred to Barbarian and they said it's a similar
• 35:28
  thing but it's a little bit different because there's a lot
• 35:30
  more heavy Prosthetics and makeup involved here.
• 35:33
  Yeah, I don't I don't know. I mean, I think the intention
• 35:36
  was more to make like a monster but see, that's the problem.
• 35:41
  Yeah, we're going to put a man. We all just woman to be a
• 35:45
  monster. So we're going to put a man and
• 35:47
  woman's breasts that you see what I mean is that kind of like
• 35:50
  why was this the decision? You know what I mean?
• 35:54
  Like, yeah, even if it wasn't from a place of transphobia, it
• 35:59
  has like certain elements of that to it.
• 36:02
  Okay, so I don't know. And again I'm not going to say
• 36:05
  that I have like any place of authority to speak on that.
• 36:10
  Definitely go. Listen to trans folks opinions
• 36:14
  on that. A lot of people have said, and
• 36:18
  written about it. A lot more eloquently than I
• 36:20
  just said right now. Wonder if people it's just food
• 36:23
  for thought, I haven't really looked at up, but I wonder if
• 36:26
  there is a discussion about that out there.
• 36:28
  Yeah, I'm sure I'm sure there is, like I said, it was just a
• 36:31
  little bit of a blurb on that episode of the sun's at prom,
• 36:34
  but it did kind of get me thinking about it a little bit
• 36:37
  more critically. Okay, in a way that I haven't in
• 36:39
  the past, Past. So and that might be just part
• 36:42
  of, you know, recency bias for me having that thought put in
• 36:46
  there. But I do think it's important to
• 36:49
  to examine, okay? So and then the Absurd just can
• 36:54
  Justin long. So I get his character like he
• 36:57
  is so reprehensible and I hate that I have moments where like I
• 37:03
  laugh really hard at him also. Yeah, he's funny.
• 37:07
  So yeah, he's got funny moments but he's just such a shit Oh
• 37:10
  yeah. So you can be a funny shit bag.
• 37:13
  You can still laugh at them and recognize the shittiness of his
• 37:16
  character, you know layers? Yeah.
• 37:20
  Yeah. I think this is a really good
• 37:21
  movie. I recommend it to everybody have
• 37:24
  a good time with it. It's intense.
• 37:27
  I was really grateful that we had to take notes because you
• 37:29
  were like, I wish we could turn the lights out.
• 37:32
  If we had a lamp, I would have. Well, I'm glad we don't have it.
• 37:36
  I know, right? I'm right there with you, man.
• 37:40
  Tim Hudson for me. Sweet.
• 37:42
  This was hands down. My favorite horror movie of
• 37:46
  2022. There was like real no
• 37:49
  competition for me. Like, I mean, it's just like my
• 37:52
  favorite movie of 2022. It's, I don't know.
• 37:56
  I there's something about it. That felt refreshing.
• 37:59
  It just felt different, but at the same time, it felt like I
• 38:05
  could watch this shit. Like, you could have told me
• 38:08
  this shit came from like the 80s or 70s.
• 38:11
  And I would have believed that, you know, I kind of had that
• 38:13
  vibe to it like a classic movie classic horror movie.
• 38:17
  Yeah. It's just, it's tense.
• 38:19
  It's fun. It's funny.
• 38:23
  It's got everything to it and there's not a dull moment in
• 38:27
  this at all, like you were talking about before I love how
• 38:30
  it changes into a completely different movie halfway through.
• 38:33
  It's not something that you expect, and I think that it
• 38:36
  plays off of that change really well.
• 38:38
  So, Bad. I also do think that there's a
• 38:42
  single bad thing about this movie, like, I honestly can't
• 38:45
  think of a thing about this movie that I dislike.
• 38:48
  I think the only thing that I would say that I wanted more of
• 38:53
  from this movie is I wish we could have seen, like, just like
• 38:57
  a preview of like, what the fuck that tape was that he played
• 39:01
  down in the basement. I like that.
• 39:03
  We got very few hints about what was going on with Frey.
• 39:08
  You get just enough to You're staying how terrible he is.
• 39:11
  Yeah I mean I think we can all pretty much make some good
• 39:15
  assumptions about what it is on there and I don't like I'm not
• 39:19
  trying to be like I want to see some fucked up shit I'm just
• 39:22
  like oh no like I'm watching a horror movie.
• 39:25
  I'm already pretty fucking creeped out if you take it just
• 39:28
  a little bit further I might be like extra grossed out and
• 39:32
  creeped out because like that type of stuff, right.
• 39:35
  There is just creepy to me. So, yeah, I guess that would be
• 39:39
  the only Thing. But I think it's more powerful
• 39:42
  that we don't see it, but we do have AJ, who is morally gyrate
• 39:50
  like him and he's like, what the fuck is wrong with?
• 39:51
  Yeah, I know it definitely is a good thing.
• 39:54
  Yeah. Like I said, I'll give it's not
• 39:56
  really a bad thing, like it's just something that I'm trying
• 39:59
  to think to myself, like I wouldn't have hated it but at
• 40:02
  the same time I respect the decision because like honestly,
• 40:05
  it probably does work better in his favor but I'm just curious.
• 40:10
  Ugly. I mean, like the natural
• 40:12
  ugliness in this movie, you get the fucking piece of shit, like,
• 40:16
  A.J in this. You get the fucking cops that
• 40:20
  don't take tests seriously. You just get like the general
• 40:24
  ugliness of society. It's ugly to look at it's a
• 40:29
  reality though and I don't know. It sucks.
• 40:32
  Yeah, and the Absurd man. I don't know, man.
• 40:38
  I like that. Fucking Just how this movie
• 40:42
  changes into a completely different movie.
• 40:45
  Whenever Bill scarce guards, had gets bashed in and the tunnel
• 40:50
  and I'm like, oh we're going there.
• 40:52
  I thought I was gonna like whenever we were first watching
• 40:54
  it, I was like, oh, this is just going to be like some kind of
• 40:56
  tints Thriller type thing. I don't know what's going to
• 40:58
  happen and holy shit. There's like somebody there just
• 41:01
  bashing his head against the wall and oh my God we're cutting
• 41:03
  the black and now it's Justin Long driving a car.
• 41:06
  Yeah. What the fuck is this?
• 41:08
  Oh no, it's amazing. Oh, I love it.
• 41:11
  Yeah, so that's my piece on it. Alright, so starting average of
• 41:16
  10. All right.
• 41:17
  Starting off strong. Like you said?
• 41:18
  Yeah. Hey, so we start off, it's
• 41:22
  nighttime, it's storming. There's a house.
• 41:26
  Test pulls up. She's reading her email but says
• 41:29
  the lock box, where the key is? The code is 833 one.
• 41:34
  She says eight, eight three one. I like that little moment.
• 41:39
  It doesn't end up being like really significant at all later
• 41:43
  on, but I would just like that little very real moment of those
• 41:46
  would be easy numbers to Interchange when you've been
• 41:48
  driving in the dark and you're stressed.
• 41:49
  Yeah, and tired. So is that what happens here is
• 41:52
  the, she like, enter the code wrong on the keypad.
• 41:54
  And that's what it is. She does it a couple times and
• 41:56
  she has to pull up her email and see that she got the code wrong,
• 41:59
  got you okay? But when she does finally get it
• 42:02
  open, oh, there's no key in the box so she tries to call the
• 42:07
  property manager doesn't get it. An answer, she goes back to her
• 42:11
  car and that's when she sees a light on in the window in the
• 42:14
  house and decides to go ring the doorbell.
• 42:17
  She booked this house through Airbnb.
• 42:20
  Whereas Keith the man, who's answering the door saying that
• 42:23
  he just woke up from her ringing, the doorbell red flag,
• 42:27
  she walked up there because she saw the light turn on in the
• 42:29
  house. The are ringing.
• 42:31
  The doorbell wasn't what woke him up?
• 42:34
  He had flipped a light on it. One point I think it's
• 42:36
  reasonable to hear the commotion going on outside.
• 42:39
  Like, if something was going on outside our door here, like I
• 42:43
  think I would hear it. Did you hear my own?
• 42:49
  I mean, I don't think it's like out of the realm of
• 42:52
  possibilities, like hear that. And then, like, what the fuck is
• 42:55
  that? But yeah, he booked through
• 42:57
  something called HomeAway. Never heard of this.
• 42:59
  Hmm. I haven't either.
• 43:01
  Doesn't mean it doesn't exist, but I've never heard of it.
• 43:03
  Yeah. So, yeah, they're double-booked.
• 43:05
  She shows him her confirmation and then he invites her in just
• 43:10
  to like stay because obviously it's in the middle of the night
• 43:13
  in Detroit and kind of sketchy. So, you know, maybe come inside
• 43:18
  for a minute. Yeah, and I pointed this out
• 43:22
  when we were watching it, but he's like, he seems almost too
• 43:27
  calm about the whole thing. He was a man that That's weird.
• 43:32
  Yeah, no, I'm totally booked here and he blames.
• 43:37
  It is like having just been woken up, but I don't know.
• 43:40
  It just again, it's one of those things that if I was in this
• 43:43
  situation I'd be like here a little bit too.
• 43:46
  Calm about this. Did you plan this?
• 43:47
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 43:48
  I mean it definitely is a red flag but I was pointing out to
• 43:51
  you. I think it would also be a red
• 43:53
  flag on his part to because like, you have somebody knocking
• 43:56
  on your door, in the middle of the night being like, hey, I am
• 43:59
  supposed to be here too. All the more reason for him to
• 44:02
  have a more emotional response. Yeah, definitely.
• 44:05
  Like the same thing with test. She's ignoring her red flags
• 44:07
  here by going inside, he's kind of ignoring his, that should be
• 44:11
  there and letting a stranger come in.
• 44:13
  So she comes in. She wants to see his
• 44:17
  confirmation just to make sure wish he seems a little bit
• 44:20
  offended by but yeah it kind of fucking make sense.
• 44:24
  She just showed you hers it like why wouldn't you have that
• 44:28
  exchange of information? So she goes to the bathroom.
• 44:31
  Room locks the door. She is checking his toiletry bag
• 44:34
  because is a murderer going to think ahead to like set out a
• 44:38
  toiletry bag and put their fucking electric toothbrush on
• 44:43
  the floor. It's got a charge and it looked
• 44:46
  like I had a short cord. I don't know it, I hate it.
• 44:49
  I think, if you are going to do that, charge it in the kitchen
• 44:52
  charging in the living room, the bedroom where ever, it doesn't
• 44:54
  have to stay in the bathroom. It's very distressing to me
• 44:57
  every time I see it as strange decision.
• 45:00
  So, Test decides that she's like.
• 45:03
  Okay cool. I'm just I'm going to go out in
• 45:04
  my car and I'm going to look for another place to stay and he's
• 45:08
  like I don't know if you got a good look outside but this isn't
• 45:10
  the best neighborhood, you probably shouldn't be out there
• 45:12
  alone in your car at night. Just, you know, looking here,
• 45:15
  here's the Wi-Fi information and she calls one or two hotels and
• 45:19
  like, oh, we're completely booked for tonight and think,
• 45:22
  oh, yeah, that's right. There's a medical convention in
• 45:24
  town, so it's pretty fucked off. Hold on, was he call it?
• 45:31
  I had in my notes Here, whatever.
• 45:33
  But the whole time like she's doing this, he's like, do you
• 45:35
  want T? I'm gonna make myself to you.
• 45:36
  Do you want tea? There's also this bottle of wine
• 45:38
  here and she just says, no. Thank you repeatedly and he
• 45:41
  makes it for her anyway. And she doesn't end up drinking
• 45:44
  it because it's catchy. Yeah, red flags and then he's
• 45:49
  like, look, just stay here. You can take the bedroom, which
• 45:54
  I did appreciate like his awareness here to be like she
• 45:57
  can be behind a locked door. Yeah, you know, there's Like
• 46:01
  that. There's on the one hand, there's
• 46:03
  the element of being like kind of Trapped in the house and that
• 46:06
  scenario but I would feel a lot more protected with a locked
• 46:10
  door between me and a stranger versus I'm on a couch exposed.
• 46:14
  Absolutely, I wouldn't want that.
• 46:17
  And she's like, no offense. I have a thing about dirty
• 46:20
  sheets, so they start some laundry.
• 46:22
  And, you know what bedding laundry is the fucking worst.
• 46:26
  Oh, hell yeah. This is, this is quite a time
• 46:28
  commitment on their part. Yeah, what she says.
• 46:30
  He's like, well, Oh, it's probably going to be a few
• 46:32
  hours. So like he's waiting for her at
• 46:34
  the table and she's coming back. She's went to the bathroom to
• 46:36
  like, you know, go know get like changed in the comfortable
• 46:40
  clothes and stuff like that. And she comes back into the
• 46:42
  kitchen, he sitting at the table with the wine and the wine
• 46:45
  glasses he's like, hey I noticed that you didn't drink the tea,
• 46:49
  which I totally understand. So, I wanted to get this one and
• 46:53
  actually pour it in front of you and open it in front of you.
• 46:56
  That way, you can know that there's nothing sketchy going on
• 46:59
  with this, and he's kind of like, The way he's talking
• 47:02
  about, he's kind of like you can.
• 47:03
  He's jittery like nervous. Kind of who hard?
• 47:06
  It's, I think. Here's the thing I get where he
• 47:09
  is coming from a place of like, I understand why I shouldn't
• 47:12
  drink the tea and I don't want her to feel like she can't drink
• 47:14
  anything around me. I want to offer this to her.
• 47:16
  I'm going to be awake anyway, like I get where he's coming
• 47:19
  from a place with good intentions.
• 47:20
  However, he is also putting her in a position where it's like
• 47:25
  she doesn't want the why and she's got a job interview in the
• 47:27
  morning. She's tired.
• 47:28
  This is a shitty situation and now this man is Is, you know,
• 47:31
  even if it's not a drug to drink, it is still alcohol.
• 47:35
  It is still something that is going to dull your senses and
• 47:39
  your reaction times. Yeah, no.
• 47:40
  I get it and I think that he understands Susan, Sontag.
• 47:43
  He's pushing and he's like, okay, that's fine.
• 47:45
  He pours himself a glass and not her.
• 47:47
  So I think he's cool with the so, like between that and like,
• 47:50
  he insists on going and getting her bag for her and, like flag.
• 47:55
  She's like, yeah. Go to my car with my keys and
• 47:57
  get my shit. Yes, it's very distressing and
• 48:01
  It seems like he kind of pushed the point until she just was
• 48:04
  just like, okay, fine. You can go get my bag for me.
• 48:07
  It's things like this that, you know, spend, we're Southern here
• 48:12
  to where it's like Goods, good manners, it's gentlemanly, it's
• 48:15
  the chivalrous thing to do, but it also kind of makes me a
• 48:19
  little bit distrustful of chivalry because it
• 48:22
  automatically puts a woman in a position where she's more prone.
• 48:26
  We mean, like things like that. Like he's like it's raining and
• 48:30
  dark outside. We're in a bad neighborhood.
• 48:32
  Let me go get your bag for you. On the surface, all the points.
• 48:35
  He says sounds like a good nice thing for him to do but he is
• 48:39
  taking the keys to her vehicle. He was going into for me at
• 48:43
  least my vehicle is like a very personal space.
• 48:45
  You know what I mean? You know, there's things like
• 48:48
  that. Like, I am very aware of when
• 48:54
  people will hold the door open for me, especially men, if
• 48:58
  you're holding the door open, and then you're following me
• 49:00
  inside. Side.
• 49:01
  Are you going to be checking out my ass?
• 49:03
  It's happened before. It's happened before and gross
• 49:07
  comments have come from that it like there's just little things
• 49:11
  like that where like you don't want to automatically assume the
• 49:14
  worst but shitty things can happen in those moments.
• 49:17
  Yeah, I mean it's kind of what he was talking about like you
• 49:19
  kind of have to just trust that but that's the whole point of
• 49:23
  tests character basically is that she's kind of she does like
• 49:29
  have those but she doesn't really respond to them because I
• 49:32
  think that she has, I mean, she does to an Temperature.
• 49:35
  I think that she has a little bit more faith than she
• 49:38
  probably. She's a little bit too naive.
• 49:39
  I think I don't think it's necessarily naive.
• 49:42
  Its you know what? Like she's going to go and if
• 49:49
  this guy is unhinged, even if he's not necessarily planning,
• 49:52
  something if she's out really hostile to him what could
• 49:55
  happen, you know. She doesn't know him.
• 49:57
  Yeah, so and she does some smart things like she's very
• 50:00
  conscientious about locking the door.
• 50:02
  She checked, like she takes picture of his driver's license.
• 50:05
  Love that is thing, love that? And that's that's a great idea.
• 50:09
  You've done that to me before to you've liked taking pictures of
• 50:12
  your Uber driver. Yeah.
• 50:13
  I had to take an Uber by myself, which is something that unless I
• 50:17
  can completely avoid it, I don't do.
• 50:20
  So, I take the screenshot. The man's name is license plate.
• 50:25
  Model car. Here's, here's who's getting me.
• 50:29
  If I go missing, give the police this information.
• 50:31
  Yeah, very good. So after If she's done that,
• 50:36
  this is actually the scene where she comes out and he's got the
• 50:38
  wine glasses and stuff. So all that's happening there,
• 50:41
  she sits down and he's asking what brings her to town.
• 50:44
  She's talking about her job interview, which is what she's
• 50:48
  in town for. She's from out of town.
• 50:49
  Yes, obviously. But she's going to be
• 50:52
  interviewing for this person. That's working on a documentary
• 50:55
  about musicians in town. She's gonna be a research
• 50:58
  assistant for this documentary who she wants to talk about the
• 51:03
  art scene in Detroit. And, you know, he was like, oh,
• 51:08
  well, have I heard about heard of anything buyer and she was
• 51:11
  blue easy and he was like, oh, I love that.
• 51:14
  And she like is like, oh sure you've seen it and then he named
• 51:17
  some very specific things just because really he goes, you
• 51:19
  know, he should interview for this documentary me.
• 51:24
  He does kind of say, it menacingly like four minutes
• 51:27
  like it's happening and then he is Apparently one of the
• 51:31
  cofounders of this Art Collective called The Lion
• 51:34
  Tamers. Which is confusing to me because
• 51:37
  the way it's described, it sounds like it's local to
• 51:39
  Detroit. However his licenses we saw was
• 51:42
  for Brooklyn. Yeah.
• 51:45
  I mean there are people that don't update their license.
• 51:48
  I know there are and I totally understand that that's a red
• 51:51
  flag there too but I don't know. They're the thing with this guy
• 51:54
  is like there is a lot of things that you can pick apart but I
• 51:57
  think we're starting to learn that he's actually kind of a
• 51:59
  genuine person, that's what I'm saying.
• 52:01
  Like I feel like his character is fascinating and I kind of
• 52:04
  love that he Gets killed off before we get anything
• 52:07
  definitive about him. Either way, I just feel if he
• 52:11
  really had any motives, I think that he would have acted on it
• 52:15
  that night. I don't know, maybe not, but I
• 52:18
  don't know. I think most people like this,
• 52:20
  probably don't play the long game, but then again, I'm not in
• 52:24
  the mind of a person like that. I don't know how they like, what
• 52:27
  the end goal is here, but the fact that he's actually familiar
• 52:32
  with this director and their work kind of Gets her to get a
• 52:37
  little bit more relaxed. Yeah.
• 52:38
  They're custom Common Ground. Yeah and he can actually like
• 52:41
  have a discussion with her so we got to her, she's actually
• 52:44
  drinking the wine now. Yeah, they're actually enjoying
• 52:47
  each other. Having a good time.
• 52:48
  She's talking about the differences that men and women
• 52:51
  face in general because she was like, say the situation had been
• 52:54
  reversed and you pulled up and I was already here and he's like
• 52:57
  you wouldn't let me and she goes oh yeah, absolutely not.
• 53:03
  I mean the totally understand. Do like, I don't think I would
• 53:06
  let anybody in either personally.
• 53:09
  Yeah. So I just but I mean, she's
• 53:11
  talking about like how they like the difference between men and
• 53:13
  women and how they have to approach these things because
• 53:15
  it's like, it's a different thing for them.
• 53:17
  And then he shows her the amazing trick on how to put a
• 53:21
  duvet on the covers. And again, this feels like a
• 53:25
  moment where he could attack her while he's got the duvet
• 53:28
  comforter on his head. But then also, how is he going
• 53:31
  to do that? Because he's in the duvet cover.
• 53:33
  And also, this is how, you know, it's a twin Size bed because I
• 53:36
  was thinking about trying to do this our duvet cover and too big
• 53:40
  yes there's absolutely no what your arms might be long enough,
• 53:44
  but I don't know that you're tall enough that you could be in
• 53:47
  there without it being like I want drapey on the floor.
• 53:51
  I want to try it after seeing it because it just looks like fun.
• 53:53
  Like the whole point is to just take the duvet cover and just
• 53:56
  wrap yourself in and just kind of accept the other part of that
• 54:00
  is that our duvet cover has like little ties.
• 54:02
  So you tie the corner of the duvet.
• 54:05
  To it. So it doesn't slide around.
• 54:08
  So that's a whole other thing. Yeah, yeah.
• 54:12
  It's just it's a fun little scene.
• 54:15
  And they get Goofy, and have fun.
• 54:16
  And there's like some tension and it's like, oh, are they
• 54:18
  going to kiss, goodnight. Well, also, there's like a
• 54:21
  little bit of dialogue between him and her.
• 54:23
  I think they're talking about relationship stuff here and she
• 54:28
  makes a comment here. That is very important to her
• 54:31
  character and she says, my problem is I'm always going
• 54:33
  back, which is Is like something that plays out constantly in
• 54:38
  this movie because she's always going back.
• 54:40
  She tries to give people the benefit of the doubt and that's
• 54:44
  just her character. It's kind of her flaw.
• 54:46
  But see, here's the thing though.
• 54:49
  Advocating for giving Keith the benefit of the doubt here, hmm,
• 54:53
  right. Because you're saying that he,
• 54:55
  at this point he seemed like a nice enough guy, there's some
• 54:58
  trust built, however, and she and she goes down to the
• 55:02
  basement for him and she ends up getting trapped.
• 55:04
  She has no ability to To save him.
• 55:06
  Yeah, she shouldn't have done that.
• 55:07
  I'm later on. She goes back for AJ.
• 55:10
  Yeah. Giving him the benefit of the
• 55:12
  doubt. Absolutely shouldn't have done
• 55:14
  that either but for a completely different reason.
• 55:17
  Yeah. So it's just kind of It sucks to
• 55:22
  live in a world where it's like, do I go around assuming the
• 55:26
  worst of people and potentially putting myself in danger or
• 55:30
  what, you know what I mean? Yeah definitely.
• 55:32
  And I think that's a big, big Crux of what this movie is
• 55:36
  getting at. Yeah, definitely.
• 55:38
  And he's like a dress that people are very like critical of
• 55:43
  her always doing these things but he's like, I get it, that's
• 55:46
  true character. But also if she doesn't do any
• 55:48
  of these things, there's no movie.
• 55:50
  Yeah. Well, if she doesn't well,
• 55:51
  that's one of the things that gets me to like people will talk
• 55:54
  about. Like there's always these pots
• 55:57
  where this girl and she's special and important and she's
• 56:01
  the one chosen out of a million and she's gonna revolutionize
• 56:04
  the world, do you just want to read a story about a person
• 56:08
  that's living in a dystopian society?
• 56:11
  And that's it. That's done the end.
• 56:13
  Like sure, Katniss Everdeen ends up becoming super special face
• 56:18
  of a revolution, but that's the fucking song.
• 56:20
  Tory, you can't get mad about a story being a story.
• 56:26
  Nothing that her character does seems out of line with her as
• 56:30
  her character. Yeah.
• 56:33
  So it's nighttime his name. They go to night night.
• 56:36
  She wakes up in the middle of the night and she's hearing some
• 56:39
  noises, and her door is open, even though she locked, it
• 56:43
  spooky very spooky, and then she is hearing.
• 56:50
  He's ha, It is having this guy. I don't know if this is like a
• 56:55
  common thing for him, he might just be having some terrible
• 56:57
  nightmares. We were talking about how she
• 57:00
  has to go to the bathroom later and there's no toilet paper, and
• 57:03
  he must have used all the toilet paper.
• 57:05
  So he's having nightmares flashbacks about his horrible
• 57:07
  poop. Say, had?
• 57:08
  Yeah, red flag, but he's just like in there on the couch like
• 57:16
  just like, little, like whimpers and screams.
• 57:18
  It's very much like when your dog is a And it was like
• 57:21
  barking, but not like the little booths but like a full-on.
• 57:24
  I tell you how you laugh Chuckles were raised in her
• 57:29
  sleep. So she goes out there and she
• 57:32
  wakes him up and that startles him.
• 57:34
  He's pretty upset about exactly what the fuck are you doing
• 57:37
  here? And she's like, did you open my
• 57:39
  door and he's like, know what the fuck are you talking about?
• 57:41
  And then she's like, okay, cool. And also, while this is
• 57:45
  happening, I think in the background you can see that the
• 57:48
  basement door is open now to yeah.
• 57:50
  Yeah, so she's like okay I guess I'll go back to bed and then
• 57:55
  he's like, okay I've got to go back to screaming and then cuts
• 57:58
  to the next morning she wakes up.
• 58:00
  She looks distraught it. What time she wakes up which one
• 58:04
  if you have a very important job interview?
• 58:05
  Would you not say I set five alarms if there's something, you
• 58:08
  know what I mean? Yeah something important.
• 58:10
  Yeah, something important. You're going to make sure that
• 58:11
  it's not like her phone died. She's she's immediately checking
• 58:15
  the time there but then she's also very slow getting out of
• 58:18
  the house. And I'm like, did you just wake
• 58:19
  up later than I wanted to but you're so okay on time I don't
• 58:23
  know what's happened. Took it as she didn't have
• 58:25
  enough time to get ready but then again she shows up at this
• 58:28
  interview and she's looking fine like yeah I'm like she's taking
• 58:31
  the shower, she's cleaned up. Yeah but Keith is gone, he's not
• 58:37
  there in the morning, he left her.
• 58:38
  No a sweet note saying hey good luck break a leg.
• 58:42
  By the way, had a really fun that with you last night and
• 58:44
  leave the key in the lock box because they only have one key.
• 58:47
  Yeah. Seems like in case, you know, I
• 58:49
  come back before you leave the Key in the lock box.
• 58:51
  So she does she goes to her interview, it seems to go.
• 58:54
  Well we don't really get to hear a lot about it but we just see a
• 58:57
  general conversation and afterwards.
• 59:00
  Catherine, the director asks her where she staying and she says,
• 59:03
  oh I've got an Airbnb in brightmore and Catherine says
• 59:07
  red flag. Red flag, red flag, right?
• 59:10
  Barb Barbara Street is what she's talking about?
• 59:12
  Yeah, the neighborhood is called Bryn Mawr.
• 59:13
  Okay. Yeah.
• 59:14
  The streets Barber. Yeah, yeah.
• 59:16
  Yeah. So she's she's like that.
• 59:18
  So really rough neighborhood and she goes no.
• 59:20
  It's finally gets a cute house and I've got a roommate and
• 59:23
  would she we did get like a scene when she was walking out
• 59:27
  to go to her car to drive to the interview that she finally got a
• 59:30
  look at what the neighborhood looked like.
• 59:31
  Because she didn't really get a good look at it.
• 59:33
  And when she showed up at night because it's night, none of the
• 59:35
  houses had lights on because they're all abandoned and broken
• 59:38
  down. But it's like a really rough
• 59:40
  neighborhood. Yeah.
• 59:42
  And he actually shot these scenes in Detroit.
• 59:44
  Everything else is filmed in Bolivia, I think I said Bulgaria
• 59:48
  Bulgaria Belgravia. Out of you, it's all filmed in
• 59:53
  Aldo via montanaro. Yeah, so yeah, so after the
• 59:58
  interview, she comes back to the house.
• 1:00:01
  And as she's going there, this is like another, like, what the
• 1:00:04
  fuck moment that is really fucking creepy.
• 1:00:08
  But she gets out of the car and all of a sudden there's like
• 1:00:11
  this homeless man down the road running at her and he's yelling.
• 1:00:16
  Hey, little girl, come here. And we learn later that this Guy
• 1:00:21
  has good motives. However if you're wanting to get
• 1:00:24
  somebody to actually not go inside a house, don't chase
• 1:00:27
  after them sprinting yelling, hey little girl, come here also
• 1:00:32
  and I cannot emphasize this enough.
• 1:00:36
  Do not call grown-ass women, little girl.
• 1:00:42
  Yeah. Also take young lady out of your
• 1:00:45
  vocabulary to thank you, baby. Never, never do that.
• 1:00:53
  Hey, baby. Come here Jay.
• 1:00:55
  Shasha, Jell-O shot. So yeah, like, it's like a
• 1:01:00
  really fucking tense scene and she gets there just in the nick
• 1:01:04
  of time. And this is where I thought her
• 1:01:06
  not knowing the fucking combination was gonna come back
• 1:01:08
  to haunt her and she just, she just got, it was like a red
• 1:01:11
  herring. This guy is just not very good
• 1:01:14
  at getting his point across. Like he's like, banging on the
• 1:01:17
  door, like, get out of the house since like God, no, I'm not
• 1:01:20
  getting out of the house. You're fucking terrifying.
• 1:01:22
  It's like say, what's going on? Yeah, it's like the opening
• 1:01:26
  scene of urban legend with the the gas station attendant.
• 1:01:30
  Who's that actor? Brad dwarf.
• 1:01:31
  Yeah, Brad Dourif think. I don't know why I can never
• 1:01:34
  remember that. Just Let's try and well
• 1:01:37
  everything he's done. I see what you're saying.
• 1:01:39
  There are similarities there. However, the thing with that is
• 1:01:42
  he has a speech impediment where he has a stutter and he can get
• 1:01:46
  the words out. This guy just is, like not very
• 1:01:49
  good at this. He's like threatening her, but
• 1:01:51
  he's like, what the fuck is wrong?
• 1:01:52
  I was a nice fucking guy. I tried to help you.
• 1:01:55
  Yeah. Like I was telling you, get out
• 1:01:57
  of that house and like I called you a little girl and, you know,
• 1:02:00
  I thought that was really cool and, you know, you probably
• 1:02:03
  should have liked me. Yeah, and like, there's a woman
• 1:02:05
  in there. And she's going to see you as a
• 1:02:06
  little girl. Yeah, by the way, baby.
• 1:02:09
  And there's also like a really fucked-up, dude, in there, like,
• 1:02:12
  I get out of the house, but he's like, no, like banging on the
• 1:02:14
  door yelling at her and so, she is freaked out.
• 1:02:17
  She calls the cops. She's packing her bag.
• 1:02:19
  She in the cops are like we cannot send a car out there
• 1:02:22
  right now. We are busy.
• 1:02:23
  This is Detroit. Yeah.
• 1:02:26
  And she's like, but I and she's like, I don't even know if I can
• 1:02:30
  get to my car without possibly getting like no.
• 1:02:33
  Like that's the shitty thing is. She's Trapped in this house now
• 1:02:37
  because like I wouldn't want to step outside of their like
• 1:02:40
  there's like is he hiding in the bushes?
• 1:02:42
  Is he hiding in one of those houses over there to scare easy
• 1:02:45
  under my car? Yeah, like I would be terrified
• 1:02:48
  that he would be breaking through a window.
• 1:02:50
  Yeah, I'm surprised is actually not actively trying to break
• 1:02:53
  into that house. Yes, we learned later that the
• 1:02:56
  people in this movie aside, from the cops have zero qualms with
• 1:02:59
  breaking Windows. Maybe this is like a Detroit
• 1:03:02
  thing. We see this in it follows also
• 1:03:05
  So I'm yes. There are only Detroit movies
• 1:03:08
  that we've covered. I know we have Michigan
• 1:03:10
  listeners. Tell us.
• 1:03:12
  Yeah. But yeah.
• 1:03:15
  So she's like freaking out about it and she's just like, okay
• 1:03:20
  well I guess I'll just you know wait and hope Keith doesn't get
• 1:03:23
  murdered on his way into the house and we can leave together
• 1:03:27
  when he gets here I guess. And so she goes she has an
• 1:03:31
  anxiety p and there's no toilet paper.
• 1:03:34
  Yeah, you've talked about your method with this, but she does
• 1:03:37
  not, she does not subscribe to that.
• 1:03:40
  Well, I do think she has to drip dry in the moment because she's
• 1:03:42
  got nothing to work with. I think that she's an awkward
• 1:03:46
  pants around my ankles waddled down to the basement which would
• 1:03:49
  have been awkward to watch but also like fantastically
• 1:03:55
  hilarious I would have liked to have seen what that would be
• 1:04:00
  like like I'm thinking of like that gif of Patrick from
• 1:04:03
  SpongeBob where he's like guys pants.
• 1:04:04
  I think, what these guys arms out, like, all the way like
• 1:04:07
  balancing. It's just like waddling back and
• 1:04:09
  forth but yeah, so she's looking around for toilet paper.
• 1:04:12
  Let's go down to the basement. For just seems like a really
• 1:04:15
  inconvenient place to leave your toilet paper.
• 1:04:17
  Yeah, I would put it, I don't love where we have to keep ours
• 1:04:22
  just because we have a tiny bathroom, but at least it's
• 1:04:25
  like, I mean, we only have 14 in our house.
• 1:04:29
  We had a basement, I wouldn't put in a basement And with
• 1:04:36
  little Ducky on it, I feel like, where the fuck are you going
• 1:04:39
  with our toilet paper? Do not put it in the basement.
• 1:04:43
  That is grounds for divorce. Like I toss it up in the crawl
• 1:04:47
  space, like I got to dive underneath my fucking house and
• 1:04:52
  your toilet paper. No.
• 1:04:54
  So she goes down there together and wouldn't, you know, the door
• 1:04:58
  closes behind her and locks her in.
• 1:05:01
  And I feel like I would have brought that door open from the
• 1:05:03
  beginning, but I'm also a Baby who is afraid of basements,
• 1:05:06
  which I feel like we've talked about on this before.
• 1:05:08
  Anyway, whoa, she opens the door and that basements, not looking
• 1:05:12
  good right from the get-go. Maybe I would do the same to.
• 1:05:15
  However, I think that I trust the door.
• 1:05:19
  I would have trusted the door also but trusted or I don't
• 1:05:23
  trust a strange man. I don't.
• 1:05:26
  This would be a completely different movie if it were you.
• 1:05:28
  Yeah. Like none of this would have
• 1:05:30
  ever happened. Like I would have seen the light
• 1:05:33
  go on in the House and I would've been like, all right,
• 1:05:36
  we're gonna we're just going to drive for just gonna leave and
• 1:05:39
  I'm going to file for a refund that's what's gonna happen.
• 1:05:42
  I think honestly you could have maybe driven to a nearby City
• 1:05:45
  and just like I'm setting my alarm extra early tomorrow and
• 1:05:48
  driving. I'm sorry but what fucking
• 1:05:51
  convention is going to take over every single Hotel in Detroit.
• 1:05:54
  Detroit is not like a small City, okay?
• 1:05:58
  I found it here. What he called, he called it a
• 1:05:59
  medical thing convention so that's what it is.
• 1:06:01
  A medical thing convention. Okay.
• 1:06:03
  Well I said medical convention And you acted like I was really
• 1:06:06
  far off from what I know and I was off by a single word.
• 1:06:09
  No, it's the same thing. I think I just like the idea of
• 1:06:12
  it actually being called medical thing convention where, like all
• 1:06:16
  things medical medical thing convention.
• 1:06:18
  Come on down to Detroit, we're not just cars.
• 1:06:22
  Yeah, we're medical things to and broken windows, I guess.
• 1:06:29
  So. Now she's locked in this
• 1:06:30
  basement. She still has the key in her
• 1:06:33
  pocket, from where I was running from the guy.
• 1:06:36
  She left her phone in the room. Yeah, so she's just down there.
• 1:06:42
  Like she's got starts. Just gotta wait till Q comes
• 1:06:44
  back. This is a good way to separate
• 1:06:46
  the phone. Yeah, situation here.
• 1:06:48
  I like this. This feels organic and real.
• 1:06:50
  So she's down there, just kind of like exploring around and she
• 1:06:53
  moved some things around on the shelf and what do you know,
• 1:06:55
  there's a rope sticking out of the wall?
• 1:06:58
  Nope. So red flag red flag so you know
• 1:07:03
  no one test she's like, okay. I'll bet and then she fucking
• 1:07:07
  grabs it and pulls it open and then opens up a secret door.
• 1:07:11
  And then finally, she looks down the hallway and she says, Nope.
• 1:07:16
  And then that's it. However, she lets the Curiosity,
• 1:07:20
  get the best of her and she figures out a way.
• 1:07:22
  She's actually pretty like in. Like she's got a lot of
• 1:07:25
  Ingenuity with this. This is impressive.
• 1:07:27
  Yes, so she sets up, there's like a large mirror and she sets
• 1:07:31
  it up. So that way it's reflecting the
• 1:07:33
  light from the ceiling in into the hallway, all while wearing
• 1:07:38
  my shoes rocking the Stan, Smith's, My Adidas.
• 1:07:44
  I just every single time I see her, she's like the fucking
• 1:07:46
  shoes. It's like that Meme of a Leo
• 1:07:48
  DiCaprio. That's right there.
• 1:07:52
  Leo DiCaprio, you guys are besties.
• 1:07:55
  Yeah, I think I caught that from New Year.
• 1:07:57
  New You. This is what they call him.
• 1:07:58
  And uh yeah. So she shines a little lie down
• 1:08:03
  there. So she decides to walk down the
• 1:08:05
  All and she finds a little door to the side.
• 1:08:07
  So she opens up the room here and this is the spookiest
• 1:08:13
  fucking room ever. It's just a room with a
• 1:08:16
  camcorder, on a tripod, a bed that is stained with all kinds
• 1:08:20
  of shit. I don't want to know about and a
• 1:08:23
  bucket and it just. Oh, and also a bloody handprint
• 1:08:29
  on the wall. You it's enough to know that
• 1:08:32
  this is not a good place. Yeah, so she starts freaking
• 1:08:37
  out, understandably runs back out to the basement.
• 1:08:41
  And when she gets back out there, she notices that Keith is
• 1:08:44
  outside. Trying to get inside the house,
• 1:08:47
  there's a little window that is it's kind of like one of those
• 1:08:51
  little square ones. I don't know what you call that
• 1:08:53
  type. I don't know.
• 1:08:54
  They're all Travis is World rectangular regularly, not
• 1:08:58
  Square, they're narrow rectangular and you have to push
• 1:09:01
  them open so it's Jim and she can't get it open.
• 1:09:05
  Yourself, Keith helps her, she manages to get out there back up
• 1:09:10
  on what she does. Is she gives him the key so that
• 1:09:12
  way he can open. Oh that's right, that's right.
• 1:09:14
  Yeah, yeah. Because they don't have to break
• 1:09:16
  the window yet. Yeah.
• 1:09:18
  So he lets her back up she and he's like, just kind of laugh
• 1:09:22
  and he's like hey what's going on?
• 1:09:23
  But she's really freaked out. She's like you don't understand.
• 1:09:25
  There's something really really bad here.
• 1:09:27
  There's a room down there. Nothing good happened.
• 1:09:30
  Like there's a bed and a camera and a bucket and he is not
• 1:09:34
  taking. It's okay.
• 1:09:35
  He is so fucking. I have been trying to defend him
• 1:09:37
  so far this movie because I understand he's been coming
• 1:09:40
  across this creepy o at times, but he's got, he's been, he's
• 1:09:45
  had a good heart about it. However, this right here, he's
• 1:09:47
  like a camcorder, a bed and a bucket, I don't understand
• 1:09:50
  what's the problem and I'm like, what the fuck are you talking
• 1:09:53
  about? That just makes me think that
• 1:09:54
  these are your items. Keith maybe you are fucked up.
• 1:09:58
  I don't know, you know, I'm starting to have second
• 1:10:00
  thoughts. He's like, you know what, that
• 1:10:01
  all just sounds kind of normal. Like yeah, camcorders.
• 1:10:04
  Not Have a camcorder mattress and a bucket.
• 1:10:08
  Like you've been. You've been using the bathroom.
• 1:10:11
  Is that that bucket man? I left you a bucket.
• 1:10:16
  So he's like oh, you know what? I'm sorry.
• 1:10:18
  Because she's freaking out at his whack of.
• 1:10:20
  Yeah. Like we need to leave and he is
• 1:10:22
  like, calm down rude and she's like fine.
• 1:10:26
  If you don't want to leave all we've like I'm just I'm out I'm
• 1:10:29
  fucking out. It was you know?
• 1:10:31
  I was excited to get to know you a little bit better but nope,
• 1:10:34
  we're done here and he goes sir. Sorry, I just like I need to see
• 1:10:36
  it for myself. Yeah, so we asked her is like,
• 1:10:38
  please just stay here. I'll go check.
• 1:10:40
  Well, I know one point like he's physically blocking her from
• 1:10:43
  leaving, is he? Yes like he's actually blocking
• 1:10:46
  her from leaving. He's like whoa, don't go.
• 1:10:47
  And it's like yeah I do to make that decision.
• 1:10:51
  No sir. So he goes down there and we
• 1:10:57
  don't follow him. We're stuck with tests and he we
• 1:11:01
  hear him like down the hall. Yeah, I like you hear him at
• 1:11:04
  first is like you. I see it, and then she continues
• 1:11:08
  to call for him and then suddenly he's not answering any
• 1:11:10
  more. So, she looks back down the
• 1:11:12
  hallway. And there happens to be a door
• 1:11:16
  at the end of the tunnel like, and why would he go down that
• 1:11:19
  fucking door? Also the speed with which he did
• 1:11:21
  all of this. See, okay, I don't know if he
• 1:11:24
  went down there himself or if the creature happened to get him
• 1:11:28
  at this time. I'm not putting it past him with
• 1:11:30
  how oblivious to this whole situation.
• 1:11:33
  He's like, wow. You know what?
• 1:11:34
  He's kind of of like Justin Wong in this scene may be like, oh
• 1:11:38
  like there's more places for us to go in this house.
• 1:11:40
  Cool, I'm gonna continue for activities.
• 1:11:42
  Yeah. So she notices that door and she
• 1:11:46
  goes down there and opens it up. And this is probably the height
• 1:11:49
  of the tension for me in this movie because the entire time
• 1:11:52
  I'm like, nope, just got just go call the police just called the
• 1:11:55
  police. Just say something bad happened
• 1:11:58
  it. Because at this point, like, he
• 1:12:00
  calls for her, And every like hair on the back of my neck is
• 1:12:06
  standing up saying he is luring you down there this, I know this
• 1:12:10
  is the thing about this scene that gets me.
• 1:12:13
  Like there are times where I'm able to immerse myself in a
• 1:12:16
  scene and be like, like I can put myself in a scene and be
• 1:12:19
  like, how the fuck would you react to this?
• 1:12:21
  And a lot of times, it's kind of hard to do that, but this one
• 1:12:23
  right here, I can actually like imagine myself perfectly being
• 1:12:26
  test here and like, just picturing myself going down the
• 1:12:30
  stairs as she does. I'm like Hair, my hair stand up
• 1:12:33
  thinking about it too it's so fucking creepy.
• 1:12:35
  I'm like she's got no reason to look so far.
• 1:12:40
  He's given her very little reason not to trust him.
• 1:12:43
  Yeah. And so she hears him screaming
• 1:12:45
  for help and she wants to do the right thing.
• 1:12:48
  I'm so incredibly distressful because you chitchat and over a
• 1:12:52
  glass of wine is not enough for me.
• 1:12:54
  Yeah no no I mean for this right here, this isn't enough to like
• 1:12:57
  do this for sure and it I mean it does feel like he is wearing
• 1:13:01
  her down there because he's just yelling at us help.
• 1:13:04
  It's like really faint really distant and so she gets down
• 1:13:07
  there and there's a bunch of red flags all over the place,
• 1:13:10
  because there's dog cages, there's great.
• 1:13:13
  There's a lot of stuff and then he comes crawling up at her and
• 1:13:17
  he's like, we've got to go. There's somebody else down here.
• 1:13:19
  Somebody bit me and she's like okay well let's go this way.
• 1:13:22
  Goes no no go that way. Yeah.
• 1:13:24
  What the fuck? I keep going towards the thing.
• 1:13:27
  I don't understand is thought process here.
• 1:13:29
  I don't know where she's like, let's get out of here.
• 1:13:32
  Trapped. It's an underground tunnel.
• 1:13:34
  You're just cornering yourself. See in, I don't know like I
• 1:13:38
  would trust test here but you know, maybe he is a little bit
• 1:13:41
  disoriented because like when, if you're down there in the dark
• 1:13:43
  and you don't have any white, you lose all sense everything I
• 1:13:48
  absolutely did this thing. Once I'm on the school field
• 1:13:51
  trip where we were in a cave and we turn off all of our
• 1:13:54
  flashlights and you get to like hold on to the rail and in total
• 1:13:58
  darkness, like you just lose everything.
• 1:14:01
  Yeah. Lutely.
• 1:14:02
  Yeah, but I mean trust test here like she came from she's got a
• 1:14:06
  light, like, fucking don't fight her on this, but we don't get a
• 1:14:10
  chance for that or even to play out because all of a sudden, the
• 1:14:13
  mother just comes up out of nowhere, grabs his head and
• 1:14:16
  bashes it in, and then that's that.
• 1:14:19
  Then we cut to the ocean and Justin long and his convertible
• 1:14:24
  singing Rikki-Tikki-Tavi. He does a good job, man, like he
• 1:14:30
  does a good job. I'm seeing this, this is the
• 1:14:33
  thing we're introduced to Justin along in a very Charming way,
• 1:14:37
  trying to like, set him up to be like this guy that, you know,
• 1:14:40
  might be kind of good and then he's getting a call from
• 1:14:44
  somebody. And then they're like, hey, just
• 1:14:48
  to let you know, there's some some heavy shit this girl.
• 1:14:52
  Her name is Megan something. I can't remember.
• 1:14:54
  Yeah, she's making some allegations about you and she is
• 1:15:00
  refusing to continue with the pie.
• 1:15:02
  Eyelet that you shooting. If you're going to be attached
• 1:15:03
  to it, we're conducting an investigation.
• 1:15:06
  But really, there's not a scenario where you're not fired
• 1:15:09
  and he's like well I was a part of this before she's a fucking
• 1:15:11
  lying bitch red flag. Yeah he's like he is, he's not
• 1:15:17
  he's acting as if like this is all brand new to him as if it's
• 1:15:21
  something that I like, how the fuck where the fuck could this
• 1:15:24
  have come from? I have no idea second, he called
• 1:15:27
  her and he said that she's fucking lying.
• 1:15:29
  I knew from the second that what they Saying actually happened.
• 1:15:33
  Yeah, I just knew it. Everybody was like, well, we
• 1:15:36
  don't really get it confirmed until he's like you're at the
• 1:15:38
  bar. No.
• 1:15:39
  He I'm going to be on. This is Hannah.
• 1:15:42
  That was me my first time watching this because I was
• 1:15:44
  like, this is kind of, it could be kind of interesting to see it
• 1:15:47
  play out that way, I don't know, maybe like I want to give just
• 1:15:50
  along the benefit of the doubt because I love Justin long, but
• 1:15:54
  watching it this time too. I'm like, oh no.
• 1:15:56
  This guys fucking he's not like, I never touched her.
• 1:15:59
  I was never alone with her. He does play it off, I was like,
• 1:16:02
  what the fuck like where did that even come from?
• 1:16:04
  Like he's acting as though this is brand-new.
• 1:16:06
  He has no idea where this came from but like, I don't know.
• 1:16:10
  I got different vibes from this time.
• 1:16:12
  I was like, okay, he's a little bit squeezy.
• 1:16:15
  He pulls off to the side of the road and I like oh by the way
• 1:16:19
  the story is going to be in The Hollywood Reporter tomorrow.
• 1:16:22
  Yeah. And a nice touch that I read
• 1:16:24
  online. The person that they said is
• 1:16:26
  writing, the article is actually the person that wrote a lot of
• 1:16:29
  the me to articles. I exposed a lot of Mike.
• 1:16:32
  Harvey Weinstein. All those people cool.
• 1:16:34
  Yeah. So they actually attached like a
• 1:16:36
  real person, it's kind of cool. And yeah it's funny to see like
• 1:16:39
  he's getting that same thing. So I mean if it is like
• 1:16:42
  something like that I think that's assigned to like the
• 1:16:44
  legitimacy of the accusations towards him there.
• 1:16:48
  Well, so he cut it has to him meeting with a financial
• 1:16:50
  advisor. We tried to pause on the
• 1:16:52
  spreadsheet, but neither of us is wealthy enough for this
• 1:16:56
  spreadsheet to make any sense to us.
• 1:16:58
  Yeah, I'm so fucking stupid with this stuff.
• 1:17:00
  Like it did not make it. Like, it was Cool to look at it.
• 1:17:02
  But I'm like, um, I don't like there's like Investments, liquid
• 1:17:09
  assets liabilities so many numbers.
• 1:17:13
  Like I don't know how much money he actually has, but what the
• 1:17:16
  wealth manager says is that at his current rate of spending
• 1:17:20
  with no income coming in, he will be at zero in three months.
• 1:17:25
  That's pretty intense. Legal fee is because he's he's
• 1:17:28
  fighting the initial one against His accusation and then he's
• 1:17:33
  also going to like file a defamation.
• 1:17:36
  Yeah. Again soon and overall it's
• 1:17:38
  going to cost him a hundred and forty thousand dollars.
• 1:17:41
  Yeah. So he's so, as well as managers
• 1:17:44
  like I suggest that you make some decisions about your assets
• 1:17:47
  and I'm also going to give you your files back.
• 1:17:49
  And he's like, what does that mean?
• 1:17:50
  And he goes, I am no like her wealth manager.
• 1:17:53
  Good, good move. Yeah.
• 1:17:55
  Everybody's like getting away from him.
• 1:17:59
  So he flies to Michigan. And so, that way, he can check
• 1:18:03
  out his property, sell them, because they're not bringing in
• 1:18:06
  enough money as like rental properties, to be.
• 1:18:08
  Yeah, he could sell them, but he'd only have like, a couple
• 1:18:11
  months time. Basically, the guy was implying
• 1:18:13
  you need to sell your house if you really want to be able to
• 1:18:15
  survive this thing. So while he's there, he calls
• 1:18:19
  his lawyer saying that, like he just wants to get a chance to
• 1:18:23
  talk to Megan and you know, clear this all up in the lawyers
• 1:18:26
  like, absolutely not. Also, why are you in a rental
• 1:18:29
  car? Niko's, because I'm in Michigan
• 1:18:30
  and it goes that. Doesn't look great.
• 1:18:33
  Yeah, it's like why the fuck did you leave the state?
• 1:18:35
  You shouldn't do that. He's like, do you think I'm
• 1:18:37
  actually gonna get arrested? He's like I think it's a
• 1:18:39
  legitimate possibility that you might be arrested.
• 1:18:42
  Yeah. Like he's got no clue how
• 1:18:44
  serious all of this at. Yeah.
• 1:18:47
  But he's got to go there because he's got to check on his
• 1:18:49
  property so that he's not wanting to sell his home.
• 1:18:52
  That's the thing he's wanting to try and just, yeah, it's
• 1:18:54
  California home. Yeah, thank you.
• 1:18:58
  Yeah. So he pulls up test his, car's
• 1:19:01
  still there. R.
• 1:19:02
  The door of the basement. Still open toothbrush is still
• 1:19:04
  on the floor toiletry bags. Just like everything is still as
• 1:19:08
  long as yeah. Everything is here.
• 1:19:10
  Yeah and so he calls the the management the property
• 1:19:13
  management company and they're like oh well we only said the
• 1:19:16
  send the maid services before somebody's going to be renting
• 1:19:20
  it and he goes that. You see why there's a problem
• 1:19:22
  with that which I hate that. I agree with him on something
• 1:19:25
  but I do agree with him on us and they're just like well I
• 1:19:29
  don't know what to tell you it hasn't been rented out in a
• 1:19:31
  couple weeks. Yeah but it's kind of cool to
• 1:19:33
  give us a perspective of how long it's been since everything
• 1:19:36
  beforehand played out. Yeah.
• 1:19:38
  So he's washing his face and talking to his mom and she's
• 1:19:44
  just like, you know how about you just come see us in
• 1:19:46
  Michigan. It's not that far a fly and he's
• 1:19:48
  like I just I can't I got work stuff going on.
• 1:19:52
  Yeah, they hit it is like yeah, your father wants you to come
• 1:19:56
  years ago, dad actually said that he's like well, you know
• 1:19:58
  how he is. And so you get the idea that is
• 1:20:01
  Him and his dad, don't exactly have a good relationship and
• 1:20:04
  then he gets a call from Zach kreger himself.
• 1:20:07
  Yes. And he hangs up on his mom as
• 1:20:10
  she's like, by love you. And he's like, yeah, fuck you
• 1:20:12
  and in and then he immediately uses a slurry.
• 1:20:14
  Yeah, there's that. This is the moment that is like
• 1:20:17
  the Awakening that for some people including me the first
• 1:20:20
  time that he's like, really a piece of shit.
• 1:20:22
  He's like hey, what's up, homophobic slur and then it cuts
• 1:20:26
  to at the bar but if that's actually how he, yeah, it's so
• 1:20:29
  powerful. They swear That was still very
• 1:20:32
  shitty. Yeah, I know it's still shitty
• 1:20:35
  it. Like, in a way that catches you
• 1:20:37
  off guard. Yeah.
• 1:20:38
  He's like what? And then it cuts to him at the
• 1:20:41
  bar is that Gregor is like, alright man.
• 1:20:45
  Like just like be real with me. What the fuck actually happened
• 1:20:47
  and then he's like, all right man you know what?
• 1:20:49
  I'm going to actually be real with you.
• 1:20:52
  She said no she took a lot of convincing but you know me I
• 1:20:55
  don't take no for an I'm a fucking dog I'm persistent you
• 1:20:57
  know so like I kept like going and then like I started like
• 1:21:00
  actually doing something. Then and then she was kind of
• 1:21:02
  cool with it eventually and then that's that and then totally
• 1:21:07
  just like openly admitting to fucking raping her.
• 1:21:10
  Yeah. It's just really nasty and then
• 1:21:12
  it cuts to him, he's back at the house on Barbary and he's
• 1:21:17
  calling the girl that accused him his very drunk.
• 1:21:20
  I'm very concerned about the fact that he might have driven
• 1:21:22
  himself to and from the bar because he seems like that time
• 1:21:25
  so he definitely did no fucking way it didn't and he's like
• 1:21:29
  leaving her voicemail, which is very ill-advised.
• 1:21:32
  It's just like whenever you're ready to like, appalling, like,
• 1:21:35
  I'm not even mad at you anymore. Like, it's fine.
• 1:21:38
  We can talk about this. I forgive you like, what the
• 1:21:40
  fuck is wrong with you? Dude, it sucks, man.
• 1:21:44
  I fucking hate seen Justin along be this type of guy all the time
• 1:21:47
  in horror movies but goddamn it. He plays it really well.
• 1:21:51
  He does. He does have one minor redeeming
• 1:21:55
  thing. He has gudetama boxers on yes.
• 1:21:58
  When he wakes up the next morning, a super hungover.
• 1:22:00
  You and I were both like, Is that good time, by the way, if
• 1:22:04
  none of you guys know who gudetama is, will come up right
• 1:22:07
  now. He is a little egg yolk.
• 1:22:09
  That is just cute. As can be, he's got a butt cheek
• 1:22:12
  guy's butt, hanging out, he's tired all the time.
• 1:22:15
  He's sleeping and he's drooling. He's just so fucking cute.
• 1:22:18
  Jesse got me a little pushy of him for Christmas.
• 1:22:20
  I love it. So, yeah, he fits the morning,
• 1:22:26
  he looks through the bedroom and finds Tessa's stuff and he like
• 1:22:31
  makes them as Best attempt to League log into her computer.
• 1:22:34
  Do we see what I actually typed in?
• 1:22:35
  I'm pretty sure he just typed in her name test.
• 1:22:38
  Yeah. And then when that didn't work
• 1:22:39
  he just tosses it. I gotta say man fucking amazing
• 1:22:43
  toss a weari. How many takes that took?
• 1:22:45
  Like I wonder if like he actually just toss it up there
• 1:22:48
  and when did perfectly back? How he put it?
• 1:22:50
  Where I picked it up. I'm like what the fuck?
• 1:22:52
  Yeah, I was very stressed with that talk.
• 1:22:54
  Yeah. So he decides he's going to
• 1:22:58
  check around the house. He sees the basement door
• 1:23:00
  propped open and he was Like, oh, do I have people in the
• 1:23:03
  basement? So he gets a little steak knife
• 1:23:06
  and then when he gets down there, he finds the rope in the
• 1:23:08
  wall, he finds the room and he goes, oh my God, and then I cuts
• 1:23:12
  to him. Googling, can you count it room
• 1:23:17
  as living area in your house extra room and basement?
• 1:23:22
  All right, I got it written down here, can underground rooms be
• 1:23:25
  listed as square footage and like it's just like a fucking
• 1:23:29
  amazing cut. That's like some good comedy
• 1:23:30
  injected, right? Like Him like reading the
• 1:23:33
  results, he's like not usually can't usually.
• 1:23:35
  Okay cool. Yeah, gross living area.
• 1:23:38
  Okay okay. Yeah, bitch.
• 1:23:40
  And then he gets his tape measure, which has to be like, a
• 1:23:43
  professional like construction worker tape measure because it's
• 1:23:47
  got, I feel like so much tape to it if somebody actually had a
• 1:23:51
  tape measure with this much tape to measure.
• 1:23:54
  It would be like, as big as their head, nice.
• 1:23:57
  It wouldn't fit in their Palm, but he takes it down and he's
• 1:24:01
  measuring Out the room and then he notices the extra door down
• 1:24:04
  there. It's so funny, like him down
• 1:24:06
  there. He is trying to calculate the
• 1:24:08
  square footage. He's not reading any of these
• 1:24:10
  numbers down. Even best case scenario.
• 1:24:12
  He's not going to remember exactly how much it is.
• 1:24:14
  Oh yeah. He's in like the fucking room,
• 1:24:16
  by the way, with the camera and the buck in the bed and he's
• 1:24:18
  like measuring around everything, he sits on the bed.
• 1:24:20
  He's like yeah she's like that's it that's the that's all that
• 1:24:24
  you get from that room right there.
• 1:24:26
  And then he notices the other room that leads further down and
• 1:24:28
  he's like, oh, hell yeah. And then he goes.
• 1:24:31
  Further down sees the cages and he's like, oh, hell yeah.
• 1:24:35
  And he keeps measuring the whole room down there because that's
• 1:24:37
  another room, and then as he goes a little bit further,
• 1:24:41
  there's another room that has like a purple light coming from
• 1:24:43
  it and some sound mmm-hmm. So he goes in there and he sees
• 1:24:48
  this old TV playing a video of breastfeeding and stress.
• 1:24:53
  It's like a breastfeeding instructional video.
• 1:24:55
  Yeah. And the tape measure snaps at
• 1:24:58
  that moment. AJ panics runs and he falls into
• 1:25:02
  this pit. Where test is also there.
• 1:25:04
  Yeah. Because it's like you can hear
• 1:25:06
  the mother out there to just kind of.
• 1:25:08
  Yeah. And now it's time for Richard
• 1:25:12
  break flashback. Yes.
• 1:25:15
  Another kind of cool thing about this by the way around.
• 1:25:18
  So what it does here, the aspect ratio of the movie switches to,
• 1:25:22
  what it would have been back in the 80s.
• 1:25:24
  Oh cool. Yeah.
• 1:25:25
  Like you notice it I guess it's kind of like puts you back in
• 1:25:27
  the like immersed as you I guess.
• 1:25:30
  Kind of, but it's a very unusual way of filming here.
• 1:25:34
  I like it kind of like I don't know, kind of makes you feel
• 1:25:38
  differently because I feel like we're watching a video game play
• 1:25:40
  out here because I told you it's like Grand Theft Auto.
• 1:25:43
  We're like it's fixed on Richard breaks back as he's walking
• 1:25:47
  around. Yeah, I guess I could
• 1:25:49
  controlling a character in the video game so he goes to the
• 1:25:52
  store and he's asking for baby supplies and This Woman's like
• 1:25:56
  asking questions like oh where are you going to have the birth?
• 1:26:00
  Then he goes home birth and he goes, oh, I'm sure you have a
• 1:26:02
  midwife, he goes. Nope, it's just me.
• 1:26:04
  So she just like she gives him. This breastfeeding video, latex
• 1:26:07
  gloves, plastic sheets diapers, and then he's leaving, as he's
• 1:26:12
  getting into his car. His eyes lock on this woman and
• 1:26:15
  this yellow dress and he follows her back to her house.
• 1:26:18
  He Parks down the street and pulls out a jumpsuit.
• 1:26:22
  With the name Carl on it. Goes up to the door.
• 1:26:26
  Says he is with DWP. There's been some outages.
• 1:26:29
  Can I check Check your water situation and she's like oh yeah
• 1:26:32
  sure he's wearing the jumpsuit why wouldn't she you know she's
• 1:26:35
  like okay yeah sure yeah so he goes into the bathroom he runs
• 1:26:39
  the water for a second and unlocks the bathroom door and
• 1:26:42
  that's our the bathroom window. And that's all you need to know
• 1:26:44
  what his MO is. Oh yeah, I love that.
• 1:26:47
  We get this tiny little bit and that's it, you know, exactly
• 1:26:50
  what happens from here. Yeah.
• 1:26:52
  It doesn't explain anything more, but I follow them back
• 1:26:55
  home and as he's walking back, and he's still wearing the
• 1:26:57
  jumpsuit, this is Carl. And his name is Frank and his
• 1:27:01
  neighbors like, hey, Frank and he's like, hey just want to let
• 1:27:05
  you know, there's Amadeus on and the yard and he's like why did
• 1:27:08
  what's right? What are you?
• 1:27:09
  Why are you? Why are you talking to me?
• 1:27:12
  I don't like you. Like they, these two people
• 1:27:15
  would not interact. He said yeah, the neighborhood
• 1:27:18
  is going to shit. We're worried if we don't sell.
• 1:27:20
  Now we won't be able to sell year from now.
• 1:27:23
  Yeah. He's like okay.
• 1:27:24
  Fucking get out of here, then it's like, I'm staying.
• 1:27:26
  Yeah. And he goes into his house and
• 1:27:28
  then opens up the basement door and you Here's some woman
• 1:27:31
  screaming and then close cut back to Tess and AJ in the
• 1:27:37
  little seller in the basement. Yeah.
• 1:27:40
  And so she's telling him to stay calm because if he gets upset
• 1:27:44
  she gets upset. And then the mother comes and
• 1:27:47
  tries to give them a bottle and she's telling him to drink.
• 1:27:49
  She's like she just wants you to be her baby.
• 1:27:51
  Just like let her take care of you and she takes a drink.
• 1:27:54
  And I think this is again coming back to the difference between
• 1:27:56
  the way men and women are socialized.
• 1:27:59
  Tess has learned that sometimes you do.
• 1:28:01
  What you have to do in the moment to stay alive and
• 1:28:04
  sometimes that involves complying.
• 1:28:06
  Yeah, which is probably ding. Ding, ding parallels here what
• 1:28:11
  Megan was doing with AJ. Oh, yeah, absolutely.
• 1:28:14
  Yeah. Like he's yeah, he's kind of
• 1:28:17
  experiencing the same thing that he put her through.
• 1:28:20
  She's like, forcing the baby bottle down through the cage and
• 1:28:24
  he won't take it. So she opens up the little cover
• 1:28:28
  to this pit. Jumps in and takes them and she
• 1:28:32
  doesn't put the cover back. So, test takes the moment to
• 1:28:35
  escape and she's walking through the tunnel and she crosses by
• 1:28:42
  the door, the room where the instructional video is, she's
• 1:28:46
  basically like the mother is taking AJ and there is like,
• 1:28:49
  hey, this is me trying to breastfeed you, you know?
• 1:28:52
  And she actually tries to and props to test, well, she Could
• 1:28:59
  have had an opportunity to save and there, but I think she
• 1:29:02
  realized her best opportunity was to continue going.
• 1:29:05
  Go up top, get help and come back for yes, because she knows
• 1:29:09
  that if he complies for a little bit, she'll like he'll still be
• 1:29:12
  alive. Yeah, so she goes back out
• 1:29:14
  there, the basement doors, unfortunately closed.
• 1:29:17
  Yes, but she goes to the window and she breaks through it
• 1:29:21
  because the she has accidentally triggered, the tape measure.
• 1:29:24
  So now the mother knows she's leaving.
• 1:29:25
  She's panicking. If she breaks through the
• 1:29:27
  window, Andre the homeless man that was After her earlier comes
• 1:29:31
  up helps her out and he's explaining the whole situation
• 1:29:34
  is like she will come out at night.
• 1:29:35
  You need to be gone before then she goes there.
• 1:29:37
  Somebody else down, there he goes.
• 1:29:38
  Don't worry about him. He's already dead.
• 1:29:39
  Yeah. By the way you could have
• 1:29:41
  actually told me this. Yeah, a long time ago when we
• 1:29:45
  were actually direct understand how you're not screaming at me
• 1:29:47
  now and I hear what you're saying.
• 1:29:49
  Do you understand this? Yeah, he's like a human
• 1:29:51
  interaction here. Thank you so much.
• 1:29:54
  So test just decides to walk. She gets to a gas station or
• 1:29:58
  their stories kind of go back and and forth a little bit.
• 1:30:00
  So I'm just going to kind of describe test and then I'm going
• 1:30:02
  to scribe AJ. Yeah, so she walks down to a gas
• 1:30:05
  station and she calls the cops and the cops are very dismissive
• 1:30:09
  of her. But she was like, I haven't held
• 1:30:10
  prisoner for. I don't know how long there's
• 1:30:12
  somebody else down there and so the cops are kind of humoring
• 1:30:16
  her but it's clear they're not taking her seriously.
• 1:30:18
  They're getting other calls on the radio.
• 1:30:20
  I think that she's like a crackhead or something like
• 1:30:22
  somebody. I mean, she's in a bad part of
• 1:30:23
  town, she's looking rough, they think that she's like a homeless
• 1:30:26
  person most likely and them, you know, they're like, oh, Fine.
• 1:30:30
  We'll go with you. And if all doesn't have a key to
• 1:30:33
  the house or her ID or her ID, like she's got nothing to prove
• 1:30:37
  anything of what they're saying. He's like, the only thing I can
• 1:30:40
  see is that you busted. This window is the only crime I
• 1:30:42
  see here. There's nobody in the house.
• 1:30:44
  The window is busted out words detection?
• 1:30:48
  Oh yeah. The grass the glass from the
• 1:30:50
  window is all on the yard out front of the house instead of in
• 1:30:54
  the basement. Yeah so yeah maybe she busted
• 1:30:57
  the window but she did it from inside.
• 1:30:59
  I'd yeah. And then the cops get a call.
• 1:31:02
  I was like, hey, there's like a shootout going on over here and
• 1:31:04
  the fucking cop just rolls his eyes.
• 1:31:06
  Like, that's how jaded these motherfuckers are.
• 1:31:08
  She's like, okay, I guess I'll go do my job and then they get
• 1:31:12
  back in the car. And she's like, freaking out
• 1:31:15
  because they're completely blowing her off.
• 1:31:17
  And they like Mean, Mug. Her as they're driving off to,
• 1:31:20
  like you fucking piece of shit and it's like these guys fucking
• 1:31:23
  suck. Yeah, these are the words like
• 1:31:25
  shitty cops. In horror.
• 1:31:26
  Movies are kind of a normal thing, but Guys are just fucking
• 1:31:31
  bad. It's kind of gross because like
• 1:31:34
  this is almost kind of feels like a realistic depiction to of
• 1:31:36
  how people can be treated. Sometimes it's the exact
• 1:31:40
  opposite of like giving the benefit of the doubt, they're
• 1:31:43
  seeing the worst case scenario and they are not doing anything
• 1:31:46
  about it. Yeah.
• 1:31:47
  We're the exact moral opposite of test.
• 1:31:50
  Exactly. Yeah.
• 1:31:51
  So meanwhile AJ downstairs, has gotten away from the mother and
• 1:31:55
  is following this line down the hall and he gets to the point
• 1:31:58
  where she won't even Follow him. So he gets into this room.
• 1:32:01
  Richard break. Is there somehow still alive?
• 1:32:05
  Barely it seems. Yeah, he's just sitting laying
• 1:32:07
  in a bed and he can't even speak.
• 1:32:10
  It doesn't seem and he's just like, yeah, he's on his last leg
• 1:32:14
  and so I just like, yeah, I don't know what's happening out
• 1:32:17
  there but don't worry. I'm gonna get out of here.
• 1:32:19
  I'm going to call the cops. They'll be swarm in this place
• 1:32:22
  and Frank is like oh shit. So he is digging out his gun
• 1:32:26
  because he knows what cops swarming.
• 1:32:27
  The place is going to mean for him.
• 1:32:28
  He should fuck. No, the cops aren't going to
• 1:32:30
  come. Yeah.
• 1:32:31
  Like they were literally just here yet.
• 1:32:33
  Hey, did not care. So they just kind of looking
• 1:32:37
  around trying to figure out, you know, where to go from here.
• 1:32:41
  What resources, he has available.
• 1:32:42
  He pops in a VHS of one of Frank's victims.
• 1:32:46
  It says gas station redhead because like he's got a bunch of
• 1:32:50
  VHS tapes that are also around there and they're all peoples
• 1:32:53
  names. This one doesn't have a name.
• 1:32:55
  Yeah, it's either names or descriptors.
• 1:32:56
  Yes. Oh yeah, he pushes it into the
• 1:32:59
  VCR player and then he's watching it.
• 1:33:01
  We don't get to see what it is, but he has a horrified reaction.
• 1:33:04
  He's like, what the fuck is wrong with you?
• 1:33:06
  Why would you do that to somebody?
• 1:33:08
  And meanwhile, while all that's been going down, Richard break
• 1:33:11
  is reached into the drawer of his bedside table or drawer.
• 1:33:16
  And pulls out a gun, just a little crazy.
• 1:33:20
  He's about to shoot him, but yeah, you just shoots himself.
• 1:33:23
  So now, AJ has a gun. Yeah.
• 1:33:24
  So he takes the gun and his phone with the light and he goes
• 1:33:28
  walking down the hall. Upstairs test has broken another
• 1:33:32
  window. Gotten into the house, grabbed
• 1:33:35
  her keys and she gets into her car.
• 1:33:38
  The mother runs out at this point and test just runs into
• 1:33:42
  her and the house. Yes.
• 1:33:46
  Then she does not face. Yeah, I mean, she stopped moving
• 1:33:49
  but it doesn't seem like she's dead.
• 1:33:52
  So Tesco's downstairs, and she's looking for AJ and the second
• 1:33:56
  age I see is movement even though test is probably like A
• 1:33:59
  full six inches shorter than the mother.
• 1:34:01
  He shoots her. Yeah, I don't know man.
• 1:34:06
  Like I, If I were in his situation, I don't know if I
• 1:34:09
  would be, I would be on edge. I don't think anybody would
• 1:34:13
  willingly go down there, but then again, he doesn't really
• 1:34:15
  know tests, but he shoots her and he feels bad about, he tries
• 1:34:21
  to like get her up and he helps her out of the house.
• 1:34:24
  She's resin. We still.
• 1:34:25
  Okay, it should. Yeah, it's a gut shot.
• 1:34:28
  It doesn't feel good, but Not going to immediately kill her.
• 1:34:31
  Yeah so they scream like a little revolver so yeah, they're
• 1:34:35
  back outside the mother's missing and they he doesn't have
• 1:34:40
  the keys to his car because for some reason, he brought his car
• 1:34:44
  keys into the basement. When he was measuring it I don't
• 1:34:47
  under I mean unless he just forgot them in his pants and
• 1:34:50
  like, they just fell out. We don't really see what
• 1:34:52
  happened there. That's just kind of like I don't
• 1:34:54
  know. They're just like in his car
• 1:34:56
  keys are gone. Yeah, it's just he know.
• 1:34:57
  He says he dropped him in the tunnel.
• 1:34:59
  Okay well there it is. Yeah it just kind of feel like a
• 1:35:02
  scripting. Oh and by the way I guess
• 1:35:04
  they're gone now you know? But it has like okay I know a
• 1:35:07
  place we can go, she directs them to the water tower which is
• 1:35:10
  where Andre says he stays at night and it is that would be
• 1:35:13
  safe enough. Did he tell her that before?
• 1:35:16
  Okay, I couldn't remember I can I was like how the fuck does she
• 1:35:19
  know where he is. So while they're in there, he
• 1:35:22
  gives the background on the mother and Frank and says
• 1:35:24
  basically Frank would have ducked.
• 1:35:25
  These women assault them Have kids with them and then have
• 1:35:30
  kids with the kids. Yeah.
• 1:35:32
  It's all been like, over a span of 40 years.
• 1:35:34
  Yeah, it's really fucked up and we get a moment here with AJ and
• 1:35:42
  it's like, almost as if he's trying to have a change of
• 1:35:45
  characters, like, because Andre is like, oh, did she do that to
• 1:35:49
  you and Tess is like, what was that is him actually, that did
• 1:35:54
  it. He's like, you know what, maybe
• 1:35:56
  I'm not a bad guy, maybe I'm just a good guy that did a bad
• 1:35:58
  thing I'm like, nah. Dude you're kind of a piece of
• 1:36:01
  shit like he's having a moral quandary.
• 1:36:03
  He's like maybe realizing that he's not this infallible person.
• 1:36:08
  That he's been acting like he is.
• 1:36:10
  Yeah. And then the mother burst in the
• 1:36:14
  oh, yeah. Like whenever they're like, by
• 1:36:16
  the way, like are we safe? Here is like, yeah, I've been
• 1:36:18
  living here for 15 years. She's never been here as he says
• 1:36:21
  that she's very, very Samuel. L Jackson, a deep blue sea.
• 1:36:25
  Oh yeah, very nice. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:36:28
  So she bursts in it. Those Andre so they yeah they go
• 1:36:32
  running. They climb up the water tower
• 1:36:35
  they have okay before they got in there by going through the
• 1:36:39
  fence there's like a cut in the fence and they go through there.
• 1:36:42
  It could have gone through that again here, they knew where it
• 1:36:44
  was. They went through it themselves.
• 1:36:47
  Andre was the one that lifted it up and help them through.
• 1:36:49
  I don't think they knew exactly where it was and they were
• 1:36:51
  panicking. Okay, I've got another solution.
• 1:36:53
  Okay. They can't climb the fence
• 1:36:54
  because it's Barbed wired. I say get up to The water tower
• 1:37:00
  as high as you can, that isn't going to be fatal for you to
• 1:37:03
  jump and then get on the rail and then jump over the fence.
• 1:37:09
  It's either that we're faced. The mother.
• 1:37:11
  I don't know, pick your poison. That's highly far distance.
• 1:37:14
  To jump, know if you get like, up a little bit.
• 1:37:18
  I think that the way it's laid out, I was looking at it, I
• 1:37:20
  think you could queer it pretty easily without actually doing
• 1:37:23
  any damage to you. I don't like tests could have
• 1:37:25
  test is probably fucked. Yeah, ends up happening.
• 1:37:29
  Is they climb the water tower and test is telling AJ to use
• 1:37:32
  the gun, he panics and drops it. And then he's like, She's going
• 1:37:38
  to keep coming for us, no matter what.
• 1:37:41
  I can still get away, you're going to do to slow down and
• 1:37:43
  then he drags tested out to the water tower and says, come get
• 1:37:46
  your baby and throws her. And if you didn't feel bad
• 1:37:49
  enough that the mother like The mother is a product of her
• 1:37:56
  upbringing and literally in a situation where she doesn't know
• 1:37:59
  any better. In many ways is also a victim
• 1:38:02
  herself, not that she's not doing bad things to people now
• 1:38:05
  that she's not murdering them. You're kidnapping him or
• 1:38:07
  anything her only experiences have been with Frank Richard
• 1:38:11
  previous character in like the videotapes that she's seen from
• 1:38:15
  him and like the breastfeeding video.
• 1:38:17
  So all she knows is violence and like breastfeeding.
• 1:38:20
  Yeah. And she Is distraught at test
• 1:38:24
  being thrown and Dives after her.
• 1:38:26
  Yeah. And just to break her fall.
• 1:38:29
  Yes, Justin Wong. Don't know.
• 1:38:32
  I keep calling him just annoying, but he goes with down
• 1:38:33
  there to check on her and he's like, you know, like I didn't
• 1:38:37
  like I didn't have any other option, you just kind of like
• 1:38:39
  slowest. Yeah.
• 1:38:41
  He's just lying, like changing the course of everything.
• 1:38:44
  I just trying to gas lighter hoping that she's got like some
• 1:38:47
  sort of a head injury and he can convince her that he didn't
• 1:38:49
  throw her. Yeah.
• 1:38:51
  So what happens is, The mother is still alive.
• 1:38:54
  So she grabs Jay. Jay, Jay because he tried to
• 1:38:58
  kill her baby and gouges his fucking eyes out and rips his
• 1:39:03
  head apart and rips his head apart.
• 1:39:05
  Yeah, very gnarly, I love the and then Tess is still laying on
• 1:39:10
  the ground. The mother tries to take care of
• 1:39:12
  her and does this thing where she kisses her finger and then
• 1:39:16
  like oops her forehead? You know, like a little sweet
• 1:39:18
  thing but Tess has the gun. She knows what she's got to do.
• 1:39:23
  She's sticks it to the mother's head and boom.
• 1:39:26
  We get credits credits to be my baby poof.
• 1:39:30
  I fucking love how this movie ends.
• 1:39:32
  It's like a fucking exclamation mark right there.
• 1:39:35
  You don't get like the wind down like the cool down.
• 1:39:37
  Like you know, you don't get any like back.
• 1:39:39
  Like just anything afterwards. I just like how it just stops
• 1:39:42
  there. It's a good place to stop it.
• 1:39:44
  And yeah, that's the fucking movie.
• 1:39:47
  I'm keeping out of ten out of ten.
• 1:39:49
  I have nothing. I would change about it, I
• 1:39:51
  agree. Yeah, fucking two notes.
• 1:39:52
  In this movie is amazing. I love it so much.
• 1:39:56
  What did Talia think of this one?
• 1:39:59
  Well, Talia had a little pillow tantrum at the beginning.
• 1:40:05
  She laid down through most of it and then with 31 minutes left
• 1:40:08
  decided she needed to go out. So she was a little bit all over
• 1:40:11
  the place with it. She have her sweep.
• 1:40:14
  No, that was after. Okay, I think that Talia cause
• 1:40:17
  she's got her babies that she likes to take care of by chewing
• 1:40:21
  open and also removing the eyes from.
• 1:40:24
  So I think Talia greatly Sympathize with the mother and
• 1:40:27
  we've also just show her fucked up shit to with horror movies,
• 1:40:30
  kind of like Richard breaks character does.
• 1:40:33
  So I think we're going to call this an 8 for Talia.
• 1:40:36
  Yeah I think she liked it because she thinks it's great.
• 1:40:39
  Yeah, and Zoe did watch. Yes.
• 1:40:42
  She went from my lap to the dog bed to my lap.
• 1:40:47
  Actually the whole family was invested in this one.
• 1:40:49
  Scout came down for this one, too.
• 1:40:50
  Scott was very into it. Yeah, everybody liked this movie
• 1:40:54
  that should be like on. On the, that should be the title
• 1:40:57
  card. Your cats will like this movie
• 1:41:00
  fun for the whole family tagline.
• 1:41:04
  Dude, that's the tagline fun for the whole family, perfect?
• 1:41:08
  Okay. All right.
• 1:41:11
  Who did you relate to? Tess, did you because I get she
• 1:41:18
  was you I think that you would have done things a lot
• 1:41:21
  different. I definitely would have done
• 1:41:22
  things differently, but she did a lot of really smart things to
• 1:41:24
  ya. So out of all of them, yeah,
• 1:41:27
  she's the one I related to the most.
• 1:41:29
  Yeah, I think I would relate to her too.
• 1:41:32
  Because like, I mean, I don't think Keith or Bill scarce
• 1:41:35
  cards. Character is really a bad guy.
• 1:41:37
  Maybe he is because like at the end there is kind of
• 1:41:39
  questionable about why? The fuck he didn't really care
• 1:41:41
  about that. At room or why he wasn't really
• 1:41:44
  taking anything seriously. He could have been bad but Tess
• 1:41:48
  she was just like she was a good person.
• 1:41:50
  She's just wanted to like, actually she always went back
• 1:41:54
  for people. Yeah.
• 1:41:55
  She don't know, she just wanted to actually do good.
• 1:41:59
  She wanted to be like an actual good thing in the world, so it
• 1:42:02
  sucks. But yeah, that's something
• 1:42:05
  better to relate to than anybody else in this movie, okay?
• 1:42:11
  Dream sequel, dream sequel. Well, everybody's dead in this
• 1:42:19
  movie. So I think we would have to do
• 1:42:22
  prequel. I would like to see, like kind
• 1:42:26
  of a prequel where it's Keith arriving and maybe he had a
• 1:42:31
  weird situation when he arrived and maybe he's not 100% a good
• 1:42:35
  guy to, that would be awesome. Actually like if we did find out
• 1:42:38
  that he is kind of fucked up and he Yeah, but we keep that
• 1:42:42
  ambiguity going for a lot of the movies.
• 1:42:44
  You don't really know. Like maybe he actually set up
• 1:42:48
  that room, like that's why they go at school.
• 1:42:52
  I come on down, like we can go check it out together like it's,
• 1:42:54
  you know, just a bucket, a camera in a bed, you know,
• 1:42:57
  sounds like a good time to me, that actually sounds like it
• 1:43:01
  could be interesting if you did something like that.
• 1:43:04
  Okay. Yes, a reviews.
• 1:43:06
  Yes. All right, obviously I went with
• 1:43:09
  a negative review for this one because we fucking love this
• 1:43:12
  movie. We've been very vocal about it
• 1:43:14
  since we've seen it. So I got a one-star one off of
• 1:43:17
  IMDb. Okay.
• 1:43:20
  It's titled I honestly can't believe people like this movie.
• 1:43:24
  What am I missing? The entire plot was so stupid
• 1:43:27
  main character books. The stay in a house in Detroit
• 1:43:30
  without Google mapping the area. Uh-huh.
• 1:43:34
  All the hotels and Detroit are booked because of the
• 1:43:36
  convention. Uh-huh.
• 1:43:37
  By the way, these are Hans Army. It's actually in the review.
• 1:43:41
  She leaves for Jeep outside all night and isn't completely
• 1:43:43
  vandalized. Uh-huh, she goes down.
• 1:43:46
  Dark hallway by herself. Uh-huh guy goes down.
• 1:43:50
  Completely dark and tunnel tunnel by himself with no
• 1:43:52
  flashlight. Uh-huh, old couple living for 40
• 1:43:55
  years in basement with no food supply.
• 1:43:57
  Uh-huh. Malnourished woman is super
• 1:44:00
  strong and can leap out of pit with Justin Long on her back.
• 1:44:05
  Cops completely. Ignore a woman who says she's
• 1:44:08
  she was held captive because they think she's a crackhead
• 1:44:11
  even though she's beautiful inarticulate.
• 1:44:13
  Uh-huh. Guy accidentally shoots girl
• 1:44:15
  even though his flashlight was shining on her.
• 1:44:17
  Uh-huh guy. Completely forgets.
• 1:44:20
  He has gun then fumbles it away. Uh-huh girl was thrown off water
• 1:44:24
  tower but super strong malnourished woman jumps after
• 1:44:27
  her point. Three seconds later and cushions
• 1:44:29
  her fall defying law of gravity. Uh-huh.
• 1:44:33
  So So we replace those aha's with dings, and you have the
• 1:44:38
  cinema sins of a sudden, oh, my God.
• 1:44:40
  You're right. I used to like CinemaSins when
• 1:44:43
  it was kind of like tongue-in-cheek, but now it's
• 1:44:45
  just like, hey, how obnoxious can we be about this movie?
• 1:44:48
  Yeah. Having to pick he.
• 1:44:49
  Can we be and, like, whatever Different Strokes for different
• 1:44:53
  folks and maybe there are some worthwhile things to talk about
• 1:44:55
  there, but I also feel like some of that was deliberately missing
• 1:44:59
  the point of the movie. Yeah.
• 1:45:01
  And like with anything like this, you kind of have to like
• 1:45:04
  Like, suspend your belief, I don't know.
• 1:45:07
  I just like, you have to fucking go along with the ride.
• 1:45:10
  Yeah. Mike, uh, that Gregor said,
• 1:45:13
  like, if you started thinking too hard about this stuff and
• 1:45:15
  like people actually behave the way they should, then there
• 1:45:17
  wouldn't be a movie. Yeah, I things played out how it
• 1:45:20
  should. Yeah, it's just it's not fun.
• 1:45:21
  That way. Just fucking have fun with a
• 1:45:23
  man. Yeah.
• 1:45:25
  Okay, listen to reviews. Okay.
• 1:45:28
  All right. So we have a decent amount
• 1:45:29
  today. We'll start off with our loan
• 1:45:32
  Twitter review. So we have a Kweli boobs.
• 1:45:36
  Okay. Says, loved it the first 30
• 1:45:39
  minutes had you going one way then?
• 1:45:40
  Bam. Mine fucks you back to the
• 1:45:42
  drawing board. Second half of the movie wasn't
• 1:45:44
  as good as the first half in my opinion.
• 1:45:46
  But Justin long did do a good job at playing a creepy dick
• 1:45:50
  that ending though. Fuck me whole movie was a wild
• 1:45:53
  ride. Yeah, I definitely agree.
• 1:45:56
  However, I think that it doesn't lose steam at all.
• 1:45:59
  I think the second half of the movie is still pretty strong.
• 1:46:03
  Okay, I think it's a A strong. It doesn't hold it back any
• 1:46:05
  personally. Yeah, I think I was a very
• 1:46:07
  needed tonal shift to keep it. Watchable.
• 1:46:10
  Yeah, I think so too, because like, otherwise, it just becomes
• 1:46:13
  like you're being beaten over the head with the tension and
• 1:46:16
  red. Yeah, which is nice sometimes
• 1:46:18
  but I feel like this made it a very balanced movie.
• 1:46:20
  Yeah. That right there gives you the
• 1:46:22
  whether you need. I mean we could have stuck in
• 1:46:24
  the basement but I think the movie would have suffered as a
• 1:46:27
  result. Okay?
• 1:46:29
  Over to Instagram. Cube saves says, weird sequel to
• 1:46:34
  Big Momma's House. I've never seen Big Momma's
• 1:46:37
  House. Yeah, I have no clue what the I
• 1:46:40
  don't understand that review. Sari Singh, the reference here,
• 1:46:44
  Robert Zone says, best of 2022. Brilliant creepy feels real.
• 1:46:49
  Yes, agreed. Yes.
• 1:46:51
  Taxidermy or yeah, Taxidermy potato says, really good. 9, out
• 1:46:56
  of 10. And then we have some people who
• 1:47:00
  actually elaborated on their thoughts here.
• 1:47:03
  So first off, we have Tucker says the movie where in Justin
• 1:47:09
  Wong gives his most Justin Wong performance in his long career
• 1:47:12
  of Justin longing. Perfectly mysterious tension
• 1:47:16
  building and grotesque and a little Richard break is always,
• 1:47:19
  welcome. And often.
• 1:47:21
  Maybe never drink Dairy again, okay?
• 1:47:24
  Like, you Yeah, I agree fucking just along is doing this shit in
• 1:47:30
  this movie. Just as he always says, Michael
• 1:47:34
  Lee. Howard says, wow, I've waited
• 1:47:37
  every trailer to this movie and glad I did Barbarian is a horror
• 1:47:41
  film, and all the sense in the world split into three acts.
• 1:47:45
  Each one filled with a different type of dread.
• 1:47:48
  I found myself holding my breath and wanting to yell at my
• 1:47:50
  screen. There are twists and turns and
• 1:47:52
  the left that left me seriously thinking about it for days.
• 1:47:56
  And after I watched it burn, Is full of the grossness.
• 1:47:59
  It is to be a human. Well acted with a great script.
• 1:48:03
  I give it a 10 out of 10. Nice.
• 1:48:06
  Yes. And the final one is Amber.
• 1:48:11
  Our Patriot, she says, I actually screamed once during
• 1:48:15
  this movie and squirmed wildly in suspense for a huge part of
• 1:48:18
  it, I feel like it's well told because they managed to tell the
• 1:48:22
  story in a way that also didn't over explain it in most Parts.
• 1:48:26
  The way they showed the man following the woman and telling
• 1:48:28
  a lie to unlock her window and then showed her dress in the
• 1:48:32
  dungeon gave me an increasingly 66 sinking filling the character
• 1:48:37
  development of the main character from make everyone
• 1:48:39
  else feels comfortable to know. I want to live, Phil's
• 1:48:42
  effective. And so frustrating.
• 1:48:45
  The Real Horror in this movie was being a woman existing
• 1:48:48
  period in so many ways and the tragedy and sadness of the main
• 1:48:52
  character knowing that the monster she was killing him.
• 1:48:54
  The end was really just a mentally ill product of her own
• 1:48:57
  Bringing was next, fucking level early and Next Level fucked up,
• 1:49:02
  even without reading into all of those things, I feel like this
• 1:49:05
  movie was effective. It was a 10 out of 10 for me.
• 1:49:07
  It was a really well thought out of you right there.
• 1:49:09
  I agree. That's a great Point.
• 1:49:11
  Yes, it's like captured everything I love about this
• 1:49:13
  movie. All right, so that's it for my
• 1:49:17
  reviews and that is it for this episode.
• 1:49:19
  Yeah so like I said this weekend will be a to be or not to be.
• 1:49:23
  And next week is my birthday week.
• 1:49:26
  Yeah. So we're Are going to watch 2017
• 1:49:31
  s Truth or Dare. This is not the Lucy Hale one.
• 1:49:34
  That's 2018 problem. This is sci-fi made-for-tv,
• 1:49:39
  personally, I think it's better. So currently maybe you can watch
• 1:49:45
  it on to be, I don't know. It's a little bit weird the way
• 1:49:47
  this one pops up when you try to look at where to watch it.
• 1:49:50
  Pretty sure. It's also available on YouTube
• 1:49:52
  to watch. Worried.
• 1:49:57
  Like if people are actively trying to take it down and take
• 1:50:00
  advantage of it, you can also stream it.
• 1:50:01
  If you have a premium subscription to Hulu YouTube TV
• 1:50:04
  or sling TV, I think there's sci-fi or you can rent it from
• 1:50:08
  Redbox Google play Voodoo or prime, okay cool.
• 1:50:12
  And it's one that I have a lot of love for and I'm really
• 1:50:15
  excited to talk about. Yeah, Jesse's birthday movie.
• 1:50:19
  Okay. Well we already did our social
• 1:50:21
  media and everything in the beginning of the episode.
• 1:50:24
  So I think it's time for us to sign off.
• 1:50:26
  Alright. Until next, I'm I
• 1:50:40
  You look like you're about to say something sneeze.
• 1:50:43
  Your 10 a.m. okay.
