Man, that was...
Could be.
Harrowing.
It was.
I don't do horror, John.
I'm sorry, Troy.
We found the perfect convergence.
My horror movies are saxophone lead and grandpaws celebrate.
Often, you can't rain all the time in them, you know?
Yeah, they're lighter.
It's okay.
It's okay.
I won't do this to you anymore.
It's about death stalking someone perhaps, or it's a catchy meta commentary on horror.
So when people get eviscerated, it's funnyish.
Sure, sure, I get you.
I'm discussing scream.
I didn't mean to take advantage of your trust today.
Oh, God.
In fact, guys, look, to make Koi feel better,
if you happen to be listening on Apple or Spotify,
why don't you just leave a rating, maybe five stars.
Coy, it really helps Koi's morale,
and it also helps these, you know, podcasts and whatnot
to travel far and wide, as we hope they always will.
And buy shirts to support my therapy bills.
Oh, shirts, what do you mean?
You mean, like, one of these?
The ones we're wearing?
Like this nifty for the occasion.
Exactly.
I dressed with this guy who looks kind of like he could be a vampire,
even though he's based off of Vectna.
And one from, you know, squid game.
We got there.
Yeah.
That was like, I don't know what that other one is.
Rejagnation shop.com.
That's a great place to support the channel.
We got a whole bunch of designs up there.
They're designed for the most part in-house.
I've got a couple licensed things as well.
But it's one of our favorite ways to support.
so if you feel so inclined
and you want to get that reject drip
all over your physical form
that's a place to do it
Boy! That was harrowing, Manubinette.
I knew that. I knew I knew him from something.
Okay, okay. I was waiting for the full-on credits.
The credits were great. They were very ominous.
Now we're into the actual, like, read-through credits.
I'm exhausted.
Yeah.
Whole thing, sound design, score,
still carrowing into my nightmares as we speak.
Yes, keep talking.
I'm just make sure you're still.
the point of focus.
Okay, I did slide around a bit in this
reaction. There was towing, there was froing.
There was twoing and froing. It's all gooding.
All right, so
this was better than I thought it was
going to be, but better has an asterisk
because I mean traumatizing.
It was more affecting than I thought
it was going to be.
Only because I just didn't
I don't feel like I heard about it a lot.
I mean, I remember when it came out
hearing a lot about it. And I remember
like people loving it
but I haven't in the last
15 years heard about it
so with the quality that it was that surprises
me yeah yeah exactly
it doesn't make a lot of vampire lists you know what I mean
like when people are like oh vampire movies
like you have a certain amount of them that they discuss
I get yeah there are a number of
like either classics or
other like really notable
examples that I think get brought up
before this but I thought yeah I enjoyed
this as well and I wasn't quite
I didn't know quite what level to expect because kind of of that sort of non-reputation it seems to have in both comic book and horror movie sort of discourse and whatnot.
And yeah, like I thought that this was a really fun and immediate experience.
If I have any complaint about it, it's mostly just that it's so straightforward that, you know, there's not really a lot of other meat on the bones.
So it makes me wonder what the comic itself was like
in terms of like what greater themes or characterizations
might have been happening.
But just as like the promise of the premise
and you know being certainly like
I like all stripes of horror
and I can certainly get down with some carnage
and some gore.
And I thought this certainly brought that lean, mean,
you know, carnivorous kind of horror.
And it had that in spades for sure.
And I had, you know, like the place, the setting is a character, the cold.
And the contrast between the cold and like when things are burning up and stuff like that.
Like all those things I thought were really evocative.
And I liked the cast a lot.
You know, I thought they assembled both in the characters who, you know, the actors who we know quite well,
as well as, you know, like the various character actors and things.
Like I thought everybody brought a lot of presence and where the script didn't always have necessarily like, again, as much.
thematically happening.
I thought the actors
brought tons of
presence and dedication
to kind of fill in the gaps.
I was behind
Danny Houston
at breakfast,
not a week ago.
And now,
think twice.
I have a very different experience.
I was like,
oh, that's cool.
Like, I didn't say hi or anything.
I was just,
I remember going like,
hey, Danny Houston.
And now,
terror.
Now fear.
Now,
I'm glad I, you know,
reluctantly was like,
oh, is Danny Houston.
I'll be over here.
Because now I'd be running.
I'd be leaving.
2007.
Guys, this was how many years ago?
Well, it'll be 17 this year, which is just a terrifying number.
Oh, no.
That is too many years since 2007.
It feels like 2007 was like five years ago.
I know.
Anyway, my thoughts, I personally don't generally dive into this genre because of how you might
have experienced my visceral reactions to things.
I am very affected.
I'd prefer to stay affected by things.
I think it's good to have a strong fighter flight, but that does mean like,
I'm physically exhausted.
I went to the gym this morning before this,
because I was afraid this would happen,
not knowing that this movie was 60 miles per hour to start
and then accelerates to 200.
It starts at 60, and then it just goes.
7.5,000 people give it four and a half stars.
I agree with those people.
Yeah, this is solid for me as far as like,
it's like an A-minus.
One of the things, oh, there's a sequel.
One of the things you had mentioned was,
you know, the mean of the bone and those elements.
And I think that's one of the strengths for me personally
is I really enjoy a nice commentary
and I really enjoy a nice like
humanity and like those
motifs and horror film that can make you
more introspective and all those things
but I also like when a movie is like
I'm going to use Mad Max as an example
like Mad Max is an action movie that has a lot
of meat in the bone if you want to find those things
but you can also go like movie and enjoy the bombast
this to me I'm sure if I wanted to stop
think about, you know, the journey
of what Josh Hartnett went through and, like, you know,
separation and family. And there's, there's elements
that are there, even if they're not, like, you know,
as much as part of the story, but you can find
that. To me, I really enjoyed that
this was kind of a beat
them up, drag him out, you know,
violent for violent
sake, especially maybe because I don't
watch a lot of this, so this is like, I'm good
for a while. Like, this is probably my
quota for quarter one. Like, I'm
set for violence. I
personally, and I know the comments are going to be like,
But I don't even like watch the raid and shit
Like I don't even like martial arts violence
Oh the raid is so good though
No and I can respect it but I won't throw it on
Like I you know what I mean like if I see a fight scene
And someone like is breaking an arm
It's not joyous for me
Like just my experience of art is like
If there's trauma on screen I'm affected
So I don't like put on movies
And I know a lot of people are like yeah hyperviolence
Not for me personally
But our Serbian film reaction
I mean obviously next week
But then again, like, I will watch Requiem for a dream often.
So, like, it's weird.
Like, I think my exposure to, like, drug trauma is different than, like, physical trauma.
So, like, I have no problem with, like, ass to ass.
Like, I can hit first person I have ever encountered who has not said specifically, I don't need to watch that movie ever again.
I've probably watched Requiem, like, nine times.
But I think it's good for me to be like, okay, don't do it as.
mini drugs you know what I mean like stick with mushrooms
like it's a good cautionary tale
but this is like you know the opposite where it's just like
I'm a beat you up with violence and it's not my thing
but I was able to get so much out of it because it was so like
immediately it knows what it is it doesn't let off the gas
I was worried about 40 minutes in when it had been so brutal
for so long that I didn't know where to go
like my biggest concern was like okay we've got an hour left
because I don't know the runtime like it's probably going to be an hour
and 30 minute movie and it ended up being a two hour movie of
just violence but I was worried about 40 minutes in like how are we in ending act one and we have
more to go so I was really impressed that it stayed so aggressive and stayed so malicious like it's a
mean-spirited movie but the mean-spiritedness doesn't always land well for me a lot of times
movies that are mean-spirited I don't enjoy because I'm like why would I why would I do that to
myself this I love that it was really really mean but just the last 10 minutes there's so much
beauty in that sacrifice there's so much beauty in their love and like even though the
movie is like, screw you, it still, it still lands in a way that-
Screw you audience.
Why are you enjoying this?
What have you done?
Yeah, so I got a lot out of it.
And I really liked that it was very visceral.
Yeah, I usually don't.
Well, yeah, I mean, I think that's, those are some of the greatest strengths the movie
holds.
And I guess that's kind of where, if I'm torn on anything, because, yeah, like, you know,
I agree.
I think it's nice to have a movie that is immediate, again, that is kind of confined to
circumstances where we don't have to cut to like a lot of like oh here's a flashback or something
yeah to explain their lost relationship like yeah i i appreciate the the way this movie is
operating most certainly and i liked again the mood and the characters and whatnot uh and for me it's
yeah i think as a person who watches more of this kind of movie specifically without you know
the comic book tie-in or whatever like this is the kind of thing where i'm like okay cool i've
seen a number of very immediate movies that, you know, kind of use their confined circumstances
as, you know, sort of the whole aesthetic. And, uh, and so, yeah, it's like, if I, if I crave any
more me, it's kind of just because of that, but it didn't, like, ruin the experience.
Yeah, and like, your exposure, the type of film is going to have you seeking maybe more variety
within those parameters that you are more familiar with, whereas, like, this is very different
for me. So I was just overwhelmed. Um, yeah. And I love, like, I mean, Ben Foster's performance was
insane, but I love that everyone
was strong enough that
you, you know, you had those attachments, you had those connections,
you had like those moments, but the movie didn't
have to make you want to have a backstory.
Like, I didn't need to know any more about Mark
Boone's character. Yeah, I didn't,
I didn't either. I would agree with that. It's like, I don't
feel like we need to know much
in terms of like, yeah, like deep dive
in the character, because the point is the immediacy
of the situation. And I'll pick apart shit
and other types of movies that don't do that. I'll be like,
okay, well, we could have, why didn't we? And this
one, I was like, thank you for not.
to be partnering with a brand I've been using for nearly two years now, and that's Harry's
Razors. I'm generally more drawn to anything that goes against the norm, and Harry's does just
that in the grooming world. They saw the high prices in the industry and decided to blaze their
own trail with quality and affordability. I keep a beer, but whenever you see these cheeks in the
neck clean, and that's the work of Harry's right there. Keeps my wife happy and Harris makes it
effortless. Their precision blades, it cuts smoothly with less drag, making every shave satisfying.
And yes, it's versatile for other areas too, you know what I mean? So as a Harry's deep,
I can vouch for their value. You can experience unparalleled comfort and quality in your grooming
routine where exceptional craftsmanship meets affordability, making a smart choice for a top-not
shave without breaking the bank. Their kits and value packs for shaving are unbeatable,
but Harries is not just about shaving. Again, they offer top quality, thoughtfully designed
grooming products, including shampoo, conditioner, and amazing body wash without the premium price.
Quality affordability. That's a thesis of this. Now, these I actually pulled right from my own
bathroom. I regularly use their five-blade razor with a nice way to
handle and their foaming shave gel, man, this deb, it is a game changer. I just like the feel of it.
Now I have to commit to keeping this in my hand the whole time, because I'm not going to go to
the bathroom in the middle of shooting this. The handles, they feel perfectly balanced. And the
razor's sleek design is a classy addition to my bathroom. And the quality of the shave,
unparalleled. Got to reiterate, keep part of my weekly grooming ritual, because their entire
range of products fits seamlessly into my routine. Stephanie no reshoots here. Their German
engineer blades are durable. And refill plans are economical. Rarely use.
the word economical, but I'm using it now.
Plus, their commitment to high customer satisfaction.
And no risk trial makes Harry's a no-brainer.
This Joe really does feel good.
Let me say once more.
Choosing Harry's means quality and affordability.

Thank you again.
Yeah, I think the only thing that maybe I would have, and again, I'm torn, it's good, because
Like each point I come up with a counterpoint of your own.
Yeah, it's sort of like part of me goes, okay, so the most interesting thing about this movie,
the hook of the movie is the premise that you're stuck in a place where the sun will not shine,
will not be out, you know, won't be visible from your vantage for a whole ass month.
And like, that's a great setup.
And then you have these vampires that are so, again, feral and animalistic.
and they were almost reminding me of like
I am legend or something in a way
because they have their own language and their creature like
but they're sort of humanoid they almost feel like halfway between
and I like these little glimpses we got of
you know
you get just these tiny little slivers of like
what their world is like and what their society is like
with a couple lines yeah
the fact that yeah it's like oh you know we
spent so long convincing everybody that we
are you know folklore that we're the stuff of nightmares
that we're not real, that were some kind of fantasy
and we can't let this get out.
And, like, that stuff I thought was quite interesting.
And then you start to realize, like, oh, okay, you know,
every year, I guess, these vampires must migrate
to another, you know, isolated, locked off town
and do this again.
So there were just things about the lore
that it was making me wonder about
and then making me go, damn,
this seems like a unique take on vampires themselves.
And now I'm torn as to whether I want a deeper dive into that
or as to whether
like it's very effective
just letting you wonder
about these things
and you have Ben Foster
who is like
you're like what is this guy
I guess he must just be
like a familiar or something
he's called the stranger
in the credits which I really dug
because he was
he was just a stranger to the town
and he just like ruined lives
yeah I like that we didn't know anything
like his accent was the character development
like you know what I mean
just that drippy
it was like sometimes it had
appellation elements
sometimes it was just so
it just sounded like
scary like in an
unnerving way. It sounded like disconcerting
no matter what he had to say. Yeah, I was like, ah.
The whole thing about him was off.
And yeah, like, what a great hook.
What a great presence. I really liked, especially
like the mounting of everything.
There were times in the middle where I was like, okay,
we're kind of on a repeat cycle
of like, all right, we're hiding out,
and then we move over here. And then we cut
to Danny Houston, and he's got his
vacant look thing going on,
and then he's going to do something crazy,
or there's going to be like a gorse set piece,
and then we're going to move again to
A similar place.
Yeah, next place.
And then we're hiding out.
And then we got to move again.
And then, and so there were times when I would be like, okay, so how are they, how are they persisting as long?
I feel like the only, if I have one actual gripe, it is that they survive this month.
But a lot of the survival happens through editing.
It's like, I don't disagree.
At one point, I thought like, okay, day one through seven is very similar to day seven through 16 or whatever the next.
And then you cut to like, we're on the last day.
And I was bothered by that until.
I realized, like, my back hurts.
Like, I realized, like, I was so tense that I didn't mind because I wouldn't want
them to interrupt that flow to give me more because of the reaction.
So, like, the juice was worth the squeeze that I don't want to go back and think about,
like, the nuance of what I would have done differently.
Because I liked that I was like, good God.
Yeah, and I think that's the thing is, like, the more wrapped up you are in just the immediacy
of the moment, I think, the better this movie plays.
I like that the director looks like one of the vampires.
I know.
He's just a straight mean mugging over here.
Look at that guy's face.
He's so, and that's a compliment.
He looks so intense.
And I'm like, oh, he did hard candy.
This is after hard candy and this is before Twilight eclipse.
What a trajectory.
So he got his bag on Twilight.
Yeah.
And what's he been doing since?
Yeah.
And he's been doing it.
Oh, he did a director of Breaking Bad episode.
He did a Breaking Bad episode.
So he's good.
Well, deserved.
Okay.
So Twilight was his money.
Then he did Breaking Bad to like go back to his roots.
He's done a lot of telly.
He's done a lot of telly since then.
He directed power.
Two episodes of Powers?
That was a Brian Michael Bendis adaptation, a comic that was on the PlayStation Network.
So it never had a chance to do much because it was on a network no one had.
This was literally...
If you had PlayStation Network, you know, just...
Yeah, if you're a PSN, but literally 2015 before streaming was what it was, there was a network on the PlayStation.
And this was a giant, like, $100 million budget show that no one got to see.
What's his name was on?
It had a great cast.
It was Neil Blomkames guy.
Oh, Charlton Coppenter?
Cholto Copley's on a Brian Michael Bendish show
that no one saw.
Damn.
Crazy.
Who was the girl?
I think you opened up Melissa George.
Yeah.
I was also going to ask just what the comic.
Home and away, so she's an Australian.
That's like the soap opera.
Everybody from Australia launches from.
Yeah, yeah.
Heath Ledger was on Home and Away.
That's like the CSI of Australia, where like every actor is on an episode of like
procedural here.
Everyone in Australia is home and away.
Everyone in Britain's on Doctor Who.
run home and away.
Hell's yeah.
Let's see.
And she's a lot of TV.
Light of me.
She's good at dialogue.
Yeah, absolutely.
Yeah, I didn't recognize a lot of the cast,
which I also kind of enjoyed to like,
they're all that.
They're all faces you've seen,
but you probably couldn't name.
Yeah.
Mark Boone, I love popping up and stuff.
What's a man who Bennett?
I know his name.
Yeah.
That was driving me nuts.
I was going to ask what the book itself is like.
Oh, dude, look up like imagery after men who.
Oh, that's ready with Deathstroke.
Yeah, it's okay.
Oh, and he was.
A Zog.
Yeah.
who's the evil guy in Hobbit
Azog the defiler he's like the main villain
Damn
Yeah look up the comic I want you to see the imagery
It's pretty dope all right
But is it is it pretty similar in terms of
Oh yeah it's very black and white leaning
You know there's a lot of contrast
It's got a lot of like really aggressive linework
Stephen Niles wrote it so it's really cool to see that he got
First screenplay screen play credit on this
Okay yeah I mean look at the cover
And that's the thing, too, is I think if you have the knowledge of the book, it's got to be pretty gratifying to see the imagery brought to life the way it is here.
They did such a good, oh, it's a webcomic, the new one.
Because even getting just like little glimpses here.
See, that's what I'm used to that imagery here.
It definitely, yeah, it definitely looks like those swirling snow plumes and, yeah, like the shocks of red.
Hyper-aggressive line work.
Yeah, and I really liked, you know, the mood of the cinematography and the contrasts with the colors and everything and the blood and all that.
and yeah like again i think that's i think that we're we're mainly in agreement in terms of
yeah i think it's like a b plus a minus uh for me as a movie i go like a b like yeah it's like it's
there are a couple things that could push it further into like a territory for me but uh in terms of
yeah just like what do you expect to get from a movie like this and and and what is you know
it trying to adapt you know i i definitely had a good like fun punchy time with this i'm so tired
that's how I know I liked it because I'm like so affected
and like broken and Josh Hartnett again we talked to the top
like he is one of those actors I think doesn't get the credit
he deserves because he started he came out of the gate
with like 10 movies and like he literally was turning down
Superman within like his first two years in LA so I think there was an
element of oh this guy's everywhere and I think people like don't
like that I think a lot of times people are like oh this guy's too much
and I know some actors actually like people I know take a couple years off to get out
of the limelight so they don't like
overwear their exposure
so that way people don't have that reaction.
So I feel like Josh Hartnett taking a couple years off
coming back with a Nolan film and doing like, you know,
a few things after that show he did that
horror show. I think it was really smart of him to
kind of pace his career, but I've always been a huge
heart net fan. I'm really glad like, I mean
Hollywood Homestead was like his fifth thing. It was
opposite Harrison Ford. Like what a
damn. Right. Like you come out the gate
at 20 and you're just like, by the way, I'm a movie star.
And like, to do a buddy cop with Harrison Ford
like at the, at the jump, like crazy.
yeah um god good for heart and i saw i'm hiking once he's good he's a good day see as tall as he looks
he is as tall as he looks he's got that from my recollection yeah i can't find out who the lady vampire was
he looks like she played the nun but anyway she did definitely look like it also they did a really
cool job with the snake image like that i've always thought the uh vampires in 30 days and i did this
very snake like Voldemorty angular and they did a really good job of like replicating that
yeah man see if you said that on the
left there scroll down slightly uh second row see yeah see that like imagery in the left see it kind of
has that energy of like the snakeiness yeah go google some 30 days of night comic cells just just to fill in
this part of the yeah sorry guys to fill in the visual portion it's only page one on google if you
take 30 days of nights comics so you'll see all this stuff it was an idw comic so it's interesting
that dark horse helped them produce the film i got to look into how that collaboration worked out
yeah um but yeah i had a really great time it's not like an a a a a for me but b plus a minus just
my experience during the film and the acting I thought was strong.
As a super immediate like exploitation film with a comic book vibe and a cool hook, yeah, I think
they did a nice job.
Like, yeah, like I said, you know, there are ways in which it could be richer for me.
There are ways in which, you know, you could have added maybe a little bit more to the script
to really elevate some of the elements of the direction or you could have done a couple
other things with the direction to maybe make up for those gaps.
But for the most part, like I said, I mean, you saw the reaction.
having a blast watching this.
So, yeah, like, when I want something lean, mean and straight to the point, like, yeah,
this is something to read for.
You know what I just realized in this moment?
The guy that looks like Dave Batista.
His head was kind of like a shark's fin.
It was.
My hat is the number one comment of the DPC video.
We opened that video with, like, I've never seen this.
I only know this song lyric.
And the audience was, like, someone was so bad that I had got the song learned wrong.
But, like, why would I know if I only know from a lyric?
It makes more sense as a hat.
Yeah.
But I'm guessing it's one of his hat sideways.
It's like a fin.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Or like a beanie.
He squishes the beanie vertically.
And then it's like a shark spin.
Yeah.
Guys, LL, specifically, if you're watching this.
That's the only thing this movie needed.
Please, if L.O. Cool J would have just...
That's the A we were looking for.
The level up.
But yeah, this is an absolute blast.
Let us know in the comments.
Let us know in the comments.
Is there anything else you want us to watch?
I personally would prefer not more.
horror, as you may guess.
That was a lot for me.
Forced us to watch horror.
There's a few comic book movies I actually
haven't seen. I'm going to go through and see if there's anything
that is coming on
an anniversary or something. Because I realize
there are like a couple of lead extradinary gentlemen
like things we've done. I've never seen LXG.
I've avoided it out of respect for
Sean Connery's career because he
chose that instead of
Gandalf.
Did you know this?
No. He didn't want to sign on for like a ton of
movies so his retirement instead of doing
Lord of the Rings, and they were offering him
something like 10% at the back end.
He would be up there with Matt Damon
if he had done Avatar as the two most
successful actors of all time, and they both turned down
those roles. I can't imagine this.
Back end on Avatar turned down by Damon, back
in on Lord of the Rings, turned down my Sean Connery.
So I've never seen Alex G out of
a sense of pain
for the Scotsman. All right, that is going to
do it to Lovellies. Please leave a comment below.
Let us know what role you turned down worth
billions of dollars. Please hit that like,

Patreon button if you want to see this whole thing

video this is up there for wanting
to watch our entire experience because I haven't
seen the edit but I will tell you that was
about two hours of me flailing
squirming reaction had a real hard time I wonder
if I left frame the points I really struggled
sure all right thank you for being here
much love rejection we'll see you next time
