Ooh, that summer breeze.
Do you guys feel that?
Yeah.
All over my hairy back.
I was going to say, we got a couple of saskwatches on the beach over here.
It's so hot.
How you doing, Chewbacca?
Listen, I'm not going to spend upwards of $100 a month every month to wax my back.
It's just not going to.
happen. No, no. And then
there'd be, I feel like a Jersey
City set wax
shortage, you see. Yes, exactly.
That's say that guy, you know, he keeps taking all the
supply. Sounds like a you problem.
You know, not my
problem. I got this hair on my back. I'm
fine. Exactly.
But us four Harry-backed
individuals are here to tell you that, yes,
welcome to Harry and the Henderson's
live in Seattle, you guys.
Oh, this was a lot of fun.
It's a rowdy show.
people were very jazz in Seattle
and so were we this was so much fun
I love Seattle it was my first time going
I really had to be I've always kind of looked forward to seeing
Seattle and it did not disappoint it's a great
fucking town man it is an absolutely
great town and I hadn't been in a number
of years it was cool to get back
and we had like a couple of days
there I think just the way it sort of worked out so we were
kind of like bumming around
had some good uh you know
drinks at some cool bars good food all that stuff
a lot of seafood me and Eric Siska hit up
some chowder places
I did chowder with every meal
every single meal
when we see food we eat it that's
we do oh look at that
and I'll tell you because of the night
we had the night before the show
Eric Siska you saw me
in the worst shape of the day but I was hung
over the day of the show
until like maybe
when we were like in the car
on the way to the venue well how did that happen
again oh because we went out
and we went to a rum bar
where we had dinner
and a bunch of rum cocktails
and then me and Steve
you and Chris were like
oh we're gonna go back to the hotel and I was like
suckers hey Steve this bar
actually has a secret door into this other
teaky bar where we then
went and proceeded to have like
another four rounds
I'm meeting a fan there too if I remember
correctly some dude oh I love you guys I'm like
hey that's an excuse to keep drinking
yeah exactly right so yeah I was
served and over-served.
I remember it all
and it's all coming back to me now.
I would say
let's not do that in December
when we do our 15th anniversary show
at the Bell House. That's right.
Yes, thank you. Yes. Saturday,
December 6th,

We are going to party, hearty.
See you at the bellhouse, Richter.
Yes, get there.

Ever, ever trust.
Don't ever trust her or him or whoever.

WHMpodcast.com slash tour for all that information.
But the fun doesn't stop there, folks.
We are still doing a lot of great Patreon content.
this month. We Love Movies episode
on what title, Andrew? Oh, it
is Casino Royale, my friends. The
2006 Daniel Craig
initiation into the Bond franchise.
And if you're listening to this
on the day that it's coming out, folks, this Harry
and the Henderson's episode on the 5th of August,
this casino royale episode,
it's just coming out this Thursday, August
7th. Hell yeah.
You know what? And speaking of Casino
Royale and taking a gamble, well,
Jennifer Love Hewitt took a gamble
in a little movie really I call the client list.
That's going to be our once in a lifetime
Or this thing spawned a TV series
We had a hell of a time talking about it
I was gambling home
My wife wasn't going to come home
When I was watching it Jesus Christ
I was watching it with my wife too
Well I was tugging it the entire time
Oh yeah that'll get you
That'll get you
Gotta keep the spice
The movie is about getting rub and tugs
And also beeges
And the whole girlfriend experience
So that's right
And that's actually
That's coming out this Friday
If you're listening to this on the 5th, this Friday the 8th, once in a lifetime, the client list.
And speaking of getting divorced, Invader Zim, we're talking about the episode The Nightmare Begins,
which would happen if I ever got divorced, heaven forbid.
Yes, this is the first episode of the show ever.
We are all uninitiated with it.
So you'll be hearing some newbie reactions on animation damnation this month.
That's right.
Dropping 821 as a matter of fact.
And yeah, I just, I can recall the t-shirts and all the hot topic toys and whatnot, but I've never seen a second of this.
I know that he's the little Zim guy and that's it.
Yeah, I see, I saw him stretched across a lot of backs.
I'll say that much.
Speaking of stretched across a lot of backs, Cindy's still in trouble in Melrose's place.
Oh, my God.
Melro 210 continues apace.
We have a lot of heaters on that one.
Melrose place has gotten totally crazy.
and 90210, we are just like having movie of the week territory every week now.
It's a real after-school special stuff, I have to say.
If you're new to the show, yes, we are not even joking.
We recap Melrose Place in 902100, the vintage Classico series.
Speaking of Classico series, we also do The Nexus, which is our Star Trek show,
where we are now continuing on our Toastas.
That's the animated series, the original series.
Did I say that backwards? Perhaps.
Yeah, but it's fine.
And then obviously the next generation, we are deep in season four or more or less, right?
We're just about done with it.
Like the end of season four is coming up, actually.
Yeah, that Melrose 210, you catch that August the 14th.
And that Nexus, you can catch it August the 29th, as a matter of fact.
And one more thing.
The Gleap Glossary for August, we are talking Darth Mall.
Whoa.
Which has the top of the.
bottom. Oh, please let it be the featsies
spider stuff. It's, it's, it's
this is the Star Wars side show where we
talk about old Star Wars
EU, so I'm actually going to read a entry
from before he was resurrected by the
cartoons, which is a lot of fun.
It's a great idea. Tune into that folks.
Catch that sucker on the Patreon
August the 28th. It's a Thursday.
That's right. Patreon.com slash
we hate movies. And don't forget to
pick up tour tickets for our 15th anniversary
show, show, shore, so.
sure, sure, sure. I'm on vacation. Shut up.
On total recall, December 6th, Bell House, Brooklyn, New York, be there or B square.
And I do not have a total recall of what we said at this Harry and the Henderson show.
So I'm really excited to hear it.
Yes, yeah, no. So let's put our sunscreen on, kickback, and listen to the pod.
This is Harry and the Henderson's live in Seattle. Enjoy.
A
A
Skeleton in a sea to die
Tell us what we ought to buy
A bag of cocaine in fear of heart
your heart, support your conscience
not to stop you in the game
Some have to choose for parties that you can't choose your
morning to social class, stuck in it,
that it's hard to pass their social noise
and social rules
With social scale, they're social rules
They tell us all their social lies
Ignoring all our socials
Hello everybody.
Progresso Super.
He did the thing.
I want to get it done right away.
Yes, we are big and hairy, but legally human.
So no shots tonight.
Are you all the sons and daughters of people
who tried to shoot Bigfoot just roamed,
the streets trying to shoot Bigfoot
Wait, someone raised their hand
Oh hey, well there
Are you fucking around
Or do you have some like
Bat shit crazy uncle
Even better
What is going on Seattle?
Thank you all for coming out tonight
I know we didn't schedule this
to go against the Jake Paul fight
And I feel
I just feel devastated
that we're all missing it in real time, but...
I felt bad enough.
We're going up against the Blood Brothers over at the showbox.
That's actually true.
I didn't like that.
Somebody would have told me that back in my 20s.
I was like, what is our own refund policy?
Because I would really like to go to that concert.
We missed them in Vegas.
We were out in Vegas trying to see them,
but we had to leave early.
Because we're old and had to go to bed.
Bed is nice.
Yeah, let's hear it for bed.
Yeah.
Fucking going to see.
sleep! Let's
pull up the blankets.
How many of all are familiar with the show we run
on the internet?
Hell yeah.
Hell yeah. Very few newbies.
That's good. That's what we like that.
Word of warning, if you are new or if you're
coming with a friend, this is a comedy show
where we talk about a movie, good, bad, or otherwise.
And kind of kick it around for a little bit. Sort of poke some holes in it
and whatnot.
Plot holes.
And in this
specific case, more
than you probably want to hear
about Bigfoot's Dick. Oh, yeah.
More than... Just a little bit
more. A lot of genitalia
tonight. Yeah.
Yeah, a lot of toilet talk, as
we like to say. Just a little bit.
So, how many of you all
had seen this movie before we announced that we're
talking about it tonight? Of course.
Well, yeah. It's a Seattle classic.
Yeah, but I feel that's like almost
too low. How many... First timers or
haven't seen it yet at all?
Oh, my goodness.
Yeah, wow.
Wow.
Isn't part of the poster
like on your city's flag or something?
Oh, Harry's on it?
I didn't know.
Yeah, dude, it's a big fucking Sasquatch face.
Oh, very damn.
Mischievous.
Yeah, this is Harry and the Henderson's from 1987
directed by William Deere.
Oh, dear.
You may know him as the director
of previous episode, if looks could kill.
Oh, that's right.
Classic film.
And also, one of my favorites is another one he directed
called the Massacre at Northville Cemetery
where hillbillies and cop
and bikers shoot each other to death.
Wow.
Good.
Beautiful film.
Hillbilly cops or hillbillies and cops?
Ooh, both probably.
The cops are hillbillies.
And the hillbillies are the cops.
Oh my God.
I can't tell them apart.
And there's probably some hillbilly biker cops.
Yeah, that's true.
I mean, it's quite the sharp turn
to go from something like that
to spending what, an hour
and 50 minutes sucking Steven Spielberg's dick.
Like, I guess that's what you do.
I guess that's what you have to do.
You've got to do it.
You got to do it.
Literally, the opening of this movie
is the underwater shots from jaws, but on land.
It's an SNL sketch as a real thing.
What would that be called mouths?
Just mouths?
Mouths.
Mouths are you saying?
Mouths.
Mouthousous.
How do you...
Wait, wait, how do you spell this?
M-O-U-T-H-S?
Oh, was there an E in there?
There's an E.
Well, now I'll never be vice president, I say.
Wait, hold on.
Dan Quail joke fucking Slade in this room.
Can you believe such a thing just happened?
For a minute there, Eric, I thought you were talking about, like, Art Spiegelman was going to get a new adaptation here, and I was unaware.
Wait, but what is more terrifying, though?
Shark, P-O-V- like Jaws, or what this movie is doing, Lisp Gound?
POV.
Well, you're seeing a lot
of soup if you're under the Lithgow
viz. Oh, it's a soup vision
everywhere? Just every time we're in a bowl, every
single time. Is it Lithgow or
his disgusting shit boy rat son?
Holy fuck.
I'll tell you this much.
Let's say, 15
years after the events of this film, that
son character shoots up a school somewhere.
There's no way around it.
I'm sorry, there's no way around
it. He's definitely doing it.
he's known by all three names.
Like, you know what I mean?
Like, everyone's like, oh, William Lee Harrison.
Yeah, that kid's fucking crazy.
We're moving to Boulder, Colorado.
The fucking father has an assassin name.
George Nathan Henderson?
Yes, yep, absolutely.
George Nathan Henderson, you've been sentenced to hang until dead.
By the way,
which I should do to Lithgow in this movie, by the way.
You should not have camouflage for little kids.
Yeah.
What is that?
Why do we have tiny tight camouflage outfits?
That's fucking crazy.
This kid is deranged.
He's a disgusting shit boy.
Of course.
But this is above and beyond.
No, he's a bloodthirsty, disgusting shit boy.
Which is a horse of a different color.
He kills a rabbit in the beginning.
And he's like, he ha ha ha ha ha.
And like his sister, the sister character,
which is always like the older sister's like,
ew, gross.
And I'm like, yeah, I'm kind of...
Yeah?
George says he drew first blood.
I'm like, he just killed a bunch of cops.
I didn't start this
You started this
That makes so much sense
Because he's driving 80 miles an hour
In these dirt roads
To get the hell out of that forest
Yeah absolutely
He definitely stabbed a cop in the thigh
Left Brian Denehy to breathe
For the last time in his life
Lithgow in this
The whole camping sequence here is great
Yeah they're on a camping trip
Is the idea
He's got alcoholic 5 o'clock shadow
It's like a fake makeup
Like 5 o'clock shadow
that you would give
Ray Maland in the Long Weekenders
just this gross painted on beard
I mean like the whole point of this
and the whole point of the movie is to butch up John Lithgow
which what? Nice try
I love John Lithgow he's a great actor
but he's like the most theatrical man
who ever live!
Oh yeah. I don't go hunting!
I read! I live! I fuck!
I eat soup!
I mean that's the point of the movie.
It's all about masculinity.
isn't it?
So it makes sense to have more of a, like,
he doesn't exactly look like
he's the typical masculine guy.
Like, what's it, Craig from...
Craig T. Nelson from the TV series coach?
Polter guys, I was going to say.
Polter guys specifically.
Okay, yeah.
All right.
But so...
We pack up, you know, and yes, to Eric's point,
they are fucking flying down these roads, man.
He's trying to annihilate his own family.
It's like, maybe I'll turn,
and, like, the curve will be too sharp.
We'll go right off a fucking cliff.
If you've got these kids and you're working at your shitty dad's, like,
oh, yeah, sporting.
Shitty sporting goods store?
You're going to want to careen off a cliff.
Oh, totally.
He's on the verge.
Like, that is a person who takes a Bigfoot home as someone who's on the verge of suicide.
Oh, yeah.
Like, that's the last minute decision.
You're really rolling the dice, right?
Like, if I bring it home, maybe it'll kill my whole family in our sleep.
And then I'm having blood on my hands, thank God.
And the car is filled to the teeth with guns.
Like, there's just, and he keeps, like, looking back, like, watch those guns.
back there. I got to tell you, it's a
shitty thing that happens in this scene, though,
because, like, the kids got the little rifle.
They used to kill the rabbit. A little rifle.
What do we do with little rifle?
Well, they got to start sometime.
Little Rambo starter rifle.
Apologies if you grew up
with little rifles.
No, it's L-I-A-Postrophe L
rifle. And it's adorable.
It's got little googly eyes on the front.
Hey, kids, point my nose away from your
face. It's got
BBs, right? Sure.
No, it's got little bullets.
No, that's what it is.
Well, that's what you call little bullets is BBs.
I guess.
To go with the cuteness of the little...
Oh, but I want a real bullet in there for the kid.
I want the kid to be able to shoot you.
I'm saying it's definitely a real bullet.
They just call it a BB.
It's make it sound kid like you.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Don't worry. This kid's killing things.
For sure.
That I know.
But zip it down.
But yeah, you're right.
He lies.
Oh, that's, yes.
Because he's like, and I didn't even bring my rifle.
And then, like, when they run this fucking thing over,
he's like, my rifle!
Bring it to me now.
Ernie, hand me the hand grenades.
I'd be like, you told me, George,
you weren't bringing your rifle on this hunting trip.
I only brought one thing to C4, okay?
It was only one brick, and I kept it in the back.
It's a miracle Nan doesn't walk.
Yes.
This guy's a nightmare.
Nan played by the great Nalinda Dillon.
She found this script like all of them,
and Terry Gar is garbage.
RIP.
RIP to both of them.
actually.
More recently, Terry.
Yes, yes.
Much more recently.
Both in close encounters, though.
There you go.
How about that?
She won eventually.
Close encounters with the grave, now.
Very close, Eric.
Very close encounters.
Paranormal encounters, I think, is what I'm looking for.
Ghosties.
So whatever, man.
He hits this fucking eight man with his car.
He hits the eight man with a car,
comes up to it with the rifle,
thinks about it for a second,
and maybe I shoot it, maybe I don't.
Gets it on the top of the car
because I'm going to make a billion dollars off this
and then guess what happens?
The same scene essentially happens.
Yes.
The Bigfoot goes on the thing and is laying in the ground,
he's like, get me my rifle.
And slowly goes up and points her off and says,
nah, maybe not.
It's like an editing mistake.
I'm like, did it happen again?
This has been 10 minutes.
Like, I don't want to get to, like, technical and whatnot.
This is one of the worst edited films
I've seen a really like.
Shit just vanishes.
Seens just stop before there's.
natural conclusion, it's fucking amateur
hour. Total gags that they just
leave on the floor. Who knows
why? Yeah,
the disgusting shit boy is very excited about
this. Ernest. Kill it. Kill it.
And he's got these little Jeffrey
Dahmer glasses on.
Dad, when I grow up, I want to work
at a chocolate factory. I mean,
this child is obsessed with
killing animals. Yes.
That's not right.
The sign, that's the number one sign.
to grow out of that by this age.
Well, that's his arc, Eric.
He learns that at the end of this is that he should not do that.
But I do like the idea of, like, lens crafters
of somebody having a Jeffrey Dahmer line.
Oh, yeah.
You know what?
Get into the true crime thing.
Just get the different glasses of different serial killers out there.
If you look at them, they're pretty sharp frames.
You know, like, did the guy do some bad stuff?
Absolutely.
Listen, Dahmer in 2024, like a 1980s, Dommer in 2024,
cleaning up in Brooklyn.
Absolutely.
Cleaning the fuck up.
Yep.
A magnet for all that.
Pussy and otherwise.
But I don't...
Pussy or otherwise.
Absolutely.
Yes, indeed.
Checks out.
Yes, sir.
It's going to be in my Twitter bio.
No.
They do a pulley system to get this book on there.
What the fuck?
How did you figure this out?
Were you out there for two hours?
No, see, here's the thing.
With the magic.
of editing you don't have to worry about it because
he puts his dumb feet up on the hood
you see a rope that he pulls on and we cut
to this thing just on the car
because Lithgow is a big guy but everyone else is very small
I just wanted because they make the
daughter help with this when did she
see the genitals? There's
comments later... First thing.
You know like they're hoisting this thing up
Harry's Harry's flapping around
this is an argument we've been having
for the last 24 hours
I'm sorry Harry
is a grower, not a shower.
That is the situation we are in right now.
I think you're right.
That is it.
What you're looking at is the dreadlocks covering it.
And to be fair, it's fucking cold out there.
Christ.
It's cold, it's damp.
Lord knows I've been looking.
It evolved to have a hairy cock
because of the conditions outside in this city
and the woods or whatever.
Because there is, later on the movie,
they're like, how do you know, Harry's a boy?
And then she goes, mom, I know.
And she practically goes like,
Which is like, what does that mean?
Did it get hard?
I don't think so.
I'm not sure if he's ever getting hard.
But it's not just like a, you know,
fur encumplement over it or whatever.
I think it's also got to be hairy, right?
You think it's part of it?
You think the hair is part of it?
I do, yeah.
Steve, you want to go get a beer?
Yeah, okay.
And just think about...
Like I said, this has been a long argument we've been having.
I'm telling you, grow or not a shower.
I just know it.
I just feel it.
Think about the, you know, the ass smell, and you're not getting, like, that's, that's, that's, that asshole is hairy as well.
You got, you know, you know, you think he's, everybody is, he's not going to find a pristine stream every time he goes.
Every time, they, they are talking about how it smells every time, and I guarantee you, they are underselling it every time.
Like, it's just got to be a cloud of the worst smelling shit ever.
But, listen, I need somebody to, like, just, they run out of the room puking.
They take one whiff, and they got to go.
They'll get there tonight, these people.
I say this, and I don't wish this upon you,
but you'd be the funniest person to get Alzheimer's.
I think I already have it.
You'd be, like, in the home, just be like, Bigfoot's Dick.
Oh, Shrek's Dick.
It's huge.
Oh, Shrek's stick.
Could you believe it, that it runs in my family.
Mine, too.
Yeah.
Yay, for Alzheimer's.
To brain death.
To brain death.
No, you're a Garfield's dick, too, huge.
Just a huge one.
Oh, Kermit the Frogs Dick.
Is it time for my pills?
We cut to this evil-looking hunter
who's supposed to be this badass motherfucker,
and this is David Suchet,
who's played Poirot 70 times.
Yes.
And once you learn that,
this guy is no longer threatening in this movie.
Not at all.
And also, vaguely Middle Eastern terrorists
from executive decision.
Yep, oh, big time.
Yep.
He's got range.
He does, indeed.
Yeah, between him and Lithgow, it's like PBS fucking brawlers, you know?
Let's see him go at each other.
Well, that's why you got to bring in, like, just, like, bulwarks of masculinity, like, M.M.
Walsh.
Yeah.
And Don Amici, manly men.
Donimici definitely kicked the shit out of some people in his prize.
Oh, yeah.
Back in a day.
Oh, yeah.
He's done with the horse.
The undiscovered murders of Los Angeles?
Don Amici. At least four. At least four
he's got. Back in the, black
Dahlia, he cut her up. That was Donamichi.
We questioned Amici, but he was
at a bar. His girlfriend said so.
So they
take this fucking thing home
against any common sense whatsoever.
If you do this, you've got to slit its throat.
Let it bleed out on the way.
Not if you're waiting for it to
slit your throat, as this man clearly
is. As we find out, he's
also just not happy with his job.
He works at his father's
gun store slash hunting supplies store.
And we don't see enough of this,
but we should really see these scenes of him
just being like, I need to get out of here.
I need to stop this.
Oh, God, I'm going to kill the...
Ernie keeps talking about the little guns.
We got to get out of here.
We got to stop this.
Do you think that's like what...
Maybe his motivation for the camping trip
is like maybe an accident will happen
and he can be free of it all?
There's a lot of high cliffs there.
Ernie goes searching.
Whoops, a little slip.
Oh, I would love that.
Nice good sun ending for him would be wonderful.
I would love that.
If this movie ended with a puppet of that kid being thrown off a cliff,
five-star affair.
Five-star affair.
You do it now to stop a good son situation.
That's right.
That will be happening.
Now I'm imagining John Lithgow holding both Harry in one hand
and his tiny, tiny son and the other.
Dude, I would hold...
Well, I'm sorry, he's my best friend.
And he looked to go.
I would hold on to my furry best friend 10 out of 10 times.
Absolutely.
Feeling his shoulder pop out with...
I'm like, Harry, I love you.
I love you.
The real move would be...
let them both fall.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's an abomination, that's a monster
that shouldn't be alive, and then that's,
yeah, and then that's Bigfoot.
Yes, yes indeed.
I mean, Sarah's going to be
out of the house soon? Work on your marriage.
That would be nice. That would be a good thing to do.
Yeah, that needs a little work too, especially in the scene
where she comes into the room and she's like,
George, come to bed, and he's like, I can't,
I'm sketching Bigfoot.
Oh, my God.
Dude, come on, man.
You keep up excuses like that.
There's not going to be many more opportunities.
I don't think so.
They get home and they park the, it's like Encino Man.
They park it in the garage and they leave it.
Well, that's where you leave garbage like that.
Okay.
Even Bigfoot?
Well, so you don't want your neighbors to see it.
Well, but also, this is the thing that's going to make you billions as he thinks.
So why not keep it close to you?
But at 5.30 a.m., he just bolts out.
He's like, oh my God, I get to play with my monster corpse.
He's so excited.
He's like a kid coming down on Christmas morning, man.
He gets the measuring tape.
Let's see how long this thing is.
First order of business, shave it, dude.
Let's see what that looks.
We need him to blend more in society, so we just shave his whole body.
I'm shocked it doesn't have a scene like that, when they put him in clothes and he's shaved.
And he's like working at the gun store.
Dude, this guy's just got a little tie on.
How could I help you?
He might be able to, they both have huge foreheads.
He might be able to sub in for him.
Yeah.
He looked, they look related.
Yeah, a little bit.
But then the biggest burn of all time is M.M. at Walsh one day, like, comes into the store
and he goes up to Harry
and he's like,
now see here.
Don't let George hear me telling you this,
but I kind of consider you my favorite son.
Plus, you're a much better gun salesman than he is.
Okay.
We should say,
M. M. M. Walsh, a great M. Walsh.
Everybody knows who he is.
Yes.
The best.
The best.
The king.
Only 10 years older than John Lithgow.
Yeah.
So, like, obviously he's probably playing.
being older. But I like to imagine that he did get a woman pregnant in 10 years old.
Yes. Yes, absolutely.
Oh, yeah, I left my first communion with a big fat envelope full of money, went out whoring with it,
you know? They used to call Pike Place used to be prostitute point.
And you just go there and you'd get yourself a whore and then you would go home.
All my little friends will play with micromachines. I was playing a big fat tithes.
I was making him talk to each other.
How are you doing?
Not bad.
She thought it was weird.
And then him raising the little baby at like 11.
Oh, I would love that.
But so, yeah, so the thing is Bigfoot has awakened and is now rampant.
The structural damage to this fucking home.
Oh, dude.
And, you know, like, what do you say to the insurance company for this?
Like, there's no, you know, insane missing link coverage.
No. But to go with the Jaws thing, I do think at some point
one of the families should say, we're going to need a bigger home.
Man, I feel like that was in the movie, and Spielberg was like,
take it out and take it out now. But keep in the carry
reference in the family film. Make sure the carry reference gets in there.
It's impossible to have a bigger home than this. I'm sorry.
This dude, again, 1987 before Reagan, fully fucked the middle class.
This dude is working at a sporting good store.
One single income in the house, fucking six bedrooms.
And he doesn't even own it.
He's like the assistant manager.
They're living like the Simpsons.
It's crazy.
And lobsters for dinner.
Monsters for dinner.
Walsh doesn't have any other kid.
He doesn't have a brother or sister.
So he gets the whole hunting fortune.
Eventually.
Eventually.
But remember, he's only 10 years.
He's going to like get it at 70?
Yeah, yeah.
He's only 50 right now.
Not even be able to do anything with it.
Yeah. It's too good.
But so Harry is
rubbaging through the refrigerator. He's
destroyed the refrigerator.
And this is actually like a genuinely
well shot and executed
like terror kind of scene.
It's like more horror movie than not because you don't know
he's a big friendly guy yet or whatever.
And it gave me the thought,
we need an uptick in better
Bigfoot related horror movies.
It's been a real fucking drop-off
for like a really long time now.
Gotta bring it back.
Just one.
As far as I know, the legend of Boggy Creek is the only good.
No, we did the one where the guy gets his dick ripped off.
Night of the Demon.
Yeah.
The Red is holding a lot there.
The word good is like, I mean, Chris Cabin, I don't know what to tell you.
A dude is taking a leak on the side of a road.
And a big foot reaches his hand out and grabs the man's genitalia and pulls it off the spot.
I will say good scene.
Oh, sure.
Yeah, I guess the rest of the movie isn't that great.
And that's the thing.
It's like, you've got to be terrified monkeys and man monkeys.
They're going to rip your genitals off, they're going to rip your face off.
Man monkeys, like Mickey Dolans and those guys, Mike Nesmith, the man monkeys.
Like a Harry of the head of the big foot.
Oh, right. Oh, sorry.
Okay.
No, yeah.
Maybe I agree with that, yeah.
Cheer up sleepy hairy.
And they're just ripping your dick off, your face off.
But at least there's a nice tune to it.
Yeah, no.
Listen, I feel like having your penis ripped off set to the tune of Daydream Believer is better
than not.
Like if there was no music on
You know, you'd be like, well at least
You know, that was a sweet little song that was on when it happened
Then you'd probably never be able to listen to that song again though
Because it just makes you think about that time my penis was ripped off
Yeah, sure, sure
For a dick rip in Bigfoot
And a homecoming queen
Yeah, see? It's great
It's totally great
It takes everyone way too long to wake up at this house
And when they do, no one is reacting appropriately
to a Bigfoot being alive in their house.
It's just kind of like a surprise.
Like, oh, okay.
It's like those Folgers commercials
where like someone wakes up
and the brother comes home
and it's like, oh, wow, you're in the kitchen.
Cool.
They're all smelling the air,
but instead of going,
oh, oh, oh.
So you want the teenage girl
to go off, you're like,
you're my gift this year, Bigfoot.
Yeah, that would be pretty good.
Thank you because I couldn't think of
what the line has from that commercial.
Oh, that's burned.
into my fucking brain.
As it should be.
Those two aren't just weird
around the holidays in that commercial.
You know, he's been at college
a really long time.
She missed him.
We've really been pushing
for separate Christmases
because it's been weird.
It's been weird.
I'm just going to say it.
If you don't recall the commercial
we're talking about
the two people
we're discussing our brother and sister.
That's what's going out there.
But this little,
like the little boy should be like
pissing his pants
and he's just like, oh, wow.
No, no, no, no, no.
It's my new best.
friend and he smells like a
dead person. He's like, I own this
now. I own this.
This is mine.
The daughter is the one that first point out, he
smells bad. Yeah. And it's just
a good point here. I mean, nothing against the person
I'm sure she's incredibly nice, but
this is one of the worst performances.
You'll ever see... She's not great.
In a movie. It's real, real bad.
She's the one that has to not love
him. She's given the dog of the
role. Like, they're like, you're the one that
doesn't get it until he
romances her with flowers.
We got to talk. Should we
jump ahead to that scene, my God?
Eric is like shopping at the set-up for it
right here. Well, you know,
okay. She freaks
out. This monster eats her
corsage, right? So to make it up,
he brings a bunch of flowers.
This is after he's already exposed himself
to this girl. Yes.
He brings a bouquet of flowers.
She's in a nighty,
and then she's receptive
to receiving the flowers.
For sure, yeah.
He tosses her on the ground, cut to her in different clothing in the kitchen with Harry.
He's smoking a cigarette.
What the fuck?
And she likes him now.
All of a sudden now, she likes him.
She loves him now.
He's making her eggs for some reason.
God damn, dude.
Now, I don't understand.
Something about the corsage, though, that's really fucking mind-boggling.
She makes this huge stink.
Like, oh, he ate my corsage.
She specifies this as a 15th birthday corsage.
Now, this is one of the whitest
fucking families you'll ever see in a movie.
I don't think a kins is going on, right?
We ain't having a kinsenero with this family.
So you gotta say it's my prom corsage
because also, what are you talking about?
What the fuck is a 15th birthday corsage
with this fucking slice of wonder bread?
I don't understand it.
How important was it for us to know
she's exactly 15?
Because that's the only reason I can imagine
It just makes it more disturbing later.
I guess so.
I guess it just adds on.
This is the family, right?
Oh, 15.
You're starting pretty late.
Exactly.
I was hoping for grandkids, you know.
I was about to write an article in the New York Times about how I'd never be a grandfather.
Dude, what a waste of resources that fucking article was.
Holy shit.
The New York Times wasting.
Resources? What are you talking about?
Dude, well, it's the hidden
tragedy of not becoming a
grandparent. Fuck you.
And they have... What are you talking about?
The picture on that article
is like when someone's like
son dies in a shooting.
She's like holding a picture up like this.
Like, I'm not having a grandkids.
Fuck you. I don't care.
Cut out the middleman. That
grandchild would have just died
in a shooting. Yes. So
you got the somber photo
so you're fine. I don't know, lady. Get a
hobby. Pick up the
crossword. The tragedy of dying
poor in the fucking street. How about
that? That's an article. Do you know how big
those... No, but I need
my biological sludge
to continue. You know
those fucking crossword puzzle books
and those Sudoku books, they get really big
these days. They do. There are a couple of them.
Volumes. Yeah, get lost
in there, non-grandma. Yeah, you can
work on them right until you
blissfully die. That's, I do
hope, after this article, she just is
called that.
Non-grandma.
Just like the not-grandma.
Oh, you're the not-grandma.
Not-grandma coming.
Who are you baking cookies for?
Nobody.
Your friends?
You disgust me.
Who are you putting
$5 in a birthday card for?
No one? Just what I thought.
I lost a grandson that was never born.
I guess maybe the real tragedy
is you don't know who to call when you have to fucking
change the input on your television.
Oh, yeah, totally.
That's true. Yeah.
What am I going to do there?
Harry might be able to feel that one.
At Oxby.
You won't have anybody to stop you from buying
fucking, like, visa cards.
You mailed a dude that's suspicious addresses.
Do these people have neighbors, by the way?
Apparently not.
Is running around the outside of this house with a rifle.
He puts a ladder up to the window.
If I'm looking out the window, that's like, call the police.
That's how, like, what is
big fat Greek mama doing?
Like, why isn't she looking out
the door right that moment?
Lainee Kazan is the shitty neighbor, yeah.
This kind of character, they set her up
to be the type who's just like, I heard something.
Yes.
What is everybody doing in here?
But you don't do anything.
Nothing.
And also, he's got the fucking big foot
at his sights, dude.
Show me the pink mist.
This is it.
You've got him.
That is the funniest shot in the movie
is Lithgow having this thing in his sights,
and it's just a picture of Harry in the scope site.
Oh, laughter for days.
So beautiful.
And he's mourning.
He's mourning the minkses that died.
Oh, yeah, he's like burying dead animal things
that this house is filled with, by the way.
Real Texas chainsaw shit going on here.
Lithgow is a killer.
When they're leaving the forest, they're like,
oh my God, the first time you didn't murder anything.
Yes.
Only the child murdered this time.
Oh, Grandpa, I was always best with the sledge.
have some of this sausage I made
where did we source it locally
this lamp is made out of human hair
why yes I do make the best chili in Texas
I do
well that's what that movie's about
we got to adapt to it's a fucking 50 year old movie
I don't know what to tell you
in Seattle he makes human chowder
yeah yes that's more like it yeah yeah
Oh, I thought you were setting yourself up for your own joke about human chowder.
No, that was it.
All right.
What's it going that way this time?
See, even after 15 years, you manage a surprise.
Oh, you want to say it's come or something?
Okay.
You want me to say it?
Okay, I'll say it.
Come, okay.
You want me to say it?
I'm not filthy.
These guys make me do it.
It's true.
They're like, stop the show.
Wait, no.
You got to say the come.
When we're recording in New York, you know, at Andrews, you know, stop the show, he's got to, take that again, say, come.
We hit him, we hit him.
I normally would say that it was older boys bullied you, but you're the oldest one here.
Oops.
I'm actually your dad.
What?
Sure.
He got started early, dude.
I got started early.
At one.
I was one.
I was getting my first stuffed dinosaur, and this lady walking.
and I just had to have her.
Oh, no.
So he tries to call the cops.
The cops totally laugh at him,
which is expected.
Sergeant Mancini, by the way,
which I like.
My brother said there's a
Bigfoot in Washington.
This should have been called
a Bigfoot in Washington.
A better movie.
Yeah, you know.
It's a classier title.
But he realizes that he can't
shoot and murder this thing.
That is more like a
a man than not, like a person.
Because he's got these big old eyes that like the Rick Baker
fucking spent months on to get the
yeah, Rick Baker claims this
was like his favorite thing to work on.
It is, you know, for, you know, we're making fun
of this dumb movie, but like the hairy
suit in the head especially is really great in the
mechanic shit with the eyes and whatnot.
It's impressive. It's impressive. And it's also fascinating
looking at the trailer that we just played.
They don't show him in the trailer at all.
Like, and now we're in, look, where
you know, everything is shown in everything.
But apparently like people were, like, I guess
after the fact they were like, maybe we probably should have
showed it. People would have showed up to it.
Oh, I forgot. This isn't Harry
and the Henderson's final trailer.
Oh, yeah. I did the
first one, you see. It was a series of
four. We got to the final trailer. He's
all over it. There's deleted scenes
of Harry. I do like the idea of the eyes
like that you see
him and you're always looking at the eyes and that's all the
emotion comes from him. And I just imagine
like, I guess it would be Don Amici who would
have to say, he had
beautiful eyes, the eyes of a human.
human eyes.
Oh, yeah.
See, but then
Donamichi needs a quint-esque
monologue about, like, him
and his ROTC buddies were out training
in the woods one day and all of a sudden they got
attacked by a fucking gang of
Sasquatches. Yes. That's the thing
that I think, I guess Perrault
is more of the quint in this situation
and he would be more of the hopper.
So he should
fuck John Lithgow's
wife at some point.
They
Yes
Dona Michi
runs a roadside
like museum thing
And
They're real loose with the word
Museum
It's a garbage store
Yeah
Combination
One of the famous
Combination store
It's a gas store
It's an antique store
It's a big food museum
And like he's kind of over it
But David Zuchet's like
I saw him
I saw him
I'm going to get him
And he's like I will
You know he's like
Yeah you do that
Jack
You start shooting people
in the street
I got a hungry man
dinner waiting for me
Why is a Frenchman hunting
Bigfoot here? Excellent question
Because he's a renowned
beast hunter man
He's heard lore and he's got to come
All the way
Big part of his bullshit story
Nobody cares about
Farewell in adieu to you
Big Smelly Bigfoot
Farewell in a do you smelly big foots
Fucking weird owl over here
I love it
eye in here. Channeling the master.
They say, though, that they have both dedicated
their whole lives to Bigfoot hunting.
Sad stuff.
Yeah. Not good.
Like, later in the movie,
Amici's got some line about, like, oh,
I used to be this respected scientist,
and then one day I saw a Bigfoot,
and I got obsessed with it, and then all my friends
hated me, and I got fired.
And then I started a podcast, and they just left.
No shit.
But to the next morning,
Lenny Kuzad does come into
return their tiny Jack Russell
Terrier that I guess they boarded with her
while they were hunting or whatever.
This thing, when this thing sees
a big foot, little dog heart attack
it's dead. It's just like, hey,
over. Yeah, yeah. This thing is
not surviving seeing a big foot.
All I can think about is like how much
like edibles they had to give
this dog to fucking drug it
so that it could stand next to the big
hairy costume and just not run away
every time.
It's incredible. Here's little Bob's, little C.B.
D drip we got going here.
He's doing just fine.
He's got a main line.
Long line.
Goes all through the house.
These fucking neighbor characters,
though, like, she's awful.
But the other thing is, she lives
next door to them.
You wait until, like, the next day to get
your, like, I'd be getting that dog that night.
I'd be knocking on the door.
They got big foot in the house.
No, get me my dog back home.
Fuck that.
She's a, we need a body count.
She should be killed.
Yes.
By big foot.
Or, you know, David,
Jushets is like, oh, I have him in my sights,
and it's just the back of her head,
and he thinks it's Bigfoot.
Mondeu, I've killed another woman.
I have to go to another country to hunt some other beasts now.
Mondeu, it appears I have done this movie of favor.
That'd be great, right?
She's always talking about Lenny Kizan,
is talking about her husband, Herb,
who we never see, I was waiting for him,
But one of the first lines you hear is her in the house
where she sees everything's smashed, everything's for shit.
And he's like, it looks like after me and Herb had a fight,
I'm like, oh, Jesus Christ, what the fuck?
You have to put it up, are you okay?
Yeah, like, are you safe right now?
Do you need to stay here?
Yeah, exactly.
All of a sudden it turns out of this weird domestic drama.
Where the fuck's Bigfoot?
That Herb's a monster.
It's domestic disturbance, but with a big foot.
I found Herb in the woods, can we keep us?
we keep him.
Domestic disturbance the movie with Bigfoot, though?
Better movie.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Get John Travolta right out of there.
You could switch that very easily.
Harry for John.
Get Travolta in a hairy suit.
That's fine.
Yeah, I'll do it.
Sounds fun.
Well, this wig is longer than my normal wig.
My very good friend Pitbull will write a song for it.
I'm so glad Pitbull finally had to talk with that guy, though.
Yeah, definitely.
He convinced him to go bald.
Embrace the bald.
Do it.
I don't get to say this much,
but thank you, Pitbull.
I mean, yeah.
Thank you so much.
Travolta saw Pitbull getting pussy
slash whatever and
whatever else.
And he went for it.
He's looking in the mirror.
He's like, yeah, pit bull's right.
Just slowly pulls the wig off his head.
I like the slash whatever tab on Pornhub.
Yes.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm going to go out and get me some whatever.
Yeah, just give me something piping hot.
I don't care what it is.
Yes, sir.
You like piping hot with sex, huh?
Well, do I ever fetish for you?
After this, we'll be searching glass tables.
So the next morning, he's up and he sees a television program.
And it's hosted by Jimmy Seville.
No, Jerry Seville.
Jerry Seville.
Oh, Jerry Seville.
would be weird if Jimmy Seville
was on some local Seattle news program
It would be strange, but how did he get there?
They made a lot of weird choices, I'll say that.
You're jumping ahead, this is after Harry escapes.
Oh, that's an escape. Oh, sorry there.
No, no, no.
So he, they spend the day training, Bigfoot.
He trains him to sit by...
Sugar cubes.
Sugar cubes.
And he is Chris Farleying this fucking whole house.
Holy schnikes indeed, dude.
It's incredible.
And I mean, like, at a certain point,
the house just isn't worth saving.
Like, he's going to burn it down.
Insurance scam time.
It's just not even safe to be in the house anymore.
It's just going to crumble.
Like, those are load-bearing walls.
The basement stairs are gone.
The stairs upstairs are gone.
Move into the garage.
That's your best.
Let him stay in the house and you go into the garage.
That's the best way right now.
But they realize, you know, he wants to, he's talking about going on Carson and with this thing.
I'm going to have it do tricks on Carson.
You're out of your goddamn mind, dude.
And she knows this as much.
She's like, let me talk to you in the kitchen for a second.
for the Carson show calls.
Ooh.
He thinks Time Magazine is going to pick this up.
What are you talking?
Bigfoot, it's a silhouette.
Man of the year.
Yeah.
Man, question mark?
Oh, yeah.
Man question mark.
They, so we have to set him free.
That's the only way to do it.
And it's the night of, and they're using
nondescript fast food to get this thing in the car, right?
Right.
That's the restaurant.
It was called nondescript fast food.
I don't know if that was a local thing.
You guys love that stuff, right?
Local chain.
And the kid...
What? Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Wait.
One person at a time, because it's not that big of a deal.
What is it called?
Dix.
Dix?
Not sporting goods.
Okay.
Hamburger.
Eating goods.
Dix eating goods.
Dix eating goods.
Oh, that's the number seven.
I feel like...
I need some hand.
Wait, wait.
The number seven, big bag of dicks with cheese, large Diet Coke.
I feel like this is a scam.
Everyone met in the parking lot.
Like, all right.
If fast food comes up, we're going to say that there's a place called Dix,
and they're going to believe it.
And then tomorrow they'll be talking about it and look insane.
And on all their phones, they're going to be searching Dix,
and the search results are going to be great.
I was about to say, what is this?
My search history.
It's Dix, whatever's Pipe and Hot, glass tables.
There's just no way.
There's no way the milkshake
is called a blowjob.
There's just no way.
There's just, I can't.
Yeah, it's more of a dairy queen title, I do.
I got a delicious
piping hot bowl of human chowder at Dix.
Just say it.
Okay, I'll have a bowl of cum.
Thank you.
Yeah, I had to like get it out of a funnel
myself.
It was wild.
Yeah, the self-serve policy at Dix is kind of annoying.
It's so slow to serve.
Pull up to the window.
Tug for chowder.
Tug for chowder.
I'm square out, boss.
I'm done.
They tapped me out.
We'll swap him in for another kid.
Roger, you're up.
So he's bought like $70 of fast food.
Like $1987, $70.
And he gets his fucking big foot in the car.
And the movie is over.
But this little shit boy is like,
but I wanted to kill it.
Like, he's just, like, crying?
What about the Carson appearance?
No.
Fucking E.T. was there for at least a week before the kids start crying.
It's been a day with this smelly piece of shit.
And that's the weird.
That is also the weirdest part of this movie.
The kid kind of doesn't matter.
It is not, like, in the E.T. mold of, like, you know,
the little boy bonds with an extraterrestrial or whatever.
Maconby.
The little boy bonds with a gross extraterrestrial.
Yeah.
This is a four-year-old man befriends a Bigfoot.
Yeah.
It's a grown adult.
It's so bizarre because usually the kid
would name it, but it's him
naming it to make it harder on the family to let
go of this fucking thing. Big mistake.
And Harry, what a hack name
for this thing.
It's just for the alliteration.
I think that's it, yeah.
And we don't even see his purple crayon.
As a matter of fact, no one
saw that purple crayon. So you are
admitting it's small. That's good.
Progress.
I don't, that would be very, I would love to, if it's small, I would love to see that.
That'd be like, you know, because you think big foot, big feet, big, you know.
Well, you've got to get the, I'm too sexy montage where they're clipping the hair around his
makes of, that reveals what's going on down there.
Just leave a tasteful landing strip.
All the way up my stomach.
Oh, yeah, to the navel, to the big foot navel, absolutely.
But Harry escapes is the idea.
Yeah, he's like, this food is disgusting.
They find out he's pescatarian, by the way.
Yeah.
He's sort of like poo-poo's a hair.
hamburger but goes to town on a fillet of fish.
Or, excuse me, a fish sandwich.
Right, because he views like all mammals
of having souls, but fish
no? Clearly not.
Fish, no souls, okay.
Dude, he's dropping fucking goldfish out the tank
into his mouth like me at a fucking peeling
eat shrimp station. Eric,
like, we are in Seattle
and you're not thinking about the Nirvana lyrics.
It's okay to eat fish. They don't got any
feelings. Oh, wow, okay. That's
another local delicacy.
Yeah.
But also, it's not even that
he doesn't even, you know, he doesn't
eat meat. He gives all these things
Christian burials.
Like, in the front.
I got to tell you.
Harry's just a weird guy that lives in the
woods. Yes, exactly.
Come on. It's kind
of a bummer because, yes, he buries all the
mounted things, you know, Lithgow's got
or whatever. He should bury this
fucking cheeseburger.
Show me a Sasquatch
burying a cheeseburger,
ooh, that's a cool image.
Saying like,
dear Lord in Heaven.
Heavenly Father,
we gather.
Oh, he's so religious.
Amen.
I do like the idea of him being a mountain man,
then you don't see him,
but then all of a sudden Harry
is, like, at every Grateful Dead concert.
He's just doing the thing.
Dude, he's twirling, man.
You've got to twirl when you're out there, dude.
I mean, if you ever been to a gym, Magnolia.
There's always a guy that looks like Harry had a jam band show, you know?
Oh, absolutely.
At least five, maybe.
They're playing hacky sack.
So he breaks into a neighbor's house, much like Michael Myers looking for a butcher knife,
which is where I was hoping this would go.
Yes.
Instead, we have a gag of, like, a lady with a fucking pistol in the drawer.
Everybody is packing in Seattle, dude.
I would thank you for not bringing your guns to the show.
Thank you so much.
That's all right. Don't kill us.
But if this was like a Sasquatch horror movie, like she comes into the kitchen,
she sees his, like, toe and thinks it's a mouse.
But then, like, this woman would be found torn asunder.
Yes.
And is reported on by the local news the following morning.
He's got to defend himself.
Why can't he kill in self-defense?
True.
Kill this woman.
She's got a gun on him, dude.
Right?
Like, it's him or her.
Dude, it would be great if, like, he's going around killing people,
but he's also doing the Christian burial every.
time. It's like, these shallow
graves are popping up all over the city of
Seattle. Hands are out
of every grave. Like, just a hand out
every time.
But so this is the morning show that we're watching when
Jimmy or Jerry Seville.
It's Jerry. So, you thought maybe he
ran out of kids in Europe and he
decided to fly over here? Yes, Eric.
Set his sights on Seattle, Washington.
Do you hear it all about your dicks?
That's it. That's what he was waiting for.
Yeah, there it is. Whoever said,
That's what he was looking for.
It is kind of funny, though, because in this scene, like Jerry
or whatever, it's like, oh, man, there's a big
foot siding, and the guy's like, oh, shit, I finish
take off work again. And his wife's like, no, no,
go to work. No, we need the sporting goods store money.
You have to go into work today.
You got to get the fuck out of this house or I'm going to kill you.
No, my new job is watching my house be destroyed.
We're going to make millions off of this.
I don't understand what this show is, though, he's watching
because the guy has like a blow-hard, like, late-night TV persona.
Yeah.
But it's like 9 o'clock in the morning.
I'd never seen anything like this.
Well, that's when you start drinking in the morning and get, like, wasted by 9 a.m.
And that's the kind of job this guy has right now.
He's just there with the coffee.
Like, hey, it's a big...
Oh, yeah.
Hey.
Underrated time to drink, by the way.
Oh, yeah.
I will say.
Before noon, totally.
Absolutely.
Because, you know, it's like more of a special thing that no one else is doing it.
It's just me.
Yes, every morning I wake up and I have.
brunch.
I love having brunch.
It's just, it's a little colder in the morning, a little whiskey
you'll take care of that. Absolutely.
But a pep in my step.
Exactly. And you just want to go right back to bed.
It's beautiful. Warms you right up, I don't even have to turn the heat
on in the car. Exactly.
It's just smart. Thank you.
All right, thank you. It saves money.
I was spending most of today imagining
the characters of singles, like talking
about the hairy incident.
They were like,
They were shooting everybody.
There was guns everywhere.
There was guys just dressed up as Rambo
trying to fucking kill a Bigfoot
in the middle of the city.
There's a militia on the streets
at the end of this.
We're like, what the fuck happened?
People caught Bigfoot mania, dude.
That's what happened.
We do meet Emmett Walsh
running the Sporting Good store.
There's this moment where he's like,
hey, do you still draw or whatever the fuck that is?
All that dumb shit
I chastised you for your whole life
is a little boy.
Are you still a pussy?
Oh, that's good. That's good.
Yeah, draw me or draw me one?
You wear a suit and tie to work in an outdoor store
for you're kind of a fucking wimp.
And it's great because, yes, I do, Dad.
Yes, I do.
Love me, love me, love me.
No, no, no, no.
Just draw this and get no money for it.
No extra money.
Why'd you draw me a big, fucking big foot
with like fangs and stuff and blood and all that shit?
And drool.
A lot of drool.
And then people
won't come to my store for some reason.
And he's ripping a penis off like a Night of the Demon.
Oh, my favorite movie, Night of the Demon,
we got on VHS.
I showed it to you every day growing up.
D.V.A. is like, oh, maybe we can become
like the Bigfoot headquarters?
And he goes, B.H.Q.
Like from an opportunistic salesman kind of.
Yeah.
And it works. I mean, to be honest.
People just funnel into this fucking place.
We should say, David Sushet, by the way,
So he finds the license plate in the field there where they find the Bigfoot.
He goes to the DMV and he's like, oh, excuse me, my friend was driving away,
and I love my friend, and he has this license plate number.
Can you give me their home address?
I'm like, you just killed a woman if you get, you know what I mean?
And then he just like slips her 10 bucks.
I'm like, lady, you're going to jail.
Yes.
Can I do this all the time?
Oh, God, I can't.
You have put so much work off my back.
Oh, my God.
And then he does, this is the only time he does it, which is bizarre.
He dresses up in a disguise as the U.S. Forest Service and goes to their house.
He's like, oh, yes, I am called, they call me Richards.
Shit, me, Richard.
Ah, shit.
My name is Richard Smith.
Born on Plymouth Rock itself.
He smells like shit in here.
Do you have a big foot?
Just by any chance?
But it's also a weird thing where he's like.
like, we got report of an injured animal
and I'm looking for it so we can give it
care. That's not what a park ranger
does. No. It's a fucking dog catcher
at best. What are you talking about? They put him down,
right? They control that population.
Dude, between the eyes.
And he also goes to
the bullet store to get all these big ass
bullets. Wow, there's a lot of fucking bullets.
Oh, this is where he's like,
oh, like, whatever the fucking round
is, he's like, oh, I need like
whatever caliber. And Lithgow's
like, that's the biggest caliber we said.
And then this is red flag shit right here.
He opens this box of fucking rounds
and he's like, do you have any more?
And Lithgow's like, there's 20 rounds in that box.
What could you possibly need more than 20 for?
Call the fucking cops, dude.
No, oh, no.
M.M. at Walsh is like right behind him, like,
Of course we do.
We'll find him for you.
Shut the fuck up.
It's called up selling.
Here it comes.
Who gives a shit what he's going to fucking use it for?
As long as he buys it.
Would you like to supersize your bullets
or get the value meal for us?
You don't know.
There might be elephants in the forest.
You don't know.
You buy a full case of rounds.
We'll give you a bazooker for fucking free.
Could I interest you with a ski mask,
get a big fucking knife?
There's some lie, too, for the aftermath.
There's some gloves and some rope.
Totally grottis.
We want to see you back in here again.
A little pro tip, you want a cast an iron tub
to dissolve that body.
We do have, we have white barrels if you need them.
We have, we got a guy.
But yeah, he is, now Lithgow is charged with drawing his bat,
he starts saying best friend at this point.
No.
Holy shit.
How pathetic is that?
A 40-year-old man referring to a forest creature he hit with his car as his best friend.
I mean, it kind of makes sense though, doesn't it?
Because this guy would be so annoying to you.
This guy, he doesn't have a best friend.
He doesn't have any friends.
I guess that's true.
If you only have this one friend, the Sasquatch, he is by default your best friend.
There's two guys at work, and they just fucking shit on him.
They hate him.
They hate his kids.
Fuck you.
And he's trying to make this big scary, but he's like, I just can't do it, man.
Why not?
I paid you nothing.
Zero dollars to make a great drawing.
So he draws the sympathetic version, you know.
He's like, oh, it's a big fucking gerbil, you pussy.
Why'd you draw that?
I should have hired a real artist.
You're garbage, son.
Oh, dude, that sucks.
I should have hired a real artist.
Oh, no.
And that is the last fucking line from M.M. at Walsh in this movie.
He does, Lithgow eventually goes and meets Don and meets you at this museum that he operates.
Oh, God.
This is, he's something Dr. Wrightwood, I believe.
is the name here. He's pulling
this Obi-Wan Kenobi shit on this guy
though. For what? Lithgow goes in
he's like, I'm looking for Dr. Rightwood and like
clearly Donamichi is this dude, right?
And he's like, oh yes, well
he's at the doctor right now. What can
I help you with? I'd be like, well, you're clearly
him. That's a name I haven't heard in a long
time.
Oh, Wrightwood, you say.
Oh.
I fought with Wrightwood in the Clone Wars.
Oh, your father's more Bigfoot now than man.
I wonder if he's talking about Old Don out there in the forest.
Old Don Wrightwood.
You stay away from that crazy wizard.
Like, you're just a fucking cuck.
You don't get to do...
I mean, that is the goal, right, to fucking one day just like...
Oh, yeah.
Someone comes looking for you, and they, like, refer to you by name,
and you're like, oh, well, I'm not here.
He's not here right now.
What can I...
You fucking do, I would love to Obi-Wan somebody.
You come out of your cave?
Yes.
All right.
Exactly, right out of my cave.
Well, I'd like to do that for once
that's done a bill collector, that's for sure.
Time to do it.
Oh, him, he's dead.
That's what my father told this comic book shop
I got in some hot soup with.
I have not heard this before.
Oh, really?
No.
He told that his son is dead.
Yeah, you got killed by Bigfoot.
Yeah.
So it's a small good thing, but he's lying.
Yes.
What happened was, like in high school,
like in late high school,
I found a cool comic shop
that would put aside single issues for you.
And much like, you know, any kind of disease,
you know, any kind of addiction,
I got way too into it.
I'd subscribed to so many single issues.
And then I went off to college
and forgot about all of it.
And, like, for weeks and, like, months,
this dude was calling.
And finally, like, he called,
and my father was like,
that guy's dead
and the motherfucker
never called again and I guess he just had to
like sell off those single issues that were
at this point months old
so yeah my father told the salesman
I was dead. Excellent.
That's awesome.
Wishful thinking.
No yeah, right in the head.
Yeah.
So we got a lot of like
hairy walking around.
He's doing a lot of, like, peeping right here.
He sees a fella using a pooper scooper here.
This is the first time he speaks English, kind of.
He goes, yuck.
Yeah.
And this is how you see that he is actually human.
He's a peeping top.
Yes.
One of the biggest human traits.
Yeah, Harry in the hot tub, dude.
That's what this scene turns into.
It takes fucking 40 minutes.
It's this lady making chicken soup boiling this chicken alive.
And he's looking at it, and then there's over there.
there's a hot tub. He's looking at the hot tub. He looks at the chicken.
He looks at the hot tub. And there's no punchline.
Oh, there's a punchline there, Stephen. I'm sorry. There is a punchline.
Because two fat people are going into the jacuzzi.
And he's like, dead chicken, fat people.
Dead chicken? They're all the same.
It's all the same. It's more of a lunch line than a punchline.
Yeah. I like that.
Yes, that's good. I like that.
Yes, sir. I love that.
But he also, but there's...
You should be on Carson.
Now.
There's this guy who's like...
Dead for 20 years.
It gets broken up on this guy like,
hey, get away from that window.
You see an eight-foot dude
outside of a window.
I'm just calling the cops.
Keep away, friend.
Keep away.
An eight-foot-tall guy going
at your window?
You can't even close the blinds at that point.
You're going to get in trouble with him.
Well, cut to the police.
Oh, yeah.
No, a peeper.
Sure, man.
Listen in.
Listen in.
You won't believe this.
A guy who might kill you.
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Peeping time.
Well, just pipe this into my invisible typewriter, Mr. Jackass.
So now, I'm sorry, the story's getting Bigfoot crazy.
Yes.
No, Emma Walsh does he, he draws.
I was like, I took your little sissy drawing and I put some fangs on it.
Yeah, I think the bloodshot red eyes are pretty sharp, too.
It looks like a demon.
This is what he's like, that meant something to me.
means something to me. He's my best friend.
Oh, no, my boy wants
to fuck this drawing. You're an imaginary
creature. What are you talking about?
You don't have friends.
I've known this for years.
Back in high school, you didn't have friends.
Best friend, you work at my fucking outdoor store.
You got no friends.
When you were in high school and I was 25.
He quits his job.
Great time to quit your job when your house is
literally in ruins.
Car two. Car and house.
just completely right.
All of your equity is destroyed.
It's like, now I'm gonna quit my job.
He kind of becomes a little bit of a sensation here
because this is when he finds out
like a dude is talking to the media
about a Bigfoot sighting
and he runs to where it was
and just dresses this guy down about the,
you're telling a tall tale about my best friend!
This would be on YouTube like,
man destroys dude about Bigfoot facts.
Total destruction.
It's like all those like a fake Chris Hansen video
where, like, he got this pedophile to come to his thing,
and we got him, and the guy's like,
eh.
I want a video of John Lithgow sitting at a table
and all these teens debate him one at a time about Bigfoot.
Yeah.
That'd be great.
That's too much woke.
And the media goes nuts for it.
It's got to be a slow week in this here town, I guess.
I don't know what else to tell you,
because, yeah, like, multiple news agencies
taking on this Bigfoot story.
And he stops, my name is George Hent.
George Henn, and they're like, who is the name's George Henn?
George Hatt?
Yeah, they go with it on the news.
They're like, George Henn said it.
What is the point of him not saying his full name?
I don't know.
Who gives a shit?
Because then people will be like, maybe this guy knows Bigfoot.
Let's go to his house and kill him.
Yeah, they go outside his house
and just looking in all the time.
It's like the insider.
You've got to get somebody to sneak you out.
Dude, it would be awesome
if John Lithgow goes out to the mailbox
in one scene and turns the thing down
and Jacques's fucking bullet is just right in the mailbox?
He's just standing across.
I recognize that round.
Oh, no!
I'm going to kill you a friend.
So this news story makes it on the nightly news or whatever
and then this is where Bigfoot or Harry, I guess,
is walking by, like it's Robocop's Detroit,
this old TV story.
with the fucking, like, cage over the windows,
but, like, these beautiful TV displays
that we don't have anymore.
Who is in a fight?
Bigfoot or a Robocop?
Oh, shit.
Robocop.
Yeah, that's where.
Robocop is definitely killing him.
Yeah, well, with the gun hand and everything.
You just put Harry's head under one of those meckfuts.
Oh, yeah, dude.
Nice try, creep. I have no dick to rip off.
Huh?
But I will shoot you in yours.
He does.
That's his favorite move, too.
He loves shooting dicks off.
Oh, Robocop?
Yeah.
Loves it.
A fan.
That dude's never met a dick
he didn't want to shoot off.
That's true.
And across the way,
there is,
and this is going to be something
I got to throw to Steve here,
there is a place called
the barefoot bar.
Uh-huh.
Which...
That's right.
First of all...
What?
Is that like the policy?
Yeah, do you just get to go in there
without any shoes or socks on?
After you guys get your bag of dicks,
you go to the barefoot bar
and take your shoes up?
Is this a real thing?
Exist. It did? Barefoot bar?
Free tozies.
It's in the background of this movie.
Shirt?
Shoes, comma, no service.
There we go. There, on
IMDB, the best place for all
known information.
The best news source I have
is, one of the trivia
items is
aside from the beginning scene
and the climactic chase scene,
Melinda Dillon is barefoot
this entire movie.
And that is like the bat signal for creeps.
Like, it is just like, it is there like, you know what we're talking about.
Keep on looking, my friends.
Keep on looking.
The souls are there.
So we're watching the movie earlier today.
Trying to see if she's barefoot, but she's not.
She's not.
She's barely barefoot in the movie.
Come on, folks.
Dude, like, that's why we picked this, because we saw that trivia.
You're like, well, yeah, barefoot.
That's the one.
There it is.
You, sir, are no Tarantino.
That Harry of the Hedders is a fucking rip-off band.
It really doesn't deliver in the barefoot department,
but I will say just a little side quest right now.
Uh-huh.
I have seen John Lithgow's naked ass in person.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
That's right.
That's right.
Not a joke.
You had him over to the house?
Not a joke.
No, he was on a Broadway play where he did nudity.
Ooh.
And pretty good.
All right.
Pretty fucking good.
It's all that low-sodium progressive soup, dude.
Yeah, dude, I bought a few cans on my way home.
So was this, what were you seeing?
Was this a stage adaptation of Raisin Cain?
No, no, no.
It was, uh...
Oh, God.
I would love that, though.
Someone needs to get on that.
Make that a musical, that'd be fun.
Oh, yeah.
You got to play twins.
No, he was just...
He played, like, a journalist who took a lover,
and apparently took a bath.
No, no, he was nude in bed.
Oh.
The best scenario for your Lithgow.
Did you see...
Do you see the testes?
hanging or not so much? I did not really know
for all I know he had a cup there with the thing is like
the scene ends and he gets out of the bed and he's
scurring off stage with his with his
flapping butt cheeks and it was awesome. Oh wow
I was totally worth the plus. Did you have your little
opera glasses out like is there fucking
peen here? Can I see he got a little
peen? A little closer to the peen?
Zero peen you're saying
I was trying they told me put my phone
away, no video
well that's
you know backstage
he was like I need a bowl of ice
Not for what you think.
I just got to put my nuts in it.
Make sure they don't dangle.
I just need them compact.
Get back there, boys.
Get up there.
The Threatrak nuts.
Nobody wants you out here.
Yeah, he smacks them.
He smacks those nuts.
Yeah, you got to smack those nuts, dude.
Yeah.
The spotlight's not for you.
But, no, yeah, Broadway shows recommend.
Yeah.
Check them out.
He shows.
He, uh, he, uh,
So basically this is like, yeah, we're watching.
Harry sees the TV broadcast, yeah.
He starts throwing, because he, this fucking dumb thing.
He starts thinking that, like, Lithgow's in the television,
so he's trying to take it with him, and it unplugs.
So then he smashes more TVs to get another one than that unplugs.
And finally a bunch of cops are like, hey, that doesn't look right.
And then he throws a TV at a cop, my fantasy.
It's the, it's the second time.
It's the second time in the movie that he's,
speaks English, he's hurling the TV, and he goes,
Hey, Graham!
Yep.
Yeah, TV tossing.
Yes. Hell yeah.
God damn it.
Hell yeah.
This is where, like, the big
fucking street thing happens, where, like,
there's militias all over the place.
They're coming down from the hills around here, probably.
Yeah, they'll all have, like, Rambo. The joke
is they'll kind of have Rambo headbands,
because they're, like, yuppie, scum kind of
folks.
A real weekend warrior kind of thing.
Yeah, I think that's the idea.
Hunt the Bigfoot.
Do you guys have that here?
Like one day a year, kind of like Wacking Day on the Simpsons?
Like everybody's...
Well, like, just...
Like, nobody actually believes it, but it's kind of more like a just-in-case thing.
Like, all right, everybody patrol the streets.
In case all those kooks were right, and Bigfoot's real,
Wacking Day in Seattle.
Blowfoot Day.
Blowfoot.
Everyone...
It's...
It's...
It's...
It's...
Oh.
Everyone six, four, and above just stays home
that, I'm not going to...
No, couldn't catch me.
Chief, that was the captain of the high school basketball team.
Ah, geez.
He was turning into a monster.
And Lithgow just, like, has the wherewithal
to know that Harry's downtown somewhere,
and he starts doing this horseshit, like, yowl.
I'm like, what?
This is what you know in his head.
He's like, John, you're getting a new garage with this one.
Oh!
into a camera.
I can't believe he's doing that running around
and no one shoots at him.
Yes.
I think I heard it.
Fire now.
Yeah.
Is Tim Allen here?
I'll tell you what, though.
I'll tell you what.
And you know, this house now
can use some home improvement.
What else is there?
I was waiting for it.
Well, they're for richer or poorer now.
Yes.
I don't know.
Yeah, when they get all the merch out for Harry and the Hendersons, it's a real toy story.
They want to take this thing back.
Jungle to jungle, you know, get this thing out of it.
Forest to forest now.
Yeah, it's forest to forest.
Yeah, he's a big bully, right?
Is he a big bully or no?
That's what I think so.
No, he's not.
Fuck!
Fuck!
That's Rick Moranis.
Get the fuck out.
Tom Arnold.
No, what is the movie where he fights putty?
Yeah, that's something.
That's what you're thinking.
Joe somebody.
Joe somebody.
He's got the big boxing gloves on.
What a douchebag.
If this was in Michigan,
this would have fucking killed.
But...
No, you wouldn't.
And so everyone's running around.
And, yes,
including Jacques Lefleur, I believe.
This turns into a dumpster match,
like, where...
My God!
Harry's suplexes David Suchet
Piro himself into a dumpster.
There's a gun in the cage.
There's a gun in the cage.
My God, a handgun's in there.
Like, this...
I'm sorry.
I know this is a family film.
This guy needs to get at least shot in the butt.
What a little butt shot, be funny.
I love the moment in here where Harry finds the gun
is, like, pointing it in his own face.
And David Choucette is, like, leaning forward,
like, let me pull the trigger.
Let me pull that trigger.
It's a moment of tension that I dare say
is slightly hitchcockian.
Yeah.
Because it's like, he's got the fucking gun,
like, and then you see the hand coming into frame.
Going to pull the trigger, get it.
And at this point, John Lithgow, again,
House and Shambles, quits his job.
I'm going to steal a garbage trunk.
Your life is on fucking fire, dude, for this Bigfoot.
I'm going to wager all so you can't just, like,
hop behind the wheel of a dump truck and know what you're doing.
He immediately fucks it up.
He keeps on stalling out the whole time.
I guess that's true.
He doesn't know what he's doing.
And the dumpster goes flying.
He saves Harry accidentally.
And they both get into their car.
David Sushet is arrested
and now it's like this weird
CIA drama he's calling
his friends like Jerome you have to get me out of here
I don't care what strings you have to pull up
like who the fuck is Jerome
dude we are 90 minutes into this movie you can't
just pull a Jerome out of thin air
yeah come on I need you to start talking about an agency
doesn't have to be the central intelligence it can be
any agency you can just call it the agency
yes that happens but it's just like
oh monster agency
though. And that's what it turns into?
I'd be into that. And then that's the movie series?
That'd be a great cancel TV show.
Oh, fuck, yeah.
Dude, those seven episodes they produced.
And, but he's like, Jerome, you have to get me out of
he shows up. He's like, I can only do what I can do, but I'll have to pull some strings
with the judge. I'm like, the fuck movie am I watching?
It's like he's getting a mobster out of jail.
It's more like the insider. It's true.
But meanwhile, Harry is back with the Henderson's. We get a fun
Adam's family bit here
where they're washing him.
Oh, right.
We should all show nuts.
Mention earlier in the film
they're watching, what, Bedtime for Bonzo?
Yes.
The Ronald Reagan ape movie.
Which is essentially
the same movie as this, but with
a chimp.
Oh, mommy, we're living with a monkey.
He gets, like, yogurt
thrown on his face in that movie.
It's pretty great.
Did, like, Reagan at the White House
got a check for, like, $100?
You know what I mean?
A hundred dollars, dude.
That is wishful thinking.
as far as royalties are concerned.
I mean, bettime for Bonzo, though, the monkey's
fucking adorable. If Harry's
disgusting, that monkey's adorable.
And Reagan's disgusting, but that monkey's adorable.
It's true.
But in this sequence,
when they, after, you know, before they do,
the Adams family, they bathe him in the neighbor's pool.
Oh, yes.
And then it's just, you could tell that he was shitting in there.
Well, because Lady Kazan's like,
oh, there's all this hair in my pool.
I was like, that's the least of your problems.
You can't use chemicals to treat this water.
You've got to drain the whole fucking thing.
This is a week-long problem.
Yeah, you gotta start over.
I mean, maybe, we don't see him shit in this movie.
Maybe he's constipated from all the milk and what have you.
Oh, yeah, he's not used to that.
That's why he's running around howling.
I got shit.
Kick me in the stomach, please.
It feels sharp coming out.
Oh, good Lord.
Did I swallow a knife?
He might have, actually.
He's a monster.
Who the fuck knows what he's eating?
But this Donabichi calls, comes out of the darkness,
and he's like, actually, I was Dr. So.
Who could ever give a shit?
I called it.
I called it.
Didn't I call it?
I told you.
And he wants to come.
He's like, I have to come to your house.
I have to tell you a story about how bad it is to be obsessed
with being Bigfoot, I guess.
I was on the USS Indianapolis.
and a bunch of Bigfoot
started swimming around us.
They took six an hour.
All my boys.
Dad, it was so weird
when that old guy came over for dinner
and he used the Jaws monologue
to talk about Bigfoot.
They're all dressed up
like they're meeting the president, by the way.
Some fucking weird old hillbillies
coming to your house.
He's Bigfoot royalty, man.
This dude, he used to be a scientist.
Okay.
Big used to, by the way.
I realized.
also watching it, that the story he tells,
it's kind of like how Jake Gyllenhaal's character
ruins his life in Zodiac.
Yes, yeah.
Because it's just like, and I got so
obsessed eventually, well, my family
went away, and all my friends
left me. So at the end of the movie,
Don Amici just looks at fucking
Harry working at a hardware store
just to know.
Yep. Yeah, he just, he goes in.
Can I help you with something?
But this, Donamichi sees
this thing, and like, his life is made.
so much so that he insists on sleeping over
dude this guy has a fucking sleeping bag in his car
this is this is dera
huge divorced energy by the way
that's the only thing he doesn't mention in the monologue
is the D word
you know it happens there's multiple I think
the Bigfoot is setting up his branches
in the house to sleep on and Donamiche is like
I'm gonna curl up with him
what is happening there
what the fuck are you doing
Did the sister tell them it was the lay of her life?
What the fuck?
And I've got to give it a try.
I just got to.
Give that thing a wide berth.
What if it is a night terror?
You're fucking dead.
Exactly.
You're also going to sleep with a jet engine
snoring in your ear.
Well, see, and that's another one of the bad jokes
is, like, that scene ends,
and we cut to, like, the middle of the night,
and it's, like, the exterior of the house,
and you just hear snoring,
and then we don't cut in to see who's being bothered
by this. That's how shit works.
That's how you fucking make movies. That's visual
storytelling. This is a sloppy
movie, you guys. It's sloppiest.
Andrew, but it's so cute.
The little boy is
sleeping with the huge monster.
And a complete stranger.
But you don't see, you
don't see Donamichi in that shot
so when it cuts back, it just looks like Donamichi
morphed into the little boy.
No. It's like a cocoon
type of thing, you know?
That's right. I'm a big foot, Benjamin
button.
Harry is not
Totoro.
You cannot sleep
on him.
He smells like shit
and he can't shit.
You can't sleep
with Bigfoot,
okay?
Don't do it.
You're going to
find it one day.
You live out of here.
Don't sleep with it.
You're going to die.
It's going to
dream of like a fish
or something and kill you.
Totally.
So Dona Machen's like,
I know the perfect place
to put Bigfoot
that no one will ever find him.
It's literally off the fucking highway.
I mean, like, it is...
You can see paved roads.
The place you found him, more or less.
People are you talking, hey, Bigfoot, how's it going?
Like, he needs to be, like, by the way,
on top of being a crazy Bigfoot kook and a former scientist,
I also own all this private land.
And that's where he can go,
and that's how these stupid stories end all the time.
But this is, like, David Suchet is freed by Jerome.
Oh, Jerome.
Oh, classic character.
Classic character, Jerome.
And he's like, Jerome, you've fucked me again.
And he goes to the house.
He's about to shoot Bigfoot, but, you know, he gets a, almost kills Lady Kazan.
Yep, I would have loved that.
And that would have been justified, too, though, because she's coming at him with an electric knife.
Yeah, it's true.
Because she thinks he, like, tore up her flowers or whatever.
She's ready to fucking castrate this dude right on the stairs.
The flowers were torn up because Bigfoot tried to score with the daughter.
Oh right
They were the very same flowers
He didn't eat them
It was a gift
He was collecting them
But you know what
It's good we see that scene
Because we get to have a racist joke
Which everybody wanted to have
Of course
All right
The gardener is an Asian fellow
She's calling him Kim Chi
Good God in heaven
My name is Kim Lee
That one's for all the uncles out there
Get ready to slap them knees
And now we get a chase sequence
Donamichi stabs the
tires of David Shoucette's murder
wagon. Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah, he's got the high-tension wagon.
Like, it's just a huge thing
when it's the big guy, not when it's
the lady, the big guy.
The guy with the corpse blowjob.
Yeah, that one.
Yeah, the corpse blowjob.
I think he's just invented a new thing for American sign language,
the corpse blowjohn.
That is a
not great start to that movie.
No.
No, it is not.
Because you're like, oh, cool.
Like, this guy's catching head in this truck.
Pretty sweet start to this movie.
And then, oh, it's a decapitated head.
And this is high tension?
High tension.
High tension.
French extreme horror, dude.
Don't look into it.
All right.
I'm going to say, he's downloading it tonight.
Nah, there's a couple of good things in there.
So David Shussett steals their car.
Yes, there's a little fun bit on the highway where Harry can mimic a police siren.
When did he turn into Michael Winslow from Police Academy?
because it's not like a roaring sound
that could also be a siren.
It's like the puppet's mouth is open
and a siren sound is playing.
But even worse, he sticks his head out
and he's like, brer, or whatever.
And everyone starts parting the way
and like, wow, they think we're a police car.
No, they see fucking Bigfoot in your car.
Totally.
They're like, get that, get away from it.
Jesus Christ, what is that?
Is God real?
It's a big no right there.
The answer is no.
Clearly he's a demon from hell.
Yeah, of course.
Come on.
I serve Lucifer.
Like, no way.
Oh, wow, they think we're a police car.
No, no.
Yeah, we drive three inches off the highway
and we're like, all right, this is it, Harry.
Like, they have one shot where it's like, look,
he's totally hidden there.
I was like, is that the fucking McDonald's golden arches?
I can see it.
Yeah, this is the secret spot.
Anyway, go ahead.
This is the iconic scene.
because we're trying to say goodbye
to Harry. Leave us alone. We don't want you anymore.
And listen, you want to yell at this thing
till you're blue in the face, fine.
Slapping it is another story.
Wow. And he gives them
fucking five across the eyes and I was like,
you're pushing your luck with cow.
He would catch
your head and turn it to jelly.
Well, that's
speaking of the jaw stuff, I think
you should have at least one death where it's like
the lady from the beginning and it's just like
you see like hair
off of the thing, you're like, oh, oh, yeah, he tried to take his fish.
There was a potted plant he was going to eat, and they took it.
This was no boating accident.
So he wanders off, and then they realize, like, again, because they're just right off the highway,
the David Sushet has followed them, we're doing fake Big Feet tracks.
That's kind of huge.
We're doing the end of the Shining, basically.
They trick him with the tracks.
To throw the killer off the trail, you know, the trail.
Right.
We all have big feet molds from Don Amici's garbage store.
And now there's all these tracks, and Davis says,
oh, it must be a herd of them.
Which he ends up being right later on anyway.
But here's the opportunity, right?
You're out in the woods, far enough, I guess, off the road.
You know this dude's not going to stop.
You've got to put this guy down now.
That's what it becomes.
He might be hunting Bigfoot, you've got to hunt Poirot.
That's what you've got to do.
You've got so much practice at shallow graves now.
Yes.
It's the perfect place to do.
in the forest.
Yeah, but what if Jerome gets involved?
That's true.
That's true.
A shadowy figure that is Jerome.
Jerome, what's going on?
I'm in Saudi Arabia. Why?
Why you took your little fucking
Jack Russell Terrier on a high-speed
chase? No clue.
So it can be hilariously
thrown by this hunter
and Bigfoot, like Game
7 of the World Series just fucking
one-hands this thing.
safely rescuing this dog.
But, like, David Sushet is, like, I don't know,
five foot seven and, like, kind of fat,
and he throws a perfect spiral with this thing.
I love this.
If you put this on ESPN, I'd be watching dog tossing.
Absolutely.
Dog ball?
Yeah.
Oh, dog ball, dude.
There it is.
That's even better, because there's a guy with a bat on the other end.
Like, can the dog bite the guy with the bat in time before it's hit?
So in baseball, they throw spirals?
you're saying?
We'll try it out.
Try out, throwing a spiral with a base.
New rules for dogball.
And again, like, in a movie where, like, I don't know,
like, if Harry catches a dog, big hero moment,
he needs to either break the dude's gun,
break the dude's neck, you know what I mean, something.
Well, he does, you miss that part where,
because the dude draws the rifle and then he puts it down,
but then Harry notices he's got something like down here,
like another piece that the dude takes out,
Harry steps on it and goes,
no, this is the weapon of the enemy.
I was like, wow, it was pretty articulate
for a fucking hill monster.
Where's Robin?
And they're just kind of going back and forth
and like, what makes him
realize that he's more man than beast?
Oh, he gets kicked in the nuts.
Oh, right? Harry does,
dude, the idea, kicking Bigfoot in the nuts?
Are you kidding me?
That's even ballsyer than the slap.
I just love that we get,
my nuts!
From Bigfoot.
Yes.
And you know that it's actually,
like this is how you know
like he's more human than not.
Because they get the delay perfect.
Yes.
You get a fucking crack to the balls
and you think every single time
you think,
whew, I made it out of that unscathed.
And then exactly like six and a half seconds later,
you wish you were dead.
Oh, there it is.
There it is in the kidneys.
Oh, boy.
Oh, boy.
And Harry has that exact reaction.
There's a delay.
It's perfect.
He's more human than monster.
But in reality, he would turn
this man into Baba Ginoosh.
Yes.
Oh, hell yeah.
This man would be able to fit into a container
That's great
But then I think like Lithgow
This is where like Lithgow starts like
Coming after Poirot here
And Harry's got to like break it up
Because Lithgow is smashing the back of this dude's head
On the windshield of the car
He literally says you want to kill him
I'm gonna kill you
And I'm like
Again you have a family
This is just Bigfoot dude let it go
Stevens is friends with Brian De Palma
but this is not a Brian De Palma movie
I know they made the carrier reference but still
I'm gonna strangle you in a bathroom you son of a bitch
look at all these cool fireworks
it's just fucking John Lithgow listening to a tape
No it's a good it's a good growl
It's a really good growl
It's a really good one
I love you Harry
But yes Harry pulls him a
part, and David's shit finally realizes, oh, my God, it's a person.
Because it gets felt up by Bigfoot.
He's like, oh, it's actually nice, right?
He's, like, feeling his head. And Davis-Resat's head looks very nice to caress.
Very egg-shaped.
Yeah, like you're petting a fuzzy egg.
And then he thinks he's going to get his arms broken off of his body, but it turns out
to be a handshake.
Oh, that's right.
And he fucking talks at one point.
I think he says, like, okay, or like, whatever it is.
And then this dude goes, mom, dude, they have length.
I mean, kind of, it's...
You kind of have to suss it out.
Dude, and then you have Don Amici so fucking proud of this moment.
He's like, Jacques, meet Harry.
Harry Henderson.
You're like, shut your mouth.
Giving this thing the fucking family name?
Are you kidding me?
Do I have to declare him on my taxes?
Oh, no!
And he says goodbye to everybody, the little kid.
Melinda Dillon
who is not barefoot
You've got shoes off
Fucking tease
Wearing shoes
To chase someone through
Forest
They probably destroyed the cut
With all the good feet shots
Release the feet cut
I want it
Yeah so we're all happy now
Don Amici has that line
With Davis you said about like
Well what's next or whatever
Jocko and he's like
Well there's always
The Loch Ness monster
We're going to murder the lockness monster
Let's go try to kill that fucker next
I guess.
I'm going to drown him.
Unless it touches me fondly and says okay,
that thing's fucking dead.
Well, I suppose we go to Transylvania
and see if we can track down Dracula.
Sick.
Sick.
I would like that.
Do you have any high velocity stakes
that I could shoot at it?
This little guy could have been
like an extra character and played.
Sure.
Why not?
But so like, you know, he's like,
again, because it's the movie
about a 40-year-old man
bonding with a big foot. He's the last one
to say goodbye to him. Take care
of yourself, Harry. You're my
best friend. It's going to be very lonely
without you around. And then the goddamn
thing leaves. And then you see
there were a bunch of other ones hiding out.
And thankfully, something of who he's wondered
about, the existence of little feet.
Oh, yes. And there is a little
foot. There's a little one there. There's a little feet
and he's disgusting looking. Awful.
Two like full-grown ones and then this little
one. And all I can think about was like you watch
I don't know, whoever he is to do, your brother, your fucking dad, or whatever,
go through the woods, be chased by this guy.
You didn't step in and help out, tear these people limb from limb?
Yes.
They're a pacifist people, Andrew.
The fucking Henderson's did more for this guy than that pack of big feet did for hairy, man.
You're so mighty, and then your dad is kidnapped for like a month.
Yeah.
And then his tormentors come back and beat him up in the woods.
Right in front of you.
Yeah.
Right in front of you.
They're throwing dogs at them?
While you're busy eating bushes, I guess.
So then we fade out.
Eating bushes, anyway.
Oh, boy.
Oh, good God.
We're not going back to the rose scene.
We're not doing the roast scene again.
Or whatever, that's good, too.
Slash, whatever.
Yeah.
No, the most confounding part of the movie,
which is a movie about a Bigfoot
that moves in with a suburban family,
the credits are all the fucking awesome.
animation shit from the Take On Me video?
Who thought that was a good idea?
While, like, and it'd be one thing if, like, you have a pop song that's even kind of,
but you have Joe Cocker going like, our love will be forever.
It sucks.
This song sucks.
Man, we're trapped in a music video.
What's behind these, what's behind this orange juice?
Oh no!
Yeah, Sergeant Man said, yeah, okay, you're in a music video.
Okay, let me write that down.
But, I mean, I guess this is like, because halfway through the movie,
you know, John Lickah loses his job, I guess this is showing you that maybe he draws a book
about it or something.
Hey, sure.
Yeah, okay.
Whatever.
I think he just becomes a storyboard artist.
I think that's just what he's doing now.
He did a book that another piece of garbage to sell it Don Amici's.
But that is Harry and the Henderson, folks.
That's all she wrote.
Little thing at the tail end of the credits.
Yeah.
It says special thanks to Bigfoot, of course.
Yes.
Now, we got to get going here, but we want to thank you all for coming out.
It was very nice being here in your fine city again.
I hadn't been here in a number of years.
We've never played here before.
This was very cool.
Thank you so much for coming out.
Big thanks to everybody, work at the venue here.
You all have been fantastic.
Before we sign off, we want to check back in
with the place where Steve and the three of us here
get our news and the only source, the IMDB.
Of course.
Normally, great website, great website.
Efficient, just great.
It's great. Nothing but good opinions.
It's certainly a website.
Certainly comes with a WWW.
Now, we always get into a review,
but first I want to do something a little different.
because I don't know how many of you guys knew this,
but after this movie came out,
it spawned a television series
that lasted for three seasons.
Oh, wow.
There are 72 episodes
of Harry and the Henderson's.
All right?
So maybe, you know what?
Maybe we are getting better
because we get,
now this still happens,
but it's one season and it's over.
They cancel it immediately.
They have the decency to cancel it immediately.
Unless it's lethal weapon.
Jesus Christ.
That show had some problem.
forever. Now, I
took a look through. I
have vague recollections of watching this
as a kid, but I didn't remember any of it. Bruce Davidson
replaces Lithgow, which
is kind of perfect. And then
Kevin P. Hall, who plays
Harry in this movie, did Harry for a little
bit, and then other people got into it. But I was looking at
some of these plots, because I was like, what
could you be doing for three seasons
Harry and that Anderson? So I just wanted
to share some of the batshit insanity that came out of
the show really quickly. Like, season one,
episode nine, Roots,
and the herb.
Harry and a Native American medicine
man, it says, try to cure
George's knee.
But he is reckless.
I don't know if the he is the medicine
guy, if it's just poorly written.
The idea is reckless.
Right, yeah. Good call.
Or how about season one episode 13,
Harry Goes Ape, which is just a
plot point from this movie
with a little bit of a twist.
A football legend
visits the Henderson's house.
along with his wife who is wearing a fur.
Harry thinks that the fur is a dead person
and decides to bury it.
Just ripped right from the fucking movie.
Legend has to be in quotes, by the way.
It's Al Bundy.
It's Al Bundy is showing up.
Now here's a two-parter with two
amazing titles.
Season 3, episode 16,
Witness.
The Henderson's lives are put in danger
when Harry sees a philanthropist commit murder.
What?
Fuck, yes.
Is the philanthropist an Amish man?
I don't think so
Followed up by next week's
Season 3 episode 17
Harry the hostage
Now apparently something happens
at the end of the first episode
because it says murder witness Harry
becomes a target but Nancy
devises a daring plan to stop
the murderer
colon Jerome's revenge
Finally
Now here we go folks
this is how
the expression
running on fumes came about
ideas like this.
Season 3, episode 26,
Uncle Mac comes back.
George's great uncle
from Scotland
arrives to settle his affairs
and die,
which he does.
Nice.
But...
Does Harry eat him?
You wish.
But his ghost
has some unsettled business.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah, yeah.
I knew Bigfoot was working with the ghosts
I just imagine like a fucking writer's room
just filled with cigarettes
just so tired like I don't know
a fucking ghost I don't care
it's three in the morning and we're cancelled anyway
it will be a fucking ghost
it will at least it'll set up in the finale
when we have Frankenstein come in
that we just we preempt
that so here we go
we got one review to close out the evening
here subject line
Fun for All Family
Written by Mason
on the 30th of December 2013
Probably at 3 o'clock in the morning
I would imagine
Now I want you to just listen to how
This person really loves this movie
Right? Sure. Thinks very highly of it. Keep that in mind
I usually avoid family movies
I find them too sappy and not really funny
This one is different
Oh okay
I had a really nice time with it
From what I can remember, the movie was successful enough that it made a TV series.
Rick Baker rightfully won Oscar for makeup.
Oscar? I just read what they wrote.
It is just a, it is a copy-paste job, dude.
I got you.
I never thought I'd say it about a family movie, but the ending was all caps, awesome.
I regret that I haven't seen this one as a kid.
If I have kids in the future, I will make sure they would watch this great movie.
watch this great movie.
Now, remember, how they think of it, very highly.
Sure.
I give it two out of ten stars.
We've been We Hate Movies from New York City, Seattle.
Thank you.
Thanks so much for coming out.
You've been great.
You're at home safe.
We'll see you next time.
