Regings 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, one and all, to The Horror Returns.
I am not Lance, but he's right there.
I'm Philip.
We got Brian and Steve from the Geeks.
How's it going, guys?
What's up?
What's up?
Thanks for having you back again.
No problem.
Well, we've got to do more howling movies.
Yeah, after these two fucking movies, you'd better to be here.
Well, my opinions on these two movies may surprise you.
We'll see what happens when we get to that part of the movie.
It probably depends on which one you watch first, I think.
I watched them in chronological order.
So for me, one of them was a lot better than the other.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, let's start out with.
the cool of the week. Steve, you want to start us off?
Absolutely.
Two of the coolest things I've seen this last week are I watched Revenge from 2014.
Oh, yeah.
You remember that one, Brian?
Yeah.
The girl that they knock her off a cliff, shook his pails on a tree.
A-24?
Red Sonia.
That's the new Red Sonia.
No shit.
I never said.
It just missed me.
You know, I just didn't check that one out and I happened upon it.
Yo, that shit with the eagle on her stomach was nuts.
I thought that movie was really cool.
It had me squeamish, though, and that dude stepped on the glass.
Yeah.
Some of the most stuff ever.
So that was really, really cool.
And I just actually got finished watching yesterday, the Magnificent Seven from Anton Fugla with a.
Oh, yeah.
And Chris Pratt.
Oh, yeah.
think about it. I've seen it before, but it's been
a minute, because I mean, it came out in 2011.
I forgot like Vincent DeAnofrio
and Ethan Hawker in it.
I got to say, man, it's
really good.
It's really, really good.
Yeah. It's stylized Western, but it's
also really authentic Western.
It's really fucking good. It's like
a beautiful movie. The music, it's awesome.
When they started to lighten off that
TNT, I was getting chills.
Like, the movie is
solid, solid Western
entertainment so if it's been a minute even since you've seen
antoine's take on a magnificent seven do yourself in favor and
check it out it's not streaming on amazon so oh nice yeah i'll have to
check that one out again i saw it but i can't really remember a whole lot of it
it's i've been rewatching a lot of westerns uh just rewatched tombstone
and this this just fits right in there with all of them it's it's really good
it's funny it's got fantastic action
shitty bad guy for no reason other than to be shitty yeah you know
Well, you got to have that one.
But that's about it.
As far as what I watched, that's about it.
Lance, what did you got?
I am.
I was wondering if anybody was going to catch that.
I'm reading a book or I've just finished a book called Nuclear War a Scenario that came out last year.
You guys heard of it?
No.
Not a feel good book.
Nuclear War, A Scenario.
So it's like a nuclear.
It's like what would really happen.
Yes.
It's a nuclear,
nuclear walwurst scenario.
That was my last answer.
It sounds interesting.
Yeah.
No, it's, it starts out with North Korea launching a couple of surprise missiles.
Like one of them,
one of them's headed toward D.C.
And the other one is headed toward a nuclear facility in California.
So it's basically.
you know, sneak attack. Nobody knows what to do. It's just
it's the amount of research the author did on what would
potentially happen at like the amount of chaos and all these
bunkers and shit. These bunkers ain't going to do shit.
Nobody's going to be left alone. It's a nuclear war.
Because I obviously...
Everybody starts shooting nukes at each other. We're screwed.
Well, when America sends, you know, a response toward Korea
and new rushes capacity is so bad to pick up on that stuff that they think they're headed toward them
and then they fire yet things escalate quickly so it's uh you know again not not real feel good
but a lot of interesting information about there i didn't i didn't realize that we had so many
facilities for like early detection in alaska right you guys uh you guys are like you get like a early
detection system they've got them in Colorado they get all those nukes yeah they're in the middle
of their early detection Brian's early to Brian's early detection system in Alaska is just like looking
over their fence in the back yeah I was gonna say what they're doing over there it's right
I mean you know not like there's a whole lot in Serbia but got a got a military base like 10 minutes away
right over here there you go yeah well that might
be a bad thing yeah right brian brian could be our first line of defense guys if it happens so
we'll uh we'll duck in cover so in this book there's no uh scenario like the show paradise on
hulu which was awesome like come on like that's kind of apocalypse i you know yeah they weren't that
well you know hijinks and you know special networks and shit they weren't that well well prepared
steve yeah it's uh spoiler spoiler alert everybody died
you know, even in Australia.
Like the people that are spared
for all the bombing and stuff, like
the environment is so fucked up afterwards
that they all die from carbon monoxide poisoning.
It's not a happy book.
But it's interesting.
The author did their research.
So who's going to bring us back up?
Brian, what you got?
Let's see.
I checked out Fountain of Youth.
That's my not-so-go-
cool of the week. I meant to see that.
Why didn't you say anything then?
I'm trying to forget it.
What do you think, Brian?
It wasn't that bad.
I definitely would have,
my review probably would have been a little bit lower
if I had to see it in theater
because I think it ran a little bit too long.
Yeah.
It was boring?
There's some moments where it dragged
I think that they would have cut like 15, 20 minutes out of it.
But if you like Indiana Jones, Tomb Raider,
movies like that, National Treasure, stuff like that,
the cast was pretty good.
I just, there was just some low moments in it that just took me out.
You like John Crosinski.
I don't like to see him miss.
He's got nothing but W's as far as I can sit right now.
Jim, Jim from the office does not Indiana Jones mate, Brian.
He did a good job.
He was a great Marine.
I don't think he was really trying to be an Indiana Jones type.
Jack Ryan, yeah.
That was great.
He was great.
Yeah, he was good in that.
W is.
That's all you got.
Killing him.
I got a couple more.
Something that didn't get a W was Pram, Fear Street, Promp.
Oh, no.
What?
No, no, you didn't like it?
We reviewed it Friday.
Too bad.
For 31 days.
I'm sure.
Had to log it.
It is a complete downgrade from the, what, the original trilogy that came out a few years ago.
Oh, yeah.
I felt like, you like this?
Well, shit.
That's cool.
I thought the kills were good.
I thought the kills were good.
There was some good kills.
I mean, I knew the killers, like, almost not immediate.
like I knew they were
I knew stuff about that I don't want to
spoil it but like I was like okay well that's obviously
and that's obviously but like
I don't know some of the kills were good
I thought you know it's catty and kind of
lame kill was good
I thought the grinder
Is that the one Brian?
I don't know I was
I was drawing while I was watching maybe I just wasn't paying
enough attention there was a couple
kills that was off screen
Yes there was
yeah the table's
sauce, not the table saw, the
was it, was it a grinder?
Yeah, it was like a
or like a circular saw blade on it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was cool.
But then you followed up with a weak
electrocution kill right after.
Yeah, I did think that was weak.
Yeah, you brought me up and then you brought me back down.
I had that girl pegged as the killer first.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah.
But.
Yeah, I missed the first, like, I don't know,
20 minutes of it or so and I came in
while the family was watching it.
You didn't miss nothing.
Yeah, I didn't hate it.
I don't know.
Brutal right.
And I checked out two more
films, both on Shutter.
The first one's an Irish folk
horror movie called Fraukka.
I started that
and didn't feel like reading, so I turned it off.
You made the right
decision.
Yes, bad week.
Yes.
Because it's a, it's
It's more psychological than horror.
Like, this lady, she goes into a small town to do, to take care of an elderly woman.
And stuff starts happening.
And then they play off the whole, because she has trauma that happened in her past.
So they play off of, is it really happening or is it the town?
Okay.
And it's a lot of reading because it's, what is it Irish?
Gaelic.
a gay language.
Yeah. So they kind of
bounce back on board, but mostly
they're speaking that language, so you're doing a lot
of reading and a lot of waiting for something
to happen.
Like coming from California, like a lot of movies in Spanish,
I can, I don't even have to read
some of it. Like, I can pick up on most of it,
you know? Yeah. I'm not fluent, but I can pick up
on a lot of what they're saying.
Right. Gay, like, good, Lord.
It's just like, booby-bib-diboo.
And then I'm just like, I don't know what's going on.
That is a.
Each audience.
There is a huge amount of syllables, and there's like two words on screen.
Then there's like one syllable, and there's a whole paragraph.
I'm like, I don't get it.
I don't get it.
Maybe it's just a delay.
Confusing.
And since I was on Shudder, and it just came out, I checked out the surrender.
Kind of the same premise where the daughter has to go back home to help her mother take care.
of her dying father
and she finds out that the mother
is basically doing things
to set up a ritual
to bring him back when he dies
and it's
nothing new as far as the story
but it's done really well and it's acted well
the main actress is
I can't remember her name
or her character's name from the boys
the one that's like the
she works for bot
She's like the marketing
The redhead
Is it not Stephanie
Yeah I know
I don't know what you're talking about
You know what I'm talking about
Yeah
The office
Yeah she's
She rips her hair out and shit
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah she's the main actress in it
And she's she's pretty good
So I definitely recommend that
Don't recommend Falka or Beer Street
Oh
So it's the surrender
I'm just giving things better ratings
These days
Yeah
The surrender.
Okay.
I'm like awfully forgiving.
I watched prom street and I was like, oh, whatever, prom night.
I'm like, eh.
Prom street.
Yeah, I, it was corny, but it was all right.
The music was awesome.
The music was awesome.
What did you like about the dance off?
Oh, the dance was hilarious.
I actually thought that was funny.
The dance was hilarious.
The mean girl was trying so hard.
Because when you're watching my wife goes,
They're not going to have a fucking dance off, are they?
Are they really going to do it?
And I'm like, I don't know, man.
Fucking, they did it.
I know two white girls in a dance off.
And they went there.
My daughter looked at me and she was like, is this what you guys used to do?
And I was like, damn right, we used to do this.
We used to solve generational beefs with dance off.
Dude, what are you talking about?
We could stop wars with danceoffs.
Why do you think they did it in Guardians of the Galaxy?
It's not a bad movie.
It's just, I was a little let.
I was let down.
Yeah, I think Fear Street, like the original trilogy,
it had like a more serious, you could, it was serious.
You could take it as a serious horror thing.
And this was like a horror comedy.
It was more.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I just kind of judged it by being that.
Was it, was it at least?
It's certainly the worst.
If you were trying to rank all of the Fear Street movies,
it's the worst of them.
Okay.
I still thought it was out of it.
Well, is it at least art rate?
you put it like that's
I think so
because of that circular
song killing
because they go back
for seconds
and you see it
yeah
now that you put it like that
Steve
maybe I was a little
too hard on it
maybe I was expecting
the original
Fair Street trilogy
and got
so was I
but then I didn't give it
but they gave me that
and it wasn't
it's only tied in
because of it's
shady side stuff
but other than that
there's not even any
characters from the other stuff
so I'm like
eh
it's just another little
chapter
Yeah
And Chris Klein
Is old now
Oh, wow
Wow
He was
He was the father
No
That was him
From American Pie
Really?
I had no idea
What?
Didn't even click
Huh
Now I kind of got to watch that part
Now the movie
Now the movie gets a hero
So, yeah, I checked out that and I went on a documentary spree on Netflix.
Oh boy.
I watched the Tylenol murders.
That was pretty good.
Jesus Christ.
It never comes down to like any actual answer of it.
Oh, just questions.
Like six episodes in, they're like, and we don't really, we actually know less than when we started.
I'm like, what the fuck?
You did a whole show?
I know. There's so many that are like that.
And then they had a couple of serial killer ones.
There was Fred and Rose West in England.
And, man, they, like, as a couple, like, murdered just random women on the street,
and he had, like, 12 bodies buried in his house or some shit.
Yikes.
There's a lot of fucking weird people out there, man.
That one was pretty good.
What were their names? Rose and Phillip? Is that their names?
No, these people were fucking crazy, man.
It sounds like she was the mastermind behind the whole thing.
But you do get some closure on that one. That one's pretty good.
And then there was a Long Island serial killer.
I can't remember the name of it.
But he, like, murdered a bunch of hookers and just, like, buried them all over the,
all over Long Island.
They found, like, 12 bodies.
Hey.
And that was pretty interesting.
That's all I got this week, man.
So what takes the title?
Time for some of my.
I don't know.
Do prom street.
Prom street.
I keep saying prom street.
Prom street, right?
Prom queen.
It's prom night.
I keep wanting to pop color a bunch of shit that it's not.
Yeah.
I think I got to give it to the Long Island.
serial killer. That was a pretty good one.
All right. On to
horror headlines. What do we got, Brian?
I forgot to mention
it last week, but the Bondsman
on Prime is canceled.
Oh, no. Oh, shit.
That one actually was a lot
of fun. It sucks that they killed it
at the last second.
Yeah. I love that. I love that.
I wish, we got to kind of a little talk
about this on the geeks. I kind of wish when they put
out shows, it was like a rule in it. Like,
when you're going to put out a show, you have to put out a show, you have to
put out exactly how many episodes you're going to do.
None of it. Stop doing this shit.
Or if you get early cancellation,
you have to put out a movie to get down the shit up.
Like, this is bullshit.
Like, what are we doing? You're just setting up all these stories,
never letting them pay off, or you're doing things like Wheel of Time,
where they finally write the ship and get shit going good on season three.
And everyone's like, hey, you know what?
You know, not for nothing.
The show's gotten pretty good, actually.
And they're like, ah, fuck, it cancel it.
It sucked. It sucked for two seasons.
You fixed it and then you should.
Yeah.
Oh, God, man.
It's so frustrating.
Let's see here.
Supernatural is like 25 seasons.
No, no.
William Catlett.
He's been in movies like, what was the last one?
I've seen him in Abigail.
Okay.
What was he in Amiens?
He was the Black Marine guy.
Okay.
All right.
He is going to be.
he's going to play a major role in the Crystal Lake series from A24.
Interesting.
Are we going to see a little, like a little young Jason in that show?
Like a little, you know, big head.
You know, like, ooh.
Man-a Jason.
A little monster boy.
Getting bully.
You know, is that what we're going to see?
A little sloth.
We may get a scene.
him being abused and
mistreated by a camp counselor
is
oh man
she's going to come with a trigger
warning guaranteed
oh boy
hey you guys
right like sloth could
be Jason if you put
yeah the only thing that makes
like could you imagine Jason with pointy ears
that's even scarier
right
sloth has more of a hey Arnold head
I guess
huh but that's what those stupid fucking
masks you get in the store look like anyways. They're never
round. They're always, you know,
wide and bullshit, the spirit Halloween
chasing masks.
Let's see. Danny Elfman is
reteaming with Sam Ramey
to score his next horror movie
called Send Help.
It will be a survivor,
survival horror thriller.
I like that genre. Can't wait.
Yeah. Survival horror is always fun.
Do you see that one jungle with
Daniel Radcliffe?
No, I missed to.
I know which one you're talking about, though.
Yeah, that was pretty good.
I read a book that was kind of like that.
Or sorry, I listened to a book.
If I say I read, I don't get shit.
I listen to a book that was like that.
Yeah, close enough.
But Jungle with Daniel Reckless really good.
If you want to survive a war.
I've never even heard of it.
Yeah, I'm going to go check that one out.
I like his stuff.
He did a good job.
He did a whole body transformation.
for that movie. It was like, man, nobody
nobody saw this? Okay.
It was good.
Let's see. Last week, we talked
about Michael Monroe taking over
from Margoe Qualley in
the movie's Victorian
Psycho. This week, Olivia Cook is
taking over, taking,
she's replacing Michael Monroe in
the vampire movie brides.
So everybody's
jumping from one movie to the next.
And then now what role is
Margot Pauly going to take from Olivia
Cook.
You know, they got to
complete the trifle.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The Brown Robin must be completed.
Now, Olivia Cook is sitting out there not
doing a shit.
Or no, not.
Margotta Paul.
Yeah.
I'm sure she's on to bigger and better
things, man, after that last
one.
Yeah.
You know, I haven't seen her or heard her
name since.
Substance?
The substance.
Yeah.
Which was crazy.
Yeah, but she was great in it.
Quite the before.
Yeah.
Super hot.
And we'll finish with some terror fire for news.
This came from 3C films.
A YouTuber.
Real name is Chris Parker.
He was at Texas Frightmare.
And he was doing a photo op with David Howard Thornton and Damien Leone.
Is that how you say his name?
Leone.
Leone, Leon.
Sure.
Yeah, something like that.
Okay.
He was there to touch up Art the Clown's makeup for the pictures,
and he got to ask him a question about Terror Fire 4,
and he's dropped a little bit of news saying the first 15 minutes of Terror Fyre 4
will give us Art the Clown's backstory.
Ah.
Yeah, it's dangerous.
I know.
Yeah.
I'm not sure how I feel like.
My jump to shirt.
My jump to shirt.
I kind of like that he doesn't.
have one.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, we'll see.
I mean, we'll all be there for Tara Far 4.
Oh, yeah.
Absolutely.
And I think that's the news.
All right.
Time to take a little trip down to the trailer park.
We're going to bring you the big, the small, and sometimes the very, very weird, which sounds
like this week.
Brian, what's our first new trailer?
I bet you guys were thinking this whole time, when are we getting a Pete Davidson horror movie?
What happened this week with The Home from James to Monaco, the director of the Purge.
Yeah, that's a weird casting choice.
Especially because it doesn't seem like it's very comedic.
Yeah.
Let's see, the synopsis follow.
The movie follows Max, who realizes the residents and caretakers.
in the retirement home, he has started working at
hide a sinister secret.
There's going to be a lot of naked old people in this movie.
Guarante.
Oh, I bet you're right.
That's where the comedic parts happen.
It's not funny, though.
It's a little scary, though.
I think Pete will make it funny.
You think he's going to, you think there's going to be some comedy in there?
I'm sure they let him.
Gotta be.
Add live something.
I mean, if there's naked old people,
or in the red with him.
I'm sure he's going to have to have something like this.
Oh, yeah.
It's just like the lighting and the color palette, you know,
the, all of that.
It just gives it just really moody, atmospheric feel that doesn't scream Pete Davidson.
Yeah, what retirement home has a room with black lights?
They look like.
Seems like a bad idea.
No doubt.
Yeah.
Like, imagine if you have dementia, you know, and you wander in a black light room.
It's like, you're going to freak out, man.
Tripping on acid.
They sneak acid into the oatmeal.
Eesh.
So anybody goes.
Okay.
I just think it, it looks, it looks worth watching.
I think the film, I mean, it looks like they spent a lot of money on it.
It looks like, you know, there's some decent acting in it.
I'm not, I'm not, I don't hate Pete Davidson.
I don't really care about him either way.
Like, he's a funny guy that.
got to like do a bunch of shit that a bunch of dudes wanted to do and now a bunch of people
hate him because he got to do that that box yeah that's what i'm saying like you know i'm not going to
hate on it you know it's like i don't get it like i don't get i was like man how but teach me but
12 inches man 12 inches be funny be funny and have a large don't the bank account doesn't hurt either
I don't hate the idea of seeing him in a serious movie.
I think that if he can pull it off, might be kind of cool.
Was that show he was on on Peacock comedic?
I'm not sure.
Which one?
Didn't last very long.
I don't know the name of it.
Well, like, he did that movie with Bill Burr and, you know, the King of Staten Island.
Where Bill Burr was the Fireman?
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, okay.
And, like, it had funny parts, but it wasn't a comedy.
That was a drama.
Yeah.
You know, and, like, it had funny elements to it, but it was not a comedy.
So.
Well, I think that worked because it was pulling from stuff that actually happened in his life.
Mm-hmm.
But I just mean he has the chops, I think.
Yeah.
So I'll check out.
Home looks sweet.
All right.
The Home hits theaters July 25th.
And on to our final trailer.
is from a director I like
Joe Vigos
Jimmy and Stiggs
Jesus
We're going to start with Lance
because I said something super funny
What else is your record?
Trash
That Christmas one
Silent Night bloody
What was it called
With a fucking robot Santa Claus
Walking around
Christmas Bluette
Christmas?
what was that other horrible when he did
he did the BFW
that wasn't
which was
but there was one it
that was just horrible
I see it was so bad
I can't remember the name of Christmas
bloody Christmas was all right
she wasn't great
all right well
yeah
yeah no I
I started watching
it's a it's a Santa robot
killing people
the
the bar is set extremely
low. Yeah.
So it's like, I don't expect, like, the fact that it's even a movie that makes, that has any
sense at all, I'm like, well, you know, I probably couldn't have done that.
Well, I would love to have him on the show. We do know somebody that is related to him.
We do. We do. Right, Lance.
I would love for him to come on the show and you tell him all his movies are trash.
Yeah, he's telling me what they're doing. And we'll get Eli Rothone with him, too, because apparently
Eli produced this one, right? So, we'll do it two.
Yeah, because you think all Eli Ross movies are trash, too.
Well, there you go.
But most of Eli Roth's movies aren't very good.
Like, early Eli Roth was good, but then, like, hid that weird earthquake movie that wasn't good.
Come on, dude.
Knock, knock.
The Green Inferno, which I was so excited for.
And then it wasn't good.
What was it a masterpiece?
Knock Doc.
I'm being sarcastic.
That movie is hilarious.
I haven't seen that one
With Keanu
I haven't seen that one because I know that's the movie
that someone's going to walk in at the wrong time
when it's on
Steve you need to watch it
because there's a certain scene with Keanu
it's going to make you question
is it bad acting
or is it bad acting on purpose
oh really
good point
good point
I will have to see that.
Now you got me intrigued for one specific scene.
I'm going to be watching it like a hog too.
Yeah.
But nothing about this movie intrigues you at all, Lance?
Not really, because I love alien movies,
but this looks like a fucking rubber doll that were throwing around.
I mean, I got to be honest.
It looked like a fucking rubber dog.
But you love Psycho Gorman.
Well, yeah, but that was different.
That was hilarious, man.
Mimi, let's face it, Mimi made that movie.
for me. So Psycho
Gorman was great though because it reminded
me the old Power Rangers and shit they used
to watch.
I don't think this is going to capture
that ethos.
I don't think this is going to capture that
memory. You know.
But I could be wrong.
You know, might be great.
Yeah, because you said
before we watched Psycho Gorman, you said that
movie would look like it was trash.
Well, this
movie at first, I thought is this
is this a sequel to that one
that South African got made?
Fried Berry. Because it looked
like the same exact story as fried Barry.
Literally. And that looked like
fried Barry almost. So,
I don't know. Yeah, but
fried Barry had like Dick swinging around
in it.
Probably well in this.
Okay, I know what he's talking about.
What the hell is Friday?
I don't know.
I don't think I see
that. I definitely haven't seen that.
I think you should go into it and probably only knowing that.
Like you,
it sounds like you guys are talking about street trash,
but I don't know what fried bear is.
It's the new one?
Yeah.
It's the same director.
Oh, okay.
But I'm into it.
It's practical effects.
It looks fun.
It looks metal.
It looks gory.
It said the guy spent four years filming it,
so a lot of his time went into it.
and I'm going to support it.
I like his direction
in most of his movies
even if Lance thinks they're all trash.
He's popular.
He's got a following.
He's got a following, that's for sure.
Yeah, and he's giving you something different
in all his movies, so I'm going to check this one out.
I think it looks like indie fun.
It looks, you know, it looks like a lot of fun
went into making it a lot of passion,
you know, like a little passion project.
It looks good.
I mean, it looks like you're not going to be taking it too seriously.
But if you go through the right mindset, you're going to have a good time.
I like all the little blurbs they kept putting up.
I'm like everything they just said about this movie makes me want to watch it more.
It's a good trailer.
Yeah, a great trailer.
I'm stoked about it.
I'm definitely watching this one.
And a good soundtrack.
Yep.
I didn't even know this was on the radar, Brian, so thank you for that.
This or home, really.
Yeah, home dropped today as we're recording this, and Jimmy and Stiggs, the trailer dropped yesterday.
So I don't see a release date, but from what I understand, it's going to be in select theaters starting, I think, in June.
Okay.
Well, maybe we're out to streaming before too long then.
Since we're in the trailer park, I'm going to throw a little geek stuff in here and ask what you guys thought of the new round of Superman trailers, because it's a hot, top.
on our show and I know it's not horror content
really but I just wanted to get your guys
as hot takes because I
think it looks like a lot of fun
I'm like fully on board. I think it looks like a lot of fun
I love that we're not starting
all over getting the origin of
Superman all over it's an established
Superman. There's superheroes in
and there's going to be other characters
they all look fun
it's directed by James Gunn written
by James Gunn he's done
nothing that I have not liked
so he's got my full trust
So I think it looks fun.
I feel like I'm defending the shit out of that trailer on my show constantly.
I'm like, come on, guys.
They're like, ah, like, oh, man, hard sell.
Well, even after seeing the first trailer, it looks different.
I haven't seen the new ones.
I kind of don't want to.
The new trailer, it doesn't give you very much.
It doesn't give you anything more story,
but it gives you just a couple more flashes,
a little bit of Superman talking.
Okay.
Which is nice to be able to actually say stuff.
But I mean, James Gunn hasn't really done a whole lot wrong.
I like when he tells the monster stop.
He's like, hey, eyes up here.
This is nice.
I like the attention to detail.
What's the actor's name that's playing Green Lantern?
That's Nathan Phileon.
Nathan Phileon.
I just read something that he said he had to have the bowl cut in the movie.
Yeah, he's playing Guy Gardner.
Because he said that's how he looks in the comic.
So that's how I want to look.
It is a shitty bowl cut, bro.
It is, he looks like a fucking pilgrim.
He looks like a dumb and dumber style.
Lloyd Christmas.
But hot girl looks awesome.
Hot girl looks great.
Mr. Territic looks great.
Okay.
I think Superman's suit looks pretty good.
I still like Henry Cavill suit more, but I get it.
I get it.
Yeah.
I don't get hung up on the symbol and stuff.
I just get hung up on all the paddy.
Yeah.
All right.
Well, you check that one out too for sure.
All right.
That was it.
Sorry, sorry to derail.
Oh, no worries.
On to listener feedback.
This week, we're going to shine the podcast spotlight on gutted horror podcast.
Gutted Horror Podcast is a weekly horror movie podcast where hosts Alice and Tony dissect and review horror films.
They offer a blend of pre-coller movie.
gut trailer reviews
and predictions. Oh, and post
gut, full film reviews.
Discussions, engaging
with fans of the genre and sharing
their own insights.
They also feature gut reaction
episodes where they watch half of a film
predicting the ending.
Oh, that's interesting.
Yeah, pretty cool. Yeah, good stick.
I like it.
And in regards to
the back rooms, Pat
Crusoe says, that was
wild and interesting.
What is the back?
I probably should have brought that up in the new.
The backrooms is like a creepy pasta
short film that this guy,
I think his name's Kane Parsons, did on YouTube.
Oh yeah.
Ask your kids.
Yeah, millions, millions and millions of views.
A-24 picked it up.
And basically he's going to turn it into a feature-link film.
Isn't it just like he was like walking around
in the woods and found a fucking.
and like an entrance
and let him into an office building
and shit. That's his other one that I want
them to make that into a, where he
goes in the hole in the tree and it's a staircase
that goes down, like all the
way down. There's like lights on and shit.
Whoa. Yeah.
It's crazy. It's a abandoned mall.
That is a trip.
But the actress from
the Black Mirror
episode, the
what's the Star Trek
one? Okay, Christina Milang
Yeah, she's rumored to be in it
And
I butcher his name every time I say
Chihuahua Edgua 4
Chuita. I know who you're talking about.
He's also rumored to be in it.
Okay, so
I like him.
Looks promising.
Okay.
And in regards to
Death of a Unicorn, Fallen Angel
Sews says pretty good movie
to be fair.
I haven't seen it.
Eh. It's all right.
You guys, I listen to your guys' review.
I haven't seen it yet.
Yeah, that's fine.
Let's see. Deep Rising.
Martin Powell says,
Got this on DVD.
Brilliant film.
Deep Rising rules.
Nice.
Blast from the past.
And in regards to the Conqueror Worm,
I don't know what that is either.
Me, me, no, me.
Steve Haberman says,
listen to my commentary with Ian Ogilvie and Philip Waddylove
on the Wicked Vision Blu-ray, MGM DVD,
and Screen Factory Blu-ray in their Vincent Price Collection one.
Yeah, okay.
I've seen it.
I've seen it.
It's an old one.
It's like those Witchmaster General.
Okay.
Yeah, those Witchmaster General type movies, right,
where they're burning the witch.
Okay.
Yeah.
It's pretty good.
It's pretty good.
I say Vincent Price.
So that's good.
Yeah.
All right.

It's Howling Week again.
Because Steve's here.
But it's the last week, right?
This is it.
For now, until they do the remake.
They're supposed to do a remake.
Is there enough one?
I'm checking a double-checking right now.
Not yet.
Not yet.
Because I thought the 2005 one was it.
This is it.
This is it.
Oh, that's it.
Okay.
They are working on a remake to the original.
when the remake comes out, we'll have to do that again.
Interesting.
Yeah.
We'll do it with a rewatch of
Werewolves.
Steve.
Oh, fuck, man.
That movie sucks.
Yeah.
Fuck.
I forgot about that part.
All right.
We'll start with howling.
What is this one?
Seven.
New Moon Rising from 1995.
I think it's got a different name when I started it.
It's called the fucking terrible background music over and over and over for the whole time.
It was also released as Howling Seven Mystery Woman.
It was somehow filmed on a 1997 Nokia phone and released in 1990.
Yeah, that's an accomplishment, right?
yeah there's there's only one person in this entire cast that even has a picture on iMdb
the rest of their local yelps it's old folks bar and they were like all right we'll let you
film it here but we have to like sing a bunch yeah they're like a whole bunch and then they made a
movie all right it says a small town desert community in southern california begins experiencing
a number of brutal werewolf like slayings
It looks like a bunch of people get, like, touched.
Right.
Following the arrival of a strange motorcyclist,
director is Roger Nall, also known for Hard Time.
Don't know what that is you.
Writer is Gary Brander and Clive Turner.
During filming in 1990, actor John Huff,
who plays the priest, Father John,
was battling leukemia and was expected to live only a few weeks.
Miraculously, he recovered and still resides in Pioneer Town.
Holy shit.
Well, that's a feel good story.
He decided to stay in that town.
Maybe he's the real old.
All right, Steve, what do you think about this one?
Oh, this was very bad.
This movie, like, it was annoying to watch it.
Like, that's, like, the worst, right?
When you're just annoyed at the movie, they're like,
God damn, this stupid fiddle song again.
Like, oh, my, fuck.
Oh, Bruno.
And then full songs.
Like, I don't like musicals, but you know what?
I don't like more.
Old folks that can't carry a tune.
And you've got to watch the whole fucking song from the beginning to end.
Oh, yeah.
That happened.
Not once.
Not twice.
Not twice.
Christ.
Ugh.
Fuck this movie.
The werewolf shit was trash.
Like, they showed her.
This chick's face.
from twice.
Oh, it was so good.
We had to see it again.
And then they showed like a close-up of a wear-of-face toy or some shit.
Oh, God.
What the fuck even was this movie with his weird, long-haired Australian cowboy with Hawaiian shirts?
That's the director.
Was it?
Dude, this movie sucks.
The writer.
This movie has no redeeming qualities.
I thought it was the director, too, actually.
They tried to get, like, clever at the end and, like, look at all these stones were
unturning. Look at all these revelations
we're revealing. And I'm like, who the fuck
even is that? And what are you even
talking about? I don't
even kidding. I just was so done.
The credits were going and
I couldn't turn it off fast enough.
Yeah. I passed forward to do
that last little camp sing-along
that they were doing.
Did you?
No it is anymore. Why you missed the best part?
Hot
garbage. So
that's my take.
Wow.
Lance, what do you think?
Brutal.
Oh, man.
So,
Australian Lemmy rides into town.
And what?
Everybody thinks he's a werewolf?
Is that the takeaway here or what?
Everyone thinks he's hot.
Like all the chicks are all the girls and all the ladies in the bar.
Well, then why is he going for the ugly chick then?
He could have done better than that.
Jesus Christ.
If he had a little town to be from, I guess.
Oh, my God.
So y'all talk about the transformation.
that what's that
oh no
I was just like the banter
the back and forth
between like the locals and
and what's Ted
or whatever his fucking name was
like like there's like a five minute
conversation in a urinal
she's like what do we do
oh yeah
that was so bad
that was awkward
yeah
so y'all talked about the transformation
at the end there that was so terrible
the really bad CGI
other than that were there any
actual werewolf attacks
in this movie like practical or
CGII
well didn't we see like
werewolf vision and then we saw
like that was it like
he got like tickled from his back
he's like ah
you know like
like it poked him
and he was like what the fuck
so they only kill
so the only kills in this movie then were
regurgitated scenes from prior
Allen movies right
that they spliced into the story
oh that fucking mess of a story of a story
Yeah, they tried to loop in the other worst movie in the franchise.
Yeah, Steve, they tried to loop in if you pay attention,
which you don't have to go back and pay attention.
They tried to incorporate five, six, and seven.
What?
Yeah.
I reckon.
I know I know.
They did the whole castle bit.
I know that.
So.
Yeah.
Yeah.
They did.
They went there.
But the acting in this movie,
that the big thing is the acting right so you've got the priest or whatever he is that that's talking like
there is a werewolf coming to get us and i think that you should do this and then do that and then the other
well shit man what are we going to do the country guy and then what was with old grandpa they get old grandpa
down there singing he's like i know what girl what a country man is she had country song and i don't
care how to carry a tune to go and go along this was bad it was like that and he had a
I didn't know if it wanted to be a country musical or like a fucking Disney World Country Bear Jamboree or what the fuck was this?
And then no werewolves, right, except that terrible double transformation and scenes from the prior movies.
I mean, this is kind of like dragging the bottom of the lake.
This is rough stuff.
I don't, what could be redeeming about this?
This is really bad.
usually it's the soundtrack
easily
I would have wanted to
usually the redeeming qualities like the music
but it's not
but yeah
nope
I hope I'm missing something
Phillip
uh Brian
Brian what do you think
this is the definition of what they call
a vanity picture
I'm making it up right now
Clyde Taylor stars
is Ted Smith the Australian guy
He not only starred in it
He directed, wrote the screenplay, produced,
probably did catering, edited the movie
So he edited all that music in there
This motherfucker.
Oh no, there's a reason you've never seen you.
The movie even finishes off with a musical scene
And I'm not from Texas
But I feel like Texas should be offended
It took place in Southern California, though
Because that's what we do in Southern California, Brian.
Right.
We have, no.
But why did they do the Texas thing?
Yeah, they did like in Texas.
Yeah.
Zip, zip, zip the stars at night.
It's a badly written movie.
How did they tell me how they looped into the other ones.
What were their callbacks?
There was a couple of scenes.
that were spliced in
like random scenes that made
no sense to the story
and then one of the actresses
from from that movie was in this movie.
Right.
Okay. So I think I did take up on most of it.
And those are the only two movies she's ever done.
Yes. And no,
no IMDB picture, right, Philip?
Nope.
And there's only there's only one movie where there's
dancing with a broom.
and that's broken to electric
boogaloo, not whatever they were doing
in this movie.
And I don't know, you say
country Western musical, I say
they were trying to go comedy straight up
because every interaction with anybody at the bar
they were trying to do jokes.
They fell flat.
They fell flat.
Lance is right.
The cop like starts a cute
using the priest at the end.
He's like, actually, I think you fucking went up to all this shit.
And he's like, those are dangerous accusations.
Would you fucking emote, fool?
God damn.
But I mean, now that you said it, like, he's battling leukemia.
So I feel terrible.
You know, what is the end when the actual werewolf takes Ted back to the motel?
Wakes an hour and says, now it's time for you to die.
Why did they wait an hour?
I don't know.
I guess that's when the moon was coming out.
I didn't understand.
Oh, that's when the moon was coming out.
Bypass that whole, like he sat in that chair for an hour.
Is that what happened?
Yeah.
I think so.
You're on mute, Steve.
Always happens at least once.
But they're waiting so she could have that awesome curtain reveal, you know?
So they could be like, I set you up.
Like, what?
And he's, and Ted.
doesn't emot either. Like he's got a gunpoint. He's like, oh, what's the
problem? Schela. It's like, would you
fuck? Right. Like, there's just nothing,
you know? What's the problem,
Shayla? I'm terrible. I just
I just realized they didn't have it be from the
marsupil, Steve.
I thought, surely he was going to be
I know, why didn't he tie that movie
in? He should have. That would have made
more sense.
Wasted opportunities.
I apologize for
recommending this franchise because of this one.
I have to admit it was legit fun.
Oh, we got here.
Oh, it's all right.
Okay.
Oh, okay.
We even got to the next one because I have some shit to say about that one.
Uh-oh.
Oh, me too.
But like this, but there's always something you can at least have fun making fun of it.
Or you know, you can find things to laugh at.
And you're like, oh, this is going to make a fun conversation.
This is just, I mean, I've had way more fun shitting on it with you guys.
and I've been watching it.
Yeah.
I've had more fun taking the shit.
The only, you know what?
That's the only silver line
in this movie has.
That movie,
want to do scores,
Phil?
Or no,
you didn't even say what you think yet.
Oh,
yeah.
Phil may love it.
It might be the worst movie
I've ever seen.
Oh, no.
You forget about it.
Jennifer.
Is this worse than,
I don't know,
this might be,
is this worse than black Christmas?
This movie is notorious.
This movie is,
This movie is notorious because I think this is, what's his name?
Clive.
Joe Bob.
Joe Bob Briggs.
I think this.
Oh.
Who?
Oh, he did, like the monster.
Yeah, I think this was the first movie he's ever seen.
Oh, wow.
That's saying a lot.
And he's seen everything.
Yeah.
This is a really, really bad movie, man.
There is no redeeming quality.
at all. The jokes were bad. The acting was bad. There wasn't even really a story.
At all. There wasn't.
No. It just went from one thing to another thing.
They didn't do anything interesting until the very end, and it was bad.
It was just, like, the best part of this movie was the regurgitated scenes from the other shitty howling movies.
I hate it when they do that.
howling seven was
howling seven was one of the most mind numbingly confusing
accumulations of bad acting
and incomprehensible plotting that I've ever seen in my life
and like Steve said that comes from a guy that's seen
everything
yeah this
if you want to see the worst movie you've ever seen
then go watch this but even then probably don't
you got to watch this movie this
that awesome magic trick where he drinks
the beer from under the table.
Oh my God. I didn't get that at all.
That takes so long to happen.
I know. I thought he was going
to sit in the cup and like, ugh.
I thought he was going down there to give,
to give the guy Fuletian or something.
Jeez, what?
That would have been more interesting.
But even that guy, like the town bully,
he's like, hey, you,
get out of here.
Like, okay.
Ooh.
And he's like, fuck that guy.
I'm going to get him with a knife.
What?
That's not a knife?
That's not a knife.
Yeah.
See, now they should have done that.
I would have laughed at that.
There was a lot of jokes and none of them were right.
Yeah, but the guy that played Ted was probably like, I'm not going to do that.
That's not a little brow.
He's trying to be a professional movie star here.
Yeah, let's go.
scores on this one.
Steve?
Oh, well, we give this rating out
when we don't like shit on the geeks, too.
I'm going to give it a big bat.
Zero.
Zero on 10.
The only we're giving quality
is the conversation I got to have
with you guys after the fact.
That's it.
That's it.
Dane Don.
I'll give it a point five.
Point five.
They tried to make a move.
Oh, they did.
But they should.
shouldn't have. Yeah. They didn't never ask, they knew they could, but they didn't
never stop to think, should, you know. Okay. All right, Dr. Ian, Ian Malcolm, or what?
I had a high school project with some theater kids, and we filmed, like, a midsummer night's
dream where we were all, like, acting. It was terrible.
like fun
Brian what do you think
this movie's a fucking zero
this is like
they took the name
howling and they basically
amity-filled it
where it's just
in name only
and then somehow
Clive Turner
master, director, writer,
editor,
actor,
pannessed whoever owned the rights of the previous ones to splice in scenes of the previous movies
to try to make it somewhat a werewolf movie.
Well, he'd been in a couple of them, I think.
Yeah, but Phil, he didn't make those.
Yeah, that's very true.
Yeah, he was the stupid ponytail guy.
You know, now he's this long-haired.
He's trying to make himself into Fabio.
riding in town
his hair's too thin to be
Fabio
what are you saying
Ryan
riding in town
on his
motorcycle with his leather coat
oh yeah
he was a duster
oh my god
what the fuck does this guy
think he is right
Australian Lemmy
and put it out
Australian Lemmy
yeah
that looks like
you
uh
so
yeah this is
after three people are sitting at a point five total score
fell yeah no this is definitely a zero
I'm not going to go negative on it but man it was like
really bad
like this was
I think this is a first I think it's worse than two
than two Jennifer I think it is I can't remember what happened
in two Jennifer but I haven't seen it in a long time
well then we're right out of this is not good
Oh, no
Uh-oh.
Brian drops.
Oh, no, Brian left.
The werewolf got him.
He's like, this movie sucks so bad him out.
He still got one more to come for them.
All right.
And he said he had things to say about it.
So hopefully he'll get back in.
I know.
I'm curious.
I hope his internet didn't go out.
Russia guy.
Oh.
All right.
There's our only warning detection system.
Oh, shit.
That would be, we wouldn't have time to worry about.
Oh, my God.
The canary in the coal mine.
All right.
We'll move on to the Howling Reborn from 2011.
A teenage outcast discovers he's a werewolf
and must battle a pack of brutal creatures
when they threaten him and his new girlfriend.
director is Joe Namsiki
also known for an episode of the Outer Limits.
Okay.
Yeah, that was fun show.
Yeah.
Writers Joe Namsiki with James Robert Johnson.
As of 2024, this is the final entry in the Howling franchise.
A remake of the original was announced in 2015, but has remained in development hell since then.
so we're still waiting on that.
Steve,
you want to start us out on this one?
Man, Brian.
I'm trying to find Brian.
I know.
I need to come back.
Yeah,
y'all talk slowly.
Well,
let's see if I'm reunited here.
So basically what it looks like they did with this movie,
now I watched this after the last one.
So this was an actual movie with a
semi-coherent storyline.
True.
Decent.
I've seen way worse acting than this.
and the werewolves
gotta say
they're not that bad for this
I mean they're actually pretty good
at the end like pretty good like the werewolves
the problem
they have here is the script
is the nonsense
that comes out of these people's mouths and the
scenarios in which we find our characters
like shooting up a school
hallway and then having no reaction
from anybody whatsoever
it's kind of crazy
like that was three shots and a child
screamed while plummeting to his death.
We got an awesome dummy shot from that.
And then the next thing you see is they just walk out of that hallway
and everyone's just hanging out.
Yeah.
It never comes back.
Yeah, I kind of expected something out of it.
It just doesn't.
So there's some weirdness there.
And then there's like, you know,
this whole forced relationship between our two young lovers here
where there's like,
oh my God, there's a relationship and this and this.
And I'm like, it's been like,
four hours.
Like, you,
you know,
there's no love here.
You know nothing about each other.
It's been,
it's been a total of four hours.
You've known each other.
But that,
all that being aside,
you know,
it's not a,
it's not a good movie,
but it is a massive swing up
from the last one.
Yes.
That's a fair way to put it.
I absolutely agree.
So,
okay,
Brian came back just as I finished.
We got Brian.
Okay, cool.
trying to sit on the Facebook.
Is he back?
Yeah, we got you, Brian.
We got you.
Oh, no.
I don't think Brian's there.
We said it was our early
detection system. Yeah, we thought the Russians
got you.
So I just
finished mine up, Brian. Basically, I
said it was just a massive upswing from the last
one, but it's still not
awesome.
Essentially.
but I did like the werewolves
I thought the wereos
I thought the wereos looked pretty decent
and it was almost in TNA
it was a little bit
a little weird seeing Ned to classify
better on there trying to act like
all right
Lance you want to take it away
I don't think I can
you guys can't hear me can you?
Yeah we can hear
oh okay
oh man
yeah it was it was a big
jump up
It wasn't horrible.
I mean, I definitely didn't like love it.
I wouldn't go back and see it over and over and over and over again.
But, yeah, a little bit awkward some of the sex scenes or near sex scenes or whatever.
Like with the young high school girl and then the, you know, the mommy that didn't age.
And if he was a werewolf too, how come he aged while she didn't?
Did they explain that?
Well, he had to hit puberty before he could become a werewolf.
well, I guess apparently I'd graduate high school before he became a werewolf.
Okay.
Yeah, that old story.
All right.
That makes sense.
Yeah.
Get with that one shit, you know, in the libraries.
Otherwise, it's maybe a baby werewolf the whole time.
That'd be terrifying.
Fair enough.
I mean, again, it wasn't terrible.
It wasn't like anything that I'm going to remember for a long time.
You know, werewolves doing ecstasy and shit like that.
You know, if I could, typical high school shenanigans.
I guess.
But just like
just like Children of the Corn
though,
you know,
some of those
not great movies,
but in that franchise
some of them stood out.
You know,
like that was definitely better
than those other ones.
And this Howling movie,
I would probably put
just at the,
closer to the top
just because it's at least
looks good.
Yeah.
At least I can look at it
not be offended
by what I'm looking at.
Yeah,
but not great.
Not great,
but much better.
Oh, I'm sorry.
yeah okay uh brian what do you think movies trash oh no we're didn't ask everybody's a werewolf
everybody's a werewolf nobody knows who's a warwolves right there's like no recognizable people that
see that was the the fun thing about doing the children of the corn and most of the the the housing episodes
right uh because you you would see somebody you
recognize somebody was collecting a paycheck for a day's work.
I don't recognize anybody except the guy's hot mom that was banging the father to death.
I was going to say she's somebody, right?
I don't know where she's from, but I think I've seen her before.
Yeah, she was in that show, Banshee, and I think she was a bomb girl.
Oh, okay.
Some street grid.
But this movie was hard, this movie was hard to watch.
Like, I could not keep my attention on this movie.
Oh, all of the script was terrible.
It was like some high school Dawson's Creek insert werewolves here.
Right.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Good description.
They tried to make it Twilight.
Look at the color palette.
They tried to make a Twilight.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
They even shit on Twilight in the movie talking about like, oh, we're not sparkly vampires.
I'm like, oh, but you got the color palette and you got the music.
You're trying.
They shit on some of the old howling movies too.
They stole the font from the
The Final Destination, the original movie, the opening credits.
Uh-huh.
Oh, shit.
Didn't know.
Okay.
Interesting.
And then the ending, I guess we just, when they killed the mom off,
I guess we just throw the rules out the window on how you kill the werewolves.
Yeah.
Yeah, it's just kind of whatever is convenient.
Well, they said earlier.
in the movie that
only another wolf can kill the alpha.
Can kill the alpha.
Yeah.
I blacked out during that part.
It's,
it's,
it's,
you know what it was?
I watched this literally.
I will finish seven and then went to this one.
And I was like,
oh my God,
I can see.
Like the whole other movie,
I was constantly like rubbing my eyes.
Like,
I can't focus.
Yeah.
You know,
fucking,
it's so blurry.
And then this one comes on.
I'm like,
I don't know, Steve.
I was fucking bored.
I was like,
I'm kind of waiting for a country music song to start happening.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
I'm kind of waiting on some jokes about dirt in the chili.
I'm waiting on something.
At least there was werewolves in this one,
full-on, full-body werewolves that fought.
That was cool.
True, true.
Yeah.
I mean, they kind of like just four-on slapped each other for a
bit. It's how we're gonna be gonna be gonna be a little tail wagling around as they're
busting through. Oh yeah, look like a rat's too. I was like that doesn't really match.
I don't like that. They tried. Yeah. Bo.
I didn't hate it mostly because I watched it immediately after that last one, which was
like complete dog shit. It's the only way to watch it. Yeah. Makes it really good. Yeah, I'd actually
makes, I'm like, oh, man, thank
God we have like a real movie.
That's really all it was.
I like that they had that line.
They were talking about a
like if I wanted to watch
40-year-olds, I'd go
watch my parents or something. And I
think they were talking about the... They were definitely
talking about the old guy in the Halloween
movie when they just came out.
I don't want to watch old people sing or some shit.
Oh, so good.
I didn't hate it, man.
I thought the werewolf was okay.
The story was, you know, not great,
but it was at least a story.
There was something you could follow.
Kind of had a happy ending sort of at the end there.
I don't know.
During the credits, though, I guess the werewolves take over the world is what it sounds like.
I don't know.
That was a cool scene on the New York Jumbotron thing,
in New York, the Titan
everything and it's like
it transforms on screen
that it's a quick flash
but I thought it was pretty cool
it's a prequel to werewolves
it kind of was
this movie is better than werewolves
this movie's better than werewolves yes
I agree 100%
I'll rather watch this than werewolves again
I really
man well maybe not I don't know
at least with shirt
come on dude
they're both
they're both around the shirtless
about the same level
okay
shirtless
Frank Grillo
What's his name?
Frank Grillo
Brian,
I needed to get your take
on the one scene though
where the school bully
pulls out a gun
because that's what you do
and then he shoots off
three rounds
in a school hallway
during class
then his body plummet
several stories to his death
while he screams
and then they walk out of the hallway
and everyone's just like
having lunch
like right there
and it never brought up again
and the maximum
security high school
with the greatest security system
of all time
that has a catacombs
beneath it real quick
yeah it happens to have a catacombs
beneath it
yeah it's
it's really bad stuff
that's some bad stuff
but you know
there's some good way
it was some cool world stuff
I like when he was
when it was like chasing him
through the hallway you know
the tunnels and he he's
escaping his crash into the door
it's only
get a glimpse of its face for a second, but I like that, building attention.
What sucks is when you build attention for the whole movie, and then you get what you've got
in seven, which is a shitty little face morph bullshit.
That was bad.
At least here you build attention and you get like monsters that pay it off.
I'm like, all right, well, I get like five solid minutes of monsters bashing each other
through walls.
It's pretty good.
Yeah, although it seems like if they could break down concrete walls while they're werewolves,
that he could have just turned into a whirl
and broke down the wall.
But yeah, I'm not looking
too far into it.
You're asking for logic and good screenwriting.
It is a werewolf movie after all.
They struggle with continuity in these.
One thing doesn't necessarily lead to another.
But yeah, all on all, I didn't hate it.
I was super relieved
that I could actually watch this.
Like I was, I was so ready for that other movie to be over.
Like, what is this shit going to end?
Some of the music, though, I was questioning the choices.
I was like, some of it was really aggressive.
Like, okay, I get you're going for a move, but wow, this is.
I don't know who this is, but it's terrible.
Yeah.
This is a terrible song.
All right.
Scores, Steve, what do you think?
I'll go ahead and throw it two over here at this.
We'll give it a two.
I forget what I gave
Werewolves
But I know it was somewhere down there
Ah
Figure you would have liked more than that
Lance
No it's really a shitty movie
It was just way better than seven
That's something to say
I'm giving it a three
Oh Lance gave it a higher score
Yeah I've given it a three
Simply because I saw it
Right after seven
No maybe I was too well
Maybe I was too low
I'll keep going up
I'll match Lance
Brian what do you think
Point five
Point five
It's a little bit better
right is brutal man
did not like
uh
I'm gonna go four on this one
okay
I
which
under normal circumstances
is a really shitty movie
but
they hate it
howling scale
howling scale
howling scale
I'd give it like a six
at least yeah
because it is
it is a lot better
than probably the last three of them, at least, that we've watched.
Easy, easily, yeah.
Easily.
You guys like some of them more than me.
Like, I didn't like Freaks.
Those were some of them that I didn't take, that I didn't even have with fun that you guys did.
Yeah, had some fun.
Yeah, freaks was funny.
Marsupials is the best.
Oh, yeah.
That's a wild time, man.
All right.
Any last words?
I think Steve is.
going to announce the next franchise we're going to do.
Oh, what do we got?
I'm going to announce it.
Yeah, I thought you had one picked out.
Okay.
When I read your message yesterday, I thought you said it.
I thought you said, don't forget, I'm going to announce the next franchise.
I was like, oh, okay.
So I didn't.
Oh, okay.
We're winging it.
All right.
Well, we'll have it.
So what is it?
Steve, what's it going to be?
We'll put a pin in now.
I don't know.
Okay.
That's why I didn't say it.
We'll find that.
I apologize.
I dropped the ball on that one.
That's right.
We'll drop the ball a lot.
The Harlem Globetrotters, we are not.
