  Welcome back to Skip or Scream, a scary movie
• 0:21
  recap podcast. We are your sisters and your hosts,
• 0:24
  Meggie and Cassie, and we're here to answer the
• 0:26
  question, is the scream worth the stream? And
• 0:30
  it is the big freaking 5 -0, baby. 50 goddamn
• 0:37
  episodes. Cass, who would have thought? Who would
• 0:40
  have thought? This is me asking in my Paul Rudd
• 0:43
  voice. Not me. Certainly not me. We just celebrated
• 0:50
  our birthday. Now we're on episode 50. We're
• 0:54
  just smashing all those milestones. We just want
• 0:58
  to find any excuse to party, really. We just
• 1:00
  want to party. Who doesn't? Honestly, who doesn't?
• 1:04
  And we also should party even more because we
• 1:07
  just won an award, the Sacred Crypt Awards. It
• 1:11
  is essentially awards that are given to indie
• 1:15
  creators in horror. And because of all of you
• 1:19
  lovely listeners, all of you absolute, I don't
• 1:23
  even know, bangers of people, we won the rising
• 1:27
  star award for essentially like someone who's
• 1:30
  new on the scene who's making really cool content
• 1:34
  and we couldn't have done it with all of you
• 1:35
  without all of you voting for us so thank you
• 1:38
  for voting for us for rising star we are so honored
• 1:42
  and appreciative that you thought of us and that
• 1:46
  you appreciate what we've been doing because
• 1:48
  you guys now that we've been doing this 50 times
• 1:54
  We can like straight up say like we just have
• 1:56
  a blast. We just have a blast doing this and
• 1:58
  I don't know about all of you, but I'm on a high
• 2:01
  because it's October. We're recording this in
• 2:04
  October 2nd. So it just turned October. I've
• 2:08
  been rewatching all my fave horror movies this
• 2:11
  past week. I watched Barbarian. I watched Us.
• 2:16
  I watched Evil Dead 2013. My absolute baby girl.
• 2:22
  So fucking good. And we also just got back from
• 2:26
  our horror movie film festival, Fantastic Fest,
• 2:29
  out of Austin, Texas. We've said it once, we've
• 2:32
  said it twice, we've said it eight million times,
• 2:34
  and we're gonna keep talking about it. We won't
• 2:36
  get too into detail, because we're gonna do a
• 2:38
  whole bony show talking about all the different
• 2:40
  movies and the experience and everything, but
• 2:42
  Cassie, do you have any overarching themes or
• 2:45
  takeaways of what you want to say about Fantastic
• 2:47
  Fest? Um, it was really awesome. Everyone there
• 2:51
  was so nice. Like, you'd just be, like, sitting
• 2:53
  and chatting, and then people would be like,
• 2:55
  actually, can I ask you a question? Or, like,
• 2:56
  you'd ask someone a question, and everyone was
• 2:58
  super nice. Um, it was really cool to see a variety
• 3:03
  of different movies. You never knew, like, if
• 3:06
  you were gonna love it or not. There was a lot
• 3:09
  of movies that, like, aren't coming to... like
• 3:12
  theaters near me anyway. So I was able to see
• 3:16
  those and that was really cool. And I also had
• 3:19
  a really embarrassing moment in front of Maggie
• 3:22
  where I met a YouTube creator that I liked and
• 3:26
  I like fangirled over her really bad. And it
• 3:28
  was really, really exciting. But yeah, and we
• 3:32
  made some new friends. It was just a great time.
• 3:36
  And we had some like scary Waymo rides. Yeah.
• 3:41
  We got an insane amount of compliments. The funny
• 3:44
  thing about going to, I mean, they had different
• 3:47
  types of movies, but it was like majority horror,
• 3:49
  right? Yeah. And the thing about going to a horror
• 3:51
  movie film festival is imagine the type of person
• 3:54
  that you think would go to that, and that is
• 3:57
  who is going, and imagine what you think they'd
• 3:59
  wear. That is what they're wearing. It was all
• 4:02
  people dressed in black with like tons of tattoos
• 4:05
  of creepy shit. It was like a typical like...
• 4:08
  goth person, I'd say, for the most part. Or just
• 4:11
  like middle -aged dude. Yeah, yeah, yeah, but
• 4:15
  like everybody was wearing dark colors, black,
• 4:18
  and me and Cassie were wearing bright hot pink
• 4:21
  Prager for Crager shirts where the like circles
• 4:24
  on all of the letters were hearts. And we got
• 4:27
  a lot of compliments on them, so if you were
• 4:29
  one of those people, thank you so much. Actually,
• 4:32
  you know what? Here's my biggest takeaway from
• 4:35
  Fantastic Fest. Oh, okay. For anybody who uses
• 4:39
  women's bathrooms, it was the best because it
• 4:42
  was mostly dudes there, so there was always a
• 4:44
  line out the door for the men's bathrooms because
• 4:47
  there's so many dudes, and the women, it was
• 4:49
  just the shortest lines I've ever seen, and it
• 4:52
  was great. It was feminism at work, at play.
• 4:55
  It was great. But yeah, it was super, super fun.
• 4:59
  Cassie's made of stronger stuff than I because...
• 5:02
  There were some days where I'm like, I can't
• 5:04
  go to four like five movies today today So I'm
• 5:06
  only gonna go to like three and Cassie was really
• 5:08
  brave and went to pretty much all the movies
• 5:11
  She possibly could so yeah strong I did leave
• 5:16
  my phone in a Waymo, which is a self -driving
• 5:18
  Uber. So that was pretty brutal. And it was like
• 5:22
  midnight when this happened. But I did get it
• 5:25
  back. And I'm excited to go next year. I'm already
• 5:28
  looking forward to it. Good. I was going to ask
• 5:30
  if you were like, do you think you want to go
• 5:32
  in the future? Because I liked it a lot. I'm
• 5:34
  definitely going to go again. I think as long
• 5:37
  as prices aren't too crazy, I'd want to do like,
• 5:39
  I did the second half of the festival this year.
• 5:43
  Just for various reasons, but I think it'd be
• 5:47
  fun to do like first half. First half, the first
• 5:52
  day of the festival everyone, Zach Greger and
• 5:55
  Austin Abrams were there. They premiered Resident
• 5:58
  Evil, which I have seen just in my regular theater,
• 6:01
  but I would have absolutely shit my fucking pants
• 6:04
  if those two men walked by me in a theater. I
• 6:07
  would like not know what to do with myself. I
• 6:11
  wasn't there the first day. We got in a day late.
• 6:15
  I think I said it on our bony sod that we last
• 6:19
  did, but I could watch Austin Abrams read the
• 6:21
  phone book. I love him so much. He's all over
• 6:26
  in my algorithm and I don't know if it's just
• 6:28
  because I do love him so much or if he's like
• 6:30
  blowing up because of Resident Evil. I think
• 6:33
  he is blowing up in a lot of ways. I don't know.
• 6:37
  I like didn't know anything about him because
• 6:39
  I didn't watch because I didn't feel like it
• 6:40
  wasn't euphoria kind of like his breakout role.
• 6:43
  Yeah, he was in euphoria and then he was in Dash
• 6:46
  and Lily, which is like a Christmas movie. And
• 6:48
  then he was in like Do Revenge. He's in Scary
• 6:51
  Stories to Tell in the Dark. He played the jock
• 6:53
  bully in Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. Yeah,
• 6:56
  I feel like I didn't really. know him or recognize
• 6:59
  him and anything into weapons. And I was obsessed
• 7:02
  with his character and weapons, like probably
• 7:04
  my favorite character in weapons. So yeah, I
• 7:08
  was watching this interview with Zach Kroeger
• 7:10
  and he was talking about like, that's how good
• 7:12
  of an actor that Austin Abrams is because he's
• 7:15
  like, even though he's like a lying, stealing,
• 7:18
  thieving, like drug addict, essentially, you
• 7:22
  like he's so lovable, like you can't help but
• 7:25
  like root for him. Yeah, I watched I watched
• 7:28
  it like an interview they were doing because
• 7:29
  as most of you know, like when they're promoting
• 7:31
  a movie, they do all sorts of like press and
• 7:33
  stuff. And so they answer all sorts of questions
• 7:35
  and tell all sorts of backstories. And Zach Craig
• 7:37
  was saying that, like when Austin Abrams was
• 7:40
  interviewed for, I don't know, auditioned light
• 7:44
  for weapons, it was like he met Zach Craig at
• 7:48
  like. a cafe or whatever. And he came in and
• 7:51
  was like in character. And so Zach Treger had
• 7:54
  never met him before and was just like, oh, like
• 7:56
  this guy's weird, but like he's good at the part.
• 7:58
  And then when he said like, yeah, I think you
• 8:00
  got the part, like at the cafe, then like Austin
• 8:02
  Abrams like came out of character and was like,
• 8:04
  oh my gosh, thank you so much. And he was like,
• 8:06
  oh, thank goodness. He's not like, he's not having
• 8:09
  a psychotic break. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I just,
• 8:14
  I don't know. It's just such a fun time. Horror
• 8:18
  movies are, oh, I watched Cabin in the Woods
• 8:20
  too. And boy, oh boy, did I forget how fucking
• 8:23
  good that movie is. I was just thinking, I was
• 8:25
  just thinking about like, I've just been watching
• 8:27
  like a lot of my staples that I hadn't just like
• 8:30
  sat down and watched from start to finish in
• 8:32
  like a hot minute. And it's just been like a
• 8:34
  really fun start to spooky season. And I'm even
• 8:38
  more excited about the spooky season movie we're
• 8:40
  covering today, Cass. Because speaking of staples,
• 8:44
  we did get a request for classics. So. For those
• 8:48
  of you who are requesting a classic, we are here
• 8:51
  to oblige. So today we are covering Friday the
• 8:56
  13th, you guys. Maggie calls herself a horror
• 8:59
  fan, had never seen Friday the 13th. I've never
• 9:02
  seen it. And you know what else, Cassie? This
• 9:04
  is really good timing because Crystal Lake comes
• 9:07
  out in 13 days. be later when this episode actually
• 9:13
  publishes. But as of right now, Crystal Lake
• 9:16
  comes out in like two weeks. I'm a Linda Cardellini
• 9:22
  apologist first and a person second. First of
• 9:25
  all, she doesn't age. She is the female version
• 9:28
  of Paul Rudd. You know how people say Paul Rudd
• 9:30
  doesn't age? That is what she is. I've also been
• 9:34
  obsessed with her. since Scooby -Doo. Scooby
• 9:37
  -Doo is one of my favorite live action. Scooby
• 9:38
  -Doo is one of my favorite movies of all time.
• 9:40
  Maggie says that about a lot of movies, but you
• 9:42
  guys, Maggie loves Scooby -Doo. Like, I'm not
• 9:46
  joking. Like, I'll throw it on if we just like
• 9:49
  need background stuff on. I'm like, I'll just
• 9:51
  throw it on. She'll be like, we were at the farm
• 9:54
  one time and she's like, I just really want to
• 9:57
  watch Scooby -Doo. Sometimes you just really
• 10:00
  need a hit, you know, right in the veins. And
• 10:04
  I just think that uh she's gonna absolutely kill
• 10:07
  it in this role so like is I don't know a ton
• 10:10
  about it in terms of like is it a prequel is
• 10:14
  it just like same universe I don't know that
• 10:17
  much and we can talk about it more like we don't
• 10:19
  need to you know get too into it we can talk
• 10:21
  about it more when it actually comes out but
• 10:23
  all that is to say I'm very excited to hear about
• 10:25
  this movie because I need to be prepped for for
• 10:28
  watching my girl in her new show yeah so we're
• 10:33
  covering the OG Friday the 13th And our question
• 10:36
  of the week is, according to superstition, Friday
• 10:40
  the 13th is considered an unlucky day, as many
• 10:43
  of you know. So do you have any superstitions,
• 10:46
  Maggie, or things that you think are like bad
• 10:48
  luck? So I'm not superstitious. I'm just a little
• 10:53
  stitious. No, in all honesty though, like I'm
• 10:57
  not that superstitious. I'm a big knocker on
• 11:02
  wood. Like anytime someone says something, like
• 11:05
  I'll knock on wood and not even say like, oh,
• 11:08
  knock on wood. Cause I'm just like, I don't know
• 11:10
  if that's being superstitious though, or being
• 11:11
  like slightly neuro spicy. I don't know. Um,
• 11:18
  but my big thing that never fails, never, never,
• 11:21
  never, never, never. If salt falls, I always
• 11:24
  throw it over my shoulder. It's like, that might
• 11:27
  be OCD actually that I have that issue, but I
• 11:29
  will, if a salt. shaker falls, I will pinch that
• 11:32
  salt, throw it over that left shoulder and be
• 11:35
  on my merry way. I know. That's why it's like,
• 11:37
  that's my only big one, I think. What about you?
• 11:41
  You'd think I'd have more because I played sports
• 11:43
  my whole life and I know athletes are known to
• 11:45
  be really superstitious, but I don't really,
• 11:48
  I guess. You didn't have like any rituals or
• 11:49
  anything that you had to do? No. I mean, I would
• 11:52
  always get really nervous for all my sporting
• 11:54
  events. So I'd always just be like, don't throw
• 11:56
  up. Don't poop your pants. Don't throw up. Don't
• 11:58
  poop your pants. So yeah. What about you? Um,
• 12:02
  yeah, I mean, OK, I'm kind of the same way that
• 12:05
  I don't really have any superstitions per se.
• 12:10
  But I'm one of those people who I don't I wouldn't
• 12:13
  say that I'm like a believer in karma in that
• 12:16
  I've like researched it. But I'm one of those
• 12:19
  people where I'm like, if I like if I'm taking
• 12:22
  something out of my pocket and a paper falls
• 12:24
  on the ground and I don't pick it up, I'm like.
• 12:26
  that'll come back to bite me later. So I have
• 12:28
  to pick it up or I'm going to feel bad about
• 12:30
  it. And then something's going to happen to me
• 12:32
  because I did this bad thing, which is mostly
• 12:34
  anxiety and OCD. Yes, mental illness. The other
• 12:42
  thing is, which is also kind of mental illness
• 12:45
  related, but a little bit of like superstition.
• 12:47
  Whenever I fly, although I'm getting better because
• 12:48
  I didn't do it before this last flight that I
• 12:50
  took this week for a work conference is I always
• 12:53
  text mom that I love her before I like fly because
• 12:57
  i'm like if i crash i don't want whatever the
• 12:59
  last thing i said to her to be anything else
• 13:01
  so i almost like anytime i'm like well not just
• 13:04
  when i fly like anytime when i'm like done talking
• 13:06
  to her before i like like hang up on the phone
• 13:09
  that's good that's just good sense that's just
• 13:11
  like good practice yeah i do i don't do that
• 13:14
  with everyone but i definitely do it with her
• 13:17
  um that's actually funny because on the way to
• 13:19
  fantastic fest i always forget now that like
• 13:23
  it's so easy to message on flights now where
• 13:26
  like it wasn't necessarily easy to do that before
• 13:29
  and on the way to Fantastic Fest to Texas from
• 13:32
  Minnesota we had a lot of turbulence and I was
• 13:35
  messaging James because I'm like if it's if we
• 13:37
  start going down like I need to say goodbye yeah
• 13:39
  so I get that yeah um okay well yes let's do
• 13:46
  it do we watch the trailer first Cassie I'm seriously
• 13:49
  gonna kill you Alright episode 50 and we're done
• 13:52
  because I'm quitting the pod Cassie is officially
• 13:55
  I never put it in my notes when we watch the
• 13:57
  trailer we watch the trailer now movie and no
• 14:00
  we do the movie info first and Then we watch
• 14:02
  the trailer and then we then we get into the
• 14:05
  recap. Yeah, okay You guys all in you all the
• 14:09
  listeners, you know how fucking incompetent you
• 14:10
  are leave this in You guys see what I have to
• 14:14
  deal with? Do you see why episode 50 is such
• 14:17
  a milestone? Because this is what I have to deal
• 14:19
  with. It truly is. This is all just to give Maggie
• 14:23
  some immersion therapy and having to deal with
• 14:26
  difficult people. Really is what it is. Okay,
• 14:29
  so it was written by Victor Miller and directed
• 14:34
  by Sean S. Cunningham. He also, Sean S. Cunningham
• 14:37
  did some of the... Like Reboot Friday the 13th
• 14:42
  as well and like some of the ones that were later
• 14:44
  in the series kind of like Halloween There's
• 14:46
  like a million of these right? Yeah, I believe
• 14:48
  there are 13 Friday the 13th is what I think
• 14:52
  is what they said when I was watching this thing
• 14:55
  about it like a One of those things where they
• 14:58
  tell you the history of something a documentary?
• 15:01
  Jesus fucking Christ I was watching a documentary
• 15:05
  about a day, but it was made in 2009, so it's
• 15:07
  probably more than that now. But I don't know.
• 15:10
  Listen, tell us in the comments. I feel like
• 15:12
  13 sounds right, because there was like Jason
• 15:16
  X and then Freddie versus Jason and then the
• 15:20
  new one. Does Freddie versus Jason all count
• 15:22
  as a Friday the 13th movie? I would say so because
• 15:24
  it has Jason in it. So is it also a Nightmare
• 15:28
  on Elm Street movie then? Yes. It's double. Or
• 15:31
  it's 50%. So it's 12 .5. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Um,
• 15:37
  so it's starring Betsy Palmer, Adrian King, Harry
• 15:40
  Crosby, Lori Bartram, Mark Nelson, Janine Taylor,
• 15:47
  Robbie Morgan, and someone that some of you may
• 15:51
  have heard of named Kevin Bacon. Kevin Bacon.
• 15:55
  He must be Lil Baby. Yeah, this is one of his
• 15:58
  first roles. It's not his first one, but it's
• 16:00
  like a very early role of his. Mm hmm. Yeah.
• 16:05
  The runtime is one hour and 35 minutes, but it
• 16:07
  did seem a little bit longer. Like there were
• 16:09
  a couple of times when I was like checking the
• 16:10
  runtime, when I was like watching it, because
• 16:12
  I was like, oh, it seems like it's going to wrap
• 16:14
  up soon. Like, yeah, you know, but it did not.
• 16:18
  Just to confirm. I saw you not even 12 hours
• 16:23
  ago, and you were two and a half hours away from
• 16:25
  your house. Are you telling me that you drove
• 16:28
  two and a half hours home, watched this movie,
• 16:31
  and took notes since the last time I saw you?
• 16:33
  Yes. Okay. Good for you. And watched half of
• 16:36
  the documentary. Maybe. We'll see with the quality
• 16:39
  of your recap, and then I'll say good for you,
• 16:41
  I guess. Rude. Okay. Rotten Tomatoes Critic Review,
• 16:44
  48%. Oh, jeez. Okay. Thanks. And Rotten Tomatoes'
• 16:49
  audience review is only 60%, which is surprising
• 16:51
  to me for like a quote unquote classic. Yeah,
• 16:54
  I'm so confused why this is like such a cult
• 16:56
  classic because to me, this movie is like the
• 17:01
  exact same as Halloween. Like to me, when I'm
• 17:04
  looking at a classic old horror movie that's
• 17:06
  like everybody fucking loves, it's like this
• 17:08
  and Halloween are like... on the scales and they're
• 17:11
  balancing out each other. But I guess that's
• 17:13
  not the case. Yeah, I feel like it's almost like
• 17:17
  the... It's almost like camp. Like I know camp
• 17:20
  in the way that it's like not summer camp, obviously.
• 17:23
  I know. I mean, we've talked about this before.
• 17:25
  We're like older horror movies tend to be more
• 17:28
  hit or miss with audiences, you know, especially
• 17:31
  like me personally, I don't like older ones as
• 17:33
  much. Yeah. And so I think that that's why the
• 17:37
  percentages are maybe a little bit different
• 17:38
  because Rotten Tomatoes came about way later
• 17:42
  than the movie was made. And I think, like, if
• 17:44
  it was somebody's first time watching it back
• 17:47
  then, you know, and Rotten Tomatoes existed,
• 17:50
  it would be a very different experience. I think
• 17:51
  about that every time I watch an older movie
• 17:54
  that, like, had some ideas that have become,
• 17:59
  like, kind of, like, older, tired. But back then,
• 18:02
  they were very new, right? So, like, the camp
• 18:06
  slasher was, like, originated. with this movie,
• 18:10
  you know what I mean? So, but like now it's like,
• 18:12
  Oh, I've seen this a million times, but it's
• 18:14
  like, everybody's just copying this movie. So
• 18:16
  I'm like, it's almost reverse engineering it.
• 18:18
  Yeah. Um, so some movie trivia, um, the title
• 18:24
  Friday the 13th existed existed before the scripted,
• 18:27
  um, They're basically like, hey, Friday the 13th,
• 18:30
  the thing we should make a movie out of it. And
• 18:32
  also the director had said something like they
• 18:34
  were mostly making like children's movies as
• 18:36
  of late. And they were like, we need something
• 18:38
  that's actually going to make us money. So nice.
• 18:41
  But then I was like, I'm surprised you chose
• 18:43
  a horror movie then, because I don't feel like
• 18:44
  that's considered like a moneymaker. But whatever.
• 18:47
  Not back then, I feel like. I'm not going to
• 18:50
  tell you what it is, but there's a scare at the
• 18:53
  end of the movie that the makeup artist, Tom
• 18:55
  Savini, which that name sounds really familiar,
• 18:58
  but I think I know the twist that you're talking
• 19:00
  about. OK, I'm not going to say what it is, but
• 19:02
  he suggested it after seeing the ending of the
• 19:07
  movie, Carrie. OK, so if you've seen Carrie,
• 19:10
  you might know what I'm talking about. One of
• 19:13
  the main people, I'm not going to tell you exactly
• 19:15
  who they are, but took the role. Well, because
• 19:17
  you don't want to spoil things, you know? I know,
• 19:19
  I know. Took the role because she needed money
• 19:22
  for a new car, but she thought the script was
• 19:24
  like garbage. This has a very iconic sound. I
• 19:31
  don't even want to say like soundtrack because
• 19:33
  it's just this thing where it goes like, you
• 19:37
  know, well you don't know because you haven't
• 19:39
  seen it. No, I don't know. But any time that
• 19:41
  we're in like the killer's point of view, because
• 19:43
  it does killer POV a lot, there's this just like,
• 19:46
  it goes like. Okay. It's just a sound effect.
• 19:52
  I'll look it up after this. Yes. Um, maybe it'll
• 19:55
  have it on the trailer. Yeah. Um, and I'll tell
• 19:59
  you what that represents later. Okay. Um, it
• 20:02
  was shot for $550 ,000 at a real Boy Scout camp
• 20:07
  called Camp No -B -Bo -Skull in Hardwick, New
• 20:11
  Jersey. Okay. Um, and the camp still exists and
• 20:15
  sometimes has fan tours. Which is crazy because
• 20:18
  when I was watching this I was like all these
• 20:20
  cabins are so far away. I feel like Most girls
• 20:23
  go out camps and things that like we've gone
• 20:24
  to there's very clear trails or like the cabins
• 20:27
  are close to each other and it's like very clear
• 20:29
  but like Any time that these people were going
• 20:32
  to a different part of the camp. They just run
• 20:35
  straight through the woods They're not just walking
• 20:37
  along a trail. So I thought that was interesting.
• 20:39
  Maybe it just makes it more like scary if you
• 20:42
  do that. More fun to watch. Yes. It became the
• 20:45
  first independent slasher picked up by a major
• 20:47
  studio, which was Paramount. And I had told you
• 20:50
  earlier that it was made for around 550 ,000
• 20:54
  and it made 59 .8 million worldwide. So the director
• 20:59
  got his wish of making something that he needed
• 21:03
  money for. And it's set in 1979 because there's
• 21:08
  a part where it says Present day, but 79 is present
• 21:13
  day for them. Sorry, when did it come out again?
• 21:16
  79, or like it's supposed to be set in 79 and
• 21:18
  it came out in like 79 or 80, I think. Okay.
• 21:22
  Yeah. Okay. Okay, should we watch the trailer
• 21:24
  that you're going to pull up? I would love to.
• 21:27
  Okay. I want to get the real like atmospheric
• 21:31
  vibe of this one. You can see how accurate my...
• 21:35
  Yeah. Kind of sounds like... Wait, Cassie, now
• 21:39
  I know what you're talking about. That last one
• 21:40
  you did was really good. The last one you did
• 21:42
  was really good. Okay, I don't want it to give
• 21:49
  away everything. Yeah, I was gonna say I feel
• 21:51
  like it's showing everything, so maybe we don't
• 21:53
  watch the rest. But you get the vibe. Um, I do
• 21:56
  get the vibe. Yeah, you gotta have a classic
• 22:00
  like people fooling around in the 70s slash 80s
• 22:03
  when you have a horror movie, you know? I also
• 22:05
  just love the original In A World. You know,
• 22:11
  because that's how the guy's voice was. I found
• 22:13
  out that one of the guys who did the voices for
• 22:16
  trailers that had that deep voice, I don't know
• 22:18
  if it was a particular guy in this trailer, is
• 22:20
  from Duluth, where I live. Cool. He's not with
• 22:24
  us anymore, but that's okay. Well, it's not okay
• 22:28
  to a lot of people. Whatever. Anyway, it's the
• 22:30
  circle of life. We're just going to go for it.
• 22:32
  Okay. Please do. All right. We open at Camp Crystal
• 22:35
  Lake in 1958 with a bunch of camp counselors
• 22:39
  singing in like the counselor cabin. They're
• 22:42
  just doing their thing with a guitar around a
• 22:46
  fire being like, la la la. And we see the POV
• 22:51
  of someone walk up to the Fox cabin and we hear
• 22:55
  the. So anytime we have the POV shots. imagine
• 23:02
  that sound coming through. The person opens the
• 23:06
  door and looks around at the sleeping campers
• 23:09
  in their beds, kind of hovering over each one.
• 23:13
  They continue to walk and then they grab a towel
• 23:17
  off the door. we cut back to the counselors and
• 23:21
  there's a girl playing guitar who kind of eyes
• 23:23
  up a blonde boy across the way. And as they're
• 23:27
  done singing the song, she grabs his hand and
• 23:29
  they walk hand in hand, give a little smooch
• 23:31
  -a -roo. They run to a secret cabin that looks
• 23:35
  like it's a boathouse. It has life jackets, but
• 23:38
  I don't actually see any boats. But they go in
• 23:41
  there and there's like a loft. and they lay a
• 23:45
  blanket down and after some heavy petting and
• 23:49
  smooching, they're starting to undress and we
• 23:53
  see the POV again of the person from earlier
• 23:57
  in the same building. They are walking up the
• 24:01
  stairs. They see the counselors making out and
• 24:05
  you hear the girl go, somebody's here. Uh, they're
• 24:08
  quickly buttoning up their clothes and the guy's
• 24:10
  like, we weren't doing anything. And all of a
• 24:14
  sudden, Oh, the counselor falls to the ground,
• 24:18
  having been stabbed in the stomach and the girl
• 24:21
  counselor is trying to get away. And she's like,
• 24:22
  she's like throwing things at the person and
• 24:25
  she screams and we zoom in on her. And then all
• 24:30
  of a sudden, Friday the 13th title card. So it's
• 24:35
  like this big Friday the 13th and it's like glass
• 24:37
  breaking. How graphic is it? Do they show the
• 24:41
  blood? They show blood. They show blood. The
• 24:46
  credits are just on a black background with music.
• 24:49
  So there's nothing that's like revealing itself
• 24:51
  during the credits. We then cut to a title card
• 24:55
  over a woman walking with a backpack, and it
• 24:59
  says, Friday, June 13th, the present, which keep
• 25:02
  in mind is supposed to be 1979. We look to see
• 25:04
  what seems to be like a sleepy small town as
• 25:08
  a girl with a typical 70s brown hair flannel
• 25:13
  and jeans. Not like that 70s hair is brown, but
• 25:16
  like with the like fluffy, curly, you know what
• 25:18
  I mean? Yeah. Yes, jeans and backpack, like a
• 25:24
  camping backpack walks across town and she just
• 25:27
  looks like she's ready to take on life. And she
• 25:31
  spots a doggo at a gas station. She's like, how
• 25:33
  far is it to camp Crystal Lake? She's like, Oh,
• 25:36
  you can't tell me. She just keeps walking. So
• 25:39
  she's just like too happy for her own good. She
• 25:42
  stops into this place that looks like a convenience
• 25:45
  store, but also a diner and asks. how far Camp
• 25:49
  Crystal Lake is, and they all look at her silently
• 25:52
  at first. But then the waitress tells her that
• 25:54
  it's down the road about 20 miles. And another
• 25:58
  woman who is at the diner is like, Camp Blood?
• 26:01
  Are they opening that place again? Oh. And the
• 26:05
  girl asks if there's a bus to Camp Crystal Lake.
• 26:09
  And this guy named Enos, who's in the diner,
• 26:13
  is like, no, and offers to give her a ride like
• 26:17
  mostly there. And she introduces herself to Enos
• 26:21
  and her name is Annie. But she is like not concerned
• 26:25
  about the fact that that one woman was like,
• 26:26
  Camp Blood? I'm like, okay. I'm gonna pretend
• 26:31
  I didn't hear that. It's just where all teenage
• 26:33
  girls go once they hit their age of menses. Yeah,
• 26:38
  I was gonna say, I just had Camp Blood last week,
• 26:39
  you know what I'm saying? Okay, so. he drives
• 26:45
  like an oil or like gas propane kind of truck
• 26:48
  one of those kind of trucks and Enos asked her
• 26:52
  if everyone at camp is as pretty as her which
• 26:55
  I'm like that's creepy because he's like a middle
• 26:58
  -aged man yeah and a man named Ralph who is clearly
• 27:02
  like the town yahoo yeah walks up and says my
• 27:06
  people yes go in he's like You go into camp blood,
• 27:10
  aren't you? You'll never come back again." And
• 27:14
  Enos is like, leave her alone, Ralph. And Annie
• 27:18
  then gets in Enos's truck and Enos rants about
• 27:22
  Ralph a little, just like, oh, he gets drunk
• 27:24
  and goes on these weird sprees and whatever.
• 27:28
  Enos asks her what she'll be doing at camp and
• 27:30
  if her boss has told her anything. And she's
• 27:33
  like, well, I'm going to be the cook for about
• 27:35
  like 50 inner city kids or so. And Enos is like,
• 27:41
  right, but did the owner tell you what happened?
• 27:45
  And she's like. No. You know, like Camp Blood,
• 27:49
  they tell you. She's not good at picking up the
• 27:52
  context clues. Sure. Yep. She seems like the
• 27:55
  type. Yes. Enos tells her to just quit. And he's
• 27:57
  like, the camp is jinxed. And he said, there
• 28:00
  were two kids murdered in 1958, which we witnessed
• 28:02
  earlier. There was a boy who drowned in 1957.
• 28:06
  There are a bunch of fires since then that have
• 28:08
  broke out and they couldn't figure out how they
• 28:10
  started. And the owner is going to just end up
• 28:13
  crazy and broke like his parents. Um, he also
• 28:15
  said that he has spent $25 ,000 fixing up the
• 28:19
  place over the last year, which I was going to
• 28:20
  look at conversion. Yes. In 1979. Cause I was
• 28:25
  like, that seems like a lot. That would be $115
• 28:28
  ,351 and 24 cents today. So over a hundred grand.
• 28:33
  That's a lot of money to fix up a camp. Yeah.
• 28:36
  Cause I wouldn't say camps are real money makers,
• 28:39
  at least like this kind of camp. You know what
• 28:40
  I mean? Certainly not. There's a reason that
• 28:44
  a lot of camps don't exist anymore. Yeah. Well,
• 28:46
  I was talking to my boss has a daughter who goes
• 28:50
  to Girl Scout camps. And I guess times have changed
• 28:53
  because it used to be like a couple hundred bucks
• 28:55
  for us to go to camp for a week at Girl Scout
• 28:56
  camp. She said it's over $800 to go to camp for
• 28:59
  a week at Girl Scout camp. I'm like, yes, that
• 29:01
  makes sense. You have to make money and you have
• 29:03
  to pay for all their food. And yeah, it just,
• 29:05
  I was like, Oh my gosh. Yikes. So he said that
• 29:08
  he spent about 25 K fixing up the camp over the
• 29:10
  last year. And he then said, kids are dumb with
• 29:16
  heads full of rocks. And she's like, you're an
• 29:20
  American original. And she says, at least I'm
• 29:24
  not afraid of ghosts. It's like this girl, I
• 29:27
  don't know. You will be pretty soon there, bitch.
• 29:30
  He drops off Annie right in front of a cemetery
• 29:32
  because you have to. And Annie continues to walk
• 29:36
  to Camp Crystal Lake. And it's unclear how far
• 29:38
  away she is, but she's like, still walking as
• 29:41
  some of these other things are transpiring. Yeah.
• 29:43
  So we see some other counselors driving in a
• 29:47
  truck jamming to some banjo. Like they are just
• 29:50
  going hard with banjo. It's like when Leslie
• 29:53
  Knope and Ben take that drive to Indianapolis
• 29:55
  and she plays the banjo to like cut the sexual
• 29:58
  tension. That's the kind of music they're listening
• 30:00
  to. So the teens in the seventies. I guess they
• 30:04
  like banjo. Weird. That's just giving me like
• 30:06
  deliverance vibes. Yeah. So we meet Marcy, Ned,
• 30:14
  and Kevin Bacon. I don't remember what Kevin
• 30:16
  Bacon's name is, so I'm just calling them Kevin
• 30:18
  throughout the whole thing. That's fine. And
• 30:20
  you can tell that these kids are kind of horned
• 30:23
  up. Ned is the camp like jokester. Of course
• 30:26
  they're horned up. They were just listening to
• 30:28
  banjo music. That gives everyone horny. Yeah,
• 30:31
  and I thought that Kevin and Marcy or sorry,
• 30:37
  it's Brenda, Ned and Kevin. And I thought that
• 30:40
  Brenda and Kevin were dating, but I guess they're
• 30:43
  not. They're just really friendly and they're
• 30:46
  driving in this truck and they pull up to Camp
• 30:47
  Crystal Lake. We see a man in slutty little glasses
• 30:51
  with he he has cut off jean shorts, no shirt.
• 30:56
  These like those tall. wool socks with the red
• 30:59
  like tops coming out of like these like hiking
• 31:02
  boots and he's chopping like a root of a tree.
• 31:06
  And I'm just like, oh, okay. He's cutting some
• 31:11
  wood and he calls out to a woman named Alice
• 31:13
  and the kids introduce themselves as he introduces
• 31:16
  himself as Steve, the owner of the camp. He delegates
• 31:20
  some tasks to them and Alice volunteers to show
• 31:23
  them where they need to go. And I will say it's
• 31:26
  hard because I feel like in ye old times, everyone
• 31:30
  that's like above the age of 18 kind of looks
• 31:33
  the same until they get old. So you could kind
• 31:37
  of tell that Steve was, I would say in this,
• 31:41
  he's supposed to look like he's in his like thirties
• 31:43
  maybe, but Alice seems like she's older than
• 31:47
  the other counselors at the camp, but at the
• 31:50
  same time, sometimes she acts like them. So it's
• 31:55
  unclear. I think she's maybe a little bit older
• 31:57
  than the counselors, but not as old as Steve.
• 31:59
  Not that it really matters. A little later, Steve
• 32:03
  is helping Alice with the gutters and he spots
• 32:05
  some of her drawings on the ground. She has an
• 32:08
  artist's tablet and he's giving her a little
• 32:11
  bit of a seductive look as he's like complimenting
• 32:14
  these drawings. Alice says that she may have
• 32:18
  to go to California to straighten some things
• 32:21
  out. She doesn't say what and he begs her to
• 32:24
  stay another week to get things ready and to
• 32:26
  give him another chance. Okay. So it seems like
• 32:31
  they were dating. He was shooting his shot and
• 32:34
  then he... Yeah, but then he, like, strokes her
• 32:38
  shoulder before he, like, walks away, and she
• 32:41
  gives him kind of a weird look, like, what was
• 32:44
  that for? So it's very strange. I don't know
• 32:47
  if it's just 70s flirting or what. I don't know.
• 32:51
  We then see Alice running through the woods.
• 32:55
  but from the perspective of someone watching,
• 32:57
  because she's running down to the dock area.
• 33:01
  We see another shirtless man, but not as much
• 33:03
  of a thirst trap. He's got white pants and suspenders,
• 33:07
  and he's painting the dock and the lifeguard
• 33:10
  stand, and his name is Bill. He's asking if everyone's
• 33:15
  shown up, and Alice is like, well, everyone except
• 33:16
  that girl named Annie. He's supposed to be the
• 33:18
  cook. Steve delegates a few more tasks to the
• 33:24
  counselors before driving off on an errand and
• 33:27
  he drives a Jeep. Ned jokes to the other counselors
• 33:31
  that Steve neglected to mention that the townies
• 33:33
  in camp call the place Camp Blood as they go
• 33:36
  on their way. Out at the archery court, Brenda
• 33:40
  is setting up the archery targets and swoosh
• 33:44
  an arrow passes right by her and into the target.
• 33:48
  And she turns around and we see that it's Ned
• 33:51
  and the girl's like, what the heck, Ned? And
• 33:54
  he walks up to her and he's like, you're beautiful,
• 33:57
  sweetheart. And he says it like an accent like
• 33:59
  that. Because Ned's like the clown. He just can't
• 34:02
  take anything seriously. And he laughs and she
• 34:04
  like chews him away. She's like, do that again
• 34:07
  and I'll punch you in the face or something like
• 34:09
  that. We see Annie still walking to camp, holding
• 34:12
  up a thumb for a ride. And a Jeep stops and she
• 34:16
  gets inside saying she's going to Camp Crystal
• 34:18
  Lake. And we do not see who is driving this Jeep.
• 34:22
  Okay. We see Annie then saying, I've always wanted
• 34:25
  to work with kids when you have or work with
• 34:28
  children when you have a dream as long as I do,
• 34:30
  you'll do anything. She makes a comment then
• 34:33
  about how she hates when people call children
• 34:36
  kids because it makes them sound like a bunch
• 34:38
  of goats. It's like animal jokes. I'm sorry,
• 34:42
  but I can't stand this woman. I'm sure she's
• 34:44
  lovely and great, and I just don't like her.
• 34:48
  Yes. So then the person driving the Jeep speeds
• 34:52
  by the Camp Crystal Lake sign as Annie notices,
• 34:56
  and she's like, please, please stop as the music
• 34:58
  starts to get tense and is like, you know, violence
• 35:02
  and stuff. She jumps out the door, which I'm
• 35:05
  like, heck, yes. But then the Jeep just backs
• 35:08
  up. And the person gets out and starts chasing
• 35:10
  Annie through the woods. Annie is really struggling
• 35:13
  to run by the way. She must have hurt her ankle
• 35:16
  or something like that. Falling out of a car.
• 35:20
  Yeah. We, as she's running, we hear loon sounds.
• 35:24
  This happens a lot. Are loons actually, do they
• 35:27
  live in New Jersey? Sure. Okay. Yeah. Okay. So
• 35:30
  we hear some loon sounds. I think it's just to
• 35:34
  indicate, like, hey, just remember, we're in
• 35:36
  nature. And Annie falls face first to the feet
• 35:39
  of the person that was driving the Jeep. And
• 35:42
  she begs, she's like, no, no, no, no. And we
• 35:44
  see her throat get sliced. Oh, shit. And then
• 35:48
  we cut to white, which I was like, oh, interesting.
• 35:53
  OK, I thought she was going to be like the main
• 35:54
  character. Me too. It was like a Drew Barrymore
• 35:57
  situation. OK. Uh, we see the counselors at the
• 36:01
  lake pulling out the raft all together and they're
• 36:04
  just like having a little break. So they're swimming
• 36:07
  and chatting about random things like their favorite
• 36:11
  flavor of ice cream. But we see someone watching
• 36:15
  through the woods and hear the Brenda thinks
• 36:19
  she sees something in the distance, but she just
• 36:22
  shrugs it off as the person continues to watch.
• 36:24
  Uh, everyone else has gone to the beach part.
• 36:27
  already and Ned is still in the water. He starts
• 36:30
  begging for help and like going under the water.
• 36:33
  So a bunch of them jump into the water to swim
• 36:36
  after him and a couple people grab a canoe. One
• 36:38
  girl pulls him up from beneath the water surface
• 36:41
  and they like not swim. I don't need like struggle
• 36:45
  all the sudden. Okay, they pull him onto the
• 36:46
  dock and he's like coughing and gasping and kind
• 36:49
  of out of it. And so the girl gives him mouth
• 36:52
  to mouth and Oh, he was pulling a sandlot. He
• 36:56
  was pulling a sandlot. That's exactly what I
• 36:58
  put in my notes. He pulls the old sandlot. Yep.
• 37:01
  I guess sandlot got it from this. So yes, I don't
• 37:04
  know. Later, we see Alice in her cabin getting
• 37:07
  dressed and oh no, there's a black snake on the
• 37:11
  floor. So she's like freaking out and she calls
• 37:13
  Bill to come in and save her and like everyone
• 37:15
  comes in to save her, but they just kind of make
• 37:16
  a mess because the snake goes under the bed.
• 37:18
  And so they're trying to figure out ways to get
• 37:20
  the snake out. And Kevin Bacon just like body
• 37:23
  slams onto the bed, which causes the mattress
• 37:25
  to like fall in. And then there's like feathers
• 37:27
  everywhere from the pillow because they're trying
• 37:30
  to get the snake out from under the bed. If they're
• 37:32
  just not having to me, I would just burn the
• 37:35
  bunkhouse down, just burning down. And then Bill
• 37:37
  just chops the snake with a machete twice. And
• 37:41
  I don't kill it. Yes. And I don't think Peter
• 37:44
  would have proved of this movie because it looks
• 37:46
  like a real snake, a real snake that they're
• 37:49
  actually chopping. It did not look like effects.
• 37:53
  So I was surprised that they would do that. I
• 37:56
  was like, isn't this animal torture? I don't
• 37:59
  know. Let us know if it was a real snake. In
• 38:01
  the comments? Oh, is Maggie asking someone to
• 38:03
  put something in the comments? Yeah, this is
• 38:06
  the one time for episode 50. I'll make an exception
• 38:09
  that I need to know if the snake is real. OK,
• 38:13
  there's some of the girls chatting. It's a lot
• 38:15
  of like cl - switching between like them doing
• 38:17
  different things at camp. Right. So some of the
• 38:19
  girls are chatting and in true 70s style fashion,
• 38:23
  uh, Ned runs out in his underwear and a native
• 38:26
  American had dress being offensive and a police
• 38:29
  officer on a motorcycle pulls up questioning
• 38:32
  the kids and what they are doing. And as Kevin
• 38:35
  Bacon walks in, the guy is like, have you been
• 38:38
  smoking Colombian gold man brass hash? You dig
• 38:43
  it. Like very stereotypical I guess like old
• 38:47
  -time police officer and Kevin Bacon's like no
• 38:49
  I don't do that it causes cancer and I was like
• 38:51
  I didn't think they knew that in the 70s that
• 38:53
  it caused cancer but maybe they did and they
• 38:55
  still did it anyway but smoking cigarettes yeah
• 38:58
  I thought they didn't know until later in like
• 39:01
  the 80s and 90s that it caused cancer. He's asking
• 39:03
  about like hash. That's like smoking weed. Right.
• 39:06
  Hash is weed, not cigarettes. Yeah, that's true.
• 39:09
  I don't know. Anyway, the officer is looking
• 39:11
  for Ralph. You remember Ralph from earlier, the
• 39:13
  harbinger, classic harbinger. Yep, my guy. He
• 39:17
  says that every time Ralph gets drunk, he causes
• 39:19
  a little bit of ruckus, but the cop gets radioed
• 39:21
  back to town. So he's like, you kids stay out
• 39:24
  of trouble. And he drives away. And the kids
• 39:27
  attending this camp still are not there yet,
• 39:29
  right? Correct. The kids never come to this camp.
• 39:32
  It's just the counselors being there. Getting
• 39:34
  it ready. Yes. Correct. It's supposed to be,
• 39:36
  I think, about two weeks before camp starts.
• 39:39
  Okay. Alice is cleaning up the kitchen and she
• 39:43
  goes into the pantry and out pops Ralph telling
• 39:45
  them, this place is cursed and I'm the messenger
• 39:49
  of God. You are doomed if you stay here. Doomed.
• 39:55
  And then he just walks out of the cabin and hops
• 39:58
  on his bike and tells them they're doomed some
• 40:00
  more and then rides off. How old is he? He's
• 40:03
  probably in his like late 50s, early 60s. Is
• 40:07
  he hot? No. Oh, I love a man who rides a bike.
• 40:11
  I mean, yeah, it's not like in a sexy way. It's
• 40:14
  just in a very casual way. Sorry. We don't really
• 40:19
  get any more like thirst trap stuff besides that
• 40:22
  guy who was chopping the roots. Unfortunately,
• 40:25
  I was like, Oh, we're getting some eye candy.
• 40:28
  And then it kind of just stops. We see a bunch
• 40:30
  of nature shots. They do a lot of nature shots
• 40:32
  around the camp to switch and transition to the
• 40:34
  different scenes. And Kevin and Marcy are walking
• 40:39
  around and they are an item. Okay. Ned, the jokester
• 40:43
  is by the lake doing his Ned thing. And we hear
• 40:46
  some eerie music as. Ned kind of sees a figure
• 40:50
  head into one of the cabins, but he doesn't see
• 40:52
  who it is. He's like, Hey, what'd you do in there?
• 40:53
  Do you, do you, do you need help? Um, we hear
• 40:57
  more loon calls as Kevin and Marcy are walking
• 41:02
  by giving each other some smooches. Ned has followed
• 41:06
  the person into the cabin, but then we don't
• 41:08
  hear anything else from Ned. They're discussing
• 41:11
  whether or not they think Ned is going to be
• 41:14
  okay, I guess. because there's like some thunder
• 41:17
  and lightning starting and they're like, where's
• 41:19
  Ned? I don't know what to do. And Marcy talks
• 41:22
  about how she had this dream when she was younger
• 41:25
  about a storm and that it rained blood that turned
• 41:30
  into rivers. And so now storms kind of still
• 41:32
  scare her to this day. We see that the storm
• 41:36
  is picking up. So Kevin and Marcy make their
• 41:38
  way into that camper cabin that we saw Ned go
• 41:41
  into earlier and start making out. And Kevin
• 41:45
  lights a candle and Marcy starts stripping down
• 41:48
  and they kiss and they lay down in the bed together.
• 41:51
  They start doing the hanky panky, but it's actually
• 41:54
  like quite vanilla. It's like they don't, they
• 41:57
  don't really show anything and they're both just
• 41:59
  like, it's very. Tame 76. Yeah, that's just how
• 42:07
  it was. And they pan up while this is happening.
• 42:11
  They pan up and we see on the top bunk, Ned laying
• 42:15
  there with his throat slashed. Oh, that's fine.
• 42:19
  That's a fun transition. Yeah. Back at the counselor
• 42:22
  cabin, Brenda, Alice and Bill decide to play
• 42:26
  strip monopoly, which I guess the way strip monopoly
• 42:30
  works is if you land on someone's property instead
• 42:33
  of paying them, they tell you what to like an
• 42:36
  item to take off. Okay. Which I was like, okay,
• 42:38
  I've never heard of strip monopoly, but they
• 42:41
  all seemed excited about it. Horny, horny, horny.
• 42:44
  Yes. Kevin and Marcy have finished up and Marcy
• 42:46
  says she needs to go pee, leaving Kevin in the
• 42:49
  cabin. Kevin is laying there and he feels like
• 42:52
  a drip of something above him. like, on his face,
• 42:56
  and he, like, wipes it, and before he can even
• 42:58
  really think about it, an arm reaches around
• 43:00
  him from under the bed and holds him down. He
• 43:04
  starts, like, struggling as we see an arrow come
• 43:07
  up through Kevin's chest and, like, twist around.
• 43:11
  Cool. Yeah. Does it have, like, a broad head,
• 43:14
  or is it, like, the tip is the same width as
• 43:18
  the rest of the arrow? No, it's like a... Does
• 43:24
  the arrowhead look like this, like a triangle,
• 43:27
  or is the arrowhead just like an arrow where
• 43:29
  it's just one long skin? No, it looks like once
• 43:32
  you pop it through, you don't want to pull it
• 43:34
  back out. Okay, sure. Cool. Fun. Love that. Love
• 43:38
  that. So Marcy is making her way to the bath
• 43:41
  house and into a stall and we see the figure.
• 43:45
  um, make their way into the bathroom behind Marcy.
• 43:49
  Marcy hears the door squeak and she walks out
• 43:52
  of the stall thinking that it is Kevin. She starts
• 43:56
  washing up her hands and hears more sounds. So
• 43:58
  she goes to inspect the shower area. It's one
• 44:01
  of the things at like a camp where there's multiple
• 44:02
  stalls for the showers with just the curtains,
• 44:05
  kind of like you'd have it like a gym or something.
• 44:06
  Yep. And so she quickly opens each shower curtain
• 44:09
  and is like, Gotcha. You know, because she thinks
• 44:12
  it's like one of the boys playing a prank on
• 44:13
  her. As she opens one of the curtains, we see
• 44:15
  a shadow behind her with an axe and she turns
• 44:18
  around and bang, axe to the face. Right on the
• 44:22
  face. Yes, they show it in her face as she like
• 44:25
  falls down to the ground. Sick. Does it look
• 44:27
  cool or does it look stupid 70s? Or does it look
• 44:29
  stupid 70s in a fun way? Yeah, I would say it
• 44:32
  looks good. I mean, all of this is practical
• 44:34
  effects and it's like pretty good. They never
• 44:37
  show it like... They didn't show it, like, inserting
• 44:40
  into her head. They just showed, like, the action
• 44:42
  of it going, and then her with it implanted in
• 44:45
  her face falling down to the ground. Sure, okay.
• 44:48
  At Strip Monopoly, Brenda realizes she must have
• 44:50
  left the windows open in her cabin because they
• 44:52
  realized the storm was picking up, so she puts
• 44:54
  on her raincoat, but she doesn't put back on
• 44:56
  her clothes. She's like in her bra and underwear
• 44:59
  but puts the raincoat on over and just holds
• 45:01
  her clothes as she runs back to her cabin. Girl,
• 45:04
  you nasty. What? Put your clothes back on. What's
• 45:06
  her name again? Brenda. Brenda. Brenda's nasty.
• 45:11
  Back at a different diner, not the diner I was
• 45:13
  talking about earlier, but a different diner,
• 45:15
  Steve is finishing up a cup of coffee. We assume
• 45:17
  he was running some errands because he had like
• 45:19
  a trailer attached to his Jeep and like was picking
• 45:21
  some stuff up. So he finishes a cup of coffee.
• 45:24
  He puts on his yellow slicker, uh, and gets into
• 45:28
  his Jeep and drives off. Back at camp, Brenda
• 45:31
  heads into the bath house to get ready for bed.
• 45:34
  As we see someone watching Brenda, here's a shower
• 45:38
  curtain rattle, but thinks nothing of it. And
• 45:41
  as she's brushing her hair, we see a hand peek
• 45:45
  out from behind the curtain. But as Brenda looks
• 45:47
  back, the hand is gone. Brenda finishes up and
• 45:51
  heads back outside. In the rain, we see that
• 45:54
  Steve's Jeep has broken down and conveniently
• 45:57
  a cop pulls up and gives him a ride. And he's
• 46:00
  like, oh, the one guy's like, well, can a Jeep
• 46:02
  go through anything? And the guy's like, not
• 46:05
  when there's a big trailer behind it. You guys
• 46:07
  know your vehicle's tow capacities. You can put
• 46:10
  other people in danger if you don't know your
• 46:12
  tow capacity. That's my PSA for the day. The
• 46:15
  more, you know, we see the spooky spectator.
• 46:20
  That's what I decided to call him watching Brenda
• 46:22
  in her cabin. She turns out the light, like the.
• 46:27
  regular light and lights a candle to go lay down
• 46:31
  in bed and read a book, which I'm like, well,
• 46:33
  just bring the light with you. What are you doing?
• 46:35
  Because it's like a lantern. Brenda is a fucking
• 46:37
  vibe. Brenda is an absolute vibe. This woman
• 46:39
  is unhinged in the most fun way. She's like,
• 46:43
  I will only read books by candlelight. Only.
• 46:47
  I get it, girl. The ambiance. The ambiance has
• 46:51
  to be exquisite. Yeah, so keep in mind throughout
• 46:54
  this whole time. There's like a rainstorm going
• 46:57
  on and so as she's getting ready to read her
• 46:59
  book She thinks she hears a voice in the distance.
• 47:01
  It kind of sounds like someone saying like help
• 47:03
  or help me So she's like, hmm, so she heads out
• 47:08
  into the rain with her flashlight, but this time
• 47:09
  she does not wear a rain jacket So she's got
• 47:12
  like a nightgown on a key. Oh, she's got a nightgown
• 47:14
  on but no rain jacket with her lantern being
• 47:17
  like hello Girl and we can now hear someone yelling
• 47:23
  like we can actually hear someone yelling like
• 47:24
  help me she goes further into the woods making
• 47:29
  her way to the archery building and the spooky
• 47:33
  spectator then turns on the lights of of the
• 47:38
  archery thing and they're like super bright so
• 47:40
  Brenda is like backing up being like what's going
• 47:44
  on who's there and she's backing up towards one
• 47:47
  of the targets And we cut away and hear a scream.
• 47:53
  Back in the counselor cabin, Alice is just chilling.
• 47:56
  Bill comes in from the rain, and Alice is like,
• 47:58
  I thought I heard Brenda scream, which I'm like,
• 48:00
  well, you must know Brenda really well if you
• 48:02
  know what her scream sounds like. There are so
• 48:04
  many dead people just, like, around, and nobody's
• 48:08
  discovering any of them? No, because it's dark,
• 48:10
  and there's rainstorm, and they're just doing
• 48:13
  their own thing. Okay. And she's like, I thought
• 48:15
  I heard Brenda scream and I saw the lights of
• 48:17
  the archery range go on. So they're like, okay,
• 48:20
  let's check it out. They head over to Brenda's
• 48:22
  cabin and they look in her bed and find a bloody
• 48:26
  ax, but no body, just an ax, like laying in her
• 48:29
  bed, like the ax is sleeping. Um, tuck it in.
• 48:33
  Yes. They head to the bath house and Alice insists
• 48:37
  they should call someone. They head over to the
• 48:40
  camp office, but it's locked. So Alice is just
• 48:42
  like, okay. So she grabs a big plank and just
• 48:45
  smashes in the window of the office, the office
• 48:47
  door to get into the office. It's metal. I'm
• 48:50
  like, you're supposed to work here for two more
• 48:51
  weeks and you just vandalize the building. Um,
• 48:54
  cause they don't know that anyone's dead yet.
• 48:57
  So it's like, you're really taking their concerned,
• 48:59
  I guess, but still they don't know that anything's
• 49:01
  wrong. She just think she heard someone scream,
• 49:03
  but she has no idea. Yeah. So they realized the
• 49:07
  phone is dead and they're like looking around,
• 49:09
  talking to each other as it does this cool shot
• 49:12
  where it kind of zooms out and follows the phone
• 49:14
  line. And then we see the spot where the phone
• 49:16
  line has been cut. They go to the truck that
• 49:19
  they came in on, but it won't start. And Alice
• 49:22
  is like, well, let's just walk to, to help. And
• 49:25
  Bill's like, well, the nearest town or place
• 49:27
  we can get help is 10 miles. Yeah. So he says,
• 49:32
  you know, I'm sure it's nothing. Let's just wait
• 49:34
  for Steve to get back. I'm sure it's fine. Back
• 49:37
  in the cop car with Steve and the cop. Um, we
• 49:40
  hear the cop ranting about Friday the 13th and
• 49:42
  a full moon and how there's more crime. Whenever
• 49:45
  there's a full moon, there's like more of everything.
• 49:49
  And Steve's just like, it's just coincidence.
• 49:52
  It's not science or it's not. you know, hullabaloo.
• 49:55
  It's just science. Coincidences happen. The cop
• 49:58
  gets called to a big car accident, so he has
• 50:01
  to drop Steve off kind of at the end of the road
• 50:03
  of Camp Crystal Lake, like close, but a little
• 50:06
  far. Everyone's just getting dropped off wherever
• 50:07
  it's convenient for people, I guess. Yeah. We
• 50:10
  hear another loon as Steve makes his way back
• 50:13
  to camp. This should be a drinking game where
• 50:15
  anytime you hear a loon call, you should drink
• 50:17
  and you'll get super drunk in this movie. Fun.
• 50:20
  It kind of has appeared to stop raining at this
• 50:23
  point. At the sign for Camp Crystal Lake, a light
• 50:28
  is shined right in Steve's face. And he's like,
• 50:31
  oh, hi. What are you doing out here in this mess?
• 50:34
  And we hear like a sharp violin. And Steve looks
• 50:37
  stunned. And then. We cut to a spooky spectator
• 50:42
  opening the generator cabin door and cutting
• 50:44
  the generator. So Bill lights up some old camping
• 50:48
  lanterns because they're like, oh, the generator
• 50:50
  must have run out of gas. So Bill leaves Alice
• 50:54
  as Alice is resting on the couch and he makes
• 50:57
  his way to the generator cabin, but realizes
• 51:00
  that the generator is still full. He puts like
• 51:03
  a stick in there and is like, okay, it's still
• 51:05
  full of gas. Sorry, Brenda? And then who's the
• 51:07
  man who just had the violin and then it cut?
• 51:10
  Steve, the sexy glasses guy. He's like the owner
• 51:13
  of the camp. Yes. Yeah. So Brenda and Steve,
• 51:15
  we haven't officially seen if they are like,
• 51:18
  deceased. Correct. OK. Bill realizes still full
• 51:21
  of gas. He's like, what the heck? At the cancer
• 51:24
  counselor cabin, Alice wakes up and decides to
• 51:26
  heat up some water to make some instant coffee,
• 51:28
  but you can sense since she's still like really
• 51:31
  uneasy. So she goes looking for bill. She gets
• 51:33
  to the generator cabin where the door is just
• 51:36
  wide open and she goes in, um, inspects things,
• 51:39
  but doesn't seem in there. And when she goes
• 51:41
  to close the door to leave the cabin, bill is
• 51:44
  stuck to the door by arrows with a sliced neck.
• 51:49
  Cool. Yeah. So he's just got a bunch of arrows
• 51:50
  and he's propped up on the door. And so she's
• 51:52
  freaking out. She screams her way back to the
• 51:55
  counselor cabin and realizes the door doesn't
• 51:57
  lock. So she uses a rope and puts it around a
• 52:02
  rafter and through the door handle, which I'm
• 52:03
  like, that's really smart to like keep it locked.
• 52:07
  And she stacks up like a bunch of chairs and
• 52:12
  like an old trunk and stuff in front of the door.
• 52:14
  And she's kind of just freaking out. She closes
• 52:16
  the curtains on the window, which I'm like closing
• 52:19
  the curtains isn't going to do much for you.
• 52:21
  She arms herself with a bat and heads into the
• 52:23
  kitchen looking for more weapons. She finds what
• 52:26
  I would consider, um, like an old timey fork
• 52:30
  roaster. It looks like the fork that's used in
• 52:32
  like, uh, a great green eggs and ham. Thank you.
• 52:36
  That's, I was like a Dr. Seuss. I've been listening
• 52:39
  to that a lot lately because Harvey's into it.
• 52:42
  And we hear another loon call as Brenda is thrown
• 52:46
  through the window of the kitchen. She's just
• 52:48
  got ropes tied around her and she did. We don't
• 52:50
  know how she died, but Alice is sobbing and she
• 52:53
  falls to the floor and starts to crawl away.
• 52:56
  And she sees a Jeep pull up to the camp and is
• 52:58
  like, Steve, yes. So she runs out from the Jeep
• 53:01
  and she's like, help, help, help, help. It's
• 53:03
  not Steve, girl. And she stops as she sees like
• 53:06
  a 50 something year old woman come out. And Alice
• 53:09
  is like, who are you? And she's like, Mrs. Four,
• 53:12
  he's an old friend of the Christie's and she
• 53:15
  tells Alice she used to work for the Crispies
• 53:17
  and that is probably just the storm making her
• 53:20
  scared. But Alice is like, please, please, please.
• 53:22
  Like these people that they're dead. Who are
• 53:25
  the Christie's? They're the owners of the camp.
• 53:27
  Yeah. Yeah. So Kevin, the owner, his parents
• 53:31
  last name was Christie. They were like the old
• 53:32
  owners and now Kevin, the owner, Kevin's the
• 53:35
  owner. I think Steve's the owner. Steve. Sorry,
• 53:38
  Steve. They all just have basic white people
• 53:40
  names. I don't know. And you don't spend a lot
• 53:43
  of time with each of these people, so it's hard
• 53:45
  to keep track. The person I recognize the most
• 53:48
  is already dead. So Alice pleads with Mrs. Voorhees,
• 53:52
  and she's like, it'll be OK. They head into the
• 53:56
  counselor cabin, and Mrs. Voorhees gasps when
• 53:58
  she sees Brenda on the ground. Mrs. Voorhees
• 54:01
  is like, Steve should have never opened this
• 54:03
  place. The counselors weren't paying attention
• 54:05
  when that young boy drowned. And so she kind
• 54:09
  of goes on this diatribe about how like she was
• 54:12
  a cook at the cabin and she walks up to Alice
• 54:15
  and she's like, he wasn't a good swimmer and
• 54:17
  he should have been watched every moment, but
• 54:19
  he wasn't. And she's like, we should leave. We
• 54:23
  should leave. Mrs. Voorhees is like, actually,
• 54:26
  it's not it's not necessary. And then Mrs. Voorhees
• 54:30
  hears a child calling for help. And she starts
• 54:35
  saying, Jason was my son, and it's his birthday.
• 54:39
  She was like, I couldn't let him open this place
• 54:41
  again, not after what happened. Then she's like,
• 54:45
  you let him drown. You never paid any attention.
• 54:48
  And she pulls out a knife and goes to attack
• 54:50
  Alice, but Alex gets the upper hand, knocking
• 54:53
  Mrs. Voorhees to the ground. Alice runs away
• 54:56
  to get in the Jeep, but she finds Annie's body
• 54:59
  in the passenger seat of the Jeep. So Annie did
• 55:02
  not make it clearly. Well, we already knew that,
• 55:05
  but there's her body. She runs back towards another
• 55:08
  cabin and Steve's body conveniently drops down
• 55:11
  swinging from a rafter of like a deck or something.
• 55:15
  And Alice screams and runs to the woods and Mrs.
• 55:18
  Voorhees is chasing after her and going, kill
• 55:20
  her, mommy, kill her. Don't let her get away,
• 55:23
  mommy. Don't let her live. And she's like, I
• 55:26
  won't, Jason, I won't. So she's like doing both
• 55:29
  voices. Yes. Like talking to herself. Alex makes,
• 55:33
  Alice makes her way to this barn type thing where
• 55:36
  they just happen to have like 25 shotguns lined
• 55:38
  up on a wall. I'm not even exaggerating with
• 55:40
  the amount. Mrs. Voorhees goes to the generator
• 55:43
  and gets it running again. So Alex is like, or
• 55:45
  Alice is like, Oh my gosh, the lights are back
• 55:47
  on. So she's trying to like be subtle, but you
• 55:49
  can't find the Like shells for the shotgun she
• 55:52
  finds a locked drawer, but she can't get it open
• 55:53
  as mrs. Voorhees comes inside Oh, and it just
• 55:57
  starts zooming in on her face more and she basically
• 55:59
  is just like kill her mommy kill her But mrs.
• 56:03
  Voorhees grabs the gun away from Alice before
• 56:05
  she can do anything So Alice is just throwing
• 56:07
  like random things at mrs. Voorhees like a ball
• 56:10
  of twine and whatever but that won't stop mrs.
• 56:13
  Voorhees she backs Alice into a corner and slaps
• 56:15
  her about four times just like a Good old fashioned
• 56:18
  slap, like back and forth, slap, slap, slap.
• 56:21
  They tussle around a little bit, but Alice is
• 56:24
  able to hit Mrs. Voorhees in the crotch and the
• 56:27
  face with a gun and runs away. Mrs. Voorhees
• 56:31
  runs down to the lake and as she's running, we
• 56:35
  see Alice had like hid behind a few stacked up
• 56:38
  rafts and runs the opposite direction after Mrs.
• 56:41
  Voorhees runs by her. We hear Mrs. Voorhees running.
• 56:46
  running and talking to herself more as we see
• 56:49
  Alice make her way back to the counselor cabin.
• 56:52
  Alice gets into the pantry and locks the door
• 56:55
  and soon she hears someone make their way into
• 56:57
  the counselor cabin as she holds the door of
• 57:00
  the pantry shut. She hears the person leave and
• 57:03
  so she starts to just like breathe and relax
• 57:05
  a little bit. Don't let your guard down. Yes,
• 57:08
  you can never. So we hear the pantry door handle
• 57:11
  rattle as Mrs. Voorhees starts to knock down
• 57:14
  the pantry door because she's got an axe. And
• 57:16
  so she chops open like a hole and stares through
• 57:18
  shining style and puts her hand through to unlock
• 57:21
  the pantry door as Alice arms herself with a
• 57:25
  good old cast iron skillet. The weapon of champions.
• 57:28
  Yes. Alice gets the best of Mrs. Voorhees by
• 57:31
  knocking her out with a pan. We see blood coming
• 57:34
  out of Mrs. Voorhees' head as Alice slowly walks
• 57:37
  past and runs down to the lake. At this point,
• 57:40
  Alice is very tired and a little injured, and
• 57:43
  we hear Mr. Loon call out again to Alice. We
• 57:48
  see a shadow creep up behind Alice, but Alice
• 57:52
  turns around just in time, holding an oar in
• 57:54
  front of her. face blocking the hit from like
• 57:58
  a machete that Mrs. Voorhees uses to try to slice
• 58:02
  her. So they get in a little tussle again and
• 58:05
  Mrs. Voorhees gets the upper hand for a second
• 58:06
  and is like shoving Alice's face into the sand.
• 58:09
  It was kind of like a classic girl fight. There's
• 58:12
  there's like some fighting and some hair pulling.
• 58:14
  And they're probably going like, yeah, exactly.
• 58:18
  Exactly. But it's like semi -tame girl fight,
• 58:21
  I've seen them go harder, you know? Yeah. So
• 58:24
  Alice is able to grab the machete and in slow
• 58:27
  motion, she decapitates Mrs. Voorhees. Whoa.
• 58:31
  And as Mrs. Voorhees' head flies off, we see
• 58:34
  Mrs. Voorhees' hands come up and clench into
• 58:36
  fists like, no, my plan! Boiled again. I would
• 58:42
  have gotten away with it if it weren't for you,
• 58:44
  meddling kids. Yes, as she falls to the ground.
• 58:49
  Stunned, Alice gets into a canoe and she pushes
• 58:52
  it out into the water as we fade into daylight.
• 58:56
  A police car pulls up to the cabin, which is
• 59:00
  like right by the lake, and they spot Alice out
• 59:02
  in the canoe. who had been sleeping out there.
• 59:05
  She awakens seeing the police at the water's
• 59:07
  edge and starts to smile and there's like this
• 59:08
  big swelling music so the police are like calling
• 59:11
  out to Alice but you don't hear the police calling
• 59:13
  because the music is starting to like swell like
• 59:15
  yay she made it it's all happy. She's so thankful
• 59:20
  that she made it through the night and she's
• 59:22
  like putting her hands through the water as she
• 59:24
  sits up and all of a sudden a creepy water boy
• 59:29
  pops out of the water and drags Alice into the
• 59:32
  water boy like a deformed water boy. Okay. We
• 59:38
  then see Alice awaken in a hospital bed and the
• 59:41
  nurse and doctor calm her down and let her know
• 59:43
  that everything is okay. So we assume this is
• 59:46
  only a dream. She asked the police if anyone
• 59:49
  else made it because there's a police officer
• 59:51
  in there and he's like, No, the officer says
• 59:54
  that one of her officers pulled her out of the
• 59:58
  lake. And she asks if the boy is still alive
• 1:00:02
  and they're like, We didn't find any boy. And
• 1:00:05
  so she's like, so then he's still out there.
• 1:00:09
  And she stares blankly into the distance as we
• 1:00:13
  fade back to the images of just a calm lake and
• 1:00:17
  then fade to black. And that's the end of the
• 1:00:21
  movie. Wait a second. So. So it must then in
• 1:00:29
  the other films in the franchise since there
• 1:00:31
  are so many it must be revealed That there's
• 1:00:35
  no one actually wearing a mask in the first movie,
• 1:00:37
  correct? Interesting. Yes Okay, so then they
• 1:00:41
  must have some way of explaining that essentially
• 1:00:43
  Jason is like a zombie kind of in the other movies.
• 1:00:47
  I think that's kind of what they're playing off
• 1:00:48
  of with water boy I think water boy is when I
• 1:00:51
  said water boy. It's not Adam Sandler popping
• 1:00:54
  out being like you need a drink. It's like a
• 1:00:57
  creepy boy that looks like he's like maybe 13
• 1:01:00
  with like. Because that's the scene that I've
• 1:01:02
  seen of this movie is when she's in the canoe
• 1:01:04
  and they're like, it looks like someone who was
• 1:01:06
  like burned alive is how I would describe it.
• 1:01:08
  Yeah, I think he's just got like an undead looking
• 1:01:10
  person. Yeah, water mark on him. But he also
• 1:01:14
  has like his head is kind of like larger than
• 1:01:16
  it would normally be in some of his facial features
• 1:01:18
  are a little like in spots. Yes. OK, so he's
• 1:01:23
  essentially like an undead entity. I'm assuming
• 1:01:27
  in these other movies where he comes back and
• 1:01:29
  wears like the mask, the goalie mask. Yes, he
• 1:01:31
  actually doesn't get the mask until the third
• 1:01:34
  movie. Oh, fun fact. Wow, so fun. Yeah. OK, that
• 1:01:40
  was like, so sorry, you said at hour thirty five,
• 1:01:43
  right? Mm hmm. OK, OK, you must have trimmed
• 1:01:46
  some fat that flew by. Yeah, well, it's a lot
• 1:01:49
  of like the kids talking and like clipping back
• 1:01:51
  and forth between it. So I tried to like not
• 1:01:53
  always be like. We're here and then we're here
• 1:01:55
  and then we're here. I tried to clump some stuff
• 1:01:57
  together. So it wasn't great. So much. You did
• 1:01:59
  great. You did great. OK. OK. Well, what are
• 1:02:04
  your thoughts, Cass? Yeah. I mean, I think I
• 1:02:07
  talked about a few of the things earlier with
• 1:02:10
  the fact that with older movies, it's like, oh,
• 1:02:14
  well, this has been done before. But you have
• 1:02:16
  to think about the fact that like this hadn't
• 1:02:17
  been done before. It was very pivotal. It was
• 1:02:19
  like one of the first like camp slashers. This
• 1:02:25
  was technically my first time seeing it through
• 1:02:27
  all the way I had seen a bunch of like pieces
• 1:02:29
  of it when it was on TV and things like that
• 1:02:31
  and I knew the ending and I knew it was the mom
• 1:02:36
  and I knew like I would say about half of the
• 1:02:40
  kills already but this was my first time watching
• 1:02:42
  it through top to bottom and it wasn't as bad
• 1:02:44
  as I thought it was gonna be because I don't
• 1:02:45
  usually like older horror movies like 70s horror
• 1:02:48
  movies at But I thought it was pretty good as
• 1:02:51
  far as like, they started killing people pretty
• 1:02:54
  fast and kept it pretty consistent as far as
• 1:02:57
  like killing people every so often. I felt like
• 1:03:00
  the part with Alice just by herself at the end
• 1:03:02
  was a little bit long. Like they could have expedited
• 1:03:05
  that a little bit, but I do think they kept a
• 1:03:09
  good pace with like killing people every so often.
• 1:03:11
  So it wasn't really, really long and then only
• 1:03:13
  kills at like the last 20 minutes or something,
• 1:03:16
  you know? Yeah. Yeah. And I feel like the ending
• 1:03:19
  was very interesting. I've already known way
• 1:03:24
  before I'd watched it ever. I feel it was one
• 1:03:26
  of those things that was spoiled, that it was
• 1:03:28
  the mom that was killer. Did you know that before
• 1:03:30
  we went into it, that it was the mom? I knew
• 1:03:32
  there was something with the mom, but I didn't
• 1:03:34
  know that she was straight up the one in the
• 1:03:36
  first movie. I thought Jason was gonna pop up
• 1:03:39
  with the mask and a machete and still do his
• 1:03:41
  thing. Yeah. So I think that if you had seen
• 1:03:45
  it for the first time, you'd be like, what? you
• 1:03:48
  know, if you hadn't been spoiled about it. So
• 1:03:52
  I'd be interested to watch that one with some
• 1:03:55
  of my friends who don't, most of my friends don't
• 1:03:57
  watch a lot of horror movies. So like a year
• 1:03:59
  ago we watched Psycho and they didn't know that
• 1:04:03
  it was like. Norman the whole time. And so they
• 1:04:06
  were like shocked. And so I was like, oh, I need
• 1:04:08
  to get you guys to watch some more horror movies
• 1:04:10
  where I know the ending, but like you clearly
• 1:04:12
  don't kind of thing. So it'd be interesting to
• 1:04:14
  like have this one be watched. And it's just
• 1:04:17
  kind of fun. You know, it's like old timey. There's
• 1:04:22
  only like one boob. I guess there's more boobs
• 1:04:25
  as the films progress, because that was something
• 1:04:27
  they talked about in the documentary, was that
• 1:04:30
  like the requirement was like boobs and, you
• 1:04:33
  know, like killing a kid every like 10 minutes
• 1:04:35
  or something. Must have boobs, must have death.
• 1:04:38
  And I guess that this is one of the first ones
• 1:04:40
  where it was the trope that like you have sex,
• 1:04:41
  you die, which has become like a thing that's,
• 1:04:44
  you know... Right. One of the epitomes of horror.
• 1:04:47
  Be promiscuous, you will die. Yes. Yeah. So that's
• 1:04:51
  kind of fun. And it's a classic. What I will
• 1:04:55
  say is I wish I was more one of those people
• 1:05:00
  who was like in love with what I would call like
• 1:05:04
  the big three baddies, which would be Freddy,
• 1:05:08
  Jason, and Michael. You know, like I feel a lot
• 1:05:11
  of horror people, they're really obsessed with
• 1:05:13
  it. So they'll have like a Freddie sweater and
• 1:05:16
  like, you know, uh, you know, the Jason mask
• 1:05:19
  and whatever. And it's like, uh, No, like give
• 1:05:24
  me like the midsummer dress or like, you know
• 1:05:29
  what I mean? Like random crap like that or like
• 1:05:31
  the hush mask. And that'll be my memorabilia
• 1:05:35
  that I really like or whatever. So it's hard
• 1:05:37
  because I feel like then I'm like a bad horror
• 1:05:39
  fan because I'm not obsessed with these male.
• 1:05:44
  old timey classic horror villains. But I do think
• 1:05:49
  it was entertaining. It was better than I thought
• 1:05:51
  it was going to be. And it was still a good time
• 1:05:54
  to watch, even though I knew the twist. So I
• 1:05:56
  would still say it's a scream. I don't think
• 1:05:58
  it's super, super scary. And it wasn't like jump
• 1:06:02
  scares when the people were killed because you
• 1:06:03
  knew it was going to happen. It was just like
• 1:06:05
  entertaining generally. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I really
• 1:06:10
  enjoyed your retelling. Was the Because it's
• 1:06:13
  camp, I'm assuming it's summer camp. So it's
• 1:06:15
  like summer. It's not like fall, right? Correct.
• 1:06:17
  Well, OK, it's summer the whole time. But when
• 1:06:19
  they show the shots of Alice being on the lake,
• 1:06:22
  there are definitely trees that are yellow and
• 1:06:24
  bright red. So I even said to Alex, I'm like,
• 1:06:27
  I thought it was supposed to be summer the kids
• 1:06:29
  are coming soon but these leaves are like they
• 1:06:31
  had to wrap up they had to wrap up the the shooting
• 1:06:33
  of the movie and they're like yeah it's september
• 1:06:36
  30th we just gotta get it done well it was a
• 1:06:38
  real boy scout camp so maybe it was like the
• 1:06:39
  only time they could get the camp was like probably
• 1:06:42
  the weekend after labor day weekend and the leaves
• 1:06:44
  had already started turning yeah i just i think
• 1:06:48
  it would be even more fun for this time of year
• 1:06:50
  if it was like a fall movie like i think that's
• 1:06:51
  a part of the reason why halloween is like Hits
• 1:06:54
  the way that it hits because I agree. I'm not
• 1:06:56
  like the Holy Trinity. I'm not super into being
• 1:06:59
  Freddie Freddie Jason and Michael Myers, I there's
• 1:07:04
  something about Michael Myers That's really funny
• 1:07:06
  to me because you know, like just like the his
• 1:07:08
  he's just so chill his energy Yeah, like I don't
• 1:07:12
  even know I think I've said aura a lot this episode
• 1:07:13
  probably more than I've ever said in my entire
• 1:07:16
  life but I do feel like Michael Michael Myers
• 1:07:18
  aura is just like really like goofy in like,
• 1:07:22
  it's supposed to be so scary. And I know it was
• 1:07:25
  scary when it came out, but he just like gives
• 1:07:26
  me goofy vibes that I'm just like, I almost think
• 1:07:29
  it's like satirical when I watch those movies.
• 1:07:31
  I think it's tricky. I think it's tricky for
• 1:07:33
  me too, because we grew up in a generation where
• 1:07:36
  Michael Myers as in like Austin Powers. Yeah,
• 1:07:39
  that's someone we're familiar with first. So
• 1:07:41
  when we hear Michael Myers scary, we're like,
• 1:07:43
  Wait, I used to think it was the same guy. I
• 1:07:47
  thought when people were referring to Michael
• 1:07:48
  Myers in Halloween, I thought they were referring
• 1:07:50
  to the actor being in the movie Halloween. I
• 1:07:54
  think everyone our age, millennial and younger,
• 1:07:57
  at one point thought Michael Myers from Halloween,
• 1:07:59
  the horror movie, was the voice of Shrek. Yeah.
• 1:08:03
  Put it in the comments if you thought that. Yeah.
• 1:08:06
  So yeah. But anyway, sorry I interrupted you.
• 1:08:09
  Um, yeah, no, like I think it sounds like it's
• 1:08:11
  like pretty fun. I love a villainous woman. I
• 1:08:17
  love when women are villains. I think that that's
• 1:08:20
  really fun and hard to pull off. I mean, this
• 1:08:22
  movie does sound like really gimmicky and like
• 1:08:24
  silly, but like, cause you know, it's older and
• 1:08:27
  they're all just kind of like that. Um, but to
• 1:08:29
  me, I think it takes a little something special
• 1:08:31
  and extra to make like a female villain be actually
• 1:08:35
  scary, which I know you said this isn't really
• 1:08:37
  that scary, but it does sound a little creepy
• 1:08:39
  in the way that it's like she clearly has some
• 1:08:41
  type of like mental illness or mental trauma
• 1:08:43
  where she's like has dissociative identity disorder
• 1:08:46
  or something or like couldn't recover from the
• 1:08:48
  grief of losing her child or whatever. Like I
• 1:08:50
  like to play with that a little bit more in my
• 1:08:51
  head. So I think that's like a little fun twist,
• 1:08:54
  a little fun take on it. Um, so yeah, I'll say
• 1:08:57
  it's a scream. Scream light. Yeah, it's definitely
• 1:09:01
  scream light. I feel like you could set it in
• 1:09:03
  like present day, but do it from Mrs. Voorhees
• 1:09:06
  perspective. And people would be like rooting
• 1:09:08
  for her. Like, yeah, those kids, all they do
• 1:09:11
  is have sex and they weren't taking care of your
• 1:09:13
  child. And people would be like, yeah. I feel
• 1:09:15
  like probably someone like Mike Flanney or someone
• 1:09:18
  like could come in and do like a really like
• 1:09:21
  cerebral, like deep. think piece about like,
• 1:09:25
  yeah, like a mother losing her child and how
• 1:09:29
  like these teens aren't, you know, they are given
• 1:09:32
  so much responsibility that they don't, you know,
• 1:09:34
  they aren't prepared for. Well, and I love a
• 1:09:36
  good revenge movie, you know, so. Revenge movies
• 1:09:40
  are fun and I really would love... a revenge
• 1:09:44
  movie we've talked about before that doesn't
• 1:09:46
  always revolve around sexual assault, and they
• 1:09:48
  tend to usually revolve around that type of plotline.
• 1:09:51
  Let's just have a revenge movie about a kid who
• 1:09:53
  died. About a dead child, please. Yeah, I know.
• 1:10:00
  I actually was thinking about it, Cassie, on
• 1:10:04
  my drive yesterday into work. I was like, I really
• 1:10:08
  want to... not write a horror movie, but more
• 1:10:12
  like a horror story, an original good horror
• 1:10:16
  story. Maggie, I think about that all the time.
• 1:10:20
  That you want to write an original horror story?
• 1:10:22
  Yes. I think it'd be fun to try to write a horror
• 1:10:24
  script, like screenplay or story or something
• 1:10:28
  like that. Now that we not only have been doing
• 1:10:31
  this, but because I've been a fan of horror now
• 1:10:33
  for so long, and like we've said before, I think
• 1:10:36
  it's hard to... surprise us for sure. I won't
• 1:10:40
  necessarily say impressed because I think both
• 1:10:42
  of us are pretty like chill when it comes to
• 1:10:45
  like we just like want to have fun with it and
• 1:10:46
  like you know whatever that means for you it
• 1:10:48
  doesn't necessarily mean it has to be a fun movie
• 1:10:50
  quote -unquote but like we just like want to
• 1:10:52
  be entertained and whatever and I was like I
• 1:10:54
  wonder if I could like write a unique and original
• 1:10:57
  story that hasn't really been done before because
• 1:10:59
  I I just really want to see original stuff. And
• 1:11:03
  I'm like, I wonder if I could do it. But I'm
• 1:11:06
  just thinking more like story, because I have
• 1:11:07
  no fucking idea how to write like a script or
• 1:11:09
  screenplay. I don't get how that works at all.
• 1:11:11
  I don't know how those are like structured, I
• 1:11:12
  guess. But yeah, like a story. Essentially, I
• 1:11:14
  just want to write like a creepy pasta. I want
• 1:11:16
  it to just be like a medium length horror story,
• 1:11:19
  not a book, but just like a medium length like
• 1:11:21
  little tale, a horror tale. Maybe we need to
• 1:11:24
  eat to do one for like a Patreon. We'd have to
• 1:11:27
  have it be a Patreon episode that's really far
• 1:11:30
  away, so we have months and months to work on
• 1:11:32
  it. After the 100th episode, we will put them
• 1:11:37
  on the Patreon episode. Oh, that's actually good,
• 1:11:40
  Cassie. For our 100th episode, we should do a
• 1:11:42
  bonus episode where we try writing our own horror
• 1:11:45
  movies from scratch. And then the Patreons, because
• 1:11:48
  they're honest with us, they'll let us know if
• 1:11:50
  it sucks or not. Oh, they'll let us know, and
• 1:11:52
  it will, certainly. Happy Halloween time, you
• 1:11:58
  guys. It's a really fun time of year. And it's
• 1:12:06
  the best time of the year. It's the best time
• 1:12:08
  of the year, Halloween. Let me know if you have
• 1:12:13
  any good costume ideas for a two -year -old.
• 1:12:15
  I don't know what to have my son be for Halloween,
• 1:12:18
  but I need to figure it out and... By the time
• 1:12:21
  this episode comes out, I'll still have a few
• 1:12:22
  weeks until Halloween, so it'll be good timing.
• 1:12:25
  And I just need help. Do you want it to be like
• 1:12:27
  a trio costume where he needs to coordinate with
• 1:12:30
  you and James or just an independent costume?
• 1:12:32
  It just needs to be an independent costume, but
• 1:12:33
  our neighborhood is like pretty involved for
• 1:12:36
  Halloween. Like they do like trunk or tree. They
• 1:12:38
  do regular trick or treating. They do like a
• 1:12:39
  little party. So like he needs to actually be
• 1:12:42
  in a costume. We can't just like be lame and
• 1:12:44
  show up with nothing and be like, give us candy.
• 1:12:47
  So I have plenty of costumes that I can just
• 1:12:49
  cycle through, but I need something for, for
• 1:12:51
  Harvey. I went to a bachelorette party where
• 1:12:54
  one of the nights we had to dress up as our favorite,
• 1:12:56
  Joe, because Alison Dodge, because her fiance's
• 1:12:59
  name is Joe. And so I had an average Joe's costume,
• 1:13:02
  like from dodge ball. And I was like, Oh, it'd
• 1:13:04
  be fun if like I dressed up as average Joe's
• 1:13:06
  and then I dressed Harvey up like the ball. I
• 1:13:07
  was going to say the ball. Like I just get it,
• 1:13:10
  but nobody would get that. Like nobody would
• 1:13:12
  understand that. Yeah, I was going to say you
• 1:13:14
  could dress him up like the Jason Bateman character
• 1:13:16
  that has like the spiky hair, the commentator.
• 1:13:19
  Oh, yeah. Wouldn't get that, probably. So what?
• 1:13:22
  What the fuck is his name? God, he's so funny.
• 1:13:25
  He's like FNA Cotton. Yeah. Oh, that's really,
• 1:13:29
  really good. Yeah. Nobody ever remembers his
• 1:13:30
  name. They just remember Cotton's name because
• 1:13:32
  he says it so much. Yeah, I know. I should watch.
• 1:13:35
  I'm gonna watch dodgeball after this. What a
• 1:13:37
  time. It's got our one of our horror kings, Justin
• 1:13:39
  Long in it. Oh, baby boy. When I just watched
• 1:13:44
  Barbarian, I hadn't watched Barbarian, I think,
• 1:13:46
  in at least two years. When I rewatched it, God,
• 1:13:50
  I fucking love that movie. I forgot how good
• 1:13:53
  Bill Skarsgard is in it, too. He's so creepy.
• 1:13:55
  I was also watching an interview with Zach Cracker
• 1:13:57
  saying part of the reason. One thing I love about
• 1:14:00
  Zach Cracker, I know that we jerk him off a lot
• 1:14:02
  on this podcast, deservingly and maybe not deservingly,
• 1:14:05
  but in my head, he is a God who can do nothing
• 1:14:08
  wrong. uh he was doing an interview and he was
• 1:14:11
  talking about like part of the reason why not
• 1:14:14
  only does it work because it's like obviously
• 1:14:15
  like men and he was doing all these like uh indicators
• 1:14:19
  he was calling them pings which he like read
• 1:14:21
  in a book was essentially like indicators or
• 1:14:24
  actions that men do that they don't realize that
• 1:14:26
  they're doing to make people uncomfortable because
• 1:14:28
  like they've never had to be on the receiving
• 1:14:30
  end or opposite end of like uncomfortable feelings
• 1:14:32
  towards other men like feeling unsafe yes and
• 1:14:35
  he was talking about how like all men give these
• 1:14:37
  away whether they know they're doing it or not
• 1:14:39
  so he's talking about how he's like writing that
• 1:14:41
  into Bill Skarsgard's character but he said another
• 1:14:43
  reason why it worked so well is because Bill
• 1:14:46
  Skarsgard is odd looking yes except you're like
• 1:14:50
  i love him he's sexy sexy sexy He is sexy, sexy
• 1:14:53
  in a hammerhead shark kind of way. But like,
• 1:14:57
  I do, I just thought it was so funny because
• 1:15:00
  it's like, we all know Bill Skarsgard is weird
• 1:15:01
  looking, but just like to hear Zach Kruger straight
• 1:15:03
  up be like, yeah, like obviously I cast him because
• 1:15:05
  he's a good actor, but he also is just fucking
• 1:15:07
  weird to look at. So like, I had to put him in
• 1:15:09
  there. It was like, oh yeah. We started this
• 1:15:13
  episode talking about Zach Kruger and we are
• 1:15:15
  ending this episode talking about Zach Kruger.
• 1:15:18
  Everyone's probably like, you need to shut the
• 1:15:20
  fuck up about Zach Cricker. People are like,
• 1:15:22
  we don't fucking care about him anymore. Ghosty
• 1:15:24
  Resident Evil supports Zach Cricker. Did you
• 1:15:28
  see that Anything But Ghosts has an official
• 1:15:30
  release date? I saw. Release month, May 2027.
• 1:15:33
  Yeah, I think there's going to be a lot of good
• 1:15:35
  stuff coming out 2027. I feel like 2026 has been
• 1:15:39
  pretty light. Like, I feel like the start of
• 1:15:40
  the year was really strong and then it's kind
• 1:15:42
  of lightened up a little bit with releases. Are
• 1:15:44
  you kidding me? I feel like it hasn't at all.
• 1:15:47
  It hasn't lightened up? May had back rooms and
• 1:15:51
  obsession. Yeah, that's the first half of the
• 1:15:53
  year. Are you on drugs, May? Are you pranking
• 1:15:57
  me, Cassie? The start of the year is January.
• 1:15:59
  First half of the year is January. No, January
• 1:16:03
  is the very first month of the year. First half
• 1:16:05
  would be the first six months of the year. Okay,
• 1:16:08
  well to me first half is like January to summer.
• 1:16:12
  Like January to summer and then summer to the
• 1:16:16
  new year. Okay, well then it still counts if
• 1:16:19
  it's January to summer. because i don't know
• 1:16:21
  yeah but summer starts in may i don't know i
• 1:16:24
