I'm Chris Owen, and you are listening to The Horror Returns.
Greetings, victims.
For those of you delight and dread, who fantasize about fear,
who glorify, go, welcome.
You have found a place where 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.
One and all to the horror returns.
I'm Lance, and with me as always are my co-host, Brian and Phillip.
How's it going, guys?
It is going good.
almost as always since I missed last week
sorry guys
I've got a whole lot of shit going on in my life
I still
I still would like to hear your thoughts on Slender Man
I literally
fell asleep in the movie theater twice
I mean I went pretty late
no I didn't even go very late
I don't know it was just that crickets in the background
and nothing really happening thing
It was a very...
It was really relaxing.
Yeah, they set an atmosphere that was, like, perfect to take a nap to.
Yeah.
I mean, there were literally crickets in the background of the entire movie.
Hmm.
I wonder if that was done by design.
I'm sure it was.
Hmm.
It just probably didn't really have the effect they were looking for.
Right.
Yeah.
And I think you said a...
You sent in a score of one.
Yeah.
So Slender Man got a combined score of three.
Oh, well, that didn't surprise me.
All together.
What did, what?
Oh, Jocelyn?
Jocelyn didn't even see it.
I was going to say you picked a good week to miss with a movie,
movie-wise, but you picked a bad week to miss because Jocelyn was an awesome guest.
Thanks so much for being on the show with us.
Yeah, and I really wanted to talk about Slynderman with her.
I was upset about that.
Well, she will be back,
because we got a little conversation going.
We are going to do a horror and video games episode
in the near future with her and Jack Falvey
and possibly Jim Cupca.
So stay tuned for that.
That ought to be fun.
Awesome.
That'll be awesome.
All right.
Cool of the week.
Well, I'll go because mine is a little uneventful.
Oh, no.
Part of the reason that I missed the last week
show is because I got a hundred million things going on right now between work and I'm the
coach of my son's baseball team so that's new and exciting even though I had no intention of being
the coach. I got ball and told. That's how it works. Sounds like fun now. Yeah well yeah but people
are texting me like constantly parents have a lot of questions. Yeah that my son grew up playing
Pop Warner football and they was
always trying to get me to
be on the coaching stuff and I was like, no,
can't do it. I listen to what the
parents say on the sidelines.
No, I can't do it.
Yeah, I know, man. I'm going to be
under some scrutiny. I'm pretty sure they were talking
shit about me today because
that's my cool of the week. We had our
first game.
After one practice, it's machine pitch
and half, probably
75% of these kids haven't
actually seen the machine yet until we got up there to play the game. And I really thought we
were going to fall apart, which we totally did at some point. You know, like a kid in the outfield
picks up the ball and he's like trying to run it back in and his hat falls off.
Oh, no. Everybody's screaming at him to throw the ball, throw the ball. And he's like, oh, wait,
I'm going to go get my hat and picks it up. And he still is kind of just wandering towards the
infield like that John Travolta mean where he's like what am I doing what's going on
but uh after a couple of those moments we uh we actually tied up the game and uh my my son
faced his fear of of being the catcher because he was literally the only one that we had
that could do it so nice okay he's he went in crying but he came out pretty happy
nice let that be a lesson to you make your kids do shit
just because they don't want to do them and they're scared of them,
that means shit.
Time to be brave.
Yeah, that's the only way to accomplish it, man,
is face your fears head on, right?
There you go.
You've got to teach them something.
We do it every week here.
In my cool of a week with a life lesson.
You are welcome.
Awesome.
Yeah, well, I had a pretty good week, guys.
Of course, you know, we haven't recorded since last Tuesday,
so it's been a little bit over a week.
but um um
oh maybe that's why it seems so fucking long i was like man i hadn't talked to you
yeah it's been a while for sure man um
but yeah probably got a probably got a couple of cool of the weeks this time
you know usually usually try to stick with just one and then you know like maybe a
maybe a not so cool or whatever but uh i got a chance to see a movie last night
brian that i think i think you've seen it before i don't know if you have phil uh low life
Oh, yeah.
Oh, I haven't actually watched it.
Yeah, you weren't as impressed with it.
Is that correct, Brian?
Yeah, I think I need to give it one more try.
Everybody I talk to loves the movie, so...
That's the guy with the swastika on his face and the, like, the Luchador dude.
Yeah.
Yeah, oh, man, yeah, I still want to watch it.
You know, you know what?
This is a movie that I actually watched with AJ,
because you guys know she hates horror movies.
She fucking loved it too.
I mean, the movie hits a lot of notes.
There's actually a lot of, I almost teared up at one scene at the end.
There's a lot of emotion in it.
And I mean, is it out there and is it fucking over the top, of course, you know,
and crazy characters and just, you know, shit that would never really happen?
Like, for example, they've got a guy that works with ICE.
He has ICE basically arrest the illegal aliens and then he harvest their organs.
that's not much of a spoiler because that happens like in the first 10 minutes
but that just gives you an idea of what you're getting into here
but no I really enjoyed it
I thought it was I thought it was a super fun movie I'm ready to watch it again
now the version you watched Brian
when the Luchador was speaking in Spanish
did they have subtitles on the screen or not
no yeah I didn't have subtitles either and my Spanish is not that great
my Spanish is worse
Yeah, my wife's, my wife's is really good, but I was pretty much getting most of it.
I noticed he spoke pretty slowly.
And I mean, you could tell from what he was emoting sort of what he was getting at.
And like when he was at that kinsignera and he pulled that deal where he kind of blacked out and woke up.
And that dude's head was like caved in with the can of propane.
Do you remember that?
Yeah.
It's a good movie.
I really enjoyed it.
Anything I can watch with my wife
and she actually enjoys it too,
that's a thumbs up.
But my real cool of the week,
and this is one that I am fucking glad
I did not try to watch with her
because she would have fucking hated this movie.
Puppet Master, the Last Reich!
I've also seen this too.
Oh, it's so awesome, dude.
What great kills, man.
I mean, it starts early
and it just never lets up.
It's like every, the basic premise is that it's 30 years after the original two-line murders,
which makes sense because the first puppet master was like 30 years ago.
And all these people are meeting at a hotel.
It kind of reminded me of Texas Frightmare because it was a hotel near the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport.
And I noticed like when somebody got, like, was, got thrown into a dumpster at one scene.
On the dumpster, it said property of DFW or something like that.
So I think they might have actually even filmed it in that air.
but it was just like glorious glorious kill kills i mean it was just like
all the most incredibly amazing unique ways you can think for a puppet to kill you they did it
and it was like all the puppets from all the different puppet master movies and a few new ones
that i don't think i've ever seen before in a oh yeah there was uh quite a few new ones
what about the baby hitler man that was that one was weird and what
What about the little troll guy that ended up inside the pregnant woman?
Well, that is creative.
Yeah, there was some creativity with the puppets and the kills in this one.
Yeah, this was a great movie, man.
This was my second favorite puppet master movie after the original.
And I think upon further viewings, it might end up being my favorite.
But just real quick, the plot, all these people get together.
It's 30 years after, it's the anniversary.
they've collected these different two-line puppets,
and they're all getting together for a big auction,
and they're valued in the thousands of dollars and stuff like that,
and then the puppets that they plan to auction off end up turning on them
and start methodically killing them off.
And it's just, I don't want to give too much away.
It's endless fun.
Puppet Master, littlest right, can't recommend it enough.
Definitely got me fighting on that one.
I'm going to have to go check it out.
All right.
my time? Yep.
All right.
I've been mentioning it for weeks.
Sharp objects.
I held in there.
This Sunday is going to be the
season finale, and it looks
like it's going to wrap everything
up really nicely. I'm kind of
glad I held in there.
Yeah, Castle Rock,
still good, still hanging in there.
I'm bored with it, man. I'm two episodes in,
and I'm fucking bored out of my mind.
You only watch the first two?
First two so far?
I think the turnaround that a lot of people got,
because I heard some people say the same thing,
was episode four.
Okay, cool.
I'll let me stick to four then.
Yeah, so from what I understand it,
from what I've seen, if you're, after four,
you're still bored, then I wouldn't blame you if you dropped it,
but I'm still in it.
All right.
Got to the theater a couple other times
then for the movie we're talking about.
saw Mile 22 with Mark Wahlberg.
Yeah, how was that?
I really liked it.
It was an action spy espionage movie from start to finish.
Cool.
This movie had Rhonda Rousey, Lauren Cohen, who plays Maggie from The Walking Dead.
Uh-huh.
Yeah.
Who has a scene in it where she's such a dirty mouth young lady.
I mean, the words coming out of her mouth.
I was loving it.
No shit.
Yeah.
Yeah, this was directed by Peter Bird, right?
Yes.
Did you know, I learned something interesting about him lately.
Did you know that he owns his own fitness gym and he does like a CrossFit program and everything?
No.
Yeah.
No, Peter Berg.
The director.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
Oh, wow.
That's rare.
You rarely see that with a writer or director.
I thought that was pretty cool.
Yeah, great.
She was good.
I mean, I like her in the movies when she's a supporting role.
Yeah.
I don't know if I would ever see her, you know, being the main star of a movie.
But, you know, she's one of the, like, Mark Wahlberg has a team of, you know, basically
there people that come in do, that, you know, gets the job done that if they get
caught, the government's just basically going to say
we don't know who they are or...
Oh, fuck. I can't wait to
see this movie, man. And it
also stars, I'm not even going to butcher his name.
Have you guys seen the Raid movies?
Yes. That's the first one I've seen.
Yeah, he is the main
guy in those movies.
Okay. And he kicks a lot of
fucking ass in this movie
as he should. Mark Wahlberg was
kind of, you know, eh.
Really? Yeah, there was at times when he was talking, and the way he was talking, it took me back to the happening, the way his voice sounded.
And it was really weird.
Were it just like a little high-pitched thing or something?
Yeah, he did something like that, and I was like, what the fuck is happening right now?
But I do recommend it.
Another movie I caught in the theater, it was a one-night, one-showing thing.
We reviewed the trailer, and it was Blood Fest.
Bloods fast?
Yes.
Oh yeah.
It was the...
Go ahead.
That's the one with a bunch of different movies inside of it, right?
Yeah, it's basically these kids go to like a horror festival or convention or something.
Mm-hmm.
And basically shit just goes off the rails and they basically have to survive using their horror knowledge.
Oh, sounds fun.
Like basically, you know, one guy.
the virgin so
oh that one if he has sex
then he's gonna die
isn't uh isn't chuck in this movie
yes
as himself oh right that
okay um it was it was it was
it was okay um it's it's
it's a horror comedy
um I laughed a couple times
um there was some cool little nods to different
you know horror movies and stuff
um
but it
I guess I would say it was nothing really fantastic that just blew me away.
It's fine.
It's watchable.
Okay.
Let me run.
I got a long list of stuff.
Like I said, I was just running.
I saw skyscraper with the rock.
I've heard really bad things, man.
It is.
It's the rock in a diehard movie, basically.
It's some really good things too, you know?
It's like some people either love it or hate it.
He does some stuff with duct tape.
That is pretty fucking amazing.
That I didn't know duct tape
stuff like that.
Okay.
And he has a quote in the movie.
If you can't fix it with duct tape,
you're not using enough.
That's cool.
I like that.
I saw Patient Zero.
This has Natalie Dormer,
Stanley Tucci.
One guy, Matt Smith,
Dr. Who?
Different take on an
outbreak movie.
I thought it was cool.
Don't want to give too much away.
Most of these movies I'm going to talk about are new,
so I'm not going to spoil anything.
It's kind of a zombie thing, right?
Yeah, I'll give that away.
It's a rabies.
It's like some kind of new rabies or something,
super rabies or what?
I don't know.
I don't know the science of the...
But I mean, just from the trailer, I think I remember watching it,
and it looked very zombie disc.
like a different take on a zombie kind of movie.
Yeah, and it did end in a way that I would kind of like to see another movie,
but I don't know if there will be.
Let's see.
I saw Arizona with Danny McBride.
Oh, you've seen it already.
Oh, man, that's our trailer.
You asshole!
I didn't even know it was that.
Yeah, you guys still want to talk about the trailer?
You just want me to give my little review.
Yeah, go for it.
I'm looking forward to it from the trailer.
Yeah.
If you like Danny McBride, then you'll like this movie.
It's a dark comedy.
Enough said.
Yeah, so that's all I'm going to say.
I really liked him in it.
I really enjoyed the movie.
So definitely what to watch then.
Is it just out there in the stratosphere somewhere?
I mean, if you want to rent it, you can, but if you want to search for it,
You can also do that.
Maybe like iTunes or something like that?
Yeah.
Okay.
But it is.
But if you want to sell those seas, it is out there.
Ar.
And let's see.
I got two more real quick.
Summer of 84.
Checked it out.
Very stranger things feel to it.
Yeah.
According to Pemker, too much of a stranger things feel.
Yeah, I wasn't really impressed.
I think the thing that really
didn't do it for me,
it was almost two hours.
And it just kind of felt like it was dragging.
I think if this was like maybe a short
or if it was going to be a feature like movie,
keep it under an hour and a half.
Like, you know, hour 15, hour 20.
I think it would have been better.
But it needed like a good 30 minutes cut from it.
But I guess if you're in,
it's totally.
80s, like from the music, everything.
Mm-hmm.
So I...
Things rip off, or are they at least doing their own thing?
It's just said in the 80s.
It's the typical, like, there's four kids.
Of course, there's one smart kid, and there's the fat kid, and then there's the one
kid that's, like, the badass troublemaker.
And then, you know, you got the one main kid who's like, oh, we need to investigate this.
We need to figure out what's going on.
You know, it's the typical 80s tropes going on.
Sounds like a rip off.
Sounds like a rip off to me.
Yeah.
I can't complain about it, though.
Those are fun.
Stand by me.
And I do have one not so cool.
And Lance, this was a movie we had talked about putting on the schedule.
Yeah.
And that was down a dark hallway.
You remember we were talking about doing...
Yeah, it's not that...
Not that good?
No.
I didn't know what the fuck was happening in this movie.
Umma Thurman has some kind of German accent.
Hmm.
We were going to pair it with the...
I'm not going to say what the movie is about,
we were going to pair it with the craft.
Okay.
I remember that.
We were way off with that one.
Oh, good thing we didn't.
We still need to do that retrospective for Clause, though.
Yeah, I'm almost done with the third season.
What is it?
Second third season.
Which one is it?
Just two.
Just two now.
Oh, okay.
Second season.
Yeah, I'm almost done.
And, yep, that's it.
All right.
That's a lot of cool of the week and a little bit of uncool.
like a lot more good than bad
right Phil?
Oh yeah
which is kind of awesome
and then your puppet master
Third Reich
oh dude you've got to fucking watch that tonight
dude after we record you're gonna love it
I'm ready to watch it
it kind of makes me
want to go into that rabbit hole
of puppet master movies
you know what
like 40 of them
well here's the good news
it's almost like a reimagining
because the two line character
is I think he has a little bit different
origin in this one.
But my favorite part of the whole movie
was the very last scene because once
it flashed off it said to be continued.
Oh yeah.
So keep hope alive.
I don't know that's a spoiler or not.
If you bitch about that, you're bitching to be bitching.
Yes, that's right, man. So that's cool of the week.
And now
it's time for horror headlines. Brought to you by the
famous Brian, the Barry
Wine of Alaska. Take it away.
Lance,
you'll be interested in this one.
Patrick Stewart returning
all new Star Trek series for CBS
All Access. Very, very interested,
man. Very interested. Do you have any details?
This will take
place after Next Generation.
Okay. And
they said characters from Deep Space
9 in Voyager may possibly show up
on this show. Oh, wow.
Dude. And
He should be flamboyant gay Patrick Stewart.
Oh, no.
It should be a comedy.
How great would that be?
He can't do that if he's if he's Captain Picard?
Come on, dude.
That would hilarious.
Fucking blow away an entire history of everything he is and stands for, dude.
He's got to.
Maybe this is alternate universe.
No, I'm going to put it to this way.
good doctor. If he hasn't banged her
at least once or twice since the end
of next generation, I'm going to be
fucking pissed. Well, yeah.
They said
this series will
come out sometime before
2020.
Okay. Oh, wow.
Yeah. That's a hell of the time frame.
And
yeah. And a little bit more
Star Trek TV
news. They are working on
three other series
spinoffs.
One is said to be
based on a con.
Oh,
is this going to be based on the
Terrain in Hell book series
that was like actually
back in the day when they
like when they first sent him
to that planet, when they
forced him to go over there and live and start a new colony?
I didn't see nothing about that,
but what you just said intrigued me more
because I think they're going off of the Rath of Khan.
Oh, man.
But I would love to get an origin on his character.
Yeah, younger.
Yeah, definitely.
Younger than Rath of Khan before that.
That would be awesome.
It's a series?
Yes.
I believe this is all going to be on CBS,
all access,
all these series they're working on.
Yeah, that's brilliant, man.
I mean, there's no better time ever to be a Trekkie, huh?
Yeah, CBS All Access
stepping up their game
because, you know, we got that Jordan Peel
Twilight Zone
reboot coming.
So, yeah,
they might be in the streaming game
big time if a lot of these shows
are as good as they sound, so.
Yeah, well, fuck regular CBS, dude.
There's not a show on any network TV
that I can handle.
They're all so terrible now.
We get so many better options.
I don't even know what's on CBS.
they just run NCIS
like on a constant loop
yeah
NCIS Baltimore
NCIS New York NCIS
Carthage Texas
yeah I got you
and of course
another week
another movie franchise
gets turned into a series
this time Jason Bourne
they were going to make a series
based in the Jason Bourne
universe
and the series is going to be called threadstone.
What?
Okay.
Yeah.
Threadstone?
Yeah, I'm not too, I've seen the movies,
but I'm not deep into the, I guess, mythos and the books.
Yeah, I'll pass.
Yep.
That'd be cool.
Yeah, I mean, of course, I'll check it out,
but I don't know.
Like I said, I'm not big into the Jason Bourne.
Mm-hmm.
Uh, let's see, uh, showtime and, uh, director Scott Derrickson are working on a new series.
Uh, people don't know who Scott Derrickson is.
He directed Sinister, the exorcism of Emily Rose and Dr. Strange.
Oh, okay.
There, yep, it's going to be a new hour-long horror series called Kill Creek.
And it's based on the novel by Scott Thomas, who will also write the adaption and executive produce.
Got my attention.
Okay
And our last little bit of news
Mostly TV, not a lot of movie news
Legendary Pictures now has the rights to
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
And of course
TV series coming
Ah Jesus
TV series
Yep
It'll be based on like a new different person that they eat every time
See and you can base a whole episode
around their personalities and their personal chase,
although it would get old.
Yeah, I have no idea.
This is starting to be a franchise
that I wish they would just leave alone.
No.
Yeah.
Came out so great in the beginning,
and it's just kind of gone downhill.
I don't know.
It's just, I don't know if it's gone downhill
necessarily so much as there's just too much out there, you know?
It takes away from the mystery a little bit, I think.
when you, I don't know, they go back and they try to explain too much.
They go with all these stupid origin stories and this, that, and the other,
and why not just leave the story the story, you know?
Yeah, that's part of why it was scary because you didn't know who they were.
They could be anybody, and it looked real.
And, of course, with the new TV series,
there's going to be new movies in the works, too.
Okay.
So apparently they're going to be, we're probably going to get another retelling of the same thing over, all over again.
All over again.
Pretty much sure.
Yep.
And we'll be there.
That's the sad part.
We will be there.
Yes, we will.
And I'll be excited about it.
I'm still going to bitch about it.
And that is the news.
All right.
That's a lot of news, man.
So guess that means it's time, Philip.
I'm going to the trailer park?
Yeah, I think it's time.
We take a little trip down to the trailer park.
And I need me some meth.
The first trailer is a movie that I've already seen,
but I would love to hear your guys' thoughts on it,
is Arizona starring Danny McRide,
Elizabeth Gillis, and Caitlin Olson.
I'm country.
I'm in.
Directed by Jonathan Watson.
What is your guy's thoughts?
Yeah.
I agree, dude.
Danny McBride can really do no wrong for me.
I love him in everything that he's in.
Even though he plays the same stupid Danny McBride character,
I love that character.
I might watch it tonight.
You know what?
I thought about us doing a bonus episode,
because the first movie that popped in my head was Raising Arizona.
When I think of Arizona.
And they're both dark comedies.
Right.
That's cool, man.
I haven't seen that in forever, dude.
I love that movie.
Deserves a rewatch, too.
Is it hilarious?
Raising Arizona?
No, this one.
Yeah, I like Danny McBride's hilarious and everything I see him.
I'm just, I'm a fan of his.
I just like even the moment in the preview where he's got the mask over his head
and he's like showing the chick.
And he's like, oh yeah, and that's me.
And then she looks at him and he's still got the mask over his head.
And he doesn't even say anything.
Just the dumbass look on his eyes that you can see through those stupid eye holes.
He's like, oh, shit, that was a bad idea.
That's amazing.
That is amazing.
I'm excited.
So if anybody wants to check it out,
Of course, like I said earlier, it is available now.
So check it out.
Our next trailer we're going to review is Killer Kate.
This one stars Alexandra Feld, Danielle Burgess, and this is directed by Elliot Feld.
So I don't know if they're married or related, but what did you guys think of Killer Kate?
More of a teaser.
I need to see more, but I mean, it could be fascinating.
You know, I just, I'm not, I'm not sure what to make of it.
I want more.
I don't think I got enough in this minute and a half long trailer.
Yeah, they definitely don't tell you what the movie's about at all.
But it looks interesting.
And this chick is covered in blood through the whole preview.
I assume is Killer Kate.
And I would like to know why, but it sounds like she's pretty kick-ass.
People are fucking with her and they went too far.
That would be a swerve if she's not Kate.
I know, right?
Killer Tate is the mastermind, the puppeteer, if you will.
This movie.
This movie is currently making the festival rounds,
but it will be available, I believe.
I don't know if it's going to be VOD or full release.
I think probably limited.
October 26.
Okay.
Probably add that to my third.
31 days of horror
for October.
Yeah.
Let's see.
Yeah. I'm sure
it's making a lot of noise out there.
I've been hearing about it, so
I don't think it'll be hard
to find when it's released.
Let's see.
Next one is going to be A24's new movie
Slice
starring Chance the rapper,
Zazi Beats.
Hannibal Burris, Chris Parnell, Paul Shear, Joe Kiri, and
Weilin Noel. I hope I said that name
right, which he is the star of the first Purge movie, who
me and Kevin agree he should be cast as the new blade.
Huh. I got to go back and watch that preview again.
Yeah. This is directed by Austin Vesley.
What did you guys think of Slice?
I'm very original
I don't think I've ever seen a pizza place as a doorway to hell before
definitely got my current hall pass Zazi Beetz is in it
oh yeah I knew you would love this one
and I mean what has A24 put out lately that's been bad
usually they're more artsy and subtle on everything
yes yeah perfect dude
and I think this is going to be really cool because it looks more like comedy-esque.
Over the top, kind of.
Didn't they do, what is that movie?
You said you hated Lance.
It comes at night or something like that.
Yeah, was that A-24?
Yeah, that bored the hell out of me.
So I would say that no good resolution.
I think that's the only movie that people were kind of mixed about.
Yeah.
But listen, if that movie had a cool ending, it would have been an amazing.
amazing movie.
Right now.
Because it led you up to it the whole way.
It was a good movie.
It just didn't have an ending.
Right now, Hereditary is in the mix for me for possible favorite movie of the year.
I think it's going to get eclipsed by a trailer we're about to talk about in a little bit.
But Ready Player 1, I hate to do it an on-horror for my number one, but that was a fucking awesome movie too.
But we'll see how it all plays out.
but 824
other than that
misstep to me anyway
which most people loved
the it comes at night thing
that's the one with Joel Egerton right?
Yes
yeah other than that I don't think
I've hated anything they've done
the only movie I didn't like was
what was it
to kill a sacred deer
oh the killing of a sacred deer
yeah yeah I was kind of like
I was more towards liking it
and then I re-watched it, and then it just kind of,
it didn't hold up to me the second viewing.
Well, the dialogue was fucking horrible.
But I think that was by design.
Yeah, I think it was, they were, yeah, they were meant,
I think they were meant to play the movie that way, so.
Yeah, bizarre.
But, uh.
You gotta be in the mood for one of their things.
True, true.
Like neon demon.
It's a really cool movie if you're in the mood for it.
But if you're not,
It's going to go right over your head, right?
It's slow as fuck.
And if you want something lighthearted, that ain't it.
It's not Arizona, huh?
But with this cast, it looks like this is going to be some comedic moments to this movie.
Especially, you know, you got Hannibal Burris and Chris Parnell in it, Paul Shear.
It's old.
I love Hannibal Burr's.
Steve, is that Steve from the walking, or not walking, Stranger Things?
Yeah.
Yeah.
He was the one that I noticed.
I was like, oh, okay, this kid's doing something else.
He is not allowed to cut that hair, is he?
I guess not.
Yeah, contract, probably, right?
At least they didn't C.J.I. it out.
Yeah.
Slice.
No clear release date, but it is coming before the end of the year.
All right.
Oh, okay, cool.
And our final trailer is the second trailer, actually.
of this movie. It is the remake
for Susperia
starring Dakota Johnson,
Mia Gauth, Tilda Swinton,
and others. Directed
by Help Me Out, Lance, Luca
Uh, French director, I think.
Luca Guadagnino?
I will go with that.
Fuck, I don't know. I will go
with either one of those.
Luca Gagnino.
Oh, Italy. He's from Italy. Sorry, guys.
Not French.
Oh, that makes sense.
So it's a Luca Guadignio.
There we go.
There you go.
It's official.
We'll go with that one.
All right.
Yeah.
What did you guys think of...
Yeah, what did you guys think of this new trailer?
Philip?
I mean, I'm definitely going to go see it.
I just...
You know, I've never seen the original.
And I know that it's a weird fucking movie.
And I'm sure that this one is going to be a weird fucking movie.
But I kind of got to see it just for the cast.
Yes.
I love Chloe.
what's her name?
Chloe Grace Moritz?
Yes.
Oh yeah.
Okay, yeah.
She's awesome.
Until the swim.
Can't go wrong with that.
Yeah.
This is it.
This is it for me, guys.
This is,
I think this is going to be my mother this year.
I don't think I'm going to rate it as highly as that,
but I'm very, very, very, very optimistic about this movie.
And normally I fucking hate when they remake movies.
but um
I mean between the cast
the director
um
you know the trailers that we've gotten
the music that you can hear in the background
in the trailers it's just
it looks like it's gonna be fucking amazing
and it's got just enough cult status
this is a movie
so where it's not like it's not so
big cult-wise
that you can't remake it like
you know rocky horror picture show or some shit
exactly but
it's
it's
popular enough where everybody knows what the fuck it is.
Yeah. And I think this is going to elevate Dakota Johnson because she's basically,
she's only known for, um, what is it?
50 shades. Yeah. The Dr. Gray bullshit or whatever. Yeah. And I think this,
this could kind of get her away from those movies. Well,
I'm, I'm going to tell you right now. And this is from another film that this same
director made that she was in. It's called a, a bigger,
bigger splash.
Okay.
Remember, it was my cool of the week,
the week I watched it.
I don't know if you guys remember me talking about it,
but she's a
fucking great actress,
which she's actually allowed to work on a
good, decent script.
Yeah. I remember seeing her
in a sitcom
before 50 Shades.
And I thought she was fucking hilarious,
man.
She's pretty good.
I just think, I think that she,
didn't know what she was signing on for
for the 50 Shades thing. And she
got pulled into it and I can't imagine
if even one of those guys enjoyed it
towards the end of that movie, towards the end of the
third movie, you know? And this also
stars Mia Gath.
Oh, she's from, yeah, from
what was it? The one with your boy,
Dane DeHine.
That's his name from now on.
Boy, Dane.
Sorry about the Dane.
Haute.
My element is kicking.
Let me go on a tangent here, row.
Dane DeHunt, you know he's going to be playing fucking Billy the kid.
I didn't know anything coming up.
I can see that.
I mean, look-wise, yeah, but, oh, my gosh.
He's such a, he sounds such like a young Keanu Reeves when he talks.
Wow.
Oh, my God.
See, it's not his, it's not his voice that bothers me.
It's that he just looks so tired.
Yeah, like they went and woke him up and it was like, we're ready to shoot.
Yeah.
And he's like, give me a minute.
And they're like, no, we got to go now.
He's like, all right.
He's got his big heroin circles around his eyes.
And that one guy has to be related to him, Charlie Heaton.
He's on Stranger Things.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
It has to be like his cousin or something.
Yeah, I hear you, man.
And their family just
They don't get no sleep at all.
Yeah, and he tries to be a bad
Keanu Reeves.
I get it, I get it.
I know all the jokes,
and he's a terrible actor.
Absolutely fucking horrible.
This whole thing started,
this Dane to Haude bullshit
started with that fucking Valerian movie
that I love so much from last year.
Good movie.
And it's a great movie,
but it has nothing to do with his acting.
But he was servicing.
Well, that's...
Oh, look,
Oh, I did, God damn it.
He's more about the visuals.
Listen, all I did, I just stepped up.
You guys said he was fucking horrible.
I said he was serviceable.
And for some reason, everybody thinks I'm the biggest Dane DeHan fucking Mark in the world here.
All I said was he was serviceable in a movie that had fantastic special effects,
gorgeous photography, you know, whatever.
I'm done.
Go ahead.
Sorry, guys.
Well, and for wellness.
I thought he was pretty good in that one, too.
He's been in a couple things I kind of like.
I don't think I've ever really hated him in a movie.
A lot of people do.
You haven't seen that newer one that he was in,
which was like set in France in the Renaissance period or whatever.
Oh, with Laura Croft?
That guy, that movie was fucking horrible.
Oh, yeah, Tulip Fever.
It was actually set in Amsterdam, I think.
All right, enough.
So he's going to play Billy the Kid, huh?
Yeah.
Okay, well.
I'm gonna bring us back in.
Mia Gauth, who's in that movie with him.
She has a very creepy, kind of weird look to her.
Oh, yeah.
And I think it's gonna add to this movie
because she kind of weirded me out in the movie.
Well, damn, the shit, no, I just forgot about it.
The Dane DeHan movie.
I already forgot about it.
We just brought it up.
Okay.
Is it a Cue for Walms?
A Cure for Will.
Yes, yes, yes.
Oh, okay, I got you.
She kind of weirded me out in that movie because she has a very young look to her,
but you know she's not young.
Yeah.
Yeah, creepy.
So, yeah, she's also in this.
I think everybody, this cast is amazing.
And I'm really looking.
I've never seen the original, and I've been waiting.
I want to do, like, I'm going to watch it the night before I go see this.
So I'll be fresh in my memory.
I've been waiting to do it for the show.
So, yeah, not too much longer, November 2nd.
We just went on a tangent about Dane DeHanagan.
All right.
We're both talked about people on this show.
Yes, he is.
Oh, yeah.
We have an awesome email, but I'm going to read that one at the end.
Yeah, save the best for last.
Yeah.
So regarding the poster for the Dark Heart of Jason Borheed,
the making of the final Friday.
Kevin Ness says,
F. New Line for this bullshit movie.
Is he talking about the documentary
or the actual movie?
I think the movie and anything that has to do with it.
Okay.
So we may see.
Oh man, I thought he was a huge Jason fan.
He is.
What the fuck are you talking about, Naz?
I thought you were the biggest Jason Mark ever.
Oh, I commented on there,
too. I know who's getting a Christmas
present this year. It's going to
be the Blu-ray of this.
And he said, no way, huh?
He loves Jason the way you love
Dame DeHaan. Oh,
that's going to be going on
all night.
All right. What are we going to have
a puppet name, Dame DeHon next, or what?
Dame DeHon as
Jason Borges.
Oh, no.
All right, we got
Darren Wilson.
Sadly from the interview I read,
most of the gory R-rated
unseen stuff from Meg
is more like digital FX scenes
they thought of but didn't do
rather than things that got made and edited out.
Oh.
That sucks.
So much for the director's cut we were hoping for.
Yeah.
Thomas Mariani says
Statham was evidently pissed about the PG-13 rating
that he didn't sign up for.
Then again...
Yeah.
So then again, an R-rated version would have been under Eli Roth.
So silver lining?
There's the required Eli Roth mentioned for the show.
There you go.
Do you think it would have been better or worse with Eli Roth?
Better?
It had to be better.
Yeah, but right now it's killing it in the box office.
It's number two right now.
Right.
And five years from now, we're going to have the Meg 17.
right? Oh yeah.
Uh-huh.
Well, they better be
a whole lot goryer, and people better
die. It won't. It won't.
They're going to keep the same formula, dude.
If it's making that much money, they're going to
get it for kids.
Instead of a shark, it'll be
something else. It'll be the same
movie, but with a different
underwater creature.
Maybe the squid. A cracking.
Yeah.
A crockin.
All right, Chad.
Pete, yo, says,
thanks for the shirt and coozy, guys.
please start selling your suits
because I want to buy another one.
What?
Good idea.
We need a store.
All right.
I'll get on that too.
Well, I have a couple of ideas.
Okay.
I just need to find time to make them happen.
Art Callie says,
hell's yeah, this new design is sweet.
And Jared E. Bursler-Mosser says love it.
Okay, well,
appreciate all the feedback but on that note guys we may be having
we'll probably keep that original design too to have it available
but we may or may not I don't want to give too much away yet but we may or may not
be getting a brand new custom design logo
that just makes some collectors items
all right we'll see how it goes
get them while they last they're hot hot hot 4995
Actually, all you need to do is leave an iTunes review.
It's free.
Regarding the new American Horror Story poster,
Gene Turner says, wow, that poster is pretty horrifying.
Stephen Loblad has just finished up asylum
and still holds up really well.
Jessica Lang deserves an Emmy for her role.
Damn, I would agree.
I would totally agree with that.
Good call.
Coming back for the new season,
with pretty much the original cast from the first season.
Yeah.
And that's coming out like in the next couple of weeks or something, right?
Yep, early September.
Oh, badass.
I've heard good things.
Regarding the poster for Mrs. Claws,
Ryan Stevens says,
this looks so stupid, which just makes me want to watch it more.
Mrs. Clause, what is that?
A Christmas horror movie.
Oh boy
A female horrid.
It's what you think it is.
Yeah, sounds bad.
Is she a sexy Mrs. Plus?
No, judging from the poster, no.
We'll see what happens.
Regarding the upcoming Blu-ray release of Maximum Overdrive.
Yes!
They listen to us!
Thomas Mariani.
In all caps, with a period.
after every single word says are we getting the uncensored steam roller kill or not i try to take my
pauses we we better we better i know is there one is there a for real one yes okay well let's see if we
can see it uh and let's see let me get to my email that we
we got from
Jeff Laramore
who is awesome
says hi guys
I stumbled across you guys when I was
looking for the best of worst of
horror movie reviews and was stoked
to hear Brian talk about
the very much Miss Santos
Ellen Black Saint Jr.
So I immediately
searched for the episode he appeared
in. Man it was great to hear
the Black Saint again. This guy had
such a wealth of knowledge. Love the
genre and what a voice.
And Cuso did totally suck.
Yes, it did.
Since then, I've been listening
pretty regularly and also just heard
the Doc Rotten episode.
Thanks for bringing in the guests from other
podcasts makes the show interesting in a
unique way. Keep it up.
Thanks, Jeff L. Larimore.
Yours very truly.
That was awesome, man.
Cool. Yes, it was.
Thank you so much.
No kidding. I like having some feedback like that. So he likes, you know, when we get people on from other podcasts, which may be something cool that's in the works.
Well, we could have some sort of expanded podcast universe.
Nice. All right, cool. Well, I mean, emails like that are kind of why we're doing this, huh?
Exactly.
Yeah, man, that put a smile on my face. It's going to be here for a while.
Well, that's definitely badass. So, yeah, keep listening.
I mean, that means the world to us to get something like that.
You know what, folks, if you don't have iTunes, you can't leave an iTunes review.
Just send us an email like that.
And we probably need to get your address so we can get you a T-shirt, man, too.
Okay, so if you're going to send an email with that much thought put into it and we read it on air, fuck it.
We'll send you a T-shirt in a coozy.
Deal?
You guys okay with that?
Yeah, I'm absolutely okay with that.
But if you could go leave some iTunes review also, that would totally help.
Yeah, and also, I never really thought about it.
I don't think we ever mentioned it.
I believe people can leave comments on Podbean.
I think so.
I don't know how to do it, though, do you?
I can look into it, but if anybody, if that is true
and you listen to us through Podbean, leave us a comment.
All right, cool.
Yeah, well, read that sucker on there
and figure out whether it qualifies for the T-shirt.
I don't want to talk out of my ass.
Fair enough.
But that's it for feedback this week.
It was a pretty good week for it.
Thanks to everyone who reaches out for us.
We love your ideas, just like that one.
You can always reach us at the Horror Returns at gmail.com.
And don't forget, we're still running the contest,
so be sure to go leave a five-star rating in iTunes.
And check us out on the Horror Returns group on Facebook
or just search the horror returns on any of our other social medias.
And we're there for you, man.
Thank you guys.
You make it possible.
We love you.
We'll start off with Meet the Feebles.
A little bit of trivia.
Director...
Oh, wow.
You know what?
I think I totally fucked up my notes here.
I said Brian Henson was the director of Meet the Feebles.
That could not be less true.
It was Peter Jackson, who also did the Lord of the Rings movies, right?
Yeah.
So I'm fucked up on that.
Definitely not Ryan Henson, definitely Peter Jackson.
Writer Fran Walsh, who has worked with Jackson on all of his other films and, in fact, married him,
as well as Steven Sinclair, Danny Mulheron, and Peter Jackson.
The production team could not get hold of blank rounds for the M60 machines.
gun used in the film.
And therefore the gun was firing
live ammunition.
Awesome.
And if you look closely,
if you look closely at the audience
of the Feebles Variety Hour,
talking about low,
low budget secrets here,
it can be seen that most of the audience members
are actually cardboard cutouts.
Only a few are puppets or people in
costumes. So,
I did not notice that.
Yeah, I didn't either, man.
And I kind of noticed, though, that there were some members of the alien race from Peter Jackson's other low-budget early movie called Bad Taste.
Oh, yeah.
That I caught, but I didn't catch the cardboard cutout.
So he must have done a pretty good job.
A little low lighting.
Yeah, there you go.
Meet the Feebles.
Who's going first?
I guess I will.
This one was, I, I see.
saw
the Happy Time
Murders
before I saw
this one.
Oh,
okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
I'll set
that one up
for you.
So maybe
I was just
kind of done
with the whole
puppet thing
by then.
But,
well,
and that's not
to say anything
negative
that we
hadn't got there
yet.
This one,
to me,
I felt like
was maybe,
I think you
call it
a dark comedy,
but I don't
think
that's necessarily what it was because I don't think anything that they did was really funny.
It was just like how far can we push these puppets? It's like Peter Jackson was really on some
serious drugs and was just trying to figure out how far he could push a movie. And so instead of
using people to push this super gross stuff, he put puppets in. So it would be slightly more
acceptable, but still pushing the boundaries.
I really
think that's what this movie was all about.
I think the stuff that was maybe
trying to be funny was not
necessarily funny.
I've seen this movie
one time before this was a rewatch
and
I did enjoy it
but
I'm not into the song
and dance stuff. It kind of
takes me out. I mean, some of the
songs were kind of, yeah, some of the songs
were kind of funny because there was one song.
I think it was about the
the joys of anal sex.
Right.
Or so.
Yes.
But,
I mean,
but it,
it's not necessarily,
yeah,
it's not necessarily this movie.
It's,
it's movies that just,
you know,
a lot of singing.
It just really takes me out.
Mm-hmm.
But,
you know,
it,
yeah,
you're right,
Phil,
they,
they tried to push
the boundaries of
what,
what puppets could do.
Because, you know, as a kid growing up in the 80s,
you know, you watch Sesame Street and Fraggle Rock,
and then you watch this movie,
and then you're seeing puppets, like, shooting up and doing cocaine.
Right.
Just crazy.
Disgusting shit.
Just crazy shit.
You got the fly that, what is he, like,
the investigative recorder?
Yeah.
And he's in the left-wing media.
that was pretty funny.
Yeah.
And, you know,
like with that,
they're pushing the boundaries
because he's in the toilet
like eating shit
and like the rabbit
that has supposedly has like
an STD.
He's like up under his
blanket like licking his rash
talking about,
oh, that doesn't taste good.
You got something really bad.
Yeah.
You have like pussed all over his face
by the end of it.
Why?
It's in the toilet.
It looks like a bowl
of just chilly.
It's so gross.
And of course,
you got
you got puppet sex
going on
within like what?
The first five minutes
of the movie.
Oh yeah.
You thought it was bad
and happy time murders.
You know you ain't seen shit.
Yeah.
They get raunchy in this one.
I really think this movie falls.
I didn't, usually,
usually I keep it a little green
when I watch movies.
This one I did not.
I think I messed out.
Yeah.
Yeah, I should have been green as shit.
I did, and it wasn't as good as I would be.
Oh, really?
It wasn't as good as you were hoping for, huh?
Yeah.
I was like, all right, there we go.
But, I mean, I'm always fascinated with the way they use puppets and puppetry and all like that,
because it's a lot of work that goes on, especially to do a feature-link movie.
There's so much work that went on, and I thought the puppets looked,
great and everything, the effects of them walking around, I thought was, you know, it was super cool.
Some of this was dudes and suits.
Yeah.
Yeah, some of the bigger ones, like the bosses and stuff like that.
But yeah, aside from that, and I don't know, maybe the video quality of the one that I was
watching was not great, but it was, that's what I was talking about when I said, the low lighting,
you know, it was, I felt like it was really dim and not a super cool.
clear picture the whole time. And so you didn't even get
how detailed these puppets were, which was okay, because a lot of it was
really gross. But it did give you kind of a really nitty-gritty, raw feeling to it.
Well, let's see if we can go two for two. We put out
in the universe that maximum overdrive should be on
Blu-ray. So let's put it out there right now. Let's put
this movie needs to be on Blu-ray.
Oh, yeah, absolutely. I just,
just because it's Peter Jackson.
Right.
Like, what the fuck?
Peter Jackson did this?
Is this not on Blu-ray?
I think the DVDs, like,
kind of rare.
I could be wrong, but I think to purchase the DVD is rare.
I don't think it's on Blu-ray.
Huh.
Okay.
Well, that's kind of strange.
I mean, Peter Jackson movie,
even though it was an early one,
you know, considering some,
the stuff that he's done with the King Kong
remake and all that, you know?
We're in a time now where
people are getting
fired off of movies for some
10-year-old tweets. So...
Right.
Maybe he's trying to get shit on the wraps.
Yeah. Did we ever
talk about that?
The James Gunn thing?
I know.
That's, man, I'm sorry,
but quick tangent again.
All right. I don't even know what the fuck
I don't either.
I don't either.
What are you allegedly say?
I don't know.
I'm not going to say word for word because I'm not sure.
But he made, I think in 2002, he made jokes about rape and pedophilia.
They were jokes.
Okay.
Jokes are jokes, man.
Standard comedians do it every day.
I can't remember, but I think I did read one.
And I was like, well, that's not even funny.
Not because of the subject matter.
It just wasn't, you know, didn't make me laugh.
Yeah, I was stupid.
He wrote a bad joke
25 years ago.
He apologized in 2012
for them.
But now here we are in 2018
and he's being fired
and it is official now
because the cast got together
and wrote a letter to Disney
and I'm talking Chris Pratt
Zoe saw to everybody.
And they signed it, sent it to him
but I guess it's official. He is not doing
Guardians 3. And apparently
Dave Batista said,
Yeah, Dave Batista said he, if they don't even use his script for the third movie that he's already wrote, he's not going to be in the movie.
I think it's fucking ridiculous that they fired him.
It's fucking stupid.
It's not, you never said some dumb shit.
Disney should know better.
Of all companies, Disney should have the acumen to know that, you know, you don't do that.
Outrage society, man.
Fucking ridiculous.
It's a joke.
Yeah. It's, I don't know. I don't know what to say. And you got, he's had so many people come out backing him. I mean, Kurt Russell came out backing him saying, you know, he's a nice, you know, sweet guy. And, you know, he, whatever he did in the past, you know, it was stupid. It was, you know, a subject matter that, you know, people, you know, don't take light of. But he apologized for it then.
and he's getting fired over it now and it's stupid.
And there was another actress that's not even in the movies.
What is her name?
Selma Blair.
Is that her name?
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, Selma Blair.
Sure.
She came out backing him.
So, yeah, it's stupid.
And I didn't mean to interrupt our review, but I know we didn't talk about it,
but I think it's fucking stupid.
Well, hey, that's why we have a longer show,
and we can talk about this shit.
They try to compare it to like the Roseanne Barr thing, right?
Actually, I don't think that they are trying to compare it, but I'm sure that's why they did it.
But, and even the Roseanne thing, I think, was kind of a knee-jerk reaction.
This is a knee-jerk reaction that happened fucking 15 years ago, you know?
It's crazy.
And I believe there's other direct...
He's not fucking funny for president.
And if he was, he'd still fucking make it, obviously.
Yeah. Oh, wow. Hey, now hold on. We don't talk politics here.
That wasn't politics. I'm just saying.
Okay.
You don't think they got more dirt on Donald Trump than James Gunn?
Well, I believe I believe I could be wrong. Somebody comments, send us an email, whatever.
I think he, whoever pulled up this stuff and put it out there was because they didn't like his views, I think, on Donald Trump.
Oh
Everything comes back to that shit
Weird
I could be
If I'm wrong
I don't want to
I don't if I'm wrong
Please correct me
But I believe that's what I heard
You're probably right
That doesn't surprise me
That's a close sense
Out of anything in this story so far
Right
So okay
So we're
We're going down to rabbit hole guys
Yes
Back to
Puppet drugs and sex
So what's
Firing fly ammunition
To disguffed animals
What the fuck?
Really?
Philip, you said you were kind of
Puppeted it out by the time you saw it
Brian, what was your general feeling about it?
I enjoyed it, but
I've seen this before
Happy Time murders, so
All right, I do too.
This kind of got me more excited
because
the trailers for Happy Time Murders
I wanted to see some, you know, really raunchy and just, you know, shit you're not supposed to see with puppets.
Yeah.
And, you know, I got that here.
But like I said before, I'm not a song and dance guy.
I can't do it.
It takes me, it really takes me out.
And, but overall, I did enjoy it, though.
It's to see something that a guy that did the Lord of the Rings trip.
started from this is really, really remarkable.
I have to say, if it wasn't Peter Jackson,
I would fucking hate this movie.
Are you serious?
Yeah, dude.
If I didn't know that Peter Jackson was attached to it,
I'd be like, what the fuck am I watching?
What sick, deranged drug-induced crap is this?
All right, well.
I was wrong.
You can buy the DVD for $18
on Amazon.
Blue Ray?
Blue Ray?
Not available.
And on our store,
only for 4995.
We got to get a movement started, right?
Yeah.
So hopefully we can see this baby on Blu-ray, but
it's like a piece of it.
Yeah, Philip, maybe you'll enjoy it better, man,
with a better picture.
Oh, yeah.
It wasn't like just fucking terrible.
It just, I don't...
I don't like...
He did what he was trying to do,
and I just...
It's just not a movie that I really wanted to watch.
Mm-hmm.
Well, I mean, you guys know I'm kind of the elder statesman
of the group here.
You know, there's...
It's no mystery that I'm...
You know, I've been around...
Been on the planet a few years longer than you guys.
So, um, I remember...
remember some really, really fine memories of being a kid and watching the Muppet show on TV?
You guys remember that at all?
Or have you seen any of the original Muppet show?
Oh, yeah.
So when they started off, and I started watching this movie, and they're doing that Meet the Feebles act there at the beginning with the music and everything.
And it was just, to me, it was just like an absolute perfect take on the original Muppet show.
And then when they went backstage and they started, you know, showing the signal.
smoking and the cussing and the sex and the drugs and
I thought they did a lot of really really really really
good world building in this
that nice little pussy he had you know you know what
I thought this was brilliantly written I think I thought that
all of every single character they gave them a backstory
so you kind of knew where everybody was coming from and everybody had their
own little you know reason for doing what they were doing
all the bosses and the sycophants of the bosses
like the ass-lickers and stuff like that
we're all like humans
in Muppet disguise
so they're like the big bullies
like it's an animal kingdom type thing
we're survival of the fittest
and they were like the predators and stuff
like that which I thought was kind of cool
you had the little naive
little British
hello governor
little character
oh yeah one head of the show
He's fine.
And he fucking falls in love with a chick.
And then, of course, you have to have that moment where there's the,
he misconstrues what she's doing because she basically gets Bill Cosbyed.
Oh, the attempted rape scene?
Yeah.
She gets Bill Cosby.
That was great.
Oh, I was like, what am I watching?
You know what?
I got to tell you guys, I fucking love this movie.
I fucking loved it.
And I did not think I was.
gonna like it that much.
Because I knew it was a really, really
early film of
Peter Jackson.
Like, I think between this one and bad taste,
and didn't, correct me,
Brian, if I'm wrong, but didn't he do a couple
of, like, really shitty
B-grade horror movies early in
his career or something like that as well?
Yeah, didn't he do...
Oh, what is...
Oh, gosh.
Dead alive? Is that what it's
called? Was it dead alive?
That's a cult classic too.
Yeah.
I think later on we'll be revisiting that in our horror movies that we do from different countries.
Oh, bad ass.
I've not seen that one in a while.
Is that the one where the guy takes down to all the zombies with the lawnmower?
I don't know.
I don't think I've ever seen it, man.
I had never seen this one before.
Okay, so this is one of those movies.
It's not a big mystery that you.
You guys know that a lot of the time I watch these on my lunch break at work.
And so if it's a TV show, like an hour or less, I can catch it all.
But if it's a movie, I usually have to spread it out over two days.
And this was like, what, an hour and a half, hour and 35 minutes.
This is one of those that made me kind of cheat a little bit at work and go over my lunch hour.
I was so into the movie and enjoying what was going on and checking out all.
all the different characters and stuff like that
that I actually sat there and watched the full
movie and took kind of a little bit
of a long lunch break there, but
yeah, I fucking loved it.
And the ending with a machine gun.
Oh, that was great.
That was pretty good. I'll give them that.
But yeah, see, I...
Holy shit.
I had to split it up into two parts, man.
Yeah, well, because I tried to watch it
on Friday night when we came home
from the Happy Time murders.
And I fell asleep during it.
Not necessarily because of the movie,
just because I was tired.
But then I woke up the next morning
and started watching it again.
And yeah, maybe you're right, Brian.
I should have been a little greener for that part of it.
That was the night before.
That's why I fell asleep.
I sure did love the ending, too,
when they showed what happened to the character.
so many years after the events of the movie and stuff like that?
Oh, like, what is the main character?
Wendy, was that the cow or whatever?
What was she a hippo?
Oh, Heidi, Heidi, yeah, she's working at a grocery store under a different identity.
Yeah, kind of like a witness protection program.
Yeah, after she served her time.
Yeah, I got to tell you, I mean, this movie to me did,
This movie gave me everything I wanted from a naughty puppet movie.
I really enjoyed it.
I really did not think I was going to enjoy it that much.
I loved all the music.
I loved the musical numbers.
I thought it was very original.
I loved all the violence and gore.
I thought the fucking the rabbit that thought he had AIDS.
They wouldn't mention it.
They just said, oh, you've got the big one.
Oh, oh, no.
How long do I have?
12.
12 years, 12 hours
It's just like
fucked up
And then the doctor called it said
I kind of fucked up on your diagnosis
You've just got rabbit pox
I'll send you the bill
I'll send you the bill
I loved it
It was a great movie guys
Thank you Brian for picking this one man
Because we've been seeing some shitty ones lately
I really enjoyed it
I think I liked it the most of the three
it sounds like are you all ready for scores
yeah yeah
I'll go first
I'm going to give it a
four and a half
I think it was worth watching
mostly because it's Peter Jackson
if you've never seen it
definitely go check it out
but don't want to watch it again
all right well not a huge fan
that's okay that's all right
I'm going to give it a six and a half
I like the puppets.
There were some funny moments in there,
but the thing that just really, really
brought it down for me was
the singing.
Not the singing guy.
I kind of like that.
All right, well, you know, to each
their own. I'm definitely going to give
it, I'm giving it an eight, guys.
It's like
if this came up, this year, this might
be in my top five of the year.
I really love what he did with the characters.
I love the way he gave him all
backstory like the drug-addicted
Vietnam veteran and
the fucking pornographic
rat.
Oh, that shit was weird.
I was just thinking about it again.
I can't wait to see this movie again.
I just, this is
probably one I'll watch a couple more times.
AJ would fucking hate it.
My wife would absolutely
not watch this movie with me at all
but I enjoyed it.
I really did, guys.
Brian, thank you for picking this one, man.
You're welcome.
Writer Todd Berger, also known for It's a Disaster.
Have you all seen that one?
No.
I think I've seen it, but I don't remember it.
So, who knows.
I know it had David Cross in it.
I bet it was a disaster.
It's one of those weird indie movies where it's like a small group of people enclosed in one house that are at like a dinner party.
And they keep hearing, like, news reports that the world is ending, like nuclear bombs going off or some shit like that.
and is it really happening or is it or is it not we don't know because they never leave the house type thing
kind of esoteric i don't yeah i don't remember it too well it was interesting but it wasn't great
i think it's one of those where david cross was kind of like the only thing i liked about it
um but anyway um sesame workshop sued the team behind this film for the tagline no sesame all street
I'll come with fuck on.
Yeah, claiming that the film tarnishes their reputation.
Well, of course it does.
At one point, Catherine Hegel was reportedly to star.
Boo.
Yeah, I'm glad they didn't go that route.
My wife is watching Grey's Anatomy again for the fucking, like, 16th time, by the way.
So I'm so Catherine Heigled out, I cannot see straight.
I get it.
I get it.
The title chosen for the Italian release is a spoof of Tarantino's Inglorious Bastards.
In Italy, the title was changed to Tupazzi Sinsa Gloria, which translates to inglorious puppets.
Okay.
Wow.
Okay, who's going to tackle this one first?
I'll go first.
I was really hyped for this movie, the trailer, especially the Redmond.
and trailer really had me laughing.
Right.
I grew up watching Jim Henson's stuff
and then finding out that his son is, you know,
doing a movie, doing a movie for adults.
I was like, yeah, I'm in.
And I was a little disappointed by the end of the movie.
Were you?
Yeah.
I wanted to just from the beginning to the end,
just laughing my ass off.
But I was just chuckling here
and there were there were some good moments
and then but there were some moments like with the jokes were just not
I was just like oh that's not funny it's just kind of
bad writing and
I kind of and I also want to see a more mix of
of humans in this movie you know like we
we only got Melissa McCarthy
and um what's her name uh
Elizabeth Elizabeth Banks we didn't really get I mean
Joe McHale was in the movie for what five minutes
has Joe McCail
been relegated, ever since community
which was a great show. Has he been relegated
to playing like the
required douchebag in every
movie? Pretty much, that's
all he... Yeah, but
I wanted him to be a douchebag
more in this movie.
I think he was a douchebag
plenty. He came rolling up.
Okay, not more of a
douchebag, but him
playing
in the movie more. I mean, like
he would show up for like a minute and then
he would be gone and then he'd show up for two
minutes and then he would be gone and then he showed up in the end and then they did the same joke that
they were running with him not going to give it away yet but right it doesn't you know they kept playing
the same joke with him and it was just getting tired tiring and i was just and i don't have a problem
with melissa mccarthy i know she you know when you see in the movies you know she's going to
fall down and have some kind of you know moment where she gets in some kind of accident or gets hit
or something sure i'm fine with it but let us
some reason,
humor.
Yeah,
for some reason
this movie,
I was just
kind of like,
eh.
Um,
I did think of you,
Philip,
because the,
the main puppet's name
is Phil Phillips.
I thought about that,
too.
I knew that was going to be
a running joke.
But overall,
I was that puppet?
But overall,
I thought this movie
was going to be just rude,
raunchy,
disgusting,
and it,
I didn't get that.
I just got moments of it.
and I came off kind of, my wife went with my son.
I forgot to say he just graduated a youth military academy, came home.
Nice. All right.
He was laughing his ass off.
Because that shit was funny.
My wife kept looking at me like, is this supposed to be funny?
And, you know, my wife really wanted to watch this.
It's not like I dragged her to the movie, but it just, it really came off really disappointed.
Were you agreeing to this one?
No.
we was coming from his graduation, so.
Well, then you should have been extra.
Yeah, trust me.
Trust me being there and how long it was.
I should have been.
Well, fair enough.
So, Brian, do you remember me sending you a,
I think I sent you a message or a text or something?
What was that?
Do you remember?
I sent you the text after I saw it.
Something about our, you know how we did our end-of-year show
where we do our top five and our bottom five every year?
Yeah.
What was it I asked you?
I think you said we had to stretch it out from five to ten.
Our bottom, right?
Yeah.
Okay.
You know what?
This movie was a fucking piece of shit.
I would love to say, oh God, I would love to say this is a definite bottom five for me,
but I can't, this has been such a horrible year in movies,
guys. I mean, we've had a couple
of Shining, you know,
we talked about hereditary
earlier.
You had a few other movies that have been fantastic.
Oh my God.
What is going on, guys?
The last three weeks,
man, between Meg, Slender Man, and this?
Are you fucking kidding
me?
I mean, seriously, dude, this, we got to,
we're going to have to do a bottom 10 this year,
man. I've got
to get this movie in the bottom. Some
how.
You haven't even watched Day of the Dead yet.
I haven't even seen Day of the Dead mudline yet,
but I have committed to watching it before the end of the year,
before we do that show.
So, so bad.
So bad.
It's like, in my opinion,
Jackson showed us how to make a good, nasty Muppets movie
in the last one.
And that fucking Henson,
and he's made some good shit.
That's what I don't get.
And he hasn't...
I don't even think he's directed a movie
since Muppet's Treasure Island, has he?
I don't think so.
This is horrible.
Melissa McCarthy,
what in the fuck
is going on with her?
She's been in some bad shit lately.
So she was actually nominated
for Best Supporting Actress
for the what about the wedding,
bridesmaids. Remember that?
Yeah.
Yeah.
She had such a bright future.
And the fuck is she done lightly.
What did she have been lately that you really, really?
I mean, aside from Ghostbusters.
Oh my God, Ghostbusters sucked.
Central Intelligence sucked.
Was that that spy movie?
Do what?
Oh, you mean a spy movie?
You mean a spy hard?
Well, that's fucking, yeah, spy.
That fucking sucked.
That one didn't.
The boss sucked.
I didn't see that one.
Every fucking thing she's been.
in lately, it sucked. I mean, I don't
know what is going on with this bitch.
She's physical comedy.
I mean, we get it. You're fat.
You're fucking fat. We get
it. Funny. Ha ha.
Jesus fucking Christ.
She does the same voice.
She does the same fucking character.
It's the same goddamn thing
over and over again. She doesn't have any
range anymore. Is she addicted
to drugs and she has to do this
fucking take any role?
What the fuck is going on here?
Elizabeth Banks and Maya Rudolph are hot.
Okay?
They looked great in the movie.
But they couldn't act worth shit.
And then this guy, I don't even know where to go from here, guys.
I kind of like the best actor in the whole movie was Phil Phillips.
Bill Phillips.
Philip, what do you think?
Is it me?
I think he's best actor, too.
Just because of the same.
All right.
guys, I know this one has been getting a lot of shit on the internet and obviously from critics
because critics don't typically like comedies, but I liked it. I thought it was fucking funny.
Not every joke landed. I love it when we have differences of opinion. Yeah. Not every joke
landed, that's true, but how many comedies do you watch were every joke lands? You know what I mean?
Like even something like stepbrothers.
which is fucking classic level.
That's a classic, yeah.
And, I mean, on their back and forth, you know.
The Catalina Wine Mixer, man.
Right.
The fucking Catalina Wine Mixer, right?
Fucking Catalina Wine Mixer.
Cobbiasi.
Some of it's funny.
Some of it's, like, some of it's hilarious,
and some of it, it's just not funny.
You know, you can't hit on every single joke.
And I...
This doesn't call on the level.
I'm sorry.
No, go ahead.
Go ahead.
I was just going to say,
you're right,
because comedy is subjective.
Yeah.
Because this didn't hit for me,
but I didn't mention it before,
but I saw a tag,
which I did not think I was going to like,
but I ended up enjoying that movie.
Oh, I was going to watch that.
I watched that this week, too.
I'm going to watch that one.
So, you know, I do agree with you,
you know,
what's funny to me is not funny to you or funny.
You know, so I do agree with you.
Now, it's definitely not the greatest comedy,
and it doesn't really compare to Stepbrothers.
I was just saying, look, even this best comedy has some jokes that don't land.
But when they did, I thought that they were really funny in this movie.
You know, it kept a pretty good pace of,
just when you're starting to get bored,
they do something really fucking funny.
And the really fucking, I mean, look,
just from the Red Band trailer,
the goddamn puppet with the silly string jizz,
that shit is hilarious.
And I was waiting for it in the movie,
and when I saw it,
it was just as hilarious as it wasn't the trailer.
And I liked their level of raunchiness,
because they brought some comedy to it.
That's something that I thought to Peter Jackson
and thing didn't do.
You know?
I mean, because they just showed
raunchy puppets that were
being gross to be gross.
They weren't really funny.
Yeah, I agree with you, but I wanted more.
It's just there was a lot of lag time.
It was like,
because,
oh, maybe it's because they were trying to pull you into this,
they were trying to pull you into this, like,
you know,
noir cop story.
You know, the P.
Yeah, he said,
He's sitting there at his, he's a P.I.
He's sitting at his desk and he's like, yeah.
It was a slow day.
And then she walked in.
Right.
You know, that whole fucking chick.
Yeah.
Well, and their problem was the story behind the whole fucking movie was not strong enough to support them relying on that whole story.
I'm glad you at least admit to that.
Yeah.
Because it definitely was.
Philip, you're fucking silly stringing all over this movie, dude.
At least you agree with me on that point.
But I think, you know, they probably should have picked a route whether to go, you know, just super comedy and stupid scenes one after the other and just ran with it, which I think that they probably should have done.
Or to be a serious movie, but to be, I mean, not necessarily a serious movie, but to have like a really good story behind it.
A serious movie.
Yeah, not serious.
But like to have a really good story.
They had like a really good fucking Disney movie plot behind this shit.
Okay.
And they had puppets jizzing silly string all over the place.
Right.
That could have been a win.
They didn't do either of these things.
So it sort of fell not necessarily middle of the road because I still really enjoyed myself, man.
There were a lot of times where I was laughing out loud.
I'm glad you did.
I'm glad you did.
I don't want to take that away from you, man.
from the office was great
and what about that puppy
the sexy puppet
right
you're talking about the what
the puppy no
no not the fireman
no the pup the puppet
where the
the carpet definitely don't match the drapes
oh my god
would you
that was such a horrible
horrible storyline guys
you know what
And what made that...
Puppet is what I'm asking you.
Okay, with that one,
with that one, I'm going to have to say no,
because weirdly enough,
that puppet looks like somebody I know.
Oh, no!
Yeah, I leaned over to my wife,
and I was like, you know who that looks like.
She was like, I know exactly who you're thinking about.
Well, now you can't say that you'd fuck puppet
because your wife would hear you say that,
and she'd think that you're talking about there
because women are fucking crazy.
How she don't listen.
Guys, who hasn't fucked a puppet?
Uh-oh, I got quiet.
Hello.
Queer the crickets.
But that puppet in particular was kind of sexy.
I was like, I better put, I better pussy his velvet.
Yeah, yeah.
Whoa.
Anyhow.
No, I had a good time with this one, and I was very green.
Cool.
I'm glad you enjoyed
Probably helped
All right
Were you guys ready for score
So we can spoil
Yeah
Brian you at first
I'm gonna give it a
Five
Wow
I didn't hate it
I didn't love it
I'll get to
Why I wish I would have loved it
More in spoilers
But
Yeah
It was kind of
In the middle for me
Yeah
I'll give it a two
It's, yeah, like I said, not bottom five, but probably definitely bottom ten for the year.
I just thought the story went nowhere.
I thought that all the stuff of the ending, you could have seen it coming a mile away,
and then they tried to do this fucking brilliant quote-unquote twist that was stupid,
and just didn't do it for me, guys.
Sorry, I'll give it to.
Yeah, I wish the twist had been better.
That was the one thing that stuck on my head the whole time, and we'll get more into it,
and spoilers.
But, yeah, when that came out, I was like, well, no wonder nobody saw that shit coming,
because it doesn't make any fucking sense.
Yeah.
But aside from that, I do think it was, I think it was very funny.
I really enjoyed myself.
I know it's getting shit on in the world, but I really enjoyed it.
I had a good time.
I'm going to give it a six and a half.
Cool.
Six and a half, not too bad.
All right, so we got basically, uh, one of us is on the fence.
One of us highly does not recommend it and one of us kind of recommends it.
Hell yeah, I totally recommend this.
All right.
This is, it's fucking funny, man.
Go see it.
Bad ass.
All right.
So, uh, spoiler time.
Um, 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.
All right.
Phil Phillips.
Phil Phillips.
Okay.
When we got to the sex shop and you get the octopus like jerking off the cows utteres everywhere,
that's what I thought, that's what I thought this movie was going to be.
Really?
I think maybe that's why I was disappointed.
And the whole fact that Phil Phillips is in there, he's trying to,
do his investigation and then you got this shit
going on behind him with the cow
and the octopus and he's just like what the fuck
is going on
and I that's what I wanted
more of this movie and then you just kind of got these
lulls in between where it's just him
and Melissa McCarthy's character
just like telling each other to fuck off
back and forth
they were but it
it was pretty funny when they did it
it was definitely
all ad lit it was one of those
oh yeah yeah it was
it was one of those spurred moment.
You guys just start insulting each other
and go back and forth and see who's funnier.
It was just...
Yeah, I just wanted more
of those other, you know, scenes.
Like when they tracked down the one
Happy Time gang member,
the one that's all...
Yeah, he's all strung out. He's like, I'll suck your dick.
You know, I thought that was funny.
That was funny.
It was kind of funny. It was because of his voice.
Yeah. But it's like, there was...
like I said, there was just these, like, moments in there where I'm like, okay, I want another scene like that.
And we're only getting these interactions with Phil Phillips and Melissa McCarthy.
And I just wanted more of that.
And then the thing with Joel McHale kind of got old.
Got a little stale, huh?
Yeah, you know, asshole says what, you know, and then he would just say what?
Yeah.
Well, I don't know.
I still like that part.
And my favorite part with Joe McHale
is when he came rolling up with
Benesic Carlton Blair and on the stereo
which I know
he's been done with Terry Cruz before
but I like
it when he did it. And I didn't find, I don't know
stripper Elizabeth Banks was not
hot at all to me.
She looked really
fucking old.
Probably not as hot as she should have been.
But Secretary Maya Rudolph
was kind of
of curvy and was kind of
working for me. She looked awesome.
See, there's something about her hair that was
fucking with me. Like, I like it when her hair's
down. Yeah, because it was supposed to be like a
1930s look, man.
It was working for me.
I get what they were doing, and I
really, I think Maya Rudolph is
she's one of those weird people, man, where
she sometimes is really attractive.
And then sometimes she's like,
okay.
Fair enough. This one, she's
was kind of in between on me.
And I'd wish they'd explain the one thing
a little bit more, because
Melissa McCarthy should be
fucking dead from all the
sugar she was ingesting in this movie
and drinking syrup. I'm like, is it
regular syrup or is it special?
Like, I didn't
get it. That was stupid.
There were some other movie, they ripped that off.
There was some other movie where somebody kept
drinking maple syrup all the time. Do you all
remember what that was? Super
Troopers? Was it?
When they were chugging maple syrup.
Okay.
All right.
I guess so.
I mean, I get it.
Yeah.
Just so stupid to me.
Yeah, I didn't, I didn't know what was going on with the syrup.
I mean, I kind of get the sugar, the sparkly glittered sugar that she was snorting.
But the syrup thing, I didn't, I was it like special syrup or was it like, I don't know.
I was kind of, I were treating it like it was scorn.
or something.
Yeah.
I mean, it was supposed to be,
I mean,
obviously a euphemism for drugs
and they probably should have just used drugs.
Yeah, I agree.
Oh, but I thought it was funny.
I mean, it was like, you know,
the drugs for the puppets.
Okay, sure.
That's true.
It should have just used
straight up.
Let's see.
Like I said, there was just scenes
that I really enjoyed,
and there was others I didn't.
I like the Elizabeth Banks
stripping with me.
the rabbits.
And she was like shaving up
the carrot peels all over there.
And it was talking about bite the tip
and all that.
And that was funny.
I thought that was funny.
Ugh.
I'm glad you guys enjoyed it.
I'm glad you enjoyed it, Philip.
So you think this,
I can't see though
how
this one to me
was definitely better
than the Peter Jackson would know.
No.
Fuck you.
dude. I don't know.
Bullshit.
It kept the story, man.
The characters, the writing.
The story and the characters.
The Peter Jackson one, man, that was gross for the sake of gross, dude.
Well, yeah, of course it was.
I get that he had a story behind it, but it was like a dark comedy,
and it wasn't fucking funny at all.
I get it.
And I mean, if you're going to use puppets to do gross shit, at least fucking make it funny.
And this movie did that.
Yeah.
Got a few belly lats.
out of it, huh?
Yeah, definitely.
There was a few times where I, like,
I never did, dude.
I was just awkward the whole time.
And I was the only one in the theater, man.
I could have done anything.
I could have jumped up,
run around the theater, run laps.
I could have done a cell phone the whole time.
I could have.
I had a pack theater.
Yeah?
Yeah, maybe that was part of the problem.
Because every time they just could be.
Something funny.
And this one, dude, the whole theater was laughing.
It was funny shit, man.
Yeah, I think my...
My, the fucking octopus was funny.
Yeah.
Oh, with the cow.
My theater was cracking up.
I think they were super Melissa McCarthy fans because I don't know if you guys ever noticed, like, her husband is always in the movies.
True.
Yeah.
Yeah, so when he had his little pop-up moment, like, everybody started clapping.
And I was like, well, you guys are really big Melissa McCarthy fans.
Yeah.
What was his pop-up moment?
At the end, when she got fired and she was, like, telling everybody, fuck you, fuck you.
I like you.
You, I would have fucked.
And he was the guy that she said she would have fucked.
Oh, that's her husband.
Okay.
Yeah.
He's like.
Like, it's not too late.
Yeah.
So.
All right.
Well, I don't know.
I don't have any more to say about this one.
I thought that part was, I thought the part was funny.
I laughed at it.
But I didn't hear anybody clap about it.
And, you know, I know Melissa McCarthy gets a ton of hate.
But, uh.
Yeah, like I don't have a problem with him.
her. She definitely plays the
same character in every movie, but so do
a lot of people, especially comedians. Kevin
Hart. We saw a
preview for this one with
oh man, damn it.
Oh, the night school movie.
Oh, fuck that movie.
No, it looks good, man.
With Tiffany. Okay.
My problem with that, I was a
big Tiffany Haddish fan
before she blew up.
Because her comedy was really
no, but even before that.
Okay.
I was a fan of her comedy, being a stand-up comedian.
Right.
Because she would do this thing.
She would do vagina farts, like for real, on stage.
Yeah, she put the microphone and she has a hidden talent that she can do that.
Wow.
And I was like, this lady is, this lady is nasty in a good way, and she was funny.
And then she started balls.
And I told my wife, eventually she's going to get overplayed.
And I think we've gotten there.
And she...
That's where we are now, huh?
Yeah, and same.
My favorite, because I really like Kevin Hart,
but then he was, like, in, like, 300 movies a year.
He was going to be my next to Tampa.
He plays the same character in every movie.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he's a little overplayed.
Tiffany Haddish is going to be in the next Tyler Perry movie, too, by the way, Brian.
Yeah, I know.
My wife wants to go, and I had to make a deal, so...
It's pretty good, man.
Yeah.
I saw three Tiffany Haddish previews before.
before this movie came on.
Yeah, I think I'll tolerate the Tyler Perry one more with her
because it looks like not his usual cast.
Yes, agree.
He's got like Whoopi Goldberg and who else is in that?
I don't know his name.
He's on that show Power on Stars.
He's the main guy.
He plays Ghost, the drug dealer.
So it's kind of weird.
He's in this movie.
So, yeah, I mean, we'll see.
I guess that would be a review coming up.
While we're on
tangents about previews,
I saw
the first preview that they showed on this one.
I assume they show
something really scary just to make sure kids aren't
in the audience, or if they are, they're like,
wait a minute, what the fuck I'm doing?
They showed the none.
Oh, I missed
that, dude.
It got my wife.
Yeah, it got me.
My wife won't come within
100 feet of that movie.
I see
I've seen it enough
that I knew that part was coming
so I was just kind of like
looking at my wife
at the corner of my eye
waiting
and then it happened
and she was just like oh shit
like the jump scare
yeah
at the end
yeah I looked at her
I was like we go on
and she was like no
we're not
that movie that like I saw
I've seen the preview
probably two or three times
on on YouTube
for whatever, just like watch it on my phone.
But to see it on the big screen,
every piece of that
is fucking terrifying.
Did you guys see the
YouTube ad that got pulled?
No.
Yeah, you can still watch it.
Because it was, you know,
how you watch videos and it'll pause for an ad.
Yeah, it was one of those,
but now it's not, it's just a regular YouTube video.
It's basically where the, you see the volume,
how you would adjust your volume on YouTube
and it's like slightly going up by itself
and then her face just pops up at the end
when the volume's on full volume
and I guess it was scaring the shit out of people
oh kind of like that old video where the
it says look at the screen real close or whatever
yeah it pops up
got it
so
oh one more trailer rant
a movie that we're going to be reviewed
that I am not looking forward to
100% now, Philip,
I am not looking forward to
Venom at all.
No, it's not too late to change it.
Let's take Venom off the schedule.
It's got Tom Hardy.
How bad can it be?
Fuck, dude.
Tom Hardy's been in some shit movies.
No, wait a minute.
Actually, he hasn't, has he?
No.
I can't...
I don't understand this accent
he has in this movie.
He sounds like,
Howard.
Oh, he does, doesn't he?
Yeah.
Like, just like
my wife pointed.
Yeah, my wife pointed it out
because we were watching Iron Man
when he was in the original one.
Uh-huh.
And he kept yelling for Tony's name.
He was like, Tony,
Tony, you know.
And then I'm watching this trailer
and then I'm like, he sounds like
fucking Terrence Howard.
And I don't understand why can't he use
like his voice he had in like
Mad Max or
something, I don't know.
Why, he just uses
real fucking accent?
Hey, maybe he's going to go into,
it's getting hot out here for a pimp.
You never know.
If Venom turns into a musical, I quit.
Like, movies.
The movie.
The only thing that intrigues me
about Venom is they're already,
I guess they just now signed him to
like two more movies.
Oh, no.
So.
Yeah, Mobius and whatever else, right now?
Oh, Morbius.
Yeah.
I'm excited about that, too.
Morbius sounds interesting.
Yeah.
But then again, there's no Spider-Man in none of these movies, so.
Well, Morbius had a comic book without Spider-Man in it.
Yeah.
So, I guess we'll see.
I'll still reserve my judgment until I see it.
I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.
um just because even though you know some of the spider-man movies because this one's sony right
yeah yeah even though some of the spider-man movies have not exactly been on point i haven't
really fucking hated any of them so marvel still has not really done me wrong except fantastic
four stuff okay no that that wasn't that was fox so yeah well i but fox doing marvel
yeah yeah and i mean which they hope they job with most of the experts yeah hopefully the rumors are true
about the casting for fantastic four as john krasinski as mr fantastic yeah yeah and you know
it'll work if they get his wife emily blunt because you know they're really married so so is that
marvel that's doing that or what yeah uh because you know uh disney bot fox so
Oh, they finally got it, huh?
Yeah.
So they're starting that whole thing, then.
Do we have a Wolverine yet?
No, they said none of that stuff will come until after this current phase of movies is done.
I guess after Avengers 4, we'll start hearing something.
Right.
Oh, shit, I just had something pop up.
Did you guys know John McCain passed away?
Oh, wow
No
I guess that's some
Breaking news now, huh?
I'm sure
I'm going to find some sort of way
to make that
I mean, even though he's in politics
They're going to
Well
One side are going to hang on him
You know, I mean, for what he went through
As a POWDU, I mean,
you know
That sucks
Whatever.
I mean, nobody lives forever, right?
Never want to see anybody die
He's pretty old.
And it's a
breaking news on a horror show talking about puppets.
Talking about puppies.
Oh, man.
All right.
You guys ready to wrap it up?
Yeah.
We don't want to get this thing too long, right?
Yeah.
That's what I should have done with the purple-haired puppet.
That's the drapes, huh?
Oh, what a bad movie.
Okay.
I'm glad you liked it, Philip.
Glad you enjoyed it.
Six of the half, huh?
Yeah.
As always, we want to thank you guys
for listening to another episode of The Horror Returns.
We would love to hear your feedback and ideas,
and you can always reach us at the Horror Returns at gmail.com.
Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, iTunes, etc.
Next week, it is the show
that many, many, many people begged for,
because they enjoyed our first one so much.
What are we doing next week, Brian?
We are doing our second installment of
Is it Really That Bad?
I enjoyed that show, man.
That was fucking fun to do.
Is it going to be Left in the Hood Part 2 or what?
I hope you guys are watching these movies along with this, man,
because this is, it's kind of fun to watch really bad horror.
Yes.
We will be reviewing 1999's
Bats
starring Lou Diamond
Yeah
Lou Diamond Hill
Yeah
I've heard such bad stuff
about this
We will also be
reviewing Dr. Giggles
Is that a bad movie though?
That's actually
got a pretty good
cult following doesn't it?
Yeah,
I'm part of that cult
following
but there is quite a few
people on the other side
of the fence so
Some haters, huh?
And we will be
reviewing 2005's
House of Wax.
Oh,
All right, and that one really is that bad.
I love the original, the 2005 one.
Is that the one with the chick that was the social media bitch?
What's her name?
Paris, Hope.
Yeah.
Oh, that movie sucks.
Okay.
I believe you.
I believe you.
I believe you.
I blame her for Kim Kardashian.
Yeah, I believe you type in social media bitch and her name comes up.
Okay, well, I can already tell you before.
Spoiler alert.
it is really that bad, but it's fun.
So it should be another good week.
God damn it, Philip and Brian.
The only regret I have is that we can't all hang out together
and watch these movies together.
Yeah, because it's kind of fun to watch bad movies with friends.
Oh, man, this is going to be fun.
Well, I don't want to speak on things,
but possibly maybe in the future, I will be moving.
So, yeah?
I might be leaving the great state of Alaska.
Well, we'll see what happens there, you know?
Yeah, fingers crossed because I hate to snow.
Oh, well, then you're in the wrong state.
For sure.
Anyway, we may be joined by a special guest next week, guys.
Oh, nice.
Maybe.

a contributor, frequent contributor
to our Facebook page, Darren Wilson.
