  We'll get to the rest of the plugs and stuff at the end of
• 2:13
  the episode. Boys, it's been a week A.
• 2:20
  Week it's. Been a week, the world almost
• 2:22
  ended like yesterday. Yeah, that was super cool.
• 2:26
  Super cool and and based. It was it was what the kids call
• 2:30
  anti chill maxing. I believe that's not what they
• 2:34
  say around. I don't know, but I don't know.
• 2:37
  The stars did align a little bit because it did, in fact happen
• 2:41
  on a Tuesday. So talk, talk continues to be
• 2:47
  true and will probably continue to be true.
• 2:49
  But that doesn't mean that you should ignore things when they
• 2:54
  look like they could be potentially possibly happening.
• 2:58
  Looked not good, but you know what?
• 3:00
  Looked really not good, but then you know we all ended the day
• 3:04
  with a laugh, dunking on that fat sweaty idiot.
• 3:08
  Yeah, dude, you know. And look at this stuff from the
• 3:11
  Artemis mission to make ourselves feel better.
• 3:14
  I'm going to say it right now, right now.
• 3:17
  Such cool stuff. So cool, so incredible.
• 3:21
  The Artemis stuff space bro. Have you looked at the photos
• 3:26
  just today that were posted? Either they were posted last
• 3:29
  night or they were posted today where it's the the moon and then
• 3:33
  you can see the earth in the background.
• 3:35
  The Earth looks tiny. Yeah, yeah.
• 3:37
  Beautiful stuff, incredible perspective.
• 3:40
  It's like Majora's Mask put up in space.
• 3:45
  Majora's Mask is real though. What are you saying?
• 3:51
  Are you a moon denier? You're not a fucking moon
• 3:55
  denier. You're like all witchy and shit.
• 3:59
  If you're a moon denier, we're going to not.
• 4:01
  We're not talking about a movie this week because I'm just going
• 4:04
  to spend the whole half hour berating you about why you're a
• 4:07
  moon denier. He's not no moon denier.
• 4:12
  Also a flat earther. No dude all.
• 4:16
  Right, we're driving down to your location in undisclosed
• 4:20
  area of Michigan and beating you up.
• 4:25
  Yeah, he's trying to rage. No, he's trying to rage.
• 4:28
  You look at him, look at this piece of shit.
• 4:29
  He's rage baiting. He's just, he's stalling well,
• 4:32
  so he's got his McDonald's. He's got his cigarettes, he's
• 4:35
  got his vape, he's got his weed, he's got his McDonald's.
• 4:38
  He's fucking sitting here going how can I piss my friends off
• 4:41
  tonight? I got, I got Noah.
• 4:43
  Was it the other day? You see this?
• 4:45
  She's not impressed with your Flat Earth and your moon denial.
• 4:49
  She's not impressed. With the moon denial.
• 4:53
  I I said the moon landing was fake and no one got it.
• 4:56
  He I rage baited him. I it wasn't rage bait, I sent I
• 5:00
  I replied with the GIF of Buzz Aldrin punching that guy.
• 5:05
  Oh, this is all verbal. When was?
• 5:08
  I don't remember when this was it.
• 5:11
  Was when the actual shuttle launch?
• 5:14
  00. Yeah, said AI.
• 5:18
  Yeah. That's a green screen, but
• 5:21
  whatever. Whatever.
• 5:23
  God, boys, we got some cool stuff in the world.
• 5:25
  We got some bad. Stuff.
• 5:28
  God damn it. Anyways, Anyways, we watched a
• 5:31
  pretty fun little film this week.
• 5:34
  Alex's pick. Alex, why don't you lead us into
• 5:36
  the movie? It was.
• 5:37
  It was pretty. Sweet, wasn't it?
• 5:39
  This week I chose La Casa 3 or over here in America it is
• 5:45
  called Ghost House. Yes, yes.
• 5:49
  It is part of the La Casa series out of Italy I believe.
• 5:56
  I would do. I didn't.
• 5:59
  I didn't. See the other ones?
• 6:01
  This is la Casa. This is where it gets fucking
• 6:04
  weird because I've heard of the La Casa series.
• 6:08
  OK because guess what 1st 2 movies are part of said series.
• 6:15
  Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2 really started off as La Casa over in
• 6:23
  Italy. They couldn't call it Evil Dead.
• 6:25
  So they called it la Casa or like, doesn't that mean the
• 6:28
  house? What?
• 6:33
  Thank you. Nick looks so fucking confused.
• 6:34
  You are. Fundamentally shifting Nick's.
• 6:37
  Perspective So there's there's 7 La Casa movies in total.
• 6:42
  Evil Dead The Evil Dead Evil Dead 2 Ghost House, which is
• 6:45
  what we watched this week. Witchery House 2 the second
• 6:50
  story in the House 3 the horror show.
• 6:53
  You can't just, you can't just take another director's movie
• 6:56
  and go, this is a part of my shit.
• 6:59
  Yeah, but. But they're all different
• 7:01
  directors. The they just kind of like call
• 7:05
  them la Casa 'cause I, I don't know.
• 7:09
  Are these movies that were named La Casa or movies that are like
• 7:13
  narratively? They're named La Casa in Italy.
• 7:19
  OK, so it's not really a series as much as it is a collection of
• 7:25
  movies that share a name in Italy.
• 7:27
  They say series, but yes, it's more of a collection, yes.
• 7:31
  I mean, in the sense that they're all probably horror
• 7:33
  movies, I mean. Nick is so pissed.
• 7:37
  Nick doesn't understand. Nick's questioning everything.
• 7:39
  Nick's like, do I have to get my tattoo covered up?
• 7:41
  What am I sold? No, no, when, when When first
• 7:45
  released in 1981, Sam Raimi, director of The Evil Dead, was
• 7:49
  distributed in Italy under the title La Casa where the box off
• 7:54
  where it was a box office success in 87 sequel.
• 7:58
  Evil Dead 2 was less distributed under similar title La Casa 2
• 8:02
  and also did well in the Italian box office.
• 8:06
  And a bunch of people try to capitalize on that.
• 8:10
  There we are, but Ghost House is an Italian is made by an Italian
• 8:16
  filmmaker. So it was, and that would be
• 8:20
  technically Part 3 in the series.
• 8:23
  Interesting. Well, it's a it's a funny
• 8:27
  coincidence that we that you picked this one 'cause last week
• 8:31
  when we did the Beyond, or two weeks ago, if you're listening
• 8:35
  to this now, was also an Italian filmmaker making a horror movie
• 8:41
  set in America with an English speaking cast.
• 8:45
  Yeah, yeah, I hey, man, they have their own rules.
• 8:52
  They drew. I think things get really weird.
• 8:55
  We talked to, I mean, we talked about it a bit in that episode
• 8:58
  of how things get their name changed, translated differently.
• 9:06
  This seems like it was one of those.
• 9:09
  Yeah, the waters get muddy here, but I mean, I get it.
• 9:13
  Whatever. OK, So over here we call it
• 9:15
  Ghost House. So we're going, we're going to
• 9:17
  refer to it here as Ghost. House as ghost house.
• 9:20
  OK, OK. I I think.
• 9:22
  Ghost House? What?
• 9:24
  No. No, you go ahead.
• 9:26
  No, too late. Go.
• 9:27
  OK, I was just going to say The Ghost House is a very it's
• 9:31
  accurate. You'd have to say yeah, yeah,
• 9:34
  because most of this movie is just I they're not teenagers,
• 9:39
  They're young adults, probably like post college age, being
• 9:43
  harassed and eventually killed by ghosts and spirits and a guy,
• 9:50
  some guy. Yeah, it's like best of both
• 9:53
  worlds. It's like paranormal video movie
• 9:56
  but also has like a little bit of slasher elements to it.
• 9:59
  And there, yeah, A. Little bit.
• 10:01
  It's interesting. So why don't you tell the
• 10:03
  audience what it is though, Alex?
• 10:05
  What it is, but it's kind of hard to describe, starts off
• 10:12
  with a couple, starts off with a man named Sam Baker.
• 10:17
  He finds his daughter Henrietta hiding in a basement after
• 10:21
  killing her cat with a pair of scissors.
• 10:23
  They they show the cat. It's clearly a stuffed.
• 10:28
  Yeah, but like. Animal, but yeah.
• 10:30
  It's still like it's still a good practical effect.
• 10:33
  Yeah, yeah. Should say a lot of great
• 10:35
  practical effects and this will get into it.
• 10:38
  A lot, yeah. He shuns his daughter, so he
• 10:42
  locks her into the park basement with a doll that is, I'm
• 10:46
  assuming, a friend. Because.
• 10:49
  She looked like she didn't have friends.
• 10:50
  I don't fucking know dude. I mean, they live in a house in
• 10:54
  the middle of nowhere. In the middle of nowhere.
• 10:56
  So yeah. And then all of a sudden as soon
• 11:01
  as that happens, shit just starts popping off.
• 11:04
  It really did as soon as the old girl got locked in the basement.
• 11:09
  The the first ghostly event that we get is the light bulb
• 11:15
  explosion where the light bulb like inflates and then
• 11:19
  eventually bursts. Yeah, the bubbling, it was just
• 11:22
  like, boom. That was a good effect.
• 11:24
  That's really good. And then that after that
• 11:30
  happens, you get cuts to a couple in Boston.
• 11:36
  What the was his name? I don't know, Radio Guy.
• 11:42
  I couldn't remember. There's a lot of characters.
• 11:44
  There's a lot of I'm. Going to call him Ham Ham.
• 11:47
  Ham. Ham ham like a ham radio.
• 11:49
  Because there's going to be another character's name is
• 11:51
  going to sound like that. You remember that guy's name
• 11:55
  though. Yeah, well, I of course I
• 11:58
  remember that guy. But he hears something very
• 12:05
  creepy and mysterious over his ham radio and they go snooping.
• 12:09
  They find where it came from. They find ghost house.
• 12:12
  They name Paul. Was it Paul?
• 12:15
  Yeah. Yeah, Paul and his girlfriend
• 12:19
  find Ghost House and shit. It's the fan.
• 12:24
  That's right. I mean, yeah, that's the.
• 12:27
  Movie. That's pretty much it.
• 12:28
  So. You say the spoilers.
• 12:30
  Yeah. It's from It's from 1980.
• 12:33
  What 8? Yeah, well, not, you know,
• 12:35
  people sometimes haven't seen the thing, but spoilers from
• 12:39
  here on out, we're just gonna talk probably randomly about
• 12:42
  stuff. The the first bit of it, what
• 12:48
  they're setting up is that he's playing with his ham radio or
• 12:51
  doing whatever it is that he does on that thing.
• 12:55
  And he hears like someone who's distressed and calling for help.
• 12:59
  And then they they track down where it's coming from.
• 13:04
  They pick big pick up Pam, Pam, the hitchhiker who also goes to
• 13:09
  the house at some point. And when they get there, they
• 13:13
  meet this other guy who also has a radio and he plays in the tape
• 13:18
  of the recording and it's clearly his voice, the other
• 13:21
  guy's voice. And then, you know, the movie
• 13:25
  kind of meanders for a while and then the that guy is in the
• 13:29
  basement and you hear the stuff that we heard from the tape.
• 13:34
  And at that point I was like, oh, they're doing.
• 13:35
  There's like a, there's a, you know, time distortion element
• 13:39
  here where he was hearing something that hadn't happened
• 13:44
  yet, but they kind of just abandoned that threat as soon as
• 13:48
  like as soon as these people start getting killed by ghosts.
• 13:51
  And there's like the doll and the doll is evil.
• 13:55
  And maybe the doll is the thing that controls all of this.
• 13:58
  And you see the little girl, but then when someone comes in after
• 14:04
  something ghostly has happened, they don't see the little girl.
• 14:07
  But then there's just the man who's there.
• 14:10
  It it was a little disjointed all over the place.
• 14:12
  Yeah, like the farmer guy. Yeah, the farmer dude, I thought
• 14:16
  he was like, I figured he was like a groundskeeper type.
• 14:20
  That's that's. What I thought.
• 14:21
  I mean, that's what he he was, that's what the city hired him
• 14:25
  to do because he had the. Asylum, you know you had him and
• 14:30
  then I mean, you know the little girl, the entire movie that the
• 14:34
  little girl you see in the beginning of the movie, you're
• 14:36
  seeing throughout the entire movie.
• 14:38
  And it's I don't think they tried to hide the fact that she
• 14:41
  is the ghost, obviously, right. So that that was it's like, OK,
• 14:45
  I get it. She's tied to the house, she's
• 14:46
  haunting the house. She got the evil little clown
• 14:49
  guy with her, the doll. And that's where like the creepy
• 14:52
  music comes from the entire time where it's like, are you there?
• 14:56
  Are you up and like, are you there?
• 14:59
  It, it's start that shit starts out 'cause I the, the first
• 15:02
  comments I made when I heard that, I was like, where is it?
• 15:05
  I hate that. That's terrifying, whatever
• 15:07
  noise that is. Yeah, it's.
• 15:09
  Scary as shit. Is creepy.
• 15:12
  If I. Feel like doing some?
• 15:15
  Feel like doing some work? We could put it in right here.
• 15:24
  See. Awful.
• 15:26
  Terrible. What?
• 15:29
  Well, they've just heard it. They've heard the sound.
• 15:32
  Oh, there it is. Yeah, you guys heard it, aren't
• 15:34
  you? There?
• 15:37
  See Magic. Movie magic.
• 15:42
  Hey, just a tangent. Yeah, should could.
• 15:46
  If I isolate that sound, which we're going to do because we're
• 15:49
  going to put it, we're going to have put it in there.
• 15:52
  If I isolate that sound and send it to you, you guys set that as
• 15:54
  your ringtone. Yes, I'll set it.
• 15:57
  My ringtone is for you whenever you call.
• 15:59
  That dude. Hi there.
• 16:02
  That is it is the worst. It is like it's, it was fun and
• 16:06
  creepy at first, but I think by the like the fifth or sixth time
• 16:08
  you hear it, which is pretty close to the end of the movie,
• 16:10
  I'm like, okay, I get. It that's what I'm saying.
• 16:14
  At one point you're like, it's not scary anymore.
• 16:16
  Shut this thing up. And it's not really explained
• 16:19
  either. They never really say anything.
• 16:21
  It happens sometimes not even. It's like the doll obviously is
• 16:25
  doing it, but like why is the doll doing it?
• 16:28
  The dolls like maybe like the vessel for her soul.
• 16:31
  Maybe it's like a grave robbed. It's like a fat situation.
• 16:36
  Yeah, Oh my God, not fast. I don't want to talk with those
• 16:38
  fucking things, dude. What's the other one's name?
• 16:40
  The other fucking mean dummy. There's a lot of dolls, haunted
• 16:47
  dolls like Robert. The doll.
• 16:49
  Yeah. Robert the doll.
• 16:50
  He's a Dick. Well, you got to stop.
• 16:53
  We got to stop actually talking about about Robert.
• 16:55
  The boy. Rob's the boy, Robert's.
• 16:57
  Real. Yeah, historically bad things
• 16:59
  happen to podcasters when they're talking about Robert the
• 17:02
  Doll. Yeah, we're so we're done
• 17:04
  talking about him right now, but that doll is like, I would have
• 17:10
  loved, you know what I think I would have loved for this film
• 17:13
  if there was like a full blown like exploration of that doll
• 17:17
  because that doll itself was sweet.
• 17:19
  And when it got all pissed off and they did the fucking head
• 17:21
  change and shit like that was just awesome, dude.
• 17:26
  Also, we just spoiler eventually down the road, guys, we're going
• 17:30
  to on the show, we're reviewing that new Meat Canyon episode
• 17:32
  because it was because I I think dolls, I think that right now
• 17:36
  we're reviewing that eventually down the road.
• 17:38
  Get ready for that. But with this, it's so good.
• 17:42
  With this doll, though, I wanted more from it.
• 17:45
  I wanted to understand what this is.
• 17:47
  Is it like a vessel? Is it like what exactly it's
• 17:50
  doing? Because I it's, it was grave
• 17:52
  robbed. We know that that was like her
• 17:54
  doll that was grave robbed. Well, it was in the grave.
• 17:59
  Yeah, but at one point it was grave robbed, I thought.
• 18:02
  No, it was meant to be buried because Sam, her dad, was the
• 18:07
  caretaker or he worked for the morgue.
• 18:11
  OK. And he stole it from the dead
• 18:15
  person to give to his daughter. Therefore, already that's bad
• 18:19
  juju. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
• 18:21
  Stealing from a fucking dead person.
• 18:23
  Yeah, yeah, can't. Do that also.
• 18:24
  At the end of the day, who cares?
• 18:25
  They're fucking dead. Well, yeah, they can.
• 18:27
  Sorry, I'll cut that. Cut that.
• 18:29
  Can't take it with you. Nope, we're not.
• 18:32
  We're not cutting that, You stole.
• 18:34
  Yeah, but I mean, but it's like they, they, you know, they, you
• 18:38
  steal from a grave and it's like, oh, whatever, what do they
• 18:41
  care? They're dead.
• 18:42
  But it's sort of that the spiritual sort of cosmic
• 18:48
  punishment that this thing didn't.
• 18:51
  This I, I, I don't really know if the doll is the source of all
• 18:57
  these things. I kind of think that it is, but
• 18:59
  they really don't focus on it. But you do see like at the very
• 19:03
  beginning, like the girl with the doll and she's holding it
• 19:07
  and she's kind of crying and it's like, is the doll and like
• 19:11
  controlling her or what like. That's the problem.
• 19:14
  It's just so everywhere. It doesn't know where it wants
• 19:17
  to stay. And the movie throughout the
• 19:20
  entirety of its duration, while not a bad film, it doesn't know
• 19:25
  where to stay. It doesn't know what it wants to
• 19:28
  do. It doesn't know which story to
• 19:30
  focus on or where, what location we're going to stay at for long
• 19:34
  enough to really fucking care. And like even within the house,
• 19:38
  I was like, oh, I made a joke. I'm like, oh, look, just throw a
• 19:41
  couple things of drywall and throw some spackle on it.
• 19:44
  Because the rest of the fucking house, the set for the house was
• 19:48
  fine. It was like, oh, this is a
• 19:49
  creepy old house. Then you literally go through an
• 19:51
  A hall and it's just like drywall.
• 19:54
  And I'm like, well that doesn't. That doesn't add up.
• 19:57
  It's an old lot. A lot of it is a bit.
• 20:00
  Strange and disjointed. And there's, like, concepts that
• 20:06
  are good. Yeah.
• 20:08
  Like you have people walking in a room and they see a severed
• 20:12
  head and a dryer. Dude, so that was so good.
• 20:16
  Like that was sweet. And then it just like as soon as
• 20:20
  somebody comes down, it's they, they just like make everything
• 20:23
  disappear. Like, obviously the people, the
• 20:26
  whole point is that there's this the guy, the groundskeeper type
• 20:30
  is there and he's a crazy guy, so they think it's plausible
• 20:34
  that he could be killing people. But they're all saying that
• 20:37
  they've had these ghostly encounters that no one can prove
• 20:40
  because they're the only one who saw it.
• 20:42
  So of course it must be the groundskeeper guy, but it
• 20:44
  actually is a ghost. They're like Scooby doing it all
• 20:48
  over the place in this movie. And they do that for a while and
• 20:51
  then the movie just stops dead while they try to lower they
• 20:53
  literally he basically says like, come on gang, let's split
• 20:57
  up and look for clues. And at that point the movie just
• 21:00
  stops dead completely. Like there's there's ghostly
• 21:03
  shenanigans up until that point, but then it just stops dead.
• 21:07
  And then every once in a while they'll do more ghostly
• 21:09
  shenanigans. It was so confusing.
• 21:13
  Well, and let's not get stuck in the weeds here on the negatives.
• 21:16
  Let's also give props where props are due, and that is the
• 21:20
  props department here. That is the makeup, that is the
• 21:22
  effects. That is that.
• 21:24
  What I will not give props to is the ADR and sound team because
• 21:27
  what the fuck are you guys doing?
• 21:28
  But we'll get back to. That I wrote in my notes.
• 21:31
  Every ADR sound sounds like it was recorded in a parking
• 21:35
  garage. Alex mentioned 1 specifically.
• 21:40
  The hand motion thing. Yeah, I, I all I did was laugh
• 21:43
  and you were like, yeah, you seen that?
• 21:45
  Yeah, it was good. The guy like, he like, he does
• 21:48
  he like gently wraps his knuckles a little bit and it
• 21:51
  sounds like a guy in a garage, just like, just like, just like.
• 21:55
  Completely unnecessary, like you did not have to add a sound to
• 21:58
  that. I don't know if I was going to
• 21:59
  hear that head through my microphone.
• 22:02
  Oh my God. But but the effects were cool
• 22:08
  and we stated that from the top of the episode, from exploding
• 22:11
  light bulbs to fucking acid bath fucking floors to hatchets to
• 22:17
  the head to a fan blade flying off and severing a neck artery.
• 22:22
  It's all there. The blood is cool, the gore is
• 22:24
  cool for what gore is there. The effects itself are cool and
• 22:28
  honestly the puppet all the albeit not really used greatly
• 22:33
  because it's just a stationary it's cool.
• 22:35
  So there's a lot of cool. It's here.
• 22:38
  It's very poltergeist reminiscent.
• 22:41
  Yes yes. Which is like 2 years prior to
• 22:46
  this movie. And poltergeist.
• 22:49
  Poltergeist. I almost said poultrygeist.
• 22:53
  I know Poltergeist did. It far already.
• 22:57
  Yes, we did do that one already. Go listen to it.
• 23:01
  So all that was good, right? Like you see where that is at
• 23:05
  like, oh, this is really good. This is cool.
• 23:06
  This is cool. And then it just does every,
• 23:10
  every opportunity this film gets to punch itself in the nuts, it
• 23:12
  does it. Yeah, I I would say someone.
• 23:17
  Would say fuck face. Yeah, nice.
• 23:20
  This but. Yeah.
• 23:22
  Like you said, the effects and they are good like the the
• 23:26
  effects they do at the beginning with like the bending mirror and
• 23:29
  you're exploding light bulbs and stuff.
• 23:31
  That's cool. It's just like bogged down by
• 23:33
  the story that doesn't make any sense at.
• 23:36
  All no. And maybe it would maybe make
• 23:38
  more sense if it was if it was actually an Italian.
• 23:44
  But this is all American actors. Yeah, I'm looking.
• 23:47
  At they were speaking English though, like.
• 23:49
  I know. Yeah, they they were.
• 23:51
  I'm looking at the Wikipedia here.
• 23:54
  This is a but this is based on the reception that the movie was
• 23:58
  praised for the cinematography and the score, but the, well,
• 24:04
  it's ultimately blaming the film's great confusion and lack
• 24:07
  of accuracy on its, you know, lack of success, which I get
• 24:14
  because this movie is all over the place.
• 24:18
  I I got lost. I was sitting there like, what?
• 24:23
  What? Where are we going?
• 24:28
  That's not a bad movie. That's the fucked up thing.
• 24:30
  It's like, this was a good fucking fun time.
• 24:32
  Oh, it was good. This is fun.
• 24:34
  I like this, but then again I'm sitting here going where the
• 24:38
  fuck are we going? If it's just going to be ghostly
• 24:41
  shenanigans, I mean we talked about this when we did Sleepover
• 24:46
  or Slumber Party Massacre. It's a no frills slasher and in
• 24:50
  that movie it does just slasher stuff and then the movie just
• 24:54
  kind of ends. It is perfect and it and it was
• 24:56
  great. If this movie had done that,
• 24:58
  where it's just ghost stuff for like an hour and then the movie
• 25:02
  just kind of ends, I feel like that would have been better.
• 25:06
  Even the ending of this fucking film, I was like fuck you.
• 25:09
  I got pissed. I was like what the fuck you?
• 25:12
  What do? You mean he just he.
• 25:14
  Yeah, at the end. And he when he lights the little
• 25:18
  the girl, he finds her perfectly preserved body in like coffin.
• 25:21
  In like a tomb. Which I saw would have at first
• 25:24
  because her hands a skeleton hand.
• 25:26
  Yeah, it's a little spooky skeleton hand.
• 25:27
  And then he lights her on fire and then poof, all of the ghosts
• 25:30
  disappear. Anticlimactically, there's this
• 25:33
  cool effect where there's like this ghoul and it's got these.
• 25:37
  Looking like looking like Skeletor coming out there and.
• 25:40
  It's and it's got these nasty fucking maggots on its face.
• 25:44
  Anyway, This is gross. That actor is probably not
• 25:46
  having a good day on set, but this is a good effect.
• 25:48
  I would fucking hate that. I would fucking cry and then
• 25:53
  instantly, instantly, instantly this dude pours ghastly on one
• 25:56
  spot of the body that pissed. Me off pile.
• 26:02
  Do. On our light bubbled it up and
• 26:05
  then he just lights are on fire and then it's like oh, that's
• 26:07
  enough. Boom, ghosts are dead.
• 26:09
  What movie? You pissed me off.
• 26:13
  Why? Why they there's not even a
• 26:15
  fight? And then and then they do a
• 26:17
  little time skip and it's the and it's Paul, and he's walking
• 26:21
  over to his girlfriend. He just gets hit by a bus.
• 26:24
  And then the movie ends. What?
• 26:25
  Yeah. 'Cause the fuck?
• 26:27
  But but what did his girlfriend see in the window before he gets
• 26:30
  fucking smoked? The dummy, but how?
• 26:33
  Oh, did. She let's.
• 26:34
  Yeah, the dummy it is. And then it's like it's too
• 26:37
  slowing my eyes. It's switch faces too.
• 26:40
  Yeah, the dummy is in the window and it goes hello, are you
• 26:44
  there? And it switches its fucking
• 26:46
  face. Interesting.
• 26:48
  But like, how is it there unless it's a manifestation that's
• 26:54
  following them now? But you didn't explain that I
• 26:57
  could buy that and then I could buy him getting hit by a bus.
• 27:00
  Even though he had the right of way.
• 27:02
  He wasn't jaywalking. Why don't you just make him
• 27:04
  jaywalking Get hit by a bus? Dive.
• 27:10
  They would. Think they want you to think it
• 27:11
  is like you said, like I adore now.
• 27:17
  Then fucking go out and say that at some point.
• 27:21
  But why do we? Why are we?
• 27:24
  I'm all for guessing, but why don't make me guess like this
• 27:28
  though, yeah? I don't.
• 27:30
  But because it's one thing if you litter the fucking movie
• 27:33
  with things that like if you're paying attention, you'll find,
• 27:38
  but if you're not paying attention, you won't find.
• 27:40
  This movie is like you're just watching and it's just like it's
• 27:42
  like play. Oh shit, that was scary.
• 27:45
  Anyways, now we're going to go talk for 20 minutes and this
• 27:47
  movie fucking feels like it's dragging on for 2 1/2 hours it.
• 27:51
  Did drag on a lot towards the end.
• 27:54
  I'm like, all right, dude, yeah, it's going to end this.
• 27:57
  Going to end it a couple different times.
• 28:00
  You know my problem, man. Go on, Noah.
• 28:03
  I was, I was going to say because we always like to do
• 28:05
  this sort of thing. I looked up what happened to the
• 28:08
  doll from Ghost House and I got a bunch of stuff that's like
• 28:13
  talking about other dolls. It mentioned Robert and it
• 28:16
  mentioned Annabelle and it mentioned a different doll that
• 28:22
  is the same style of dolls as Zuni type doll.
• 28:28
  I don't know what that means, but OK.
• 28:31
  And people, people, I mean, that shows that people know this.
• 28:36
  They know what that is, that it is probably the doll that is the
• 28:40
  main like crux of the movie. But they do.
• 28:44
  I don't feel like they set it up enough to pin everything on
• 28:48
  that. No.
• 28:50
  I would have loved if they did. Oh no, that's absolutely.
• 28:53
  They would if they all they would have had to say at the
• 28:56
  beginning is the parents would have been like, God, I I don't
• 28:59
  know why she's been misbehaving ever since she got that dog.
• 29:03
  That's all. That's all you need and.
• 29:04
  Then you go. Cheesy and campy, but it tells
• 29:07
  you everything. Get it to know.
• 29:09
  You get it and it's good. Yeah.
• 29:12
  Like, but here's the thing. I still don't think this is a
• 29:17
  bad movie. Yeah, and I got stunts.
• 29:21
  I'm like pissed right now at this fucking film but it's for
• 29:24
  its lack of just calming the fuck down for 5 minutes.
• 29:29
  Yeah, it like I've many criticisms, but I think there's
• 29:35
  good ideas here. But as a whole, package is
• 29:40
  definitely not as good as I hoped.
• 29:44
  Fun to watch, you know, I will say I had fun watching with you
• 29:48
  fellas obviously, but like man, just fucking breathe when you're
• 29:55
  directing a film. Have your people just calm the
• 29:58
  fuck down and maybe, maybe don't go off the first draft.
• 30:03
  Do we have a budget for this? Let's see.
• 30:12
  That's you know. Low budget?
• 30:17
  No shit. OK, so they're not discussing
• 30:22
  this, huh? They're all low budget.
• 30:25
  It's hard to it's, it's hard with these, you know, all these
• 30:28
  movies that are low budget. It's hard to.
• 30:31
  There's some pretty big scenes in this film, though, like the
• 30:34
  floor crack scenes. Those are some pretty big
• 30:37
  effects. Yeah, for that time, that was
• 30:41
  two different floors that he fucking fell through into an
• 30:43
  acid bath. The budget is unknown.
• 30:47
  The budget. Is unknown.
• 30:50
  Yeah, of course it was a tax write off it.
• 30:53
  Was a tax write. It just it gets complicated.
• 30:56
  And we talked about this again also with the Beyond zit.
• 30:59
  It's a foreign movie. Yeah.
• 31:02
  And then and it probably released in Italy and Europe
• 31:07
  before it released in the US. That it released?
• 31:13
  Fuck. What did it say?
• 31:15
  France, then Japan? That America.
• 31:19
  Yeah, that's strange. That's super strange.
• 31:22
  So nobody wanted to pick this up for a minute.
• 31:25
  No one knew what to do with it. I swear I just read that.
• 31:29
  Where the fuck did I see that at?
• 31:33
  And I stand by that. It's not a bad film.
• 31:35
  I do stand by it. It's not a bad film.
• 31:38
  It's just it just doesn't know what it wants to be at times.
• 31:41
  And that's frustrating. I don't want to be frustrated.
• 31:46
  I'm a have have you guys seen Evil Dead rise?
• 31:50
  Yeah. Yeah, I've I've see a comment
• 31:53
  here or a review on Letterbox that said this was better than
• 31:56
  Evil Dead Rise. You said that controversial
• 32:02
  take. Just some some person on
• 32:04
  Letterbox. What's their?
• 32:06
  What's their? What's what's?
• 32:08
  Their you mother. I don't know.
• 32:10
  Oh, you motherfucker. No, I'm like, I'm not.
• 32:12
  I'm not. Talking.
• 32:12
  I'm not going to. I'm not going to tell you.
• 32:15
  Whoever we are. Shit, idiot.
• 32:20
  What a You're a fool. I don't even know who my buddy's
• 32:22
  talking about here. This is better than you're dead.
• 32:25
  Rise. Some of these reviews are funny.
• 32:30
  We should do a letterbox segment at the end of.
• 32:32
  Every look at some letterbox reviews we have, we got to we
• 32:35
  got to curate them. This one's in French.
• 32:39
  I can't read that one. This a lot of these in different
• 32:41
  languages. This this review is good.
• 32:45
  This one's just messy. The story goes nowhere, the
• 32:47
  acting is stiff, and the creepy doll angle barely lands.
• 32:51
  It has that chaotic Italian horror vibe, but not in a fun
• 32:54
  way. This time.
• 32:55
  It's loud, random, and not very rewarding.
• 32:58
  Super accurate I would say. Yes, yeah.
• 33:02
  That person called. It damn it, everyone gets 1
• 33:06
  Alex, every movie you've chosen be prior to.
• 33:09
  This and that's not it's not to say that it's worthless.
• 33:12
  Like I know. It's good stuff here, it's just.
• 33:16
  You know the a couple of its bones are good.
• 33:21
  Yeah. You know, but every other movie
• 33:25
  you've had has been an absolute fucking five out of five, pretty
• 33:28
  much so. And you know what?
• 33:31
  3 out of five. You're out of five.
• 33:34
  Because the effects. Yeah, I'm, I'm, I'm trying to
• 33:36
  know what's what's. Your ratings 80s soundtrack was
• 33:40
  very catchy. So you know, but all that still
• 33:43
  in there, are you in there? Oh my God, I hear that every
• 33:47
  time I every time when I go to sleep. 2.5. 2.5.
• 33:55
  Because it's not worthless. This is a cool little thing.
• 33:58
  It's not even little. It's a cool film with cool ideas
• 34:02
  that it doesn't stick or commit to any of them.
• 34:06
  It like it like looks at the best versions of itself and
• 34:10
  goes, yeah, I'm going to go take a right instead of taking that
• 34:12
  left I should have taken. I know I'll get there faster,
• 34:15
  but I'm going to go this way. That's what this film is like.
• 34:18
  The epitome of this film is that.
• 34:20
  But the effects are fucking awesome.
• 34:26
  The soundtrack is fun at times. The doll is cool and I like most
• 34:33
  of the premise if they would stick to 1:00 but they tried
• 34:37
  doing too much so 2.5 out of five.
• 34:42
  Yeah, I it's. Fucking hilarious.
• 34:44
  What do you, what do you think, Alex?
• 34:45
  What do you give it? I I want to give it a four.
• 34:49
  Yeah. Well, explain why.
• 34:51
  You could give me whatever you. For for one reason, because
• 34:55
  damn, this movie got to you two riled up and it's fucking
• 34:58
  hilarious and too like yeah, it mean yeah, it it is all over the
• 35:05
  place, but it is a pretty decent fucking movie for what the hell
• 35:08
  it is like I would probably watch this again, honestly, like
• 35:12
  I would not have an issue watching this a second time.
• 35:14
  I think I'd watch a second time just to see like.
• 35:18
  If. I missed anything.
• 35:20
  Something of that maybe it just overlooked because you're being
• 35:23
  ADHD. Yeah, maybe.
• 35:27
  I mean, but I don't disagree with you though, Alex.
• 35:31
  Look, your, your perspective is is valid.
• 35:34
  You know it. Yeah, Yeah.
• 35:36
  So. Alex said you guys are being
• 35:37
  stopped. You got to yell.
• 35:39
  It's fucking hilarious. I.
• 35:40
  Think it should. Get I, I.
• 35:42
  I find it so fucking funny. Honestly, why?
• 35:46
  Because it's just funny. I don't what.
• 35:50
  I mean, I feel like a lot of the time, like movies don't, they
• 35:53
  don't always get a big reaction from us.
• 35:55
  It's a it's, it's sometimes it's easier to criticize a movie than
• 36:01
  it is to talk about, like, how much you like it.
• 36:04
  Yeah, it is. You know, because you can.
• 36:07
  There's specific things that either bother you about it or
• 36:13
  that I find like frustrating and confusing.
• 36:17
  So, you know, it's much different tone tonight, I would
• 36:22
  say. It's a longer episode, I'll say
• 36:26
  that. Yeah, definitely.
• 36:28
  I was looking at the clock. Oh, shit, yeah, buddy, yeah,
• 36:35
  it's but boys, it is. It is screen box bedtime.
• 36:40
  No, you know what, though, honestly, good pic it this is
• 36:42
  not as it just makes me irritated when something can't
• 36:47
  just take me to where I got. I know what I got to go in the
• 36:51
  film. I get mad about that.
• 36:53
  I get riled up. It's it's miss potential is is
• 36:57
  what it is. Because you could see the shit
• 37:00
  there. You're like, oh, that's neat.
• 37:02
  What's wild is this director has so many movies under his belt.
• 37:07
  This this movie was his second to last.
• 37:10
  He made three other things after this movie.
• 37:13
  Only one of them had a theatrical release and the other
• 37:16
  were straight to TV movies. He did the damn thing we had, he
• 37:21
  had. Four more movies after this.
• 37:24
  Yeah, but only one of those got a theatrical release.
• 37:28
  The the oh, OK, OK, OK. So this is for all intents and
• 37:32
  purposes, it's one of his last projects.
• 37:35
  Yeah. Like to go back and see?
• 37:38
  It's a dude who made Cannibal Ferox, sorry.
• 37:41
  What the Cannibal Holocaust ripoff?
• 37:49
  Yeah. I'm, I'm getting a vibe, I'm
• 37:53
  getting a vibe that he maybe borrows ideas from other stuff,
• 37:57
  you know? He sat there with This is a part
• 38:02
  of the Evil Dead. Film.
• 38:04
  This is a part of The Evil, The Dead.
• 38:07
  The spooky Sam Raimi. I'm in your universe now.
• 38:13
  The the cojones on this guy to. Big to do that.
• 38:18
  Big big weibos dude. That's so fucking funny, dude.
• 38:23
  Man, Alex fucking dropped the truth bomb at the end of the
• 38:26
  episode, bro. Cannibal fair rocks like I.
• 38:33
  Oh yeah, dude. Oh, buddies.
• 38:35
  All right, well, everybody, we could, we could waffle for the
• 38:38
