Starting point is 00:01:15 this was to start off the spooky season here for the horror returns network with frightful reflections we're dead, neither living dead, 1990. I have not watched this one in a while. I don't, I have the
Starting point is 00:01:39 Blu-ray edition. I think it's umbrella. I don't know if this is the rated our version or the quote unquote unrated one. I don't know. I wouldn't even know what the difference is anyway. But 9 the Living Dead, 1990, directed by the great Tom Savini, screenplayed by George A. Romero and John Russo. It came out October 19th of 1990.
Starting point is 00:02:12 and for reasons unknown, the recently deceased are rising from the grave as flesh-ungry zombies. fleeing from the undead horde, a small group of survivors, including Barbara, Ben, and Harry, sequester themselves in a remote farmhouse. With the zombies outside the house multiplying, tensions flare as the group argues over the best way to escape their increasingly, dire situation before they are overrun completely. All right. I was Google. See what IMDBSC. When the unburied dead, when the unburied dead
Starting point is 00:02:56 returned to life and seek human victims, seven refugees shelter in a house in Pennsylvania court in a Pennsylvania countryside. All right. This stars the great Tony. Todd. Rest in peace.
Starting point is 00:03:16 The beautiful Patricia Tallman, Tom Tolls, also rest in peace. McKee Anderson, McKee, yeah, McKee Anderson, a William Butler,
Starting point is 00:03:30 a Katie Fenneran, the great Bill Mosley, Heather Manzer, I believe she played the young daughter, and a ton of other people in this. Savini, he didn't make a cameo in this, did he?
Starting point is 00:03:52 I can't remember. No, I'm thinking of... Dawn of the Dead. Yeah, Zach Snyder's Dawn of the Dead. But Brian, when was the first time you seen Thompson's Night of the Living Dead? This came out in 1990, so I was like 10. or 11 years old, this was always on cable. I've seen this about a hundred times.
Starting point is 00:04:19 And I love it just as much as the original one. Tom Savini did an awesome job directing and doing the effects. And you got an all-star cast, all-star horror, you know, who's who and horror in here. And, yeah, I originally brought it to the horror returns guys, for a review. I'm the only one that liked it. But...
Starting point is 00:04:45 What? Yeah. What kind of horror podcast? Sometimes I question those guys. Oh, man. I first seen this the weekend it came out. It was me, my buddy Gav and his girlfriend. We were initially said, let's go see this.
Starting point is 00:05:09 but when we got to the theater, my buddy's girlfriend was like, it's a horror movie, I don't want to see that. And my buddy was like, she wanted to go see something else. I said, you know what? You guys go see that? I'm going to go see this.
Starting point is 00:05:25 I'm like, all right, cool. So I walk in, nobody in there. Me, maybe five other people, all dudes. No, there was one lady sitting there. At 1990, I was, 19 no I think I was 19 I think at time
Starting point is 00:05:46 so I remember sitting there watching it and like okay this is a new version of this tale we grew up with and I remember when it was over I was kind of like okay
Starting point is 00:06:02 the ending completely different so I was like I was like, oh, well, Ben isn't the hero in this one. So, okay. So it took me, that first initial watch, I just saw it the one time and just kind of rubbed me the wrong way because they changed it. And I was like, all right. So once it came out, once it came out on VHS, my buddy bought it because he had never seen it. I said, why did you buy it?
Starting point is 00:06:36 He goes, I don't know. It was a used one. So, you know, back in the blockbuster days when they had like a billion of copies of one movie, he just ended up buying it. So we sat there and I watched it for the second time and I enjoyed it. I thought it was a good movie. I was like, yeah, I think because I knew what was going to happen. So I was like, all right, cool, man. I'm with this one.
Starting point is 00:07:04 So throughout the years. I was like watched it every time it came on like up all night or one of those channels or just late night and I remember once it hit cable, I think it was HBO
Starting point is 00:07:18 Showtime, one of them. I remember me and Mike watched it one time at his house. But throughout the years watching it over and over, I love this film. I think it's awesome. I thought Tom Zavini did an amazing job to have the cast
Starting point is 00:07:34 that he had. This was, before Candyman. So I knew Tony Todd because of other things he had popped up in. This was before he became one of the horror icons. So, but
Starting point is 00:07:48 I mean, I really enjoy this film. I thought Patricia Talman was really good as Barbara. Didn't not realize that was Bill Mosley, her brother, Johnny, until years later when
Starting point is 00:08:03 I became a Mosley fan. Yeah, he looks just like the original Johnny. Yeah. So, but yeah, man, overall, man, this movie's awesome. I love it. So, how we're going to run through it for you guys. So let me get it situated.
Starting point is 00:08:25 But I'm watching this on, like I said, the Blu-ray. So I'm not sure which version it is. so but all righty ready yeah hold on man what happened
Starting point is 00:08:43 okay one two three column of your pictures might give you a little sound though this one I've done the last few
Starting point is 00:09:00 I was just watching it on my computer and only I can hear the sound but I like this beginning black and white was it black and white beginning with the moon's coming up yeah
Starting point is 00:09:19 all right I don't know who did the score and filmed by Tom Savini that's what was the shocker for me this was his first directing right I believe so
Starting point is 00:09:41 did he also do special effects or was that his crew or did they get someone else let me let me pull it out all right it was Bill Bosley said a lot more than just the regular
Starting point is 00:10:04 Johnny for the original one Mm-hmm Bill Bosley too This was before he's the horror icon He's been in a ton of things William Butler He was in
Starting point is 00:10:24 Texas Chainsaw Masked 3 That and Friday of 13th Part 7 The New Blood Was it the New Blood? Was that what it was called?
Starting point is 00:10:39 With the The girl with Telekinetic Powers He was With Bernie? Yeah I think so He was one of the
Starting point is 00:10:53 He was the one that got maybe they were going to throw a birthday party for one of the guy's brothers. He was the brother because he was the one that got killed. Oh, yeah. That Tina kept seeing. Yeah, this is Tom Savini's directorial debut. Well, he did a good job for his first time out as a director. Because I remember watching some stuff and he thought he was just,
Starting point is 00:11:30 going to do the makeup if I remember right but Romero's like no man I want you to direct it he goes I already directed this movie well I want someone's with a fresh eye so I assume they were
Starting point is 00:11:46 okay with the changing of the ending I mean Romero was one of the producers so bashing around in the Mercedes yeah I don't know if it was just Tom Savini
Starting point is 00:12:02 and says the special effects team so it might have been his team yeah he looked just like Johnny speaking of uh let me dad shout out to uh bead bead jimmon uh I haven't listened to it yet but he interviewed the original Barbara oh that's what's out
Starting point is 00:12:31 yeah man how'd you do that bead got them I guess I guess when you're from somewhere else another part of the world see this was
Starting point is 00:12:48 different right here too with that old man staggering up no mother was he a zombie or was he just I think he was just injured it looked like you got a hit on the head
Starting point is 00:13:14 Yeah. I got the zombie. Is this the child murderer? Did you see that version? No. When they added all kinds of extra scenes to the original one?
Starting point is 00:13:35 No, I didn't see that. It's terrible. In the original film, the first zombie we see, they did like a backstory for him. Like he murdered some kids or something. And these guys were
Starting point is 00:13:53 supposed to bury him. But they were looking, I don't know why his coffin was open. Oh, damn. They were looking at him and they said, it looks like he's alive. And then he woke up. And that's how he
Starting point is 00:14:11 got up and was walking around. I think it's on YouTube, man. Check it out. It's stupid. But, uh, that was a good effect of Bill Mosley slamming his head onto the one of the gravestones
Starting point is 00:14:28 Yeah it looked like they Had Bill do that for real Yeah This part Well I assume this was the same Original cemetery They used the original one This guy must have been freshly
Starting point is 00:14:48 Yeah Zombie ass Yeah Glad that's all we see I don't know. Sorry, everyone. I got to keep pausing to blow my nose. Or not pausing, mute the blow of my nose.
Starting point is 00:15:09 See, I like this. It's still keeping with the original. Yeah. Zombies pick up and use things. They were still kind of smart. Yeah. They weren't all just walking dead stupid. I like that two of them attacked the car.
Starting point is 00:15:37 That's why she didn't have the keys. She hit the brakes. Yeah, it would have stopped. It might have slid because she's on the grass, but this must have been before the side airbags. I think it would still, if there was airbags in these Mercedes back then, let's say 89 when they filmed this. when you get a hit from the back
Starting point is 00:16:06 I think it would still pop out but maybe not these models whatever year it is based on the original screenplay John Russo and George A. Romero I like this version of Barbara because she wasn't
Starting point is 00:16:33 like how she wasn't the original Yeah, whiny and just Canatonic the whole movie It didn't really know She like just Was just there Once abandoned everyone else Came in
Starting point is 00:16:50 Yeah, Patricia did an awesome job She's hysterical and frightened In the beginning And turns into a complete badass By the end Yeah I met her at
Starting point is 00:17:01 Comic Con one year and Is she a stunt woman? Yeah I was just talking to her about this but she was cool I mean she answered all my questions
Starting point is 00:17:20 if I knew she was there I would have brought my DVD and my Blu-ray to have her sign it has never been that Texas Framer that I can remember Yes she has
Starting point is 00:17:37 That must have been year I didn't go. Yeah, they did I think for Texas Chances I asked at 3. That was a year I didn't go. Yeah, okay, I can
Starting point is 00:17:52 picture her. I think that was a year Sean Cunningham was there. Yeah. He's supposed to be in an economy I'm going to. I think
Starting point is 00:18:06 Days of the Dead. You can ask him about a... What's that with the rumors of Braun Stromen being cast as Jason Warhees? What? That's a giant Jason Warhees. We don't need... Leatherface all right, but now... Stop making... I guess he said he's willing to shave his beard off and everything.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Make another C-No Evil 3 and let him be... uh cane's brother or cousin or something I don't know I like that it pretty much
Starting point is 00:18:57 went along with the original story except for the changes I don't know how did this hand fall off
Starting point is 00:19:07 somebody push it like somebody was like somebody was inching it oh that's what's his name's uncle oh
Starting point is 00:19:22 lucky she moved that big fat guy with her smashed her. Is this the nephew? I think so. I want to know what, I still want to know
Starting point is 00:19:38 what exactly started all this. They hinted around as a satellite or something blew up in the atmosphere, the original one. This is always cool. I like this part right here. Tony, but take care of this real quick.
Starting point is 00:19:56 Yep. Move, bitch. He looks cool when he's on the grass crawled, he's all twisted and tweaked. Yeah. Come pull it up. Smoking a cigarette. You got any shotguns in there?
Starting point is 00:20:19 Talk to me, girl. What was the original Ben's name? Uh, someone yelling it. Dwayne Jones. Yeah. Dwayne Jones and the original Barbara was Judith O'Day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Leave the doors wide open. They all just come walking in. And the original, none got in the house until they all come breaking in. You got to move his legs, Tony. That other guy. Yeah, the other dude was still laying around. Watch out. I like when she's hitting him.
Starting point is 00:21:22 You can say it's a dummy. Yeah. with a crowbar ooh she killed that dummy it even sounded like it when she was hitting it oh the window's broken like it still crawl in
Starting point is 00:21:41 I know all I see is Candyman but did you watch that last final destination yeah it was it was a nice goodbye but it was sad to see it looked like that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:00 And then him saying that line that, yeah, live your life and all that. They said that was something. He just had lived. He just said it. And they kept it in. I met him once. He was cool. Me and Mike met him. He was even Venom. Was it
Starting point is 00:22:17 the video game or one of the animated? I think the video game, the Spider-Man one, the Miles Morales. Yeah. I always thought about this even after I saw the original one I was like what if this happened what am I going to do well then I was single
Starting point is 00:22:33 and no kids and it's easier to fend for yourself but now I don't know I do my best yeah me and my daughter we've been binging a rewatch for me but first time for her the walking dead we've been asking each other
Starting point is 00:22:51 a lot of questions I don't even I think I did tap out after I didn't see the last two seasons. I didn't even finish Fear of the Walking Dead. Yeah, we just, before
Starting point is 00:23:08 we got on here to record this, we just finished season seven. She wanted to quit after Glenn. She was done. Yeah, look at it right here. It's all twisted. Sparta kick. I like this version of him,
Starting point is 00:23:30 because he was starting to feel bad for killing him. He did such a good job. I think they killed more zombies than this than they did in the original. Except for those
Starting point is 00:23:49 Yahoo's at the end when they had them with big piles. Oh, geez. God damn you. Robar just stabbed him in the back of the head. Damn, he was such a good actor.
Starting point is 00:24:12 There is a good actor. I hate talking to people in the past tense. Yeah. He's done so much, too. And the first time I kind of met him at Comic Con. He was walking by. And we went, Candyman. He just went, hey, smile and waved
Starting point is 00:24:31 at me and my friends. He came walking out of this restaurant in the hotel. Either nobody knew who he was, or they just didn't care. but I had the feeling no one knew who he was because he just walked through the lobby like it was nothing.
Starting point is 00:24:50 So I was like, man, the icon. Like dead or not, man. It could be heavy. Try to move this big dude. Breach. He was probably riding on fumes. She did good.
Starting point is 00:25:09 I mean, I like how she just was all, like quiet in the beginning, but starts to kick in. Yeah, she has that switch in the middle. Yeah. To where she's like, I'm fed up. I'm gonna fight.
Starting point is 00:25:29 We're about to get introduced to one of my least favorite characters of the movie, Judy Rose. That girl stayed screaming the whole movie. What's up? I'm gonna watch. It's about to die. I like the score with this.
Starting point is 00:25:48 It just made it eerie and dreading. Yeah, that's true. Hate spiders. I would immediately try to cover that up. Same as always. Everybody's talking like they know what's going on. They don't get any of shit. Sounds familiar.
Starting point is 00:26:22 Yep. Escape prisoners on the loose from up in Henness. Escape. prisoners. That guy must not been outside. It's hitting the head with the fire poker.
Starting point is 00:26:53 You can go see if there's no food or anything? Water. I'm sure the water's might be good what comes out of the faucet. I don't know what it is. In my house, the water that comes out of the kitchen sink tastes funny. but the water of the bathroom tastes fine.
Starting point is 00:27:18 But my wife, she just uses the filtered water, the refrigerator. Yeah. You know what they're going to do with them? 10, 20 of them in the back of this panel talk. They opened the door and the other ocean. That's a lot of escape prisoners. I know. Even dragging this dude would be heavy.
Starting point is 00:27:50 I'd keep a fire poker. yeah we can do that at least from somewhat of a distance let me just threw that fool at first fool like it was nothing he did he just threw him off the porch but this big guy oh she got a fire poker bag still got to cover that window out when i hit the mute button do you hear that or anything all right i wasn't sure Makes a little beep sound. I thought that was a beer that he had. Wouldn't blame him. So those are the type of matches you need to have.
Starting point is 00:28:44 Strike Anywhere matches. Yeah, but are they really strike anywhere? Sometimes, some of them are. Not all of them. My dad always said, no matter where you are, make sure you have some. Just in case. Well, he said stuff like that to us
Starting point is 00:29:07 I would think of these type of things. Some kind of disaster was happening. Not thinking about the real disaster. I'm thinking about zombie apocalypse and that type of stuff. See, she's at least like interested in listening. She's the ones that just sitting there like the original Barbara. Yeah, zoned out.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Yeah. I don't know what's going on. But I sure. hell know that it ain't no prison break. It ain't no kind of chemical that I ever heard about to make a dead man walk. I don't know. Do you see Resident Evil? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:47 Speaking of that, did you saw a walk from the Rackham City, right? Yeah. All right. We're going to do that one, everyone. I love that movie. I know a lot of people who hated him. I thought it was awesome.
Starting point is 00:30:01 You still have stars? Yeah. It's a lot better than the previous. sequels those I own them all I can enjoy them for what they are
Starting point is 00:30:15 but it wasn't it wasn't Resident Evil it started off kind of sort of I mean don't get me wrong I got the box set too doesn't take long
Starting point is 00:30:26 for the world to fall of fine but them last couple were not good I don't even remember the last I remember is the one that was in 3D when they were on the roof and all those
Starting point is 00:30:41 zombies went falling off. Is that the one they brought your girl back? If it wasn't that one, it was the one after. I don't remember. I think they're all streaming on stars. All of them. We'll tackle those eventually.
Starting point is 00:31:03 I was about to say, we about to go down that rabbit hole? No, not this year. Maybe we'll spring. wrinkle them out throughout the year. I mean, blood that's been like that for a while should be all dark.
Starting point is 00:31:24 I see blood and all that in movies, but the most I've seen wasn't my grandpa that got kicked in the face by oh damn, I forgot fool blasted himself with a shotgun. Oh, we see where the hand came from.
Starting point is 00:31:40 I think that fat guy was chewing at him and ate his off. Then shoved it over the rail. I guess he must have kicked it over. But
Starting point is 00:31:54 anyway, my grandpa got kicked in the face by his horse. There's nothing. It's nothing. It's on it. And I remember we didn't see it. My grandma goes, something happened to your grandpa? We all looked outside and he was leaning against the, his
Starting point is 00:32:07 head, his arms against the corral. And we all ran over there. And dude, it was like a faucet, just pouring onto the ground. And I remember we went over there. We kind of got the truck and put something over his face. And then they took him to town, to the doctor. I mean, the hospital's good 45 minutes away.
Starting point is 00:32:38 So they had to haul ass to town. And we went back over to the carous. and that pool of blood it was like like jello they said it was hard I never seen it like that who the hell is us
Starting point is 00:32:58 I'm in or sir that's me this is Harry Cooper that's his wife calling down the cellar Mr. Cooper my woman's down the two that's Judy Rose Larson I don't know keep Judy Rose downstairs and if he asks who the hell
Starting point is 00:33:13 you are I like them in, um, blood in blood in blood out. Red, right? Was it writer? Red rider? Yeah. Red rider, your mouth, your mouth. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:29 You could have used some help. Maybe you can see through walls, Mr. Ben. I can't. We heard some banging around up here. It could have been those things for all we could tell. You just heard some banging around as all. No, no. That ain't right.
Starting point is 00:33:41 We heard the girl calling out. He seemed all wimpy in this version. Yeah. The other guy in the original seemed a little more tougher. Steelers, boo. That out to Big Jesse, aka the blind Frankenstein. He's a Steelers fan.
Starting point is 00:34:10 Do you watch the Chorus Hallowed Grounds? Sean Clark's channel on YouTube. No. Watch the Neither Living Dead one, the original. They go to the cemetery and the area where it was filmed. And then they do a, I guess
Starting point is 00:34:32 his buddies knew somebody in the building where they filmed Dawn of the Dead. Uh-huh. The roof top the beginning of it when they're fighting those guys in that apartment building
Starting point is 00:34:48 they go to that place and I guess they filmed the basement in that building for the original night of the living dead that basement wasn't in the house they were using well they're taking a hell
Starting point is 00:35:03 a lot more than five miles before we find any real hell is the gas pump out on the skin well they're coming back from a wedding Cooper with tucks they look like it because all three of them
Starting point is 00:35:20 are dressed out besides you might never got to figure out what we're doing person and beers he drinking this is bullshit
Starting point is 00:35:30 can't tell he definitely doesn't look like he's from the area uh sure that's a smart move what do you mean I'm not
Starting point is 00:35:40 sound like New York or Jersey I'm I'm not going down there I know with all the options And Buddha I mean you the right to decide for the rest of us I'm not deciding to you anybody He was never a good guy in anything
Starting point is 00:35:55 I'm gonna that sell a dog Nobody's up Uh House of thousands of corpses Oh that's right he was the I mean he was in it for like 10 minutes I've only been around you a minute I didn't like him in
Starting point is 00:36:09 Henry Portrait of a serial killer Oh, the best friend? Yeah. Tried to rape his own sister. What the hell is going on in that movie? Like I said, Jimmy Rose and I, he wasn't here more than 10 minutes.
Starting point is 00:36:31 And then Mr. Cooper, he'd come banging on you. He rose. You want to do a drinking game, drink every time she says Tommy. I call for help, man. So Uncle Reed, you come walking out of the bedroom. He was dead a minute before.
Starting point is 00:36:55 Swear to God, he was not dead. He couldn't have been. He was an escape prisoner. Made a mistake, that's all. Uncle Regia, he went after my cousin's Satchew. Because, I mean, again, I want to know, but then I don't want to know what caused it all. If it was the radiation from that satellite blowing up, it just brought the dead back to life.
Starting point is 00:37:21 But all those ones in Dawn of the Dead, The ones that didn't look like they had any kind of damage to them. I understood the ones that were kind of chewed up and everything. They were walking around, but everyone else had just looked normal. The original Romero one? Yeah, the original one. And they looked all blue? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:51 How did they all die? Or did it just whatever came down on top of them? Uh-oh. here they come. They sell it quick. That cell is a death trap. Those things don't have much strength. But to get enough of them together,
Starting point is 00:38:12 they may be able to break through the door. They'd be cornered down there. No way out. We'd do better fighting them off there with still some way to escape. A way out is a way in. The window. Maybe we can board them up.
Starting point is 00:38:23 There's no time. Those things are, there's only three of a man. I've handled more than that by myself. Without these two guns. I'm worried about more of them coming. I'd just have everyone go upstairs and then break the staircase up. George, Bichmore,
Starting point is 00:38:35 you want to go to go to. That was my plan at my old house. Our house was up high. It was two stories. Or there wasn't, there was an apartment type downstairs. And we lived in the top part of the house. We were kind of up high from the street.
Starting point is 00:39:07 My idea was just to smash the stairs. stairs so no one can come up. And then the basement stairs crush those so no one can reach us. That was my plan. There was a big giant tree in front of our house.
Starting point is 00:39:25 They pretty much right up against the balcony or the porch. I figured we could rig something up to where if we needed to go down, we can climb down that tree. the branches were up high they weren't like
Starting point is 00:39:43 level where you can grab them so it would have been that would have been our way up and down to get in the house and if need be we could go in the attic yeah they must just came from some kind of wedding or dinner party or something
Starting point is 00:40:05 there must be beer downstairs because he didn't or did he go upstairs and just open the refrigerator? I think he grabbed a six-pack. They've got two. They might have a hundred guns for all I know, but it doesn't matter because it's safer down here. You don't waste that fear.
Starting point is 00:40:34 No. No. ain't safe down there. You got nowhere to run. And there's no way to come in here. I'm not sure about Pennsylvania, but... I wonder if there's tornadoes and all that there. Anyone from Pennsylvania area,
Starting point is 00:41:09 let me let us know. I text Jesse, but he's three hours ahead of us. Well, four for you. He's probably... just by his sleep a bunch of yo-yo's. The last of the big stuff, huh?
Starting point is 00:41:35 Not going to do it. Hey, Tom, give me a hand. Judy Rose. Any minute, she's going to start screaming. That's the kind of rifle I want. Those table legs came off way too easy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:58 Oh, my. a Winchester. I like those those rifles. I hurry and do that other window. Yeah, they must be walking hell slow. Those are the ones that they saw like 20 minutes ago. You wouldn't even have to run.
Starting point is 00:42:30 You should have did that earlier. Yeah, when they were only like a couple. The guns. You're careful. We can get away. You told me to fight. I'm fighting. Here's the switch. Yep.
Starting point is 00:42:47 Not upstairs or down. You're sweet. I think she wasn't just sitting on the couch. All catatonic. We're going to figure out a way to get to that gas and we'll be gone. And you're doing fine. I'm doing fine. We're all doing just fine.
Starting point is 00:43:07 Are you, Ben? Like you said, we've got to be careful. Yeah, he looks. is all stressing out. Crazy little bites. I'll just sit there and talk to her. Take a drink. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:34 With a hurry, this type of stuff, my dad always gets mad. He's a carpenter. He's like, you don't nail nails like that. I'm like, dad calm down. They barely. had those nails in.
Starting point is 00:44:12 Maybe your dad's right. I always wanted to play a zombie in a movie. Oh. Stronger than zombie. I was putting them doors up any way they want. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:44 Not even straight. Luckily they had all these nails. Always. Yeah. I think the best bet is. If you go in somewhere and they don't know you're there, just be quiet.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Yeah. Let me if I go upstairs and cover. Was that his cousin or his uncle? His cousin. You don't want to see that. Drag him and throw him off the window. Yeah, like you threw the other one off the porch. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:40 So that's where she gears out. So she changes her shirt and... Look. Like she's hammering the nails. I like this part We can do something I mean I'm sure the edges of it
Starting point is 00:46:13 yeah I don't think the zombies are punching through the door like that no old school TV move on bunny ears around that's not good stations in Zillion local it's only about 20 austin movies and
Starting point is 00:46:41 every now and then on TV this is when they have the this is just a test when the earthquake happened down the Bay Area in 89 I did not see any of those things come across the TV at all
Starting point is 00:47:00 anytime because the earthquake hit then the power went out but in our area the power came back on a few minutes after the quake and not one of those little emergency things
Starting point is 00:47:14 came across to tell you what to do. Yeah, when we had our earthquake up here, I didn't hear not one emergency broadcast. It took a minute for the stations that come back on. But once they came back on, yeah, none of that happened. They just went straight to helicopter shots
Starting point is 00:47:41 of all the... damage that happened. What were you to then, Gary? Will you open the door then? Cooper? Like this part. Shoot the lock.
Starting point is 00:48:19 Coup on the shop on out there. You open the store, you fuck a asswell. I'm going to shit. What do you open a talk show? I'm in the green, go by. And I'm coming through. We're talking to happen.
Starting point is 00:48:35 Oh. Damn. Different times, everyone. Oh, no, what's her name? Has a Winchester now. I thought he had the Winchester. Barbara has it now. Yeah, shotgun.
Starting point is 00:48:58 Bleak, blow that door handle. That doorknob off, easy. If that basement didn't lead anywhere, why was there a thing there to block the door? Oh. You can't get to sit up here. You want to be able to run downstairs. Yeah, Uncle Reed was doing stuff down there.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Yes. Maybe his still was down there. Making his shine. Judy Rose is about to start yelling. Yeah. I like this, too. Isn't she just a girlfriend? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:00 That's a bitch. Sorry, girl. You take that door. You know what Cooper says here? You want that one? went to. Oh, he got shot in the original one. The
Starting point is 00:50:29 when him and Ben were fighting. Yeah. Cooper, he got shot in the gut. Now she's gearing up. I put these pants on that I found that's going to fit. Yeah. Well, he's got a belt. You can just tighten it. I'll be back for that one.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Yep. So put it on the floor. You have to get help. We have to get a lot. a doctor for Sarah. You're going to try. Since you ain't doing nothing, then you want to start looking for those keys.
Starting point is 00:51:19 He didn't look at all. They were clear as day on there, labeled and all. I'm looking for. They're all looking for the same thing. Oh. I don't know. That irony board ain't going to do much.
Starting point is 00:51:45 That's when I'm saying who does nail the stuff out, however. Yeah, there's all these little gaps in there. I don't think. I think I have anything in here to board up my windows if I had to. I better nail that up. Oh, look in the wrong place. It's downstairs.
Starting point is 00:52:13 You can't let go. How are you going to nail in the nails? I had just one behind that door. Shoot him. Harry, shoot him. Hit him in the head with something. Ooh. Rudy Rose has to go.
Starting point is 00:52:37 Yep, throw her outside. They're dead, but they're coming right for us. It's impossible. It just can't be. You can throw them up and the window. You could throw them by yourself, Ben. You toss the bodies. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:52:58 What's the guy's... Ooh. Yeah. I know you're trying to prove a point, but you're wasting bullets. Yeah. You're losing it, girl. They said they found that guy.
Starting point is 00:53:21 I like this line right here. I lost a long time ago, and I do not plan on losing anything else. you can talk to me about losing it when you stop screaming at each other like a bunch of two-year-old you should have ended that with bitch original Barbara was not saying anything like that at all
Starting point is 00:53:42 hell no she was just sitting on the couch that skinny one that came to the window they said he was a cab driver and they liked the way it looks hey you want to be in this movie all right it would be best to put screws if I had a power drill,
Starting point is 00:54:01 nails, man. You just push those right out. Only a couple. They can make it around them. Yeah, I would have left a while ago. She's putting in the bullets the wrong way? You're not supposed to pay attention to that. I don't think you put it in head first.
Starting point is 00:54:34 It rearranged itself. is that door yeah I'll say that don't door go outside all they did was board up the window you better put cross boards all the way across to keep it shed and put the boards laying right there one of the top one of the bottom
Starting point is 00:54:56 and one in the middle I don't like the way they just said place it any away and then just start nailing it in the wall yeah i mean i guess we're supposed to take it as they're like in a rush panicking i here's the tv upstairs on that trans like state seems to uh
Starting point is 00:55:25 characterize the assailants clearly a behavior of disorder but what could have caused a widespread a behavior disorder right speculation on everything from the ozone layer and chemical weapons to voodoo mysticism and organisms from space biologists in stocks in California have released reports oh speaking of space have you seen that movie undead
Starting point is 00:55:52 uh spoiler alert yeah it it started from somebody from space turned into zombies why is news coming out of Stockton, California? I go all the way to kill a Cali to get your news. A bacteria or a virus that has a mind-altering effect on its victims. So how such a germ could have been delivered so quickly and over such a vast area, that's remained a mystery. It's going wrong.
Starting point is 00:56:26 The religious people. Well, if the rapture happened last month, we got left behind. Did you see those movies? The Kirk Cameron ones? Yeah. No. I only seen the first one. I didn't even know it was a religious movie, but all you should watch this movie, it's good.
Starting point is 00:56:59 I think I've seen part of the Nick Cage remake. Kirk Cameron went crazy. Yeah, I can't say I agree with a lot of things he says. Yeah. Just break the TV. Yeah, see, this barbara's thinking. Look at Judy Rose doing something out of the screaming. I just got a fresh ponytail

Starting point is 00:58:55 I like she just assumed Yeah, because the other one, the gas one was labeled gas. I guess I assumed he keep the gas pump keys with his house and truck keys. I would. You wouldn't keep them on a separate key? No, if they'd be on my, no, yeah. If anything, at least keep them on a key rack by the, the door, not in the basement.
Starting point is 00:59:37 You can't go out without the guns. They have time, stuff. Now, something happens. I want that right one here. I don't want to need locked doors in between me and this guy. Crying out loud. Damn. The only way I'm going out there is with you and that rifle

Starting point is 01:12:34 That was fun. Stony beer, whatever that is. And there's nine of them shooting at those zombies hanging in the trees. Well, they said it best in Dawn of the Dead when they flew over all these guys. And Ken Farrears, like,
Starting point is 01:13:02 damn, these good old boys are just loving it. Like, how does this smell? They just throw dead bodies in a pile dumping gas. on them. Although made it back to the house. Chainsaw. That's a little cheap door. Look how flimsy that is. They could have just busted it.
Starting point is 01:13:38 Didn't do the chainsaw. I was all shocked right here. Because Ben, he's a zombie now. So is it like the Walking Dead? Because he never got bit or anything. I think if you just die, he'd come back. So I assume it's airborne. It's in the air. There may be more of them. I like this part.
