0:52
My name is Travis. My name is Jesse.
0:54
And welcome to another episode folks, because today we're
0:57
talking our Patreon voted episode, which.
1:00
Was Happy Death Day. So that's you're unfamiliar with
1:03
Happy Death Day. It is a time loop movie, yeah.
1:07
That was weird. Jesse just pointed at me and
1:09
then I just was like, go with it, just go with it.
1:12
I got the idea in the moment, yeah.
1:15
That was pretty good. Okay.
1:16
Cool. All right.
1:17
So yeah, we're talking about Happy Death Day, which is a
1:20
like, Jesse said movie. That's about a lot of repeat, so
1:25
maybe there's about a lot of repeat.
1:29
It's also for our comedy, so I hope you guys are already
1:32
laughing at us here with our Dicks in our hands, struggling
1:40
to get the flow right. It's all good.
1:43
Cool. Do you have anything you want to
1:45
announce before we get into it? Patrons of the budget tier
1:49
level, we will have our bonus episode out sometime between
1:54
today and Saturday. Yeah.
1:56
So trying to trying to pin down exactly what we're doing, we
2:00
kind of we're. Tossing out ideas.
2:04
Yeah, we're tossing out ideas right now.
2:06
So we'll have it. That will be out soon this
2:08
weekend, so keep a look out for that.
2:12
Also keep a look out for the link to vote for October's
2:16
maybe. That's right, we're doing
2:19
something. Different with that one because
2:22
October is all about movies that we haven't seen or we're showing
2:26
each other movies that the other hasn't seen.
2:28
Yes. And then our Halloween movie
2:30
will be a movie that neither of us have seen.
2:33
Yes. But we wanted the vote to be you
2:36
guys actually choose a Halloween theme movie and that's gonna be
2:41
one of the Halloween theme movies that we cover this month.
2:44
Yes. So we'll have those options up
2:46
on the Patreon. If they're not up already, then
2:50
they'll be up today. Yeah, since we got gotta get
2:54
that scheduled together. Check it right now.
2:56
It's October this weekend, people, which means it's
2:59
officially the best time of the year.
3:01
Hell. Yeah.
3:02
OK. Well, it's really hoping you
3:04
would do that with me. The best time of the year, We
3:07
just watched that. Well, we weren't talking about
3:09
Halloween. OK, let's go.
3:12
All right. So I got our poll results, OK.
3:14
We were talking about saw two US.
3:17
Yeah, we were. So rules for that one right
3:21
there. Oliver.
3:22
Polls for the saw movies are which trap do you think you
3:24
could survive. Yep.
3:25
So out of the traps, we chose death mask, the furnace, the
3:32
needle pit, and talking the jigsaw for two hours.
3:35
Okay. So I've got the results for that
3:38
on Instagram. Nobody survives death mask.
3:41
Okay. 18% survive the furnace, 12% survive the needle pit. 71%
3:49
survived talking the jigsaw for two hours.
3:51
Meanwhile, over at Twitter, nobody survives the death mask,
3:56
11% survived the furnace, 22% survived the needle pit, and 67%
4:02
survived talking the jigsaw. Now, I know that talking the
4:06
jigsaw sounds like it'd be an easy thing to accomplish, but we
4:10
talked about it and he's kind of obnoxious and.
4:14
You got to consider you got a loved one being held hostage and
4:18
he's not really wanting to talk to you about it.
4:20
It's going to be frustrating to sit there for two hours.
4:23
However, I do think I was swayed by Tyler's response where he is
4:28
just going to hit the shade button from Ru Paul's Drag Race.
4:33
Yeah, I I like that. I could have fun with that.
4:36
We, we actually had a lot of, like, writeins for like how that
4:40
they would, yeah, do it. And yeah, that was one of them.
4:43
Y'all are some tricky, Mink says.
4:44
I'm impressed. Tucker said that he would.
4:48
I'd take the needle pit before having to deal with Cramer's
4:50
sanctimonious bullshit. So you know what?
4:55
I absolutely understand that. And Joe?
4:59
Freak Tron, as is his name. He said that he would do the
5:02
furnace because he would just take one of them.
5:06
And no, actually, he said he's gonna look at the chain and he's
5:09
not gonna just pull it. He's gonna like, untie it that
5:12
way. It doesn't lock him in.
5:13
I mean, that pretty much is what they do to get out of the little
5:17
shotgun one in Part 3. Exactly.
5:20
Yeah. The Stinky Pig Guts, McGee
5:23
Judge. I thought that that was going to
5:25
be the name of the trap. Stinky Pig Guts McGee.
5:28
Well, that's the name of his trap.
5:30
OK, yeah. So, you know, there's a lot of
5:32
ways you could do that. I would do the the conversation
5:39
I and you know what? When I was editing the episode,
5:43
you never said which one you would survive.
5:46
I thought I said that I would probably do the McDonald's Cup
5:51
one because I would actually follow instructions that
5:54
actually listened to the instructions.
5:56
I do remember that now. Yeah.
5:57
OK, so that one wasn't an option, I know.
6:01
Well, that's why I just said I would do the conversation with
6:04
the shade button. Oh, right, right.
6:07
OK, OK, so that's your polls. So let's talk about Happy Death
6:10
Day. Yay.
6:11
All right, everybody. So Happy Death Day released
6:15
October 13th, 2017. It's almost happy Death Day's
6:19
happy birthday I. Know, Right.
6:21
It's so crazy to me that this came out.
6:24
What is it going to be 6 years ago?
6:27
Yeah, it feels so much more. Recent.
6:30
Yeah, right. I think of things that came out
6:32
in 2019. I'm like, that happened
6:34
yesterday. But yeah, and 2017 is kind of
6:38
like that too. It's just crazy.
6:39
Time's escaping it. We watched it on our Blu-ray.
6:43
You can watch it as of September 24th.
6:47
Nowhere to stream, but if you would like to rent it, you can
6:50
rent it on YouTube, Google Voodoo, Redbox, or Amazon Prime.
6:55
Yes Movie was written by Scott Lobdell, directed by Christopher
7:00
Landon, music by Bear McCreary, and special effects makeup done
7:04
by Tom Wiseman, Matt Kutcher, Zack Knight, Justin Johnson,
7:09
Elias du Jr. and Troy Collins Jr.
7:15
All right, cast. Jessica Roth stars as Trey
7:18
Gelpman, Israel Brossard plays Carter Davis, Ruby Modine plays
7:25
Lori Spingler, Charles Aitken plays Gregory Butler, Rachel
7:29
Matthews plays Danielle Bowsman, and Rob Mello plays John Tunes.
7:33
All right. All right, time to play our
7:36
favorite game Budget or butter? What do you think?
7:43
This is Blum House, right? Yeah, Bug Ted.
7:46
Yeah. It's almost cheating when you
7:48
know I'm going to start masking whether or not it's Blum House
7:52
or not, unless it's like a big one like Halloween or something.
7:55
Because I already knew it was Blum House, though.
7:57
OK, whatever. So yeah, Bum house.
7:59
Notorious for being cheat bastards.
8:02
They have a budget. Jason Blum figured out the
8:06
formula. It's a very simple formula,
8:08
people. A very simple formula.
8:09
You're right. I mean, it works he.
8:12
He lets people do what they want to do.
8:14
Yeah, he's like, go be creative. You get this much of a budget.
8:17
If I like you and you make money, you can do it again.
8:20
With more money, yeah, maybe, maybe, maybe.
8:23
This is not good ahead of ourselves here.
8:26
So yeah, the budget for this is 4.8 million.
8:30
They had an opening box office of 26,000,000 and a worldwide
8:34
gross of 125.5 million. Nice IMDb score 6.6 OK.
8:42
All right, so I've got 3 movies that also released in 2017 to
8:46
compare it to. OK, And the theme since Happy
8:49
Death Day is a PG13 horror, is PG13 horror movies that released
8:53
in 2017 OK, no. But there's like one point right
8:58
before the car explodes and she says, oh fuck.
9:01
And I was like, that feels like a very purposeful we get one
9:04
fuck. And then I went through this
9:05
whole spiral in my head. Is this PG13?
9:08
Yeah. Is this PG13OK?
9:10
There was. The original draft was more
9:13
gory, more R rated, but they ended up getting it toned down.
9:18
OK, so yeah, we ended up with this.
9:20
So yeah, I've got three other PG13 movies to compare it to
9:24
here. All right, first movie The.
9:26
Papa Mia the. Papa Mia.
9:29
Don't think it. Don't see it.
9:30
Don't think it. Don't see it.
9:31
That was one of those January releases because we saw it on my
9:33
birthday that year. Yeah, well, almost your
9:35
birthday. Well, it might have been your
9:37
birthday because it released. January 13th, 2017 so we could
9:41
have done an early release. Had a budget of 7.4 million
9:46
worldwide Gross 29.8 million IMDb 4.30 no.
9:53
I know people shit on that movie, but I think it was
9:55
exactly what I wanted it to be. I didn't want anything serious.
9:58
I mean, it's called the fucking Bye bye, man.
10:01
Yeah, so I went in expecting stupid.
10:04
Bye bye man. Horror.
10:05
And that's exactly what I got. I also appreciate the fact that
10:08
they threw in a song from all that jazz in there, so I don't
10:12
feel like there's enough love for all that jazz.
10:13
What the fuck is all that jazz musical?
10:15
Oh, OK, that must have really stuck with you if you're
10:18
remembering. Yeah, you've only watched it
10:20
that one time. Yeah, it's whenever, like he's
10:24
nearby and that plays that goodbye life.
10:28
You're making it makes it sound like anytime he is near like you
10:31
can hear like I think like slowly gets louder cuz he's
10:35
getting quick. I think of it more as like a
10:38
final destination premonition music.
10:40
OK. Yeah, he's like John Denver.
10:41
OK, yeah, I like that idea. All right. 2nd movie rings with
10:48
an S OK or otherwise known as Ring 3HM So.
10:57
That release February 3rd, 2017 Budget 25,000,000 Worldwide
11:02
gross 83,000,000 IMDb score 4.5. I just feel like if you live in
11:07
a post alien franchise world that you need to not fuck with
11:13
the naming schema. You know what I mean?
11:15
Like if you're going to call it Rings, clearly that should be
11:18
Part 2. Yeah, but Part 2 is just the
11:21
ring two. I've not seen either of the
11:23
sequels. Who the fuck dropped the ball
11:25
here? I need to talk to some people.
11:28
I remember reading about this because I was really excited
11:30
when it got announced and I think it kind of got stuck in
11:34
like production hell for a minute and then it kind of just
11:38
got dropped, if I remember correctly.
11:40
But then again, it did well. So I don't know, They might
11:43
have. I can't remember, honestly, OK.
11:46
All right. And the final movie, Wish Upon,
11:50
we also saw that one in theaters.
11:52
We did, yes, this right up my alley.
11:55
Released July 14th, 2017 with a budget of $12 million, worldwide
12:00
gross 23.4 million and an IMDb score of 5.1.
12:06
OK, yeah, that's what I'm hearing is that Happy Death Day
12:08
kicked some ass in 2017. Hell yeah, in terms of PG13
12:12
horror. Yeah, it it beat all of these by
12:15
a pretty big margin in fact. Well, no, OK.
12:17
It didn't make as much as all. It made it almost as much as all
12:21
of these combined. Yeah, which is pretty solid on a
12:23
lower budget than all of them. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
12:26
Yeah. All of them are budget tier.
12:29
None of them are like in the Buck Ted zone.
12:31
I thought you said bye bye man was 7 million.
12:34
Oh shit, you're right, 7.4 whoops, I misread that.
12:36
OK, yeah, so bye bye. Man was bucked at, but the rest
12:38
of them budget OK. I've got a decent amount of
12:43
taglines here. OK, OK, I'm ready.
12:45
All right, so the one that's on the poster Get up.
12:49
Live your day. Get killed again, OK, it's like
12:54
the world's worst checklist. Yeah, I'm not a big fan.
12:59
Yeah, I like. I like the second one a little
13:03
bit better. It's make every death count.
13:07
You know what? I like that, Yeah.
13:09
It's motivational. It's inspirational and it and
13:13
it's part of the story. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
13:15
Make every death count. I like it all up.
13:16
All right, Next up, Worst birthday ever.
13:21
Yeah, that's. Yeah, that's just like the
13:23
lowest hanging fruit. Yeah.
13:25
That's like our fucking plumdry in the backyard where you can
13:28
just like there's the fruit that's that that's that tagline.
13:32
Yeah. I mean, it's like the comic book
13:33
guy from The Simpsons. Yeah, exactly. 1st birthday
13:39
ever. This one.
13:41
Unlimited amount of lives, Unlimited amount of chances to
13:44
find the killer. It's OK, but it sounds like the
13:49
tagline for, like, a Christopher Pike novel.
13:53
I don't know who that is, but I agree.
13:58
Next Die, Repeat. I think that that's a play on
14:02
the Edge of Tomorrow, which was Live, Die, repeat, OK?
14:06
And everybody loved that, and to the point where everybody calls
14:09
that movie Live, Die, Repeat instead of Edge of Tomorrow.
14:11
I knew none of this. OK, so that's what I think it
14:14
is. I think it's just die.
14:15
Repeat. OK, yeah, I could be wrong.
14:18
Next up, How will you die? 17 different ways?
14:23
Yeah, there's no one, according to this movie.
14:26
And the final one, find your killer or die trying.
14:30
Find your killer and die trying. Yeah, that would actually be,
14:34
you know, I just punched that up.
14:36
I just made it a little bit better.
14:38
That could be our tagline. We'll see.
14:41
We'll see. We might have something else in
14:43
the story. All right, okay.
14:45
So on to fun facts. The movie was originally called
14:48
Half to Death What? That's what it was called half
14:53
to. Death Half to death.
14:54
It was written by Scott Lobdell, who so like scared half to
14:58
death. I guess, I don't know.
15:02
I I honestly don't know. I couldn't tell you the guy.
15:04
By the way, the writer is Scott Lobdell.
15:07
He's like a big comic book writer.
15:09
So it's kind of. Like a cool thing for him to
15:11
just branch over. So he wrote this and they hired
15:14
Landon to do a read write. And then Landon took that
15:19
rewrite and sent it to Jason Blum, who he had a work
15:23
relationship with because he worked on a shit tone of
15:27
Paranormal Activity movies. I had no idea he was involved in
15:29
like all of them except for the first one.
15:32
But he's like written almost every single one of them now.
15:34
Yeah, I I really like Christopher Landon.
15:37
And if anybody was gonna take over for screen seven, I'm glad
15:40
it's him. I am absolutely on board with
15:42
that too. So yeah, you send it over to
15:45
Jason Blom, who greenlit it, and then they got it going.
15:49
You'll like this. Jessica Roth describes this
15:51
movie as Groundhog's Day meets Scream Queens.
15:54
Yes. Yes.
15:57
Which scream Queens? Jesse has finally got me
15:59
watching, and now we are. Like, almost done with season
16:03
one? Yeah, I'm hoping that we can get
16:05
through season one and two in time for that to maybe be our
16:07
October Patreon bonus episode. That could be fun.
16:11
I do a rewatch every Halloween. And I told Travis was like,
16:14
look, if you want to watch this, I will watch it with you.
16:17
But it has to be done before Halloween.
16:20
That's that's how I do it so. Yeah.
16:23
Well, yeah. So we've been on a crunch and I
16:25
can kind of see the comparisons. Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
16:27
Pretty accurate. I also like that Jessica Roth is
16:31
a fan of Scream Queens though. Yeah, which was like, why are
16:33
you not in the show then, right? If they came back for a season
16:38
three, I could totally see her reaching out to Ryan Murphy and
16:41
being like, hey. I could see it too, yeah.
16:44
So to make each day feel different, there was a challenge
16:47
because, you know, they're shooting the same stuff every
16:49
single time. But the way that they went about
16:52
doing that, they changed how the camera worked the entire time.
16:56
So whenever she first starts her loops, the camera is all steady,
17:00
everything's fine. But then as the movie goes on,
17:03
it gets a little bit more shaky and frantic.
17:06
All right, Do you know what order they shot stuff in like?
17:09
Because it seems like it would make sense just from like a
17:13
budgeting and scheduling perspective, to do all of the
17:16
quad scenes on a single day and all of that and.
17:19
So I got that as the next point okay.
17:23
So the way that they would do it, they would shoot at one
17:26
angle and then run through the different days all at once.
17:29
OK, so they would like keep the camera there.
17:31
And then when I was watching the special features, it was showing
17:34
whenever she would walk into her room and Laurie would be like
17:37
somebody just rolled in or just rolled in or she finally rolls.
17:42
She finally rolls in. Yeah, And then it was just like
17:45
her, like saying that over and over again.
17:47
But like, you have to know that you're in a different day each
17:50
time, so you have to, like, do a different delivery.
17:52
And it would be jumping back and forth to different days just so
17:54
I get different shots of it. Yeah.
17:56
I was just thinking about how, like, impressive it is, both
17:59
from Jessica Roth's perspective to be able to channel those
18:03
different emotions each. Yeah, time.
18:06
But also like Carter and Danielle and Laurie and the cute
18:11
little Vietnamese sister at the front of the house.
18:14
Like, they all have to act like it's the same thing every single
18:16
time. They basically have to be
18:18
consistent with theirs. Yeah, they have to be like
18:21
running on every single time. That one is kind of tough, yeah.
18:25
That's a lot of moving pieces to have to try and coordinate and
18:27
keep track of. Yeah.
18:29
So when they were designing the killer, they wanted the mask to
18:34
be plausible, A realistic type of mascot that they would have
18:38
what? Shut the fuck up.
18:40
They think that that that baby, that fucking baby is realistic.
18:44
Yeah, so I also think it's really fucking stupid.
18:47
Is Christopher Landon a Valentine's Day fan?
18:50
I could see it or Valentine. It's a very Cherubesque.
18:53
Yeah, baby face, but worse. Yeah, with, like the little,
18:56
like, yeah, Beaver teeth. Yeah, so.
19:00
And you know what? That mask designed by Tony
19:04
Gardner. Do you know who?
19:06
Tony Gardner? Ohh.
19:07
Fuck no, no no. I know the name.
19:09
Shit. High profile mask is in this
19:14
room. Is it the Scream?
19:18
Is it the ghost? Face.
19:18
It's the Ghost Face Mask. He designed the Ghost Face Mask.
19:21
I was gonna say it. That's probably why I know it,
19:23
cuz I wrote down all that information for Scream.
19:26
Yeah, when you're covering it. So yeah, they did that.
19:30
Okay. So when they were reviewing the
19:32
suspects on the special features, Christopher Landon was
19:35
talking about them. I don't know if this is
19:37
something that was in the movie. I didn't catch it, but he
19:40
revealed that so. The tree has a history of
19:43
stealing a lot of guys from Danielle, which is why that
19:46
there is tension between them. I don't think that that was ever
19:48
said outright in the movie, but that's why she was one of the
19:51
main suspects listed. It's kind of hinted because
19:55
after the like her first birthday, Lori tells her that
20:01
she rammed her tongue down Nick's throat and later at the
20:06
party on her. 2nd birthday Danielle's like, I can't believe
20:11
you're doing this to me again, so it's there.
20:14
Okay, it's hinted at. Okay.
20:16
So I didn't catch that, but I thought that that was like a
20:18
nice detail that I haven't confirmed.
20:20
And also, Laurie was also having an affair with Gregory.
20:24
I didn't really take that from the conversation.
20:27
I thought that she was mad that she was picked over her but they
20:30
were both having an affair with him.
20:33
Yeah, cuz it sounds like she is like maybe hitting on him and he
20:35
is rejecting her because yeah. But no, they were they were
20:38
okay. He was hooking up with both of
20:39
them and also he says that he always took it as her extra
20:45
motivation was that she also had a crush on Tree.
20:48
Ooh, okay. So that's kind of like really
20:51
confusing there cuz it's like 2 people that she's into.
20:54
Into each other and not her at all.
20:56
She played that totally wrong. She should have gone for like a
20:58
throuple situation. I know she could.
21:01
Well, maybe. I don't know if tree's on board
21:02
with that. I don't know if tree might.
21:04
She could be, I don't know. I feel like tree would be open
21:07
enough. Maybe by the end of the.
21:09
By the end of the movie. Not that.
21:10
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
21:11
So Laurie has to, like, kill her a dozen times, and then when
21:15
Tree is a better person, she just like slides.
21:17
Maybe that is how she came up. She's like, OK, I'll get her in
21:20
a time loop, I'll make her become a better person and then
21:23
we'll all fuck. So does Lauria just have really
21:26
bad self esteem issues because she has crushed on garbage
21:29
people who treat her poorly? But yeah, she has terrible
21:32
taste. Yeah.
21:34
OK, interesting. I like that.
21:37
That makes me want to watch the movie again.
21:39
And like, pay attention to any like undercurrents of that kind
21:43
of tension too. Where you can just kind of see
21:46
that, Yeah, Yeah, I I would like to see that also.
21:49
So we never actually see Tree die in the movie.
21:52
Everything always resets just before her death.
21:55
Yeah. So the reason that this is
21:57
happening is because Christopher Landon felt that if we ever
22:00
actually saw her die, it would kind of fuck with the idea of it
22:03
being a time loop. The whole idea of the time loop
22:06
was for her to be pulled from death at the very last second
22:09
and then brought back to as soon as she dies, boop restart.
22:12
It's like in Palm Springs. Yeah, which, yeah, very similar
22:17
to that. Yeah, Okay, and that's it.
22:20
OK, those are the things that I pulled for this movie, All
22:22
right? I like that.
22:23
I like that information. Yeah, I thought it was pretty
22:25
good too. The special features are great
22:27
on there. It's like really short and to
22:29
the point. You get all the information
22:31
really fast, I really. Appreciate it.
22:33
Yeah, that beats some special features where it's like the
22:36
making of and then it's just like people goofing around on
22:39
set, which don't get me wrong, I do love seeing stuff like that.
22:44
I think it's great to see how well a cast and crew like blend
22:48
together, but don't call it the making of.
22:51
There was, well, there was a little bit of that in this too.
22:53
There was a shot of Lori's body falling through the window and
22:59
like, we got to see the actual dummy hit in front of the
23:02
Vietnamese girl and then we just get to see her like run off
23:05
stage and then like her like just come back like OK, it was,
23:08
it was really funny seeing the dummy.
23:10
The dummy looked kind of like Lori, but it was just kind of
23:13
like, yeah. Yeah, it's funny.
23:16
Yeah. OK.
23:17
OK. So let's get on into it, Jesse.
23:19
Let's talk about the good, bad, ugly, and absurd.
23:21
What do you like about it? I really like the humor.
23:26
It hits just right for me. But I'm kind of a sarcastic
23:30
bitch. So it's it's in my wheelhouse,
23:33
you know? I love a movie, Mean girl, And
23:36
we get a lot of that here redemption arc.
23:40
That's always fun. Carter's just, like, such a good
23:43
guy. Yeah.
23:46
So I think that's nice seeing like their relationship develop.
23:50
And you know, we do get like those touching moments where she
23:56
dies to reset the day. So that way he doesn't say dead
23:58
forever and she goes and talks to her dad and they finally like
24:03
have the moment they've needed to have.
24:06
She grows, yeah. Like a tree.
24:10
Slowly, slowly. Yeah.
24:16
So I just think it's, it's a really fun movie.
24:18
It it keeps up the pace throughout.
24:21
I think like you never get like like they know when to stop a
24:25
bit, you know what I mean? Like.
24:28
That was one of the things I noticed about this.
24:30
We had deleted scenes which really could have, I think would
24:35
have worked fine in this movie, but they cut a lot of fat and
24:39
they kept it like a pretty lean. Yeah, moving movie, because it
24:42
would be so easy to just like have us go through those.
24:45
Like I think somebody with the lesser eye for editing might
24:49
have left in like longer loops going throughout.
24:52
But I think having the 1st loop where she's freaked out about it
24:56
being repeat of the day, the second day she's like really
25:00
freaking out. And then we get this montage of
25:02
her trying to solve it. I think that was the right way
25:05
to go about it. And then you get the twist at
25:07
the end because you think, OK cool, this was pretty easy to
25:09
solve. It's this murderer guy.
25:10
We've had hints of him throughout the whole movie where
25:14
he's like sitting outside of that hospital room and you think
25:17
that we've solved it and it's all good.
25:19
But then she wakes up again starting the day over.
25:22
I think that that was really good.
25:23
I didn't see the twist coming, and I think part of that helps
25:27
because she did start off the movie as such a classic movie
25:30
mean girl that everybody is a suspect.
25:33
Yes, because she's kind of fucking pissed off a lot of
25:37
people. I like that a lot, yeah.
25:38
Where they just make her such a horrible person.
25:41
So it has so many possibilities, Yes.
25:43
Yeah. And like, I also like that out
25:46
of all the people she suspected, she never put Laurie on the list
25:49
and she was legitimately surprised.
25:50
And then I like how pissed off she was that she was being
25:54
murdered over a guy. Yeah, And she's like, are you
25:56
fucking kidding me over a guy? But we.
26:00
Realized it's not all that. Yeah, exactly.
26:02
So I think this movie, just like it, does it for me on a lot of
26:06
levels. OK, so I agree with you.
26:09
I think that the humor and the horror is mixed pretty well here
26:13
because I feel like the humor is more.
26:17
In the movie. But when we do get the horror
26:19
scenes, it's actually pretty effective.
26:21
Yeah, like the first time we see the killer when it's like the
26:24
little toy in the tunnel. Oh my God, that whole setting.
26:27
Like, yeah. And every instinct in me is
26:30
saying don't walk across campus alone at night.
26:33
I know everything that's been ingrained my entire life, like.
26:40
Yeah, Yep. It's a shame.
26:43
But I also like the other scenes where you kind of just see the
26:46
killer in the background stocking around because, you
26:48
know, there's a couple of scenes like that where she's in her
26:51
room and it just kind of sneaks through the bathroom.
26:55
And then especially in the deleted scene, we don't get to
26:58
see this in the main movie. But whenever the Doctor Gregory
27:02
is killed, like you see the killer in the window behind.
27:05
Yeah, that was just there. Yeah.
27:07
Right. Like there's no attention call
27:09
to it other than. You know when tree calls
27:12
attention to. But then just like slowly moves
27:14
out of frame and it's all one shot and it looks really creepy.
27:17
That stuff gets me every time. I also really appreciate the
27:22
touch of her sustaining damage from all the deaths.
27:25
I thought that that was a nice spin on it because yeah, there.
27:28
Are consequences to all the actions even though she is
27:31
looping things? Yes.
27:32
That is cool. I like that a lot.
27:34
And that that's the one that fucks me up every time we watch
27:36
Palm Springs, because I'm like, you're dying so horrifically.
27:40
Right. And yeah, the consequences
27:42
aren't there in that movie. But yeah, it's I like having
27:45
consequences for something that shouldn't have consequences.
27:49
You know what I mean? Yeah.
27:51
And then my final thing I have is I I just like this as a fun
27:55
way to do a murder mystery type thing.
27:57
Yeah, like you get to die so many times and you it kind of
28:02
lets you have fun with finding the killer because you just see
28:05
her like try and fell over and over again.
28:08
And it's just a lot of slashing, yeah.
28:11
And bats to the head sometimes, yeah, bats to the heads,
28:14
drowning in the pool. Getting blown up?
28:16
Yeah, yeah, it's really fun. OK, what do you know like about
28:21
this? It always bums me out that she
28:27
does like the perfect day. She saves the people as she goes
28:32
through the quad. She apologizes to Lori for not
28:37
being nice, even though Lori's always there for her.
28:42
She's open with Danielle about a boy she's interested in.
28:46
She has this moment with her father.
28:49
Like, she does all of the things and think she solved it, and
28:54
then she dies, and then she wakes up the next day.
28:56
And even though she's had those growth moments personally, they
29:00
don't really matter in her new universe.
29:02
Yeah, like she's going to have to go through all of that stuff
29:06
again. Obviously not apologizing to
29:07
Lori, but like, like, you know, she's going to have to go talk
29:12
to her to add and, you know, relive all of that and worry
29:17
about patching things up with Danielle, like all of that type
29:21
of stuff. Like she has to redo it now.
29:24
Yeah. I see what you're saying, but I
29:26
kind of like that because that's what makes the twist so
29:29
effective, because you think that's like such a classic movie
29:33
moment where ohh okay, everything's going right.
29:35
This is the final one. And then she doesn't like she
29:39
wakes up again. I know.
29:41
It's so effective. I'm like, oh shit, it's still
29:43
going. It is so effective.
29:45
But I'm just sad that like, she did the hard things because it
29:49
is hard to do stuff like that, you know?
29:52
Yeah, it's hard to reckon with who you are versus who you want
29:56
to be. And she did that and it like I
30:02
said, it matters for her. She had that internal growth,
30:05
but now she's gotta. Gotta do it again.
30:07
Yeah. Yeah.
30:08
OK. So I don't really have a lot
30:12
either. My only thing is, despite
30:15
repeated exposure to all of these people in this movie, we
30:18
don't get any development from anybody else.
30:21
Everybody is still pretty much the exact same person that we
30:24
met from the beginning of the movie.
30:25
Yeah. And I know that they don't have
30:27
a way to like grow as much, but I figured, you know, with
30:31
different ways to take the day, we could like get more.
30:35
Like different things from people see, like how they grow
30:39
when she changes her interactions with them.
30:42
Exactly, Yeah. And I don't think we get that as
30:44
much. Yeah, Danielle's poor actor.
30:47
Like, her whole script has to be the same like 5 lines over and
30:53
over again. Yeah, like stuff like that.
30:56
So yeah. Yeah, and that's pretty much the
30:59
only thing I could think of. And even then, it's not that bad
31:01
because like, it's the same thing.
31:03
You know, it's hard to grow the other people that aren't
31:05
impacted by it. But you know, like you said you
31:07
could do with reacting, yeah. OK, ugly.
31:13
All right, I have two. OK, And one is John Tombs, which
31:21
Rob Mello? We've met him at Scare Fest.
31:23
He partied with Ron. Yeah, he like, emceed Scary
31:27
Okie. And he was hilarious.
31:29
He was flashing people not like, you know, the stuff that would
31:36
get him arrested, but like he was lifting up his shirt and
31:39
like. He was just like, taking his
31:40
shirt off and putting it back on.
31:42
Yeah, like flashing his nipples at people on the sidewalk, like.
31:44
Yeah, it was very like silly, goofy stuff.
31:47
And he also sang Nirvana's cover of Where Did You Sleep Last
31:53
Night? And got really into it.
31:54
Like he's just, he's an awesome guy.
31:56
He spoke on the indie movie panel.
31:58
So. And I know, like, lots of horror
32:03
movie actors are really nice people.
32:04
But, like, it was kind of a bummer, having seen him like
32:08
that and then listening to him murdering women and consistently
32:13
referring to Tree as a little girl and just absolutely being
32:16
brutal to her. Yeah, and he's just having to
32:19
play a pretty sick person. Yeah, a serial killer.
32:22
You know, yeah, John teams is one of those like icky serial
32:25
killers that you hear about and you're like ohh God, yeah, yeah.
32:30
So we got that. And then also I think a lot of
32:34
the like body shaming type stuff that happened, like a lot of the
32:39
like stuff with Kappa which is like in a movie you're
32:45
satirizing stuff. Not that that type of stuff
32:47
doesn't happen in some sororities.
32:51
Not it's not universal. But yeah, like the whole like,
32:57
that is not Kappa cuisine and we don't.
33:00
None of us eats breakfast, which I think is personally funny
33:03
because I'm not a breakfast eater and breakfast eaters do
33:06
not understand non breakfast eaters.
33:07
Yeah, it's the greatest divide in the world.
33:10
I occasionally eat breakfast when I'm hungry, but I'm just
33:12
usually not hungry until lunchtime.
33:14
So. Honestly, taking it back to
33:16
Scream Queens, it kind of reminds me of how they are in
33:19
their sorority, their cotton balls.
33:21
Yeah, they just dip them in BBQ sauce.
33:23
Like, yeah, I mean, yeah, That's Kappa cuisine right there.
33:25
Exactly. Yeah.
33:26
Oh my God, they're Kappa also. I know, right?
33:28
Yeah, it is Kappa cuisine. OK.
33:33
So yeah, I got two uglies also. So the first one on the frat
33:38
side of it this time, OK. That scene when Tree is getting
33:43
killed by the killer in the frat boys bedroom and the killer has
33:48
her pin and the drunk dude comes in there and he sees her getting
33:52
like, you know, dude pinning her on the bed and she's like, help
33:55
me and then he's like, hey, yeah.
33:58
He closes the door. He definitely assumes it's a
34:00
rape situation going down. He's like, yeah, that's cool.
34:02
And he cheers it on like, what the fuck?
34:05
Yeah, that was fucked up. That was pretty fucking ugly.
34:08
That's not OK. That is, that's bad.
34:12
Yeah, that's bad. And the other thing is Tree
34:16
ignoring her dad's calls. Because I understand that it's a
34:19
very heavy thing for her, but it's a very heavy thing for him
34:22
too. And he's just trying to connect
34:23
with the other person that he has in his life.
34:26
Yeah, it's like they they both experience multiple losses when
34:30
the mom died because he lost his wife and in a lot of senses his
34:35
daughter and she lost her mom and had a lot of senses her dad.
34:39
Yeah, exactly. So it's sad.
34:41
Yeah, Okay. Absurd.
34:45
What's absurd? Oh, absurd.
34:52
I guess I'm gonna go with fucking baby mascot.
34:57
Yeah, I hate it so much. There's like 1 scene in the quad
35:02
where like one guy is selling the gear for the game.
35:04
He's like show your pride 10% off with your student ID.
35:08
And in my notes, I was like, Who the fuck is buying this that
35:10
isn't a student? You are not doing that man's
35:13
delivery justice. It is perfect 10.
35:16
Percent 10% off No 10% off. Baby mask, Show your student ID.
35:23
You know, he says it like that. He doesn't know.
35:26
He doesn't have a hard ending. He knows it's a bullshit mascot.
35:29
Ohh, yeah, no, that's definitely like a student drop.
35:32
Yeah, yeah, that like he was assigned.
35:34
Yeah, that was my episode that I had written down to.
35:37
Like, that's not a realistic mascot.
35:39
Who the fuck would have a fucking baby?
35:41
Like, what does the rest of the mascot look like?
35:44
Is he in like a partially inflated sumo suit with a diaper
35:48
on like? I wish I would love to see that.
35:51
I want that guy to chase her around the entire time.
35:55
I did write one other thing down and it's the scene where Tree
35:58
does everything right. You were talking about it, and
36:01
she confronts Danielle about talking about the cap cuisine to
36:06
Becky. But Danielle does not believe
36:09
she's going to pour that chocolate milk on her.
36:11
Like she just stands there and lets it happen.
36:12
Speaking of the chocolate milk. She takes Becky's chocolate milk
36:16
to do it. She doesn't take her own
36:18
chocolate milk to do it. She's like, by the way, you
36:20
probably don't need this. Just like, pours it on her head.
36:23
I think it's so fucking funny that they're all like asked
36:26
about the chocolate milk, but they all have Venti Frappuccinos
36:29
from Starbucks. Is that what they have?
36:31
Yeah, like they all have like venti Frappuccinos and iced
36:34
lattes and stuff that have milk and chocolate and whipped cream.
36:39
Like, probably more calorie heavy than a glass of chocolate
36:42
milk. Those are like liquid cakes.
36:44
Yeah, pretty much. Yeah.
36:46
All right. So why are you rating this movie
36:50
8.75? 8.75 OK, I believe I'm gonna go
36:57
right about 7.75, which makes our average.
37:03
I wanna say it's 8.25, but I need to.
37:06
I need my phone to tell me that. OK, too many points.
37:09
OK, yeah, it is 8.2. Five, hey, OK.
37:13
All right. So let's get on into this one,
37:17
OK? We start off with the tree
37:20
waking up in a random dorm room and saying, oh God am I in a
37:24
dorm. Room, which I thought was
37:25
strange considering she is in college.
37:28
Well, cuz she lives in the sorority house.
37:29
I know. I got it now.
37:31
But like, whenever we were watching last time, I was like,
37:33
yeah, dude, you're in college. And she probably would have
37:35
assumed she would have gone home with like, a frat guy.
37:37
Yeah, she's in that room with a cool guy.
37:40
So yeah, it is. He's got a Mystery Science
37:45
Theater 3000 poster. He's got a They Live poster.
37:49
He's got not. Of the living dead, Yeah, he's
37:53
got a Repo Man poster like he's got he's got good taste.
37:57
I like this guy. Yeah, he's so.
37:59
And he's like, I floated your pants.
38:01
I didn't know if this material wrinkled.
38:03
What? That's so sweet.
38:05
Yeah, it was like leatherish. So I don't know.
38:07
It doesn't. It's like a spandex type thing.
38:09
It probably would have been fine, OK, honestly.
38:12
Yeah, but she thinks that he took advantage of her.
38:14
So she storms out and he's got his roommate, Brisson.
38:18
He's like, yo, did you get that fine vagina?
38:21
Which is a sentence only somebody who's never seen a
38:23
vagina would say. Yeah.
38:25
Well, clearly, yeah. The closest he has been to a
38:28
vagina is when he was came out of his mother's.
38:31
Yes, yes, Most likely yes. So Tree starts her walk of
38:35
shame, I wrote. It would be a walk of shame if
38:38
she had any. OK, yeah, that's true.
38:43
So OK, we take note of a couple of things here.
38:46
Whenever she's walking goth guy. Goth Guy?
38:49
Yeah, so it's staring at her. Yeah, which I don't understand.
38:51
I don't get that. Like, have you never seen that
38:54
type of shit before? Is it that outlandish for
38:56
somebody to be walking back from somebody's dorm room?
39:00
I don't get it. Maybe he's like trying to put
39:02
the shame in the walk of shame. Yeah, I think he's like, I'm
39:05
kicking it off. Your shame.
39:06
Yeah, you're Sequin Tank Top Shame.
39:08
Shame. Shame.
39:10
Just whispers. Shame.
39:12
Yeah, shame. There's the girl who is trying
39:17
to get people to send a petition to end global warming.
39:19
Yes, we've got sprinklers that come on and disrupt a couple on
39:24
the grass. Yep, smooching over there.
39:26
Which good. They're gross.
39:28
Yeah, we don't need to see that in public first thing in the
39:30
morning. Yeah.
39:32
Shame, shame, shame, shame. Stay in your dorm room.
39:33
Do that in private. We got frat Bros out there doing
39:36
some hazing. Yeah, with one of them
39:38
collapsing on the ground. Yep.
39:40
And then we got a car alarm. Yep.
39:42
And by the way, this is all a Monday morning.
39:44
Yeah. So I just, I want to.
39:46
I want to set the scene. If you're like a typical weekend
39:49
shenanigans. No.
39:50
No. So, and then as she's walking
39:53
back, Tim comes out from behind the corner, which is creepy time
39:58
we watched Tim. I'm like, I clearly know him
40:01
from somewhere. And you know what?
40:03
I don't, I don't know him from anything.
40:04
He's. Kind of got that face where he
40:06
looks like you would know him. He looks like he could be one of
40:08
the Dickey dollar scholars. He really does.
40:10
Yeah, they should both do screen Queens.
40:12
If they get renewed for a third season, they would fit in
40:15
perfectly, yes. And then he's like, OK, why have
40:19
you not been answering my text? Yeah, he's like, I wanted to
40:21
take you on a second date and she goes, we barely had a first
40:23
date. You took me to subway and it's
40:24
not like you have a foot long, which that line was improvised
40:28
by Jessica Roth. You know what?
40:30
Good for her. I can't believe that they didn't
40:33
think to add that in the script, I know, but it's a pretty good.
40:35
Yeah. So she makes it back to her
40:38
dorm. Also, what did the riders have
40:40
against Subway to specifically call out Subway?
40:44
I think maybe Jessica had a problem with them, so she makes
40:49
it back to the Kappa house. She ignores the Vietnamese girl
40:53
that is sitting outside listening to music.
40:55
So cute and listening to her music and smiling at everybody
40:57
as they come in and everybody ignores her and.
41:00
I feel bad for her. She walks in and then Danielle
41:04
comes in and is like. Sneaky little biatch.
41:07
Yeah, I love that she does that delivery.
41:09
Every time you sneaky little biatch.
41:11
Yeah. And she's like, who is he?
41:13
And she's like nobody. And she's like, don't forget
41:15
about the house meeting at lunch, which, sorry, I'm going
41:18
to jump ahead for a second. Their house meeting is going to
41:20
be outside and like a quad. Yeah, it's not a good.
41:24
How, like, how are you going to have an effective meeting when
41:26
everybody's spread out in these tables that are bolted to the
41:30
ground? Bolted to the ground for good
41:32
reason, because it's not impossible.
41:37
That some undergrads would get drunk and decide to flip tables
41:41
and rearrange them on a patio. Who would do that?
41:44
So she goes back up into her room and that's when Lori.
41:47
She finally rolls in. Yeah, Lori's piss.
41:51
Yeah. And she's like, but I've got a
41:52
cupcake for you. Yeah.
41:54
And that's what, cupcake. Yeah, she's like, did you think
41:56
I wouldn't find out? I rummaged through your shit and
41:59
found your driver's license. This big red flag.
42:03
Yeah, like, come on. If you are looking at the
42:06
driver's license to try and figure out the person's birthday
42:08
and you didn't find it in an organic way, that is serial
42:11
killer shit. Right, right.
42:13
Like that should have been the first clue for suspect list #1.
42:17
Lori looked at my driver's license.
42:19
My driver's license and baked a single cupcake.
42:24
That's also serial killer behavior.
42:26
And yes, I know Kristen Wiig does that in Bridesmaids.
42:28
I'm not saying that she's not a serial killer.
42:30
She could be very much. Yeah.
42:32
Yeah, bullshit. But trees like, fuck that.
42:36
Too many calories. That's not Kappa cuisine.
42:38
Too many carbs, Too many carbs. Same thing.
42:41
Yeah, so they're at their house meeting and they're fat shaming
42:46
Becky, who is by no means fat and just wants to eat her
42:50
chocolate milk. And I don't know what else is on
42:52
her plate. Fries.
42:53
Yeah, and other shit, You know, good, good food.
42:56
Yeah. And so while they're busy
42:58
berating her, I think at one point Tree refers to it as a cat
43:01
lady buffet. Yeah, that's what they call it.
43:03
Yeah. Which sounds like a Chanel.
43:06
Carter like Becky, stands up embarrassed and Carter, like
43:10
bumps into her and spills chocolate milk all over tree.
43:12
And he's like, I wanted to return your bracelet and what a
43:16
douchebag. Yeah, what an absolute asshole.
43:20
Doing a nice thing for you, yeah.
43:24
Tree goes to class briefly. That's it.
43:29
Yeah. There's nothing to it other than
43:30
her making fuck me as at the professor, and him
43:33
reciprocating, which we then cut to the hospital where he works
43:37
and she's meeting with him. Which it's also important to
43:40
note that her roommates there and she's like, I thought you
43:42
only work tonight and she was like, oh, I'm doing a double
43:44
picking up for somebody. I don't know which I question
43:48
that because most nursing shifts are 12 hours.
43:51
Yeah. Well, I mean, she's trying.
43:53
Unless she means that she's like picking up like an additional
43:57
like 4 hours at the beginning of the day.
43:59
She definitely she did it herself for sure.
44:01
Yeah, we'll find out later. Yeah, but she warns Tree.
44:04
She's like, you know what? None of my business.
44:06
But don't go through with it. Don't go and see him, man.
44:09
Tree's like, you know what? You're right.
44:11
It's not your business. She proceeds to go see him.
44:14
Which I'm just gonna say this is kind of hot.
44:17
She goes into his office and she starts making out and she kicks
44:19
the chair without even looking and it blocks the door handle.
44:23
That is cool. Yeah, I kind of see her.
44:25
Laurie's crushes. It's not the first time she's
44:28
done. So yeah, they're getting hot and
44:31
steamy in there. They're making out.
44:33
It's kind of gross, cuz that's her professor.
44:35
Yeah. And then what do you know?
44:36
Yeah, he's fucking taking advantage of her, yeah.
44:39
I don't care that she's a grown adult.
44:40
He's in a position of power over her.
44:42
Yeah, it's her professor. Yeah.
44:43
It's not cool. It's icky, but his wife shows
44:47
up. Yeah, And she kind of senses
44:49
weird vibes. He's like, well, what do you
44:51
know, Door jamb, whatever. Yeah, that's.
44:53
Why? It probably smells like his pre
44:55
cum in there. By that point he's stanking all
44:59
over the place. She knows the smell.
45:03
I got a very unique type of scent.
45:07
So yeah, tree gets out of there cuz she feels uncomfortable.
45:10
Yeah, so she's back at her room. And she's painting her toenails.
45:15
And Danielle is asking when she's going to the party.
45:18
She says that she borrowed trees top and I legit thought that
45:22
this is like a pajama top. It is ugly as hell.
45:25
Yeah, I thought it was like a like a robe type deal.
45:28
Yeah, way around the house for comfort.
45:30
Yeah, yeah, it's really weird. So.
45:33
And then the power surges for a minute.
45:35
Our tuition dollars at work, yeah.
45:38
Spoken by somebody who's probably never worked in her
45:40
life. No, I'm sure she.
45:42
Hasn't, yeah. She walks to the party alone,
45:47
and she is listening to an angry voicemail from her dad because
45:51
he's sat at the restaurant alone for an hour, which is sad.
45:55
That's very sad. And she goes to, she goes to
45:59
this tunnel and is like blocked off with stuff like seeing like
46:02
lines down or lines overhead or so.
46:04
I don't know. They're doing construction.
46:05
I don't understand. Yeah, They're like, why?
46:07
It's flashing, but there's like no sign of anything being great.
46:10
So maybe it's the the bridge above.
46:13
Yeah, I don't know. Either way, there's a, like,
46:15
weird little toy. It's a music box.
46:17
Music box. OK Yeah.
46:18
I didn't know what to call it. Yeah.
46:19
It's like a little carousel thing, though.
46:21
Yeah. And it's like playing Happy
46:22
Birthday and she's a little bit freaked out.
46:26
I mean, she should be because Baby Face pops up behind her.
46:30
They have a little chase scene which ends with her getting
46:33
stabbed in the face. And then she wakes up.
46:37
And yesterday, she's a little bit nicer to Carter.
46:41
This time she says kind of the same things, but she's a lot
46:43
nicer. Like, she's like Carter, right?
46:46
Do you have any Tylenol? My head's killing me.
46:48
Like, same things, different delivery.
46:51
Yeah. And she's very confused.
46:55
She's like, how did I wind up here again?
46:58
And he was like, maybe you just had a bad dream.
47:01
She's on her way back to the house.
47:03
She's a little bit nicer to people as she sees she's seeing
47:06
all of the same things that happened.
47:07
The goth guy, the sprinklers, the frat guys, the car alarm and
47:11
then the Tim hiding behind the pillar and she asked him what
47:14
day is it? And he's like it's Monday the
47:16
18th, which freaks her out. Yeah, So she goes back to Kappa
47:20
House and then everything's still playing out the same.
47:23
Danielle was like you, stinky little bee hatch, And then she
47:26
notices baby face masks. Yeah.
47:32
She leaves Laurie's cupcake on her desk at the house meeting
47:38
when she, like Carter, disrupts everything.
47:41
He's about to walk away. And she goes hold on and she,
47:43
like, holds out her hand. Yeah, it's like, what?
47:44
And she's like, you have my bracelet and he's like, ohh
47:47
yeah, that I can understand. She's like, well, he must have
47:50
it. I can get that one.
47:52
Yeah, maybe, yeah. At the hospital, the professor,
47:56
she just tells the professor that they need to talk and he's
47:58
like, listen. You can't fall in love with me.
48:02
And she's like, oh, I'm. I'm not And he's like what?
48:04
But but but like what if? Yeah, that hurt his ego in a way
48:10
that I am so glad. Yeah, that was a fun watch.
48:14
So she's back in her room. She's watching birthday videos
48:17
of her and her mom and her dad. Yeah, that's really sad.
48:21
And then she walks to the party again, but this time she goes a
48:24
different. Way she avoids the tunnel, yeah.
48:26
When she gets the house, it is dark and quiet, which I don't
48:29
care if it's a surprise party. There's no way of frat house
48:32
that size is gonna be dark and quiet when there's a party going
48:34
on. No, not at.
48:35
Are you kidding me? Yeah.
48:37
And then she opens the door and babyface right there in her
48:39
face. Punches it.
48:41
This is why I love Tree. She was like, she takes
48:44
information and she immediately processes it.
48:46
And she was like, all right, not making the same mistake twice.
48:49
Punch. Yeah, but turns out to be Nick.
48:53
Yeah, who is just trying to surprise her.
48:55
And then the whole house is filled with the sorority and the
48:58
frat. Yeah, so it's a surprise party
49:01
for her because Lori ratted her out to the whole group and she's
49:07
talking to Danielle and Nick comes up and Danielle is like,
49:13
so. So try hard to get his
49:16
attention, like she's laughing way too hard on his not funny
49:20
jokes and like falling all over herself for his attention.
49:23
Meanwhile he's flirting with tree like, yeah, because she's
49:26
like, sorry I punished you. He's like, you can make it up to
49:28
me later, hey? Yeah, yeah.
49:31
So they kind of make little, you know, fuck me.
49:34
Eyes across the room, he kind of hints that he's going upstairs.
49:38
So she follows. Yeah.
49:39
Ohh, Danielle does drop the knowledge like she was like, I
49:42
can't believe Laurie's not here and she was like, ohh, she's
49:45
working a double and she goes and she's probably banging that
49:47
mystery guy and she's like, what?
49:51
So up in Nick's room. Pretty sure this is where Tree
49:56
assumes that she did actually die and went to hell because
49:59
it's an EDM disco nightmare. This is whole area.
50:03
I love this here. He's like, welcome to the
50:05
Pleasure Dome. And then he just turns on the
50:07
lights and his fucking EDM, he's over there dancing.
50:10
When he referred to it as the Pleasure Dome, and it only got
50:14
worse when he flipped that switch.
50:16
But do you not know what the Dome is?
50:18
That ain't a fucking Dome. And also that shit right there.
50:22
The dancing is so ridiculous. I I love it though.
50:25
It's so hilarious. If he were, it's.
50:27
Exactly how a guy like him would dance to EDM.
50:29
He could, if he were doing it in a playful manner.
50:32
It could be funny and fun. But no, he is dead.
50:36
He's super into it and I don't think Babyface would have killed
50:39
him. But Babyface comes out the
50:41
closet and it's like, that's so nice.
50:45
Meanwhile tree is. Texting Danielle because she's
50:48
super over this. And Danielle's like, are you
50:50
with him right now? And she's like, what?
50:52
No, never. And Danielle's like, I hope you
50:55
both die. And then the Wishmaster says
50:57
Grudge it so babyface sneaks out from the closet, gets Nick.
51:03
Which tree can't hear any of this?
51:05
Because you. Know the music is so fucking
51:07
loud. Yeah.
51:09
So then attacks tree, and then tree gets pinned to the bed.
51:13
That's when the frat dude comes in.
51:14
Sees what looks to be a date rape situation and then he's
51:18
like, hey, OK. Cheers it on.
51:20
Yeah, really Promotes negative stereotypes, toxic masculinity,
51:24
illegal behavior, you know, all of that.
51:26
And then she dies again. So we're back in Carter's room.
51:30
This time she wakes up gasping. She's very freaked out.
51:33
She goes back to being rude to Carter, but I understand it a
51:36
little bit more this time. Yeah.
51:39
She tells Lori that she's lived through this day twice and
51:43
Lori's like. How about you just take the day
51:46
off? Skip your classes, you know,
51:49
maybe take a nap. The thing is here, I feel she's
51:52
telling her all the things. She's like, OK, you got me a
51:54
cupcake, You got me this, this is.
51:55
I'm going to die tonight. And then it's like, oh shit,
51:58
like I am planning to kill her. Maybe she does know something,
52:02
you know? I wish I could have sensed like
52:03
a little bit of freak out going on in her there.
52:06
But Laurie's got such confused, murderous horniness going on
52:09
that she can't put any of the clues together for herself.
52:12
This might be my chance. So that night, instead of going
52:15
out, tree boards up the room, which, God, their national
52:19
boards are going to be furious with her at the damage in the
52:22
walls. Yeah, but it's a good, you know,
52:26
not doing the chair maneuver. She's straight up like,
52:28
actually. Nailing boards against Where
52:29
does she get the boards and nails?
52:31
I have no fucking idea. She probably took it from
52:33
Laurie's stuff. Why?
52:34
She's such a bad roommate. She's.
52:36
Like, it's weird Laurie has this pile of, like, weapons and
52:40
boards and stuff. I don't know.
52:42
I never would have seen anything coming from her, all this power
52:45
tools and shit. So yeah, she's there, and then
52:49
she's watching the news. And yeah, well, she's watching
52:51
something else I want to say. It's probably like a reality.
52:55
V 16 and pregnant or something. Yeah, something like that.
52:58
Yeah, she's trying to find the remote because she doesn't want
53:02
to watch it again. She's seen this episode three
53:04
Times Now. She can't find the remote, and
53:09
in the midst of looking for it, the TV starts flickering on and
53:13
off. And this is always gonna be a
53:14
trope that will scare me every single time, because you know
53:17
that the danger is really close by, except for nowadays you've
53:21
got like apps for your TV and stuff.
53:23
Like you could realistically fuck with me.
53:25
Oh yeah, for sure. From away from the house, like
53:27
because you've got the app on your phone.
53:29
I've. I've had a thought before where
53:32
I just like in a neighborhood. I look for people's like Wi-Fi
53:35
and the ones that are open, I'll be like, okay, I'm gonna go onto
53:38
your YouTube now and it's gonna take over your TV and I'm gonna
53:40
play some creepy shit. That's way less creepy than the
53:43
people that do that and connect to their cameras.
53:46
That's true too. I'm not gonna do it.
53:48
I'm just saying it's, you know, I think it would be a creepy
53:50
thing to do. But yeah, so it's changing.
53:54
And at one point it flips through the news and says that
53:56
John Tomes is in the hospital after a shootout with cops.
53:59
He's one for the murder of six women and potentially a dozen
54:02
more. So she's getting freaked out and
54:09
she's trying to, like, creep through the room, figure out
54:11
where the person is, and babyface ends up attacking.
54:17
But she can't get out of the room, so they're fighting.
54:20
And of course it ends with a hammer to the head and tree
54:23
waking up screaming. I thought that that was one of
54:25
the more well done order set pieces because they let the
54:29
dread and the tension yes. Really good there.
54:31
That one was done really, really well.
54:33
Yeah. So, and like I said, this is a
54:35
really good way of like getting the pacing of the movie because
54:38
we've seen normal loop. Like normal day.
54:42
Then we see her confused, thinking maybe it's a bad dream.
54:45
And then we see her do the rational route.
54:47
Like, I'm not gonna go to the party tonight.
54:50
I've died the past two times I've tried.
54:52
I'm gonna board my shit up. Yep, But Nope.
54:55
Now we got this, I like how she wakes up here because she's
54:58
wakes up screaming this time and it scares Carter.
55:00
So he just, like, bumps his head.
55:01
On Yeah, it's really funny. He follows her and she's like,
55:06
you have to help me and he. Is like I don't necessarily know
55:11
that I believe you. But if I were to go along with
55:13
it I would say we have to figure out why today's significant.
55:16
And then her phone rings which for somebody that doesn't want
55:20
people to know it's her birthday.
55:22
Why does she have a it's your birthday ringtone.
55:24
I'm gonna pick up the phone. So do you know what's up with
55:29
that? But he's like, it's your
55:31
birthday. And she goes, well, I just don't
55:33
really believe in celebrating birthdays.
55:34
He goes, OK, so then the killer is clearly, like, this is
55:37
significant. So the killer is clearly
55:38
somebody who knows it's your birthday and that has reason to
55:42
be mad at you. And she goes, OK, well, Lori
55:45
told my whole sorority and another fraternity that it's my
55:48
birthday, so they're all planning a party and then she's.
55:51
Yeah, and then she starts listing off people that she's
55:53
pissed off. She's like, I've pissed off
55:55
Danielle. I've pissed off that girl at TJ
55:58
Maxx said. I got fired.
56:00
Yeah, that. Uber driver I spit on Danielle
56:04
Gregory's wife Tim. Creepy guy at or creepy girl at
56:08
TJMaxx, And then the Uber driver.
56:10
Yeah, that she spat on. Yeah.
56:11
Yeah. And then she learns because,
56:14
like, he's a little bit, a little bit sad when he learns
56:18
that she kissed another boy before going home with her.
56:21
And she goes, OK, well, Mr. I'm gonna take advantage of a drunk
56:24
girl. He goes, I slept in Ryan's.
56:26
But you were really drunk. I wouldn't overdo that.
56:28
No. And she.
56:30
Like has a moment where she kind of, like, seems relieved and
56:34
happy to hear again. Tree also has really low
56:37
standards. Just hearing that somebody
56:40
didn't rape you while you were drunk.
56:41
And she's like, oh, well, one of the last times.
56:45
Yeah, that she did that. She, like, had somebody, like,
56:46
rooting for a date rape. Yeah.
56:47
So she's like, OK, this guy is actually not into that.
56:50
That's great. I'm on.
56:51
I got. I found somebody, OK.
56:53
I just. You know, I tell you this all
56:55
the time when I'm reading things like, am I the asshole?
56:57
But like, the bar for men is so fucking low, it's really easy
57:01
not to be shitty. Yeah, so he tells her.
57:05
OK, so look, from the sounds of it, you've got unlimited
57:08
opportunities to find your killers, so you just gotta keep
57:11
going out there and dying until you figure out who it is.
57:14
And you know what we get after that?
57:15
A dying montage is a big Jesse plus right there.
57:21
So she decides that she's gonna make her own suspect list.
57:24
The first one is Nick, who she crosses off because he got
57:27
killed. Yeah, because he got killed the
57:29
night before. Or two nights ago.
57:32
Whatever. This is gonna get tricky, Tim.
57:35
But when she's spying on him, she sees that he's also got
57:38
confused, horny feelings, and perhaps is.
57:42
Not completely heterosexual. Yeah, he's tricking into gay
57:45
porn. Yeah.
57:45
And she's like, in the women, she's like, oh, he's gay.
57:49
And she seems pretty supportive of it.
57:50
Yeah. Yeah, Stephanie, which is
57:54
Gregory's wife. But while she's spying on
57:56
Stephanie, she gets killed so she can cross her off.
57:59
Yeah, which but the I guess that does confirm it.
58:03
Then yeah, yeah, yeah. I had that moment too where I
58:06
was like, well, we didn't see Stephanie die because that's
58:08
what had been going on for the other ones.
58:10
So I was like, oh, no, she was. She was actively not doing the
58:13
killing when she died. So and then we have Danielle,
58:17
who Tree just comes up screaming at.
58:20
They get into a fight, get hit by a car, both die.
58:22
Yeah, yeah, like right by a bus is like final destination.
58:27
I do like that she's having some fun as she's going along with
58:32
it, which you know, if you've got unlimited days to do what
58:36
you want, like she. Guys, her hair pink, she goes
58:43
naked in the quad. She actually went full blown
58:46
naked when she was shooting that.
58:48
Really. Yeah.
58:49
She's no pasties or anything, she said.
58:51
She wanted to feel the rush that the character would.
58:53
I also want to say. This is the only time in the
58:56
movie that she pulls her hair back into a ponytail.
58:58
She's got beautiful bone structure in her face.
59:01
She looks nice, like she can rock a ponytail.
59:04
And also when they were shooting us, I was reading like they were
59:06
shooting this on an actual college campus.
59:08
So they had to be really fast because other people could see
59:12
her like just doing it so. This is like, what's his face?
59:16
Dwayne in basket case? Yeah, just running down.
59:19
New York. Yeah.
59:20
Yep. Let's see what's next, Okay.
59:24
And then she gets brained by Becky.
59:27
Really. No brains.
59:29
Becky with the bat. And then she ends up getting.
59:32
Yeah cuz she was trying to pop out at who she thought was the
59:36
killer. And then it was Becky.
59:37
She goes oh God Becky, I'm so sorry.
59:39
Poor Becky. Can't catch a fucking brain.
59:41
Yeah, she gets the worst of all of this.
59:44
So yeah, then she wakes up, and then she starts to feel the pain
59:47
from all the stuff. Yeah, and she passes out into
59:51
Ryan's arms, which I feel so bad for her for that.
59:54
Yes, she wakes up in the hospital for a second, cuz she's
59:58
probably under some sort of sedation a little bit too.
1:00:01
She thinks that Carter is babyface, but he's not.
1:00:04
He's Carter. He's like, they can't contact
1:00:07
your parents and he's like talking to her.
1:00:10
But then Gregory comes in and kicks him out, so his visiting
1:00:12
hours are over. So Gregory is like, we need to
1:00:17
pull your medical records, but we're having a hard time.
1:00:20
And Tree is like, what's going on?
1:00:21
He goes, well, you are pretty fucked up and I don't know why
1:00:27
you're alive. Yeah, you should be dead, right?
1:00:29
Now you have major trauma. Like I I want your medical
1:00:32
records so I can write about this and publish it in a medical
1:00:36
journal. I want to continue to use you
1:00:38
for my own game, you know, So she, like, she freaks out.
1:00:44
She wants to get up and leave. And he's like, you obviously
1:00:46
can't right now. I don't know how you're alive.
1:00:49
I need to emphasize that. And she's like, all right, well,
1:00:52
I'm really thirsty. Can you go get me a soda?
1:00:56
So he goes to get her soda and she sneaks out and she goes to
1:00:59
his office. But on the way there, she
1:01:01
notices that the security guy that's guarding tombs is
1:01:05
missing. Yeah, and if you pay really
1:01:08
close attention, you can see a little bit of blood splatter on
1:01:10
the window. Yeah, I didn't catch that.
1:01:11
Yeah, okay. So she gets into his office and
1:01:17
she's trying to look for his car keys, and while she's looking,
1:01:19
she finds a baby face mask in his drawer.
1:01:22
So gotta say here, there's a deleted scene that happens right
1:01:25
here, so she thinks that it's him that's the killer and she
1:01:29
leaves the office and finds Gregory and then confronts him
1:01:33
about it. Which he denies.
1:01:35
And then you see the babyface killer behind him in another
1:01:38
door, and then he goes to investigate it and he ends up
1:01:41
dying. Yeah, but in this version, she
1:01:46
just sees him getting stabbed by Babyface.
1:01:48
So she goes running, ends up being chased into the parking
1:01:53
garage, and she's like hiding behind some cars.
1:01:56
And she hits a little fob and it makes his Mercedes go off, which
1:02:02
gives away her location. But she gets into the car just
1:02:04
in time and she fucks up somebody else's car.
1:02:07
And Babyface is smart, moves out of the way.
1:02:09
So Babyface can't be run over and she drives off and she's so
1:02:13
fucking excited and she's like. She goes full Jesse Pinkman in
1:02:17
the final episode of Breaking Yes.
1:02:19
Yes, she is having a good time until the cop pulls her over.
1:02:25
And it. I don't blame the cop for being
1:02:27
like, what are you on? Because she's in a gown so she
1:02:32
doesn't have her license because she didn't have time to grab it
1:02:36
because she didn't die this time.
1:02:40
It's making sense. She's like somebody's trying to
1:02:42
kill me. I get that.
1:02:43
Maybe investigate that, but she's like, OK, well, if I'm on
1:02:47
something. Do I get to go to jail?
1:02:49
She realizes if she gets to go to jail, she'll be able to
1:02:51
survive. Yeah, she'll be locked up in a
1:02:53
little cell. She'll be around cops.
1:02:56
We've seen other horror movies and know that that doesn't
1:02:58
always work. But she's hopeful she Even if
1:03:00
she's wrong, she'll just wake up again.
1:03:03
What if she ended up in the cell from malignant where like shit
1:03:07
goes. Oh my God I would love to see
1:03:09
that real that crossover. I want this to be like a
1:03:12
multiverse here where. Like all of them are in there.
1:03:15
Yes, that would be great. But yeah, the cop is
1:03:18
flabbergasted because you know who's in the cell next door?
1:03:21
Doug Bradley. Ohh in Ron turn 5.
1:03:24
Ah, that's soof. You know what?
1:03:27
I don't know that I don't want a tree to have that fate.
1:03:30
No, absolutely not. So yeah, the copper ruster puts
1:03:33
her in the back of the car and then as he's about to get in
1:03:35
there, babyface runs him over. Yeah, it's pretty intense, yeah.
1:03:39
And then Babyface comes over and starts to walk up to the car and
1:03:43
she can't get out because she's the backseat.
1:03:44
It's a cop car. That's how it works.
1:03:45
And handcuffs and handcuffed. And babyface turns around and
1:03:49
she thinks that's weird. And then she sees, she sees them
1:03:52
hold out a little birthday candle and drop it to the
1:03:55
ground. And it turns out that the car
1:03:57
was leaking gas. Yeah, so she gets her one PG13
1:04:01
fuck right here when she realizes she's about to explode.
1:04:04
And it's a great explosion. And when this happens, Zoe ran
1:04:07
to the TV. She wanted to be right up close
1:04:09
to it. She was.
1:04:10
So she had been laying on my lap.
1:04:12
And then she just runs over there and she's.
1:04:14
Like, I gotta say, this is the coolest part of the movie
1:04:17
though. When this happens, it's so
1:04:18
awesome. This morning, this next morning,
1:04:23
she decides to have a little fun with Carter.
1:04:26
She's like silence. She's very friendly with him.
1:04:30
Ryan tries to come in and she says you need to stop referring
1:04:33
to women as fine vagina and otherwise you and your hand are
1:04:36
going to be getting a lot closer and.
1:04:37
Then she thinks them three times is like, naughty boy, that's a
1:04:40
different one. That's the next one.
1:04:41
Yeah, OK She Carter wants to know what's happening.
1:04:47
And she, you know, as they walk through the quad, she is like
1:04:51
predicting the events as they're happening.
1:04:53
They go to get food and she talks about the stranded
1:04:56
relationship with her dad. She says that her mom passed
1:04:59
away three years ago and they had the same birthday and they
1:05:02
used to take her out of school and they'd all go to the beach
1:05:06
and they'd get one cake to share and one single candle that they
1:05:09
would blow out together. And it's just God.
1:05:14
It's sad. It's really sad.
1:05:16
Yeah. It puts more perspective on the
1:05:18
whole situation. Why She doesn't want to exactly,
1:05:21
Yeah. But.
1:05:22
Yeah, it's just a bummer of a story right there.
1:05:24
Yeah. But as all that's happening, we
1:05:26
get the new story that is playing that she sees before and
1:05:30
she gets more of the details this time.
1:05:31
So Tombs is a serial killer that his victim of choice is a lot
1:05:38
like tree young blonde women. Yeah, So she figures it's him
1:05:43
because she's seen him at the hospital.
1:05:44
So she runs to the hospital and she tells the nursing assistant
1:05:47
at the desk to call the cops. She's like, he's going to get
1:05:50
loose. He's going to get loose.
1:05:51
She goes to Tombs's room. There's no cop outside, and when
1:05:54
she gets in there, there's no Tombs in the bed.
1:05:56
She does see a dead cop by the bed and then Tombs comes out and
1:06:01
he has a baby face mask and a knife.
1:06:06
She had grabbed the gun from the cop's body, and no babyface had
1:06:13
grabbed the gun from the cop's body In this loop.
1:06:15
Yeah, this is all confusing. So Tombs shoots at her.
1:06:19
Carter comes up, he appears out of nowhere and he tackles Tombs.
1:06:24
And Tree is obviously emotional seeing Carter there.
1:06:29
So Tombs is sadistic and breaks his fucking neck.
1:06:32
Yeah. And then she she goes running,
1:06:38
she's in a stairwell and she attacks teams that she's gonna
1:06:41
go for the final blow. And then she's like, if I don't
1:06:44
reset the day, Carter's gone forever, and then she does a
1:06:47
full Gwen Stacy on herself. Goes all the way to the top and
1:06:50
hangs herself. And I have to ask, what the fuck
1:06:52
is this? Would this type of stairwell be
1:06:55
in a hospital? Not through like casual access.
1:06:59
Yeah, I just. I don't understand.
1:07:01
It would probably be like a maintenance only badge
1:07:03
situation. Yeah, I It's weird.
1:07:06
But you know what? Whatever.
1:07:07
She kills herself, she's like, OK, I'm gonna go save Carter.
1:07:09
I know who it is. I got everything figured out,
1:07:11
yeah. And this is where she has her
1:07:13
good day. Yeah, she approaches it with
1:07:15
confidence and she's happy and treating everybody nicely.
1:07:17
Yeah, she borrows Carter's pillow, so when she goes
1:07:20
outside, she takes look off, guys, sunglasses and she's
1:07:23
friendly with him. Signs the petition, warns the
1:07:25
kids about the sprinkler, puts the pillow down for the frat guy
1:07:28
to fall on. She sees Tim and she's like,
1:07:31
listen, I know you're gay and that's great.
1:07:34
You should go find a guy you wanna be with instead of falling
1:07:37
after me. Yeah, it's not pretending to be
1:07:39
into something that you're not. And he looks kind of relieved,
1:07:42
kind of relieved. And that's a nice moment she
1:07:46
gets. She is nice to little Vietnamese
1:07:49
sister sitting out front who looks really happy to have
1:07:52
somebody like, acknowledge her for once.
1:07:55
Yeah, She tells Danielle that his name is Carter.
1:07:59
And if I get through this day, I'm gonna have his babies.
1:08:01
That's a why after one night, from Danielle's perspective,
1:08:04
from Danielle's perspective, I get it from Tree's perspective.
1:08:07
Yeah, I get it. Yeah, she goes up to her room
1:08:09
and she apologized to Lori. She's like, I've always been so
1:08:12
mean to you and you've always been there for me and just so
1:08:14
kind. Always like, Oh my God, are we
1:08:16
that the fuck? Oh no.
1:08:19
She goes to her class and interrupts it and says, hey
1:08:22
Doctor Butler, will you come out here for a minute?
1:08:25
And then she breaks up with him and he's like, don't even think
1:08:29
that I'm going to let you coast by my class anymore.
1:08:31
And she's like, I already dropped it.
1:08:34
Then she shows up to the house meeting with food and stands up
1:08:39
for Becky and pours chocolate milk on Danielle.
1:08:42
Becky's chocolate milk. Becky's chocolate milk.
1:08:45
By the way, you don't need this, But really.
1:08:48
Yeah. She goes to dinner with her dad
1:08:51
and they have like an actual real talk.
1:08:53
Like you can tell they're used to like the small talk cuz like
1:08:56
how are your classes? And she's like, I don't wanna do
1:08:57
this. I wanna like actually talk to
1:08:59
you. And that's a good, like moment
1:09:02
that they both clearly need it. Yeah.
1:09:04
They both, just, like, are upfront about the mom and how it
1:09:07
sucks that she's not there and they don't get to celebrate it
1:09:10
at the hospital. She makes a bold move, assuming
1:09:13
that she's going to live through the day.
1:09:15
Oh yeah. Holding a security guard.
1:09:17
Yeah, it's not a security guard. This is a full blown cop.
1:09:19
OK, yeah, she like, holds a knife to his neck, takes his gun
1:09:22
and then holds him at gunpoint. And he's like, OK, you go get
1:09:25
your friends, go get the rest of the cops, go get your buddies.
1:09:28
Yeah, he's like, OK, this is backwards, but sure, when she
1:09:31
goes into the room, it's very clear that his restraints are
1:09:35
undone, but she gets way too close anyway.
1:09:39
And she's like, I know you're awake.
1:09:40
And when he wakes up she tries to shoot Safety's on so he
1:09:43
knocks the gun out of her hand. Yep.
1:09:46
Oh, by the way, before all this, she set her alarm on her.
1:09:50
She set a timer on her. Yeah, watch for 30 minutes.
1:09:53
Yeah, we don't know what it is just yet.
1:09:55
Yeah, but as he like, comes out, he attacks her.
1:09:59
He's pretty vicious. She tries to get him with a
1:10:01
knife and just barely misses and gets the door.
1:10:03
And he was like, it's a shame because I really like you.
1:10:07
And then she was like, uh oh cuz her alarm goes off and that's
1:10:12
when the blackout happened. And she ducks behind him, grabs
1:10:15
the gun and says safety's off this time.
1:10:17
Boom, Tombs is dead. Yep.
1:10:19
All right. At the house, she has a nice
1:10:22
little mullet with Carter. This is their first real date
1:10:25
and they're gonna share a cupcake and it's gonna be a nice
1:10:27
night. And then she wakes up back on
1:10:30
Monday the 18th. Yep.
1:10:33
And she is a distraught. And she goes to her room and she
1:10:37
starts packing stuff And Laurie is like, what's up?
1:10:40
And she goes, I thought that if I stopped running that
1:10:42
everything would be OK. But you know what?
1:10:43
That didn't work. Being being a nice person is for
1:10:45
the birds, man. And then she was like, she was
1:10:49
saying something and she said something about the cupcake.
1:10:51
And she was like, I've never eaten the cupcake before.
1:10:55
And also, you work at the hospital, so you've been
1:10:57
releasing tombs in case I didn't eat the cupcake, because you
1:11:01
knew that if I was killed while he was loose, people would just
1:11:04
blame him. Yep.
1:11:05
And so she ate the cupcake and died in her sleep last night.
1:11:09
Yeah, so they are fighting. She's mad that Tree is sleeping
1:11:16
with Gregory, and Gregory is choosing her over Lori and Tree
1:11:21
is like, this is over a fucking guy.
1:11:23
She doesn't say fucking because she already had her one.
1:11:25
Fuck, but. Yeah, I think we get another one
1:11:28
here because. Lori says no, that's not all.
1:11:31
It's also because you're a fucking bitch.
1:11:33
And then she. You're a dumb bitch.
1:11:35
You're. A dumb bitch.
1:11:36
OK, never mind. Only one.
1:11:37
Fuck yeah. OK, so fight continues.
1:11:41
Treat The upper hand slams that cupcake into Lori's mouth, and
1:11:45
Lori immediately panics. Which I'm like, what poison did
1:11:49
you use? Girl like, super effective.
1:11:51
Yeah, like, she's like scraping her mouth out.
1:11:53
And then a tree like grabs the light fixture and kicks Lori out
1:11:58
of the window and traumatizes that cute little Vietnamese girl
1:12:01
out front. Like in this reality, she is now
1:12:04
traumatized, this poor girl. So yeah, everything's fine.
1:12:08
We cut to her and Carter having dinner again.
1:12:12
Mmhmm. They watched Danielle on the
1:12:14
news, making it all about her. Yeah, yeah, it's really funny.
1:12:17
I also love that trope in movies where it's like a completely
1:12:22
full of them self person making a tragedy about themselves on
1:12:25
the news. Yeah, She gets a call from her
1:12:29
dad. She's like, it's OK, it's OK,
1:12:31
you know, we'll talk, we'll meet up.
1:12:32
So that's good. So they also outright
1:12:34
acknowledge the comparison. The Groundhog, yeah, he was
1:12:36
like, your whole thing reminds me of Groundhog Day.
1:12:38
And she's like what? He's like, you know, Bill Murray
1:12:40
and she's like, I don't know who that is.
1:12:42
He goes Ghostbusters. And in this moment, I relate to
1:12:44
Carter more than anything because I feel like that's me
1:12:46
talking to. Yeah, Yeah.
1:12:49
So wake up again in Carter's bedroom and she's back in that
1:12:52
shirt. He's.
1:12:54
It is, sure. Yeah.
1:12:56
He's in his little wardrobe. He's like, oh, I folded your
1:12:59
pants and she like, starts to panic and goes, I'm fucking with
1:13:01
you, yeah. Which that's like a bold move
1:13:04
right there, man. That's like she's been through a
1:13:06
lot of shit right there. But you know what?
1:13:08
She lets us go. I that's that's Tuesday.
1:13:10
I like it better than the alternate ending which we will
1:13:12
briefly recap for you guys. So they saw the time loop.
1:13:15
Whatever wakes up in the hospital, and her dad and Carter
1:13:20
are there. And they're like you saw of the
1:13:22
murder. Yay.
1:13:23
Everything's good. I'm glad you're not dead.
1:13:27
And then a doctor comes in. Not Gregory.
1:13:31
Thank God. Not a doctor.
1:13:33
Not a doctor. Wife of a doctor.
1:13:35
It's Okay. My husband's a doctor.
1:13:36
No, no cuz there is a doctor in there 1st and she's like I'm in
1:13:38
a lot of pain and he's like well I can't give you pain medicine
1:13:41
in your current state which I feel like is not real.
1:13:45
Yeah, well, that's when you give the pain.
1:13:48
It's like you've been like, oh, we just gave you like a really
1:13:51
high dose of, like, Dilaudid. Then I understand why they can't
1:13:56
give her more. Yeah, but that's not the case.
1:13:59
He's just like no pain medicine until you stop hurting as much.
1:14:02
Yeah. So yeah, they're like, OK, no
1:14:04
medicine for you. They walk out, then another one
1:14:06
comes in, closes the curtains around her bed and trees.
1:14:11
She's pulling up a syringe full of some red liquid and trees
1:14:15
like, Oh no, the doctor just said no medicine.
1:14:19
And the nurse pulls off her face mask and it's actually Stephanie
1:14:22
Butler. And she's like, this medicine
1:14:24
isn't for you, it's for me. And then she puts it in her IV
1:14:29
and then tree dies. And then that's the fucking end
1:14:32
of the movie there, yeah? Like we see her die, and then
1:14:34
it's just like, boom, yeah, credits roll.
1:14:37
It's so freaky, man. Like that.
1:14:39
That's good for a horror ending. If you wanted to be creepy, if
1:14:42
you wanted to end on a creepy note, I would have liked that.
1:14:44
But the one that we get, it's more of an uplifting quite
1:14:47
harder than I do. Like the idea of potentially all
1:14:50
of the people on her suspect list, like she just, she gets
1:14:53
through one day and then she has to live through another.
1:14:55
Where somebody else on her suspect list is like trying to
1:14:57
murder her. Yeah, like that would be a good
1:14:59
way to just have continuous sequels.
1:15:01
True. But you know what?
1:15:02
They did this so they could keep the sequel going.
1:15:04
Yeah, she can't die. So there is a death day too.
1:15:07
Plus, it just it feels like there's a purpose.
1:15:10
With the ending, we got it like it wasn't all for nothing.
1:15:13
Yeah, I guess you could. It would piss people off, maybe
1:15:16
seeing her just die like that at the end.
1:15:18
I'm not. I don't have a problem with
1:15:22
nihilistic endings of movies, you know, like, OK, yeah, shit's
1:15:25
bleak sometimes, but like, the tone of this movie, I feel like
1:15:29
that wouldn't have really fit, you know?
1:15:30
Yeah, it's, yeah, like. Christopher Landon said it was
1:15:34
like supposed to be a feel good movie and that's not a feel good
1:15:37
ending right now. Absolutely not.
1:15:39
It it is an immediate buzzkill of the situation.
1:15:42
Yeah, for sure. So yeah, that's the end.
1:15:46
That's the end of the movie. All right.
1:15:49
Are you changing your rating? I think I've been bumping up to
1:15:51
a nine. OK?
1:15:52
I really like this fucking movie.
1:15:56
I think I'll bump my into, I'll do, I'll do 8.5, cuz yeah, I
1:16:01
mean this is a really good movie.
1:16:02
It's not a unique concept, but I think that it's it's well done.
1:16:06
It's well done. I think it's the first time that
1:16:08
we've seen it done in this genre and I like having that for this
1:16:14
in a slasher because I think that, like I said before, it's
1:16:16
just a fun way to tell that type of story.
1:16:18
Is there anything you would change about it?
1:16:23
Well, you know. I'd say I I would like for it to
1:16:28
be 5050 horror comedy. This one, I feel like it's more
1:16:32
it's 75 comedy, 25 horror. OK, so a little bit more of
1:16:36
moments like that. The bedroom scene.
1:16:40
Yeah, yeah. Cuz I think it would be cool to
1:16:41
like, you know, you're selling, it's a horror comedy.
1:16:44
But you know, like, I I want more horror because that's what
1:16:46
really pulled me in to begin with.
1:16:48
Well, our average went up half a point.
1:16:50
OK, so that's good. Talia wanted to go outside at 17
1:16:55
minutes and 56 seconds. She threw a tantrum at one
1:17:00
point. A full tantrum.
1:17:01
She knocked all of her toys and blankets and one of the couch
1:17:04
cushions to the floor. Yeah, cuz she wasn't getting the
1:17:07
attention. I didn't even notice that you
1:17:09
like you told me. It's like quote behind you.
1:17:11
And then I turned around and the entire cushion was gone.
1:17:14
It's just gone. I don't know how she did that.
1:17:17
So I think because she wanted to go out so early on, she knew
1:17:21
that it was a time loop situation.
1:17:23
So she was like, it's fine. I'll see this again.
1:17:25
Yeah, very. Like she's she's seen those
1:17:26
before. So she's like, yeah, that's
1:17:28
fine. And then she threw the tantrum
1:17:30
because Tree was like having to die so many times and couldn't
1:17:34
figure it out. The murder, she was really
1:17:35
rooting for her. So I think Talia likes that this
1:17:37
movie is a movie that, you know, you don't have to pay super
1:17:40
close attention to and that there are real stakes to it.
1:17:44
So I think Talia gives us an 8. OK, I agree with that Talia.
1:17:48
Like this one. Despite the tantrum.
1:17:50
Despite the tantrum, she's she was frustrated on behalf of
1:17:53
Tree. She's like, man, this shit
1:17:54
again. Yeah, OK.
1:17:56
And Zoe, Zoe watched it, obviously.
1:17:58
Yeah, she was living for the. She was super into it.
1:18:01
Yeah, that explosion really, really got her.
1:18:04
Yeah, that's so excited about. It took it from A9 to A10 right
1:18:08
there at the moment. All right.
1:18:10
So who did you relate to? Who didn't relate to?
1:18:18
There's not a lot of like. Not a lot of characters.
1:18:21
Like I said, you know, you don't get a like, you get a lot of
1:18:23
people, but you don't really get any indepth like
1:18:27
characterizations of most of these people.
1:18:29
It's very surface level. I guess I probably would relate
1:18:32
the most to Carter, like nerdy posters, not taking advantage of
1:18:36
drunk people folding the pants so that way the material doesn't
1:18:39
wrinkle, referencing movies that you have no idea about.
1:18:46
Yeah, you know. Yeah, man.
1:18:50
OK, that's tough shit. Let's see.
1:18:59
I don't know. Yeah, I I feel like it's either
1:19:01
gotta be Carter or Tree. You know what I mean?
1:19:03
Yeah. Tree's such a shitty person.
1:19:05
I don't really relate to a lot of the stuff that we see most of
1:19:08
her from. You know what I mean?
1:19:10
Yeah, I mean, I guess I would have to say, Carter also for a
1:19:13
lot of the same things that you did this.
1:19:16
Not fun as that might be. OK, so after that, do we have a
1:19:23
dream sequel? All right, my dream sequel is
1:19:25
what I was saying. Where like she's solved 1
1:19:29
murderer and then she has to really live the next day over
1:19:31
and over again to solve the next murderer and it's somebody else
1:19:34
on her suspect list. OK, I think that would be an
1:19:36
interesting way to keep it going.
1:19:37
That could be fun, yeah. There's a lot to explore.
1:19:39
I don't really like the actual sequel they did for this, cuz
1:19:42
they went scifi with it, yeah, and it just became a different
1:19:45
type of movie. Keep it.
1:19:49
Horror. Also, we had to spend so much
1:19:51
more time with Ryan and he's a Comic Relief character, you know
1:19:55
what I mean? Yeah, it's it's weird, but I
1:20:00
don't know. I guess it's.
1:20:01
I've only seen him one time in theaters.
1:20:02
Maybe his second watch would help.
1:20:04
But I like your thing better. Just, yeah, let her have to
1:20:07
solve another set of murders. Or like maybe?
1:20:13
I don't know, maybe she solved somebody else's murder.
1:20:15
Yeah, I'm thinking like maybe somebody else is stuck in a loop
1:20:17
and she is like a side character in that, you know what I mean?
1:20:21
Like she made, literally the actual sequel that happened.
1:20:24
Is it? Is that what happens to somebody
1:20:26
else die? No.
1:20:28
Somebody else hasn't died, but somebody else is stuck in a
1:20:30
loop. Ryan's stuck in a loop.
1:20:32
I think he does actually get murdered at some point.
1:20:34
Whatever, You know, whatever. It's just deaths and restarting.
1:20:39
You know what I mean? Yeah, let's just keep it going.
1:20:40
How about a day that never ends? No.
1:20:44
OK. OK, whatever.
1:20:45
All right. So we got it there.
1:20:47
New tagline, What was it that you said before?
1:20:52
What was the? Find your Killer or Die trying.
1:20:55
Find your killer or die trying. I wanna punch it up to find your
1:20:57
killer and die trying. Find your killer and die trying.
1:21:01
Yeah. OK, Yeah.
1:21:03
Let's just alter it. Yeah.
1:21:05
Yeah, yeah, we can do that here. It's our rules.
1:21:07
We can do it. Yeah.
1:21:09
Who's gonna stop us? Yeah, exactly, you guys.
1:21:11
Maybe. Maybe.
1:21:12
Say it. Yeah, if you're like, that's
1:21:14
dumb. Yeah, okay, Sorry.
1:21:18
Okay, now we got reviews all right.
1:21:21
So I pulled a say review from IMDb of course.
1:21:27
So this one was a 2 out of 10. Jesus they say.
1:21:32
Wow, this is really a rip off of Groundhog Day.
1:21:35
They even acknowledge it in the movie.
1:21:37
It also had wooden acting, inconsistencies of gore, and
1:21:40
zero scare factor. The PG13 rating was a dead
1:21:43
giveaway, as that's a sign and a bad sign in a horror movie.
1:21:47
Kind of inspired me to get the list of the PG thirteens to
1:21:50
compare to which a lot of those had bad scores.
1:21:53
Anyways, the lead actress looks like she could be on her way to
1:21:56
some success, but just not in this.
1:21:59
The most irritating part for me not giving anything away due to
1:22:03
the trailer, is that no matter how long or short the she
1:22:06
lingers on the repeated opening scenario, the next sequence of
1:22:10
events are always in the same. That just wouldn't happen.
1:22:14
That wouldn't be the case in real life anyway.
1:22:16
I wanted to like it, as it had a good premise, but it just didn't
1:22:19
do it for me. I like that point about no
1:22:21
matter how long she's in the dorm room, this stuff happens
1:22:24
the same way. I thought about that too when we
1:22:26
were watching it and it is kind of I kind of just was like
1:22:28
whatever, like you know, I have a general role with time loop,
1:22:32
time travel, movies and it's don't think too hard about it.
1:22:36
I'm just wondering how long is what's his name?
1:22:39
Tim hiding behind right the banister.
1:22:42
Like, is he waiting for her? Does he know that she's gonna be
1:22:45
doing a walk of shame? So my I guess I can see why
1:22:50
people might not like this movie.
1:22:52
I know some people want their horror movies to be R rated
1:22:54
because it makes it a little bit grittier.
1:22:57
Horror isn't always necessarily family friendly.
1:23:00
I think it's nice to have a little bit more family friendly
1:23:02
options for younger horror fans that maybe aren't ready for the
1:23:05
more intense stuff. And I can see being a little bit
1:23:09
fatigued by time loop stuff because it it it does get used
1:23:13
in a lot of things. But.
1:23:15
I felt like it was fresh in this, the way it was used, at
1:23:18
least, Yeah. I think it was used in a unique
1:23:20
way because we've never really seen like a murder mystery spin
1:23:23
on it, so. Yeah, I mean, I also, although
1:23:26
we did have a trailer for basically the exact same thing
1:23:30
at the beginning of the DVD. That's true.
1:23:32
Yeah. Oh my God, it is a lot more
1:23:34
dramatic looking. Yeah, it's like a drama, I
1:23:36
think. Whatever.
1:23:37
It's all the Before I Fall. I think so.
1:23:40
I agree that the scare factor could have been punched up, but.
1:23:44
You know, I'm not going to like necessarily knock it for that
1:23:46
because, you know, that's I guess that's not exactly the
1:23:49
movie it it was like the trailer was indicating it was going to
1:23:54
be more horror, which is why I was really into the idea of it.
1:23:59
In the first place, and it didn't bother me, I still love
1:24:01
the movie after watching it, but I'm not gonna say no to upping
1:24:04
the scare factor and anything like that.
1:24:06
Yeah, and I I don't really think the acting is wooden at all.
1:24:11
I think Jessica Ross does great. I think Carter's actor is pretty
1:24:14
solid too, and I think it's gonna seem wooden when you have
1:24:17
to hear the same actors repeat the same lines a dozen times.
1:24:21
Yeah, of course it's gonna come across as repetitive and
1:24:24
redundant. They can't.
1:24:26
The people that aren't in the time loop are gonna do the same
1:24:31
delivery generally. Yeah, for the most part, yeah.
1:24:33
But yeah, whatever. I can see why people would maybe
1:24:36
not be happy with it, but let's talk about other people here
1:24:40
that have feelings about this movie.
1:24:42
So we got our listen reviews. Okay and I've got a couple here
1:24:45
on Instagram. So First off we have tygoto 3.
1:24:50
It says it's like if Groundhog's Day try it to be scary but
1:24:54
failed like a strong five out of 10/5 out of 10 just for the
1:24:58
concept. Okay, You don't exactly kind of
1:25:01
like that right there. If it's not, if it didn't meet
1:25:04
what your expectations were, if you thought it was gonna be more
1:25:07
scary, I could see why you would be let down from this, yeah.
1:25:11
Next up is Cube Saves, she says. I don't love these movies, but
1:25:14
I'll watch as many as they make. I agree with that.
1:25:18
Like I love these movies. I didn't love the second one,
1:25:21
but that's not gonna stop me from watching that third one if
1:25:23
it absolutely. Yeah, And they've confirmed that
1:25:26
they have an idea for the third one.
1:25:27
They've wanted to, they just haven't been greenlit to do so.
1:25:30
OK. But yeah, I would be totally on
1:25:33
board for part three. And we have one more review over
1:25:37
on Twitter, and it is from Chad, OK, Chad says.
1:25:40
Ooh, love this movie and didn't think I would.
1:25:43
That Chris Landon guy has got one hell of a track record.
1:25:46
I'm still not over you wounding me though, Trav.
1:25:48
I may withhold hugs next time I see you.
1:25:51
That's a lie. You know I can't do that.
1:25:54
For those curious, Chad is currently furious at Travis for
1:25:58
cutting his hair. I cut off a lot of my hair.
1:26:01
I'm back on the short hair. It's honestly not even that
1:26:05
short by like most ideas of a short haircut for men.
1:26:09
But compared to what it was, it's a.
1:26:12
This is all like 6 inches. This is classic Travis right
1:26:15
here. You know what?
1:26:15
This is what I was looking like fresh out of college.
1:26:17
I think pretty much. But yeah, I I like it.
1:26:20
I'm, I'm happy with my hair right now.
1:26:22
I'm sorry, Chad. You know, I get it.
1:26:24
Long hair. People gotta stick together.
1:26:26
But I'll be back. I'm sure he'll grow out
1:26:29
eventually. Get his hair?
1:26:30
Yeah, he gets a haircut once every two years.
1:26:32
So yeah, it'll it'll get more again.
1:26:35
And that's it. That is it for our reviews, and
1:26:38
that's it for this week's episode.
1:26:39
All right. So as you all know, next week is
1:26:44

That's right, guys. I've never seen the Lost Boys.
1:27:11
Everybody gives me shit every single time.
1:27:13
I told him that. I can't wait to see that trumpet
1:27:15
man saxophone. Trumpet.
1:27:18
That's sad. You know that's.
1:27:20
I've not seen it. I thought it was a Trump
1:27:22
trombone. We've literally met him.
1:27:25
I know. I saw him perform.
1:27:29
Yeah. I I don't know, man.
1:27:31

A lot of options. Definitely check it out.
1:27:53
I haven't watched it since I was got in middle school, so I'm
1:27:57
really cool. Yeah, it's gonna be almost fresh
1:27:59
for me, so I'm really excited about.
1:28:01
It I'm excited to see what everybody is saying about this
1:28:05
movie. I don't know anything that
1:28:06
happens in it either. I've been in the dark on it, so
1:28:09
nothing. We got both the quarries in it.
1:28:12
Double Corey action? Yeah, yeah.
1:28:14
Haven't talked about Corey Feldman since the Friday the
1:28:16
13th days. It's been about two years,
1:28:17
haven't talked about him on the podcast.
1:28:19
We were talking about him earlier this week and the fact
1:28:22
that he performed at a Riot Fest.
