Hello Katie. Hi Alan. How are you? It's spooky season. Oh, it is the spookiest of seasons. It's fantastic. The spookiest of seasons. It's fantastic. Spookiest of seasons. This movie fucking scared me.

Scare dragon. I chased it. I was scared. I'm so excited. Yeah. Because this movie also scared me even the second time when I yelled out loud Jesus Christ at one scene. Yes, there are several scenes at which

I think you could have yelled that, but I was like, I'm thirsty and I don't wanna get water because it's dark in the hallway. This movie just sort of re-edified my fear of the dark that I know at 50 I should not have, but there's a reason I have a lot of flashlights in my life. I thought you were just a flashlight enthusiast.

You're up there on our flashlight. I'd be lying if I said I wasn't. I've heard great things about our flashlight from someone who is not you, so. I have to tell you that a very fun experience I had recently was introducing my cousin Vicky to Reddit. She didn't know really what it was. God, I love Vicky.

I know. And so I was just going through and subscribing Vicky to things I thought Vicky would like. It was just a weird glimpse of like, what does Vicky like? And if you'd like to hear Vicky, you can go back and listen to our New Year's episode from this past turn of the year, A Castle for Christmas. I was recently, got to spend some time with Vicky

at Rob's birthday party, where the daddy daughter birthday, or daddy daughter dance photo. I think that's rude. And funny. And I was just reminded of how much I enjoy spending time with her. She's a fucking treat. She's a delight. Yeah.

Yeah, she's the best of us, of all of us. She's number one. Also on Reddit, for the Werewolf Ambulance Reddit, someone posted that there is a new Lindsay Lohan Christmas food be coming out this year, so. Buckles up, buckles. I really enjoyed the last one. It was definitely a film. It was more of a film than most of them that we've done.

Yeah, for sure, for sure. More of a film than Castle for Christmas, for sure for sure how dare you I wanted how dare you dead? What are we doing this week though, we're doing a movie of your choosing it's called oddity it's from this year and it is Irish Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Thank you very Good go. No, please. No you you think we're going to say the same thing. Thank you very much to the person on Reddit, Midnight Wolf 1607, which is I assume the year they were born, who gave us some insights into the pronunciation of names of actors in this movie,

which I will not attempt. It's Gwilym and Tige, we've got it. For Gwilym, Wolfie says, Gwilym, think Defoe with a G. I like that Wolfie was like, listen, I know these two and they're very fucking stupid. So I'm gonna spell this out for them. And honestly, I appreciate that Wolfie was like, listen, I know these two and they're very fucking stupid. So I'm going to spell this out for them. And honestly, I appreciate that.

Very sweet. Very sweet. They said it in language I could understand. Sure. They mentioned Midsommar's murders. Yeah. Did you ever watch that? I watched the first episode and there was like some weird like transphobic jokes and

I was like, you know what? I'm out. There's a lot of weird incest in the first series, I think. Oh, weird. Yeah. I remember being like, I will stick with this, but I'm not quite sure why. I will stick with this and it's for the incest. I mean, it's my thing. Ew. No, it's not. That's gross. I like that you grossed yourself. Yeah, I wish I hadn, no it's not. That's gross. I like that you grossed yourself.

Yeah, I wish I hadn't said it, frankly. Oh, also Alan's drunk. This time Alan's drunk. I'm, I'm sorry to say that Katie is not lying. So if he sounds like he's at three quarters speed, that's why. Hey, Katie. at three quarters speed, that's why. Hey, Katie.

This movie opens with a drone shot of a lonely road on an overcast day. What do you know? Coming out of an algae-filled pond. Yeah. He loves you. I love it. Of course you do.

It's like literally a back piece tattooed on you, it's perfect. What does this seem like? Sad back roads? I'm into it. Sad back roads on a sad day. It's just like, it's setting, it's like, this whole movie is setting up like folk horror

without being like, hey, we're obviously doing this but like if you know, you know Tell me more about that because I don't know Just the whole thing with like the the the setting it up in the woods I've been real into I've been trying to find a horror novel that matches the Opening shot of the witch of the like scary woods. That's all I want out of a book. I have a collection called damnable tales that you might like. It's a short story collection. I'll see what you think about that. I would like to read that. Yeah. And I feel like this

this movie was just like, look, we're in the woods. We're on a secluded road. These people live in a barn that's now fancy. Look, guys, what are you doing living in a barn? You're not a pony. You're not a full grown horse. Katie, I know you like rooms, but why do you come down on just a house full of hallways? What about a walkway to question mark? A walkway to walkway? Are you into that?

I don't understand. Is that like the hayloft or something? I don't understand what's happening there. Whomst can say? I am the furthest thing from farm. Sure. I've not really even been in a working barn. That's not true. That's 100% not true.

We have video evidence that you have been in a working barn where you touched a horse. Oh yeah. That was a stable. That wasn't a barn. Okay. What's the difference? I don't know. I don't know.

You came in hot, but I don't think you. What's the difference? Actually, I don't know. I don't know. I just... I don't know. You came in hot, but I don't think you can tell me the difference. No, somewhere Betsy's screaming into her iPod. Betsy's not listening to this. She is. She loves us. Hi, Betsy.

Hi, Betsy. And we come in on this woman who is rehabbing this house and fixing a trap door that will never come back in the rest of the movie. I missed the trap door the first time around. So when I came up later, I was like, has that always been there? Did Olivia Rodrigo fall through that? What does that mean? Olivia Rodrigo recently fell through a trap door on stage.

Katie, it's not like you're, it's like you're not even on the internet. Yes, Katie, you have a question? Who is Olivia Rodrigo? She is a youngster who sings songs for other youngsters who my partner is very into because she says a lot of swear words in her songs. Wow, that's edgy.

Missy loves anyone yelling the word fuck in a song. She loves anyone yelling the word fuck, period. That's true. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We're getting a series of shots of the lonely road. We get shots from what appear to be a mental hospital. Oh, god. There's a person sitting out on a fire escape,

and an orderly comes out and says, What do you think you're doing? Get back inside. And I just thought, maybe don't let him out there in the first place. I don't know. But also from the jump, you're like, Oh, this orderly is a bad man. He's a bad man. He's got bad man vibes. And I love this movie because it's never like, hey, you're going to have to solve a mystery because we're actually going to hand the mystery to you, enjoy, and we're still going to manage

to scare the living shit out of you. I mean, I didn't realize that, spoiler alert, he was the killer until it was revealed that he was the killer. Sure. But I liked it anyway. There's literally a scene later on in the film. And I beg forgiveness of the people that I saw recently. They were complaining that we jump ahead in movies

and they don't enjoy that. Who told you? Who said that? Someone in real life? No, someone on the God Awful Movies Discord that I saw. Wow, that's a deep cut. They don't like that.

They don't like it. There's a point in this movie where they're like, where Yana says, well, who is the killer? And then the movie cuts to Ivan walking up a flight of steps, and it was like, fuck yeah, movie. like lay it out, let's just do this. All right, fair enough. But that's again, watching it, this is my second time through,

so I had that information. I mean, I was busy like holding a blanket to my face, so. Good, I mean, I can't ask her anything more. No. A person in this mental hospital has a muzzle. A muzzle? Mm-hmm. And that'll never come back up. That's very upsetting.

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, why would you need to muzzle someone? Oh yeah, that's right, because they're going to bite you. Because they're going to bite you. Ugh. How did you feel about Dr. Handsome? Oh, do you think he's handsome? Ted Timmis? Are you joking me? I am not. I

don't, he's not, I don't like him. And how would you pronounce his name? Uh, can you spell it for me? G-W-I-L-Y-M. Gwilym. Gwilym Defoe. Gwilym Defoe. That's what it is, right? Yeah, I think so. That's what Wolfie says. You did not find him handsome. No, he has a pinchy thing in his face that I don't like. Sure, sure. And he's also being presented as being a little bit off, very aloof, something's not clicking in his little brain pan. Kind of a piece of shit, as you were?

I would say a piece of shit, yeah. A piece of shit is exactly right. So we see Dr. Handsome, and he's at the hospital, and then the lady who was fixing the trapdoor gives him a call on her cell phone because she found reception in the house. And she seems so sweet and cute. Oh my god.

The most adorable. Adorable. Her wig is kind of shit, though. What? You think that's a wig? Wait, do you think they had identical twins playing these parts? Do you think it took me a long time

to realize it was the same actor playing this character? Did it happen when Darcy later says we're identical? Yeah, which was like 20 minutes after Darcy had been introduced. Yes, it was. Oh, buddy. So she calls and she's just like, hey, I'm fixing the house. I'm going to be sleeping in the nightmare tent tonight. And? I don't the house. I'm gonna be sleeping in the nightmare tent tonight. And...

I don't understand this. Don't sleep there. I can only assume the tent inside the house is because they did not have heat in the house yet and you're gonna be warmer in a tent than not in a tent? I guess. Well, the tent is gonna keep your body heat in. Don't live somewhere that doesn't have heat yet.

It's cold there in Ireland. Is that good or is that Scottish? That's Scottish. This is pretty Scottish. Ireland. Look, if people can make this hand gesture at me and say, Mamma Mia, I feel like I should be allowed to say Ireland. I feel like in the grand scheme of offensive things

to Irish people that you may or may not have said over the years. Well, like I hate Irish people. Just saying Ireland is fine. Ireland, you said it, you did it better. I don't really hate the Irish. We all know that. Yeah, it is fine. Ireland, you said it, you did it better. I don't really hate the Irish. We all know that. Yeah, it's fine.

It's all said with love. It's said with tolerance. I tolerate the Irish. Did you see that we got a five star review that the subject line just said, why does Katie hate the Irish? And then the content just said, who does Katie hate the Irish? Yeah. And then the content just said, who hurt you, dog?

Who hurt you, dog? And it was like, did I write that? Sorry. No, no. I just feel like ending it with a dog is definitely something I would do. You and Randy Jackson. That's why I'm out, dog. That's why I'm out doc

She would she she asked her husband dr. Tim is to call her sister and Because he well he offers to call and she's like, yeah Can you do that and then she hangs up and immediately calls her sister? She sure does she calls her sister Darcy and we understand that Darcy has some sort of illness that requires regular checkups. Yeah. And she says to her sister on the voicemail, we are connected. Which I guess is about the cell phone but also isn't?

Yeah, I know. Yeah. But I really like this jump scare when he hangs up the phone and then the, I can't remember the name of the balls on his desk, but they start clicking. Yes. And there's a gentleman in there who's just clicking them. And I really like this like little jump scare they give us.

I have to say, you know, I normally find jump scares to be fairly cheap, but I really thought they were good in this. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. But also I guess patients have free reign of the place where they can just come into your office, but like we're mad about it if they go out

on the fire escape, like what? I do have to say the juxtaposition of this movie and last week's split of the like sort of humanity that's given to people with mental illness in this film that was not given to any of the characters in Split. You mean any of the 24 James McAvoy's? Or any of the young girls who have suffered trauma

or any blabity blabity blabity. Let's never speak of Split again. Can we make a pact right here, right now, that we'll never mention it again? I will go as far as to say, I don't know what you're talking about. Who is this? What are we talking about?

Split is the one where the six-year-old and the four-year-old have sex and then have a baby? Oh, God. Oh, no, that's old. Sorry. Let's make a pact here and now that we'll never speak of old again. Is M. Night Shyamalan just off the menu? I think so. I think we're done with him.

I think the only great thing we've ever gotten out of that is Justin putting the tree that says it's happening on our inaugural t-shirt. Yeah, that's really good. I forgot that he made that movie, actually. We need to devote exactly zero more minutes to him. Be scientific, douchebag. That I'll never give up.

So, Dani is in the house, and she goes out to her car and then comes back in. And while at the car, she's shining the flashlight around because she hears a noise, and if you've ever been out in the woods at night with just a flashlight to try and see what the fuck's going on, it's terrifying. I would never, I would never be in the woods at night with just a flashlight.

Who the fuck do you think I am? My greatest failing as a human being is realizing how much of a city person I am. Yeah, you're a puss too. I'm like, at night it's scary. Not where we live. There's streetlights. Where I live, there sometimes aren't.

Yeah, your neighborhood's a bit further out out, a little further out, huh? Yeah, a little dodgy. No, it's not dodgy. It's just that you allegedly have coyotes, which I don't believe for a minute. But I love this whole thing of her having the tent indoors and the light source being in the tent, so the whole house is just lit with this like subtle,

low yellow lighting yeah it's a very soft glow which I feel gives this like otherworldly aspect it feels warm though we know it isn't yes yeah yeah yeah yeah and the tent is also like the salvation in the middle of this like very dark you know because again no fucking rooms it's a barn the entire first floor is just one room which also like no because then everybody can see your dirty dishes that's another reason I'm a city person my kitchen is like totally walled off hide my dishes dog hide my dishes dog who's at the door there's a knock at the door after she locks the door? There's a knock on the door. After she locks the door, there's that amazing scene

where the handle just goes like, ka-chink, ka-chink of someone trying the handle after she locks it. Just checking it, just checking it out. And then I love the, she opens the, what would you call it, just the slat to look outside. The medieval guard password slat. Yeah.

I need to see if Frodo and the gang need to come into the town. Yeah, the prancing pony slat. Yes, exactly. And there is a man who is long-haired, bearded, and has a fake eye that he made himself. And he's just like, there's someone in the house with you. And I'm immediately on edge because I recognize this actor from Black Sails.

Did you recognize him? I did not. Who is he in Black Sails? He's Ned Lowe from the first season. He's like the crazy. No. Yes, he is. Holy smokes.

Yes, so you're immediately on edge because he's so scary in that show. But also, this feels like the opening to an urban legend of there's somebody in the house and I need to come in and get them out of the house. Yes, it's the car behind you turning on their high beams, but you think they're dangerous, but really it's the person in your back seat with a knife.

Or there's a killer on your roof or whatever. The little can man is on the roof. That's when you just swerve. You just swerve. She is very nonplussed by this. I would be like, what do you mean? And she's just like, what? What do you mean?

That's so cool. I wish I was cool. I don't know. I feel like you need to be a little less cool than she is. I just want to be a chill person, Alan. I just feel like I don't have it I feel like you need to be a little less cool than she is. I just want to be a chill person, Alan. I just feel like I don't have it in me to be chill, and it's a thing I wish for for myself. But I love this because the fake eye

and the greasiness of the hair and the face right up against the hole. He's very shifty, yeah, he's super shifty. Yeah, all of it is setting you off kilter. He's super shifty. Yeah. All of it is setting you off kilter. There's no way you're going to be like cool with what's happening right now. Right. And it's a, it's a, like a lose lose. Either you let this person into your house and they murder you or you don't them in and the person inside murders you. Yes. Yeah. And then she's like, hey, my husband's

going to be home soon. And he says, Dr. Tim is work nights. He knows their schedule. What the fuck? See that right there, you closed the slot. He says, I heard them in the wall, and I came here, and I saw someone. And you're like, oh he's insane

But then later it all fucking makes sense And he's encouraging her to call the police. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He's like, please. Yeah. Yeah call the police. Yes, please And then there's this great shot of her because the house is not finished and it doesn't have all the lighting, she's looking in these corners that are just dark, that go into entryways and all of the hallways. Because again, it's a fucking barn. It is a, like four long-hallwayed barn

with a courtyard in the middle. Did they run out of houses in Ireland? Ireland! It feels very medieval. It feels very like, yeah, it just it's very strange that you would be like, yes, this is my house now. This is where I live. My walls are all stone. And I love hallways. Yes. But she's looking in these dark spaces and the camera is like slowly zooming into them. And I don't know about you, but I'm getting like super tense. Like I can't see what's in. I don't know what's in there.

What's in there? And it keeps cutting back to him. And he is regular eye is his pupils super dilated Which is also unnerving and you can see that he's like regular dilated eye is moving but the white one is just fixed Yeah, which is also just so un Nervous to look at so unsettling It's oh, it's beautiful Yeah So unsettling. It's oh, it's beautiful. Yeah. And then there's like a knocking noise further in the house that she turns around to stare at.

And the fucking horse because it lives in that barn. Ghost horse. Oh my God. My worst nightmare. And the movie is just like, oh, by the way, it's called oddity. Here's the title card. Go fuck yourself. Yeah.

Did you remember that you were watching a movie because I forgot But I love it I was like this is amazing. Mm-hmm. It's great So we cut back to the hospital and we see the artist that was formerly out on the fire escape is now inside And he has a bunch of drawings of the guy with the fake eye. Yeah, yeah, he does. And he's listening to Dewap, which I find also unsettling. Sure. Why is it unsettling sometimes?

Frankie Valli, terrifying. Say that again. I said Frankie Valli, totally terrifying. Yeah, well sometimes Dewap is unsettling. Sure, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, if Stephen King has taught us anything. I know. Or James Wan in his newsies.

And while he's drawing, he starts to hear screams and groans and gasps from the hallway outside. Yeah. He hides under the bed. screams and groans and gasps from the hallway outside. Yeah. He hides under the bed. Yeah. The door opens and there's a squelch. Oh, it's so good.

And he's like under the bed, hands over ears and crying. And then he goes out to the room next to his and finds a human body with the head exploded. He finds this by, you see him walk out, he dips his hand onto the floor, comes back up, it's covered in blood, and he wipes it on his sweater. Do not wipe that on your sweater, my man. That's not gonna come off. And he has the eye of the gentleman who was at the door we saw earlier. Yeah, the weird eye. Yeah, so that guy's been squished. We cut to Darcy who looks like a Persian cat, I swear to God. She's so like, pale and tragic.

Did you just want to put her on your lap and pet her back? Stroke her head until she inevitably bites my hand. I love the idea of a cursed antique shop. Yeah. Every item in here is cursed. Curse is lifted at the time of purchase. Beautiful. It's a great thing for a blind person to say,

if they run a retail establishment. Yeah. So Ted goes to see Darcy. This seems like an odd thing for Ted to even have done. The idea that Ted would feel any sort of connection to Darcy after the death of Danny, knowing what we know at the end of this movie, is banana times. And what he's there to do is to give her the eye.

He gives it to her wrapped up in like a silk handkerchief. I just don't see, I mean that's the only part of this movie that I'm like, nah, that doesn't make any sense. But also, I kinda love it. I'm not mad at it. Yeah, yeah. I'm not mad at it, yeah. So when he comes in, she's sitting with a bell

from like a hotel. A titty bell. A titty bell, if you will. And he's like, what's that? And she gets kind of giddy, and she's like, oh, this is a bell, let me tell you the story. At this hotel, this guy was pushed out of the steps by a drunk guy and he died.

He was a bell boy all his life. He was an unpleasant man. Yeah, and so after he died, when someone rang this bell, his ghost showed up to be a bell boy. It's very good, and you're like, I hope I get to see that bell boy. It's very good and you're like, I hope I get to see that bell boy later. We won't.

And the last two people who rang this bell are dead. Yeah. And Ted's like, that sounds dumb. I feel like that's a really dangerous object to have if you're a blind person, because what if you just bump it? Sure. Yeah.

But I feel like Darcy is also a very dangerous blind person. She is, I mean, no one treats her with any care. No. When she's sleeping at the dining room table, I was like, she's blind, she's not like unfeeling. Give this woman a couch. Or at the very least a blanket. No, just let her prop up here.

This is where Ted reveals that he has a girlfriend, Yana. Yeah. He still lives in that house and it still isn't habitable yet? Come the fuck on, Ted. Ted sucks. I fucking hate Ted. Ted is trash and you know? Come the fuck on, Ted. Ted sucks. I fucking hate Ted. Ted is trash and you know it from the Minute Museum. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I even know that says, she's blind, did I mention that? I don't know. Why would I have mentioned that to myself? To whom, yeah. So she has the eye, the like, handmade eye, and she is touching it and getting visions of herself and her sister and like a spooky thing and a black hood. Yeah, like a mask and a raincoat.

And also a flashlight shining in on the character we will later know learn is named Olin and I like I love this I'm a hundred percent on board with this I love this like you know I love a movie where there's like this is the reality within the confines of this film and this is the shit people can do just deal with a dog. I mean this is a known type of ESP I guess called psychometry. Are you aware of this? I am not. It's a token object reading or psychos, psych, psych,

psychoscopy, which sounds like a colonoscopy for your brain. When I say no, and I mean some people believe it to be true. Sure, but some people believe in astrology. And I feel like a lot of our listeners probably do. We should, we should cool it on that. It's fine. We support you. We don't denigrate you, usually.

She's also, when we see her at her place, she's like opening a trunk, and she's in this room full of haunted shit like the Warrens. So good. And for astute horror fans, the bunny that claps the symbols is from the director's previous film, Caveat. And I like that. And there's supposedly a short film

about how Olin lost his eye. They came out in 2013. Yeah, I was trying to look at what else Darren, excuse me, I was trying to look at what else Darren, excuse me. I was trying to look at what else Damien McCarthy had done, and I saw that how Olin lost his eye. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So I like that he's just like, everything I do

is in the same universe. Yeah, that's cool. Especially if you're doing well at it, you know what I mean? Yeah, and you're doing these sort of low budgetbudget, intense horror movies. For sure.

I've not seen Caveat, but I've heard that it's good, but that this movie is more actualized than Caveat was. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So we get... If only I had a podcast to do horror movies and discuss them on. I know that would be cool.

We should start that. We're back at the barn. We meet Yana, who seems a bit of a bitch. Yeah, but I have to say I enjoy her bitchiness. I really like Yana. I like how she always has her eyes open this wide. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

Why wouldn't you? You're living in a nightmare house. A nightmare barn where your boyfriend's ex-wife was murdered and he doesn't seem to care. Mm-mm. Not at all. He doesn't seem to care that you hate being there, that his ex-wife was murdered there, that you hate being there. That you found his ex-wife's murdered there, that you hate being there. That you found his ex-wife's camera,

or his late wife, his late wife's camera, and she's like, do you wanna keep this? And he's like, no, and she's like, she died, it'd be weird if you didn't want memories of her. And he's like, oh yeah, in that case I want them. What? Fucking guy. And she's like, hey, actually, I hate being here.

I'd like to go stay at my apartment. And then she says it like she has to get his permission to do it. And I was like, Yana, you're better than this. Just go back to your fucking apartment. You are a senior sales rep at a pharmaceutical company. You go to your fucking apartment. Ted's dick game cannot be that good. I bet Ted is a very ungenerous lover.

Ted does not go down. You know what I mean? Yeah, Ted definitely says, was that good for you? Ted says, oh, I'm sorry, did you want me to finish you? And you're like, no, just don't even bother. I'm good, Ted, thanks so much. Ted, it's fine. You can make me a sandwich. I'm gonna roll over and pass out. On the camera, we see a photo that Yana has taken and it looks like Dani is in the photo. Yeah, run, run now.

Run at the top of your fucking speed and run out of this home. Yes, because she turns around and sees Dani on the goddamn walkway. I'm done. I'm getting strong Lake Mungo vibes, and I have to blow this house up and run away. Yeah, I think the only choice is to set it on fire

for the insurance money. Yeah. And when she describes this to him, he's like, I have to listen to all kinds of crazy things at work. I don't need to hear it when I come home. You're just like, man, I can't wait for Ted to get his. Kids, if your partner is dismissive of you having problems with the situation, move on. Like, especially seeing a ghost. I feel like that's extra. Sure, especially the ghost of a dead wife.

Yeah, who died where you're standing in this goddamn barn. I love the scene that comes up where she's like, yeah, Darcy sent us this box. And he's like, oh, that's weird. And then she goes, Darcy's outside he goes maybe she's inside it and she on it goes no she's outside she's just waiting outside for them she's standing in front of the car like she drove it there I was like Darcy no you might be a medium but I don't believe that that means you can like suss out the traffic lights you you know what I mean? She might be an extra large.

She might be able to drive. I wanted you to think that I had frozen on the screen because I just didn't know what to say. No, after ten years I've made the joke at least 11 times, so I knew what to expect. Blank stares for days. Ay, ay, ay. So Darcy has come to stay because she seems to believe that Ted has invited her to be there for the anniversary of Danny's death. So what I love is that she absolutely does not believe

that Ted has invited her, but she knows the full story of what happened to her sister. So she's like, hey Ted, you invited me to be here. Yeah, you can't turn me away now. She says, I'm here now, can you call in sick? And I was like, fuck dude, I need to be that assertive in my life, instead of just being like, oh my God, I'm so sorry.

Let me just totally inconvenience myself for you. Darcy fucking rips. Yeah, we should all be more like Darcy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ugh, I suck. I'm a little sad that she's not a D apostrophe RC, like the bass player of Spatchikpupkins. Yeah, that lady was cool.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. She would also probably seek vengeance for her sister's death. like the bass player of Spatchikpupkins. Yeah, that lady was cool. Yeah, yeah, yeah. She would also probably seek vengeance for her sister's death. Oh my god, yeah, I wouldn't fucking kill that Darcy's sister either. I don't think she has anything to do with Billy Corrigan anymore,

so she's probably the sensible one. So that's good, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So he's going to work, Yana says she's going to her, she has plans in the city. So Darcy's like, all right, I'll just stay. Yeah, hey, can you fix me something to eat

before you leave? That's very good. And Yana's response is, there's a refrigerator in there if you want food. She's like, go find it? I'm sorry, blind lady, Why don't you go find it? So we also are told that she wants Ted to have the thing that's in the box. She says it was her mother's and she's giving it to Ted.

Who sucks. Yeah. It was, uh, it was the, as you know, the fifth wedding anniversary present is wood, and this gift was given to her mother by a witch. A witch my mother knew gave it to her, and I want you to have it. Which I was like, that's all the fucking setup you need.

Well done, movie. Right, you're just like, immediately like, my life is weird. I have this weird thing. It belongs to you now. You're fucked. Right? I feel like so many other movies are like, let me trace this long convoluted path

to explain what's happening. And this movie's just like, mother knew a witch. Here's a wooden man. Enjoy the rest of your evening. The wooden man is really something. Ugh, ugh. Really something. Ugh.

Yeah, I love when he moves off screen. It's so good. I love when he moves off screen. I love it less when he's moving on screen. Sure, but when he's moving off screen, like should overshadow him moving on screen. Sure, but when he's moving off screen, like should overshadow him moving on screen later on. For sure, for sure. And so she's gonna stay, Ted goes into the hospital.

Yep, and Yana goes to make her some food. Mm-hmm. Which is a very nice charcuterie platter, which Darcy puts her hands all the fuck over. All over! All over. I love Darcy so much. I'm gonna touch all your meats.

She's gotta find out what's on the plate, I guess. So when Yana comes back from the kitchen, she says, why did you take him out of the box? And Darcy says, I didn't. I didn't. I didn't. And Yana goes, okay. And Yana has, her keys are gone, so she can't leave as planned.

Right. And she says to her, have you seen my keys? And Darcy, who is blind, like sort of recoils at this. I appreciated this, because she kind of looks at Diana like, duck. How fucking dare you. Also, this is where I wrote myself a note.

Maybe I should start wearing silk blouses. Gives real I'm a bitch vibe. I fully support you doing this. You think I can pull off a silk blouse? Oh my god, are you joking me? I don't think I'm, I think I'm a little too cash. No way, you've got beautiful shoulders for it. Oh thank you.

What a nice thing to say. You can definitely do this. You can do, yeah, 100%. Oh my God, thank you. Should the Patreon buy you some silk blouses? No. But Darcy says to her, oh wonderful, I was hoping the three of us could spend some time together. And I think she means not her, Yana, and Ted,

but her, Yana, and the wooden man. 100%. That's amazing. Oh my God. Seriously, I feel like Darcy should go down in the pantheon of like horror movie villain Avengers in the most beautiful way.

Like she's fantastic. She is legend. So the wooden man is sitting at the table now. Yes, he's got his hands kind of resting on the table with his elbows up like a person who is like perhaps waiting for their food impatiently. Sure. Like a toddler that's waiting for its food impatiently. Like he may, if he had a fork in one hand and a knife in the other, he'd be banging

them on the asylum, and he's looking through the file for a Declan Barrett. And I think Declan is the artist, perhaps? Yes, the man who finds the body of Olin. And he has a bunch of drawings in his file, and one of them is the face of the wooden man. And it's so good. It's so good.

And some of the other ones are a human body with his head exploded. Yes, he sure does draw that too. This is cut with Yana and Darcy at the table. And Darcy is telling Yana about how she does run an antique store, but it's not her main source of income, that she also reads objects. Right.

Yeah. And Yana says, if you can make a living from that, more power to you. And again, I feel like Yana is just all of us watching this movie. She sure is, but then she says to Darcy, do I look stupid? And Darcy says, I have no idea what you sound like. I have no idea what you look like.

You sound stupid. Well, she says, do I look stupid after Darcy asked her if she would let a stranger into the house? Oh, right. And she says, do I look stupid? And that's why she says, you sound stupid, because my sister wasn't stupid and she let someone in. Right, she says, do I look stupid and that's why she says you sound stupid Because my sister wasn't stupid and she let someone in right She says do I look stupid because we were identical which is where you realize they were twins. Yeah

Yeah, which is my twins. I mean the same actor what they're twins two different ladies to they're like Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen The same baby on Full House? Not identical. She says she didn't let him in. She didn't. She didn't. This cuts back to Danny's last night on this mortal coil. This is so scary. It is so scary. So scary. I don't even wanna like talk about how scary it is because I don't wanna ruin it for anyone

who hasn't seen this movie yet. She gets the least effective handheld weapon of a ball peen hammer. Not even a claw hammer. A claw hammer's gonna be able to dig into somebody. And she grabs, she has set up a camera at her sister's behest that is automatically taking timed photographs.

And she's only captured orbs on the photo so far. But those are ghosts if you watch those ghost shows. Exactly. Yeah. And so she has taken the camera into the tent to see if she can see anything after Olin is left to run to town to get the cops. Yes.

And what does she see on the camera, Katie? She sees the face, the face jumpscare. No, she sees the man. She sees him standing outside the tent. Oh, right, she sees the man standing outside the tent. This is not the face jumpscare. And then she slowly unzips the tent, and she looks around,

and then the face dips in to look at her. It's like silent and dark and tense. And the face is like a porcelain mask. With the eyes like weirdly butthole-y cut out? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And they're like kind of bleeding too or something. They're drippy of some sort. And that's when I yelled Jesus Christ when he looks in.

Yes, I wrote, ah! And he has her ball peen hammer. How, why didn't she take it? How did he get it? I love this scene because it's like he crouched down outside the tent and then the scene kind of cuts and when it cuts back the tent is covered in blood. The inside, yes. He's still crouch cuts back the tent is covered in blood and he's still he's still crouching outside the tent yes he's in the same spot but the inside

of the tent is covered in blood and his mask is too. Oh my god. Yeah. You're right though at this point that it does cut to Ivan. Yeah, yeah, well there's the scene of like, of Darcy explaining to Yana that her sister wasn't killed by Olen, and Yana says, well, who killed your sister? And then it cuts to Ivan walking down the hallway. Yeah, you're right about that. Which I really liked. Yeah, for sure.

I wish I was as fucking full on weird as Darcy. Like not just a little quirky, but just like all encompassingly weird. I feel like we could work on that. We could get you there. I think it's too late. I've got like a grownup job, you know? Sure. Yeah. And like a seven year old. It's probably too late to get like real weird. It's too late to get real weird. It will be life ruining if I do.

My mom was this and then she became real weird. There's a conversation between Ivan the orderly and the doctor, Dr. Ted, and it's something about there's like a cross at a school that the orderly keeps going and breaking. Oh is this while they're playing chess? Yeah. And he yeah he's telling about the school that he went to as a kid that there's sort of an implication that he was abused at the school. I think so, yeah.

So he goes there and even though it's overgrown, the township has planted a cross that every year he goes and twists until it breaks, but they keep replacing it. Yeah. And then he's like, hey Ted, do you wanna come with me this weekend, I'm gonna do it again. You wanna come break the cross with me?

Ted's like, nah. And I feel like Ted and Ivan don't have that relationship, but if you were like, hey, I'm gonna go to the school that abused me as a child and ruined stuff, do you wanna come with me? I'd be like, absolutely, let's do this. You'd be like, here's my hatchet, let's go. I would just show up with a duffel bag filled with weapons

and demolishing things. I love that, thank you. I have multiple sledgehammers, let's do this. Really? Of course. Can I borrow one? Sure. You're not even gonna ask me what for?

I don't, I mean, do you want me to come over and smash the thing that needs to be smashed? I'll do it. I don't really need to smash anything, I just wanna try it. I mean, do you want a handheld, or do you want like two-handed? What do you need?

Oh no, I'll come over and try them out. Okay, all right, all right, sounds good. Thanks. In this scene, Ivan also says to Dr. Ted, you never told me your wife had a blind twin sister. Not cool, Ivan. No. Not cool, Dr. Ted, either.

Wait, what's wrong with Ted? Uh, okay. Oh, wait, no, he's a piece of shit, you're right. Yeah, it's actually that. That's actually the thing. Oh wait, no, he's a piece of shit, you're right. Yeah, it's actually that, that's actually the thing. And is this where Ted gets the phone call from Yana? It might be.

About Darcy being weird? Oh yes, she says, she tells Ted, she says it's Ivan that killed Danny, the creepy orderly. Right. Yeah. And she's telling him all this while she's standing in one of the multiple hallways. Well, just out of earshot, Darcy is asleep on the couch. Yeah. And if there's anything I know about Darcy, she's not really asleep.

No. And when she looks over the walkway, the balcony, the hayloft, the whatever the fuck it is, the wooden man is now looking up with his mouth open, which is great spookery, and then when she looks back he isn't, he's looking straight ahead again. And when he's looking up with the mouth open, she screams and drops her phone. Yes, she does. I love it. This is where she goes and inspects the wooden man.

She's looking for her keys inside of his mouth. Yeah, they're not there. They aren't there, actually. But what's in the five portholes in his head? So yes, he's got the top of his head has five holes drilled in it in like a pattern of, I don't know, a pentagram? Is that? Sure.

Is it something? Sure. Pentacle? Yeah. Pentacle. Where does she get these long ass tweezers from? Oh, her husband's in the medical industry. Oh, gotcha. Oh, and she's a pharmaceutical sales rep. Exactly. Why wouldn't she have four sips that she can go grab?

She pulls out of the first hole a lock of hair. Is that Darcy's hair? I can't tell if it's Darcy's or hers. It's blonde hair. How would that, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. The second two have photos of the twins as younger women. Children and then adults, yes. Children and then adults.

And then a tooth. A tooth. And a vial of blood. And when she tooth and a vial of blood and when she pulls up the vial of blood Darcy is standing up and and looking at her when I look at facing her I'm just saying because she yells put them back and the the sound design of this movie is such that like, the dialogue is really low. And then when she says, put them back, it's super loud. And the score the entire time is just going like this.

It's very unnerving. Yeah. How did she know? Is she the Wooden Man? Yes. Okay. Oh my God. So then she sits down at the table again

with the Wooden Man, like they might just start playing Escape the Dark Castle or something. Great game. And Yana's like, fuck you, I'm leaving. No, Yana goes to bed at this point. Yeah, she does not put her to bed. She does not give anywhere for Darcy to sleep, and then she tries to go to sleep in a wool sweater,

as far as I can tell. And a necklace. And I was like, sleeping in a long necklace is not a good idea ever. Yana, pull it together. Oh my god, it's so good, though. So Yana goes upstairs upstairs and she's like, I can't sleep, I'm gonna look through the camera

of my current boyfriend's dead ex-wife. Who died where I am currently. Yeah, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. And there's a video of Danny joking around about how romantic it is to sleep in the tent, and Ted's got a sweater over his head. He's being a bitch, she's being a little bitch. That's just what Ted is.

He's like I'm freezing, I'm freezing. Ted sucks, Dani should've left him. Yeah. And then she like hears something and stops the video and then she's like, you know what, that video was too good, I gotta go back to it. Sometimes you have to torture yourself with things like that.

And she goes back and she rewatches the video and this time when the camera pans to Ted, it is instead the dead wife. Yeah, it's Dani on the other side. Oh my god, I love it so much. She gets scared, she drops the camera, and then Dani is in the room, and she's going, run, run. But it's in this kind of like, run!

Voice that's not quite there. It's really beautiful. You have to admire Dani looking out for Yana. Dani is just a nice lady. Dani's a nice lady. And in this point, the trunk also just opens and closes lightly. Yeah. So she goes over to inspect it.

What does she find inside? Her keys. Her keys. So it was Danny showing her where her keys were so she could leave. And what does she do? She gets the fuck out of there. Smartest woman in a horror movie that we've

seen in a long-ass time. Smartest woman in a horror movie that we've seen in a long ass time. For, smartest person, not just a woman. Yeah. She gets the fuck out of there, she calls Ted and is like, you never speak to me again. I just want to go back, as you know, I don't respect men, so I just think the smartest woman. This podcast isn't really about respect for men.

It's not what we're about. They've got enough respect elsewhere. Yeah, fuck your, you're looking for respect, you don't come here. But I love it, she like peels out and she's just like, no, I'm fucking out of here, this sucks. And after she peels out, the camera pans around the downstairs again and the wooden guy is gone. He's gone, yeah. Where is he, Alan?

Where the fuck is he? I don't know, but I love him. Oh no. I want him to be my friend. The next time we see him, Ted is home and he's back at the table. I love that Ted has like an old timey lantern in his trunk. Ted sucks.

Not a flashlight. No, Ted socks. Not a flashlight. No. Not a torch. No, a torch as they would call it, yeah. Yeah. Also, when he comes in and the wooden man is at the table again, he has one arm on the table and one arm off. And he just keeps chilling.

He's just chilling there. And he's sitting on the opposite side of the table that he was on. You're right, you're right. He's sitting where Darcy had been sitting previously. Exactly. Well, where's Darcy? She's upstairs crying as you do.

Bent over on the walkway. So sad. I feel so bad for Darcy. I feel so bad for Darcy too. He says to her, where's Yana? And she says, Danny frightened her off. Love that. Yeah.

Yeah. And then so Darcy breaks down the whole like, hey, by the way, I know that you got a guy to kill Dani. She says about Olin, she says he came out here to save her and I dragged him from his bed and I killed her. I will pay for that. And she does! She sure does.

Yeah. Yeah, she sure does. And so we get this flashback to the murder arrangement between Ted and Ivan. And Ivan's like, why don't you wait till the house is done before we kill her? And Ted's like, no, it's easier to clean up before it's done.

Yeah, because he, yeah. She says Ivan killed her and Ted says, why would he kill her? And she goes, because you asked him to. I don't love you anymore. I met someone else. That's all you had to say. Yeah, I don't love you anymore.

I met somebody else. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, yeah. And in the flashback scene, Ivan says, why don't you just divorce her? And he says, she loves me. She'll never get over me. Fuck you, Ted.

That's horrible. I'm already over you, Ted. Oh my god, I've been over Ted since the beginning of this movie. And then Ivan's asking to rape her. And Ted's like, no, I'm a good guy. No, you're not gonna rape my wife when you murder her. What if it's a sex thing and then she just gets choked out

and dies and Ted's like, dog, this is just murder. Don't make it weird. Yeah, and Ivan's like, but yeah, but like, what if? God. So before Ted, before we get the flashback of Ivan and Ted, we get Ted telling Darcy, I'm gonna go back to town. I'm gonna call the police. I'm leaving my phone.

When you hear it ring, make sure you get up to answer it. Two things, why would you ever believe that he wouldn't have the number of the detective who was investigating the murder of his wife in his cell phone? Two, why wouldn't you leave the ringer on? She's blind. Three, how's she gonna unlock your phone to answer it?

Maybe he doesn't use a password. Maybe Ted is that stupid. Fucking Ted. Fucking Ted, he's the kinda guy. He's the kinda guy. But no, he was cheating on his wife. He would definitely have a password on his phone. Exactly.

He's sending dick pics. Yeah. That Yana could make fun of later. God bless. Yeah, she's showing them to her friends right now being like this fucking knob. He says it's just a freckle. I think it's herpes. It's absolutely herpes. It's I'm just using. So he goes back to his office and he calls his cell phone. Yeah. What happens then? Well, he gets her to walk forward and luckily we have seen that there's no trap door

in this house. Oh wait, no, there's a trap door in this house that he's removed. Yeah, he opened it up. Yeah. Thud. Thud. I love the thud in darkness.

I thought that was great. It really is. And then you see the wooden man, he's looking up again with his arms on the table. So good. Yeah. He sends Ivan over to the house because Ivan just does all of his bidding because reasons?

Sure, because Ivan just loves murder. I guess. How do you develop that type of friendship with someone? Well, you find a guy who's got really high and tight cheekbones. Yeah. Ivan has the most cheekbones that have ever existed. I feel like that's unreasonable for him

to have that many cheekbones. Sure, sure. Yeah, yeah. And that has made him evil. OK. And so now he's going to go and take care to handle this situation. So he drives out to see to take care of the Darcy situation. He's talking to Dr. Ted on the phone and he's like, yeah, your phone is broken. It's beyond repair, you know? Talking about Darcy.

And we see Darcy is on the floor, like, still alive, but kind of gasping for life. Yeah. And he says, hey, don't worry. It's nearly over. And then she starts, she, like, lifts her hand up and starts, like, waving it, like she's casting a spell. Yeah, and then, like, pulling it close to her Yeah. And then like pulling it close to her chest.

And then like pointing into her chest. Yeah. And then the wood man gets up and starts chasing Ivan around the fucking house. She says we are connected. Yeah. Yeah. Like the voicemail.

Yeah. Like the voicemail. This is why Gen Z won't check their voicemail. I don't blame them. I wrote, where is Wooden Man? Oh God, there he is. I'm not mad at Wooden Man chasing this guy around. He does fuck Ivan up pretty good. Ivan decides that rather than jumping from the lower hallway, he's going to jump from the upper stairwell. Yeah, he does do that.

And fractures his leg. Yeah. And then the wooden man comes and lifts him up by his head. And hugs him to death, just like, oh, wait, I've not seen last week's movie. But not to death. Not to death because Danny opens the trap door. And smiles at Darcy.

Yeah. And then Ivan wakes in restraints. Yes, he's in chains in the hospital. Ted is bat shit. Ted has become like full super villain. And he's just like, Hey, by the way, I'm going to tell them all that you're crazy. And you did this to my wife and her sister. Yeah. And also things happen in mental hospitals where patients get loose. One patient sometimes dies violently at the hands of another. So Chekhov's face-masked patient. Oh my god. I love this. Like it's corny and I love it. Okay. Like this movie,

at this point it's just like, you know what, the governor's off. Let's see what's going to fucking happen. I think you're right. Yeah. So he goes and he unleashes the mask off the guy and, uh, Ivan is like sort of like closed eye laying in bed and then he opens his eyes and the guy with the mask on his face is at the foot of his bed staring at him. No mask. And then bites his toes. He's weird gnarly old man toes that I was like, you're brave for putting those on film. So I had a very different experience to that

where I was like, wow, you have the toes of a baby. Why are they not weird old man toes? They look soft, they look soft. They look soft and spongy like an old man's toes. I guess I don't spend a lot of time looking at old men's toes. Ellen, show me your toes. How dare you? I went to a doctor's appointment on Monday and I came back into work and I was talking

to my supervisor and I told her that I was talking to my doctor about getting a shingle shot because I just turned 50. And my supervisor went, oh, I thought you were like 40. And I was like, hell yeah, you did. That's crazy. I'm sorry. It's not the way you look. It's that you're always like, Hey, remember that episode of Patty Duke where I'm like, Oh, I don't.

I don't. I don't. You remember when Bing Crosby did this? You're just decidedly Gen X, you know what I mean? Yeah, 100%. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Everything about you. You're not an elder millennial. No, not at all. But I absolutely love this guy biting his toe and then it going back to Ted driving home and getting broken up by a voicemail by Yana. This whole movie is a real dodged bullet for Yana.

Like she didn't have to live in that fucking barn. She doesn't have to live with Ted. She doesn't have to die at the hands of either the wooden man or Darcy or Ivan or anyone. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She's great. Yeah. Yana lives on. I hope she goes on to live a very fulfilling life as a senior sales rep for a pharmaceutical company. Ted goes home and as he's going into the house, he finds

that there is a box that's been delivered for him. He still lives in this house where his wife and her sister were both murdered. Yeah, by him. By him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. He's a piece of shit. Oh, he also burned the wooden man. Did we talk about this?

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. He's just outside burning it. You're just like, Ted is fucking nuts. But he did it so that Ivan wouldn't have no story to tell. I mean, even if he told a story of the wooden man, who would believe him? Especially now that there's no wooden man. Yeah, it's true.

What's in the box, Alan? What's in the box? It's the Bellboy Bell. It's the Bellboy Bell. Ring it, you fucking coward. And it's great, the Bellboy bell is like a golden bell with a what, like porcelain top that's kind of like gray and cracked.

Yeah, it looks old, it definitely looks old. Antique, I guess, yeah, yeah, yeah, it looks great. Yeah, and there's a long scene of him looking at it, scoffing, looking away, trying to decide if he should ring it, being all fucking smug. Hate doctors, man. Just kidding. Some of you are all right. Hate self-important doctors. So he dings the bell. He dings the bell. Of course you're going to ding the bell. And then he's looking around and nothing's happened. He hears tapping, but he can't see anything,

so he gets a real smug look on his face. And then he starts looking back at the bell like he's going to ding it again. And as he does this, the bellboy appears next to him. Yeah, the camera zooms out to show this angry-looking ghost right next to him. Yeah, the camera zooms out to show this angry looking ghost right next to him. It's not a jump scare though, he's just there. And it's like a ghost from Disney's Haunted Mansion.

Yeah, why does it look like that? I kinda love that it's like cheeky. Yeah, I think that's fair. I think that's fair. Because it's also like Ted is going to be hoisted on his own but hard. Right. Like his hubris is finally going to take him out. And thank goodness. Yeah. Yeah. He's a real piece of shit. He is a real piece of shit. Well, that's the movie. Katie. Yeah. Let's get a rating on Oddity.

I loved this movie. Ah, I'm so glad. This movie scared the pants off me. And nothing scares me anymore, truly nothing. But I was scared. I didn't wanna go down the hall to get water. I went to bed without water last night I went to get a buddy. Isn't that sad? It is sad. It is sad

and then I woke up in the middle of the night like So dry She had to turn the heat on this week, you know Oh, yeah. Yeah, I was gonna ask you if you turn the heat on yet this week or not I always try to wait till November 1st. I never make it. Dude, we had a frost warning last night, and it was just like, nah, come on.

Oh, fuck. I got a hermit crab in this house. I can't let it go that cold. I can't believe that hermit crab is still alive. It's like 15 or 17 years old. It's insane. I thought they died in like a year or two. Yeah, if you don't take care of them.

Well, I have never had a hermit crab. Pardon me. I'm giving this a 10. Honestly, I thought it was perfect. I loved it. I loved every second of it. I thought the writing was great. I just I thought it was inventive.

Without trying too hard, I just fucking loved it. What about you? I'm going to give it a 9.5, because I can't give a new movie a 10, because I have some hang What about you? I'm gonna give it a 9.5 because I can't give a new movie a 10 because I have some hang up about that. That's very silly, Alan. Yeah, but- Just because it's not child's play too doesn't mean you can't give it a 10.

I'm a silly, silly boy. You know this about me. Yeah, you're a silly boy. I absolutely loved it. Second time, I loved it even more. Yeah, I can't wait to watch it again. Like knowing what's happening and then seeing the setup of everything

as the movie's going on is so beautiful. I can't wait to see what this director does next. Yeah, even if he is Irish. Son of a bitch. I love that this movie, I feel like this movie like fits perfectly into like the talk to me universe of just like, we're just dropping in this thing that exists.

Don't fucking think about it, just enjoy that it's here. There's a wooden man who can do a thing, he was given to us by a witch. Shhh. Cursed objects, baby. I'm just stroking your hair, watch the of the movie like a goddamn Persian cat. It's it's so good. I feel like the the actor who plays both Danny and Darcy knocks it out of the park. The Darcy hair is her actual hair and I feel like it works much better than the wig does. It's a rough wig. It's a rough wig. Yeah. But also, like, she does a good job of playing two separate human beings.

Oh, yeah, they're very different. They're very different. You didn't even clock it. I didn't clock it for a long time, because I'm a dum-dum. No, not because you're a dum-dum, because she's a talented actor. Yes, let's go with that. Let's go with that.

Watch Oddity. It's on Shudder. Oh my god, watch I think you can rent it on like Google Play as well. I'm sure. I'm sure. Yeah. Yeah I just want people to be like, oh, I don't have Shudder. I'm not gonna look for it. Like look for it. It's worth watching Also Shudder, why don't you sponsor this podcast? Seriously, dude, I just want money from you We've given you so much money at this point. Seriously. Katie. Yeah. Can I read you an email that we got?

Sure. Hi, Katie and Alan. Hi. I've been meaning to send you a message for dot, dot, dot, dot, dot, months now. Oh, hey, welcome to finally doing it. I'm proud of you. I wanted to let you know that every night after we watch a movie and we watch movies most nights in this house.

Cute. I immediately check to see if you've covered said movie. Ah, and mostly we have. We are straight running out. I look forward to your episode almost as much, if not more, as I look forward to watching the movie itself. Oh my god, baby. You're so sweet.

My husband knows that if I'm on my phone as a movie is starting, I'm checking to see and then shouting, yes, Wero family did this one. Can't wait to hear their thoughts. Yes, Wero Famulans did this one. Can't wait to hear their thoughts. I watched so many horror movies, bad movies, in the past year because I want to have a parasocial relationship listening to your podcast and crack up at your thoughts.

Oh my god, you're so cute. Keep being awesome and being one of my favorite podcasts. One of. PS. Wait, are there other podcasts? favorite podcasts. One of. P.S. Wait, are there other podcasts? Not that I know of. Not that I've heard of. P.S. I also now yell Brian from Wings

every time I talk about Steven Weber and it's become an inside joke in our family. Heart emoji, crying emoji while laughing, smiling emoji. Oh, who's this from? Stephanie R. Oh, Stephanie R, thank you so much. I hope you're snuggled with your husband watching a movie right now, and I hope it's oddity.

Snuggle that husband for me. And I hope you're spooked, because my partner would not watch this movie with me, and I'd be spooked alone. Yeah, I was spooked alone too. Yeah. We should have watched it together. We should have.

Katie. What's done is done. What's done is done. Speaking of that, what do you want to do next week? Horror movie, probably. You chose it. It's two hours and 18 minutes long. I did, because it's relevant to what's in the theaters currently.

Yeah, we're not going to go see the movie that's in the theater. We're going to see the predecessor. We're going to do Terrifier 2. See, we're going to do Terrifier 2. It's a Halloweeny movie. Art the Clown currently crushing the Joker in the theaters. Which is a good thing, right? We don't like the Joker.

No, we don't like the Joker. I don't like the Joker. Unless it's Jack Nicholson. No, we don't like the Joker. I don't like the Joker. Unless it's Jack Nicholson. No, Jack Nicholson. I don't need anything to do with the current Joker business. It's just some in-cell shit, right? It seems to be. Yeah, I'm never going to watch it,

so I won't be knowing for sure. I thought I heard something about there's a prison rape scene in this one that's like very graphic and upsetting where Joker gets prison raped. Oh. Yeah. So that seems good. I was slightly interested because Lady Gaga is in it.

I do like Lady Gaga. Who's mad at Lady Gaga? People I think are mad at Lady Gaga. Oh. But I'm not. I think people are also mad because the new Joker movie is also a musical. Wait, no it isn't, really? Yeah, there's apparently a bunch of musical numbers in it.

Okay, that's very fucking funny. Because if there's one thing incels hate besides women, I bet it's musicals. I bet it is. Oh, that's really shitting on them. I like that a lot. Actually, I might love the new Joker movie. No, that's really shitting on them. I like that a lot. Actually, I might love the new Joker movie. No, you probably won't. No, I hate it.
