Casual now. I realize, like, what is that? That's a chapel room.
Chapel Rome. Now, but if you sing it in a deep man's voice,
Speaker 2

If you like to eat me out in the passenger seat,
Speaker 2 I'm a 41 year old divorced man and I'm gonna need you to tuck into this old hole little girl because I'm on my way to the pink pony club yeah I haven't uh cleaned back there in a while I want to get in there gotta start scraping yeah I wish you ever thought of putting some degreaser on your tongue before you get in there just cut some of the film because I've been at the Pink Pony Club for two weeks and I ain't had a bait.
Speaker 2 The best part about shitting lard is you don't have to push.
Speaker 2 I told you about it.
Speaker 2 Yeah, name Chapel Row.
Speaker 2 Welcome to Side Stories. It's a special summer movie edition.
Speaker 2 Disgusting.
Speaker 2 Get me out of here.
Speaker 2
My name is Henry Zabrowski. I'm sitting here with Ed Larson, and I'm sitting here with the surprisingly feminine Jackie Zabrowski.
Thank you.
Speaker 2
Yeah, even just, it's only for today, though. I only really bring it out.
I want to bring out that X quality about me. Do you feel it? I do feel it.
Do you feel it? I'm immune.
Speaker 2 Do you have a deeper voice than both of us? Yeah, I think so.
Speaker 2 You wait until I am in the choir with your wife. Are you immune?
Speaker 2 Yeah, baby.
Speaker 2
I'm an alto. Yeah.
Can you actually, before we begin, can you sing one line? This is true. Jackie has been semi-attending a local adult swimming.
Speaker 2 Yes. Whoa.
Speaker 2 You're in the choir.
Speaker 2
We are going to have a performance. Yeah, Henry.
You definitely.
Speaker 2
You needed this added to the schedule. Actually, Henry doesn't have to come.
We have a show that night. Yeah, sorry.
Speaker 2 I think that you're going to be canceling it because it's my first choir performance.
Speaker 2 Let's show up for the second one. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 See,
Speaker 2 because you'll get
Speaker 2 some better.
Speaker 2 But I would like for you. So, just for your knowledge, Jackie has joined an adult choir because she's broken and lost.
Speaker 2
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Grief does weird things to people.
If you could
Speaker 2 sing a little sample of your section, what songs are you singing right now? Well, we haven't started our next session. Who was the last one? I want to dance with somebody because Jackie.
Speaker 2 I want to do it, yeah, the other day. Yes, yes.
Speaker 2 Oh, I want to dance.
Speaker 2 No, let Jackie first do it and then add and then harmonize. harmony okay
Speaker 2 oh i want to dance with somebody
Speaker 2 i want to feel the heat with somebody
Speaker 2 yeah i want to dance with somebody
Speaker 2 somebody to love me
Speaker 2 well she was she's a different part she's an alto she's she's a different part i want to dance with somebody
Speaker 2
I want to feel the heat with somebody. Okay, a little oh, you gotta take it up.
You gotta take it up. Somebody.
Yeah, okay, yeah,
Speaker 2 I really don't know. That was important.
Speaker 2 Somebody. Yeah, you're just saying it differently, but it's not a different note.
Speaker 2
Somebody who loves me. Oh, you're a soprano.
Yes. Yeah, he's like a little bird.
Yep. Tweet, tweet.
You know what, Henry? And I will, I am going to put you on blast here.
Speaker 2 And I'm so glad that you've given me this platform today because yesterday,
Speaker 2 man, I was sad because maybe I'm watching Buffy and maybe something sad's going on in Buffy that might be similar to something that we have experienced in the last few months.
Speaker 2 And I was talking to Henry about it last night. I was sad about it.
Speaker 2 No, but it's her.
Speaker 2
She's the slayer and she has a mother. And I was sad about it.
And Henry literally went,
Speaker 2 you're sad because the fake people have a fake sad.
Speaker 2 I didn't say it in that way.
Speaker 2 I just said, no, I said, oh, you're sad about things aren't real?
Speaker 2
I was like, it's not real, though. I was like, I'm trying to connect with you.
Yeah, but I just emotionally connect with you for a moment. But again, pull me, Jackie.
In no way am I doing it?
Speaker 2 I am in a nice.
Speaker 2 I understand emotion. You know, see, I understand the real emotions.
Speaker 2 You're stupid emotions. You know, every day I am.
Speaker 2
Anytime I tell you a secret, it goes into this microphone. Of course, that's different.
Your secrets are funny. Your secrets are embarrassing, and they're good against you.
Speaker 2 The key difference is that
Speaker 2 Jackie's trying to explain things about... I was just like, they're TV people.
Speaker 2
How did I get all of the emotions and you got none of them? I got some. You're the anger.
You're the Italian and he's the polo. Yeah, that's what it is.
Speaker 2
Italians are very emotional. I suffer in silence.
You brought in. I suffer in silence.
Yeah, I know. Oh, you do.
Oh, he's. Oh, is it silence that we're getting? That we're all responsible for.
Speaker 2 Yeah, we all know how quiet Henry is. I suffer in silence.
Speaker 2 You'd never know I had problems.
Speaker 2
Never complaining, never a peep from him. But we're not here today to discuss this.
We're here today to discuss summer movies. Yeah.
Horror movies, that is. Yeah.
Speaker 2 And some of our favorite ones at that.
Speaker 2
And this year, I will say, has been quite the banner year for summer horror. It certainly has been.
This has been one of the best years, I would say, in record for continuous horror releases.
Speaker 2 It is pretty crazy how good it is, like hit after hit after hit. This is probably the best year of my life, actually, for horror moves.
Speaker 2
not for anything else. No, actually, my life's been great.
Okay, that's good. Yeah, we're doing it.
Speaker 2 Yeah, yeah, my life's right on the money.
Speaker 2
I want to go see Herbie Hancock tonight. Like, I'm doing great.
Oh, my God. The car?
Speaker 2 Yes.
Speaker 2 See, but great.
Speaker 2 Thank you.
Speaker 2 This is just a brief list of the movies that have come out this summer that were all
Speaker 2 at least good.
Speaker 2 Weapons, The Monkey, Bring Her Back, 28 Years Later, Dangerous Animals, companion.
Speaker 2 I'm not putting
Speaker 2
how dare you say it. You must say it.
I have to because we work with them. Final destination, bloodlines.
What
Speaker 2
is like that? It's final destination. They're all fun.
It is stupid. It is utterly fine.
Speaker 2
It was fine. It's stupid for a reason.
Presence is very good. Presence was awesome.
I loved.
Speaker 2 Presence is going to have of all, not maybe of all these movies. I feel like Presence is going to be around forever.
Speaker 2
Well, the one I actually do think it's going to haunt people more and more is the ugly stepsister. I think that's where we're going to be able to do it.
I don't, it might not be your thing.
Speaker 2 And, of course, the big tentpole movie of the entire year is so.
Speaker 2 But these guys, like, each one of these is extremely good. The ugly stepsister, I'll even start with because I would not even necessarily consider the ugly stepsister a summer horror film.
Speaker 2
Well, it's a fairy tale. Well, it's a folk horror film.
Yeah. And it's with folk horror.
I like it in the fall.
Speaker 2 Honestly, Henry, one of the only movies, one of the only horror movies this summer that I didn't get to see that apparently is very good is called Severed Sun. And it's a folk horror.
Speaker 2 But I was like, I want to wait until 31 for 31.
Speaker 2
Yeah. Seven.
Not the seven sun.
Speaker 2 I didn't see it because, again, same.
Speaker 2
I want to wait for the fall. I never even heard of it.
It's one of the smaller ones. It's folk.
It's folk. Folk, folk.
Like Pete Seeger. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, it is
Speaker 2 about fear and paranoia spread in an isolated religious community when a mysterious beast with shimmering white eyes embarks on a bloody rampage. This is my only thing.
Speaker 2 The only reason why I have yet to watch it is because I have been assuming that it might be boring. And I'm not ready for it to be boring.
Speaker 2
I don't think any of it's boring. Boring is like where you get me.
Yeah, it's the 4.9. I like boring.
That's why Hagazusa, bros. You know, it's like, this is what I'm saying.
Speaker 2
Well, he's never, again, we're talking about these are. I'm sorry.
We're not talking about summer movies. These are all fall films.
All right. So we'll see.
Speaker 2
Is a fall movie? It is, yeah. Why is that? Because you fall down, you go, oh God, it's so good.
Oh, no. It's because it takes place in a cold forest.
Speaker 2 Yeah, you want to be cold, you want to be eating a stew.
Speaker 2 Now, when you say summer horror movies, are we talking about horror movies that came out this summer, or are we talking about like movies that take place in the summer? Like Lost Boys.
Speaker 2
I actually think that this is a fun, debatable topic. Yeah.
Because I think it is either
Speaker 2 the
Speaker 2
time of year that the movie takes place in. But sometimes a summer horror movie, to me, is not necessarily a summer horror movie.
I know that's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2 But like midsummer. Today is in the
Speaker 2 most summer. You'd say that.
Speaker 2 But I find if I was to put summer, when I think of a summer horror movie,
Speaker 2
yes, but I actually like, this is again, this is just my opinion. Yeah.
But this concept of the, a movie you'd want to watch in the summertime.
Speaker 2 Like a movie that, to me, it's like a tentpole sci-fi movie or a giant action movie where there's a vibe to it that's way more about the popcorn and the hanging out and being a part of a cultural moment.
Speaker 2
Okay. So yeah, so like, yeah, it's a superhero movie, kind of.
Kind of, but you're like, Midsummer to me was a, it's a folk horror. It's an amazing folk horror.
It's really good.
Speaker 2 It's actually kind of a by the numbers folk horror. You know what I liked about Midsummer so much is that it like it's one of the horror movies that's like mostly takes place like in the daytime.
Speaker 2 I see what I love.
Speaker 2 I think that's why it's
Speaker 2 better in the winter because there's such a contrast in watching Midsummer, but then it's cold outside and it's all dark, but it's so bright and it makes it so much more upsetting.
Speaker 2
Like summer horror movie, the first one that hits me of all this whole list, besides Jaws, is date. Well, that's the one.
That's the. Jaws is, yeah, it's 4th of July.
Yes. Yeah.
Speaker 2 But But Dangerous Animals of this year was.
Speaker 2
Yeah, man. Dangerous Animals was fun.
I was so surprised
Speaker 2
at how good it was. Jai Courtney is an amazing villain.
He was terrified. He doesn't.
He really was.
Speaker 2 That's the type of villain that I'm not normally that even into. The idea of the cocky, semi-funny villain.
Speaker 2
Yes. Like, he's like a bro.
He's a jock villain. Yeah.
Speaker 2
But he, he's great. He's, I mean, I couldn't take my eyes off of him.
It really felt, it was like, is he the shark? Yeah.
Speaker 2 Chucky may have hit something because it's more about, does a man who use sharks as a weapon, is he more dangerous than the shark themselves?
Speaker 2 That's one of the things I really did love about the movie is that the sharks, as a shark lover, were not the bad guys. Right? Well, they were just
Speaker 2
being sharks too. Yeah, they were.
And then they were a sickle. And then I did.
Speaker 2 I called it. What do you mean? Remember in the middle of the movie? What, she's going to eat her thumb off? Well, it was the idea of like
Speaker 2
the shark. Well, spoilers.
Yes. I mean, of course, we're talking about movies.
Maybe like
Speaker 2 the shark's going to feel guilty. That's her yay.
Speaker 2 That's the whole
Speaker 2
thing of the movie hinges on the fact at the very, very end that the shark. It's the ultimate shame.
It changes its mind. Yes.
What if I don't eat these fruits?
Speaker 2
It is the best part of the movie. Because all the rolled by or is like, you cute.
Yeah, he just like, you know what? Not that.
Speaker 2
I'm not even that hungry. But it's like, it's just such a, but otherwise, the mechanism of the movie was great.
It's an entire movie that could have been called the implication.
Speaker 2 Do you feel like from Always Sunny? Oh, I don't know. You know the thing with Always Sunny?
Speaker 2 That's like the bit where it's like Dennis talks about how he's like, you always want to take women out on a boat.
Speaker 2 Like on the first date, you want to take them out on a boat because they're out in the water.
Speaker 2 It's just like, you know, you're all the way out here, you know, and it's not like you're going to do anything, but it's the implication.
Speaker 2 You know what I mean? That's his idea. Yeah, you want to go on my boat, you know,
Speaker 2 get off the boat.
Speaker 2 Remember, we did that story recently about hippies getting on a boat, like this idea of in David Parker Ray that they would go and take a big old boat fun ride where they would fuck on the boat and he'd be like, there's where body's right there.
Speaker 2
And I put a body right there. And they're all like, David, you funny.
You funny guy. Put a yacht on it, man.
I'd do anything to get on one. I love a get-a-boat.
Speaker 2
You know what they say this all the time. Don't worry about that.
You know what they say? It's the two worst days, the two best days of your life. The day you buy a boat and the day you sell a boat.
Speaker 2
Because yep, we've heard this. Yeah, we're from Florida, Henry.
Yeah. Have you heard a little thing about that?
Speaker 2 Have you heard anything about Barclays?
Speaker 2
My buddy's dad built an arena. And so, like, part of like the part of like the thank you for building the arena.
Land shark arena? No, no, no, no. A marina.
Oh. A marina.
I'm sorry. Did I say arena?
Speaker 2 Dan Marina is as his sister? Dan Marina.
Speaker 2 So he built the marina, and then, as like a thank you, they gave him a speed boat. And so we used to like skip school and take it out sometimes.
Speaker 2 And like, fucking, but we were so stupid, we didn't know what we were doing. So we put a bunch of glass in the bottom and so one time like corona bottles.
Speaker 2 And so they all broke in the hull, and we had to like cut up our hands trying to clean it up so his dad wouldn't find out. Oh, gosh, just imagine you all just like kind of drop.
Speaker 2 And again, it shows that the most dangerous animal of all is mana. Man.
Speaker 2 So I feel like Dangerous Animals was great. Another one in this list that immediately jumps ahead of the rest of them in terms of summer horror movie is 28 years later.
Speaker 2
But as like a blockbuster. Yes.
Yes. That's like true to form.
Speaker 2
He's coming back. Because it's kind of chilly in the movie, right? Yes.
But the movie, there's something about the fact that Danny Boyle has come back. full power.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 Like that movie was shot on a goddamn iPhone 16.
Speaker 2 a bunch of iPhones really insane and also honestly with like $30,000 filters on midlines I went into it not knowing that it was opening up the world for more movies afterwards.
Speaker 2 Yeah, so I I went into it thinking that it was gonna be a standalone so as it got closer to the end
Speaker 2 because it's a trilogy because then the next one's gonna follow
Speaker 2 somebody else and the other one's gonna follow a Ray Fien's character.
Speaker 2
And man, I was just finding out weird shit about Ray Fiennes yesterday, which I didn't know about, but we're not gonna get into that. No, please.
No, No, this is the time.
Speaker 2
I was, I need to look further into it. Okay.
But they were talking, it was like the
Speaker 2 well, it is semi-there have been kind of semi-gations in the past, even though he has said that he was the victim.
Speaker 2 But here's the thing: everyone's like, everybody knows that somebody in Hollywood loves to get, like, he has to get sucked off before every single play performance he does. But here's the thing.
Speaker 2 I believe that he is paying sex workers to do this. So, what's the fucking problem if he's if he's got to get his nut off i mean it's consensual i feel like
Speaker 2 it's not like they're creating jobs
Speaker 2 i feel like you know it yes the mile high club incident but then he blamed
Speaker 2 the flight attendant yeah but also in the end yeah of course he did because he could she couldn't keep his hand also it's all the fucking defense of jk wrong
Speaker 2 well that's different
Speaker 2 for his his boy at this fucking point uh she should go in the trash yeah
Speaker 2
yeah, honestly. As far as I'm fucking up, I never liked any of this shit.
Yeah, I know. I think it all could be fucking worse than God at all.
And the fact that they're making another one.
Speaker 2 They're making another television show.
Speaker 2 Now we're in Justin. You're aiming for your little world.
Speaker 2 People say that I'm Christmas. People say that I'm the angry one.
Speaker 2
Look at how chill I am. They say that I'm the angry one, but I've never been upset in my life.
Look at my fingers. I think Ravenswood.
Speaker 2 What?
Speaker 2 He's turning Indian?
Speaker 2 Indian. God, I think he was located the Gandhi joke.
Speaker 2
Ben Kingsley's half Indian. Is he? Yeah.
Oh, I thought he was all British. I thought so.
Speaker 2
Well, I think there's some overlap there. Yeah, unfortunately.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, Ben Kingsley, that's how we got away with playing Gandhi.
Speaker 2
That's how we got away with it. Oh, I thought it was just the 80s and no one gave a shit.
No, no, no, no, no. That's how I got away with it.
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2
Sorry. You know what? It's another Quincessential One, Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
Of all the time. It's coming back in the theater soon.
It's coming. And I want to see it in the theater.
Speaker 2 Because talk about sweaty movie. Because you ever looked into the trivia of how they made all that? Speaking of.
Speaker 2 Just slapped them a bunch till they cried. Well, no, they had a, I mean, kind of, but they also used a bunch of
Speaker 2
meat. Yeah.
So it was just so disturbing. There was flies everywhere.
And it was just so sweaty. But they didn't do it for artistic reasons, Jackie.
They did it because they had no money. Yeah.
Speaker 2 And they did it because they just had guts. Do you remember when
Speaker 2 we talked about, I forgot where we were, where we were talking about how when we did the murder fist, the butt wise and stuff, but when we went and bought the,
Speaker 2 we thought. that I, it would, you'd have to use real intestines to make it look realistic on camera.
Speaker 2 And so we went and bought a bunch of pig intestines from the butcher leave-ins, like awful from the big, and then we jammed it inside my Santa suit, and then we split it open, and then we ruined the entire floor of the living room and stuff because we thought that it should look a certain way, but then the intestines look so different than what you'd think intestines look like.
Speaker 2
Then it literally, we should have. have just looked like slop.
But we learned nothing, Henry, because we did that the same exact one. What the fuck?
Speaker 2 When we did the monkey statue, that was outside those intestines.
Speaker 2
Those were man-made. Those were very nice intestines.
There were some other stuff because I remember
Speaker 2 they were sticky for sure.
Speaker 2 You were covered in flies. You were in a gorilla suit.
Speaker 2
Horse flies. And they made your suit their home.
Horse flies got all inside of the suit. Your best performance yet.
Thank you. Thank you.
Never going to top it. Honestly, put me in dangerous animals.
Speaker 2
I feel like next up is. No, you'd be thrashing too much.
Oh, yeah. What?
Speaker 2
I'm the monkey. I honestly think.
Congo too.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2
If you were in dangerous animals, you'd scare the sharks away. Why? Because I'm so nice.
You're too thrashy. Oh.
And I honestly just, I just think you'd have a hard time. They love that.
Speaker 2 I think you'd have a hard time getting on the hook.
Speaker 2 Try to catch me. Try to catch me.
Speaker 2
Come on. I'm always going to get away.
Get on the hook, Nana. Get on the hook, Dana.
Speaker 2 Come on, eh, you gay little girl. Ew.
Speaker 2 Ew. Ew.

Speaker 2 This is an ad by BetterHelp. You know,
Speaker 2 I really lost contact with my ascended masters recently. It's been so hard to psychically reach them because so much aluminum is built up in my pituitary gland.
Speaker 2 I guess it's because I've been using all this fancy, dancy, natural deodorant that apparently has extra aluminum in it. But honestly, I just wish I could reach out sometimes.
Speaker 2 You know, it's just nice to make somebody's day. My ascended masters always tell me I'm right and that I'm not too fat for life.
Speaker 2
Some people don't have ascended masters to talk to. Some people wish they could reach out to somebody.
And this season, BetterHelp encourages you to reach out.
Speaker 2 Check in on friends, just like it takes a little courage to send that text or grab coffee with someone or ask one of your ascended masters what's the proper way to destroy communism.
Speaker 2 Reaching out for therapy can also feel difficult, but it can be worth it. So I say you get out there and just like I want to, give a call using the powers of Votan.

Speaker 2 So 28 Years Later also has one of my favorite non-twists in a movie where they do the fun thing of setting up what seems to be some big horrible confrontation.
Speaker 2
And then I actually thought subverted it in a way that really made me surprised and happy. I'm basically talking about spoiler, the Ray Fines, like the reveal of his character.
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2 It's like one of my favorite parts of this movie.
Speaker 2
Because it has like a sweet message behind it. Absolutely.
And she's like, get to know your neighbors. And the concept of the brain.
Speaker 2 Well, and the idea of Memento Mori and how this idea of, which I think, who knows? I wonder if Danny Boyle even knows that he was even kind of even stringing that in.
Speaker 2 I'm certain that he did, like, this idea of, no, remember the dead. Like, now that the dead live, we forgot about what happens when when the living die.
Speaker 2
So now this is a celebration of the still dead. Yeah, and like he does this whole like it's a city of the dead.
And that's kind of, there was like a, he understood something.
Speaker 2
It kind of like, I went to the catacombs in Paris. Yes.
And there's like, when you go down there, the best part about it is the peace. Whoa.
And the silence. Wow.
It is quiet.
Speaker 2 I bet he would have been really upset if they had showed up like when he was only like a third of the way done with his tower.
Speaker 2 He just scumbag. When he was just drawing pictures of it.
Speaker 2
When he just had five skulls? I've got like a lot of ideas. Don't scum back, please.
Don't look at my skulls. It's just the beginning.
It's just the beginning. Big ideas.
Just listen.
Speaker 2
Just think about how big your head is. Imagine how I'll drop the model.
That's like that's the character I've created for Ray Fines. Just imagine.
Hey, look, let me look at that head.
Speaker 2 That's exactly how we did it. Yeah.
Speaker 2 My favorite part about Ray Fines in that movie is like after like, you know,
Speaker 2
we're talking about the end of the movie. But like when he, when he's just like looking at at the kid, like, after the attack, and he's like, you should go.
Yeah.
Speaker 2
Get out of here. But also, I just like the fact that he wasn't a psychopath.
Yeah. I thought it was a beautiful misdirect.
Yes. Yeah.
So that's a very good, that's a very good, very good summer movie.
Speaker 2
I think another candidate for probably, I mean, it's going to come up a lot for best summer movie of 2025 is Weapons. Yes.
Another fairy tale.
Speaker 2
Another fairy tale. Oh, yeah.
Distinctly different
Speaker 2 than a folk story. Yeah.
Speaker 2
I find. Because in folk horror, I feel that the main element is that you're away from society.
Right.
Speaker 2 So what weapons did really well, what the monkey did really well, which I think Osgoode Perkins is doing really well across the board as well, is creating the first modern, like I'm starting, like Natalie and I were talking about this.
Speaker 2 It's like we're finally in the zone of movies where people are no longer like treating cell phones and the internet like it's a fad.
Speaker 2 Like we're finally in modern times where all of the modern stuff is in the movies and that you can still figure out how to make it, not just like, why didn't you just call them on the phone? Right.
Speaker 2 And also the fact of like a witch being able to find a family to prey on like you would think that's or we asked Zach Kreger himself. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2 And he would not answer because I asked one of my questions was, are they actually are they actually related? I was like, they're not because she didn't remember. She went,
Speaker 2 did you shake up? Did you go into the camera?
Speaker 2
Yes, the kid didn't seem like that. I dodged him.
The kid didn't seem like he knew.
Speaker 2 Right. Like he knew her.
Speaker 2 And also the mom is it like, I'm like, oh, oh, I haven't seen her since like I was a kid. So I feel like it was something that was like magicked into her life.
Speaker 2
And then the father said something along the lines, you haven't seen her in 15 years, which was another like number that jumped out of nowhere. Right.
And they kind of said it.
Speaker 2 And she acted all like, because it sounds like she had occupied the body of her former aunt. That's the reason why when she arrived, it wasn't that scary.
Speaker 2 But then the reason why Aunt Gladys had all the makeup all over her face is that she was trying to approximate being a human, but that was she was riding around in her aunt's body.
Speaker 2
So that's my take on the lore. So what? So it's just like a traveling witch soul? It's like, yes, it's like an entity.
It's using bodies. Yeah, it's an entity.
Speaker 2 But what I loved about weapons weapons also was that
Speaker 2 the part of the summer part of it is that Stephen King
Speaker 2 kids are deeply vulnerable feeling.
Speaker 2 Like the idea of like, because it takes place in a neighborhood that we think back on in our own childhoods about the idea of like playing out until the lights went out.
Speaker 2
Like playing until you went until the sun came down. Like meeting all the fun kids, getting on their like semi-serious kid adventures.
Yes. You know? Well, that's what it is.
Speaker 2
I think it's also expanding the world of like a child has a whole insular world. Kid adventure.
No, you don't have to be a kid. Much as you're just walked in a basement staring into nothing.
Speaker 2
It depends on your type of adventure. I can literally make anything an adventure.
It is a journey for that kid, though, of like what that kid went through.
Speaker 2 Because it is the kind of thing where, you know, so many dangerous, horrible things do happen within like suburbs.
Speaker 2 And I think it's also playing on that when people are like, well, why didn't the kids say anything? It's like,
Speaker 2 he was terrified. Oh, he's pretty.
Speaker 2
Like, if I was a kid, I wouldn't have said anything. I saved for my peace.
Yeah, like, I wouldn't have done that.
Speaker 2 And then Shridub Zach Kreger said that it was all, there was an allegorical thing within it about what it's like to live with alcoholism. Where you can get this complete sense.
Speaker 2 This idea of this thing comes into your house.
Speaker 2
Dad, mom used to be normal. Right.
And then all of a sudden this thing comes. Everybody's different.
Speaker 2
I don't know how to accurately describe it to anybody because it doesn't maybe necessarily make any sense. Right.
You know, like, I don't. It's scary and different.
Speaker 2 And it's like, you don't know if other kids also deal with that.
Speaker 2
Well, they all, but then you turn out they're all secretly dealing with it because they're all in the basement. I have a there's a movie trope that was in weapons.
It's been in a lot of movies.
Speaker 2
It was in it. It's in a lot.
It's not just horror movies. It's a movie trope that has always
Speaker 2
bothered me. All right.
Whenever people have to cut themselves in a movie, they always slice their entire palm of their hand. I have joked about this.
Speaker 2
That's the most impractical place on your body. It's going to be a good thing.
It hurts to cut you.
Speaker 2
You got to use your hand, especially when you're fighting to the death. You're like just about to go.
You're going to go on a big mission. Don't you want full use of your palms? Yes.
Speaker 2 That always drives me crazy.
Speaker 2
We're blood brothers. Like, we could just cut our arms and like lean against each other.
Yeah, dude.
Speaker 2 It always makes me so crazy. So
Speaker 2 Like, prick your finger. Even pricking your finger falls.
Speaker 2 Blood is still
Speaker 2
blood. Why does it have to be so much blood? Elbow.
That's a filthy knife. You killed someone with that knife.
Now you're cutting your hand.
Speaker 2
Hell yeah, bro. It drives me nuts every time.
That's the reason why they, I feel like that's why they've been cutting it up, man.
Speaker 2
Well, I mean, that's what the, I mean, the witch, she doesn't, you know, I guess nothing matters for her. No.
Yeah, right. Well, for her, you know, well, it turns out she can go a step too far.
Speaker 2
And it's one of my favorite endings in a movie all year. Oh, it is.
It's genuinely funny.
Speaker 2
I love the darkly comedic moments of weapons. It really just, it made a fun, what a fun theater experience.
And I think that's what makes a summer
Speaker 2
horror movie. People cheering.
Yeah. All of it.
Like the monkey. Monkey was awesome.
The monkey kind of blew my mind. It should have came out in the summer.
Yes. But the monkey blew my mind.
Speaker 2
The monkey was way better than it had any right being. Osgood Perkins is also just kind of like printing movies out.
Yeah. He's made like three in the last year.
Speaker 2
But I think that. He did Long Legs and what else? Long Legs.
There's another one coming. Keeper.
Keeper's Coming. Keeper.
Yeah, Keeper's Coming. Keeper looks good.
Speaker 2
But The Monkey, I thought The Monkey was... Oh, I didn't realize he did The Black Coat's Daughter.
Black Coat's Daughter is one of the best movies of the last year.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I didn't realize that was also Oz Perkins. Yeah, that was the thing.
Black Coat's Daughter was, I think, way better than Longlegs. Long legs.
Oh, yeah. Way better.
Speaker 2
Yeah. And so was the, I mean, the monkey was just wonderful.
I've got the lot of legs on.
Speaker 2 I, yeah.
Speaker 2 Honestly, that's what I did love about weapons. I know what I love about weapons is that
Speaker 2 me and Henry like too much.
Speaker 2
Obviously, I feel like there wasn't enough of the long legs in long legs, and that's what weapons gave you. It gave me more.
I wanted to see more of the creepy fucking character.
Speaker 2
It's funny that you even say that. I actually think long legs gave us too much long legs.
Oh, I wanted even more. This one squirted all over it.
Speaker 2 My issue with long legs will be my issue with anything that involves magic or
Speaker 2 any of that stuff.
Speaker 2 I want to just watch them cook. I know.
Speaker 2 The problem is, is that when you just have someone just kind of like blanketly just say like, hail Satan and stuff, like it should, to me, it shows that no one's done any research. Any research.
Speaker 2 And I i feel like and that that's like that's like that's my one of my pet peeves i understand one of my big pet peeves is misuse of pentagrams and misuse of witch paraphernalia in film and like that's why like with zach krager because you think people are like gonna see that and think you're evil no i no i think that it's just incorrect it's just not how it just doesn't it's not it's just obviously not doing the research it just makes me immediately not scared anymore.
Speaker 2 I mean, like, oh, well, you have no idea what you're talking about anymore. Where like weapons, the reason why it's so successful is because
Speaker 2 the magic in it is indecipherable and nobody really talks about like bring her back.
Speaker 2 What's awesome about bring her back is what they don't explain and the fact that they only have to show you little snippets of the ritual for you to kind of understand what's happening and you don't have to overexplain it.
Speaker 2
Bring her back. Use an actual demonic name.
Something that was like, they went the step ahead and did the proper research. They googled.
Speaker 2
They did all of the stuff that they should have done to Philip Brothers. It wouldn't would take much, honestly, to figure out more than what, like, you're right.
And I completely agree with you.
Speaker 2 At that point, it's like, it's almost like if you're going to do a movie including it, it's just lazy not to do any re if you're going to include it.
Speaker 2 Satan doesn't give the powers of putting the souls of children in ventriloquist dummies that you have to leave places. Like, that's where Long Legs lost me: was once it got into all the
Speaker 2
steps that he had to do. That is like what that was Long Legs' big fault.
When you overexplain the shit, exactly. Give me almost nothing.
Speaker 2 That's what I loved about weapons: that even with the ritual, they showed parts of the ritual, but I like that even the parts that were shown make sense in ritualistic magic of like the inclusion of the blood, like
Speaker 2 and the kid was able to understand it in two seconds. Two seconds, exactly.
Speaker 2 And Bring Her Back is also a great example of mystery and how much mystery brings to the table and how we just don't need every single fucking detail.
Speaker 2
No, and my problem is that every time I think of Bring Her Back, I sing, Bring Her Back from Leigh Miz. Don't look at me like that.
Oh, I just didn't know. Let him live.
The ARG thing is so cool.
Speaker 2
Oh, I know. Yeah, Bring Her Back and all these stuff.
They created their own fake Russian eBay. Black Angels.
Speaker 2
Blackangeltapes.net. Yeah.
Sweet. Can you buy stuff from them? It says that bids are paused right now due to popularity.
Yeah.
Speaker 2
But on here, it's cool because they have the talk to me hand as a little backstory on here. Yeah, and they have like the tape.
They have the tape from that that she was watching in order
Speaker 2
for her to like put together the ritual. Like, it's fun.
See, it's this is all building the lore out. Right now, they're looking for the hand.
That's the one. See, their hand is wanted.
Yeah.
Speaker 2
And there's footage of it the last time that it was seen. That's awesome.
Oh, that's really cool. And there was an incident.
Yeah, no.
Speaker 2
No, Philbrook Brothers, they got that shit unlocked. I love those guys.
They know know what they're doing. They got the new movie.
They know what's going on. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, man. So
Speaker 2
this year, obviously, we're loving it. There's some good stuff coming out soon.
Him, I feel like, looks very good. Heen.
Speaker 2 The football horror movie.
Speaker 2
Oh, yeah, that does look fun. I think that it should be interesting because there's been a couple of.
I'm trying to think. Well, Devil's Advocate was a lawyer-based Devil horror.
Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2
Keanu Reeves outfits. Wait, are they redoing it? No.
No, no, no. And he's got you jumping from one foot to the next.
Speaker 2
And he's living his sip locking ass off because God is a satist. Freshman year, that was my birthday party.
Yay. Is that Henry screaming that? Yeah, I wish.
Speaker 2 We would have just kicked his little ass.
Speaker 2 His little 13-year-old Al Pegina.
Speaker 2
No, I love that movie. No, I think that this should be good.
But again, will they be able to make a Faustian tale scary?
Speaker 2
I hope they can. I'll watch it.
I'll definitely watch them try to do it. That's for damn sure.
I think about a horror movie has to be scary for me to like it. See, I find that that is.
Speaker 2
I wasn't scared of weapons. Well, the view is, but there's a difference.
I enjoyed it as like an action movie almost. But you know what I would say? There's a distinct difference between scary,
Speaker 2 dreadful,
Speaker 2 disgusting,
Speaker 2
disconcerting. It depends on what the level is.
Like upsetting to you.
Speaker 2 Weapons straight up has one of the best jump scares in the entire year.
Speaker 2
Which one? When it cuts to the ceiling. Oh, that's that's old hat.
No, but dude, that's like that. That's crazy.
That's horrible shit. Dude, that's horror movie core.
Speaker 2 But there's a distinct difference between cheap, there is a difference between cheap jump scares and a genuine jump scare. Oh, it's like when someone just opens a bathroom mirror, everything, right?
Speaker 2 Where they just use sound design to make you scared.
Speaker 2 Where in weapons, what's great about the jump scare, it shows that Zach Kreger actually knows what he's doing, is that the vibe of the movie changes in an instant after that fucking right like if you know
Speaker 2 that jump scare is also functions of the movie yeah so like that's what was interesting but it was a conjuring scare but again that horror movies need those things like what's a comedy movie without laughing sure you know like that's how I view that where it's like I hate comedy where you're supposed to go
Speaker 2 dramed yes I hate phantom thread
Speaker 2 I actually re-watched Phantom Thread and I'm actually kind of more on the side of liking it really Oh, no, it's great. You should watch it again.
Speaker 2
I just have heard Henry yell about Phantom Thread since he saw Phantom Thread. I'm back to you.
Go in and you're like, this man is a moron. I know he's a moron.
You're going to love the movie.
Speaker 2
As soon as I realized, oh, it's supposed to be funny. Yeah.
Then I relaxed on it. Okay.
And then I was watching it, but then it's still like a,
Speaker 2 it's like, if it's a comedy, it's in my
Speaker 2
lowest 50. But at least I understand that it's a comedy.
Yeah. So like I understand the performances more and what he's going for.
But that's my thing is that horror, like
Speaker 2 it does need to create a sense of, I think if it doesn't scare you at some point, the horror movie could be considered a failure. So what if it just makes you upset?
Speaker 2
I actually think that that's a great goal. I think just making me upset is fine.
Yes.
Speaker 2
I think it's a great goal. It's like the movie Threads, right? Threads is a post-apocalyptic.
It is a truly terrifying account of
Speaker 2 an alternative history. It's an alternative history, but that it is so upsetting.
Speaker 2 But it is technically just a post-apocalyptic movie, but it's a drama movie. That is a horror.
Speaker 2
I don't want to see that. I'm horrified by the movie.
What about the road? Is the road a horror movie? I guess I don't know. I would view the road as a sci-fi apocalyptic movie.
Speaker 2
Okay, so it's more science fiction. So you're right.
So that's the distinction because that's sci-fi versus like threat. But is an alternate history, is that in like inherently sci-fi? I don't know.
Speaker 2
I would say yes. Okay.
What about Predator? Is that sci-fi or is that a pretty good? Oh my god. Killer of killers.
Did you guys see Predator killer?
Speaker 2 Predator of killer is the best thing you've ever seen.
Speaker 2 I'm waiting to watch both of them at once. Oh,
Speaker 2
so good. I say Predator, sci-fi action.
Sci-fi action. Alien sci-fi horror.
Okay. Also, have you been watching Alien Earth? Is it good? I watched the first episode.
People
Speaker 2
every single time I've watched one of these horror television shows, people hate television. You hate TV shows.
She's just bad at it. It's just no matter what the television show is, you hate it.
Speaker 2
There's so much good TV out there. But I just, is it good? Yes.
Yes. No, Alien.
I'm asking about Alien. No, I only watched the first episode.
Speaker 2
I've watched some. I've watched some TV.
It's fine.
Speaker 2 It's fine. Yeah.
Speaker 2 I'm going to keep watching.
Speaker 2
I watch everything aliens. I've watched Xenomorphs.
Same, but I'm watching Project Runway right now. What? I got Project Runway.
Top Chef just stopped.TV. That's trash.
Top Chef just stopped.
Speaker 2
I'm watching Aaron Hernandez series again. Yes.
I know you haven't seen Together yet, but I will throw it out there. It is fun.
It is. No, I can't wait.
But I'm not a huge Dave Franco fan.
Speaker 2 This is the thing. Yeah, I was just about to say,
Speaker 2
and I never, I hate, every time I say this, I end up regretting it. Yes.
But I just don't like his face. Bro, and here's the thing: watching the movie, you're not going to like it anymore.
Speaker 2 That together, the main issue I have with the movie Together is that Allison Bree is just such a better actress than Dave Franco.
Speaker 2 That it is just like going head-to-head, even though I know they did it together. I know they're in a relationship.
Speaker 2 She's just so good, and he's just
Speaker 2
a little bit of a shit. He really did.
She's just like, it is still a great, fun movie, but she is definitely like carrying him. He does as much as he can.
Speaker 2 You know, it is, I still really like the movie.
Speaker 2 I'm sure he's wonderful and I'm wrong and all this stuff, but it's just every time I'm like, I don't like him, just like, like, you know, because you feel that sometimes.
Speaker 2 And I used to hate Jack Black for no reason, you know, like and then you're like oh well oh yeah oh that's on me yeah yeah yeah yeah
Speaker 2 but no
Speaker 2 he is extremely talented
Speaker 2 he's gonna go i with eddie redmain i just think that you know obviously i think he's a hack well let's just move on
Speaker 2 and
Speaker 2 other movies coming out this year i'm excited for um frankenstein i think is going to be a lot of fun Black Phone 2 is going to be a fucking, that looks amazing. It looks really good.
Speaker 2
You know what we didn't talk about, though? We didn't really even talk about it at the time because we couldn't was sinners. Oh, yeah.
We've never really talked about how that movie.
Speaker 2 What I actually like now, even more thinking on Sinners, I've been watching it now twice. It's like it's actually a really fun
Speaker 2
throwback. Yeah.
To a 90s, like I saw the opening, and I had the original comparison of my mind of Dustal Dawn. Of course, because it's very similar, but it's classy.
It's digestible.
Speaker 2 But then I started to realize it's more,
Speaker 2
we have Dust Till Dawn. He's now made a 2020s Dust Till Dawn.
Yeah. But Dust Till Dawn's almost 30 years old.
I have. Tell me.
Tell me about it.
Speaker 2 But it was like one of those where it's like, he made a movie that... combines all of the really fun aspects of a horror action mixed with the drama.
Speaker 2
Great soundtrack. Talk about a spuber style.
Oh, I'm looking at the from Dust Till Dawn. Yeah, sounds much snake snake baby.
Shake them big old dirty bags, Selma. Cover her feathers and grease.
Speaker 2 Man, by the way,
Speaker 2 if you have free time, following Selma Hayek on Instagram is quite a twist. Oh, interesting.
Speaker 2 I might have to check this out for
Speaker 2 my purposes.
Speaker 2 I think it's okay. I think it's allowed.
Speaker 2 I don't know if Selma is going to be reaching out.
Speaker 2
Well, she's married to like a billionaire Frenchman. She might get boring.
Next up is going to be Ed Larson. Oh, my God.
Hey, you know who followed me this morning? Who? Spud the Cryptid. Oh,
Speaker 2
is that a dog? Yeah. Cute.
That's cute. Yeah, no tits on that.
No tits. You can glue them to them.
Yep. Yeah, let's see what happens.
Speaker 2 I'm fishing for it.
Speaker 2
All right. Predator Badlands is going to be great.
We didn't finish talking about sinners. Oh, sure.
I'm sorry. I mean, is there anything you want to add?
Speaker 2
I mean, I just truly love it, and it should have come out in the summer. Yeah.
And what I do love is... It was the beginning of what you probably call the summer season, right?
Speaker 2 It's guaranteed of any of the movies that we've talked about today, it's the only one that's, I think, guaranteed to get a best picture nomination. Yeah, probably.
Speaker 2
Is Eddington a horror movie? No. No, I guess it's not.
It's just a draw. It's a very upsetting drama.
Yeah, it's great. Did you see it? Yeah, I did.
Yeah. Very upsetting drama.
Speaker 2
I like Bo is Afraid a lot, I think, a lot more. Me too.
I laugh more. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 As my time has
Speaker 2 been with it, it's my least favorite of his movies.
Speaker 2 I understand the sentiment. I love it.
Speaker 2
Just because I say it's my least favorite of his movies is like me saying, oh, it's my least favorite Rolling Stones album. I love all of them.
Yes.
Speaker 2
You know, but it's the one I would probably watch the least. If I had to choose a movie to watch of his, I would choose that one last.
Yeah. Yes.
But because, again, it's mostly the subject matter.
Speaker 2
Yeah. Oh, I would probably the order that came out is how good they are.
Yeah, well, yeah. Hereditary is hard to put that fucking back in the bottom.
Speaker 2 Hereditary is just like a perfect film. It's
Speaker 2 so good. I am now
Speaker 2
a fall movie. Yes.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Very much so.
A summer movie. I view the Hereditary as probably in my top five horror movies of all time.
Yeah. I would say so.
Oh, for me as well.
Speaker 2
It's crawled all the way to the top. Bring her backs up there for me.
It's getting there. Bring her back.
Talk to me also. It's so good.
Speaker 2 Talk to me.
Speaker 2 Talk to me is an amazing. Well, I think I've said before, it's just the
Speaker 2 just
Speaker 2 a very first really good Zoomer horror movie. You're doing like an actual good horror movie with young people in it.
Speaker 2
Ooh. That's what, that's what, that's why I feel like talk to me is.
I guess I was thinking honestly. Because like bodies, bodies, bodies was lame.
The other, what else did I see?
Speaker 2
It was fun. It was more fun than I expected.
You know what it is? Honestly, it's an airplane movie. I am.
Yes. I am over slasher parodies.
I'm just fucking over slasher parodies.
Speaker 2
I just think we've done them to fucking. Well, that was the thing.
So honestly, I was looking up last night other summer horror movies, and on so many lists is Final Girls.
Speaker 2 I've never seen Final Girls. It is a comedy.
Speaker 2 But it was on every list. And I'm not usually...
Speaker 2 It's a meta-horror movie. It's a commentary movie.
Speaker 2 So it's another movie that basically I'm not going to go and meanly say that it ripped off Cabin in the Woods, but I am going to say it's the same exact vibe as Cabin in the Woods. Okay, okay.
Speaker 2
So it's fun. Okay, it's fun.
It's fun. It's a fun movie.
It's very entertaining. How has that movie never gotten a sequel? Cabin in the woods.
Speaker 2
I don't need it. No.
It's too good, man.
Speaker 2
It's just don't touch. Yeah, please.
Don't touch it. Yeah, don't put that out in the world.
But I understand you, I'm surprised they didn't try to capitalize on it. Yeah.

All right, here's the other one that is a sequel that came out this year that is considered, it's labeled a horror movie. I don't think it is.
Megan 2.0. It's an action movie.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I had a really good time with it. Action comedy, for sure.
I think
Speaker 2
I had a lot of fun. It left the genre.
To another genre. It really did.
Yes, but it's like, I found it very entertaining, but it is nowhere near what Megan was, but still, what can be.
Speaker 2 But I love the idea of expanding the lore. Yeah.
Speaker 2 Like, I still, like expanding the lore into a sequel that's really smart makes me happy like the idea of what they're saying about terrifier 4 being in his world and finding out the origin of art the clown i am a fucking soccer for that shit so like just like again that's my ip art the clowns my marvel extended universe i understand i mean those movies are mine but is war of the worlds war of the worlds i want everybody to go well you know what?
Speaker 2 Definitely sci-fi. Give my the only reason why I made Jackie watch an hour ago.
Speaker 2
We have to at least talk about it. I, I, Henry forced me to watch the first hour of last night.
I want you all to watch the War of the Worlds. I will say, I laughed.
I want you to pirate
Speaker 2 this movie. I'm saying this out loud.
Speaker 2
I want you to pirate this movie. And that's given it a lot of grace.
That 3%.
Speaker 2
I am going to say it's been a very long time since I've seen a movie that is so bad. I got you.
It comes all the way back around. And then he takes
Speaker 2
I got you. So the movie takes place on a computer screen.
It's Ice Cube. He works for the NSA.
It's the same exact storyline as War of the Worlds, but it was shot during 2020.
Speaker 2
And so it's all from the perspective of his desktop computer and all of these people in isolation around him. And he can't leave the room.
So it's
Speaker 2 glasses. So a whole movie.
Speaker 2
It's so bad. My favorite parts are, so he misuses his job at the NSA.
He's terrifying. Honestly, he's
Speaker 2
maybe that is a horror movie. That's what I mean.
You're right. Oh, my God, Henry.
You're so right. He is a horror movie.
He's terrifying. So Ice Q plays.
He does a good job. So, no.
No, no.
Speaker 2 Ice 2 basically does like his. Essentially, he's playing the same
Speaker 2 character as from Are We There Yet? But he works for the NSA. Yes.
Speaker 2 I like to believe that
Speaker 2 story.
Speaker 2 So he's just going like, it's like, what's my damn daughter doing out with some boy, right?
Speaker 2 And he's watching it as an NSA employer from like body cams and from security cams and from her own computer and hacking into her phone and doing all this stuff.
Speaker 2 Constant surveillance of his daughter, who's in her probably 30s, who's pregnant, like, and also reading her text messages.
Speaker 2 Yeah, like being able to follow her wherever because he could just hack into any drone or like see camera.
Speaker 2
But the movie is trying to say he's a hero. Isn't he a funny dad? And you're like, no, he works for the goddamn NSA.
He's abusing his power.
Speaker 2
Also, if he wasn't abusing his power, maybe he would have been able to stop the alien invasion. Exactly.
And he did leave. That's what I kept saying.
Speaker 2
He's a desktop. I don't know.
And then remember the whole smash cut montage of him putting numbers into a spreadsheet? Into a literal Excel sheet? And it's like,
Speaker 2
and then, like, he's so disconnected from the action that he's watching his son get attacked by aliens from a drone. And he's going, get away from it.
Ron, you gotta run. They're behind you.
Speaker 2
Get out of there. Ron.
Gay, quit messing with that stuff. Ron.
And then when he goes to run or get his kids and he gets to the door of his office and he goes,
Speaker 2 I'm locked in.
Speaker 2 I'm locked in.
Speaker 2
It's so bad. So bad.
But I will say, I was watching it alone and stoned. I watch it with friends.
It is so I'm not gonna watch it. I am not gonna let you.
I already told Rob.
Speaker 2
I was like, Rob, I need you to come over. I was like, we're gonna have a boys' night.
We're gonna watch this movie. If we all sat and smoked blunts.
Yes. And watch his eyes.
Speaker 2 I just don't want to. It's just
Speaker 2
choosing to watch a really bad movie on Amazon is like two things I hate. So you don't like, you're not a big, like, ironic movie watcher.
I hate the room. I think the room shouldn't exist.
Speaker 2 I hate that people enjoy going to see the room. I think
Speaker 2
they just don't like it. This is trash.
Well, because it's fucking. Also, they gave it millions of dollars.
We could have done anything with that fucking money.
Speaker 2
Watch a little ice cube. Watch a little look, Ice Cube.
You know what? I want to see. Ice Cube's on tour.
I want to see Ice Cube. I want to see it wild.
Speaker 2
Only if he's doing snippets of War of the Worlds. Oh, get away from that song.
Hey, get out of there. Oh, my God.
That's an alien. The monsters were so.
Speaker 2
Just because you made a movie during COVID doesn't mean you have to release it. They're like, take the fucking loss.
Well,
Speaker 2 so much time has now passed that it has definitely went to another distributor.
Speaker 2 And so much time has passed that already the movie that was made, the movie that was spent to make the movie has already been. It's like fucking in Christmas of time memorial.
Speaker 2
Now they can get it all. Now this is how they make their money.
You know, Ice Cube is like, oh, man, I really dodged a bullet. So happy that movie didn't come out.
Thanks for the check, y'all.
Speaker 2
And then all of a sudden. Oh, shit.
Oh, man. Get away from that stuff.
Speaker 2
That's what I would say to Ice Cube. Next time you see that script, oh, man, get away from that stuff.
Shot it at his own house. He's just like, he looks like he just got in a fight with his wife.
Speaker 2 Every single person in this movie is shooting it from their home. Like, yes, the only people.
Speaker 2 Because you notice the only people who had to leave anywhere were the two two kids. Evil-looking Goria is just like on her iPhone, just
Speaker 2
on an airbud. And that was the other thing, too.
This is a lady who works for NASA. IceCube works for NSA.
They both have Airbuds in.
Speaker 2 They're both like in these high-intensity situations wearing airbuds.
Speaker 2 Yeah, I know it's extraordinary.
Speaker 2
I don't think it works like that. Oh, man.
I am glad you made me watch it.
Speaker 2
Henry, thank you. Oh, no.
I'm locked in here.
Speaker 2 oh no I do love your anger Eddie towards watching really bad it's like the same reason why I hate skinnamerink I just can't see anything that she hated getting
Speaker 2 against Skinnamarinked as well but Skinnamarinked I felt like everybody was fooled the room at least the problem the problem with the room in the end is
Speaker 2 Tommy Wissot did not learn
Speaker 2 it's like we all were kind of hoping he's only been rewarded yes yes and he did not learn what because because he was incapable of understanding what he did wrong with the room.
Speaker 2
Eventually, what happened is that we all told him. He thinks he got nominated for an Oscar.
He made the room thinking it was the most important movie of all time.
Speaker 2
We showed up as an audience and told him this movie is hilarious. Instead of him saying, oh my God, I don't know how to make movies.
He's like, I'm hilarious. Perfect.
Speaker 2 And then he started making comedies. And then he made an office comedy that is, if you want to see something that's worse.
Speaker 2 And because the room is not trying to be funny,
Speaker 2
you should see his office situation. Oh, when he tells jokes.
When he does his own style of David Brent,
Speaker 2 like office management comedy.
Speaker 2
You should lose some brain cells watching that. I don't know.
You should allow
Speaker 2 your blood pressure to sort of spike. I don't know.
Speaker 2 Blood pressure is so low.
Speaker 2 Oh, so we got bumping up. I feel like I'm going to be able to get it
Speaker 2
set more. It's like the one thing I got good.
Oh, wow. Yeah, dude, for you.
No, dude. Let's fucking ruin that.
You got to watch it. It's called the name.
And you say low, but it's normal. Oh.
Speaker 2 We just don't understand.
Speaker 2
Yeah, ours is just through the roof. So I was like, actually, I had a coup.
My blood pressure was the highest level of normal it could be, though, the last time, though, but I was normal.
Speaker 2 Did you have a
Speaker 2 now?
Speaker 2
I feel like I'm usually not a nay bay over here. Usually I like things that other people like.
I'm not going to be able to do that. You're very puzzled.
Speaker 2
But honestly, Heretic was one of those movies that everyone was like, it's so good. It's so good.
And then I watched it and I was just like,
Speaker 2 the first
Speaker 2 40 minutes were great.
Speaker 2
I thought it ended badly, but I like Hugh Jackman and not Hugh Jackman. Fucking Hugh Grant.
Who is this? The Toe Suffrage?
Speaker 2
Toe Sucker. Hugh Grant.
Toe sucker.
Speaker 2 He is fun in it, and I like seeing him in a different, fun way. He's a Mormon, right?
Speaker 2
He's not a Mormon. There are two Mormons that he's doing sort of.
The Mormons of the Heroes? Yeah, sort of. Yeah.
Speaker 2
They're like, they do a good job. They don't lean on the Mormon stuff too much.
It's just like more showing this guy is like a very...
Speaker 2
obviously pretentious sociopathic, psychopathic, atheist. And so he wants them to explain God and stuff.
So it's like the beginning of it's really fun.
Speaker 2 And then it kind of just doesn't, it kind of fizzles out a little bit for me.
Speaker 2 I was more surprised at everyone, because like it has 91% on rotten tomatoes.
Speaker 2 So it is one of those that I was like, I'm not coming in trying to be a a hater, but I thought the end really shit the bed for me personally.
Speaker 2
I understand why some people are like, he's just like, you know what, I believe. Yep.
And no, it got like, I got to say, was that really the end of the day? No,
Speaker 2
it got supernatural. It got crazy.
It got
Speaker 2 a whole thing where instead of you went down there and there was like, yeah, it just got
Speaker 2
just like turned supernatural at the very end. Like House of a Thousand Corpses, like really, that bothered me.
I went out super. I liked it.
I liked, I loved the movie. House of a thousand corpses.
Speaker 2
Don't get me wrong. I like House of Azerbai Corpses, but I feel like the movie would have been way more terrifying if it never went supernatural.
You know what?
Speaker 2 The thing is, is that I will prefer it, though, to go crazy than the nothing happened.
Speaker 2
That's society. Like the movie society, that to me is like perfect.
Like something, if you're going to go off the rails, go fucking out
Speaker 2 the rails.
Speaker 2 But nothing I hate even more than when a bunch of stuff has happened in a movie. Oh, and then they just wake up and the house is fine.
Speaker 2
That's the the kind of shit that makes. That it's like, why have I wasted my life watching somebody dream? It's like, the gate does that.
Yes. I love the gate.
Yeah, but it's stupid. It's so.
Speaker 2
Was that Johnny Depp? No, no. It's just some kids and little monsters.
The only thing about the gate that makes me
Speaker 2
favorite. No, Steven Dorf.
You're Stephen Dorr. The problem with the gate is that it's PG-13.
Is that it's PG-818? That's the issue. It's a sick 80s horror schlock.
It's so fun. I like the gate.
Speaker 2 I'm not a gate hater. You know what I like?
Speaker 2 What I'd
Speaker 2 rather watch than the gate? Stay tuned. Oh, anytime.
Speaker 2 And I know that it has a yucko in it, but I will say that. The movie's got yuckos.
Speaker 2
Do you have any yuckos? You gotta fucking get a muck. He plays the devil.
I know, and stay tuned scared the shit out of me when I was little.
Speaker 2 Like this movie, because we were watching it and stuff, and this scared me the most. This movie legitimately has some like deeply unsettling things outside of the, you know.
Speaker 2 I mean, yeah but he was also before he was great he was a great pervert man really good at it jeffrey jones is an excellent pedophile actor
Speaker 2 there is no i feel like that's fine it's like saying bill cosby is the funniest rapist of all time and you're that's allowed that is a statement that is said now
Speaker 2 who's funnier oh my boy name one funnier
Speaker 2 i'm racking my brain one funnier i don't think i can name one funnier that's what i'm saying
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2 Hmm.
Speaker 2 Can't. All right, so, but while we're on this horrible subject, you know what is considered a summertime horror movie? What?
Speaker 2 Jeepers Creepers. Oh,
Speaker 2 Jeepers Creepers.
Speaker 2
Make them a list. Yeah, that's one we can't really forgive.
I was going to make everybody do this for this movie episode.
Speaker 2 There was a part of me that wanted us each to choose three films from a canceled director to put forward as she'd be back into the lexicon.
Speaker 2
but legitimately, all three of mine are Roman Polanski's, so I don't really understand. It doesn't count.
He's never left.
Speaker 2 He's the only one that truly is, unfortunately, almost kind of indispensable in terms of being a sex criminal and an artist. You know what I mean?
Speaker 2
But it's hard to because, like, you know, I don't, I'm not going to let him touch my Carmy. No.
Yeah, I'm not going to let him watch him.
Speaker 2 Oh, yeah.
Speaker 2 You know, he's Polish. You probably thought they were adults.
Speaker 2 Come on. Hey, come on.
Speaker 2 Let's forgive him. How about
Speaker 2
the Sleep Away Camp series? Oh, baby, I love Sleepaway Camp. I like two the most.
Yes, I agree. Really? Yeah, absolutely.
Sleep away. I'll go back and watch it.
It's really, really good.
Speaker 2
Also, you know what's my favorite July 4th horror movie of all time? What? It has nothing to do with the holiday at all. But it's my favorite.
Still, Tales from the Hood. Oh, Tales from the Hood.
Speaker 2
I was thinking about that movie. It's a really good movie.
Tales from the Hood is my favorite. I would put that.
Great soundtrack. Yes.
Yes.
Speaker 2 And I also really appreciate having a full-on, like, if we're throwing all these movies in on July 4th, like having that movie, which is probably the center of the voice of African-American voices in horror at the time, like all of those voices in that one movie is like.
Speaker 2
It's powerful, man. That fucking movie's good as fuck.
And guess what, though? Guess what? It's not a party movie. Because I have tossed it on a couple times in a party thing.
Speaker 2
And it's just never a party movie. No, it is not.
It makes people really bummed out. Yeah, it's awesome.
Just the, just the little doll part you could do. It's my favorite.
Speaker 2 Because think of it as like shorts, you know?
Speaker 2
Just show like that part. I feel like you could do that.
It's very good and it's genuinely scary and
Speaker 2 it's upsetting and it's got a lot of fucking shit in it. Hell yeah.
Speaker 2 Man, can I also just throw it out there hot take? Can we stop making conjuring movies?
Speaker 2 I feel like our people are going to be able to get away from the brain. How is that
Speaker 2
going to go? He's going to get into his career. I know we're all worried about it, but are like...
The last one was unforgivable. I guess people are still going.
Remember, Henry?
Speaker 2
I think we saw, what was that, the second or the third? I got you, baby, I got you, baby, I got you, baby, I got you. That was insidious, too.
Oh, that was insidious. So I mean, honestly,
Speaker 2 I feel like it is that world of like, like, if conjuring again, if you're going to go full circle and go, like, bat shit, all right, I guess keep going.
Speaker 2
If you're going to final destination, me, keep fucking going. I think it's just because they're all locked in.
I think that Patrick Wilson has information on some of these. How many are they missing?
Speaker 2
I think this is it. I think this is it.
This is it. It's last ones.
Speaker 2
Jesus Christ. Oh, my God.
There's been so many last ones, but this should be fine. You know what's fucked up, though, is that I give it my money every time.
I do end up with my life.
Speaker 2
I give it my money every time. I always end up with my life.
I might skip this one.
Speaker 2
I'm close. Only because the last one was so bad.
It was so bad. And the idea of the...
The last one was really, really bad. But I did learn.
Speaker 2 The second one was kind of fun, at least. But I learned all
Speaker 2
the differences between a nighttime Satanist and a daytime Satanist. What? I remember.
But I remember, remember you saying that? That there was nighttime Satanists and there was daytime Satanists.
Speaker 2
Yeah, sure. People with jobs.
Sure, sure, sure. Yeah.
Yeah. Honestly, though, this is what a good episode, guys.
Speaker 2
I want to give a shout out to Piranha 3D. Piranha 3D was really fun.
Oh, hell yeah. Also, The Hills Have Eyes.
That's also another
Speaker 2 summer, sweaty horror movie. Also, I believe the Friday the 13th series is the summer
Speaker 2
horror icon. But four and seven are the ones to watch.
Yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I would say that Friday the 13th, and this is probably where I'll get in the hot water, is the least
Speaker 2
best of the iconos. Of course it is.
Iconos is thinking.
Speaker 2
They call it a ripoff. And I love Freddy Krueger.
Do not get me wrong. No, that's Jason.
Speaker 2 I know.
Speaker 2
I'm talking about separate. I'm like, I love Nightmare on Um Street.
Oh, yeah, my private.
Speaker 2
Friday's the, Freddy's the best. Freddy's been my favorite horror character of all time.
Really? Over Art the Clown. Yes.
Wow. I call Freddie.
I'm Michael Myers. Freddy's the OJ, dude.
Speaker 2
Michael Myers, my favorite. Yeah, I do love Michael.
He's the best. He's evil in car.
But Freddy's, that's the top of the fucking. It's Freddy and Pinhead.
Top.
Speaker 2
Getting got in your sleep still, I mean, still creeps me the fuck. I mean, just thinking about the man with the hat.
Number three.
Speaker 2
Number three? What? Leprechaun. Yeah.
He's your number three.
Speaker 2 Because of Warwick Davis.
Speaker 2 Wow.
Speaker 2 Warwick Davis. Don't think
Speaker 2 that. Then 150%.
Speaker 2
You are correct. Every minute he's on screen.
Have you mixed that movie so often? Have you watched every single one of the leprechauns? Yes. They really.
Speaker 2 Warwick does show up, but not a lot of the other people do. But when
Speaker 2 Warwick is on fucking screen, you're right.
Speaker 2 He is
Speaker 2
legitimately the GOAT. He's a Sian Stealer.
He is.
Speaker 2
You're damn right. You cannot come for him.
You are correct.
Speaker 2 I will kill for him. Did you guys see the new Willow?
Speaker 2
I did. I liked it.
And they canceled it. They deleted it.
Speaker 2 I know.
Speaker 2
Really? They deleted it? It was like a wonderful, queer willow that was just really sweet. And I was upset that they canceled it.
I was planning on watching it. I didn't know they got rid of it.
Speaker 2 It's great.
Speaker 2
I've liked it. And I'm not saying I'm sure I'll get a lot of shit for people that like love, love Willow.
I'm not saying I would never say it's better than original Willow. I just had fun with it.
Speaker 2 It was just like a nice, cute.
Speaker 2
Sounds like you're saying it's better than the original Willow, and I hope that the lesbians will kill Jackie. Please don't.
Lesbians, you know I love you. Attack.
No. Lesbians attack.
Lesbians Unite.
Speaker 2 I'm on your side.
Speaker 2
Oh, and I know what you did last summer. It's not worth watching.
Man, re-watching the original one. So I wanted to say that.
The original one is success. It's fun.
That's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2
I'm not talking about the new one. It's a really bad movie.
And now this all makes sense, Ed. I didn't realize.
It isn't purposely.
Speaker 2
It's stupid. And it's one of those horror movies that, like.
But it didn't know it was stupid. It thought it was good.
I know, because it's a bad thing. That's what I don't like.
Yeah, but I like it.
Speaker 2 Those are just sexy, hot people, and they're being so like it's so bad but you got it to me
Speaker 2 the movie only works if they don't think it's stupid yeah they have to think that it's serious in order to sell it there's a certain amount of schlock allowance that you have to kind of i think if you
Speaker 2 usher in the worst period of horror in my opinion what's funny though is that a lot of those movies now are some of my favorite to rewatch just scream everything else is shit.
Speaker 2 But, dude, they're really fun to rewatch.
Speaker 2
Oh, but your faculty's screaming. I tell you, those bongles.
What are you waiting for? What are you waiting for? You know what it is?
Speaker 2
Is that these are the movies now that Natalie and I watch almost for comfort. Like, these are my comfort movies now.
Mimic,
Speaker 2 a couple other like 90 horror movies.
Speaker 2 It's Ghostboat. We're only just talking about Ghostboat.
Speaker 2 Yeah, Ghost Boat is honestly not that bad. Bone Collector, the one with
Speaker 2
Let's Ghost Ship. Ghost Ship.
Sorry.
Speaker 2
I like Ghost Boat. Is that the sequel? Boat Collector.
The Boat Collector is a villain. Fallen.
Oh my God. Fallen's a good movie.
Speaker 2 He's so mad.
Speaker 2
Oh, my God. I want to rewatch Fallen.
I saw it last couple of years.
Speaker 2 That movie holds up. I also love, unironically, all of the Stephen King TV movies that, except for the Shining Stephen King, Stephen Weber movie.
Speaker 2 It needs to be deleted from
Speaker 2
the moment. I thought it was deleted.
I feel like you just brought it back into the zeitgeist. I had to buy it on DVD.
Really? Oh,
Speaker 2
and then you sent it back. You're like, I'm going to watch it.
I'm going to send it right back.
Speaker 2 Can you make this into a CD, please?
Speaker 2 Can you make this into a sandwich, please?
Speaker 2 So, if there are any final thoughts before we begin, what do you wish to see? in the coming years?
Speaker 2
Well, I do want to let everyone know that Jaws is coming back to the IMAX theater on August 29th for one week. Get your tickets.
I'm going September 2nd.
Speaker 2
So make sure if you do want to see it. I've never seen it in the theater multiple times.
I've never seen it in the IMAX. So if you want to check it out, now's the fucking time.
Speaker 2 Is it the same print or is it like they refurbished it? I don't know. I bet it's going to be beautiful because it didn't come out on July 4th and it's coming out on Labor Day.
Speaker 2
So I imagine they took some extra time with it to make it pretty. You got to put extra colors in it.
Hell yeah.
Speaker 2 You put three extra sharks in it.
Speaker 2
I would love that. Bump it up.
Where's the extra sharks? I'm always down for more vampires. I am such a sucker for vampires.
Watching Lost Boys last night. Yeah,
Speaker 2
I suck and I fuck and I suck and I fuck. Yeah.
Lost Boys. Lost Boys is incredible.
He's just such a good because I'm a sucker. I used to hang out with James.
He's the writer. Really?
Speaker 2
Yeah, he used to live down the street from me. Hell yeah.
He owned the only house on Houston. Every other place was an
Speaker 2
apartment building. Where the dogs love to shit and piss.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. That was his house.
Yeah, he was very cool.
Speaker 2
Yeah, he worked as a grip on Blade Runner, pulled Lost Boys out of his ass, and then bought a house off it and lived off it his whole life. It's Lost Boys holds up.
Well, have you seen Near Dark?
Speaker 2
Near Doys. Yes, I love Near Dark.
I think Near Dark is probably besides, besides. Near Dark's a little better.
Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula. It's like one of my favorite vampire movies.
Speaker 2 Also, not a summer one, but I saw last year for the first time Fright Night. I had never seen Fright Night.
Speaker 2 Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 2
I've seen it since I was a child. Not good.
Remake, not good. No, the remake's not good, but watch the original again.
It really is. It's a great movie.
You know what also is great for the summertime?
Speaker 2 I think anthologies are great for the summertime. Is
Speaker 2 oh my god,
Speaker 2
my fucking favorite movie, The Stephen King Creep Show. The creep show movies.
Oh, all of the creep show movies are fucking amazing. You like the ones that are shorts.
I love anthologies.
Speaker 2 I love body bungies.
Speaker 2
I love body bags. Body bags is great.
I love body bags. I'm a sucker for anthologies.
Oh, my God. All the VHSs.
I've watched all the fucking whole movies.
Speaker 2 And that's, right, it is creep show with the Leslie Nielsen with Ted Danson, right? Oh,
Speaker 2
it's so good. Again, and then with The Naked Gun, the new new movie is actually really good.
Liam Neeson shows off his jobs in that movie, but no one will replace Liam Neeson. I love Lee Nielsen.
Speaker 2 No one will replace Leslie Nielsen because he's just got that
Speaker 2
gravitas. But the new Naked Gun was a lovely gun.
Phenomenal. The person waits to see it again.
Dude, the person
Speaker 2 that blew my mind was Pamela Anderson. Yeah, she was great.
Speaker 2
I'm about to read her memoir because I'm now just falling in love. She's got that doc, too, that came out two years ago.
And she's got a new show now, too.
Speaker 2 She's got like a home show that she likes because she has a farm.
Speaker 2 The show? It's the opposite of Houston.
Speaker 2 Bay all day watching.
Speaker 2
Night watch. Night watch.
Oh, it's a day watch. We've been doing Should have a Day Watch.
Should have Lake Watch. Yeah, okay.
There we go.
