• 2:48
  Speaker 6: Look, I don't want to I don't want to jump
• 2:50
  Speaker 6: the shark on the conversation here. But Judy, I think,

  Speaker 6: in my scope of horror films, is probably the most
• 2:59
  Speaker 6: evil villain of any Wow.
• 3:03
  Speaker 3: My heart is something. Thank you. That's such a.
• 3:08
  Speaker 9: It is.

• 3:23
  Speaker 9: Meg pretty much this She's following behind her finder.
• 3:29
  Speaker 8: And they're probably two of the sweetest people you will
• 3:32
  Speaker 8: ever come across. That's that's the truth. You never you'd
• 3:37
  Speaker 8: never think it. I don't know if that's it's good
• 3:39
  Speaker 8: or bad for marketing.
• 3:40
  Speaker 7: They were picture, they were play the opposite everybody, that's
• 3:46
  Speaker 7: the opposite of.
• 3:47
  Speaker 4: What you are.
• 3:47
  Speaker 9: Always that's more fun.
• 3:50
  Speaker 6: That's what they always said about Caine Hotter, you know,
• 3:53
  Speaker 6: who's one of the most notorious uh you know, and
• 3:57
  Speaker 6: every interview I see of that guy, I'm like, this
• 3:59
  Speaker 6: dude's a sweetheart, so.
• 4:01
  Speaker 7: Sweet, so sweet and so fun, and he enjoys his
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: fans so much.
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: True.
• 4:06
  Speaker 6: Yeah, that's I feel like you. I feel like you
• 4:09
  Speaker 6: kind of. I mean, I don't like when people say
• 4:12
  Speaker 6: that actors owe their fans something because I don't really
• 4:15
  Speaker 6: believe in that. But the horror fan base is so
• 4:19
  Speaker 6: dedicated and like, we we tend to take this stuff
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: to the next level and we really want to own
• 4:26
  Speaker 6: it in every way possible. Yeah, I'm sure for you
• 4:30
  Speaker 6: guys going to conventions and stuff, I'm sure you see
• 4:34
  Speaker 6: a lot of excited faces coming up every minute.
• 4:40
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, we never would have ever thought and it wouldn't
• 4:43
  Speaker 3: be this movie if it wasn't for the horror fans. Absolutely,
• 4:46
  Speaker 3: and in your mind, like my mind, horror horror people
• 4:49
  Speaker 3: probably are like horrible, you know, like they're probably like
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: very dark goth people. But everyone's so nice. Everyone's so friendly,
• 4:58
  Speaker 3: everyone's so appreciative. Everybody just like it's so kind to us,
• 5:02
  Speaker 3: Like it's just and I actually think we have such
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: a good time with them that it's true that we
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: are really having fun. And I think they sense that.
• 5:09
  Speaker 3: You know, every picture that our group pictures, everyone says
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: that we're the best cast. Like they just they do.
• 5:15
  Speaker 3: They say we have the most fun, right, We always
• 5:16
  Speaker 3: make everyone feel so good.
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: We just do it.
• 5:19
  Speaker 9: Yeah, it's true. It's it's great.
• 5:21
  Speaker 7: I mean, the first one I ever did, we were
• 5:23
  Speaker 7: together Karen and and it was I couldn't believe that
• 5:28
  Speaker 7: there was a line for our tables to talk to us.
• 5:30
  Speaker 7: And I mean it runs the gamut about there's lawyers
• 5:35
  Speaker 7: and doctors and firemen and librarians and just all sorts
• 5:38
  Speaker 7: of people, and I just it's incredible that we made
• 5:41
  Speaker 7: those people happy, and you don't take that for granted.
• 5:43
  Speaker 7: And just being able to talk to people face to
• 5:46
  Speaker 7: face is just a gift.
• 5:48
  Speaker 4: And it's the world which is fascinating.
• 5:51
  Speaker 8: And now, I mean, now we're we're I mean, for me,
• 5:54
  Speaker 8: it's been I haven't been doing it that long. Did
• 5:56

• 6:24
  Speaker 3: after convention, even though like I haven't been to many conventions, Tom,
• 6:27
  Speaker 3: I think that was wasn't that two years ago? We
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: did that whole Like is it.
• 6:30
  Speaker 4: Two years ago?
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: I'm messed up because of COVID.

  Speaker 3: and we do actually feel like we're sixteen, and we
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: love it. We just love it. Yeah.
• 6:57
  Speaker 5: I was going to ask you guys, like, when did
• 6:59
  Speaker 5: you guys first started like actively doing conventions like that, Like,
• 7:03
  Speaker 5: was after like a while after the film initially came out,
• 7:07
  Speaker 5: or when did things really like start picking up?
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 7:10
  Speaker 7: Yeah, I mean Felssa's been doing it for quite a while.
• 7:12
  Speaker 7: Felissa ever forever. She's incredible. I mean she she's the
• 7:18
  Speaker 7: one who kind of really steamrolled this and got it
• 7:20
  Speaker 7: going and kept it going, and you know, and so
• 7:24
  Speaker 7: lovely to everybody that she became someone everyone wanted to meet,
• 7:28
  Speaker 7: you know, she the way she treats her fans. And
• 7:30
  Speaker 7: then I only started like a year before COVID, so
• 7:33
  Speaker 7: really not that long. And I think Karen and Tom similar, right,
• 7:36
  Speaker 7: I just I just didn't understand the world.
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: I started after you. I and I actually Sawtis at
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: a convention in California just randomly because my son was
• 7:46
  Speaker 3: helping out with makeup, and I was like, you know,
• 7:50
  Speaker 3: I can't do this, Like, I don't understand it. I
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: don't get why people would want to meet me. And
• 7:54
  Speaker 3: it took a while for her to like convince me
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: to and I even was very unsure when I'm I
• 8:00
  Speaker 3: was like, I don't know what this weekend is going
• 8:02
  Speaker 3: to be, Like we're just going to sit at our tables,
• 8:03
  Speaker 3: but at least we have each other. And yeah, but
• 8:06
  Speaker 3: it is true. Felisa's gone. She goes every weekend and
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: we are really lucky because people do love her, and
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: it's just like we are part of that, you know,
• 8:15
  Speaker 3: just because we are a part of her, this connection
• 8:17
  Speaker 3: we have and so it just expands to our luck
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: and you know that everyone loves us too, and it's.
• 8:24
  Speaker 8: Nice to see, Like for Lissa has been doing it
• 8:26
  Speaker 8: so long, it's nice to see that, you know, she
• 8:28
  Speaker 8: helped obviously raise her kids that way, and I mean
• 8:31
  Speaker 8: it's to see the benefit and to see somebody who
• 8:36
  Speaker 8: is so grateful for it and give so much back.
• 8:39
  Speaker 8: It's like, just as a human to watch that interaction
• 8:43
  Speaker 8: is pretty cool.
• 8:44
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know. We've had so down the
• 8:47
  Speaker 6: road from me here in New Jersey, we have monster Mania,
• 8:50
  Speaker 6: which is one of the bigger.
• 8:52
  Speaker 4: We love.
• 8:53
  Speaker 9: We would love to go there.
• 8:55
  Speaker 3: We love because she goes every year. I know she does, yeah.
• 8:58
  Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, but I mean if you guys do, I'll
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: be the first one in line. I could throw a
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: rock and hit the venue.
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: Wow.
• 9:07
  Speaker 6: But every year, you know, going, It's pretty incredible because
• 9:11
  Speaker 6: you think, you know, there's a lot of horror fans
• 9:14
  Speaker 6: as a horror fan, and but it feels so singular
• 9:17
  Speaker 6: because I don't know a lot outside of my wife
• 9:20
  Speaker 6: like that I see in my day to day right,
• 9:21
  Speaker 6: because usually I'm the guy that's like, yeah, I love
• 9:24
  Speaker 6: horror movies and people are like, you know, they scare me,
• 9:27
  Speaker 6: and I'm like, Okay, I'm the weird one. Until I
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: go to a convention and I'm surrounded by people exactly
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: like me, and I have to say it's rare that
• 9:39
  Speaker 6: I feel more fit in ye than they're and these
• 9:43
  Speaker 6: are strangers. I know none of these people.
• 9:45
  Speaker 3: But no sense everyone's connected. It is crazy though, because
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: when we first did the movie, Horror wasn't really respected.
• 9:53
  Speaker 3: And now, I mean a twenty four everybody you see
• 9:56
  Speaker 3: all these huge celebrities they want to do horror. I
• 9:59
  Speaker 3: mean it's like we were there, like you know, a
• 10:01
  Speaker 3: long time ago, and it's just it's just so right away.
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: We didn't do conventions right away to get back to
• 10:06
  Speaker 3: that because it wasn't really like anything. It wasn't respected.
• 10:09
  Speaker 3: I didn't even put it on my I wasn't even
• 10:10
  Speaker 3: sure if I should put on my resume when I
• 10:12
  Speaker 3: went out, because it was kind of it was just embarrassing,
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: is this not I mean? And my family didn't value
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: it at all, So I got and neied. To my friends,
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: I had like not one I would have a praise.
• 10:22
  Speaker 3: So for me, I thought, this is embarrassing, this is
• 10:25
  Speaker 3: not something I want to share. So I would go
• 10:27
  Speaker 3: to auditions and they'd be like, oh, you know, make
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: it to the very end, and they'd be like, well,
• 10:31
  Speaker 3: she didn't do anything, so we'll take somebody who's more experienced,
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: and like it's just that kind of thing, like do
• 10:35
  Speaker 3: you share this? And now here we are, it's like,
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: this is mind blowing.
• 10:39
  Speaker 4: What was amazing was fangoria at the New Yorker.
• 10:43
  Speaker 8: That was for me like mind blowing because I you know,
• 10:48
  Speaker 8: I was living in Asia for a long time and
• 10:50
  Speaker 8: all of a sudden, I start getting these messages from.
• 10:51
  Speaker 4: My buddy Dan. He's like, there are all these websites.
• 10:54
  Speaker 8: The film so big, and I thought it had sort
• 10:57
  Speaker 8: of was bubbling under a little bit because I would
• 10:59
  Speaker 8: say vacations with the kids.
• 11:02
  Speaker 4: In Hilton Head, there was this little mom and.
• 11:04
  Speaker 8: Pop rental shop and it was always like every summer,
• 11:08
  Speaker 8: it was always like in the top three rentals.
• 11:09
  Speaker 4: And I was like, that is so strange. Why would
• 11:12
  Speaker 4: anybody watch this?
• 11:13
  Speaker 8: And then my buddy's sending me all these notes, all
• 11:15
  Speaker 8: these fan sites and everything else.
• 11:17
  Speaker 4: I'm like, this is crazy.
• 11:18
  Speaker 8: And then Robert invited us to Fangoria at the New
• 11:22
  Speaker 8: Yorker and I was living in New Hope, Pennsylvania at
• 11:26
  Speaker 8: the time. I turned around literally three times because of traffic.
• 11:29
  Speaker 8: I was like, forget this, I'm not going into the city.
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: I end up.
• 11:32
  Speaker 8: Going That ballroom was overflowing with people, and that's when
• 11:37
  Speaker 8: it blew my mind.
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: I was like, you've got to be kidding me. This
• 11:40
  Speaker 4: is insane.
• 11:42
  Speaker 8: So many years after yeah, and now there's gonna be
• 11:45
  Speaker 8: a whole new wa with the new with a new
• 11:48
  Speaker 8: remake being done.
• 11:50
  Speaker 4: And wow, it's gonna be pretty cool. It'll live on
• 11:54
  Speaker 4: well beyond us. Yeah.
• 11:57
  Speaker 7: I ran from it my whole career, my agents when
• 12:00
  Speaker 7: we don't put it on your resume, because when it
• 12:02
  Speaker 7: came out in nineteen eighty.
• 12:03
  Speaker 9: Three, it's three, didn't you know, nobody cared.
• 12:06
  Speaker 7: It was just not And so I was like, okay, well,
• 12:10
  Speaker 7: I you know, you have to choose back then, whether
• 12:12
  Speaker 7: you're going to be a serious actor, you know, or
• 12:14
  Speaker 7: television or whatever. And so I thought, well, no, I
• 12:16
  Speaker 7: don't because I did another horror film after that, called
• 12:19
  Speaker 7: Silent Madness, and I didn't want to just do horror
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: because I didn't want to be pigeonholed because that wasn't
• 12:24
  Speaker 7: a you know, it wasn't a great thing to be then,
• 12:26
  Speaker 7: and so I ran from it. So, you know, flash
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: forward twenty thirty years and all of a sudden, you know,
• 12:32
  Speaker 7: we're hearing buzz and you know, Felssa contacts and says
• 12:37
  Speaker 7: you got to come out and see what's happening, and
• 12:39
  Speaker 7: it just blew my mind.
• 12:40
  Speaker 8: But what surprised me as well, which I didn't know
• 12:42
  Speaker 8: until years after, was that, like when it came out
• 12:46
  Speaker 8: that that year and I think it was around Thanksgiving,
• 12:49
  Speaker 8: right it, and it went up in New York. I
• 12:52
  Speaker 8: think it went up against like Yentle and beat Yentle,
• 12:57
  Speaker 8: they bicycled the release, you know, they did New York
• 13:00
  Speaker 8: and then they did they did whatever Jersey and Maryland
• 13:03
  Speaker 8: and bicycle these prints around and it was doing business.
• 13:07
  Speaker 8: So if it had, if it had some real p
• 13:10
  Speaker 8: and a funding behind it, I think even then it
• 13:13
  Speaker 8: would have found its audience, you know.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Yeah, that's bigger. Now it's actually for us and about.
• 13:21
  Speaker 8: To be about to be you know, I hate using
• 13:24
  Speaker 8: the word, but you know, sort of mainstream in the
• 13:27
  Speaker 8: horror space, I guess with this news, you know.
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: And pretty what's funny? What's funny too, especially in comparison
• 13:35
  Speaker 6: to like what was surrounding sleep Away Camp, you know,
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: Friday thirteenth, Halloween before and what came after eighty three,
• 13:41
  Speaker 6: which was really when the excess really started coming in.
• 13:45
  Speaker 4: Uh.
• 13:45
  Speaker 6: Watching sleep Away Camp now is actually kind of funny
• 13:47
  Speaker 6: because it's very subdued compared to most around the time.
• 13:53
  Speaker 6: Like the kill sequences are very brutal. There's incredible makeup
• 13:57
  Speaker 6: effects and they're like it stays with you. But this
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: is a movie that doesn't have nudity. There's no nudity
• 14:07
  Speaker 6: besides the ending shot, right, it's very clean for the
• 14:10
  Speaker 6: most part. Yeah, Yeah, and it's It's funny watching it
• 14:14
  Speaker 6: because as I'm watching it, I'm like, I feel like
• 14:16
  Speaker 6: I was watching it and I'm like, I feel like
• 14:17
  Speaker 6: there was I was like, why did I think this was?
• 14:20
  Speaker 6: Like there was more to this, Like this was more,
• 14:23
  Speaker 6: but I wasn't. Not in a bad way, you know.
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: Yeah, No, it's interesting. Even though guys, you know, they
• 14:27
  Speaker 3: were the short shorts and then the tank tops, but
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: that's actually what they wore in the eighties.
• 14:35
  Speaker 9: There was some app shots of the boys, right, they
• 14:37
  Speaker 9: did a.
• 14:37
  Speaker 6: Moon thing, right, Yeah. There was the skinny dipping scene, yeah,
• 14:43
  Speaker 6: which is yeah, the only nudity is like six dudes
• 14:46
  Speaker 6: running in the water.
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: He don't don't forget my asp don't.
• 14:50
  Speaker 5: Forget my Yeah, chrislay it.
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: I'm sorry.
• 14:56
  Speaker 6: I tried.
• 14:57
  Speaker 9: I tried to get there.
• 14:58
  Speaker 8: That's how I got my big gay following.
• 15:05
  Speaker 3: From the very beginning of the movie. You know, even
• 15:07
  Speaker 3: with you know, obviously already is disgusting talking about the
• 15:10
  Speaker 3: baldies and the what you know, it's so it is there,
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: but it is not undressed. It is there obviously, the
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: closet with you know, the food pantry everywhere, you know,
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: Judy got big whatever, it is consistent. Meg and Meil like,
• 15:23
  Speaker 3: how oft is that?
• 15:24
  Speaker 4: You know?
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: So it's consistently there, but you're not really hit in
• 15:28
  Speaker 3: the face with it, right actually, But in fact it's
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: way before that, because I haven't watched the movie in
• 15:33
  Speaker 3: a long time. Of course, the two dads, so it's
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: like all throughout there is a connection to you know, sexuality.
• 15:39
  Speaker 8: And it's in the Guinness Book of Records that the
• 15:41
  Speaker 8: Megan mel thing. I think it was the first introduction
• 15:45
  Speaker 8: of a May to October romance, and I think I
• 15:50
  Speaker 8: don't know if that's a fact.
• 15:51
  Speaker 4: I looked it up. I thought it was somewhere.
• 15:54
  Speaker 9: Those lips, those lips on mail.
• 15:56
  Speaker 4: You know, I had to compete with that. Yeah, I
• 16:01
  Speaker 4: lost out.
• 16:02
  Speaker 5: Well, I was going to ask I was going to
• 16:04
  Speaker 5: ask you guys, what was your first impression like reading
• 16:08
  Speaker 5: the Sleepway Camp script, Like, did you guys, I mean,
• 16:10
  Speaker 5: I know, you know, taking it back, did you guys?
• 16:12
  Speaker 5: Since it was going to be something so unique within
• 16:15
  Speaker 5: like the slasher boom of the early eighties, or like
• 16:18
  Speaker 5: what kind of caught your eye about that specific script.
• 16:23
  Speaker 3: You want to talk?
• 16:24
  Speaker 4: Oh?
• 16:25
  Speaker 7: Yeah, no, I mean, I you know, it was just
• 16:27
  Speaker 7: it was I was working on a soap at the time,
• 16:29
  Speaker 7: so it was just another audition, but I did want
• 16:31
  Speaker 7: to go into film, so I was very excited, and
• 16:33
  Speaker 7: horror film seemed fun and interesting and and the whole
• 16:38
  Speaker 7: filming at a camp, I mean, everything seemed cool.
• 16:40
  Speaker 9: The script seemed great, so I didn't No one could.
• 16:44
  Speaker 7: Have realized what was going to happen, you know, and
• 16:46
  Speaker 7: how I was going to And I don't recall knowing
• 16:48
  Speaker 7: the ending. I mean I knew, yeah, I don't call
• 16:52
  Speaker 7: knowing the ending, so you know that that kind of
• 16:54
  Speaker 7: blew me away.
• 16:55
  Speaker 9: When we did find out.
• 16:56
  Speaker 4: Did he give us the ending?
• 16:57
  Speaker 9: I can't remember having it right now?
• 17:01
  Speaker 4: Still has the original? You still have the original script?
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: Right I do? That's all of our auditions to find
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: my old passport improv so we didn't do we we
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: all did didn't read lines like you know a lot
• 17:14
  Speaker 3: of auditions are script and we all did improv. So
• 17:17
  Speaker 3: that and then I did never saw it until I
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: got on set, but liked like I would have taken
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: anything because I was, you know, young, and I want
• 17:24
  Speaker 3: to be actress as my dream, and who would have
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: thought that, you know, I would never think anything whatever
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: if it was good about it, you know, I just
• 17:29
  Speaker 3: wanted to do it and have fun.
• 17:31
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it did seem like a fun read.
• 17:33
  Speaker 8: I remember reading it going like, you know, I looked
• 17:35
  Speaker 8: at it very sort of innocently.
• 17:37
  Speaker 4: I think I looked at it like I'll do this
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: one time.
• 17:41
  Speaker 8: You know, I'm young, and I mean, obviously it's different
• 17:43
  Speaker 8: for for for Kathy.
• 17:45
  Speaker 4: Years used Big Soap Star at the time. For me,
• 17:47
  Speaker 4: it was different.
• 17:48
  Speaker 8: I was like, I'll do this and and hang out
• 17:51
  Speaker 8: for a few weeks someplace nice.
• 17:53
  Speaker 4: And you know, on a lake. But then I read it,
• 17:55
  Speaker 4: I was like, I was like, this is actually going
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: to be fun.
• 17:58
  Speaker 8: You know, this is the baseball scene there, softball scenes,
• 18:01
  Speaker 8: all this stuff by the lake. I was just.
• 18:10
  Speaker 4: I could do that.
• 18:11
  Speaker 9: Robot Codd lost Tom for a moment.
• 18:14
  Speaker 7: We can we can fill that gap.
• 18:20
  Speaker 8: I'm not rolling my eyes. I keep looking up at
• 18:22
  Speaker 8: the at the Yankees because.
• 18:27
  Speaker 4: She said she goes on twenty on the Yankees best
• 18:33
  Speaker 4: the House.
• 18:35
  Speaker 5: Yeah, I knew it.
• 18:37
  Speaker 4: Well.
• 18:38
  Speaker 5: I was gonna mention like, so, you know, upon rewatch
• 18:42
  Speaker 5: and the countless times we've seen this before, like the
• 18:44
  Speaker 5: atmosphere of the camp feels so authentic, Like, what was
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: it like filming location? Did you guys have any memories
• 18:51
  Speaker 5: that you felt like capture the spirit of that summer,
• 18:54
  Speaker 5: Like when you guys were filming.
• 18:57
  Speaker 3: I always remember them the spray painting the leaves because
• 19:00
  Speaker 3: it was it was Robert's camp, but it was like
• 19:02
  Speaker 3: I guess it was September. I don't know what month
• 19:04
  Speaker 3: it was, but the leaves had already changed, like changed
• 19:06
  Speaker 3: the phone and they had to spray Pinton green. I
• 19:09
  Speaker 3: remember that and like thinking, oh, this is just magical.
• 19:14
  Speaker 3: You could see whatever you want, make it, make it
• 19:16
  Speaker 3: wherever it is, how you want it.
• 19:17
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I remember. Uh. It was my first role.
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: I just turned eighteen, so it was my first one
• 19:24
  Speaker 7: on my own without a parent there, and so that
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: was kind of fun, staying overnight in a motel you
• 19:30
  Speaker 7: know where we were filming, So it was it was
• 19:32
  Speaker 7: really like kids at camp, you know.
• 19:35
  Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I just want to say real quick, Tom,
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: your mic is muted. If you just want to hit
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: uh at the bottom, there should be a little mic
• 19:43
  Speaker 6: button just say we can get you back there we go.
• 19:46
  Speaker 4: Ah, sorry about that. It wasn't the whole time.
• 19:49
  Speaker 8: Just Chris, just feel free to edit be right out.
• 19:52
  Speaker 8: It's just I have nothing really constructive to add to this.
• 19:55
  Speaker 8: So if you want to go back to the beginning
• 19:57
  Speaker 8: and be you know, past the intro, you can set.
• 20:03
  Speaker 6: I would never we would never do that.
• 20:06
  Speaker 5: I do want to say, I do want to say.
• 20:10
  Speaker 6: In so B. R. Flynn is the author of the novelization,
• 20:13
  Speaker 6: and he did a fantastic job kind of building upon
• 20:17
  Speaker 6: what's there in the movie. But I know he also
• 20:19
  Speaker 6: used an earlier draft of the script that was pretty
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: much like what was there. And one thing I found interesting,
• 20:27
  Speaker 6: one little tiny note that he added is the introduction
• 20:30
  Speaker 6: of Meg is found doing a bump of cocaine in
• 20:35
  Speaker 6: the bathroom before coming out to.
• 20:37
  Speaker 4: Speak to Never heard that, have you ever?
• 20:40
  Speaker 3: Kathy's never heard that.
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: In the novelization. Yes, in the novelization. But when you
• 20:49
  Speaker 6: come out to talk to the campers, like your introduction
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: right right right the scene the scene starts that I
• 20:59
  Speaker 6: think he would do that. I'm here, it's the energy.
• 21:04
  Speaker 8: Yes, she would do that, you said, Chris, You said
• 21:06
  Speaker 8: that was in an earlier draft of the script.
• 21:09
  Speaker 6: I get so supposedly from what I found. B. R.
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: Flynn wrote, based on an earlier draft of.
• 21:14
  Speaker 8: This, We're going to get that draft from Robert. Who
• 21:21
  Speaker 8: knows what other nuggets are in there.
• 21:23
  Speaker 9: That's great. Yeah, I've never heard that. Amazing.
• 21:26
  Speaker 6: I just for the record, I want to say it
• 21:28
  Speaker 6: could have just been something that he added because very well,
• 21:32
  Speaker 6: but if it was either way, when it didn't like
• 21:37
  Speaker 6: I forgot that it doesn't happen in the movie, and
• 21:40
  Speaker 6: I was a little disappointed when it didn't happen in
• 21:42
  Speaker 6: the movie.
• 21:43
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Maybe that would have been too
• 21:46
  Speaker 9: far around the kids and stuff like that.
• 21:49
  Speaker 4: Character needed any more edge. Exactly right.
• 21:54
  Speaker 3: You don't have anything from the you don't have your scripts,
• 21:57
  Speaker 3: you don't have anything from the movie.
• 22:00
  Speaker 9: I don't think so. I don't think so.
• 22:01
  Speaker 3: I have all the dailies.
• 22:05
  Speaker 9: Pictures, some photos, but I mean, do.
• 22:07
  Speaker 3: You have the I have the dailies. I have the dailies.
• 22:11
  Speaker 3: I have like the receipt from like I guess back
• 22:13
  Speaker 3: then we had to maybe it's a receipt for like
• 22:15
  Speaker 3: calling home or something like did we have to use
• 22:18
  Speaker 3: the phone and like call home? And y I think
• 22:22
  Speaker 3: I have that.
• 22:24
  Speaker 9: Of the movie when it came out.
• 22:29
  Speaker 3: Next time.
• 22:29
  Speaker 6: Amazing, there you guys go, I actually found it. So
• 22:32
  Speaker 6: I have I have the novel right in my hand,
• 22:36
  Speaker 6: and it says right here it says, uh, let's see,
• 22:40
  Speaker 6: it says, uh, let's see. Shouldn't say that. They only
• 22:44
  Speaker 6: looked at each other for a brief moment as Meg
• 22:46
  Speaker 6: sniffed and rubbed her nose once again. Oh yeah, it
• 22:49
  Speaker 6: says Meg, whose head was leaning over the sink, stiffened
• 22:52
  Speaker 6: up and rubbed her nose, sniffing. Her novels were red
• 22:55
  Speaker 6: and her eyes weren't much better, though they were big
• 22:58
  Speaker 6: and wide. That is your introduction.
• 23:00
  Speaker 7: Oh my god, Well it was the averages.
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: The eighties up in the woods, n upstate New York.
• 23:08
  Speaker 9: Yeah, that would be weird, Like how would she have
• 23:10
  Speaker 9: gotten it? And like, yeah, that's weird.
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: And and but then I mean, yeah, I mean maybe
• 23:16
  Speaker 7: I see. I still think they think that would have
• 23:18
  Speaker 7: been pushing it too far.
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: Put on, she got it from Mel, That's what I think.
• 23:23
  Speaker 9: I think she got mail. We're going to go off
• 23:26
  Speaker 9: and do it, mad.
• 23:26
  Speaker 4: I express, Yeah, doesn't fall far from that track.
• 23:29
  Speaker 9: That's right.
• 23:30
  Speaker 7: She could have been her, she couldn't make could have
• 23:33
  Speaker 7: been Mel's like dealer or something, you know.
• 23:35
  Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, oh yeah, a little extra cash to keep
• 23:38
  Speaker 8: yeah yeah yeah, all those nine and ten year.
• 23:42
  Speaker 9: Olds, Oh my god, crazy wow.
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: Customers get the customers.
• 23:47
  Speaker 7: Early here though, like all the little things that didn't
• 23:51
  Speaker 7: make it in.
• 23:53
  Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah, it's like I I just thought of me
• 23:54
  Speaker 6: like using the lake is like a channel to get
• 23:57
  Speaker 6: stuff in, you know what I mean. Uh No, the
• 24:00
  Speaker 6: novelization is great because it expands It's actually so I
• 24:05
  Speaker 6: was telling Steve earlier that I actually think the novel
• 24:08
  Speaker 6: made the movie better because of what it expands upon.
• 24:12
  Speaker 6: It gives it a very different Yeah, it gives it
• 24:16
  Speaker 6: much more context, especially in the thoughts of Angela, like
• 24:20
  Speaker 6: you're in her head very very much. But the way
• 24:23
  Speaker 6: that it expands on certain things. It even contains an
• 24:25
  Speaker 6: additional scene after the death of Angela's parents and going
• 24:31
  Speaker 6: into like the first experience with the aunt and kind
• 24:34
  Speaker 6: of her talking about showing her the dresses that he
• 24:38
  Speaker 6: bought and all of that. Suff it really dives in differently.
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: But I would agree that because it sounds interesting, because
• 24:44
  Speaker 3: it sounds like it actually besides the motivation of each character,
• 24:50
  Speaker 3: because you know, you don't really know watching the film
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: why Aunt Martha does that. You can only surmise in
• 24:58
  Speaker 3: your own head. Well, maybe he just wanted a girl
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: because you know, there was Ricky and she wanted a difference.
• 25:04
  Speaker 3: But if you're going to somebody's head, then you or
• 25:07
  Speaker 3: you going into Angela's head Peter's head, then you would
• 25:10
  Speaker 3: know whether or not he was or was not what
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: he was thinking about his gender because you so In fact,
• 25:23
  Speaker 3: I think a movie in that sense is more interesting
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: because there's so much conversation we could have about the
• 25:28
  Speaker 3: fact that it's not decided for the viewer when you're
• 25:31
  Speaker 3: reading it. If that is the case of this, it
• 25:33
  Speaker 3: sounds very interesting. But it also sounds like you're getting
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: the facts as this person's presenting them, whereas we as
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: actors had to make our decisions and you have to
• 25:41
  Speaker 3: come up with what you think the motivation is. And
• 25:44
  Speaker 3: therefore we have multiple years of conversations because because it's
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: always deriving a different you know, the atmosphere right now.
• 25:52
  Speaker 3: Of course, we always go back to transgender and is
• 25:54
  Speaker 3: it a film about transgender? Is it is Peter you know?
• 25:57
  Speaker 3: Or is gender something that gender is something that you've
• 26:00
  Speaker 3: to decide yourself. So did he go crazy because he
• 26:03
  Speaker 3: wasn't able to decide himself? But if you're in Peter's
• 26:05
  Speaker 3: head and you can hear whether or not he's like, Wow,
• 26:08
  Speaker 3: I'm really a boy. I'm really a girl. Like whatever
• 26:11
  Speaker 3: it takes for me, it sounds like it would take
• 26:14
  Speaker 3: away a lot of the mystery of the and the
• 26:18
  Speaker 3: aura of the film.
• 26:20
  Speaker 8: But I think, well, sorry, but I think what happens
• 26:22
  Speaker 8: is that you know, there's really one person that knows
• 26:26
  Speaker 8: that you know, the backstory of the characters, the the intention,
• 26:31
  Speaker 8: everything about them is the writer, right, So Robert No,
• 26:35
  Speaker 8: same thing with Quentin Tarantino. Quentin Tarantino knows the backstory
• 26:39
  Speaker 8: of every one of his characters, the motivation of every
• 26:41
  Speaker 8: one of his characters. Never lets the actors know, but
• 26:44
  Speaker 8: he knows everything.
• 26:46
  Speaker 3: Yeah, but which is amazing.
• 26:49
  Speaker 8: The same thing probably with this. But I'm excited to read.
• 26:52
  Speaker 8: I'm not excited.
• 26:53
  Speaker 4: I know I am too.
• 26:54
  Speaker 3: But when you turn over the script to the actor,
• 26:55
  Speaker 3: if you're directing them, you will give them that guidance
• 26:58
  Speaker 3: if you want them to have it. But if you
• 27:01
  Speaker 3: Robert never said, at least to me, like you are
• 27:04
  Speaker 3: mean because of this, like I had to make my own.
• 27:08
  Speaker 4: He didn't. He didn't. He didn't have to give.
• 27:10
  Speaker 3: You no, but you know what I mean?
• 27:13
  Speaker 4: But yeah, thanks, what's interesting in the movie.
• 27:21
  Speaker 6: Br Flynn, the author of the novel is trans okay.
• 27:26
  Speaker 6: He brings this incredible perspective, especially to Peter in that
• 27:32
  Speaker 6: earlier part of the book, because it's a scene that
• 27:33
  Speaker 6: we don't see in the movie where there is this
• 27:36
  Speaker 6: sense of confusion, where there is this sense of kind
• 27:39
  Speaker 6: of like Peter sittinger and he's questioning, why is she
• 27:42
  Speaker 6: pulling out address? Why is she pulling out these things?
• 27:46
  Speaker 6: And especially once you have once you're in the head
• 27:49
  Speaker 6: of Angela and she's and older, there's these constant there's
• 27:54
  Speaker 6: this constant fear of almost being exposed, like instead of
• 27:58
  Speaker 6: instead of us going like, oh, Angela must not like
• 28:01
  Speaker 6: the water. That's why would make throws r and she
• 28:04
  Speaker 6: freaks it must not like the water. In the book,
• 28:06
  Speaker 6: there's this fear of being seen some sort of way,
• 28:11
  Speaker 6: and that's why it doesn't If I had just read
• 28:14
  Speaker 6: this book on its own, it would not be as
• 28:16
  Speaker 6: powerful as the movie is. But as a companion and
• 28:20
  Speaker 6: as an expansion of the movie, it actually makes the movie.
• 28:25
  Speaker 6: It actually builds upon it better, if that makes sense.
• 28:29
  Speaker 6: I feel like I'm kind of rampant.
• 28:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, but what a what a nice compliment to
• 28:33
  Speaker 4: the author?
• 28:34
  Speaker 8: Yeah?
• 28:35
  Speaker 4: And I know because how many.
• 28:36
  Speaker 8: Times, how many times. Is that the case very rarely, Yeah,
• 28:41
  Speaker 8: but that's usually nothing.
• 28:42
  Speaker 4: New that.
• 28:44
  Speaker 3: He said, we could go over each other and like,
• 28:46
  Speaker 3: I'm cutting you off. No, I'm not putting the book down.
• 28:49
  Speaker 3: I'm just saying any movie any but I not cosplay.
• 28:55
  Speaker 3: You know when the fan fiction, any fansiction is from
• 29:00
  Speaker 3: the writer's point of view, and that is fascinating and
• 29:02
  Speaker 3: wonderful about a transwriter is writing this because maybe in
• 29:06
  Speaker 3: reading what the trans writer has to say, we are
• 29:08
  Speaker 3: getting an insight into what it is to be transgender,
• 29:11
  Speaker 3: and that is a gift to me. I think that's
• 29:13
  Speaker 3: a gift to the world. So I raised that writer
• 29:16
  Speaker 3: for for putting themselves out there and their feelings about
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: what they probably were going through or what they know
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: their friends to be going through. Because the should I
• 29:27
  Speaker 3: tell the secret share?
• 29:28
  Speaker 4: Why I would?
• 29:28
  Speaker 6: I have a say?
• 29:29
  Speaker 3: How do I feel about this? And that may be
• 29:31
  Speaker 3: a huge gift on its own. But then again, it
• 29:35
  Speaker 3: might not have been what you know, FeliCa chose to
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: think about when she was Peter Angela. She might have
• 29:39
  Speaker 3: had a whole different thought process going on which made
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: her character, you know, fabulous.
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: The point is we have to read it.
• 29:47
  Speaker 3: The point is where do we buy this book?
• 29:49
  Speaker 8: Where Chris Chris did just just out of curiosity and
• 29:53
  Speaker 8: don't put this in the in the thing.
• 29:54
  Speaker 4: But before we.
• 29:58
  Speaker 8: Before we gave the writer the rights, had a request,
• 30:00
  Speaker 8: did he put my my love making scene with a
• 30:03
  Speaker 8: young Charlie Stron in the in the book at all?
• 30:06
  Speaker 4: Or was that in there?
• 30:09
  Speaker 6: I don't. I think I blocked that scene out.
• 30:11
  Speaker 4: You didn't put that in. I'm just sure.
• 30:14
  Speaker 8: I guess I'll read it. I guess if it's in there.
• 30:16
  Speaker 8: If it's in there, then I guess it's in there.
• 30:18
  Speaker 8: If not, it was one of the contractual sort of
• 30:37
  Speaker 8: it's my intention, I always felt, because we had many
• 30:40
  Speaker 8: opportunities to go and do it. But it was always
• 30:45
  Speaker 8: a little hard for me because I know how special
• 30:48
  Speaker 8: it was for Robert for sure, and his family. You know,
• 30:52
  Speaker 8: he really started in it. So it wasn't even though
• 30:55
  Speaker 8: maybe I could have made the decision to say, listen,
• 30:57
  Speaker 8: let's go do this, you know, at low budget way
• 31:00
  Speaker 8: with this person or that person, or even you know,
• 31:03
  Speaker 8: at a at a studio level budget and and give
• 31:05
  Speaker 8: it to Netflix or whatever, I always felt a little
• 31:08
  Speaker 8: bit bad that he wouldn't because he was just so
• 31:11
  Speaker 8: intent on wanting to direct and so intent on wanting
• 31:15
  Speaker 8: the continuation to be his story. I always felt a
• 31:18
  Speaker 8: little bit bad about that, so I'm super to be
• 31:22
  Speaker 8: honest with me, I'm super super happy that we're going
• 31:27
  Speaker 8: in direction, we're going with him ously. I'm a producer
• 31:30
  Speaker 8: on the film as well, the new version, so I'm
• 31:33
  Speaker 8: super happy that it that it worked out the way
• 31:35
  Speaker 8: it did. I think everything works out the way it's
• 31:36
  Speaker 8: supposed to, and I think he's gonna do a fabulous job.
• 31:40
  Speaker 4: And I think I think Keenan, you know, Keenan his
• 31:42
  Speaker 4: team are going to do a fantastic job.
• 31:44
  Speaker 8: And and one of the things is he's he's agreed
• 31:47
  Speaker 8: to do the good Burger thing for one of my
• 31:49
  Speaker 8: grandkids at the birthday party, so that was part of
• 31:54
  Speaker 8: that was part of the thing. I don't have it
• 31:56
  Speaker 8: in writing of one of his people told one of
• 31:59
  Speaker 8: my people, So I'm kind of hoping.
• 32:02
  Speaker 4: I'm kind of.
• 32:02
  Speaker 3: Hoping that that interesting.
• 32:07
  Speaker 4: I don't want to give into.
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: Definitely want to part because you just told us you're
• 32:12
  Speaker 3: a producer, so.
• 32:15
  Speaker 9: We know who to kiss off.
• 32:19
  Speaker 5: You're on the hook now.
• 32:22
  Speaker 3: I'm super I'm super happy for without Megan Judy, though, honestly, you.
• 32:26
  Speaker 8: Think I want, that's up to that's up to That's
• 32:29
  Speaker 8: up to people who are far smarter than me.
• 32:31
  Speaker 4: But I will weigh I will, I will be weighing in.
• 32:35
  Speaker 3: Okay, Well, you know said so much fun, We would
• 32:39
  Speaker 3: have so much fun.
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: Well, to answer your question, Karen, you just said, what
• 32:43
  Speaker 6: would you know? What would it be without Megan Judy?
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: The main character is only as strong with the is
• 32:48
  Speaker 6: only as strong as the secondary characters. I even hate
• 32:51
  Speaker 6: the term secondary characters because for for as memorable as
• 32:57
  Speaker 6: Angela is, so is Meg, so is Judy, so is Mike,
• 33:02
  Speaker 6: so is everybody else. Thank you pair it up? You
• 33:05
  Speaker 6: know what I mean? And you know for we actually tried.
• 33:09
  Speaker 6: We tried to get Felicia for this. We we reached
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: out a couple of times. We just weren't able to
• 33:15
  Speaker 6: get in contact. And it was one of those things
• 33:16
  Speaker 6: where we were like, dude, like I don't Honestly, it
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: got to a point where I was like, I was like,
• 33:22
  Speaker 6: I'm look. I was like, I'm stoked just as much
• 33:25
  Speaker 6: to have who we have.
• 33:26
  Speaker 4: I was like, should we try her now?
• 33:29
  Speaker 3: No?
• 33:31
  Speaker 7: She literally works seven days a week, twenty four seven,
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: Like if she and if she's not she's with her kids,
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: and she's just always either filming or doing a convention
• 33:40
  Speaker 7: on the weekends.
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: Here.
• 33:45
  Speaker 9: Yeah she's oh yeah.
• 33:46
  Speaker 6: There is zero like animosity towards her. Like we we
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: were just like we were like actually honestly, I was
• 33:54
  Speaker 6: kind of hoping like we could and then we could
• 33:56
  Speaker 6: have like surprised you guys when she popped up. We
• 33:59
  Speaker 6: thought that would be cool. But the main character, as
• 34:03
  Speaker 6: I said, is only as strong as the secondary characters.
• 34:05
  Speaker 6: And for me, Judy was just so not even not
• 34:12
  Speaker 6: even mean. I want to say, I don't know if
• 34:14
  Speaker 6: like despicable is the right term. Like this there's like.
• 34:22
  Speaker 5: For me.
• 34:23
  Speaker 6: For me though, as a kid, I think we all
• 34:26
  Speaker 6: had a Judy that, like you know what I mean,
• 34:29
  Speaker 6: we all want everybody everybody knew one. So there's that,
• 34:34
  Speaker 6: there's that, you know, there's like that almost like that
• 34:37
  Speaker 6: memory of who was like that when we were kids.
• 34:40
  Speaker 6: But also in my neighborhood, we had a Meg who
• 34:43
  Speaker 6: was like the somebody's one of our friend groups like
• 34:46
  Speaker 6: older sister, careful, Chris, listen, listen, only only get myself
• 34:54
  Speaker 6: in trouble here we we in my little neighborhood, we
• 35:01
  Speaker 6: had one it was it was somebody one of our
• 35:02
  Speaker 6: friends older sister who always was like the party pooper,
• 35:06
  Speaker 6: you know what I mean. It was we always got
• 35:07
  Speaker 6: in trouble, like it was just what it was. So
• 35:10
  Speaker 6: beside characters, I always felt more attachment with anyways, if
• 35:16
  Speaker 6: that means they're relatable.
• 35:17
  Speaker 5: I think a lot of the like you can attach.
• 35:20
  Speaker 5: You know, everyone knows like someone in your life that
• 35:23
  Speaker 5: maybe is similar to like one of the characters personalities.
• 35:26
  Speaker 5: And one thing I was gonna bring up with you guys, like,
• 35:29
  Speaker 5: you know, as far as like with your characters, how
• 35:31
  Speaker 5: did the cast dynamic evolve off camera? Like did you
• 35:34
  Speaker 5: guys have chemistry you know off camera that translated into
• 35:38
  Speaker 5: the film's tone, like when you guys were were rolling.
• 35:42
  Speaker 3: I just think we all were very comfortable with each
• 35:44
  Speaker 3: other off round, so it just flowed.
• 35:47
  Speaker 8: Yeah, that's true, because we hung out. I mean even
• 35:49
  Speaker 8: when we weren't feeling we hung out on set, you.
• 35:53
  Speaker 7: Know, yeah, absolutely, And I think we were kind of
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: the older group, Tom Karen and.
• 36:01
  Speaker 4: Rick.
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: Yes, Rick and we kind of hung out because we
• 36:04
  Speaker 7: were sort of eighteen and over close to that. And
• 36:06
  Speaker 7: then you know, Felissa and Jonathan played Ricky were all,
• 36:10
  Speaker 7: you know, Chris, they were all like thirteen fourteen years old,
• 36:13
  Speaker 7: so they kind of hung out on their own, and
• 36:16
  Speaker 7: we didn't you know, we didn't want to be bad
• 36:18
  Speaker 7: influences on them.
• 36:19
  Speaker 4: So, but I mean, you know, in the hotel as well, Chris.
• 36:23
  Speaker 8: I mean it was basically, you know, like an old
• 36:25
  Speaker 8: school motel that had the drive going through two buildings
• 36:31
  Speaker 8: on each side. Yeah, and I think the older kids
• 36:33
  Speaker 8: we were on one side with the crew, I think, yeah,
• 36:36
  Speaker 8: and then the younger kids were on the other side. Yeah,
• 36:38
  Speaker 8: you know, so you'd sort of congregate even at the hotel.
• 36:41
  Speaker 4: All the time. Yeah. And we we were we were
• 36:44
  Speaker 4: together all the time. Yeah. I mean Kathy was leaving,
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: you know, because we'd see the limo pol up.
• 36:49
  Speaker 8: She was leaving quite a bit to do her you know,
• 36:53
  Speaker 8: her stuff and to go eat eat lobster at like
• 36:59
  Speaker 8: Le Cirque or something, you know, while we were while
• 37:01
  Speaker 8: we were having three day old.
• 37:05
  Speaker 4: Really at the camp everybody flies. Yeah, she had she
• 37:12
  Speaker 4: had on this film.
• 37:14
  Speaker 7: The only way ABC I was on, the only way
• 37:16
  Speaker 7: they would let me do the film was if they
• 37:18
  Speaker 7: said they would drive me there like and then bring
• 37:21
  Speaker 7: me back to film the soap. So I mean I
• 37:24
  Speaker 7: stayed there, but when I had to come back, they
• 37:26
  Speaker 7: would send a car for me to come back and
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: flo are the days those are?
• 37:32
  Speaker 8: I think I think it was I can't remember how
• 37:35
  Speaker 8: long it was, but it was like one, two six
• 37:38
  Speaker 8: hotel rooms.
• 37:40
  Speaker 4: Like yeah, I wish.
• 37:44
  Speaker 5: No, I know we were talking about this earlier, kind
• 37:47
  Speaker 5: of comeing full circle. But as far as like, did
• 37:50
  Speaker 5: you guys have any creative input into how your characters
• 37:53
  Speaker 5: were like portrayed or was it very much scripted and
• 37:57
  Speaker 5: directed like a specific like way for each character?
• 38:01
  Speaker 4: Good question.
• 38:02
  Speaker 3: Think that Robert gave me free range to do the
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: lines the way I wanted to do the lines, but
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: those were his lines. I didn't impro any words. He
• 38:12
  Speaker 3: wrote all those beautiful words for me.
• 38:14
  Speaker 8: But yeah, I think we kind of there was some
• 38:17
  Speaker 8: ad libbing, you know, when you had scenes like the
• 38:20
  Speaker 8: water balloon scene and things like that, there was some
• 38:23
  Speaker 8: ad libbing and he didn't put which I kind of
• 38:28
  Speaker 8: like when I redescript, even as a producer, I hate
• 38:30
  Speaker 8: when there's just, you know, the page after page of
• 38:34
  Speaker 8: sort of descriptions and exposition.
• 38:37
  Speaker 4: He didn't put a lot of that in, So I
• 38:38
  Speaker 4: think that created an atmosphere too.
• 38:40
  Speaker 8: Where as far as your actions within a scene, it
• 38:45
  Speaker 8: was free reign, you know what I mean. It didn't
• 38:48
  Speaker 8: say or just the Meg did this prior to her
• 38:52
  Speaker 8: line or any of that. I mean, there was very
• 38:54
  Speaker 8: little of that, which I think kind of made it spontaneous.
• 38:58
  Speaker 8: Like the fight scenes and all those things, they were
• 39:00
  Speaker 8: just natural, you know.
• 39:03
  Speaker 4: In the way they were they were shot. It was
• 39:05
  Speaker 4: pretty cool.
• 39:06
  Speaker 7: And he and and I'm the kind of actor I
• 39:11
  Speaker 7: was or am coming out of being a childhood actor
• 39:13
  Speaker 7: and kind of starting to go into adult stuff. I
• 39:15
  Speaker 7: always listened to the director, and so Robert was very
• 39:18
  Speaker 7: specific about really sort of over the top with Meg
• 39:22
  Speaker 7: and really mean and really loud, and and so I
• 39:25
  Speaker 7: just you know, he would let me do that. I
• 39:28
  Speaker 7: would do that, and then he'd kind of say, you know, okay,
• 39:30
  Speaker 7: do what you want now. And if I didn't quite
• 39:33
  Speaker 7: hit what he wanted, then he'd say, no, give me
• 39:34
  Speaker 7: a little more, give me a little more.
• 39:37
  Speaker 4: You know. What's a good point as well.
• 39:39
  Speaker 8: I just thought of it because when we're going through
• 39:40
  Speaker 8: the casting process, you know, and I think that was
• 39:44
  Speaker 8: probably the key why we got to have free reign
• 39:48
  Speaker 8: on set, because when we went through the casting front.
• 39:50
  Speaker 4: He did give you a lot of He did give
• 39:53
  Speaker 4: you a lot of notes.
• 39:55
  Speaker 8: Oh what the you know, in motivation behind your character
• 39:58
  Speaker 8: was in the certain So I think he already got
• 40:01
  Speaker 8: what he wanted to see before he cast us. Absolutely agree,
• 40:05
  Speaker 8: and then by the time we showed up on Seid,
• 40:06
  Speaker 8: he said, well, just do what you did.
• 40:08
  Speaker 4: Do what you did?
• 40:09
  Speaker 9: Yeah with a script.
• 40:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah.
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: And then obviously we know Sleepway Camp it has some
• 40:15
  Speaker 5: memorably grewsome kills. Like what was it like either seeing
• 40:18
  Speaker 5: those scenes being filmed or like taking place during them, Like,
• 40:23
  Speaker 5: what was the experience like for you guys?
• 40:26
  Speaker 9: Well, I was super It was grazy. I was super sick.
• 40:29
  Speaker 7: I had the flu at the time, and my mom
• 40:31
  Speaker 7: came up because they had like, I mean hours and
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: hours of makeup for my back and I was just
• 40:37
  Speaker 7: lying on a dirty mattress in the middle of the
• 40:39
  Speaker 7: night while they were doing it.
• 40:40
  Speaker 9: And I mean it was incredible, but uh, it was.
• 40:44
  Speaker 9: It took It took a lot of time.
• 40:46
  Speaker 4: It took a lot of time.
• 40:47
  Speaker 6: It's such a nasty kill, Like, yeah, so nasty, and
• 40:53
  Speaker 6: it keeps going and going like, yeah it act.
• 40:56
  Speaker 3: It was good. You did such a good job because
• 40:58
  Speaker 3: you had to.
• 40:59
  Speaker 7: He was yelling at he was yelling out as it
• 41:01
  Speaker 7: was going in, and you know, the water wasn't exactly warm.
• 41:04
  Speaker 7: You know, he's yelling out, the knife's going down. Now
• 41:07
  Speaker 7: turn your head to the left, turn your head to
• 41:08
  Speaker 7: the right.
• 41:08
  Speaker 9: It was very choreographed. So I just listened to what
• 41:10
  Speaker 9: the director told Robert told me, you know.
• 41:12
  Speaker 8: But it was great because if you think about it,
• 41:14
  Speaker 8: that could have just been an inn, could have just
• 41:17
  Speaker 8: been a couple.
• 41:18
  Speaker 4: Yeah, it stopped and then yeah, Super talked me through it. Yeah,
• 41:26
  Speaker 4: he talking super gruesome.
• 41:31
  Speaker 6: Judy's death scene is very expanded. Wow, like very expanded on.
• 41:37
  Speaker 8: So is it curling irons that's why or is it
• 41:43
  Speaker 8: one of those dice things that has.
• 41:45
  Speaker 3: The see that's also like.
• 41:49
  Speaker 4: The movie, I'm dying to read this thing.
• 41:52
  Speaker 3: You never saw you never even saw her. So she's alive.
• 41:56
  Speaker 3: So the mystery of she.
• 41:59
  Speaker 9: Made missed a few parts.
• 42:02
  Speaker 3: My theory still. Yeah, she's just on the that she
• 42:05
  Speaker 3: gets up. She's a superwoman.
• 42:08
  Speaker 4: Protection totally.
• 42:11
  Speaker 8: Don't put the don't they put them all in Arizona
• 42:17
  Speaker 8: like conspiracy theory.
• 42:18
  Speaker 4: There we go.
• 42:20
  Speaker 6: Well, I read when I read The Blue Heaven, when
• 42:24
  Speaker 6: I read the book and I went back and watched
• 42:25
  Speaker 6: the movie. Suddenly the the really nasty sound design of
• 42:30
  Speaker 6: like burning hair that through the mix of the movie
• 42:35
  Speaker 6: started making like I was like, oh, this is so
• 42:38
  Speaker 6: much worse that that's really.
• 42:41
  Speaker 4: The hand look.
• 42:45
  Speaker 6: Shadows are still the most I think the coolest visual
• 42:51
  Speaker 6: Pine film. Like I think of, well, I think of
• 42:54
  Speaker 6: Judy's death. Well, let's say Judy's attack scene, let's say
• 42:59
  Speaker 6: thank you, And then I think about, like, you know,
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: Raiders are the Lost ar Steven Spoorburg's use of shadow. Yeah,
• 43:05
  Speaker 6: you know, Dracula, it's the coolest thing to do. It's
• 43:08
  Speaker 6: the simplest. It's like what shine of light and in
• 43:12
  Speaker 6: the front of the light.
• 43:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's super effective.
• 43:15
  Speaker 8: Like I mean, that was the thing that I took away,
• 43:18
  Speaker 8: you know, years later, just the value of good practical effects, right, yeah,
• 43:24
  Speaker 8: I mean amazing when you see the stuff like tubes
• 43:28
  Speaker 8: on the on the burnt face, and it was spectacular.
• 43:32
  Speaker 8: The doubling of Johnny's head with the snake and Larisa's
• 43:38
  Speaker 8: b head, which Robert tried to get me the he
• 43:41
  Speaker 8: wanted to save money. He wanted me to double for
• 43:44
  Speaker 8: Laris da Ron for that scene. I was like, you're
• 43:46
  Speaker 8: out of your mind. I think he was gonna give
• 43:48
  Speaker 8: me like fifty bucks O dollars. He's like, these people
• 43:52
  Speaker 8: are professional. The bees don't sting. I'm like, cover my
• 43:56
  Speaker 8: head in bees for fifty bucks.
• 43:59
  Speaker 6: I'm good.
• 44:01
  Speaker 4: I would have done it.
• 44:03
  Speaker 6: Mel's death scene is still I think, as far as
• 44:06
  Speaker 6: an effect goes, the most impressive, because when when I
• 44:10
  Speaker 6: read Jeff Hay's book, which very comprehensively and in depth
• 44:14
  Speaker 6: explains the contraption they used to get the arrow the
• 44:18
  Speaker 6: illusion that the arrow goes through his throat, I still
• 44:20
  Speaker 6: don't understand how it worked. And when it happens in
• 44:24
  Speaker 6: one shot in the movie, it's incredible. And it's still
• 44:28
  Speaker 6: kind of like I feel like I ruined movies for
• 44:30
  Speaker 6: myself by learning too much about them. So then when
• 44:33
  Speaker 6: I watch them again, I'm like, I saw the rabbit
• 44:36
  Speaker 6: in the hat. I can't behind the rabbit in the hat.
• 44:39
  Speaker 6: With Mel's death, that's great.
• 44:41
  Speaker 8: That's great sound design too, write if you think about it,
• 44:45
  Speaker 8: I mean you mentioned something.
• 44:46
  Speaker 4: Great, Chris, because when you when you look at the art.
• 44:48
  Speaker 8: Of filmmaking right and you look at sound design, and
• 44:51
  Speaker 8: you look at the use of shadows and lighting, like
• 44:55
  Speaker 8: on the world war Z. I thought were spectacular in
• 44:58
  Speaker 8: that regard because a lot of of the a lot
• 45:01
  Speaker 8: of the scares came out of these sounds of the
• 45:04
  Speaker 8: zombies and then quick flashes and you never really see them.
• 45:07
  Speaker 8: But it was so effective with the shadow use the
• 45:10
  Speaker 8: shadows and sound design, and that's I think they did
• 45:13
  Speaker 8: a really Robert did a really good job with that
• 45:15
  Speaker 8: on the film.
• 45:16
  Speaker 9: Yeah.
• 45:16
  Speaker 8: I think that was the impact of the I mean sorry,
• 45:21
  Speaker 8: the impact of the of the arrow as well with
• 45:24
  Speaker 8: the sound design that made it. You know, you're listening more.
• 45:27
  Speaker 8: You're probably listening more than you're watching at that right.
• 45:30
  Speaker 6: Yeah. And it's also I think, honestly my favorite part
• 45:34
  Speaker 6: of sleep Boy Camp is and I'm still trying to
• 45:36

• 47:09
  Speaker 8: kind of weird.
• 47:10
  Speaker 6: Yeah, we talked about on I can't remember if it
• 47:12
  Speaker 6: was another interview Steve or not, but we talked about
• 47:15
  Speaker 6: how it's funny about horror movies is we can watch people,
• 47:18
  Speaker 6: you know, get eviscerated and limbs cut off, right, and
• 47:22
  Speaker 6: it's like we're like, oh, how cool, and then somebody
• 47:24
  Speaker 6: gets like a little cut on their hands and we're like,
• 47:27
  Speaker 6: oh god.
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: That's funny.
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: I'm not a good horror person. I am.
• 47:33
  Speaker 8: I cannot. I am scared to death watching horror movies.
• 47:39
  Speaker 8: It's the worst thing.
• 47:40
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't.
• 47:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah, I remember like The Strangers, I was like, I
• 47:46
  Speaker 8: thought I was gonna die. I'm not good at it.
• 47:49
  Speaker 8: I'm the guy that's like this, I look away all
• 47:54
  Speaker 8: the time. I'm not I'm I'm horrible and I know
• 47:57
  Speaker 8: what's going on. I'm like, obviously, I know.
• 47:59
  Speaker 4: It's some move Yeah, but it's still which I guess
• 48:02
  Speaker 4: speaks to.
• 48:03
  Speaker 8: The you know the art, and you know, because it does,
• 48:07
  Speaker 8: it definitely works on me.
• 48:08
  Speaker 4: Man, I get shitless.
• 48:12
  Speaker 6: What Yeah, you can't, Catherine, for you? What's the movie
• 48:16
  Speaker 6: for you? What's like the one horror movie that just
• 48:19
  Speaker 6: gets you every single time? That is you're so scared
• 48:21
  Speaker 6: of them.
• 48:23
  Speaker 7: I can't remember the name, but it was probably something
• 48:26
  Speaker 7: in the late seventies that I was dragged to by
• 48:29
  Speaker 7: my brothers on the Upper West Side of New York.
• 48:32
  Speaker 9: I can't remember the name.
• 48:34
  Speaker 7: My friend we recently figured out which one it was
• 48:36
  Speaker 7: when I was describing it had dragons that came and.
• 48:39
  Speaker 9: Picked people up and rip them.
• 48:41
  Speaker 7: It was just it was horrible of these creatures. And
• 48:44
  Speaker 7: I remember leaving screaming and running from it. But but
• 48:47
  Speaker 7: anything with with I think the extracist really got me
• 48:51
  Speaker 7: that after that anything was supernatural stuff like that, I
• 48:54
  Speaker 7: don't mess with that, I don't want to mess with.
• 48:57
  Speaker 7: It makes me too nervous, And that that did it
• 48:59
  Speaker 7: for me. That movie be I can't even see a
• 49:01
  Speaker 7: poster of it.
• 49:02
  Speaker 9: He scares me.
• 49:04
  Speaker 4: American Werewolf, American Werewolf in London.
• 49:07
  Speaker 8: Yeah, like when they would close the medicine cabinet and
• 49:12
  Speaker 8: there he is with the fish.
• 49:14
  Speaker 7: But it's the supernatural stuff that scares me because you
• 49:17
  Speaker 7: don't know where it's going to come from and where
• 49:19
  Speaker 7: do you go.
• 49:19
  Speaker 9: You can't do anything about.
• 49:20
  Speaker 5: It, especially when you're home alone, like forget one of
• 49:23
  Speaker 5: those things like you walk out of the theater and
• 49:25
  Speaker 5: then it's maybe it doesn't bother you when you're watching
• 49:27
  Speaker 5: the movies so much. When you go home it's quiet,
• 49:30
  Speaker 5: you know, getting ready to settle in for the night.
• 49:33
  Speaker 5: That's when I don't know that type of stuff can
• 49:34
  Speaker 5: you know, kind of be a little jarring.
• 49:36
  Speaker 7: Yeah, And back back in the day, I mean, if
• 49:39
  Speaker 7: I wanted to see a movie, it was the one
• 49:41
  Speaker 7: my two brothers were going to.
• 49:42
  Speaker 9: Or my family.
• 49:43
  Speaker 7: You had to go, you know, and everybody got to choose,
• 49:45
  Speaker 7: so otherwise you didn't get to go.
• 49:46
  Speaker 9: So I went to a lot of things I didn't like.
• 49:50
  Speaker 4: What about you.
• 49:52
  Speaker 3: Me, I'm yet No, I didn't grow up watching her.
• 49:57
  Speaker 3: I remember, like, do you guys remember the Romper Room
• 50:00
  Speaker 3: When you were like little? I used to this little
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: music would freak me out. I'd like run up to
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: my bedroom told the music was done, and they come
• 50:07
  Speaker 3: down and watch. I've always been afraid. I was more
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: like a theater Broadway kid. I'm obsessed with Broadway and
• 50:13
  Speaker 3: I lived in New York. My mom would take me
• 50:15
  Speaker 3: to see everything. And it's more that you know, yeah
• 50:19
  Speaker 3: that direction, yeah, yeah, But I really appreciate horror, and
• 50:23
  Speaker 3: now that we you know, we were meeting so many people,
• 50:25
  Speaker 3: I so appreciate the makeup and stuff. I try to
• 50:28
  Speaker 3: watch them. I'm not like up at all, but so
• 50:31
  Speaker 3: many people are just so like you do both you
• 50:33
  Speaker 3: know these films inside and out, and I think that's
• 50:36
  Speaker 3: the love for it is like makes me so like
• 50:40
  Speaker 3: interested and intrigued, and so I actually I am very
• 50:43
  Speaker 3: intrigued by horror and wanting to catch up and wanting
• 50:46
  Speaker 3: to watch these things just because you know, and all
• 50:48
  Speaker 3: the also back to like you know, gender and all that,
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: like the things that weren't allowed with the Hayes Act earlier,
• 50:55
  Speaker 3: and the secrecy of things and how that progressed through
• 50:58
  Speaker 3: the years. And I find that fascinating. And there are
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: things that I don't get that somebody who is you know,
• 51:04
  Speaker 3: in the queer community would get. And so for me,
• 51:06
  Speaker 3: I'm very into I'm just trying to understand, like things
• 51:09
  Speaker 3: would just go past me and I would know, oh
• 51:11
  Speaker 3: that's a queer film. I no idea, you know. So
• 51:13
  Speaker 3: I find that fascinating that I find fascinating also about
• 51:16
  Speaker 3: the Harrm Moony, the horror, the horror people intertwined with
• 51:20
  Speaker 3: the drag community, intertwined with the queer community. It's just
• 51:23
  Speaker 3: I love that. So for me finding it now, I'm
• 51:26
  Speaker 3: not too late in it because I just find that
• 51:28
  Speaker 3: all so interesting.
• 51:30
  Speaker 5: You know, christ and I were talking about this Nightmare
• 51:33
  Speaker 5: and elm Street too, Freddy's Revenge. I mean, that's that's
• 51:36
  Speaker 5: another great example of you know, kind of there's that
• 51:39
  Speaker 5: subtext that's there. I mean, but for either of us
• 51:42
  Speaker 5: it's like growing up, it's like, you know, you kind
• 51:45
  Speaker 5: of take it at face value, like, hey, this is
• 51:46
  Speaker 5: just a slasher or like some sleepway camp. Here you
• 51:49
  Speaker 5: are all these years later, and it's like you can
• 51:51
  Speaker 5: reassess it, and it's like there's some really really impactful
• 51:54
  Speaker 5: messages that they have about like you know, gender identity,
• 51:57
  Speaker 5: you know, like.
• 51:58
  Speaker 3: Right like Chucky Glenn. Which is so interesting also because
• 52:01
  Speaker 3: you know, you get people in the theater and they're
• 52:04
  Speaker 3: thinking they're going to go see some fun scare thing,
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: and then there's just you know, these little messages that
• 52:08
  Speaker 3: go by of acceptance or you know, you see it
• 52:10
  Speaker 3: enough and it just becomes part of your acceptance.
• 52:14
  Speaker 4: You know.
• 52:14
  Speaker 3: That's so it is so interesting what you can put
• 52:16
  Speaker 3: in a horror movie and people don't you know, So yeah,
• 52:18
  Speaker 3: I totally the undertones, the under.
• 52:21
  Speaker 6: You know, horror is as ironic as it sounds to
• 52:24
  Speaker 6: people who aren't embedded in the genre. There's safety and
• 52:27
  Speaker 6: horror because for me, being a kid, I never felt
• 52:33
  Speaker 6: like in with any any group, any person, and I
• 52:37
  Speaker 6: found some weird connection with movies which has paved, you know,
• 52:42
  Speaker 6: the path to you know, this moment in every moment
• 52:45
  Speaker 6: that that Steve and I have been able to share
• 52:47
  Speaker 6: of it the last year with this genre, and it's
• 52:51
  Speaker 6: ironic because people give a side eye to horror, much
• 52:57
  Speaker 6: like they give a side eye to many things that
• 53:00
  Speaker 6: uh that are are going on today, you know. So
• 53:02
  Speaker 6: horror has always been a place where it's almost like
• 53:06
  Speaker 6: people on the outside can can feel inside, can feel
• 53:11
  Speaker 6: with other people, and we can relate to it. And
• 53:15
  Speaker 6: the fact that horror could tap into gender identities long
• 53:21
  Speaker 6: before a drama could or other more accepting genres of film,
• 53:26
  Speaker 6: I think is a statement to the genre as a whole.
• 53:30
  Speaker 6: But now I can't tell you how incredibly accepting this
• 53:35
  Speaker 6: community is to everybody.
• 53:40
  Speaker 5: Incredible.
• 53:41
  Speaker 8: We see it, Chris, we see the conventions because the
• 53:44
  Speaker 8: people are so different, right, the walks of life are
• 53:48
  Speaker 8: so different for all these people. You have artists and
• 53:51
  Speaker 8: as Catherine said before, you have doctors. You have people
• 53:54
  Speaker 8: from all walks of life, from all places in the
• 53:57
  Speaker 8: economic you know, stations. But the common thread is exactly
• 54:01
  Speaker 8: that in the horror community.
• 54:04
  Speaker 4: It's kindness, yeah, and acceptance.
• 54:08
  Speaker 8: They are the kindest, most accepting people that I have met.
• 54:13
  Speaker 4: Yeah, throughout my journey of life.
• 54:14
  Speaker 9: I mean, everybody, everybody belongs.
• 54:17
  Speaker 7: It's someplace everybody belongs, and you feel that, and I
• 54:20
  Speaker 7: feel that when I'm there and I want to be there.
• 54:21
  Speaker 3: Then, you know, I think people get themselves their makeup
• 54:26
  Speaker 3: and they go out and it's just brave. But it
• 54:28
  Speaker 3: shouldn't be brave, but they are. And it's just so
• 54:31
  Speaker 3: there's just there is such a comfort and I get that.
• 54:33
  Speaker 3: I've had people tell me, I'm sure you guys have too,
• 54:36
  Speaker 3: that they watched Sleepy Campus their comfort movie, which I
• 54:38
  Speaker 3: every week understood, but like, wow, that's such a compliment,
• 54:42
  Speaker 3: and it's just wow, you know, so it makes sense.
• 54:46
  Speaker 3: You're an outsider and you find this and you and
• 54:49
  Speaker 3: then you realize that there are other outsiders who feel
• 54:51
  Speaker 3: the same way and they love this and you build
• 54:53
  Speaker 3: a community and it's beautiful. I just love it. I'm
• 54:55
  Speaker 3: so happy to be part of like after all this
• 54:57
  Speaker 3: year to like years and years to just find this communit.
• 55:00
  Speaker 3: If I never work again, which I would love to,
• 55:02
  Speaker 3: but it's just so wonderful that we have this community
• 55:04
  Speaker 3: that I never would have thought. These people are just wonderful.
• 55:07
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree. I agree. That's the best part. You know,
• 55:11
  Speaker 4: That's the thing I take away from it all.
• 55:13
  Speaker 8: I mean, just a sense of gratitude for just you know,
• 55:16
  Speaker 8: I hate using that word because I don't think I'm worthy.
• 55:18
  Speaker 8: You know what I mean, they are, and you know,
• 55:21
  Speaker 8: some of the other guys obviously FORELSSA. But you know,
• 55:23
  Speaker 8: I hate using the word fans, but when I see
• 55:26
  Speaker 8: the fans of the film, I'm just soul filled with gratitude.
• 55:29
  Speaker 8: I'm like, oh my god, you're such nice people and
• 55:33
  Speaker 8: you like us and like this movie after all these
• 55:36
  Speaker 8: years and you and it's generational people pass it on.
• 55:40
  Speaker 4: It's like a little seeing.
• 55:42
  Speaker 8: Grandma's with their kids and their kids kids, and I'm like,
• 55:47
  Speaker 8: are you kidding me?
• 55:48
  Speaker 4: This is like so cool, you know.
• 55:51
  Speaker 3: You know, Kathy and I were in the bathroom cat
• 55:53
  Speaker 3: remember this. We were in the bathroom in Florida and
• 55:56
  Speaker 3: this girl girl turned around like we just happened to
• 55:59
  Speaker 3: be there, and man did she freak out. And we
• 56:01
  Speaker 3: were so like honored, and she was so freaked out
• 56:05
  Speaker 3: that we were just dading going to bathroom because we
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: go to bathroom, and we were like, okay, let's take
• 56:10
  Speaker 3: a selfie, and she was like she was she was shaking,
• 56:13
  Speaker 3: she was shaking and cry and she just didn't believe it.
• 56:16
  Speaker 3: And we were like, over honest, beautiful. We were so
• 56:22
  Speaker 3: like we remember it clearly because we were just so honored.
• 56:24
  Speaker 3: It was just such an honor to like have that.
• 56:26
  Speaker 4: We have the best fans. I'll say it, we have.
• 56:30
  Speaker 8: I'll put our fans up against any other absolute and
• 56:34

  Speaker 6: Yeah, well it was. I know, we were talking. I
• 56:54
  Speaker 6: was talking to we have a group chat with a
• 56:56
  Speaker 6: bunch of other of our friends on Instagram, and a
• 56:59
  Speaker 6: little early I was like I was telling them, like

• 57:22
  Speaker 6: there's always a little bit of nerve when we do
• 57:24
  Speaker 6: meet somebody because we hope that they are the people
• 57:27
  Speaker 6: we think they're going to be and for me, Like
• 57:31
  Speaker 6: when I went to a couple of Monster Manias ago
• 57:33
  Speaker 6: I love. Reanimator is one of my favorite movies of
• 57:36
  Speaker 6: all time, and I was kind of perusing the autograph
• 57:40
  Speaker 6: area and I went up to Jeffrey Combe's table and
• 57:44
  Speaker 6: he was next to Barbara Crampton, and I went up
• 57:47
  Speaker 6: to the table. I realized it was cash only. I
• 57:49
  Speaker 6: had used all my cash. I wasn't gonna spend, you know,
• 57:51
  Speaker 6: seven dollars on an ATM fee. So me and my
• 57:55
  Speaker 6: friends just started talking. Next thing I know, I turn
• 57:57
  Speaker 6: around and both of them are standing next to us,
• 58:00
  Speaker 6: and we're just talking like there was no no transaction
• 58:05
  Speaker 6: there was. We're just hanging out talking. And then people
• 58:07
  Speaker 6: kind of started getting their table and they're like, all right,
• 58:09
  Speaker 6: nice to meet you guys, and walked away, and I
• 58:10
  Speaker 6: was like, what the hell? Just like yeah, and we

  Speaker 7: and and I guess she and I were the only
• 59:52
  Speaker 7: ones who slept the whole way on the plane, so
• 59:54
  Speaker 7: everybody crashed when they got there and it was daytime
• 59:57
  Speaker 7: and we were like, We're in the lobby and I'm like, Hi,
• 59:58
  Speaker 7: I'm Catherine.
• 59:59
  Speaker 9: She goes, Hi, I'm Laura. I was like, should we
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 9: go side seeing? Shoot, yeah, let's go.
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 7: We spent the whole day together, had the best time.
• 1:00:05
  Speaker 7: I just love her.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 6: Yeah, she has such infectious energy.
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, that.
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 6: The episode with her, she was like, hey, I got
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 6: a good you know, forty five minutes we were like awesome.
• 1:00:18
  Speaker 6: And right from the get go, it felt so comfortable
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 6: because she was just so it was almost like she
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 6: was happier to be talking to us than we were
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 6: talking back. It was great. Yeah, it was incredible.
• 1:00:33
  Speaker 4: What are you doing?
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 9: I'm just me six weeks ago.
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 7: So I get an uncomfortable position, I just gotta stretch.
• 1:00:40
  Speaker 4: You're still you're still feeling that?
• 1:00:42
  Speaker 7: Well, not really, but a little bit. When I sit
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 7: for too long, I just feel like I got to
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 7: change positions, you know.
• 1:00:47
  Speaker 5: Oh god, well, listen, I wanted to ask are there
• 1:00:53
  Speaker 5: were there any scenes when you guys were filming that
• 1:00:55
  Speaker 5: were difficult to shoot, whether it was like emotionally, physically,
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 5: or maybe just because of the can at the time
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 5: you guys were filming.
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 7: I mean, for me, it was having to throw Felissa
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 7: in the lake and I had to pick her up
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 7: and she was like though she was so tiny, But
• 1:01:10
  Speaker 7: that was difficult because I was so scared she was
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 7: going to hit her head on the dock. So all
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 7: I cared about was like, and she had a struggle,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 7: was just throwing her far and she would.
• 1:01:18
  Speaker 9: Hit her head. I was just terrified she get hurt.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 9: So that was hard.
• 1:01:22
  Speaker 6: Was it hard to be mean to her?
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 3: Like?
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 6: Was it hard to change?
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 9: She was just a little thirteen year old girl.
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 4: It was hard, those little doe eyes that.
• 1:01:31
  Speaker 9: Yeah, but she was such a pro and I think
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 9: it was she Yes, she was great. I was like,
• 1:01:37
  Speaker 9: I'm really gonna yell at you.
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 4: She goes yep to it.
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: You know, she was incredible for one second. It was
• 1:01:43
  Speaker 3: yeah for me. The slap scene was fine for me,
• 1:01:46
  Speaker 3: but Susie the actress didn't want to slap me, and
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 3: Robert kept saying slapp her, just slapper and I kept saying,
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 3: just slap me, just slap me, and she finally it
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 3: was so hard for her to do that, and because
• 1:01:55
  Speaker 3: she was so sweet. I think her name was Susie,
• 1:01:58
  Speaker 3: but in the character's name was Susie too, and she
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 3: foind last me. And so we only really did it
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 3: like that scene once because she didn't want to slap me,
• 1:02:04
  Speaker 3: and then she didn't want to slap me again. But
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 3: so that was the And I know it was quiet
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 3: on the set because Robert was like, I know this
• 1:02:11
  Speaker 3: is you know, we're going to keep it, you know,
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 3: and it's late. I feel like it was not at nighttime.
• 1:02:15
  Speaker 3: So but yeah, that's my memory of that of that scene.
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 8: I think the fight scene was because the way I mean,
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 8: Robert had all the extras, the local extra like the
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 8: farm boys from up there in the fight scene, and
• 1:02:28
  Speaker 8: he basically told them like like it hit them, hit us.
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 8: So we were in there, We're in there like mixing
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 8: it up, and it was like a rugby strum.
• 1:02:39
  Speaker 4: They were like punching like the back of the head.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 4: Oh my gosh, that was pretty. It was like a
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 4: real that was like actually like a real fight.
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 6: The fight scene's crazy because all of a sudden, it
• 1:02:50
  Speaker 6: goes from two people to like seven, all of a sudden,
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 6: the guys just get piled on.
• 1:02:55
  Speaker 8: Yeah, and I mean and they were like wailing away,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 8: and I was like, what the you know?
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 4: And Roberts like digging it. Of course, you know, he's
• 1:03:04
  Speaker 4: like you he was.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 8: He was like, just you guys make it look real
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 8: about And I'm like, aren't you supposed to somehow choreograph this.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 4: Like somehow.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 3: Intimacy whatever?
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 4: Yeah, you're not supposed to hit people.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 5: Well, it's going to ask what was it like working
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 5: with Robert, Like did he communicate the vision that he
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 5: had for the tone or like the pacing of the film.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 3: He wasn't much older, so it was kind of he
• 1:03:34
  Speaker 3: was very comfortable, very very right away at the audition.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 3: I remember when I left the audition, I went downstairs.
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 3: We were n y U and I didn't know Missy
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 3: was there and that was his fiance and I didn't know.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 3: She goes, how did you do? I said, I think
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 3: I did great. He's so easy to work with. Those
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 3: are my line and so I mean, he just by
• 1:03:53
  Speaker 3: the way, he's just somebody that was just like I
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 3: knew him already. So for me, I found it very easy.
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I agreed.
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 8: I think for me it's odd, Yeah, because it's you know,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 8: I got along with him in the got along with
• 1:04:04
  Speaker 8: him in the casting, and talked about lacrosse.
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 4: I was playing lacrosse at the time.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 8: And then I mean, how fast forward this many years
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 8: and and you know, kind of a little a little
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 8: bit love hate relationship at times, but we're like really
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 8: like brothers, you know, at the end of at the
• 1:04:22
  Speaker 8: end of the day, we always see eye to eye,
• 1:04:24
  Speaker 8: and we talk a lot and and yeah, and and
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 8: and we're obviously close friends. So it's it's kind of cool.
• 1:04:31
  Speaker 8: And he was like that, he was like that when
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 8: he was young. He's just an easy going.
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 9: Easy, very easy going.
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: I'm so happy for him that this this like magical
• 1:04:44
  Speaker 3: thing has happened so many years later and that he's
• 1:04:45
  Speaker 3: actually doing himself. I'm actually that is so cool. And
• 1:04:50
  Speaker 3: I'm sure I hope his daughters will think it's cool
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 3: and that he's cool.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 4: And yeah, of course, how can you not, right, I mean,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 4: you know, he.
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 3: Was a lawyer, so you know that's dad, but this
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 3: is like, wow, this.
• 1:05:01
  Speaker 4: Is this is super cool.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 8: I'm in the end, you know, every always It sounds cliche,
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 8: you know, God puts you where you're supposed to be,
• 1:05:07
  Speaker 8: But I think that's what happened with this project. We
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 8: look at all the opportunities and you know, and and
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 8: never took any of them, you know, and and always
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 8: waited for something that just felt right. And uh, and
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 8: I'm happy that, you know, and hopefully I'm still alive.
• 1:05:23
  Speaker 7: But it comes out the heart of it.
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 4: You know, I'm excited for that. I'm excited for him.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's.
• 1:05:31
  Speaker 3: Lovely, you know, I mean anything about anything. But I
• 1:05:35
  Speaker 3: was thinking, well, they should do it on a forty
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 3: fifth year. They should have it out by that, because
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 3: that's like that's going to be a big year.
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 8: But two years from now, and and I mean, it's
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 8: it's gonna obviously have a good slice of humor in it,
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 8: you know, which which is true, which is true to
• 1:05:49
  Speaker 8: the original, And you know it's gonna be it's it's
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 8: it's from what from what I know, it's gonna be
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 8: pretty cool.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 6: That was the most exciting part. That was exciting part
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 6: of the announcement. I remember seeing the bloody disgusting headline
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 6: that Sleepway Camp remake us coming, but when I saw
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 6: that Robert was coming back, that was like the that's incredible.
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:06:10
  Speaker 6: I was like, whoa, whoa, hold on. I remember reading
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 6: it again just making sure I didn't like confuse executive
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 6: producer with director or anything. I was double check yeah,
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 6: and he'll script yeah. Yeah, it's so cool man, We're
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 6: very that's pretty cool.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 8: Yeah.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 3: And it's clear the company doing it that, you know,
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 3: Johnny and Keenan they've been thinking about it for a
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 3: long time, which is I think very exciting because they're
• 1:06:36
  Speaker 3: just so excited about it. So I think, you know,
• 1:06:39
  Speaker 3: the energy is going to just be great.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 8: I mean, I look at the collectibles. John sends me
• 1:06:43
  Speaker 8: pictures of the collectibles and stuff like that. He's like,
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 8: you know, I mean constantly reassuring me. Is like your
• 1:06:49
  Speaker 8: baby's in good hands, like I was.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 4: They love it.
• 1:06:54
  Speaker 8: Those two guys love it as much as we do,
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 8: as much as Robert does.
• 1:06:58
  Speaker 4: That's pretty cool.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 1:07:00
  Speaker 6: Well it's it's cool now because uh, Fantastic Fests just
• 1:07:04
  Speaker 6: passed and neither of us were there. I've never been.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 6: But uh, the the movie getting a ton of buzz
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 6: out of that is the remake of Silent Night, Deadly Night,
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 6: which is so great to hear because like Sleepaway Camp,
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 6: it's one of those movies that like deep cut eighties
• 1:07:21
  Speaker 6: horror fans know and love. And when you when you're
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 6: told there's a remake coming, you're there's always a little
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 6: bit of that, Uh Okay, you know, I hope this works.
• 1:07:31
  Speaker 6: You know, you want it to be great, but you
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 6: hope it comes out that way. And the first batch
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 6: of reviews are incredible, like people are loving it. They've
• 1:07:41
  Speaker 6: already kind of started putting some of the reactions from
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 6: the festival into the marketing, so they're starting to build
• 1:07:47
  Speaker 6: it up, and uh, it's it's it's it's so funny
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 6: to see remakes getting such great attention now because everyone's
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 6: looking back at older remakes that we thought we didn't
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 6: like it one point in time, and now we're kind
• 1:08:02
  Speaker 6: of retroactively like, oh wait, hold on, that was actually
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 6: really really good. We need to revisit this, like House
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 6: of Wax, Texas, Chainsaw Massacre. You know, we're looking in
• 1:08:11
  Speaker 6: TV shows.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 9: Yeah, even TV shows we're all getting remade now. So yeah,
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 9: it's it's what seems to know what people want.
• 1:08:17
  Speaker 6: Yeah, people want it. And I also think though we
• 1:08:21
  Speaker 6: appreciate the I don't want to say, because Sun like
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 6: Deadly Night, from what I'm hearing, is kind of taking
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 6: things in a different direction, which I admire. I think
• 1:08:31
  Speaker 6: we want to just be back in these worlds. And
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 6: as long as you're as long as you're coming at
• 1:08:37
  Speaker 6: it from a place of love and a place where
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 6: you're keeping the fans in mind. We see, we we
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 6: can feel that right away. You don't. It doesn't need
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 6: to be the same story, it doesn't need to be
• 1:08:47
  Speaker 6: the same setting. We just need to feel that you
• 1:08:50
  Speaker 6: respect the people who love the movie, and you respect
• 1:08:53
  Speaker 6: the movie that came before it. Everything else will just
• 1:08:56
  Speaker 6: naturally work into place, I think.
• 1:08:58
  Speaker 8: And I mean, you know, and and obviously for this one,
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 8: how do you beat that ending?
• 1:09:02
  Speaker 4: Right?
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 6: You know?
• 1:09:04
  Speaker 8: So the curiosity factor is going to be pretty pretty high.
• 1:09:08
  Speaker 4: I think up to up to the release of this
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 4: you know, you.
• 1:09:12
  Speaker 6: Know, that's gonna be the that's the make or break moment,
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 6: right because everyone's gonna be everyone's gonna be twiddling their
• 1:09:19
  Speaker 6: thumbs until those final thirty seconds.
• 1:09:22
  Speaker 8: I think I think they'll be pleasantly, pleasantly surprised.
• 1:09:28
  Speaker 6: That makes me very happy to hear.
• 1:09:29
  Speaker 8: And you're gonna have You're gonna have a world, a
• 1:09:32
  Speaker 8: world of cameos in this thing, because you know, I mean,
• 1:09:36
  Speaker 8: you guys know everybody is a fan of this in
• 1:09:39
  Speaker 8: the industry, So it's you know that the people that
• 1:09:41
  Speaker 8: want to the people that want to show their face,
• 1:09:45
  Speaker 8: which is kind of cool with Keenan doing it because
• 1:09:47
  Speaker 8: Tina Fey obviously is one of the biggest fans, so
• 1:09:51
  Speaker 8: it's it's obviously connection there.
• 1:09:55
  Speaker 9: She wrote about it in her book. Yeah, Kevin Smith.
• 1:10:00
  Speaker 5: It's fascinating.
• 1:10:02
  Speaker 4: Who did you say, Kevin Smith? Eli, I mean, in
• 1:10:07
  Speaker 4: a world of other people. So it's pretty cool.
• 1:10:10
  Speaker 8: There's gonna be a lot of there's gonna be a
• 1:10:12
  Speaker 8: lot of oh my god, what's his name?
• 1:10:15
  Speaker 4: It escapes me now from.
• 1:10:18
  Speaker 8: What's the show with with Harrison Ford, Catherine's braid at
• 1:10:20
  Speaker 8: the stuff with the.
• 1:10:21
  Speaker 4: Shrinked, shrink Shrinking, Shrinking, Drinking. Who's the lead in Shrinking?
• 1:10:29
  Speaker 9: I know the guys, I see him, but I can't
• 1:10:30
  Speaker 9: picture his name.
• 1:10:31
  Speaker 3: Yeah, Jason Segel.
• 1:10:36
  Speaker 4: Jason.
• 1:10:37
  Speaker 8: Jason's one of the biggest fans. Because it was funny
• 1:10:39
  Speaker 8: when when we were gonna do it with Blumhouse, when
• 1:10:43
  Speaker 8: Jason made us an offer to do the film, he
• 1:10:46
  Speaker 8: had Charlie McDowell directing Wow, Yeah, which was which was crazy.
• 1:10:53
  Speaker 8: I saw the dad just at the last convention, so
• 1:10:55
  Speaker 8: I was gonna need myself and told him about it
• 1:10:58
  Speaker 8: and uh, and he had Kevin who wrote seven was
• 1:11:02
  Speaker 8: gonna was gonna write it and they they're obviously friends
• 1:11:05
  Speaker 8: with with Jason and they said, he watches it like religiously.
• 1:11:09
  Speaker 8: On the weekend, they get their their friends together and
• 1:11:13
  Speaker 8: they they get some weed and then they like.
• 1:11:19
  Speaker 4: Just watched this movie, you said, and roll on the floor.
• 1:11:22
  Speaker 4: He said, it's like they love it. They love it.
• 1:11:24
  Speaker 4: You're gonna get a lot of you gotta get a.
• 1:11:26
  Speaker 8: Lot of Yeah, a lot of cool little appearances in there.
• 1:11:30
  Speaker 4: Yeah, So what is it like?
• 1:11:32
  Speaker 6: I know one question to hear all the time in
• 1:11:35
  Speaker 6: interviews is, you know the interview will always ask you know,
• 1:11:39
  Speaker 6: what's it like? Uh, you know, absorbing what the movie
• 1:11:42
  Speaker 6: has become and stuff, and people are always super appreciative.
• 1:11:46
  Speaker 6: But from your guys point of view, to see a
• 1:11:50
  Speaker 6: novelization of remake, your first hand experience at the conventions,
• 1:11:55
  Speaker 6: is there ever a moment where you're just sort of
• 1:11:57
  Speaker 6: by yourself and you just it all just sinks in
• 1:12:02
  Speaker 6: and you realize the impact that the story, your characters,
• 1:12:07
  Speaker 6: your performances have had, because I can't imagine what that
• 1:12:14
  Speaker 6: would feel like when I get a moment if I
• 1:12:16
  Speaker 6: was to get away from a crowd and just let
• 1:12:19
  Speaker 6: it all hit. I can't imagine what that feeling is.
• 1:12:22
  Speaker 7: Like. I think it hits when we're at conventions and
• 1:12:25
  Speaker 7: we're next to some maybe some you know, Kathleen Turner
• 1:12:29
  Speaker 7: or Richard Dreyfuss, and we're sitting there and we have
• 1:12:31
  Speaker 7: crowds as well, and I think that's when it hits me,
• 1:12:33
  Speaker 7: like Jesus, how did this happen? You know that that's more.
• 1:12:38
  Speaker 7: That's when I'm impacted the most.
• 1:12:43
  Speaker 8: Yeah, Or when we're doing the photos and all of
• 1:12:45
  Speaker 8: a sudden, like some big director or or or yes,
• 1:12:51
  Speaker 8: actor will come and be like can I grab.
• 1:12:55
  Speaker 3: We took the Sam Raimi.
• 1:12:57
  Speaker 4: And I was like, yeah, me too.
• 1:12:59
  Speaker 8: I was like that's cool, you know, So that's pretty cool.
• 1:13:03
  Speaker 8: I think like every night after we get done with it,
• 1:13:06
  Speaker 8: it's like it's like a moment of reflection where you're like, well,
• 1:13:10
  Speaker 8: I can't believe this happening is pretty cool, you know,
• 1:13:12
  Speaker 8: And then you see those people because we.
• 1:13:14
  Speaker 4: Don't hide out in our rooms.
• 1:13:16
  Speaker 8: You know, we go and we go and hang out
• 1:13:19
  Speaker 8: and hang out with the friends that we've made along
• 1:13:22
  Speaker 8: the way and hang out with each other and go
• 1:13:24
  Speaker 8: to the eat and everything else. And then people are
• 1:13:26
  Speaker 8: all at the table when you're talking, it's like and
• 1:13:28
  Speaker 8: you're looking at that going, wow, what a cool second
• 1:13:31
  Speaker 8: family to have, you know, it makes it really makes
• 1:13:34
  Speaker 8: you appreciate life because you know, we're lifelong friends now
• 1:13:37
  Speaker 8: and it's pretty cool.
• 1:13:39
  Speaker 3: It is an interesting thing though, because I don't like,
• 1:13:43
  Speaker 3: I don't think it I ever realized, like my life
• 1:13:47
  Speaker 3: where I live, nobody knows that I've been in this movie.
• 1:13:50
  Speaker 3: And I think it's fascinating and just in terms of life,
• 1:13:55
  Speaker 3: like when I go to these places and like people
• 1:13:58
  Speaker 3: hold the door open for me and like are afraid
• 1:14:00
  Speaker 3: to meet me, and then I'm you know, in my
• 1:14:03
  Speaker 3: life and like Katy said, she walked her dog, her
• 1:14:06
  Speaker 3: daughter's dog all day, you know, like nobody is doing that.
• 1:14:09
  Speaker 3: And so I don't really feel like I've made an impact.
• 1:14:12
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't feel any different, but except I.
• 1:14:15
  Speaker 8: Can't recognize all the time that doesn't happen. It's so strange.
• 1:14:20
  Speaker 4: I feel like it can get it all every airport
• 1:14:22
  Speaker 4: of it.
• 1:14:23
  Speaker 3: I feel like it's more of a partnership.
• 1:14:27
  Speaker 8: Moment because I own I have my own traveling with
• 1:14:30
  Speaker 8: me doing my documentary.
• 1:14:32
  Speaker 4: Obviously for that, I.
• 1:14:33
  Speaker 3: Communicate something here. So I feel like I think it's
• 1:14:37
  Speaker 3: a very interesting thing because I feel like it makes
• 1:14:39
  Speaker 3: me know that everybody's that interesting, Like everybody has something
• 1:14:43
  Speaker 3: about them that I don't know about that makes them special.
• 1:14:45
  Speaker 3: So like you could just be walking down the street
• 1:14:47
  Speaker 3: and there's somebody who is in a movie and I
• 1:14:49
  Speaker 3: don't know it, but I should treat them special anyway,
• 1:14:51
  Speaker 3: because if they're at a convention, you know, I'm getting
• 1:14:54
  Speaker 3: to you know, get it. It just makes me more
• 1:14:57
  Speaker 3: humble because it makes me love people more because I
• 1:15:00
  Speaker 3: realize in my regular life people don't think I'm special, so.
• 1:15:04
  Speaker 4: They just.
• 1:15:07
  Speaker 8: Crazy.
• 1:15:08
  Speaker 3: But I don't mean that, Like I do a lot
• 1:15:12
  Speaker 3: of break stuff. I'm a foster care advocate. I do
• 1:15:14
  Speaker 3: so much good work with that I love. I don't
• 1:15:16
  Speaker 3: mean that, but I mean, like, you know, I'm just
• 1:15:18
  Speaker 3: a normal regular everybody. You know, I do suicide prevention.
• 1:15:22
  Speaker 3: I do a lot of good things. I'm not putting
• 1:15:23
  Speaker 3: my stuff, I'm not asking for anything. I'm just saying
• 1:15:25
  Speaker 3: as a person, you know, like I'm not walking around
• 1:15:28
  Speaker 3: like so it makes me realize that everybody, everybody has
• 1:15:32
  Speaker 3: something that we don't know about that that's just fascinating.
• 1:15:35
  Speaker 7: And that's your beautiful outlook too, Karen. Do you feel
• 1:15:38
  Speaker 7: that way about people and you love people? Which is
• 1:15:40
  Speaker 7: which is that you always communicate that and that's why
• 1:15:42
  Speaker 7: people that were to spread and that's why people love
• 1:15:45
  Speaker 7: you so much and want to come see you and
• 1:15:46
  Speaker 7: meet you, you know, And it's.
• 1:15:50
  Speaker 9: Yeah, And I mean, I'm.
• 1:15:51
  Speaker 4: Living if there's six foot three and forty.
• 1:15:54
  Speaker 8: Pound guys, I love that.
• 1:16:00
  Speaker 9: Living in Hollywood. I mean, I'm I'm there with it
• 1:16:04
  Speaker 9: every day. I'm always you know.
• 1:16:05
  Speaker 7: My daughter's an actress and a writer as well and director,
• 1:16:07
  Speaker 7: so I'm meeting other hard director she's worked with that
• 1:16:10
  Speaker 7: go oh my god, we love so I do get
• 1:16:13
  Speaker 7: that and hear that, but it is.
• 1:16:15
  Speaker 4: So much more.
• 1:16:16
  Speaker 9: When you're at a convention, it's just it's a it's
• 1:16:20
  Speaker 9: amped to NonStop.
• 1:16:22
  Speaker 4: So that's pretty cool.
• 1:16:23
  Speaker 3: Yeah, it's my daughter. My daughter produces podcast and it is.
• 1:16:27
  Speaker 3: It has come to a point where it's interesting where
• 1:16:29
  Speaker 3: she meets so many people who are like, oh my god,
• 1:16:30
  Speaker 3: really whereas like years ago, she would be like, not
• 1:16:33
  Speaker 3: even tell anybody, and it just comes out for that factor. Yeah,
• 1:16:37
  Speaker 3: it is fascinating in that sense.
• 1:16:40
  Speaker 4: My son, my.

  Speaker 8: Son lives in in in Connecticut, and he was at
• 1:16:43

  Speaker 8: has a place in West Haven in the Strip Mall
• 1:18:52
  Speaker 8: that is like a great Italian restaurant and he makes

  Speaker 8: joint called Zoo Parties, and he learned all his skills
• 1:19:05

• 1:19:06
  Speaker 8: was in Germany. He came from Italy. And this guy
• 1:19:09
  Speaker 8: makes like the best pizza. So if you're West Haven, Connecticut,
• 1:19:12
  Speaker 8: you gotta go to Lorenzo's place.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 6: Well, I don't want to.
• 1:19:14
  Speaker 8: If that's not some of the best pizza you've had.

  Speaker 6: I might have been exactly. It was good. Okay, it
• 1:19:22
  Speaker 6: was like you know, we we and it was good.
• 1:19:25
  Speaker 6: But getting back to Jersey, it just it brought me
• 1:19:28
  Speaker 6: back to life.

  Speaker 4: You know, Ron Howard.
• 1:19:30
  Speaker 8: Ron Howard like goes to Connecticut just to eat that pizza.

• 1:19:46
  Speaker 8: A Sally's fan, and I'm a I'm a Peppies fan.
• 1:19:49
  Speaker 8: But I mean, to this day, I mean, it's like
• 1:19:51
  Speaker 8: it's like religion for us. If you grew up in Connecticut,
• 1:19:55
  Speaker 8: Pizza Worcester Street Pizza is like is it?

• 1:20:31
  Speaker 6: New York. It's a venue called the Knockdown Center. I

• 1:20:38
  Speaker 6: that's kind of the area we'll be in. And I
• 1:20:39

  Speaker 6: find some New York pizza and give it a go
• 1:20:48
  Speaker 6: while we're there.
• 1:20:49
  Speaker 8: The good thing about New York is, like, you know,
• 1:20:51
  Speaker 8: any restaurant that's open and like a borough like Queens
• 1:20:55
  Speaker 8: is usual.
• 1:20:57
  Speaker 4: Otherwise they don't survive.
• 1:21:00
  Speaker 8: New Yorkers are pretty They have to have a lot
• 1:21:01
  Speaker 8: of choices, so you gotta serve good Grubb or you're out.
• 1:21:06
  Speaker 6: That's what That's what I thought. That was. That was
• 1:21:07
  Speaker 6: the process going in.
• 1:21:09
  Speaker 8: But but again, none of it as good as Worcester
• 1:21:11

• 1:22:22
  Speaker 5: that the ending would be become that infamous or did
• 1:22:26
  Speaker 5: the impact only hit you guys, like later on after
• 1:22:29
  Speaker 5: you you saw that it had this big cult following
• 1:22:32
  Speaker 5: as time went on.
• 1:22:34
  Speaker 3: No idea at all, and we didn't even know the
• 1:22:36
  Speaker 3: ending untill we knew it right at the premiere.

  Speaker 8: Different than being on set and knowing what it is
• 1:23:05
  Speaker 8: and then seeing it on the screen like that, and
• 1:23:07
  Speaker 8: that the way that music kind of came in and
