this week on the program
put on your leather jacket and get your ear
pierced on the boardwalk because we're chatting about
the lost boys. I'm Andrew
Jupin. Steven Sadek.
Eric Siska. Greased saxophonist
Chris Cabin.
Oh, baby. Yeah. Fuck you. Play me a solo.
And we.
Hate movies.
Hello everyone. Welcome to We Hate Movies. Thank you for tuning in. As always, that's right. The summer blockbuster extravaganza ends. Is this the last week for this? This is it.
And, hence, and season 12 comes to a close.
Unreal.
Thou shalt fall.
Thou season shall fall.
Girl, little sister.
That song fucking rules.
Hell yeah.
I think this whole soundtrack is full of bangers, person.
See, I'm more of a I still believe type.
I just can't.
I take that over thou shab, little sister.
I don't know what it means.
to your brother.
I have no idea what any of it means,
but it sounds great.
It's totally meaningless.
But this is, we should say,
by the way, we're so excited to talk about it,
but we're talking about the Lost Boys
from 1987, directed by the great Joel
Schumacher. Got to get that out there.
Absolutely.
Steve's best movie going, Bud,
Joel Schumacher. He's really
nice to be at the movie theater when Spotlight
played instead of
the James Bond movie. So,
that happened.
Wow.
And he called me a perfect gentleman.
Wow.
See, look how nice directors used to be.
They're not like these Russo brothers going off on Twitter about how movie
theater shouldn't exist.
Dude, that guy.
What a fucking idiot.
Are you kidding me?
You know what Joe Russo?
I wouldn't have met Joel Schumacher if I just wanted.
He's not coming to my house, dude.
He's going to the fucking Regal 14.
And you didn't square, my friend.
Oh, man.
I'd be great of Joel Schumacher showed up to my house.
Oh, hell yeah.
dude oh hey steve i brought over batman forever you want to pop it in do a live commentary for you
live commentary track i never like i here's my my history with this guy uh also i don't know we'll go
around the horn i don't think this is an h for us it's kind of right in the middle like right
i feel like it's for me it's like pretty much an l yeah oh yeah pretty close to an l for me i i i
watched a little late in my teens and i was like ew cheesy 80s kind of wrote it off
Kind of then was like when I got into like more stuff like that.
I was like, oh, it's pretty cool, but it's still cheesy fun.
Yesterday I didn't expect to, I just had my notes and I watched it the afternoon.
I was like, let's just do a good solid sober watch.
I really had a fucking ball with it.
I really, the most I've ever liked it was yesterday.
Oh, interesting.
Why do you think that is?
I don't know.
I think I was just right.
You were sober?
Finally?
Sure.
The first time the clouds have dispersed in front of you.
I honestly think it was the fucking tone deafness and.
stiltedness of that Thor,
love and thunder is still sticking
with me. And this, oh, sure. My man,
my man, Joel is moving that
fucking camera in this movie. And, like,
all of that stuff really
hits. It's really fucking cool.
Super creative shots. I love people
being taken into the sky from the
point of view of the camera. Like, and
then also, like, showing the clouds
and some mist work in this movie.
Oh, a lot of it. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God.
It is, it's great. It's a vision, more of a vision
than any, you know, like you said, the Marvel movies,
they're kind of just stilted at this point, and
they're making everything look better.
Well, I mean, technically, I don't think you can argue with this.
Like, everything about the work of it, the look of it,
is kind of unimpeachable to me, at least.
The problem I have with it is that I don't really,
I think it's kind of a mess script-wise.
Like, halfway through it, I think it just falls apart a little bit.
They're just like, I don't know, we have to get them to kill these guys, right?
Like at some point these fucking things got to be killed, right?
So we just got to fucking move the dial till we get to that.
Here's my thought on that.
I think it's two movies and I like one and I hate the other.
I like sexy Jason Patrick vampire movie versus sexy Kiefer Sutherland
and we're all just sexy guys on the boardwalk being creepy.
All the kiddie shit you can keep.
You can just fucking keep it.
What the Frog Brothers?
Absolutely the Frog Brothers.
Fuck them.
Thank you.
Wow.
Look at these two guys.
Look at these two guys
hate and fun.
Oh, Joe Russo's on the podcast today.
Kevin Smith and Joe Russo.
That's right.
And we're doing spoilers
or whatever Kevin Smith says
because we're going to talk about the film.
I feel like I'm almost in the Andrew camp here.
I don't mind like the kiddie shit and stuff.
And honestly,
I always kind of feel like Corey Feldman
is a welcome addition to anything in the 80s.
See, that's interesting.
I despise Feldman.
And I think that's always been my problem
I was always more Feldman than Hame.
I can't really take
either of them. When it's
just them, like, if
it was just the Frog Brothers movie,
maybe I would like it
if I saw it in long form, but like
just smashed up against the fucking
rocks of a movie I actually am
enjoying and want to see. I'm just
like, stop it. I don't fucking give a shit
with you and your fucking comic books.
Wow. Holy
fucking shit. Well, you know,
it's it's compared this to something like the goonies this is definitely better in my opinion
well it would almost have to be if you're going to be but that movie's also trying to do a little
of the the dark energy to it but yes i i agree that the the jason patrick and and keith
sutherland and stuff obviously blows everything else out of the water but i don't mind having
you know the relationships with his family be part of it it works for me also because like it
they're like
using potty mouth and whatnot
like they're not
it's not like a
like monster squad
type thing
it's way more like
adult
and I don't know
I mean like
I was always
Feldman over Hame
also although I think
Corey Hame is good
in this movie
yes
I think he's really
sort of captivating
and really kind of
pulls it all together
I mean he sort of anchors
both of these
you know stories
that we're talking about here
he's like the middle
connector piece, I guess, you know?
He might be the main character. I don't know.
I mean, the thing, again, like, I think if I had seen it by itself, but the fact of the matter is,
there's supposed to be this big connection between Sutherland and Patrick at the end of this movie,
and I don't feel it because I've been given barely any scenes with them together.
Like, I really haven't.
Like, everybody act, like, they look at each other an awful lot.
I will say that.
There's a lot of, a lot of, like, spooky lookings, but they talk to each other maybe twice.
You got to understand that Keith or Sutherland's
David character is collecting
hunks. I see.
Hunk collector. I would have liked.
Hunk collector would have been a great movie.
He's a hunt collector.
There is no reason to turn Jason Patrick
into a vampire unless you are collecting hunks.
Wasn't Joel Schumacher a hunk collector?
He claimed to have like he had sex
with like 20,000 men or something?
Yeah, he's like the gay Will Chamberlain,
which is fantastic.
It's awesome.
It's a fantastic title to have.
I think the
I was reading up on this
apparently why Richard
the great great late
another late great
fucking losing everybody
in the last couple years
late great Dick Donner
is the producer of this
because it was supposed to be
a Gooniesesque movie
where all the vampires
are going to be younger
it was like everyone was going to be
like kind of haymage
and the frog brother was going to be
even younger than that
and like that was going to be the gag
and then he moved on
to do the lethal weapon
but still like the story
and Schumacher was like
man, I'm making a sex. We got to age these kids up. We got to get to fuck it. And I'm like,
you know what, Joel? You know what's up. Absolutely. Because I mean, imagine that guy. Just imagine
that little kid vampire movie. Like little fucking 14 year old vampires. Absolutely not. This would be
so fucking insufferable and like not cool at all. I mean, that's the other thing. Like for better
or worse, this is a cool movie. Thank you. Yes. These dudes are fucking cool. Like, Kiefer Sutherland is
fucking cool Alex Winter
fucking cool looking in this movie
like motorcycle gang
but they're vampires
abs of fucking lootly
and that's I think that's why it struck me
the other just yesterday
I was like yeah I'm watching a cool movie
and I feel like it's been a little while
since I've just like put on cool movie
cool movie
I like cool movies
did Donner do that
all kids Bugsy Malone movie
pardon me what the fuck are you talking
No, I'm sorry, that's Alan Parker.
There's like an all kid, like Jody Faw.
It's Bugsie Malone, but it's all kids.
Wait, what does that even mean?
What else would it mean, Eric?
So it's a gangster that's like five feet tall
and they're basing it on a historical gangster?
Yes. Scott Beow as a kid played Bugsie Malone.
Oh, ew.
For Alan Parker, Jody Foster is his girl.
That's really dumb.
Yeah. Interesting.
But like that's what I assume Donner must have been going for
is something where like Dracula
where like Renfield is seven years old
or something like that
like that's all I can conceive of when you say
something like that because that sounds like the worst movie
I've ever watched. I just pulled up the
Bugsie Malone 1976 and my God
you are correct. What a watch it this is. I mean
honestly we might want to investigate this. Jody
Foster Scott Bayo has children and do another
and they're dressed up in like little suits and got Tommy guns
and what the fuck. What the fuck?
But by the recently departed Alan Parker.
Yes, who is hit and miss, but I like plenty of his movies.
Yeah, good director.
God damn, that sounds stupid.
I got to tell you something.
This Kiefer Sutherland Mullet is an all-timer.
Oh, dude.
It's one of the best.
It is.
It's the rare, like, greasy mullet.
When you get a real, like, it's almost like moose mullet, actually, now that I'm thinking
about it, it's like the 80s, especially the moose.
the moose was all over the place
I mean this thing is dripping
wet this mullet
This is what everybody was trying to get to
With the fashion mullet I feel like
This was like the certain dirtiness of him
In general like all of that was trying to be fused
But everybody looked like James Franco's character
From Spring Breakers so it didn't really work
You have to look a little beat depleted
You have to look like Keeper Sutherland
For it to work I think
Yeah no you want to lean more Kiefer Sutherland
than SoundCloud rapper
Yes. Yeah. Good note.
Don't want to look like riffraff.
Yeah, you got a nice mullet by the sea is what you want.
Oh, man, the mullet by the sea.
That's a fucking like Larry the Cable guy romance story.
Or he's like bear or like his friend like burns his kids to death or whatever happens.
Hey, cool. My kids are cooking up.
Give me that gun. Give me that gun, cop. Give me that gun.
and all I did was go out
for some Jimmy Dean
sausages down at the convenience market
come back to houses
on file the kids dead
Oh no I'm sorry to your dad's in the freezer
like the chicken
but the chicken's pretty dang good
I don't know Michelle Williams
I just got no heart
My heart is gone
You don't understand
I got chicken in my heart now
and that's it
Oh he's definitely got chicken in his heart
dude
Uh one of the things
I think another thing
that really attracts me to this movie
and I was really feeling it
yesterday when I was watching it
because I did the whole closing the curtains
getting this thing as dark as possible
just the atmosphere in this movie
fucking rules and
Schumacher sets it from the start
with just the aerial
footage of this boardwalk man
it is just everything you want it to be
and it's a real shot
you know what you feel the boardwalk
like it's it is I mean it's a lame thing to say
but it is a character in the movie too
Like this town, this boardwalk, you feel all that shit, especially like when they come into town, you get to really see everybody to the, I think not great cover of people estranged by Echo and the Bodie Man, but yeah, you fucking, I mean, here's the thing. One, and I know this is a hot button thing for folks and fine, and I've said it before, the music of the doors is not a thing for my ears ever. It's never been. I fucking can't stand it. But my God, this piss water cover.
just to make a song even worse.
Well, you know, I can't, I can't let this podcast
constantly defend Blink 182
and then shit on Echo on the Bunny Men.
I mean, Echo and the Bunny Man is good.
Is this song for you, maybe not?
I actually think it's fine, personally.
I actually don't mind the doors either.
I just feel like they're innocuous.
I don't have really an opinion on them.
I think I kind of agree with you, Eric.
I like Echo and the Bunny Men quite a bit.
I don't like, and I like the doors,
and especially, but this is just a hard song to cover, I think.
Well, I mean, it's also.
stupid that the fucking echo and the buddy man
you have them do it and then at the end you're like
oh here's the actual version of it
yes in case you like because like that
actually makes the tour sound better because
echo environment versions are fucking
terrible and for the record
I don't have anything against Echo and the Bunnyman
I just think this is a bad cover it is a bad
of a song I also happen to
very much dislike but it's
not a good cover
uh yeah so we get
we see the boardwalk
uh we get this little
uh
fair so i mean here's the thing that you never you don't know a ton about this vampire gang how have they
been vampires for like a year 10 a hundred you don't really know that stuff i kind of like that
mystery me too when twilight spells it out it's like yeah and jasper tried to kill lincoln that one
yeah yep yep i my thing is though like would you how long would you be a boardwalk vampire
it's my question at least a century probably you do you do a hundred years on the boardwalk
What else am I going to fucking do?
I don't see Paris, you know, something like that.
I'll get there or maybe I already been there, you know.
It's true.
I mean, you know, if you're a fucking California vampire, dude,
it's probably a real pain in the ass to take a trip to Paris.
I'm just going to put that up there.
That's a good point.
What with the whole sun and whatnot?
Yeah, sure, sure.
Travel by dirt box or whatever.
Actually, that's a great point.
Like, I feel like I would actually leave California.
Maybe I'd be a New Jersey boardwalk vampire.
It's going to be
It's going to be expensive to
Then you could feed on Chris Christie
And fucking yum yum dude
See that's why I could live there for a century
With just that one big meal
Talk about chicken hearts
I'll be like a camel
With a big blood pump in my back
Yeah I don't know
I mean I would probably give the boardwalk
Let's say five summers
Okay
Five summers and then if I was going nuts
I'd move on
Yeah
Are you just walking to sunlight
Or are you just trying to find like
A very sealed coffin?
No, I'd hustle on down the coast
You know, see what else was going on
Just get away from the fried Oreo smell
You know, sure
Check out L.A. for a bit, you know.
Exactly. I mean, because like the other thing
that you have to imagine is
You know, anytime you spend any amount of time
At these boardwalks and whatever, like
The repetitive music around all these rides
Like, you'd go fucking batty.
And tell these, oh, hello.
Oh, yeah.
like that.
Tell these kids
about the Viper Room.
They'll be in L.A.
in fucking two seconds.
Two seconds.
Oh, Jesus.
Ah, God.
This blood tastes terrible.
What have they been doing?
Oh,
oh, the arm.
Oh, I see.
I understand.
Oh, shit, man.
This blood is making my mouth numb.
What the fuck?
What happened?
These people got
probable.
No.
Fun blood.
We could do.
Fun blood.
Can sell like.
you know, drug-laced blood.
Oh, no, now I'm talking
like Johnny Depp.
Oh, no.
Someone stopped me.
Oh, God.
I've fed on one of the Hollywood vampires
and now I can't resist the urge
to be a huge piece of shit.
Oh, right? He's that weird band, right?
Oh, right. I forgot.
Joe Perry.
That's sad.
But so these
these vampires are like
just like grab and
ladies on the boardwalk, which is, you know.
But no, it's, I would say they are not, they're pretty non-discriminatory.
Like, oh, yeah, sure.
I mean, they stop with, they start with Faddy Koppowitz, uh, who stops them on the
carousel while they're trying to get the lady.
Yes.
Like, first of all, but rather than finish that thought, they go after Faddy Koppowitz,
who it seems like a total normal character and just, yeah, but it's a good open.
because you get to watch him
walk out to the car
slowly. It is good, but he's not even
a cop, he's just a schlubby security
guard, okay. In a long
tradition of Joel Schumacher's
slubby security guards, Batman
forever. It's boiling
acid. My hearing
aid. I'm going
missing.
There is nothing
less dignified than running
and holding on your hat
to keep it on your head with this guy.
doing that's not a good way to go
and you know the unfortunate thing is like this
poor motherfucker he's just this rent a cop
guy right he's being chased
by the undead ladies
and gentlemen but he knows if he runs
too fast and loses that hat
it's coming out of his paycheck that's what's
so fucked up about this country you can't
even run from a vampire without being
worried about getting docked pay
for sure and Alex Winter and Kiefer
Sutherland all the guys must have
like four arms of steel because they pick
this guy right up
it's like a
superhuman strength dude
just a bottle of water
he might as well be
I do
I kind of
I like the feeding scene
the one feeding scene
you get
but I do
I do love this weird
swoop in thing
we do a couple times
it's a really cool effect
it's so awesome
it is that's a really good point
it's evil dead ask
like you just have that
that motion to it
and also like
it's a great
you know
just kind of like a trick
it's like a budgetary trick
you know
we can't show them flying
around constantly, which by the way
is totally fucking fine
you know. So like this like adds
to all of that scariness
like you know it's a movie of course about
vampires but it's scarier
that you don't see it.
Exactly. Even when they like show up
outside the house and other locations where it's
just missed and you just hear the motorcycles
and the lights instead of even
instead of seeing them pull up it's
it's great. Yeah. Yeah. I love
that these are like the the super
supernatural feel of these
vampires is
way amped up
versus like a twilight thing
where they're not
supernatural feeling really at all
because they're supposed to be like
peep you know whatever
they're glimmering or whatever the fuck
we're talking about
they're historical figures
excuse me
one of them tried to assassinate Lincoln or something
they've been here at the founding of the country
I mean
I mean the funny
to me the difference here is like
this movie does try to
like it's funny
like it wants to have funny moments
and like I don't know what's
funnier than watching this guy like hump
his car before he gets picked up
like they really are like
I made fun of the fatty coppitz
because they are really picked that he's
fat and like can't like open
the door and it's well it's
it's really like a
bummer for this guy
that the first time he ever
tried to open a car door was that night
yeah that's a problem
I went my whole life without opening a car door,
but now there's vampires after me,
and I have to do it real quick.
I've just been using it for the trunk.
Because the door is locked,
and he tries it like eight times,
and I'm like, hey, man, the key.
That's one of the things, like,
I don't want with these, like,
I mean, for a million reasons,
these Teslas or whatever,
without an actual door handle.
Like, no, I need a,
I need a purchase on that thing
if I'm being chased by a vampire.
I agree.
I'm not, I don't understand the idea of making things futuristic to a detriment.
It's like, give me a fucking handle.
Yes, the computer will turn off as soon as a vampire attack is noticed and you, you will be liable.
You understand, you'll be liable, you petapile!
Yeah, it automatically turns off because his vampiric pedophile father might be around.
Oh, yes, my cause are very, do very well.
vampire community because they are coffins.
All these vampires are sleeping in Teslers as they are coffins.
It's just so funny that he was calling people pedophiles while his father was
fucking his own children or whatever that was.
Oh, yeah.
That's cool.
I think they should all go to...
He pulled the Woody Allen.
Ooh, it's my stepjord.
He wants to go to fucking Mars to make, you know, like the Mars Texas,
Mars chainsaw massacre.
Yeah, you was always best with the future.
futuristic sledge.
Electric sledge?
Oh, hello. I am
Earl Musk. How are you doing? I am
petrifier.
Oh, my God.
Man, oh, man. I bet it runs in the family, too.
We'll see what happens with those 10 kids of his.
We'll hang up and listen. That's right.
That's right. So we have the family
moving to town here.
got Diane Weist
of course
as the mom here
what's her name
Nancy? Lucy there it is
yeah
Jason Patrick as Michael
and Corey Haim as
Sam
recently divorced because it's the
1980s and we're doing that
a lot in movies
yes speaking of Woody Allen
this is her first
Diane Weist's first role
after winning for her
bangor performance in Hannah and her sisters
She is good in that movie
She's great at that movie
I'm a Waste Stan
Like oh yeah
Oh yeah no she's great
She gets the hammer
She gets the hammer in this movie
And Diane Weist as as it should be
Totally totally deserving of it
So they are moving to Santa Carla California
Which Jason Patrick spies on the back of the town sign
Says the murder capital of the world
Not what you want to see when you're moving to town
Yeah see
I like that they still have a vibrant tourism scene, though.
It's interesting to me.
Well, yeah, that's what makes the final line so funny is what that cat was on.
I mean, it is amazing.
I would just love to see all the Fox News fucking like the summer of sin down in Santa Carla.
Well, what does the trivia say here?
This was based off of like Santa Cruz was called the murder capital of the world because
there was a 30 month stretch where they had like dozens and dozens of murders because
there were three serial killers in the town.
Jesus Christ, that is some bad luck, dude.
You think the kids are getting coffee together?
Back in the day, you could just serial kill.
You could kill and get away with it.
No problem until they made DNA a thing.
Hey, Jeff.
Yeah, remember when we got breakfast last week
and we decided I take the east side?
What the fuck was that shit in the playground last week, man?
What the fuck?
You said you were going to get the tip too,
but then you didn't.
I noticed you didn't even tip the guy.
So, yeah, I'm going to go into playground.
And how many times do I have to tell you, ears is my calling card?
Don't you take ears from your victim?
I take ears from my victims.
Mr. President, I can't tell you how excited I am.
We've invented DNA.
We finally did it in 1977.
No, that wasn't that.
No, but it wasn't invented.
It was always invented.
No, no, no.
It was a way to track us.
You understand?
They're putting Michael Trips in the blood and their
tracking us to call it DNA.
Sure.
But this is where the
Echo and the Bunnyman cover kicks in
and it's like a montage of the
weird town. And first, it's kind of great
how he slowly introduces
that there's something wrong here because it's just like
oh, sort of a bunch of weird
sort of outcasty looking people in the town
and the boardwalk and whatever and then, uh-oh, what's
this? Dozens of missing
person photos and posters
and shit. Oh, something's clearly wrong.
I love that there's the wall of
the missing in the town it's great
absolutely but it's I just love
this location photography
this the dude who did
this was I forget I had him
Michael Chapman
Michael Chapman yes
great great cinematographer but just like it's just
taking the time to just
look at the people around
the neighborhood and stuff like
you just we don't see a ton of that anymore
you know what I mean totally man what a great
cinematographer just pulled up his IMDB
taxi driver last waltz
Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
They're raging bull. Hardcore.
Yeah. These are...
Oh, shit. Incredible movies.
Eventually,
Um, Ghostbusters 2.
Kindergarten cop.
Doc Hollywood. But he did the do with a fugitive and that's fucking awesome.
Look, you got to have a good mixed career like that.
It's nice to have some highs and lows.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
I will say it's funny.
Kindergarten cop is oddly well shot.
Isn't it?
It's just sort of like, especially that first scene where it's like kind of just an
action movie like Arnold
bursting into that drug den or whatever
like the potty pooper. Yes. Yeah. It's a kind
of a cool. It's coolly shot.
Sorry folks. Yeah. And then it turns
it to get into the car. Yeah.
So here we meet my
favorite character, which is the guy
that I think it's
it's Haynes that asked him
you know, oh no, it must be Jason Patrick's like
hey man, you know any jobs around here?
Nothing legal.
Oh, dude. That's my guy. That's my guy
right there. I want to hear about these other
jobs you got, buddy.
What are these non-legal ones?
I mean, it's definitely slinging weed.
Maybe like stealing
hub caps from people coming to the boardwalk
or something. Come on, if you're Jason Patrick,
you've got to get some jobs here, man.
You sling some weed. You steal some
hub caps. Maybe you stick up
a few tourists. I mean, come on. You jerk
someone off under the boardwalk.
I think that's what was going on because he sees
this hug, like, hey man, is there work?
Nothing legal. So, uh, what do you come?
I can get you some work, though, if you want it.
Yeah, totally. Get you a job down at the pump house.
The legal workstation under the boardwalk.
Absolutely. I think what was I really? There's a deleted sequence where he actually gets a job as a garbage man.
Oh, really?
Yeah. And that's how when we see him a little later in the movie on the boardwalk, when he buys that leather jacket, that's how he affords it as he's been like working as a sanitation guy.
I do like the establishing shot of the leather jacket,
which I really, like, do I need to see this guy buy it?
Dude, the origin story of the jacket, man, absolutely.
There's a couple of sequels to this.
They shouldn't make Lost Boys, the story of the jacket.
And, you know, the funny thing about the sequel there,
the tribe, I think it's called.
I've never seen it, but there was like that.
And then there was like a comic that tied the two movies together.
but what it does
that I don't like is
it explains a lot of like
the vampire's origins or backstories
I love that we don't know anything about
Keeper Sutherland and these guys and
Max and everything
there was shit about like Max was
what the fuck what did I read
Max was the older brother of Dracula
or something like that
dude and like the second you bring fucking
Dracula into it man like just shut
that stuff down no I'm fine with
what Max hints at at
end is fine enough for me.
I get a general sense of what their relationship
is. That's totally fine.
All this backstory, it slows shit
down. There was supposed
to be like a shining ending
to this movie where like the other
the ending is the great
grandpa stinger.
What are you called? A zinger there at the end.
But they never shot it
but it was going to be the
remaining lost boys go back
to the base and like
lick their wounds kind of setting up a sequel.
and then you would zoom in on a mural that had Max
in like the old 1900s kind of a thing.
Oh, yeah, that's a show.
Something, something.
Who was supposed to have survived in that scenario then?
I never got a good count on the Lost Boys,
but they only kill like three or four.
So there's got to be some other dudes.
It seems like a lot of them.
I guess, yeah, maybe there's some dudes
like scouting down the beach
that we never see in the movie or something.
Yeah, they're going to score some fun blood for later.
We'll take care of the frog brothers.
You could score the fun blood.
Uh-oh, you took too much fun blood.
Shit, man.
I'm going to fly around.
Oh, fuck, I sucked on Keith Richards again.
Oh, dude, that's going to look out.
A lot of people have said that.
Dude, this house that they stay in is amazing.
It's an incredible house.
Oh, yeah.
And first of all, the elderly is not allowed to play dead.
That's a rule.
Sorry, folks.
Yeah, Grandpa here, played by Bernard Hughes, of course, from Tron and other things.
Yeah, you can't just be lying on the ground when your daughter and grandchildren are coming to live with you, dude.
It's pretty fucked up.
You can't tell me what to do?
I will do whatever I please.
It establishes that he's eccentric, I suppose.
Yeah, sure.
Yeah.
But it's just cruel.
Also, because, like, this woman's mother is dead.
Yes.
you know yeah yeah i will say i like uh we we said diane we is is divorced she doesn't talk
about it much but when she does talk about it it's really amazing like this kid went through
the divorce too supposedly like uh sam like he he's young enough he remembers all of it pretty
well i think and she's just like yeah i mean i didn't uh we got divorced because um i didn't like
the way you looked at me.
And like, Sam's very clearly like,
no, you screamed all the time at each other.
Yeah.
And like, I find it funny that they're just like,
whatever the divorce is, it's mostly a joke.
Yes.
It's also, it's mysterious, just like the vampire's in the show.
Sure, yeah.
Well, there's something, something about like, oh, you know,
your father, one of the reasons we got divorced,
it's just like, again, it is weird to joke about it with a kid like that,
which is like, one of the reasons we got,
got divorced was your father never believed in the closet monster it's like that's yep
I don't know what you're talking about mom was that it mom was that the thing that drove
that way I wouldn't have I wouldn't have brought up the closet monster I wouldn't have done that
it's my fucking ball but like one of the reasons I divorced your father was because he didn't
believe in the closet monster tells me she's never told him exactly why the
oh yeah definitely you know what I mean which is to say
Lisa the secretary
fucking swooped in or something
you know what I mean
Something's going on
Yeah it's just
It's such a weird line in the movie
It sticks out like a sore thumb
This grandfather though man
I love he's like
My fucking rotten family's coming to live with me
Guess what? Grandpa's shelf on the refrigerator
Off limits
He's got like the old bastard shelf
Or whatever it says old timer's shelf
Amazing
So I keep my root beer
And a very subtle
Quick reference that he is growing
and smoking his own weed.
Love that.
Yep. Absolutely.
Double stuffed Oreos for a
dessert every night. That's right.
My root beer and my double stuffed
Oreos. Stay the fuck away from them
Corey Ham. He's living the dream
honestly. Dude, totally.
Smoking weed, double stuffed orias
chugging root beer, taxidermy
hobby. Absolutely.
California coast and he's getting laid
still? Like, wow. Totally.
Fucking the widow Johnson or whatever
in it. Yeah. Putting his Johnson in Johnson.
but yeah they're settling in there's no tv no m tv either whoa
that's what that lines for guitar solos it's just no tv that means no m tv it's just it's i guess
it's of its time isn't it's very of its time well it's just a great line because it's like
of course that means no m tv what is it got to come in the newspaper but see as a kid that's
the only channel he would ever watch course so the tv's just the mtie
there's also this weird scene where when they're coming in right before they get to grandpa's house
where she's like giving Cory Hame food money to give to poor kids for food I'm like lady didn't
you just travel halfway across the fucking country to live at your grandfather's house yeah to like
you're just throwing your money on I mean like I guess it's a good thing and everything and
you're establishing she she cares but like I'm gonna find that out anyway she's Diane Weist
I care about her.
Didn't know we were doing a podcast
with Rush Limbaugh over here.
Yeah, totally.
Holy shit.
It's weird to me.
It just was like...
I see what Chris is saying
because they're in a predicament.
They don't have much money.
She's even looking for work
at the video store.
Oh, heaven forbid.
You might want to pocket that dollar
for your own kid at this point.
Yeah.
So I see what you're saying, Chris.
But I still think you are Rush Limbaugh.
I mean,
Giant We should be giving that money to her father.
Her father needs that money to pay
for the rent that she will be taking from him.
Everybody wants a handout, it seems.
Oh, Diane Weiss is just throwing her money around.
Everybody needs a handout.
She probably just gave that dollar to a vampire.
Yeah, that's a good point.
Honestly, it was very pretty that boy that she gave that money to.
He could be a vampire.
Diane Weiss bankrolling the lost boys.
That's right.
There's a caravan of vampires, ghouls, and gulls, and gullas.
Goblins coming up the coast.
And you better think about that on Election Day this November.
The caravan of goblins and vampires might get you.
Monsters are on the ballots, folks.
Monsters are on the ballot.
Let me remind you only one candidate, the Republican, has the magic sword required to send them back to their own dimension.
I mean, you've got your eldest son considering becoming a hand job specialist just to make all the work all it out.
And then you're just like, yeah, this, I mean, they're just like,
it looks like they have a place to sleep and everything.
I don't know.
It just struck me as strange.
That's fair.
There's a great grandpa line where, um, because Corey Haim is like,
hey, grandpa, is Santa Clara really, or Santa Clara really the murder capital of the world?
And this fucking dude without blinking just goes, oh, you know, if all the corpses buried here
stood up all at once, we'd have a population problem.
And you're just like, holy shit.
A lot of dead people.
But here we go.
Their first night out on the boardwalk,
get ready for it, man.
Fucking sexy saxophone guy.
Oh, I still believe.
Hell yeah.
This is most of my three star rating
is this whole sequence right here
is, I think this whole sequence
is like, it should have been,
if they didn't play this at Schumacher's grave
when he went down,
they should have.
They absolutely should have.
This should have been what his legacy is,
is the Jamie Gertz reveal
with greased saxophone man
I think it is Tom Capello
it is it is Tom Cabello
unbelievable
Timmy Capello
Timmy Capello yeah
oh man just fucking
well also like
he's an incredible insane
he looks like Sean Michaels
honestly does
he looks exactly like Sean Michaels
and he's doing it
and he's this is him singing
I mean obviously it's pre-recorded
but he's singing and then
to be able to have the wind capacity
I need to take a break sometimes
this guy's singing this song
and then go to the saxophone on the brakes.
Wow.
Wow.
It's so fucking cool.
It's so cool.
And there's fire going off.
Like, what a fucking show.
This is just a free boardwalk show.
Are you kidding me?
I live in the murder capital of the world if it meant I got entertainment like this.
And I'll tell you, if this is about me, it would be a really short movie because I,
in 1987 Jamie Gertz, holy shit.
Holy foe.
Woo, stop the presses.
But I would not be able to take my eyes off this gentleman.
I really would just like, is it enormous?
fucking weirdo with a fucking saxophone.
Like, she'd be making eyes at me.
I'm like, dude, do you see what's going on up there?
I'm staying for at least the second encore.
Exactly.
Like, I'd be looking back at her just to make sure she was still there,
giving her like the one minute, you know,
put the finger up like just a second and point back.
Like, I want him to finish this first.
It is amazing that we got around the same time.
We got the virgin version of this and that's Ken E.G.
And we were offered, we were offered Timmy here as the Chad.
And we picked the virgin.
Yeah, really good point.
If you're talking about circular breathing,
this man has it down way more than fucking Kenny G.
I mean, look at what he's doing on this stage, ladies and gentlemen.
And apparently-girating.
And he's,
look,
he had a real career.
He was Tina Turner's saxophonist.
He's doing saxophone and we don't need another hero.
Like,
this dude got around.
He was a real deal guy.
I mean,
he's still doing it.
There's apparently some Netflix episode of a documentary series that he's in that I might
check out after this.
Oh, my God.
Is he,
like, is he on cameo?
Oh, great.
The VHS trailer game's coming to an end.
Oh, fuck.
I want to say he might be actually.
No, I think, shit, is that right?
He's on it?
He's on it?
Yeah, I know it.
I knew it.
Dude, he's on it with saxophones and all these videos.
Oh, my Lord.
That's a good note.
I like that.
Let's just, let's keep that in mind, everybody.
But yes, so we spot.
Jamie Gertz here. She plays
the character of Star and we're
sort of making fuck eyes at this
concert which I don't know how they are because
of the performance that's happening but whatever
but we do get so Diane
Weist is kind of walking along here and
we see
the presumably maybe the wife or a relative
of we're told Vernon Beasley
the security guard who goes missing at the beginning of the movie
he's added to the wall of missing
oh Jesus
but so she
Diane Weist walks into
the video store
here and we are met with
the late great, the late great, Edward
Herman is Max, the video store owner
where he claims they have the best
selection of tapes in Santa Carla.
Unbelievable outfits on this guy.
It's awesome. It's
incredible. It's as if
Paula Poundstone had a husband
which she wouldn't. If she
did, it would be Edward Herman in
this movie only and they would live
a zebra house.
Like, that's how that works.
A house with zebra patterns all over it.
Exclusively chewing fruit striped gum.
Zebra print house, but also zebras in the front yard.
Yes, exactly.
Also, they also need that.
I mean, he's dressed like a cool guy in a John Hughes movie.
Yes.
Yeah.
It's awesome.
It's great.
I mean, I kind of think the John Hughes thing is on point, like, because John Hughes did kind
of look and had dressed like this.
And for the movie to be like, you know,
fuck it like blood suckers rather than like teen romance i kind of get it as a hit uh i mean i want
why did it was this like the the idea for spencers was to recreate this
yeah some shitty posters some tapes it's just like that's all it seems like is like the
first version of that but i would love to go to this place it looks amazing later on you see
his house his actual house when he takes diane we used to hope for a date and he's got some
weird neon ascending thing wall in his own home and I'm like dude you know this guy's at least a vampire
at least a vampire uh lucy yeah yeah i bought this off of peewee harmon uh he let me go for the bargain
honestly best case scenario this guy's a vampire exactly um meanwhile corey haem is going
down the boardwalk to uh go to a common book store that i would like to be buried in
honestly that's totally it seems like it's a pretty thorough and well-stocked comic bookstore very
interesting i was curious so you this is the top-of-the-line type of comic store here it's yeah it seems
wall-to-wall like really cool comics there seems to be a lot of old stuff that you could pick up
you know what i mean yeah there's people the the proprietors are sleeping which i like oh yeah
you know that in the back there's also like shitty VHS tapes that i'd like to take a perusal
of yeah oh yeah maybe some tv tapes too dude you get some TV tapes
a big time TV tape
this jacket
Hame is wearing though
it's an asshole's jacket
it is the jacket of an asshole
it's got like a lot of print on it or something
it's a it's a trench coat
situation
well he's from Phoenix
remember yeah so yeah we do understand that
that's why Feldman starts picking on him
immediately which you should
well I mean that's I have to ask Steve
did you start blushing when they started talking
about the comic books
I did but I was also super it's an annoying
kind of a sequence because he's like, you can't
have the Superman 99s
with the 300s because Lori Lamarice
wasn't introduced yet or whatever he says.
It's like, no, you wouldn't have the 99s
with the 300s because you would order
them numerically. You would
just have the 99s with the
100s and then followed by hopefully the
101 101 and then so
and so forth. Steve, then you wouldn't be able to
tell everybody that you know about Redwood tonight
which is now, no, no. Then you
would be able to now you got the cred.
Have you done this, Steve? Have you walked into a comic
book store and started critiquing the shelving.
No, if I could,
if I could avoid talking to those people as much as possible.
Yep, yeah.
If I ever go into a comic bookshop,
which these days I do, you know,
like Marvel Unlimited and Kindle stuff and DCU.
So it's a lot, I will say 100%
of my comic intake is digital now.
But when I would go into comic book shops,
it's a real, I treat it the same way
as if I was in one of those blue DVD shops
downtown looking for pornography.
Like, I'm tunnel vision.
I'm minding my own business.
I'm in and I'm out.
You know, put it in a fucking paper bag so nobody can see the selection.
Please don't talk to me.
Well, I just love the idea that he's like, oh, Batman for its scenes.
Very serious comic book.
You know, one of the first printed Batman's, yeah, that's a valuable comic book, you know.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, I'm just like, what the fuck?
What are you talking about?
So, 1944, of course, it's a serious comic book.
The Axis powers are still running around.
Are comic shops keeping like a stock of back single issues that far like that?
I mean, depending on the store, whatever they're into, whatever they're into, you will have that.
I mean, usually it's not.
I mean, and anything of that kind of value is usually kind of visible behind the shelf.
You're not secret sellers.
Having Mr. Mustard hands thumb through it.
One thing I don't agree with Corey Haim here.
man is he keeps repeatedly saying
that he doesn't like horror comics and I'm like
no horror comics are fucking awesome come on
you baby grow up dude well yeah
apparently he's a real scared he can't
oh well he's gonna do some
growing up over the next few days in this movie
but it's funny you know the frog brothers
introducing him to horror comics saying
you have to read this vampire comic it's like
a guide to living in this town
yeah totally like you better
this is a survival guide or whatever
really trying to like lay it on
like hey kid he should
probably get into the know of what's going on in Santa
Carla. Which is going to get fucking murdered.
Everywhere, every once
a while, Stanley Summers here and he's been
doing these, this series for us.
Vampires everywhere. Destroy all vampires.
Vampire vacation.
I like that. Yeah.
But so we see
sort of around here, like, because
why Corey Haim goes into the comic bookshop
in the first place is because
Jason Patrick, you know, is
pulling older brother mode here like hey go do your own thing i'm chasing some tail here but
unfortunately for michael jamy geritz gets on the back of kefer sutherland's motorcycle yeah
and they fucking pull right out of dodge looking staring daggers into the new guy all i could say
is case closed for me uh you have a good night sir exactly i didn't like you know he's you know
keither sutherland tells him like oh like the the cliff bluffs at the edge of town or whatever
he's like, you know, I'm not going to beat you.
You don't have to beat me, Michael.
You just have to keep up.
Yep.
Oh, totally.
Keith are,
Kiefer Sutherland rules in this movie, man.
I like the,
even though they're adversarial a little bit,
that that genteel relationship they have is interesting.
I know they,
you don't get much connection beyond that,
but I still found it interesting.
It's your classic vampire flirt fight.
Yeah, yeah.
It's like, like, you know,
let's all go together.
It's like, what's going to happen?
I've always found Kiefer Sullen
very magnetic. I think
that's probably a lot of why
24 got as popular as it did.
Absolutely. Of him. His voice alone
is incredible. Fantastic. It's just
like he did just the right different
things than his father to make him
his own little kind of stardom.
Absolutely. So something like this where I'm just like
yeah, immediately I'm like, that's fine.
Yeah, J.B. Gertz, I will see you never.
Absolutely.
Him with this mullet and the gang
behind him. It's like, yep, you have a great
night, sirs. You got a beautiful girlfriend there.
You're real lucky man there, sir
Is that Alex Winter you're hanging out with?
Boy, he seems like a nice guy.
Yeah, I mean, that's definitely what I would do as well.
I'm not racing to the bluffs, but they are sexy.
So I can see the temptation here.
Sure.
You do think it's like our worst case scenario,
I get turned into a vampire.
Best case scenario, or gee, oh, me, yeah, you know, hey,
fuck it.
New town, new Michael.
Michael's finding himself
I just bought this new leather jacket now
you know new Michael yeah
totally dude saved up all my pennies
fucking hauling trash or whatever
the movie watched us
watch him buy a leather jacket
so there you go
the ride out to the bluff
is awesome because they are like
riding you know they take the
the motorcycles down onto the beach
and they're riding on the beach or whatever
it's this whole sequence is so awesomely lit
and just watching these dudes ride the
bikes, like fucking awesome
practical stuff here. What a shock. It looks
great. And the whole, like, the
lighthouse and this
missed level of cloud coverage
they have, and you can't tell that the cliff is there,
it's a thrilling little sequence.
And, you know, it's also, like,
incredibly economical, too, because
you would have to get, like, five stuntmen
to do, like, really cool motorcycle stuff.
It's like, no, we'll go into a warehouse. We'll light it
like a fucking EC comic and
have a lot of fun with it. And it, it
actually works better. You know what I mean?
Yeah, totally.
So, yeah, Patrick almost spills out on this cliff.
Piss gets pissed off here.
I love, he goes for Kiefer Sutherland,
and the rest of the lost voice kind of get at him.
And he's like, no, just you, just you, man.
Just you.
Fucking great.
Nice try, though.
I mean, he asks, like, that, in a perfect world, yes, just you.
No, what is the gang situation?
They're going to beat the ever-living shit out of you.
Oh, guys, oh, oh, we were going to all kick him in the stomach at the same time,
but he said, just you and pointed to David.
so back off lost boys back off he said just you to david you know what speaking to jason
i was curious because uh if jacky gleason had seen this movie he did not he died the month
before because jason patrick is jacky cleason's grandson oh really what yes he everybody is
somebody folks every single person is related to someone else in the illuminati well jason
patrick's father is the actor from the exorcist who oh right uh father
what the dude who
fucking throws himself out the window at the end.
Father Carus?
Is that Father Carus? Yeah.
Yes.
I believe that's correct.
I'm looking at Jason Miller.
Exorcist. Yeah. Yep.
Yep. Yeah. Which is I'm pulling up the IMDB.
Yeah. Wow. Yeah. I cannot believe that he is
Jackie Gleeson's grandson.
It's really something.
But that's not through Jason Miller then. That must be the mother.
Possibly?
Let's go back to the IBM.
Is Jason Miller the son of Jack?
Jackie Gleason.
That can't be true.
Possibly.
Jason Miller is his father.
Okay.
Linda Miller's father is Jackie Gleason.
So it is on the mother's side.
Yes.
I see.
She had a career too.
That was pretty major.
Not major, major.
Like she was in law and some law and order and 17 again.
So that's something.
Hey.
Those are big things.
It's not nothing.
Yeah, no, totally.
So before, I forget if this is right after the bluff scene or...
Oh, never mind. She played female janitor in 17 again.
Just honorary.
She's nothing. That's okay. That's nice. That's good to know.
Finally, the Kiefer Sutherland's crew hunts down the couple that they were trying to get to at the carousel before Faddy Koppowitz got it.
but the thing that really is just unsettling about this is the guy in question with the girl
with the lady has really bad Ted Cruz face oh is that right it's really gnarly if you get a
if you get a real look at it the red light helps you a lot and like of course they're you
know they're focusing on the woman more at the camera in general but once you get a look at
this guy. The nose, the
beady eyes, the squinched
up, I
will never know joy
face. It's just, it's just all
there, man. Usually, that's
the face of the killer, not the
amazing. It's really, well, it helps you, because you're supposed to a little
bit, you have to be a little bit on Keeper Selle
inside. Oh, for sure. Yeah. To like him a little bit.
Well, this is probably one of the best
car abduction sequences of this
camera crane swooping down.
Big time. And they rip the roof
off too. It's really fucking awesome. Yeah. He, so I think the
connection is this guy, because there's a
little bit of a disturbance in Max's video store
with this guy originally. So there's this other gang, there's the
lost boys, and then there's like the surf Nazi guys.
Which is, I would like more established both
sides of that, because they look just like this regular
motley crew of dudes like, lean into the surf or lean into
the Nazi. Right, exactly. Yeah, they basically
like they have shaved heads and hang out by the beach
so this movie calls them surf Nazis
but there's some sort of dust up there
so this guy I think is one of the dudes
from that gang and it's fucking
hilarious because like he's trying to make out with his
lady friend and she's reading the comic
like get the fuck off me man I'm trying
to read comics it's so hilarious but yeah
the rip ripping the top off the car
he gets pulled out first
and they go and it's a great like you think
she's going to be saved because he was being
the dick at the comic shop
no no she goes up too
But again, and this is lit very much like an old, you know what I mean?
Like it looks like Easy Comics cover, like the way her hair is blowing.
And Schumacher is an old comics guy, so he knows what's what.
It's very, yeah, all that stuff is dripping throughout this movie.
Because that kind of same, one of you guys mentioned the red lighting, and that's the same thing that they used to great effect in the creep show movie.
Yeah.
Where it's like when a terrifying thing happens, all of a sudden there's this incredibly artificial red light like out of nowhere, you know.
signifying like
uh-oh fear, danger, whatever
but it's it's that
it's so artificial, so
comicky and I love
that Schumacher fucking puts it in this world
too. For sure.
So yeah, I do that happens before this like
there's two
this two motorcycle sequences
we're talking about the big one where
he falls off and he's like, just you man, just you
and it's like no man, it's all cool
welcome to our cool hideout
like our enormous Jim Morrison poster
like not really
No, that's why I was like, was he a vampire?
Did a Van Helsing stab him in a bathtub in Paris?
Well, what I think is interesting about it is Morrison, you know, like the other folk in that 27 club, right?
Like he is sort of, you know, forever enshrined as a young man.
So it is that nice connection to these guys.
And I like that we're doing that shit more.
than, I mean, what the
original script had,
which was way more of a literal
one-to-one Peter Pan
to this movie, where they were all
like sharing, you know, Michael
John Wendy, all that shit.
You know, it was like such a direct thing.
David was named Peter.
Like, don't do that. Instead,
like, just leave that the title of the movie and then do
something like this where it's like another
permanently young, you know,
pop culture face. It's a layer
as opposed to a reference. You know what I mean?
which is much better.
It's like, oh, it's under there.
It's like, oh, it's pretty cool.
But like, as opposed to being like,
he's Peter, she's Wendy,
you know, like that's...
Yeah, like, even the dog,
like, Corey Haim has a dog
in this movie named Nanook,
you know, and it's like,
that's close enough to Nana,
the dog from Peter Pan, et cetera.
Interesting.
No, Michael.
No, Michael.
Actually, we're not trying to be vampires.
We're not vampires at all.
We just really like Jim Morrison.
Our plan is to curse on television one day.
That's essentially what we want.
want to do. We're not really thinking about much else.
Noble pursuit, honestly. I like
that. This is some interesting stuff
about this mansion thing. It was like
in 1906, the big one hit the
fault line near San Francisco and to crack
this place in half and it's
been there. And now it's ours. I think he
says, now it's ours. And I'm like, when did
they get there? I like that it's a mystery.
Like, were they there
when they went after the big one?
Like, yeah, where are they
staying at the hotel when it sank into
the ground?
But it is
I love the set design
of this hideout. It's fucking rules.
It's very Ninja Turtles
2y a little bit
like a subterranean
like cool one like
And it's like
Michael,
Michael, this is the big rat that trained us
I wish, man.
I guess you could get like a Nospheratu guy
with a back problem to be your splinter.
Absolutely.
Michael, you must bring a Zah.
awesome and radical Michael
radical Michael
yeah thank God we're on the West Coast
since they wouldn't put you know
the sauce would be so tame
they would never put garlic or anything in there
that's true oh yeah I mean
they make fucking pizza with guacamole
as the sauce at that point
that's what that's what you'd have to give up
if you left the beautiful east
you'd just be eating guacamole pizza
or whatever they got out there
they do say I have to be trivia
if it's to be believed which I think it is
the word Michael is uttered
118 times in this movie
and that sounds about right
I really I believe it
if I was on fucking
fan duel and the number was
118 I'd be like over
it's got to be over 118
it's all got to be the scene
with the maggots right
because he's it's like he
he starts and ends
every sentence with Michael
he's like Michael take this rice
Michael and eat the rice Michael
Michael do you like the rice Michael
Michael because Michael
that doesn't look like rice to me Michael
that looks like maggots Michael
Michael's an interesting character
I like the idea you become a vampire
you don't want to be a vampire
do you think there's the name is any significance
was that like a powerful angel
or some shit Archangel Michael yeah
he was the fighter of a think he beat
the devil's ass a couple times so I guess
maybe that's part of what we're doing yeah possibly
but you know that's a stretch
it's a strong name it's but it is
I mean, it is.
And it's like, I do like this, the maggot scene, which is, and I need to remind myself
because I really did like that Thor movie, what we do at the shadows,
one of the best comedies ever made.
And that scene that they parody this in is so fucking funny.
Oh, man, I got to go back because I don't remember it.
But I love that we're just hucking containers of Chinese food at each other.
And it seems like so fucking dangerous.
Do you like your bisceti?
It's verb.
it is very.
Sorry, I had to do it.
No, I love
because the funny thing is when they get to the hideout,
David says to Marco,
who's Alex Winter's character,
he's like, Marco, go find us some food.
And I want, like, whatever the little scene is
of Alex Winter, like, robbing some Chinese delivery guy.
Because he comes back with this huge tray
with all these containers and they're throwing him around.
And I do like, Kiefer Sutherland's line,
because, like, Jason Patrick doesn't want to eat the rice, you know?
And he's like, come on, Michael.
It's just rice, Michael.
How could a billion Chinese people be wrong?
That's true because they're not.
Rice is wonderful.
Rice is wonderful.
They should have also grabbed the delivery guy for dessert.
Oh, yeah.
Well, the appetizer is some sort of a joint, which is laced with God knows what.
You're going to take a joint from this dude?
I don't think so.
Oh, you know what?
It's laced with fucking ashes of that security guard.
They burn the rest of his body.
Dude, a little mustache hair in there.
That fat old schlubby security guard
always said in his will
when I die, roll my ashes up
and smoke me, man.
I don't know.
I'm around all these pretty boys
and I got Jamie Gertz around me
and they say smoke this shit.
I might just smoke this shit
if I'm just 18 years old.
Yeah, I'm probably smart.
I'm going to fall to peer pressure
and become a vampire.
Oh, I'm going to smoke two of them, dude.
I'll become a vampire and I would hold
on to that for dear life. I would never try to find a cure. Oh yeah. I'm getting
bossed around by Alex Winters. Never mind. Keep for Sutherland isn't even looking at me. It's all
about the lesser guys need somebody to bully too. That's a great point. Yeah, I'm just going to be
low on the totem pole, you know, people will want to stake the other guys and then I'll walk out
the back. Every once in a while, they'll toss me a kid from Minnesota to drink. Oh,
yeah. And that's fine. That's just fine. That's a fine life.
the weird
baggots thing, I guess
we're playing with the
vampires have some telekinetic
powers situation.
Some hypnotism, yeah.
Their allusions, Michael.
Michael. Michael. Michael. Michael.
Michael. Michael.
Michael. The bathroom is around the corner,
Michael. And then you take a left, Michael.
And then you take a ride to Michael. And then you
piss in the hole, Michael.
Uh-oh, Michael. It's me. Kit your car.
Uh-oh, Michael, I shouldn't be driving on the sand like this.
That vampires, Michael.
We could go to an actual resort, Michael.
Dude, what would the crossover be
where, like, Kit becomes like that vampire car?
Oh, what is that movie?
Ferrat, Ferrat the vampire car.
The fucking steering, the, uh, the pedal sucks your blood.
That's right.
Kiva Sutherland poured some of that wine in my tailpipe, Michael.
Now I'm Ferrat the vampire car.
I'm going to live forever and my paint job will never oxidize, Michael.
Is that a bit in that movie?
No, I didn't just made that up, but probably.
I never saw that movie, but I do remember that one other movie, the car, where it's like
an evil car?
Yeah, the car that was possessed by the devil.
Not enough evil car movies.
Yeah, I agree.
There should be more.
I guess there's Christine.
Christine and Ferrette are kind of the big ones.
Everything's down from there.
Can't you throw in tank with George King?
Kennedy.
Yeah.
It's a James Gardner?
Oh, is it James Gardner?
I thought it was George Kennedy was in that movie.
Well, that would be wishful thinking.
Let me double check.
I think it's, by the way, I think like we've been circling doing 1984's tank for 12 years on this podcast.
Maybe we should finally do it.
Yeah, it's James Gardner and see Thomas Howell.
Oh, now we're talking.
Oh, great.
Shock me, he's that in this movie actually, see Thomas.
Yeah, that's a good call.
So yeah, speaking of the wine, you know, he's like, hey, Michael, drink this wine, Michael, be one of us.
And there is a thing here where Jamie Gertz is just like, hey, it's blood.
Just like, like he's getting ready to do it, like Keepa Sutherland's being really loud about it, like very tempting and whatnot.
And Jamie Gertz just real quick is like, I don't know, it's blood.
And like totally useless, does not save him.
Well, because it works because it's sort of like right after the maggots scene, too.
He's like, yeah, right.
oh that's true you're right you're right
yeah just chugging on this
chugging it dude let the good times roll
I have not seen a bejeweled cask
like this which I kind of really want for my own
house yeah I wanted to look up
to see if there was maybe like an Etsy shop
that was getting one of these
yeah something you know yeah totally now
do you think this was Max's blood or David's
blood oh
they say it's David's blood
at one point later in the movie
yeah
because I think it's Jamie Gertz says like
David made you drink
his blood or something like that.
David, we've got cows.
Sorry, it's my Jamie Kurtz
and twist her impression.
Oh my God, there we go.
Instantly recognized it.
Also, she can't spare a square.
Not a square to spare.
Oh, my God. I forgot.
That's right.
That's awesome.
Oh, I love it.
You either.
From at the end.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah. You don't call me.
You either.
oh right because he's working on the sex line
great episode of Seinfeld
so he drinks the blood
and they're like hey we're going to go out
it's the 1980s we do crazy shit like this
let's go hang out on the train tressel
this scene kind of rules
and they're like
the Kiefer Sutherland's like oh perfect
timing because there's a train coming
and they're doing the hanging underneath it
as the train passes over them
I would not do this to fit in
off of a train track
holding on by my
let's be honest
not great arms
even if you're
even though that's
Jason Patrick's shape
which oh man
could you imagine
such a thing
but even if I was in that
kind of shape
I wouldn't trust it
yeah
if I was in that good of shape
not these fucking fat noodles
I got on my arms
no thanks
if I was in that good of shape
I would feel like a vampire
I'd probably think I was immortal
I think for me to be in that good of shape
I would have to be a vampire
Well, you know, we could, guys, I want to, you know, we could take a trip to Eastern Europe.
Sure.
That's true.
See what happens?
Yeah.
Things seem very stable there right now.
A little south of there, maybe.
But, yeah.
And also, you know, conflict will maybe scurry them out like cockroaches.
All the vampires are now running around looking for places.
You might have a point there.
FYI, Gertz, Jamie Gertz facts.
Gertz and her husband.
are part of an investment group
led by somebody named Mark Adatazio
who purchased the Milwaukee Brewers
and later on the Atlanta Hawks
J.B. Gertz owns the Atlanta Hawks.
I never thought. It's insane.
Wow. Jackie Gleeson dynasties
owning baseball, whatever teams. Like,
what the fuck, man? How'd she get all this
fucking lost boys money is my question?
Jesus Christ. That's incredible.
I know. Well, you know what?
Now she can spare a square.
She better.
It's going to spare several squares.
But the hang scene's cool because they all drop one by one.
Through these clouds.
This whole composite shot here looks really awesome.
Yeah.
And finally, Patrick plummets and then he wakes up.
It's like, oh, it was all a sexy dream.
No, it wasn't.
No, no, it wasn't.
But yeah, waking up at 2 p.m. the next day, yikes.
Been there.
And it's a, oh, yeah, absolutely.
um this this this i think is one of the well i guess when you think about the motivation after the fact
it's not crazy but in this moment diane weis should be a little suspicious here because she
calls the house and this is like 2 p.m and corey hams you know like mom's on the phone for you's
and whatnot jason patrick very uh pointedly here has to put the sunglasses on ha ha uh something's
happening here um but she's like listen i've been working at this video store for like two days
and my boss,
well, he asked me out on it.
Yeah, like, oh, oh, no.
And it's like, oh, man.
In the 80s, that's just how it went.
Well, she told him about the closet monsters
and he was right on board.
Absolutely, I know about closet monsters.
Absolutely.
I keep all of my,
they who make my clothing, you know.
I think I did Coke with a closet monster
a couple of nights ago.
Yeah, I mean, he's, you know,
he met him at the monster club.
He also met, you know, a Shadmock
and all those other type of beast.
Der Golem were that was there
Oh a creature from the Black Lagoon
Oh yeah we were hanging out with Goalm
We were fucking with his face all night
It was fantastic
Putting little fucking pieces of paper in his mouth
Yeah like a little note that says
Get me a beer
Oh fuck you man
You know I have to do this
Fuck you all god damn shit
Okay yeah
Comes back next little note
Yeah next round's on you
Okay
I don't know why you hang out with you guys.
A bunch of dicks.
So the mom has dinner plans
and the grandpa's got dick dinner plans.
Absolutely.
Because this guy, he's like, oh, well, your mom's at the dinner,
eh?
Well, grandpa's going out to get some strange as well.
And she asks him to just watch Cory Hayme.
Really, not because he's that young, but just, you know,
nobody's around, you know, he's all alone.
So just hang out with your younger brother kind of a thing.
Right.
And while this hat, you know, while that is going on, this is one of the very cool, like, without seeing any of them, it's just the headlights and the sound effects of motorcycles, the lost boys roll up at the house and you hear like, Michael, Michael, you know, come out, whatever.
And it's just like the motorcycle revving keeps getting louder and lounder.
I love the sound design here.
Yes.
Mike Cody, you should eat your brother, Michael.
Aren't you starving?
Yeah, but that's what's going on here because Corey Hames, like, taken a bag.
like he's seven years old, which is weird.
This is weird. This is like maybe
that like little precocious kid
shit really seeping in it. It feels
like a McCauley Culkin type of scene here.
Ain't got a man.
Yeah. He's like singing and
dancing in the tub. Yeah,
it's kind of weird. But so yeah, Jason Patrick starts
getting some vampire-related
digestive issues and he's starting
to feel the hunger and everything.
And he goes, basically, he goes
into the fucking bathroom to
feed on his brother
and the dog saves him, man.
Here comes Nanook, bites the shit out of him.
Yeah, no, you will not suck off your brother.
But it's weird how the sequence works
because, like, Corey Hames, like, singing and dancing and stuff.
And then, like, he goes under the bathwater,
and that's right when Jason Patrick bursts in.
And then, like, the dog pushes him out of the bathroom
and the door closes.
And then, like, Corey Hame comes up from the water,
like, where the fuck is the dog? What is going on?
And he thinks, because he's, like,
a little freaked out. He thinks you might be a vampire
and he thinks the dog might have been
bit, but no, no, the dog was saved by
him. That's right. Yeah.
We do some cool stuff here
where this is like Michael's
reflection in the mirror is fading,
which is pretty cool. That's cool.
But when they do
the mirror thing too, it's cool because he's fading
whatever. And Corihan's got a great line here. He's like,
you're a vampire, Michael. My own
brother, a goddamn shit-sucking
vampire.
That'd be so interesting of a vampire.
Pirate, like, went butt first instead of the neck.
Oh, yeah.
I don't think you want that blood.
I mean, like, again, you want to talk about some.
But blood is just, you know, it's just a little too close to the shit.
Unless, again, of course, you're into that thing, which is fine.
Or you do the, uh, fucking the, the, uh, Albert Brooks in drive.
Get that arm going.
Oh, yeah.
That arm.
That scene.
That is something.
That blood.
It holds up.
Sorry, folks.
I love that movie.
My wife has a little bit of a blood thing.
Like, you know, uh, makes her wound.
She almost passed out in the middle of the movie drive.
Wow.
Because he just opens that arm up and it's like, wow.
Woo.
Yeah.
But I do like the setup of,
it's one of my favorite Cory Hame Feldman interaction is one of the times.
Because he goes to the comic store a couple times.
He's like, hey man, take this destroy all vampires comic.
And our numbers on the back and pray you never have to call us.
And he takes it.
He's like, I'm going to take this.
And I pray I never have to call you.
just a really funny interaction
well played by the two of them.
Yeah, totally. We should say this is the first time
they appeared on screen together. This is what kicked
off the Corey's. The two Corey's sensation.
Oh, really? Yeah, this is the first one.
Yeah. We got to do Dream a Little Dream
at some point. That movie with the magic
glasses. You know, I don't even...
So what is that? I didn't see it. I don't think
either. Mormon movie? Magic glasses?
I don't know. It's
something, something I'm pulling up right now. God,
it's two hours long. An accident
puts... And it's really, Corey Heyman
is most Michael Jackson phase kind of a thing.
You mean Feldman?
Feldman, sorry, Cory Feldman, but both Corrie's are in.
But an accident puts the conscience of an elderly dream researcher in the body of a brady teacher, a bratty teenager, the problem the kid prefers the dream world limbo to real life.
I have no idea what that means.
Holy shit.
And there's a dream a little to mean dream two.
I think that's the magic glasses.
I don't know.
I've never seen either of these movies.
Okay.
Yeah, I've never seen this.
I'm more of a blown away fan
The TV movie
The erotic
This thing is steamy as shit
And it's both of them
From 1993
I highly recommend
You watch it for 20 minutes
And turn it off
That is the best movie recommendation
I've ever heard
Oh here it is
Dinger and Bobby's adventures
Start with a pair of magical sunglasses
Arrived at the door
Dinger?
Dinger!
Hey Dinger!
They're fucking with your car, man!
Dinger, I hardly know her.
I think probably, aside from this
movie, the second in the
Felt, the Corrie's
License Drives a Fun-Ass movie.
Yes. I've also never seen that.
Oh, really? Oh, my God. You know who's great in that?
What is it? Richard Maysar?
Richard Mazur, yes. Oh, my God.
He is incredible as the dad
who's put upon an angry. Andrew,
you would like that movie a lot, I think.
It's kind of a one crazy night, actually.
Yeah. Oh, no, all right.
Heather Graham.
right there.
And potential sexual assault.
Uh-huh.
Uh-huh.
Because in 1980s and we had a lot of,
we had a lot of fun with that.
Quote unquote, yeah.
Um, so Hame at this point
does indeed phone the Frog brothers.
And it's fucking hilarious, man.
I love how they are just so quick to be like,
oh yeah, you want us to kill your brother?
We'll do it.
Just like offering just so off the cuff.
Like, yeah, we'll fucking kill him.
And then like, meanwhile, Jason Patrick
is like floating on the ceiling.
I love this whole like, I can't control the flying here.
And again, this is, this is very Peter Pan here.
Yeah, yeah.
It's true.
And it also just really fits like a reluctant vampire and like what happened.
Like I was drugged at a party and suddenly floating.
And it's like, what the fuck is this?
Really good, honestly, really good entry for this vampire to go into vampire stuff with the vampire
not knowing what the fuck's happening.
Yes.
Exactly.
No, I think it's such a cool idea.
And even when he does figure it out,
then, like you said,
not wanting to do it.
Like, what the fuck?
I'm turning into a what fuck.
It would be amazing if Corey Hame just goes up to me.
He was like,
look, man, look man.
I know what's going on with you.
Here are these two comic books
that I got from these weird fucking idiots
from the comic book store
who tell me this is really important.
I mean, it's fair.
I'm not going to read all in fucking Bram Stoker's Dracula
in a night.
no why and that's old that's old vampires that's not new vampires you know things change exactly
you get this it's two single issue comics that's what fucking you know 46 pages you could do that
if dracula ever saw kiefer sutherland in this way he would be disgusted look at that dirty scumbat
he doesn't even walk with fresh threads please oh the undead youth of today are such a disgrace all i can say
I never dreamed in my life
Blonde vampire. Look, I'll say it.
Blonde vampire does not sit well with me.
Does not.
Vampires are supposed to be part of the aristocracy.
What are you talking about fun blood?
Oh, blood is fun to drink.
You have to enjoy life, boys.
Oh, the music these kids are listening to.
Ah!
I can't believe a member of my own vampiric undead army
would have such a mulleted
hairstyle like that.
So many radio stations and not a single
vaults on any.
I don't hear a single
quintet, not one.
Eating
Chinese food?
What is that?
What is China?
What is that?
I don't know.
There are all the castles.
Why aren't there more castles around?
oh man so unfortunately poor diane wee's trying to have this nice romantic dinner with edward herman at a restaurant herman is waiting for her and as she gets into the restaurant the phone is waiting for her and cori hame is just screaming bloody murder on the other end yes because michael's like flying and shit he's freaking the fuck out yeah and so you know she she ditches the date and races home without even going in
right? Like he sees him running away
which is pretty funny. Like being
stood up like the
Caesar fucking booking it in the parking lot.
He was just about to make his move and show
the Herman Munster man. That's what he was trying to do.
It does do a great job
of you know
you sometimes suspect him. You sometimes don't.
You feel like all this poor guy.
I feel like his character's handled very
well, Matt. Yes.
Yeah, Steve, you just said show him as Herman Munster.
He played Herman Monster. Oh yeah.
Yeah. He was in the 95.
Reboot or whatever it was.
Oof. Yeah.
You got cast because it was last name.
Well, he's casks is six foot fucking five, man.
We need somebody who looks like exactly like Fred Gwynn.
There's only one choice.
Very true.
Man, I don't know.
That fucking, we'll see.
That Rob Zombie.
I just don't even know.
I think it might be something.
Of course you do.
No, it's not.
I think, well, you go ahead and think that.
Well, it might be something.
total track?
I think it could be other things, but yes,
we'll see. I still actually haven't watched a trailer
yet. I just haven't gotten around
to get ready to watch a porno parody
without any fucking dicks or tits in it.
First of all, you don't know that. Yeah, exactly.
It's an excuse to me. There might be a lot of dicks
in that. No, that's the other thing. It's
fucking PG. He said this repeatedly.
So, like, what are we doing?
Well, I will just turn you
to the poster for Little Mermaid and tell you
Rob Zombie is a very creative man.
You might see some, you might see some
Dick Spires and this is all I'm saying.
You know what?
I don't, honestly, the, uh, the 95 version starring Edward Herman might be a little racier here.
Here come the monsters TV movie, right?
Uh, director.
How is come spelled?
C-O-M, unfortunately.
But the director-
Wait, C-O-M is how it's spelled?
There's an E on the, it's silent.
Oh, okay.
The silent E at the end.
But it's directed by the star of the ex, uh, the exterminator.
Oh, what?
Yes, the previous side order of slees episode on our Patreon,
The Exterminator, yep.
It's fucking Herman Munster just gunning down people.
So whatever, yeah, he gets stood up.
And now it's like, oh, shit, what's David going to do?
This is when he goes back out with the Lost Boys.
This is the feeding scene, which kind of rules, right?
Am I getting my time?
Yes.
This is.
I guess the rest of the surf Nazis here they died upon.
Yes.
Well, he he sleeps with Star first.
Oh, yeah.
They have a sexy sex scene, which rules.
Oh, yes.
It's a welcome edition, honestly.
It is because, like, in most of these movies,
he would be like, he would love her from afar and, like, do everything for her,
but they'd never bone.
It's like, no, if they bone, he's got, he's got real skin in the game, quite literally.
And they're, they're, they're, they're, are they boning to cry little sister here?
Yes, they are.
it does that thing that certain movies do
which actually I like this with
in the Batman of this year when you have
one song that's kind of the thesis
of the movie and it kind of comes in and out
I'm a big fan of that that technique
totally which
which is different than
we licensed an expensive
song and we're playing it twice
on loop or something
you know what I mean like it actually
serves a function
other than just
we're playing it a bunch of times
Because they never play it all the way through and like, it'll just kind of like come in and out.
And they start making it out like, cry little sister.
And you're like, oh shit, we're back.
Blind boys don't lie.
It's a fun little sex dude.
We should talk about the grotesque confederate jacket wearing shit boy laddie.
Oh, dude, what is going on with laddie?
Was this confederate jacket?
It was gray, dude.
Yeah.
It sort of looks like it.
I don't know, unconfirmed, but you, you, it's not impossible.
Let's just say that.
It's about heritage.
You know, we do see that kid on a, a milk box.
He was also missing.
So he was actually taken from the community instead of actually being a drummer boy
from the Civil War, which you're right, with this jacket, I could see.
Yeah, and he's just like basically like Jamie Gertz.
They're not related.
It doesn't seem, but like she's, she's like taken to him and like she's very protective.
right because I guess the little kid
Jamie Gertz and Michael
Michael Michael Michael I have to say it a few times
to say it Michael Michael Michael
they're all the reluctant vampires and
I find it it's great to have that
be a thing in this
yes yeah totally
we do get the there's so
like there's there's three attempts
at Lucy having a
dinner day with Max the second one is like
well we we
I think we sort of or no this
the first one. Yes. Or no, the restaurant is the
first one. The second one is at home. He comes
over to their house and this is where like, you know,
Sam is now really suspecting like, okay, we got to kill the head
vampire. That's what the frog brothers are telling me here. So the frog
brothers come over to dinner. They suspect Max is the head vampire. And they're
doing a bunch of like tests on him and stuff like instead of
parmesan cheese. Corey Hayne puts like chopped garlic all over
his pasta and shit.
and oh they and then like the lights out they're trying to get the reflection and whatever
spilling water all over his crotch it's just a good edward herman being humiliated scene
oh yeah well it's just it's just raw garlic too much which it's kind of really funny
i i honestly i really respect the eyes on the goal if i'm trying to romance diane weist
and make her my vampire bride i'm i'm really dedicated at this point i really you want to throw
shit at me kid that's fine i'm going to be sleeping with diane weeat exactly yeah
1987 Diane Weist and he's just like oh you know
I just want to be your friend Sam like that's the movie you say when you're trying to fuck
somebody's mom it is absolutely funny because he was invited in therefore everyone in the
house has no powers against him and that's like the twist at the end he mentions and
the fact that he just has a reflection now because of that is kind of funny to me but other
than that it's great it's a weird it's a weird little twist I mean just it's kind of a cheat
to be quite honest, you know, it is, but it's effective as well.
Oh, yes, of course.
I saw this movie a while ago.
I haven't seen it in a long time.
I always kind of liked it.
And I always was remembering.
I was like, I think that guy's the guy that turns out to be the head vampire.
And this scene made me go, you know, I think I was, maybe I was wrong.
So it can be engrossed in the movie.
Well, yeah, it's a very obvious, like, great hair.
Because, like, Corey Haim has the idea or is a Curry Feldman.
One of them has the idea very early on that Max might be it.
because they literally go through the steps.
And so they're like, see?
Oh, maybe not.
Yeah.
And then they do, speaking of the garlic thing, like,
they also kind of ditch that when,
not Alex Winters,
but like the second Alex Winters of the Lost Boys,
when he tries to attack the Frog Brothers
and like, he's like,
garlic doesn't work.
Yeah.
And I'm just like, okay,
so was that because of Herman?
Or it's just not,
nothing works?
I think that one
is an in-world
garlic is not a real thing
to the in-world lore
but holy water is
yeah sure right
every vampire property
changes things and has fun
with it so
the what do you call it there
the weird dog scene
I feel like this would be the end of my relationship with
Edward Herman who is also my boss by the way
I go to his house like I think it's after
the um oh yeah because she's apologizing for standing him up and she's bringing a bottle of wine and she's like oh you know just go to his house in the middle of a day like that's normal and this fucking dog is going at her like cooja he's coming to the fucking fence dude fucking wood chips are flying off of this gate i was like get out of there also how do you have these two fantastic dog actors and not pit them against each other right that's the we need dog fighting in movies steedax platform
Not me, I find it abhorred.
No, but it's, one's an evil dog from hell.
Exactly.
Hellhound versus Superdog, absolutely.
That's a movie I'd watch.
Yes, a Michael Vick production.
Oh, God.
God damn it.
So David is like, hey, Michael, if you ever want to see Star again, you need to come with us right now.
And this is the feeding scene.
You know, time to join the club, Michael.
They're getting all revved up to get the surf nom.
who are partying on the beach
here. And for an R-rated movie
there's not a lot of blood and this is the scene where you get
it. Oh yeah. And boy, you get it in such a great way. I love
the sequence. This is where you first see them
vamp out. So this is we get all the makeup effects of them
turning to vampires. Which all looks fucking great.
Yeah, it's really good.
It looks so great. Just we'd
stole it outright. Oh yeah.
Stole it right. I mean, all of the
very pronounced like skull
features and shit.
For Buffy? Yeah. Oh, yes.
It's exactly what they look like
when they vamp out, which is also something
that they steal from this movie and
say in Buffy too. Did Joe Schumacher
come out and like
talk shit on Whedon the way
Joe Dante's talking shit on Baby Yoda?
I kind of really hope so.
What's Joe Dante saying about baby Yoda?
Joe O'Date's like, that's
kind of a blatant ripoff of
Grimley. Of Gizmo.
Gizmo.
he's like it's pretty blatant
I don't know I think it's bullshit
you know is whatever yeah
I mean sure
hey hey if it's Joe Dante versus Disney
guess who I'm back
that no I understand
that but I mean
babies are cute I don't understand
I guess the long ears but again the Yoda
design predates Gremlins
you know what I mean so you would even say
yeah he made Gremlin Yotas
yeah
that said I do support John
Joe Dante and in any
anything, any lawsuit he wants to
have. Dude, that would be amazing
if the, if that's how
Yoda's re- if they are just gremlins
but they're smart. Like Yoda was a gremlin
the whole time.
Yeah.
Feed me after midnight, you must not.
Get wet, I must not.
It's just fucking, eh,
all these little things are popping off his back.
Well, thanks a lot, Joe Dante.
You just ruined the
finale of season three of Mandela.
when we find out that baby Yoda
is a gremlin. Thank you so
much, Joe Dante. We had a synergy
going here, Joe. Well, you know, I mean...
Gizmo caca.
Well, the
baby Yoda was always playing
with shit on the ship, so that is kind of
a gremlin move. It is totally, yeah,
it's a little gremlin. A little gremlin.
I mean, they're both
little puppets. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But, yeah, I mean, this scene is great.
Keep yourself and bite
a dude in the head and the blood is going crazy. Great shot. Yes. Yes. Oh my God. And so we're
like biting these dudes and then like when we are done with them and we are just throwing them
onto a fire like crispy critters. Holy shit is this awesome. Fucking I think you also see a thing like
one of the dudes like gets their arm torn off or something like these guys fuck these dudes
up. And but the whole time Michael's like fighting it, you know.
Yeah, he's trying not to get as horny as he is, which he is, absolutely.
Yeah.
And this is, you got a great key for Sutherland line here, you know, where they're showing like, hey, here's what we are.
And he's like, you'll never get old and you'll never die.
But you need to feed.
You should have been hornyer, Michael.
Should have been much hornyer, Michael.
Drink the blood, Michael.
Michael.
Michael, get horny in this.
Michael.
You need to feed, Michael.
We're both part of the undead now, Michael.
Just have a little sit, Michael.
So whatever.
I like the scene where, you know,
they reveal here that Star is also
officially a vampire.
I mean, she's still like halfway, I guess.
Because the lore in this movie is like,
you're only halfway towards a vampire
until you make your first.
kill. And so
she shows up here and it's like
she's down on the ground like calling up to the
window and the brothers
open the window or whatever. And then like
they tried to ignore and this is where she flies
up. Yes. To the window.
Corey Hain by the way, wearing a shirt here that just says
born to shop.
It's weird. I guess we're trying to
he was like a little rich boy in Phoenix
and now they've no money and
because I think he's supposed to dress a little
gaudier and ritzier
than other kids here.
Yeah, flashier for sure.
Definitely flashier. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
But yeah, so she, this is where we sort of learn all this stuff about like halfway to being a vampire because she's like, you know, you were supposed to be my first. That's what David wants. You know, so that was what that whole sleeping together scene was a little, there was going to be some literally some fucking and sucking going on.
But she couldn't do it because she doesn't want to fucking be a vampire.
It's, it's rule number one. And I mean, if you're into it, that's great.
But, like, anytime some dude is cool with you hanging out with their girlfriend, you've got to really ask a lot of pointed questions.
Just like, number one, are you a vampire?
Number one, are you a vampire?
Number two, how involved are you going to be?
And again, like, there's a lot of, there's a lot of give and take there.
But you just want to know where everyone's going to be in the room.
Also, what's the hierarchy in this vampire?
Can I become a vampire, too, if we wanted to think this over?
How about that, Kiether?
Huh?
You want to, could you do me too?
could you do me too?
I would love to be done
by Keith or Sutherland
Vampire or not
Mm-hmm
So
It's it's
They have Jamie Gertz
And isn't the little kid here too
Is Laddie here this point?
Because
Coriame does have
I think it's Cory Aim has the line
Don't kill anybody
Until we get back to you
To Jamie Gertz
I don't like what they're doing
To all these Confederate statues
Can't be pulling down heritage like that
I'm a little vampire piece of shit
Yeah, you have to call me laddie
My parents said I'm missing
But they don't want me back
Mainly because I talk like this
We had an argument about Stonewall Jackson
And I ran out of the house
My father owned people
I guess in a way, vampires own people, too.
I'm sure. Yeah, they do. Yeah. That's a good point.
So Corey Haim brings in the Frog Brothers and they borrow Grandpa's big ass car to go out to the hideout here.
You know, and there's a great little, I like the relationship between Michael and Sam.
You know, it's a nice brother relationship. He goes, you know, even though you're a vampire, you're my brother, which is kind of funny.
And it's funny. I mean, I like the Frog brothers are.
And, I mean, I think they're mostly right.
He's like, no, we've got to kill this dude.
He's a fucking vampire, dude.
I don't know what's going on.
Right, exactly.
But so when we go to the hideout here, one thing I was thinking about here, you know, we've mentioned this before in different scenarios.
The decorative surfboard makes its way into the set here because I can't imagine the lost boys are doing much surfing.
Oh, well, you know what happened is they took out the Z-boys.
Oh.
They sucked them all off.
They sucked all of them.
and they're all dead now, and they took their shit.
It's a surprising end for the Z-boys.
It's kind of, like, this is sort of funny
because it's like, you know,
the Frog Brothers ride that line between, like,
they're acting like they're serious vampire hunters,
but of course they're, like, little kids.
And nowhere does that play more than here
where they're in this fucking hideout,
where they are looking to kill these sleeping vampires.
And the two of them are just being,
like loud fucking adolescent boys.
This is where they get their most sort of goony almost.
Yeah, we're in the vampire nest.
Where are you vampire?
And they shut the fuck up.
And just shining the flashlights on the vampire,
sleeping on the ceiling.
By the way, cool that they sleep like bats.
I like that.
Yep.
And just like fucking flashlight to the face
and screaming below them before you try to stake them.
I think you decide to go for the littlest one first
instead of the one that's obviously the leader.
Yeah, I mean, you go for the one that's had the most dialogue.
The biggest blackest duster.
That's the one you go for.
You have a vampire brother.
Why don't you use a resource, you moron?
Ask him, what does the big one look like?
I guess he said, well, he's blonde.
It's like, all right, that's eight of them.
Stop there.
He's blonde. He's got a mullet.
All right.
Curly mullet?
Hey, was it curly or spiky?
I can't hear you.
Oh, shit.
Was it curly or spiky?
God damn it.
But this is where...
Is this more of a Bill and Ted situation or more of a 24 scenario?
Is it more of a Bill and Ted situation or a stand by knee situation?
But so a star and Laddie are both in the hideout right here because this is like,
While the Frog brothers and Corey Hame go hunting, Jason Patrick's like carrying them out,
and he tries to get starred.
She's like, no, no, take Laddie first.
And he's like, all right.
Yeah.
It's like that Simpsons with the, whichever that baseball player is,
to keep going back into the burning house.
Oh, right.
Oh, no, my baby.
Oh, no.
My washing machines.
He's got the whole house on the yard.
It's great.
No, the washer goes on the left.
But it is a cool thing.
Someone makes, I think it's like Corey Haim says,
because when they find them all sort of hanging,
it's like, oh, they're not sleeping in coffins.
And then Cory Feldman's like,
this cave is like one giant coffin,
which I thought was kind of a cool idea.
Sure.
Yeah.
That's cool.
And yeah, they fucking kill Alex Winter.
And it's a great death scene for him.
I mean, the thing is what I really appreciate about this movie,
is that all of the vampire dusts are gushers.
They get real fucking wet with it.
And I,
because usually they're very neat.
Like,
it's just an agonized scream and like,
that's it.
No,
they're exploding for no reason.
It's gross.
It's fucking disgusting.
Another person who watched this movie
are Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez
because there's a lot of that dustle dogs.
Definitely.
100%.
Also, the vamping out also, I believe.
Yep, exactly.
And actually,
a lost place gets a name checked in reservoir dogs.
Tim Roth is doing his monologue
and he's like
somebody's calling him for dress like
fuck off I'm watching the Lost Boys
which is kind of wild
That's awesome
That's a great afternoon in 1990 he was having
Exactly
Getting blazed watching The Lost Boys
On videotape
Hell yeah
Hell yeah
But so when they when they stake Alex Winter
And it's this huge fucking gusher
Getting really Slop City
Keeper Sutherland wakes up
And starts screaming
and chases them.
And this is a really awesome, like,
they're trying to get out of the cave here
to get back to the main part of the hideout
where there's more sunlight.
Kiefer Sutherland's fucking hand sets on fire,
which is cool.
I do love much like an older,
an older boy chasing a younger kid
that, like, scuffed into his car.
He just yells out,
you're dead meat, you know?
Yeah, that's great.
I'm going to pound you.
And by that, I mean, literally murder you
because I'm a fucking.
vampire you're dead meat pal
literally yeah it's like
it's a very unvampire
thing to say
you're dead meat
yeah when the vampire of your movie turns into
a neighborhood bully for a second
I don't
what is the line here this is kind of a confusing
thing I think it's Corey Feldman says
they pulled a mind trick
on us and opened their eyes and
talked I think that's just sort of like
a joke that he just
doesn't understand how real vampires work.
Yeah, or maybe in the comic book,
when they're in their slumber, they stay
that way? I don't know what that was.
Oh, all right. Yeah. So he's like,
he's using his comic knowledge
and the real world is giving him a wake-up call
and he doesn't get it. Yeah, I think that's what we're going for here.
And then they said that they're not riding
with the vampires. Like, well, you can stay. And he's like,
oh, no, we're good.
I love the gag when they take him back home
and it's like, Jason Patrick
is carrying an unconscious woman
up the stairs of this house. And the
grandpa comes out of nowhere and he's like,
Hey, Michael, you know the rule
about filling up the gas tank
when you take the car without asking?
And he's like, uh, no, grandpa.
And he's like, well, now you do.
And what did I say
about passed out women? They always
go in the basement, every time
in the basement.
Yeah, the attic's full up
with women right now. Take it to the basement.
You're right, grandpa. You always
always were best with the sledge. I'll go down.
But yeah, that gas line is great.
Now, when you're down there, just don't touch that black phone.
Okay? It's very important. Just don't touch it.
It's going to ring. Don't pick it up.
Somebody's going to ask you some questions. They're not going to even know their own name.
Good movie.
I love the, oh, so Corey Haim fucking runs into,
the video store at this point
and is like, oh, you know,
there's vampires, blah, blah, blah.
And Diane Weist has had it up to here
with this fucking kid.
And it's a really uncomfortable, like,
you're seeing all these customers
at the video store, like,
what is going on here?
Because she's like screaming at him
and he's yelling back
and it's just a real public freak out.
Yeah, I'm just,
I'm literally just trying to rent the breakfast club.
Is this going to take long?
Did anyone catch the weirdest
detail in this video store that you can
see in this scene. No.
There is a promotional
like cardboard standee
for the film Kiss of the Spider
I saw that, yeah. Oh, really?
Yes. Like what a weird
movie to have such a huge cardboard
promotional thing for it? Spider, that's
kind of like a vampire. Yeah, put it in the shot.
Put it in a shot.
No, sorry, we are
fresh out of Kiss of the Spider Woman.
You'll have to come tomorrow. We cannot
keep this tape on the shelves.
I guess I kind of get it as
like, because it's a relationship
between two men. Yeah, and it's
Joel Schumacher. He might like the movie,
yeah. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I mean,
hey, it's, it's an okay movie.
I just, hey, maybe it's just a big,
Rawl Julia fan. That's, that's fine
with me too. Also fine.
So basically they now know, oh shit,
when the sun comes down, we're fucked.
Yep. So it's like
we have a little montage here, like a preparatory
getting ready to go into battle
with the vamps and whatnot. One thing,
I think it's when they're leaving
to go
slay all the vampires
and the grandpa's in the yard
and he is just
put the world's
largest stake
into the ground
and like
I get it dude
I know where that's going
yeah
yeah
because it's like
he's like
it looks
it looks to be like
he's mending a fence
or something
but it's a fucking
caver
it's an enormous
fucking law
another great thing
about that
and the end line
is like
if you talk to
grandpa
he might have been able
to help you
through this entire process
that's a really good point
totally
never fear you know questioning your elderly relatives ask them yeah for information they've
experienced it all before including fighting vampires of course i know there's vampire why do you think i have
all the fucking antlers around man where do you think they're supposed to go right through the
fucking chests oh man this movie does do comedy well like the like the line we just spoke of before
but also the baptizing a baby thing and they're stealing all the holy water yeah that's awesome yeah
the whole church is looking at them and like it's a great thing because like none neither side says anything yeah that's great
it's like the whole like yeah the baptism ceremony stops dead they're filling up these like massive canteens
yeah i wouldn't have necessarily said no to a buzz off padre yeah oh yeah no yeah that'd be good
and then they fill up that bathtub with also garlic and they fill up their squirt guns which is great
as well. Yeah.
And, yeah, the big vampire
raid here. It's, and it rules.
There's some, we have to save
the dog really quick. Love that. Love
that for everybody. And it's a tense moment, man,
because that dog is tied to that fucking fence. And it
looks for, like, these vampires are swooping
in and the Frog brothers are yelling like, they're
coming, they're coming. And I was like, oh, come on.
Get that dog. Every time.
And like, I've seen this movie probably like, I don't know, like five or
six times, maybe a few more. Like, every
time, I'm like, get that dog, get that dog.
It's a great looking dog.
But yeah, so it's like, it's all this cool
shit, like the bathtub filled
up with Holy Water and garlic.
That's a real vampire
stew right there, which is pretty
cool. We got a vampire Skelington with that guy.
And it's the... Absolutely.
The Nook gets the kill. The frog brothers
get the assist. The dog pushes them in.
Yeah, it's wonderful. It's a
big motherfucking dog to shove
with this dude. We got a case of dog.
murder.
The skeleton face is so awesome.
But it's a great exchange, too.
Garlic don't work, boys.
Try holy water, death breath.
That's a funny thing.
Have you guys heard of that in vampire lore elsewhere that they just have bad breath?
I have not, but I don't listen very well.
I mean, it does make sense because if I was a vampire, I would never brush.
Not once.
Really?
it's not once
so you just do what you do now
just keep going
yes just you know
until there's a forest
grown out of it essentially
a layer of moss
is what you want on those fans
the river of slime
I just assume that's part of the
like Dracula powers
is that they always keep you
nice and shiny I mean that's a good point
because like Michael when he got bit
by the dog his hand kind of regenerates
so maybe you don't have to brush
still have to floss though
oh yeah that's especially after you feed
You got a little fucking necklains in your mouth.
All that meat, are you kidding me?
Yeah.
Oh, yes, the number one terrifying sign of a vampire, ginger vitus.
They're just like doing Listerine and then letting out a really big hiss.
This fucking bathroom when this guy goes, though, because like he like goes down the drain and I guess like that just destroys all of
the plumbing in this house. It's an incredible
result of this that I did not
see coming. Yeah, just this, all the blood
shooting out of every fucking faucet in the
house. Oh, what a mess.
You know it smells like shit.
That's an expensive problem
to fix because it's got to go all the way through all the pipes.
Yep, yep.
See, Chris, she'll wish she kept
that dollar at the start of the film.
Yes, that would have made all
the difference. Yes, that will do it. Especially
when that fucking toilet explodes.
Dude, that's when I was like, now this
bathroom is beyond saving. We've
lost the toilet.
And then
Billy Worth gets fucking, Billy
Worth gets killed so bad that
in excess starts playing.
Is this the bone arrow, death by stereo?
Yes. Yeah, yeah, death by stereo, yes.
Oh my God. Billy Worth, who is the
male lead in the Ferrara
body snatches, which I've been
name dropping a couple times. It's very good.
I got to see that movie. I have to see that as well. I've been
actually circling like I need to go through Ferrara again.
There's so much good there.
And I need to do the same.
That body snatchers, I remember.
That cover was a big, like I always saw it at the video store and it always freak me
the fuck out.
That's why I never rented it.
Yeah.
I was a little scared.
Well, yeah, me too.
The Corey Hame does have the badass thing with the bow and arrow because the fucking
vampire goes, you miss sucker.
And he just goes, only once.
pal and fucking pins
this dude to that stereo.
It's fantastic.
And then SS starts blaring
and I'm really happy
in this moment because then it's the
he actually his head explodes
from the electricity
which is always a class move.
I'm really on Schumacher's side on that one.
And then it's the big David
Michael fight.
Michael, come on Michael.
Come on Michael,
fight me, Michael.
Michael are going to fight me now, right, Michael?
Join us, Michael.
Michael, we're fighting.
Michael, I'm punching at you.
here comes my left fist Michael
here comes my right fist Michael
I'm gonna eat your little brother Michael
you know what's his name is it Michael
because then I can say Michael more
even after I kill you Michael
while that's going on
there is a funny moment where like
the Frog brothers meet back up with Sam
and they're like you know
oh we you know one of them says we killed the one
that looked like twisted sister or whatever
and this is when Laddie
like can't fight
turning into a vampire anymore
and he turns and like
explodes out of this bed
yeah that's pretty wild
this and many other things
I was thinking hey I wish Schumacher
did more horror period
and the other thing is if
if you gave that dude one of those fucking
Friday sequels
would be okay oh yeah
actually I bet nightmare
but actually either or either yeah
yeah
I think nightmare or more his
his wheelhouse but yeah I could see both
he should have directed Nightmare 2.
That would have been something.
That would have been something.
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
But yeah, but the revenge of any monster, you know,
or whatever the hell they say, that's funny.
The frog mother's wanting to kill A,
this little kid for no reason.
I would do it, man.
He's growling at me.
Fuck off.
Totally snarling.
He's wearing a fucking Confederate jacket.
Come on.
But Star saves him.
Yeah, that's right.
But yeah, this.
The David Michael fight is cool.
It's the only time they save it.
Like Schumacher's very smart.
He saves it.
This is the only time we really see this much of the flying and everything.
Well, actually, when before Star saves him and they're about to stab him in the heart, you miss it.
But he goes, so much for the tolerant left.
Sorry, I need to do.
Shoehorn that in.
Sure.
I get it.
I get it.
I do.
Yeah.
But I do like the fight between David and Michael.
It rules.
And you're right.
It is like you really get to see it like the vamp the vampire vamping out.
Like this is the first time Michael actually vamps out too.
So he gets his face going.
It's cool.
Yep.
It's all totally red.
And yep, keep his otherland gets impaled on a bunch of antlers.
And what a cue the fucking stupid song again.
Here we go.
Wait, wait.
Do you say stupid song?
Yes, I did.
It's your fucking tongue.
I will not do such a thing.
Oh man. I'm like sparking
my lighter in my house, moving my head along
with it, dude. I'm fucking there, man.
Hell yeah. Vives, dude. Fucking vibes.
Absolutely. Vives are important.
They shall not kill.
Yeah, dude.
But the bummer of it all
is
even though Keeper Sutherland is dead,
Michael has not transformed back
into beautiful Jason Patrick
so he wasn't still
one more. Yeah he wasn't the head vampire
but then you know we kind of
we're marching to the end of this so guess who
shows up. Oh absolutely
Chester Blockbuster comes up
and he's the lead fucking vampire
and the way I mean you sort of like
get the vibe immediately but the
first line that he
has to Diane Weist here is awesome because
he's like so apologetic and he's
just like oh lucy i'm so sorry that david and my boys misbehaved and it's just like oh boom
your who sir dun dun dun and he has this weird thing where he wanted her to be their mother and it's
like thank god that didn't happen for me god that would suck oh yeah and like the implication that
he made david go find michael and he was going to convert her kids and then she would have
no choice but to then join them all yeah interesting yeah just like one big happy happy
family, your boys and my boys. And then the great response, great, the blood-sucking Brady
bunch from Cory Felton. But man, oh man, fucking grandpa saves the day, doesn't he?
Yeah. This was the Lecruca Racha horn.
It's a great touch. At first, I thought the old man just got drunk at that lady's house.
Well, he's definitely come drunk, for sure. Oh, absolutely. Absolutely. Not a fucking drop left in
well clearly he's feeling guilt he's feeling guilt from just fucking this lady and now he's
remembering his wife and he sees the house that they lived in for so long and he's
like it's gotta come down it's all gotta come down yeah I knew there were vampires
in there oh yeah yeah yeah oh my my plan worked perfectly he 9-11s his own house man
it's really something it's so fucking good
He gets him
And then he just walks to the fridge and grabs a beer
Oh man
But dude Edward Herman gets this fucking huge spike
Right through him and blows up
It like straight up fucking explodes
It's incredible
And yeah
And you know laddie's doing okay
Thank God
Sure
And then Michael and Star also
You know get restored to human form
Yeah exactly
It's too bad that like
like time doesn't like regain and like laddie just turns to dust immediately.
Well, no, he's a kid.
He's a kid.
He's local.
He's local.
He's on the milk cart.
So like that jacket is just fashion.
It'd be great if it actually.
Oh, I see.
It would be great if it turned blue when he turned normal.
He's a union man now.
Exactly.
Oh, it's evil for a second.
Holy shit.
That would be fucking hilarious.
There's a great Frog Brothers line here too.
I think it's Corey Feldman again.
He's like, how much do you think we should charge him for this?
Yes, it's pretty great.
And then, yeah, Grandpa just takes that rip beer out of the fridge, chugs it.
One thing about living in Santa Carla, I could never stomach.
All the damn vampires end of movie.
Fuck, that is great.
It is a good mic drop.
It's a good mic drop moment into a, as we said, a pretty subpar, uh, Dora song.
Not many pars, uh, Dora songs, sure.
but hey.
Yeah, what are you going to do?
But it's so great.
I'm glad they went with that ending
versus like them going back
and looking their wounds
and setting up a sequel or, you know, whatever.
I was thinking about it,
is that Lost Boys The Tribe?
Because it came out like, what,
like 2009 or something?
Yeah.
Is that one of the first instances
of a legacy sequel
besides like all the right moves or something?
Not all the right moves.
What the fuck am I thinking?
of money. That's a very early legacy sequel also. We were doing a bunch of those in the
mid-aughts, those directed DVD. Remember there's a roadhouse sequel. Yep. There was, sure.
Hollow man sequel. Any IP that you could sequelize and just do directive DVD, you would do it.
Yeah. But at least, at least with that Lost Boys the tribe though, like, uh, Corey Feldman is in it as
the frog. That's a good point. So it's like there's something there. And
I never saw it, but I was reading also...
There's a third one.
Oh, really?
Who's in that?
At Feldman is also in it, I think.
Oh, interesting.
Well, Kiefer Sutherland's brother is in that second one.
I didn't know there was another Sutherland.
There's another Sutherland?
Yeah.
Yeah, and he's in Lost Boys of the Tribe.
Oh, Jesus, H. Christ.
I got to find...
Well, I'm going to find this thirst, because it's...
Oh, then there's one called The Thirst?
Yes, the Thirst.
Yeah, the Thirst. Yeah, that's the one I was thinking of.
Oh, I was only aware of the
Sutherland?
Yeah, that's his name.
Wow.
Oh, yeah, here you go, Kevin.
You're totally right.
This was, oh, 2010.
Oh, this looks, oh, that looks really cheap, though.
Yeah, I mean, oh, it looks.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, yeah, that's bad.
Yeah, we were able to get one room to film in.
It was great.
We got one room and we filmed it all in there.
Last Boy's three.
But that is it for The Lost Boys.
We'll go around the horn here.
Recommendations and final thoughts.
Christopher Cabin.
You know, I lightly recommend it because when it works, it works really well.
But I find so many times I was just like rolling my eyes and being like, like, I almost don't
think you need a mother character, but you put Diane Weist in the role so I care about the
mother character.
Like that kind of diverts from what I like, which is Jason Patrick flirting with.
with Kiefer Sutherland and Jamie Gertz.
That's what I want.
That is what I am here for.
Do you think it would work better if they were just,
if the parents got killed in a car crash and they were just moving to Grandpa's house?
A glass house situation might actually make this better.
That might actually solve a lot of my problems.
I mean,
the Frog Brothers,
as I said,
I just don't like that they're slowing down the movie.
I'd rather be watching.
Maybe if it was just their movie,
I'd be fine with it.
But the fact that matter is,
is again,
I want to watch these people do the good thing.
And I only get Kiefer and Patrick, like, really having a moment with each other, maybe twice.
And I would like more of that.
And I didn't get it.
But still, gushers are great.
And Herman's great.
Tynewee's great.
Watch it.
There you go.
Eric Siska.
Yeah, a hard recommend for me.
I mean, the runtime's pretty short.
We get in and we get out.
Great music.
Great gushers.
I like the comedy elements, grandpa.
And I honestly, I always thought Corey Phelma.
was a good comic relief and I kind of still do
so it's a it's a recommend
for me
Steve Saneh yeah
Cory Feldman hatred notwithstanding
I really had a ball with this
last last night or yesterday
and it's a full throat to recommend for me
it's a really cool
late 80s vampire movie
Near Dark goes harder for sure
you could find you know the hunger
goes harder but like
I like this kind of
popcorny version of that movie
too. But I do think that the better
to Chris's point, like I said, I think that
it's two movies, that the movie I like much better
is the Jason Patrick
Kiefer Sutherland Will Day, Won't They? Not
so much the Frog Brothers farting
around. I think that's a good
point, though. Pop Corner, that's definitely
what this is. Yeah, oh, 100%. This is a hardcore
recommend for me. It's a, you know,
a real WLM situation.
I think all the stuff with the Frog
brothers works because the movie has
that dynamic of like the
teenagers than the younger boys
and that's just like how those
interactions play in these kind
of like suburban settings or whatever
or any kind of like social teen setting like that
so I don't know it all works for me
I think Cory Feldman as the comic relief
works I think Corey Hame is also very funny
in this movie I fucking
love Kiefer Sutherland
I love Alex Winter I love the look of
the lost boys the whole thing
it's just fucking great popcorn fun man
what a way to end
the season here
Well, there's some popcorn fun.
Can you believe it?
Season 12 is over.
I cannot believe it, but the party does not stop.
There will be live episodes in August that are a ton of fun.
With additional content, we'll be doing a VHS trailer game on our Robocop 3 live show.
And that means Robocop the original on the WLM feed on Patreon.
Which if the finale ends like I want it to, we will be starting the next season with nothing but cry.
Son of a bitch.
Just see.
I'm going to have to game the system here, guys.
Well, I'm in striking distance.
You are.
So I can maybe put down this monster, this vampire that is Chris Cabin.
Totally, dude.
Get a steak through the hearts or don't have to watch John Candy eat hot dogs or whatever
is going on in that movie.
Come at me, Grandpa.
Who's no?
Dan Aykroyd's eating hot dogs with a little literal penis on his face.
Oh, bad.
Oh, man.
but yeah all the patron content
for August is still happening
we are going to have a once
and a lifetime popping off Steve
what are we dropping then oh god in August we're going to be
doing the wrong roommate a David
de Cocktow
classic is the only way to call
it's a lot of fun that movie Eric Roberts
is in it briefly Vivicay Fox is in it
even briefer but it is a lot of fun
I would say Eric Roberts is inexplicably
and I don't think I've ever said that
about him before yeah yeah
makes more sense that Eric Roberts landed in a
talking cat than he does in the wrong roommate.
A talking cat, also directed
by David DeCateau, of course.
So, yeah, all of that's going to be going on,
Patreon.com slash we hate movies.
And Steve, do you recall what is the first
up live episode
out the gate for August as we go on
vacation here? You better get your
prison shoes on.
It's the escape plan, live
from Boston. Oh,
shit, man. Arnold and Sly
in the same movie. Wow.
A lot of impressions on both sides.
That was a fun one.
That was a real fun show.
We had a laugh Boston.
It was a lot of fun.
Thanks for everyone who came out to these shows.
And be sure to see us on the road again this fall.
There will be dates coming up.
And even more importantly, in three short days on Friday, July 29th,
we will be doing a live virtual episode on Ghostbusters Afterlife.
Go to whorepodcast.com for more information.
That's right.
That is going to do it for season 12 of
We Hate Movies. We're going to enjoy our time
off here. Enjoy the live stuff.
Enjoy all the Patreon content
for August and we will see you back
better than ever with brand new episodes.
Season 13, lucky
13 of We Hate Movies starts
this September. Yeah, who knows
man. We're already living through the worst
of it, I think, so I don't know.
So I guess we'll have to wait and see.
But until September,
I'm Andrew Jupin.
Stephen Sadek. Eric Siskin. Chris Kavana.
Take it easy.
