- 1:45Speaker 3: Welcome back to Friday Night's podcast. I'm your host Austin
- 1:47Speaker 3: Proctor and joining me today for episode three ninety one.
- 1:51Speaker 3: Is my good friend Derek Ferrera is my beautiful wife,
- 1:57Speaker 3: Gabrielle Proctor. Hello, Hello, a guy.
- 2:00Speaker 1: You're welcome.
- 2:03Speaker 3: The emotional weight I have to carry around from not
- 2:06Speaker 3: only making you watch this, Derek watched this, and anybody
- 2:10Speaker 3: else who's listening to this episode. I have to just
- 2:13Speaker 3: carry that around with me for the rest.
- 2:15Speaker 1: It helps. We've definitely watched worst movies. This movie had faults,
- 2:19Speaker 1: but not in the Jesus kind of way.
- 2:22Speaker 3: Okay, so we have two totally different views on this.
- 2:25Speaker 1: It was a bad movie. I'm just saying that we've
- 2:27Speaker 1: watched worse movies.
- 2:28Speaker 3: And it pisses me off. We'll get into it today.
- 2:34Speaker 3: On the last installment of July Anthropes Howl, we're discussing
- 2:37Speaker 3: our wild card pick and boys. That's yep, that's right
- 2:41Speaker 3: on the nose. Very wild Card Werewols on wheels from
- 2:45Speaker 3: nineteen seventy one. I didn't write a witty one liner
- 2:48Speaker 3: about this movie. The movie is just the joke itself.
- 2:51Speaker 3: It's good God. Let's see where this lands on the
- 2:54Speaker 3: nightmare index. I think it's gonna land. It's gonna be
- 2:57Speaker 3: way down there.
- 2:59Speaker 1: How sue you out.
- 3:03Speaker 3: So before we move on to what is arguably one
- 3:06Speaker 3: of the worst movies I've ever seen, and I don't
- 3:09Speaker 3: say that lightly, let's talk about some things that we've
- 3:12Speaker 3: watched recently that we did like, and then we're gonna
- 3:15Speaker 3: end on something we did not like. Unfortunately, we just
- 3:18Speaker 3: had like two back to back stinkers, which is never fun,
- 3:21Speaker 3: and I desperately needed a palate cleanser. So I'm like
- 3:24Speaker 3: right in the middle of Franken Hooker because I had
- 3:26Speaker 3: to laugh or I part of me might have died.
- 3:29Speaker 3: So what have you watched since we Since we last podcast,
- 3:33Speaker 3: I've watched like all.
- 3:34Speaker 1: Of this with you. Finally got to see Exit eight.
- 3:37Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's right.
- 3:38Speaker 1: I enjoyed that. We've been kind of.
- 3:40Speaker 3: Thank you to Alliance Entertainment.
- 3:42Speaker 1: Yeah, we watched Curse together, always a delight.
- 3:47Speaker 3: Which ultimately should have that's my wild card recommendation. Yeah,
- 3:51Speaker 3: it was gonna be on the show for a wild card,
- 3:54Speaker 3: but we've already both seen it and love it. So
- 3:57Speaker 3: the whole thing with the wild card is no one's
- 3:58Speaker 3: supposed to have seen it. That's why it's a wild card,
- 4:00Speaker 3: because it's either going to be good or bad. So yeah,
- 4:04Speaker 3: I will second that I did end up giving Cursed
- 4:06Speaker 3: a bump up from a three to a four.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Yeah, we have been watching Oh that's what we got
- 4:12Speaker 1: to watch tonight. We got to watch that next Spider
- 4:14Speaker 1: Man because we've been rewatching this Spider Man's in preparation
- 4:18Speaker 1: for the new movie, which I've heard great things about.
- 4:21Speaker 1: Very excited. My two favorite heroes are Batman and Spider Man,
- 4:25Speaker 1: and I know that they're the most popular. I don't care.
- 4:28Speaker 3: I don't care.
- 4:29Speaker 1: But then yeah, I'm mostly kids movies and true crime
- 4:33Speaker 1: with you currently trying to convince you to watch Mulan.
- 4:38Speaker 3: Maybe I'm so torn on baz Lerrman only because I
- 4:43Speaker 3: know I but you know, you start with Romeo plus
- 4:46Speaker 3: Juliet was You're either going to be very much into
- 4:49Speaker 3: or very much not into. I'll let people decide where
- 4:53Speaker 3: they think I'm at, and that you.
- 4:55Speaker 1: Know, Mulan is a totally different bag.
- 4:58Speaker 3: It's the same director.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a totally different bag.
- 5:02Speaker 3: I don't know.
- 5:02Speaker 1: And if it's just if Romeo and Juliet is too much?
- 5:07Speaker 1: And do you watch Strictly Ballroom because it's it was
- 5:11Speaker 1: an older one of his films. It it's more toned down.
- 5:15Speaker 1: I mean, you've still got some of that like exaggerated acting,
- 5:18Speaker 1: which really just makes it so fun to watch, but
- 5:20Speaker 1: it's much more compressed. There's not crazy amounts of stylized
- 5:26Speaker 1: things outside of the ballroom dancing costumes. Now, if you
- 5:30Speaker 1: liked how stylized Romeo and Juliet was, but the pacing
- 5:36Speaker 1: maybe was just a little too jarring for you, but
- 5:40Speaker 1: you really liked how he did set design, or I
- 5:42Speaker 1: like how he chose his set designs, and like how
- 5:44Speaker 1: it felt like its own little pocket world. Mulan Rouge
- 5:48Speaker 1: tones it down a bit a bit. You've still got
- 5:51Speaker 1: people who are really passionate, but they are passionate about
- 5:54Speaker 1: throwing a musical on at the Mulan Rouge. And you've
- 5:58Speaker 1: got a beautiful love story rolling through, uh that, and
- 6:03Speaker 1: it's an original story. So I think Romeo and Juliette
- 6:07Speaker 1: can really throw people off. I personally love it, but.
- 6:10Speaker 3: What what I'm saying, there's there's the split right there.
- 6:13Speaker 3: You love it or you hate it. And I when
- 6:16Speaker 3: I remember when we were watching this like two minutes
- 6:18Speaker 3: and I was like, are they going to be rhyming
- 6:19Speaker 3: the whole time? And you said yes, and I was like,
- 6:20Speaker 3: I'm I give up or sorry not rhyming? Yeah?
- 6:25Speaker 1: They I mean they yeah. But I love that they
- 6:28Speaker 1: did that because you still get what's going on. And
- 6:31Speaker 1: I think that was baz Lerman's point, is he was
- 6:33Speaker 1: trying to prove that you could still follow the movie
- 6:35Speaker 1: without throwing it fully into modern language.
- 6:38Speaker 3: Prove not for.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Me, Yeah they don't. Everybody speaks pretty modern in mulan Ruge.
- 6:46Speaker 3: It's like that episode of How Much Your Mother, where
- 6:48Speaker 3: the entire episode they rhyme and two seconds into that episode.
- 6:51Speaker 3: I skip it every time because I'll go fucking crazy.
- 6:54Speaker 3: I don't I don't know. That's just my my adhd
- 6:56Speaker 3: O c D alemento pe brain. So I don't remember
- 7:00Speaker 3: where I stopped talking movie wise, last last episode. So,
- 7:04Speaker 3: uh you we're in the twenty fourth Well, I know
- 7:07Speaker 3: we talked about deep Water, right, we had to wait? Okay,
- 7:09Speaker 3: So then so then I'll talk about Dead Media because
- 7:13Speaker 3: I'm actually the I've got an upcoming. I don't even
- 7:16Speaker 3: know if I mentioned this yet. Shit, I'm so out
- 7:18Speaker 3: of it. This movie literally fucked my brain so bad.
- 7:22Speaker 3: So Dead Media is a new movie coming out this year,
- 7:24Speaker 3: horror movie indie movie I spoke to the director recently
- 7:28Speaker 3: after I watched set movie. It's a very good nineties
- 7:32Speaker 3: nostalgia trip. It's got a movie in a movie. I
- 7:36Speaker 3: think I did it. Oh, I did a TikTok on it.
- 7:38Speaker 3: That's why I'm all confused. Yeah, so you can go
- 7:40Speaker 3: check out my you know, insta TikTok video on it.
- 7:42Speaker 3: It's really good. And uh, not just saying that because
- 7:45Speaker 3: I'm interviewing the director. If you've listened to this show before,
- 7:48Speaker 3: you know that I you know, I picked movies that
- 7:51Speaker 3: I enjoy and try to talk to people that made it.
- 7:54Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 7:55Speaker 3: So yeah, dead Media. Uh, it's good time. It should
- 7:59Speaker 3: be available for streaming by now. I think I'll have
- 8:01Speaker 3: to check on that. I watched it. Got to catch
- 8:04Speaker 3: up with my cult movie challenges here. I watched Invasion
- 8:07Speaker 3: of the Body Snatchers for Rare Lust week. Good. If
- 8:11Speaker 3: you're confused, don't worry, so am I. But rare Lust
- 8:13Speaker 3: is an online archive, and it's a community dedicated to
- 8:16Speaker 3: preserving and sharing rare, obscure, cult and vintage films, which
- 8:20Speaker 3: are typically often hard to find mainstream mainstream streaming. So
- 8:25Speaker 3: the og Body Snatchers from nineteen fifty six really good time,
- 8:28Speaker 3: shockingly because you know how like The Blob and the Thing,
- 8:31Speaker 3: the original movies aren't aren't like that great, but the
- 8:34Speaker 3: eighties remakes are amazing. Yeah, like the original Fly was
- 8:39Speaker 3: it was a great movie, and the remake by Cronenberg
- 8:41Speaker 3: was ultimately better, I think. But this was actually really solid,
- 8:45Speaker 3: so much so that I put on the remake directly
- 8:47Speaker 3: after when you Were Out with the Kiddo and compared
- 8:51Speaker 3: them like basically side by side, and they were very
- 8:55Speaker 3: similar but obviously very different at the same time. But
- 8:57Speaker 3: I ended up giving the original a four, where the
- 9:00Speaker 3: new one, which we reviewed on this show is at
- 9:01Speaker 3: a four and a half. But I was wildly impressed
- 9:04Speaker 3: with the original. I want to show that to you
- 9:07Speaker 3: at some point.
- 9:07Speaker 1: God, I'd like to see it.
- 9:09Speaker 3: Very good, especially for it being in the fifties. Watched Howell,
- 9:12Speaker 3: which is a definitely an underrated a werewolf movie from
- 9:16Speaker 3: twenty fifteen. I believe it's from the UK. It only
- 9:19Speaker 3: has a two point six, but I really enjoy it.
- 9:22Speaker 3: It's an entire train full of people that get I
- 9:26Speaker 3: think they get stopped out. I can't remember what happens
- 9:28Speaker 3: to the train, but they stopped in the middle of
- 9:29Speaker 3: the Yeah, they stop in the middle of nowhere and
- 9:31Speaker 3: then like get invaded by fucking It's like trained to
- 9:34Speaker 3: bussan except the train has stopped and there's werewolves. So yeah,
- 9:38Speaker 3: so not like it at all. Uh yeah, so that
- 9:41Speaker 3: one was good. Three and a half stars for Howell. Then, yeah,
- 9:46Speaker 3: you already talked about Jack's Back. What was my review
- 9:48Speaker 3: for Jack's Back? Oh, that was a horror movie. That
- 9:50Speaker 3: was such a strange movie. And then we watched Cursed.
- 9:53Speaker 3: What was the We watched a couple of true crimes.
- 9:55Speaker 3: What were they? I want to talk about them for
- 9:57Speaker 3: a second. We watched Toxic the Love I haven't Toxic
- 10:01Speaker 3: Love Story. I just haven't rated and reviewed them yet.
- 10:04Speaker 3: That was a new, brand new one on.
- 10:05Speaker 1: Netflix, right, Yes, that had just dropped on Netflix.
- 10:08Speaker 3: Holy shit.
- 10:09Speaker 1: Yeah that one was crazy. Just everybody's the problem, but
- 10:13Speaker 1: maybe not everybody, but okay, so two thirds of the
- 10:15Speaker 1: people are the problem.
- 10:17Speaker 3: My crazy matches you. That's all I can think about
- 10:19Speaker 3: is the Deadpool line. My crazy matches You're crazy. It's like,
- 10:22Speaker 3: oh my god, that deserved I think multiple episodes because
- 10:26Speaker 3: they crammed so much into it.
- 10:28Speaker 1: And that was what the part I didn't like is
- 10:30Speaker 1: they crammed some stuff into it, they skipped over some things,
- 10:33Speaker 1: and then I felt like we were kind of left
- 10:34Speaker 1: hanging about some stuff.
- 10:37Speaker 3: I'm starting to actually rate my documentaries by this one
- 10:41Speaker 3: really was the deciding factor of like it was probably
- 10:44Speaker 3: one of the wildest ones I've seen, but ultimately needed
- 10:47Speaker 3: more time to breathe. It was they crammed so much in.
- 10:50Speaker 1: There, and I see you that as the wildest and
- 10:52Speaker 1: raise you the Kings of Tuplow.
- 10:55Speaker 3: God.
- 10:55Speaker 1: That was crime saga, all so wild. But again, they
- 10:59Speaker 1: kind of dropped off some plot point, not plot points,
- 11:02Speaker 1: but like things that were happening that they made parts of,
- 11:05Speaker 1: like whole episodes around, and then just didn't really get
- 11:08Speaker 1: around to how those things spanned out.
- 11:10Speaker 3: Yeah, it reminded me me very much of Tiger King.
- 11:14Speaker 3: We're watching this, I'm like, this is about as as wild,
- 11:17Speaker 3: Like the.
- 11:18Speaker 1: Thing will be as wild as Tiger King.
- 11:20Speaker 3: No, I'm saying it just I was getting from the
- 11:22Speaker 3: main guy with the conspiracy. Oh yeah, yeah, because like
- 11:26Speaker 3: I was getting vibes of you know, Joe King from him,
- 11:29Speaker 3: just with how bizarre he was. I love a good
- 11:32Speaker 3: conspiracy theory, don't get me wrong, but man, this one
- 11:35Speaker 3: was out there. And also I don't think it never
- 11:38Speaker 3: got answered. I don't think the question ever got answered.
- 11:41Speaker 3: So uh, and then we watched another one. What was
- 11:43Speaker 3: the other one we watched? Was that the Mariah one?
- 11:45Speaker 1: Yeah, you already talked about that.
- 11:47Speaker 3: I thought we watched Okay, maybe I'm misremembering. No, no, Tupelo.
- 11:52Speaker 3: And the other one took a while?
- 11:53Speaker 1: Was it it was more episodes than it was three
- 11:55Speaker 1: or four?
- 11:56Speaker 3: Was that a new one for this year too?
- 11:57Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 11:57Speaker 1: It was twenty twenty four.
- 11:58Speaker 3: Twenty four. Okay, well, usually we kill more time than that,
- 12:02Speaker 3: but there's no sense in wasting time because I want
- 12:06Speaker 3: to get this discussion. This is one of the rare
- 12:09Speaker 3: times I'm not excited to talk about a movie, but
- 12:11Speaker 3: here we are, so I guess let's roll into the
- 12:14Speaker 3: body count. This is also what happens when you're on
- 12:21Speaker 3: back to back episodes. Because I couldn't make it work
- 12:24Speaker 3: with other people.
- 12:26Speaker 1: I've been watching Shit's Creak, so I don't have as
- 12:28Speaker 1: many movies.
- 12:28Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that's true. You're in a she or in
- 12:30Speaker 3: a show. You did mention that, like last time when
- 12:33Speaker 3: you were bragging about your stats, You're like I could
- 12:35Speaker 3: get sucked into a show, and I am and you are. So.
- 12:38Speaker 3: This is were Wolves on Wheels from nineteen seventy one,
- 12:42Speaker 3: which came out November nineteenth of that year in the US.
- 12:45Speaker 3: It is rated R for moderate sex and nudity, moderate
- 12:48Speaker 3: violence and gore, mild profanity, moderate alcohol, drugs and smoking.
- 12:52Speaker 3: I would say that's severe. They're drinking in almost every scene,
- 12:55Speaker 3: and mild frightening and intense scenes. Thank god, it's only
- 12:58Speaker 3: an hour and twenty minutes. Don't ask me why it's
- 13:00Speaker 3: listed as only a horror movie. Was the horror in
- 13:03Speaker 3: the room with us?
- 13:05Speaker 1: There were those bits, then the times that sort of happened.
- 13:08Speaker 3: Is it the trauma that I'm left with? Is that
- 13:10Speaker 3: the horror?
- 13:11Speaker 1: I mean, maybe the.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Movie mentally abused me and I don't appreciate it. It's
- 13:16Speaker 3: like a god directed by Michael Levis Skway, who only
- 13:21Speaker 3: directed four other movies. I wonder why, and only one
- 13:25Speaker 3: other movie has a poster. It's called Sweet Sugar from
- 13:28Speaker 3: eineteen seventy two, written by David M. Kaufman. Forgot to
- 13:31Speaker 3: check the relation to Lloyd Kaufman. Could you help me
- 13:33Speaker 3: out on that, who also wrote three total movies, and
- 13:37Speaker 3: the only other one with a poster on IMDb is
- 13:39Speaker 3: called Girls on the Road nineteen seventy two, and the
- 13:42Speaker 3: same thing goes for Michael Leviskway wrote three only one
- 13:46Speaker 3: has a poster called Girls on the Road, composed by
- 13:50Speaker 3: Don gear who also composed Sweet Sugar, and that is
- 13:53Speaker 3: the extent of his credits. That's it. Cinematography by Isador Mankowski,
- 13:58Speaker 3: who also did these skinnontography for Scream.
- 14:02Speaker 1: There's no relation.
- 14:03Speaker 3: Huh, no relation, Oh, no relation. Also did the cinematography
- 14:07Speaker 3: for Scream, Blackula, Scream Carrie, although technically uncredited, and then
- 14:11Speaker 3: the Muppet movie, so he took a huge step up.
- 14:14Speaker 3: It's good for him. Edited by Peter Paraschelles, who also
- 14:18Speaker 3: edited Don Quixote and seventeen other movies I haven't heard of.
- 14:22Speaker 3: Then we have starring Steve Oliver as Adam, who's most
- 14:25Speaker 3: famous for The Naked Zoo as Terry Shaw Okay, silence,
- 14:30Speaker 3: just utter silence. Donna Anderson as Helen who is also
- 14:34Speaker 3: in count yorga Vampire as Donna. Okay, Jean Shallat as
- 14:39Speaker 3: Taro even though everyone was calling him to Row, which
- 14:42Speaker 3: pissed me the hell off. Not even pronouncing it right,
- 14:44Speaker 3: or am I pronouncing it wrong? It's Taro right, It's Taro.
- 14:48Speaker 1: Also think it's really hilarious. They just like lost Boys
- 14:51Speaker 1: this shit. We're gonna give you names based on that
- 14:55Speaker 1: thing you're into.
- 14:56Speaker 3: Yep. And he was also in Funny Enough The Velvet
- 15:00Speaker 3: Vampire as Carl Stoker. Oh that was the other thing
- 15:03Speaker 3: I forgot to talk about. Whatever, It's fine my other
- 15:05Speaker 3: cult movie challenge. I haven't raided yet. Uh. Billy Gray
- 15:09Speaker 3: is Phil who was also in the original The Day
- 15:12Speaker 3: of the Year Stood Still as Bobby Benson. Someone spent
- 15:15Speaker 3: two hundred and sixty five thousand dollars on this. I
- 15:17Speaker 3: don't even understand how it costs that much. It was
- 15:20Speaker 3: basically a dude in the back of his van getting
- 15:23Speaker 3: forty seven motorcycle montages. Worldwide box office grows of na
- 15:28Speaker 3: probably because it didn't go to cinema. I don't know
- 15:31Speaker 3: film in California, but every city had video commentary or
- 15:36Speaker 3: desert sands underneath it, So I don't know what parts
- 15:38Speaker 3: of California because like literally every city listed had video commentary.
- 15:43Speaker 3: So I'm a cool. You can watch this on two
- 15:46Speaker 3: WEE Pluto and Plex Movies that came out around the
- 15:49Speaker 3: same time. I never thought I would say I would
- 15:51Speaker 3: rather watch a clockwork Orange than another movie. But here
- 15:54Speaker 3: we are Dirty Harry, the French Connection, Harold and Maud, Cabaret,
- 15:59Speaker 3: the Last Picture Show, Fiddler on the Roof, Macbeth, and
- 16:03Speaker 3: Dracula Versus Frankenstein. Yes, Dracula Versus Frankenstein is a very
- 16:06Speaker 3: real movie.
- 16:08Speaker 1: I've seen three of those.
- 16:10Speaker 3: Clockwork Orange, Fiddler on the Roof and Cabre. Yeah, that
- 16:14Speaker 3: was easy. That was I think that might have been
- 16:16Speaker 3: the easiest one.
- 16:17Speaker 1: One day, I'll get you to watch Fiddler on the Roof,
- 16:19Speaker 1: but you have to be emotionally prepared for the back
- 16:21Speaker 1: half of that movie.
- 16:22Speaker 3: And have about a day and a half to watch it, because.
- 16:24Speaker 1: It's like, oh, the first half is so good, and
- 16:27Speaker 1: it's like the songs are just you'll hear the songs
- 16:30Speaker 1: and be like, oh, I've heard this before because they
- 16:33Speaker 1: like Even Gwen Stefani sampled a song when she was
- 16:36Speaker 1: going through a horror era that if I were say
- 16:38Speaker 1: that again, the horror Harku, Yeah, where she had the
- 16:42Speaker 1: four girls that she was treating like props instead of
- 16:44Speaker 1: people to follow her around. The four Japanese girls. Sure
- 16:48Speaker 1: when she did her solo career. Oh and she she
- 16:53Speaker 1: sampled if I were a rich man, if I were
- 16:56Speaker 1: a rich girl, that's that song. Obviously she changed the
- 16:58Speaker 1: law of Lyricspence.
- 17:00Speaker 3: Boy for I can sell I can think of is
- 17:02Speaker 3: from saying not that.
- 17:05Speaker 1: But yeah, so but it's it's really good. And one
- 17:10Speaker 1: of the guys from Flash Gordon, not Flash, is in it.
- 17:13Speaker 1: Oh he's the crazy scientist that shot Flash Gordon into space.
- 17:17Speaker 3: He's a savior of the universe. Yeah, where were we?
- 17:21Speaker 3: What started that?
- 17:23Speaker 1: I was saying that one day I'll get you to
- 17:24Speaker 1: watch Fiddler on the Road.
- 17:25Speaker 3: Oh, okay, sorry, I'm telling you this brain is. This movie
- 17:28Speaker 3: has rotted my brain so much I don't know who
- 17:30Speaker 3: I am anymore. I AMDB summary. Now I'm gonna give
- 17:33Speaker 3: you two different ones. Right, I'm gonna give you the
- 17:35Speaker 3: one that's on IMDb, But then i'm gonna give you
- 17:38Speaker 3: the two B one because they're similar. So this one,
- 17:41Speaker 3: it's a biker gang and it's leader fall prey to
- 17:43Speaker 3: a Satan worshiper and his cult. Okay, sure, that happens
- 17:48Speaker 3: about you know, ten minutes ten, but it's not really Okay,
- 17:52Speaker 3: Twob says a biker gang refuses to sacrifice a female
- 17:55Speaker 3: rider two devil worshiping monks, but she's been possessed anyway
- 17:58Speaker 3: and turns into a werewel every night fucking what.
- 18:03Speaker 1: I mean, technically that is what happened, But refused is
- 18:08Speaker 1: a strong wrong implication. So I would say they rescued her,
- 18:13Speaker 1: but like too late, I think would be more accurate.
- 18:16Speaker 1: But they didn't actually refuse because they were unconscious.
- 18:19Speaker 3: Correct. Yeah, and then the letterbox one is entirely too long,
- 18:24Speaker 3: so I'm not going to read that one. Let's move
- 18:25Speaker 3: on to the autopsy. Here, we are sitting across those
- 18:32Speaker 3: tables we've done many times. What are your overall thoughts?
- 18:36Speaker 1: Can you want me to just read my thoughts that
- 18:38Speaker 1: I had over the course of the film.
- 18:40Speaker 3: I don't know, because this is this is the rare time,
- 18:43Speaker 3: rare only time that you've taken notes and I haven't
- 18:48Speaker 3: because this brain, this move keeps saying, this brain, this
- 18:50Speaker 3: movie turned my brain to fucking mush. I don't know.
- 18:54Speaker 3: I kind of want to pepper them out, but I
- 18:56Speaker 3: kind of want to hear you ramble them off. I
- 18:58Speaker 3: just feel like everything you're gonna say has a path
- 19:01Speaker 3: to go down probably so then just yeah, overall thoughts
- 19:06Speaker 3: for were wolves with that were wolves on wheels.
- 19:08Speaker 1: Okay, So my first thought watching this was this is
- 19:12Speaker 1: an interesting plot idea. Not initially when it opened up,
- 19:16Speaker 1: I was like, all right, we're harassing the gas station
- 19:20Speaker 1: man who was very friendly to you for reasons. I like,
- 19:26Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I get the whole we're bad,
- 19:28Speaker 1: we do what we want thing with biker gangs. But
- 19:32Speaker 1: if you're a dick to every gas station on the road,
- 19:37Speaker 1: they're not going to want to give you the gas.
- 19:40Speaker 1: And I feel like you need that to keep that
- 19:43Speaker 1: train a roll in, So you know, pick and choose
- 19:48Speaker 1: where you're going to be a dick.
- 19:50Speaker 3: But wait, are you reading them?
- 19:52Speaker 1: No, I'm not reading. I'm saying about how I felt
- 19:54Speaker 1: about it.
- 19:55Speaker 3: These are struck No, I'm just talking.
- 19:58Speaker 1: I haven't read any of this.
- 19:59Speaker 3: Okay, good. I was like, are we not on the
- 20:01Speaker 3: same page?
- 20:03Speaker 1: But now the the story idea of these bikers getting
- 20:09Speaker 1: shit faced kind of stumbling into this temple situation and unintentionally,
- 20:15Speaker 1: like unintentionally setting off this chain of events and having
- 20:18Speaker 1: to deal with the consequences, that's a great idea. Yeah,
- 20:24Speaker 1: I kept thinking the whole time. I can picture this
- 20:26Speaker 1: movie written so much better, because there were so many
- 20:30Speaker 1: parts throughout this film where I'm like, a conversation here
- 20:34Speaker 1: would have been really good, or developing this thing they're
- 20:37Speaker 1: doing would have been so great, but like they it
- 20:41Speaker 1: was so underdeveloped. I'm surprised that it was as coherent
- 20:47Speaker 1: as it was, which is saying a lot, because you really,
- 20:51Speaker 1: if I hadn't read that blurb, I would have been
- 20:53Speaker 1: more confused.
- 20:54Speaker 3: Yeah, because I read the two B blurb see, and
- 20:56Speaker 3: I read that after the movie and I was like,
- 20:58Speaker 3: is that what was happening?
- 21:00Speaker 1: Yeah, So because I had read that, it made more sense.
- 21:03Speaker 3: Yeah, totally, I'm sure and everyone who watched it, I
- 21:07Speaker 3: assume on two be because Plutomplex Suck probably had the
- 21:11Speaker 3: same thing. I didn't read that until after because I
- 21:14Speaker 3: originally started it on my Blu ray. But there's no
- 21:16Speaker 3: fucking subtitles, and that's an immediate cell to get out
- 21:19Speaker 3: of my collection right off the bat. I need subtitles.
- 21:22Speaker 3: If you're gonna put out a movie from a boutique
- 21:24Speaker 3: label and you don't minimum have subtitles, you're failing miserably.
- 21:27Speaker 3: But that's a whole other conversation, so that that was
- 21:29Speaker 3: already an immediate cell because, like I said, I need subtitles,
- 21:32Speaker 3: So I just started watching it on two B so
- 21:34Speaker 3: I could have subtitles. But I didn't bother reading the
- 21:36Speaker 3: synopsis because I figured it would be about the same
- 21:39Speaker 3: wildly different synopsis, synopsis, synopsises, whatever. So do you have
- 21:45Speaker 3: more to say? Okay, so not not great overall.
- 21:49Speaker 1: No, it was mostly because the story was under developed
- 21:54Speaker 1: and the dialogue was underdeveloped.
- 21:56Speaker 3: Nothing.
- 21:56Speaker 1: Not that the story stuff happened.
- 22:00Speaker 3: Nothing happened.
- 22:01Speaker 1: Yeah they did. They got drunk, they had the whole
- 22:05Speaker 1: Satan temple thing. Then they fuck off on their way.
- 22:08Speaker 1: They're like, we're going out of town. We're gonna you know,
- 22:11Speaker 1: try to deal with it. You get your first attack,
- 22:13Speaker 1: they're like, oh shit, there must be something we need
- 22:15Speaker 1: to move on somewhere else. Guy number two dies, uh.
- 22:19Speaker 1: Terreau there is like, hey, there's some freaky shit happening.
- 22:24Speaker 1: The lead uh, the leader there blows them off or
- 22:27Speaker 1: blows him off and is like, no, you need to
- 22:29Speaker 1: shut the fuck up about this.
- 22:30Speaker 3: He's the only one that has like a normal names
- 22:32Speaker 3: Adam right, yeah.
- 22:33Speaker 1: Yeah, uh. Then they but then it really jumps to Okay, well,
- 22:38Speaker 1: now we're going to prepare to fight whatever the fuck
- 22:41Speaker 1: this is. We don't even know what it is. So
- 22:43Speaker 1: stuff was happening. They were trying to outrun whatever, they
- 22:46Speaker 1: were trying to get away from whatever. It wasn't until
- 22:49Speaker 1: the second thing that they're like, maybe there is some
- 22:51Speaker 1: weird shit going on. But again, because it was underwritten,
- 22:55Speaker 1: that wasn't extremely clear, and it also was under utilized.
- 23:00Speaker 1: A lot of their plot points were heavily underutilized, and
- 23:05Speaker 1: if they had built them up more, it would have
- 23:07Speaker 1: been more interesting. Because biker gang on the run from
- 23:10Speaker 1: something they don't realize is in their midst, or like
- 23:14Speaker 1: you know, trying to get away from things that they're
- 23:16Speaker 1: just brushing off as normal parts of living in where
- 23:19Speaker 1: they are. That's interesting. So yeah, stuff did happen. It
- 23:23Speaker 1: was just underdeveloped.
- 23:26Speaker 3: I guess agree to disagree because I guess I'm not
- 23:30Speaker 3: saying nothing happened in the sense of literally nothing happened,
- 23:32Speaker 3: but when I when I'm watching a movie and I
- 23:35Speaker 3: can't I literally had no idea what was happening, Like
- 23:38Speaker 3: I got it. Okay, they did something to Helen, yep,
- 23:42Speaker 3: that caused them to leave, But everything after that just
- 23:44Speaker 3: seemed to be like them bumbling around. I did not
- 23:47Speaker 3: get that they were trying to run from.
- 23:49Speaker 1: It at all, because the first thing they say, oh,
- 23:50Speaker 1: it must have been a coyote, let's go, And then
- 23:53Speaker 1: the second time they're like, well, they didn't trip into
- 23:55Speaker 1: the fire sober, so they're arguing about whether or not
- 23:58Speaker 1: the second guy.
- 23:59Speaker 3: Well, I guess the problem is is no one seems
- 24:02Speaker 3: concerned about anything because they're all drunk except for to Row.
- 24:06Speaker 3: And at one point Adam's like, you know, you're worrying
- 24:09Speaker 3: everybody with all this bullshit, And I'm like, are they worried?
- 24:12Speaker 3: Because I don't get a sense of I get more
- 24:14Speaker 3: of a sense of annoyance from the rest of the
- 24:16Speaker 3: gang than anything. Yeah.
- 24:18Speaker 1: And Adam, on the other hand, is trying to keep
- 24:20Speaker 1: everybody chill because he's worried about his girlfriend. But the
- 24:25Speaker 1: way they did it just like he didn't give a
- 24:27Speaker 1: shit when in reality, like, if you really look at
- 24:30Speaker 1: what he's doing, he's scared. He doesn't know either, and
- 24:34Speaker 1: he doesn't like that somebody's making everybody else scared, and
- 24:37Speaker 1: he's trying to put on a brave face for everybody
- 24:41Speaker 1: else because he doesn't know what the fuck's happening? Well,
- 24:43Speaker 1: but underdeveloped character, underutilized scenes, and underutilized storyline. It makes
- 24:50Speaker 1: it hard to really get into that.
- 24:53Speaker 3: Well, and the fact that no one could act their
- 24:56Speaker 3: way out of a fucking paper bag. I mean, geez uh.
- 25:00Speaker 1: The only one who didn't did was the girlfriend. She
- 25:03Speaker 1: she actually was.
- 25:04Speaker 3: Fine, which girlfriend, Helen?
- 25:06Speaker 1: Yeah, Helen, Okay, she was doing fine.
- 25:08Speaker 3: But for the most part, all the guys, their acting
- 25:11Speaker 3: was more wooden than fucking Captain Redbeard's peg leg if
- 25:14Speaker 3: he had one, Like, I mean, good lord. They were
- 25:17Speaker 3: all just so nonchalant about everything, getting drunk half the time,
- 25:21Speaker 3: and I was like, I don't I don't know what's
- 25:22Speaker 3: going on here. This just seems like a movie about
- 25:26Speaker 3: motorcycle gang. It's like, there's no were wolves on wheels.
- 25:28Speaker 3: There was were wolf on wheels. Yeah, there was one
- 25:32Speaker 3: were wolf on a bike at towards the end of
- 25:35Speaker 3: the movie, and it was pitch black and couldn't see shit.
- 25:38Speaker 3: Ten out of ten.
- 25:39Speaker 1: Yeah, you did have to wait the whole movie to
- 25:40Speaker 1: get to where the were wolves were on the bike.
- 25:43Speaker 3: There was only one on a bike.
- 25:45Speaker 1: No, I'm saying because of how the are we spoiling
- 25:47Speaker 1: the ending. Yeah, we always spoil every because when they
- 25:50Speaker 1: went to go fuck up the monks, they all got
- 25:52Speaker 1: changed into were wolves. You just never saw it. They're
- 25:55Speaker 1: literally like, we are one. They took thecri, the sacrament,
- 25:59Speaker 1: so to speak. Yeah, so it is implied at the
- 26:01Speaker 1: end they're all fucking werewolves. Now yeah, no, I guess,
- 26:05Speaker 1: which was like, oh shit, love that, except it's underdeveloped.
- 26:10Speaker 3: I'm just saying we have like in werewolf makeup, we
- 26:13Speaker 3: got one. Yeah, yeah, sure there was werewolves on wheels
- 26:16Speaker 3: in the sense of not transformed. Have I even said
- 26:21Speaker 3: my overall thoughts yet?
- 26:22Speaker 1: I thought you were doing that? Have you not been
- 26:24Speaker 1: doing that?
- 26:24Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know.
- 26:26Speaker 1: Well, I think that what they did it. You could
- 26:32Speaker 1: literally rewrite this without actually changing the plot points correct
- 26:37Speaker 1: and make just a just a sick, fucking werewolf movie.
- 26:40Speaker 1: And part of me is really tempted to do that
- 26:42Speaker 1: for no reason.
- 26:44Speaker 3: No, what do you mean, for no reason? For to
- 26:46Speaker 3: live up to the title. If you're gonna have a
- 26:48Speaker 3: movie that's called were Wolves on Wheels? Give me were
- 26:51Speaker 3: Wolves on Wheels?
- 26:52Speaker 1: Don't WANs the right to this. I need to talk
- 26:54Speaker 1: to them so I can do a script.
- 26:58Speaker 3: It's just you're not even living up to the name
- 27:00Speaker 3: of your own movie. That's crazy to me. Like, and
- 27:04Speaker 3: the poster too. The poster of the movie is literally
- 27:08Speaker 3: the last few minutes of the film. There's like a
- 27:10Speaker 3: snake wrapped around I mean, I wasn't expecting the werewolf
- 27:13Speaker 3: have a snake wrapped around him or her or whatever,
- 27:16Speaker 3: But like the poster, I'm like, Yo, this is a
- 27:18Speaker 3: can't miss. How is this? How did you fuck this up?
- 27:22Speaker 1: I actually have like a lot of problems with that poster. One.
- 27:25Speaker 1: There's no way she's hanging that way too. Yeah, she's
- 27:29Speaker 1: got her if you zoom in on the skull, she's
- 27:33Speaker 1: got her little finger stuck up through the soft palate
- 27:37Speaker 1: through this.
- 27:38Speaker 3: Thing's no broad Stoke Stokes Stoker broad stroke. So if
- 27:42Speaker 3: you just look at it, I'm saying, like, when you
- 27:43Speaker 3: look at it, you're like werewolf on wheel, snake fucking
- 27:46Speaker 3: big cross.
- 27:48Speaker 1: Yeah, he has no neck. I couldn't get over this.
- 27:51Speaker 1: It's like, I guarantee you sorry. But I was like, yeah,
- 27:54Speaker 1: this poster's really cool. But it's like AI were like, oh,
- 27:57Speaker 1: this is great, and then you zoom in on shit,
- 28:00Speaker 1: and then it's like this guarantee you. They drew this
- 28:03Speaker 1: whole motorcycle and guy in the background drew her first,
- 28:06Speaker 1: drew him, realized they didn't have enough headspace between his
- 28:09Speaker 1: head and her hair, so they just didn't fucking draw
- 28:13Speaker 1: his neck in.
- 28:13Speaker 3: Let me see which one you're looking at, because mine
- 28:16Speaker 3: might be different. Oh no, mine's just blue.
- 28:19Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, yeah, because like oh, and I think it's hilarious.
- 28:23Speaker 1: This is the end of the movie right here.
- 28:24Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 28:25Speaker 1: Yeah, but this poster is very silly, like from a distance,
- 28:29Speaker 1: cool close up.
- 28:31Speaker 3: So I guess I don't even know if I've said
- 28:33Speaker 3: my overall thoughts. My overall thoughts on this movie is
- 28:36Speaker 3: is what what happened? I guess it's not even a thought,
- 28:40Speaker 3: it's a question. I don't know what happened with this movie.
- 28:43Speaker 3: It had such potential. The title alone drew me in.
- 28:46Speaker 3: The poster was another thing that drew me in, and
- 28:49Speaker 3: then this is what we got. It blows my mind
- 28:52Speaker 3: that they messed this up so bad. And I agree
- 28:54Speaker 3: with you for absolutely no reason at all other than
- 28:57Speaker 3: to just live up to the name of the movie.
- 28:59Speaker 3: I want to add this to the list of screenplays
- 29:02Speaker 3: that I want to tackle at some point. And actually
- 29:04Speaker 3: do wear wolves on wheels, because you're right, the base
- 29:07Speaker 3: idea fantastic. Everything up to the monastery, although I wasn't
- 29:12Speaker 3: in love with it, I was like, Okay, we're getting somewhere.
- 29:14Speaker 3: And then the second they rescued Helen from monks who
- 29:18Speaker 3: were apparently Satanists, which I'm pretty sure that's a conflict
- 29:21Speaker 3: of interests, but I don't know. I don't know. I
- 29:24Speaker 3: was like, this is great, and then that's where you
- 29:26Speaker 3: need to You do the same basically the same intro,
- 29:30Speaker 3: except maybe make the bikers a little more likable. Sure
- 29:33Speaker 3: they can be rough and tumbled, but not you know,
- 29:35Speaker 3: being a dick. Also, the fact that Mouse described what
- 29:39Speaker 3: I'm assuming is his girlfriend or wife as mama. I
- 29:43Speaker 3: get it's you said it's a seventies colloquial term. Let's
- 29:46Speaker 3: pick a different one. Because when you introduce her as
- 29:48Speaker 3: mama and then you stick your face and her breasts,
- 29:51Speaker 3: I'm thinking this, we're doing incests now. So that was
- 29:54Speaker 3: also very strange. Don't know what started that tangent, but
- 29:57Speaker 3: I wanted to get it out before I forgot it.
- 29:59Speaker 3: But you literally go to the monastery and then just
- 30:03Speaker 3: you take instead of taking a left, you take a right,
- 30:05Speaker 3: and you go down that path and develop it more
- 30:08Speaker 3: and you've got one hell of a story. But instead
- 30:10Speaker 3: you get thirteen motorcycle montages, a lot of a lot
- 30:16Speaker 3: of just sexual tension between all the men quite frankly,
- 30:21Speaker 3: like I told you, and then completely like I don't
- 30:23Speaker 3: mean this in a derogatory way at all, but it
- 30:25Speaker 3: was like the gayest group of guys I've ever seen,
- 30:29Speaker 3: and like I said, not in a bad way. It's like,
- 30:31Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure we're all gay here that.
- 30:33Speaker 1: One of my notes is actually there are lots of
- 30:36Speaker 1: men caressing each other, yeah, especially when no they're like
- 30:39Speaker 1: rolling and holding each other. And then one of the
- 30:42Speaker 1: I think one of the funnier scenes was one of
- 30:45Speaker 1: the guys was laying there kind of drunk and the
- 30:47Speaker 1: one sitting next to him, he's like, he says something,
- 30:51Speaker 1: do you love me? Like, yeah, I love you, and
- 30:52Speaker 1: then he pretends to climb on top of him and
- 30:55Speaker 1: try to make out with him, like he's joking around
- 30:57Speaker 1: and stuff, and I was like, this would have been
- 30:59Speaker 1: better if they actually it's actually make out, But you know,
- 31:02Speaker 1: it's fine.
- 31:03Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, there was more sexual sexual frustration and
- 31:06Speaker 3: tension there than that, you know.
- 31:07Speaker 1: There's more positive masculinity in that moment.
- 31:10Speaker 3: I mean it is, it is about positive masculinity, which
- 31:13Speaker 3: is interesting because you know, the seventies was full of
- 31:16Speaker 3: a lot of very many things, so to have such
- 31:19Speaker 3: a kind of not gender fluidity, But like what am
- 31:23Speaker 3: I trying to say here, like in a world where
- 31:26Speaker 3: with sexuality, I guess.
- 31:28Speaker 1: No, it's not even sexual. It's not even sexual in nature.
- 31:31Speaker 1: The fact that the because it's so non sexual. You've
- 31:35Speaker 1: got these men who are trying to act tough, trying
- 31:38Speaker 1: to be tough, but when it's just them, they're comfortable
- 31:42Speaker 1: because they're they're they're family, they're comfortable being close to
- 31:45Speaker 1: each other. They're comfortable being putting hands on each other,
- 31:48Speaker 1: like wrestling around, and it's all non sexual. So it's like, yeah,
- 31:54Speaker 1: it was just like, wow, they are really rolling around
- 31:57Speaker 1: with each other. But really, if you look at it,
- 31:59Speaker 1: it is positive in that aspect because they're just being
- 32:05Speaker 1: close and they're being friends like and that doesn't really
- 32:09Speaker 1: get portrayed that often because guys keep a good foot
- 32:13Speaker 1: distance between each other at all times.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Oh man, you probably don't know this, you're not a guy.
- 32:17Speaker 3: But when guys went to the movies in like the
- 32:19Speaker 3: early two thousands, back when you could pick your seats,
- 32:21Speaker 3: you know, and they didn't have the app. There was
- 32:23Speaker 3: always that one seat buffer to make sure everyone in
- 32:25Speaker 3: the theater knew that we weren't gay. Like that was
- 32:27Speaker 3: a thing we did.
- 32:29Speaker 1: That's so stupid.
- 32:30Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, I mean that's the thing that me and
- 32:32Speaker 3: all my friends did. I don't know what that says
- 32:34Speaker 3: about me or if that was a normal thing, but
- 32:36Speaker 3: like it was always that one Like if me and
- 32:38Speaker 3: Spencer went to the movies back when we worked at
- 32:40Speaker 3: the theater, one seat buffer, you know, like we're not together.
- 32:44Speaker 3: I don't know if that was normal, but that is
- 32:45Speaker 3: something that was in my circles that was considered normal.
- 32:49Speaker 1: Oh, which is funny because on the flip side, nowadays,
- 32:51Speaker 1: Heather and I just assume that other people assume that
- 32:54Speaker 1: we're married to each other when we go out, because
- 32:56Speaker 1: we do look like we're married to each other and
- 32:58Speaker 1: we're both wearing wedding rings.
- 33:00Speaker 3: Yeah, and now I couldn't give a shit less, Like, yeah,
- 33:02Speaker 3: now you don't care. It doesn't make sense to set
- 33:04Speaker 3: a fucking I want to talk to you and about
- 33:06Speaker 3: the movie.
- 33:07Speaker 1: You want to whisper in your ear.
- 33:08Speaker 3: Yeah, I want to whispered, sweet, nothing's in your ear?
- 33:10Speaker 3: How am I supposed to do that? A seed over?
- 33:11Speaker 3: So yeah, that was That's how like rooted in like homophobia.
- 33:15Speaker 3: We were in the early two thousands. Oh, just a society.
- 33:18Speaker 3: But for this movie to be so like like I said,
- 33:22Speaker 3: like pro just whatever men.
- 33:24Speaker 1: Yeah, like they're toxic in the way that they treat
- 33:26Speaker 1: other people and the way they have to the biker code,
- 33:28Speaker 1: but like they still they're still weirdly affectionate with each other.
- 33:32Speaker 1: And I say weirdly as in it's weird to see
- 33:35Speaker 1: because you don't.
- 33:36Speaker 3: Especially from the seventies. It's not. It's very very different
- 33:39Speaker 3: from what's normally happening in the seventies. The seventies were
- 33:42Speaker 3: full of you know, exploitation films and grind house films,
- 33:46Speaker 3: and I'd say it has slight exploitation towards webmen because
- 33:49Speaker 3: there are a lot of women just ripping their tops
- 33:51Speaker 3: off for no reason.
- 33:52Speaker 1: Yes, that's actually one of my notes.
- 33:53Speaker 3: Oh perfect, good, let's go right, let's let's segue into that.
- 33:56Speaker 1: Then I want to make a full nude movie, not
- 33:59Speaker 1: like porn where it's a normal film plot, everyone is
- 34:03Speaker 1: just nude. So maybe people will get desensitized to nudity
- 34:07Speaker 1: because between this and the nudity and that other movie
- 34:11Speaker 1: that I oh, I forgot to talk about it figured
- 34:13Speaker 1: you were going to review it and whatnot.
- 34:14Speaker 3: I am going to review it.
- 34:16Speaker 1: But the whole like, let's show a shot of her
- 34:19Speaker 1: ass for what cause she's got an ass. Let's show
- 34:23Speaker 1: her tits? Why cause she's got tits? Okay, Jesus.
- 34:27Speaker 3: There was so many shots of butts and I'm like, Okay,
- 34:31Speaker 3: it's a great looking butt whatever, but like we just
- 34:34Speaker 3: just don't need to see it twenty seven times.
- 34:36Speaker 1: Yeah, And so just like between that and this, I
- 34:40Speaker 1: was just like, God, I am just tired of nudity
- 34:43Speaker 1: for the sake of nudity. And I'm just like, I'm
- 34:45Speaker 1: gonna make an all nude film where the plot just
- 34:48Speaker 1: keeps like a normal film plot. Everyone just they're just
- 34:50Speaker 1: are no clothes. Maybe by the end everyone will get
- 34:53Speaker 1: over it because they're just bodies. Yeah, Like I told you,
- 34:59Speaker 1: I've told you many time. You take one life drawing
- 35:01Speaker 1: class and nudity ceases to have the same meaning to you.
- 35:06Speaker 1: You go to one bath house and you're like, uh, yeah,
- 35:09Speaker 1: sometimes I'm new too. Whatever. Yeah, uh, it means nothing,
- 35:14Speaker 1: but that was one of my notes for that. I
- 35:18Speaker 1: also think the wedding dress thing was really underappreciated. Where
- 35:23Speaker 1: she gets up, where the girlfriend gets up Ellen. Yes,
- 35:27Speaker 1: Helen gets up from where they're all unconscious.
- 35:30Speaker 3: M yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah.
- 35:31Speaker 1: Also side note, wild move to just be eaten and
- 35:33Speaker 1: drinking stuff. Random monks just show up and hand you
- 35:36Speaker 1: hooded monks. Yeah, they're just like, here's some bread and
- 35:38Speaker 1: here's some wine. No, yeah, weird move on their part.
- 35:43Speaker 1: Very well, they weren't the brightest. But anyway, when Helen
- 35:46Speaker 1: gets up and starts running, and then it cuts back
- 35:49Speaker 1: to the monks and it cuts back and she's running
- 35:51Speaker 1: in a wedding dress with the crowd flowers around her head,
- 35:54Speaker 1: and this idea that she's already starting this transformation, she's
- 35:58Speaker 1: already locked in, she's ready to be the of Satan.
- 36:00Speaker 1: I was like, that's actually really cool. And then she
- 36:03Speaker 1: was nude and I was like, okay.
- 36:05Speaker 3: Well yeah, I was like, oh, this is a cool shot.
- 36:07Speaker 3: And then all of a sudden, like I just just
- 36:10Speaker 3: up and down. I'm like, she's topless it yeah, okay,
- 36:12Speaker 3: no top oh it's sheer and she has no underwear on. Okay,
- 36:16Speaker 3: now we're just sexualizing this woman at this.
- 36:17Speaker 1: Point, which is the seventies.
- 36:19Speaker 3: So well, yeah, and you know, the bras. I don't
- 36:22Speaker 3: think we're invented until you know, at least the nineties,
- 36:24Speaker 3: because seventies and eighties or no one to wear in bras.
- 36:26Speaker 1: I mean, if you saw the bras in the fifties
- 36:28Speaker 1: and sixties, you'd know why.
- 36:29Speaker 3: Yeah. I mean I wouldn't want to wear those either.
- 36:31Speaker 1: I mean they look pretty, it look terrible, But yeah,
- 36:34Speaker 1: so I did think that was really cool. I just
- 36:37Speaker 1: wish they had done a little bit more with that,
- 36:40Speaker 1: like dragged, pulled that further into the ritual part and
- 36:43Speaker 1: the fact that she ends up backing it again, like
- 36:47Speaker 1: she is the icon for the ritual that they're being
- 36:50Speaker 1: forced into. That was I really enjoyed that, like her
- 36:54Speaker 1: being the actual essentially a statue at that point.
- 37:00Speaker 3: Yeah, there were definitely some cool shots in this movie
- 37:02Speaker 3: for sure.
- 37:03Speaker 1: Yeah. The charcoal face thing was so bizarre though.
- 37:05Speaker 3: Yeah. I didn't get that. I was is this, I
- 37:08Speaker 3: thought that was the werewolf makeup and was like, uh, okay, it.
- 37:13Speaker 1: Looks like they just smeared gray soot over their face
- 37:17Speaker 1: and it just looked really patchy and not well done,
- 37:19Speaker 1: and that was bothering.
- 37:20Speaker 3: Well, and that's the thing at the end of the
- 37:21Speaker 3: movie when they're all sitting around and the camera goes
- 37:24Speaker 3: to each one of them and then they look at
- 37:25Speaker 3: the camera like an eighties fucking sitcom. H they all
- 37:30Speaker 3: had something on their face and like these things. I
- 37:31Speaker 3: was like, is this indicating that they're werewolves? Is that
- 37:34Speaker 3: what this is? Because they don't make it very clear. Yeah,
- 37:38Speaker 3: But then they also attack the werewolves that that turn,
- 37:42Speaker 3: So I'm like, is this werewolf on werewolf violins? What
- 37:45Speaker 3: the fuck is happening here?
- 37:46Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 37:46Speaker 1: What I think is what happened.
- 37:48Speaker 3: Is it's a lot of speculation.
- 37:50Speaker 1: From the Helen bites Adam. Yeah, I know, I know,
- 37:55Speaker 1: so I think she made him a werewolf, but he
- 37:58Speaker 1: was not aware of that.
- 38:01Speaker 3: He was an unaware wolf pretty much.
- 38:04Speaker 1: And I mean the reveal that he is a werewolf too,
- 38:09Speaker 1: because you kind of figure she is, but the reveal
- 38:11Speaker 1: that he is too, I was like, oh shit, they're
- 38:13Speaker 1: both were wolves. Okay, cool, back.
- 38:15Speaker 3: Up, back up the reveal that he what I got
- 38:19Speaker 3: immediate Well, I guess if Yeah, I guess is you
- 38:22Speaker 3: at this point you don't. I was gonna say, if
- 38:24Speaker 3: if he if I knew he was because Helen bit him,
- 38:27Speaker 3: then I guess she would have to be. But that
- 38:29Speaker 3: was so much more like vampiric because of the two bites.
- 38:32Speaker 1: So the way the bite was done was very confused.
- 38:34Speaker 3: Also, so what the fuck does devil worship have to
- 38:36Speaker 3: do with were wolves? That is?
- 38:37Speaker 5: That is?
- 38:38Speaker 1: That was one of the stronger issues for me. I
- 38:40Speaker 1: think if they had kind of made up a god
- 38:42Speaker 1: or something.
- 38:43Speaker 3: I mean, I could be wrong. Maybe there's some I know,
- 38:48Speaker 3: the pentagon. They had a pentagram, right, Yeah.
- 38:50Speaker 1: That's more related to witchcraft, less specifically.
- 38:53Speaker 3: The pentagram on the there's the pentagram in the original
- 38:55Speaker 3: wolf Man and then cursed this member that goes on
- 38:58Speaker 3: the hand. So I was like, okay, maybe we're to
- 39:00Speaker 3: do something with that. But it was something about being
- 39:02Speaker 3: the bride of Satan. I'm like, what is being the
- 39:04Speaker 3: bride of Satan have to do with licanthropy?
- 39:06Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. The tie like, there may
- 39:09Speaker 1: be like a road there, but I don't think it's
- 39:11Speaker 1: as close as that made it.
- 39:12Speaker 3: It's a but it's a bumpy road. Down in the
- 39:14Speaker 3: forest that I don't I don't really want to take
- 39:15Speaker 3: my car down.
- 39:16Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to take some forks to get there,
- 39:19Speaker 1: but you know, I also made a note that the
- 39:22Speaker 1: ritual scene sounds like the middle part of the song,
- 39:25Speaker 1: the end by the doors, where it kind of sounds
- 39:29Speaker 1: like they're just kind of chilling into the instruments. And
- 39:33Speaker 1: I'll play it for you later and you'd be like, yeah,
- 39:34Speaker 1: that's like that, because and if you've heard the song,
- 39:37Speaker 1: you know what I'm talking about.
- 39:38Speaker 3: There you go.
- 39:40Speaker 1: I once again, I actually wrote two notes about the
- 39:42Speaker 1: wasted potential of this, so I said I could write
- 39:44Speaker 1: this better, and I said I can't get over the
- 39:46Speaker 1: wasted potential. And yeah. Then I also thought it was
- 39:51Speaker 1: really funny that they poked him to death with fire.
- 39:53Speaker 1: I mean, he did actually get up right off and
- 39:55Speaker 1: explode somehow, but the fact that they were all just
- 39:59Speaker 1: kind of lightly jabbed him with fire was fucking hilarious.
- 40:02Speaker 3: Yeah, and then he did get lit on fire.
- 40:04Speaker 1: Yeah, but in this case, the bike crashed over here
- 40:08Speaker 1: and then over here he kind of exploded, and I
- 40:12Speaker 1: thought that was freaking hilarious. But like I said, there's
- 40:16Speaker 1: so much of this where plot wise, you could keep
- 40:18Speaker 1: these plot part plot beats and just flesh them out
- 40:23Speaker 1: and flesh the characters out and just have an absolutely
- 40:26Speaker 1: sick werewolf movie. They just didn't do that.
- 40:29Speaker 3: Did you notice the part so Helen and Mouse get
- 40:34Speaker 3: attacked first, and they die and they bury him in
- 40:36Speaker 3: the sand that Helen.
- 40:38Speaker 1: Helen's the main chick, right.
- 40:40Speaker 3: Surely Shirley and Mouse. And then when yeah, when they're
- 40:45Speaker 3: getting attacked, I thought I saw like foreshadows. I thought
- 40:49Speaker 3: there was two were wolves or something. I don't know.
- 40:52Speaker 3: But she gets the throat repped and throws her head
- 40:54Speaker 3: back and blood goes everywhere. Did you notice when later
- 40:58Speaker 3: in the movie someone else got their throat red, they
- 41:00Speaker 3: threw Shirley in there again. I'm like, guys, what did
- 41:05Speaker 3: they just reuse a shot? It was so strange.
- 41:08Speaker 1: I was more distracted by the fact when the hand
- 41:10Speaker 1: comes around that guy to rip his throat out, you
- 41:13Speaker 1: could see the wrinkling of the fabric for the arm,
- 41:16Speaker 1: and it was just a full on like puppet hand situation.
- 41:18Speaker 3: Like, yeah, it really did look like just an over
- 41:21Speaker 3: exaggerated puppet hand. It was huge.
- 41:24Speaker 1: The werewolf design was terrible.
- 41:27Speaker 3: See that's where I disagree. I I not all of it.
- 41:32Speaker 3: We're talking one. I like the fact that it's bipedal.
- 41:35Speaker 3: I like that. I like the face because it kind
- 41:38Speaker 3: of vibes like the original wolf Man. I like the
- 41:40Speaker 3: pointed ears. The hands and the feet though were just
- 41:43Speaker 3: very straight, they were very bulky.
- 41:45Speaker 1: They fell off with the design they'd filled a different design.
- 41:48Speaker 3: They felt like two different designs. But like the face itself,
- 41:50Speaker 3: I really did enjoy and I was like, man, it
- 41:52Speaker 3: would have been cool to see so much more of this.
- 41:55Speaker 3: Uh No, full Moon mentioned no silver bullets burning them.
- 42:00Speaker 3: I guess works because that's how Helen dies. And I
- 42:04Speaker 3: thought Adam died too because he got lit on fire,
- 42:06Speaker 3: but apparently he you know, stopped, dropped and rolled and
- 42:09Speaker 3: that worked, and then he got on a motorcycle to
- 42:11Speaker 3: literally jump off of a sand dune and explode, which
- 42:16Speaker 3: was which was pretty funny. Yeah it was, And at
- 42:19Speaker 3: the time I didn't know that it was Helen. But
- 42:21Speaker 3: when she just picks that guy up and he yeats
- 42:23Speaker 3: him into the fire, I cackled so loud. I don't
- 42:26Speaker 3: know if you heard that. No, yeah, she just picks
- 42:29Speaker 3: him up and it's clearly a dummy, and she just
- 42:31Speaker 3: yat I'm like, that's fucking great. Like there's a little
- 42:33Speaker 3: pocket to this movie where I'm like, that's hilarious, Like
- 42:36Speaker 3: this is great, But overall, I'm like, you're not utilizing.
- 42:40Speaker 3: Like it's like back and heavy with exposition. There's like
- 42:45Speaker 3: no build up to anything. And the longer the movie
- 42:48Speaker 3: goes on, the more they start talking about it, which
- 42:51Speaker 3: you think would make sense, but in this case, I'm like,
- 42:54Speaker 3: you haven't explained enough for me to keep up with
- 42:57Speaker 3: where we're at now.
- 42:58Speaker 1: It's like I don't need you to actually give me
- 43:00Speaker 1: every detail, but uh detail Again, I'm really only following
- 43:06Speaker 1: this as well as I am because I read that blurb.
- 43:09Speaker 3: Yeah, and I'm wonder so let me see if I
- 43:12Speaker 3: can get this straight right. We got most of the
- 43:14Speaker 3: plot points here. The gang gets lost, they come across
- 43:18Speaker 3: the monks who welcome them with food and wine. They
- 43:21Speaker 3: all get drugged. Right. The Satanic cult leader picks one.
- 43:26Speaker 3: He picks Helen, and you know that he takes the hair,
- 43:28Speaker 3: which clearly there was no hair in his hair. I
- 43:30Speaker 3: love that scene when the guy is like taking the
- 43:32Speaker 3: hair and doing this, I'm like, oh, good, look no
- 43:34Speaker 3: hair and he puts it in his little thing. So
- 43:38Speaker 3: I guess people, I've looked online and the Cold is
- 43:41Speaker 3: performing a black mass. Apparently that's what they were doing.
- 43:44Speaker 3: What is a black mass? I didn't have time to
- 43:46Speaker 3: look it up because we went so quickly into this episode,
- 43:49Speaker 3: Like what is It's like mass but black like.
- 43:53Speaker 1: But for Satan, which usually involves some sort of sacrifice
- 43:58Speaker 1: of some kind. So they're trying to sacrifice sacrificed a cat.
- 44:01Speaker 3: Oh god, I forgot about that.
- 44:03Speaker 1: Such a weird random thing.
- 44:04Speaker 3: Like, look, I'm not a huge fan of cats, but geez,
- 44:08Speaker 3: like he he he, I thought they killed a real
- 44:11Speaker 3: cat because he just cut him like in half and
- 44:13Speaker 3: that was blood going everywhere. So they interrupt this ceremony ritual,
- 44:20Speaker 3: but it's too late. She's been cursed. So that's that's
- 44:25Speaker 3: like the connection I'm not getting is like, so if
- 44:28Speaker 3: they were going to sacrifice her, she just would have
- 44:29Speaker 3: been dead.
- 44:31Speaker 1: No, they sacrificed the cat and then they were making
- 44:33Speaker 1: her into the bride.
- 44:35Speaker 3: Okay.
- 44:36Speaker 1: I think it's unclear whether or not they would have
- 44:38Speaker 1: ended up sacrificing her because they didn't have anything that
- 44:41Speaker 1: implied they were going to okay, or they were just
- 44:43Speaker 1: changing her because they bring her back later. They don't
- 44:46Speaker 1: sacrifice her then either she was just at the altar
- 44:49Speaker 1: to make the other guys change and then they fuck
- 44:52Speaker 1: off into this.
- 44:55Speaker 3: Yeah, which is strange. Oh no, no, no, that's vampires, so sorry, no.
- 45:00Speaker 1: But it is confusing that werewolf thing. They change literally
- 45:04Speaker 1: any given time. They're human for most of the night.
- 45:08Speaker 1: There's no confirmation whether or not it has anything to
- 45:11Speaker 1: do with the werewolf with the moon or if it's
- 45:15Speaker 1: just Bill I fell asleep, so now were wolf.
- 45:17Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like that's what I'm saying. It's so unclear.
- 45:19Speaker 3: There's not enough to connect the dots for me to
- 45:21Speaker 3: be like, this is exactly what happened, because it was
- 45:25Speaker 3: I had a hard time following along this plot. And
- 45:27Speaker 3: that's exactly why I went to two B so I
- 45:29Speaker 3: could read what they were saying, because I couldn't, like
- 45:32Speaker 3: if I it's this movie from seventy one and the
- 45:35Speaker 3: audio is not the crispest or the cleanest. So it's like,
- 45:38Speaker 3: that's why I need subtitles. And you know, I'm doing
- 45:41Speaker 3: my best, and like, Okay, they're just kind of sitting here.
- 45:43Speaker 3: They're kind of sitting there trou At one point is
- 45:47Speaker 3: sitting with his arms out wide, you know, like his
- 45:50Speaker 3: mother taught him how to read cards, and he read
- 45:52Speaker 3: cards in the beginning and said we're all doomed or whatever.
- 45:56Speaker 3: I don't it's just I'm just I just wanted to
- 45:59Speaker 3: like this movie, have fun with it, but it couldn't
- 46:01Speaker 3: even deliver on its own name. And I feel like
- 46:03Speaker 3: that's the biggest flaw with this movie. I almost wanted
- 46:06Speaker 3: to give it a bump up in the rating because
- 46:09Speaker 3: it gave us werewolf on you know, like a werewolf
- 46:11Speaker 3: on a motorcycle. But I'm like, no, that's base level.
- 46:14Speaker 3: I shouldn't be awarding points because it didn't for fifty
- 46:17Speaker 3: eight minutes and then it did. That doesn't make sense. Yeah,
- 46:20Speaker 3: did you go through all your notes? Okay, we find
- 46:26Speaker 3: something else to talk about, because I want to try
- 46:27Speaker 3: and fill like ten more minutes here. Oh that's right,
- 46:31Speaker 3: that's what I wanted to mention. We need to talk
- 46:33Speaker 3: about the desert scene where well, I mean sorry, sorry,
- 46:39Speaker 3: they're driving through you know, back road in the desert
- 46:43Speaker 3: and all of a sudden fog. Yeah, and then we
- 46:48Speaker 3: get to the end of that fog and there's a
- 46:51Speaker 3: random car and then they do this very weird shot
- 46:54Speaker 3: where the cameras at the back of the car and
- 46:58Speaker 3: they go in opposite directions, and I'm like, I don't
- 47:00Speaker 3: know what that was. And then all of a sudden,
- 47:02Speaker 3: all the bikers are just in the middle of the
- 47:04Speaker 3: sand dunes. Yeah, what happened there? I had to rewind
- 47:09Speaker 3: it because I was like, did I just fucking black out?
- 47:11Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 47:11Speaker 1: I looked down for that part, and then I was like, wait,
- 47:13Speaker 1: what all the girls are gone?
- 47:15Speaker 3: Yeah, oh, okay, yeah, and then they're just into sand
- 47:18Speaker 3: dunes and Adam's running around trying to figure out how
- 47:21Speaker 3: to get out of there. Okay, that didn't really make
- 47:24Speaker 3: any sort of sense at all, so I didn't. I didn't.
- 47:27Speaker 3: I didn't get that. And then they somehow get back
- 47:31Speaker 3: on the road, and that's when Tirou and Adam have
- 47:34Speaker 3: that moment where I got again random points where I
- 47:38Speaker 3: laughed or Toro's like, we can't solve all our problem
- 47:41Speaker 3: with our fists, and then Adam just fucking haymakers him
- 47:45Speaker 3: in the side of the face to the point where
- 47:46Speaker 3: he's bleeding out the side of his head, and I
- 47:48Speaker 3: was like, oh, he solved that problem.
- 47:50Speaker 1: And then they biked around some more and then they
- 47:52Speaker 1: had a fight, which I thought was funny. Is like, oh, guys,
- 47:55Speaker 1: bike intermission before we get to fisticuffs.
- 47:57Speaker 3: Yeah, well, one, where did you come from? You were
- 47:59Speaker 3: laying on the ground when everyone left, was like.
- 48:01Speaker 1: Where the hell did he just come from? Was he
- 48:03Speaker 1: waiting for them somehow?
- 48:04Speaker 3: Yeah? And he didn't. He come from like the opposite
- 48:06Speaker 3: direction and just like tackled him off of his Like
- 48:10Speaker 3: what is going on? But again, let's I want to
- 48:13Speaker 3: go back to the monks too, because like monks are
- 48:16Speaker 3: are they traditionally they don't have they don't have sex,
- 48:19Speaker 3: They're they're what is what is that called celibacy? They're
- 48:23Speaker 3: very pure, so they would not be Satanic worshippers, right, No.
- 48:27Speaker 1: These are Satanic monks, not just like but is that then?
- 48:30Speaker 2: I know?
- 48:30Speaker 1: But is that to use their wardrobe the exact same
- 48:33Speaker 1: wardrobe was a little confusing, however, not the first time
- 48:36Speaker 1: I've seen that. So because I have seen and Buffy
- 48:41Speaker 1: They're the first evil has a lot of monks that
- 48:45Speaker 1: fight on it.
- 48:46Speaker 3: I guess these are just evil monks, Like do those
- 48:49Speaker 3: exist in movies and movies? So yeah, it's like I
- 48:53Speaker 3: didn't know there were satanic monks. I don't really know
- 48:55Speaker 3: how this curse works. Why were these bikers chosen? Was
- 48:59Speaker 3: it just random chance? You know, we see anyone else
- 49:04Speaker 3: can be infected. We didn't even get a freaking transfer. Well,
- 49:07Speaker 3: we got kind of a transformation, you know. Adam falls
- 49:10Speaker 3: over and then just like pops up as full werewolves. Yeah.
- 49:15Speaker 3: So when you don't have any rules, you don't really
- 49:19Speaker 3: necessarily have any stakes. You're not fleshing out these characters
- 49:24Speaker 3: enough for me to care about them, because every time
- 49:25Speaker 3: they interact with someone outside of the group, they're just
- 49:27Speaker 3: complete assholes to them. So it's like, why do I
- 49:31Speaker 3: like these people? I'm not really rooting for anybody except
- 49:34Speaker 3: for maybe Helen because I feel bad for her because
- 49:37Speaker 3: she was the one that got chosen by these monks
- 49:39Speaker 3: to be the bride of Satan, so I guess I'm
- 49:41Speaker 3: rooting for her. But then she just dies at the end.
- 49:44Speaker 3: So it's like, well, there goes my favorite character, yep,
- 49:46Speaker 3: snuffing her out right at the end.
- 49:49Speaker 1: An doesn't die, she's just at the altar and then
- 49:51Speaker 1: they change and then they're gone. She's just kind of
- 49:53Speaker 1: standing there. She's kind of not dead so much as
- 49:56Speaker 1: she is not home.
- 49:57Speaker 3: Any did I miss something then, because both of them
- 50:00Speaker 3: got lit on fire.
- 50:01Speaker 1: She was, Yeah, she was in a wedding dress. At
- 50:06Speaker 1: the end of the movie, she was back in her
- 50:07Speaker 1: wedding dress, like standing at the altar or overlooking them
- 50:10Speaker 1: as they got changed and kind of like the lights
- 50:13Speaker 1: were on. But nobody's home.
- 50:14Speaker 3: Okay, I guess they rolled around. I mean they were
- 50:16Speaker 3: in sand, so I guess they rolled around in the sand,
- 50:18Speaker 3: and I just I just missed that. But I mean,
- 50:20Speaker 3: this movie is an hour and twenty minutes, right, you
- 50:25Speaker 3: get the first glimpse of any sort of mon start
- 50:30Speaker 3: like thirty eight minutes in, and then you don't get
- 50:32Speaker 3: any ware wolf until about fifty eight minutes in, and
- 50:37Speaker 3: then you get the last five minutes of kind of
- 50:40Speaker 3: action packed. You know, I guess action, like the best
- 50:45Speaker 3: action of the movie. I don't know. It is such
- 50:47Speaker 3: a strange. It is such a strange movie. It's one
- 50:50Speaker 3: of those movies. It's like, it's all the wearof movies
- 50:53Speaker 3: this month have been highly rated by everybody, and this
- 50:56Speaker 3: is going to drag the entire month down with how
- 50:58Speaker 3: poorly rated it is by us, and then upsets me
- 51:01Speaker 3: because we were doing great with Wearwolf month. We were
- 51:04Speaker 3: coming off the kind of the low of Kai June
- 51:07Speaker 3: because it just got worse with every movie we did,
- 51:09Speaker 3: and this movie has been a pretty ear This month
- 51:11Speaker 3: has been pretty strong, and then were Wolves on Wheels
- 51:14Speaker 3: had to come out and just do this. So yeah,
- 51:18Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't really have much else to
- 51:19Speaker 3: say on this. This is gonna be a very short
- 51:21Speaker 3: episode and that's okay. I know.
- 51:23Speaker 1: I just was a short movie. It was an underdeveloped plot.
- 51:27Speaker 1: Sometimes there's not as much to say. And it's also
- 51:29Speaker 1: okay that it's not keeping up with the rest of
- 51:31Speaker 1: the films, because the reality is not every film's a winner,
- 51:35Speaker 1: and you can't always have all the winners because who's
- 51:39Speaker 1: gonna talk about the ones that you should not watch?
- 51:42Speaker 3: That's true again, I just feel bad that people have
- 51:45Speaker 3: most likely watched this. I mean, hey, if you happen
- 51:47Speaker 3: to like this movie, that you know, that makes me happy.
- 51:50Speaker 3: There is obviously an appeal for this movie because it's
- 51:53Speaker 3: got like a two seven like it doesn't have. Yes,
- 51:55Speaker 3: it's not like a terrible rating. It's just mismarketed in
- 51:59Speaker 3: the way that they are. The name the poster is.
- 52:03Speaker 3: It's not what you get you get motorcycle montages like
- 52:07Speaker 3: I did like the beginning montage that was really cool,
- 52:10Speaker 3: like they were doing tricks and standing up and I
- 52:12Speaker 3: was like, oh, this is fun. Okay. It kind of
- 52:14Speaker 3: established them, establishes them right off the bat as just
- 52:17Speaker 3: this rogue, fucking people. They gave me like nomadic vibes,
- 52:21Speaker 3: like they were just out there living their best life,
- 52:23Speaker 3: going to bars, getting drunk whatever. So I really did
- 52:26Speaker 3: like that opening. It was very it was fun. Yeah,
- 52:28Speaker 3: and then you know, you know, ten twelve montages later
- 52:31Speaker 3: of them riding around with backing music. I'm like, all right,
- 52:34Speaker 3: this just feels like an advertisement for Harley Davidson at
- 52:37Speaker 3: this point. So I mean, yeah, and it I try
- 52:40Speaker 3: to find the good and everything, and I know I've
- 52:42Speaker 3: said this is one of the worst movies I've seen
- 52:44Speaker 3: in quite some time, and it is true. Unfortunately, there's
- 52:47Speaker 3: it's so disconnected. It does not have enough built in lore,
- 52:51Speaker 3: and mainly I think if it wasn't marketed as a well,
- 52:54Speaker 3: I mean, Werewold's in it, but I'm saying if it wasn't,
- 52:58Speaker 3: I don't know. You get an expectation in your head
- 53:00Speaker 3: when you see Werewolf in the title not even that, like, like,
- 53:03Speaker 3: howel there's no it's no werewolf in the title, but
- 53:05Speaker 3: you know it's a werewolf movie.
- 53:07Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 53:07Speaker 3: When you have werewolf in the title, you get a
- 53:09Speaker 3: certain specific idea in your head of things that should
- 53:12Speaker 3: be happening. None of those things are happening. So the
- 53:15Speaker 3: movie kind of shot itself in the foot because of
- 53:19Speaker 3: how it is presented to you, and then you go
- 53:21Speaker 3: watch it and you're like, this isn't even a werewolf movie. Yeah,
- 53:25Speaker 3: it's it's confusing, you know.
- 53:27Speaker 1: Yeah, the werewolf thing felt like almost an afterthought.
- 53:31Speaker 3: It feels like there's more werewolf stuff happening in Van
- 53:34Speaker 3: Helsing at this point. Oh there is, yeah, just like
- 53:38Speaker 3: so much. Yeah, there's google because there's yeah, because I
- 53:42Speaker 3: know there's vampires in that. There's werewolves obviously, even so
- 53:45Speaker 3: there's like there's like everything going on in there. They
- 53:47Speaker 3: mashed a whole bunch of ips together. So it's like,
- 53:49Speaker 3: it just seems weird that a movie with werewolf in
- 53:51Speaker 3: the name. I mean, they delivered on the wheels part
- 53:53Speaker 3: for sure. There's a lot of wheels, for sure, a
- 53:56Speaker 3: lot of wheel I mean, no denying that, but you're right,
- 54:00Speaker 3: I really just want to take it from the monastery
- 54:04Speaker 3: and roll with it from there, because then you can,
- 54:07Speaker 3: you know, you can do so much stuff with it. Also,
- 54:09Speaker 3: I do have a question, what was that scene when
- 54:11Speaker 3: they were walking into the monastery at the end and
- 54:14Speaker 3: seeing themselves in the hooded robes? Is that what was
- 54:17Speaker 3: going on?
- 54:17Speaker 1: I thought they were just looking at people other people.
- 54:22Speaker 3: Well, because they all walked in to do like they
- 54:24Speaker 3: all walked and raising something and then they saw someone
- 54:26Speaker 3: in a hooded robe, and I was like, are they
- 54:28Speaker 3: seeing themselves?
- 54:30Speaker 1: I thought that was them going under a trance like
- 54:32Speaker 1: they were going to attack, but they were already kind
- 54:34Speaker 1: of under the control. Monks really had activated that control.
- 54:39Speaker 3: And I mean, you have this whole brotherhood too that
- 54:43Speaker 3: are I guess already wear wolves. They don't tell you
- 54:47Speaker 3: if the monks are werewolves, but.
- 54:49Speaker 1: You can't think they are. No, No, I think they're
- 54:51Speaker 1: just servants of Satan.
- 54:53Speaker 3: I really got to find the Satan werewolf connection because
- 54:55Speaker 3: if it's there, cool, But you did not make it
- 54:58Speaker 3: very apparent. Yeah, this is just one of those movies
- 55:01Speaker 3: where I'm not the target audience, and beyond not the
- 55:04Speaker 3: target audience. It just didn't It didn't do anything for me.
- 55:08Speaker 3: So that's where I'm at with Werewolves on Wheels. Any
- 55:10Speaker 3: closing thoughts, feelings, opinions, noop, Yeah, I figured that so
- 55:18Speaker 3: my final thoughts here. Werewolves on movie is not a
- 55:21Speaker 3: good werewolf movie as it barely has any werewolf movie
- 55:25Speaker 3: at all going on. It feels exploitation ish and it's
- 55:30Speaker 3: built around, you know, like a very established horror like
- 55:34Speaker 3: horror monster, and they occasionally hint at the what the
- 55:39Speaker 3: movie could be throughout and before it ultimately just meanders
- 55:42Speaker 3: back to the bikers fucking around. The title itself is
- 55:47Speaker 3: great and the poster is great, but the film just
- 55:50Speaker 3: never lives up to any of that. So that's where
- 55:52Speaker 3: I'm at. Also, Derek asked me to play. He sent
- 55:56Speaker 3: me over his thoughts since he was supposed to be
- 55:58Speaker 3: on this episode, so he has a thirty second and
- 56:00Speaker 3: a little clip of him saying his feelings and then
- 56:02Speaker 3: we'll move on.
- 56:04Speaker 5: This movie gets one star for me, good sir, and
- 56:07Speaker 5: I'm gonna let you know that. I'm pretty sure this
- 56:10Speaker 5: was just an excuse to ride on motorcycles, but then
- 56:13Speaker 5: they decided they needed to add some sort of plot
- 56:16Speaker 5: to this motorcycle montage. There was one good scene, and
- 56:20Speaker 5: that is kind of sort of when they were transforming
- 56:24Speaker 5: the woman into that was that was kind of cool.
- 56:28Speaker 5: But outside of that, this movie is a giant waste
- 56:31Speaker 5: of time and it is a motorcycle montage end of story.
- 56:36Speaker 3: So there's steric thoughts on that. Let's move into the
- 56:39Speaker 3: final cut, all right, So taglines they met the Bride
- 56:44Speaker 3: of Satan. Life made them hard, The Devil made the monsters. Yeah, yeah,
- 56:50Speaker 3: life made them hard. Okay, devil made the monsters. If
- 56:54Speaker 3: you're Harry, you belong on a motorbike. This gang thought
- 56:57Speaker 3: it was tough till it found a new type of hell. Well,
- 57:00Speaker 3: the Bride of Satan Trivia. The bulk of the monks
- 57:03Speaker 3: were played by hippies from a local commune in California.
- 57:06Speaker 3: That that sounds right. The gas station attendant out in
- 57:09Speaker 3: the desert was a local guy who the filmmaker persuaded
- 57:11Speaker 3: to play a small part in the movie. Also tracks.
- 57:14Speaker 1: Yeah, no, as soon as he was talking, I thought,
- 57:16Speaker 1: he's really that dude. They must have gotten the guy
- 57:19Speaker 1: who owns the place.
- 57:20Speaker 3: Yeah. The majority of the film was shot in various
- 57:23Speaker 3: locations without permits. Makes sense. You're in the middle of
- 57:25Speaker 3: the Desert and Severn Severn Darden improvised a lot of
- 57:30Speaker 3: his black Mass incantation yeah that tracks, and the quote
- 57:34Speaker 3: we all know how we're gonna die, baby, We're gonna
- 57:37Speaker 3: crash and burn is used by Rob Zombie and his
- 57:39Speaker 3: six in his song sick bubblegum Wow. So there you go.
- 57:43Speaker 3: Apparently he's a fan of this movie. Goose. There was
- 57:46Speaker 3: nothing of value outside of like continuity stuff, and I
- 57:50Speaker 3: don't care. So this is where it gets. Rough rated
- 57:53Speaker 3: four point three out of ten on IMDb, which is
- 57:57Speaker 3: equivalent to a two point one point five out of five.
- 58:00Speaker 3: I have two point seven out of five on the letterbox,
- 58:03Speaker 3: has a nil rating on the Tomato Meter, and twenty
- 58:05Speaker 3: four percent audience score. What did you give this?
- 58:07Speaker 1: Two?
- 58:08Speaker 3: Wow? Two? Okay, I give it a one. Yeah, So
- 58:13Speaker 3: that is man, this might be lower than Monster Seafood Wars.
- 58:18Speaker 3: Let's see one point nine to seven. I believe that
- 58:22Speaker 3: is just about I think Monster Seafood Wars because I
- 58:25Speaker 3: forgot to put it back on here is a one
- 58:26Speaker 3: point nine to one, but I will get with the
- 58:28Speaker 3: corrections department on that. So one point nine six out
- 58:31Speaker 3: of five good times Similar movies according to IMDb, we
- 58:36Speaker 3: have Don't Torture a Duckling, The Trip, The Slayer, Black Sabbath,
- 58:40Speaker 3: and the Brotherhood of Satan. That feels the most most fitting.
- 58:43Speaker 3: Similar movies according to the letterbox, we have The Devil's Reign, Psychomania,
- 58:49Speaker 3: The Lords of Salem, Ghost Rider, Spirit of Revenge not
- 58:53Speaker 3: even the first one, and then House for a Thousand Corpses.
- 58:56Speaker 3: So that's where we're at. Funny reviews. No, oh, you
- 59:01Speaker 3: really didn't get any No, I.
- 59:03Speaker 1: Finished it like four minutes before we recorded this. What
- 59:05Speaker 1: did you want from me?
- 59:06Speaker 3: All right, here we go.
- 59:07Speaker 1: You're welcome.
- 59:08Speaker 3: Two stars from Cinema Void, Easy Rider now with seventy
- 59:13Speaker 3: percent more facial hair. Okay, that one didn't work for you?
- 59:18Speaker 3: Got it? Got it? Got it? Two stars? Can film
- 59:22Speaker 3: survive the test of time on nothing but an amazing title?
- 59:25Speaker 3: And poster realizes he's logging Werewolves on wheels? Yes, but
- 59:29Speaker 3: you gave it two stars. So there's that. Five stars
- 59:33Speaker 3: from William hell Fire. Oh geez, one foot in heaven
- 59:37Speaker 3: and the other in hell. Do a little LSD with
- 59:40Speaker 3: the Devil movie movie.
- 59:43Speaker 1: I need to see what his Can you please look
- 59:45Speaker 1: up his?
- 59:46Speaker 3: It was top four? Oh, let's do it? I thought, yep, yep,
- 59:48Speaker 3: all right, Top four. Okay, uh, children shouldn't play with
- 59:55Speaker 3: dead things?
- 59:56Speaker 1: Okay, mm hmm.
- 59:58Speaker 3: From nineteen seventy two Godzilla, the Original, were Wolves on
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: Wheels and the New York Ripper.
- 1:00:08Speaker 1: Oh boy, oh that's.
- 1:00:12Speaker 3: That's that's very special. But he at least gave back
- 1:00:15Speaker 3: Rooms four to half stars, so he's got subtaste. That's
- 1:00:19Speaker 3: oh man, I gotta follow him. That's that's some wild
- 1:00:22Speaker 3: shit where I think he might be the only person
- 1:00:25Speaker 3: with were wolves within damn it? Where wolves on Wheels
- 1:00:29Speaker 3: in in his top ten? I don't know, is there
- 1:00:32Speaker 3: is there a way you can like see no, damn it?
- 1:00:35Speaker 3: So I'm gonna follow him. It's so crazy because so
- 1:00:38Speaker 3: many people are giving this like four and a half stars,
- 1:00:41Speaker 3: five stars, but yeah, one star, wildly one star from
- 1:00:46Speaker 3: Jack wildly misleading. Where are the wolves get it?
- 1:00:50Speaker 1: Yes?
- 1:00:53Speaker 3: I guess that's all I have. I don't know how
- 1:00:55Speaker 3: many reading, well, I don't know. You didn't get any.
- 1:00:57Speaker 1: That doesn't mean you need to read twenty all right?
- 1:01:00Speaker 3: I find one more one star from Zebra. The most
- 1:01:02Speaker 3: terrifying thing about this movie is that every song is
- 1:01:05Speaker 3: wildly offbeat. Jesus, Oh God, this movie is just gonna
- 1:01:10Speaker 3: stay in my brain forever. So uh. If you enjoy
