  Speaker 1: All right, so this week's movie threat is a continuation
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: because the last time, well, it's two ago technically, but
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: one of the last ones I saw in the real
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: world was very sort of kid-oriented, and you guys were like,
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: you didn't buy that? What the hell's wrong with you?
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: So then yesterday, actually, I ran into this movie, and
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: I was like, first of all, I wasn't going to.
• 0:41
  Speaker 1: Then I saw the cast line up, and I'm like,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: damn it, all right. Mostly for you guys. I got
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: Dear Dracula.
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: Oh.
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Now looking at it, I'm like, this animation is going
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: to be terrible. So I almost didn't blow the very
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: minimal investment. Look at the, skip the second one, but
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: read off the cast list there for voice actors.
• 1:03
  Speaker 3: Let's see. We've got Ray Liotta.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Oh.
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Ariel Winter.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Done.
• 1:09
  Speaker 3: Emilio Estevez, Matthew Lillard.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Oh, Matthew Lillard.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Okay, just for the voice actors, I'm going to have
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: to watch this thing.
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: Well, now, okay, no, this little bit of propaganda at
• 1:21
  Speaker 3: the bottom of the front cover here has me intrigued.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: What would happen if you wrote Dracula instead of Santa?
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: See, that was the first thing that got me. I
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: was like, all right, I like this premise. I might
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: want to watch this dumb kid's movie. And then I
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: saw the cast line up there and I was just like,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: all right, fine. We're going to at least discuss it
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: on this and then we'll see if somebody wants to
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: put it on the list.
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: Oh, it sounds adorable.
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: I bet my nieces would like this. They like mildly
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: spooky things.
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: How did that just with that cast just fly under
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: the radar.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: Well, again, cause I'm guessing the animation's probably really bad.
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: So I'm sure this had no other investment. It was like,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: they just somehow suckered Ray Liotta into it. And I
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: don't know, Emilio woke up that day and wanted to
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: leave the house, I guess. He doesn't do a whole
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: lot now. He wants to direct and that's it. So
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: how they suckered him into doing voiceover. He's like, I
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: don't have to be on camera. I got a lot
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: of mighty duck stuff to make and I don't have
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: time for you. But Matthew Lillard, you know, he, He'll
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: just show up.
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: He's super cool.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: That's what he does.
• 2:30
  Speaker 3: I think he's one of those guys where he's in
• 2:34
  Speaker 3: that stage where he makes movies that he thinks his
• 2:37
  Speaker 3: kids would like.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: Probably. And I'm all for that.
• 2:40
  Speaker 4: I love him.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Again, that one time I saw him, he was just
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: He was okay with the normal people, but he connected
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: with those kids.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: I can see that.
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: That one, like he was at his table. I think
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: I've told this before, but he was at his table signing.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: He was in the middle of talking to somebody and
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: stopped and went, hold on. There's a kid walking by
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: dressed as Shaggy. He came out from behind his table
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: and stopped him and knelt down and talked to him
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: for like five minutes while the other person's still just
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: standing there. I was like, normally I'd be upset if
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: I were them, but dude, you just went because you
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: saw a Shaggy kid and you wanted to go talk
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: to him. I was like, that's so adorable.
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: That really is.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he was just so into it with the kids. Like,
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: he really liked the kids, loved him as Shaggy and
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: Scooby-Doo stuff.
• 3:24
  Speaker 3: Well, that's why I was going to ask if the
• 3:25
  Speaker 3: kid was at least familiar that Matthew Lillard had played
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: shaggy i would assume he was just like i'm not
• 3:31
  Speaker 3: supposed to talk to stranger danger get away he's like
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: all right you've seen scream then good for you.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: But yeah so that that was a nice tie-in so
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: it's like just that cast alone i was like all
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: right or at least i'm going to have it now
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: whether or not we work it into an episode is
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: up to you Have you watched it? Oh, no. I
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: just got it yesterday. So it's just going to go
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: on the pile and sit there for all eternity. Like
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: all of these movies I keep buying that I don't
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: really have time to watch. But if we do watch
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: a movie, we then usually talk about it and say
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: amazing things like this.
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: And it is about a group of high school students,
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: none of whom is played by an actor who is
• 4:20
  Speaker 3: remotely under the age of 25.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: So like every high school thing ever that was shot
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: i did that like i literally had to go read
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: up on it afterwards i was like but you how
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: did you because it's been 10 years like she's playing
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: the same little kid character movies are.
• 4:41
  Speaker 3: Supposed to distract you.
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: From reading this one forced me to i was just
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: like man But don't worry, that'll come back around and
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: pay off.
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: Oh, no way.
• 4:51
  Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
• 4:52
  Speaker 3: Yeah, in other words, we have an interesting subplot that's dark.
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: That could be a thing, but it's never explained at all.
• 5:01
  Speaker 3: You know, at one point, that sort of makes sense
• 5:05
  Speaker 3: because you're like.
• 5:06
  Speaker 2: And then there's something... That has kind of attached itself
• 5:12
  Speaker 2: to him in the house.
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: Something.
• 5:14
  Speaker 4: So scary. There's no tigers. There's goats.
• 5:18
  Speaker 2: Goats.
• 5:18
  Speaker 4: Okay.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: But literally by the end, Pierce and I both were
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: on separate corners of the couch with our knees like
• 5:25
  Speaker 2: tucked up. like covering our eyes by the last scene
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: and so neither of us saw the end of it
• 5:32
  Speaker 2: but we were too afraid to rewind it like a
• 5:34
  Speaker 2: minute and watch it so i had to look up
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: the plot summary on wikipedia to see what actually happened.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: What was this calling in the.
• 5:44
  Speaker 4: I couldn't i couldn't it's.
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: Too scary you think it's like the ring and it's
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: gonna steal your soul if you see it.
• 5:50
  Speaker 4: I was like i'm not gonna be able to sleep.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: On an old-timey viagra.
• 5:55
  Speaker 2: We were not it kind of felt like it like
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: it felt like you shouldn't be watching this.
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: What goes on like where's the convention part of this
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: i see the hotel part i see people and they're
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: supposed to go sign autographs but other than that like
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: all i see are fireworks and a rave so i'm
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: like what is going on in this convention I also
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: feel like you're overwhelmed at this convention because you're not
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: a 12-year-old child who gets to run free in a hotel.
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: Because the whole place.
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: Is just swarming with children.
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: It's like a pack of wild dogs made up by
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: nine-year-old little girls.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: There's like the one kid that comes up for a
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: selfie has their mom with her. But other than that...
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: I don't think we ever see a parent. They're all
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: just running loose. I'm like, what is this convention?
• 6:43
  Speaker 2: And it's like a multi-day thing. So it's like, who
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: made your hotel room reservation?
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: The kids are just staying by themselves in a room somewhere.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: It's like slumber party. No, wait, that's her again. And
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: this is a real sequel slash now prequel. Yeah, I
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: was so confused. And I still a little bit am.
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: I do question that they might have used some sort
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: of witchcraft.
• 7:09
  Speaker 4: Was it supposed to be funny?
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: I don't know. It says a lot.
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: When you can't tell if it's supposed to be a comedy,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: it says maybe the most about a movie.
• 7:19
  Speaker 3: I mean, there were funny moments because there's.
• 7:24
  Speaker 4: But ultimately, that doesn't even like.
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: Factor in?
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: Matter at all.
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: And that's where I will continue to complain.
• 7:33
  Speaker 4: Like, I'm just like, why?
• 7:36
  Speaker 3: And the.
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: The heavy handedness of the phone. I'm like, we get it.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: But they all do that. Our last movie did the
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: exact same thing.
• 7:46
  Speaker 2: I thought that was bad with the one scene at
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: the end. This was like every goddamn scene. They're like,
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: phones are bad. I'm like, I get it, Grandpa.
• 7:54
  Speaker 4: Good God. But like, let's move on.
• 7:57
  Speaker 3: And there's even a shot near the end of the
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: movie where you see a flash of him standing behind Bobby.
• 8:05
  Speaker 3: Almost like he's controlling Bobby, but some body or thing
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: had to kill him. And he's already talking to Bobby.
• 8:14
  Speaker 3: And then there's blood coming out of the computer.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: Of the everything.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: Which makes no sense.
• 8:22
  Speaker 2: Because in the 80s, there was an actual crime scene.
• 8:27
  Speaker 2: There was actual evidence of the people who got killed.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: It wasn't like the room just went back to normal
• 8:32
  Speaker 2: and they like went off into some ether.
• 8:34
  Speaker 4: So then why would they?
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Wait, you're saying the things that I wrote over here
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: in the script have to match up with the things
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: over here in the script? I don't think so.
• 8:45
  Speaker 3: A lot of the movies I've seen on there, it
• 8:46
  Speaker 3: seems like every 10 or 15 minutes or so, which
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: isn't terrible. There'll be an ad. This one, the ads
• 8:53
  Speaker 3: were few and far between, and I was praying.
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: For ads to come up.
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: Even advertisers didn't want to touch this movie.
• 9:00
  Speaker 4: They were like, we don't want to be associated with this.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: You don't need to know how to plot. It's not
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: bad CG either. It's mostly practical stuff, which is phenomenal.
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: It's mostly just planning things out and knowing how to
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: do things. I was just like, that makes this even
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: more impressive. I was like, this is Such a fun
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: movie anyway, but now I'm just like overwhelmed by how
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: amazing you guys are for making this happen.
• 9:32
  Speaker 4: Why wouldn't you just go stay at the Doubletree?
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: He even recommended it.
• 9:37
  Speaker 4: I know.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: And everybody is acting so weird and scared of your
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: room and you're just like, this is fine.
• 9:43
  Speaker 4: And then poor Warren. Wants to help.
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: See, if I ever check into a hotel and that
• 9:50
  Speaker 3: experience happens where they're like, well, we have this other
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: room and the other guys are like.
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: I don't know anything about anything but i know horror
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: movies so is there a ghost and is it a
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: little boy.
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: Ghost plus she said she doesn't unpack her clothes like
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: at the beginning she was like i'm not gonna hang
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: anything up in here so like well then stay out
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: of the closet.
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: I mean, that is a pretty big closet, so if
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: you don't put your stuff in there, you could still
• 10:18
  Speaker 3: go in there and make make-believe, which is what I
• 10:21
  Speaker 3: would do.
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: While we're in the closet, who left me this bunny balloon,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: and why are there eight pairs of shoes on the floor?
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Actually, I'd be like, thank you for the bunny balloon.
• 10:32
  Speaker 4: That's too fast.
• 10:33
  Speaker 3: That wouldn't even scare me.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: I'd just be like, that's cool. I like bunny balloons, sure.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: The maid comes in, and the first thing you see
• 10:41
  Speaker 3: her do is stripped the bed of the linens, which
• 10:45
  Speaker 3: 30 seconds they showed us that the linens were already
• 10:47
  Speaker 3: stripped off the bed and somebody had placed a chair
• 10:50
  Speaker 3: on top of it.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: Well, that's the least of your worries.
• 10:54
  Speaker 2: Start going around and decluttering first. Let's put everything back,
• 10:58
  Speaker 2: and then we worry about the sheets. Why would you
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: do that first?
• 11:01
  Speaker 3: That room, I mean, yeah, it was a mess, but
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: it was more of a like, well, this just needs
• 11:05
  Speaker 3: to go in this drawer, and we put this back
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: on that shelf.
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: Did you see the chair was on the mattress? I mean,
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: that room was shot. We got to go to a
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: whole nother hotel now.
• 11:14
  Speaker 4: The lampshades are upside down. Yeah, I mean, because they're evil.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: They bothered to screw them back on upside down. That's evil.
• 11:21
  Speaker 3: I think I'm doing those two things next time I
• 11:23
  Speaker 3: stay in a hotel.
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: And be like, it was ghosts? I mean, I can't
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: do that.
• 11:30
  Speaker 4: 1980s computer ghosts.
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: It's not me. I'm not a ghost. Ghosts.
• 11:37
  Speaker 3: But what a strange way to fit into the plot of, oh,
• 11:41
  Speaker 3: here's how I need to let my girlfriend know that
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: there's ghosts. I'm going to ask her if it's okay
• 11:48
  Speaker 3: if I film us having sex. She's going to say no,
• 11:52
  Speaker 3: which is a fair response. Even if she'd said, yes,
• 11:56
  Speaker 3: that's okay too, I guess. But she clearly says, I
• 11:59
  Speaker 3: don't want to do this. He does it anyway. And
• 12:03
  Speaker 3: he's watching the footage alone and crying about it.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: That's how that goes, right? That's how you use it afterwards.
• 12:11
  Speaker 3: How long after the act is finished? finished that he's
• 12:15
  Speaker 3: sitting there watching the video of them just sleeping. Which
• 12:19
  Speaker 3: is a whole other sort of creepy.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: That's true.
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: It's got so many bits and pieces of like, that
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: could have been a story, but you got busy doing like,
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: is it a 8-bit demon that follows you through years
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: and years of technology? Is it ghosts? Is it a
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: murdered kid in a hotel room? Is it a closet
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: that eats children? Give me something. There's a lot of
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: options here. Take any of those. But no, it's just
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: pieces of all that and nothing is ever followed through
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: on and no focus whatsoever.
• 12:51
  Speaker 3: I think of all those ideas you just listed out.
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: Closet that eats children.
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you.
• 12:58
  Speaker 3: I like the idea of sitting around talking about movies
• 13:00
  Speaker 3: that none of us have seen. What could this be?
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: I mean, that's what the threats are for. This is
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: a threat. We could be made to watch something terrible,
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: but this time I feel like we'd all be okay
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: if we got to sit down and watch some Dear Dracula.
• 13:15
  Speaker 3: I feel like it, yeah.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: We could be wrong. Again, some of those kids' stuff
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: are pretty bad, but I'm hoping with the voice talent alone,
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: this is going to be, you know, a few rungs
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: up on the ladder, so... Maybe.
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: Maybe it'll end up on the list.
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: You guys join the Meltdown Horror Club and let us
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: know if that's what you want us to watch.
