This week on the program, is this one of the worst soundtracks to a motion picture of all time?
It's Queen of the Damned. I'm Andrew Jupin.
Steven Siddick.
I'm Eric Siska.
Um, up to, um, abuduna.
Why do we?
Wait, wait.
Wait, wait. Is a minion here with us?
And we hate movies.
Hello,
Hello, everyone, welcome to we hate movies.
Thank you for tuning into our fine little program, as always.
If you're new to the show,
we are smack dab in the middle of our
2020 listener request month
in where you, the listener, have requested
what us, the entertainer,
decides to watch. And my God,
this week, it's Queen of the Dam from 2002
directed by Michael Rumer.
I will say up front,
I will admit to seeing this in the theater.
Whoa. You know,
perchance to spy a lady, man.
I mean, that's, you know. Big Alia fan.
Rock the boat. No, I was not a big.
a Galea fan. I was a fan of the
lady friend that I was taking in the
movie theater at the time.
A little date boy over here. A little date boy.
Yeah. How'd that go?
Not great, but I
have a feeling looking back, it may have had
something to do with this movie. Because this movie
sucks shit. It's really bad.
It sucks shit, man. I did not remember
it being this bad. Imagine a vampire
that instead of sucking blood sucks
shit.
That's out there.
So that's just alone the vampire, huh?
And how it is I who will live forever.
Why is your castle nothing but glass tables?
Castle glass table.
Yeah, this movie is, I'm not going to say a sequel,
but it is a continuation of the Anne Reis-Lestat saga.
Maybe it would be imagining, possibly?
Well, because this is based on the next two books.
So interview with the vampire, the Vampire Chronicles was interview with the vampire.
the Neil Jordan film with Tom Cruise
and Kirsten Dunstan Brad Pitt
and Antonio Banderas. It's funny
they don't bring it up. I write some interviews
about this movie and they never bring it, but
Anne Rice toured with corn for
some time to get into it
while she was writing
the novels there.
I guess I was reading that she literally
was like begging them to not combine
these two books into one thing.
And they were like, fuck you person who created this.
You could suck shit too.
Well, it was a thing where what I was reading was
was like the rights are running out
kind of a movie.
Yes, yeah, the clock's
till midnight to make a movie.
It's the fucking Roger Corman Fantastic
Ford mess all over again.
Exactly, which happens a lot. I mean, I think that's why
that other Fantastic Four movie also kind of
came out. Speaking of a suck and shit.
Michael Reimer, by the way, it's a director, not
rumor. Rimer? Fuck you.
Auto-correct on this iPad, dude, this auto-correct
thinks it knows everything. Rimer has it.
I wanted to say, Rimer has it.
Just because he was a big BSG guy.
He did the miniser. He directed the
series and a bunch of episodes. Oh, shit.
Wow, he's better on TV.
He's much better on TV than in this.
And I think the guy who
did the score with Jonathan Davis did
the theme for Battlestar Galangica.
Oh, did he really? Oh, God.
Bear McCready? No, no, no.
Somebody else did the theme. Interesting.
Yeah, that's why the
Bacca boom, back a back a
part of the Battlestar.
That's the one that
hit me like a sledgehammer. It was like
I had completely forgot that Jonathan
Davis is the singing voice
for a Stor Townsend, which is
ludicrous. It looks so insane.
Vampire powers, being sexy,
singing like corn.
By the way, Tom Cruise
apparently was approached to
reapprised as well, yeah, of course you
would approach him. So they were dying
to make it a sequel, I want to. Well, because
Tom Cruise A is a vampire. Have you seen
that guy lately? Sure. I know it's insane.
He's been sucking shit as all. No, I'm kidding.
He was a beautiful. Whatever.
It would make sense if Scientology was just
umpires yeah that would make a lot of more sense to me yeah i would sign up instantly by the way
steve's been trying to get something out for 10 just just thinking about jonathan davis because i um
to get in the mood of doing this episode i listened to hell yeah a little bit of corn on the train
and i got to tell you i am bummed out about going to this show i am legitimately bummed out
i don't think we announced it on the air yet but we are doing a thing on patreon.com slash
We ate movies where we're going to do a post corn show review.
Yeah.
We're going to see corn.
But yes.
I want some stuff from self-titled.
I want some life is peachy.
I don't want all these post-issue stuff.
Wow.
All I know is about following that leader and that is it.
I'm sure we'll also talk about Faith No More.
That's also playing.
Who are an actual good, great band.
Right.
So it should be a lot of fun.
Yeah, I just was listening.
It was on Spotify.
You know when you hit the top of whatever a band is and you'll go
through like whatever their biggest
hits are and it was like
and got the life played twice
and I was like
shit man I hope
Fieldy comes out to do his cover of lowrider
by himself I hope I hope all of
those words happen I hope every
one of those words come through
before the horse gets really
out of the barn we should play the call
thank you I've been trying to get to that
this episode
or this movie that we're making
this episode on today was requested
by a fellow named John from Ohio
Let's hear this guy.
Hi, this is John from Ohio, and I want to suggest 2002's Queen of the Dam.
This movie, oh, my gosh, it has bad late 90s, early 2000 special effects.
It's got bad late 90s, early 2000s, new metal.
I mean, there's so much to pick apart.
There's some tragedy involved with the film, but I just think there's enough about the movie not related to it.
that is just prime for WHM to tear apart.
All right, thank you.
Bye.
Thanks a lot, bud.
This is great.
I'm so excited to be talking about this movie.
The tragedy is referring to is actually the tomato meter.
Oh, no.
What was the percentage there?
I think it was low.
Probably like a six.
I don't know.
I didn't look at it.
I just assume it's bad.
You got me an IMDB rating?
No, I do not.
Do you have an IMDB rate?
It was very low.
I think it was shocking.
To not get a six on IMDB, you've got to kill somebody.
Your movie's got to really suck shit.
Really? It's true. Everything on there is at least six.
Because there's all those nerd pieces of shit out there who like vote for things that are bad.
What's great about those nerd pieces of shit, they also do this with the Tomatoes score, whatever, who gives a shit.
Is by the way, guys, you're the only person filling that shit out.
I watch movies and I don't run to IMDB or Rotten Tomatoes.com to add what I think about them.
No, we run the letterbox like adults.
But I'm just saying average people in general don't even do that.
They don't do letterbox.
Don't do anything.
5.3 on the IMDB.
It's on the lower side for sure.
Also, obviously, yes, there's no reason to discuss it outside of this point,
but six months after this movie Raptor Leo was killed in a plane crash.
There it is.
But that doesn't matter here.
This movie, yes, Stuart Townsend, here's a question.
has he ever been worse?
Who is Stuart Townsend?
He is the guy that got fired off
a Lord of the Rings
and replaced with Vigo Morton.
Oh man, not old enough to play Eragorn.
That's got to kick in the notes.
That's the story that is told
to save his career.
It was like he got on,
he got to fucking New Zealand.
Apparently he did like two months
of like horseback riding
and all this shit.
And then Peter Jack's like,
we got to get him out of it.
Oh my, we got to get him out of here.
He's going to sink the whole fucking listen to me.
I'm free.
I get panicking.
I get panic attacks.
I get panic attacks.
I got an offer for the new mission impossible.
It's Lord of the Rings, though.
I've got to take it.
I got to stay here and go through it.
No, no, no, no, no.
You should take that.
You should take any job you can get.
You should be on Queen of the Dim.
Go do Queen of the Dim.
I think the last time we saw Mr. Stuart Townsend,
he was portraying Doreen in the League of Extraordinary Gentlemen previous episode,
which came out the following year from this movie, by the way.
But I remember he was in, he was in and directed that movie Battle in Seattle.
Oh, boy.
Back in like 2007.
No, he's been, he's a terrible actor that's pretty good looking.
So he's worked consistently for the last 20 years.
So don't worry about that.
Yeah.
He, well, yeah, let's see.
Yeah.
Not like things.
No, I mean, he hasn't hit the video game.
Because he's terrible.
We're working in television.
he was on elementary, he was on, of course, on SVU,
got to get that in there.
Oh, he was, I didn't know this,
because who was possibly watching this,
that 13, the series show?
Listen, he's doing horseback training.
Could we get an orc to scare the horse?
Could we get an ork to scare the horse?
Best case scenario, he breaks his collarbone.
Worst case scenario, he's dead.
Either way, it's not in the movie.
We can feed him to the horse.
he's dead body we could chop it up
I could live with a Christopher Reeve situation
Wait a second
What is even happening here
So there is
Apparently in 2005
He starred 10 episodes only
In a remake of Colchak the Nightstalker
Playing Colchack
And then at some point
Crackle
I don't know but wouldn't be shocked
However at some point
because it's just the picture on IMDB fucking
Tobo was in an episode I like that
gotta check this out
smells like doom to me
I was looking up supernatural clues
for Colchak the nut stalker
about 15 years back
oh David you brought up
Colchack now Stuart Townsend was
terrible it took us 20 minutes
to do three lines of dialogue
look at this though
Aeon Flux League of Extraordinary
gentleman. He's awful.
It just keeps worse. And I mean, this is
Stewart Townsend show. At least League of Extraordinary
Gentleman, you've got like you've got
Connery there. You've got
you know, people around. People with screen
presence. There's a problem with this guy is
I get nothing. I look at him. I get
nothing. What I love about this
movie is it
so it is sort of an indirect
sequel to interview the vampire. It takes place
after that, obviously. My question
because I have not watched that movie in a really
long time. Does that movie
end with Tom Cruise going
into this sleep that
he's been in for a hundred years? No,
he was asleep because if something
happened, they spiked his shit and then they had
him and Brad Pitt and Kristen
doesn't spike his shit. They leave the country
but then at the end he comes back
in a fun scene where he kills
Christian Slater. That's what I thought.
Okay, yeah. So they just are
pretending like that didn't happen. I guess
so. Because he says he's been asleep since
like 1902. He says he's been asleep for 100 years.
Well, because the music wasn't
good enough until New
Metal came out. Who the
fuck thought that this
was a good idea? Like, sinking
this vampire movie into
the world of New Metal. He heard Mudvane
from the grave and that was
it. He had to come back, baby.
Well, that's the thing is like, you know, he
listened, the 60s didn't do it
for him, the 70s, the
doors, eat my ass, didn't care for the
Zeppelin, didn't want to get the let out.
No. Aerosmiths, fucking
name a rock band in the 19-year.
didn't do it. Wasp.
The wasp definitely
didn't do it, dude. The reason he's into
new metal here is because that's what the kids are
into. It's at the height of its powers.
Everyone's talking about Jonathan
Davis. I guess so.
This is probably the most
new medley movie of all time, right?
I mean, even more than Daredevil.
Oh, I was going to say it's more new medley than
Dracula 2000. Yes. Better
movie, by the way. Dracula 2000?
Yes, absolutely. No doubt about
100%. It's one of the worst things I've seen for this
program it's up there it was just it was one of those things that where i i really did not remember
it being this bad yeah and so when that happens to me like you know watching something as a
going on 36 year old man and i'm like like what was wrong with me like how terrible like this
movie was making me question so much i mean that's i mean eric is right like the time it was
new but everybody was new metal crazy so a movie where new metal is the the the the the damned
music. Yeah. It kind of
you don't really notice how stupid it is
but when you come back to it. Oh yeah. And notice
that Jonathan Davis is
I mean, New Metal
aged so poorly. There's
no high watermark for new metal.
We live through a time. There is. It's called the
deaf tones and you're going to shut up again. But was
I thought the Deftones came before
like New Metal proper. Well sure
adrenaline I think came before the
wave but like so they had some
early seeding.
But like Jonathan Davis was
say that like the deaf tongues were an influence on corn they like work they were like at the same
time they were contemporary yeah they're contemporaries like my own summer is for sure a new metal
song uh-huh all right fair enough kavin you know where maybe we will all reapprise new metal
when we see this concert on september 3rd dude imagine we go to this show and then come out just being
assholes like we're turned into assholes who like new metal what do we become assholes or
something i was trying to say before it's like we lived through a time where new metal was just an
you know it was just everywhere you didn't even notice it so when this movie came out when
the one with jet lee came out yeah when all these movies had it in their soundtrack
it didn't seem out of place no not at all now it does now it seems insane that you would do this
and you're totally right eric and i think that's completely fascinating that at the time we just
like like you totally ignored it in one ear and out the other well i was into new metal very i'm not
going to pretend that i wasn't i mean i just now looking back i just can't and i still have like
nostalgia for it like i'll put on a limp biscuit album and i'll be like wow this was this is what i used
to listen to man and you think about it and you're like that sucks but it's there is it three dollar
bills y'all or is it significant oh signalling oh yeah that's got scott wylan
wait you guys are talking about limp biscuit album we're talking oh yeah yeah totally what was
chocolate starfish in the hot dog water that's that's the third one that's they jumped the shark
for the say that wow what was scott wyland doing on that album he did he did a guest track there's a lot of
guess you're a method man on that lip biscuit method man
rock in the house y'all and together now yeah all end
together now my friend horrible time to be alive just all around
terrible now being a new metal person now is like the saddest thing in the
it's like the juggalo's without the loyalty
so but you're you're saying you're you're proud
proud one though an ex new metal head yeah you used to do said the
deaf tones good band yeah yeah i mean just because i like one band
from a genre. We have gotten comments that people
do agree with you. I know about the death time.
They're correct. People love the death tones. I'm not
that familiar, but what I've heard of them
that track on law-abiding citizen.
Did not care? Might as well be slipped down. There's a big
musical cue in this movie. Yes.
When it's the sex scene
between him and Alia. I have to say
if there's one positive thing to say about this movie,
that's sexy, not too shabby.
So he is, he skips, grunge happens. Kirkobain
blows his head off, not making
any noise in the crypt. Nothing yet.
Didn't want to skank his way out of the tomb.
Right. Kirkobane became the invisible man.
Early Electronica, really didn't do it for him.
Didn't like the Chemical Brothers, nor was he
much of a prodigy man.
But once they get into that dropsy,
chag, chag, chag, chag, chag, chag, chag, chag, chag, chag, chag.
Those big bases.
This movie definitely starts with, like,
you know, being a vampire, isn't it all
that it's cracked up to be monologue?
from him and you're like fuck you
you're sexy forever you're constantly
fucking you can eat whatever you want
fuck you 100 year naps
sign me up totally my god
I would if I if I just think if I was a vampire
and you know I was due for a hundred year nap
right now is a perfect time
to turn in settle in just to turn in
make sure it's in a bomb shelter dude
just in case
you want to be sleeping in a rickety church
if I was a vampire I would look like
Mr. Bean getting ready for a long
just nap I'd have a fucking sleeping cap on and a teddy bear and I'd be like see you
fuckers in a century that teddy bear was fantastic it was um so he gets he wakes up also he's
doing which Tom Cruise does not do an interview of the vampire which I saw two years ago ish
um does that hold up yeah it's it's a totally good movie it's a middle of the road it's a hangover
movie for sure uh-huh it lasts forever um but you know him being really fun in it he is
really fun and Brad Pitt's good in it and like
so is Stephen Ray Antonio Banderas
you know all that's true
Neil Jordan directed it yes
yeah it's got it looks it looks good
it totally holds up
but what Tom Cruise is not doing in that movie
is a Dracula accent which
Stuart Townsend kind of is it's like
I don't know what we do like it just
he gets a little Dracula's
I was really trying to figure out what the hell we're doing here
because he's Irish but he's not
doing that no well yeah well no
it breaks out a few times towards the ends
I heard some a little breaking out.
But yeah, it's a chameleon.
It goes back and forth.
Depending on who his scene partner is, I think it changes.
So he basically says, like, you know, the scene was dead until things started to sound pretty good.
And it's new metal.
So he wakes up and he's in New Orleans, or Louisiana area at least.
And he, like, basically storms into this barn.
where this shitty band is rehearsing
and is like,
and now I am your lead singer.
And then they're like,
you can't sing.
And he's like,
um,
back,
and they're like,
oh my God,
the best thing I've ever heard.
You would hear the sound
of angels crying.
That is an excellent new metal lyric.
And then he's like,
hey,
you guys want to be vampires.
And they're like,
fucking obviously.
Does he turn these people though?
Yes, he does.
Does he?
He says so, right?
That's why he calls him his children.
I don't think he does, though.
I think it's more of a,
now you're just my slaves
play this song kind of shit.
Tom Waits and
Drag and Browns Starr.
A Renfield.
Yeah, because you never see them
like using vampire powers.
Yeah, I guess you might be right.
Because he's just like, he goes and
the whole thing of this story
you know, for the film.
Such as it is.
Yeah.
Is that he,
from the jump is like determined
to,
pull the curtain back on vampire culture and he wants vampires to go mainstream. It's a real
true blood thing by the way. It is. No, definitely. Because he's finally living like openly as a vampire
he's living his best life. He's like introduces himself as I'm the vampire list out. He's like,
I shouldn't have done that, but I'm doing it. That's what he tells these people in the band. He's like,
by the way, I'm a vampire. And they're like, yeah, okay, dude. And then he starts doing his like,
now I'm over on this side of the room vampire trick. And they're like,
all right cool and then without any of the you know typical rock and roll band like we're going
to start playing some clubs here and there maybe get an EP out no start with some cover
songs they're just instantly famous yeah super the biggest thing in the run this is their debut album
debut album redeemer is the name of the album excellent did you hear that fucking song did you hear
it wouldn't you go fucking nuts if you heard that song was it the deaf tones no it's not the
Deftones.
The Deftones is the sex scene song.
I did, because I wanted to listen to some of that on the way up.
But apparently, the soundtrack, the movie, the actual, whatever their band name is.
They, aren't they just called the Vampire La Stott?
They're like, welcome to the stage, the Vampire and the Stott.
The Stott and the Suckers.
That would rule.
That's pretty great.
The Vampire La Stott and the Suckers.
We suck.
Yeah, yeah.
No, but apparently Jonathan Davis couldn't be on the soundtrack for whatever legal reasons.
So they got like Wayne Static, Chester Bennington, and others to do those songs.
They got a lot of Static X in this movie.
There's a lot of Static X.
Wayne Static and Chester Bennington were the two names that I recognized on that bit of IMDB trivia.
And then after that it was like, bowl.
Yeah.
And there was like another three names.
There's the guy from Orgy, I think, was involved.
Oh, that checks out.
I think that's the early song. I think that's the opening song.
Oh, does it be able?
Totally. Remember that one, guys?
Yeah, like, he did a cover song.
Here's a bag of money for your cover song.
This is from Opticon.
The guy sounded awful.
He did. He was not a good boy.
Even Jonathan Davis sounds kind of better.
Well, I mean, that's the problem with John.
Jonathan Davis, it's like that whining,
and the lyrics are really whining.
And I'm like, dude, you're fucking 300 years old.
Like, you're not a teenager anymore.
Like, it's kind of embarrassing.
You're the vampire list of.
Well, the average, like, a person,
like you live to a thousand years old,
you know, old white guys,
I always want to start a band, right?
Yeah, yeah.
So it makes sense.
Vampire would want to do that.
I'm just, I think the point is, though,
the lyrics for the band,
the Vampir de Stott are quite terrible.
Because it's a lot of just like,
you don't know what you've done to me
and the big issue is that he's supposed to be giving out big
secrets of the vampires in these lyrics
I'm like what the fuck did he give up
there's a press conference which is kind of like the next big scene
which is like it's the band is there
and Stuart Townsend is on like a big TV
and it's like this like fucking the Beatles
in America kind of press conference
and this one woman is like
excuse me aren't vampires not supposed to give away
their secrets. I'm like, where the fuck did that
come from? I never really heard of this.
There was a song
that he put out that said that it could admit
that they suck shit.
If you
stick us, we died.
Garlic, garlic,
garlic, garlic, garlic,
garlic. And a
crucifix. We kind of smell like
peas.
Nobody knows
these. We kind of
smell like peas.
But you're right, though.
I never heard that, like,
you couldn't give it out.
It was a pretty great song.
Way better than anything,
corn ever did.
Yeah, I never heard this.
No, yes.
They're not like magicians.
Right, yeah.
And he's like, oh, if you want to know
the real secrets,
maybe I'll invade your room tonight.
And I was like, oh, that's a scene
that's going to happen.
And it doesn't.
No, definitely not.
He should have had sexual intercourse
with that reporter.
Yeah, or killed her.
I almost thought she was the girl
on the woman on the park bench
at the end. Oh yeah.
They look from the similar. Yeah, I don't think
so though. Just because who knows?
Yeah, I mean. Oh, yes. I see what you're
saying. I don't think it's the same person.
I don't think so, but I was like,
what?
This, uh, you get a glimpse
somewhere around here of like a music
video that they made. Oh yeah, man. It's just
like the cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
Dude. Oh my lord.
Stop it. Just stop it.
Come on. What sucks is though, like
that is a thing.
that like in the real world also
existed. Oh for sure. Of course.
And it just reminded me of all that putrid
shit. Rob Zombie definitely
did this and he gave it to a stat
and so just change it around a bit so the teacher
doesn't know it.
It was like videos for
bands like tool but they didn't have the money
to have the claymation shit.
And so I guess also the other thing
though is he's basically daring
other vampires to come out
like you know join me in the world
I fucking dare you like we're doing
this big show in Death Valley, California.
That's so cool.
Death is in the name.
Oh, right.
Fucking crazy.
Isn't that fucking crazy?
They're going to have a Frankenstein afterwards, too.
All the monsters are going to play some songs.
Wolfman's doing a DJ set.
Making fucking Halloween.
It was the mash.
It was the monster mass.
Boom, that.
So if vampires are new metal,
I guess, would
werewolves be scah? Is that how that's going to go?
I think the skank and werewolf.
That's a movie. Oh, what? Jerry, the
skank and werewolf? Absolutely.
The mummy is R&B, I think.
Oh, nice. Yeah.
I can see that. Right, because he moves all
slow, so it's just, you know.
Slow jams.
His voice is as smooth as his ribbons that are
over all over his body.
Oh, yeah.
I guess
Frankenstein would have to be hip hop then.
know just to I don't know I could see that I know what creature from the black
lagoon or Gilman depending upon what you're talking about those dudes are just
exclusively listening to fish that's it we like to draw music
dude that is freaking me the fuck out how are you doing that just the thing
don't give away your secrets dude I'm a vampire vampires can make excellent voice
impression
but underneath the water.
Yeah, when we met Steve,
he was a shape of water guy.
And we were, like, feeding him pickles and eggs
in college, and then we broke him out.
Then we fucked him.
Well, you got him.
Yeah, yeah.
Try it out.
We sat in a movie theater for a little bit,
and then we fucked him.
I don't like that song.
It's 20 minutes long.
So he has this dude,
Roger, who's like this scumbag record executive.
and this is where you see we get a little scene here of him being a nefarious sexy vampire because
Roger this guy he's like ah come right this way ladies yeah the vampire the stat's just right around
this door it's like these two babes they're super hype to meet their favorite dude who's not put
out a record yet but they love him anyway yeah uh and he's like you know the the woman like
tries to make a move on him and he's like no no no no and like let's do this instead let's
crawl on the floor like dogs
and then he starts crawling up the wall
and you're like oh okay vampire powers
blah blah blah he kills these two women
this shows you the difference
one of the many differences in this is an interview of the vampire
is that nobody wanted
to be in this movie like
interview with the vampire deep cast
even Dracula 2000 pretty deep cast
oh Omar Epps is in that movie Johnny
Lee Miller
FYE's
FYE's involved
Christopher Flomber
Was it Tower Records?
I believe it was Tower Records
Also, and then what's her face, of course.
Vitamin C herself.
But like nobody is in this movie.
They couldn't even get vitamin D.
Jesus.
Because I hate the sun.
Is that the porn starvers?
It's a vampire joke.
It was, so Stuart Townsend,
Aaliyah, this was only her second motion picture
after Romeo must die,
which is a great movie, I think.
I thought you're going to back me up on that.
I like it.
Oh, all right.
I haven't seen it forever.
I saw it when it came out
and I was not impressed, but I don't...
I guess, all right, maybe it doesn't hold up.
I don't know, though.
I remember the time really long.
It's a hangover movie.
It's fine.
I just don't love it.
So then, so that's those two.
Keep going.
Like, let's try to do it without look at IMDV.
Vincent Perez is the, one of, is the latter crow.
Yes, he was the crow in Crow City of Angels.
Yes, you got that.
You've also got Alina Olin, who I don't even know what she's doing in this movie.
she comes up three times
and I'm like, who are you?
And she's like by far the classiest actor
in this movie. And you're like, what is
this? Well, she's at the hammer. She's the
and Linda Olinn. She's good, but like, what is she doing?
Barely in this movie is what she's doing. Yeah, so
yeah, there's not a lot of people, including these two
women that are murdered. Then we cut to
what is just like the first part of a
totally useless thread
in this movie is this Jesse
character. Yes. So Jesse
She's played by the woman from Wet Hot American Summer.
A mighty, an ex-Mighty Duck?
Yes.
She's also a...
Oh, yeah.
Ducks.
And she's doing this whole thing where it's like...
She sort of remembers, like, being raised by Lina Olin after her parents died or something.
And then it's like, okay, now she's, I guess, auditioning to be in this vampire studies research group or whatever the fuck.
This whole, like, research group is like, we want to do Van Helsing, but not.
So it's going to be a fucking...
Don't want to get sued.
The Telmaska Center for Paranormal Studies.
Thank you.
Call it what it is.
It's a syndicate.
Headed by Ray Stans, actually.
Welcome to the Talmaska Institute.
We're going after the Vampire Lastat.
You have to buy a certain amount of used books first.
Listen, I am hunting the ghost what gave me a blowjob.
She's got to be out there and she's into my hog.
This is for her.
Baby, come back.
Miss him, baby, you can blame it all on me.
No way, dude, he does not perform any music live
unless it's the bo-b-b-b-b-blues.
Oh, and by the way, the actress's name is Marguerite Moreau
from Wet Hot.
She played Katie.
And she's in some of those, the continuations of Wet Hot.
Also, yeah, but this whole three, I'm just like,
I never thought I'd be saying this,
but where the hell's Stuart Townsend?
And then, oh, sorry.
They have the Star Trek thing where they can't interfere.
Don't know what that is.
I'm like, oh, great.
So here's a syndicate that does all this fucking research on these incredible things and can't do anything.
We mustn't not interfere unless we find the ghost that gave me a blowjob.
And then interfere mightily, friends.
You're going to have to hand me roses and I'm going to have to really impress her.
We're basically going to do Serenot de Bergerac, but it's with the ghost with what gave me a blowjob.
Clear out Chipriani.
I don't know how to do it, just do it.
I don't know how to do it.
That's not her.
That's not her.
All right, that's close enough.
Get sucking.
We'll keep looking.
That's all I want it.
This is him yelling at ghosts.
All these years are searching just for another suck job.
You know when I was young, I thought I wanted to bust ghosts,
but it turns out I just wanted to bust nuts.
So I became an amateur porn star.
Aye, gang, gang, gang, gang, race dance.
Don't cross the streams.
I'm shooting some ropes.
All right, I'm back to Ray Stand's Ghost Hunter.
I will sleep in this haunted mental institution
and hopefully get a blowjob.
It's just him.
You see the night vision and he sort of like loops his head up from the pillow.
Nothing yet.
He just huds and takes his dick out and he's like,
are yours?
What are you waiting for?
Ray, are you okay?
I saw something move.
No, I just got an erection under the cover.
I was thinking about the ghost that gave me a suck job.
Uh-oh, a ghost eat to my ass.
Nang, yang, yang!
All right, let's do more searches like this.
Forget the blow job.
This is great.
Slimer, get those hot dogs out of there.
That's where I left those.
So she's giving like a presentation where she's basically saying like,
hey, I'm pretty sure that this fucking old bar in, you know, foggy old London town
is actually a vampire coven.
we got to go check out and they're all like pissed off because they're like you're a fucking
trainee yes you're not supposed to go on what do they say like you're not supposed to go on site
missions or whatever i'm like you need just the littlest bit of explanation about what this
organization you need someone with some charisma get an old weathered actor to play the head of this
what who's the closest you get is this dude david who's paul mcgan who was and i in with mail
yes you had christopher bummer and dracula 2000 just get him back that's what i'm
saying, though, and I
versus Chris Plummer, dude.
I mean, Dragon 2000, again winning.
I will stop a thousand tweets. He was also
Doctor Who for anyone who, like, an
older. I'm sorry, Steve, I was born
in the United States of America. I don't
care. I'm aware of that. I just want to
stop some tweets. No, I read it. He was the eighth doctor
or whatever the fuck. But again, like, no,
but he does not have the
gravitas to send this where it needs to be,
because he comes in there like, oh, it's David,
and everyone's talking about David for a while.
And then it's just this wet noodle run in
his mouth and I'm like well this guy's no authoritarian figure he's got the same screen time as
lena oland and like it's both like you had four hours with each yes exactly you can't just have
some guy named david that likes to read about the fucking vampire so you need someone with some
connection to it someone that can have the mythos someone with an I don't know I mean somebody has
to want to kill these fuckers I'm sorry somebody has to want to kill him dress them like a cool
priest then you've got something maybe you got an eye patch like a priest that's like seen some shit
Exactly, like a vampire sucked his eyeball out.
Like Father Marin, dude, RIP Max von Seidow, by the way.
Oh, yes.
Rough week of the WHM offices.
Absolutely.
Had to watch Queen of the Dam now that happened.
Bad stuff.
Yeah, so he's all.
Hey, Andrew, don't you wish you a dead watching this movie?
I certainly do dead Max Von Zido.
Keep rolling.
He might give me a blow job.
Hey, about Sino, get sucking.
Nang, gung, gung.
demanding oral sex
from ghosts any ghosts at all
but so David tells
I'm sorry I'm sorry I am just imagining
the new conjuring movie
it's the two of them
investigating a new house
and then like fucking fat
Dan Akroyd bumps it get the hell out of here
this is my territory
yeah this house is covered see
get out get out now I can't tell where my
comes and the ectoplasm starts
She's mine.
Get your own damn lady.
Oh, that nun is hot stuff.
Don't burn colored paper or whatever you do to bring them out.
Looking to break your vows, sister?
What?
Nyang, gung, gung.
I'm going to fuck that doll, too.
I call her Anna.
Oh, man.
say you and me run away, Annabelle.
That's right. I'm traveling with a doll.
Kids meet your new mother, Annabel.
These kids are like
fucking 40 years old.
They're not coming over.
You know what, Dad, we were tenuous
and best at Christmas.
Now that you are living with a doll,
we're good.
So, he's like,
I'm poltergoyce my asshole.
But the thing is like he won't even
But you're right though
Like what do these people do
Did you sit around being like
Well last night
20 people were murdered by vampires
Do something
Put those numbers on the big board I guess
Get out there slaying some vamps
Dude you're just letting these people walk all over town
And we're still not sure
Like it's never
It's never clear if he's in at
Like they don't think he's an actual vampire right
No they definitely do
The press they all think he's
Oh no no no no no no
Not the society
so everybody's just like
I don't know maybe there's all these vampire
attacks happening probably not though
probably just Josh and
whatever oh that's 700
people died from neck bites
no well I we'll get to it
in a second but like the
aftermath of this concert
and there's no like well everybody
vampires are real there is a
couple of like quick things where like
a mega hoax question
mark like on the as a
headline the vampire attack
That was a hoax by the crooked Democrats.
Yeah, that's right.
There's Alex Jones reporting for InfoWars.
They're a crisis actors pretending to be vampires.
It's all of hoax, folks.
Makes me think about Halloween 2004.
One of my children, who I will never see again.
When is Dracula?
That brought up some fine memories of my child,
who I will repeat, never see again.
Let's call the 500,000 people that died that night what it was,
an impeachment hoax.
They're just trying with their vampire tactics to overturn a duly, a duly adjudicated election.
Oh, yeah, right.
Like he'd use a word like adjudicated.
Get the fuck out of it.
They're desecrating crosses.
Don't you see it?
I love the Lord Jesus.
My favorite book is the Bible.
They can get me with a first impeachment.
So now they're trying to suck my blood.
Now they're sending women who used to be statues after me.
Okay.
Some guy says he sucked the blood of a statue.
How do you do that, folks?
How do you do that?
I saw this statue, the so-called Queen of the Damned.
Okay?
She had blood coming out of her wherever.
All right.
No, I'm taking this very serious of this vampire outbreak.
I'm putting Mike Pence at the top of the whole thing.
he's a dude that would get tricked into being turned into a vampire absolutely they wouldn't
let him they'd be like no just get his head off allegedly fun jokes uh so this is all sad time
this dude david is like oh you heard word of merrius merius is the closest we've come to
the original vampire he's one of the vampire elders don't worry we're not going to explain any of that
here's 45 minutes of how he turned listata into a vampire and you know what the most
way to introduce a character is via
painting.
And now you're something you'll really
enjoy. It is
just a totally new segment in
the movie. And it's weird because
like with interview with the vampire, if I'm remembering
the structure of that movie correctly, every
now and again, we bump
back into Christian Slater doing the titular
interview with the vampire, right?
But then it cuts back
to the movie. Well, it's
also one POV, which is
all Louis, who's Brad Pitt.
And he just tells you the whole story.
Right.
And we're cutting back and forth.
This, it's like, now it's Marius' story.
Then it's fucking, you've got Jesse doing voiceover.
You've got a sot doing voiceover.
This, like, the voice over here is way too much.
And it feels almost like it was kind of like an afterthought.
Like they put everything together and it was like, oh, whoops, we got a real turn on our hands.
And my favorite thing is that the new, the focus on new metal makes so many scenes uproar.
There's this scene
where Jesse is getting up in the morning
making herself some tea
and just turns out some gentle static
X. It was one of those things
where it was that scene specifically.
Thank you for remembering that. That I was like
oh, this is the
whole soundtrack. In the world
of this movie, everybody listens
to this music. So what's the idea
like, okay, so an interview with a vampire
you had those, you go
back and see how Louis becomes a vampire
etc. They're like, well, on
And we do that with a Lestat.
Well, because this is two books.
One is Lestat, which I'm sure is that whole story of how Lestat became a vampire, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And then the actual Queen of the Dam, they just kind of jammed him together.
And the first book was Louis.
New vampire, right?
Here's a question just because you mentioned the books.
Has anyone here ever read any hand rice?
No.
When I was really young, I read interview with a vampire, but I don't remember it at all.
Yeah, grown adults out there, is that worth a damn checking out?
I do like vampires.
My wife read those. She liked them. I mean, she liked them then. I'm sure some of them hold up, some of them don't kind of thing.
I mean, she is like one of the more influential people in pop culture because all that buffy shit came from her.
Like a lot of that lore is the same. Your true blood, that's a total. I mean, it's a different book series, but it's also kind of a rip off to. You know what I mean?
Like, yeah. I just remember, I believe it was the real world New Orleans. They took a trip to her house.
Nice.
They worked at her surf shop
No, it's just
It should shock no one that it looked like
Anne Rice clearly lived in a haunted house
Yeah, of course.
It was fucking awesome.
I also always appreciated the jobs
that they had on the real world,
especially was it, I was always jealous of
Oh, was it a radio station?
Was it Seattle when that was the radio station?
Seattle or Boston.
I don't know why I can't watch those.
like the first 10 seasons
of real world anywhere
I would be doing that right now
is that a fact
if you looked like
that's not streaming anywhere
it's not streaming anywhere
but you would actually like
yeah let's check it out
I would revisit those old ones
I would just to check it out
just because I remember
90s and shit
yeah I mean
hey I love the 90s Eric
as you know
oh really
somebody called VH1
yeah
10 years ago
but then also
similarly
I just would watch those
marathons all the time
if you're a lonely
fat kid on a Saturday
Yeah, sure. I could see that.
Yeah.
I did that and road rules, man.
I never did the road rules.
I did a lot of road rules when it was just road rules before they started crossing the streams.
They got this thing called the challenge nowadays.
Yeah, that's something beyond me.
The world is moving too fast, my friends.
Well, the fact that the good thing about old real world is like a third of the cast was always ugly as sin.
And you need some ugly people in there to mix it up a little bit.
Ugly people don't exist anymore.
They don't.
It's been outlawed.
I don't know, man.
take a look down my street, you'll find them.
Yeah, but they're not on the RAL world.
Yeah, it's all like beautiful.
Everyone's a model of some kind.
Exactly.
I blame tech, dude.
Look at podcasting.
It's now just fucking models.
Yeah, that's not us.
Ever since we got in.
Yeah, dude, we really fucked up the curve on that.
Yeah, so her whole thing is she's really hell bent on like, you know, sussing out what's going on here.
But so we get this flashback.
Yes.
And it's, you know.
I guess he was just out
a night of partying with Marius
is the idea and then he wakes up
in a bed and like he's clearly been turned
he's like feeling his neck and whatnot
so then like I don't know
a good 20 minutes of this movie
is just like Marius giving him
like the vampire lessons he's like being taught
how to suck off sailors
well they're blood
they're in the neck
the best one is when he Marty McFly's the violin
on the beach
this is insane because like this
this woman is like on the beach at night playing violin very nicely and he walks up and he takes
a violin they have out starts playing the fiddle with that shit he's really going to channel this
and the whole thing your kids will love it guess you're just not ready for that yet
oh no i'm vanishing from the picture that the future is oh no i'm a vampire i don't go in the
picture that we're down in Louisiana down in new orleans way back up in new world
upon the evergreens, stood a long cabin made of earth in wood,
leave the country boy in name of Johnny Begood.
Vervealpah Mitzvah.
Never ever learned to read a ride so well,
but he could play guitar like he's ringing bell.
And you guys try to keep up.
That's a Dracula be good.
That's insane that you were able to remember all that.
It's only because I've seen back to the future a thousand times.
Yeah, the thing with the first.
fucking fiddler player fiddle player is great the thing that it's one of those things like you see
this time and time again in this movie missed opportunities to make things interesting because
Lestat's whole thing right here is he's like being told by Marius like hey man now that you're
a vampire uh you can't have any friends you can't have a social life and everything and
Lestat's like well why not like I I can't just socialize with people like that's a real bummer
so this is him being like see watch I can be social yeah and he fucking freaks out
on the violin and then like his eyes glow and the girl freaks out and start screaming and so
then they have to fucking just lay waste to this father and daughter and maryus is like i told you
look what happened i fucking told you look what happened was that god damn and now we have to
we have to build a funeral pyre jesus christ it's my whole night now let's start yeah they do
light these people up by the way he marius is like aggressively and annoyingly throwing shit like
gasoline or whatever, you know, oil.
Just what I wanted to do.
Do the Darth Vader to two paupers.
Let's think, I mean, again, I haven't read the books,
but like in this movie when like Lestad is trying to bed this lady
and bed that lady,
sure.
Watching interview with the vampire and the first 20 minutes of this movie,
he did not strike me as an old poon hound from way back.
You know what I mean?
It's just not, oh, that Lestad, dude.
Mothers lock up your daughters.
There's Lestat is in town.
You're saying they don't portray him like that in this movie?
No, they do.
Well,
because now he's flirting with Jesse.
He's trying to get her.
But they make a point very early and I'm telling you he can't get hard.
Yeah.
Because the two girls that he brings back stage are like touching all up on that.
And he's like,
no,
no,
that's a dude,
let's climb on the wall.
But that's,
he can't get an erection?
Yeah,
like he kind of like looks down and he's like,
I think he wants.
Oh, I totally miss that.
I think he needs more blood, right?
Because the erection is made from blood, right?
Oh, sure.
Possibly.
That's, right?
Because it's all about blood flowing into your penis.
And then it's like he needs to like suck some fresh blood so that could go right.
Like the floodgates to the penis.
That's the problem is that he sucks the blood and then he can't fuck corpses.
Because then he's, I mean.
But that's so dumb though because vampires are famous fuckers.
Yes.
I think he's fucking.
He fucks Alia.
He definitely fucks Alia.
So it must be the blood.
I, you know, my, I, I will quote Norm MacDonald by saying the only criticism of interview with the vampire is not gay enough.
Yeah, that movie should have got gay.
Absolutely.
Of course.
It's right there.
And this, that's, it's just, it's odd for this character now to have a girlfriend.
Yes.
Where's the come from?
Yeah, absolutely.
Now that he's the lead.
Are there any, like, there should be like gay vampire movies of some kinds.
There has to be.
I mean, I think that the Paul Morrissey, Andy Warhol's drag.
Is that count as a film?
Of course it does.
Yeah, when we were in Paris, we went to the Cinematheque and they had this awesome.
You saw an Andy Warhol film?
No, they weren't playing the movie, but they had a cool, because it was in October, they had a whole vampires in cinema and other pop culture exhibition that they were doing.
And they had a little thing about Andy Warhol's Dracula.
I mean, it's always the subtext of a lot of this stuff.
Yeah, it was mostly, though, Eric He'll have.
They don't go for the throat.
I googled, I'm sorry, I just Googled
gay vampire movie.
And your phone's got all sorts of cool results on it.
The list from Google,
number one is interview with a vampire.
Then it's something called vampire boys,
which looks like softcore pornography.
I mean, a lot of them probably are.
The hunger.
Could we stop this and watch?
The hunger is a gay.
Fright Night, I guess there might be something in there.
In fright night?
Dracula's daughter, vampire lovers,
the darkness.
Or kissing darkness, which looks like another...
You know, I was saying there's not enough of it.
Or like a big crossover, like, it's a...
Well, like, a big real movie that's a gay vampire movie.
Well, this is what I'm saying, though.
Like, because a couple of those titles you reeled off, I recognized.
Two women vampire movies are everywhere.
Of course.
You look at that fucking, what is his name?
Jess Franco.
Oh, yeah.
That's a whole library of that.
But I'm talking two dudes.
Yeah, go for it.
Yeah, exactly.
That's, yes, two dudes.
Listeners point us to the films.
Because that's a subtext here too.
Marius is like, you will now be my companion.
It's like, what?
You just want a buddy?
Like, no, Marius is looking to get something.
Go.
Marius has needs, man.
Marius is just like, so nothing?
Man.
So there's one day,
it's like the morning after the whole
beach bonfire that they had.
And he wakes up.
They should at least eat them, right?
Like just him to like chown down on a bone.
That's the things.
I don't know if like sometimes vampires eat,
eat flesh and sometimes they don't.
What? It's awake.
Who's he? What vampire's eating flesh?
In Dustal Dawn, they're like specifically like chowin on people.
Yeah, but they are bat people at the end of that movie.
It's not even vampires.
It depends on how far you get to the monstar end of things.
Like I could see Nasratu eating some flesh maybe.
But like the big thing.
Well, that's just the other do with being a vampire, man.
He's fucking in that count orlock castle.
There's nothing going on out there.
But the legend is they, they vomit if they eat anything.
Oh, really?
Yeah, yeah.
Why isn't that in this movie?
Why don't I see vomiting?
Because we're too busy talking about things like if you drink the last drop of blood out of a vampire, you die.
Or I guess anybody actually because he almost, his whole thing, Lestat's whole thing is he's training is training, Lord.
Well, no, you know, at the end of the movie, you're like, well, at least I saw those training scenes.
Well, yeah, because, you know, Marius is like, hey man, don't like finish this girl's entire blood system.
Yeah.
Because if you take the last drop, like you consume their esoterror.
and die. That's why I never
finish a whole person when I dream.
And you think that's going to come back. Again,
it doesn't really. It doesn't be in with
Alia. He does that. But nobody
dies from drinking. Lena
Olen dies. Well, she turns
into a statue. I didn't.
Did I see a cut version? No, you didn't.
You were just high. That's possible. I was
high too and just missed other parts. This movie
is terrible.
Not much happens. And it's
totally okay to miss large
swarths of it. You're saying this
because you fell asleep, didn't you?
I was watching it, and there was a moment or two
that I went to the other room and I was like,
man, it's fun.
Was there like a squirrel outside?
Oh, look at that squirrel.
This movie is painful to walk.
That dog has a puffy tail.
You're puff.
But yes, the next day,
Marius is painting on the beach.
And right at like dusk,
which is a real eerie thing,
you I realized.
And I think,
Lestat's practicing his fiddle and then a wall opens in
Maris's castle. He's playing pretty hardcore and he throws the bow
accidentally and it goes under a table and he goes to move it and he sees like a little
insignia tile like on the floor and like
somehow knows exactly how to operate this thing. Pulls the thing up, turns it puts
it back down. Secret passage opens. This is all his vampire memorabilia is
back here. Yeah, totally.
stuff he wanted to keep away from O.J.
And he
goes down on this passion's way
and it's getting more elaborate
and more elaborate. I'm like, Marius,
my God, the money. You know, O.J.
might have been a vampire.
Absolutely.
It would be really awesome if that dude
lives forever. I mean, if so, he left
a lot of blood there.
I guess he panicked.
Why don't they make another respectful
Nicole Brown Simpson movie where
maybe O.J. was a vampire.
Dude, wait. If I did it, I was a
Empire.
Chris Kevin,
did you watch that movie?
Why not?
I'm not going to watch that movie.
You watched that Pixar movie onward.
Uh-huh.
And your point?
You know what, Chris Kevin,
you watched that Pixar movie Onward.
Why didn't you watch the O.J. Simpson?
You know that?
I logged in the letter box.
I was like, what the fuck is this?
You've been waiting all day to talk to him about it.
Yeah, I'm like.
Here I am trying to watch this Sharon Tate
wasn't killed movie.
Oh, well, that whole thing is like, what if she was hearing ghost or something?
Yeah.
Bonkers that that dude found a niche, whatever.
Yeah, so going down this hallway and whatnot, what are you saying?
Who do you think he's going to do next?
That's a great question.
I mean, like, he got Sharon Tate.
He's got the OJ Simpson murder.
Yeah, what is so?
The Phil Hartman's story?
What if his wife didn't act alone?
Funny you didn't notice this.
He's doing a Pixar's new movie, Robert Blake Innocent.
Fun cartoon.
Lynn's like him
And he's just like a little purple creature
I would want I would go to that
Yeah I didn't shoot that Bonnie Blakely
Now let's ride on this rainbow or whatever the fuck
I ain't in jail call your house
I'm gonna pick up the phone
I'm calling Fun 1-1
It's all about me not hiring a hit man
Oh fuck
All right so he goes into this chamber
There's a couple of statues around
What is Aaliyah
one of which is Aaliyah
and he's like looking at this statue
and he's like hey statue
would you like to hear a tune
and he's like playing the violin
at this thing
and then he sees like the statue's
hand kind of moves
sort of like
presenting the wrist
sort of thing
it's like one of those street performers
that you're like
oh oh the living statue
I thought that was a statue
I'm spooked by those people
every time
and I just want to push him
in front of a bus
whoa one of them might be
the queen of the damned
oh my god you might be the Joker
oh shit
I might be, dude.
I don't know.
We'll see what happens.
I'd like to think I would be in a better movie.
You're twisted.
Yeah.
He bites the statue's wrist.
And then like the vampire alarm in Marius, it's like, oh, fuck.
And he kind of like runs into his house.
Someone's in my vampire cave, where I also keep my ancient pornography.
What is your fascination with my forbidden closet of mystery?
I'm going to bite the pretty one.
I'm just going to start biting a statue.
Yeah.
I mean, he does.
Brokels.
Oh, no.
My friends are broken.
Now I've got to go to the Dracula Dentist.
Oh, dude, Dracula Dentist.
That's a movie I'll watch.
Oh, gay Dracula Dentist.
Great movie.
Absolutely.
Marius.
Can you help me with this?
Do they grow back?
Do they come back?
No, I didn't go to your statue room.
What are you talking about?
I would never go in your stash room.
So as he does this, he starts seeing visions,
which are just another bad new metal video.
Sure.
But it's all like the exploits of the character, Akashas, who Aaliyah plays.
And you just kind of see like little snippets of her laughing and killing people.
You find out later that she is the first vampire.
So vampirism, much like rock and roll, started with black people.
Right.
People just robbed it and just pretended it.
Absolutely fucking Dracula swooped in.
And he was like, look at this, Chuck Berry.
He was like, you ain't nothing but the hog dog.
Guy going to die.
Rock and roll and vampirism.
a lot in common.
Absolutely.
So then, like, it's just a weird, like, Marius comes in and he's like, oh, Lusha.
I'm not mad.
I am disappointed.
And then that's kind of like the end of the flashback.
Yes, as far as I know.
She just wants, she, Jesse then goes, because it's Jesse's movies for some reason, goes to
to the vampire club to talk to Lestat, big mistake on Jesse's part here.
Jesse goes, it's called the Admiral's Arms, is the name of the club, and she's going, for some reason, dressed like it's Halloween, and she's going as Chun Lee from Street Fighter.
Oh, excuse me, that's sneaker-pimp hair.
Oh, that is what that's going on right, right, right, right, right.
You just reminded me of something, it's because you said sneaker pimps, and I know it's not really the same kind of music at all, but same enough era that it made me think of this.
yesterday walking home
dude sitting on the bench
just like on the street
and it's him
he's got a big shopping cart
and a little like kind of old looking chihuahua
like sitting on his leg
and from somewhere in the shopping cart
he's got a speaker of some kind
how bizarre starts playing
blaring the new radicals
and I was just
I was so babble
and this dog is just sitting there
listening to the new radicals
This guy, like, I don't even know if he knew what was going on, but this guy's just singing,
you get what you give dusting off, like, baby shit off cans to be collecting.
Yeah, come on out, Merlin, man.
You'll kick your asses.
And I'm looking around, and I wanted to be like, nobody else see this?
There were people sitting all around this, like, a series of benches, like, in the neighborhood.
No one seemed to care that this man was blaring the new radicals.
That is the best part of that song, Steve,
is when the lead singer threatens to fight,
not only Marilyn Manson, but Hanson and...
And Courtney Love.
Courtney Love.
Yeah.
Well, so in this movie, he would be like,
Courtney, love Lestat, and Hanson.
Come all out and kick your asses.
Lestat would be such a big deal.
Of course, yeah.
He's like...
Oh, Eminem would be rapping about Lestat, too.
Like, you ain't no vampire and so on and so forth, Eminem.
Hi, I'm the singer from the New Radicals.
We're here to open for you in Death Valley.
Go!
That is a distract.
I am feuding with M&M.
He made joke about me at MTV Movie Awards.
Necks sweaty.
Mom Spaghetti.
He keeps on talking about me abandoning my child I had with a woman that I am not married with.
It's kind of putting me out a little bit.
I'll be honest with you.
Speaking of being abandoned.
Christina Aguilera did not give head to me.
Nor Carson Daly
And we did not argue about it
Excuse me
Isn't that a line in a M&M song?
I don't know
Something who she gave head to first
Yes
I don't know
It might be there
It's in there
There's two Eminem songs that I've heard
Yeah
Come on where are you in the 90s
Listening to other stuff
My name is
That's the one
And then the one from 8 Mile
You haven't heard Stan?
What's that one?
The one with the Dino
interlude? You've
heard this. You've definitely heard this song.
Oh, Dido.
Yes, of course. For years, I thought
her name was Dildo. And it's
him as his best, his biggest
fan, writing him a fuck you
letter. And that's how the term
Stan came about in the area. Oh, my.
What's funny about that
term, it's like you waited 10 years
to make it? People
listen to everyone. Well, dude, it was a total underground
term. You know, you
just weren't cool enough.
I was saying, though, the thing about abandonment,
Lestat is chained down by Marius.
He's like, I can't trust you.
I can hear her blood in you as a line.
Like, okay, movie.
Look, mister, no Wi-Fi, no premium Snapchat.
No, uh, you're done, sir.
When he wakes up, the whole house is moved out.
Totally abandoned.
I want to know what fucking movie company,
moving company Marius was using.
My God, cleared out an entire castle in a night.
Here it is.
This is from Slim Shady, the Hi, My Name is song.
Yeah.
The lyric is shit.
Christina Aguilera, better switch with switch me chairs.
He can't even rap what he's reading it.
So I can sit next to Carson Daly and Fred Durst and hear him argue over who she gave head to first.
That is.
So in my joke, ladies gentlemen, our three of Steve's joke.
If you clearly go to slide six.
And here we see the joke.
has moved to the eastern front.
It's going to be a dark winter for this joke.
We're going to be like Vox and start putting out joke explainers.
Videos and quick episodes explaining whole-appographics.
I'm going to say, that's not a great lyric by Eminem.
No, no, it's not.
So he's saying that he was sitting in an auditorium
and he overheard the two of them talking about
who got sucked off by Christina Aguilera first?
Yes.
I see.
Is she a vampire?
She might be a vampire.
She does not appear to be aging, so it's entirely possible.
Yeah, anyway, so now that flashback is over with.
So she's at the bar.
She's at the bar.
These vampires immediately come up to her like, hey, we want to kill you.
And she's like, no, I'm with a vampire already.
And they're like, who is he?
You would know him.
He's from Canada.
She actually does kind of the wrong thing because she's like, oh, you may have heard of him.
Marius.
It's like, you may as well have said fucking Dracula.
What are you doing?
And they're just like, oh, Mary Euse, yeah, of course we know him.
He's dead.
All the ancient vampires are dead.
And she's like, no, they're not.
That's what you think.
But Lestat is there and they try and kill her outside and there's a bit of a vampire fight here.
Yeah, Lestat comes in and kind of kick some ass, which is like what I wanted this movie to be.
Sure.
But it doesn't do it enough.
And when it does it, it is kind of disinterested in doing it.
Yes.
It just seems like we're going through the motions.
It's very cut-happy.
Like, there's no, like, stream of action.
There's only one cool, I mean, not cool, but like bloody vampire fight,
and that's sort of the middle of the movie, the big concert battle.
But that's it.
Like, you know, I want to see some, like, real, like,
ripping heads off and doing stuff.
And, like, I mean, I feel like some of them,
their Twilight movies have, like, grit to them than this.
I actually think probably, yeah, they are better movies in this movie.
Yeah, no, I absolutely.
Even, like, the worst Twilight movies.
light movie is better than this. Absolutely. I'm not sure if we actually even see him
like drinking those two fan girls that come like he just lands on them and then they cut.
Yeah, they definitely do it. You don't want to show him being too unlikable, Chris. He's the
hero of the movie. Oh, I see. Interesting. I mean, right? Is that that's probably part of it. I guess that's
what they're going for? But what the fuck? Because like an interview with the vampire, he's the guy. He's a
fucking murderer. He's not the lead really, right? But he's like the fun dude on the side.
But here's the thing, though, when you say to somebody, like, oh, yeah, remember that movie interview with a vampire?
Right.
Tom Cruise is the first one you think about.
So, like, it's his movie.
Like, I know, like, Brad Pitt's characters narrating it.
And it's about, oh, how we came to meet the old crazy Lestat.
Brad Pitt's the straight man.
Yeah.
And everyone's like, whoa, when Lestat's not on the screen, everyone's asking where is Lestat?
Right, right.
And now you got Lestat.
And now we're asking where is anything else.
Well, because I got fucking Linnat instead, dude, this dude sucks.
Jesus. Yeah, I'm sorry.
What were you going to say, Kevin? You had some point.
No, fair enough. Do you want 20 minutes to explain that joke? I'll give it to you.
It's only fair if I took 20 minutes to explain my joke.
I think the fine folks at home got it just fine.
Check our feet tomorrow for La Nat explains.
The word not actually originates in Latin where the, I don't know.
There's a weird line here where she's like, yeah, I dare you to fucking suck my blood or whatever.
And he's like, your kind never.
satisfies my thirst. What are we referencing there exactly? Great question. Girls with
bad sneaker-pimp haircuts? The Pepsi Challenge is what we're referencing.
You're not a good vintage. You're not a good year. So he's like, I'll see you in Dead Valley
and he disappears. And then the next sort of movement is now we're in L.A. We're in L.A. And
at some point Marius comes to visit. Marius comes to visit while they're hanging around
some like L.A. house that they've rented. And Stuart Townsend's in there right.
specifically mentions the fact that it's three days
before the big concert and I was like
I'd love to be able to blow into a town three days
before we have to do a show and just chill
like they're just chilling in LA
for three days before they go down to Death Valley
when you turn into a vampire who leads
one of the greatest new metal bands to ever exist
maybe you'll get to go in
fair enough but also
when he says three days would come on three days
like I was really looking at my watch
I was like dude we got to get there quicker
The other thing, though, is like, you're totally right.
But why are they all living in this house like it's a clubhouse?
Yeah.
You know what I mean?
Like, can't they just have like a vampire hotel?
They all have their own chalets and whatnot?
The Hotel Transylvania, you mean?
Yes, absolutely.
I think it's because they're on the real world.
I think that's what I was thinking of the real world
when I was thinking about this clubhouse situation.
At least, we're all just like getting real.
Oh, no, you missed your shift at the skate shop.
Honestly, I let Jesse sleep in my bed once, and she gets very clinging afterwards.
I don't understand it.
I think in Boston they had like a more serious job.
Oh, blood bank?
Blood blank.
Weren't they working for some like social service thing or something?
That makes sense.
It would be funny if they were firefighters.
They were evicting people.
Well, I remember Genesis.
Uh-huh.
Yeah, she was there.
That's all I remember.
of that cast
Anywho
Yeah, so
Marius comes to this building
To see him
And it's like, oh Marius, you're alive
Well, that's interesting
You ditched me
200 years ago
One of the worst lines in this movie
Here it comes
Vampires don't settle scores
We harbor them
And I'm like, wait, what?
Oh, I thought you were gonna talk
about how he was like
Marius is sort of like
criticizing his band
Like Lestat's band or whatever
And he's like, oh, you missed a lot
huh or something?
He says to him
here's what it is
like oh how did you get
he's criticizing him
for still wearing
like olden times clothes
and he's like
how did you get through
the 50s wearing that
how the fuck do you know
you've been asleep for a hundred years
what do you know about the 50s
you look kind of like a pirate
there is one point
oh no
it's not in this movie
it's in one of the TNGs
we're about to talk about
on the March Nexus
where Picard is indeed
wearing a puffy shirt
yes that's what I'm
I'm thinking about it. Anywho.
But no, there's another line, though, where they're talking about, like, oh, you didn't miss much, blah, blah, blah.
And they're like, one of them says, like, Elvis?
Yeah, Elvis.
I don't know what Elvis is doing in this movie, like, in that, like, throwaway line.
It's one of those, like, everybody from the, you know, me, the 18-year-old kid in the audience seeing a movie with a lady friend, all the way up to your grandpa, who might go as the queen of the damned, we'll get this music reference.
Are they applying that Elvis was a vampire, though?
I don't think so, because he says, like...
He had a lot of blood at the end.
He goes, I need 12 virgins to go to sleep.
A couple of blood sandwiches.
Jesus, did I eat beats?
I sincerely hope I ate beef.
Ergo.
No, he says that you didn't miss much.
Oh, right.
And then he responds, Elvis.
Elvis.
Yeah.
Okay.
So Elvis was,
you were asleep
for a hundred years
and fucking Elvis
was the greatest thing
you missed.
Sure.
Okay.
I've also.
This new metal
vampires talk about Elvis.
That's fine.
I've also liked
that Tiny Tim.
I think he's a
beautiful musician.
When he talks about
going tip throwing
to the tulips.
One of these
fuckers in Lina Olin's
gang looks like
Tiny Tim a little bit later.
Yes.
Tall Tim.
Yep.
That dude definitely looks
like Tiny Tim.
they're like hanging out on one of his signs
and looking out of the canyon there
and it's like you've got to cancel the concert
and he's like never
and it's like okay
and it's I still don't understand
what the real motivation is for doing this
the lyrics the secrets he's letting out
are you pissed on my heart
and shit like it's Jonathan Davis lyrics
I don't
there's a lot of secrets in corn lyrics
but I mean these lyrics
that he's singing though to what Chris is saying
like don't exactly match up
to a bunch of vampires would be
pissed off about this information. I agree
with the vampires being pissed off. I think
Lestat's motivation is to get
the Queen of the Dam's attention
because he played the music before
He wants to be the King of the Dam.
Yeah. I mean that's... I think that that's kind of
what he's trying to do here. But then get that fucking fiddle
out. What are you doing with this new metal shit?
But that works even more. She gets super horny
for it because she goes to the club
at this point. Oh, right.
It's like her first big scene.
Right, right.
51 minutes in the movie, by the way.
Jesus Christ.
And they gave her maybe because she was supposed to be the Queen of the Damned.
The vampire teeth are way too big and she cannot talk in this movie.
It's a real.
I want to know what the stat is doing.
I read some.
Where is the stat?
Look, it's a Leo.
The one thing we don't want to highlight is her voice.
I read a lot of it was ADR.
Oh, right.
Her brother did after the fact.
And then they adjusted it to make it sound more.
feminine or something?
Yeah, I guess her brother
sort of sounded like her.
I don't really know.
It was to me.
Yeah, but either way, I mean,
if that is her,
you can't hear it.
And if it's not,
it's ridiculous that they did ADR
and I'm picturing this poor dude
grieving over his dead sister
wearing fucking vampire teeth
in the recording studio.
Like, come on.
She might as well had a silent role.
I mean, it's not like there's anything.
Yeah, yeah.
It would have been kind of cooler
if that was the case.
Yeah, because she does have great screen presence.
Also, how about she does a song instead of Jonathan Davis for the San Joachian?
No, no.
This scene is kind of awesome, though, because this dude rolls up to her, this other vampire, and he's like, oh, yeah, lady vampire.
And she fucking rips his heart out and just starts eating it in front of people.
Pretty badass.
And then she's just like waving her hands, and these people are catching on fire.
It's a new power for the queen of the dams.
It's a confusing scene, but it's the best one.
Yes.
Yeah, totally.
She just starts laying waste to all of these people in the admirals.
At first,
I was like, oh, is the guy's heart she ate, like the head vampire of all these guys?
And that's why they're going on fire?
No, it's just a hand.
The hand stuff means the fire.
He's the cocaine dealer vampire.
He's the head of the whole clan.
But the whole, any kind of momentum that this movie gains by having this awesome scene,
awesome scene where she's killing all these people
is instantly snuffed out by the
horrendous CGI shot
of her walking through the fire.
She sets the whole bar on fire
and then walks out the front door and it's just
like Aaliyah's video game character.
Don't undersell those imulations
either. Those fucking people going like
and it's just like okay this
section's on fire then this section's
on fire. Then this section's
on fire. I mean I think they wanted it because
Blade did that really well when whenever the
vampires would die in Blade they would like
burn up a little bit
so they're trying to get some
get in that blade
that was a big movie
it was a big because
I wish I was watching Blade
was Blade 2 the same year as this movie
possibly or was it the year before
what year is this?
This is 2002
maybe 2003
yeah that's
Blade 2 2003
I want to say
got to look it up
he'll get it
alright because I thought that first one was in the 90s
it was 99
99 okay
I don't know I mean
2002 you're right there
Oh, there I go.
Because I remembered it was in the theaters
when we were working at the multiplex.
You know what that movie has?
Wesley Snipes. He's wonderful to look at.
What month did Blade 2 come out in?
Because this movie came out in February.
I'm sure it's later in the year than night.
Sorry.
That's all right.
That's all right. Steve, we'll continue when you get it.
Let us know.
I will.
Also, there were people trying to kill vampires
that weren't vampires.
Or it was like half vampires.
March 31st.
You had two vampire movies back to back?
That's crazy.
This movie actually did pretty okay at the box office.
Yeah, it made a little bit of money.
Well, I feel like part of that is you had ghoulish curiosity of foot.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, and also they put...
Yeah, the ghosts given blow jobs in that movie?
Two tickets, please.
Oh, what happened to her?
Oh, my God.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Oh, I'm so...
Oh, Jesus.
I shouldn't have said anything.
I mean, I was looking forward to the blow job,
but I'm sorry
Mrs. Alia's family.
Oh, Dan Aykroyd just going to
Celebrity Funerals?
Yeah, I mean, I was here searching for
Ghost Blow Jobs, but I'm sorry to
hear about you.
Your mother, your father, both and, oh,
and your daughter. Oh, I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Yeah, it's part of my new A&E reality
show, Dan Aykroyd.
Ghost Flood Job Hunter?
Ghost Job Hunter.
There you go.
I just thought it was so funny.
I had to laugh before I said it like a total jerk.
But this is the romantic scene.
Dude, straight out of Superman 78.
It is.
It's the can you read my mind bit.
Which I think is the weakest part of that movie.
I don't care for that song.
But it's still pretty cool.
And the second it was happening, I was like,
I don't remember this at all.
I can't believe I didn't remember this fucking Superman knock on.
where Jesse shows up
pretending to be a groupie
Oh the poor other woman
By the way
And then she meets the manager
He's like
You smell like Jonathan Davis
Is Jonathan Davis here?
Oh I forgot of course
There he doesn't show his face
To the camera
Yeah
He like keeps his back to it
The whole but you can hear there
Hey
Hey
Mende
Mbley kind of
Oh you want a ticket
You're a ticket
You fucking 100%
See his face
Yeah
But isn't it only
from the side, like he, oh, for the first
like minute of him being on screen, his back
is due to the fucking camera. I mean, maybe you don't get
a full on, but you can, you can clearly
see that it's Jonathan Davis because she
walks past him, like,
into the club. He's like, hey, you need tickets
when I'm acting.
And then she's like, no, you're weird.
And she goes into the club, but the camera
stays outside. Oh, right. And he's
just like, hey, how many some tickets
are, I don't know, well, I'm in a movie.
And he, it's like an extra 25 seconds.
And I'm like, cut, cut,
please cut, cut, cut to the next thing.
Please follow the actual character of the film.
It's just him in a fucking track suit
trying to scalp ticket.
You know, I made the music for this movie.
No, no, you're not supposed to say that, John.
In character, a character, that's what you are.
Yeah, they're legally barring me from singing on the soundtrack.
John Nathan, listen to me.
You can't be yourself.
You see that to start Townsend guy?
He's going to sing my songs.
Jonathan.
So, yeah, he's like,
oh it's you you want to be vampire a and they like fly through the los angeles cities cave
dude and there's some horrid shit where he's like uh he's like oh yeah well this is probably
going to hurt you uh i'm no longer attached to my body and i was like but they're just flying
what yeah what are you talking about do they wind up at the griffith observatory they go they fly up to
the griffith observatory i was uh i was in the other
room at this point.
Me to sleep on your couch.
So she will she, this is where she's like, oh yeah, I can be a fucking bad girl.
I can be whatever you want me to be.
And she starts like cutting her tit.
Yeah.
And you're like, what?
Like she's like ripping her chest open with like a little pin.
Yeah.
And he's like not having it.
And he kind of like pushes her away.
And then he's like, you want to be vampire.
This is what vampire is.
And he, there's this other vampire in.
the area about to move in on this lady
and then Lestat
and the other guy runs away.
Oh, fuck.
It's like two cats going out of it
after a piece of fucking shrimp.
Do you think that that dude knew
that it was Lestat or he's like,
oh, oh, someone hissed at me,
better run.
I think either if he,
if it wasn't Lestat,
he would have tried to fight at least
for his meal.
So you're saying he like recognized him?
Yeah.
He's like the most famous guy in the world.
Oh, he hasn't come out at this point.
Yeah, you're right.
it is funny though
so you just know some from the music
yeah like so if you
Eric if you're at
you're at a convenience store
and there's one Diet Coke
left in the in the fridge
and you're about to grab it
and then Jonathan Davis is also
going for that Diet Coke
after you Jonathan Davis
I would hiss at Jonathan David
yeah exactly I think I could take him
I would hiss at him like an angry
horny cat and I would take that Diet Coke
that's my diet Coke that's my diet Coke
that's my diet Coke
that's that is a two titan fight is trump versus davis that's that is a
fucking legit monster movie why are we doing these godzillas and king Kong
i feel like the secret service would take davis out because that diet coke is keeping the
country running yes all of this is transpiring in the fucking alcove out of wendy's by
yes of course you're gonna have to take the zero loser take the L
so he fucking totally chomps down on this lady
kills you dead and he's like see are you cool
at that and I was like oh again
here's another cool idea like a vampire
hanging with a human
I kind of just want I guess
like the Jim Jarmishman
you just want only lovers left a lot
you know where it's like we're hanging out like let's see if we can
coexist like just listen to some cool records
let's get some walk around old guitars together
yeah walk around burned out Detroit like
fuck it you know i want that from because the movie keeps almost doing it like they almost just
like become buds and like hang out i'm like that's a cool turn for this but he's like see see what
we do and then that's it we go to the death valley concert right after and this we uh know it's i
don't know is is it here's my question because we go to the death valley concerts is death
valley we got a title card for no reason and and you're oh wow and yeah how long the sickness is
playing is disturbed opening for them or is that like AA music that's drowning pool isn't it no
no it's it's definitely a disturbed that's disturbed okay stee drowning pools let the bodies hit the
yes okay this is excellent that you're asking that question because i had the same exact question
and i think the answer is yes they are what they're opening they're opening for the vampire list
i think so yeah because when they're you're getting all these aerial shots of like this massive
congregation of people in the desert all these fucking skulls
Cumbags. You're on scumbag watch here with some of these folks anyway.
But you can see at one point, like they show the stage and there's people on there like playing.
It's a suit.
It's like a copter shot.
Right.
So you can't make out who's doing what.
Clearly the album version.
Yes.
You don't see Disturb.
You just hear the song.
The people on the stage could be just Renfield the roadie.
I'm saying it looked like they were like playing.
This is kind of like cinema's greatest mystery.
Is it like Art Disturb actually playing?
or is this just like the music that dirtbags listen to when they drive to the desert?
Like is it, yeah, that question, was there a ghost and three men and a baby?
Huge cinematic mystery.
Gave Dan Aykroy to blow, yeah.
I think there's a vampire DJ and this is between set music.
Oh, sure.
I will say this Death Valley, you're talking about some of the extra.
My favorite piece of trivia of this film was this movie was filmed in Australia because that's just where everything happens.
And they gathered 3,000 goths to be the extras for this movie.
They went to goth clubs and they went on the internet.
I am very excited that Australia could be 3,000 goth strong.
That's pretty surprising.
It's great.
Like legit goths, not just like weirdos dressed up like guys.
All right.
Hello, thank you.
Sorry to bother the pub.
Excuse me.
Are there any goths in the pub right now?
Are there any gotts at all?
Any gotts?
Anyone making a movie about vampires?
Finish the Saints?
Sushi ander.
Sushi ander.
All right.
Anyone who said Benchie, get the van.
All right.
Oh, there's an anime convention
and we're going to hit that up.
We'll find not many,
but we'll get at least like a handful of gotts
at the anime convention.
That's not a bat.
Now, that's a bat.
My Australian accent's awful.
All of ours are.
What?
is the deal with this Paul
Hogan movie coming out. Wait, what?
No, you don't know about this? I do know about this.
Mr. Dundee.
Is this like a documentary
because he's dead now?
No, he's still alive and he's in this
movie. And it's Crocodile Dun Dunns?
That's what I don't know. I think
it's playing Dun Duns himself.
Fucking one famous Australian died
in every time, Paul Hogan is dead.
Wait, who died?
Steve Irwin.
Oh, who cares?
I care.
Steve Irwin, are you a goth by any chains?
Is he a son a goth?
Now, but I once
Ristled a crocodile that was a gawk.
Yeah, you're not for us.
Thank you, Steve Irwin.
Danak, we're here to do a seance.
Steve Irwin, are you interested?
Okay.
I know, he's got my cock at a death roll.
Yang, yang, yang, yang.
Okay, then.
Bella Lagosi is what?
Bella Lagosi is what?
Dad.
Here it is.
So check this out.
It's called the very excellent Mr. Dundee.
Okay.
2020.
Synopsis.
Crackle original.
Cackerel Dundee is now a Chauncey Gardner-esque figure.
It says Paul Hogan is reluctantly thrust back into the spotlight
as he desperately attempts to restore his sullied reputation.
Hold on a second.
On the eve of being knighted.
Are you saying, wait, so this is about Paul.
Hogan, not the character
Crackadel Dundee. That's correct.
This is going to be
an abominational. I think it's
a thing where it's like, it comes on April
in Australia. I think it's a thing where it's like,
20 minutes long. It's a super
self-referential. Like,
I'm quote unquote, Paul
Hogan and I did Crocodile
Dundee in Los Angeles and it was an embarrass
man, whatever. This is a
bigger one. Get Helen Maren back as the
queen. Let's do it again. You got
Luke Hemsworth.
Oh, jeez.
He was eaten in the background, walking to his square.
Is this actually going to be that weird Australia commercial that fucking came up for the Super Bowl the other year?
Probably closing to JCVD a little bit.
I think it's more of that.
But, I mean, look at this, though.
I guarantee you it doesn't have the production that J.C.V.D.
Of course not, because you know what J.C.V.D. didn't have Chevy Chase?
Oh, no.
Wayne Knight?
No.
These people are all in, like, Skype or something.
Yeah.
Olivia Newton, John.
Okay.
John Cleese.
Oh, you can get him to do anything.
Here, this is the best one, and he made the poster,
and I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about it.
Reginald Vald Johnson.
Wow.
Playing Reggie.
Because I think he's in the first one, if I'm not mistaken.
Oh, is he in Crockettledon Day?
Maybe I made that up.
You know, I don't know.
Call me when Yahoo Sirius does something again.
Because that guy was the superior Australian, not even joking.
Young to Einstein.
Young Einstein is an underrated cult classic.
Okay, so you're going to have to leave you're a little too rockabilly, the haircut.
You've got the duck's ass going on.
No, no, no.
And I know we need 3,000 Goths.
We need Australian, not Australian.
Anyway, really long detour about that movie.
Sure.
I just saw something for it.
the other day and I was like what the fuck
I'd rather talk about literally
anything but
this is kind of sort of the best part so they're
yeah it's their rock concert they come
out where listen to Jonathan Davis is
awesome vocal so good flies
down he flies down the place
goes that how cool is that it's pretty cool dude
that's why they're going abet shit saw a guy fly
that's enough all the flying is the
greatest American hero like
that that that that that
You're totally right.
All right, Garth, when you see Stuart Townsend,
you're going to act like it's a ministry show.
Act like it's a ministry show.
Lose your minds.
He sings a whole song.
Oh, he sure does.
We're eating up the clock.
You've got to be kidding me.
You get a sizable portion of a second song.
Absolutely.
That's all the family.
at the concert that are there to assassinate him.
All right, no, no, let him finish.
He's got one song.
We'll give him one song.
Just one song.
All right, half of a second.
Okay, that one was pretty rocking.
Okay, so we're going to stick for a second one.
If this one rocks, we wait for the third one.
That would have been awesome, dude, if he fucking turned to their opinion on him with his awesome music.
I don't know.
We've got to let him go.
He's great.
Or he, like, goes under the stage and it escapes like the Blues Brothers.
He's being chased by a bunch of vampire cars.
It would be interesting.
Dude, that'd be awesome, dude.
Vampire pile up?
Yeah, totally.
Exactly.
And then, like, all the vampires are crawling out to suck up the blood of all the
pedestrians that got hit and whatever.
We're in a truck, and a vampire is biting my neck.
You know, I was going to kill him the last time, but that last song, Love Crud.
I mean, it was just, it was amazing.
Okay, we're going to wait till the encore, and then we're going to make our move.
He's got to come out for an encore.
Oh, my God.
He's doing all day.
I dream of sex.
Shit, all right, we'll get him in the parking lot, okay?
We will get him in the parking lot.
So these vampires started attacking them.
Yes, they're all dressed at the Grim Reaper for some reason.
They're there to reap some souls, dude.
Good head cut off like that, nice decapitation.
That was shabby.
Kind of the coolest part of the movie.
And the weird thing is like the crowd doesn't clear out.
They think it's part of the act.
Got it.
They're into it, dude.
They think it's all a big stage show
This is supposed to be an afflated devil
Yeah, it's just kind of like a big melee
Marius comes out
Now they're like the Bash Brothers back to back
And like fucking it fucking them all up
Kind of thing
And then fucking and fighting just like the old days
And then the Queen of the Dam shows up
And she like
She rises from the center of the stage
Like the fucking
penguin in Batman return.
I wasn't invited, so I
crash.
It'd be cool if she had like
dialogues. That would be awesome.
Or agency. She kind of like
explode, like the stage explodes
and she like flies out of it.
This all, like, and this whole thing
is happening on a large metal platform.
It's all very professional wrestling.
Yes, it is. Whenever the
fights had to get going before we even
got to the ring.
I was really thrilled when
Alia got off the turn style.
By God, Alia off the top turnbuckle.
Marius, it's Marius.
That's Marius' music, my God.
La Statt is dead.
I repeat, Lestat is dead.
That's Beethoven's symphony.
That's Marius's music.
Oh, he can't turn around, Lestat.
There's a cross behind you.
Turn around, Lestat.
You got, oh, he's not going to turn around.
My God, Foley just put a handful of garlic in Lestat's mouth.
Oh, his face is melting.
That just ain't right.
Oh, my God, the sound of a string being plucked.
That's Dracula's music.
That's Dracula's music.
Isn't it crazy how, like, Lestat's just trying to play this concert?
Yeah.
And all these vampires are making a concertated effort to take him there.
Oh, fuck, that sucks.
Do it again.
No, just go, go too.
Sucks blood.
That's how good it is.
It sucks blood.
the end of the sequence is she takes him in her arms
and they fly up into the sky.
Sure. And then this is what we get to the bathtub scene.
We get down to some fucking right here.
She's like, did you ever see American beauty?
Yeah.
Would you like to do that together?
Let's American beauty each other.
I am going to cry over my Nazi place.
Yeah, Stuart Townsend just takes out some memorabilia.
Kevin Spacey, he's one of ours.
Hello America, don't you wish I was a vampire
So you can still watch my movies
And so Jesse wakes up
And she's back in this creepy doll room
That we saw in one of her flashbacks
Which means she's back with Lena Olin
And Lena Olin just explains that like
At some point
She had a family and she was turned into a vampire
So she's made it her life's work
To oversee and protect the rest of her family tree
as the decades have gone by and whatnot,
which again is like kind of an interesting thing,
but it is too little too late for this movie.
I mean, start with that or something.
She should be like the main character.
Who needs this Jesse?
Or make, you know, that's,
Jesse's thing is like, oh, I'm this like outcast vampire or something
and I watch over my family.
Or like Alia plays two characters.
Like she's like a normal woman for most of it
and then is going to be taken over by the shock.
It's much more interesting.
Oh, that would be fucking cool, too.
So the last thing is like,
now we get the Deftone song,
La Statte drinks her blood,
becomes her sort of minion for a little while,
and she's like, pretty much.
You know why he did that, Steve?
Because he watched her change.
Oh, in you.
Into a crowd.
Oh, I thought you meant like in the boudoir.
No, it's a Deftone.
Oh, really? It's not a tone defts.
No, Jesus.
Dude, it keeps getting worse over there.
You are just going for it tonight.
I'm drowning tonight.
I don't know what to say.
Whatever.
So, like, the last bit of it is
they're all, all the good vampires
are in a fucking house together
and the bad vampires are going to get them, right?
Am I wrong?
No, that's pretty much, pretty much the thing.
So they show up,
and the good vampires are like,
all right, we're going to drain her blood.
That's going to kill her.
And the last one who does,
it's going to die.
And it sounds like a pack.
Yeah, they have a little bit of a vampire-killing tauntine.
And then Lestat comes out, it's going to be the king of the dam.
And he's wearing Janko jeans, it looks like, he's a very loose guys.
I guess they're supposed to be Egyptian-esque.
Yeah, it's a little like, he'd be like, I'm a little uncomfortable.
I understand we're in a relationship now.
I want to be there for you.
I'm a little uncomfortable in these pants walking around.
It seems like weird.
And the bangles on the arm.
Usual leather pants.
He's got some tight-ass leather pants
doing most of this movie.
He's wearing a shimmer shirt
that shows his nipples.
Oh, is that right?
I don't know if I should wear that
for one of our shows coming up.
Definitely should.
Yeah, when you got it flaunted.
Yeah, I think people want to see my nipples.
People should see the nipples.
I think Eric should be the leather pants
one though.
I'm already wearing them right now.
I've seen Steve's nipples.
Dude, they are pretty choice.
Both of them.
No, left one's not what it used to be.
So, you know,
we are on tour.
this June, so maybe for the meet and greed
in 2020. Shimmer shirt?
Should you free the nipple, dude? Okay.
All right, well, what should happen? Free the
shirt. Just a normal shirt, just cut out a circle
right with the nipple. Like little eyes.
It's a green lantern t-shirt with one nipple
exposed. And then the t-shirt
explains that your nipples are eyes.
Green lantern's light indeed.
You need exposed nipples to see.
If you can get the t-shirt where it could be
right where his ring is. Oh, that works.
Do you have a ring? No.
No, the green lantern has a ring.
On his nipple?
Yes.
It's got his tins.
I can make a nipple.
That was only the,
it was only the John Stewart.
Yeah, so definitely, dude.
Not the Daily Show.
There's a,
there's a green lantern
who went by John Stewart.
I'm shocked.
You knew that, my friend.
His nipples pierced, yeah.
You been hanging out with me
for long enough, I guess.
Some just got to rub off, man.
So they show up.
They're all sucking her dry.
Yeah, well, it's like, oh,
she goes,
Lestat, you must kill Jesse.
for some reason.
And he's like, okay.
Yeah.
And he almost does, but then he's like,
I'm going to, and it's like,
oh my God, let's that turn on Akasha.
Let's that turn on La Kasha.
Let's not hit Lakasha with a chair.
Oh my God, Akasha is down.
Yeah, they all start, like, sucking on her and everything.
And then, like, he's about to do it.
He's going to lay the death drop and take that last drop away.
And Lena Olin's like, uh-uh.
Like, for some reason, it's got to be me.
Sure, yeah, I'm a character.
Hey, everybody.
I'm a character.
You remember that?
Now I'm going to do it.
Well, she doesn't want to deprive the world of his music.
You know what I mean?
He's got millions of albums yet to drop.
Oh, my God.
Is that a 10th century harpsichord?
That's Lena Olin's music.
That's Lena Olen's music.
There is like, so the gang of people, and Akasha is like, you know,
killing them left or right.
There is like the hilarious, like, old hippie vampire guy.
That guy's like cooking up.
there's some
like South Asian woman
she fucking bites it instantly
the blonde guy's about to burn
but I guess she's like losing her power
and he doesn't and it's like
oh she's weakening kind of a thing
but I thought that was a thing where
like he was about to turn on them
because he doesn't he run at them
and Lestat
somebody like pushes that guy out of the way
yeah I was confused
I don't know I thought that guy was crooked
is badly directed I mean you guys were doing
all the wrestling stuff
those matches are more interesting than any
they're well choreographed at Lee
And there's much better blocking and wrestling matches.
So, yeah, Lina Olin does it or whatever.
And both her and Aaliyah turn into statues again.
Well, she turns into like a weird black like ash statue and then turns to dust.
Oh, Alia.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
And then Lina Olin's just stuck like as a statue.
And they're like, oh, she's sleeping, which is kind of like what you say when like you want to put like a kid's toy that you lost.
It's like, oh, it's sleeping.
Don't worry about it.
Yeah, totally.
No, you'll get it tomorrow.
It's asleep.
Now where the fuck did I?
Put that. Where the fuck did I put it?
It's sleeping over at Uncle Jim's house.
Exactly.
Or like you're my grandfather attending a Russian Orthodox funeral in where they have a chanting
part where it goes, you know, so-and-so has gone to sleeve.
Oh, yeah.
And they say it repeatedly.
And my Irish grandfather sitting in the audience leans over to my mother and loudly whispers,
and I don't think he's waking up.
Killer joke at this funeral, dude.
Yeah, totally.
Hey, honey, do you want a nip?
I think the thing was he never really knew the person
but was there because it was like someone else
that he was related to.
And he had a killer jokes he had to go for it.
He absolutely.
Well, he, you know, my grandfather, God bless him,
never mastered the stage whisper.
You're not going to get any head that way.
I'll tell you that much.
First of all, he was a lovely man
and I hope he's here today.
And if he wants to suck me off during this eulogy,
you might as well.
I'm right here.
Get going.
I didn't like him in the real world,
but maybe in the next world.
Yeah, so the Queen of the Damned has been vanquished.
Lena Olin's a statue and the day is saved.
Stuart Townsend turns Jesse into a vampire.
Of course.
To save her because she was just at the cusp of death.
Right.
Like Aaliyah tells him to like kill her to prove his loyalty right before he turns on her.
Yeah.
And he just like bites her chest.
Yeah.
He's like sucking on her breast for a little while.
Yeah.
That's like where he-
Sucking on her.
my titty's like you're wanting me calling me all the time.
Socking on my titties like you want to be calling me.
What else is in the teachers of beaches?
Ha, what?
Ha, what?
Does anybody out there remember that tune?
Holy shit.
We're bringing out all the greatest hits tonight.
Yeah, so.
And the end of the movie is like, let's go fucking, let's go rub it in Paul McCann's
face. I'm like, Paul McGinn was not
in this fucking movie, you guys. No, and
he should not get this like little bookend
here where they're like
Hey, Lestat's like, hey man, you enjoyed
reading my diary. Well, here it is, back
to you. And this dude's like hugging it.
Yeah. Like a weirdo. She
offers, Jesse offers to turn him
and he's like, no, I'm too old to live forever. She offers
him a threesome. That's what this is. It's exactly
absolutely. Absolutely. You want to
come back to the place and just kind of hang out.
If vampires offer a threesome, you take
it. Any time. Who cares about
your soul. Who cares about
if you're going to die or become a vampire?
You'll figure that out in the morning. It's probably the best sex
of your life for sure. Sexy vampire has to be.
But I'm not sure if the stock gave her all the powers.
I think of main powers that she now has
to have eyeliner and mascara on for the rest
of her life. Even when she's sleeping.
That's the thing is the movie very purposely
has this actor in no
makeup whatsoever. And then when she's a vampire,
it's like,
because they're so sexy naturally
right? Vampires. They just
She didn't have to put any of that on
No, it just naturally came out
It's auto-generated, yeah
She's like, why don't you come back to our place
We'll watch a movie
And he's like, no, I'm good, I'm good
She's like, why don't you come up for coffee?
He's like, no, coffee keeps me up.
Fuck, I couldn't have a vampire threesome
Who's drinking coffee at 10 o'clock at night?
Oh, but he's visited by, what's that other?
Mario is coming in for the fucking kill, dude.
Mario, Mario comes in.
My favorite line is going to plow town, for sure.
So I guess the idea is this David guy
is going to be turned after.
But what's, here's, all right, here's my question about this, because it's only one of two things in either weird choices for the movie.
But like, so Jesse and Lestat walk out of David's building and they're like, ha, ha, ha, we're vampires in love and kind of like walk off.
And like that walk off sucks, by the way, because it's like slow motion, everyone's going by fast.
It's awful.
Like a David Gray, like music video.
Yeah, like a bunch of people rushing by them.
But so they walk out and like they hang a right.
And then Marius, like, immediately walks, like, behind them up the stairs.
So it's like one of two things.
One, they walked out.
They did not notice this dude standing right there in the street, which is embarrassing.
You're a fucking vampire.
He doesn't have a cloaking device.
Like, what are you doing?
Or they're in on it.
And they're like, well, he didn't want in on that fucking vamp threeway.
So he's all yours, Maryuse, get in there.
I guess so because, like, in the middle of the movie,
meet each other and he's like, oh, Marius.
He's like, hello, David.
And it's like, all right.
That's my favorite lie.
When they're in the middle, it's in the middle of the concert.
And there's all these people, like fucking levels of people between them.
And he's like, Marius just looks at David.
He's like, yes, David, I must show you my new paintings.
Yeah.
Do you want to come up and watch a cool movie, David?
Watch a cool movie and drink some coffee.
I have a nice leather chair you could sit in.
And then, guaranteed, because this.
movie is terrible and I
I mean find a good
movie where this happened maybe they're out there
I don't know it seems to only happen
with bad movies like this
cut to in memory of Aaliyah
yeah I mean you have to she died
I know but has there ever been like a truly
excellent film that was dedicated to somebody
that's what they should have just said we're sorry
Alea that would communicate
everything right there
Rambo 3
the
get dedicated to the brave
Mujah Hadid Fighters
I will say there were two movies that
came out in the last few years that were good
movies dedicated to someone who didn't have anything
to really do with the movie though
because it's always somewhat affiliated with the movie
but both the film
the documentary Carmine Street
guitars and
PTA's
phantom thread
both dedicated to Jonathan Demi
but JD didn't have anything to do with those movies
wasn't the dark night have a Heath
Ledger thing at the end of my making that up
has a Heath Ledger, and then it also has a stunt man who died.
So, okay, I guess Dark Night is one.
Ghostbusters is dedicated to the woman that gave Dan Akron a blowjob?
Yes, okay, so that's two.
In memory of Olivia Johnson, 1934 to 1986.
Her name was Olivia and he put the Johnson in it.
Ray Stanz, we found out that ghost is 13.
you're going away for a long time.
She died of consumption in the 17th century.
And now she's consumpted something else.
What about you're talking about?
She's 200 years old.
He's the consent.
It was rigged.
It was rigged.
Dr. Raymond Stans.
Have a seat.
So is he going to human jail or ghost jail?
I'm a confused.
He's being put in the containment unit back in headquarters.
He's in heaven, right?
Or wait, he put that in there.
I think there's arbitration about where it goes.
No, he put them in there, dude.
It's like when a cop goes to prison.
Right, exactly.
So suddenly he's the one, okay, got it.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That is Queen of the Damned.
Would anybody recommend this movie?
No, just no.
It's almost a, if you have a fondness, I think, for New Metal,
if you grew up over that era,
it's kind of a seeing as believing
because some of these dulcet tones took me back to my youth.
Sure.
But it's just a piece of trash.
absolutely not and you know what a straight
list at the vampire get the fuck out of here
yeah I mean this might be one of the worst movies I saw for this
podcast I maybe that seems like an exaggeration
but I just couldn't stand a lick of this
and if you actually like new metal I would say
subscribe to our Patreon this September
where we're going to do a little new metal podcast on there
and don't watch this
don't ever go back to this and I hope
it is scrubbed from human existence
A race from existence.
It's got like no pulse to it.
Like it's just like vampires themselves, dude.
How about that?
And like if you want a new metal fix,
A, just listen to the Deftones
because they're good.
Shut up, everybody.
I wasn't saying shit.
Chris Cabin, people online are defending you
and your great music taste.
Deftones.
Slipknot.
Which other?
What's the third one you love?
Slipknot.
I don't know why I'm getting slathered with this brush.
The system of the down's okay.
System of the down's good.
Okay.
Not bad.
Which, uh, corn?
Corns?
I mean, I don't like them now, but there was a time in my life.
I was obsessed with them.
I've seen you in corn t-shirts.
Yeah, yeah.
No, oh, no, I don't, I don't, I don't read a corn t-shirt.
No, you did it?
I had a Deftone's t-shirt.
Who do we know how to follow the leader t-shirt?
Anyway, I would say skip it.
I mean, if you want a new metal movie, Dracula, again, Dracula 2000.
It's right there.
Crowd, uh, the second Crow movie has corn and deaf tones on the soundtrack, go right ahead.
The one with Jet Lee.
Yes.
It's kind of a fun movie.
The Romeo must die one?
episode and also
no no no it's called the one
oh the one yes you know with um no i thought he's
recommending vampire movies with new metal also in them
yeah oh specifically vampire movies well if you think about it
the one starring jet lee is kind of a vampire movie
because he has to consolidate
devouring souls and stuff sort of yeah he's eating souls
in that movie right thing hashtag big balls yes
uh i would not recommend this movie
I was pretty embarrassed by this fact
that I thought this movie
I didn't think it was a good movie
I thought it was better than it actually is
which is still embarrassing as far as I'm concerned
I feel like a total disgrace
this evening
having once considered this movie
maybe like a solid two and a half star film
definitely not way worse than that
yeah and as you know
the other thing is it's not like
there is a
shortage of vampire motion pictures
yeah that's a really good point
there's so much stuff out there
And so just randomly watch the fucking
Herzog Nosferratu. There you go. There's a great one.
Watch interview of the vampire. The movie rules.
Or sure, yeah. Go back to the source.
Watch Tom Cruise actually play Lestad.
Yeah. I might actually do that.
I've kind of been like circling the drain.
Like maybe going to rewatch that movie for the past few years.
Isn't it kind of long?
It is. It's probably too in change.
Yeah, a little bit of investment.
Yeah, like Lestat goes away and then Antonio Banderas moves in.
Yeah.
And it's like another movie for a while.
Not too bad.
No, not a bad.
then it's the only real evil left.
That is Queen of the Dam from 2002,
directed by Michael, what is it?
Rimer.
Rimer, fucking auto-correct.
Directed by Michael Rimer.

Nexus. Listener requested
Gleep Glossary. Yes, Nisa
the EWalk Princess.
That one gets quite dirty
and off the rails.
You got the gummy bears
on the animation damnation feed.
That was requested. And things that weren't
requested, we're doing anyway and fuck
you anyway,
is we are, we're releasing
a singable commentary,
the Justice League. Yep.
We just recorded that super fun. And we're
recapping the end of this
Picard show, the first season of Picard
weekly on making it so on the nexus.
That's right, gang, so patreon.com slash
we hate movies for all that exclusive content.
Now, Steve Sadek, I believe
we are still continuing with
Listen to Request Month the next week.
We're finishing it. The last one.
There's one stop left, you guys.
Because we are going to
watch The Commuter. Man,
I never thought I'd be rewatching this movie,
but here we are. There's one movie
left.
Yeah, please lower me to
fucking lava. I remember
I was drunk when I watched this movie
and I had a blast in the theater. I was like
howling. Nice.
Good for you. You deserve it. Thank you.
So until next week,
when we see what Steve's drunk ramblings
we're all about. I'm Andrew Jupin.
Steven Sadey. Eric Siska.
Chris Cabin. Take it easy.
That was a HeadGum podcast.
