- 1:45Speaker 2: I don't know, but apparently because it hasn't rained in

- 1:55Speaker 1: Sorry for every flairl you see.
- 1:58Speaker 2: Today. On another installment of marsh Labness, we're discussing our
- 2:01Speaker 2: Deep Cut Pick, the resurrected from nineteen ninety one, a
- 2:04Speaker 2: movie that shows us that you don't have to dislocate
- 2:07Speaker 2: your shoulder to remove a straight jacket. Jesus, let's see
- 2:12Speaker 2: where this lands in the nightmare index. Let's talk about
- 2:19Speaker 2: what we've recently watched since you and I obviously lived
- 2:22Speaker 2: together spoiler alert, we watch a lot of the same things.
- 2:28Speaker 2: Do we watch now? We have two screeners for movies
- 2:32Speaker 2: that we haven't watched yet. But we did watch some
- 2:36Speaker 2: things in the theater. One thing in the theater, two
- 2:38Speaker 2: things in the theater. I can't remember. What is list?
- 2:42Speaker 1: What is life? You and I watched one thing in
- 2:45Speaker 1: the theater and we watched a new thing at home.
- 2:47Speaker 2: Mm hmmm hmm. What was the last pre animator? Oh,
- 2:50Speaker 2: I've watched so much. Oh Jesus Christ, scream seven. Yeah,
- 2:55Speaker 2: gotta talk about screams like I want to figure out
- 2:57Speaker 2: a way to work. Work this movie into the format
- 3:01Speaker 2: this or into the show. But it's just not gonna
- 3:03Speaker 2: happen Scream seven. Okay, listen, everybody listen. I took to
- 3:08Speaker 2: social media gave my qualms with the movie, and this
- 3:12Speaker 2: is exactly why I don't talk poorly about movies, because
- 3:15Speaker 2: everyone was losing their fucking shit over my real problems
- 3:20Speaker 2: and issues with this movie. And this is gonna be
- 3:22Speaker 2: spoilers because I have to talk about this movie. It's
- 3:24Speaker 2: gonna be in a little fucking description. We're going into
- 3:26Speaker 2: spoilers on Scream seven. If you have not watched it,
- 3:29Speaker 2: go forward. Everyone lost their mind. Two out of five.
- 3:33Speaker 2: Not a good movie. It's not the guy you showed
- 3:36Speaker 2: me on TikTok. Explaining the possibility of what the ending
- 3:38Speaker 2: could be makes a lot of sense, But we shouldn't
- 3:41Speaker 2: have to frankenstein that ending together.
- 3:45Speaker 1: Yeah if what he because like, it didn't in any
- 3:48Speaker 1: way ring untrue. It felt very in line with what
- 3:53Speaker 1: was happening. However, if I need a random dude on
- 3:57Speaker 1: the internet to make it make more sense for me,
- 4:00Speaker 1: they didn't write it well enough.
- 4:02Speaker 2: No, uh man, let's see what problems did I have? Okay,
- 4:06Speaker 2: So first off, the opening was great, but didn't make
- 4:10Speaker 2: any sense because the only reason it happened was to
- 4:14Speaker 2: get Gail there, who wasn't even in the final act
- 4:17Speaker 2: of the movie. She wasn't there for the big showdown.
- 4:20Speaker 1: So why did they didn't even seem to acknowledge that
- 4:23Speaker 1: Gail was even around for any of it to begin with.
- 4:25Speaker 1: It's like, oh, well, she's part of the originals, that's
- 4:28Speaker 1: why she has to be there. Yeah, but they never
- 4:30Speaker 1: once mentioned that they even gave a shit that she
- 4:33Speaker 1: was there.
- 4:33Speaker 2: No, in their whole you know monologue at the end,
- 4:37Speaker 2: they don't mention her. She's not there, so the and
- 4:40Speaker 2: that's why I said, it has nothing to do with
- 4:42Speaker 2: the movie, and everyone's like it was mentioned twice. Yeah,
- 4:44Speaker 2: I know, I'm saying in the grand scheme of things,
- 4:48Speaker 2: it doesn't tie into the movie in any way. So
- 4:50Speaker 2: that was my biggest problem. Like, sure, it was cool. Also,
- 4:53Speaker 2: I thought it was supposed to be an Airbnb resembling
- 4:57Speaker 2: the house. I don't know if that's actually the case anymore,
- 4:59Speaker 2: cause I guess it was.
- 5:00Speaker 1: It sounds like it was, but also maybe it wasn't.
- 5:03Speaker 2: Because he said the guy in the beginning was like, oh,
- 5:05Speaker 2: they got everything down to the right detail, like indicating
- 5:08Speaker 2: because you know, it was obviously in Airbnb because they
- 5:10Speaker 2: were saying there. But so it was very strange. And
- 5:13Speaker 2: then those people in the in the cold open were
- 5:15Speaker 2: not in the rest of the movie obviously because they died.
- 5:17Speaker 2: Oh yeah, usually people in the cold opens are in
- 5:20Speaker 2: the well I mean, okay, besides Casey, but you know, they.
- 5:24Speaker 1: Were irrelevant in the sense that those deaths tend to
- 5:26Speaker 1: get brought up, like you know, Casey dying, She's brought
- 5:31Speaker 1: up throughout the movie.
- 5:33Speaker 2: They don't bring the start.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Of the events. There's a reason she got killed.
- 5:38Speaker 2: They don't bring those people up. Ever. Again, they don't
- 5:41Speaker 2: mention it except for, oh, we burned down the house
- 5:44Speaker 2: to get Gail here.
- 5:45Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, the kid, like the people that get killed
- 5:48Speaker 1: at beginning of Scream two, they I believe were also
- 5:51Speaker 1: students at the school. But it was supposed to kick
- 5:53Speaker 1: start off the idea that the movies made me do it. Yeah,
- 5:58Speaker 1: the third one we had Oh my god, I'm blinking
- 6:01Speaker 1: on the opening of the third movie right now.
- 6:03Speaker 2: It's the one reason traffic.
- 6:04Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, yeah, Chris obviously weird Cotton. So Cotton's kind
- 6:08Speaker 1: of self explanatory. The fourth one has a like movie
- 6:11Speaker 1: in a movie in a movie making the best about
- 6:14Speaker 1: stab and then the last girl who gets attacked is
- 6:17Speaker 1: a friend of the girls in the movie, like they're
- 6:20Speaker 1: they're all related. These are people who just happened to
- 6:22Speaker 1: be at Stew's house to really heavily imply it Stew.
- 6:24Speaker 1: But then you immediately reveal Stu in video, and then
- 6:28Speaker 1: it's like, okay, well, then it's clearly not Stu.
- 6:31Speaker 2: Well, and also, they announced Matthew Lillard being in its
- 6:34Speaker 2: far before it released, and you can immediately rule him
- 6:36Speaker 2: out because if you say he's going to be in
- 6:38Speaker 2: the movie, we're not about to unmask him as the killer.
- 6:41Speaker 2: That's that's insane. So uh, there was literally no reason
- 6:45Speaker 2: to bring Stu back. I wanted that madness in five.
- 6:47Speaker 2: I did, even though it didn't make sense, wouldn't have
- 6:49Speaker 2: been a crowd pleaser. I was like, it would be
- 6:52Speaker 2: just fucking do it. And then they didn't do it
- 6:54Speaker 2: and things are falling, so bringing him back now I
- 6:57Speaker 2: didn't give a shit. I did not care. I was like,
- 6:59Speaker 2: this just stupid, it's gonna be AI and it was
- 7:04Speaker 2: I don't know, man, there was some cool kills, but
- 7:06Speaker 2: then the whole ending where Sydney can't get in a car,
- 7:10Speaker 2: so she just starts running and running for miles and
- 7:13Speaker 2: every and go get the keys, and every time she
- 7:16Speaker 2: stops to answer the text messages, but doesn't fucking call
- 7:20Speaker 2: the cops. What are we doing here? Your husband? Like
- 7:22Speaker 2: I know her husband at that point was you know,
- 7:24Speaker 2: dying on the floor, So.
- 7:25Speaker 1: He doesn't know that.
- 7:26Speaker 2: She doesn't know that. That's what I'm saying, You don't
- 7:28Speaker 2: call him. No one's wondering where the fucking chief of
- 7:30Speaker 2: police of the.
- 7:32Speaker 1: Where did all the police go? It's this shit's happening
- 7:34Speaker 1: at your house, and no one fucking knows one where
- 7:37Speaker 1: the chief of police is. And two not one cop
- 7:41Speaker 1: has come to check on you. And the chief of
- 7:42Speaker 1: police has been missing for hours. Literally it was daylight
- 7:46Speaker 1: when this time started. This was hours prior to the
- 7:48Speaker 1: climax of the movie. No one fucking noticed.
- 7:52Speaker 2: And everyone's in court not quarantine, uh, curfew, Yeah, so
- 7:58Speaker 2: cops should be littered in the st And then the
- 8:02Speaker 2: reveal is like, oh, you're that guy from the psych
- 8:06Speaker 2: Word Okay, Oh and it's the neighbor uh huh.
- 8:11Speaker 1: And like I said, the explanation that we got after
- 8:14Speaker 1: the fact for the guy on TikTok who's explaining it.
- 8:17Speaker 1: It made more sense that way, And but I think
- 8:21Speaker 1: it didn't land as well for you and me because
- 8:24Speaker 1: you know, it's supposed to be a call out to
- 8:25Speaker 1: the fans who feel like they're owed their legacy characters
- 8:30Speaker 1: and that these people owe their lives and careers to
- 8:33Speaker 1: us the fans.
- 8:34Speaker 2: They don't, And that's how the neighbor felt.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Yeah, and like, once you take that into consideration, that
- 8:41Speaker 1: totally makes sense. You and I never felt that way
- 8:44Speaker 1: about the legacy characters, Like would it be cool? Yeah,
- 8:47Speaker 1: Sidney wasn't in the last one. The reason she wasn't
- 8:50Speaker 1: in it, Yeah, that sucked, But I still had fun
- 8:54Speaker 1: with the movie. And I don't feel like any characters
- 8:58Speaker 1: specifically owed. It's really fun when they come back, But
- 9:01Speaker 1: I'm like, you don't. Once you do lose all the
- 9:04Speaker 1: original characters, even if it's like the original characters from
- 9:08Speaker 1: the fourth film on or something like that, that's fine,
- 9:11Speaker 1: But once you lose everybody and you're completely clean slate,
- 9:14Speaker 1: that does start to feel like we've lost the point
- 9:17Speaker 1: or like lost the franchise. But you know, I've never
- 9:20Speaker 1: felt like they had to be in these movies, Like, well,
- 9:23Speaker 1: Nev Campbell is selfish if she doesn't show up, No,
- 9:26Speaker 1: she's not.
- 9:27Speaker 2: She want she wants to get paid and she should
- 9:29Speaker 2: get paid.
- 9:30Speaker 1: And also it's her business if she's like I, you know,
- 9:33Speaker 1: I love the franchise, but I want to do other
- 9:35Speaker 1: things that is also your business.
- 9:38Speaker 2: So I don't know, didn't hit for me. What's crazy
- 9:41Speaker 2: it is is it's literally the worst rated on Letterbox.
- 9:44Speaker 2: I know that's what I use. That's my metric. It's
- 9:47Speaker 2: two point four beating out Screen three at a two
- 9:50Speaker 2: point nine, so the worst rated. And I'm coming on
- 9:54Speaker 2: the internet to be like but I don't like this.
- 9:56Speaker 2: Everyone's like, okay, guys, it's wow. This is why I
- 10:01Speaker 2: don't talk bad about movies like on TikTok or social media.
- 10:04Speaker 2: I think this is exactly why. But John did tell
- 10:07Speaker 2: me that it was engagement, so I was like, yeah,
- 10:10Speaker 2: I guess that's fair, but I don't. I don't like
- 10:12Speaker 2: to be that guy.
- 10:13Speaker 1: And it's also possible to have it different when it
- 10:15Speaker 1: comes to movies, Like there's plenty of things that yes,
- 10:19Speaker 1: feel you with a lot of rage and like, especially
- 10:22Speaker 1: when it comes to people in the real world, Yeah,
- 10:25Speaker 1: that can bring out some bad feelings. There's a way
- 10:27Speaker 1: to talk to people without outright insulting strangers, especially when
- 10:31Speaker 1: it comes to movies. You didn't make the movie, Relax,
- 10:35Speaker 1: you know, if you like it, that's fine.
- 10:37Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Do I think Hell Razor is a terrible movie? Yes?
- 10:42Speaker 1: Am I gonna shot on you for not liking it? No,
- 10:45Speaker 1: because I like an In fact, I didn't. You didn't
- 10:47Speaker 1: make it. I don't care if you like it.
- 10:49Speaker 2: I in fact will say I am happy that it
- 10:51Speaker 2: works for you, because it does not work for me.
- 10:53Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm a big fan of the Ghost Faith franchise. Here.
- 10:59Speaker 1: I mean, I've got like, we've got ghost Face all
- 11:02Speaker 1: over the place.
- 11:03Speaker 2: And I couldn't see him in there. Do it again?
- 11:05Speaker 2: Put him a little closer there you go.
- 11:07Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, I'm a big fan of ghost Face.
- 11:10Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of Scream I've I've been since
- 11:13Speaker 1: it terrified me as a child, the ghost Face. You
- 11:18Speaker 1: didn't like us talking, but yeah, I'm sorry. This was
- 11:24Speaker 1: the first time. And I'm really easy to please. Like,
- 11:26Speaker 1: I am not one of the people who doesn't like
- 11:28Speaker 1: Scream three. I like Scream three.
- 11:30Speaker 2: I think I think I still gave that a three.
- 11:33Speaker 2: Like it's still a good movie. It's just the weakest
- 11:36Speaker 2: of the bunch until this one.
- 11:38Speaker 1: Yeah, No, I still have fun with it. The first
- 11:41Speaker 1: three are very well placed in my heart, and but
- 11:47Speaker 1: this was just like, uh that the action was there,
- 11:50Speaker 1: sure that the kills were fun. We got some wonkey
- 11:52Speaker 1: cgi and there, which was a bummer, but uh, yeah,
- 11:55Speaker 1: I didn't care about anybody, and I just like by
- 11:59Speaker 1: the time we got to the end of like, I
- 12:00Speaker 1: can't even imagine what this reveal is gonna build up to,
- 12:03Speaker 1: because they've just been threatening to kill her a bunch
- 12:05Speaker 1: and usually it's like you're gonna learn this lesson or
- 12:08Speaker 1: some shit like that.
- 12:09Speaker 2: Nope. Yeah, and then what's their faces from five and six?
- 12:14Speaker 2: I don't even know their names. I can't remember the
- 12:17Speaker 2: fucking Randy's niece and Trevor whatever his name is. They're
- 12:21Speaker 2: back for now.
- 12:22Speaker 1: Trevor's the boyfriend in the fourth made.
- 12:24Speaker 2: Whatever they're back for. Honestly no reason at all. Everyone
- 12:29Speaker 2: else dies they somehow sort of.
- 12:31Speaker 1: It's just and it was their fault.
- 12:32Speaker 2: Have the kids died, it was their fault because they
- 12:34Speaker 2: all had them meet up and they were supposed to
- 12:36Speaker 2: be locked down. Just you know, I'm I'm just so upset.
- 12:40Speaker 2: Not upset, but I guess I'm disappointed. I'm a father
- 12:43Speaker 2: here in.
- 12:44Speaker 1: Ken I'm mad. I'm just disappointed.
- 12:46Speaker 2: And Kevin Williamson because I know he's so much better
- 12:48Speaker 2: than that. He's written so many good things. And then
- 12:51Speaker 2: I don't know, but nevertheless, not for me. If it
- 12:54Speaker 2: worked for you, that's great. Like I don't care, that's fine.
- 12:58Speaker 2: I'm not gonna be upset that it work for someone.
- 13:00Speaker 2: But my favorite thing that is happening right now is
- 13:02Speaker 2: everyone sharing their scream rankings. Nothing is more toxic than
- 13:05Speaker 2: when someone shares their rankings to go to the comment
- 13:08Speaker 2: section like this is the worst ratings ever, Like it's
- 13:12Speaker 2: my rating. I always go, hey, I don't agree with this,
- 13:16Speaker 2: but I mean, you know, I just always try to
- 13:18Speaker 2: be neutral. There's no reason to be like, this is
- 13:20Speaker 2: the worst rating I've ever seen of the franchise. It's
- 13:23Speaker 2: not yours. Throw yours in the comments and leave it
- 13:26Speaker 2: at that. Fucking go away.
- 13:28Speaker 1: Yeah, I can't imagine these strong opinions. I would get
- 13:31Speaker 1: on these if someone actually bothered to read my Marvel's
- 13:34Speaker 1: movies ranked Because it's chaotic to Thunderbolts.
- 13:38Speaker 2: Is number one.
- 13:39Speaker 1: It's not for me, it is, it's number two.
- 13:42Speaker 2: Thunderbolts number one. Guardians of the Galaxy was number one
- 13:45Speaker 2: for years until Thunderbolts.
- 13:47Speaker 1: But it is absolute chaos and movies that other people
- 13:49Speaker 1: absolutely hate it.
- 13:50Speaker 2: I loved to and whatever, and just to piss anybody
- 13:52Speaker 2: off at this point because it's I guess it's fun.
- 13:57Speaker 2: Scream five whatever, Scream from twenty twenties, that's my favorite one.
- 14:01Speaker 2: Everyone can rage in my Spotify comments. There you go,
- 14:05Speaker 2: and the original screen is like number five out of seven. Sorry,
- 14:09Speaker 2: doesn't work for me. And that's not even This is
- 14:12Speaker 2: not even raised Bay. This is legitimate, real life. You've
- 14:15Speaker 2: seen my scream list and it makes you sad every time. Anyways,
- 14:19Speaker 2: we talked about this movie for long enough. Let's just
- 14:21Speaker 2: talk about the other big one that we saw, and
- 14:23Speaker 2: then I'll rattle off my cult movie challenges and then
- 14:25Speaker 2: we'll move on.
- 14:25Speaker 1: Oh wow, I don't get to share any of my watches.
- 14:27Speaker 1: You just never leave room for me to share any
- 14:29Speaker 1: of my recent watches.
- 14:30Speaker 2: Do all right, go ahead, rattle them off, Thank you,
- 14:32Speaker 2: rapid Fire.
- 14:33Speaker 1: Go. First of all, I watched Thief with James Kahn.
- 14:37Speaker 1: It was amazing. I was genuinely so surprised. Thief from
- 14:42Speaker 1: nineteen eighty.
- 14:42Speaker 2: One Blonde Eyebrows.
- 14:46Speaker 1: Noo, I'm getting there, you said, rattle them off?
- 14:49Speaker 2: Oh sorry, I thought it was yeah, bad, my bad,
- 14:51Speaker 2: go ahead.
- 14:52Speaker 1: I also watched Hunt for the Wilder People, which is
- 14:56Speaker 1: an early Taikawa Titi movie with Sam Neal in it.
- 14:58Speaker 1: I highly recommend that one. I almost cried, thought that there's touching.
- 15:03Speaker 1: And then I watched a movie from nineteen eighty five
- 15:06Speaker 1: called The New Kids, directed by the same guy who
- 15:08Speaker 1: directed the original Friday the Thirteenth, Sehn S.
- 15:10Speaker 2: Cunningham.
- 15:12Speaker 1: Holy crap, that's got Lori Laughlin in it and James
- 15:15Speaker 1: Spader that's his name, And they'd named the actor who
- 15:18Speaker 1: plays Lori Laughlin's brother in it. But he did that
- 15:22Speaker 1: movie and then he was like, I'm done with acting forever.
- 15:25Speaker 1: Oh okay, goodbye. It's chaotic, So straight is it?
- 15:31Speaker 2: Chaotic? Neutral? Chaotic evil? What is it?
- 15:34Speaker 1: It's just it's just pure chaos. Like guys in a
- 15:38Speaker 1: small town. When these set of siblings move in with
- 15:41Speaker 1: their uncle after their parents died, these guys decide they're
- 15:44Speaker 1: gonna sleep with that new girl, and the new girls
- 15:46Speaker 1: like pass hard, pass on all of that. So then
- 15:50Speaker 1: they're like, okay, so instead we're gonna harass you and
- 15:53Speaker 1: commit vandalism and violence and uh like literally get all
- 15:58Speaker 1: the way up to murder because you just won't go
- 16:00Speaker 1: on dates with us, Like.
- 16:03Speaker 2: Was that? Was there any sexual assault?
- 16:06Speaker 1: They tried to sexually assault her multiple times, but one
- 16:09Speaker 1: time they covered her in lighter fluid as a method
- 16:13Speaker 1: with which to be like, well, we could sexually assault
- 16:15Speaker 1: you or to light you on fire.
- 16:16Speaker 2: Like what year was this?
- 16:17Speaker 1: Nineteen?
- 16:18Speaker 2: So this is like like a yeah, so this is
- 16:20Speaker 2: like I spit on your grave. But without all of
- 16:21Speaker 2: the graphic sexual assault.
- 16:23Speaker 1: You never got to the sexual assault. Blessedly, the most
- 16:27Speaker 1: nute anybody gets is James Spader is in his tiny
- 16:31Speaker 1: blue speedo underwear. Platinum blonde with platinum eyebrows. Was really
- 16:36Speaker 1: jarring with his strong eye contact. I was like Jesus Christ.
- 16:40Speaker 1: They wanted him to make like look fucking crazy and
- 16:44Speaker 1: as someone who lives in Florida, it's set in Florida.
- 16:48Speaker 1: One of the funniest things about it is the number
- 16:50Speaker 1: of Floridians in the letterbox reviews going I live in
- 16:54Speaker 1: the southern areas of Florida and can attest that the
- 16:59Speaker 1: Southern boys are this fucking crazy.
- 17:02Speaker 2: That's true.
- 17:02Speaker 1: Yeah, so you're not wrong. Definitely a wild ride. She
- 17:06Speaker 1: just like, what the hell's going on?
- 17:08Speaker 2: All right? What's that called? Never back down? No?
- 17:10Speaker 1: The new kid, never going back? And if you feel
- 17:12Speaker 1: like you want to see James Spader be the hero,
- 17:15Speaker 1: you can also watch him in Tough Turf, which is
- 17:20Speaker 1: him playing the new kid dealing with bullies, also random
- 17:25Speaker 1: acts of violence. It's he was having a weird year.
- 17:27Speaker 1: I guess all.
- 17:30Speaker 2: Right, rattling these off as quickly as I can. I
- 17:32Speaker 2: had three movies from AV Entertainment that they sent over
- 17:35Speaker 2: House of Darkness from twenty twenty two with Justin Long
- 17:37Speaker 2: Kate Bosworth. Fucking love this movie. I really enjoyed it.
- 17:42Speaker 2: It doesn't have great ratings. Gave it to three and
- 17:44Speaker 2: a half. Loved the vibes. Kate Bosworth was mesmerizing, Justin
- 17:48Speaker 2: Long was Justin Long. Stickman's Hollow is a found footed
- 17:52Speaker 2: GPOV styly movie, A lot of fun, kind of takes
- 17:57Speaker 2: the established format of POV and the something a little
- 18:00Speaker 2: bit different with it. Really enjoyed that four out of five.
- 18:04Speaker 2: Ghost Train also has about the same ratings as House
- 18:07Speaker 2: of Darkness and to was it Korean right, Korean kind
- 18:11Speaker 2: of anthology esque story? What did you give that one?
- 18:16Speaker 2: Three and a half?
- 18:16Speaker 1: Maybe think I give it a three and a half.
- 18:18Speaker 1: I said it. I didn't rate it or write a
- 18:21Speaker 1: review on it, but I did say it felt very
- 18:23Speaker 1: much like telling scary stories when you're a kid to
- 18:26Speaker 1: your friends that it felt very much like that kind
- 18:29Speaker 1: of storytelling where it's very short, very to the point,
- 18:33Speaker 1: but it's something spooky happens.
- 18:35Speaker 2: And woo yeah at haunting Imagery, very spooky shit. Gave
- 18:39Speaker 2: that one a four as well. We watched it to
- 18:41Speaker 2: the original Death Name, which honestly had an incredible premise,
- 18:45Speaker 2: but I think it's a lack of budget kind of
- 18:47Speaker 2: held it back just at love.
- 18:49Speaker 1: To see what they did with a full budget.
- 18:51Speaker 2: I would have. Honestly, It's one of the rare times
- 18:53Speaker 2: where I wanted more movie. Typically it was like eighty
- 18:56Speaker 2: seven eighty two minutes, that's my sweet spot. But I
- 18:58Speaker 2: was like, you know, I would have liked to see
- 18:59Speaker 2: this fleshed out just a little bit more.
- 19:01Speaker 1: Yeah, because they had a really cool premise going and
- 19:06Speaker 1: I just don't think they have the time or the
- 19:08Speaker 1: money to get more into it or to flesh it
- 19:10Speaker 1: out more, which is fine, but which is unfortunate because
- 19:13Speaker 1: everything else they had was going really well for it,
- 19:15Speaker 1: like we were both engaged and like, oh, what's happening?
- 19:19Speaker 2: Good stuff? And that's a two be originals, so you
- 19:21Speaker 2: can catch that on to B. I went to the
- 19:23Speaker 2: theater for a sneak preview of Dolly last week and
- 19:27Speaker 2: loved it. It is definitely for a very specific audience,
- 19:30Speaker 2: though it is a love letter to seventies grindhouse kind
- 19:34Speaker 2: of exploitation film, so if you're not into that, would
- 19:37Speaker 2: not recommend four out of five for me. It's also
- 19:40Speaker 2: shot on sixteen millimeter. Sean William Scott and Ethan Suppley
- 19:43Speaker 2: are in it, so do with that information what you will.
- 19:46Speaker 2: They were fucking amazing and that was a lot of fun.
- 19:49Speaker 2: And then from the corrections department, Eyes Without a Face
- 19:52Speaker 2: was never actually on Chiller Theater. I must have confused
- 19:56Speaker 2: it for Fiend Without a Face for my cult movie challenge,
- 20:00Speaker 2: because I went to go write my review for Eyes
- 20:01Speaker 2: without a Face and saw that it wasn't you know,
- 20:03Speaker 2: I wanted to quote the Season number an episode for
- 20:06Speaker 2: Chiller Theater, a week on the Cult Movie Challenge and
- 20:08Speaker 2: couldn't find it, so I had to do another movie
- 20:10Speaker 2: and I ended up watching the Original Mummy Boris Karloff,
- 20:14Speaker 2: and holy shit, I didn't know that man could act
- 20:17Speaker 2: like that. I've only seen him grunting and groaning as
- 20:19Speaker 2: Monsters hot take on the Universal Monsters. So far, that
- 20:24Speaker 2: is my favorite. Gave it a four and a half.
- 20:26Speaker 2: Mummy Is it was so good. And then what I
- 20:31Speaker 2: watched this week was Shivers Cronenberg. It was can Exploitation week,
- 20:37Speaker 2: and that's you can go read my review because I'm
- 20:39Speaker 2: not going to get into it. But Shivers was definitely
- 20:41Speaker 2: a movie I saw with my eyes. Definitely David Cronenberg.
- 20:46Speaker 2: You can see where because that was like his first
- 20:48Speaker 2: movie with the budget. I think he did one movie
- 20:51Speaker 2: before that, so this was his first movie with a budget,
- 20:54Speaker 2: and you can see where he went from to do
- 20:57Speaker 2: like scanners and video drome and all that stuff. It
- 21:00Speaker 2: was a little too weird for me and a little
- 21:02Speaker 2: too sexually charged.
- 21:05Speaker 1: Yeah I've read the blur, but I was like, have fun.
- 21:07Speaker 2: I'm out. Yeah, three out of five, but yeah, that's
- 21:10Speaker 2: all I got. And then we saw The Bride. I
- 21:12Speaker 2: don't know what the fuck to do with that movie.
- 21:13Speaker 1: Oh my god, I had so much fun with it.
- 21:15Speaker 2: I don't it's either I told Michael. I was like,
- 21:18Speaker 2: it's either a complete illogical, nonsense mumbo jumbo or it's
- 21:22Speaker 2: actually one of the most brilliant films of the twenty
- 21:26Speaker 2: first century.
- 21:27Speaker 1: Well, and I think what we said was, you know,
- 21:30Speaker 1: like which everyone's been saying, is like Maggie Gillenhall really
- 21:34Speaker 1: swung for the fences definitely and got really weird with it,
- 21:38Speaker 1: like she did not hold herself back at all, and.
- 21:42Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
- 21:43Speaker 1: I and it felt like you felt that everybody was
- 21:47Speaker 1: in it and having a good time on set, and
- 21:50Speaker 1: that really translates. And Jesse Buckley gave an amazing performance.
- 21:55Speaker 1: Like I said, the only thing that really was like
- 21:57Speaker 1: off putting for me was the possess aspect.
- 22:01Speaker 2: That's fair.
- 22:02Speaker 1: But other than that, like, I had fun with it.
- 22:04Speaker 1: I really liked how I know, it's really in your
- 22:08Speaker 1: face feminism where it's like really obvious points they're trying
- 22:13Speaker 1: to hit, But I liked that they said it, and
- 22:15Speaker 1: they said it through the lens of someone who just
- 22:18Speaker 1: doesn't have a shit left to give.
- 22:20Speaker 2: I'll tell you what, it's the exact story I wanted
- 22:23Speaker 2: from the Bride of Frankenstein, where you know, yeah, it's
- 22:26Speaker 2: not just we're gonna give you this person. Frankenstein's like,
- 22:29Speaker 2: I am so fought well in this movie, you know,
- 22:32Speaker 2: it's not Frankenstein's monster. He's just taking the name Frankenstein.
- 22:35Speaker 2: They call him frank He's like, I'm so lonely. Helped me.
- 22:39Speaker 2: That's what I wanted. And then how they come together
- 22:42Speaker 2: is just everything I wanted from the Bride of Frankenstein.
- 22:44Speaker 1: Well, yeah, and and her calling out the weirdness of
- 22:47Speaker 1: the fact that she didn't ask for this, they just
- 22:50Speaker 1: did it to her and now now she's his property,
- 22:54Speaker 1: Like what what? Because we were talking about that with
- 22:57Speaker 1: watching the because we rewatched the original going to see it. Yeah, Franken, Yeah,
- 23:03Speaker 1: it's really messed up that a bunch of dudes got
- 23:05Speaker 1: together and thought, yeah, we'll make a lady doesn't really
- 23:08Speaker 1: matter if she wants to be a part of this
- 23:09Speaker 1: or not. She's gonna be his friend. She doesn't get
- 23:12Speaker 1: a say, and then she immediately comes to life, is like,
- 23:16Speaker 1: I don't want to be here.
- 23:17Speaker 2: This is terrible.
- 23:18Speaker 1: Yeah, and obviously and that film Frank Frankenstein's Monster really
- 23:23Speaker 1: comes to the point very quickly, like we shouldn't have
- 23:26Speaker 1: done this. Once he sees it from the outside, what
- 23:29Speaker 1: happened to him, he is like this was wrong and
- 23:34Speaker 1: to really flesh out that whole concept so much more
- 23:41Speaker 1: in this food film, I really enjoyed because it's it's
- 23:44Speaker 1: really something that need to be discussed, is like women
- 23:47Speaker 1: being treated like property.
- 23:49Speaker 2: Yeah, this was a great I don't know, it's like
- 23:51Speaker 2: I loved it, but I need it's gonna need to rewatch.
- 23:55Speaker 2: It's gonna but it was very good, very strong women
- 23:58Speaker 2: in power, which I love saying. We should probably get
- 24:01Speaker 2: on to the next thing though, because go we'll throw
- 24:04Speaker 2: into the AI.
- 24:05Speaker 1: Went into a scream tangent.
- 24:07Speaker 2: Sorry, I got a lot of things to say. I'm
- 24:09Speaker 2: I'm fucking charged up today for The Resurrected. Anyways, let's
- 24:13Speaker 2: do the body count. I'm gonna blow through this as

- 24:25Speaker 2: in the US as a video home premiere, did not
- 24:27Speaker 2: get a theatrical run. So one of my questions I'm

- 27:18Speaker 2: that's it. You've seen everything else.
- 27:20Speaker 1: I've never seen basic instinct.
- 27:21Speaker 2: Oh shit, I really thought you had.
- 27:23Speaker 1: But I have seen noises Off.
- 27:24Speaker 2: Trust me. Wild Movie showed me it and it made
- 27:27Speaker 2: me very stressed.
- 27:27Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I forgot that it may trigger anxiety.
- 27:30Speaker 1: I was like, have a thing. We're watching people running
- 27:35Speaker 1: around in a panic. Gives you anxiety?
- 27:36Speaker 2: Gives me?
- 27:37Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a great film anyways.
- 27:39Speaker 2: IMDb Sumray Charles dexter Ward's wife enlist the help of
- 27:43Speaker 2: a private detective to find out what her husband is
- 27:45Speaker 2: up to in a remote cabin owned by his family
- 27:48Speaker 2: for centuries. This is the autopsy.
- 27:52Speaker 1: So the way you said that made it sound like
- 27:54Speaker 1: her name was Charles Charles dexter Wards wife.
- 27:57Speaker 2: Yes, Charles dexter Ward's wife. Overall thoughts, gebby, what do
- 28:02Speaker 2: we got?
- 28:03Speaker 1: I really enjoyed this. This was fun to watch. Yeah,
- 28:07Speaker 1: I've always had kind of a hard time with h Lovecraft,
- 28:12Speaker 1: the Lovecraft movies because they're so out there most of
- 28:16Speaker 1: the time that I'm just like, yeah, they're sure is
- 28:19Speaker 1: stuff happening? I think I'm really sure. You really just
- 28:24Speaker 1: gotta like accept what you're seeing and just go with it.
- 28:28Speaker 1: You really are like, does it make sense, doesn't matter,
- 28:31Speaker 1: it's happening. This one, I had a lot easier time
- 28:35Speaker 1: following what was going on, despite the multiple flashbacks within
- 28:41Speaker 1: flash back. Ah, they really just wanted to take you
- 28:44Speaker 1: so many layers back. You're like, I don't know what
- 28:46Speaker 1: fucking year it is.
- 28:47Speaker 2: Man, I've got a great joke on that one later.
- 28:49Speaker 1: But it was really interesting. It was cool to see
- 28:54Speaker 1: Prince Humperton in something else.
- 28:57Speaker 2: I'm just glad I've been picking movies and selected like
- 28:59Speaker 2: I've been selecting people I typically wouldn't for certain movies,
- 29:02Speaker 2: and it's been working out, Like uh, Corey with the
- 29:07Speaker 2: Deep Cut we did last month, Dead and Buried fucking
- 29:10Speaker 2: loved it you with this one, I was like, let
- 29:11Speaker 2: me let me just try and switch switch a you know.
- 29:14Speaker 1: Me, I'm willing to try a lot of things.
- 29:16Speaker 2: Obviously I won't like re Animator. I knew you. I
- 29:19Speaker 2: was like, that's not like, that's not going to be her,
- 29:21Speaker 2: So let me let me get a fan.
- 29:22Speaker 1: Uh did you know the one scene just took me
- 29:25Speaker 1: out of that movie forever, which is not the only
- 29:29Speaker 1: time that kind of things happened. Like anything, there's a
- 29:31Speaker 1: certain like amount of schevs me out that once it
- 29:34Speaker 1: happens like yet and I'm out.
- 29:36Speaker 2: Yeah, I know, I know.
- 29:38Speaker 1: But no. I thought this was really fun. It was
- 29:40Speaker 1: nice seeing some actors that I only seen in a
- 29:43Speaker 1: few things and some other stuff, and like the score
- 29:45Speaker 1: was like really.
- 29:46Speaker 2: Nice Richard band man.
- 29:49Speaker 1: It was. It was just really fun. It was It
- 29:51Speaker 1: was an enjoyable good time. It's a shame that this
- 29:53Speaker 1: didn't get a release because it would probably be more
- 29:55Speaker 1: popular than it is.
- 29:56Speaker 2: Oh, I've got theories and speculations on that.
- 29:59Speaker 1: Oh boy.
- 30:01Speaker 2: My overall thoughts, I think this is a truly slept
- 30:03Speaker 2: on Jim that thrives on atmosphere mystery and has a
- 30:06Speaker 2: third act that sprints to the finish line while cranking
- 30:09Speaker 2: everything up to eleven. But this will not be for everyone,
- 30:12Speaker 2: as the movie begs you to be patient, because the ending,
- 30:15Speaker 2: to me at least, is well worth the wait. So yeah,
- 30:20Speaker 2: so I think we should start with why this movie
- 30:23Speaker 2: didn't do well, why it's not really well known. And
- 30:28Speaker 2: I had I had all of this speculation and all
- 30:31Speaker 2: of just that. I have so many notes that I
- 30:33Speaker 2: wrote down, and then I did the IMDb thing and
- 30:35Speaker 2: I was like, didn't get a theatrical release. It went
- 30:37Speaker 2: straight to video, That's why. But nevertheless, just indulge me here.
- 30:43Speaker 2: So for me, I think it's crazy that even though
- 30:46Speaker 2: it went straight to VH because this is you know,
- 30:47Speaker 2: early nineties is the days of the video stores. People
- 30:51Speaker 2: would go there and just oh, that's got a fun title,
- 30:53Speaker 2: let's just rent it. It was directed by Dan O'Bannon.
- 30:56Speaker 2: He did, you know, The Return of the Living Dead
- 30:58Speaker 2: was a huge success from my understanding, and he's also
- 31:02Speaker 2: written movies like Alien, you know, stuff like that, so
- 31:05Speaker 2: he was already pretty well established in horror. So my
- 31:09Speaker 2: speculation is that outside of the fact that it went
- 31:12Speaker 2: to straight to VHS, maybe people were over loved Craft adaptations,
- 31:16Speaker 2: because follow me here, right, Loosely based movies on Lovecraft's
- 31:21Speaker 2: work would be stuff like The Beyond from Folgy eighty one,
- 31:24Speaker 2: John Carpenter's The Thing, Prince of Darkness. Those are things
- 31:27Speaker 2: that are love Crafty and adjacent, right, But then you
- 31:30Speaker 2: have Reanimator eighty five, from Beyond eighty six, The Curse
- 31:34Speaker 2: eighty seven, The Unnameable eighty eight. It's entirely possible people
- 31:38Speaker 2: saw this and were like, I'm just kind of over
- 31:40Speaker 2: Lovecraft adaptation. We've gotten one every year. Plus this was
- 31:44Speaker 2: after the post slasher era in the eighties. Horror was
- 31:49Speaker 2: in a really weird spot in the night.
- 31:51Speaker 1: It could have easily been that we had moved on
- 31:53Speaker 1: to a different kind of horror.
- 31:55Speaker 2: Well, because you know, so everyone's over Slashers, they might
- 31:58Speaker 2: have been over the love Craft adaptations. This is pre
- 32:00Speaker 2: Scream by five years. You know, we're not only revitalized
- 32:05Speaker 2: slasher movies but just horror in general. So here are
- 32:08Speaker 2: some of the movies that came out in nineteen ninety
- 32:10Speaker 2: And I think this also played into why this movie didn't.
- 32:12Speaker 2: I think people were just not into horror in the
- 32:14Speaker 2: nineties because listen to all these sequels. You've got Predator
- 32:17Speaker 2: to Tremor's Jacob's Ladders, Okay, cool, Gremlins two, Child's Play Too,
- 32:23Speaker 2: The Exostist three, Troll two, The Worst Texas Chainsaw Movie,
- 32:27Speaker 2: leather Face, Texas Chainsaw three, Bride of Reanimator. So that's
- 32:31Speaker 2: still technically, I mean, it's not like a direct love
- 32:34Speaker 2: crafty and adaptation, but you know whatever, Franken Hooker, which
- 32:38Speaker 2: I love, Maniac Cup to basket Case to Slumber Party,
- 32:42Speaker 2: Masker three, The Gate to prom Nights. I mean, there's
- 32:45Speaker 2: so many sequels happening right now. I didn't realize that,
- 32:49Speaker 2: and most of those sequels, a lot of those that
- 32:51Speaker 2: I'd mentioned aren't great sequels, So it's entirely possible people
- 32:55Speaker 2: in you know, nineteen ninety were just like, I'm kind
- 32:57Speaker 2: of this is horror, isn't a really weird spot? And uh,
- 33:01Speaker 2: these we're getting so many fucking sequels that maybe people
- 33:04Speaker 2: were just like not really into finding new things that
- 33:09Speaker 2: they hadn't that wasn't in theaters, you know.
- 33:11Speaker 1: Well, and I think screenplayed a big part and really
- 33:14Speaker 1: revitalizing horror. So at this point we could be tapering off,
- 33:18Speaker 1: and yeah, comedies were more popular cop films or cops
- 33:23Speaker 1: were more popular.
- 33:25Speaker 2: Actions at.
- 33:30Speaker 1: Those kinds of things were really taking more of a
- 33:32Speaker 1: center stage around this time, So it makes sense that
- 33:35Speaker 1: maybe they were just kind of in that they got
- 33:38Speaker 1: caught in between Yeah, enjoyment in horror and like, yeah,
- 33:47Speaker 1: that it makes sense. It could have just kind of
- 33:48Speaker 1: gotten lost in the mix. Yeah, just like we were
- 33:51Speaker 1: talking about with a Zombies, had this come out at
- 33:54Speaker 1: a different time, it would have hit much harder.
- 33:56Speaker 2: It'd have been gangbusters. So going into this movie, you
- 34:00Speaker 2: had not heard of this until I had told you
- 34:02Speaker 2: about it.
- 34:03Speaker 1: Yep.
- 34:03Speaker 2: I told you that it was directed by Dan ol
- 34:06Speaker 2: Mannon who did The Return of the Living Dead, which
- 34:07Speaker 2: you haven't fully seen, but you know enough about it
- 34:10Speaker 2: to know it's a zombie horror comedy. Yeah, and I
- 34:15Speaker 2: told you that he wrote Aliens. So knowing those two things,
- 34:17Speaker 2: going into this movie, did you have any sort of
- 34:20Speaker 2: expectations for what you might get?
- 34:22Speaker 1: No, because, frankly, I except forgetting what the film was. So, look,
- 34:28Speaker 1: we're potty training our child right now. That's literally all
- 34:31Speaker 1: I ever think about. Okay, And I've been going trying
- 34:35Speaker 1: to actually do what we all claim we're going to
- 34:38Speaker 1: do sometime but never do which is whittle Town our
- 34:40Speaker 1: letterbox watch this fair. I've been trying to do that,
- 34:45Speaker 1: but no, you were like, we're watching this movie thumbs up.
- 34:48Speaker 1: I'm cool, whatever, man, let's do it. And then I
- 34:51Speaker 1: looked at the poster briefly. I saw Prince Hepfording was
- 34:55Speaker 1: in it, and I was like, okay, cool, I don't
- 34:59Speaker 1: even think and get read the blurb.
- 35:00Speaker 2: Oh okay.
- 35:01Speaker 1: First I went in this super blind and it's differ
- 35:04Speaker 1: just like I'm here, Let's just turn it on.
- 35:06Speaker 2: Let's go all I see. All I really want to
- 35:09Speaker 2: know before going into a movie is just what the
- 35:11Speaker 2: letterbox rating is, just because that's it's a really good
- 35:14Speaker 2: gauge for me to be like, Okay, let me take
- 35:16Speaker 2: the title of this movie, the year, and the letterbox rating.
- 35:19Speaker 2: I can get a really good idea of what to expect.
- 35:21Speaker 2: But I don't need to I don't need to know
- 35:23Speaker 2: the summary. So how wildly different to Alien? I mean
- 35:27Speaker 2: Alien in Return Living Dead are also wildly different? But
- 35:30Speaker 2: how different from those two movies was this movie The Resurrected?
- 35:34Speaker 1: Oh if you told me that three different people directed
- 35:37Speaker 1: those movies, I would have believed you. Have you told
- 35:39Speaker 1: me that different people worked on those projects. They are
- 35:42Speaker 1: completely detached from each other. There I see no similarities.
- 35:46Speaker 2: Yeah, he worked on all three of them, you know,
- 35:47Speaker 2: directed to wrote one. So and since we did just
- 35:52Speaker 2: cover this in our in our last episode, you know, uh,
- 35:54Speaker 2: this movie obviously vibes very much like Reanimator because I
- 35:58Speaker 2: didn't tell you this, which was my until like halfway through,
- 36:01Speaker 2: probably not the third act, when I said, oh, by
- 36:03Speaker 2: the way, this is an HP Lovecraft adaptation, and you're like, ah,
- 36:07Speaker 2: this makes a lot more sense.
- 36:10Speaker 1: It didn't. Yeah, and I was like, ah, yeah, that
- 36:13Speaker 1: makes it, like I see that it Honestly, if you
- 36:16Speaker 1: had told me outright probably wouldn't have made more sense.
- 36:19Speaker 1: It will be like, as shit, I'm not gonna get this.
- 36:21Speaker 1: Oh maybe I told you so not knowing was like
- 36:25Speaker 1: I was not expecting to be really freaking confused.
- 36:29Speaker 2: So then I guess it worked in your favorite because
- 36:31Speaker 2: I think when I told you is when we saw
- 36:32Speaker 2: the monster in the pit at the like in the
- 36:35Speaker 2: third act, I was like, oh, by the way, and
- 36:36Speaker 2: you're like, oh, okay, that like that. So uh so,
- 36:41Speaker 2: since we did just cover Reanimator, to me, that one's
- 36:44Speaker 2: like a chaotic science, where this one is almost like
- 36:46Speaker 2: a controlled decay if you if you're watching them. So
- 36:51Speaker 2: even with the even with those similar vibes, I do
- 36:53Speaker 2: feel like they're vastly different. And to understand why this
- 36:56Speaker 2: movie feels so different, we got to take you back
- 36:58Speaker 2: to Providence. What Rhode Island.
- 37:00Speaker 1: Yep, that's where we.
- 37:01Speaker 2: Gotta go here, that's where HP Lovecraft is from. Apparently
- 37:05Speaker 2: so much like Reanimator, as this is based on an
- 37:08Speaker 2: HP Lovecraft book, this was actually based on or sorry.
- 37:13Speaker 2: HP Lovecraft typically did short stories. The Case of Charles
- 37:16Speaker 2: dexter Ward is his only full length novel that HP
- 37:20Speaker 2: Lovecraft ever did. It's his most in depth work, at
- 37:24Speaker 2: least from the information that I gathered, which is interesting
- 37:28Speaker 2: because I tried reading the Reanimator short story and didn't
- 37:31Speaker 2: get you know, didn't have enough time, and I was
- 37:33Speaker 2: gonna do that with this one, but then it said
- 37:34Speaker 2: full length you know novel. I said, Okay, I don't
- 37:36Speaker 2: have time for that. But it does have the same
- 37:39Speaker 2: exact plot. You know, Charles dexter Ward becomes fantasized with
- 37:43Speaker 2: his ancestor, Joseph Kerwin, a reputed wizard and necromancer, and
- 37:48Speaker 2: then of course that obsession leads him to study alchemy,
- 37:50Speaker 2: the Kabbalistic arts qa b l A Cabalistic arts, eventually
- 37:57Speaker 2: allowing him to physically resurrect Kerwin, who takes over his body.
- 38:02Speaker 2: Setting is also in Providence, Rhode Island, So it's a
- 38:05Speaker 2: pretty on the nose adaptation. And then of course it
- 38:09Speaker 2: deal you know, the themes or it deals with the
- 38:10Speaker 2: dangers of forbidden knowledge, the powers of the past, and
- 38:13Speaker 2: the thin boundary between life and death, blending psychological horror
- 38:16Speaker 2: with cosmic dread. The cool thing about the book, though,
- 38:19Speaker 2: is the novel contains some of the first references to
- 38:21Speaker 2: entities and concepts that will become central to the Cthulhu mythos,
- 38:25Speaker 2: including yog c Athos, which we read our daughter.
- 38:28Speaker 1: Do we have a book of colors that's all HP
- 38:31Speaker 1: love cut?
- 38:32Speaker 2: Yeah, Yoga. So yeah, So this novel contains Cthulhu Mythos,
- 38:38Speaker 2: yog Cethos, and the Necronomicon, some of the first iterations
- 38:42Speaker 2: of those three things. It was written in nineteen twenty seven,
- 38:44Speaker 2: before it was first published in an abridged form in
- 38:49Speaker 2: something called Weird Tales in nineteen forty one, and then
- 38:52Speaker 2: finally in its complete form in nineteen forty three, so
- 38:56Speaker 2: eight eighty years forty something years later got adapted into
- 39:00Speaker 2: a film, you know. Yeah, so I did read like
- 39:03Speaker 2: the cliff notes, and I would say this is a
- 39:04Speaker 2: pretty faithful adaptation, especially when it comes to you know,
- 39:09Speaker 2: from book to screen because Reanimator, some of the names,
- 39:13Speaker 2: some of the places, some of the things are the same.
- 39:15Speaker 2: But Stuart Gordon just did his own thing. For the
- 39:18Speaker 2: most part. They tried to be true to it, but
- 39:20Speaker 2: you know, things happen. But I really like how the
- 39:23Speaker 2: story focuses on the dread and inevitability that something awful
- 39:27Speaker 2: is gonna happen, like you you know it's building to something,
- 39:31Speaker 2: and you just even even though I had seen this
- 39:32Speaker 2: one time, I didn't remember anything, and the whole time
- 39:34Speaker 2: I'm like, I don't remember, but I was nervous the
- 39:38Speaker 2: whole time, like what's what's gonna happen? So like, kind
- 39:41Speaker 2: of walk me through how you felt when because it
- 39:44Speaker 2: is kind of it is very much a slow burn. Yeah,
- 39:47Speaker 2: And I just want to know kind of your thought
- 39:48Speaker 2: process of getting the setup and then watching the events
- 39:51Speaker 2: play out by the time you get to that third
- 39:53Speaker 2: act and you get the reveal, like just give me
- 39:55Speaker 2: a little walkthrough of how you were vibing with the movie.
- 40:01Speaker 1: Well, I thought, once we really kind of start in
- 40:04Speaker 1: on that whole like what do you call that room?
- 40:07Speaker 1: Like the padded room that they're in, We're like, oh,
- 40:09Speaker 1: Wards escaped and it's just like blood everywhere, Like that's
- 40:12Speaker 1: probably that. Yeah, I know, you appreciate when I do that.
- 40:17Speaker 1: We always do that something that's scarably wrong, like that's
- 40:21Speaker 1: that's probably.
- 40:22Speaker 2: That's probably fine. We just didn't get that on a shirt.
- 40:24Speaker 1: That's probably fine. But that was like, oh, okay, that's interesting.
- 40:30Speaker 1: So I'm like, so, something's wrong with this guy. And
- 40:34Speaker 1: then you kinda like it kind of felt like a
- 40:37Speaker 1: mystery situation going on through the first part of the film.
- 40:42Speaker 1: But then I know they were talking about like these
- 40:44Speaker 1: grave raw robberies because at first I'm like, okay, so
- 40:47Speaker 1: he's like trying to make bodies. I guess it's kind
- 40:51Speaker 1: of giving this like Frankenstein corks robbing vibe. But then
- 40:54Speaker 1: they're like, but they're taking bones.
- 40:57Speaker 2: They're like what, so is he is he trying to
- 41:00Speaker 2: make a person? Is he trying to bring them back
- 41:03Speaker 2: from the What is what is this guy doing?
- 41:04Speaker 1: And name dropping like famous uh, alchemists.
- 41:08Speaker 2: And like Nicholas Flamel and shit.
- 41:10Speaker 1: Yeah, and so it was like, okay, so I don't like,
- 41:15Speaker 1: he's trying to bring somebody to life, but he needs
- 41:17Speaker 1: the ashes of an alchemist. Hmm, that's weird. Okay. And
- 41:22Speaker 1: then they're like, yeah, these dogs, there'd be dogs everywhere
- 41:26Speaker 1: in this area, Like sure, is it because they're attracted
- 41:29Speaker 1: to the scent of the body.
- 41:31Speaker 2: Do you feel this movie threw you off?
- 41:33Speaker 1: Oh yeah, like big time, because once we got to
- 41:36Speaker 1: the oh, you can mush bodies together thing, and I
- 41:39Speaker 1: was like, what.
- 41:39Speaker 2: The fuck, there's another Oh, it's it's very much like
- 41:43Speaker 2: you know, I feel like together definitely kind of Oh yeah.
- 41:47Speaker 2: Drew a lot of inspiration probably from I guess the
- 41:51Speaker 2: h We Lovecraft book.
- 41:52Speaker 1: Oh that wouldn't surprise me because it's.
- 41:54Speaker 2: Once I saw the merging of bodies, I was like,
- 41:56Speaker 2: oh man, this is just it's like together. It's almost
- 41:58Speaker 2: like a modern adaptation of of The Resurrected. Honestly, that's
- 42:02Speaker 2: what it feels like.
- 42:03Speaker 1: And so I really liked that though, that it felt
- 42:06Speaker 1: like it was leading you so hard in one direction
- 42:08Speaker 1: in your life and then it's like, actually, it's way
- 42:11Speaker 1: fucking weirder than that best of luck. Well, but then
- 42:14Speaker 1: you got some like really cool and interesting creatures like
- 42:17Speaker 1: oh oh, he's doing some weird shit.
- 42:20Speaker 2: Got it get real weird with it because it starts
- 42:23Speaker 2: off as very much as a mystery what's going to happen?
- 42:26Speaker 2: And then there's this tonal shift where Ward gets admitted
- 42:31Speaker 2: that it becomes like a character study on him, and
- 42:34Speaker 2: then it shifts tones again when they find the underground
- 42:38Speaker 2: labyrinth of tunnels. Then it's like a fucking Scooby Doo adventure.
- 42:42Speaker 2: So you have these tonals like two major shifts, and
- 42:45Speaker 2: then of course the third act reveal. So it's like
- 42:48Speaker 2: this movie kind of takes you all over the place,
- 42:50Speaker 2: at least in my opinion, where was I. Oh yeah,
- 42:54Speaker 2: And it focuses much more on the investigation side rather
- 42:57Speaker 2: than the spectacle side of it. And there's one of
- 43:00Speaker 2: the few Lovecraft adaptations that understands atmospheres over monsters, because
- 43:05Speaker 2: typically with love Crafts, it's just monsters. But this, like
- 43:08Speaker 2: I said in my opening statement, like this movie thrives
- 43:10Speaker 2: on the atmosphere it creates, which is not an easy
- 43:14Speaker 2: thing to do this well, and.
- 43:16Speaker 1: To me, it also had a much clearer story going
- 43:19Speaker 1: on a lot of times they're like, which isn't it
- 43:22Speaker 1: A lot of the Lovecraft ones like, isn't it a
- 43:24Speaker 1: mysterious thing that's happening? All right? Come on the mystery tour.
- 43:29Speaker 1: We're not gonna explain shit, You're just gonna see it,
- 43:31Speaker 1: and then it's just fine. You'll know, like I what
- 43:34Speaker 1: the no, I fucking don't don'tone say some words, because
- 43:38Speaker 1: like a lot of Lovecraft movies are involved a lot
- 43:40Speaker 1: of people staring and going did you see them? Blip off?
- 43:46Speaker 1: Like who are you? And what the fuck were you
- 43:48Speaker 1: talking about?
- 43:49Speaker 2: I don't know shit about fucking.
- 43:51Speaker 1: And these guys felt like you had some really normal people, yeah,
- 43:55Speaker 1: fair in all Lovecraft story you like, once you explain that, like,
- 43:58Speaker 1: it felt like you dropped some really normal people in
- 44:00Speaker 1: a Lovecraft story where they're like, I mean, this is
- 44:03Speaker 1: some really weird shit, man, but I mean it's happening
- 44:06Speaker 1: in front of our eyes, so it's not not real,
- 44:09Speaker 1: but what the fuck is it? And then they just
- 44:11Speaker 1: like the more clues they uncovered, they're like, Okay, well
- 44:13Speaker 1: this sounds really made up right, all right.
- 44:18Speaker 2: Far fetched?
- 44:19Speaker 1: And I really appreciated that because it wasn't just people like, ah, yes,
- 44:23Speaker 1: it's normal for these things to happen because time is
- 44:26Speaker 1: an illusion. No, no one walking into that situation who's
- 44:31Speaker 1: never been in that scenario was like, yeah, it's normal
- 44:34Speaker 1: for dogs to chase you when they flipped from nowhere.
- 44:37Speaker 1: And also there's a temple in the middle of nowhere
- 44:40Speaker 1: that you can only see every hundred years. Sorry, that
- 44:45Speaker 1: was a brig of dune joke.
- 44:46Speaker 2: Oh oh, I thought I thought you were talking in
- 44:49Speaker 2: the mouth of madness.
- 44:49Speaker 1: It was both, Oh, I just don't remember how the
- 44:53Speaker 1: hell that came up. How often the temple was like
- 44:57Speaker 1: just like, oh, you can find it if you know
- 44:59Speaker 1: the riddles. Okay, answered me. Didn't we say that on
- 45:02Speaker 1: the last episode, like bro I okay. But in so
- 45:09Speaker 1: many of these stories, everybody it just it's like watching dude,
- 45:16Speaker 1: he's just complete.
- 45:17Speaker 3: His name's completely Jeffrey Combs, No start twin Peaks, h
- 45:22Speaker 3: Kyle McLaughlin now the director.
- 45:25Speaker 2: Oh, David Lynch.
- 45:26Speaker 1: David Lynch. Everybody's fucking weird in every David Lynch movie,
- 45:30Speaker 1: and they're they're all just living in weird land, and
- 45:32Speaker 1: we just have to embrace the fact that they're all
- 45:34Speaker 1: going to act like this very strange personality of people
- 45:38Speaker 1: that don't exist, which isn't bad by any means, but
- 45:42Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, fucking I don't know what's happening either man.
- 45:46Speaker 1: And that's what happens with a lot of these Lovecraft stories.
- 45:49Speaker 1: This one felt like you had regular people who are like,
- 45:52Speaker 1: but I'm sorry, but why would he need that thing?
- 45:54Speaker 1: And he's reading the book. They're like, well, that's so
- 45:57Speaker 1: he's bringing back dead people. And the guy's like that's ridiculous.
- 46:01Speaker 1: Like yeah, but we've got a third party perspective who's
- 46:05Speaker 1: witnessed it, so that feels more plausible.
- 46:08Speaker 2: Plausible, deny it, that's not no, that's the wrong thing.
- 46:12Speaker 1: And it felt like I could connect with the story
- 46:14Speaker 1: more because I felt like I wasn't someone who's just
- 46:16Speaker 1: supposed to understand this is how the world works.
- 46:19Speaker 2: Now.
- 46:19Speaker 1: They didn't get it either. This was everybody was living
- 46:21Speaker 1: a normal life right up until this shit went down.
- 46:24Speaker 2: Well you just cooked right there. I was letting you go, uh, well,
- 46:30Speaker 2: I agree, because it's and that's why I said it
- 46:32Speaker 2: feels very much like Reanimator because it's a Lovecraftian story,
- 46:36Speaker 2: but it's also almost a complete inverse of Reanimator, because
- 46:39Speaker 2: we're in that movie he's literally bringing dead people back
- 46:43Speaker 2: to life in front of everyone who's just seems to
- 46:45Speaker 2: go with that. I mean, Dan is obviously traumatized, but
- 46:49Speaker 2: he still goes along with all of Herbert's madness everyone,
- 46:52Speaker 2: and this is like, ah, man, this is like so
- 46:54Speaker 2: far fetched. I don't I don't think this is real.
- 46:57Speaker 2: And then when they tested the lab, they're like, wow,
- 46:59Speaker 2: I just saw it at work, So I guess he's
- 47:01Speaker 2: bringing people back to life.
- 47:03Speaker 1: I guess let's give it a go. Damn. I'm like, well, shit,
- 47:09Speaker 1: it is real. I guess we blow it up or something.
- 47:11Speaker 1: I don't know, but we should not. Like they're like,
- 47:13Speaker 1: this is an abomination for sureseys we cannot let this
- 47:18Speaker 1: be like a thing that.
- 47:19Speaker 2: Happens, and we do. We do get some great abominations,
- 47:22Speaker 2: some great creatures.
- 47:23Speaker 1: All those are so cool that when they dragged the
- 47:26Speaker 1: corpse they dragged out of the river, Yeah.
- 47:29Speaker 2: That was and that was a really good practical effect too.
- 47:32Speaker 2: But it's not cosmic horror through exposition. I feel like
- 47:35Speaker 2: it's cosmic horror through implication because there's so many like
- 47:40Speaker 2: you get exposition, but it doesn't explain anything until the
- 47:43Speaker 2: very end. So it's all the implications of things. So
- 47:46Speaker 2: that's where the cosmic horror comes from me And I
- 47:48Speaker 2: think this is what happens when you would have Lovecraft
- 47:50Speaker 2: and actually commit to the dread rather than you know,
- 47:53Speaker 2: just the tentacles the vibes. But you know, love Lovecraft
- 47:57Speaker 2: on the page is one thing. Translating that to screw
- 48:00Speaker 2: is a completely other thing. And I think they did
- 48:02Speaker 2: it very well because the gothic vibes, the production design.
- 48:08Speaker 2: I love the small town setting. I love it wasn't
- 48:10Speaker 2: really a mansion, but it felt like a mansion just
- 48:13Speaker 2: because of how small it looked on the ass. It was.
- 48:16Speaker 2: It was like the what is it? The out out
- 48:18Speaker 2: of the box, out of the like there there in
- 48:21Speaker 2: the treehouse and you go in the treehouse and it's
- 48:22Speaker 2: like fucking four times.
- 48:24Speaker 1: To a box fort. Yeah, out of the box and
- 48:27Speaker 1: not out of the tree.
- 48:28Speaker 2: I didn't say out of the tree.
- 48:30Speaker 1: You said they went into a tree fort, I said, I.
- 48:31Speaker 2: Did say tree fort. I guess a better analogy would
- 48:35Speaker 2: be the Harry Potter tent. You know, like it looks
- 48:38Speaker 2: small on the outside, but then you get in there
- 48:39Speaker 2: and it's like it's like, how big is this fucking house?
- 48:42Speaker 2: And then especially with all of the caverns that are
- 48:45Speaker 2: down there.
- 48:45Speaker 1: I know at one point I was just like, what
- 48:47Speaker 1: the where are the fucking underground railroad under he under
- 48:50Speaker 1: this house? Like Jesus Christ, what part of France are
- 48:54Speaker 1: in it?
- 48:56Speaker 2: Just they all work, so it all works so well
- 48:59Speaker 2: to get They're just giving it this gothic vibe. It's
- 49:02Speaker 2: not over stylish, it's not glossy. It feels real, it
- 49:06Speaker 2: feels grounded, it doesn't feel so far fetched, you know
- 49:09Speaker 2: what I mean.
- 49:10Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, and that's why I said it make it
- 49:12Speaker 1: really works because you've got characters who aren't like, yes,
- 49:16Speaker 1: these things could happen. They're like, this is fucking weird,
- 49:19Speaker 1: but I'm seeing it. But they're not so in denial
- 49:22Speaker 1: that they're like, well, I'm just gonna ignore this. They're like, well,
- 49:24Speaker 1: let's take a look and see what we find. So
- 49:27Speaker 1: you get someone who's willing to go on the adventure,
- 49:30Speaker 1: but is skeptical enough that you feel like you can
- 49:33Speaker 1: connect with them and you want to see what happens. Yeah,
- 49:35Speaker 1: you're like, all right, I want to go too.
- 49:38Speaker 2: What is in there? What is the thing they say,
- 49:41Speaker 2: in the Santa Claus believing isn't seeing, seeing is believing
- 49:43Speaker 2: or whatever. Yeah, it's like that, like once they see it,
- 49:46Speaker 2: they're like, well, it's kind of hard to deny what's
- 49:48Speaker 2: right in front of my eyes.
- 49:49Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think.
- 49:50Speaker 2: I don't think we're all having the same shared hallucination
- 49:52Speaker 2: right now. So you know, like with the sense of
- 49:56Speaker 2: feeling grounded, we do get the cosmic elements, we get
- 49:59Speaker 2: the horrible disfigured mod Some of them are a little
- 50:01Speaker 2: rough around the edges, I won't lie, but others are
- 50:03Speaker 2: just pure nightmare fuel. So I really love the one
- 50:06Speaker 2: that was towards the end of the movie that you
- 50:08Speaker 2: could tell it was just a guy in a suit,
- 50:09Speaker 2: you know. I was like, it just adds to the charm.
- 50:11Speaker 2: It adds to that eighties charm that I really loved.
- 50:14Speaker 2: But even with some of the weaker effects, I was
- 50:16Speaker 2: never taken out by them, because sometimes you were like, wow,
- 50:19Speaker 2: that was wonky. But I appreciate the craft. I appreciate
- 50:22Speaker 2: the ambition and what they were going for with a
- 50:24Speaker 2: four million dollar budget, which I gets pretty high for.
- 50:27Speaker 2: I mean, Renimator was only like nine hundred thousand, so
- 50:29Speaker 2: this is a pretty big budget for eighty one, but man,
- 50:33Speaker 2: they did some fun shit.
- 50:34Speaker 1: Yeah, but I'll take a practical effect over CGI any
- 50:37Speaker 1: day with this kind of stuff, because like at least
- 50:39Speaker 1: you can see the craft in it, right, Like there's
- 50:42Speaker 1: today like you're getting speed rushed CGI. We're just like, oh,
- 50:45Speaker 1: that is going to age like milk. Like I just
- 50:48Speaker 1: watched all those Marvel movies and some of the CGI
- 50:50Speaker 1: is already looking fonky.
- 50:53Speaker 2: I mean, Multiverse of Madness looked bad in the theater
- 50:56Speaker 2: and I was like, ew, like you know the center,
- 50:58Speaker 2: I I said, guy, it's an eyeball in the forehead.
- 51:02Speaker 1: Well even for uh fantastic for first steps, A lot
- 51:07Speaker 1: of it looked great. Yeah, and they even had a
- 51:10Speaker 1: real baby. But every time the baby was CGI, it
- 51:12Speaker 1: was you would be hard pressed to miss it. Everyone's like,
- 51:17Speaker 1: what in God's name you clearly had a real baby
- 51:19Speaker 1: in several shots, where was the real baby?
- 51:21Speaker 2: Real baby?
- 51:22Speaker 1: Go?
- 51:22Speaker 2: Was he busy? I can't imagine that? So yeah, I would.
- 51:26Speaker 2: I'll take bad practical effects that don't look good, but
- 51:31Speaker 2: someone put the time and effort into them over bad
- 51:33Speaker 2: CG any day of the week. And speaking of like
- 51:37Speaker 2: you know, the practical effects. The grimy underground aesthetic is
- 51:41Speaker 2: also great, totally vibes like as above slow below. Obviously
- 51:44Speaker 2: that would release decades later, I know, but it's just
- 51:47Speaker 2: not something that you would expect going into this, like, oh,
- 51:50Speaker 2: we're gonna go into the caverns and get torches and
- 51:53Speaker 2: lanterns and matches and find a fucking laboratory in Nicholas
- 51:58Speaker 2: Flamel's ashes also very tied to as above, so below,
- 52:02Speaker 2: especially since it involves Nicholas.
- 52:04Speaker 1: Lamel, the one guy we all know.
- 52:05Speaker 2: So one wizard, we all know that guy. But it's
- 52:11Speaker 2: interesting because they get down there and it's just these
- 52:13Speaker 2: seemingly never ending corridors that open into these huge just
- 52:18Speaker 2: like halls almost and the pits of disfigured creatures, the
- 52:23Speaker 2: wall of remains. It's somehow claustrophobic and vast at the
- 52:27Speaker 2: same exact time. Yeah, it's very weird.
- 52:30Speaker 1: Because you're in this like dark space, so it's like
- 52:32Speaker 1: this big room, but you can't see everything, so you
- 52:35Speaker 1: don't know what's in what's outside of your area of vision,
- 52:40Speaker 1: like what's behind me, what's end?
- 52:42Speaker 2: And then oh, we're into fucking huge laboratory with like
- 52:45Speaker 2: a thirty high foot ceiling. Yeah, I see that's shit coming.
- 52:49Speaker 2: But yeah, so I mean totally gave me Barbarian vibes
- 52:53Speaker 2: as well, but just much worse because you only had
- 52:56Speaker 2: really the two things down there in Barbarian. This there's
- 52:58Speaker 2: a whole bunch of shit.
- 53:00Speaker 1: I'd rather be in this catacombs than that.
- 53:02Speaker 2: Well, at least most of those were in pits.
- 53:04Speaker 1: Yeah, and they weren't like that bright and but like
- 53:08Speaker 1: what was happening in Barbarian was like, I don't want
- 53:10Speaker 1: to deal with the uber imbred hulk woman, uh, who's
- 53:17Speaker 1: obsessed with giving me breast milk hard pass, hard pass.
- 53:21Speaker 1: I'll deal with the weird creatures. I'm sure they can
- 53:24Speaker 1: be reasoned with.
- 53:27Speaker 2: I had something I was gonna say, and then it
- 53:28Speaker 2: flew out of my head. Uh. But yeah, so you know,
- 53:30Speaker 2: if your if your house does have a secret underground
- 53:33Speaker 2: flash tunnel, it's a therapy is not gonna help. You
- 53:36Speaker 2: just need a straight jacket. That's what you need. When
- 53:40Speaker 2: speaking of straight jackets, let me watch this segue. Let's
- 53:43Speaker 2: talk about Charles Ward Terrible. Uh, it's speaking of the
- 53:48Speaker 2: straight jacket literally, though I love when he sitting in
- 53:50Speaker 2: the straight jacket the whole time talking to the guy
- 53:52Speaker 2: at the end, John, and then he just like rips
- 53:55Speaker 2: it off so easily. I'm like, what, what? Why did
- 53:57Speaker 2: we just do that? To begin with?
- 53:59Speaker 1: There's a movie where some does that where they're like
- 54:01Speaker 1: sitting in cuffs and talking and then like they kind
- 54:04Speaker 1: of stand up because they've undone. The coffs and the
- 54:06Speaker 1: cops are like, what the fuck?
- 54:07Speaker 2: How did you do that?
- 54:09Speaker 1: Why did you do that? Like, uh, yeah, no, you
- 54:11Speaker 1: were never gonna keep me here unless I wanted to be.
- 54:13Speaker 1: I was hanging out.
- 54:14Speaker 2: It's pretty much Bundy, this dude. I think he was
- 54:15Speaker 2: honestly waiting for John at that point to come on,
- 54:19Speaker 2: to come on.
- 54:20Speaker 1: By the way, I really wish and I can see
- 54:25Speaker 1: based on the trivia there that I wish they had
- 54:27Speaker 1: kept in some more of the comedy for this movie
- 54:30Speaker 1: because the you know, the fact, yeah there was some
- 54:35Speaker 1: like there were some comedic moments, but the fact that
- 54:37Speaker 1: like two minutes before Lonnie went I thought it earlier,
- 54:40Speaker 1: but I finally said it. It was like, I Lonnie's too
- 54:43Speaker 1: uh come a long guy, and he's too funny. He's
- 54:47Speaker 1: not He's not gonna make it, man. Lonnie is not
- 54:50Speaker 1: making it through this film, and you're like, not Loannie.
- 54:52Speaker 2: Not our our sweet I literally said, I said, our
- 54:55Speaker 2: sweet Lottie. No, of course he's gonna make it. Oh
- 54:58Speaker 2: he died.
- 54:59Speaker 1: Yeah, But the vengeance of making it out of there
- 55:04Speaker 1: and just be rolling up on Charles Ward or whatever.
- 55:09Speaker 3: His name is, Charles Dexter Ward and being like, oh,
- 55:14Speaker 3: oh yeah, we found your little your little science lab there, bitch,
- 55:18Speaker 3: blew it up, blew it up.
- 55:19Speaker 1: Motherfucker's like, oh my god, that just like the he
- 55:25Speaker 1: could have said it any other way, and he decided
- 55:27Speaker 1: to say it like the pettiest asshole alive, like, oh
- 55:31Speaker 1: your little lab, I blew it up? Oh no, was
- 55:35Speaker 1: I not supposed to do that? See, well, my friend's dead,
- 55:40Speaker 1: So I guess it sucks, doesn't it.
- 55:42Speaker 2: All I could think of when he said that, looking
- 55:44Speaker 2: at Chris Sarandon's face was uh, Dennis from Sonny and
- 55:49Speaker 2: Philly just being like, you have not even begin to
- 55:51Speaker 2: see my unflaimable rage, just him going into one of
- 55:55Speaker 2: his tirades like yeah.
- 55:56Speaker 1: There's just like I'm He's like, I'm angry my friend's dead.
- 55:59Speaker 1: Instead of being angry and yelling I'm gonna be as
- 56:01Speaker 1: petty as possible, because I already know how much it's
- 56:04Speaker 1: gonna piss him off. Yeah, and that was Hilarus's hysterical Yeah,
- 56:10Speaker 1: they like and there there are some of their lines
- 56:12Speaker 1: to reactions to the shit they're talking about, just like,
- 56:15Speaker 1: this is ridiculous.
- 56:17Speaker 2: Well in much and uh, uh what am I trying
- 56:20Speaker 2: to say? Completely opposite of Reanimated, where that is a
- 56:23Speaker 2: horror comedy. There are some, like I said, there are
- 56:25Speaker 2: some comedic beats in this that are set up jokes
- 56:28Speaker 2: meant to be funny. But everyone in this is playing
- 56:31Speaker 2: it totally straight. Yeah, and the movie, the movie itself
- 56:34Speaker 2: is being played straight. We as the third party, are
- 56:36Speaker 2: not in on some sort of a joke that they're not.
- 56:39Speaker 2: We're like, no, this shit is wacky as hell. But
- 56:42Speaker 2: also I'm very convinced something very sinister is happening.
- 56:46Speaker 1: It felt like naturally right, It felt natural to the conversation.
- 56:50Speaker 1: Like the thing is with comedies, you know, when people
- 56:52Speaker 1: are saying comedic lines to be funny.
- 56:54Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, they weren't hamming it.
- 56:57Speaker 1: When you play it straight, but there's still those kinds
- 56:59Speaker 1: of lines in there. Uh, it's just so funny because
- 57:04Speaker 1: you're not expecting it, right, So it feels really natural,
- 57:08Speaker 1: and it just feels like a really hilarious roast in
- 57:11Speaker 1: this moment, like where everyone's ted serious. Also, you upset me,
- 57:15Speaker 1: so fuck you well, and.
- 57:16Speaker 2: It also kind of relieves some of that tension. Yeah,
- 57:19Speaker 2: I feel like those were There was a few moments
- 57:21Speaker 2: that were I think were perfectly placed because every time
- 57:24Speaker 2: I just kept tensing up, they give us a little
- 57:26Speaker 2: laugh and you're like, oh, okay, everything's fine. No it's not,
- 57:30Speaker 2: and then you would get right back into the thick
- 57:31Speaker 2: of it. So yeah, there are some really funny moments
- 57:34Speaker 2: in the movie, but it's just listed as a straight horror,
- 57:37Speaker 2: so they just worked. It did feel very That's exactly
- 57:39Speaker 2: what it is. It felt very natural. It felt very
- 57:42Speaker 2: h there's no other word for it. Natural. Yeah.
- 57:45Speaker 1: I felt like these were people like could actually meet
- 57:47Speaker 1: and talk to that, like they felt like real people.
- 57:49Speaker 1: Like even his wife is like, yeah, he's been acting
- 57:52Speaker 1: really weird and she's upset. She's not like, oh he's crazy,
- 57:56Speaker 1: what the hell. No, she wants to save her husband.
- 57:58Speaker 1: She loves her husband. She doesn't understand the change, and
- 58:01Speaker 1: she is doing whatever she needs to and She's not
- 58:04Speaker 1: like sitting by the sidelines or going, well, you're crazy
- 58:06Speaker 1: so I'm out. She's like, no, I need to find him.
- 58:09Speaker 1: I need to figure out what the hell's going on?
- 58:11Speaker 1: Where's my husband?
- 58:13Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, and I love that you mentioned that, because
- 58:15Speaker 2: she is introduced right off the bat as just a
- 58:18Speaker 2: completely concerned about her husband. You know. I think John
- 58:23Speaker 2: says something about, well, do you believe he's doing you know,
- 58:26Speaker 2: terrible things like well, he's my husband, Like I want
- 58:29Speaker 2: to believe him. But also he's isolating himself in the
- 58:33Speaker 2: carriage house.
- 58:34Speaker 1: So I've been real weird.
- 58:36Speaker 2: I don't know, but I love that how they bring
- 58:38Speaker 2: her in, because you can tell she got she's concerned.
- 58:41Speaker 2: Even her hand gesture. She was sitting there just like
- 58:44Speaker 2: doing this, and I'm like, ah, you're stressing me out.
- 58:46Speaker 2: She plays being concerned very well, and then as the
- 58:50Speaker 2: movie goes on, you just watch her lose her mind.
- 58:53Speaker 2: I mean, going from what's going on to oh, this
- 58:56Speaker 2: is what's going on? Jesus Christ. Yeah, is interesting, but
- 59:00Speaker 2: I love everyone's arc in this, even Charles. He's crazy,
- 59:04Speaker 2: but he's got a great arc. I think John also
- 59:07Speaker 2: it's interesting because they don't really give you much backstory
- 59:09Speaker 2: on really anybody except for Charles. Yeah, John, you really
- 59:13Speaker 2: don't know much about, and he's the focal point of
- 59:15Speaker 2: this movie.
- 59:16Speaker 1: Charles was her husband.
- 59:18Speaker 2: Charles is her husband. John is the detective. Yeah, yeah,
- 59:21Speaker 2: but it's what I'm saying, like the movie is from
- 59:22Speaker 2: John's perspective, and outside of being a detective, outside of
- 59:25Speaker 2: having Lonnie as a friend and Holly I believe is
- 59:27Speaker 2: his receptionist, you don't really know much about the man.
- 59:30Speaker 1: Yeah, that is likable, His people are loyal to him,
- 59:33Speaker 1: and he is a clever guy. Who is He's a
- 59:39Speaker 1: stand up guy, Like he's doing a work that involves
- 59:43Speaker 1: him manipulating situations to get information and playing detective. But
- 59:50Speaker 1: he's also committed to the job, which I think is
- 59:52Speaker 1: really funny because he started out by telling the wife, well,
- 59:55Speaker 1: we'll take a look and then i'll see if I'm
- 59:57Speaker 1: gonna take the job, and then never says he actually
- 59:59Speaker 1: took the job, just like at the point they're just
- 1:00:04Speaker 1: in the catacombs, just being like, you know what, I
- 1:00:06Speaker 1: don't think I'm gonna take this job.
- 1:00:09Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I think I can't accept this job.
- 1:00:12Speaker 2: In the middle of the catacombs and just lights the
- 1:00:14Speaker 2: match and heads on out. But they express they tell
- 1:00:18Speaker 2: you who he is by the people around him, and
- 1:00:21Speaker 2: that's like very it's brilliant writing in my opinion. They
- 1:00:24Speaker 2: don't have to give you some long backstory or exposition
- 1:00:26Speaker 2: on who he is. You get the sense of who
- 1:00:28Speaker 2: he is by how he interacts with the people around him. Yeah,
- 1:00:31Speaker 2: it's very intelligent writing. But Charles, on the other hand,
- 1:00:35Speaker 2: I'm not saying he's not intelligently intelligently written, but he
- 1:00:39Speaker 2: is a you know, obviously a very polar opposite of
- 1:00:42Speaker 2: James March because as he as James is going down
- 1:00:46Speaker 2: the rabbit hole, Charles is just slowly becoming different. He's
- 1:00:50Speaker 2: not loud, he's not mannic, He's just slowly becoming different
- 1:00:53Speaker 2: over time. And I also love the reveal of doctor
- 1:00:56Speaker 2: Ash being Joseph Kerwin. That was so great because you
- 1:00:58Speaker 2: pointed it out that fuck awful beard. You're like, wow,
- 1:01:01Speaker 2: that's a really bad fake beard.
- 1:01:02Speaker 1: And I almost get a crack that what if it's
- 1:01:04Speaker 1: just him and a beard, but he walked past himself.
- 1:01:07Speaker 1: I'm like, so that doesn't make sense.
- 1:01:08Speaker 2: And it was. And it's funny because like the fake
- 1:01:11Speaker 2: beard was intentionally bad.
- 1:01:13Speaker 1: Yeah, oh god, when you put it when you actually
- 1:01:14Speaker 1: get the the the flashback in the flashback, the whole
- 1:01:19Speaker 1: movie is a flashback with some extra flashbacks in those flashbacks,
- 1:01:25Speaker 1: like sixteen walls, right, But when you get the one
- 1:01:28Speaker 1: where you see him putting on the fake beard, I think,
- 1:01:31Speaker 1: Jesus chuist. This man's never applied to anything in his life.
- 1:01:35Speaker 2: Get get some you know, you get there's some of
- 1:01:37Speaker 2: that glue that you got to put on there. He
- 1:01:38Speaker 2: just like puts some tape ont. I'm like, this is terrible, just.
- 1:01:41Speaker 1: Kind of pets it on there, like oh no.
- 1:01:45Speaker 2: But yeah, that reveal was great. That was really good.
- 1:01:48Speaker 2: But I just love watching him change. I think once
- 1:01:52Speaker 2: you saw once he smiled when he was in the
- 1:01:54Speaker 2: mental air like whenever you want to call it, and
- 1:01:56Speaker 2: his teeth were all like bad. I was like, okay,
- 1:01:58Speaker 2: he is officially morphed into someone else. At this point,
- 1:02:01Speaker 2: he's doing meth now because his teeth were not like that.
- 1:02:05Speaker 2: So that's the moment I knew something was absolutely different
- 1:02:09Speaker 2: with him. And of course at that point he is
- 1:02:12Speaker 2: I guess Joseph Kirwin reincarnate.
- 1:02:15Speaker 1: Yeah, he uses Charles's body to reinvigorate himself and really
- 1:02:24Speaker 1: satisfying for Charles to get the last punching on that one.
- 1:02:29Speaker 1: What do you mean Because John literally brings that solution,
- 1:02:34Speaker 1: he jumps it on Charles remain because he's like, hey,
- 1:02:37Speaker 1: you know that magic potion you got while I brought
- 1:02:39Speaker 1: the fucking bones of the guy that if you get
- 1:02:42Speaker 1: those bones near you, the flesh is gonna head back
- 1:02:45Speaker 1: to where it's meant to be. And he's like, so
- 1:02:47Speaker 1: go fuck yourself.
- 1:02:49Speaker 2: Oh that was such a great place.
- 1:02:51Speaker 1: Was so satisfying to be like, yeah, you did you
- 1:02:54Speaker 1: killed this man who brought you back and then just
- 1:02:58Speaker 1: just have that moment where he's like, yeah, I know
- 1:03:01Speaker 1: one person who's ready to beat your ass. Dum potion.
- 1:03:04Speaker 2: And that was also such a great setup too, when
- 1:03:07Speaker 2: it's explained that you know, this reinvigoration process requires a
- 1:03:12Speaker 2: body and flesh and a lot of blood, and then
- 1:03:15Speaker 2: once you kind of assimilate into that person, if you
- 1:03:19Speaker 2: get those bones close to you again, they're gonna want
- 1:03:21Speaker 2: to be back on the bones that they were originally on.
- 1:03:23Speaker 2: So they set that up, yeah, like earlier on in
- 1:03:27Speaker 2: the film, and then when he gets there and throws
- 1:03:28Speaker 2: the bones out there and then you realize because we've
- 1:03:31Speaker 2: come full circle with this movie, and much like the
- 1:03:34Speaker 2: story in the movie, how it's history repeating itself, the
- 1:03:37Speaker 2: movie itself, you know, kind of loops back around to
- 1:03:40Speaker 2: the beginning, brilliant in itself and you're like, oh, those
- 1:03:43Speaker 2: bones and then it all clicks.
- 1:03:44Speaker 1: And you're like that and you're like, yeah, whatever that means.
- 1:03:49Speaker 1: And then you're seeing You're like, oh shit, the bone thing,
- 1:03:51Speaker 1: the bone thing's happening. Now, He's so.
- 1:03:54Speaker 2: Fucked such a great setup and like payoff for that.
- 1:03:58Speaker 2: But I just love watching Joseph Kerwin's just absolute descent
- 1:04:03Speaker 2: into madness because his obsession with living forever has become
- 1:04:06Speaker 2: his full personality. Yeah, doesn't care about anything else. We're
- 1:04:09Speaker 2: watching this man slowly erode and become more desensitized to
- 1:04:13Speaker 2: everything as time goes on. But yeah, I think this
- 1:04:18Speaker 2: movie is so so good. I'd say it's it's a
- 1:04:22Speaker 2: little underrated, but it's not gonna be for everyone because
- 1:04:24Speaker 2: of the fact because of the pacing. I think people
- 1:04:27Speaker 2: might I think the biggest issue people might have with
- 1:04:29Speaker 2: this is the pacing because it is slow, but it's
- 1:04:32Speaker 2: not boring. I remember we I just checked the time,
- 1:04:36Speaker 2: just to see where we were at, and we were
- 1:04:37Speaker 2: at forty five out of one forty five and I
- 1:04:39Speaker 2: was like, what the fuck are we gonna do for
- 1:04:41Speaker 2: another hour? And then then that's when he went into
- 1:04:44Speaker 2: the psych ward and I was like, okay, we're shifting gears.
- 1:04:47Speaker 2: And then then they got into the catacombs and I'm like, okay,
- 1:04:49Speaker 2: this is how we felt an hour and forty five minutes?
- 1:04:52Speaker 2: Got it?
- 1:04:53Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 1:04:53Speaker 2: So uh but yeah, I mean we already kind of
- 1:04:56Speaker 2: talked about the third act a little bit Underground Lab
- 1:04:58Speaker 2: Failed Experiments, Body Horror. So my question is is does
- 1:05:03Speaker 2: the payoff justify the slow burn in your opinion? Yeah,
- 1:05:05Speaker 2: because I said I said it. I didn't ask you,
- 1:05:07Speaker 2: so I said it. I was justified. But how do
- 1:05:09Speaker 2: you feel?
- 1:05:10Speaker 1: Oh? No, I think it is because it really your
- 1:05:14Speaker 1: They keep you in the perspective of the detective the
- 1:05:16Speaker 1: entire time, which I think is really fun because it's
- 1:05:19Speaker 1: not like, well, you're waiting for him to figure out
- 1:05:21Speaker 1: what you already know, because to me, that can be
- 1:05:23Speaker 1: really frustrating with storytelling is to wait for them to
- 1:05:26Speaker 1: catch up, like I want to be surprised too, So
- 1:05:29Speaker 1: to make it feel like this detectives really just trying
- 1:05:32Speaker 1: to figure out what weird shit her husband's up to,
- 1:05:35Speaker 1: and then it just gets so much stranger than you
- 1:05:38Speaker 1: possibly could have thought. And I mean, I wonder what
- 1:05:41Speaker 1: I would have thought had we not been watching Frankenstein
- 1:05:43Speaker 1: movies right before this.
- 1:05:45Speaker 2: We did watch this a lot of.
- 1:05:46Speaker 1: Just Frankenstein stuff right before this, so I think that's
- 1:05:49Speaker 1: where my mind was at. But just to be like, well,
- 1:05:53Speaker 1: what is he doing? What could he be doing? And
- 1:05:58Speaker 1: to go along with that and see that the answer
- 1:06:01Speaker 1: is so much bigger and so much stranger than you
- 1:06:05Speaker 1: could have conceived of. I really always enjoy that story.
- 1:06:08Speaker 1: It's like, hey, whatever you thought was happening so much
- 1:06:11Speaker 1: more than that.
- 1:06:12Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:06:12Speaker 1: And I always think that's a good payoff because if
- 1:06:14Speaker 1: you're if you're willing to go for the ride, you're
- 1:06:16Speaker 1: going to get that big payoff, and it's they're not
- 1:06:21Speaker 1: giving it to you upfront, so that way you'll stick
- 1:06:22Speaker 1: it out.
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: Exactly that they give it to you. It's like whispering
- 1:06:27Speaker 2: at you the whole time, and then by the third
- 1:06:29Speaker 2: act is just like screaming yeah, right next to your face.
- 1:06:33Speaker 2: So I love this movie worked. It worked. I would
- 1:06:36Speaker 2: say it worked better for me this time. But again,
- 1:06:38Speaker 2: I don't really remember much. I just remember i'd watched
- 1:06:40Speaker 2: it a few years ago. I'd gave it like a
- 1:06:42Speaker 2: three and a half and I enjoyed it. But talking
- 1:06:45Speaker 2: about it now, I might raise it even more than
- 1:06:47Speaker 2: I did. I just I do think this is an
- 1:06:49Speaker 2: incredibly well done film, even though, like I said, it
- 1:06:52Speaker 2: is rough around the edges, but it adds to the
- 1:06:55Speaker 2: charm because you know, nineteen eighty one or eighty one?
- 1:06:58Speaker 2: Where am I here? Jesus, I kept saying eighty one.
- 1:07:02Speaker 2: It's not eighty one, it's ninety one. Yeah, So yeah,
- 1:07:06Speaker 2: I really enjoy this movie. It seems like you did
- 1:07:09Speaker 2: as well.
- 1:07:09Speaker 1: It was really fun.
- 1:07:10Speaker 2: Is there any other things you wanted to hit? Because
- 1:07:12Speaker 2: that's pretty much all I have, no ill, I think
- 1:07:15Speaker 2: we got it all. So yeah, that is the resurrected
- 1:07:20Speaker 2: from nineteen ninety one. It's not going to beg for
- 1:07:23Speaker 2: your attention. It just lingers, and so you got to
- 1:07:25Speaker 2: you gotta sit with it. It wants to be discovered,
- 1:07:28Speaker 2: So just discover it. Get out there. Yeah, get at it,
- 1:07:32Speaker 2: even though it's not streaming anywhere.
- 1:07:34Speaker 1: Go get it energized.
- 1:07:35Speaker 2: Go get it energized. Make adjustments go get it energized. Okay,
- 1:07:39Speaker 2: I'm gonna this fucking iPad. Stand is not it's for
- 1:07:43Speaker 2: an iPhone and amusing an iPad. It's not great anyways,
- 1:07:47Speaker 2: What are we doing now? Post review stuff? Is that

- 1:08:14Speaker 2: Death is only the beginning trivia. According to Diane O'Bannon,
- 1:08:20Speaker 2: I copied and pasted that Oh. The film was recut
- 1:08:22Speaker 2: against her husband's objections and released without his approval. It
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: was re edited without the humor that he had attempted
