#213: Society (1989) · What's Your (Least) Favorite Scary Movie?

• 0:06
  Hello. What's your least favorite scary
• 0:08
  movie? I love the smell of the hunt and
• 0:13
  the taste of the shunt. Welcome to what your least
• 0:18
  favorite scary movie? The podcast where we talk about
• 0:20
  the good, the bad, the ugly, and the downright absurd in all of
• 0:24
  our favorites. And least favorite?
• 0:25
  Scary movies. 'Cause we believe every horror
• 0:27
  movie rightfully has its fan base.
• 0:29
  Even if we don't always get it my.
• 0:31
  Name is Travis. My name's Jesse and we are
• 0:34
  rounding out prom month and our anniversary with a little flick
• 0:40
  best known as Society. I was gonna say in a on a bang,
• 0:45
  but then I also wanna say it on a shunt.
• 0:48
  I mean, all of those work now. We're using the prom month theme
• 0:55
  very loosely here 'cause it's a coming out party and we don't
• 0:58
  actually see it. But I'm just gonna, I'm gonna
• 1:02
  pull the mom and dad card here and say our show our rules.
• 1:06
  We're doing this because we said so.
• 1:08
  Yeah, look, man, like we're gonna be a little bit limited
• 1:11
  with some of the prom movies that we can do.
• 1:13
  There's only so many of those out there.
• 1:15
  And in my heart, I felt like this one fit.
• 1:18
  I I agree. It it fits, it's it's a fun
• 1:21
  movie. There's a whole party here.
• 1:22
  If you don't count the shunt, the shunting as like a whole
• 1:27
  party or an after party of sorts, then I don't know, like.
• 1:30
  To be fair, I think a lot of us might have had a better time at
• 1:33
  prom if we did have a shunting. I don't know.
• 1:40
  I don't know, man, I don't. Know I I guess it depends on
• 1:42
  your perspective if you're the shunter or the shuntee.
• 1:45
  Look man, we gotta get in. OK, Yeah.
• 1:47
  We we can talk about the shunt all day long.
• 1:49
  We and we will. We will, but.
• 1:52
  When it's appropriately time. OK, so announcements for our
• 1:58
  budget tier bubbies. We did release your May bonus
• 2:02
  episode like last. It was on Thursday.
• 2:07
  Was it Thursday? OK.
• 2:08
  We did it on Thursday nights. It was on the Strangers chapter
• 2:12
  one. We did a whole little mini
• 2:14
  episode for that. Yeah, we did.
• 2:15
  All of our we did a little bit of background, some of the stuff
• 2:18
  that was available now, good, bad, ugly and absurd.
• 2:21
  We actually had a really good conversation about it.
• 2:23
  Yeah, it was a fun time. And, you know, even if you
• 2:26
  haven't seen the movie, I still think, you know, you can listen
• 2:28
  to a good chunk of that and not really have anything ruined for
• 2:31
  you. And we'll tell you when we get
• 2:33
  there. Specifically, say we're about to
• 2:35
  start talking about spoilers because we can't avoid it for
• 2:37
  the things we want to say. Yeah, we do very clearly
• 2:39
  delineate when that happens. But if you.
• 2:41
  Listen to that episode, I think you'll probably feel
• 2:44
  comfortable. Like maybe we should give people
• 2:46
  warning. The Stranger chapter one's like
• 2:47
  a remake of the first one. So like, yeah, you'll be fine to
• 2:51
  watch it. Yeah, we mentioned that on our
• 2:53
  episode last week. You'll be fine to.
• 2:55
  Listening. So we're not really revealing
• 2:57
  anything. There's a.
• 2:58
  Couple of things. But we make it clear.
• 3:01
  Yeah, I think specifically where we post where we like mentioned
• 3:05
  spoilers was where they were major difference, yes.
• 3:08
  So I do think that we. It's fun.
• 3:11
  Delineated that, yeah. So and if you're not a budget
• 3:13
  tier patron, you can find that link in our show notes.
• 3:16
  Very, very bottom. Just scroll to the bottom right
• 3:18
  here right now. It'll take you right to our
• 3:19
  Patreon. Also our budget and bug Ted tier
• 3:22
  bubbies can now or have already voted them.
• 3:26
  No, it's open until tomorrow night as of the day of this
• 3:29
  release. You're right.
• 3:30
  For our. For their vote for June, yeah,
• 3:34
  which we are doing Pride month again.
• 3:36
  So these are themed appropriately and we will talk
• 3:39
  about that a little bit more at the end of this episode.
• 3:42
  True. So you can cast your votes now,
• 3:43
  though, just to let you know. Yes, Yeah.
• 3:45
  OK. Well, I have our poll results.
• 3:48
  OK, so this is saw X, saw X, which was our what's the term
• 3:56
  chaperone for the prawn. You OK?
• 3:59
  No, I think we established I'm not.
• 4:02
  OK. Yeah, OK.
• 4:03
  And as usual we did. Which trap?
• 4:10
  OK, yeah, we we talked about which trap do you think you
• 4:14
  could survive. Planned and now I can't remember
• 4:16
  any of the words I want to use. Which trap do you think you
• 4:19
  could survive? AKA who would you survive?
• 4:24
  Wait, which one would you surprise to be able to go to
• 4:25
  prom with? Yeah, OK.
• 4:27
  I got there what I got there eventually.
• 4:30
  I like where your head's at because I know that you're
• 4:32
  focused fully on society. And yeah.
• 4:36
  But we got to like, hold on. My.
• 4:39
  We can't let the wheels fall off this early.
• 4:41
  On my brain has been sucked out by the rich.
• 4:43
  It's fine. OK, Yeah, we have our Saw X pole
• 4:47
  here where we do like all of our franchise, specifically Saw
• 4:52
  episodes. Which trap you think he would
• 4:54
  survive? I don't think we did anything
• 4:55
  with Prom relating to it. We said it was the chaperone and
• 4:59
  we did both. I was saying, AKA, how are you
• 5:03
  gonna be able to get to prom after you've been in John
• 5:06
  Trainer's hands? Could do.
• 5:08
  John Trainers. John Cramer's hands.
• 5:11
  Yeah, OK, so the four traps that we chose, there were more than
• 5:16
  that in this movie, but we chose the wire trap, the brain surgery
• 5:20
  trap, the pipe bomb trap and the radiation trap.
• 5:23
  So just to be clear, 50% of these here you can actually
• 5:27
  survive as demonstrated in the movie.
• 5:30
  So So what people chose? Nobody chose the wire trap. 20%
• 5:35
  chose the brain surgery trap. Who the fuck does that?
• 5:38
  I think people chose, people avoided the wire trap because
• 5:41
  it's got the Julie saw and everybody's so traumatized by
• 5:45
  the movie Julie, starring Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck.
• 5:48
  You might be on to something, I don't know.
• 5:49
  I've never seen this so I don't have that fear.
• 5:52
  Within the pipe bomb trap, 40% voted for and 40% also voted the
• 5:58
  radiation trap. Meanwhile on Twitter, 33% the
• 6:02
  wire trap. So known wasn't Twitter fans.
• 6:04
  Twitter is wild. I am sure there are people that
• 6:07
  are actually such hardcore benefit fans.
• 6:09
  They were like hell yeah, gobble gobble.
• 6:10
  Well, they're getting divorced again, so it's.
• 6:14
  Yeah, I'm not. I'm not surprised by that.
• 6:15
  Yeah. OK.
• 6:16
  And 67% the radiation trap was the final.
• 6:22
  As a recap, I remember saying that I felt I could handle the
• 6:26
  radiation trap because I have a great deal of experience with
• 6:29
  broken bones and falling from heights.
• 6:31
  Yeah, you, you've got that down pat.
• 6:34
  I think I can do the pipe bomb one pretty easily.
• 6:38
  You just got to cut it out of your arm and you know that one
• 6:42
  like it hurts, but like it's it's not like I'm not fucking
• 6:47
  with my potential like brain future.
• 6:50
  Like OK, it's clearly not in a good state as it is right now
• 6:54
  from how I'm talking. See, that's why I didn't take
• 6:56
  the brain trap, because we know I can't afford to learn my
• 6:59
  brain. Future.
• 6:59
  Yeah. Yeah, no.
• 7:02
  Like I'm already too smooth up here as it is.
• 7:04
  Same. So, you know, maybe I've maybe
• 7:07
  I've got some despair. Then I.
• 7:09
  Don't know like whatever. I'm already this fucking or
• 7:11
  whatever. No, it's it's the pie bombs.
• 7:13
  It's yeah, it's simple as that. So we did the two ones that are
• 7:16
  actually survivable as demonstrated.
• 7:18
  But men the traps in that movie were hardcore.
• 7:22
  So it's it's tough goings no matter how you.
• 7:25
  How you go? So OK, that's it for our poll
• 7:28
  results. So let's talk about some
• 7:30
  society. Society for you.
• 7:36
  All right. OK, so society.
• 7:39
  It's initial premiere was May 13th, 1989 at the Cannes Film
• 7:45
  Festival. The wide US release was not
• 7:48
  until June 11th, 1992. Whoa.
• 7:51
  Really. Yes.
• 7:52
  Damn. Yes, it took a little bit for
• 7:54
  them to negotiate on what could be seen.
• 7:59
  And I think ultimately, as we saw in the special features,
• 8:03
  that he just had to release a director's cut because the MPAA
• 8:09
  was not down with the shunting. Yeah.
• 8:11
  Is anyone shocked? No, He.
• 8:14
  Said they wanted him to cut it. Cut the ending of the movie,
• 8:17
  essentially. Cut.
• 8:18
  The denim. Why?
• 8:22
  Why? Okay.
• 8:25
  So we watched this on our Blu-ray, but as of today you can
• 8:28
  also stream it on Sling TV, Fubo TV, Plex, YouTube Prime time,
• 8:32
  YouTube TV Premium Prime or Pluto, or you can rent it from
• 8:36
  Google Play or Fandango at home. Society was written by Zeph E
• 8:41
  Daniel and Rick Fry, directed by Brian Yesna, music by Phil
• 8:46
  Davies and Mark Ryder, and as it was credited in the opening
• 8:50
  credits, see realistic makeup effects were done by Screaming
• 8:55
  Matt. George, I think.
• 8:57
  This is the first time we've gotten or gotten we've gotten to
• 8:59
  talk about him on this show, so. Far no.
• 9:03
  No nightmare. Yep.
• 9:05
  It's been years, yeah. It's been a long.
• 9:07
  It's been a while and we're talking about him with his
• 9:14
  filmmaking soul mate, Brian Yezna.
• 9:16
  I just, they're such a dream team and I'm sure I'll talk
• 9:20
  about that when we get to our goods about the movie.
• 9:23
  Do you have anything on the in the the fun facts?
• 9:27
  I don't know. OK 'cause.
• 9:31
  If it's what you're referring to or not.
• 9:33
  Oh, I was just, I thought it was interesting how they got
• 9:35
  connected. Oh yeah, Where somebody was just
• 9:37
  like, hey, this guy really likes to do some realistic makeup.
• 9:40
  Yeah, it was Japanese producers. Like they all.
• 9:42
  Were finest in the movie and they're like hey man you need to
• 9:45
  get this guy this guy's an amazing effects artist over here
• 9:47
  in Japan we need to get him over there in the United states I'm.
• 9:50
  So glad they. Didn't do.
• 9:51
  And I was like, fuck yeah. And then we had a nice little
• 9:54
  pairing and yes, God, history was made.
• 9:57
  OK, starring Billy Warlock as Bill Whitney, Evan Richards as
• 10:02
  Milo, Devin Devasquez as Clarissa, Ben Slack as Doctor
• 10:06
  Cleveland, Charles Lucia as Jim Whitney, Concetta Dagnis as Nan
• 10:11
  Whitney, Patrice Jennings as Jenny Whitney, Brian Bramer as
• 10:15
  Martin Petrie, Yay, Ben Myerson as Ted Ferguson, Heidi Kozak
• 10:21
  Haddad as Shauna, and David Wiley as Judge Carter I.
• 10:25
  Always like it when we have Heidi on these movies.
• 10:27
  I know like she has like A to. Jump in randomly.
• 10:31
  Well, she's she kind of encapsulates the feel of the 80s
• 10:35
  horror movies that I love because she said all of those
• 10:38
  that I love. She and then she was gone.
• 10:40
  She could literally just be like a mascot for that era.
• 10:44
  She just retired and just went off and did like normal wife
• 10:47
  shit. Yeah, but you know, she like she
• 10:49
  left her stamp. She did and she's been been very
• 10:54
  like monumental to us in our movie watching anytime tenure.
• 10:58
  Anytime I look at her all I can hear is that line from slumber
• 11:03
  party massacre to where she's like I know what I can't
• 11:07
  remember to make her just saying like I know what she's getting
• 11:09
  for her birthday, a boyfriend. A boyfriend?
• 11:13
  Yeah, it's. So funny, I love her.
• 11:16
  Yeah. All right, Travis, it's time for
• 11:18
  our favorite game budget. Oh bug, Ted.
• 11:24
  Well, I feel like this is definitely going to be a bug,
• 11:26
  Ted. This is his first directed
• 11:28
  movie. Yes, they're not going to hand
• 11:29
  this guy a shit ton of money. They handed him a mad screaming,
• 11:32
  screaming mad George and they're like a mad, screaming mad
• 11:35
  George. Yeah.
• 11:37
  Yeah, yes, you are correct, $2,000,000 budget.
• 11:41
  Wow, that's that's not too bad, OK.
• 11:44
  I do not have any box office information as kind of
• 11:47
  previously suggested. Yeah, it seemed, well, we know
• 11:50
  that it bombed over here in the United States.
• 11:54
  It did well in the the UK and Italy and Spain it seemed to do
• 11:59
  a quiche. But over here I think it was
• 12:02
  more of a cult hit. Well, the good news is but
• 12:06
  nowadays on IMDb. It's got a score of 6. .5 out of
• 12:10
  10. That's really good.
• 12:11
  I'm really pleased that it has that score.
• 12:14
  That's shocking, yeah. OK I have 3 movies also from
• 12:19
  1989 and I chose a theme of movies that we unironically love
• 12:25
  despite what society tells us we should feel about them.
• 12:30
  That's perfect, man. All right.
• 12:32
  Cool. OK.
• 12:32
  What What do you got? What?
• 12:33
  What are the three? The first one's things.
• 12:38
  Dude, even people in the horror community don't want us to like
• 12:42
  that movie. Don't.
• 12:42
  Believe that we should enjoy things and I'm like no but it's
• 12:46
  so fun I'm. Looking at our Iron Mutant award
• 12:49
  over. Here.
• 12:50
  They're like you survived. Watching the things like this is
• 12:53
  an accomplishment. Like we had a fun time with
• 12:56
  that. We have watched it multiple
• 12:58
  times since then. We've recommended it to friends.
• 13:03
  Got. It that was a mistake maybe.
• 13:06
  No SO. One of the ones I recommended
• 13:08
  to, I was like, you're definitely going to like this.
• 13:10
  And I did get an angry text message from her, but it wasn't
• 13:13
  because of the movie itself. It was because she was watching
• 13:15
  it with her younger sister. And she was like, you couldn't
• 13:16
  have warned me that there's full frontal nudity in the 1st 30
• 13:19
  seconds. It's.
• 13:19
  A fucking horror movie. And I was like, I'm going to be
• 13:22
  honest, I forgot. Well, it's a horror movie.
• 13:24
  I think you should expect that in a good amount of them,
• 13:27
  especially the older ones. So in a first on this show, I
• 13:31
  don't have an exact release date.
• 13:33
  I just have month and year which is September 1989.
• 13:36
  That's. Fitting for this movie.
• 13:38
  Yeah. It has a budget of 3000 Canadian
• 13:43
  no worldwide gross in an IMDb score of 2.9 out of 10.
• 13:49
  Can we please talk about this movie sometime on the show?
• 13:52
  Like, I don't, I don't know how we'll have we're, we're
• 13:56
  struggling with society. I don't know how we'll be able
• 13:58
  to handle things. You know, all we'll have to do
• 14:03
  is just party, party. Party, Yeah.
• 14:07
  Oh man. OK.
• 14:08
  Second wait. What was the IMDb again?
• 14:10
  2.9. Oh.
• 14:13
  Oh yeah. That's that's right.
• 14:15
  Is that? Higher or lower than Doom
• 14:17
  Asylum? That is way lower.
• 14:20
  Doom Asylum is like four or something.
• 14:22
  It's like it's not even that bad, I don't think.
• 14:25
  No dude, they're not even in the same ballpark.
• 14:28
  Come on. Like in terms of quality of
• 14:31
  movie Doom Asylum. Yeah, Doom Asylum is 4.6.
• 14:34
  Yeah, no, there's no fucking way that it's going to be that low.
• 14:38
  God Things is really one of the trashiest movies I've ever seen,
• 14:42
  but God I love it because of that.
• 14:44
  OK, the second one, Halloween 5. Oh God, yes, I will love that
• 14:51
  movie. So I think people are.
• 14:53
  Cosplaying is that this year for.
• 14:55
  We are. I'm gonna go as Loomis with his
• 14:58
  ever shifting scars. And I'm going as.
• 15:02
  Tina. Yeah, can't wait.
• 15:05
  I think people are starting to shift on that. 1.
• 15:07
  We saw a couple of people like with posters and stuff getting
• 15:10
  them signed last year. Yeah, well, not only that, I
• 15:12
  think I've seen like some online discussion people be like, you
• 15:14
  know, it's not that bad. Yeah, it's actually a really fun
• 15:16
  movie. It's one of my favorite
• 15:18
  Halloween movies and like, I'm like a straight up OG with the
• 15:21
  Halloween movies. Yeah.
• 15:22
  Like yeah, I like. It it fucking goes, goes good.
• 15:26
  So that released October 13th 1989 on a budget of $5,000,000
• 15:31
  and it made a gross of $11.6 million.
• 15:34
  It has a very rude IMDb score of 4.9 out of 10.
• 15:37
  Oh, harsh. Which part of me wants to like,
• 15:41
  go back and listen to our episode on Halloween 5 and see
• 15:43
  if that's gone up or down any since then?
• 15:46
  I recommend. That's one of my favorite
• 15:48
  episodes that we've done. It's a fun time.
• 15:50
  It's a fun episode. I've listened to it and I'm
• 15:52
  like, I'm like, that holds up. Like we, we've had some rough
• 15:55
  episodes in our earlier days, but that's one that like really
• 15:58
  held up. I thought it was a good
• 16:00
  discussion. And then finally, Friday the
• 16:04
  13th party, Jason takes Manhattan.
• 16:07
  Yeah. Once again, I find myself
• 16:10
  wrapping this while we're on the show talking about this.
• 16:13
  Maybe it's it's a fun, it makes no goddamn sense, but it doesn't
• 16:18
  have to because it's Friday the 13th.
• 16:20
  We've got a zombie baby boy who built a shack in the woods and
• 16:25
  ignored his mother who just wanted to avenge his death like
• 16:27
  nothing about the franchise made sense from the very beginning.
• 16:30
  So just people that get upset about it are overthinking it.
• 16:33
  I think a lot of people are just upset that we don't get a lot in
• 16:35
  New York. Despite the name of the title.
• 16:39
  I think it's a fair criticism, but Despite that, I think it's a
• 16:42
  really fun movie still. And the whole sequence in New
• 16:46
  York is fine. Yeah, it's great and you get a
• 16:48
  decent amount of it, but you don't get like you don't get in
• 16:52
  roaming Manhattan the entire movie here's.
• 16:54
  The thing we could have Jason at sea or Jason takes Manhattan.
• 17:00
  Which one do you think's the one that's gonna draw people in?
• 17:04
  Plus, we know that everybody knew they were shooting in
• 17:07
  Manhattan cuz Kane Hotter has told this story several times
• 17:10
  about everybody being there in Times Square when they were
• 17:13
  shooting. I think they only did that in
• 17:15
  Manhattan when they did that part.
• 17:17
  I think they did the rest in Canada.
• 17:19
  Yeah, but I'm just saying like they knew it was a thing.
• 17:22
  Yeah, yeah. So I think they made the right
• 17:25
  call. Yeah, for sure.
• 17:26
  That's a fun movie. I like it.
• 17:28
  It's a good time. It's such a good time one.
• 17:30
  Of my favorite kills in him when the dude is boxing him on the
• 17:33
  roof and then he just like gets his head punched off.
• 17:35
  That's so amazing. One of our favorite bits that we
• 17:38
  still reference in our personal lives, like regularly, which is
• 17:43
  that you can't, yeah, you can't take the boot the boat away from
• 17:47
  the dock without toot Tooting. You got a toot too?
• 17:49
  It's. Basic.
• 17:50
  I mean, it's just common courtesy.
• 17:52
  Anyway, Jason takes mine hat and released July 28th 1989 on a
• 17:57
  budget of $5,000,000 and it made a gross of $14.3 million.
• 18:01
  It has a 4.24. What the fuck is that number?
• 18:07
  Oh it has a 4.5 out of 10 on IMDb.
• 18:11
  Yeah, wow. They you know what?
• 18:14
  You're right. All of those are really low
• 18:16
  rated. They all popped up as soon as I
• 18:20
  Googled 1989 horror movies and I was like, you know.
• 18:23
  What yes, things did immediately.
• 18:25
  Things was the. 1st. One no shit.
• 18:27
  And I think that's partially because my Google algorithm.
• 18:31
  Oh, they know, right? You trash monster.
• 18:34
  Here. You go.
• 18:35
  Here you go, here's your trashy shitty horror movies out front
• 18:38
  here. Oh, you're a tailspin, OK.
• 18:43
  OK, I got a lot of tag lines. Yeah.
• 18:46
  OK, SO2 poster versions. I know the first one, the bottom
• 18:50
  part. Well, there's the top part that
• 18:53
  goes with it. And they're very.
• 18:54
  Clearly good. With each other.
• 18:56
  I read the bottom part. The rich is always the rich have
• 19:00
  always fed off the poor. This time it's for real.
• 19:04
  Oh. No, I was.
• 19:05
  That's the other poster then that I saw.
• 19:07
  Society. Oh, well then we've seen
• 19:10
  multiple different Yeah posters. This one's a society.
• 19:15
  It's all about fitting in. That works on a few levels.
• 19:18
  I enjoy that. I like that, yeah.
• 19:21
  In Beverly Hills, what you fear is only the beginning.
• 19:26
  You are what they eat. That's it.
• 19:28
  You are what they eat. You know, if you don't belong,
• 19:32
  they'll eat you alive. I like that because Beverly
• 19:36
  Hills as a poor feels very intimidating to think about
• 19:40
  being in SO. Yeah.
• 19:44
  It's not what you think it is, which is just a good way to
• 19:49
  describe this movie to somebody who has never seen it.
• 19:52
  I like it. Yeah.
• 19:53
  Yeah, that is a good one. And like you're watching it with
• 19:55
  a friend, like a totally unsuspecting friend for the
• 19:58
  first time. And you see the opening credits
• 20:00
  with the shunting in the background.
• 20:01
  They're like, what's happening there?
• 20:03
  And you're like just you don't, you don't know.
• 20:05
  You. You don't.
• 20:06
  It's not what you think it is. You could just say like, oh, it
• 20:08
  never comes back up, don't worry about it.
• 20:12
  They just thought it would really like keep people in the
• 20:14
  seats for a minute. Don't really.
• 20:15
  You don't have to worry. About it.
• 20:18
  It doesn't matter of good breeding, really.
• 20:21
  Whoa. These are good tag lines.
• 20:24
  All of these. Are they really are I credit
• 20:26
  that to Brian, yes, now, well. We we've got our word cut out
• 20:29
  for us if we're going to come up with something.
• 20:31
  I know we've got, yeah, there's a lot of good tag lines right
• 20:36
  there. So I'm very pleased with that.
• 20:38
  Me too, that's always good. So I've got some fun facts, OK?
• 20:43
  And these mostly came from our special features with Brian
• 20:46
  Yezna, who despite making movies like this and Bride of
• 20:50
  Reanimator and the Dentist one and two, looks like your
• 20:55
  favorite grandpa, you know, like.
• 20:58
  No shit, man. I looked at him and I was
• 21:00
  thinking to myself, I look at this guy all the time at the
• 21:04
  grocery store and I would never think that this kind of guy
• 21:07
  right here would be this type of dude.
• 21:09
  I know he's also a producer on Silent Night Daily Night 4 cause
• 21:13
  Brian talked about working with him again I.
• 21:15
  Remember, Brian said he was basically the director.
• 21:17
  That's what he told us. He's like, yeah, he really just
• 21:20
  took control of that whole movie.
• 21:21
  Yeah, he said. He's a very hands on kind of
• 21:23
  person in general anyway, so it sounds like maybe directing
• 21:26
  suits him, which kind of fits in with what he was saying.
• 21:28
  So up until this point, he'd been a producer and he said one
• 21:31
  of the things about being a producer is you can have like an
• 21:34
  idea and you can get secure all the funding and you can make all
• 21:37
  of the things happen. But if you have a shit director,
• 21:40
  I'm paraphrasing here, but essentially what he said is if
• 21:43
  you have a shit director, the movie's not gonna happen.
• 21:45
  Yeah, I mean for him, a lot of people just bailed on it like
• 21:49
  this, from the sounds of it. Yeah, so he's already working on
• 21:53
  a project with Dan O'bannon called the man that ended up not
• 21:57
  going through. So that was always kind of a
• 21:58
  bummer to him. And then, you know, he's got
• 22:02
  this in the back of his mind. He's got all of these things he
• 22:04
  wants to do in the back of his mind.
• 22:06
  He kind of wants to start directing so that way he can
• 22:08
  have that element of control over making sure his projects
• 22:12
  reach through to the end. So he decides he wants to start
• 22:17
  directing. And what he's been told is that
• 22:20
  it it's good to maybe have a have some backup options 'cause
• 22:26
  he heard in a joke that every director's first movie is also
• 22:30
  his last movie. I'm butchering that.
• 22:32
  It was something about like. Yeah, he says somebody like one
• 22:35
  of his old friends said first time directors always make 2
• 22:39
  movies, their first movie and their last movie.
• 22:41
  There we go. Yeah.
• 22:42
  So he's like he, he negotiated because he he worked with Stuart
• 22:46
  Gordon on The Reanimator. Yes.
• 22:50
  He did a story for that. And he had the exclusive rights
• 22:53
  to that. So that also meant that he had
• 22:55
  the exclusive rights to the sequel.
• 22:57
  So what he did was he leveraged that so that way he could direct
• 23:00
  to the sequel and he could also he leveraged it for A2 movie
• 23:04
  deal. So that sequel that he knew was
• 23:06
  gonna be successful. And then society, which he
• 23:09
  picked the script because when he saw it, it was originally
• 23:11
  just for a blood cult. And it reminded him of that
• 23:14
  project with Dan O'bannon, the man that they'd worked on that
• 23:17
  just didn't fall follow through the way you know, they wanted it
• 23:21
  to. And so he worked with the
• 23:23
  writers and screaming man George, as we already discussed,
• 23:26
  developing it, making it a little bit weirder and kind of
• 23:34
  turning it into. He said he took the approach of
• 23:37
  like, what is the climax in a movie that I would want to see
• 23:41
  that I haven't seen before? Yeah.
• 23:43
  Which brings us to the shunting. Yeah, he was.
• 23:47
  I was really interested in getting the insight from him on
• 23:49
  this. He, he said he's like a huge
• 23:52
  special effects dude, which. Yes.
• 23:54
  And he loves to see that stuff play out on film.
• 23:56
  And then when he read the blood cult thing, he's like, well,
• 23:58
  that's kind of like a let down for a finale.
• 24:00
  So he's like, I just there was like a movie.
• 24:03
  Do you have it written down? There, yes, it was Doctor X, and
• 24:06
  they have the substance called Neo Flash.
• 24:08
  And he said that he saw it and he would have nightmares of
• 24:10
  people just kind of like, melting together.
• 24:12
  And he said he kind of combined that with, like, werewolves and
• 24:16
  other transformation horror movies and then also like, Dolly
• 24:20
  paintings, which are very surrealistic and screaming.
• 24:22
  Matt George was like, fuck yeah, can we start yesterday?
• 24:25
  Yeah. It's, it's a perfect combination
• 24:27
  there. Yeah.
• 24:29
  Like I. I appreciate him punching that
• 24:31
  up because like honestly if it was just a blood cult thing I
• 24:35
  think it like. It would have been a fine.
• 24:37
  Movie, But I don't think it would have had that lasting
• 24:40
  effect that you get from watching The Shunting at the
• 24:43
  end, because it really just makes such an impact.
• 24:46
  Yes, and we have seen that kind of referenced in other movies.
• 24:49
  I think most recently an Evil Dead rise.
• 24:52
  That was for sure. There's no way you can see that.
• 24:55
  And if, if you, if you know, you know kind of thing, there's I, I
• 24:59
  think all of our friends that we went with, we were all like
• 25:01
  shunting, shunting, shunting. I feel like that type of stuff,
• 25:06
  and this kind of goes along with Screaming Matt George, but I
• 25:10
  feel like that's like a common thing in Asian horror,
• 25:13
  especially video games. You see a lot of like people
• 25:17
  just like melded together like that type deals.
• 25:20
  Yeah, I've seen that a while, especially in video games.
• 25:23
  I think like, Fuck Evil Within would probably be one that I
• 25:27
  could think of, yeah. We also have a joke in the
• 25:33
  Futurama maybe where they go into the D&D game.
• 25:36
  Yeah. But before that they have like
• 25:38
  the demolition Derby and the chicks are singing the national
• 25:41
  anthem and they're like been combined due to a horrible
• 25:47
  accident. They're like.
• 25:48
  We're in pain. Yeah.
• 25:50
  So yeah, and I could definitely see Matt Groening being a fan of
• 25:55
  societies. Dude, I could too.
• 25:57
  Yeah, yeah. So, yeah, All in all, like just
• 26:03
  such a weird movie and such like a love letter to horror and
• 26:08
  things that are not seen very often or are considered taboo.
• 26:13
  I mean, he even touched kind of on the incest thing with it
• 26:16
  'cause it has kind of a big plot point in the movie.
• 26:19
  And he was like, you know, it is taboo.
• 26:22
  It's just written about extensively as one of the
• 26:26
  biggest taboos in horror films, and so he included that amidst
• 26:30
  all of this other body horror and psychological horror and
• 26:34
  sociological horror that he had going on with this movie.
• 26:38
  He was saying, like a lot of people apparently their
• 26:40
  takeaways that it's kind of like an like under the sheets of like
• 26:46
  a lot of horror movies or whatever.
• 26:47
  Like it's kind of like they're lying underneath the themes and
• 26:52
  he's like, let's just fucking embrace it.
• 26:53
  Like it's just like full on. Like, I mean, it's very much a
• 26:55
  genre film type deal. Also, we were shocked to find
• 26:59
  out that he worked on Honey I Shrunk the Kiss.
• 27:01
  Yeah. Which is an amazing thing.
• 27:04
  Like I'm like what the fuck? That guy made a children's
• 27:07
  movie. I'm kind of still sitting with
• 27:09
  that information. Stewart Gordon was also a part
• 27:12
  of it. I looked it up, they both did
• 27:14
  the story for this movie. Isn't that insane?
• 27:18
  So I've just put I've been watching Brian Yasun my entire
• 27:21
  life. That was his start.
• 27:22
  Wild. That was wild to think.
• 27:25
  He started with that fucking shit, I think, and then they
• 27:28
  went on to like a reanimator. Like man, what a career
• 27:32
  trajectory that is right there. All right, that's what I've got.
• 27:39
  OK? I think we're ready to talk
• 27:42
  about our good, bad, ugly and absurd.
• 27:43
  OK. Do I get to kick it off?
• 27:46
  You do get to kick it off because I've just done a lot of
• 27:48
  talking. OK, All right.
• 27:50
  So starting off the good, I think that this movie does a
• 27:53
  really good job of right off the bat, you kind of feel unsettled
• 27:58
  with the water of the dialogue that goes on because you can
• 28:01
  feel that there's not something quite right with this family
• 28:04
  here. And you get that paranoia that
• 28:08
  Bill is experiencing right from the get go.
• 28:10
  Like you can kind of understand why things aren't really adding
• 28:14
  up and everybody in his wife is just telling him, no, man, it's
• 28:17
  fine. Like, you know, this is just how
• 28:19
  everything is. You're totally, you're
• 28:20
  overreacting. Like, but then you see the
• 28:23
  parents interacting and you're like, that felt a little bit
• 28:25
  weird. I, you know, like I'm, there's
• 28:27
  something that's just going off in my brain that's making me
• 28:30
  think that's not natural. I made a joke part way through
• 28:33
  because we we wrote our own drinking game for this.
• 28:37
  And one of them is anytime Bill is gaslit.
• 28:39
  Yeah, and I made the joke like guess like gatekeep girl boss.
• 28:43
  And that honestly isn't far off from how a lot of them treat
• 28:47
  this movie. Yeah, it's really nice.
• 28:50
  Yeah. I think the surreal horror in
• 28:52
  this movie is some of the finest surreal horror like out there.
• 28:56
  Because like it, it starts. Try too hard.
• 28:59
  With it, like they just, it just feels natural, like it blends in
• 29:03
  so well with reality. Yeah, that's what I was gonna
• 29:06
  say. It starts off naturally.
• 29:07
  Like, I mean, you can get these little things, like, wow,
• 29:09
  there's something not quite right here.
• 29:11
  But then the movie slowly devolves into this weird fucking
• 29:15
  thing and by the time you get to the final act it just becomes
• 29:19
  like, what the fuck am I watching right now?
• 29:21
  By the time you get into the final act, you're like, well, we
• 29:24
  knew we were gearing up for something.
• 29:26
  I did, but you don't know. Yeah.
• 29:29
  And like all elements of the movie, you get like, people,
• 29:33
  like the acting, people are starting to act a little bit
• 29:35
  more over the top. You get the music.
• 29:37
  It's starting to get a little bit like carnival, like weird,
• 29:40
  freaky, and then you get the screaming Mad George effects
• 29:44
  that are going on during all of the shunting and shit and like
• 29:47
  it just becomes this whole experience and it's just such.
• 29:52
  And I, I love it too 'cause I'm we all know I'm a person that
• 29:55
  loves a practical effect, right? Obviously we both are, but where
• 30:00
  I play around with them and stuff.
• 30:02
  And you would think that I would be upset at seeing hardly none
• 30:06
  of it up until this point they completely.
• 30:09
  Back. Load that shit.
• 30:12
  They do all all of the. Time and effort clearly went
• 30:14
  into that. Yeah, in the best.
• 30:16
  Like it doesn't feel like a cop out in any way, shape or form.
• 30:19
  You get like this build up and then it's just a beautiful
• 30:21
  catharsis. That's what I think works for it
• 30:24
  because it is a build up and it all is like pay off basically.
• 30:29
  See, this is what I'm gonna use as reference when people are
• 30:34
  upset that I don't like the invitation.
• 30:38
  We've never liked the invitation.
• 30:40
  You and I both have agreed on that because it's got this build
• 30:43
  up and that pay off at the end. Like, oh, it's a mass
• 30:46
  conspiracy. Doesn't do it for me.
• 30:48
  You know what does it for me? The mother fucking shunting.
• 30:51
  And before you say anything, this movie did not ruin the
• 30:54
  invitation for me. I saw the invitation before I
• 30:56
  ever saw society. So.
• 30:58
  Yeah, no, I wouldn't even like I get what you're saying, but like
• 31:00
  I wouldn't even put them in like the same.
• 31:02
  No, I'm just saying like that's what I'm going to use is like a
• 31:05
  counterpoint next time somebody. Oh no.
• 31:07
  I yeah, you get this great build up and then it's like.
• 31:10
  I mean, that's kind of like one of my next points here is like,
• 31:13
  I mean, I think the commentary is awesome.
• 31:15
  Like it's great. It does a good job of getting
• 31:17
  this message across without being super heavy-handed.
• 31:20
  And then it also like, it doesn't come across as
• 31:23
  pretentious because I feel like something like this is something
• 31:25
  that you could be very like high on yourself.
• 31:28
  With Yeah. It'd be really easy to, but it
• 31:31
  doesn't take itself seriously enough for it to ever feel like
• 31:34
  that. Like it's, it's so silly in its
• 31:37
  design and execution and everything that you just have
• 31:41
  fun, but you get the message because you straight up say it.
• 31:44
  Yeah, Turd Ferguson at one point literally says the rich have
• 31:49
  always sucked off low class shit like you.
• 31:51
  I mean. It's just out there, but it's
• 31:53
  such an absurd movie. The entire time.
• 31:55
  You're not like, I can't take this seriously.
• 31:58
  Butt head, yeah. How can you have this kind of a
• 32:01
  movie and then also make a butt head joke like that and it just
• 32:05
  work and it doesn't feel dissonant?
• 32:07
  God damn it, that's amazing. It really, yeah.
• 32:10
  And that's one of the best payouts ever right there.
• 32:13
  Like right there you lay the ground like.
• 32:14
  You're a butt. Head and then like 40 minutes
• 32:17
  later it's like, hey, I guess I really.
• 32:18
  Am a butt head ha ha. And he like does the fart noises
• 32:22
  with his mouth. It's like, God is so stupid.
• 32:25
  So yeah, that's pretty much most of my good there.
• 32:28
  So what do you have to? Say the beautiful combination of
• 32:33
  Brian Yesna and screaming bad George.
• 32:35
  You both have such dedication to their craft and like watching
• 32:39
  Brian Yesna and I'm sorry, I'm doing the full name and it's
• 32:42
  because we're like like we're friends with Brian Bremer, who's
• 32:47
  also in this movie. So like it's and we just will
• 32:50
  like talk about Brian as Brian. So like it's.
• 32:54
  It's weird we have to do the full name for this.
• 32:57
  Yeah, they are just, he talks about in the special features
• 33:02
  about how, like, it's his directorial debut and he feels
• 33:05
  like it's very obvious. But I think he's just so
• 33:08
  dedicated to what he's doing. And I think Screaming Matt
• 33:12
  George is also so dedicated to what he's doing.
• 33:14
  And they're those kinds of creatives that have like, a
• 33:16
  specific vision and they follow through with it even if it
• 33:19
  doesn't make sense. Anyone else and you feel that in
• 33:22
  the final product? And I get that with society, you
• 33:26
  know what I mean? Yeah, it comes through and I
• 33:29
  think it's just like, love it or hate it, it's art.
• 33:33
  It is, yeah, for sure. Visually.
• 33:35
  And like, dramatically. Yes, we've already talked about
• 33:41
  the humor in this and they don't linger on it too much, even like
• 33:44
  the butt head thing, like it's not pounded into the ground.
• 33:47
  We get the rule of three with it.
• 33:49
  Yeah, you really do. Yeah.
• 33:50
  And it's great. We've got all of Clarissa's
• 33:53
  lines are just so weird and Devin just delivers them so
• 34:00
  matter of factly. Like you could think that maybe
• 34:03
  she almost wrote her own dialogue is how like Blasi, she
• 34:06
  delivers it like it's her actual way of speaking.
• 34:09
  And I think it's great because it fits her character so well,
• 34:11
  too. I'm kind of surprised with her
• 34:12
  honestly. I think she was like a Playboy
• 34:15
  Bunny or something like. That.
• 34:16
  Oh, really? Yeah, I remember in the Joe Bob
• 34:19
  episode they discussed that. Yeah, it's been a while since
• 34:22
  we've watched the Joe Bob version for this.
• 34:24
  Yeah, but I, I remember, yeah, like, it's pretty good acting
• 34:28
  for her. She did a really good job in
• 34:29
  this. And I, I think there's like, it
• 34:32
  makes me so sad too, like watching this because this is
• 34:36
  one of those things that like, I hate movies that try and like
• 34:42
  play up mental illness, like, oh, is it all in their head or
• 34:46
  is it real? And I think this does it in a
• 34:48
  way that, like you feel so sympathetic for Bill cuz like
• 34:54
  he's your protagonist and you're with him and it's like you can
• 34:57
  see him being gaslit in that way.
• 35:00
  And I think it just, it really reminds me of like folks with
• 35:04
  like paranoid schizophrenia who are literally afraid of the
• 35:07
  people around them, like up to their family.
• 35:10
  They're afraid of the food they eat.
• 35:11
  Like it's heartbreaking. And seeing him go through that
• 35:15
  is so heartbreaking. And it does it in a way that's
• 35:17
  not like stigmatizing towards mental illness.
• 35:20
  So yeah, I just, I have so much and every time I watch this
• 35:24
  movie I feel like I catch a different detail and I feel like
• 35:26
  the story state, like even though you get this tension
• 35:29
  building and everything and it feels like a big mystery.
• 35:31
  It's almost like a Jalo where it's all like building up
• 35:33
  towards something. And I like it.
• 35:35
  I have a fun time watching it. Whole mystery.
• 35:37
  Yeah, and every time watching it feels like the first time in a
• 35:41
  way. It's like.
• 35:42
  It's because we take long. Breaks.
• 35:44
  We do take long breaks with it. We don't Overwatch this.
• 35:47
  One yeah, yeah. It's it's you.
• 35:49
  Savor you savor it, savor the flavor you.
• 35:52
  Gotta do it when the mood strikes.
• 35:53
  Sometimes you just seen some absurd horror, and that's
• 35:55
  exactly what you get with this right here, Yes.
• 35:58
  OK, All right. So what do you think is bad
• 36:00
  about this movie, Travis? Well, there's some bad things.
• 36:03
  Like I feel like some things just kind of happened without
• 36:06
  any like, real explanation. Like, I mean, we get some like
• 36:09
  scenes where like he'll go to a house and he'll have like the
• 36:14
  scene will last five seconds and then it'll cut to the next
• 36:16
  location. Like, you know, like some of the
• 36:18
  stuff it doesn't necessarily feel like it's quite needed.
• 36:22
  It just kind of adds a little bit of jank to the movie there.
• 36:26
  But you know, I think overall I think it can kind of work to the
• 36:30
  vibe of the movie, like to the feel of it, because it's kind of
• 36:33
  keeping you off like on your toes there a little bit.
• 36:36
  But at the same time, like you still got to look at it as like
• 36:39
  a movie and think like, man, like, did we need this right
• 36:43
  here? And then you also have the
• 36:44
  things with fuck, what's her name, Chorus's mom that never
• 36:52
  really explanation. And it was really interesting
• 36:55
  hearing him explain that because he was talking about he doesn't
• 36:57
  even know what the whole thing with her and the hair was.
• 37:00
  And he's like, I mean, I like his approach because he said I'm
• 37:04
  very much like go with the IT was like the inspiration.
• 37:09
  And then you'll find the explanation afterwards.
• 37:12
  But apparently they went with the inspiration with that one
• 37:14
  and they never found an explanation.
• 37:16
  I'm gonna say I feel like her entire character was just
• 37:20
  leading up to a joke, which was at the end that the chief of
• 37:23
  police has a toupee and she's like pissed off that she can't
• 37:26
  pull off and eat his hair because it's not real.
• 37:28
  I feel like there's got to be something in there though,
• 37:31
  because she is part of that class, right?
• 37:33
  Yeah, she has to be because it's a whole like, they specifically
• 37:37
  stay. Yeah.
• 37:38
  Yeah. But it seems like Clarissa is in
• 37:40
  charge in a way. Honestly.
• 37:42
  Like I kind of get vibes of like loved ones where they where
• 37:47
  starry eyes has the like they boiled her brain a little bit,
• 37:51
  Yeah. I just had my own little head
• 37:54
  cannon and I don't know if it makes any sense because
• 37:56
  obviously these guys are shunting out of their fucking
• 37:58
  minds, but maybe she like shunted a little bit too much
• 38:02
  and messed with her. It's like they're meshing with
• 38:06
  all kinds of things. They're what if they like fucked
• 38:07
  up her brain? Like maybe somebody reached up a
• 38:09
  little bit too high inside her and like messed with her brain
• 38:13
  and maybe something like just kind of fucked with her.
• 38:16
  I don't know. Yeah, maybe.
• 38:17
  I kind of like that idea though. We don't have any explanation
• 38:20
  and I'm just grasping that straws here, but that's the only
• 38:22
  thing that legitimately makes sense to me.
• 38:24
  OK, You know, so, but yeah, I mean, we don't get explanation
• 38:29
  and that's enough for me to count it as a bad.
• 38:31
  Okay, it's just weird. But then again, it's a surreal
• 38:34
  movie and I like shit where you don't get explanation and it's
• 38:37
  just weird for the sake of being.
• 38:38
  Weird. And I think that's why I kind of
• 38:39
  let it slide. Yeah, I mean, I love that shit
• 38:42
  personally. I mean, really, I love that
• 38:44
  stuff. I love having just weird shit
• 38:46
  happen on film and not having anything explained about it
• 38:49
  because it makes me feel unsettled and like.
• 38:53
  That's what you want from an A surreal horror movie?
• 38:56
  Yeah, exactly. Unsettled.
• 38:57
  It's great, but I mean like. It's not OK this It's the
• 39:01
  difference between like surreal horror versus like what Gabe in
• 39:05
  the office describes the cinema of the unsettling.
• 39:08
  Where I love that shit too. That's something so.
• 39:10
  Good. Like showing you a bunch of
• 39:12
  gross shit and you're like. Maybe the lack of narrative,
• 39:16
  Maybe viewers think the director.
• 39:18
  Was aware that a lack, not even narrative is comforting to the
• 39:22
  audience. Thank you.
• 39:25
  No, I OK, yeah, I I kind of disagree because I think she's
• 39:30
  in the movie just enough to like serve a purpose and have a
• 39:33
  stupid joke and I'm OK with. It.
• 39:36
  I'm OK with it too but like I'm I'm going to criticize it where
• 39:39
  I feel like. It needs to be criticized some
• 39:41
  ways. Mrs. Carlin is a Deus Ex machina
• 39:44
  because she attacks Turd Ferguson at one point.
• 39:47
  So. She pins Billy.
• 39:49
  No, she does pins. Yeah.
• 39:51
  Yeah, you're right. Yeah, never mind.
• 39:55
  My bad. Is kind of similar to what
• 39:57
  you're saying, where it's like a loose thread, which is a.
• 40:00
  Heidi Kozak just kind of fucks off halfway through the movie
• 40:04
  and we don't see her again. She's not really needed after
• 40:07
  the. Fact.
• 40:07
  But is she part of society? No, she wants to be, but she
• 40:11
  can't be and they keep blocking her out because she's not one of
• 40:14
  them. But her friend is a member of
• 40:16
  society. Is maybe she being groomed too?
• 40:19
  Was she though? Like I thought I saw what looked
• 40:22
  like her but I couldn't tell if. It was.
• 40:23
  I feel like that was her. I thought it just like they.
• 40:26
  Lingered on her face just enough that I was like, that definitely
• 40:29
  looks like her friend. And I'm looking around for Heidi
• 40:32
  and I'm not seeing her anywhere, which is just a shame.
• 40:34
  In general, every movie could use more Heidi Kozak.
• 40:37
  I agree. I think really it could have
• 40:39
  been, yeah, they could have been the same thing that they were
• 40:41
  doing with Bill where they were just going to serve her up as a
• 40:43
  meal one day. Maybe.
• 40:46
  But I mean, that's her whole point.
• 40:47
  She wants to be a part of it, but she can't, and she doesn't
• 40:50
  understand why. Yeah.
• 40:52
  She's she's so obsessed with social status and like that one
• 40:57
  right there, that's one where she can't be allowed.
• 41:01
  Yeah, I just, I don't know, it's, it's her whole character.
• 41:05
  I feel like it's just kind of a loose thread for me and that
• 41:09
  that's upsetting. And I'm also gonna say the other
• 41:11
  bad is the name Ted Ferguson. Because as I've referenced
• 41:14
  multiple times already, all I can think of is the Saturday
• 41:17
  Night Live SNL skit Turd Ferguson.
• 41:21
  And it took everything I mean not to write it in my notes.
• 41:23
  So if you are a bug titter, budget tier patron and you see
• 41:28
  Turd Ferguson in my notes, mind your business.
• 41:31
  I am who I am. I thought it but I I never wrote
• 41:35
  it. OK, so stuff at your back.
• 41:39
  Ugly then I guess like, you know, like the whole like all of
• 41:45
  this type shit. I mean really the whole the
• 41:48
  whole point of the movie is a very ugly subject.
• 41:51
  I mean the rich feet off of the poor.
• 41:53
  Like it's a very real thing that happens and it calls attention
• 41:56
  to it and it's a really shitty system.
• 42:00
  Yeah, I it, it really is just like it society and 'cause it is
• 42:07
  society like, you know, we build our structures and rules and
• 42:12
  everything in a way that benefits the rich so much more
• 42:14
  than the poor. And if you try and advocate for
• 42:16
  the lower class, it's like, well, maybe bootstraps and the.
• 42:24
  Thank you. Yeah.
• 42:27
  Like, but it just, I think the, the social commentary is just
• 42:31
  hit right there on the head. And I think also the whole like.
• 42:34
  The. Elite just having such a
• 42:37
  different lifestyle than us. I think there's an interesting
• 42:40
  commentary there too. I think if you actually rubbed
• 42:44
  elbows with some of the higher up people and watch this movie,
• 42:46
  you probably see a lot of similarities.
• 42:48
  Like, you know what? People really are acting that
• 42:50
  weird. Yeah, 'cause it's just like
• 42:52
  you're so distanced from what my reality actually looks like.
• 42:57
  They were talking. That's just, it's so interesting
• 43:01
  to see it played out in like a horror way.
• 43:03
  Like OK, well we know that this is really a thing, but what if
• 43:06
  what the elite are doing isn't just like being obscenely rich,
• 43:09
  but it's also like melding into one another in a feeding fuck
• 43:14
  frenzy? They were talking, I mean like
• 43:16
  one, there was one dude in Congress or something that got
• 43:20
  like kicked out or whatever because he like outed that a lot
• 43:24
  of the Republicans were having like these actual orgies like
• 43:28
  they have like a. Whole group of people come.
• 43:30
  Over there and do this shit and I'm like, are they literally
• 43:33
  shunting over there or like in the movie they're guys like I
• 43:35
  got a promise in position for you, Ted, over in Washington.
• 43:38
  And I'd be supportive of the Republicans have an orgies if
• 43:42
  they just own that shit instead of acting like sex is amoral.
• 43:46
  It depends on the type of orgy. Well, yeah, if they're having
• 43:49
  like a shunting type orgy where the like they're unwilling
• 43:52
  participants, yes. That's what I'm thinking.
• 43:54
  That's the deal here. I mean, yeah.
• 43:56
  Listen, I'm assuming even positive intent.
• 43:59
  Best case scenario you. Should probably not do that.
• 44:01
  I know I probably shouldn't. Yeah.
• 44:04
  I mean, I'm generally like, give people the benefit of the doubt,
• 44:07
  but in this case, no, like it's probably as bad as you.
• 44:10
  It's probably worse than most people expect in most cases with
• 44:13
  this type of shit. But yeah, and I think that also
• 44:15
  kind of ties into the whole intest thing too, which is
• 44:18
  obviously ugly in and of itself. But then you think about like
• 44:22
  the royal bloodlines and how there is a lot of like
• 44:25
  inbreeding that happens to keep those bloodlines, quote UN quote
• 44:28
  pure. So I think that's really like an
• 44:33
  interesting parallel as well. Yeah, you also get the scenes of
• 44:36
  the dad and the mom and Jenny just like in their underwear and
• 44:41
  he's like massaging her shoulders and shit.
• 44:44
  If that wasn't their daughter, I would think they're a really
• 44:46
  wholesome throuple, but because it's their daughter, it gives me
• 44:49
  major ick. Which is?
• 44:50
  It's supposed to, but yeah. OK, some absurd stuff.
• 44:55
  And yes, of course this movie is entirely absurd.
• 44:57
  So that's that's a cop out. I'm not allowing it this time.
• 45:00
  Yeah, we can't say the entire movie, and I think we need to
• 45:03
  just take the shunting off the table as well.
• 45:04
  Yeah, it's, I didn't include it because it's it's that's low
• 45:07
  hanging fruit, right? Yes, right here.
• 45:10
  So First off, I've got the parents discussing the slug crop
• 45:15
  like at the beginning there with Bill they.
• 45:18
  Compared one of them to Bill. Yeah, now when?
• 45:21
  They're different colors. That's Bill, but that's.
• 45:24
  A real, that's a real thing because we like, we do the show
• 45:26
  like, oh, that's Scout. That's Zoe.
• 45:28
  Yeah, all. The.
• 45:29
  Time, like we'll be in movies and like, we'll see somebody or
• 45:33
  something acting a certain way and like, one of us will just
• 45:35
  lean over and be like, Scout, yeah.
• 45:38
  That was the most loving thing. I think that happened from my
• 45:40
  family. Oh, that's totally a bill.
• 45:42
  Yeah. That's what right there.
• 45:43
  It's just like Bill. Yeah.
• 45:45
  That was so weird. You can tell that slugs are
• 45:48
  poor. One of my favorite all time
• 45:50
  lines in all of cinema. I have some tea here.
• 45:54
  Would you like cream, sugar or do you want me to pee in it?
• 45:58
  That's such a fucking weird line, man.
• 46:00
  I put that, I took a clip of that and I put that on TikTok
• 46:05
  years ago back in 2021. That shit still gets people like
• 46:08
  coming. Like what the fuck?
• 46:10
  My my older sister, who I apologize to at the end of last
• 46:14
  week's episode when I announced this was the upcoming one, she
• 46:18
  saw that clip. That was the first time she'd
• 46:20
  ever seen or heard of this clip of this movie.
• 46:23
  And she messaged me directly and she was like, I don't know what
• 46:27
  movie this is but I never want to watch it.
• 46:29
  She saw that clip. Yeah, She said something to the
• 46:32
  to the cover of it too, which is just a bunch of people shunting.
• 46:36
  And she's like, what the hell. Like when?
• 46:38
  Every time we've literally every time we've ever.
• 46:40
  Mentioned it, she messages me and she's like I need you to not
• 46:43
  so I just one less listen this week guaranteed.
• 46:48
  And my final absurd is that Julius Caesar and Genghis Khan
• 46:52
  were shunters. It's confirmed.
• 46:55
  It says that is Canon that they did the shunt back then because
• 47:00
  that's what the judge talks about.
• 47:01
  He's like. Yet they they were prominent
• 47:03
  shunters back then. This is where the bloodlines
• 47:05
  comes from. OK, that that's my absurd.
• 47:08
  What what you have? OK, so I've already talked about
• 47:12
  the Butthead thing. I want to talk about the statue
• 47:15
  that's in Chinese bathroom. Richard pointed out to you and
• 47:18
  I've never noticed before, but it's a very large golden statue
• 47:23
  or bronze statue. It's a figure, and it is a stick
• 47:27
  man filleting himself. I think the back story behind
• 47:32
  that is whenever the dad discovered that he can
• 47:36
  manipulate his body, he's like, hey, honey, watch this.
• 47:38
  And he just started doing that. And they're like, Oh my God, we
• 47:41
  need to like, capture this and make it immortals.
• 47:45
  I also the judge absorbing David's beauty mark.
• 47:50
  Oh my God, yeah. Like, why are you going on and
• 47:53
  on about this, you greasy hog? And then it pays off because
• 47:57
  he's absorbed the beauty mark, which kind of answers some
• 48:00
  questions that I had as the shunting was going on, which is
• 48:03
  like, well, do you just absorb traits from each other?
• 48:05
  And apparently the answer is yes.
• 48:07
  Well, it makes me wonder how much of them is the original of
• 48:11
  them and how much is pieces that they have collected and made a
• 48:16
  part of them? OK, well well now society has
• 48:18
  become a ship of Theseus situation and I want, I dare a
• 48:25
  philosophy professor out there to use this as a as a logic
• 48:30
  problem. I like Brian Yosen was talking
• 48:33
  about one of the reasons he knew that this was gaining traction
• 48:36
  overseas is some guy in Italy used this movie as his
• 48:39
  dissertation, and he wrote it and sent it to him in full
• 48:43
  Italian. He's like, yeah, I wrote my
• 48:44
  whole thing on this movie here. Absolutely.
• 48:47
  I love that. Yeah, it was great.
• 48:48
  I'm I'm curious to know what it was about exactly.
• 48:52
  Yeah, So I'd, I'd say like we're just pulling absurds out from,
• 48:58
  we're finding hay needles in a haystack, you know?
• 49:01
  It's just home. It is.
• 49:02
  Yeah. OK, so but.
• 49:04
  In the best possible fucking way.
• 49:05
  Let's rate it. OK, this is is it?
• 49:14
  No, fuck it. I'll give it A10.
• 49:16
  OK, this is a weird ass movie, but it's like perfect in so many
• 49:20
  ways that I just can't describe. Well, I did.
• 49:24
  I actually just did. So you've heard of all of the
• 49:28
  reasons why I think that this may be a perfect movie.
• 49:30
  It's just such a weird ass movie, but it hits so hard.
• 49:33
  It's so good. For me this is an easy 9.
• 49:38
  Perhaps you will be able to talk me up to 10.
• 49:40
  OK before the end of this discussion.
• 49:43
  It's just there's a couple of, like, lingering plot lines that
• 49:46
  I want addressed. That's fair.
• 49:48
  So yeah, like, I want to know what happens to Mrs. Carlyn
• 49:50
  after she tackles Turd Ferguson. And I want to know what happens
• 49:54
  with Shauna, AKA Heidi Kozak. And you know what?
• 49:59
  I want Marty to become the new Turd Ferguson now that he's,
• 50:02
  like, alive. Ye ish.
• 50:05
  Yeah, yeah, I guess he is at this stage, this whole thing.
• 50:08
  So yeah. They're yeah, no, he's there at
• 50:09
  the shunting. You're right.
• 50:10
  Yeah. OK.
• 50:12
  OK. So 9.5 is our starting average.
• 50:15
  Starting average. OK.
• 50:16
  So I think we should get into this one.
• 50:18
  I agree. Let's do it.
• 50:21
  OK. We start off at a noise house.
• 50:24
  Yes. And then we see a very sweaty
• 50:27
  Bill Whitney squelching in. We hear a lot of whispering and
• 50:32
  giggling and sounds. This is squelching a result of
• 50:35
  his like sweat that he's just gonna like that's accumulated.
• 50:39
  At this. Point.
• 50:41
  In our drinking game that we made is one of the rules is.
• 50:45
  That those people are sweaty. Thank you.
• 50:49
  It's. Like, 'cause it happens so
• 50:52
  often, yeah, like. So sweaty.
• 50:55
  So sweaty and he's very sweaty and he spulches in as a result.
• 51:00
  I do think it's as a result of this.
• 51:03
  He sneaks into the kitchen and he grabs a knife, and then all
• 51:07
  of a sudden, the lights come on, sounds stop, and his mom just
• 51:10
  goes Bill. And then it.
• 51:12
  I feel like I said that like April and Jack gets to Bill.
• 51:17
  Yeah. You feel?
• 51:17
  Yeah. And it cuts to him in his
• 51:23
  therapist's office. His therapist is apparently
• 51:25
  named Doctor Cleveland. And I literally didn't bother
• 51:27
  that until the credits rolled. Yeah, I didn't either.
• 51:30
  They never say his name once. They say thanks Cleave at one
• 51:33
  point and I literally thought it was one of the paramedics was
• 51:35
  named Cleave so. That's my thought too, yeah.
• 51:39
  And good thing that this guy's getting therapy because like, he
• 51:43
  definitely needs it with all the shit going on in his life.
• 51:45
  But bad thing that his therapist is also I guess like gatekeep
• 51:49
  girl bossers. Yeah, he's a member of society,
• 51:51
  but we don't know that. Yet we don't know that.
• 51:53
  Yet so Bill was there. He's just kind of talked.
• 51:55
  He says very real therapy things.
• 51:57
  Yeah, Yeah. Sorry, I didn't.
• 51:59
  I'm not meaning to cut you off. I'm sorry.
• 52:01
  It's OK, I'm. Just really excited to talk
• 52:04
  about this. So yeah, he's there talking to
• 52:06
  him and then he grabs an apple and he takes a bite off and
• 52:09
  there's a shit ton of worms inside the apple.
• 52:11
  So that's how you know things are funky from the get go.
• 52:14
  And then you cut to a the title card of society and then you get
• 52:18
  to see like slow motion shunting going on in the background.
• 52:22
  But you don't really know what's happening.
• 52:24
  You're just like wow this is weird, but we just saw an apple
• 52:28
  filled with worms so. It's really weird.
• 52:31
  Yeah. And like, it is a very good
• 52:35
  tactic to keep people invested because if you see that under,
• 52:40
  like, behind the title of society, you're like, OK, what
• 52:43
  the fuck is this all building up to?
• 52:44
  Let's find out. Yes, yeah, absolutely.
• 52:48
  We cut to Bill and Milo playing some basketball out in there.
• 52:53
  I want to say driveway, but a driveway basketball hoop is for
• 52:57
  a much, much lower tax bracket. He essentially has his own
• 53:01
  basketball court out. There no I one of my half court,
• 53:04
  one of my best friends was a in this he's he was probably a
• 53:08
  member of society growing up and he had a basketball court in his
• 53:12
  not court. He had a basketball goal in his
• 53:14
  driveway. They hear a van approach and
• 53:17
  it's Jenny, Bill's sister. It's his.
• 53:20
  It's her ex David Blanchard, and he calls up to let Jenny know
• 53:25
  he's there and she's like, he can't see me, can you please get
• 53:27
  rid of him? The dude vanished like he
• 53:29
  pulled. Up and then they like go.
• 53:31
  Over there, like, oh, that's Blanchard.
• 53:32
  They go to his van and he's gone.
• 53:33
  Like he's already in the. House.
• 53:35
  And like, silently, apparently. Yeah, exactly, 'cause this dude
• 53:40
  managed to get all the way up into Jenny's closet and hidden
• 53:43
  as she like between when she reached out the window to ask
• 53:47
  Bill to get rid of David and her going back to get dressed.
• 53:51
  Yeah, so she's up there, she's getting dressed, and then he's
• 53:54
  like, she catches him peeking in the closet.
• 53:56
  Which, yeah. Well cuz she So she goes to get
• 53:58
  her earrings out of their little box and one is missing so she
• 54:01
  looks down to see if she dropped it somewhere and as she's
• 54:03
  reaching for it in the closet she sees his face.
• 54:06
  And I love this cuz this is kind of a subversion of like horror
• 54:10
  movie tropes cuz a lot of times like an eye peeking out between
• 54:13
  garments in a closet is meant for the audience but not for
• 54:16
  like the character that should see it.
• 54:19
  But she sees it and she screams. And so Bill runs in and he
• 54:22
  starts like beating up on on Blanchard and he takes them out
• 54:25
  and he's like. You're out of here, pal.
• 54:27
  And then Jim and Nan walk in and they're like Bill Jen.
• 54:32
  Interesting that they call them Bill and Jen and not Billy or
• 54:35
  Jenny like everyone else, but also not William and Jennifer.
• 54:39
  Yeah, you know what? That seems more like high class.
• 54:42
  It's. William and Jennifer, Yeah.
• 54:43
  It's just like such a weird middle of the ground.
• 54:45
  Speaking of your best friend, how we refer to him as Billiam.
• 54:50
  His name? Is Will and his mom.
• 54:52
  His name is Jennifer. My God, I didn't even make that
• 54:56
  connection. Yeah, OK.
• 54:58
  Weird God. I'm leaving that in because
• 55:01
  that's not enough identifying information I think, for people
• 55:04
  that don't know. That's true because they don't
• 55:05
  even call on that. Yeah, Yeah, he does.
• 55:06
  That's what I mean. Like nobody goes with that.
• 55:08
  He doesn't even go about that. Okay, so we get a little bit
• 55:12
  more of that incestuous stuff here.
• 55:15
  We get Bill. Jen asked Bill to zip her up.
• 55:19
  So they're a little bit touchy. They're not shy about this
• 55:24
  stuff. Well, no.
• 55:25
  Asking somebody to zip you up, that's whatever.
• 55:27
  But it's the way he kind of touches the damp patch on her.
• 55:31
  Yeah. Your dad and.
• 55:32
  It's also the little bulge in her back that starts to happen.
• 55:37
  Is she getting excited? Yeah, no, ladies get back
• 55:39
  boners. Didn't you know that?
• 55:40
  I did not know that. Yeah, maybe you're part of
• 55:43
  society then, if this is such an obvious thing to you.
• 55:46
  I mean, Travis, I don't know how you haven't noticed me morphing
• 55:50
  into you at various times. I've never.
• 55:53
  You know I've. Never, it's never crossed my
• 55:55
  mind. So they they kind of have like a
• 56:00
  little bit of dialogue here. She's really excited.
• 56:02
  She has her coming out party that's coming out.
• 56:04
  She's like, it's not that big of a deal.
• 56:06
  I don't know why people are making such a big deal of it,
• 56:08
  but whatever. Yeah, and he's got like a debate
• 56:11
  to be the student body president.
• 56:14
  And he's also got a basketball game.
• 56:16
  He's Teen Wolf right now, people.
• 56:18
  You know, you know he's Michael J Fox in the prime of his.
• 56:22
  Did you notice his license plates?
• 56:24
  Whoops, hoops, whoops. That's his identity, man.
• 56:27
  He's like I'm a Hooper. And we never.
• 56:31
  I am so disappointed that out of all the things this movie gives
• 56:35
  us, it's not one weird basketball montage.
• 56:38
  Cause like when we cut to the school after this scene, we see
• 56:44
  Heidi Kozak as Shawna cheering. Had a presidential debate, Yeah.
• 56:50
  And it had a. Debate.
• 56:51
  So like at first it was like, oh, is this a pep rally?
• 56:54
  And then it's like, no, she's just introducing Bill to do his
• 56:58
  debate for the student body president election.
• 57:01
  And then there's Marty, played by our buddy.
• 57:04
  Brian Bramer. Yeah, and he's just playing it
• 57:07
  up as the nerdy guy there today. Very like haughty too.
• 57:11
  Yeah, very uptight, and they're currently debating about the
• 57:15
  wardrobe policy at. The dress.
• 57:19
  Code yeah. Yeah, and.
• 57:21
  He immediately gets distracted by like some Basic Instinct shit
• 57:25
  from Clarissa the audience, yeah.
• 57:27
  Is that they're opening her legs and just like, yeah, here you
• 57:30
  go. Like is she trying to sabotage
• 57:32
  it? Yeah, I think so.
• 57:34
  I. Wonder why?
• 57:36
  The. Because.
• 57:37
  She's part of the Society of the Shunt.
• 57:39
  Yeah, yeah. She's on their team at this
• 57:41
  point, right? OK, yeah.
• 57:42
  So yeah, he's over there trying to give the whole debate or the
• 57:46
  speech. He he sounds back into it and
• 57:48
  then he like, tries to make a fool out of Marty.
• 57:51
  Everybody else is eating that shit up.
• 57:52
  Yeah, it it's very typical. So like, at first you're like,
• 57:58
  OK, cool, I see how this guy's the protagonist and maybe he's
• 58:00
  haven't got some kind of a breakdown, something bad's
• 58:03
  happening in his life. But we don't even know that no
• 58:07
  yet. So we cut to him.
• 58:09
  He's going back to his therapist.
• 58:11
  He's filling himself because he kicked ass in that debate.
• 58:13
  He's like, yeah, I fucking killed that guy.
• 58:15
  That guy is going to not have any chance of being president.
• 58:18
  And then the therapist is like, all right, well, now you're
• 58:20
  feeling good about yourself. How are you feeling about your
• 58:22
  family now? And.
• 58:23
  I just want to say as somebody who's done plenty of therapy in
• 58:26
  my life, this is so real. The way you like.
• 58:28
  Talk to a therapist that you've been going to for a while
• 58:32
  because like, he was just like, guess what?
• 58:34
  Today was an awesome day, nerd. Like Kick.
• 58:37
  Some ass today. Yeah.
• 58:39
  Totally shat on a nerd girl opened her legs in front of me
• 58:42
  it was awesome my girlfriend cheered for me it's great and
• 58:47
  he's like all right well so how do you feel about your family
• 58:49
  he's like well I don't think that they really love me like
• 58:52
  they do gin I. Sometimes think I'm adopted.
• 58:56
  Yeah. We just stay out of each other's
• 58:59
  lives. It's fun.
• 59:01
  Yeah, they don't approve of me. They don't approve of my
• 59:03
  friends. Yeah, so.
• 59:06
  And then the therapist says you're going to get exactly what
• 59:10
  you deserve. And Bill goes a what?
• 59:13
  Now he goes, no, I just mean you're gonna be a wonderful
• 59:15
  contribution to society. And Bill's like, well, that's a
• 59:18
  weird way to word it, but I'm not gonna think any deeper on
• 59:20
  that right now 'cause I gotta go to the.
• 59:22
  Beach. Yeah.
• 59:25
  So before then he's back at his house, he's gonna go get some
• 59:29
  sunscreen because they need that to go out to the beach.
• 59:32
  So he goes into the shower where his sister's showering.
• 59:35
  Loud is this fucking shower because these rooms are.
• 59:39
  Her. Room is as big as our entire
• 59:40
  house. It's gigantic, yeah.
• 59:43
  And like the shower itself is probably as big as our bathroom.
• 59:46
  It's huge, yeah. You can hear it from in the hall
• 59:50
  and he's got. Jen Hey Jenny, I need some
• 59:55
  sunscreen. And like, it just gets louder.
• 59:59
  He doesn't, goes in, doesn't. Have any issues walking in on
• 1:00:02
  his sister in the shower so he walks in there and then he.
• 1:00:05
  Stares for an uncomfortably long time.
• 1:00:08
  Well OK, I think it's kind of Fair considering like he takes a
• 1:00:11
  glimpse and then he sees boobs on her back and then he takes a
• 1:00:17
  closer look and it's her entire torso completely backwards.
• 1:00:22
  No, first of all, I wanted to be clear that I would never do this
• 1:00:26
  in the 1st place. But for a guy that's already in
• 1:00:30
  there and then he happens to take a glance over there just in
• 1:00:33
  his position. Like I understand looking for a
• 1:00:36
  while because what you're looking at isn't exactly
• 1:00:39
  natural. It's his sister and even if he
• 1:00:43
  caught a glance, what you immediately do is like, that's
• 1:00:48
  my sister, not going to look any farther.
• 1:00:50
  I definitely just saw something weird, my mind playing tricks on
• 1:00:52
  me. That's immediately what I would
• 1:00:55
  do. I agree, yeah.
• 1:00:57
  I mean, I agree that like I in the 1st place, I wouldn't even
• 1:00:59
  be putting myself in this position so.
• 1:01:02
  But like, yeah, he's, he's seeing something weird here and
• 1:01:06
  he like, so. A family with 15 bedrooms in
• 1:01:09
  their house has got to have more than one bottle of sunscreen,
• 1:01:12
  right? Like.
• 1:01:13
  Maybe she hoards it all in her bathroom, You know, I don't
• 1:01:16
  know. But he goes in there and he is
• 1:01:20
  so confused by what he's seeing from behind the shower screen
• 1:01:22
  that he opens up the door and then she's back to normal and
• 1:01:25
  she's like, Bill, get out of here.
• 1:01:27
  She's super pissed off. She was completely ready for him
• 1:01:29
  to open that door too, because when he opens it, she's already
• 1:01:32
  got the nips and Ariel is covered in a washcloth on her
• 1:01:35
  vajay and she's like. Bell.
• 1:01:38
  It was really funny seeing the the thing behind there too,
• 1:01:42
  because you don't get a queer look at it because it's like,
• 1:01:44
  what kind of glass is that? They call it.
• 1:01:48
  I think it's like pebbled glass. Yeah, something like that.
• 1:01:51
  Like you can't get a queer image, but like, it looks like
• 1:01:54
  an inflatable doll. Just kind of like just flailing
• 1:01:57
  about in there. Yeah.
• 1:02:00
  OK, so yeah, he's freaked out, but whatever, he's going to the
• 1:02:02
  beach with his girlfriend, so he's having.
• 1:02:03
  A good day. And his parents are even kind of
• 1:02:05
  nice to him for a minute. They compare him to a slug in
• 1:02:08
  like a cute way. And then they're happy that he's
• 1:02:11
  going to be a class president. And then when he starts to say
• 1:02:13
  more about his life, they're like, no, that's all the love we
• 1:02:16
  have for you. Don't care, just feedback by
• 1:02:17
  curfew. So he goes to his hoop and Jeep
• 1:02:22
  and there's a Ken in it and he goes, huh, that's weird.
• 1:02:24
  This is one of my favorite things cuz he picks it up and
• 1:02:28
  does the dog toy squeak and then he throws it up and then it
• 1:02:31
  falls back in his Jeep and wherever it lands the sound guy
• 1:02:34
  did a little extra beeping. It's like really faint.
• 1:02:38
  I actually imagined the doll Thing was like a wink and a nod
• 1:02:41
  to Heidi Kozak and the somber party massacre franchise, even
• 1:02:45
  though the doll Thing was in part one.
• 1:02:47
  Oh yeah, imagine. It's all interconnected.
• 1:02:49
  Yeah. So he's making out with her
• 1:02:52
  hardcore on the beach. And I think they would have done
• 1:02:54
  more if they were part of society and didn't care about
• 1:02:58
  people seeing them. Oh yeah, absolutely.
• 1:03:00
  In that way. And she's like, if you really
• 1:03:03
  loved me, you'd get us invited to Turd Ferguson's party this
• 1:03:06
  weekend. Yeah, they're over there, like
• 1:03:08
  right next to them, almost on the beach.
• 1:03:11
  As they're having this conversation, two kids do an
• 1:03:15
  army crawl these. Fucking kids, man.
• 1:03:18
  They roll up in there and they take the sunscreen and squirt it
• 1:03:20
  all over Bill and. So much on Shauna.
• 1:03:25
  Yeah, like half the bottle is on her.
• 1:03:28
  And so Bill runs after them and tackles them.
• 1:03:31
  And you know what? Deserved, but they still managed
• 1:03:33
  to get away and he's still in the sand and when he looks up he
• 1:03:36
  sees Clarissa, who basically imitates a cumshot.
• 1:03:41
  Yeah, I was gonna say she does to him what he wants to do to
• 1:03:44
  her. So yeah, he she cums on him with
• 1:03:48
  her sunscreen. Or like cumscreen, am I right?
• 1:03:53
  Sorry, mom. Yeah, and.
• 1:03:55
  She just kind of walks away and gives it to him and then he
• 1:03:58
  talks. This is where you can.
• 1:03:59
  Tell that she's definitely still like playing with him in a
• 1:04:02
  society way. I think that at this point you
• 1:04:04
  can tell that she's starting to get a little interest in.
• 1:04:08
  Them. I think she's a little amused by
• 1:04:09
  him, but. Yeah.
• 1:04:12
  And as he gets up and starts to walk towards Turd, he runs into
• 1:04:16
  a woman who we find out later is Clarissa's mom.
• 1:04:19
  She's just kind of standing there and giving him like this
• 1:04:21
  dumbfounded look and she just kind of grunts and then she
• 1:04:25
  never has any line of dialogue. That's it.
• 1:04:28
  So there is a character in the Myron Bulletar books by Harlan
• 1:04:34
  Coben. And this is very much on my mind
• 1:04:35
  because the newest one just came out.
• 1:04:37
  So I've been reading it and there's a character named Big
• 1:04:40
  Cindy. She is wrestling partners with
• 1:04:43
  one of Myron's best friends, Esperanza, and she's like 65 and
• 1:04:48
  300 lbs. And she wears, like, insanely
• 1:04:52
  bright makeup all the time. She's like, people are gonna
• 1:04:55
  stare at me anyway, so I just wanna give them something to
• 1:04:57
  stare at, OK? And in my head, I always picture
• 1:05:00
  a larger version, a larger and Latina version of Mrs. Carlin.
• 1:05:04
  And that sounds pretty accurate. Yeah, that's the face I picture
• 1:05:07
  with her. So he goes over there to Ted and
• 1:05:11
  he's like, hey, man, you hear of anything good going on this
• 1:05:15
  weekend? And Ted's like, yeah, you know
• 1:05:17
  what? I don't really think there's
• 1:05:18
  anything cool going on. And funny enough, we got Marty
• 1:05:20
  there hanging out with him, too, and his fucking Harvard
• 1:05:23
  sweatshirt on the beach, which, Brian, what the fuck are you
• 1:05:27
  doing there, buddy? I.
• 1:05:32
  Just don't even know. Also like they're like he's
• 1:05:36
  pissed that Bill won the debate against Marty.
• 1:05:40
  So I'm like, aren't weird that the nerd is friends with Turd
• 1:05:44
  Ferguson, but I'm here for like the subversion of trope.
• 1:05:47
  No. The way I took it, it looked
• 1:05:49
  like they were using the nerd and being like, hey man, you can
• 1:05:53
  be a part of our group, but you're going to do what we want
• 1:05:56
  you to do. If you become present.
• 1:05:59
  That's how it is. I know that they were using him
• 1:06:01
  type deal and you know Marty is very much cool with it.
• 1:06:05
  Yeah, but we do know that Marty's part of society.
• 1:06:07
  We do now. If for no other reason than the
• 1:06:09
  fact that he got into Harvard. And a lot of that is like.
• 1:06:13
  Yeah. I'm I'm rubbing elbows of
• 1:06:14
  people. Yeah, yeah, look at this.
• 1:06:16
  And here's The thing is that I forgot that I thought he said
• 1:06:23
  I'll send you a Telegraph, he said.
• 1:06:25
  I said I'll send you a telegram if I hear something going on,
• 1:06:29
  which is important in like a few minutes, but I.
• 1:06:32
  Was like I was gonna say. 'Cause I thought like he was.
• 1:06:34
  Being like overly sarcastic, like I'll send you a telegram if
• 1:06:38
  I hear something going on. And I was thinking Telegraph
• 1:06:40
  like, and I was like, what a Dick.
• 1:06:45
  And then later when Jenny's like, you got a telegram from
• 1:06:48
  Turd Ferguson and I was like, wait, that's a real.
• 1:06:51
  Yeah. Meanwhile, during all of this he
• 1:06:54
  looks back over beach towel and Shauna left him.
• 1:06:57
  Shauna's gonna. Shauna is the most shallow
• 1:07:01
  girlfriend ever. Like as soon as he is not
• 1:07:05
  serving anything for their social status, she's like out of
• 1:07:07
  there. I think they're just a very bad
• 1:07:10
  match. I.
• 1:07:12
  Think what I said is very true. She's very shallow.
• 1:07:15
  Here's the thing though, is that if you think that she's very
• 1:07:18
  shallow, why is Bill with her? Is it just for her looks and for
• 1:07:21
  the ability to have sex? Because I'd say that's also
• 1:07:24
  shallow. Well, we don't really know.
• 1:07:25
  We don't really explore that too much, but I don't think
• 1:07:28
  everything about Bill. He does seem to be a guy to to
• 1:07:32
  like to partake in the sex from what we see later on in the
• 1:07:35
  film, but I do just from everything else we've seen, we
• 1:07:39
  get more of them, so it's easier to make that deduction.
• 1:07:42
  Exactly. But then again, like, I don't
• 1:07:45
  know, like everything about like Heidi, when confronted later,
• 1:07:48
  we'll get to it. Hold on, we'll get to.
• 1:07:50
  It Yeah, we'll just, we need to go and order a word, yeah.
• 1:07:52
  Yeah. OK.
• 1:07:53
  So David Blanchard approaches and he says, I've got something
• 1:07:57
  that you need to hear, but we gotta go to the pier cuz it
• 1:08:00
  rhymes. And when he pulls her over, he
• 1:08:04
  pulls him over there. And then we cut real quick to
• 1:08:06
  Jim Whitney in his parlor, and he's talking to Judge Carter.
• 1:08:11
  And Jen comes downstairs and Judge congratulates him on her,
• 1:08:16
  congratulates her on her coming out and says, you know, welcome
• 1:08:20
  to our newest member of society. And she's like, I think there's
• 1:08:23
  something in my earring. And it's the same earring that
• 1:08:26
  she dropped that was like, in the closet earlier.
• 1:08:29
  And they pull it apart and there is a little something cut back
• 1:08:33
  to Blanchard talking to Mill and he plays a recording.
• 1:08:39
  And Bill's mad at first 'cause he's like, what the fuck?
• 1:08:41
  You're taping my family? That's so messed up, dude.
• 1:08:44
  He goes no, just so I understand.
• 1:08:47
  I'd be mad at me too. But seriously, just listen.
• 1:08:50
  And on the tape he hears yes. Like he hears them talking about
• 1:08:53
  going to her, coming out party. And then Jim is saying, yes,
• 1:08:58
  first we dine, then compilation, first with someone your own age
• 1:09:01
  and then with your mother and me.
• 1:09:03
  And Bill's, like, you definitely faked this shit.
• 1:09:06
  Yeah. But like, God damn, it's such a
• 1:09:09
  weird thing. This is so fucked up.
• 1:09:12
  And then like the rest of the recording plays and it's just a
• 1:09:15
  sound of a later, you know, it's the shunting, but it sounds like
• 1:09:19
  a gross ass orgy that's just going on.
• 1:09:21
  Yeah, well, I mean, that's what is.
• 1:09:23
  That's basically the shunting. Yeah.
• 1:09:25
  But no, like I can't hear the word dine.
• 1:09:28
  Like since the first time we saw this movie like five years ago
• 1:09:31
  or whatever, any time I hear the word dine, my head immediately
• 1:09:34
  goes then copulation. Yeah, you're like, all right,
• 1:09:37
  we're gonna dine in your mind goes.
• 1:09:39
  The population and then yeah, so and the judge and Jim see that
• 1:09:46
  what is in the earring is infected.
• 1:09:47
  Mike and Jim is like, well, she has been getting stalked by the
• 1:09:51
  David Blanchard. And I also know he's really good
• 1:09:54
  at technology. So Bill, despite saying it's
• 1:09:59
  rigged, is like, I'm taking this tape with me.
• 1:10:01
  And he bursts into his therapist's home.
• 1:10:05
  Let's say I understand Doctor Cleveland being like, hey, you
• 1:10:08
  like literally can't be here right now.
• 1:10:10
  This is such a problem for me professionally.
• 1:10:12
  Well. Maybe he does it at his house.
• 1:10:15
  I feel like that's the thing that happens in horror movies
• 1:10:17
  for whatever reason. No, I feel like they've
• 1:10:20
  definitely been showing him doing it like at the school.
• 1:10:22
  Like very. I love the babysitter.
• 1:10:25
  OK. Except in the babysitter, it's
• 1:10:27
  not really a therapist's office. It's just a nurse.
• 1:10:29
  But. Yeah, I got you.
• 1:10:30
  Yeah. Yeah.
• 1:10:32
  And he's like, no, I need you to listen to this tape right now.
• 1:10:35
  And he's like, well, I can't listen right now.
• 1:10:36
  We can listen tomorrow in your session.
• 1:10:38
  He goes, no, I need you to listen to it tonight.
• 1:10:39
  He goes, well, then you can leave with me.
• 1:10:40
  He goes, well, I don't wanna do that.
• 1:10:42
  And he goes, so you still don't trust me, which is like, this is
• 1:10:46
  like the ultimate kind of gaslighting where it's like not
• 1:10:49
  just telling you that it's all in your head, but like that
• 1:10:51
  you're doing something wrong because of what's in your head.
• 1:10:54
  Mm hmm. Like it's such a manipulative.
• 1:10:58
  Yeah, the ways of it. You still don't trust me, do
• 1:11:01
  you? Well, yeah.
• 1:11:03
  And it works. He ends up handing him over the
• 1:11:05
  table and he's like, all right, we'll listen to it and then
• 1:11:07
  we'll meet tomorrow and talk about it.
• 1:11:09
  So Bill tries to talk to Shauna. This is what I was going to talk
• 1:11:12
  about. Yes.
• 1:11:13
  He he tries to talk about his problems and then he's like,
• 1:11:16
  this is like, shit that's really bothering me right now.
• 1:11:18
  She's like, OK, but what about Ted Ferguson's party?
• 1:11:21
  And then he's like, well, as soon as he doesn't have a query
• 1:11:23
  answer about it, he's like, he gets frustrated and he's like,
• 1:11:25
  why are you talking about this shit?
• 1:11:27
  Like this is all you care about? Is this in like our social
• 1:11:30
  status? And she breaks up with him on
• 1:11:32
  the spot because of that. Listen and I don't disagree with
• 1:11:35
  you, I am just saying why was he with her in the 1st place?
• 1:11:39
  I don't know. I think it was also for shallow
• 1:11:41
  reasons. I think until he had actual
• 1:11:44
  problems he was fine with the shallowness.
• 1:11:48
  Maybe I don't. Know which I think in a way
• 1:11:51
  makes him shallow, maybe having real problems yes maybe it like
• 1:11:54
  deepened him some, but like. Look, I'm just calling out
• 1:11:58
  what's very much visible in the movies.
• 1:11:59
  So. Am I?
• 1:12:01
  That's not visible. I think it is visible.
• 1:12:04
  I it's not that important. Whatever.
• 1:12:06
  I was just making commentary on what I was observing here.
• 1:12:09
  So yeah, they break up and she storms off.
• 1:12:13
  He finds a doll head in his locker, and he's like, well,
• 1:12:16
  this is annoying on top of everything else.
• 1:12:18
  He goes to meet with his therapist, who says that taping
• 1:12:22
  people is kind of hella illegal, especially in California.
• 1:12:25
  I don't know. But we have, like, a lot of laws
• 1:12:27
  protecting people's privacy. So he plays the tape.
• 1:12:31
  And, you know, we cut to the same conversation we heard
• 1:12:35
  before. So he says, first we'll dine,
• 1:12:38
  then the introductions, and then you'll be presented.
• 1:12:40
  He's like, what? No, that's not what this said
• 1:12:43
  before. And he's like, I hate to give
• 1:12:45
  you medication. And Bill's like, no, you're not
• 1:12:47
  giving me this prescription. And instead he takes the phone
• 1:12:50
  and he calls David Blanchard and he says, can you meet me?
• 1:12:53
  I need a copy of the tape. Yes, right now.
• 1:12:56
  OK, cool. I'll meet you at the corner of
• 1:12:58
  whatever and whatever. I didn't write it down 'cause
• 1:13:00
  it's not really important. The important thing is that he
• 1:13:02
  said it out loud where Doctor Cleveland could hear.
• 1:13:04
  Yes. So he runs out, gets into his
• 1:13:08
  hoops, and he drives to the meeting place.
• 1:13:12
  He goes to where he's gonna meet up with Blanchard.
• 1:13:14
  And when he gets there, he sees Blanchard's van.
• 1:13:17
  It's just like upside down. And it's a total mess.
• 1:13:20
  And he sees a bloody sheet being loaded into an ambulance.
• 1:13:23
  And he goes, is David dead? And the paramedics just don't
• 1:13:26
  even answer him. And then he sees the, like,
• 1:13:28
  little electronics case that he had before, upside down on the
• 1:13:32
  ground, and he goes in to grab the tape recorder.
• 1:13:34
  And a cop is like, dude, this isn't like a flea market.
• 1:13:37
  Look, I think. They're very fair here, for
• 1:13:39
  sure. Yeah, and also like this.
• 1:13:40
  Is like this is realistic because it does seem very
• 1:13:43
  callous to just go up to a crash site and start rummaging through
• 1:13:46
  the logging. And that, I mean, that's
• 1:13:48
  definitely a dead person in the like covered up there being
• 1:13:53
  loaded into the ambulance like it's a it's soaked, that sheet
• 1:13:56
  is soaked with blood. Yeah, it's bad.
• 1:13:58
  Yeah. And so the cop just basically
• 1:14:02
  makes him leave. He goes home, and he's trying to
• 1:14:05
  tell Jenny like, 'cause even though they're broken off, like,
• 1:14:08
  that was still your boyfriend. And it was implied that they
• 1:14:10
  were, like, serious for a while. Yeah, right.
• 1:14:12
  So he's trying to tell her what happened.
• 1:14:14
  And she's like, no, you got a telegram.
• 1:14:16
  He goes, no, but I need to talk to you.
• 1:14:17
  He goes, it's from Ted Ferguson. And he's like, OK, so he opens
• 1:14:22
  it up and he was invited. I love this because the whole
• 1:14:26
  invitation is very formal. It's like Theodore.
• 1:14:30
  Yeah, I love that. Yeah.
• 1:14:32
  On the at the 18th hour of whatever and then it's signed.
• 1:14:37
  Ted the Tycoon for you. Is that what it is?
• 1:14:39
  So I couldn't. I was.
• 1:14:41
  Signed at the. End.
• 1:14:42
  I love it. It's so it's so over the top.
• 1:14:45
  And he's like, OK, so I just need you guys to know.
• 1:14:48
  And they're like, yeah, we know about the rack.
• 1:14:49
  And he goes. David's dead.
• 1:14:53
  They they get the most half hearted thing.
• 1:14:54
  They're like, Oh yeah, it's so terrible.
• 1:14:56
  Yeah. Anyways, So what are you gonna
• 1:14:58
  wear to the thing? And they're like, oh, you mean
• 1:15:02
  Blanchard's funeral? No, Ted's party.
• 1:15:04
  And he's like, I'm not even concerned about that right now.
• 1:15:08
  So he goes to the party and he sees Clarissa and she goes into
• 1:15:14
  like this. Like, they dance for a little
• 1:15:17
  bit and talk for a minute. And Shawna's friend who's there
• 1:15:24
  sees them dancing. And we see her kind of like duck
• 1:15:28
  out, and we assume that she's gonna go talk.
• 1:15:31
  To Shawna, if she's there, then that definitely means that she
• 1:15:34
  is part of society. Well, we don't see that Shawna's
• 1:15:37
  there. We just see her friend is there.
• 1:15:39
  No, I know, I'm saying the friend.
• 1:15:40
  Yeah. Which confirms what you were
• 1:15:42
  saying. Before OK, OK, yeah, yeah.
• 1:15:45
  So Milo Bussin kind of cock blocks his buddy Bill and
• 1:15:52
  insults Clarissa's mom. So she walks into a cabana and
• 1:15:58
  Bill ends up following her after he gets my load to leave and
• 1:16:02
  turned Ferguson's in there and he's like so you got my
• 1:16:06
  invitation. Sorry so last minute.
• 1:16:08
  And then they kind of fight for a second and then he was like, I
• 1:16:11
  need to know what's going on with my you and my sister and.
• 1:16:15
  It's like, I want to know what's going on with Blanchard and my
• 1:16:17
  sister. And then he's actually like,
• 1:16:19
  legitimately honest about what happens.
• 1:16:21
  Like well. 1st we died, then I fucked your sister.
• 1:16:26
  I love that this. Story changes every time we hear
• 1:16:28
  it, It's amazing. Yeah, and he's like when
• 1:16:31
  everybody else got so horny, everybody else fucked her too.
• 1:16:33
  And then with Blanchard, well, I just caused him to wreck.
• 1:16:36
  And then, you know, I I'd say I had a pretty busy day today,
• 1:16:39
  don't you? So this whole thing ends up in a
• 1:16:42
  fight, he punches Ted and then they all gather Bill here and
• 1:16:47
  they toss him in the pool. It's a very like Jeff in or what
• 1:16:55
  is DJ Jazzy Jeff? Yeah, that's DJ.
• 1:16:59
  Jazz. Jazz.
• 1:17:00
  Yeah, that's what they call him. Yeah.
• 1:17:01
  And Fresh Prince, where they like, toss him out.
• 1:17:03
  Sorry, I said Jeff. And then I was thinking Jazz
• 1:17:06
  because then I got confused because Jeffrey was there, all
• 1:17:09
  these things. So I went on a whole loop in my
• 1:17:12
  head and it didn't make sense out loud.
• 1:17:13
  It's OK. So he gets thrown in the pool
• 1:17:16
  and then when he climbs out, Clarissa flirts with him really
• 1:17:20
  hardcore and then invites him to her house.
• 1:17:24
  So they're in her room and they're making out in like a hot
• 1:17:28
  and heavy kind of way, which is surprising because he is wearing
• 1:17:31
  tighty whities. They start to have sex and in
• 1:17:36
  the middle of sex he like fills her hand come back from the back
• 1:17:42
  of her. I was.
• 1:17:43
  Trying to make sense of this. Note where she called him Lean
• 1:17:46
  Machine Jelly Bean and she just does it so casually.
• 1:17:50
  Things like. That is what I was referring to
• 1:17:52
  before about her dialogue just being so weird but so casual.
• 1:17:56
  In a weird way, yeah. So that happens.
• 1:17:59
  He sees the hand and he freaks out, falls out of the bed and
• 1:18:02
  then he wakes up and her body's in like a bunch of weird.
• 1:18:06
  Yeah. She she is like pieces of Barbie
• 1:18:09
  thrown into a pile. Yeah, so and then he sits back
• 1:18:13
  up and then she's all put back together so they all can put it
• 1:18:17
  together super fast, apparently. Yeah, meanwhile Shawna and her
• 1:18:20
  friend are outside of Clarissa's house and they can confirm that
• 1:18:24
  that's Bill's Jeep. And Shawna is crying and she's
• 1:18:27
  like, he'll fucking pay for this.
• 1:18:29
  I don't understand why she's mad she broke up with them.
• 1:18:32
  Because he like, he's already moved on.
• 1:18:35
  It's been 8 hours. Yeah, and that's true.
• 1:18:38
  I get it though. Like I mean.
• 1:18:41
  I don't. Know that's my whole thing.
• 1:18:42
  She's the one that called. That's my whole thing with
• 1:18:45
  Friends and the Ross and Rachel. They were on a break thing.
• 1:18:47
  Like it doesn't matter if they were technically on a break.
• 1:18:50
  Like Ross didn't even care enough to like not fuck another
• 1:18:54
  woman for five hours. Like.
• 1:18:57
  I get it, but at the same time. I don't think their relationship
• 1:19:01
  was that deep. I agree with.
• 1:19:03
  I'm gonna stop analyzing their relationship here.
• 1:19:06
  Then. No.
• 1:19:07
  The Ross and Rachel thing that people get so caught up on is
• 1:19:10
  the thing I'm very passionate about.
• 1:19:12
  OK, that's. Fine when people like no see,
• 1:19:15
  but if you look at this line right here where she says take a
• 1:19:17
  break from us. It's whatever, man.
• 1:19:19
  I'm. Mixing that.
• 1:19:20
  We're done with it, OK? So.
• 1:19:24
  It doesn't matter. So Clarissa gives Bill some tea
• 1:19:27
  and offers to pee in it and he's like, you're weird.
• 1:19:30
  Yeah, I, I love how on face he is by this whole thing.
• 1:19:33
  Like he just kind of like he's like, I've never met anybody
• 1:19:35
  like you before. You're like I.
• 1:19:37
  Met her mom. Tom comes in, coughs up some
• 1:19:40
  hair into her hand and offers it to Bill and he takes it the way
• 1:19:46
  you would take something gross from a toddler.
• 1:19:49
  And then when she's not looking, he kind of like drops it and
• 1:19:51
  wipes his hand off. I kind of get this because like,
• 1:19:53
  if you're making first impressions with somebody like
• 1:19:55
  that, especially if it's I don't know what he what his feelings
• 1:19:59
  are here for Cora. So, but if he wants to like be
• 1:20:01
  good with her, then like take the hair and just like, you
• 1:20:05
  know. Move on.
• 1:20:07
  But she's very much annoyed with her mom, so she kicks her mom
• 1:20:09
  out. She's like, yeah, she does
• 1:20:10
  things I don't like. I don't care for it.
• 1:20:13
  And then Bill was like, all right, I'm getting the fuck out
• 1:20:15
  of here. Yeah, so the next morning he's
• 1:20:18
  dressed in his funeral finest, and when he gets into his Jeep,
• 1:20:21
  he finds a blow up doll with a Barbie in its mouth.
• 1:20:25
  And he's trying to get it out of his Jeep when Shawna pulls up
• 1:20:29
  and she's like, oh, that's just great.
• 1:20:33
  And leaves as though he put the blow up doll in there.
• 1:20:35
  And he's like, yeah, this is Clarissa.
• 1:20:37
  I feel like this would have taken 5 seconds to explain but.
• 1:20:40
  He yeah, this is very classic like ROM com.
• 1:20:43
  Like no, we let me. Explain.
• 1:20:45
  Like. Too late, I've already walked
• 1:20:47
  too far. Yeah, it's like, yeah, it's a
• 1:20:50
  blow up doll. Like I don't know where the.
• 1:20:51
  Fuck it came from. Like.
• 1:20:53
  Nobody puts a blow up doll in their own Jeep.
• 1:20:56
  No. Like nobody that has ever had a
• 1:20:58
  girlfriend anyway. Yeah, nobody with self respect
• 1:21:01
  would do that. So he he's fed up.
• 1:21:04
  He takes the blow up doll, takes it inside and he wants to
• 1:21:07
  confront his family about it. And he goes into the parents
• 1:21:10
  room and he finds mom and dad in the bedroom in their underwear
• 1:21:14
  with Jenny, who is also in her underwear, getting a shoulder
• 1:21:17
  massage from her dad. It's so weird.
• 1:21:21
  And they just like, they gaslight him some more and
• 1:21:23
  they're like, what are you talking about, man?
• 1:21:25
  Like, I don't understand why you're so paranoid, Bill.
• 1:21:27
  Everything's OK. He's like.
• 1:21:29
  I'm moving out. Yeah, he's and.
• 1:21:31
  I'm like, no, Bill, don't go. And then this is where we get
• 1:21:35
  the the little seed plant and like he tells us that he's like
• 1:21:38
  fuck you butt head. And then he walks out of the
• 1:21:40
  house. Hold on to that line.
• 1:21:43
  So at the funeral, Milo says that David doesn't even look
• 1:21:49
  like himself and he kind of like touches his face and we get a
• 1:21:51
  literal face crack and he goes, I guess they had to do a lot of
• 1:21:55
  repair work to make him presentable.
• 1:21:58
  Yeah. And then he walks away and Marty
• 1:22:01
  approaches Bill, and he says that they need to talk.
• 1:22:04
  It's about Bill's family, it's about David Blanchard, It's
• 1:22:07
  about society. Yeah, so meet at Frankel and
• 1:22:10
  Cannon. At 9:00 PM.
• 1:22:12
  Yeah, so at night Bill arrives in his hoops Jeep.
• 1:22:16
  And Milo is following. Yeah.
• 1:22:19
  From a safe distance, but also one that Bill totally would have
• 1:22:22
  noticed if he wasn't so bad at being at a Harvard.
• 1:22:25
  He was right there. Yeah.
• 1:22:26
  Yeah. So Bill goes down the hill and I
• 1:22:29
  don't know why he goes down the hill.
• 1:22:30
  He's so cute. Bill goes down the hill and he
• 1:22:33
  finds Marty's car down there. I don't know how the fuck it got
• 1:22:38
  down there, but it's got its hazards on.
• 1:22:40
  It's stressed me out imagining like listen I understand Volvos
• 1:22:45
  are generally hard to destroy but that's literal woods.
• 1:22:49
  Like all terrain vehicles. Yeah, exactly.
• 1:22:52
  They're safe Rd. vehicles, but they're not like you said, it's
• 1:22:56
  not. If it was Bill's Jeep, I could
• 1:22:58
  understand it being. Yeah, I, I that would make a lot
• 1:23:01
  more sense. So he inspects it.
• 1:23:03
  It's kind of giving him weird vibes.
• 1:23:05
  Opens up the passenger door and Marty kind of falls out there
• 1:23:08
  with his throats with. Like the lighting in the scene
• 1:23:11
  is so eerie in like a very beautiful way with like the
• 1:23:14
  hazards. Going yeah, they did a great job
• 1:23:16
  with that. Yeah, I was thinking about that
• 1:23:17
  too when I was watching this. Yeah, it gives that very surreal
• 1:23:19
  feeling the way you would when you like at night, if you come
• 1:23:21
  across like the police somewhere, you know, and you see
• 1:23:25
  the lights flashing and it's different colors.
• 1:23:27
  And you get this because you've got like the halogen lights at
• 1:23:30
  the front. But then you've got the red tint
• 1:23:32
  in the back from the brake lights.
• 1:23:33
  And it's just like you just get these bursts of color.
• 1:23:36
  And it just, it adds to like that that human nature thing we
• 1:23:41
  all have in present day of being like, oh God, this.
• 1:23:44
  Yeah, you know something? 'S wrong, Yes, exactly.
• 1:23:46
  And I think that's really well done.
• 1:23:47
  And then like you said, when he ends up opening up Marty's door
• 1:23:52
  and he pops out and he's got his throat slit and you're like, Oh,
• 1:23:55
  no. Yeah, so while he's been doing
• 1:23:59
  that, Milo up at the top at the road sees somebody run off with
• 1:24:05
  Marty. And it looks like David
• 1:24:07
  Blanchard. Yeah, it it looks a lot like
• 1:24:10
  him. So while all this is going on,
• 1:24:14
  Bill is just kind of wandering around trying to figure out
• 1:24:17
  what's going on, and somebody is down there and they push him
• 1:24:20
  down, so he goes and chases. After.
• 1:24:22
  Them chases after them, follows them through the woods, finds
• 1:24:25
  like a sweater in the trees with this geometric type pattern on
• 1:24:30
  it. And that's important for the
• 1:24:31
  next two scenes from now. Yeah.
• 1:24:35
  Hops a fence, finds a house right off front, and then he
• 1:24:38
  knocks on the door. And then whenever Corset opens
• 1:24:41
  the door, he's like, who? What are you doing here?
• 1:24:42
  She's like, this is my house, which I was thinking to myself,
• 1:24:45
  you were just here the other night, man.
• 1:24:47
  I get that you were horny, but calm down dude.
• 1:24:51
  Like and. He's like, all right, well, can
• 1:24:52
  I call the cops? So he goes inside, calls the
• 1:24:54
  cops. The cops show up and leads him
• 1:24:57
  down there to Marty's car. Except it's not Marty's car
• 1:24:59
  anymore. It's like a completely different
• 1:25:01
  car. Completely different make and
• 1:25:02
  model and color. Nobody there.
• 1:25:04
  And they're like, all right, we're we need you to put your
• 1:25:08
  hands against the vehicle. They suspect he's on something.
• 1:25:11
  And this cop at this point is so fucking done with him.
• 1:25:13
  He's like, if I see you again, we're going to have a bad time.
• 1:25:18
  So Clarissa invites Bill back to her house and he goes, I'm not
• 1:25:21
  in the mood. She goes, I didn't mean like
• 1:25:22
  that. She actually sounds really hurt
• 1:25:24
  that he thought that she was just suggesting they have sex.
• 1:25:28
  And they end up sleeping in the Jeep.
• 1:25:31
  Yep, he just like has like rest of his head on her lap.
• 1:25:35
  And it's the next morning. And he arrives to school and I
• 1:25:38
  like this detail that they kept him in this wrinkly suit that
• 1:25:41
  he'd worn to the funeral the day before because that's what he
• 1:25:43
  had with him. Mm, hmm, yeah.
• 1:25:45
  And he comes in and he talks to Jenny and he's like, can you
• 1:25:49
  please just tell me the truth? And she looks kind of sad, but
• 1:25:52
  she doesn't really say anything. And then Bill gets up on stage,
• 1:25:57
  and he sees Jenny entered out in the audience, and Turd has the
• 1:26:02
  same sweater we saw in the woods the night before.
• 1:26:04
  Yeah. And he says Martin, who has
• 1:26:08
  never missed a day of school, has never been late and has won
• 1:26:11
  multiple attendance awards, is not here.
• 1:26:13
  And he won't be here because he's dead.
• 1:26:16
  Blanchard, who is also dead, was in fact murdered in Martin
• 1:26:21
  Petrie was going to expose the people that murdered him, so he
• 1:26:25
  in turn was murdered. And everybody's laughing 'cause
• 1:26:28
  they think it's a big joke. And then they laugh even harder,
• 1:26:30
  because as soon as he finishes this little monologue, Martin
• 1:26:33
  Petrie arrives and says he had car trouble.
• 1:26:36
  I noticed a thing here that I don't know if it was intentional
• 1:26:40
  or not, but when he arrives on stage and Bill's walking off,
• 1:26:44
  he's like grabbing his throat. He's like rubbing his throat
• 1:26:47
  here. Oh, I didn't notice.
• 1:26:49
  That he's doing that for a little bit, yeah.
• 1:26:51
  Like right where he got cut at. You think he's like kind of
• 1:26:55
  teasing Bill a little bit? I think he might be because he,
• 1:26:59
  I mean, he's part of society. So he's like, yeah, this right
• 1:27:01
  here. You saw this shit cut.
• 1:27:02
  That was just me doing a little bit of mini shunt right there.
• 1:27:06
  That's what we call masturbation here in the society.
• 1:27:11
  Yeah. But yeah, it was like an
• 1:27:14
  interesting thing. I I just noticed him doing that.
• 1:27:16
  I was like, huh, That definitely feels like it was something.
• 1:27:18
  So Bill leaves and Milo follows him and he's like, listen, I put
• 1:27:22
  the dolls in your deep in locker and Bill's like, wow, that's
• 1:27:27
  really cool, why would you do that?
• 1:27:29
  And Milo goes because I'm your best friend, but only when it's
• 1:27:32
  convenient. And then Bill goes, oh, I'm an
• 1:27:36
  asshole. Yeah, he's like, oh, man, I'm
• 1:27:39
  sorry. You're right.
• 1:27:40
  I get kind of caught up in this stuff.
• 1:27:41
  And then Milo, it's OK, man. Maybe it's because we've been
• 1:27:44
  watching a lot of American Dad lately, but this feels like 100%
• 1:27:49
  of the Steven Snot storylines. Maybe it will, but that's
• 1:27:53
  because Steven Snot are old Jet friends and these guys are here.
• 1:27:56
  I like having a moment. They're legit friends, yeah.
• 1:27:58
  It was really nice when, like, Bill was called out on
• 1:28:01
  something. He's like, yeah, you know what?
• 1:28:02
  You're right. I've been kind of an asshole to
• 1:28:04
  you. I'm sorry, man.
• 1:28:05
  Like, let's just be tight now. I feel like this is the ultimate
• 1:28:08
  moment of growth for Bill in the entire movie, honestly.
• 1:28:11
  Where he was. He was.
• 1:28:13
  Like dude, if they had I. Suck a little bit too.
• 1:28:15
  If they had like big enough arms they could have done Arnold and
• 1:28:18
  Dylan like. I think you're gonna say if they
• 1:28:21
  had. Big enough arms they would have
• 1:28:23
  been able to hug each other and then wrap their arms around the
• 1:28:25
  way Clarissa did the other night.
• 1:28:28
  Why not both? So.
• 1:28:34
  He's got Milo on board now because he tells him the whole
• 1:28:37
  conspiracy shit. And then Milo's like, well,
• 1:28:39
  that's interesting you say this because I followed you the other
• 1:28:42
  night. Sorry about that invasion of
• 1:28:44
  privacy also. But when you went into the
• 1:28:47
  woods, I saw Martin and David come out of the woods.
• 1:28:52
  Duh, duh, duh. Sorry, I was.
• 1:28:57
  Gonna prove no, you're OK. So Milo drops Bill off at home,
• 1:29:01
  and when he walks in, he sees the judge in Doctor Cleveland
• 1:29:04
  there with his family. And I'm just gonna say, Jenny
• 1:29:08
  right here looks so much like Reese Witherspoon it's
• 1:29:10
  disgusting. I can see that.
• 1:29:12
  Yeah, I can see the. Resiliency, and I mean,
• 1:29:14
  disgusting in like a cute way, but like, yeah, I love Reese
• 1:29:18
  Witherspoon, who does something like, right, thank you.
• 1:29:21
  Nobody. Would say no to.
• 1:29:24
  That so they bill is like, Oh no, I'm not Nope, we're not
• 1:29:28
  doing this. And he tries to leave and then
• 1:29:30
  like these paramedics just appear and they grab him and
• 1:29:33
  they sedate him and they take him to the hospital.
• 1:29:36
  But because Milo's out there, he follows the ambulance.
• 1:29:39
  So he goes in there into the hospital where he sees that they
• 1:29:42
  dropped him off and he asks about Bill and they tell him
• 1:29:46
  that Bill is in the morgue. He's straight up dead.
• 1:29:50
  So he's he calls bullshit on that.
• 1:29:51
  He's like, there's no fucking way that Bill is dead.
• 1:29:54
  Evan Richards not cry. I'm just like if you're bestest
• 1:29:59
  bubby in the world. He knows he's not dead.
• 1:30:03
  But he's surprised in like 10 minutes when Bill walks out,
• 1:30:07
  he's like, but you're dead. But they said you were dead.
• 1:30:11
  He he's calling bullshit the entire time.
• 1:30:14
  Even the way that the guy says no way.
• 1:30:16
  He's like. No way, No way he.
• 1:30:19
  Like says it like that. No.
• 1:30:21
  Yeah. He's, he's refusing to believe
• 1:30:25
  that Bill is dead here. So he's like.
• 1:30:27
  And then he. Walks outside and he sees that
• 1:30:29
  they have Bill's Jeep there waiting for him.
• 1:30:32
  So that's why you wait there, because you know.
• 1:30:34
  Talk for a second about Milo being the asshole that parks in
• 1:30:39
  the handicapped spot when there's an open spot right next.
• 1:30:41
  To you. He didn't just do that.
• 1:30:43
  He parked in the handicapped spot while double parking.
• 1:30:47
  Yes, two parking spots. Yeah, the dude is an asshole.
• 1:30:51
  But I'm also gonna say, can we talk about the hospital being an
• 1:30:54
  asshole for putting these two handicap spots right next to a
• 1:30:57
  stairs only entrance to the hospital?
• 1:30:59
  That is pretty shitty, Yeah, And I'm sorry BMW drivers out there,
• 1:31:04
  but he was a BMW driver and they have a reputation around here in
• 1:31:07
  Lexington for being like that. So we cut some bill.
• 1:31:10
  He is, in fact, alive in the hospital, and he's dreaming.
• 1:31:14
  And then he wakes up when he thinks he hears Blanchard
• 1:31:16
  screaming. So he looks to the side.
• 1:31:19
  He hallucinates. Shadows and here's like actual
• 1:31:23
  hubbub Hubbubanan and attacks the curtain but there's nobody
• 1:31:28
  there. Yeah, so then we just got like a
• 1:31:31
  next shot of him. He's just strolling out of the
• 1:31:33
  hospital, no fight. He is freed because he realized
• 1:31:36
  that he's actually right and there's not.
• 1:31:38
  He's like, I've been afraid and paranoid my entire life.
• 1:31:43
  And I was right. And Milo's like, what's wrong
• 1:31:46
  with you? And he goes everything.
• 1:31:49
  See, the way I took this? I thought that he was so drugged
• 1:31:51
  up here. Oh, I think there's an element
• 1:31:53
  of that too. I think he's still drugged up,
• 1:31:55
  but I also think there's like that kind of freedom that comes
• 1:31:59
  with being like, so it's weird, 'cause you get like yes, so like
• 1:32:05
  he's, you get a certain you're fogged up from the drugs, but
• 1:32:08
  you also get like a certain clarity of like nothing actually
• 1:32:11
  really fucking matters. And I.
• 1:32:13
  Think everybody has done a drug before, Yeah.
• 1:32:16
  I think that's where Bill is at with it.
• 1:32:19
  I think he's like he's. Like, you know what, I'm gonna
• 1:32:21
  drive the chorus chorus house and I'm gonna like confront her
• 1:32:25
  about this shit. So that's, I mean this we
• 1:32:27
  literally just a cut straight to him over there and he's like
• 1:32:30
  swapping her. I I use the word accosts it's.
• 1:32:34
  Probably more fitting, yeah. He's like, he's straight up
• 1:32:37
  confronting her. He's like, I know you're part of
• 1:32:39
  him. And she's like, just don't go
• 1:32:41
  home, wink, wink. He's like, I'm going home.
• 1:32:45
  I'm on my way. I love his response.
• 1:32:49
  He's like, he's like home. That's where the party's at.
• 1:32:53
  He's like, that's where I'm going.
• 1:32:54
  I'm going to the party. So like it cuts.
• 1:32:57
  And. He sounds every bit as manic as
• 1:32:59
  the way you just portrayed that. Yeah.
• 1:33:01
  That's his whole energy this entire time.
• 1:33:03
  As soon as he steps out of the hospital, that's his whole
• 1:33:05
  energy. He even has like the like
• 1:33:08
  whenever he's like, laughing at people.
• 1:33:10
  So Bill drives off and Milo follows, and Mrs. Carlin is in
• 1:33:13
  the car, but she won't get out. So he's like, all right, cool, I
• 1:33:15
  guess we're just going together again.
• 1:33:17
  I explained she's trying her hardest to eat his hair and he's
• 1:33:20
  like, listen, like that's where we draw the line.
• 1:33:23
  No hair. Has really nice hair.
• 1:33:25
  It's got that nice curly. Hair.
• 1:33:27
  I guess if you were a connoisseur of hair, that's what
• 1:33:29
  you'd go for. She.
• 1:33:30
  Yeah, you know, I'm sure. I like, I wanna run my fingers
• 1:33:34
  through it like it was really nice looking here.
• 1:33:35
  It's a nice boundary but man what What the fuck was their
• 1:33:38
  plan with her here? Like they it feels like they
• 1:33:41
  have some kind of meaning behind including her.
• 1:33:44
  I just don't fully understand it and it helps to know that they
• 1:33:48
  don't understand it. Yeah.
• 1:33:50
  So when Bill gets home, it basically is like the beginning
• 1:33:53
  of the movie. That nightmare he has where?
• 1:33:55
  He walks into. This empty house and he's sweaty
• 1:33:58
  and everything's empty but he's still hearing sounds like he's
• 1:34:01
  hearing them saying he's. Here, he's here.
• 1:34:03
  But nobody's there and he grabs a knife and he goes upstairs and
• 1:34:06
  when he peeks out the window he sees his parents car pulling up,
• 1:34:09
  so he goes downstairs. He's ready to threaten them,
• 1:34:13
  approach them, coax whatever answers he needs to get out of
• 1:34:16
  them. And as soon as they open the
• 1:34:17
  door and he's like, we need to talk, he is grabbed.
• 1:34:20
  There's an entire surprise party here, and it's very much like in
• 1:34:23
  Horrible Bosses where he's like, God damn it, you know?
• 1:34:26
  I hate that. Yeah, they like get one of those
• 1:34:30
  like animal ringing things. Like they like, it's like a net
• 1:34:32
  thing where they, like, put it across his neck and just like,
• 1:34:36
  yeah. That's how they get like
• 1:34:38
  aggressive stray dogs like so that way they don't have to
• 1:34:41
  worry about getting bitten. Yeah, and they just have them
• 1:34:44
  pinned down. They're like, OK, man, like
• 1:34:47
  you're, you're gonna be part of society now.
• 1:34:50
  And then the therapist comes out from the top of the stairs and
• 1:34:54
  congratulates everyone on a job well done, performances of the
• 1:34:58
  lifetime. He introduces the judge.
• 1:35:01
  The judge comes downstairs and explains to build that they're
• 1:35:05
  just a different race, a different species, a different
• 1:35:08
  class. Oh yeah, and the parents also
• 1:35:10
  reveal that they're not his parents here too.
• 1:35:12
  Yeah, Nan seems so excited for like, I'm not your fucking
• 1:35:16
  mother. God, this is what.
• 1:35:18
  It's all been building up to for them.
• 1:35:20
  They're like, Oh my God, I can't wait to tell him that he's not
• 1:35:22
  my son. Like oh man, that's so brutal.
• 1:35:26
  So Clarissa is at the party in her very 80s, very teased side
• 1:35:33
  pony. This is Judy in sleepaway camp
• 1:35:38
  if she was in this movie. Final level right there, right
• 1:35:41
  there. If she like a.
• 1:35:42
  Little Judy. Yeah, yeah, right there.
• 1:35:43
  It's her final form. The judge says, though, that
• 1:35:48
  they're having a double header tonight and we see Milo has
• 1:35:52
  witnessed them. Will somebody into that house
• 1:35:56
  from the ambulance. And it is revealed to be
• 1:35:59
  Blanchard, who is in fact still alive, and they're going to
• 1:36:01
  serve him up along with Billy. So let's see.
• 1:36:07
  This is where the shunting starts and I just don't know if
• 1:36:10
  there are enough words to explain this if you haven't seen
• 1:36:13
  it. Just gotta see it.
• 1:36:14
  Like, I mean, it's the most impressive effects work I think
• 1:36:18
  I've ever seen. Practical Effects.
• 1:36:20
  What it was that he was saying that they were working with
• 1:36:22
  because he was using like the actual chemical terms of it.
• 1:36:26
  But like, it's so amazing. It is such amazing work you
• 1:36:30
  guys. If you have any appreciation for
• 1:36:32
  special effects at all and you're just not listening to
• 1:36:35
  this review of this movie without having actually watched
• 1:36:37
  it, just go watch. If nothing else, just go to
• 1:36:41
  YouTube and type in Shunting Society and appreciate the
• 1:36:46
  fucking love that Screaming man George and all of the actors put
• 1:36:51
  into this. Because getting those
• 1:36:53
  prosthetics applied could not have been.
• 1:36:55
  Comfortable. It's just one of those things
• 1:36:57
  that I wondered to myself, how did he pull it off?
• 1:37:00
  Because they do these things where these people, they're
• 1:37:02
  feeding on Blanchard at this point and like they have their
• 1:37:07
  face attached to his body and like a it's like almost like a
• 1:37:10
  mosquito like sucking out of him and.
• 1:37:14
  I there's so many people involved and there are so many
• 1:37:17
  shots and angles of this and like I've done a little bit of
• 1:37:20
  like extra work on movies and as like a non speaking extra, I can
• 1:37:24
  tell you it takes a long time to shoot a single scene.
• 1:37:30
  And I can't imagine the time that went in to shoot this
• 1:37:34
  scene. And that's not even counting
• 1:37:37
  applying the prosthetics, creating the effects, all of the
• 1:37:42
  different shape shifting and rearranging that they have to do
• 1:37:46
  with it. And this had to.
• 1:37:48
  Have been a multi day process and like props to all of the
• 1:37:52
  people involved to make this look as seamless and just God
• 1:37:56
  damn beautiful as it is. I think in the Q&A on the
• 1:38:00
  Blu-ray, Brian, yes, mentioned that this is like the first
• 1:38:03
  thing that they shot. Like if you like, and I can see
• 1:38:07
  that too, because this is probably the day when they need
• 1:38:09
  the most extras, they get the most people involved, and
• 1:38:11
  they're going to know who's going to be dedicated enough to
• 1:38:14
  come back. I think it's wise because if
• 1:38:16
  you're going to like this is where you blow your budget, like
• 1:38:18
  blow your. Budget and.
• 1:38:19
  Then you know what you have to work with for the.
• 1:38:21
  Rest of the exactly. Instead of like running out of.
• 1:38:23
  Money at the end of it. Like fuck, we need a a lot of
• 1:38:26
  money for the shunting and oh we.
• 1:38:28
  Need to. Shoot some therapists saying
• 1:38:29
  it's cool, we can use my own personal Yeah.
• 1:38:32
  Exactly. Yes, exactly.
• 1:38:34
  You need a hoops license plate. I've got that.
• 1:38:36
  I'm a Hooper. I'm from.
• 1:38:38
  Kentucky. Yeah, I got it right here, cats.
• 1:38:42
  Cats, cats, cats. Am I right?
• 1:38:45
  Man, so yeah, there's like a whole lot of that we get.
• 1:38:49
  It's amazing. And basically what they're doing
• 1:38:51
  is they are melding into David. They are sucking his life force
• 1:38:56
  out of him. He is still alive.
• 1:38:58
  It appears to be very painful for him.
• 1:39:00
  And guess what? No, it's not over because we
• 1:39:05
  watched the judge arrive. They tell him he's pliable.
• 1:39:10
  And you're like, oh, God, I never want to hear that word
• 1:39:13
  described to a person in this situation.
• 1:39:15
  Yeah. And David is fisted to death.
• 1:39:22
  That's essentially, yeah. He's just like.
• 1:39:24
  Six not even essentially, that's literally like it just is this
• 1:39:28
  goes all the way up through his entire body and up into his
• 1:39:31
  brain and. He collects his birth or not
• 1:39:36
  birthmark, his beauty mark. They're the same.
• 1:39:38
  Yeah, same thing. During all this though, Jenny
• 1:39:42
  has been given the nod to go upstairs from.
• 1:39:45
  Yeah, the sexy nod with mom and Dad, and that's a sentence that
• 1:39:49
  I don't feel good having just said.
• 1:39:51
  So they disappear, and Clarissa and Turd Ferguson are also
• 1:39:55
  fighting off to the side. Cuz Ferguson's like, you don't
• 1:39:59
  actually feel for these people, do you?
• 1:40:03
  And when he's distracted by the judge fisting David, she
• 1:40:06
  releases Bill. Yeah.
• 1:40:08
  So Bill runs upstairs and he walks in on his mom, looking
• 1:40:14
  like maybe she's on the verge of climax.
• 1:40:17
  Her her torso is fine but her legs are like men legs like all
• 1:40:25
  hairy and shit and like I don't know what's happened here.
• 1:40:29
  I think the dad has broken off a part of himself on her and then
• 1:40:33
  like, I don't fucking know. And Jenny's in there somewhere
• 1:40:36
  because the mom gets out of bed and Jenny's in her vajay.
• 1:40:42
  Yeah, and then she times her wine.
• 1:40:44
  Here. Your Oedipal fantasies.
• 1:40:46
  If you, if you have any Oedipal fantasies, now's your time,
• 1:40:49
  Billy. Like he backs off from that and
• 1:40:52
  then he goes over to the sheets and then a fucking butt comes up
• 1:40:55
  from beneath the sheets here. And not, there's no asshole
• 1:41:01
  there. It's Billy's dad, not Billy's
• 1:41:04
  mother. Billy's dad father.
• 1:41:08
  Billy's father with his face where the asshole should be is
• 1:41:12
  like huh, I guess you're right son.
• 1:41:13
  I am a butt head. And then he makes fart sounds.
• 1:41:17
  This honestly makes me kind of love Billy's dad.
• 1:41:20
  It is kind of funny that he held on today.
• 1:41:22
  He's like, you know what? I'm.
• 1:41:23
  I'm using this. Yeah, he's like, yeah, you know
• 1:41:25
  what I'm going to do? You think that like maybe Jenny
• 1:41:28
  and Nan were fucking and Jim was like, I know that Bill's going
• 1:41:32
  to come up the stairs any minute now.
• 1:41:34
  I got to get into butt for him. That's.
• 1:41:36
  The. Furthest I want to ever
• 1:41:38
  speculate on the scene because I don't really know what else may
• 1:41:41
  have potentially happened up. There, that's fair.
• 1:41:43
  That's. Fair.
• 1:41:43
  So Bill goes out. By the way, he's been chased by
• 1:41:47
  his therapist upstairs this whole time, and his therapist is
• 1:41:50
  waiting for him again up there. So he gets corralled by his
• 1:41:53
  therapist and they take him back downstairs and now they are
• 1:41:57
  about to begin the shunt on him. Except he challenges Turd
• 1:42:01
  Ferguson to fisticuffs. Before that, though, Milo
• 1:42:05
  outside with Chorus's mom. He, he's gotten a cop disguised
• 1:42:10
  because there was a cop out there that was keeping watch.
• 1:42:13
  So he's this guy's a cop. Same.
• 1:42:14
  One from before that like. At the crash.
• 1:42:17
  Scene at the crash scene and in the woods.
• 1:42:19
  Yeah. So he's now inside there.
• 1:42:21
  So yeah, he's challenged Ted to a fight and they actually end up
• 1:42:27
  fighting. He ends up getting his ass
• 1:42:28
  kicked a little bit. But then as Ted starts to try
• 1:42:31
  and begin a little shunting on him, he like starts to.
• 1:42:34
  I think this is when he. OK, soft and hold on.
• 1:42:37
  This is a moment though. So they're fighting.
• 1:42:40
  Milo comes in and he wants to try and help.
• 1:42:44
  He immediately gets pushed to the side but misses Carlin like
• 1:42:47
  tackles turd and that's enough to distract him for a minute.
• 1:42:51
  But it doesn't matter 'cause he ends up coming back.
• 1:42:54
  He gets Bill pinned and he's like Sue's arm and then it
• 1:42:57
  starts to go all like Gumby. That's Bill's terminology.
• 1:43:02
  You just call him Gumby, Yeah. I'm not disparaging Gumby at
• 1:43:05
  all, and he is about to do the same thing to Bill that the
• 1:43:08
  judge did to David, except Bill takes his first and like turns
• 1:43:12
  it around on him and like guides it up to his own brain and turns
• 1:43:16
  him inside out the way that I always imagined.
• 1:43:19
  The ending of It came from Beneath the Sink by RL Stein.
• 1:43:23
  Classic goosebumps. Wait, no, it came from beneath
• 1:43:27
  the sink? Or is it the creature from the
• 1:43:29
  basement, one of those where it turns out like everybody is
• 1:43:32
  actually inside out? Oh wow.
• 1:43:35
  This is like the version of it that I imagined and I feel like
• 1:43:39
  RL Stein probably also watched Society at some point.
• 1:43:43
  Was like I need to write a kid friendly version of this 'cause
• 1:43:46
  it's basically that. Like it's the kid feels like an
• 1:43:49
  outsider and eventually finds out her whole family is inside
• 1:43:52
  out monster that sounds. Exactly.
• 1:43:53
  Like this Yes and RL Stein kid I've read.
• 1:43:57
  I read his debut adult novel in his nasty.
• 1:44:00
  So. I don't see him getting down
• 1:44:02
  with society. I don't doubt that he's capable
• 1:44:04
  of it. So, yeah, I mean, that's what
• 1:44:06
  Bill does. He like, takes his hand, reaches
• 1:44:08
  up there, he gets it in his brain.
• 1:44:09
  He's like sticking his, like, thumb and fingers out of his eye
• 1:44:13
  and mouth and it's awesome. He then takes a hold of it and
• 1:44:16
  then he turns him completely inside out.
• 1:44:19
  God. It's so.
• 1:44:22
  Amazing they. Do you can see his whole nervous
• 1:44:24
  system? Yeah.
• 1:44:26
  Out there on display, it's incredible and this is enough to
• 1:44:30
  scare everybody around there like, oh shit, if we shunt we
• 1:44:34
  can be pulled inside out by somebody that doesn't want to be
• 1:44:37
  shunted so they all back. Off boner killers, yeah, for.
• 1:44:40
  All of that, everybody just backs away from building like we
• 1:44:43
  don't want that to happen to us. So as he's about to walk out, my
• 1:44:46
  was like about he takes course. So he's got a gun now, could
• 1:44:50
  have used that way earlier. But it might not have worked on
• 1:44:53
  them. They might have just like
• 1:44:54
  absorbed it. Yeah, I know he, I guess he
• 1:44:57
  thinks he's important here. And then as they're about to
• 1:45:00
  walk out the front door, the dad is like, all right, I gotta be
• 1:45:03
  the last one in defense here. And then Bill just punches him
• 1:45:06
  in the face. And then as he's walking out the
• 1:45:08
  door, he's like, fuck you, butt head or something like that.
• 1:45:12
  I don't know. He goes on a butt head.
• 1:45:13
  Again, the three of them leave. Mrs. Carlin's still inside, so
• 1:45:16
  fuck her I guess. Yeah, right.
• 1:45:18
  Yeah. Claire's.
• 1:45:20
  Just like I don't really care. About yeah, she really didn't
• 1:45:22
  like her. Yeah.
• 1:45:23
  And she is part of society, so whatever, you know, I don't know
• 1:45:26
  if she really cared to be there or not.
• 1:45:28
  And that's it. And they just drive away and
• 1:45:30
  they pill out. That's how the movie ends.
• 1:45:32
  You know what? You're right, it is a perfect
• 1:45:35
  movie. OK, cool.
• 1:45:37
  It's 10. All right.
• 1:45:38
  Well, I'm glad that you got convinced.
• 1:45:40
  I mean it. Didn't take much but.
• 1:45:42
  Like, no, I mean the way I can excuse a lot of the weird and
• 1:45:47
  bads as like, well, it kind of plays into the strengths of the
• 1:45:52
  movie in a way. And I'm not saying that as like
• 1:45:55
  a way of like forgiving it for its shortcomings because I'm
• 1:45:58
  biased. I'm just saying, like, if you do
• 1:46:01
  make a little bit of jank like that in a surreal type of movie
• 1:46:04
  like this, a lot of times it can end up actually working in his
• 1:46:07
  favor. And I like, I'm also gonna like
• 1:46:10
  you guys have heard us talk about Cartoon Network plenty of
• 1:46:14
  times. If you're a budget to your
• 1:46:17
  patron, you've heard us cover some of the Adult Swim, Adult
• 1:46:22
  Swim stuff. We are huge fans of Tim and
• 1:46:25
  Eric, so obviously we're like in with the surreal shit.
• 1:46:31
  That's so yeah. So we might be a little bit
• 1:46:34
  biased, but I'm also going to say a lot of times when we do
• 1:46:37
  that, it's more for humor. And while this definitely is a
• 1:46:42
  funny movie, it is also incredibly horrifying.
• 1:46:46
  No, with surrealism, horror hits me probably the hardest.
• 1:46:51
  And now I I really appreciate surreal comedy too.
• 1:46:54
  But like, if you give me some surreal horror and it's like,
• 1:46:57
  actually effective with its execution, I find that to be the
• 1:47:00
  most unsettling stuff out there. Yeah.
• 1:47:02
  Because I mean, it just kind of puts you in this place where
• 1:47:05
  you're just like, what the fuck happened?
• 1:47:07
  Like am I safe? Like what the fuck?
• 1:47:10
  And I'm going to say I don't want to make a change because I
• 1:47:12
  know my criticism before was not knowing what happened with
• 1:47:15
  Shauna. Instead of making my change, I
• 1:47:17
  want to make that my sequel. I want to see that be Shauna's
• 1:47:20
  game. That's would you sequel
• 1:47:22
  potential right there. I would like to follow her
• 1:47:24
  character. I want to follow her character.
• 1:47:26
  I want to get a little bit more like inner workings of the
• 1:47:28
  society now that we've seen that like reveal and we know that
• 1:47:32
  that's a thing. I'm not saying I want an
• 1:47:34
  explanation from where they come from because I know you don't
• 1:47:36
  love that. You didn't like that with Hostel
• 1:47:38
  Part 2? I mean, we get enough of an
• 1:47:40
  explanation here. Like, it's just like it's always
• 1:47:42
  been. It's been like the top tier of
• 1:47:44
  society throughout all time. I just mean that I want to see
• 1:47:47
  like more of an explanation of the things that happen to them,
• 1:47:51
  like where we get like a hint of it with the judge getting the
• 1:47:53
  beauty mark. I want to see like maybe a
• 1:47:55
  little bit more of like how that influences like the way they
• 1:47:58
  interact with each other. We'll we'll listen to her
• 1:48:01
  sequel. That's what I'm saying.
• 1:48:02
  Like that's what I want. Like this, I'm talking about the
• 1:48:05
  sequel right now. This is what I want as a sequel.
• 1:48:07
  Yeah. And you can have Bill kind of
• 1:48:09
  show up there and like kind of give guidance to her, like, hey,
• 1:48:12
  by the way, you don't really wanna be there.
• 1:48:14
  But she's not gonna. She's gonna be like, she's gonna
• 1:48:16
  blow that off because she really wants to be a part of that.
• 1:48:19
  Exactly. I wanna see that.
• 1:48:20
  I wanna see how that happens, where like Bill is like afraid
• 1:48:24
  of it and is actively avoiding it.
• 1:48:26
  I wanna see the difference of it with Shawna, like seeking it out
• 1:48:31
  and how it affects her, like being kind of pushed out.
• 1:48:33
  I want to see her like try and tackle like an industry like she
• 1:48:36
  there in California, go to like Hollywood and see if she can
• 1:48:39
  like see what kind of like something they do over there.
• 1:48:42
  Kind of like a merge between this and what I'm hoping,
• 1:48:46
  Maxine. Is that's exactly what I was
• 1:48:48
  singing. Yeah.
• 1:48:49
  Yeah. I mean, kind of like that.
• 1:48:50
  Like she goes there and she's like, all right.
• 1:48:52
  Like I want to be famous. I want to be an actor, you know,
• 1:48:56
  She's like, I've got the looks for it.
• 1:48:58
  So like, put me in a movie and then, oh God, there's a lot of
• 1:49:03
  like, nasty potential for that. There's so there's so much
• 1:49:06
  potential. I read something that had like
• 1:49:08
  no blue links to it. So I don't know how much legs
• 1:49:12
  there are to it that supposedly there is a sequel in pre
• 1:49:19
  production which this was 11 years ago and again, no blue
• 1:49:22
  links. Yes, so, and I don't, I didn't
• 1:49:27
  look any further into it because of that.
• 1:49:29
  Yeah, but it said there is like a supposed script out there for
• 1:49:34
  society to body modification, which I don't want that 'cause
• 1:49:37
  that kind of almost sounds like American Mary.
• 1:49:41
  I guess it depends on what you do with it.
• 1:49:43
  Yeah, If it's Brian Yisner and screaming Matt George comes
• 1:49:49
  back, then fuck. Yeah, give me that.
• 1:49:50
  Yeah, I would. I will watch anything with the
• 1:49:52
  two of them. Yeah.
• 1:49:53
  Absolutely. Yeah, like I just God, someday
• 1:49:57
  we're going to cover the dentist one and two, which is also Brian
• 1:50:01
  Yeznat. Oh, Talia's not a family, OK.
• 1:50:04
  Well, this is a good time to talk about what Talia thought
• 1:50:06
  about the movie as she's speaking out.
• 1:50:09
  As you can hear, Talia came up from the streets.
• 1:50:14
  In fact, she was found in a dumpster behind an Outback.
• 1:50:18
  So she didn't just come from the streets, she came from the harsh
• 1:50:21
  desert wasteland that is Australia.
• 1:50:24
  And she doesn't trust rich people most of the time anyway
• 1:50:29
  because their floors are really wide but also really slippery
• 1:50:32
  and there are too many tall people and she just doesn't
• 1:50:35
  trust those in general. Not all rich.
• 1:50:37
  People are tall. Enough of them are and that
• 1:50:41
  makes her nervous. So I think Charlie and also like
• 1:50:45
  as much as she loves liking us to show her love, like I don't
• 1:50:49
  know that she would like it if her tongue actually literally
• 1:50:52
  merged with our skin. Yeah, she doesn't like that.
• 1:50:54
  I don't think she would. Care for that?
• 1:50:55
  Yeah. So I think Talia finds this
• 1:50:57
  movie appropriately horrifying and would also give it a 10.
• 1:51:01
  I think so too. And as of or As for Zoe's
• 1:51:06
  Ultimate Warrior? Hear me out.
• 1:51:08
  Maybe the mom? No, hear me out.
• 1:51:12
  I think it's Jim the dad. I think it's specifically
• 1:51:17
  because of the butt head joke, because we love to call Scout a
• 1:51:21
  butt head. And in fact, it is one of like
• 1:51:24
  our family history's greatest burns of all time was the fact
• 1:51:28
  that we called Scout a butt head and we said we have proof
• 1:51:31
  because she has two cheeks and it.
• 1:51:35
  It got a great reaction. I I realized that it sounds
• 1:51:38
  stupid, but Scout understood the cadence of that and she walked
• 1:51:42
  out of the room and didn't reappear for like 24 hours.
• 1:51:45
  She was. It it burned her, that was the
• 1:51:48
  burn right there that got her the way she is today.
• 1:51:51
  And I think the fact that Jim owned it and eventually made it
• 1:51:55
  a thing, and Scout to this day will now own it and just kind of
• 1:51:58
  glare at us while we make this joke.
• 1:52:00
  And because Scout is Zoe's big sister and Zoe looks to her for
• 1:52:04
  how she should react to things, I think that Zoe strongly like
• 1:52:12
  like relates to Jim. In that way, OK, I can.
• 1:52:15
  I can get behind that right there.
• 1:52:18
  And I think this is where we're gonna lose a lot of listeners
• 1:52:21
  because that was such a weird insight to our family that
• 1:52:23
  probably was not in dairy. Remember Scout, I would say
• 1:52:26
  would be plantered because he hid in the closet.
• 1:52:31
  That's Scout's thing. Scout thinks that she was a
• 1:52:35
  kitten and my roommate needed her like we needed the air
• 1:52:38
  conditioner replaced in our apartment and it was in my
• 1:52:40
  roommate's closet and they came over to replace it.
• 1:52:43
  Didn't finish it in a single day and Scout hid in the wall in the
• 1:52:48
  closet. Yep, she's a little asshole, OK?
• 1:52:55
  Who did you relate to Travis? God, who did I relate to in this
• 1:52:59
  movie? I think I relate to Milo because
• 1:53:04
  I think that like I was that friend right there, that like I
• 1:53:09
  had the rich friend and he was, he reminded me a little bit of
• 1:53:15
  Billy and that he was like the rich kid, but he didn't fit in
• 1:53:20
  with the rest of that shit. So and I, I kind of like, I
• 1:53:27
  relate to that dynamic between them.
• 1:53:28
  So I, we don't necessarily know Milo his whole background.
• 1:53:34
  We just know that he's his friend and they go to the same
• 1:53:36
  school. OK.
• 1:53:37
  But yeah, I think that that would probably be the closest
• 1:53:40
  thing for me. OK.
• 1:53:41
  What about you? Oh boy, I guess if I had to
• 1:53:48
  relate to somebody, I feel like maybe I'd relate to Martin
• 1:53:58
  Petrie. Because like, I was a nerd and I
• 1:54:06
  in theory should have been a shoe in for class president, but
• 1:54:10
  like, you know, popular people good at sports went out over me.
• 1:54:14
  Did you run for it? I think by the time I was like a
• 1:54:18
  senior where it like quote, UN quote matters.
• 1:54:20
  Like I'd given up on the thought of it, that I tried it a couple
• 1:54:23
  of times and like I remember God, not to out nerd myself, but
• 1:54:29
  we used to have the class representative and band.
• 1:54:33
  So you had one for freshman, sophomore, junior and senior.
• 1:54:37
  And I remember one time I ran against my friend and in his
• 1:54:41
  speech literally all he did was shake and bake and they ended up
• 1:54:45
  voting for him him in the stupid trumpet section and I what do?
• 1:54:50
  You expect from school I mean you're in school at the time, so
• 1:54:53
  I I respect you for actually trying that that place of like
• 1:54:56
  futures shit right there like you're.
• 1:54:58
  New. Tagline New tagline.
• 1:55:00
  What if we like feed the rich kind of go play on eat the rich
• 1:55:06
  or the rich eat instead of eat the rich?
• 1:55:10
  The rich eat. OK, sure, that works.
• 1:55:14
  Did Aerosmith convince you? No, I was actually thinking
• 1:55:17
  about it while you're. In there was.
• 1:55:18
  Just background music in my head there.
• 1:55:22
  OK, cool. OK.
• 1:55:23
  Eat the rich. Yeah, yeah.
• 1:55:25
  All right, eat the rich. The rich eat.
• 1:55:26
  Yeah, yeah, yeah. OK, all right.
• 1:55:28
  OK, OK, so on to reviews. Yes, OK.
• 1:55:34
  So. And we already did Dream SQL,
• 1:55:37
  yes, yeah. So we don't have to worry about
• 1:55:38
  that. So I know that we both love this
• 1:55:41
  movie. OK so I found a one out of 10 on
• 1:55:44
  IMDb. Fantastic.
• 1:55:46
  Even as an 80s horror fan, this is disappointing and boring.
• 1:55:50
  And this is written in 2022. Look, I love 80s horror.
• 1:55:56
  I don't mind weird storytelling or bizarre creatures.
• 1:55:59
  Above all, society is plain, right boring.
• 1:56:02
  This movie slouches to tell a story about a guy who's getting
• 1:56:04
  aware of the situation, that his family isn't what they seem to
• 1:56:07
  be. It's a great premise actually,
• 1:56:09
  and it's a great coming of age theme overall, but this movie
• 1:56:12
  doesn't get it. The pace of the story is so slow
• 1:56:15
  you could easily cut the movie down to 30 minutes without
• 1:56:17
  missing any plot lines. The great finale is just
• 1:56:20
  bizarre. Not shocking bizarre, but not
• 1:56:24
  bizarre in a cool way. Since the horror community seems
• 1:56:27
  to like the movie and I never watched it before, I was very
• 1:56:29
  excited to discover a new gem of a movie history.
• 1:56:33
  Boy was I wrong. Honestly the movie is so bad and
• 1:56:36
  boring it's a criteria to judge a person if I like him or her,
• 1:56:39
  not him, slash her or not. Really can't trust anyone who
• 1:56:43
  truly likes this movie. Save your valuable time, don't
• 1:56:48
  watch it. There's nothing entertaining
• 1:56:49
  about this movie. Wow, OK, this person needs
• 1:56:52
  something to happen on screen all the time.
• 1:56:55
  I think yes, Which that's fine. I get those types of movies.
• 1:56:58
  We were talking to Nike in the last drive and they had a
• 1:57:01
  graduation day. Where Joe Bob not.
• 1:57:05
  Yeah, he said. Every 9 minutes.
• 1:57:06
  Which is not yeah, that's not true, but death every 9 minutes,
• 1:57:10
  this is that type of person it sounds like which there's
• 1:57:12
  nothing wrong with that. There's.
• 1:57:13
  Nothing wrong with that and I get it 'cause everybody has a
• 1:57:16
  different thing they like in movies.
• 1:57:17
  And we did talk about this movie is a lot of build up and it
• 1:57:21
  really is. And for us, for the two of us,
• 1:57:24
  the build off pays. Well, it's it's a lot of build
• 1:57:28
  up, but I feel like you get enough scattered throughout the
• 1:57:31
  movie to like keep you going. Like it.
• 1:57:34
  It keeps me going. It gives me enough.
• 1:57:37
  That you're wondering like what is actually going on?
• 1:57:39
  Is this in his head, or is there something supernatural or
• 1:57:42
  extraterrestrial or what's involved?
• 1:57:44
  I thought for some watch for this right here.
• 1:57:47
  I really thought that this is going to be a movie about him
• 1:57:49
  just having shit in his head. But then by the time we get to
• 1:57:52
  the end, you get the whole reveal like, oh shit, this is
• 1:57:54
  just a weird fucking like little society cult thing that they got
• 1:57:57
  going on. Yeah, but no, like I feel like
• 1:58:01
  this movie for me has enough put in there to like you get the
• 1:58:06
  weird body shit going on, you get you get some deaths every
• 1:58:10
  now and then. You don't get like on screen
• 1:58:12
  kills. That's the thing that this movie
• 1:58:14
  lacks really, except for the end where they kill Blanchard.
• 1:58:17
  Like you don't really see anybody outright die in this
• 1:58:20
  movie, which if you got some of that, sure, that's always going
• 1:58:24
  to make a movie more entertaining for me.
• 1:58:26
  But you know, like it's not a slow burn, but it's a movie
• 1:58:31
  that's more like tell than show. And then at the end they're
• 1:58:35
  like, OK, and now we'll pull the curtain back and you'll actually
• 1:58:38
  get to see what's going on. It's more it's more of that
• 1:58:42
  build up. If you like movies that have
• 1:58:44
  like a big pay off at the end. This I'm struggling to not call
• 1:58:48
  it a slow burn because it's not a slow burn but it has like the
• 1:58:51
  same type of like principles. I'm gonna bring it back to a 24
• 1:58:57
  cuz I was reading something online where people were talking
• 1:59:00
  about Midsummer and how a person was like, I just don't like it
• 1:59:04
  because you know exactly what's coming.
• 1:59:06
  And somebody was like, but that's the thing about it is you
• 1:59:09
  know what's coming and you're still, you're along for the like
• 1:59:13
  you care about the journey of it and the weirdness that's
• 1:59:16
  happening in the hints that are dropping left and right.
• 1:59:19
  I don't think anybody could say they knew what was coming.
• 1:59:21
  With this, definitely didn't know what was coming with this,
• 1:59:25
  but you're here for the journey of him figuring it out, right?
• 1:59:29
  And you're wishing the best for him and like, you just also just
• 1:59:33
  kind of really fucking want to know.
• 1:59:34
  Yeah, I agree. Yeah.
• 1:59:37
  And that's fine if that's not the kind of movie you like.
• 1:59:41
  It's not everybody's cup of tea. And.
• 1:59:43
  Especially this is. Weird and gross and disturbing
• 1:59:47
  and we consider it a work of fucking art.
• 1:59:50
  And I understand why other people don't.
• 1:59:53
  I think it's funny though that this is what you used to judge
• 1:59:57
  if you like are like friends with a person or not.
• 2:00:01
  Yeah homie and IMDb will not be listening to.
• 2:00:04
  Us no. Or maybe like.
• 2:00:06
  This will pop up on his Spotify and he'll be like, oh, cool.
• 2:00:10
  It's they're called. What's your least favorite scary
• 2:00:12
  movie? I can finally listen to somebody
• 2:00:13
  rag on this. And then they start off and
• 2:00:15
  they're like. What the fuck?
• 2:00:16
  Yeah. I'm sure we've talked about
• 2:00:19
  movies they've watched before, too, so we're like, oh sure,
• 2:00:21
  let's listen to them shit on society.
• 2:00:23
  And it's like, no, that's not what's gonna happen in this one.
• 2:00:26
  OK, I've got our listener reviews.
• 2:00:27
  OK, I'm glad we have multiple listener reviews it sounds like.
• 2:00:30
  Yeah, we got multiple from both. OK, so I'll start off with our
• 2:00:35
  Twitter reviews. So first we have Ward Zombie.
• 2:00:39
  What's up buddy? We have him saying, I don't
• 2:00:42
  remember the first time I saw this movie, but I will never
• 2:00:45
  forget it dripping in classic 8 or away, 80s camp and inning.
• 2:00:50
  You can't Unsee once you see it. This is one movie you have to
• 2:00:53
  see just for the experience. That is a great sum up right
• 2:00:57
  there. That is exactly what you need to
• 2:00:59
  like pitch this to a random person.
• 2:01:01
  Like look. And this is probably how I would
• 2:01:03
  describe it to a lot of people. Yeah, right there.
• 2:01:05
  That's exactly how you should explain this.
• 2:01:07
  Don't say anything else. Just say look, you just got to
• 2:01:10
  experience this thing. It's.
• 2:01:11
  Wild. I I will add the caveat is that
• 2:01:14
  I'm not going to recommend this to a casual viewer.
• 2:01:17
  You recommended things to a casual.
• 2:01:19
  Viewer it was not to a casual viewers to my friend that I know
• 2:01:22
  likes other weird movies like she was the one that told me
• 2:01:27
  about Ron Jeremy's horror movie not.
• 2:01:29
  The one we covered, but. The one about his mutant penis.
• 2:01:31
  Yeah, yeah, I know she. Yeah.
• 2:01:32
  OK. All right, next we have Tyler.
• 2:01:34
  What's up? He says the opening credits
• 2:01:37
  sequence is a is such a great preview of if you can handle the
• 2:01:40
  end or not. I threw up during both.
• 2:01:46
  This movie is actually pretty clever and horrific, and those
• 2:01:49
  effects are wild. Yeah, I didn't like.
• 2:01:52
  That's a great thing, man. Like this movie has, like, the
• 2:01:54
  effects to back it up, but it also has, like, the substance to
• 2:01:57
  it, too, that actually make it carry.
• 2:02:00
  It's great, man. It's a great combination.
• 2:02:01
  I love when horror movies can actually have both of those
• 2:02:04
  going for it. Absolutely.
• 2:02:06
  Fafi Yuzu TTV says this one's so campy and batshit insane.
• 2:02:11
  Absolutely loved it. It's impossible to sit through
• 2:02:13
  this movie with a straight face. Whether you're laughing or in
• 2:02:16
  disgust. Everybody here fucking gets this
• 2:02:20
  movie I'm loving. It yeah, 'cause I think the
• 2:02:22
  people that are going to want to review it are the people that
• 2:02:25
  that's true. Get it?
• 2:02:26
  OK, let's hop on over to Instagram podcast Wasted
• 2:02:30
  Potential, says my favorite movie to show people without
• 2:02:33
  context. So they're the opposite of you.
• 2:02:36
  They're like, yeah, I'm just going to show it to people.
• 2:02:38
  I wouldn't show it to like anybody without context.
• 2:02:41
  Like I would probably show it to my mom if she hasn't listened to
• 2:02:44
  this episode. I'll.
• 2:02:45
  Show this mom and Nana, I'll be a little man.
• 2:02:47
  I got a good movie. It's about it's a great social
• 2:02:49
  commentary on society. But.
• 2:02:51
  You also tried to show your Nana Black Christmas before.
• 2:02:53
  I do remind you that it says the C word like 10 times in the 1st
• 2:02:57
  5 minutes. Which one do you think would
• 2:02:58
  hold up better in the house, Sister society or Black
• 2:03:01
  Christmas or society? I think we'd be able to get
• 2:03:03
  farther into society because like the weirdness is just a
• 2:03:07
  little off putting at first. Whereas again in the 1st 5
• 2:03:11
  minutes of Black Christmas we hear the word cunt.
• 2:03:13
  Yeah, but. We also.
• 2:03:15
  And your mom would be going. Where's Mommy?
• 2:03:17
  We got weird nudity in this. Too like he sees his sister with
• 2:03:20
  like a backwards torso in her butt and boobies like.
• 2:03:24
  All suggested it's not explicit until part way through.
• 2:03:28
  I think we could make it a certain amount.
• 2:03:29
  I think that class. Wasn't doing a lot of good work,
• 2:03:32
  I was getting a pretty good visual.
• 2:03:33
  In terms of quantity, I think we'd make it farther with
• 2:03:36
  society than we would like Christmas.
• 2:03:38
  That's fair. Our buddy Justin, 3000.
• 2:03:44
  Oh yeah, it doesn't. He just says time for the
• 2:03:46
  shunting. Yeah.
• 2:03:48
  Hell yeah, baby. If you know, you know.
• 2:03:51
  Yeah, keep safe, says Brian. Yezna rules and I love the style
• 2:03:55
  of this one. Brian.
• 2:03:57
  Yezna does fucking role. He does, and like generally I
• 2:04:00
  love the style of all of his movies because I think he brings
• 2:04:02
  the same energy towards all the shit that he does.
• 2:04:05
  Like there are certain directors that I'm going to watch
• 2:04:07
  basically anything they put out. It's like Brian Yezna, Jordan
• 2:04:11
  Peele, Ari Oster, Robert Eggers, and then who's the fucking guy
• 2:04:18
  that does the loved ones in hard candy?
• 2:04:23
  Fuck, what is his name? He's got a new one coming out
• 2:04:26
  finally, eventually, right? What the fuck is his name?
• 2:04:29
  Yeah, I can't remember his name. I'm sorry.
• 2:04:32
  Oh God, yeah, no, those are like directors that I like implicitly
• 2:04:36
  trust. His name is Sean Byrne.
• 2:04:40
  Sean Byrne Yeah, Yes. Like there are some directors
• 2:04:44
  that I'm just like, you've not. Yeah, like I'm gonna watch just
• 2:04:48
  because I trust you. Yeah.
• 2:04:50
  OK, final review. OK Tucker, who is like been one
• 2:04:54
  of the biggest fans that I've known of this movie in person
• 2:04:57
  for a long time. He's actually met Brian Yazner
• 2:05:00
  recently. Oh, I'm so happy.
• 2:05:01
  For him, yeah, He actually, I think, discussed this movie.
• 2:05:05
  But Tucker says OK, it is an actual crime that this movie
• 2:05:08
  doesn't get talked about more. It has everything you can ask
• 2:05:11
  for from a coked out 80s body horror feature.
• 2:05:14
  Full Throttle Yuzna and screaming mad George pot shots
• 2:05:19
  at the 1% I parentheses. Epstein 100% has a shunt or two
• 2:05:24
  on his island. Goop and gore.
• 2:05:26
  Gore, the butt head, the hen head.
• 2:05:29
  Oh fuck, I forgot about the hen head.
• 2:05:31
  Oh my. God yes, we're the.
• 2:05:33
  Therapist is like you just need a.
• 2:05:34
  Hand. Yeah.
• 2:05:35
  Oh, I forgot about that. All of the heads.
• 2:05:38
  This movie is peak body horror comedy and deserves all the love
• 2:05:42
  in the world. 10 out of 10. Fuck yeah.
• 2:05:44
  Tucker, you nailed that shit. Yeah.
• 2:05:47
  Oh my God, thank you for reminding me of the handhead.
• 2:05:49
  That was a great effect too. I remember seeing that thinking.
• 2:05:52
  Oh my God. So much happening in that like
• 2:05:55
  15 minute stretch. That's true.
• 2:05:57
  Please forgive us. We had to process a lot of shit
• 2:05:59
  with that one right there 'cause there was just so much going on.
• 2:06:03
  Oh my God, yeah. This movie is just so great.
• 2:06:05
  It's perfect. It's amazing, and I'm glad we're
• 2:06:07
  ending it on a high note. We're ending prom note on a high
• 2:06:10
  prom month on a high note. Yeah.
• 2:06:12
  And I guess that means it's time to announce that next month is
• 2:06:17
  June. And like last year, we're gonna
• 2:06:19
  be doing Pride Month. So that means that all of our
• 2:06:23
  proceeds that we get from Patreon subscriptions are going
• 2:06:26
  to go once again to the Trevor Project.
• 2:06:29
  Yeah. So if you have been curious
• 2:06:32
  about our Patreon one and you want to kind of maybe make a one
• 2:06:36
  time donation to the Trevor Project while also getting
• 2:06:39
  something out of it, you can subscribe to us for a month,
• 2:06:42
  download all of our shit and then.
• 2:06:45
  Leave. Yeah, our feelings won't be
• 2:06:47
  hurt. We just want to well.
• 2:06:49
  We appreciate the contribution. Yeah, we just wanna get the
• 2:06:51
  Trevor Project as much money as they can possibly get because
• 2:06:55
  they're doing great work. They're supporting LGBTQ youth
• 2:06:58
  who, as we know in our society, are not getting as much support
• 2:07:04
  as they want, need and deserve. Yeah, so that means?
• 2:07:09
  All of our movies are going to be focusing around queer themes
• 2:07:13
  in one way or another, be it that somebody involved in the
• 2:07:17
  production of it, writer, director, actor, producer or
• 2:07:19
  something. They are LGBTQ themselves.
• 2:07:23
  Maybe there's an LGBTQ plot line, or maybe there's.
• 2:07:26
  Just. A lot of an LGBTQ reading of a
• 2:07:30
  movie. Yeah, just.
• 2:07:31
  A lot of things, yeah. Yes, so.
• 2:07:34
  Jessie does like a whole segment on the episodes too, where she
• 2:07:37
  goes into like the readings of all this stuff and why it's
• 2:07:39
  important to the LGBT community so.
• 2:07:42
  Yes, that's what I did last year, was I either looked into
• 2:07:45
  stuff that tied the movie into it, if it wasn't necessarily
• 2:07:49
  explicit, or if it was explicit, then I just provided some
• 2:07:53
  statistics that I found to be interesting.
• 2:07:55
  Yeah. So that's what we're doing again
• 2:07:58
  this year. It's very important to us and
• 2:08:00
  it's very exciting for us. So what's our first movie of
• 2:08:04
  Pride Month then? So our first movie of Pride
• 2:08:06
  Month is actually something I've been wanting to watch for a
• 2:08:08
  while and I didn't really realize I hadn't watch.
• 2:08:12
  I thought I had watched it and I got it mixed up with a different
• 2:08:15
  similar It's either the same director, same producer or
• 2:08:19
  writer, I forget exactly. I was getting it confused with
• 2:08:22
  The Devil's Carnival, but it's actually a different horror
• 2:08:28
  musical and it is in fact Repo the Genetic Opera, which I
• 2:08:32
  learned when I was listening to the The Sensit Prom coverage of
• 2:08:37
  it recently that I haven't seen this, but IA 100% need to see
• 2:08:42
  this. Mm hmm.
• 2:08:43
  And we're at the end of the month right now.
• 2:08:46
  And I know normally that makes it hard to say where it's gonna
• 2:08:51
  be available to watch, but this is generally an accessible movie
• 2:08:55
