This is Squidward Tannicles, telling all of you to listen to and watch if you could. The horror returns. Reminds me of SpongeBob coming to work every day. He returns over and over again. It's terrible. Oh! Victims, for those of you who delight and dread, who fantasize about fear, who glorify gore, welcome.

You have found the place. I swear, the horror returns. Listeners beware. This podcast contains major plot spoilers and the foulest of language. Join us in celebrating the old and the new, the best, and the worst in horror. To The Hoare Returns, I'm Lance, and with me as always are my co-host, Brian, Philip, and the Nez. How's it going, guys?

Going good. What's up with you, Nez? I heard your Deadpool talk already, man, but you're ready to talk some more? Yeah, I'm good, man. Just, yeah, it was, yeah. If you guys have heard it already, you know, but I'm just about to repeat myself.

Yeah, you might get some fresh insights, man. Yeah. All right, well, let's jump into Cool of the Week then, because we got a lot to cover to All right. Nas, what was your cool of the week? A few listeners, listen to one of my many shows. Up to the Challenge, the Zisu, the host. He's the host, and I'm the co-host of E-Society.

And then we also do E-Society Presents, up to the challenge. And he challenged me to a TV show that's on HBO called Barry. Have any of you guys seen that? Oh, yeah. I don't even know what that is. Oh, my God. It was awesome. Yeah, I've heard good things Usually when we do challenges

I'll maybe watch a couple episodes And then just judge it by that But he's like, no, you got to watch the whole thing So I was kind of like Oh, really? Because he's been challenging me to these TV series That I like, but then I really can't get back to him Because we've got other things to watch

And so I was like, all right, let me Try it. And I watched it and man The first couple episodes weren't all that but then it sucked me in by the fourth one, and then I was just hooked all the way of the end. And when it was said and done, the whole series is awesome. Yeah, what is it, eight episodes?

Yeah, and they're only half hour, so you can get through it pretty quick. Yeah, I heard it started getting it really dark toward the end. Yeah, it did. I mean, that's why I enjoyed it. Cool. All right, Brian. I'm going to run through my really quick scene, the Sandman. executive produced by

Stan Lee. All I got to say is people stop stealing his fucking name to put his name on. This movie is fucking trash. Oh no. What else I see? Corbyn Nash. Is it like animated?

No, it's like a fucking garbage movie. I don't know. It's a live action movie. It's about a little girl who can like, she like, manifest some kind of ghost demon thing and she's got like psychic powers and it's all a mismash of

bullshit and it's a sci-fi original so oh okay next up I'm sorry is it as bad as the bye-bo man

oh uh-oh conundgers damn it Lance you kind of you kind of you kind of just put me on the spot I don't know uh-oh

it could be speaking of it and go ahead I sat through that one more time and it was just as bad as the first time I was hoping maybe it would have been a little better no it's still garbage

did it get worse yes because I knew what was coming and I was just like a buddy of mine was like oh man because I liked it and I was like oh really and his wife wanted to watch it and then I was like, oh,

so it's still trash. Ah, that sucks. I also seen Corby Nash as Cory Feldman in it, and I will say he was actually pretty entertaining, and it's like a vampire movie.

Oh, okay. But I definitely can't recommend it. It wasn't the greatest fucking movie. Well, Corey Feldman's in it. But my cool of the week, I got to watch The Wildling Oh yeah We reviewed this

I'm gonna say first of all Live Tyler Again fucking one note Emotionless Oh wow Through this fucking whole movie But I actually like the movie If we were reviewing it for the show

I would definitely pair it up With like ginger snaps Or something like that Oh that'd be cool So I do recommend this It's got Brad Duroff in it So Yeah I saw that one too

Oh you saw that one Yeah it was really good. I liked it. Yeah, I just, I can't get behind Liv Tyler. And she's a fucking, she's the sheriff in this one. Yeah, it's a weird role for her. Sheriff, Sheriff,

is she in the whole movie? Yeah. I have no problem with her. Main character. That's pretty much all I see. I did finish Barry also. I do recommend that series too.

That was so awesome. I couldn't believe it. I mean, it was totally something different for Bill Hader. And, wow. Oh, yeah. Okay. I know what you're talking about now. Now you know.

I think it's an HBO show. Check it out. Man, I watched The Cured this week. The Cure. It's the zombie fluid. So this is, we did, We watched the trailer for it at some point. I do.

With Juno or whatever? Yeah. I don't know. I know. I always call our Juno, too. But yeah, it's after they have already conquered the whole zombie thing

and it came up with a cure. And now they're trying to put these cure people and assimilate them back into society. And it gets real political with it. It's a little bit like the girl with all the gifts, where it's kind of slow moving. but it does a really cool job of world building and I liked it

yeah that was really good they get like old school racism thrown at them like you know people painting on their windows and you know catching a brick through the window and stuff like that get out of here we don't want you here kind of deal for all these people

who have been infected and are now cured and so then they start some sort of terrorist organization at some point. So that's about as far as I'll go with it. No spoilers. But it was a pretty kick-ass movie, man. If you're willing to sit in it for the long haul. What was it on? I think it's on AT&T on demand. Ah, okay. Yeah. It's out there, Kevin. Yeah. All right. That's where. Hey, the two movies you saw, Brian, are they on any platform like Amazon or Netflix or anything?

No They're out Okay Fair enough Oh Speaking of zombies Have you guys Checked out

Cargo on Netflix? Oh no Not not yet It's depressing I'm not I'm not done with it I got like maybe another Half hour

And Oh no It's interesting But it's like It's just depressing Now is that I feel bad It's like

but it's worth checking out. If that's not a glowing endorsement, I don't know what it is. Let's all rush out and see it, huh? I've got it in my queue. I mean, I heard that it was, it had some, it was kind of on a down note a little bit, but that it was really well done. Yeah, I mean, it's really good. I mean, all the acting and Bilbo Baggins, he's good and pretty much everything is in.

But it's just like, huh, you're waiting for that, that ray of sunshine and well maybe it's at the end because I'm not at the end yet I'm almost to the end but right now right or it may get worse may get worse man

I just don't want it to end like the road if you guys have seen the movie I've read the book and I've seen the movie was the book like way more depressing um it was it was probably a little bit more simplistic I mean the book was like really, really short, man.

I mean, there was actually, this is one of the few where there was probably more in the movie than there was in the book. All right, cool. So it was like a super short book, man, like maybe 130 pages or something like that. Kind of like annihilation was. And so

I'm on the second book in that now, authority, and it's, I'm about halfway through it, and it, you can tell that the movie incorporated some of that, so now I'm concerned they may not come out with two more two more movies. Well, I like

Deniilation. I kind of hope that they do. I was hopeful they would, man. But we'll see what happens. Hey, my cool of the week, I'm going to, I got a cool of the week TV show big time, which has been covered before, I think, last week even.

So before I go into that, my big cool, cool of the week, big shout out to Richard, the manager at the spring AMC movie theater here. I had a, I had one hell of a fucked. Oh, and my uncool of the week is getting to be movie past, damn it. Uh-oh. Yeah, it's starting to show some cracks on the edges, guys, this program. We knew it was going to happen. We knew the center could not hold. It was

just a matter of time. Yeah, well, they changed up their rules, huh? Man, well, not only that, but I'll tell you what I did. I had it all planned out. I bought my Deadpool ticket for the first 940 showing at the Cinnamark. And so I was all set for that and then I was going to wait and get because overboard had been out for a week already so I was going to wait and use my I have a movie pass and AJ has a movie pass so

I grabbed her phone and her movie pass and I went up to the the AMC because the damn cinema had already sold out overboard they put it in a goddamn tiny theater I don't know why they put it in like their smallest like a theater you might show

an indie movie in or something so the only thing left was the front row So I was going to go up to AMC, pick up the tickets, head over and watch the movie at Cinemart. So I go up there and freaking movie pass doesn't work, dude. I do it the right way. I set it up through the phones and everything. And then I go in there to scan the cards. And they both of them say card declined.

Really? Yeah, Brian, didn't you run into that one time? Yeah, I have a couple times. But I know I just got an update on my app. today. But I don't know. This extra take a picture of your ticket bullshit is really

stupid and inconvenient. Yeah, and I'm wondering why they do that. I think to kick people off. Somebody was trying to pull something, so I think that was the next thing. And I did that last week. No problem.

I had no problem with it. I'm still a movie pass fan, but I'm reading an article now that they made, they may not have enough money to last two more months, guys. So this may be it. And I got the one year, so I guess I'll just be stuck holding the card. But I guess go see as many movies as you can in the next two months, right? Yeah.

I guess so. But I thought it was so ironic that my hero, Richard, up there at AMC, I'm always going to go up there to check out my movies now because, man, this dude, he went back and he said, hold on, I'll take care of you. He saw that I had a movie pass, and it's ironic considering, you know, AMC is supposed to be the mortal enemy of movie pass here, and that's the theater where this went down. Went back, got me a couple of passes. Random Thuey said, you're set, man. Come on back tonight and watch the movie, so.

All right. Yeah, I'm the number one fan, dude. I hope you're listening. I gave him a card, so we'll see what happens. Awesome. Yeah, real cool of the week is definitely, Philip, you mentioned it last week, the Handmaid's Tale. Oh, yeah. easily the most terrifying

TV show on right now this is like the most horrific frightening paranoid just makes you feel really really paranoid of watching it's like something like this could really happen

because it kind of goes in flashbacks and builds up to how it happened it didn't just happen overnight but once things fell in place and we started giving the government way too much control over our security. It was pretty much downhill

almost immediately. You guys watching this? What's the the whole premise of it? I want to watch it. Yeah, it's in the not too distant future, and there have been a... I don't want to spoil too much, but there were like a number of terrorist attacks.

Like Americans, killing Americans, gun violence, all this sound kind of familiar. Doing that any... Yeah, it got so out of hand that they They, basically, they announced martial law. And what do people go back to, you know, in times like that? They fell back on religion.

So basically, you just go back to the really, really old-fashioned roles of, like, men and women to 300 years ago. Just it sets the whole clock back. And there's other countries where there's still more freedoms, but America's basically fucked. And it's just, it's just frightening, dude. to mean like you're with you're with you're with the main Elizabeth Moss is the main character offred is her name and uh it's like everything that happens you almost feel like you're her it's like you're they do a really good job of filming it and carrying it out i know she's going to be in the new uh movie us that's coming out next year the jordan peel movie we're all looking forward to

oh yeah um is this this is all on hulu right yeah yeah it's a it's a it's a it's on Hulu and I think we're like, we're like halfway through the second season right now. It's 10 episodes of season. You got to wait. Yeah. Yeah, I'm sorry. Yeah, so far one and a half, but it's already been greenlit for the third season. So are they like Netflix and just throw the whole thing on there or is it like you got to wait?

Man, unfortunately, no. No. You got to wait. That's the shitty part. But I tried to hold off as long as I could and then finally watched the first episode about a week ago. And now it's like I'm waiting for the next one to drop, you know? There's that problem. Yeah.

I've seen an episode here and there, but I haven't actually gone back and watched it from the beginning. I need to do that. Yeah, you definitely want to follow it from the beginning. It's one of those American gods that I rewatched, and I'm actually probably going to watch that one a third time even before the second season. This is definitely one that deserves a rewatch. There's so much going on in it. Yeah.

Speaking of Hulu, have you guys seen that? What the hell is it called? 11-2263? I started it. It was so different from the book. I got pissed off and quit watching it. Brian? I was going to.

started and I was told to not not to waste my time uh-oh well if you any up to the challenges listen are listening to this I watched one episode and damn it and I'm hooked oh yeah I got to see where it's going

I can't Zisu if you're listening damn you that's just a spoiler for up to the challenge because that's our next one that's good dude I'm glad you're enjoying it it probably just because you know it was so different from the book

is just what rubbed me the wrong way you know oh yeah I'm gonna finish it because damn it I have to all right well I got a lot cool going on this week guys so Brian we got anything cool coming out soon any any horror headlines

yeah let's start with the TV though Brian Fuller leaves another fucking show what I read that he's left and Rice is the Manpire Chronicle for like why is he getting in conflicts with people or they never really say I mean sometimes they might throw in the usual creative differences or scheduling but

no real reason why he leaves these shows I think maybe he gets his name attached to too many and it's just too much but I don't even know what he's really doing right now I just all you hear about is everything he's not doing. I know. Stuff that he keeps leaving. Yeah.

Let's see. John Fabro's Star Wars TV series is going to take place seven years after Return of the Jedi. That's cool. When is that supposed to come out? Whenever Disney figures out when they're going to release their streaming service, I think early next year. Oh, yeah. Kind of open the air, huh? Yeah.

on some comic book movie news Jake Jeline Hall and talks to play Mysterio in the Spider-Man sequel. Hmm. Strange odd choice. And Michael Keaton is set to return as the vulture.

Okay. Hmm. What do you think about that, Niz? Is it gonna be in that big bubble? A bubble boy? I hope so. I didn't see

someone to do like a Photoshop picture of that. Yeah. That's cool. Or is he going to be out in the open range again with the Joker? Oh. You know that's the board there.

I'm all for it. I mean, I like Jake Gyllenhaal. He's good. A buddy of mine said he's the right age for Mysterio. So, yeah, I agree with that. That's why I'm okay with it. Oh, okay.

I hadn't done me wrong yet I'll see what happens Yeah Let's see We talked about Holly Berry And talks to join John Wick Chapter 3 She's officially casted

Along with Angelica Houston Okay That should be interesting And we got a release date for John Wick Chapter 3 May 17th 2019 Okay Okay

Let's see Stephen King and Joe Hills In the Tall Grass is headed to Netflix Lance, I know you read a lot of Stephen King. You ever read that one? I think so. I think this is like a short story or a novella that came out. I don't remember too much about it though. Do you have like a description or

idea of what the show's about? No, I could pull it up. Do you know if it's a film, a Netflix film, or like a series? I think it's going to be a film. Okay. They've been doing good with those lately. That's for sure.

Yeah. And I know it's... They've been doing a bunch of them. They cast a James Marsden. A lot of people, if you're watching Westworld, he's in Westworld. He was Cyclops and X-Men. Oh, yeah. Okay.

series. Oh, yeah. Okay. Stephen King, Netflix. They're doing pretty good so far. And let's see. Lance, you brought up Elizabeth Moss joining Jordan Peel's next movie Us.

They also cast it they also cast a Lepida Nyango as the lead. They got a lot of, I think they got a lot of likes on our Facebook page. Yeah. And also, Winston Duke is in Toxtic

Star. A lot of people, if you don't know him, he was in Baku in Black Panther. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. Winston Duke? I'm looking him up now here. Hold on.

He was one of the best parts of Black Panther. Okay, this dude. All right. He hasn't been in too much before. This, has he? No, he kind of... A lot of people saying him being in Black Panther kind of, like, broke him out there, put him out there. We'll tend to do that.

We've got a couple of minutes in Infinity War. Right. Yep. And our last little bit of news, some it casting. We finally have our Stanley and Eddie with actors Eddie Bean

and James Ranson. Not as familiar with them as the other really big names that came out. I know Eddie Bean from, if anybody watches power on stars. he's on that show and uh james ranson

he was in both of the sinister movies that's not doing much for me but okay give him a shot and uh that is all the news we have all right well then uh i got one really quick what's you got niz

one real quick for for you uh for you guys uh brian mainly for you what do you think of uh this new um solo snake eyes movie trash I don't know if you guys

heard our latest East Society I went on a little rant about it I mean yes Ray Park needs to be snake eyes again if they do it and just get it away from the first two movies because

I don't know what they were trying to do there is it is it the same people that did the original G.I. Joe movies doing this one? I don't know. They just said Paramount. I don't know who is going to do it. I hope it's not them. And I just want Hasbro and Paramount to,

you got all this source material out there. Don't make up some stupid story and throw it on the screen. I mean, just go back and read a couple of issues of Snake Eyes. We had a ton of good solo stories, silent interlude being the main one, issue 21, read that and make it into a movie. And I'm like, so I don't know, my fingers are crossed, good or bad, I'm still going to see it. And that's been one of the big things on my mind lately. So I'm pretty sure you're going to hate it.

I heard you guys talking about it. And I'm like, you keep seeing snake, seeing snake eyes, snake guys. I'm thinking, what the fucking Nicholas Cage movie? They're remaking that for 98? And then you said, G.I. Joe, and I'm like, okay, that's why I don't know who the fuck this is. You don't know who snake eyes?

You didn't read G. I'm not a G.I. Joe fan. I had one when I was like four years old. I had the big one in the locker box. The one that's like as tall as I was. This is the 80s versions, the real Ameri-era era. I got you.

You don't remember our. Transformers review, Lance is a Transformers guy. I don't get into that. I thought the movie was okay. Good job. All right, man. Take the microphone away from him. All right.

On that note, y'all ready to take a trip. Don't be too enthusiastic, boys. You'll bring you the big, the small, and sometimes the very, very weird. Oh, yeah, that's happening this week. All right. Well, what is it, man? What's the first new trailer? All right.

All right. We're going to start with a couple of independent movies. First one is Our House, starring Nicola Pets and Thomas Mann, directed by Anthony Scott Burns. What did you guys think of this movie, which I felt like they'd done something like this before? Yeah. It's even got a generic name, Our House. I hate that name. Didn't Michael Keaton do a movie like this?

What? What was the name of it? I think it was called the white noise or something where he was using like a radio or electrical something to talk to the other side. Yeah, that movie sucked too. This is terrible. Please don't make us watch it, Mr. Brian. Please don't make us watch it. I'll take one for the team and I'll watch it.

Yeah. I'm going to say it looks cool, but I'll probably never watch it. July 27th, if anybody at all is interested. Summer Blackbuster. Next one we're going to talk about is The Hollow Child, starring Jessica McLeod, Hannah, Shurami, and John Emmett Tracy, directed by Jeremy Luter. What did you guys think?

I'm actually a little more excited about this one. It's, yeah, I mean, it's, it looks like it's probably going to start slow, but it's got potential. Yeah, well, you've got a little, you've got a little girl about that age. So you probably have nightmares about this kind of shit. Oh, I know, right? I think this is going to hang off of the kids' performance, basically. If she's horrible, I think the movie's going to be garbage. Uh, yeah.

And that's got potential when she comes back and starts acting weird or whatever. Right. Well, we'll see. Oh, man. And this one is currently available now. If anybody wants to set sale, I've seen it out there. Hey, you know what this reminded me of a lot? Huh.

What was that one movie we did for the Christmas show? What was it called? A Christmas Horror Tale or some of the one with William Shatner in it being the radio TV? Oh, yeah. A Christmas horror story? Yeah, isn't this that fucking, all this is is that same exact story just with a little girl instead of a boy? Probably. I mean, the tree and the demon and everything, right?

Yeah, it looks a little tall man-ish to me. Yeah? Yeah. I'll tell you what, I'm probably, it's available now, so I'll speak on it next week. All right. I may watch it. I'll take another one for the team. I'm taking a lot.

in the right direction. Let's see. Next one we're going to talk about is the Happy Time Murders starring Melissa McCarthy, Elizabeth Banks, Joe McHale, and Maya Rudolph, directed by Brian. I can't wait to do this.

This looks glorious. I believe this is going to go on our schedule, and somebody recommended that we do meet the Feebles. Is that Peter Jackson? Yeah, if that's the Peter Jackson one, that might be perfect. I got the Who Frame Roger Rabbit vibe,

so there's probably plenty you could match up with this one. Match up the Muppet movie. The Muppet movie. Kids can't watch this one, no. No, no. They showed it. There's Muppet Jizz everywhere.

Yeah, they showed it When I seen Deadpool 2 yesterday and there was a bunch of kids in the theater. Oh, yeah. I love that. He shouldn't have been there watching Deadpool 2? Exactly. I got a story about that too. Oh, okay.

Let's see. The director, Brian Henson, he is the son of who, Brian? I mean, who do you think, Brian? Jim Henson. There you go. Check that out. I didn't know that. This looks crazy, but in all the right ways.

Yes. August 17th. And one more that I'm a little excited about is the house that Jack built, starring Matt Damon, directed by Lars von Trier. Matt Dillon. Matt Dillon. Sorry. Typo.

Matt Dillon. All right. Man, I've been having tapos the last two weeks. Oh, Matt Dillon. Big difference. Yeah, I had Marilyn Manson last week. Right. Yeah, that's an easy mistake.

I'm 100% anti-Lars Vantrier, so enjoy it, boys. I thought this looked really interesting and really dark. Oh, Lars is going to kill me. He's from Denmark. Sorry to put down your country, man, Lars, but this guy fucking sucks. All he does is depressing shit. This one looks interesting and kind of quirky. it could go really wrong

I don't know man I was reading some stuff and we've talked about this Brian how all these movies a hundred people left because they couldn't handle it Oh yeah

Oh so I don't know I mean when I see it I'll have my opinion I still want to see it Yeah But I don't trust the Well it's usually all the people

That don't watch these type of movies Yeah. The other ones that get up and walk out and throw up and pass out in the aisle and all that. Allegedly. Yeah. Those may be people that were hired to do that. Have a brain hemorrhage while they're in the audience. Oh my God, it's so gross.

I can't take it. I can't take it anymore. So if anybody's looking for a nice holiday movie, this will be out November 29. All right. Lars Van Trit's got to be a feel-good movie for sure. Absolutely. All right. Really quick. Speaking of a movie that everyone, some people walked out and went crazy over, Blind Frankenstein sent me a link yesterday.

Have you guys seen that movie, a Serbian film? Unfortunately. I haven't seen it. No. Remember the, Brian, a Serbian film. Oh, that's an, okay. Brian, remember the baby? yeah

yeah they're selling that prop online yeah they're selling that baby prop and I was like no way that that's the only scene

that I had to close my eyes I couldn't handle it but there'd be no way I mean the list thing I saw on there was like I think it was like three grand or something like that

but there's some there's weirdos out there someone will buy it but yeah I saw that movie, and that's probably one movie I'll never go back to. Oh, wow.

I bought it. I loved it. But I just don't like that scene. Wow. Even if I had three grand to blow, no. I couldn't. Couldn't bring yourself to do it, huh? No, man, just thinking about it.

No. Give you nightmares. Yeah. But if you two haven't seen it. It's right down the hole. way. If you guys Philip and

Lance, I should check it out. Yeah, I might check it out sometime. I've heard good, good and bad. I guarantee you,

if you guys check it out this week, it will neither be on your cool or not cool. Definitely. Oh, really? Yes.

Huh. Okay. Polarizing. I have the Blu-ray and it says unrated. It's the rated one because it's cut.

The one I need to get is the DVD version. That one's uncut because there was a couple scenes that went on a little bit long because I've seen both versions and The uncut. The real uncut one is is a little bit better in my opinion I know there's some people out there screaming at me saying that movie's stupid and they hate it, but I'm one of those weirdos. I love it Okay. Yeah, you're going to have to watch it now. I'm still thinking about it. I'm still in the air disturbing baby comes to mind but we'll see

on that note that was the last trailer all right moving on philip got any uh we got any feedback this week regarding fox's cancellation of lucifer uh ryan stephen says ain't that's some shit do you guys like that one never seen it no uh uh uh i watched the first season i thought it was pretty cool i never watched it after that though

A little bit of news. I guess they will be showing two episodes, two new episodes in the next month. So I don't know why. They had a couple that were done and they'll just throw them out there, I guess. Yeah, yeah. So fans of that, look for two new episodes and then that's it. It'll leave you with a cliffhanger.

Interesting. Okay. Okay, folks. I need a vote. I'm getting number 20. This is from Samantha, I think, right? Oh, yeah, yeah, that makes sense. Let's see. She says, okay, folks, I need a vote.

I'm getting in number 26 of my 52 horror films. And we've narrowed it down to these three for tonight. We're just looking for some pros and cons. Chances are we'll see them at some point. But since this is the horror group, I like to ask for opinions. Feel free to add one if you want. Thanks. Patrick Lear says,

uh wow i haven't seen either of these which way would what uh what three movies were they i don't have that up here i'm gonna pull it right now they were really obscure movies i've never heard of like net netflix fodder uh i know she usually hasn't seen them yeah she usually goes on like amazon prime and stuff like that so uh that makes sense amazon prime is a vast wasteland at times uh one of them was called Anna. Another one was 21 days, and then the next one was the Blackwell Ghost. And the only one I picked Anna because I recognize the cast. Okay.

I don't even know if I've heard of it. Yeah. The Blackwell Ghost was trash. I didn't like it. Oh. Oh, there you go. There's one. I don't know those other two.

But Patrick says, wow, I haven't seen either of these. have to see them too. It's always good to find diamonds in the rough. And yes, that's how it usually works. Sift through a lot of crap to find one. It sounds like you have a leg up on the rest of us. I usually have to apply the shotgun method, which means I miss a lot of things to get in the way. Samantha Bean says, wow, I feel like an astronaut now. So obviously, you know, I lost this bet, and I'm a researcher, uh, mostly deal with,

uh, military and historical data, and, uh, writer, editor by trade. So you bet your ass, I set to re-researching some horror slash scary movies,

the second I lost. I'm not even kidding when I tell you, I have a notebook filled with lists of movies ranked by various sources, volumes of articles written on different production companies and directors, uh, reviews from a slew of film festivals, and then handwritten list of movies suggested by friends.

Jim is seen quite a few in his lifetime, mostly all mainstream, so we try and find new movies for him as well. If there's one thing I've learned through this process, it's that the horror film genre is massive. I'm willing to bet it's the largest catalog of movies ever made, and 80% of them are garbage. Oh, no. Maybe more. That being said, finding really original quality films has been tough. I've also learned that a decent majority of the good ones hardly get circulation on mainstream, or like major theater releases.

Small companies with low budgets can pump out some real crap, but every now and again, you get some pure gems. And sci-fi, though, known for some of its cheesy and awful pile of eye-rolling films, can really bring some well-done flicks that can't be matched by a multi-million dollar counterpart. Or example, truth or dare. Huh. It says, I told you, I told you all that we watched the sci-fi movie back in October, and she reviewed it in her album. It was, it was good, not mind-blowing, but it was really good, and we'd see it again with friends. Months later, much to my disappointment, Jason Blum from Blumhouse, which I love and respect, linked up with Universal to release a different huge budget version of the same film.

There's the first problem. so what is Tom Cruise in it? Oh, you're talking about I know. Yeah. And it was utter garbage. Pure shit. Bottom line is that I probably am going overboard

in my quest to complete my bet. But if I do something, I don't do it half-ass, and I approach it seriously. And the surprising thing is that through all of this, I've learned a lot, and so is Jim. I actually enjoy some of the ones we've seen.

Of course, a few have absolutely horrified me, but that is the bet. I think we'll go with Anna after we get back from DP2. And as always, you'll be able to see my review. There you go, Brian. She took your advice. There you go. Let's see.

Oh, yeah, thanks for the feedback. As always, she goes into serious detail on this stuff. Oh, yeah, big time. We're looking for that review, too. All right, so Art Murillo sent us a picture of his son dressed as Freddy at Comic-Con, picking a fight with Jason. I like it. Regarding the upcoming Sandman movie, uh-oh. Adam Bunce looks like someone's using the power of attorney to make some money.

Uh-oh. Stop stealing Therley's money. What happens when he dies? Let's see. Kevin Ness says Spit on your grave, Original 4, remake 9. What?

Nice. The fucking is Nez talking about, man. The original was boring. Dude, it was ten times creepier than that stupid-ass, lame-ass remake, man. Not even, dude. That remake was awesome, man. All the kills were badass,

and it was more entertaining. I mean, the original, I can give the original credit for what it was. It is a classic, and I know a lot of people love it, but I was like, come on, something happened. It was one of those ones that it was hyped up to me. Oh, it's this. Yeah. And the reason, I'll make you faint and walk out of the theater.

Right. I finally saw it. I saw it a long time ago, and I was all ready for that. And that's what? I was like, what the hell were they talking about? I can see that. If you come in, you know, expecting some really in-your-face shit watching a really old movie, sometimes it's a little bit let down, you know? Sure, sure.

That let me down in the original last house on the left. I mean, that was another one. I mean, I didn't see it when it first came out, and I saw it when it came out on VHS. VHS tapes for you young listeners that don't know what those are. but I was like okay cool because I finally got a copy of it and I sat there my friend's house and put it in after school one day watched it he was all grossed out and I was like that's it I mean how I heard about it I read it about it in like Fangoria and and other horror magazines like that and and same thing with I spit on your grave same thing I

heard about it that way was was reading about it it was all pre-internet and everything so and I was just like I was left out I didn't even want to see the remake if I spit on your grave, but I was like, you know what, nothing else is on. And I found it. So I threw it on. And I enjoyed that one way more. The second one, eh. The third one was better than the second, but it was like the ending.

I was like, okay, whatever. But I really enjoyed the remake. I thought it was awesome. Yeah, that's cool, man, to each their own, you know. Philip, you like the remake better too, right? Yeah, well, I've never seen the original. Um, okay. But I, I wasn't mad at the remake.

I, it's just, not my particular genre of the film, man. It's a little uncomfortable to watch at times. Uh, Brian, you preferred the remake too, right? Yeah. I thought, uh, the actress and the original one was probably the best part. Everything else was just kind of, you know, me. Right. Well, uh, Alfonso Salazar says, uh, revenge was a bloody good time.

So I think we all pretty much. much like that one, huh? Mm-hmm. Yeah. I didn't see it yet. I listened to you guys review, and I stopped right before spoilers. Yeah, that's a good idea. Good idea.

Because there's a lot that goes on. Yeah, so I just, I just, when I see it, I'll see it. Cool. Let's see. Regarding the Exorcist cancellation, Darren Wilson says, I make the wow face, but I'm only partially into season two. Stephen Lobelad says lame lame that it's getting canceled

or the show's like probably that it's getting canceled right Brian yeah and speaking of Stephen well played sir that guy has these Jordan crying face pictures like on deck like my rocket's lost

really bad really bad and I haven't been able to watch the last couple games but I know my team when I go on Facebook and he sends me a picture. Yeah. Well played, sir. Well played.

Yeah, that bad. He's got him in the chambers locked and loaded. He sent me a James Hardin picture. And all James Hardin's beard is just little Jordan crying faces. Wow. Somebody puts an effort into that one. Yeah. And, yeah, that fool.

He'd been getting me all year with my teams. And then when my sharks were out of it with the quickness, he came out of nowhere. Right before I went to sleep. I was like dreading to look on Facebook after they lost. Yeah, because you know it's coming. Yeah. Steve, I love you, brother. You know that.

But damn you. Hopefully the Rockets will hang in there a little longer. I'm a little worried about them. A little? Yeah. Let's see. About the casting of Lupia Nyeong-O in Jordan Peels Us, Sarah Eliasson says, yes. Who is Lupia Nong-O?

Oh, no-er, man. I think it's Lupita. I think when I was typing that, I missed it. Oh, yeah. She is in Black Panther. Oh, okay, okay. 12 years of the slave. She's been in some good movies.

Yeah, a lot of big budget stuff. Yeah. All right. Yeah. That sounds cool. She's actually, I didn't report on it. She's going to be, you guys ever see The Killer with Chowee on Fat? Yeah.

Awesome. Yeah, she's going to be in the remake. I don't know if she's going to be the main person, but I know she's been getting a lot of roles since Black Panther. Yeah. Well, and everything that she does now is going to suddenly. turn into a big movie. So that's cool. So remaking that?

Why? Because they remake everything. Everything. Well, even if they did it right the first time, I'll keep going. That's it for feedback this week. We love everybody who reaches out to us. Thank you so much. You can always reach us at the horror returns at gmail.com.

So you guys ready to jump into the featured attractions? We reviewed the new film, Deadpool 2, as well as a quick retrospective on the full series, rest and peace, by the way, Ash versus Evil Dead. Well, with that, I'm going to have to bow out because I'm behind, and I don't want to be in it to be spoiled. Oh, no, you're not going to give us your Deadpool thoughts, man? Oh, no, not. I mean, evil did. Oh, okay. All right. I mean, you're going to, you're going to, you need somebody to message you when we're done talking spoilers, or what?

I could just do, if you can do the Deadpool first, man, I'm all aboard. Well, how far, let me ask you this. How far are you into Ash? I'm only like maybe halfway through the. second season. Okay. Yeah, I think we're going to mainly spoil

like the first, the first season. Okay. Because, well, I don't know. We may have to talk about the ending.

Yeah, see, that's what I'm going to hear. Yeah, that's the problem, man, that's the problem. That's all.

We can do Deadpool, too. All right, let's jump it. Let's, let's, let's, let's,

let's, Have a snack. Okay, Deadpool 2. All right, we're going to start with that. A little trivia for Deadpool 2. Director, David Leach, also known for, hey, John Wick and Atomic Blonde. There you go.

Gives it to you in the credits a little. Yeah. Writers were Ret. Reese, Paul Wernick, and Ryan Reynolds. On August, here's some, start off with some not-so-funny trivia, unfortunately. I hadn't heard about this one. Maybe I did hear about this. But on August 16th, 2017, a stunt woman named Joy Harris died while filming a stunt on a motorcycle.

And production stopped for two days. You heard that one, Brian? Yeah, I heard about that one. That sucks. Yeah. Okay, here we go. Brad Pitt, Dolph Lundgren, Mel Gibson, Kurt Russell, Bruce Willis, Alec Baldwin, Sliced Alone, Ardle Schwarzenegger, Stephen Lang,

I think he would have been great. Ron Perlman, Pierce Broston, and Brousin, and David Harper were all considered for the role of cable. Huh. I would have gone with Stephen Lang, guys. It's too little. You think? Yeah. What about Schwarzenegger?

He'd just be like a big Terminator again. Well, we'll get into some of that, right? Arnold, I love you. Definitely. Terminator call back in the movie for sure. Yeah. Yeah, we'll get to that. All right.

So here we go. Here we go all the people that they considered for Domino. Besides it, the role, before the role went to Zazi Beats. All right, here we go. Mary Elizabeth Winstead. Lizzie Kaplan. Carrie Washington. Cienna Miller.

Ruby Rose. No. McKinney Davis. Kelly Roarback. I don't even know. who that is. Eve Hewson, Phillips' favorite, Sophia Bettella.

It's pretty bad. Stephanie Sigmund, Sylvia Hooks, and Janelle Meney were all being considered and screen tested. So, yeah, they had a lot to choose from, I guess, for all these roles. I think they chose the right one.

What do you think, Nez? What are all your thoughts, man? I've been all right with Lizzie Kaplan. I love her, so. I love her, too. Yeah. You think she could pull off Domino? Uh, I think so, but, uh, the Zazi chick, man, she did a good job. Um, she didn't look like Domino, but, I mean, I thought she, I thought she was good.

I mean, I like what they did with her character and just putting her kind of up front and putting, uh, basically sacking, um, what's her nuts? Uh, the other one that wasn't the first one. What the hell was her name? Oh, the girl woman? No, the other mutant that was she with the short hair. She was hanging out of the genoconic teenage warhead. Teenage wasteland or whatever the hell? Okay.

Yeah, they. Negasonic teenage longest name ever. Stupidest zero name since the vanisher for sure. They did her dirty and just only put her in it for like a second. But I liked the Domino character. I liked her in the books. and I liked her in the movie. And the chick who did it.

I thought she did a really good job. So I was okay with it. All right. Well, give us your overall thoughts of the movie, man. Um, it wasn't as good as the first one. I thought the same thing. And how long was it?

Because it seemed really short. Yeah? It was about almost two hours. Okay, two hours. Maybe so much was going on it because it was so fast-paced. Yeah. Sure. I had a good time watching the whole movie. I mean, I enjoyed it. I liked it.

There was a few plot holes in it. I'm going to blame that on the team of writers. I don't like you guys. I don't like when they do that. The CGI was iffy at times because it just looked too cartoonish. And it took me out for like just seconds, but pulled me back in with the action and what was going on. Ryan Reynolds is Deadpool I don't think anyone else can do who can be that character

I'm glad they went back and did it right instead of that crap they did with the the first one with the Wolverine origins and we'll come back to that again cable Josh Brolin I was kind of like why is he being Thanos and now he's cable

I like cable more I think Josh Brolin is cable He did such an awesome job. He looked amazing in the part, but I just wish he was in it a little bit longer. He didn't seem like he had much screen time. And there was a couple scenes where I was kind of lost with what was going on. Like, wait what? But overall, I mean, the movie was awesome.

I mean, I liked it. The comedy was good. Yeah, I was kind of forced-fed to us a little bit at times. but I thought all the jokes worked good. My theater sucked. I laughed at everything. Oh, no. They weren't laughing?

They were chuckling, but not like me, and there was another guy behind me. We were, ha, ha, ha, ha, like, ready to fall out of our seats. And everyone else was kind of just he-he-he-he-he-higgling it out. You guys suck. But, yeah, overall, man, I thought the movie was awesome. The story was a little bit iffy. And the little kid that played, what was his, flaming fist or fiery fist? him i thought he was awesome i liked his character and i liked what he did and how edgy the whole movie

was yes it was rated r and all you parents they got mad for bringing your kid thinking did you not see the first one and can you not read it says rated r and uh they were even like i d and checking everyone for id before we went in the theater um i was like really i mean i know they've ided before but I don't know, just, I think just because of the first one was really more, more raunchy and everything. There was hints of that in this one. There isn't no strap-on anal sex scenes in this one. Spoiler, but, yeah, I mean, I thought the movie was awesome. It was well done.

There is some people, like one of my buddies, he hated it. He's more of a super-duper die-hard, Deadpool fan. He knows a lot more than me. a little bit from the books, not a lot, but I know enough to work. It was like, okay, I see what they were trying to do here, but there was a lot of little Easter eggs in this film, which I enjoyed.

So, yeah, overall, awesome film. All right, who's next? Okay. Yeah, I kind of agree with you on most of it. I liked, I did rewatch the original Deadpool, which was

my favorite movie of the year, a couple years back. So this one, does it compare to it? Maybe not quite, but it's close. It's really, and the only reason maybe it doesn't is just because it's kind of more of the same, which is not bad. It's just not new anymore. But yeah, the comedy was pretty on point.

I don't think it was quite as funny as the first one, but it was still pretty hilarious at times. I love Domino. I thought she kind of stole the show when she was on screen. I could kind of do without Colossus. I think I'm tired of him. But they have a cool dynamic. Right. The characters are great.

I love when they introduce the X-Force characters. We'll get into it in spoilers. But, you know, just from the trailer where you see them in the plane, man. Sure. That scene is incredible. I did not see that coming at all. It was a good movie. I was okay with the story.

I like the ending. I love Josh Brolin in literally everything that I've seen him in in the past few years, which is a lot of shit. And he's pretty amazing at all of it. So he might be my new favorite person.

Strong words. Definitely go see this movie. It is kick ass. Brian? It was okay. I wasn't. blown away. Yeah.

I like the first one better. I do agree Ryan Reynolds is Deadpool. This is the role he was born to play. Yeah. Zazi Beats, I think I agree. I think she stole it. I love her on Atlanta, so I knew she was going to be able to kill this. If she can get the action right, then I knew she was going to kill this role.

Josh Rowland, on the other hand, he wasn't bad ass enough for me. I just wanted more. from him and I didn't I didn't completely hate his performance I just I just wanted more badass moments from him we could have a cooler backstory or something but it would have added time in the movie

love the Easter eggs in it love the comedy a couple of a cameo show up that I thought was pretty hilarious and overall yeah it wasn't as good as the first one but I liked it enough yeah so kind of like um i mean you definitely enjoyed it though right you had fun watching it yeah i probably not as much as

the next person and that my theater was uh i i would say nes my theater was probably the opposite of yours because i had my i i could just look around and everybody was falling out of the seats left and right yeah hanging from chandeliers and shit might as well be but um i i wasn't I wasn't the biggest fan of the first one. I liked the first one, but I probably didn't like as much as everybody else. But I do love Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool. So, I mean, my theater, I think it was the fourth showing because it was like on every screen. The first showing was at seven and then every half hour there was another showing.

So I assumed all the super duper diehards were in. like maybe the seven and the 7th 30 and I got I got the leftovers. Yeah, I saw mine last night and I, you would have thought it was opening night. Yeah? Man, I went Friday during the day at like noon, and there were like three people in my theater. I'm not joking.

Oh, man. Wow. It's crazy. Man, that's insane. This movie theater never gets back down here. I can use my movie pass. whatever I want to. Yeah, wow, you lucky bastard.

I know. Shit. Oh, man. Well, I'll tell you what, my, yeah, my theater was packed, and it was like 10 in the morning, you know? It's like every, there was somebody in every single seat, so, you know, I'm thinking, I was thinking it was going to be a really big success. Do you know what it did opening weekend, Brian, or did you kind of take a little of the members at all? I know it did over 150 domestic. and over 300 worldwide.

Let me see. Pretty solid opening. Oh, not, I'm wrong. Not 150. 125 domestic, but over 300 million worldwide for opening weekend. Did it not Avengers Island number one spot? Yes, it did. Yeah.

As Avengers just hit $1.8 billion. Jesus Christ. That movie. 1.8. Wow. Tony Stark eats your heart out, huh? No. Didn't he get a piece of that one too?

Probably. Jesus, man. He's going to be the richest man on Earth. Right. That's why he's quitting. Yeah. Allegedly. Allegedly.

Disney, they'll throw a big check at him. He'll go, all right. All right. Look, it sounds like you guys all definitely enjoyed the movie at least, some more than others. I don't think it's going to be like necessarily a top. top five for anyone this year? Maybe you fill up or not this go around? Maybe. We'll see what all comes out. See how the year shakes out? Yeah, definitely not as good as Avengers.

All right. Well, I had a buddy of mine, listener of the show, Rod. He was really bitched about it on Facebook, man, like trash, garbage, piece of shit. Worst movie I've ever seen. I'm like, dude, you're being really harsh, man. What's the problem? And I couldn't figure out what it was. And finally, I talked to him today. And I'm like, Rod, dude, what do you have against the movie? He said, damn it, man. I tried to take my son with me to see it.

And it was just too filthy for him. You fucking idiot. Uh-oh, he's listening. All right, Rod, you fucking idiot. Come on, dude. So here's the thing. I get into the movie, and there's a bunch of fucking snot-nosed rug rats in there that their parents drag him in there, thinking they're going to see like the next, you know, Avengers, you know,

Infinity War II or something like that. And I'm thinking, damn, what the hell are all these kids doing? And if they start making a bunch of noise during the movie, I'm going to be really fucking pissed off. Or if somebody starts crying or something like that. So I swear to God, there were more trailers before this than anything I've seen in years. There were like 20 trailers. And finally, right before Deadpool starts, they show a trailer for the new Lakeith Stanfield movie that's coming out.

Sorry to bother you. You guys heard of this one? Yeah, that one looks pretty good. Dude, I can't wait for this movie. They showed the red band trailer for it, and I'm like, yes, all these parents with their little fucking kids need to be softened up. And popped in the jaw with a trailer just like this before the main feature. And I know they did that on purpose. Because they're basically saying, all right, here's the trailer we're going to show before the movie.

If you're offended now, get the fuck out. Yeah. Now you know what to expect. And now you know what to expect. As you hit the nail right on the head with the plot hole, talk about plot holes, because this thing was all over the place, man. But damn, did I have a good time? Any fucking fanboy, I think, with all the,

not just all the superhero movies that they make fun of, and not only the Marvel, but the DC universe as well, but with the way that they make fun of other movies as well and other bits of pop culture, I heard that there's like well over 100 Easter eggs in this movie. They're not even necessarily all Deadpool related. So I had a really fun time. A lot more enjoyable than I thought it was going to be.

Those are my thoughts. So you guys ready for scores? Yeah, let's do it. All right, Nez. Oh, damn it. I'd probably give it a seven. All right, not bad. Just, I mean, I think what took me out of it.

I mean, like I said, it was only for seconds, was the CGI. I'm like, you guys did really good with the first one. I mean, you couldn't throw. And that was what, a shoestring budget I hear? Mm-hmm. A lot less money. Why couldn't they threw in a little more and made the CGI look better? I mean, but overall, I mean, like plot holes and everything, like I've said.

But, yeah, I would go a seven. I mean, I still enjoyed it. I mean, I thought it was awesome, but it could have been better. Okay, fair enough. Yeah, good assessment, man. All right. Well, you know, this movie is right up my alley. I think it has a ton of rewatchability, and I'm sure I'll go back and watch it over and over again. Like, I have the original Deadpool.

I gave the original a 10. This one I'm going to give it a 9. I still think it was pretty kick-ass. Wow. Pretty fucking eye, man. Oh, yeah, dude. I mean, it's not quite as good as the original. I heard some people say that it was better.

But it's still pretty awesome. It was a fun movie. I had a blast watching it. Cool. I'm going to go seven, a soft low seven. Okay. I think it was mainly, I was so underwhelmed from cable. I just, I don't know.

Maybe he'll be badass in an X-Force movie, but right now I'm going to have to go. It is, I do need to rewatch it, though, because you just, Ryan Reynolds fires off so many little one-liners and little references that you kind of miss all of them. Yeah, they're quick. My rating might change, re-watching it, but right now it's a seven.

All right, well, first of all, my rating for Zazi Beats, is a solid 10 and yes gentlemen I will be asking my wife if I have the permission to add another hall pass

to the list It's official man she's beautiful I'm kind of digging what's her name Morena Baccarin or whatever? To me she's real milk toast

dude I I say how gorgeous she is and she is but oh no dude Zazi Beach she's got the She's got the fucking personality to go with the beauty, man.

You ever watch Atlanta? I can't spoil anything yet. But yeah, dude, she just had a swagger about her, man. Yeah, that was cool. I got to go back and watch Atlanta now. She's great on there. Yeah, the only episode I've seen of Atlanta is the one-off one that Lakeith Stanfield was in, where he goes into the weird Michael Jackson type dude's house.

You know what I'm talking about, Brian? Yeah. Yeah. Anybody not watching Atlanta, it's a great show. All right. That's the next thing on my list. I got to watch that one. Yep, same here. It's definitely available. So she's got me sold on this. As far as the movie, fuck, guys, I had a great time, man. I had a rollicking time. And I'm kind of like wishing that my crew and my theater had been a little bit more into it.

There were a lot of people in there, but I guess because it was kind of early in the morning, they weren't as loud as... I mean, I was getting to where I would laugh at some jokes and look around like, oh, shit, am I bothering anybody? You know? Because there's a lot of quietness, but... It's all the kids. Let's not fool ourselves.

It's not a masterpiece. You know, it's... To me, I thought it was pretty much just straight up comedy. But most of the comedy hit, with some of it repetitive, especially from the first movie, yes. But yeah, I'll give it a solid seven and a half. I had a really fun time.

So it sounds like four guys all recommend the movie. Two more than the other two, but everyone would at least recommend seeing it, right? Oh, yeah. Yeah, I see it. It's a must watch. All right, so, Nez, you know what time it is, man. This is a motherfucking spoiler alert. You've been fucking warned. This is a motherfucking spoiler alert.

You've been fucking warned. This is a motherfucking spoiler alert. You've been fucking warned. Yep. Oh, man. There's the spoiler time. Other than the... Then all the nonstop jokes,

because I mean, that's probably one of the main reasons I want to see it again because I was too busy laughing. Yeah, hard to catch everything. Miss some stuff that came afterwards. Uh, X-Force. I thought that was awesome. That was fucking hilarious. shortest

shortest roll roles ever yeah why why just seconds I was like I was all in like oh man

they're about to kick some ass and then then over that's crazy what yeah I was not expecting that I had no idea

Bill Scarsgard was in this when they showed his picture I was like is that just gonna be like an Easter egg and then the next thing

he's standing and talking and I was like oh either i must have missed him in the trailer or they maybe they never showed them i thought maybe they did when they're all standing at the at the airplane but before they jump out uh could you see terry cruz could you you can't hide him so you knew he was in it and the vanisher it was i thought it was awesome when you just couldn't see him but then when they show brad pit like super fast i was like unsure was i'm i know was it

Okay, I guess it was. I thought it was. Oh, man, but I was just pissed. I was all hyped and excited, and then they all die. That was like, wait. Except Peter, well, and then he died too. Right. What was the point of that?

I mean, just to be funny? I thought it was pretty hilarious. I thought the fact that he was there to begin with. Even though they showed, they kind of spoiled that part in the trailer. Yes, they did. Yeah, the trailer gave a lot of way. Even the very, very beginning. I mean, you knew

before he did his little backlash, a little backstory on how his girlfriend died. I mean, you knew it because I was like, why is he blowing himself up? And then it was all sad. And I was like, okay, so you kind of saw that coming. But I really did love the James Bond. Oh, yes.

I thought that was amazing and I just loved all the you have to see it again because all the stuff they kept saying all the writing that was there that was just hilarious I like the one about John Wicks dog yeah the director

I mean everything they threw into it man but I was just I probably would have given it a higher score if X-Force was in it longer I mean they could at least maybe gave them two minutes instead of what they they could

it's like you hype them up so much in the trailer and everyone was part of the end joke dude I mean that's the whole that's what makes the joke

yeah I don't I don't necessarily think the people that died is going to be the actual X-Force in the movie no I know they were not but plus he fixed the timeline

remember he might not have fixed it for them you think you fly into a fucking helicopter I was kind of excited to see Shatterstar too and not that didn't happen right did you guys catch Matt Damon's

cameo I had no idea that was him yeah I'm looking at it on I MDB and yeah I didn't know either that she was funny yeah I caught the Alan Tudic

K2So pirate Steve I caught him, but I didn't even know that was Matt Damon. Yeah, that was... That fucker's showing up in everything, isn't he? I know. Was it named Ragnarok? Yeah. And he had a little cameo in Unsaid.

Oh, well, he weren't... Oh, yeah. That's right. Man. He's an interstellar. Interstellar. Right. Matt Damon.

He's definitely... He's definitely becoming the one-off kid, huh? Yeah. How did you guys feel about the whole afterlife kind of dream-like sequences? I was not a big fan of that. Take it or leave it. Yeah, I was okay that they did it once. Yeah.

They probably shouldn't have gone back to it. But I understand why they did it. They had to bring you back into why all this is happening. I think they did that just for the you got to show that that Deadpool had that yeah emotional side of them not just this killer jokers that we see that uh likes to get it with a strap on I mean right I liked it I liked when they did it the first time and then the second time you were kind of like okay you're wasting time you could have showed something more badass than

in this minute of you showing me this again. So I didn't I didn't really care for it. I was hoping T.J. Miller's character would have been gotten a little more in this one. Because I liked him in the first one and he

again, he was just in it for who knows how long. But there was a scene that that I was kind of unsure because I thought I blinked or something because there was Deadpool talking that T.J. Miller's

character. Then the next scene, he's sitting there tied up and cables got him. I was like, well... Yeah, another plot hole, man. I was like, what happened? I mean... Don't think too hard. He had walked outside of the bar. I don't know if he was throwing trash away or smoking cigarette or something.

Got nabbed, huh? Yeah. It happened so fast. I was like, okay. But, yeah. I did like... I did like we got a proper juggernaut. That was cool. Not Vinny Jones as the Juggernaut, but we got a Ryan Reynolds playing the Juggernaut.

I didn't know that until I read about it. Yeah, he didn't know that either. CGI, and he voiced him. They just changed up the voice. I liked how he looked. I thought that was off. It was cool. I'm with Nez, too, on the C.

They went way overboard on the CGI in this movie. I think. I think it almost looked cartoonish. They did. They did drop a joke about it. It's time for the big CGI fight. Yeah, at least they told you it was coming, huh? Well, got to have it.

I'm hoping we see a little more of Juggernaut, actually. I thought that was a pretty cool reveal. Yeah, I'm sure we will, man. I think villains that just die. I mean, I did like the little quick camera we got of the X-Men. Oh, yeah. I was interested with McAvoy and all. those guys. I thought that was cool.

Yeah. I was unsure if that was just something that they cut from another film and threw in it, or are they already filming Dark Phoenix? I think they are, right? Yeah, I assume maybe that's where they got it. They were all

already in costume, hey, well, we need this for a second. I thought that was funny. I thought that was cool. And right before that scene, I was thinking, where is everybody? And then Deadpool goes on his rant. Like, yeah, where's all the other X-Men? Where here and do that do you. They'd give you that quick little teaser. I thought that was

awesome. That was probably one of my favorite parts of the film. I wonder if in the X-Men movie, they'll have a scene where they're like closing the door on him. That would be awesome. Maybe you don't see Deadpool in the background. You'd just see him close the door or whatever.

Yeah, or maybe you do see him in the background. That'd be even better. Yeah. Cruising around in Professor X's chair. Yes, yes. That shit was funny. Please do that. Did you guys like the mid credits. The what?

The mid credit scenes. I can't remember what happened. Did I miss that? My favorite one was the Deadpool when he killed himself. Oh, you're talking about the little fixing the timeline shit. Yeah, he went back

and killed Ryan Reynolds before he can make Green Lantern. Yeah, that was pretty funny, but I think I saw that one coming. Didn't they mention something about Green Lantern in the first movie? Yeah. Yeah, they mentioned it in this one before then, I think.

Just not to make the suit green. Yeah, they could have shot him for doing Blade 3. Shit. Do they have to get them permission to do all, mention all this stuff? I don't think so. Not if it's considered, what's the word

for it? Parity. Yeah, parity. Yeah, if it's parody, I don't think they, I think they might as, I know that Weird Al always ask for permission as a courtesy. But my understanding is if it's a parody, you're protected under the free speech rights. Yeah.

I don't think they would be mad. I mean, he talks about Green Lantern way more than anybody should talk about Green Lantern. Yeah. Agreed. Well, and usually when he mentions it, he doesn't use it like by name or whatever. Right. Unless it's, you know, Wolverine or whatever. Yeah.

That was a good scene too, huh? Yeah. I'm hoping we see some Deadpool Wolverine action at some point. Yeah, probably a different actor playing Wolverine, though, right? Didn't Jackman say he's done no matter what? Yeah. I don't know. They're trying, I don't know.

They're throwing money at him for Avengers. Yeah. He'll be back. Remains to be seen, right? They're going to throw that big check at him. He'll be back. Yeah. Well, he's like me, guys.

He ain't getting any younger. It's, me and him and Josh Brolin are all pretty much exactly the same age. So, you know, I don't know how long he's going to want to run around pulling those claws out like that, you know? Well, he's still in shape, man. All I got to do is CGI up, CGI up the wrinkles and they be good. Easier than taking a mustache off. There you go. Speaking of which, you guys saw the trailer for the new Mission Impossible?

No. I'm so there. Yeah. I think it looks great. I couldn't take my eyes off the mustache, though. I was in the theater and I wanted to turn around of the guy next to me or somebody and say, that is a fabulous mustache, isn't it? I'm looking at the mustache.

It doesn't look like something that he couldn't have shaved off and grew back. I know. Yeah, I thought he had. like a full beard or something. I thought maybe he had like, what do they call it Winston or whatever? I'm just like Opium sons of Antarctica.

Yeah. Oh, another trailer I got was Bohemian Rhapsody. I'm there for that one. I saw that too. That looks. Oh, yeah. I was iffy on the mallet guy as Freddie Mercury until the trailer. I mean, I thought it was awesome. And I, yeah,

I can't wait to see that. All right. Well, I know we probably could talk another hour on spoilers for this one, but we've actually still got an entire TV series to cover. Yep. That's where I bow out because I don't, I've stayed away from spoilers this long. I want to just enjoy it. Kelly being my favorite character, I love her, awesome chick when I met her.

and I think I just need to sit down and finish it. I mean, I've got so much on my plate other than with the new grandchild and work and everything. And all the other craziness that I watch, I just need to throw in the Blu-ray and finish it. And then the whole, so it's done with, right? There's no more new episodes? No, that's it. Yeah, that's it. How many episodes is the third season?

I think 10 again, right, Brian? Yep. All right. are they all still half hour or do they at least give them an hour? No, 30 minutes. All right. Yeah, I'll eventually get to it.

But hey guys, man, this is always awesome to come on. Again, we had an amazing time in Texas. Yeah, man. One night was a little too amazing for all of us. Right. Well, look, we'll all, hey, we'll all be back. We'll all be back Saturday. So let's talk, let's talk about it then.

Yeah, we will. And, uh, yeah, everyone. We'll have your mortal Star Wars enemy Patrick on the show, too. Oh, yeah. I love you, but, uh, the face off. Yeah, we'll see. Oh, he's going to sneak in some dicks about Star Wars. He always does.

All right. All right. He's got them ready. We're ready. We're ready too, right, Nez? Yep. Oh, I'm going Thursday night. Seven o'clock.

Yep. Gonna brush it right off my shoulder. Yep. So. All right, guys, man. I'll talk to you guys later on. All right, later, man. Take care, man.

That was good. Later. All right. You guys ready to jump in? The yellow Oldsmobile Delta 88 that Ash drives is the same make, model, and color used in most of the movies

directed by Sam Ramey. The original car actually belongs to Sam Ramey and was bought new by his father back in the day. This picks up 30 years after the events of the Evil Dead trilogy. For the first season, Universal Pictures did not allow stars to use footage or elements from Army of Darkness.

However, for the second and third seasons, they gave permission. And a final piece of kind of like weird, out-there trivia, a makeup test photo of Samara weaving was used as propaganda by a Twitter account called Conservative Nation, claiming her to be a bludgeoned Donald Trump supporter who was beaten by numerous liberals. Not only was this false, she wasn't even an American citizen, nor was the photo even taken in the United States. It wasn't until Bruce Campbell proved it to be false that they deleted the post. And they got numerous angry messages for both liberals and conservatives and decided to finally delete that account altogether. So definitely a weird bit of trivia.

Yeah, I've seen that picture. You know, yeah, it's 30 episodes here, but I think we're. We can probably blow through this pretty quickly. Anybody kind of burn in to go first? I just rewatch the first season. I actually, I just went through the whole series. Well, you need to go first then, man. Yeah, I'm going to just get right to it.

Bruce is the fucking man. I'm so glad they made this into a series. It was super fun. Great. I think this is the idea mix for practical effects and CGI. I think they did great. great with that. Yeah.

I loved all the callbacks to the movies. I love Kelly. I love her. I love, if you watch from season one, episode one, she's not the same character when the series is over. Oh, I know. Totally different. Oh, yeah.

Yeah, complete badass. Pablo, that's my boy right there. I love Pablo. He's probably one of the loyalest characters you've ever seen on a TV series. Yeah. He is sticking with his hafay. at the beginning I was a little bit iffy about him

but like after maybe two or three episodes I was like man this guy's pretty cool I like him and Lucy Lawless I don't know I kind of have a thing for Lucy Lawless and I didn't before when she was like Zena and all that but as she's older

she looks pretty good pretty badass in the show yeah and we get cameos every now and then and they weren't scared to just kill people off. That's for sure. And, you know, we'll get into some specifics of the episodes later after you guys give your opinions. But a great fucking show.

Yeah, man. I agree with everything you just said, dude. It was so awesome. Very, you know, probably more Army of Darkness than Evil Dead, too. but I had a lot of comedy comedy horror big time and again right up my alley

you throw some comedy in the mix and I'm loving it I don't know if I liked it as much watching it the second time I had a hard time paying attention maybe because I already knew what was going on maybe just because I had a bunch of other shit going on in the background

but the first time I watched it all the way through I loved every second of it and I'm really disappointed that they canceled it but it was fun man it was just really fun to watch not one for the kids though yeah they seem they seem to have big plans for uh not only a season four but also a movie so i mean i guess we'll never know oh and he said he's not doing the role again huh

no he's retired he said he's retired he's done yeah i tend to believe him from making movies period? Yeah. Oh, wow. So, retired, retired, okay. Oh, retired altogether? No, no, no, no, no, no, from the roll of Ash. Okay.

He's hanging it up with that character. And for some reason, he said the, I don't know if you ever seen the Bubba Hope Top movie. Oh, hell yeah. Or he was, yeah, he's, I guess they were going to do a sequel. I guess he's not doing that either. He's, I don't know. He kind of, yeah, he kind of, yeah, he, kind of sound, I don't know, he kind of sounded like

maybe he might be done acting, I don't know, just kind of Hmm. I don't know, he is kind of getting up there, so. Yeah, and I imagine he made a lot of money off of this one, so he can probably sort of pick and choose his roles from now on. Yeah, I would be, I'd be shocked to see him leave

acting altogether, you know? I mean, he's, he's like constantly working. He does a lot of, uh, what was the, what was the, uh, hour long TV show that he was on for a really long time. It was like they had to hide the spies or something like that. Burn notice. Yeah, he was

in that for a long time, right? Yeah. He's been in a thousand of those sitcoms, man. I remember him in Hercules. He was great. And, you know, this, yeah, he plays about the same character and everything

he does, but it's a pretty awesome character. Absolutely. And plus he always, He always cameos and anything Sam Ramee does. Yeah. Makes sense. I'm not mad at that. Not at all.

But yeah, definitely, if you like horror comedy at all, this is probably one of the holy grails of it. It was a great, great TV show. I think I like it better than Army of Darkness. Yeah, that's saying a lot. Yeah. Yeah, it was a good show, guys. I think it was a good three-season run. I think three seasons was exactly right.

As a matter of fact, we'll get into it in more detail, but I'm really thinking by the third season, in my opinion, you know, don't kill me here. So I have to cut back as a deadite. But I think they started kind of repeating stuff a little bit. Yeah, yeah. Maybe kind of running out ideas. I will say this.

Like I said, I just rewatched the first season. And it definitely plays back. If you can watch it one episode after the other, just like a really long movie. Yeah. I think that's one thing that might have heard it. I think it might have done better on like a Netflix platform where you could have just gone in and watched, you know, all four and a half hours or whatever all at one time, like a movie. It gets a little bit better equipped for that. But, yeah, I mean, from the very beginning where, you know, Ash is, you know, Ash is.

You see him getting ready and you think, oh, shit, he's about to put on the chainsaw and get ready for some battle. But no, he's putting on the girdle and making sure that condoms are in his pocket and getting ready for a different type of battle in the local dive bar. And Ash is still Ash, for sure, and still working at the shitty fucking, what was it like an electronic store or 99 cent store or something like that? Yeah, it was like a convenient store kind of. thing I think. It wasn't S-Mart. S-Mart, yeah. It was S-mart?

Okay, that's right. But I will tell you this. One thing I noticed, because I just seen season three and then rewatch one, they did really, really well with continuity, because they definitely kept a lot of the same themes. I didn't see any, you know, jump in the shark moments or anything like that where they kind of, like, forgot what the original story was and changed it. because like in the very first episode of the first season,

they talk about testing the Medal of Man, and that's literally what they talk about in the finale of the last season. So it comes around full circle. I think more than three seasons would have hurt this show, guys, in the long run. I really do. I think this is going to be a cult classic, and I think they did exactly right by keeping it at three. I don't know.

That ending, I kind of wanted to see what it was going to be. of it, man. That's why they did that. I don't disagree with you there. Sidekick. Oh, yeah. That would have been cool. What are they going to do with his hand in the future? All right, so this

third season hasn't been out a year, but we're going to just go ahead and say now we're talking spoilers and everything. Yeah. Yep. All right, cool. So what did you guys think about the ending? Go ahead. I was just saying, I thought it was really cool.

It was definitely different, not exactly what I expected. Not at all. And it definitely leaves it open-ended, and I do kind of wish that I had seen that, but I can see where it might be better in my mind than it would be on TV. So I'm not mad at him. I'm not super mad at him for canceling it, but I do want more. I thought it was fine. I think it was definitely the weakest finale out of the three seasons.

As much as in the show, I didn't like her coming back as the main villain. I thought she would have moved on from that. But, yeah. And the one thing I didn't think I would like, but I ended up liking, I didn't think I would like his daughter, but she grew on me by the end of the season. Yeah. Because she started picking up his, not picking up his humor,

but once they got comfortable with each other, you found out they were more alike than they thought. And I liked that by the end. Yeah, yeah, but you're right. When they introduced her, I was like, oh, what are they doing here? I thought that was the jump to shark moment, but they didn't do it.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty good. Didn't jump it, though. did it? No, not quite. They just ramped up. So what did you guys think about? I'm sorry, go ahead, Brian. I was just going to say, the one thing I didn't like about the series is

as much as I love the characters, I think they were kind of scared to leave him dead. Was Pablo and Kelly? Yeah. Because when we first, when they first killed Pablo, it was a shocker. And even when you thought they brought him back,

he originally didn't come back at the first time because it was the character I believe his name was Ball. He was the main villain. Oh yeah. And so when they brought him back is when Kelly dies in season three, it wasn't as much of a shocker

because I just kind of got this feeling like they'll probably find some way to bring her back and they ended up doing that and didn't really, didn't really like that. Because things usually go all right for Ash, no matter how dummy is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, they, yeah, they definitely weren't afraid to kill other characters off, right?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, I was kind of surprised when they killed off in the first season, Amanda, the officer. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, a lot of people were. I thought for sure she was going to be like a regular or something, but they're toward the end. They killed her. I knew all the hikers were toast. You know, there wasn't too much doubt about that.

That handwriting was all over the wall. Yeah. Did they kill off Ted Ramey's character, or did he just kind of slumber off at his sunset? Yeah. He did, okay. And they killed his dad, Lee Majors, nobody saw that coming, right? Although he did come back as a Jedi ghost from time to time. Yeah, which was kind of cool, too.

What were your favorite episodes as far as, like, the special effects and the gore? I got to go with the, uh, the, the, the, the, the, the, um, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, and fight in the morgue i thought was hilarious oh man that was so great i was dying laughing at that one the whole time the the sperm bank was pretty fun oh yeah that was pretty bad me too and they also did really well on the creature effects like i thought in the third season what was the rift monster where the guy was like merging with everybody to make one monster. I thought that was really cool looking.

Yeah. I liked the thing in the first season. I thought that was cool. I was just about to say there. Like the demon that you couldn't quite tell if it was moving or if it was like I don't know how they did that effect. That was a really well done special thing.

His mouth stayed still, but the rest of him was all glitchy and moving around. It was creepy. Very creepy looking. What did you guys think about? Speaking of the, the trailer we saw, what did you think about

the little ashy, slashy puppet? You know what? I got one coming in the mail. Oh, yeah? I love the puppet. Right. It was pretty cool, man. Anything that they do,

it's just, it's silly and stupid, but it works. It's so funny. And a little scary at the same time. You know what I mean? It's,

the comedy on this show is on. I like that he was a puppet, but he had a, I like that he was a puppet. but he had a working chainsaw. Yeah. Yeah, that's awesome, dude. A little puppet chainsaw that's going to kill people.

All right. Definitely. Gory and beautiful, and I love the way that they filmed it, too. Absolutely. Yeah, we're all recommending it big time. You all ready for scores so we don't go too far over our usual time? Yep. Yeah.

I don't give too many of these, but I'm going to have to give a 10. I love this show. Holy shit. it's perfect then I think yeah you know I'm gonna have to give it a 10 too man it's one of my favorite shows that I've watched in a long time and I think you're right it's definitely gonna be a cult classic holy shit yeah I'm gonna it down yeah I'm going I'm going eight strong eight probably would have been higher than that if the if the third season had grabbed me a little bit you know better than it did but uh it's a good score you know I'm real

I'm real happy with it. I loved it. And like I said, if you get a chance to watch it back to back, like binge watch it, that's the way to go. I really want to take a day or a weekend and do all of the evil deads and in this.

I'd love to do that. Yeah. That would be awesome. That would just about take a weekend. Would you let your kids watch it? No. No. Not going that far, huh?

A little too. rapey. Ah, yeah, that's true. Yeah. All right, well, so it's unanimous that it's, not the same score, but it's unanimous

that we all highly, highly, highly recommend this for anybody who hasn't. I know the first two seasons are on Netflix, so I'm sure the third will be eventually. But hats off to Bruce Campbell

for making it happen again, right? Yeah. Rest in peace, edge. Yeah. And as always, we want to thank you guys for listening to another episode of The Horror Returns. We'd love to hear your feedback and ideas. Reach out to us at thehorror returns at gmail.com. Look for us on iTunes, Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Next week, it's the much anticipated solo, as well as something I started watching today that Brian I just might fucking reach through the Skype lines and throttle you for picking this one at least per the first 10 minutes of it but I I'm gonna finish

it. 1984's ice pirates may end up really good, who knows? What the fuck is ice pirates? Yeah, what caused you to fucking pick the ice pirates, Brian? I don't know. It's something that popped

it. I know it was like a science fiction movie with pirates that I seen a long time ago when I was a kid. So it was like the first thing that popped in my head. That's an unfortunate name. It's way too close to ass pirates. We may have a few jokes before it's all over. Oh, and it's the Star Wars Showdown, our special guests, the ultimate Last Jedi hater, Patrick Lear,

and the ultimate Last Jedi lover, Kevin Nez, who will reign victorious? or will we all just get along? We'll find out. We're also going to have a Texas Frightmare bonus episode, which I'm sure since we're all going to be together, we'll try to do that as well. So that should be around the corner as well.

So until the horror returns again, good night.
