Hi, this is Dee Wallace from E.T. and Kujo and the howling, and you're listening to The Horror Returns.
Greetings, victims. For those of you who delight and dread, who fantasize about fear, who glorify gore, welcome, you have found the 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.
Welcome back, everybody, to the horror returns.
Good to see your smiling faces virtually, or at least imagine your smiling faces.
faces, but you've found the horror returns.
This is your place for all things
horror, then and now. What do we say?
Brian, news, reviews, and interviews.
All that shit. I've got to update
the website. It's been a while.
Where are they going to make us pay for the website again?
I guess I better be quiet, because we've had that thing
a long time, and I've never gotten another
bill for it.
How does it work? Oh, they'll charge you.
I promise.
I'll charge you twice.
Sometimes twice for years
in a row. That happens.
All right, well, hopefully we'll survive.
So anyway, you found the horror returns,
and this is Lance, and joined by weekly co-host Steve,
Brian and Phillip.
What's going on, guys?
What's up?
What's going on, fellas?
I wasn't here last week, but I was here for the March Maddennes.
Yes, indeed.
Yes, indeed.
Well, you had to be here for this week, dude.
True.
You're going to suffer through this shit with us.
It's my big, dumb ideas, getting me in trouble again.
It's all good, good, clean, hairy fun, you know.
Well, maybe for that, maybe for the sixth one, that fifth one, not much hair going on.
We'll get there.
We'll get there.
Yeah.
Okay, well, cool of the week.
Who's going to, who wants to jump in?
I got a bunch, so I'll go.
I know you do, man.
I got a couple of them.
Macon and you start Black Mirror, Brian?
No, I got to...
Me and my daughter got into a couple of shows,
so I got to finish those first.
Was there a new Black Mirror out?
Yes, there is.
Oh, man.
Yes, yesterday.
Yeah.
I have not watched it.
There's a lot that just dropped.
Like, frigging G20 just dropped.
I still need to see that.
Nice.
All right, so we'll talk Black Mirror.
I'll go first.
I'll get it out of the way.
Because you haven't seen it, right, Philip?
No.
All right.
So I saw the first episode, which is called Common People, and it's got Chris O'Dowd in it, the sometimes funny Irish actor.
And it's, I'm going to try to say a little bit without spoiling too much.
It's kind of funny.
Like, it's almost like these things are becoming more of a reflection of society than ever.
Because this guy, how do I say it without giving too much away?
His wife has some health issues, so he signs up for an experimental.
high-tech thing to solve his problem.
But there's problems like she has to sleep 12 hours out of the day
because that's when the servers are down.
Then you find out that if they want to do certain things,
they have to buy the upgrade, like the premium package and stuff like that.
So kind of making fun of the cell phone business.
Netflix kind of poking fun of itself a little bit there.
They've fortnighted reality is what they did.
Yeah, dude, if you get the common version,
Your marriage is made up of micro-transactions.
Yeah. And you start, like, every minute you start spouting ads that are, like, focused toward whoever's close to you.
Oh, man.
It's pretty funny. I don't want to give too much away, but it's funny. It's worth to watch. Black Mirror, Season 7.
Looking forward to it.
All right. I got a couple this week. I finally checked out on Nora.
And not bad.
I missed a little bit of the first half of it, but, like, this Russian mob guy comes in,
and they're, like, looking for her idiot husband, a brand-new husband.
Oh, yeah.
And it turns into kind of an adventure story, and that part's a lot of fun.
There is a lot of, like, really raunchy stripper-esque scenes.
But that's about as far as that really goes.
but I liked it
I wasn't bad
I don't know
I don't know if I picked it for best picture
but
yeah
it's a stretch
right
I say that every year
um
and then I also
I guess my real cool
of the week
is a movie that came on
after I watched
the Howling 5
and it was
it just sort of rolled into the next movie
you know how Tooby does
oh yeah
and uh
and this
this movie was called
uh
the beast must die
it was a it was a 70s
werewolf money
a werewolf movie but it was like a
who done it but you have to guess who the
werewolf is and it is
very obvious about it it states it right up in front
in the credits like that is the game here
there's even a werewolf
pause for like 30 seconds in the movie
where it asks you to guess who the
werewolf is
and uh oh man
I say were a wolf.
It's actually more of like a big dog.
Yeah, it's 70s.
Okay.
So like when you, because they show the werewolf, but it's like, just a wolf.
You know, like, I don't know about werewolf.
But aside from the terrible special effects and the really awesome music,
I kind of loved it, man.
This movie sucked me in completely.
It's definitely worth the watch.
It was great.
He's got like kidnaps people on an island or some shit.
Oh, fuck, man.
The beast must die, huh?
Yeah.
But kind of the same concept as the Howling Five.
Yeah, I was going to say, he sounded really similar.
Yeah, but like.
Are werewolves with him, right?
But better, right?
Better.
Yeah.
Oh, Peter Cushing is in it.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Peter Cushing's there's a few people in there you've seen.
Calvin Lockhart.
Charles Gray.
Okay.
It's kind of an all-star cast.
I don't know who any of these.
Michael Gambon.
I know who that is.
They're all like old school actors.
When they come on the screen, you'll go,
oh, wait, I knew that guy.
Yes.
And that's what I got.
That's my cool of the week.
Okay, so Brian said he's going to go last.
So I'll jump in and say that,
Well, this week was my 14th wedding anniversary, so that was a...
Congratulations.
That's my cool of the week, for sure.
It's a testament.
It's hard to keep...
It's hard to keep anything going for a fucking year, you know?
Oh, yeah.
That's not how long we've been together.
That's just how long we've been married, you know?
But as far as what we watched, we actually, for our anniversary, we started watching
the third season of Yellow Jackets, because it's all out now.
We can finally binge it all, you know?
That shows fan.
It's really good. I just I can't really give it a complete rating because I'm not done with it yet, not the season yet. So and there's weird because there's characters in like present day that are dead, but they're alive in the past. So you're like, it's just kind of weird going back and forth. But that's really good. But my cool of the week's definitely going to go to a show that we watched the trailer for on this show. And I'm pretty sure Brian's going to talk about it. So I wanted to wait for my end of mind to bring it up at the bondsman with Kevin Began. 100% my cool of the week. I've been with all of it. And we've done with all of it. And,
one day, very easy to do, very short.
Every episode's like 25 minutes and there's only eight of them.
It's a four-hour show.
Which thing is that on?
Amazon.
Kevin Bacon.
Amazon?
Okay.
Yeah.
Evan Bacon.
My only critique of it is that there are only 30-minute episodes.
You kind of want more.
Mm-hmm.
And it's like the episode's going and you're enjoying it and then it's over.
Yeah, I guess that's the only negative thing for me.
is that it was over in one day because it was it felt very much like it's demon of the week shit you know
what i mean every week every episode there's a new demon to fight and a new case to crack and then
kind of there's the overarching story that goes but when it starts he gets that fax and then he's got
to look at the details and his mom's fucking on the phone okay hub this one likes the water you know
and it's it's it's that sounds fantastic i love it's it's really really good there's a lot of
It reminds me a lot of Ash versus Evil Dead, just the style of it.
Funny, but also, like, there's some heart to it and very, very gory.
Hard R on the gore.
I mean, Chapman-Bacon literally kills the guy with a chainsaw to the face, and you hang on there for quite a bit.
And then they go back to it afterwards and show you the aftermath.
So it's not afraid to show you anything crazy.
And it's very blasphemous.
They do ungodly shit in churches.
Oh wow
So yeah
Bondsman has to be my cool of the week
Highly highly recommend the Bum
Alright is that all
Yeah it's it for me
Okay I'm gonna start with my movies first
I saw a Minecraft movie
Oh I saw that too
I forgot to mention it
I'm sure you did
You had to see it Philly
Yeah
The most stupidest dumb shit I've ever seen
But I have to say
I didn't hate it
I didn't understand
anything that was going on.
Well, I wouldn't go that far.
But I will have to say my daughter did not like it.
And she's the Minecraft fan.
She didn't understand why some of the things were going on.
She didn't like the casting of a Jack Black as Steve.
Steve, sorry.
Oh, man, we had like a whole giant group of teenagers in there
that was like clapping and like more than a Marvel movie clapping and cheering for this yeah
yeah it's a it's a thing now that's like a cultural phenomenon man yeah like yelling specific things
out they're waiting for scenes and they all like throw their popcorn in there's the chicken jockey scene
that's when people start getting up and riding on each other's shoulders one one i saw a click today
is that what the kid's me older out of the baseball game i was like ah dude i don't know what that is
saw a clip today, they were like,
somebody released a live chicken in a
theater on Facebook.
Let it go in the chicken joc.
Like, cops are getting called.
There's like people putting,
theaters putting out warnings,
like, A, don't fuck around on the chicken jocs.
It's pretty crazy.
Yeah, what else?
What else does I see?
I saw a working man starring Jason State.
That's fine.
I wanted to see that one.
Oh, so bad.
If you've seen the beekeeper, you've seen this movie.
Oh, okay.
Or the mechanic or...
Yeah.
Any of the above.
Any other, insert job title here.
Let I'll tell you.
This movie was so boring.
I can't for the life of me tell you what the end was.
Oh, no.
I forgot the end.
You got a new job.
I sure remembered some of those over-the-top villains.
It's like the most fucking over-the-top, unbelievable.
but just like
Yeah
So that's kind of what the beekeeper was
I was pretty disappointed with that one
But the beekeeper had the entertaining characters
This had the most bland
True
Oh no
It's like they redid
Like Steve said
They redid the beekeeper
Except they changed the occupation
And they took the fun
Well that's the thing
That's the MO
The Hollywood Jason Jetham model
Is
Make the beat
Make a movie
With an action movie
where he is a blank, a working guy.
Put in a working.
So that's what they did.
They made this movie.
They were like,
okay, he's going to be a working man.
We just got to figure out
what job it's going to be,
something in construction.
But then they forgot.
It's just the working man.
Because they forgot to put the fucking...
If you remember,
if you remember the,
what was it, the Meg 2, Brian,
where he was an ocean social justice warrior?
Yeah, but that I didn't give the fuck
because he's kicking a megalodon
in the damn.
head.
This one, I couldn't even tell you
one action scene that stood out.
They forgot to do the rest of the movie
and it's just like him building a house.
How does that,
how does a 48-year-old
ripped British
fucking former spy get hired on
into a construction site?
Like, I just don't understand that.
How shit.
And they get into his backstory.
He's a former
insert
special ops.
military, ranger,
Marine,
whatever you want to put in the blank.
And then there's always a scene
where he commits a fucking crazy felony
against some random person.
Like, it's a bad guy,
but like,
you know,
to anybody else in the world,
there's just some random guy
that gets destroyed by him.
And everyone laughs about it.
And he's like,
shh,
don't sell anything.
It's all right, you know?
It's ridiculous.
It's like,
he knows where to go
to finish the job.
But he goes
and does all these,
like random grand theft auto missions
side missions
that's a good point they always he always
has a great sense of direction like I'm working in the same
building for months I still get lost you know
but he's walking into a warehouse taking down tons and tons of
bad guys knows exactly which whole way to turn down
you know which way to stop thoughts
fucking great
so those those are my non-horror movies
my horror movies I checked out you guys remember
watched the trailer for my bloody accent
wound.
Absolutely.
Yeah, with Negan in the
Kenya, right?
They're like,
it really reminds me
at Leslie Vernon
where...
Oh, okay.
The villain is a real person.
He actually kills people,
and it comes out as a
slasher movie on videotape.
That's pretty cool.
The movie follows the
daughter wanting to take his place,
and she gets the opportunity,
but she gets a little too close
to the people that she has to take out.
And I kind of actually ended up liking it.
That sounds pretty good.
I think it would make a good double feature with Leslie Vernon.
Very cool.
Makes sense.
Yeah, I can see that.
Yeah, it's like a family of serial killers, right?
Yeah, pretty much.
And then I also checked it.
That one's on Shutter, and then I came around this one on Shutter,
825 Forest Road.
It's made by the director of,
Hell House LLC.
Okay.
I like the first one.
I didn't really care for this one too much,
but if you liked that slow burn
supernatural haunted house
stuff that he does with Hell House,
I think this will
kind of hit that mark for you, but
didn't really work for me.
It was a little too slow burning.
But watch that.
Checked it out.
Yeah, it's on shutter. Why not?
Yeah, and TV shows.
Steve already mentioned the Bondsman.
And I also checked the more.
I'll make it my cool the week since he did the Bondsman was the residence on Netflix,
Murder Mystery Show.
Okay.
Great cast.
Like residents, like a residence or like a group of people, residents?
A residence.
It takes place.
A murder happens at the White House.
Ah, okay.
And they shut down the White House.
So the residents.
Gotcha.
Yeah.
And they bring in this detective, which is played.
I can't remember the actress's name.
She played Crazy Eyes on Orange and Blue Black.
Okay.
AOC?
Just call her crazy eyes.
Yeah, okay.
She did a great job.
She was funny, quirky.
She, you know, the little detective things where nobody understands what they're doing on in the residence.
Yes.
It has Randall Park and Jean Carlo Esposito and it has Steve.
He's in everything.
Yeah, yeah.
There's a bunch of like, oh, I've seen that person on Superstar.
Superstar is fantastic.
All their actors are.
But it has a...
Superstore is kind of great.
It has the whole lineup of people that pop up, and it takes place over a night.
Because she gets there, she kind of, it happens at, like, state dinner at the White House, and she shuts it down.
Nobody can leave.
Interviewing everybody.
Hugh Jackman's there for some.
fucking reason.
What?
It's fucking Hugh Jackman?
It's not really...
What are you doing?
It's not the actual Hugh Jackman
because they just always seem to show him
from behind or you hear his voice
in the background.
Oh, and then like at the very end he turns around
and it's a bit then.
It's kind of like the setup.
It sounds like the setup for Paradise a little bit.
But with a comedy band, right?
Murder in the White House.
Yeah.
Yeah, me and my daughter, we really dig the murder mystery shows.
So we binge that on, I think, two days.
Did you like that one with Will Arnett that he did on Netflix where, like,
everybody was acting except for, like, the random person that joined the show that week?
I haven't seen that one yet.
It's like Jason Bateman was on one.
Beast Mode came on one.
Yeah, martial much.
Dude, those are really funny because they're murder mysteries,
and there's, like, a whole gun of fact.
and there's like characters that go all throughout but there's whoever is the guest
star for that week has no script but everybody else has a full script so they're just like
sitting there trying to play off of what's going on it's really funny it's super gimmicky but
it's like for a few episodes it's kind of great okay yeah that's oh and I saw the
studio on Apple TV Plus Seth Rogan right yeah comedy it's fine if you
if you like
it's fine
because he
gets a job
as a studio head
and it's kind of him
bumbling his way
through decisions
that come
with being a studio head
like the first episode
um
what's his name
Walter White
Brian Cranston
Oh Brian Cranston
Yeah Brian Cranston
hires him
because he says
Seth Rogan says
he can get
the
A Kool-Lade movie made
because Brian Cranston wants a Kool-Aid movie.
Jesus, right.
And somewhere along the line he talks to Martin Scorsese
who wants to do a Jonestown movie.
Perfect.
Yeah, so he gets the idea there was Kool-Aid in that.
Right.
Let me trick him.
Let me trick Martin Scorsese into doing a Kool-Aid movie,
but not tell him that it has to be about Kool-Lade.
And let me tell Brian Kron.
Cranston that I got Martin Scorsese to do a Kool-Aid movie.
Oh shit.
And it's kind of stuff like that.
That sounds good.
That sounds pretty good.
Yeah.
Can we get Scorsese to do a Jones Town movie just on a side note?
Because that sounds awesome.
Yeah, that feels like a movie that has, I mean, I know they've made like made for TV
ones and they've done some very big reenactment, you know, series and the sacrament.
Don't forget the sacrament.
Yeah, but that was a shoestring budget and not, not.
I'm talking about.
like a really good biopic
like a
yeah big budget
go all out
because there was some high drama
there at the end like gun fights and fucking
planes taking off and all kinds of weird shit
going at the end like it was a straight up action
movie with mass murder at the very end of that story
too
you know it's Scorsese you know it's gonna have like
Leonardo DiCaprio or
Matt Damon or somebody
well Leonardo DiCaprio
will have to play the guy right like the main guy
with the glasses what's his name the fucking
the cult leader guy, he'll have to play him.
He'd be great.
Jim Jones.
Jim Jones.
He'd have to play.
He would have to play.
Leonardo DiCaprio is Jim Jones.
He's already got, he's got, he's getting older.
He's got the body for it.
That's true.
Yeah.
That's true.
Yeah.
Kool-Aid land instead of candy land, huh?
But that's all I got this week.
So what, so what has the title, Brian?
I'm going to go with the residence.
And you saw the bondsman, too, right?
Yeah.
Oh, I recommend the Bondsman 100%.
Where is the resident streaming?
Netflix.
All right, I'm going to check it out.
Okay, so do we have any headlines this week, Ryan?
We got some since, I don't think we did news in like a couple weeks.
We got some casting news for Lee Cronin's The Mummy movie.
May Calamey.
I think she was in
Steve, what's the, Moon Night.
Oh yeah, she was the other, the actress
that was opposite.
She got powers at the end of that show.
Yeah, I'd never finish it.
I tapped out of Moon Night.
I finished it, but I finished it
like begrudgingly.
I finished that show with my arms folded.
I was pissed.
Because here's what happened to Brian.
You know what you missed at the end?
Fuck it. I'm a spoiler.
You know when you missed it then?
Big fight's about to end.
happened fucking you know what's his name
Ethan Hawks got powers in his sandals
and he's fucking flying out you know and he's flying towards
Moon Night fucking fucking
we're going to fist
the meat screen goes to black
and then New Night wakes up and the whole
fight's over because he blacked out
so you don't even get to see the whole fight
wow that's that's rough
dude they just don't
show it well
not too mad I tap out
thanks to the
thanks to the reviews by the geeks I haven't even
started the Acolyte yet, Steve.
Oh, you can, you know what?
You guys got to...
The worst story.
Best lightsaber action
and anything that Disney has put out.
In the Akelyte?
Some of the best
lightsaber choreography, best lightsaber
fights, it's good.
The story is hokey and
nonsense. But the action
is crazy. Like, I saw
a Sith guy fucking stabbed
a Jedi through the stomach, and then
Force pulled another Jedi
onto the blade.
Oh, wow.
I was like, holy shit.
That's kind of cool.
And then he, like, prison shanks another Jedi.
Like, he makes part of his lightsaber fall off, and it has a little blade.
It's like, bwant, yam, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like shakes him.
I was like, holy crap.
And that was, like, a main character, too, that got.
I was like, oh, no.
It's really good.
There's some, there's some hardcore shit in that show.
But it's, overall, it's the story.
It just leaves you want him more.
Let's see.
Summer H. Howell is in talks for the lead role of Mike Flanagan's carry, which is officially ordered from Amazon.
Is it a series?
Yeah.
More carry?
Interesting.
They're not remaking the movie.
They're adapting the book.
Okay.
So be a mini series then?
Isn't that what they try to do with the Chloe Grace Moretz one?
They tried to say, we were doing the book, not a remake of the movie.
Yeah, but then they remade the movie.
I know.
When I watched it, I was waiting for something new, and I just didn't get it.
Nothing, nothing new.
It was fine, I guess.
They asked at CinemaCon, they asked Jennifer, Caitlin Robinson about, I know what you did last summer.
Brandy is returning since it's a legacy sequel, she said, you have to watch the movie.
Okay.
They're going to show her on, like, it's going to be like one of those, like,
It's going to be like something on Jennifer Lovecuit's refrigerator, like a remember bot, you know, like she's got to be a theater thing.
And I got to go back to Carrie again real quick.
So it's going to be a series.
So that whole story is about her getting bullied by her parents and everybody at the school and everybody she knows.
And then she freaks out of then and kills a bunch of people.
So it's going to be like a whole season of just like watching this girl get hushed around, just knowing she's going to kill everyone.
I just feels like a lot of, like,
deprecation.
Like, you have to watch this.
But, yeah,
high school massacre is going to be like an entire episode.
Unless it's directed by the people that did Moon Night,
because then she'll black out before it starts.
Well, yeah, it's not a really feel-good fucking movie
until the end when she finally gets hers, you know?
Gets her revenge.
Mm-hmm.
But a lot of, a lot of positive word came out about,
I know what you did last summer
people got to see it at cinema con
see some clips
I guess
press the crowd there
it's
it's really that movie's
fucking ball to drop
you know if that movie's game to lose
all it has to do is like being an effective
fun slasher
with some you know member berries
from the 90s and if it does that right
you're you're a business
true
nobody is asking for an Oscar worthy
We just want something that doesn't suck.
I don't think anybody was asking for it to begin with.
Not really.
I think I read one comment of someone who saw.
They said it does what the Scream and Halloween legacy sequels couldn't do or didn't do or something like that.
What does that mean?
Not sure what that means.
It's a good movie?
It's getting good reviews.
Hey, it might be good, guys.
Let's be open to mind here.
third one, though. It has to ignore the third one.
Can't have that be in continuity.
It can't. To get a wreck, wreck on that.
I don't know what you're talking about.
I don't either.
Ghosts don't belong in the series.
Ghosts that kill people.
In Colorado.
The Last of Us renewed for season three before
season two even comes out.
I'm not excited about that.
Old of them.
I love the games.
I thought the first season was okay.
I thought it was okay.
I really enjoy it. I like the games. You get way, you know, there's just, the show just touches on stuff that the games just, it's not getting, and that girl is not Ellie to me. And I'm sorry, I love Pedro, but he's not Joel either. You know, like, there's, the casting is wild. And, like, they're, they're brushing over huge chunks of the game and then spending two episodes on something that never even happened in the fucking game. So I'm just,
Like, I don't know what we're doing.
You know, I don't know.
We'll see.
Well, and I've heard about the game, so, yeah, the second season might not go over as well as they hope it does.
Yeah, I'll say it's, it'll definitely be cheaper.
It'll definitely be cheaper to make season three.
That's right.
Go watch the Fantastic Four to get your fix, right?
Yep.
Let's see, Chuck Russell's Witchboard remake releases an office.
finally get a better witchboard movie.
We need to review that with Nez.
Well, it can't possibly be worse.
I reviewed that movie.
I tried three times.
Have you seen it three times?
I think we reviewed it.
I think, I know I was on the geeks when you guys reviewed it with Nez.
And then I think I reviewed it on Nez's network.
So I think I reviewed that movie three times.
And my thoughts have never changed on the movie.
understandable yeah
that movie is crazy isn't it
there's a sequel we did the sequel
too in us oh yeah oh yeah
I don't remember you guys doing that
I think there is three I remember you guys talking about that
yeah it's rough
stuff
let's see here
they should do it's TV series
of Whitsport
oh yeah that'd be great
15 episode 58 minute
episodes
this already sounds like
fucking straight to VOD movie.
It was a fucking four minute intro
with CGI statues and shit
and pentegrims, whatever you get.
I'm getting it the benefit of the doubt.
It's Chuck Russell.
Chuck Russell did.
Nightmare Nile and On Street 3, the blob.
Oh.
Nightmare on Street 3. You got me there, man.
That's like up there in my top
five horror movies of all time.
The best one. Yeah, a lot of people's top
five.
Let's see.
Steve,
played a deaf stranding
the walk-in simulator
with Norman Redis? Yes
yes
it is getting
a adaptation from A-24
and it's going to be directed
by a Quiet Place Day 1's
Michael Sarnovsky
now you might not like that movie Brian because you didn't
like Nevali Nature so
that's right so much
lots of walking
not nearly as much as Death Stranding
that's the whole that's the whole point of the game
the movie's about delivering the game the game's
about the mechanic of the game
is delivering stuff. I never finished it, so I didn't
get the whole story.
But there's definitely an overarching
story. It's a dystopian future.
Very cool setting.
And Norman Redis, they didn't
make that game that long ago, and that guy doesn't age
quickly. So he could probably just
play the guy really, really easily.
Just jump right in there.
And 824 is doing it. They're going to make
it creepy. It's got some creepy
visuals. But I think
this might be a fun
for A-24 because I think we talked about a while ago.
They said they wanted to do bigger, bigger movies.
Yes.
Well, I think, and they wanted to branch out a little bit.
They're doing that weird Ochi movie with the little creature.
That looks good, though.
I think that creature looks awesome.
Yeah, but I think that's kind of watching the trailer.
I felt like that's the only thing you're going to come out watching the movies
and the creature looked awesome.
That's about it.
That's kind of all I want.
I don't really need much more anymore.
You know, my bar is low.
the drag that we've been getting
is like
is it that function
okay we're good
and lastly
Stephen King's
the long walk
gets a release date
of September 12
in theaters
yeah you're excited
about that
yeah yeah
yeah it's one of my
favorite novels
that that's one of the few novels
that I was like
I was in tears
at the end of it
so depressing
Any cast videos on there?
A Dane DeHan cast in the movie?
I think they've already
I think this was another thing they showed at cinema con
that I think people got excited for.
Who else would be on that movie
for Rances, Mount Rushmore?
Dane to Hans in there.
You've got to have Wyatt Russell
from Knights of Fame face.
He's got to be up in there.
I know it does star
Mark Hamill.
He's going to be the general guy.
He's going to be the general.
Yeah, definitely.
Definitely. Perfect casting. Perfect casting.
I don't know who else is starring in it, and I don't feel like looking it up.
Probably all the kids are stranger things. All the kids are strangers things, I'm sure.
But they're all going to be 30.
There's a lot of cinema con news, a lot of trailers shown that didn't get released to the public, so we'll just wait.
People got to see the Black Phone 2 and other trailers.
Yeah, that was a lot
I liked the Superman stuff
I'm still excited about the new
Yeah, I'm excited too
I'm not gonna hate on it
Until there's something to hate on
I haven't seen the movie
So I'm fighting an uphill battle
With my show
Yeah
I'm the only one
I'm like
I'll stand here and say that I'm excited
I've seen Sean's kind of left you alone
On that one
Yeah
He's trying to get hired by Disney
You know what I mean
It's picking his fights
Oh, I got you.
It's some politics going on, huh?
All right, that's the news.
All right.
Steve, you ready to go with us down to the trailer park?
Yeah, let's go.
Let's go.
All right.
Brian is going to bring us the big, the small, and the very, very weird.
What's the first new trailer tonight?
First one we're going to talk about is bring her back from the Philipu brothers who did talk to me.
what a couple years ago now
sounds about right
this one is a horror mystery thriller
and the synopsis is a brother and sister
uncover a terrifying ritual
at their secluded home
of their new foster mother
what did you guys think of bring her
back
creepy imagery in the trailer
a lot of like
quick cuts
stuff that you're like
that's gonna be fucked up
when you get to that part of the movie you know there's there's some weird shit that I saw in there
but I really like to talk to me I didn't get much out of the story other than maybe like a this
lady has lost her daughter and she's trying to bring her back but uh that's about what we got and
I like talk to me so I think this one's giving me good vibes good hope for this one yeah I'm kind of
the exact same thing you just said like looks interesting I'll definitely watch it
you guys ready to talk to me pretty highly right yeah yeah yeah yeah I'll definitely check this one out
they won me over with their with their movie you know first time first time directors and they knocked
it out of park in their first one yeah I would love to get didn't NECA release like that hand like
you can buy the hand yes oh yeah that's fucking cool you buy with the the DVD right yeah it's
sold out like within it really quickly yeah yeah and real quick I should probably shouldn't
mention horror news.
They have two scripts written
for the sequel to talk to me.
Okay.
Oh, they're going to do a sequel.
Yeah, but they said due to
commitments, other commitments
and projects, it'll probably be a while
before that sequel comes out.
All right.
It's what happens, man. You'd make a banger and you get
scooped up and you can't get back to the
movie. Yeah, I got excited
when they got announced to do the new
Street Fighter movie. Because I've seen
some of their...
They're a lot on their place.
Their stunt work videos, but they dropped out of that
because of the commitment.
Damn. Oh, okay, so they won't
be doing that then. Yeah.
Yeah. They're getting there.
They're getting closer. Like, that new Mortal Kombat
movie was the best Mortal Kombat movie, but...
It was good. Yeah, it was really good, man.
I don't know. Really good.
I think that's about Max, right?
It was on Max, one of the first of the movies
after... The Seen where...
Where that one dude rode that lady into the spinning hat?
That was fucking cool.
But that was kind of it.
Luke Kang was like nothing.
I might be misremembering.
I didn't like the new guy.
Because he should have just straight up turned into Scorpion.
That should have been his power.
And then he didn't.
He just turned it.
The villain from Cobra Chi?
Oh, yeah.
He had like gold, like, bandage armor was his power?
I was like, this is dumb.
I know your favorite part is when Jack's baby robot arms grew into big robot arms.
At least he had robot arms, you know?
Yeah.
I mean, Jack's in the second movie, I guess, did have robot arms,
but we don't talk about Mortal Kombat Annihilation.
That's a...
He had robot gloves because he grips him off at the end.
Robot gloves.
He does rip him off.
He's like, uh, uh, uh.
Oh, man, I believe in myself.
I can do it myself.
He was, like, supposed to be like a soldier, and he was like,
oh, we're going to go up to his crib?
What the hell?
I was like, oh, man, what are we doing?
Oh, what are we doing?
doing and then they cast james remar as raiden
a little old huh
yikes
and then it was like they had like these shots
where like james remar would be on the screen and then it would
like cut back and you see some other guy in his clothes doing a bunch of flips and shit
and then it would do like another close up on his face when he spins back to the camera
and it just reminded me of like scary movie
when an affair like i'm gonna get you sucker oh my god
this is so good yeah i'm i'm looking for i'm looking forward to this man
movie guys. This cinematography
looks gorgeous, you know?
Like that swimming pool scene where the
kid is in the pool for some reason.
I'd talk to me. He was my favorite. He was bringing a swimming
pool back, man. That's it, man.
Anything with a swimming pool, it's going to be
in my top ten. This was ready for
summer, bro. He hates the winter. He was
deployed. I need pools.
I can't wait to get out to my pool.
All right.
I'm excited. I'm looking
forward to this one. This is my early
favorite for favorite film of the year.
It's got that creepy vibe to it.
And shit, they didn't do this wrong with Talk to Me, so let's see what happens.
This hits Theater's May 30th.
And also at CinemaCon, it was revealed.
The second secret predator movie was an animated anthology coming to Hulu,
and it's called Predator Killer of Killers.
This is also directed by Dan Tractenberg, who during the movie.
directed prey. I'm so fucking excited for this thing. Okay. The animation looks... So it's an anthology? Yeah.
You can see in the trailer it's there's a there's a shot in the trailers where he's like fighting samurai. There's like a World War II shot. There's a shot like in the 40s. It looks like like almost like, um, prohibition. Maybe the 20s like prohibition kind of cars driving around. And all the predators look different. Like the one fighting the samurai was like super agile and lanky. And then the other one like in the, there's a big ass one in, like in the, there's a big ass one in, like,
one shot so like that's really cool
I'm super excited for this shit
alien and predator always been my shit
I mean I'm not normally a huge fan of the animated
stuff but uh
it sounds pretty cool and the anthology thing
took me over the edge so I'll definitely watch it now
I'll check it out it's on Hulu but I'm not
I'm not always a huge animation guy either
some of the animation looked a little choppy to me
I love it
I'll watch it.
I'm sure I'm going to enjoy it.
I mean, obviously, the director knows what he's doing with the character.
So we'll give it a shot, man.
They pretty much handed this franchise over to him.
He's doing the Predator Badlands, which I heard at Cinemicon.
People got to see a lot of cool shit from the movie.
Yeah, they released a lot of details for it.
It sounds fucking awesome.
Did you know anything about it, Phil?
Did you hear anything about the new?
So it's like L. Fanning's characters, like, Teams.
up with the predator on some
dystopian planet
to like fight some other creature
I'm like I'm fucking ready for that shit dude
I love that
let's go
yeah I mean I
as long as they keep it
decent
and don't get too silly with it I think we're cool
I think the only one I haven't liked
was Requiem and even that movie
I have fun parts of it
I don't know I think that movie's
more funner than the predator
Oh, the Predator is really bad.
That's a really bad film.
Which one was that?
The one with Boyd-Holbrook.
Oh, yeah.
In Olivia Munn.
They get the special suit at the end, and he's like, what is he said?
That's mine bubble.
Yeah.
Oh, my, it's a predator.
It's called the Predator Killer.
I still enjoyed it, though.
But it's like, the whole armor looks like normal, but it's got like a big predator helmet,
so it looks like a bobblehead walking around.
Yeah, that's right.
It's terrible.
The predator.
The predators told them that this suit is called the predator killer.
So they call themselves a predator.
Ah, okay.
To be like, we'll give you a suit.
We call this the human killer.
I'll never rewatch it.
There's also, but there's, that movie got torn apart in post-production, right?
And Shane Black's been on record saying, like, man, they made me change some shit.
So, like, there's shots that have filmed things where there's predators in U.S.
military tactical gear fucking firing on other predators and shit.
Like,
there was a whole ass scene where predators were chilling with the U.S. troops
fucking up some other predators.
Like, I want to know what that was about.
I really want that.
No director's cut.
Part of that movie.
Instead, we got Olivia Munn running.
And running.
Jumping from stuff.
And being followed by her pet predator dog who got a lobotum.
me.
Oh, Lord.
A nice predator dog.
And then the child.
You know, you have to have Jacob Tremblay in there.
You had to have the boy.
So you have some sense of innocence.
Oh, the murderer, that he murdered those innocent people.
When he fired on him, when he put on the predator helmet.
Yeah, he did cause, like, he ended lives as a child.
All right.
Predator killer of killers comes to Hulu, June 6.
Yeah, wait.
And our final trailer is Mathrigan 2.0.
Not even really going to get into synopsis or anything.
It's Terminator 2.
Yes.
Ah, okay.
I got you.
And everything I've been saying has been right.
I see that.
Everything I've been reading is right.
They're making a hero.
It's Terminator 2.
The company made a new better robot that's trying to kill the girl.
So the first robot comes back as a good guy this time.
Right.
It's the same.
I'm like, I would just,
it made me just, I actually watched Terminator 2 after the trailer.
Like, I'd rather watch this.
This is a better movie.
It reminds me of all the Sony Spider-Verse movies
where all the bad guys are anti-heroes.
It's like Craven the Hunter.
Like,
Oh, Craying the Hunter.
Venom, Venom, sitting in a lobster tank.
I don't know.
I just, I don't know.
going on in this movie.
Why would you put Megan in a smaller...
Because everybody deserves a second chance.
Bullshit.
She murdered how many people in the first movie,
and she's told, if you show us that you'll be good,
maybe we'll upgrade your body.
No.
Yeah, because this thing can't lie.
Also, that first movie was like borderline,
weird with some of the dancing that that little doll was doing.
And now she's like, I want a bigger body.
I'm like, oh, so it's not going to be even more weird now, right?
Like, it's not going to, you know, I guarantee you they're going to do some more weird shit in that movie, man.
So.
Look, in Megan's defense, that boy in the woods had it coming.
She threw in front of the car.
You got a elastic ears.
Yeah.
That was the best scene.
It was.
That one at least felt kind of scary with her, like, looking up in it in the woods.
I was like, oh, man.
Yeah.
I don't know
I'm not sold on Megan 2.0
I'm not even either
I'm kind of more interested
in the spin-off movie that they showed
a cinema con the soulmate
yeah basically that
Megan Fox movie but
done in the
Megan universe
yeah that makes that makes more
sense this looks silly
like they
the shark yeah it looks like they
jumped the shark a long fucking time ago
and they're like jumping the brannosaurus at this point
man they're just fucking skydiving flying through mountains
at the end of the trailer they were in like tactical gear
fighting something you're talking about with the bob hair cut
they get yeah man
I'm like all right
I get I you know what I'll probably put it on
when that I'll get real fucking fucking high
and I'll put it on and like draw while it's on
and like I'll look up during the fight scenes
and that's about it
That's it.
There is a chance, though.
This movie could be so stupid.
It's entertained.
There's a chance.
There's a very strong fit.
All right.
Megan 2.0 hits theaters June 27th.
And that is it for trailers.
All right.
On to some listener feedback.
This week, we shone the podcast Spotlight on the Killer Point of View podcast, a mix
between horror movies and true crime.
Hey.
That's where I live. I like it.
In regards to April Fool's Day, Pat Caruso says,
I've been waiting to watch this one since Ammon and Pete did a commentary for it,
but I can't find it through any help.
You guys have a spot where it's available.
There's a spot where everything's available, but they usually toss those website things out online.
This one's on Shedder, though. This one's on Shedder.
AMC Plus or Shutter?
And if it's streaming anywhere, then it's definitely out there.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah. Hey, your show is pretty cheap.
Yeah.
Oh, with the yellow jackets, I just paid for the ad-on for Hulu, like the 1299 for Showtime and Paramount Plus.
I'm like, until I'm done watching it, I'd rather just have it there.
I could just push play and not have to worry about it.
Yeah.
That makes life easier than trying to search for every episode.
Let's see.
regards to the bondsman, Ash Kavanais says,
great show, thanks Kevin Bacon.
Also, how you got some music in there?
Don't know what that means.
Okay.
I guess cool soundtrack, maybe.
And his thick southern accent, too,
just drove home how much I want more tremors, man.
I got so mad watching that we didn't get that tremor show.
That'd be cool.
It ain't over till it's over, Steve.
Yeah, with that accent, it really does feel like bowel from tremors left perfection and went on to become a bondsman.
And his name is Hub. You know, it's like Val, Hub, like, it's these one-syllable names.
It's just perfect.
In regards to dangerous animals, Tim DeLine says, I'm watching anything from Sean Byrne.
The loved ones and the devil's candy were outstanding.
Okay.
Good stuff.
In regards to 28 years later, Eddie Vastag says
I'm guessing none of the survivors that were in the first two flicks
are going to be in this one.
Blah.
I don't know.
Probably not.
Is he in this one?
Yeah.
28 years older, huh?
He's in the movie.
Okay.
Brendan Gleason ain't his for sure,
but I guess he wasn't really a survivor.
Yeah, well, there weren't that many.
survivors, right?
Let's see.
In regards to
the Friday of the 13th series,
Nick Pristache says
I checked out
I checked out after part 7.
Though I believe I saw 8 and 9
in the theaters, Jason transformed
from a psychotic lunatic killer
Friday's up to part
4 into a Universal
Soul Studios monster style character,
i.e. he became like the Wolfman
or Dracula in part 6.
And the story
the storylines became more and more far-fetched.
Up to part four, you could almost believe it was a legit story that could have happened
if you ignored the fact that Jason had long hair in part two.
The stories really did have a general continuity and you could suspend disbelief.
Part six was fun.
It was a fun what-if scenario and part seven went into such an odd direction.
You couldn't help but like it as you couldn't help but like it as it was like there
were two supernatural forces
doing battle with each other.
But that is really where the story ended for me.
Hmm.
Everybody's a critic, huh?
Hey, put some thought in that stuff.
Did you miss out on Jason X, man?
Jason's in space?
Speaking of critics, I see you didn't put
the guy that called me the worst clickbaiter
of all time.
Nah, missed that one.
Look, I posted a story about
Andre Overdall, the guy who did
the scary stories telling the dark
Autopsy
of Jane Doe, he did it.
He finished filming an untitled Paramount
horror movie. That's all the
news. That's all the info on it.
He got mad because
I didn't give a release date,
a title. Our details.
I didn't explain who Andre
Overdall was.
Uh-huh. Yeah.
Why did you click on the story?
Exactly.
Wikipedia, fool.
Go to Wikipedia.
Everybody knows that
Comicbook.com is the most
Clickbaitie, sons of bitches ever.
I had to unfollow those motherfuckings now.
Everything's just, click here, click here, click here, like that.
Oh, yeah.
If you look on IMDB for this movie,
it says Untitled Horror Movie,
no synopsis, no release.
Well, there you get.
Well, we'll learn together.
That's all the news we got, man.
If the stories that we post from are Click Beatty,
that's not our fault.
Or maybe I'm...
Excuse you.
Sorry.
You know, have other news outlets.
I don't know.
You know, I tell people,
when so many gets mad at the geeks,
I'm always like,
you know you can get your news
from someone else,
like other than us.
Yeah.
It's just like a feature.
Just give us something to talk about.
I don't post about every story.
I just thought this was fun.
I mean,
I could have made up a synopsis in the title.
I mean,
if that works for you.
This guy's getting a lot of airtime.
I would have been reporting fake news then.
we don't want that
don't do that
all right
in regards to
grind house
David Barta says
death proof
is one of my
favorite movies
it is a pretty great one
yep
cat
what are you doing
all right
and in regards
to creep show
box creature
Mike J. Morin says
that was before he was
captured
all happy and stuff
showing about
out in the woods
in the picture
Like not in the, not in the crate.
Eddie Vastag says,
ha ha, what up?
What do you think?
What do you think this is?
The Friday night fights?
Just call me Billy.
Everyone does.
In regards to the Hell House LLC lineage.
Jerry Amix says coolness level is very high here.
Okay.
I think that's going to be the final one in that series.
Yeah, probably about that time.
In regards to Fantasm, Johnny Phoenix says,
What a movie.
Ted Cancel says great film series.
Yeah.
It's a weird one.
Well, the last one wasn't too good, but first couple were great, right?
Yeah.
I like, you know, on mute, Steve.
I knew that that was coming.
That comes at least once at times.
At least what?
I got to say it.
I don't even remember I was going to say now.
Doesn't matter.
It's all good.
I was saying, oh, Fantasm.
You said the first couple are great, and it starts getting weird.
I'm like, that's like almost every series.
Yeah, every series.
It's so rare that they, you know.
And they'll have one random one we're like, holy shit, that was good.
Oh, man, that's back to crap again.
God damn it.
X-Men did that.
I'm thinking of which in regards to Howling Five.
Oh.
Andy Kennedy says cheesy, but definitely one of the better ones in my opinion.
Okay.
We'll see if we agree.
From what I understand, we haven't gotten to the worst ones yet.
Oh, what?
What?
I hope we saw Steve's face in that one.
I keep, because there's clips of one I've seen that look absolutely horrible, and I can't.
keep thinking every time we
get to the next movie I was like this might be it
but I haven't seen any of these clips
in the movie so I think in the next
I thought this was it
they did a made for TV remake
or something right?
I think there was like a Western one
what
well
might be good
oh boy
who knows
oh man all right
continuity with the series there's no continuity
No.
Not exactly based on the novel.
In regards to five nights at Freddy's 2, Eddie Vastag says,
how would they have a second when they all got caught at the end?
That is a good question.
They escape.
They escape.
Come on, dude.
Because the movie actually did pretty well.
And believe it or not, for a PG-13 horror movie was, I thought it was pretty good.
Yeah, that was pretty good.
Go see the teaser for the new one?
Yeah.
Uh-uh.
It looked pretty good.
I'm all here for it.
Like, it's entry-level horror, and I'm okay with that because my kids can watch it and it's fine.
Yeah, unlike Minecraft, my daughter got excited.
Unlike Minecraft.
My son's the same way.
He wants to see Five Nights at Freddy's 2, but not, he has no interest in Minecraft movie.
Yeah, we watched the teaser together, and there was stuff popping up in the teaser.
She was like, she was recognizing stuff.
Mm-hmm.
Different characters.
Yeah, yeah.
All right.
Too old for Minecraft, it sounds like.
In regards to Hellboy, Pat Caruso says
Golden Army is better. Yeah, I said it.
Okay.
And then what?
Golden Army's better.
I think the original, the first Hellboy.
Golden Army had a bigger budget and it was more,
like it had more stuff to do.
Yeah, it was more fun.
But that first movie was
fucking twisted.
The first one was dark.
And you had the
good thing about that first one
is you had Myers.
You had that guy
that was kind of new to everything.
The guy and the second one
they said got shipped up to my state.
Yeah, because they were like,
who cares?
Oh, that's right.
We don't need to explain the story anymore
so we don't need an audience fucking surrogate.
You got shipped to Alaska
so you'll never see him again.
That's right.
Middle of nowhere, bro.
That first movie was like a
Like, I saw that in the theater, and I didn't even know what to expect, and it was just so good.
And that second one, Golden Army, is really, really good, too.
I liked it a lot, too, yeah.
But the David Harbor one was garbage, and so was that Cricket Man one.
So was that.
I still haven't seen it.
Oh, you don't need to.
That one makes the David Harbor one not garbage anymore.
True.
In comparison, the David Harbor one's not garbage.
It's just, you know what it is?
They redid the first hellwood.
They did the whole
intro again, the whole freaking,
oh, this is when the Hellboy came into the world.
And I'm like, we already saw it.
It was way better than the hell wrong,
Colonelman.
Kind of like the Spider-Man.
It felt like one of those like cheap reenactments.
And I was like, oh, man,
like previously on.
Yeah, I know, but.
All right.
In regards to Mithrigan 2.0,
Anthony Allen, Jr.
Long one.
He says,
I did get some laughs out of this trailer.
Don't get me wrong.
It does look like a lot of fun.
But yeah, I don't know how I feel about this,
as I'm not a fan of the whole anti-hero angle they're taking with the Megan character.
I also love the first movie, a fun horror,
that not in any way, shape, or form meant to be scary, nor taking seriously, but just fun.
I know many people are saying they're ripping off Terminator 2,
which, yeah, I can totally see that, too, 100%.
personally i wanted this to be a mix of child's play to and cult of chucky
uh where she gets revenge on katy and jemma and uh makes more of her multiple megans but no
instead we get this terminator two knock off with a heroic megan okay then i guess
great well said yeah that was more feedback from that listener who was that
uh anthony allen junior anthony alan june
I don't think we've had feedback from him before.
Okay.
And let's see.
In regards to the rule of Jenny Penn, Tina Larson says the strangest movie, but I couldn't stop myself from watching L.O.L.
All right.
Never.
I haven't seen that one.
No, I haven't either.
It's not shutter.
Okay.
Like I said, like I said last week, neither you're going to love it or you're going to hate it.
In regards to the Terrifier series, David Ramos says, trash.
Trying to be all gore, but it's stupid as hell.
Only one clown.
I love that, I love that's Captain Spalding.
This show can't compare just straight, stupid.
Also, we'll just have to agree to disagree.
Yep.
And that's it for listening and feedback.

This week, we've got more howling.
Parts 5 and 6.
God damn.
I don't know how many of these there are.
We didn't make them, Lance.
Gosh.
We'll start with the Howling 5, the Rebirth.
Howling 5.
The After.
From 1989.
Where was with them?
A group of strangers visits an ancient Hungarian castle
and bring along a werewolf.
Is that really what happens there?
I don't think that's...
Sure.
All right.
Director is Neil Sunstrom,
also known for Dead Easy and Slash.
Never heard of either of them.
Writers are Clive Turner,
Freddie Rowe, and Gary Brandner.
The bus...
Writing by committee.
Always a great idea.
The bus taking the visitors to the castle is a Koss Borher, Cetra S-28, who nobody gives a fuck.
And Malib.
Who wrote this trivia?
Former Hungarian airline livery.
What?
This bus or the other one or two of two is preserved at the aeroplane.
Park Museum.
Who cares?
Okay.
Well, you can go see the bus
from the Hall of Five.
The Air Park Budapest Museum.
Before we even start,
that trivia tells you
everything about the movie.
That's the trivia.
It's about the bus.
In case you wanted to see it.
Steve,
you're going to start us out
on the Howling Five?
Yeah, that's what sucks.
This movie is...
I hated this movie.
I hated this movie.
I was getting mad that I was still awake while I was on.
I was just like, man, I don't, I did not.
I was bored to tears.
There's no werewolves.
You see, like, some fur, like, throw in front of a hole in the wall sometimes.
And there's some weird growls.
You see the cover image of a wolf face.
You see that once.
And then, uh, that's about it.
Uh, no kills really on screen.
I don't even remember seeing that cover wolf on there.
I was like, wait a minute.
Blinking, you fucking miss it.
Yeah.
You blinked.
That werewolf wasn't even in this movie.
You probably sneezed or something and fucking missed the whole shock.
But it's trash.
And then the end, it's like, who's the werewolf?
That person is because there's a howling set.
They didn't even make her eyes glow.
How cheap is it to color with a fucking highlighter on the film reel?
Like, they didn't even make her eyes glow.
Like, come on, man.
Fuck this movie.
This movie is boring.
It was.
No, it was.
Somebody made a whodunit.
And they were having a hard time.
finding the money to get it made and they're like you know what we can just throw a howling title on it
make it part of this franchise throw a little howl sound at the end and we're called it good
they got somebody to give them a couple hundred thousand dollars and then they were off to the races
yep i think he's nailed it zero as far as we're geeks rating zero moving on
that's a little rough well we don't have a 10 tier system like you do ours is only five
so zero is not quite a zero for you i was just saying for the geeks rating no no no i get it
I get it. I get it.
Understood.
Yeah, actually, Philip did give Black Christmas a negative 10.
The remake?
The remake? Oh, that was really fun.
We gave that a zero.
Lance, what did you think about this one?
I'm totally in agreement with Steve.
This was just boring as hell, man.
And I kept thinking, yeah, like, I didn't know about this movie.
You were talking about Philip killed the, or the Beast Must Die?
That sounds like the best version, and that was, they did it first.
Oh, it was way better.
All I could think about was that werewolves within, and then what's the game?
Is that werewolves within the people play where you have a piece of paper,
and one of them's the werewolf and the others are villagers.
I think it's just called it's a werewolf, actually.
Okay, well, that's fucking, I guess, this inspired that, or did that come first?
I don't know.
Well, I'm sure the beast must die inspired all of them, right?
But, I would, so I, when I looked it up on IMDB, there's actually,
like a 50s version of
a movie called The Beast Must Die.
I don't know if it's the same thing
and it's a remake or what.
Oh, wow, okay.
But the one I was watching was from like 74, I think.
Yeah, great, great, great year for film, man.
I mean, some good shit coming out, Hammer and all that.
Yeah, the characters were fucking silly.
What was that?
The guy that was the count or something like that
that was taken through the castle and
it made no sense right i didn't really get his character they all had that mark
earth mark or the mark of the beast or they didn't explain anything like and then like he wasn't
even a bad guy i'm like why did you even bring all these people like why did you do this like
you know how this could all been avoided if you didn't do any of this none of this would have
it's like you didn't have to bring any of these people well he said he brought everyone there so
he could isolate and kill the werewolf right and that's like the one that was the one that was
The war wolf was the final girl.
So your plan is to just bring.
Your plan is to bring everybody here and let the werewolf kill everyone and then you.
Like, come on, man.
Not smart.
Not smart.
Well, and then the only reason that you know she's the werewolf in the first place is because she winks at the end.
And that's it.
Yeah.
No teeth, no fangs, no eyes, no nothing, right?
No hair.
You didn't even give her like the, you know, the fucking little dollar teeth you get that you put it in.
The little plastic ones, a little vampire feed.
You could have thrown those in her fucking face.
Oh, man.
Yeah, this is a hard pass for me, guys.
And there just wasn't any kookiness.
Like, all the movies have, like, some weird shit going on.
Like, what the fuck was Anna?
The next episode does, yeah.
Oh, yeah, they go back to form.
But here, it's just boring.
There's just nothing happening.
It's just following this guy with a terrible ponytail walking around stairs for 20 minutes.
I'm like, fucking, what are we doing?
Cut your hair.
I thought the same thing.
I was like, man, that doing really squeeze.
It's like really thin, gross hair.
Just cut it.
I got mad at this movie.
Brian, what did you think?
I feel 100% robbed of time in my life.
I contemplated why
I do a podcast.
I couldn't figure out
if this movie was the longest
movie in the Howling series
or if it was that boring
that it made it longer.
Probably that.
Everything was filmed in the dark.
I couldn't tell who's who, what was what.
That's a good point. Yeah, that's a good point.
Every time I think the werewolf was on TV,
they cut to a zoom into dark.
darkness.
Right.
And I'm assuming that's when somebody died.
And then you see their dead body.
They had that musical note, dot, dot, dot, dot, or whatever it was, that thing
that play.
Yeah.
Terrible.
That was all off the house again.
And I feel extra rob because this movie, I'm looking at Wikipedia, it starts in
1489 Budapest.
I thought we were getting a completely different setting medieval times.
I was kind of getting into it.
and then five minutes later we cut to
1989
and I'm just kind of
when you have the guy from
the Budapest yelling the baby
in English
Oh
Zim baby
And I couldn't tell
This movie was trying to be funny or not
Because
We've already talked about the reveal
Of the one girl being the werewolf
At the end
Yeah
The one that was the dumb actress
Or the one that said she plays
The dumb girl in the movie
Swedish actress
But she was a complete idiot
through the fucking whole movie
Yeah
Oh, let's not forget when they were like
Who could the Werewolf be?
They're all talking about it at one point
And they were like, how about Marianne?
They were like, no way, she's been asleep
since all this started.
Moving on.
I was like, well, she's definitely the fucking Werwolf
The one of you talking about.
Right.
So stupid.
Still, that's why I like this
The Beast Must Die movie
because they sort of do that
But it's like, okay, well, they're giving you an opportunity to guess as to who it is.
So they're going to at least be slightly obvious on, you know, who the werewolf is.
I mean, they're not going to give you the most obvious person, but maybe the second most obvious.
You know what I mean?
I'm looking at the poster.
I wish we'd seen this.
Where the fuck is the crib in this movie?
In the beginning.
Remember during the opening credits, they had that crib rock.
Oh, that was it?
That was the rebirth.
That was the rebirth, yeah.
I guess this movie's fucking stupid.
Yeah.
Yeah, I'm gonna, I'm gonna, I think exactly what Steve said.
This was just some stupid who-done-it movie, and they slapped a werewolf thing on it.
Because that's the only thing that makes any sense.
Because if you take out the 30 seconds worth of actual werewolf in this movie,
otherwise it's just people getting killed
off screen
yeah
not by the werewolf
somebody shoots another person
another person gets stabbed by another person
another person another person gets beheaded by another person
what the fuck is the werewolf doing at all in this movie
it's rowling like I said
they're throwing fur in front of the camera like this
like
yeah
pretty much
and then somebody's like ah
then you see somebody that
looking through a hole and the wall, go, oh, my God.
I'm like, what the fuck did you see?
Because I didn't see it.
I don't know what's going.
And why do you have a glory hole?
For real.
Full place is full of fucking, you know,
it's just the peep in Tom's Paradise this castle.
Yeah, I found,
a lot of the times I was looking at the scenery going,
is this a set or is this a real castle?
Right.
But that was about the extent of my interest in this movie.
it was pretty bad.
Definitely go watch the Beast must die because it's way better than this.
And it's not even very good.
It's still super silly and hockey, but like, but it's more fun.
Okay.
All right.
Score, Steve.
You said a zero.
Yeah.
I'm going to keep it.
I'm going to keep it my geek trading.
You know why?
Because it's a were-of movie without a were-of.
And here's why.
Normally I'll give it at least a warm.
on something, if there's like music that's good, not here.
If there's some actors that are trying, nobody gives a fuck here.
Like, nobody, nobody cared.
This was like a weird cash grab, and I'm not here for it.
There's definitely some actors trying in the next one.
We'll get to that.
So, zero, zero on ten.
I don't like this.
I'll never watch it again.
Lance, what do you think?
Steve makes a compelling argument.
I'm really thinking this three.
because I was thinking two at first.
I'm just trying to find a positive.
I'll go, I'll go with one.
I'll give it a point.
I'll give it a point.
But tell me, Lance, tell me what is the one for?
Is it because somebody managed to get something onto a film and release it?
I mean, that's a, oh, you know what?
It's better than Megan is missing or whatever.
What was, no, what was that one?
Not Megan is missing.
Oh, too, Jennifer.
Oh, God.
I'll give but a 0.5.
Just because
dude, Jennifer has to hold the title for zero
for me.
Brian.
0.25.
0.25.
Damn.
Your price is riding me like a motherfucker-in-law.
One penny.
Here comes Brian with a point.
Point-10.
No.
This is, this movie portrays the series.
The series has been weird
and wow.
khaki and kooky and just
crazy all around
this just betrayed the entire
franchise and
it is a zero
wow yes
this is going to be the opposite of
into the spider verse here fucking swinging
for offenses
man I don't know
what they're given now
you're usually the nice guy
phil if you can find
something positive to say because
to me I'm like I can't even say it's positive
No, Phil, you've been on your shit lately.
You've been more.
Yeah, that's true.
Go with your heart.
A little more of a stickler.
Well, I mean, I can't give it a like legitimate zero.
You can't?
Steve argue with him.
Come on.
Well, but I can't find a positive.
Not one.
Steve's argument about finding a positive in the movie is difficult.
Because even the boobs that were in it,
We're only in it.
Again,
as long as that werewolf was.
If you looked away for a second,
you missed them.
I were around to see if I missed something,
and I didn't.
All right.
I'll give it a one,
because I don't think it's deserving of a zero.
I don't know why,
but it gets at least a one.
All right.
But it is by far the worst one
that we've watched in this series.
So you like this?
So you like this more
than the Black Christmas remake?
Yeah, I'd watch this before I watched the Black Christmas.
Oh, yeah.
Me too.
I might not.
I might just try to fall asleep right before to end.
Yeah.
The Black Christmas remake.
This one put me to sleep.
The Black Christmas remake made me actively angry.
Make you vomit almost?
Like, what any fuck is this?
I'm happy to have helped bring about one of the lowest rated movies on the show.
Yeah.
There is.
I don't know how many zeros Brian's given out.
Did somebody in the comments say that that was the best one?
Oh, yeah, I think so.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, the rest of them are crazy, but I'd rather crazy than boring.
Any day of the week.
Speaking of which, on to the Howling Six, the Freaks from 1991.
A villainous carnival owner traps a young werewolf to include in his growing menagerie of inhuman exhibits.
Director is Hope Porello, also known for Critters, Critters Carnivores?
Critters, Carnivores, and Creatures? Is that the name of one movie?
I think so, yeah.
Okay, Critters, Carnivores, and Creatures.
If not, then that's, he's got like a type, you know?
Yeah.
Like that seething.
Writers are Kevin Rock, also known for Warlock, the Armageddon, and 1994 is the Fantastic Four.
Ouch.
Have you seen that one?
The Roger Corman one?
Was it amazing?
Was it a man who could fly?
No, I don't know.
We watched it for the film.
Warlock the Armageddon or the Fantastic Four?
Yeah.
I always wanted to see it.
I never have.
It's bad.
Remember the movie the boy that can fly?
From Disney, the boy who can fly?
Yeah, of course.
He plays Johnny Storm in that.
Oh, boy.
Well, that makes sense.
It's really bad.
I don't know if I remember.
Fantastic Four from 1994.
That's not the one with the...
It's really old.
With Captain America.
When Ben Grimm is a human, he's way taller than everybody.
But when he's the thing, he's way shorter than everybody.
Right.
He wears like a rubber suit.
A rubber...
Aren't this rubber thing.
Yeah, it's really bad.
Let's see.
Mary Lou from the previous sequel,
The Rebirth, my bad,
has a brief non-speaking cameo
as a circus audience member
in the beginning of the film.
Okay.
The makers of the next sequel,
New Moon Rising,
included a reference to it
in an attempt to connect the plots
of all the films.
Well,
somebody did care.
Somebody cares.
That's crazy.
Wow.
And those, I looked it up, those are the only two movies that she has ever done.
Ever, of anything.
The Helling 5 and 6.
No porn, nothing, huh?
Nope.
Not on IMDB at least.
All right.
Steve, what do you think of the Howling Six?
Well, like Brian said with the last one, at least you had some trivia here.
That gives you some.
And for this one, I was pleasantly surprised.
that the swing return back to form
of the Halloween series that we got here.
Now, I'm kind of torn
because the wear-off design is shit in this.
It's shit.
I don't like the fuzzy man.
It just looks like a fuzzy man.
It doesn't look like a wearable.
So I'm not a big fan of that.
But the transformation scene.
Transformation scenes were...
Yeah.
Listen, this movie has some pretty high highs for me.
I think the story's actually really interesting.
I don't know if it's executed that well,
but I think the concept is really cool.
they have some fun stuff
like with the British guy
and the preacher
like building the house together
like some fucking homework channel shit
Oh, that's right
With the music
The montage
Learning how to hammer a fucking piece of wood
Like how did you do any
Like you don't know how to hold a board up
And put a nail in it
Like he's like
Oh
And the British guy
He had like
He reminded me of Kevin Costner
From fucking Prince of Thieves
because, like, he was British sometimes.
Oh, definitely seeing the accent.
Yeah, like, he kept, like, forgetting he was British at times.
I was like, hey, wait.
And then he would remember it and he would come back.
I was thinking that, too.
I was like, is this kind of really British?
Yeah, and then the movie throws a fucking thing at you at the end.
You're like, holy shit, there's another creature.
Look, this movie has a lot going for it.
It's not executed that well, but I give a lot of praise to the attempts
and to the care shown on screen.
and I had a lot of fun with this one.
So I think this was a strong return of form.
And maybe it's just like the whiplash from the fucking upswing from the last one.
Like how can it be any lower?
And then you come to this and you're like, holy shit, because I watched him in order, you know, back to back.
One right after the other.
I was just like dumbfounded with this one.
How could this be?
It felt like it was the best movie I'd ever seen.
So in comparison to five.
So, yeah, I had a lot of fun.
Lance, what do you think?
this movie had
this movie had fly guy
I'm gonna get you sucker
fly guy was in this man
he gotta love that
and a midget
and a midget
and it had a fucking heeshie
before they started saying they
and it was
what you mean
villains
deep roy
villains
yeah it's freaking deep roy man
oh man
deep roy was great dude
little Indian midget
I gotta love
I like he was
Except in this movie he had a third arm
But that wasn't why he was in a freak show
He was in a freak show because he knew how to play cards
Oh yeah
He would hide aces with that third arm
That show was tough
He lit a cigar with that third arm
Handed it up to his other arm
It's like damn
He was fucking Dibroy had it going
He was a vicious little fucker
Not a terrible special power
Not a good movie
By any stretch of the
imagination. It's not when I'm going to go back and rewatch or anything like that. I don't know.
Maybe if I, I don't know, maybe put it on the background Halloween party or something like that.
But, I mean, it was interesting. And then basically you had a vampire at the end, right? I mean, it was like the nightfly. It looked like the nightflyer, right?
Kind of.
No, no, no. It didn't look like a nightfly. A little bit with the bad ears and everything.
It looked like the weird vampire, werewolf hybrid from the underwater.
world. He reminded me a son that was from like a nightbreed, like one of those characters from
nightbreed. Yeah, this was very nightbreedish. Yeah, this was super knightbreedish, right? Like with all
the freaks and the weird characters and all that. But yeah, I enjoyed it, man. It was fun.
And then, yeah, like you guys were talking about the little house, house, or church building
montage at the beginning. And they said, we thought you wouldn't have this thing done in a year. He said,
with this dude, we're going to have it done today.
British dude. It's like Jason State them all over again.
Yeah. So we've got to fix this place up. There's like seven boards and like a piece of
siding that had to get put up and that's it. They're done working really quickly.
We're done.
He's like, hey, look, here's my hot daughter. You want to stay and live here?
I was what I said. I didn't even put some wood up.
Oh man. Yeah, who wouldn't go for the preacher's daughter, man? That's got to be some Rick
press sexuality there, right? Just well,
waiting to burst free. So yeah, this is a fun movie. I had a lot of fun watching it. Not great,
but fun. Hot, innocent little blonde, can't go wrong. And I'm not a big blonde person.
Brian, what do you think? Who wanted to smack it? Who wanted to smack him when he was like.
I'm like, come on, bro. For the rest of us, bro. For the rest of us. Take one for the team.
Come on, man. Tell him to leave like that. Brian, what do you think?
I was pleasantly surprised we were back to form
I liked the addition of the freak show
you call him fly guy
Lance I call him Huggy Bear from Starsky and Hutch
oh my god you're right
there he is
we got Deep Roy in there
we got Bruce Payne
the villain from
passenger 57
oh nice
we got Montez
We got transformations
The sheriff was one of the
The gangsters from
Blood in, blood in, blood out
Oh, me!
Oh, no.
We were just doing random.
Going down the knowledge, man.
The score's going up.
Oscars going up, yeah.
I did admit, I had to, I didn't know
the Bruce Payne turned into a vampire.
Yeah.
Because he didn't look like a vampire.
I had to look it up to confirm.
was a vampire. Okay.
Because that, that seemed to just come out of nowhere. But I like the story that, that,
of the freak show and that they're putting them in the freak show. And oddly nobody was
alarmed at a werewolf in the freak show. It was a little weird, but it just kind of added
to the weirdness of the movie. Yeah. Yeah, true enough. Hey, small town, you got a freak show
coming to town, you got a werewolf. The cops seem to be really good with the freak
They're like, we're going to take this guy to the Frig Show.
And they're like, all right.
It's all good.
Yeah.
He walks in there and this guy's like locked up in a fucking cage and he just like
doesn't do anything.
Like, okay.
And I like, I like that the Frig Show guy, he, he, he's just so creative with his
names, you know, he's like, you'll be alligator boy.
He was like, yes.
Oh, I love that.
Harkens the vampire.
But it does end anti-climactically
because they defeat the villain.
He gets alligator boy.
He looks at the girl,
and then he walks into the desert with alligator boy credits.
To do what?
Where are you going with that unconscious boy there?
He's going to make a pair of boots out of him, right?
No.
I think...
A belt?
I think Steve's onto something.
Because he did refuse the pastor's daughter.
I know.
But he made sure to leave with alligator boy.
But you know what?
And that's the other thing, too.
Another reason to raise the thing.
Because even though the character does the bonehead move
makes the fucking preacher's daughter leave the fucking clock tower,
even though she made sure her dad was asleep and she told him so.
Even though the filmmakers were like,
like, yeah, but like let's show them anyways.
Like, let's show it anyways, like, as a dream secret.
So I was like, okay, at least you give us that.
That's cool.
That's cool, you know.
Live vicariously.
Just so you know that he wants to.
Yeah.
He doesn't want to leave with alligator boy.
But I didn't think it was funny when he likes, like, he's like marking everything meticulously about, like, when he's going to transform.
And then, like, he's sitting there one day writing and he's like, shit.
and he looks up
Full moon
instant transformation
I'm like he's fucking dummy
read the calendar wrong
I was kind of thinking that too
I was like
I'm like, come on man
I'm the shit playing
What are you doing?
You're really bad at this
It was really abrupt
but yeah
this one was
definitely more entertaining
they had
it took it a minute to get going
like the the beginning
I wasn't super interested
and then like
you know the camp
the whole montage of the
fixing the church and I was like
what are we fucking doing can we get to something
here
but they had
to set him up as the good guy because he's the he's the he's the werewolf but he's a good guy right you have to
know that and so i it works for character development i'll i'll give him that uh and then and then the bad
guy is the vampire right and so you have to have the battle i love the transformation scene
for the werewolf that was actually like surprisingly good um like the guy that played the
werewolf, I think actually did a really
great job. I mean, he had a whole lot of
overacting going on, but better
over than under. I like
the idea
of the talisman and the
incantation. Yeah, they could make him
transform at will with that. That was cool.
That was like a new twist.
Yeah, the whole movie was a little over
the top, so it sort of felt like it worked.
And man,
he was just like really selling it. Even with
like the bendy
bars of the cage that he was in,
Oh yeah, I noticed that too.
Rubber bars.
He like grabs one on the top and sort of swings across it,
and it bends real bad.
And I was like, boy, you like aren't going to cut that out or anything.
Maybe you're issued that.
Adds to the mythology, right?
So it was, it definitely had some silly aspects to it.
I thought the costume design was,
maybe not the best but the the the the special effects though I did I did kind of enjoy
like like I said the transformation scene they had the growing toes and all that
stuff and they did that really well it's just when he when he when he transformed he just
looked like a like a like a wrestler team wolf he looked like a teen wolf yeah he looked
like like from the Michael J. Fox movie but like not like he looked more like Jason
Bateman.
Yeah.
In the boxing one, yeah.
Fair enough.
Like, it was like,
it was like a teen wolf that wasn't
all the way transformed.
And he had his,
and they decided to put these stupid little,
like stilt things on.
So he had like little
dog feet.
It didn't make any sense.
It was weird.
Yeah, well, you know.
But,
yeah.
Oh, I, I, I will.
At least there was a werewolf in the movie.
Yeah.
It was a werewolf.
At least it was a werewolf.
At least they showed it.
And then they kind of went all out for the vampire thing, which, you know, was not my typical view of the vampire.
But if we're going to slap some costumes on some people, let's do it.
And the final scene with the fight between the werewolf and the vampire, I thought maybe could have been a little bit better.
But, like, you know, maybe draw that out a little bit more because you could make that really cool.
There was no budget for that, you know.
Yeah.
They spent it all in.
Apparently.
Apparently.
But it wasn't terrible.
Like, this one at least kept my attention, and it was actually really interesting story once they finally got into it.
It just takes half the movie to get there.
You guys want some trivia?
Oh, yeah.
Let's have some, man.
Let's have it.
kind of bus was used in this one, right?
Howling 6, the Freaks
marks the first time at Howling movie
has been shot in the United States
since the original one.
Oh, wow.
Georgia.
They didn't go to Budapest.
Yeah, this seems like a more American-ized
movie.
The first one filmed in America.
It's more American than Freak Shes.
But also the first one,
that's the main character is a British guy.
Yes.
That isn't really British.
So for some reason, they made him British, even though he could have just been like a guy.
So is he really not British?
Oh, I don't know.
It just felt to me like his...
I didn't look him up, but it felt like his accent was...
Yeah, it was sort of...
It was slipping, wasn't it?
Sometimes it was there, sometimes.
Because I found myself thinking that, too, I was like, wait, does this guy have an accent?
But then, like, maybe I'm just, maybe it's just me being like...
Oh, you don't sound British enough, bro.
Like, what the fuck?
Like, then we all sound super thick, you know?
He is from...
He's not talking about tea in pompousity.
It's not saying it.
He's from...
Not saying.
All right.
Scores, Steve, what do you think?
Ooh.
We're going to give part six of this series a seven.
Seven on ten.
I'm going to swing up to a seven
simply because I actually
I don't think that it was
like we talked about
the execution wasn't there
but I think that that's strictly
budget reasons
and you know you can only do so much
I see what they were aiming for
and I like what I was getting so
yeah it had a lot going on in this movie
they had a lot going on
no doubt
the vampire was I don't know if I
I liked the vampire design
either Phil but the fact
there was a vampire I was like
what the fuck
this is great you know
yeah it was like
I appreciate that they
for it.
Yeah, surprise.
So, yeah, 7 on 10 for me.
Lance, what do you think?
Five and a half.
I liked it more than I didn't like it.
It's not great.
But, hey, it was fun.
It was fun.
Brian?
I'm going to agree with Steve.
This is a 7, only because I watched it directly after I watched 5.
Oh, boy.
I'm judging this based on that night, that night's experience.
Like, hated.
Then I was having fun.
I'm going to go six on this one.
I had a pretty good time with it.
I think it was solid, especially compared to the last one.
I still think that I like the beast must die more,
even though there was no real werewolf,
and the special effects were terrible.
Like sometimes it was, sometimes it was like daylight in one scene on one character,
but nighttime on another scene on another character.
but they're in the same scene, right?
And it keeps splitting back and forth between one and the other,
and they're, like, talking or whatever.
And it's like night, day, night, day.
I was like, did nobody, like, notice this?
The golden age of film.
Yeah.
But, yeah, no, I give it a six.
I think this one, I had a pretty decent time.
this one, man. I would watch this again. I am not in any mood to watch the other movie.
Yeah, that's a fair assessment. That's a fair assessment. Steve, what are you guys doing at the
geeks lately, man? Oh, what did we do last week? We did a big cinema con breakdown last week,
talking about all the trailers, and that's when Brian saw when I got to try to defend Superman by
myself against an onslaught of hate. I don't get it. I think it's going to be good.
I know, I'm excited for.
But I'm also like really excited for Fantastic Four also.
Like even, and Sean's even like, I don't know.
And I'm like, bro, I can't fucking look.
That shit looks great.
I have a feeling Fantastic Four is going to suck ass.
Really?
I think the retrofuturism, I think that that whole aesthetic that they're going for
is the only way you can do Fantastic Four properly.
Fantastic Four can exist in our world.
It's too silly.
But it can.
in alternate 1960s retrofuturism silly-ass world
and it'll make sense there
and then when they bleed over into here they're going to be like
everyone's going to be like you're fucking silly and they're going to make some changes
you know so I can't wait for that movie I think it's going to be
awesome so I hope it will
I don't expect it to
and then uh
we're starting our 31 days
starting recording some stuff for that we always start really early
on that so
that's about it
oh we just did a movie called
pro mare for a Patreon review
an anime movie from one of our listeners
people are getting us to watch some weird stuff
it wasn't my favorite anime but it was pretty good
hey at least at least you guys
will do all of your 31 unlike
Brian and I that
that was a half way through the
31 days
I don't know man cried uncle or something
but we saw the movie
Brian was a hell of a commitment to something and I getting paid for
It was my fault.
October was a rough month for me, so I didn't have to record.
That's why we start in like March and April.
That makes sense.
We need to have like, we like to do some in October because it's the season, it's the time.
But like we need to have like 20, 25 done by October because we can't be, we've done it before.
We're recording five movie reviews in a week and it's like that we can't do that.
shit. Yeah, that's a lot. We've learned in the last 10 years to space it out quite a bit.
Yeah, well, hopefully whoever's making the Fantastic Four has learned from mistakes of Fantastic
Four's past, right? Oh, they won't. Well, I mean, it's not, it's not Fox doing it. Fox,
you know, Fox has been that butchered those movies. And not for nothing, like, those first two
Fantastic Four movies weren't great, but they weren't the worst. That was a really,
good Doctor Doom design and Johnny Storm
was awesome in those movies.
And chickless, I mean
he did what he could.
You know,
Joan Gruffield's Mr. Fantastic was
terrible. He reached under a door to get
toilet paper. That was one of his moves. Like, that's
not good. But, you know,
Chris Edvin's Johnny Storm was
hilarious. Like, he
got every chick
in that whole fucking movie's
universe. Like, they all wanted. As
happens.
He crashed landed on a ski slope on fire
And turned a big pile of snow
Into a hot tub
And chicks were dropping their fucking snow suits
To get into it with him
Like that movie's typed
Johnny's awesome
Johnny's throwing to fuck around
Dude
That's why I knew he said all that shit
In Deadpool Wolverine
I think the problem that they have
Is Fantastic Four is just a little bit silly
Well
Just by the
nature of it. I mean, you have
a rubber man.
Rubber man and an invisible woman.
Yeah. How do you find her
how do you find her G-spot?
It's going to be tricky.
It's going to be tricky.
They almost did it.
That's my eyeball.
Motherfucker.
That last
fantastic four movie that came out.
Who did that one?
That was with the
that Dr. Doom
ruined that movie.
Josh Trank. He did
that really good movie with Dane to Han
before that.
that.
Was it where he was a superhero, the found footage one?
Oh, that was a good movie, yeah.
That was a good one.
Then he got Fantastic Four.
That was good.
And guess what happened?
He's been on record, too.
Like, he is not the best director or, you know,
doesn't have the best, you know, stories about him either.
But Fox butchered that movie after he was done with it.
Yeah.
Re-shot a bunch of shit.
There's scenes where you can see where Kate Mara has a wig.
Because it was years after the movie was done,
and they brought her back to do extra shit.
It's like, that's not real hair.
Well, this, I don't know why you think that's going to be any different
for any of the other movies.
The studio keeps sticking their fucking grubby hands and shit.
Because it's Marvel, and Marvel's on an upswing right now.
You know, Deadpool Wolverine was really good.
Yeah, and Daredevil.
Daredevil's really good.
I've heard a lot of.
good things about
Thunderbolts.
Really?
Really?
Yeah, a lot of
I think it's going to be good.
It's really good.
Yeah, I'm excited
for the state of geek culture.
Maybe they're finally pulling their heads out.
I don't know. We'll see.
We'll see.
We'll see.
Stuff looks fun.
All right. Well, as always, we want to thank you guys

I don't care, but I only post shit for the show
And on a social media platform that allows porn
I don't understand what rules I broke
Not enough porn
We posted somebody's link and they didn't like it
That's probably what happened
That must be it, yeah, that must be it
Oh well
All right, don't make your post shareable if you don't want it shared
You know what I'm saying?
Oh, that's a good thing
point. That's a good point. Next week we're going back to the theater guys for
a drop. That's what AJ's excited to watch with me. She likes the dude that
plays the date. He was Spencer Dutton in the 1923 series. The
Yellowstone, have y'all seen that? No, I haven't seen that one. I'm loving
Yellowstone. That's her new band fresh. I haven't seen any of the other ones though.
Yeah, they're all good man. They're all good. Um, kind of over the top.
Yeah, yeah. You know, it's cool. Um, and what else do we
to watch Brian cellular
2044?
Who wrote these notes?
Oh, I didn't see that one in a minute.
Oh, must be 2004, right?
Cellular?
Yeah, I don't think we're 24 yet.
Isn't that the one with
fucking Johnny Storm?
Yeah.
Is it?
All right.
No, shit.
Everything comes full circle.
Do you, have you seen cellular before?
Yeah.
I've seen it.
Yeah, I think so.
Awesome.
Yeah, it's not bad.
It doesn't hold up now because, like, current technology
or like, what the fuck?
But, like, at the time, that shit made a lot of...
It's a flip phone or a big phone this big or something.
Jason State was not just a guy with a regular job in it.
Oh, he's in it, too.
I'm excited.
I'm excited.
Tim Basinger?
Okay.
Well, on that note, until the horror returns again, Philip.
Good night.
