Jay Nelson 2-2-3-9.
I love the real rejects watching the movies and TV shows with you guys
has become a daily thing for me.
This is my first time ever leaving comment asking a question
and seriously can I express enough
how much you guys have become a part of my life
and I feel like you guys are friends of mine.
I love that.
Sienna has become my favorite scream queen of recent years
and Lauren Lavera does such an amazing job
expressing the trauma art caused her in the last movie.
I know I'd be so terrified of this man
trying to get my loved ones or myself
killing us in a horrific way.
I wanted to ask you, how do you feel about his acting the movie?
What's your favorite scene of hers?
Each of you have.
Okay.
Golly.
Oh, about her acting.
Okay, got it.
Okay.
That's a tough one.
Favorite scene.
Yeah, she's just a really great job.
it's tough there's a lot of really good ones yeah when she's talking to gabby after it's clear gabby read her journal i thought that was a really nice back and forth because it's a tough moment and you know she could like totally go off on her and you watch her kind of like manage what's going on explain to her then like the okay well i guess you know now so yeah like there's something wrong with you know i'm dealing with this trauma and you know i
record these things so I can bring them
to people who can help me. It's like the way the scene
was articulated.
I thought of just a lot of the, yeah,
little personal scenes, the mom
and her daughter at the beginning of the movie.
Totally. But for Lauren Lavera in specific.
Yeah, I mean, she had so
many moments. I feel like any scene they gave her
that was just
character-oriented was
super lovely. Yeah.
I think my favorite was
her going off from the podcast girl, putting her
in her place. Yeah, I love that.
Yeah, that was a good one.
And then obviously when she goes to, like, fight,
she looks like a badass.
I love it.
That scene also when she's talking to her aunt
and they're reminiscing about mom.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
She has, like, really good emotional depth.
She can play it really grounded.
I like that about her, too.
Okay, next.
R.C. Flores.
Tara, you made it.
Barely.
I hope you are mentally well, exactly.
The past few movies added more lore
to art,
the demon that possessed Vicky and Sienna and her father.
By the end of Terrified 3,
do you think the lore makes sense?
Does it help make the films more interesting?
I like it.
I liked it.
The fact that the sword is like a thing.
I'm like, that's fun to me.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think, you know, it's funny.
I feel like this did a great job of getting me excited for four.
I feel like more excited for four than I was excited going into three.
Because I feel like it's a true cliffhanger in the way that.
oh we got to get our lick back
rather the second one sort of felt like it was
a resolve with like a little button
this one ends on a oh there's going to be more
because we have to finish this off
yeah right
but yeah I think the lore makes sense
well for the most part
I'm a little I guess a little perplexed
or confused maybe you guys can provide some clarity
on that so whoever his assistant is
that's the demon who's
trying to you know cause chaos
and they feed off of like
tormented souls or like
people that are that are crazy or pseudo killers or whatnot.
I just don't know what art is exactly.
I think they've left that purposely ambiguous,
but like is it the assistant to the demon?
Or is like the art the vessel to whatever the demon that's embodying somebody's a figure is?
That's the part that's a little murky for me.
It does make me excited to kind of,
now that we're all caught up and stuff to kind of go online and see what the general kind of breakdowns or stuff.
Yeah, exactly.
Because I think it's really fun.
fun, you know, it's a nice way to separate these
out, and I think they have a really fascinating
take on how
to do the lore, because
you know, it's a tightrope act, I think,
that they're walking, because if you do too much
supernatural mumbo-jumbo,
and she's the chosen one, and she's
got this magic. If you do too much of that
stuff, then there's no stakes, but I
think, you know, they do a nice job of making these
mostly in the tradition of, like,
grounded is the wrong word, but, you know, like
a slasher movie where, you
know, the only sort of supernatural element seems to be that the killer can be all these places at once.
You know, like a lot of the movie feels more like that, more like something of the real world.
And then they bring in these fantastical elements just enough that they do equate to this interesting peripheral magic to me.
And I like that this one goes on to expound that, yeah, like these are, this is some kind of demonic force.
and I don't know if art is just like a freak of nature
or some kind of hell spawn thing
that's half human and half demon or whatever
like clearly they're you know
she births this head to keep him alive
and his body is sort of its own supernatural thing
and he gets put back together rather than yeah
like a spirit traveling from him to a new body or something like that
so I am curious like about the next step of the lore
And I think that, yeah, they do just enough of, like, the sword is magic.
And, you know, there's some kind of demonic presence at play here.
And Sienna being some kind of chosen by angels figure is like, again, I feel like that could easily be super duper silly.
And I feel like in this movie, somehow they earn it with the tone.
And the whole comic book thing with the dad and, like, all the kind of collective trauma and also impasseled.
that happens through this character
that her dad drew for her, I think, is
a fun thing to lean into
and, too, like, it is conscientious because without
being, like, super
hackneyed, it is, like, playing
to the now in terms of, like,
you know, she's a sort of a superhero
a little bit, you know, she kind of looks like
Wonder Woman a little bit, and,
you know, you get a movie like Black
Adam or something not long ago, like, they're
resurrecting essentially like a big hell
demon guy, so, like, in
a way, it almost feels like they have
subtly taken stuff from like, you know, the popular blockbusters of the now and added it to
this slasher movie to like make it a little bit more interesting and to do a different take
of instead of just the killer is supernatural and that's how they're always undead. It's more
sort of like, no, no, no, like there's a rabbit hole here and there's like a mouth to hell that
opens up at the end. And yeah, and yeah, there's like just enough that's all kept away from
that so that when you come back into it, you're like, oh, damn. Interesting.
I wonder what else is, you know, lurking in the underworld.
Yeah.
And, yeah, I like the idea that, like, the demon is something that her father was grappling with and that, you know, helping kind of, I don't know.
There's enough in there for, like, you to do a head cannon in a way that's not you just, like, making up for them not thinking about it.
You know, like, there's enough for you to wonder about.
Yeah.
So, yeah.
And with all that fantasy stuff, it would be hard to keep it.
It would be easy for people to laugh at it and be like, this is ridiculous.
If you didn't do it the right way, they did it the right way.
Resonant Z, hello, hello.
Hope you guys enjoy the third movie
and huge props to Tara
from making it through them.
Do you think the reputation of the movie
made the movie seem worse than it really was?
Also, does art being funny help you get through
the movie? Have a good rest of your day.
Here's hoping you guys will watch Terror Fire 4-2.
All right.
I don't know.
I didn't know anything about the reputation
of the movie solely
what I heard was Roxy telling me
not to do it. I shouldn't be on this reaction
and I might die.
that was all that I knew of it.
But how about you guys?
Yeah.
I knew to a degree the reputation of these movies.
It's interesting.
Like, I get the sense people love two the most,
and I feel like two does the best job of,
partly because you're leveling up from one to two
in terms of like scale and scope and resources
and storytelling and everything.
So there's like a more impressive jump that you're making.
But also,
I think two has like a really nice blending of
it's like really it really moves and like yeah
it draws you in with the character stuff but you kind of move
quickly from like horrific set piece gore gag to like the next
thing and there's like a snappy rhythm
whereas I feel like this movie
is a little more challenging in a way
because it has like more air in the tone and it moves a little bit more
deliberately and it's like there are
times where you're sort of, especially
the first half of the movie, sort of trying to figure out,
okay, what is the shape of this movie really
and there will be just a number of horrific
scenes playing out and I can see
there being more room and opportunity
for people to quit during this movie.
I think art being
funny does help, but again, with
the pace and the tone of the second one,
I think it helps like more
there, whereas in this one his humor
is still funny to me, but it's also
a little more sickly.
and like this is this felt somehow more depraved and disgusting and like mean-spirited in
the portrayal of the violence and of art than somehow the previous like the previous movie
he still felt kind of like silly and whimsical yeah and uh he really feels like a hate demon
yeah yeah for sure uh but definitely looking forward to four for sure uh definitely for sure uh
I think this movie
I knew that they were messed up
franchise, I knew that this was
unrated, and I knew that people loved
them, and I feel
as though in some ways
it lived up to and surpass
my expectations in some ways
in the sense that
I didn't realize the first one was going to have
freaking like diarrhea
in it. I feel like they cut back
on some of the other bodily fluids and
focused more in the gore as the movies went on.
so in that way he peed on him in this one
and there was a big VOM thing
happening
so we just traded bodily
yeah I mean there was VOM stuff in the last
one too no there was like she like
freaking had
something come out of her you know what I'm talking about
on the train yeah
she like had some pieces come out of her
so it's weird because each of them have
their own little gross things that they come
out of I felt like
and each of them had like a funny kill
for me so it's tough
kind of analyzing them but i think as far as gore goes they definitely got some imagination to
say the least yeah but it it is still really horrible um in a fun way uh sometimes but i think
overall it definitely uh it didn't seem worse i think about on par this has the right size
reputation it's the right exactly it's right there in the middle but as far as art being funny
goes i thought he was less funny in this one than he wasn't the first two yeah yeah for sure
just more depraved but um yeah still uh i don't know what you would call it i don't think
enjoys the right word but i know i had a time i sometimes enjoyed myself and there were some
crazy kills um shout out to that guy's butt cheeks
that was awkward and his peener i think that's it is uh art is funny and charming but i
found that this one did less
charm with him. Like the first two
movies have these weird moments. Like when he's
riding the tricycle in a circle
in the first movie and he balks the thing
and it's like it's kind of charming. Or there are like these
there's still moments like when he's handing out
the toys before the bomb goes off.
Like there are moments in here that are still like
oh here's a little comic strip with art but I
don't think they did that as much here.
Yeah, he crossed the line of chopping up a kid.
Like they took it further than I thought they ever
would. Oh see I never
didn't expect him to
I was like, really, this is where you think they're going to draw the line?
I'm like, I feel like their business is to find the line and then, you know, run a chainsaw up.
It's butt crack.
Damage for life.
T.J.
Hyde and Sarah Friesson, Terry Sheeach's for the short.
What concepts or expansion of any of the characters would you want to see the outcome of fourth and possibly final movie?
Jonathan, justice for Jonathan.
bring him back do some retroactive continuity tell me that they were lying and they just stole his glasses and he's still at school being like where are my glass yeah yes and have gabby come up with the sword somehow this is like i don't know maybe she's not dead and she has a sword the sword saves her i don't know maybe we do a spinoff movie of her fighting demons in hell finding her way back up to earth to then work with sienna to take art down love this love this
I just, sorry.
Oh, no, go ahead, go ahead.
I just saw a movie called Death Stalker.
It's like a sword and sandals, you know, like freaking, you know,
guys in monster suits and, you know, blood and guts and stuff.
You know, like a Conan kind of movie.
And part of me is like, if they made a Terrifier 4 where she is, like,
battling hell demons and you make it almost like some kind of weird red Sonia thing,
I think that would be kind of sick, actually.
That would be dope.
I mean, I watch it.
Hell, yeah.
All right.
Leon 3. This third movie connects
to Terrify our movies to the rest of Damien Leon's
past short horror films such as the Ninth Circle,
which was the first appearance of art
and had plenty of demon creatures, including Satan itself.
Do you all think Terrify 4 may and should show
some of the origin story for art and the demon
that possessed Bicky?
Huh, that would be cool.
I did not clock it when we saw the book, the Ninth Circle.
I did not know that that was his.
So that's a fun little piece of trivia.
Thank you, Leon, for that.
um i mean i would like the origin that'd be fine with me
i wouldn't be mad in origin but i think something that'd be really funny
like right before he finally dies he just like finally is like oh fuck yeah i yeah it's uh
it all depends on what they come up with part of it's like i'm happy to not have an art
origin almost i would be like split the difference like the joker tell me tell me the
Vicky Origin or something, that demon,
not Vicky yourself, but like, you know,
I could
accept a bunch of explanation for
other things and have the joke
be that you never really learn what art's deal
is, but it all depends
on what they come up with, really. It sounds like the
Ninth Circle kind of has what I was thinking of,
or do, yeah, some kind of Dante's Inferno
thing. Yeah,
Terrify for, honestly, I'm not sure, and I do
wonder what the thing with the little girl.
I'm still kind of curious about that, and part
of me was like, oh, is the little girl at the beginning
going to have something to do with that in the prologue not as of this movie but part of me now
because this one does seem like it's more set up for a sequel i wonder if they're like
and bring it in for something because it didn't happen here and it was such a prominent thing in
the second movie and unless there's an explanation for that that i have missed or something
or the little girl oh from the first hallucination little girl and i was like is that just the
demon's essence as it appears in the mind's eye or something or is that a different thing or is that a
once based upon a real actual girl you know uh i don't know i i'm happy to see them kind of change
up the flavor in a they've done like a few different kinds of slasher movie they've done like your
classic low budget thing they've done a Halloween type movie and now they've done like a you know
silent night deadly night christmas thing so now part part of me is like yeah go for another
flavor the next time around fourth of july okay hunter princess
How do you feel this one compares to two?
This is one of the rare good Christmas horror movies out there for me personally.
It doesn't hold up to the second movie.
Huh.
Well, I'm damaged either way.
I mean, I thought that this one had more emotional depth to it.
They were trying to build up the story, I believe, between her and Gabby and her family a little bit more,
showing us that she is human, that there is no way to cope through what she's.
been through she's like seeing things now her life is kind of ruined in a way they hit us hard with
that of like what are the repercussions of what she's been through um so i like that part of the
story and i don't know what you're saying doesn't hold up in the second movie because they cut
through a guy's butthole so and we saw his balls and his penis i think so i think hunter maybe is
just saying that they prefer the second movie.
Yeah, okay.
This definitely holds a candle to the disgustingness of the second movie for sure.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I wouldn't say this doesn't hold up to that.
Anyway, for me, I would say the second movie, I'm chewing on it because I think what
they did here is still interesting, which is nice.
I think the second movie at the outset is the most streamlined and propulsive and
pacing is better.
Yeah, of the three.
Yeah.
And I was always compelled,
but this one does feel like
you're kind of watching vignettes
and things happen,
and then eventually the plots collide.
And I get that, like,
half the movie is the Sienna journey,
and then the other half of the movie
is art doing stuff,
slowly, you know,
making his way back to where Sienna is,
and then things will eventually collide.
This felt like a little looser,
but it is a pretty solid Christmas-themed slasher horror movie.
It has a lot of,
of great aesthetics and stuff like that.
I think it's still strong.
I think it's still interesting.
I might rank it second or, you know,
I think two and then one or three kind of flip-flop in the rank for me.
I'm in the same boat with you.
Yeah, I think the story and structure overall of two is a lot stronger,
but I like the character stuff in this one more than I do in two.
Because, yeah, like, I understood what the mama's coming from,
but I just found are kind of annoying.
And I really appreciate the story.
story of somebody going through something as horrible as the experience of art and trying to
cope with that and trying to find a sense of normal so you know they're struggling and then
not knowing if what she's experiencing is real or if it's just the paranoia from her trauma
and that stuff coming ahead but yeah that being coupled with arts just journey of miscellaneous
murder and mayhem didn't make it feel as cohesive as the first one as the second one did so
I'd probably put two three and one yeah yeah you could agree with that too
has the best pacing for sure um okay should we scroll down because great yesterday was like if it doesn't if
he told us not to read of all of the ones if they said if time i've been hearing about mint mobile ads
for years at a certain point i realized i was the only one in america not saving money with
ryan reynolds full fomo my friends were bragging about paying only like 15 bucks a month
while my old wireless company was charging me enough funds to fund my own independent movie so i finally
yes to saying no no contracts no hidden fees no nonsense midmobile's entire thing is simple premium

So that's what you said for me and Roxy yesterday in a three-person shoot.
Okay, okay.
Because don't you guys have to do four at 4 p.m.?
I'll just go to fun service.
D.K. Lounge, which holiday do you want to see Terrifier 4 take place?
I'm hoping Thanksgiving since there's not enough Thanksgiving horror movies,
and I can totally see art dressed as Pilgrim.
Yeah.
Well, I already threw out Fourth of July, but I don't know.
Kwanza.
Kwanza.
I think we're a little too close to Thanksgiving.
I mean, part of me is like Easter would be very funny.
St. Patrick's Day, there's Lepricon.
I don't know.
They maybe do a new year.
Valentine's Day art.
Like, I don't know.
Christmas is a hard one to top, you know?
And, like, if we're going from Halloween to Christmas,
you've set yourself up in a weird place
because you've done, like, the two big skipstone holidays.
Yeah.
And you've gone to Christmas, so I'm like...
What if it's New Year's?
It could be?
It's just go in order.
The thing is then there are at least...
There's at least one horror movie for every holiday, so...
I don't think the fourth one needs to necessarily be a holiday.
What if it's like summer vacation?
I think they need to go more fantasy.
I think it needs to be like a road out of hell or some kind of real left turn now,
because they've done three kinds of slasher movie,
and this one certainly had that sort of like Rob's...
Halloween 2, like, oh, being the final girl doesn't make you a full on superhero. It's
actually traumatic and you've got to unpack that and it's hard and it's messed up.
So I like all the drama they've done and I feel like if they did something, yeah, I feel like
part four is the time for this franchise. I would like level up in another way rather than
doing kind of a, like they changed how the construction of this movie was and they took a strong
holiday motif
and I think they've done like three
they've extrapolated on the
slasher movie three times now I think
it's time to break a little further out of
the slasher movie mold for part
four I guess I would say
and also do you I think
we all think we want Jonathan
to be alive Leon three we don't have tons
of times because we have a lot of questions but I did see
if you're like oh is Jonathan still alive
we want him to be alive I don't
it could be a thing
that they're prepping for Ford that if he
surprises us i'd be stoked yeah just that real quick yeah i hope jonathan's not dead and i feel like them
having that happen off camera and the skull thing i think yeah right potential for them to be saving
stuff for part four and uh and to your thing above just a real quick uh this is to leon but uh yeah
that's sort of hibernating thing i thought was interesting and him you know yeah like sitting in weight
and you know crewing cobwebs and the demon also like stuff like that i thought was really neat and
interesting so like i hope that they lean more into that primordial ickiness and that sort of i don't know
evil dead like quality and this idea that they're like these sinister forces of nature almost
yeah and aaron did call out during the reaction about the eye so we did notice that and they did
change back once the sword went in at the end yeah so we did we did notice that which i did think was
pretty dope this is the one where he seems the most like unsettlingly scary and mean and sinister
rather than any kind of fun or silly
or anything like that.
You mean.
Cody G-24.
I absolutely love this movie.
I remember watching it for the first time
on Christmas Day last year.
Wow.
What was y'all's favorite scene of this movie?
Personally, it was the mall bomb scene.
It caught me so off guard.
I didn't get as big a lull out of that as his guns,
but I do appreciate that they checked off another thing of like,
oh, wow.
You just brought a grenade to the mall?
Okay.
It's always like kind of disturbingly grounded when they do stuff.
like that in these movies so like that did strike
me but it's hard to beat that shower scene
yeah I love that you're asking me about a
favorite scene from this movie as if
I would have one yeah
the bar the Santa's at the bar
was kind of fun that was kind of a fun
like sketch in the middle of the movie
yeah but the uh the one in the
shower was damn you're like snuff film territory
yes that was totally that was
wild that was my favorite
if I had to pick money yeah
I guess I'll just go
cutting the guy's ball on Pino's off
and JK. Jinkies, I had the privilege of meeting
both Damien Leone and David H.T. during his screening of the film
during the Q&A, Davy said that this was one of
this was the only film in the entire series where he almost threw up.
Yeah, thank you while filming a scene because most people hadn't seen it yet.
He didn't say which scene it was, which when he,
oh, when a guy goes, would cut the guy, the ball the thing, up the butt.
Boom, you're thrown up. I'm thrown up. I'm thrown up.
maybe also the rat in the throat
with the thing down the woman's throat
thing yeah when she's like sputtering
and it's coming out of the tube
and like that that looked really
you had to like really research
something quite specific
in order to get something like that
I wonder if it could be that
I'm trying to think like
the the stuff in the shower
is just so much and it's so over the top
but part of me is like I could see
I don't know
like some of that stuff you don't have to have him on
that for us. Yeah, yeah.
It's a tough one.
Oh,
those ups and stuff. Yeah.
Might be all of them.
It might, I guess my guess
would be the tube and the, yeah.
Okay. I think my favorite
kills would either be, you know,
butt crack or he's like ripping the head
just like the face of his head.
Oh, yeah. Rips the whole skin off that
dude. That was a wild.
After box cutting him.
Ugh.
Okay, Mikkel Morgan.
Now that y'all have seen three movies out of
three, which scene has the best kill for me
It's still the bedroom scene in part two.
You know what?
I'm kind of with you with that on Morgan.
I'll just say your last name.
I'm a little bit with you on that one.
Except butthole.
I don't know if I can get it out of my mind.
That scene was hard to beat in its gruesomeness and composition, as I recall it.
This scene in the bathroom is equally memorable in terms of carnage.
And it takes something that you saw the very first time around.
and kind of slightly recontextualizes it
with greater effects
more relishing the carnage in camera
so that's definitely
like a centerpiece scene of the movie
but I don't know
if it's quite as like well
tied into the rest of the movie as
the bedroom scene in part two
like I like that you have the podcast
didn't watch Halloween 2018
podcasters never farewell
like that was cool but it is one of those things
where it's like oh these two are clearly here because we want
them to die and they're going to die you know and so yeah i think by a hair it's that bedroom
scene but yeah but yeah what do you think did you already say the bedroom scene that you
the gun in the first movie still makes me laugh that was so funny yeah it's the bedroom scene or
the shower scene uh yeah okay i love it um tj what's your opinion dami leone's directing style and if
you think he should tackle another genre or create new stories in the horror realm thank you
thank you tj yeah i would love to see him if he directs anything else out if it's new in the horror
realm that would be dope especially if it's like i his practical effects are like what makes this for me
i do have a great appreciation for all of these films because of that and especially because
the first one he like worked doubled over triple time to come up with all of these effects to show us
and we don't get to see that much anymore so of course i would love to see more
from him. Yeah, it seems like he has an affinity for fantasy just going off of this most
recent movie and a little bit of the last one. So I'd like to see him tackle some fantasy
and put his practical skills to use in that sort of setting. And you can even do like some
practical gore. Maybe, I don't know the line there, you can make it right at R, but I imagine
because it's not real people, if he's cutting up, you know, little creatures and stuff or different
sort of creatures with like purple blood, zombie. That's almost going to be fun as well.
Yeah. Yeah, I'm sure we can get some fun side fantasy action from that.
Could be cool. I'm curious what he would do with like a twisted horror comedy that's more of an overtly horror comedy, not just a horror movie that has laughs in it.
Or like we said before, something that's like sword and sandily akin to like a death stalker or something like that.
But yeah, I think his directing style is quite nice. I mean, like these movies have grown in terms of like the first movie was a nice display of like, okay, you can.
take limited means and work within them to create something that clearly caught on.
And then the other ones level up in their visual language and his attention to performance and stuff like that.
So, like, I think he does have a nice eye for things and some, you know, nice visual language without being too hammy about it.
So, yeah, I like his directing style generally, at least as these are evidence of.
And, yeah, I'd be interested in some kind of icky sword and sandals or a horror comedy or something like that.
sure Alan Smithy
are you guys all right just checking in on you do you need
hug yeah yeah we all do
I'll take a hug but I'm good
they're all good groovy hugs to you
Jay Rushden question will you play
the new Arcade Terrier game
the game
is sideways scroller beat up
not sure about that
was sentence Jay but it comes out
okay it comes out October 17th that's cool
they might yeah get me in the arcade
for Artcade get them there
Reject gaming.
All right.
Callowen, this will be my first watch-along.
Oh, that's awesome.
I joined the She-Jex, so I'm excited.
Love that.
I feel like Art the Clown is sort of spiritual successor to Freddie Kruger.
Yeah, in both humor and style of kills.
Which do you think wins at the comedy club?
Oh, God.
Probably art.
Like, Freddy is just, I think art.
I think because of his miming and his, like, I think art.
That's a random ass and great act.
question, Callowen.
Excellent question. I honestly
don't know. I think it's neck and neck.
Yeah, it might be. I think they have equal
opportunity to slay and bomb.
It's the thing. Like, Freddie, definitely
as those movies go on, his jokes
and punnier, become hamier
and punnier. And
art, I mean, big respect for the
wordless art of clowning
and miming. But I could
imagine that either, yeah, going
over really well or
not at all going over well,
And I think either way, the audience is not going to make it out of that theater.
Yeah, I agree.
I haven't seen The Nightmare now.
That's right.
So I can talk to it.
I'm biased.
He's going to go with art.
Okay, Liam, 03, you're saying, you're asking if we will watch All Hells Eve.
It's a horror anthology movie that compiles many of Damien Leone's short films and features Art the Clown.
I'm sure that we would love to.
Not sure if it's on the schedule, but we'll keep it in mind, Leon.
I'm sure it's already on their mind to schedule that.
Let's go to D.K. Lounge. Fun fact, this movie is currently the highest grossing, unrated film of all time.
Previously, it was the Beyonce documentary at $44 million until Tower Fire 3 premiered number one opening weekend, first making $18.9 million, and we go on to make $90.3 million overall on a $2 million budget.
That's how you do it. Also, because I've seen a lot of reactors get confused as to why CNN's hands regenerate from the cuts from her sword. In the flashback, I called this.
Her dad says the story was made for her
I can't kill her
Which is also why she came back to life
After being stabbed by it in the previous movie
I'm with you
That's what I was like can't hurt
Can't hurt
It's tight internal logic
Yes
You earn your supernatural mumba jumba
Love that DK Lounge
Thanks for that I had no idea
Highest grossing unrighted film of all time
Go go go Damien
Hell yeah good for you buddy
Okay do we have any last thoughts
Before we get out of here
this has been fun
in all aspects of the word
we had a really good time watching this
from Tara and
John here and yeah
maybe we'll get to watch more
terrifier someday
yeah it's fun to see such a geek show and such a
schlockfest treated with like an earnest
sense of character
and like filmmaking that
clearly observed a number of different
horror traditions and just traditions of
movies. It was fun getting the array of things
they're hearkening to here, the Christmas side of
horror. And yeah, just
interested in more. Hats off. All departments
showing up.
Yeah, man. I really enjoyed our time
here together, and I'm going to miss squirming
with you guys as the
weeks go on until Terrifier 4 someday
comes out. We shall see, but when
it does, we will be here for you.
Even I, even me,
even though you might find
me later, crying in the corner. Okay,
we love you guys. Leave a like, leave a
tell us what you think all of your thoughts tell us you love us we will see you on the next one
