This episode is brought to you by Wes Anderson's Asteroid City.
Asteroid City takes place in a fictional American desert town circa 1955.
It's the story of what happens when the itinerary of a junior Stargazer convention,
organized to bring together students and parents from across the country,
is spectacularly disrupted by world-changing events. The film features an ensemble cast,
including Jason Schwarzman, Scarlett Johansson, Tom Hanks, and many more.

Hey, and welcome to the show that I am still surprised four weeks in
that nobody has ever done before and is an idea that has never been explored in media.
And I just feel like we're trading. It feels like a no-brainer.
Yeah, it does. It really feels like just like a moneymaker, Prince Money.
Welcome back to Chill Tracks, everybody. Is that what this does? Is that?
That's what it does. This is a printing money machine.
It is. It's this right here. They come for this. Is that right? Is that right?
Yeah, this is what they're lining up for.
Today's movie is brought to you by Jesse himself. Can't wait for this.
It is going to be on. We're watching on Amazon Prime or Amazon,
so you can get it there for sure, but I don't know if it's anywhere else.
The name of the movie is Hey the Ghost with Nicholas Cage as the star from 2015, apparently.
So this is seven years old now. It's not that old.
It's not that old. It is. Jesse, all he said is my mind is going to be blown. So
is that you still do you hold? Do you still hold by that?
I have no idea what you said. You literally turned into a ghost yourself.
Oh, no. Did I turn into a robot? Alex and I were like, what?
I paid the ghost in my back. I mean, you're back. You paid the ghost now.
This is great because, you know, it's Comcast and I'm literally hardwired into the internet
and it's gigabit. So I don't even know how that's happened. You got to pay the ghost, man.
You got to pay the ghost with Nicholas Cage. Jesse said it's going to blow my mind.
And I said, are you do you still hold to that, Jesse?
I mean, I'm not going to tell you in what way,
but I will say it is of the same quality as every other movie we have watched so far.
You, you love Mothman prophecies in with the others that we've got.
100%. Yes. Okay. All right. Fair enough.
It was better. It was by far the best one. Right. So I agree.
Till today. Till today. All right. Till today. All right. So as always,
we're going to count down from three and say play and I'm playing you all.
Go ahead and follow along with us. Here we go. Three, two, one, playing.
Already an entertainment company who's our do not recognize.
It's just boring. RGE.
RLJ. This is the Sega made Jurassic Park, the lost world game.
Dave and Busters.
No, it's voltage pictures. Obviously.
It looks like a table that I would see at a film festival.
Oh, and we're in. Voltage pictures. Okay. Only two producers.
Oh, what is that? A scorpion? A reptilian claw.
Oh, is it Scorpion? A Midnight Kitchen production.
Okay. Midnight Kitchen is also involved in this.
In association with Rodco's Productions, Interpol Plus.
And Interpol. Interpol Plus was involved.
Interpol Plus. Oh my God. 1679.
I didn't know I did that cameras back then.
Nicholas Cage is famous for his ability to disappear into any era.
So what is all that?
Whoa, I'm going to raise the volume a bit here.
We're off to the races.
Yeah. Oh, did I mention this is a horror movie?
Is this Bloodborne?
It's The Village Sequel.
Is this Lepact Lelou?
Oh, I think a woman died.
There's also a scene like this in the Tim Burton Sleepy Hollow film.
You screwed up, kid.
Where did that third kid come from? I thought there were only two down here.
No, they just all look alike.
If you put kids together for a long time, they just osmos.
Like Sea Monkeys?
Yeah. Wow.
Hey, the ghost.
Hey, the ghost, guys.
Hey, the ghost.
Hey, the ghost.
It's crazy what with this title.
It's crazy what with this title card for a movie set in 1679.
Is it?
Is it?
Yeah, I was like, wow, 1679 had dinosaur sheets, dude.
Is it the Mothman?
I can't tell you what this movie is about.
In 300 years, a bridge.
Yo, is some Among Us on that shirt?
Before Among Us.
Yeah, is that true?
Who was there?
Doesn't it look like those little Among Us dudes?
Among Guy.
Among Guy.
Among Many.
Uh-oh.
Be careful, kid.
This is a setup for a jump scare, kid.
You don't know what you're doing.
Yeah, they gather, kid.
There's got to be a thing like, why is this weirdly, like,
it looks like a picture they put an Instagram filter over.
The way that was, like, colored and shaded.
It's, uh, you know, voltage pictures.
Yeah.
It's the voltage difference.
Oh.
Pay the ghost.
What's the, how much, how much do you think that kid owes the ghost?
$69.
Ooh, nice.
Ooh, why do I recognize her?
Money, the ghost says you owe him money, bitch.
I recognize this actress from something.
No matter what it was, how far she's gone.
I want daddy to do it is ruthless.
Is she the chick from Walking Dead who played the wife?
She is.
Oh my God, girl.
Is she really?
I would have fought to keep that role.
No, she died.
Spoilers.
I know.
Spoilers.
Hey, there he is, Professor Cage.
Dude, you can, like, Nicholas Cage in, like, a red vest.
Low battery.
It's 12 10 a.m.
Go home, Nick.
He was so caught up in the work.
Stock footage of New York.
Halloween, little, little environmental storytelling for you.
420 leaf.
Hell yeah.
420 leaf.
That's like the Amazon product description of it,
as like a party store.
Herb grinder.
420 leaf design at the dollar store.
Yeah.
Dad.
I owe the ghost a lot of money, man.
Last night, me and my friends were gambling with the ghost.
I needed to buy some more robux.
I'm playing blackjack.
I think I'm going to be a ghost.
It's just going to be a ghost who goes around on Halloween night
hitting up kids for money.
Oh, is that what he is?
He turns into a murderer.
That would be an amazing plot for a movie.
This kid has zero emotion.
Dude, imagine being that kid 25 years from now,
and he can always say that he got kissed by Nick Cage in a B movie.
Honestly, that's the hell of a reputation.
Nicholas Cage kissed me one time.
There's something outside the window.
Nicholas Cage stabbing the heart of the dead for the rest of the movie.
Yo, there's Iron Man in the background.
Copyright?
Disney?
Oh, yo, that old, old Iron Man.
I love you 3000.
I love you 3000, kid.
I still wish we lived in the world where Nick Cage was Superman,
just for one movie.
What are you doing in my bedroom?
Aren't you from The Walking Dead?
I saw you die on TV.
Baby, you're out of focus.
I can't hear you.
Cameraman just has no idea how to use the camera.
Are you getting it?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is a great shot.
Uh-oh.
Don't grunt softly.
Oh, she's ready to pay the ghost.
She's paying the hell out of that ghost.
I'm from now on.
We'll call sex Paying the Ghost.
Gotta pay the ghost.
I zoned out there.
Sorry, what happened?
This window like opening behind that guy?
Yeah, it's automatic.
Oh, okay.
Whenever he claps that book shut.
Why is his class the most attractive class in the history of class?
Not hotter than Indiana Jones's class.
Why does it look like only the girls are wearing Halloween stuff?
I keep trying to find a guy wearing Halloween stuff and I can't see any.
Well, they didn't pay the ghost.
Dude, first they first they reference Indiana Jones and now they're on the shining.
You don't have like you can't go outside.
They painted on the eye patch, which is hilarious.
Yeah, that's a weird choice.
Listen, we can't spring the extra two dollars to get the eye patch.
Just use a fucking marker.
That's what she's mad about, not the scootering around.
Yeah.
Oh, no way.
Generic scary movie child drawing.
That's when you when your kid draws that, you know, that's it.
It's over.
You're about to have a bad couple of weeks.
Look, zoom in more on the scribbles.
Look at the details.
Damn, he got the letter.
We regret to inform you that your Russian escort has been denied.
What is that accent?
I'm trying to place it.
But is it really the same ship?
You know what I mean?
Oh, yeah, over time.
All right,
natural interaction between two old friends.
Which one of them is the ghost?
I was sure that that homeless person was going to be in the movie.
Hey, dude, it's just taxis that'll stop for you.
Just waving down like a Porsche.
Hey, I need a ride.
It looked like he waved down a truck just now.
Listen, don't wave an actual taxi.
We can't get him in frame.
Dude, did your mom ever dress up with you?
Not once, never.
Not once.
When I was too young to remember, we have pictures.
That's all the reason why.
My dad, yeah.
When my dad got to stay home, he would dress up.
A vulture in New York.
Don't get too close on that effect.
It's looking like that season one witcher.
Mothman, the giant mothman.
No.
The soundtrack of an episode of 24.
It's like weird percussion, like 35 plastic tubes.
This is probably nitpicking, but it was still daylight out.
Why couldn't she wait to go trick-or-treating until he got home?
It's New York, brah.
You don't go trick-or-treating at night.
New York stop trick-or-treating at sundown?
You've been there.
You know what it gets like.
Uh-oh.
Yeah, man.
Blow jobs anytime.
Candy, 8 p.m.
That's the cutoff.
God, he looks so awkward with that eye patch painted on in his eye
open the whole time.
This is just what Nick Cage wear.
He was like, I'll do the movie if I can wear my own clothes for the Halloween part.
Come on.
That's how you know everything's going to be.
That's how you know everything's going to be.
I don't think it's going to be better now.
Yeah.
Now this is a New York street fair and it's definitely night time.
That wide screen camera footage.
That kid's got the 70 mil handy cam.
Look at that aspect ratio for a handy cam.
Just a giant head.
That's from Elden Ring.
Pay me.
You owe me $5.99, kid.
I spotted you.
Is that Jack Skellington?
They had a lot of Disney in here.
Uh-oh.
Baby, kid.
Oh, shit.
Oh, yo, the body snatcher.
Dude, it's all movie references up in this bitch.
Charlie, what's wrong?
So far, all this movie needs is Simbad and it's basically Jingle all the way.
And Charlie's lost.
Come on, Charlie.
Oh, no.
John Wayne Gacy in the fucking ice cream truck.
Oh, God, get out.
Hey, kid.
Want to see a rope trick?
Go to the top of the Twin Towers.
Your brother is there waiting for you with a large bucket of KFC.
With a large bucket of KFC.
Pay the ghost.
That acting choice.
Right.
Uh, yeah.
What?
Out, Charlie.
Man, I hate when his hand just-
Did you pay the ghost?
Nick Cage, did you pay the ghost?
Yeah, I didn't kill him today.
No.
Oh, dude, you cannot play this music and make it get scary.
Yeah, I feel like I just am about to get about to get a jiggy.
Whose ice cream cone was that?
Right.
That was supposed to be his.
Oh, such a beautiful treats shattered foreshadowing.
Press X to Charlie.
Charlie.
I'm right here, dad.
Should have just paid the ghost, man.
Arrest him.
Yeah, I'll be like what year old what what what kind of are you a cop?
All right, Nick, you can't run too fast.
We don't have a lot of room here.
I hope he never changes clothes this whole movie.
A cop told me to go home.
I I was following what the law said.
This is 2015.
Why couldn't he just call her on his cell phone?
He's seven years old.
He doesn't have a cell phone.
Oh, shit.
No, no, I mean call his wife on the why don't you have to go home and go right back?
Because the cops were like maybe he went home to go back.
So call the wife.
It's too late.
It's so weird that there's a buzzard.
Of all the birds.
That's like a really weird bird to be the bird for this movie, right?
I would immediately be like that's brutal.
Yeah, he's like acting so suspicious.
Be home to your wife.
Get out of my face.
The more concerned with the fact that that guy selling ice cream killed 24 kids in the New York
area, it's wild.
Yeah, it's a subplot.
This has such the vibe of like a European like low budget horror video game right now.
What?
Did time pass?
He has his light outside now.
Man, he took a long walk home.
He ran there in a second for his wife, but it's been it's been a whole night.
What happened to Charlie?
I don't know.
What?
Yeah, what the fuck was that reaction?
Was that a yes?
I have to pay the ghost.
This lady has bad luck with kids.
I don't know.
This movie is so weird.
They need to draw it out.
All right, now you need to hug a lot.
It's an emotional moment.
Charlie's gone.
Just as you two are soulless.
Oh my god.
How could you lose him?
Kristen Sobs.
Quietly.
He lost Charlie.
You heartless monsters.
I just didn't believe it was his son.
I'm sorry.
She didn't feel like his his his his kin.
He doesn't seem to have to see a buzzard again.
It's just wild because this movie is only like an hour and a half.
That's true.
Yeah, it's they got to save all the budget for the end.
We're like almost a third of the way into the movie and like
nothing has happened.
We saw a man who kind of looks like a turd covered in a robe.
What if this becomes like the Santa Claus
and he has to like be death and take his kid to the underworld?
Honestly, I'm here for that twist.
He like goes outside and like the old death like falls off the roof.
Mathis, have you seen the Santa Claus?
I have seen the Santa Claus.
All three.
Good.
Oh, well, of course you have.
If you've seen one, you've seen them all.
That's what that's what I would say.
This is what I'm talking about, though.
It has been like another two minutes.
I know.
It's trying to get you scared a little like I'm a little scared.
I I mostly just genuinely like want to know what's happened.
Dude, every time they go into this room,
I look around because it's just it reads like the director being like,
what a 10 year olds like throw everything in there.
Solar system from the sky.
Got it.
Football paper, wallpaper.
Fantastic.
Like just everything.
Oh, no.
Why didn't you pay the ghost, dad?
Pay the ghost.
Oh,
boom.
Turn it.
rosé back.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Ah.
This has like the energy of like one of those scary stories
to tell in the dark stories.
Mm.
Yeah.
Look again.
Or the one where the guy goes, gotcha where I want ya.
And now I'm gonna eat ya.
Oh!
Oh!
Ah!
Lucky!
It was a dream.
It was all a dream.
What is this movie about?
Are we?
Oh, okay.
So he's, he's Pepe Silviad himself.
And his wife doesn't live with him anymore, I bet.
You can definitely see why they cast that kid
because the kid is like a better ghost than child.
Yeah.
He's like a real gaunt little boy.
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was emotionless from the very beginning.
Three days before Halloween, one year later, it's like,
not quite.
It's actually a little bit less,
it's a little bit less than a year later.
And he has just gone nuts, huh?
I imagine Nick Cage nuts is kind of a special kind.
Strawberry tactics.
Oh, yeah.
Halloween night.
Oh, Charlie Lofford.
Oh, look it.
He's got a Charlie Lofford one that's all already old and
great.
How much time has passed?
One year.
Oh, right.
Dan!
Two IMAX next to each other on the same desk is so weird.
She's a designer.
But OK, but if I was a designer, I would have my IMAX and then
maybe a monitor next to it instead of two separate computers.
She's doing two things at once.
She's a worker.
It's just so weird.
So weird.
It's like Ikea.
Damn, she's screening her calls when she kept the last name.
Yeah, it's still Mary.
That's what I was saying.
They can do look how far he's fallen.
Dude, he's doing sleepy hollow.
At least he still loves his job.
Gotta have a passion for something.
They stuck them in the middle of nowhere because he's got 10
year now and they can't fire him.
Sorry, my son wrote a scooter.
She can be the replacement love interest.
For a horror movie, this is very soap opera-y.
He puts his hand out.
He uses the force to protect his child.
But what if it does?
I feel him all over my body.
I would be like, all right, we got to stop talking.
Yeah.
Wait, no, but I can feel my son everywhere.
No.
I need to feel.
I need to figure out how to pay the ghost.
That's all I can think about.
Have you thought about ghost dollars, Mr. Cage?
I'm just picturing it and I know that like if he's holding
out his hand and I put money and it's just going to fall
right through, man, so how do I do it?
Do they have bank accounts?
What if what if you have to die too?
Does it accept direct deposit?
Yeah, two ghosts have Western accounts.
Damn, first name basis with the cops.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, still not paying the ghost.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
Hey, Mike.
What is this building?
I am trying to figure out where this quote-unquote
police office is.
New York City.
It's got like completely in columns.
It used to be a museum.
What is that 1995 Packard bell on the left hand side?
This is shot on the set of Resident Evil 2.
That's actually the most realistic part of the whole movie
is that old-ass computer in the police station.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yo, Trump moment.
Manila folders.
See, look at all the work we've done.
We are definitely sexy.
We may be corrupt.
We may be racist.
We may be brutal.
But don't call us lazy.
We may be lazy.
So you got that artist rendering?
Well, you can see how he put it up before in the past.
Oh, shit.
I love that it's definitely that kid's headshot.
Oh, what is this?
Yo, that's the kid's dart from a scene that Nicholas Cage was not in.
We are little kids.
He's like, I have no idea what this dart is because I never saw it.
I was not in that scene.
There he goes.
There he goes.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Yeah.
He did YouTube the song library as well.
Incredible shot right here.
And a one day with a crane.
I hope Nicholas Cage got paid a lot for this.
He's in like every moment of this like weird movie.
Man was working off debt.
And I can respect that
Needed to buy another dinosaur skull. I can respect that I
Got nothing bad to say about the man. Yeah me either
The best part is none of this is weird for a New York bus none of this
We all know his son is not gonna be on the bus
But the build up the tension
See this is what they have wrong New York is wouldn't be staring him down they would literally just be ignoring him
The boy is the buzzard guys 10 more minutes have passed
Dude wouldn't this be awesome if it was like a sudden animorphs twist and the buzzard shifted into his son
That is over 10% of the movie
Hey the ghost
Damn, it's like street art
That's like a logo
That's where these filmmakers got the idea for this movie
Vultures are gobbled. Oh, yeah, look at the hall. Look at three vultures now
Three CG vultures
What is going on
He's checking to see who's paying the ghost he's investigating
I
Feel like this would have been a great like one hour long TV
special with like just every scene like this cut out of the movie and
Marketed somehow different because I'm waiting for the whore like literally this movie is like Nicholas Cage walking around
And screaming with a lot of emotion. Oh
Gotta have one of those fake scares, you know, he's like fuck it just keep going
He's got a funny son. That dog was like so scary
I'm trying to pay the ghost
Can I speak to the homeless counsel, please who's the leader of this village? Who's the elder of this village?
I don't understand why you're all ignoring me. Let me speak to the shaman the medicine man. Who is he?
She opens like peels back a piece of plastic and there's some man surrounded by dirty needles
Is that the ghost oh
My god, have you ever used a walking stick before? No, but it's easy. I'll figure it out
Mothman the vampires from Elden Ring what?
It is like a fucking like little village
Is that Kenny G
Whoa the fire right back
That apart I
Don't know this is a fucking
Man
Perfect torch out of there. He pulled a
Like medieval torch out of that trash can the best part is is he did it?
Without even like he just grabbed it. It was the best part is that he's blind
But he's doing it purely as a courtesy to Nicholas Cage
He doesn't need it
He's showing him something that he himself cannot see
Maybe he paid the ghost with his eyes
Oh
Okay, what what does that mean? Oh
Like insidious
Can't wait to know what this lady's up to
Okay, well, okay, I thought they were gonna cut to the mom storyline
The front of her jacket is out of control
Can we just talk about the fact that like your turn around look at this out that is like woven
That is like of it. That's a band Taylor loft. Yeah, that is a wild Higa cottage core
Yes
You're fucking insane
No, Mike
You
You
Well, that's not exact that's not what I that's not exactly what I meant
Like physically do you see him though? I just feel like you're being unreasonable Kristen
He wasn't mine
He was our son that we had together. No, it's just hers
What if this happened to you
Have they spoken about it at all it feels like the answers no she just decided he did it like one second after he got home
No, he's got his son's freaking youtubers first-face cam
Oh
Yeah
There's that Elden Ring guy again, yep, oh
What is that weird oh
I see
It just looked weird because it's like CG'd onto the camera. Yeah
It's an audio diary
Dude, this is literally from the Blair Witch video game by Bloober team and not not that bad of a game
I enjoyed it. That's all right. I'm not saying it was good or great. It just wasn't bad
Creepy kids yo, that's the kid from trick-or-treat
Wait, what happened what did he just expect what did he just experience with his eyeballs?
He he experienced like a toy where you jump scare jump scare with his eyes like zoomed the footage that he watched like
Got him
I'd like cinematic ghost the ghost movie trailer and scare ghost
Deal with it. All right all the skill points went into jump scare
Yeah, he could have been any ghost he wanted to be but he's a jump scare ghost
He's so good at jump scares that almost no one ever sees him or gets scared of him
All right, we need three hallway shots Jim this movie is half over
One half of the plot all the answers that you are looking for half of the movie is done
Yeah, we're averaging of one jump scare like every 15 minutes
I'm hoping for like a Nicholas Cage freak out last act, but I don't know
You hear that
Dude, I hope some ghost shit happens to her because she's gonna get she needs to eat some fucking
Forgiveness pie forgiveness by I
Really hope that it's not Nicholas Cage in her house further ruining his marriage I
Hope that
She sees the boy say pay the ghost and then she calls Nicholas Cage and he's like well well well
Look who believes me
Could have been us together this whole year
Figuring this out together, but no he was your child unbidden after I got tenure
I
Really accurate reverse shot. Oh, did you see

That's so good you better call your husband whoa
Whoa that thing
That is beautiful beautiful piece of animation
What's up mom, let me get a Capri son
Well, well well who came crawling back
Is it about how you think I killed your son
Do you think maybe I could move back in with you and that we could be back together and
That you could not blame me for my son's death, please and that and tell me that I don't own my own son
Dear God, please. I can't afford heat in this place
She's gonna say something like you really never stopped looking did you and he's gonna look at her and he's gonna say
Every damn day, baby
Like this scene
Ready
She's got that stun to look I think you might be right
Suddenly
There he is that's our son on the list
I saw a bunch of kids in a shack on a video
But before we go do you think we could ever talk about
Who's to blame for this our son's death and that maybe it wasn't me is that possible?
We should get going. Do you think after a year of this that I could just step out from the shadow of that for five seconds?
It's gonna say pay the ghost in this apartment
Man answer the worst
They need to they need to sprinkle some cinnamon at every in every
Seam of their room
Oh lost his dog. Oh the village shaman. I used to be a fucking accountant

Mind-blowned at how horrible she's made her husband's life
How much does he want what do we owe this motherfucker?
On Halloween

Did not clock it
Finally
After a year, thank God, do you think maybe we could talk about the past year?

Break up that English a little bit. She was like I feel
Freed like it's very obvious. She just spoke normal English and they were like yeah, like don't do that
Okay, okay, I was close. I think to feel that I hear maybe every other sentence was like completely
I can't believe they did that
No, we need you to speak like a New York Asian come on

I don't think it's rated at all
You don't think this one went to theaters no way I
Gotta look this up
Please tell me it was literally a red box movie I
Used to see those all the time be like man. What are these movies and why do they have stars in them?
It had a limited release Wow. Oh

Roger ebert calm called it a new low for Nicholas
This was this might have been the last film where he was like maybe I should start taking serious roles again
I only got uphill since like yeah, like whoa. What's the next movie he made over this Mandy? Oh
It's the exorcist
Yeah, like every single shot of this movie is like a direct reference to a famous horror movie
There's so many the kid there was the one kid from trick-or-treat. Oh
Psychic time also they like went out of their way to like
Aggressively Kata and you see that yeah
Just like I don't know if you're the psychic showing up for like I'm gonna look for your kid
I don't know if you should dress like a
Little flirtatious, you know what I mean?
Like I'm going out for drinks afterwards. Yeah
So why are we paying you
Now if you blur your eyes and cross the left one a little bit you can see the magic image on my dress
Get on go for lady
She ain't paying the ghost she's gonna get bopped by a ghost right now some Silent Hill tunes
She's walking through the fog right now, that's what it feels like we're walking into Silent Hill right now
Dinosaurs
It was the ghost of a t-rex I can see it now
Did you know that
Everyone looks out that window and gets got just stop looking out the window
It's a jump scare window. Yeah, that window is only jump scares
It's a thunderstorm

But dress sizzles
Look at those smoke plug-in effects you
What the fuck
What do you want me to do it a fire elemental attacks you in a restaurant she burned it saw some wild shit
She burned from the inside
Because I never thought that not for a second and I've never said it
Even
She said I'm really scared the subtext said I'm really sorry. I
Don't think the subset the subtext said anything about her being sorry
Yeah, you're right. You're right wrong word sub titles
Okay, I was just gonna listen to my podcast I always fall asleep with my iPad, baby
She'll human audio at least a new episode want to listen
That's hilarious. I can't sleep. Can you know I was gonna
Alex fucking turn the whole thing into a fucking game show it's so weird
Do you think we're just making it inappropriate that we're sleeping together even though we're married but like what does it matter at this point?
We're fighting ghosts together. I can stay in your bed
It's funny that we were the thing that we're fighting about is over now
Why like why is it still still inappropriate? Is there tension between us? Is it because we haven't talked about this at all
Maybe we should talk about it. All right. Good night
That tick tock scroll void, I know that look
I don't like that look cage. What could this be?
There's no I have no idea what the ghost is I don't know where his son is I
Don't know what his wife. Yeah, I don't know what the
It's weird the tension is built around the utter lack of knowledge. Oh, no in addition to the painting
This is it has been like two minutes of just nothing nothing has happened
This is for people who are like on edibles on their couch and they like aren't thinking about how long they've been sitting there
Like I think like 25 to 35 minutes of this movie have gone by where it's just like
No music
dark
Like a camera. I'm a moody Nick Cage
I think I like four or five of the shots have been the same hallway over. It's establishing
What hallway are they in? I feel I feel a stab building tension
There's probably so much going through our minds right now because we know so much about what's going on hallway is this
Her pay the girl
Baby, I need you to pay the ghost
Hey, look go. Oh
Oh, please apologize. Oh
Possessed wife noises. No, I think she's fine. I think she's just having a rough one a
Real rough one
The fuck
I'm in the upside down what the fuck is going on dude. I
Want to know what the plot of this movie is what I just want to know what the central he's looking for Charlie
What
There is not enough blood anywhere for what she was just doing to herself
That was that's cool. Oh
Yeah, you got to get those bubbles going that's how you know you're killing the bacteria. Oh
That's how you do it
Oh
You did this to me
I don't know we can't tell you the plot of the movie yet. I have no idea
Literally him looking around what if it was a picture of the Twin Towers?
The
Witcher what was that was I supposed to recognize that symbol from the beginning of the movie on the stone slab in
16 whatever. Okay, dude. I thought that was Tyka would he be for a second. I forgot that part happened again. I
Don't care about this guy. Who is he the guy cutting open the lady? Ew
Ew
What that's not normal. Oh, well close that shit up lady. Yeah, that's a fine. It's black mist
I
Close that shit. I
Can't believe this push this person is still in this movie. She has to be like a famous German person
Conchue
Right like this movie is like a German funded movie and she's like like that one actress who's like part of the deal
Yeah, yeah, she came with the budget. Listen. We'll give you the money, bud
Oh
Shit influenza. Oh, no. Oh, no
I'm still not quite sure how this has anything to do with the ghost
There was a clue there
I
I
I
I'm gonna come with you so that somebody can die who's not important to the story
Here's that got that lady that definitely wasn't flying around right right officer
What
Dude this guy went nuts
You're not so tight. You're not supposed to barbecue on the bodies, right? Come on. Where did you get those clamps, dude?
Now
He's gonna show up back at her at he's gonna be sitting on the stairs at Mike's house again
The purge
You these are the people that made the greenstone, oh you're right
You
This is giving me like wicker man vibes right now
The wicker man is about three times the movie this is I've never seen it. Oh my god. That's the next one. I
Just know the breeze
Cuz it's the meme the wicker man is a hilarious dark comedy. This lady's digging too deep
Princess Leia my yeah, yes, thank you. Actually, let's be real Mon Mothma cosplay. Mmm. You're right
In held the portal song no the portal song goes like a try-out. Thank you
What accent is this
From Bayside, yeah
You should probably go to a mental hospital I'm just a teacher
You
That woman is German or my name is Jerry Seinfeld
You
I'm a teacher
I
Know I'm only from Bayside and I don't know anything
But here's the plot of the movie
I don't want to talk about it
But I know the kid has exactly one year and then he's lost for only the two kids that you had met and not the Chinese
Ladies kid, unfortunately
I
Like how we keep cutting back toward this lady she has like she's about to solve it she's about to crack it
She's like just yeah, she's just having a good time with this magnifying glass. I
Feel like an actual PI
What
I
Why is that kid wearing a skull? It's Halloween, baby. Look at that background
This looks like my LARP I used to go to this looks like my LARP
Swing from this swing to damage to damn it. We'll talk any pretty cute
She got that like sixteen hundreds
Kind of braces look at her. She looks like Heather Graham
You don't screw it up. They're literally playing the whole opening scene beat for beat again
So you know by far the most expensive set, right?
That's where she loses me though
Cuz like I feel bad for her up until that point and then it seems just like super hella evil
So you want me to drop you off at the pay the ghost oh, oh
That guy managed to swerve for like a street and a half by the way
Watch that footage they were definitely about to hit a sidewalk and then he just kept going down the street plenty of time to break
Yeah, that just reminded me the only fast and furious movie. I've seen is Tokyo Drift
That is terrible. That is so good of all the ones. Yeah, that's the only one I've seen. Oh
No
It's not that I don't like Tokyo Drift. It's just that like it's the worst that of all it was it was just before they like
Decided they were gonna spend a lot of money on those movies
It's also like I'm not a car guy at all neither are they don't worry about it
You know we're running out of movie ideas if we watch Tokyo Drift on this
If we watch the one you've seen before any of the other ones
She's gonna get killed I just know it my pushed off the ledge
There's like 15 minutes of this movie left
Go go see breathing. It's over for her dude. It's done. It's done. Oh
The window damn
Question what did she do to deserve that honestly in the plot of this film? What did she do besides research?
Nothing. She's nothing to deserve that man. They they're running out of characters to like spook and killed with they can't kill off Nick K
They're gonna kill the cop
No, yeah, that's next. Yo the hottest EMT in the world
This is guy is a model who got a side-acting gig for a little extra cash in this
Hey, stop running away so slowly
I gotta pay the ghost
Oh back at the scene of the crime
That fucking monkey costume. Let's see if we see the same giant head again
There it is some guy dressed up as a oh, yeah, there was say it was actually in there
And there's the ghost Batman bad CGI in the dark go
Even hitting him from the right side to ghost
Come on
He runs like me and it's painful. I'm like a fat man. I feel terrible watching this like he runs like I do
It's rough man
You don't like watching Nicholas Cage run because it reminds you
Yes, it's unpleasant. I want him to be way more fit than me
He's old dude. Yeah, well then that says a lot about me I guess
He's not shaman he's not
Town crier, where have you gone? Where has though gone?
He's gonna just start handing money to these people now watch. He's like here. Let me pay the ghost. Oh
Man the worst level of any video game the sewers
Hey the ghost pay the ghost pay the ghost. Oh
Oh
This guy looks ridiculous
This this outfit is just so weird you guys ready for this I'm so ready
What in return for his kid you just want to watch
He's going to the other side this guy is this is like the like they never followed up with what happened to those two like
White dread dudes from the Matrix to
Yes, the Mera Vengeans
They actually kind of did follow up if you watch the new Matrix movie great can't wait to watch it. Yeah, I hope this guy's in it
Yeah, we're definitely not looking at a green screen
Man the doorway to the other side is just in the sewers of New York
Why do you have torches and flashlights everywhere dude, why does he need to be blind? Yeah, exactly putting it out there
That is a portal to nowhere if he walks out of this and he's in that five nights at Freddy's movie. I'll lose my mind
That'd be another fun one to watch I feel like
Was it wheelies one let's get we Nicholas cage on the podcast I would love that. Oh my god
Oh
I
Can't believe how long this is taking
Mia I'm here to pay the ghost
Mia
Oh
He's back in 1647
Foreign language
Oh clocked with a brand. Oh my god
Did he see that I can't tell his reaction isn't telling me if he was actually witnessing that or was that just for the viewer
He's probably just used to this shit by now
And now it is
Blair witch
Do you think he's ever even gonna find that lady?
Hannah she is the ghost. That's why she looked all charred. That's why she looked like a turd because that's got to be her
Oh
Got she's a witch got to have a cauldron
How about this Charlie
Get the kid from hocus pocus in here, he knows how to bring back dead witches isn't his name Charlie too
Maybe
You could have done couldn't have done those both at the same time. All right
Weird like seems not that heavy. Yeah, it's like weird foam rock that he has to pretend is not foam rock
If his son is in here, this is like the longest scene of all time
Like what do we need to watch like a comic book of him opening this in three panels
All right, I can only take a few of you with me
No, they're they're they're fucked. He's just like got to go
Yeah, I
Love all the wacky ass old costumes and none of them are like I dressed up as a famous character
The witch does not pay copyright fees
zero infringement
Generic princess you're getting kidnapped
What's she doing with all these kids?
Keeping them in this in this infinite cellar obviously
Collect some like porcelain dolls. Oh god
Yo, is that go yeah, what is that nope that's loco
Sorry, oh
Boogie this is so weird
That's a Frozone from frozen
Queen Frozone

Brozone the bro zone dude. That's where I put my dude wipes
Yo
He got his color back like the giver my ghost still dad
Oh
What is he been doing for a year he's yeah, he's gonna be like he's gonna be like hey, let's go home from that thing. Oh

He's the only two kids that have names. Can we take them?
All the other kids are like you bitch
Yeah
Man, it was just that easy, huh that easy this cop better be like I
Am so sorry
Army of children mobilize feel like all you have to do is explain himself to this lady. Oh
Look at this. That's some 90s TNG effects right there
It's like when you go on a Twilight Zone Tower of Terror and you wave goodbye to yourself. Yeah, oh
That's good. I think encounter. I'm gonna be nerdy
But I do think encounter at far point is a more compelling story than this. Yeah, I'm gonna just go ahead and agree with you
There's the ghost
I'm gonna be right in front of the camera with one of those lightning strikes
Damn
Come here my children why she liked this though. It's so rude
I'm hot. Yo agree. I'm not the person who did this to you. These are just my children that you're now taking away
Let's end this cycle of revenge
That kid looks so fucking the matrix reloaded that kid looks so upset
Hit her
Yeah, how what's that? What thrilling way is he getting all the kids are gonna do it?
Yes, it's like return to the king
Just like return to the king
Told you you would enjoy
Wonderful 101 powers activate turn into a big baseball bat
Everybody form off gun
Swirl swirl. Oh
Just made her let go
Get out of here Mike
Go now
This is the most fucked-up thing you've ever seen get out of here
You've got to go your children. Oh, that looked awful
Come on
You need to be time at your father might be dead. This is gotta go. You can hear the panic in your voice ready action
Dad no, let's go. It was like a lightly paranormal horror movie like
This whole time now, they're like running across a collapsing portal from the underworld towards the like
Matrix the dirty Matrix guy
What was a more haunted movie?
What was a more haunted movie this one or the 2004 ghost adventures documentary featuring Zach Baggins?
I would I would not like to watch that again
Well dad I guess this is it
Guess it's time to pay the ghost, huh?
I
Always loved you dad. Goodbye dad
Consider her paid. Is he gonna have to died it so that his son may live?
No, no, he's fine. He's fine
And my favorite part of the movie right now
He's like whoa and fade and everything's fine. Thank God. We made it just in time guys. Here's your Czech Nicholas cage
Thank you so much for the two days of filming
He just walked around like five factories
What was that run he's learning from his dad yeah fair
Hey remember for a year when you accused me of killing this kid
You and that cop talk about that
Remember when you and that cop decided that I murdered this kid
and
That you guys wouldn't triple check the fucking list
So that guy got addicted to drugs
He doesn't remember
Dude, it's been a year. I literally they literally said it so that we would understand. Thanks
This kid lost a whole year of his life, how are they ever gonna explain that to him
Well, he missed his birthday. He's a whole year older. They figured it out in Avengers
true
They don't have smart Hulk with them, you know
Hey, I told you so
I'm pretty much everything
You were pretty awful to me. Oh
God, you should not be putting that in the light. Oh my god
Is that it
Now you might be asking what happened to the cop great question great question where that story go
You'll never know you'll never know
Based on the novella so this is a novella of this story wait, so wait is this a big credit scene?
No, just a little hang on a vulture b-roll, but wait
These credits even I too have a subscription to the epidemic sound even these credits
That's how she landed and died, bro
Oh
For that page is a case the whole black smoke coming out of the mouth never went anywhere either burnt
Yeah, I mean she's burnt that one from the inside out for reasons we don't know
But also now that woman is the witch that other woman is the witch question mark. Why she wake up
I guess we'll have to find out and pay the ghost to coming out in
2017 right
It's got pay the ghost to time for a refund. It has everything this movie fun
At all it had a teacher the goat who knew all the answers for some reason it had a detective story that went nowhere
Had a German actress yeah language
Who just like was there to die she served no purpose of the story it had
Two actual actors doing nothing, but walking around the house the entire time this movie had it all
It's barely a movie. It's like it's like it's like a covert movie. Like it's like something they made I
Don't I don't even know what to say. I bet yeah, I bet you there's an article out there called refund the ghost
Yeah, I bet you for sure
Man, and they really like did not tell you anything about the plot until the very
Well, and even then very little was told. Yeah, it's very simple. It was a very simple thing
She wanted we could have learned that really early on and solved this whole thing
A woman was killed in olden days and she lost her three kids for being a witch and then she decided she'd take a kid every Halloween
And if those kids could swole around her and like stop her
Why did they never do that ever ever because they didn't that's what star power is?
They saw Nicholas Cage there was Charlie. He's like get him and all the kid ghosts were like we got they didn't know
It was an option. They didn't know it was an option until someone gave them. You know what it just takes
So an outside person to come in shake things up
Yeah, that kid you finally did he was like get him
Yeah, well, I learned a valuable lesson from that movie. So
Me too. Yeah, pay the ghost. Hey, the ghost and pay us at patreon.com
