  Speaker 4: Welcome to Movie Meltdown. I'm Brian.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: I'm Misty.
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: And I'm Jay.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: And we're coming to you live via digital recording from Lexington,
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: home of Scarefest. We are once again back at Scarefest.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: How many years has it been? I didn't go last year.
• 1:41
  Speaker 5: 11,000.
• 1:41
  Speaker 4: That's a lot of years. Pretty much every year since
• 1:44
  Speaker 4: Scarefest began being Scarefest. So, I feel like it is
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: part of our history, our tradition. So, we made our
• 1:52
  Speaker 4: annual stop at Scarefest.
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: And then the bookstores.
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: Well, that's a given, obviously. If you leave the house,
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: you're going to bookstores.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Hell yeah.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: So, before we get into that, have you seen anything? Interesting.
• 2:08
  Speaker 4: We'll say spooky, but it's post-Halloween. But still, you know,
• 2:13
  Speaker 4: we're at Scarefest, so, you know.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: Boyfriend's finally starting to realize that horror movies is the
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: way to go when it comes with me, so he's
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: actually picked the last two movies that we watched. He
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: has been in charge of, and he picked two horror movies,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: so I'm very proud of him. Would you like to
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: discuss the very first one you picked? Sure. Go for it.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Go for it.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: Go for what? Oh.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: What did we watch? Uh... Oh, yeah.
• 2:38
  Speaker 3: Blood Rage.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: A.K.A. Slasher. Slash. A.K.A. Slash. Whatever other titles it had.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: Because apparently it had quite a few titles.
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: Is this the Thanksgiving one?
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: It's not Cranberry Sauce.
• 2:49
  Speaker 4: I am not going to listen because we're doing this
• 2:52
  Speaker 4: for Thanksgiving this year.
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: We're beating you to it.
• 2:56
  Speaker 4: You better just give it a roundabout because we're going
• 3:00
  Speaker 4: to be getting into it in another.
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: Week or so.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: Okay. Well, we watched that. So I guess since you're
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: going to cover it, we won't go into too many details.
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: You can give your general thoughts on it.
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: It's not cranberry sauce. All right. I fully enjoyed this movie.
• 3:15
  Speaker 4: See, I couldn't tell. We brought it up, and I
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: was like, well, I know it's got some sort of
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: basic tie-in, which is all you really get for Thanksgiving.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: There's not a lot of Thanksgiving horror.
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: There are a few.
• 3:27
  Speaker 4: Nothing as horrendous as last year, but that's why I was.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Like, anything. What did you watch last year? Oh. Oh.
• 3:36
  Speaker 4: And nothing bad about the first one. I love the
• 3:38
  Speaker 4: first one. But that second movie, Slash 3, is an atrocity.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: I love Turkzilla. Was it Greg that made that?
• 3:47
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was pretty good.
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: That's a food item. That's totally different.
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: But it came along with it. It was part of
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: the extravaganza, the original extravaganza.
• 3:55
  Speaker 4: The original time. But yeah, that one, yeah, you couldn't...
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: couldn't I watched it all that's all I have to
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: say so I was like okay what can we watch
• 4:08
  Speaker 4: that's gotta be better than that let's at least go
• 4:11
  Speaker 4: old school slasher hey look here's a thing.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: I fully enjoyed it and I did enjoy the brief
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: cameo at the very beginning of the condom salesman at
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: the bathroom of the drive I want to spoiler alert
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: it for you I.
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: Think I saw his name listed anyway so spoiler alert
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: for you guys but I'm gonna know because I'll have
• 4:28
  Speaker 4: watched it in the very as.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: I was watching I'm like holy shit Is that Ted Raimi? Yep.
• 4:33
  Speaker 4: I thought I saw his name in there. I was like, well,
• 4:36
  Speaker 4: he likes to do horror. He'll show up for horror stuff.
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: It's literally like five seconds. Maybe ten. I don't know.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: He's selling condoms.
• 4:43
  Speaker 4: That means they can slap him on the poster and
• 4:45
  Speaker 4: nowadays slap him on the box. Starring Ted Raimi.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: He was at the drive-in. Apparently he was selling condoms
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: at the drive-in.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Yeah, in the bathroom.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: Like you do.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 4:53
  Speaker 4: Which might.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: Okay, because it's pretty early on, so I'm not going
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: to ruin anything. If you go into the drive-in and
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: you're going to make out.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: Prepare.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: No, who gets fully naked at a drive-in? Like, fully
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: ass naked.
• 5:08
  Speaker 4: I mean, based on other movies that I've seen, a
• 5:11
  Speaker 4: lot of people.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: I would think that made people around, you'd be a
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: little bit more covert. You'd keep a little bit of
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: clothes on.
• 5:16
  Speaker 4: But you're at least supposed to plan ahead and get
• 5:19
  Speaker 4: a van. And then you just go in the back
• 5:22
  Speaker 4: and do whatever you want.
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: They were just in a car, not even tinted windows,
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: because this was like, what? Yeah, they didn't... Take place in.
• 5:30
  Speaker 3: 70s.
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: The first opening scene takes place in the 70s.
• 5:32
  Speaker 4: They didn't have functional tinting.
• 5:34
  Speaker 3: Exactly.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: That's a 90s thing. So you're in a fairly populous area,
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: and completely buck naked. Because when the murdering takes place,
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: the chick runs from the vehicle... Ass naked, running, running, running, screaming.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: Now I am sold on this movie.
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: Dude. So, aside from it's not cranberry sauce, it was.
• 5:56
  Speaker 4: Let me ask you this, because we were just going
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: over this. Where did you see it?
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: In our living room?
• 6:02
  Speaker 3: But, I mean.
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: On Tubi. Were you watching it? Okay, you watched the
• 6:06
  Speaker 4: Tubi one and it had nakedness? All right. Because there's
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: supposedly a cut out there where they cut out almost
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: all the violence... And all the nudity.
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: Yeah, that was the made for. Like, that's what a
• 6:14
  Speaker 3: horror movie is. It was made for a cable TV version.
• 6:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah. Because they gave it a different name and everything.
• 6:20
  Speaker 4: But there are at least three different lengths of various
• 6:24
  Speaker 4: cuts out there floating around. So I'm like, we'll probably
• 6:27
  Speaker 4: all just go with Tubi because it's accessible. So as
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: long as it's got blood and nudity, that's all we're
• 6:32
  Speaker 4: looking for. Happy Thanksgiving.
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: And then for this past Friday night extravaganza boyfriend shows.
• 6:39
  Speaker 4: Uh. He chose it. You don't also expect him to
• 6:44
  Speaker 4: remember it. Come on, man.
• 6:46
  Speaker 3: Hold on, dude. I've been hit in the head a lot.
• 6:48
  Speaker 4: You know the drill.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: Slumber Party Massacre.
• 6:50
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Slumber Party Massacre.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: Nice.
• 6:52
  Speaker 4: Tie into earlier today. But before we get to that, okay,
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: what's your wrap up on Slumber Party Massacre?
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: Boobies.
• 7:02
  Speaker 4: All right, well, sold and sold.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: Lots of damn boobies.
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: It is a slumber party, and they're old slumber party people.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: This ain't like six-year-olds, so it's all right if they
• 7:12
  Speaker 4: get naked.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: It's fine. There's a lot of nudity with open windows.
• 7:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 7:17
  Speaker 4: Yeah. Again, this is how things used to work in
• 7:19
  Speaker 4: the old-timey world.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: Well, you know.
• 7:21
  Speaker 4: Specifically movie old-timey world.
• 7:23
  Speaker 3: In the movies, yeah, but I don't remember boobies being
• 7:26
  Speaker 3: all over the place when I was a kid. No, no.
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: I was looking in those windows, but I did not
• 7:30
  Speaker 4: see any.
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: And that bitch knew how to make some Kool-Aid. Because
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: the girl who was invited to the party but didn't
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: go because she heard everybody talking bad about her in
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the locker room because apparently she's just too pretty.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I hate when that happens.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: She starts making them Kool-Aid and I'm like, yeah, bitch,
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: just pour that sugar in there. Yeah, it was... Because
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: usually when you watch a slasher movie, you don't know
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: who the killer is until the movie's almost over.
• 7:55
  Speaker 4: I feel like that came later. Because I watch a
• 7:57
  Speaker 4: lot of weird 70s stuff and I'm like, oh, they're
• 7:59
  Speaker 4: just showing us. They're just telling us.
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: Well, that's kind of what they did with this. I mean,
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: you see the killer like almost immediately.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: But you have no idea who, does he have a name?
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: I don't think he does. You don't know why he's
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: doing it. He's just doing it. But he looks like.
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: I mean, they do make an announcement on the radio
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: that it escaped. It's like on the radio or the
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: TV that somebody escaped out of prison or an insane asylum.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but I'm not sure if it's the same guy.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: Well, who out how other many people are going around
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: killing people all over the place?
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: It's kind of an either or situation for that era, though,
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: because I feel like there were a lot that I
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: remember even into the 80s that like before you got
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: to the big name slashers, like there were all these
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: other ones that were like, and here we're going to
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: watch these people that we know slash people.
• 8:41
  Speaker 5: Yeah.
• 8:42
  Speaker 4: So we you from the get go, you're watching the
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: character that you've started with start killing people.
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: He didn't seem very intimidating or scary.
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: He was wearing double denim.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah. He just seemed kind of just weird.
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: And how did you feel about his weapon of choice?
• 8:58
  Speaker 1: You bitched about that the whole goddamn time.
• 9:00
  Speaker 3: It was not a cordless drill. They had just taken
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: a regular drill and, well, I mean, a larger drill
• 9:05
  Speaker 3: with an auger bit and cut the cord off of it.
• 9:09
  Speaker 3: And you ran around with that the entire time.
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: That makes it cordless. Yeah, yeah.
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: That's how it works.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: No, not at that time.
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: Was there no rechargeable batteries for one of those at
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: that time? Even if there was, you took no time
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: to charge it at any point.
• 9:22
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I don't remember... I don't remember us
• 9:27
  Speaker 3: ever having any rechargeable tools at that time that was
• 9:32
  Speaker 3: that big.
• 9:35
  Speaker 4: It would have drained it in like two minutes.
• 9:37
  Speaker 3: Yeah, rechargeable tools back then, they didn't last very long.
• 9:40
  Speaker 3: I mean, I'm sure there probably were some in the 80s,
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: but I really, I mean, it would have.
• 9:48
  Speaker 4: Had to been the late 80s. This is why, once again,
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: I opt for Murder Party. Did you watch Murder Party?
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: No.
• 9:54
  Speaker 4: Holy shit. You totally need to watch it this Halloween.
• 9:57
  Speaker 4: Except we already passed it.
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: But for this coming.
• 10:00
  Speaker 4: next Halloween. Go back in time and watch it. Yeah,
• 10:03
  Speaker 4: it is so freaking awesome. And there's a very specific
• 10:06
  Speaker 4: power tool thing that goes on that's like, oh, well, see,
• 10:09
  Speaker 4: there you go. This is how things work.
• 10:11
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: But it's funny because at one point, one of the
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: girls picks up a circular saw and That's plugged into
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: the wall and she runs after him. And then the
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: cord gets yanked out of the wall and it stops.
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: It pulls her ass down the stairs.
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: It pulls her ass down the stairs.
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: They understood how it worked.
• 10:30
  Speaker 3: They understood that. They just sort of pick and choose.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: I'm supposed to believe that this guy running around with a...
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: And the drill bit apparently is like razor sharp because
• 10:38
  Speaker 3: he can take it and not only drill through people,
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: but apparently just hitting them with it just splits them
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: in half.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: You could really get that drill to, like, screw into
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: the shelf the other day.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I know.
• 10:50
  Speaker 4: It's a magic drill bit plus two bonus hit points.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah, did he decapitate somebody with that? I can't remember.
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know if he did it with that, but
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: he might have. Maybe he took some time in the garage. Yeah,
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: I don't remember.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: Modified it. Souped it up a little bit.
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: The one guy that was supposed to be, like, the
• 11:06
  Speaker 3: good-looking football guy.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Oh, my God, he was so hideous. He looked like
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: a grown-up version of that one kid from Trick or Treat.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: Yep.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Like the one who ate all the candy.
• 11:15
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah.
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: Imagine him as like a jock 30-year-old because there's no
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: way that guy was not.
• 11:21
  Speaker 4: So we're halfway there in Bad Santa.
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I never watched that. But he's supposed to be
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: the hot guy. Yeah, the guy that like the hot
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: bitchy girl was like hooking up with. That was the
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: guy who lost his head. But we didn't see it happen.
• 11:34
  Speaker 4: So we don't know.
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: Maybe he used other tools that were in the garage
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: when we weren't there.
• 11:37
  Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe.
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: And the weird neighbor that was using a hatchet to
• 11:42
  Speaker 3: kill people.
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: Fucking snails. Was it a hatchet or was it a.
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: The meat cleaver, sorry.
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: Well, that's just going to slime up your meat cleaver. Yeah,
• 11:51
  Speaker 4: you're going to use the meat cleaver.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: He didn't want them getting in his veggies. Geez.
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: I guess.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: Isn't there a better way to keep snails from getting
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: in your vegetables than prowling around at night slashing at
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: them with a goddamn meat cleaver? Like a fucking weirdo.
• 12:05
  Speaker 4: They're all lined with salt. Might also raise a demon
• 12:09
  Speaker 4: or something, but you'll at least keep the slugs away.
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: Dude, there was just so much going on in this.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: And of course there was a shower scene, and there
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: were so many shots of just like, look, here's an
• 12:19
  Speaker 1: ass for a good 10, 20 seconds. Enjoy yourself.
• 12:22
  Speaker 4: They know what they're doing.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: And then, yeah, there were so many, but Brink Stevens
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: had a brief appearance in it.
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: Oh, there you go.
• 12:28
  Speaker 4: Previous guest, Brink Stevens.
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: She was gorgeous.
• 12:31
  Speaker 4: She was very cool.
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: She was the one that got killed in the bathroom. Shower.
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: Well, I guess she... Yeah, was she still in the
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: shower at that point? I don't remember.
• 12:40
  Speaker 3: She was hiding in the shower closet.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: Under a desk?
• 12:43
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: As one does.
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: You know, where you keep the desk in your shower closet.
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: We'll probably watch the sequel later, because I'm pretty excited
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: about that one. I saw the poster, and it looks
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: feckin' amazing.
• 12:54
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 12:55
  Speaker 4: They always have to up it just a little bit.
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 12:59
  Speaker 3: Not the same person. Different person.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: That was also the era when they would just hand
• 13:04
  Speaker 4: off and... take a series and entirely new people will
• 13:08
  Speaker 4: be like, and we're going to make the sequel.
• 13:10
  Speaker 3: And this guy's inspired by the killer.
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: If you bought the rights to it, I guess you
• 13:14
  Speaker 4: are going to make the sequel, aren't you?
• 13:16
  Speaker 3: Because I think originally we were going to try to
• 13:18
  Speaker 3: watch Maximum Overdrive.
• 13:20
  Speaker 4: Another classic.
• 13:21
  Speaker 3: I couldn't find it anywhere for free and I wasn't.
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: Going to I guess I could have looked forward to
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: the bookstore.
• 13:28
  Speaker 4: I do not remember seeing it. I was going through
• 13:31
  Speaker 4: most of the old movies.
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: I haven't seen Maximum Overdrive since the 80s.
• 13:36
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it has been a long time.
• 13:37
  Speaker 3: It's been a really long time. I don't remember anything
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: about it aside from the cover.
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: The one with the semi?
• 13:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: I remember the big green goblin head and Who Made Who.
• 13:49
  Speaker 4: The oh so subtle plug of like a giant Is
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: it a van that's got the ACDC logo on the side?
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: It is just billboard driving through your movie of like,
• 14:00
  Speaker 4: oh yeah, don't forget to buy the.
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: Soundtrack, kids. I don't know if I ever saw it.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: If I did, I was young enough that I don't
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: remember any of it.
• 14:08
  Speaker 4: Well, it's going to be one of your favorite movies,
• 14:11
  Speaker 4: I'm sure.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Will it now?
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: What more do you want? You got an Estevez.
• 14:18
  Speaker 3: Do you not like Estevez?
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: Not particularly.
• 14:20
  Speaker 4: I mean, it's not Charlie Sheen. You got that going
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: for you.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: Yeah. He's just weird looking.
• 14:26
  Speaker 3: Emilio?
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: He's not weird looking.
• 14:28
  Speaker 3: He's Emilio.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 14:30
  Speaker 4: He does look just like Emilio.
• 14:31
  Speaker 3: He's Estevez. Emilio Estevez.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: And he cheated on Demi Moore.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: I didn't even know he was going out with Demi Moore.
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: I remember that.
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: That was a.
• 14:38
  Speaker 4: Long damn time.
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: But I'm pretty sure I heard that he cheated on her.
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: And I'm like, dude, no.
• 14:42
  Speaker 3: It was like mid-80s.
• 14:43
  Speaker 1: You were too weird looking to be cheating on hot chicks.
• 14:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it was kind of weird. Who cheats on Demi Moore?
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: Emilio Estevez.
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: Apparently.
• 14:51
  Speaker 4: Yeah. That's weird.
• 14:54
  Speaker 3: Maybe Demi Moore is just really annoying. Maybe she nags
• 14:59
  Speaker 3: him too much.
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: Is that what it was?
• 15:01
  Speaker 4: I don't know. Demi, if you'd like to come on
• 15:04
  Speaker 4: and give your side of the story, please get a
• 15:06
  Speaker 4: hold of us.
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, Emilio's probably got nothing else to do.
• 15:08
  Speaker 4: Well, but he's not doing anything anymore. He wants to
• 15:11
  Speaker 4: be a director and doesn't want to act, except when
• 15:13
  Speaker 4: they make the duck movies and turn them into a series.
• 15:17
  Speaker 4: Because for some reason, he came out of semi-retirement to
• 15:20
  Speaker 4: be in the hockey ducks mighty ducks yeah they made
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: a series the hockey ducks they made a series of
• 15:28
  Speaker 4: hockey ducks and he came out of retirement to be
• 15:30
  Speaker 4: in it their.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: Ice ball game he's playing with them ducks i don't
• 15:35
  Speaker 6: really care about them sports i don't know if you
• 15:36
  Speaker 6: noticed the sports ball got this stick basketball that's a
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: classic no.
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: What was the one with the dog Air Bud.
• 15:49
  Speaker 4: Or Air Bud Golden Receiver.
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: The fact that you both immediately got it right.
• 15:54
  Speaker 4: There's about 17.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: I won't keep giving you bad dog.
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: Puns as the subtitle. Oh, man. Golden Receiver. Just saying.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: No. Yeah, I would highly... If you have not yet
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: seen Slumber Party Massacre, first of all, the fuck are you...
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: What's wrong with you?
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: Full endorsement.
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: This is probably one of those movies.
• 16:17
  Speaker 3: That would have definitely been like a, like one, one
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: of my friends, we had found this tape that he
• 16:25
  Speaker 3: had taped.
• 16:26
  Speaker 4: Was it in the woods?
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: No, no, it was actually, it was behind his entertainment center.
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: We were like, what's on this? And apparently it was
• 16:33
  Speaker 3: one of those where he had just stayed up late
• 16:35
  Speaker 3: at night and like just recorded all the booby parts
• 16:39
  Speaker 3: from all the horror movies.
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: That's half this movie.
• 16:41
  Speaker 3: Which is pretty much half this movie. So this would
• 16:44
  Speaker 3: have been a movie.
• 16:44
  Speaker 4: I mean, Any teenage boy would be proud to know
• 16:47
  Speaker 4: that man.
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: Back before you could get porn on the internet. That's
• 16:52
  Speaker 3: what I'm saying.
• 16:52
  Speaker 4: Kids today don't understand. Like, you got the internet. It's
• 16:55
  Speaker 4: a world of difference.
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah, you weren't looking at fuzz.
• 17:00
  Speaker 4: You weren't going to the library to check out National Geographic.
• 17:06
  Speaker 4: It was a different world, kids. I don't think you understand.
• 17:09
  Speaker 4: Unless you're an old person. But by then, you've probably
• 17:13
  Speaker 4: already seen Slumber Party Massacre or something. Ah, so you
• 17:18
  Speaker 4: said there was something else you'd watch?
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: I watched a TV show, a series. It was probably
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: one of the most disappointing experiences that I've had in
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: a long time. Because aside from like R.L. Stine and
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Fear Street, Christopher Pike was like one of the major
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: fucking things that I enjoyed as a, you know, kid
• 17:38
  Speaker 1: slash teenager. I still.
• 17:41
  Speaker 4: Christopher Pike is your jam.
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: It is. It's right there. I am here for it.
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: I love Christopher Pike. And when you take Christopher Pike,
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: who I have a deep love and appreciation for, and
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: you take fucking Michael Flanagan, and you mix these two
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: things together, that should be glorious.
• 17:59
  Speaker 4: He's the Riverdance guy, right? Yeah, exactly. It's Michael Flatley.
• 18:03
  Speaker 4: It's sad that I actually did remember.
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I mean, Flanagan, you know, Oculus was fucking amazing. The
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: Haunting of Hill House, fucking amazing. The Haunting of Bly Manor.
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: Fucking amazing.
• 18:16
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: The Midnight Club. Oh my god, bullshit. Because, okay, have
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: you heard anything about The Midnight Club?
• 18:26
  Speaker 4: No, I think I may have seen that it was
• 18:28
  Speaker 4: out there, but once again, there's way too many shows
• 18:30
  Speaker 4: and I can't even put a dent in them.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: Okay, first of all, the book was kind of, the
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: book was at least somewhat depressing, but it wasn't that bad.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: It was a bunch of, it's got a bunch of
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: kids in a hospice, which first of all, not going
• 18:39
  Speaker 1: to be a good time to begin with.
• 18:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah.
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: But they all get together at midnight and they tell stories.
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: Some of them are like kind of uplifting stories. Some
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: of them are just creepy stories. You know, they just,
• 18:50
  Speaker 1: they tell stories. Oh my God. Because see, when I
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: was like, oh, that's going to be the greatest thing ever.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: I love these things. There's no way this can possibly
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: go wrong.
• 19:01
  Speaker 4: Oh, you're setting yourself up for disappointment there.
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: Dude.
• 19:04
  Speaker 4: I don't ever set the bar that high.
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: Dude or dudes. It was, when you take an entire,
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: because Christopher Pike, which is, I love him. He could
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: write a convoluted, complicated, what-the-fuck story like nobody else. And
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: when you try to cram all of that into maybe
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: a 20-30 minute segment?
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: Why?
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Why are you doing this to me? Because you can't
• 19:30
  Speaker 1: explain everything that he put forth in this entire book.
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: Because it was like, each episode's an hour long. And
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: at least half of it's devoted to fucking depressing-ass kids
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: dying in a hospice.
• 19:43
  Speaker 4: Does sound fun.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it is like every there and it's just one
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: mood from the entire beginning to end there's no like
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: high point it is just oh we're all dying okay we're.
• 19:55
  Speaker 4: At the end of the show yeah you're not selling
• 19:57
  Speaker 4: me on this uh yeah.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: I don't yeah i don't intend to i mean and
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: some of the adaptations were better than others because but
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: Because there's one story, The Haunted Heart, which they took
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: at least three episodes to try to flesh it out.
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: So at least that one, I felt like it was
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: at least okay. They left out the Nazis, but sometimes
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: you got to leave the Nazis out.
• 20:21
  Speaker 4: If you're killing Nazis, you can always put them in stuff.
• 20:23
  Speaker 4: People love watching Nazis die.
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: Because the book was this whole thing about there was
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: this evil spirit. That's why the Nazis were so bad.
• 20:30
  Speaker 1: And it's just a thing. And then they did Road
• 20:32
  Speaker 1: to Nowhere. Which is one of my favorite Christopher Pike books.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: And they turned it into absolute bullshit.
• 20:43
  Speaker 3: Nice.
• 20:43
  Speaker 4: That's what you were looking for.
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: It is an entire book dealing with life and death
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: and the good and evil and suicide. There were several
• 20:51
  Speaker 1: in there that had suicide warnings. And it even had,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: which I do enjoy, a good, is it Henry Thomas?
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: Thomas Henry. Fucking Elliot was in it.
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: Yeah, Henry Thomas.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Henry Thomas. Which was too goddamn old to be
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: playing the character in the role.
• 21:04
  Speaker 4: But he's famous. We got Henry Thomas.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: I know. It was just Flanagan. He could probably get
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: a whole bunch of people who were at least in
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: the same age range. Oh, it was just awful. I mean,
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: out of the, was it ten episodes? How many did
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: I end up on my phone during?
• 21:20
  Speaker 3: Oh, I don't know. I was on my phone during
• 21:22
  Speaker 3: most of it.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: When you didn't completely just leave the house.
• 21:25
  Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
• 21:28
  Speaker 4: The review is a show to look at your phone by.
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: If you want a good background sound that makes you depressed,
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: here you go, because that's all you're going to get.
• 21:37
  Speaker 1: Although it does have the Guinness World Record for the
• 21:40
  Speaker 1: amount of jump scares in an episode of TV. The
• 21:45
  Speaker 1: very first episode where it just literally devolves into bullshit
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: jump scares, which they even call out in the show. Remember,
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: she just, ah, ah, ah. You remember the guys walking
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: on the street. Yeah. You were already gone by the
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: first episode.
• 21:59
  Speaker 3: I was already gone by the first episode. I was
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: already like, I don't fucking care.
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: So it just gets a big old round of meh
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: for me, you know? I was... I mean, the cast
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: was okay. The house looked beautiful, but from what I've heard,
• 22:12
  Speaker 1: the house wasn't even, like, there. Like, the entire outside
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: of the house?
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: Like.
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: CG'd it or matte painted it?
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: CG.
• 22:21
  Speaker 4: No, CG. See, matte paintings I can get on board with. CG.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: But you can't tell.
• 22:26
  Speaker 4: I was going to say, if it's done now, you
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: can probably make it where you can't tell.
• 22:30
  Speaker 3: I mean, the house is beautiful.
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: Inside, creepy. But then they just, they go way too
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: into stuff that's not fucking important. Or, they never got
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: into why the creepy dead people, like the creepy old
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: guy and the creepy old woman are there.
• 22:44
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, they didn't go into that, did they?
• 22:46
  Speaker 5: No.
• 22:47
  Speaker 4: Saving it for the next season that they're not.
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: Going to get. Well, they're eating all the years that
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: people don't have left.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: What?
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: Not in the book. And they had this whole subplot
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: about well, all these years ago in the 60s there
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: was this one girl who came to this hospice and
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: she somehow managed to live. Also not in the book.
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: You're just trying to make yourself a little bit more
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: interesting than you are and you're still failing horribly. So,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: spoiler alert, it's not great.
• 23:18
  Speaker 4: Not sold me at all.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: I would rather watch all the Fear Street. I would
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: rather watch those again. Because those were at least fun.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: Until you get to 3. And then the first half
• 23:30
  Speaker 4: of 3 is a snooze.
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: But the wrap up is tolerable. I would rather watch
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: the third part of 3. Or the third part of
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: the series. Because I loved the Fear Street. I did.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Except for the third one. Until you get to the
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: mall again.
• 23:45
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: This one did not have a mall to save it.
• 23:49
  Speaker 1: It's also supposed to be set in the 90s, but
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: yet very felt un-90s. Aside from them constantly throwing 90s
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: songs at you.
• 23:57
  Speaker 4: Well, again, we had that on Peter Street. But at
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: least they did it possibly overly. They did it on
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: top of each other 90s songs.
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Oh, this started off that way. It started off and
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: it's just like boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. But then
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: they were again doing songs that weren't yet released. slobby
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: you know like the one spoiler alert one of them
• 24:19
  Speaker 1: in the hospice dies so at the funeral they're singing
• 24:23
  Speaker 1: time of your life by green day and i'm pretty
• 24:25
  Speaker 1: sure it was not yet out in whatever year this
• 24:28
  Speaker 1: was placed maybe i'm wrong you're gonna did you look
• 24:34
  Speaker 1: at it no but i saw somebody else bitch about
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: it online oh yeah I think this was supposed to
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: take place in like 94, 95? What time? Or what
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: year did?
• 24:43
  Speaker 4: No, that is kind of about that time. Is it?
• 24:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah. Released in 1997. So, yeah.
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: Not at all of it. I also put, was it
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: Flagpole Siddha? What year did Flagpole Siddha come out?
• 24:55
  Speaker 4: Probably around the same time. When did that Katie Holmes
• 24:58
  Speaker 4: movie come out? Because it's in there.
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: That was a good movie.
• 25:02
  Speaker 4: I like that movie. Mostly Katie Holmes.
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: Galactic Pulse said it came out in 97. There you go.
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: Way off.
• 25:09
  Speaker 3: I was pretty sure it came out in the late 90s.
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: So, yeah. Not in there. Or not in that time frame.
• 25:19
  Speaker 4: Seems like somebody, I mean, how long did it take
• 25:21
  Speaker 4: you to Google that? Seems like somebody working on a
• 25:25
  Speaker 4: movie that, even if it's not multi-million dollars or TV series,
• 25:29
  Speaker 4: but either way, all it takes is one flunky working
• 25:33
  Speaker 4: on a crew to be like, hey, I can see
• 25:35
  Speaker 4: when this song came out.
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: Probably what it was was.
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: This song will really fit right here.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: Yeah, this song will really fit right here. Well, it
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: didn't come out. Well, it was the 90s. It'll be okay.
• 25:43
  Speaker 3: Nobody will remember.
• 25:44
  Speaker 4: Aren't there any nerds on your crew that are just like, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hey,
• 25:48
  Speaker 4: I gotta call you out on that. This is what
• 25:50
  Speaker 4: I do.
• 25:50
  Speaker 3: No, because they're probably counting on a lot of kids
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: watching or teenagers or whatever.
• 25:54
  Speaker 4: Yeah, which then they don't know any better.
• 25:56
  Speaker 3: They don't know any better because it's 90s. They're like,
• 25:58
  Speaker 3: it's 90s, right?
• 25:58
  Speaker 4: It's on that 90s channel on my SiriusXM.
• 26:04
  Speaker 3: Same thing with a lot of shows where they do
• 26:06
  Speaker 3: 80s stuff. They'll have certain 80s songs. Same way.
• 26:10
  Speaker 4: I like that I have teenagers listening to SiriusXM. Not
• 26:14
  Speaker 4: retired people, which is who actually keeps them in business.
• 26:18
  Speaker 4: People who rent cars and retire people.
• 26:20
  Speaker 3: What are the kids listening to?
• 26:21
  Speaker 4: They're just streaming it off of some site.
• 26:24
  Speaker 3: I was going to say my kid listens to Spotify,
• 26:27
  Speaker 3: but then I listen to Spotify, but then she's not
• 26:29
  Speaker 3: really a kid anymore.
• 26:30
  Speaker 4: I'll just get stuff off of YouTube because it doesn't
• 26:32
  Speaker 4: cost anything. And actually they have a better mixed up
• 26:35
  Speaker 4: lineup than freaking Spotify. Spotify runs out of songs.
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: In an hour.
• 26:40
  Speaker 4: And I'm like, look, I got all day to listen
• 26:41
  Speaker 4: to stuff. So YouTube, you don't even hear a repeat
• 26:45
  Speaker 4: unless it's like a live version or something like, but
• 26:48
  Speaker 4: as far as tracks, like it's a way better version
• 26:50
  Speaker 4: of streaming music at this point.
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: But yeah, just one big disappointment after another. I was just,
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: by the time I was done, I was just kind
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: of like hate watching it.
• 27:00
  Speaker 4: I was just like, I can see you doing I'm like, no,
• 27:04
  Speaker 4: I'm going.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: To watch it because you have like two weeks to help,
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: you know, get more Meg. Because that's what I've been hearing.
• 27:11
  Speaker 1: When something comes out on a streaming service, if you
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: don't watch it within two weeks, there's a good chance
• 27:15
  Speaker 1: it's going to get canceled. Probably. If you love something
• 27:17
  Speaker 1: and you want to watch it, even if you don't
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: watch it all at once, just like turn it on
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: and go to bed. Make sure that shit gets watched
• 27:24
  Speaker 1: in some form or fashion within two weeks or you're
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: not helping. Which I don't give a shit.
• 27:30
  Speaker 4: At this point, yeah, I don't.
• 27:34
  Speaker 1: But I mean, I don't know. They would have just
• 27:37
  Speaker 1: fleshed out the actual stories instead of just like, oh no,
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: we're going to make it this way. No, don't do
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: it that way. It didn't work. So I'm hoping that
• 27:46
  Speaker 1: if they get a chance to make more, then maybe
• 27:50
  Speaker 1: it'll try to redeem itself. But I'm... Or at least
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: if this is a somewhat successful venture, maybe they will
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: make some that are good.
• 28:01
  Speaker 4: We'll see. I mean, at this point, it's all kind
• 28:03
  Speaker 4: of got a following. Whether it's good or not, but
• 28:06
  Speaker 4: at least it's got enough following that maybe they'll keep
• 28:08
  Speaker 4: throwing money at the idea. So, hopefully so. I don't know.
• 28:13
  Speaker 1: Big disappointment.
• 28:16
  Speaker 4: Well, I watched one thing just recently to kind of
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: get into the mood for our Scarefest activities. And I
• 28:24
  Speaker 4: hadn't seen it in a very long time. Speaking of
• 28:27
  Speaker 4: the 90s, I watched Wes Craven's New Nightmare. So, how
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: long has it been since you've seen New Nightmare?
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: Oh, go back to The Midnight Club. That was the
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: one highlight of the show for me, was that Heather
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: Langenkamp runs the hospice.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: Well, there you go. That is a direct tie-in, because
• 28:45
  Speaker 4: she is the star of this movie.
• 28:48
  Speaker 3: But.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: It's been years.
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: It's been years since I've seen it.
• 28:50
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I had not seen it.
• 28:52
  Speaker 3: I don't remember.
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like I remember watching it when it first
• 28:55
  Speaker 4: came out, and then I... knew of it and remembered
• 28:59
  Speaker 4: it finally more or less but i could not tell
• 29:01
  Speaker 4: you the last time i sat down and watched it
• 29:03
  Speaker 4: and it's amazing just how like ahead of the curve
• 29:07
  Speaker 4: it was it is 1994 i looked up to make
• 29:10
  Speaker 4: sure because i was like i know it was way
• 29:12
  Speaker 4: before every movie became a reboot in its own franchise.
• 29:17
  Speaker 1: Also the same setting a self-aware.
• 29:19
  Speaker 4: Of its own franchise of the thing that they're doing
• 29:22
  Speaker 4: set in the real world where the movies existed in
• 29:25
  Speaker 4: this thing. Like, it is everything that's become the last
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: 10 to 12 years of, like, definitely everything post-Scream, but, like,
• 29:32
  Speaker 4: everything definitely 2000s era just became super self-aware. And this,
• 29:38
  Speaker 4: for 1994, was.
• 29:40
  Speaker 4: Way ahead of that curve and was already doing a
• 29:42
  Speaker 4: pretty well-developed version of the same idea. So, points to
• 29:46
  Speaker 4: Wes Craven, once again, for being ahead of where the
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: rest of everybody was going to end up 20 years later.
• 29:55
  Speaker 4: And I forgot, John Saxon is a good amount of
• 29:57
  Speaker 4: screen time.
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: I forgot.
• 29:59
  Speaker 4: I mean, I know he's in the first one, but
• 30:01
  Speaker 4: I forgot they worked him back in as much as
• 30:03
  Speaker 4: they did. But he becomes kind of a semi-main character
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: before it's over with. As much as anybody is. It's
• 30:09
  Speaker 4: mostly Heather and then that kid from Pet Sematary. Who
• 30:12
  Speaker 4: just basically walks around and creepily sings the Freddy song
• 30:15
  Speaker 4: to himself and says never sleep again. He just sort
• 30:19
  Speaker 4: of talks to himself for about half the movie at least.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't remember it. It's been way too many years.
• 30:25
  Speaker 4: He's a creepy kid, but Those kids are creepy. They
• 30:28
  Speaker 4: play that one a lot. But the whole thing is
• 30:30
  Speaker 4: Heather trying to save this kid. Yeah, it's pretty damn entertaining.
• 30:34
  Speaker 4: I was very impressed with just how ahead of everything
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: that one was. And still has some good... It changes
• 30:43
  Speaker 4: up the Freddy stuff. It changes his glove. It changes
• 30:47
  Speaker 4: sort of his... Even his face looks slightly different. It's
• 30:50
  Speaker 4: a very different variation on all this stuff. But yep,
• 30:54
  Speaker 4: that was... That was my viewing as of recent to
• 30:57
  Speaker 4: get geared up. I mean, we were just standing very
• 31:00
  Speaker 4: close to Robert Englund a little while ago, so got
• 31:04
  Speaker 4: that going for us.
• 31:05
  Speaker 1: We waited in line briefly to see Lance Henriksen, but
• 31:08
  Speaker 1: he was not there at the table, so I gave up.
• 31:10
  Speaker 4: He had other stuff to do.
• 31:11
  Speaker 1: Obviously. I was just like, because I'm like, first of all,
• 31:14
  Speaker 1: I mean, I love, I love Scarefest. I don't want
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: to say anything bad about Scarefest. What I'm going to
• 31:19
  Speaker 1: say is not specifically about Scarefest in general. I don't
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: like people.
• 31:23
  Speaker 4: Well, it's probably even harder for all of us coming
• 31:25
  Speaker 4: out of the last two years of just not even
• 31:29
  Speaker 4: doing anything. Not only not being around tons and tons
• 31:33
  Speaker 4: of people, but most people didn't leave the house for
• 31:35
  Speaker 4: a good year and a half. So it's weird just
• 31:38
  Speaker 4: getting out among people, let alone a whole lot of
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: people and for a very focused thing. So, yeah. It's
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: very strange.
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, there was a lot... Because that was one
• 31:49
  Speaker 1: of my favorite things about Scarefest, was that you could
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: go to it, and generally it wouldn't be that crowded.
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: You could, like, you know, not worry about bumping into
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: somebody or inadvertently smelling somebody who hasn't left the house
• 31:58
  Speaker 1: in the past year and a half. But this was just,
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: I mean, and good for them. I mean, there was
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: just a lot, a lot of people.
• 32:08
  Speaker 3: I think that was with conventions in general, though, because
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: the more I remember it, back in the day when
• 32:14
  Speaker 3: we started doing the conventions... They never seemed like they
• 32:18
  Speaker 3: had that many people.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: And Horror Hound was always a clusterfuck.
• 32:22
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but... Not counting Chicago, because that was nothing but people. Yeah, jeez.
• 32:28
  Speaker 4: But all the other offshoot ones, yeah.
• 32:29
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I think a lot of it had to do
• 32:30
  Speaker 3: with where it was and what city it was in.
• 32:33
  Speaker 3: But for the most part, they still weren't as packed
• 32:38
  Speaker 3: as they are now. It just seems like now everybody's gotten, like,
• 32:45
  Speaker 3: People that wouldn't have been on board with the whole thing. And,
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: you know, with anything else, it draws new fans. And
• 32:50
  Speaker 3: that's cool. There's no problem with it. But I feel
• 32:53
  Speaker 3: in the beginning days, it was still very much the
• 32:57
  Speaker 3: older kind of VHS crowd of old horror fans. And
• 33:02
  Speaker 3: then now it's gotten more because then we had, like,
• 33:05
  Speaker 3: remember when The Walking Dead became big.
• 33:06
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah. Everybody's mom came to horror conventions then. I mean,
• 33:11
  Speaker 4: it was like, oh, I.
• 33:12
  Speaker 3: Want to see that Daryl.
• 33:13
  Speaker 4: He's so hot.
• 33:15
  Speaker 1: He's so greasy.
• 33:16
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it went on from there. It got more and
• 33:18
  Speaker 3: more popular. People started bringing more of their kids because
• 33:21
  Speaker 3: in the beginning, remember, you didn't really see people bringing
• 33:24
  Speaker 3: their whole family.
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: And now it's like a whole family deal.
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: Which is good. I like that. But yeah, it's definitely
• 33:34
  Speaker 4: a change from when we started.
• 33:36
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's what I think. I think there are
• 33:39
  Speaker 3: more people that are into it nowadays, which is what's
• 33:42
  Speaker 3: causing the huge crowds.
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: I've referenced that in the past too. I was like,
• 33:47
  Speaker 4: I think even just talking to, to like people like
• 33:49
  Speaker 4: actors and stuff, I'm like their career hits that turning
• 33:53
  Speaker 4: point of like before when it was just like the
• 33:57
  Speaker 4: handful of hardcore dorks. And then once the convention scene
• 34:00
  Speaker 4: became a scene, yeah, everything just went up a notch,
• 34:04
  Speaker 4: you know, it's like, and then that is just like
• 34:06
  Speaker 4: domino effect since then.
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: We'll remember some of the celebrities, uh, And how easy
• 34:12
  Speaker 3: it was to get their autographs and to be at
• 34:14
  Speaker 3: the table. I mean, for goodness sakes, Danny Trejo. I mean,
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: the first time we saw Danny Trejo, there was not
• 34:25
  Speaker 3: really a line in front of his table.
• 34:28
  Speaker 4: I think that's changed across the board. For any of
• 34:31
  Speaker 4: those bigger names, yeah, they all... For all of them.
• 34:35
  Speaker 4: plan to go ahead and wait for a while because
• 34:37
  Speaker 4: everybody that's a recognizable name, they have got a line.
• 34:40
  Speaker 4: And that wasn't always the case, but again, I know
• 34:43
  Speaker 4: they love that. So I can't, I can't knock it.
• 34:45
  Speaker 4: It's what keeps them in.
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: I'm not knocking it at all. It's great for them,
• 34:48
  Speaker 3: but I'm just saying, remember at that one point, I'm
• 34:51
  Speaker 3: thinking that that has a lot to do with, you know,
• 34:53
  Speaker 3: the popularity of it is it wasn't as popular. And well,
• 34:58
  Speaker 3: It was in that small group.
• 35:00
  Speaker 4: It was a cult thing, and only the cult showed up.
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but now that it's gotten, like I said, with
• 35:04
  Speaker 3: The Walking Dead and a lot of the other things,
• 35:08
  Speaker 3: Face Off. Is it Face Off? The makeup show? The
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: makeup show. That's brought new people into horror because they're like, oh, wow, this.
• 35:17
  Speaker 4: Is a cool show. Also a big thing, accessibility.
• 35:21
  Speaker 3: Accessibility like you go back to the old.
• 35:22
  Speaker 4: Days the vhs hardcore geeks like that's how they were
• 35:25
  Speaker 4: still watching half that stuff because that's the only way.
• 35:27
  Speaker 3: It was available and you're having to order it through
• 35:29
  Speaker 3: mail order there is.
• 35:30
  Speaker 4: As we said earlier so much weird stuff on tubi
• 35:33
  Speaker 4: and every other free channel that's just sitting on your
• 35:36
  Speaker 4: roku now just waiting for you to go all right
• 35:38
  Speaker 4: let's try this and then sometimes they really like them
• 35:41
  Speaker 4: so yeah it's i think it's just become easier for
• 35:44
  Speaker 4: people to become casual fans and now even casual fans
• 35:48
  Speaker 4: show up to a horror.
• 35:48
  Speaker 3: Convention yeah Yeah, you know, you see, just, you know,
• 35:52
  Speaker 3: there were people that I saw there that you were like,
• 35:55
  Speaker 3: normally looking at them, they were not people that you
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: would think of that would go to a horror convention.
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: Like somebody's grandparents?
• 36:02
  Speaker 3: Yeah, people's grandparents, you know, stuff like that. Oh, I
• 36:05
  Speaker 3: do like the horror.
• 36:06
  Speaker 4: The family of Chuckies we saw earlier.
• 36:08
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 36:08
  Speaker 4: There was a mom Chucky and a kid Chucky and
• 36:11
  Speaker 4: a whatever, what's her name?
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Tiffany.
• 36:14
  Speaker 4: Tiffany. And then, what was the other one? Oh, she
• 36:17
  Speaker 4: was something totally different. I think she was throwing off
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: the whole deal. She was Freddy, actually.
• 36:21
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 36:22
  Speaker 4: Because he was there. But, yeah, she was not. One
• 36:25
  Speaker 4: of these things is not like the other, is what
• 36:27
  Speaker 4: I'm saying. But, yeah, it was the whole family just
• 36:30
  Speaker 4: hanging out, taking pictures on the Stranger Things couch. There's
• 36:34
  Speaker 4: another one that, like, that was sci-fi more when it started,
• 36:38
  Speaker 4: but definitely this new season was full-on horror. And, yeah,
• 36:42
  Speaker 4: so think how many people watched Stranger Things when that
• 36:45
  Speaker 4: new season hit. Like, everybody.
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: I did love the new season.
• 36:50
  Speaker 4: It was so much fun.
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: Except for the... I could do without the entire Russia. Yeah.
• 36:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, that was definitely... Was it Russia?
• 36:56
  Speaker 3: It's Russia. That was the low point.
• 36:58
  Speaker 4: Because it just... They weren't really accomplishing that much.
• 37:01
  Speaker 1: And it just kept going. Yeah.
• 37:02
  Speaker 4: It kept going on. And their annoying friend gets on
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: my nerves. Who's the lawyer guy or whatever his name
• 37:09
  Speaker 4: is that went with Winona? He's just kind of obnoxious.
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: I can't remember his name.
• 37:14
  Speaker 4: Yeah. I mean, he comes in handy before the thing's
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: over because he is a master of Kung Fu. It's Obviously,
• 37:19
  Speaker 4: to look at him, you would assume that.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, obviously.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. That was definitely the low point.
• 37:23
  Speaker 4: But everything else was awesome.
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: Eddie.
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: Eddie. Eddie's super cool. We all know.
• 37:29
  Speaker 1: I loved Eddie. He's my favorite part.
• 37:31
  Speaker 4: Eddie was great.
• 37:33
  Speaker 1: And the fact that he could take and become this
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: character in a show that's already so established and become
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: so well-liked. Yeah.
• 37:42
  Speaker 4: Kind of steal the spotlight from these people that have
• 37:44
  Speaker 4: spent years now becoming the big stars that they are
• 37:47
  Speaker 4: because of that show. And he just kind of walks
• 37:49
  Speaker 4: in and he's like, hey, I'm Eddie.
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: This is my show now.
• 37:52
  Speaker 4: I'm taking over this show. You can try to kill
• 37:54
  Speaker 4: me off, but people are still going to love me.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: And I did. I do.
• 37:57
  Speaker 4: Most definitely.
• 37:58
  Speaker 1: Still waiting for him to come to a convention, but
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: good God, can you imagine how long that line's going
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: to be?
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, just the amount of Hellfire Club shirts we
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: saw today. That is true.
• 38:06
  Speaker 4: That's what we should have been counting was Hellfire Club shirts.
• 38:08
  Speaker 1: I lost track of how many Sams we saw.
• 38:10
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 38:11
  Speaker 4: It was, you know, Halloween tie-in. So you got a
• 38:13
  Speaker 4: lot of Sams and What was the other one you
• 38:16
  Speaker 4: kept seeing?
• 38:17
  Speaker 3: I saw several Beetlejuices.
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 38:20
  Speaker 4: I think that's become a staple now. I think it really...
• 38:23
  Speaker 4: He is a universal horror classic monster now.
• 38:26
  Speaker 3: I've seen more at this convention than I think I've
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: ever seen.
• 38:29
  Speaker 4: Once again, accessibility. I went to the Spirit Store the
• 38:32
  Speaker 4: other day, and there's an entire section of just Beetlejuice.
• 38:35
  Speaker 4: Every version of the costume for both boy and girl,
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: and then all kinds of toys and stuff.
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: Is there a slutty Beetlejuice? Yeah.
• 38:42
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 38:43
  Speaker 4: There's just so much stuff that's like.
• 38:45
  Speaker 3: Please, you have to ask if there's a slutty version
• 38:47
  Speaker 3: of anything.
• 38:48
  Speaker 5: Duh.
• 38:48
  Speaker 1: Obviously.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: Obviously.
• 38:51
  Speaker 1: I was impressed to see the cartoon Lydia today.
• 38:53
  Speaker 3: See, I didn't see the cartoon Lydia.
• 38:55
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I was happy to see that.
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: I only saw the movie Lydia.
• 38:57
  Speaker 1: You saw several movie Lydia's.
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely.
• 39:00
  Speaker 3: Well, I like the movie Lydia that was with the Dietz. Or,
• 39:03
  Speaker 3: not Dietz. That were with the Maitland's.
• 39:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I did see a couple of them.
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: Because I saw a couple of red dress Lydia's.
• 39:11
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 39:12
  Speaker 1: And I saw the black dress.
• 39:14
  Speaker 3: I didn't see black dress.
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: She was hanging out with a Beetlejuice.
• 39:17
  Speaker 4: Oh, yeah, that's right.
• 39:18
  Speaker 3: They were at a booth. I forgot about that. I
• 39:20
  Speaker 3: didn't realize that.
• 39:21
  Speaker 1: I was assuming she was a Lydia.
• 39:22
  Speaker 3: I thought that was just her normal.
• 39:25
  Speaker 4: I mean, there it probably could be. It could just
• 39:27
  Speaker 4: be her going to the grocery. So who knows? But... yeah,
• 39:31
  Speaker 4: I know among certain fans that the cartoon is not
• 39:35
  Speaker 4: beloved or people that worked on it that we won't
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: go into right now. But yeah, I always loved the show.
• 39:40
  Speaker 4: And like most people I knew that grew up at
• 39:42
  Speaker 4: that time loved the Beetlejuice cartoon. So it's good to
