Starting point is 00:00:00 Katie. Katie, Alan, I'd like to welcome you to the year of 1983. Okay. When grandmas are vegetarians. Yeah, was that a thing? No. No. I love it.
Starting point is 00:00:28 I love it. Oh, Katie, I'm so. fucking heavy. This does not paint vegetarians in a very good light. Yeah, no, it's a diet. Who cares? Okay, okay. No, it's a lifestyle, and it's a choice, the ethical choice?
Starting point is 00:00:41 We're full enough of ourselves. Oh, seriously. We're doing the 1983 classic stone cold. Everyone's seen it, deadly spawned. $25,000 budget. I have a lot to say about that budget. Tell me. It's on the screen.
Starting point is 00:01:00 Oh, yeah. And it's beautiful. Yeah. And Don Doller would be proud. My first nose as shit. This starts like a Don Doller movie. Like exactly immediately a Don Doller movie. It's like Don Doller of New Jersey.
Starting point is 00:01:13 The Don Doller of New Jersey. This is, uh, let's give him his due. His name is, uh, Douglas McKeown. Yeah. McKeown. Is that how do you say that name? Uh, spelled. M-C-E-O-W-N.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Yeah. McKeon. Okay. Look, I wouldn't know. I'm a filthy dune. Diego. It's produced by one Ted A. Bohas. You like Ted A. Boas. It sounds like a name that you give to the cops and you meant to say bogus, but you have had one too many and you're trying to get out of that DUI. Ted Boas. How do you do a G? How do you do a G? How do you do a G?
Starting point is 00:01:49 Boas. This movie opens on two men in a tent. Yeah, we're in flannels. We're in flannels as you do in a Don Dollar movie, despite this not being a Don Dollar movie. Don Doller could only dream of puppets this good. Oh my God. I know. It's like they won up to Don Doller. Yeah. But did not have the career that Don Doller did.
Starting point is 00:02:07 No, not the staying power. Did Douglas McKean direct anything else? I don't know. There's only, I don't think any of the actors had any kind of entry on IMDB or Wikipedia. Okay. Douglas McKeown does have a Wikipedia, but one of his categories is career choices. we've all made them doesn't sound right
Starting point is 00:02:31 he did a number of short video documentaries in Los Angeles Philadelphia and New York cool so he did industrial films no he did a promotional video for a New York's LGBT center ultimately leading him to his ongoing role as facilitator of the storytelling workshop queer stories
Starting point is 00:02:47 I love this he compiled and edited queer stories for boys and anthology of writings by members of the workshop this is fantastic yeah good guys yeah pro Douglas a key. Dougie Mick. Dougie Mick.
Starting point is 00:03:02 So these men are camping. They're camping, as you do. And they have a large tent that's set up on a tree, but the tree isn't holding it up or anything. It's just the tree is right in front of the doors of the tent. I love this for them. Is this your first time camping?
Starting point is 00:03:19 Something streaks across the sky. Yeah. What is it? What's going to be? A spaceship? A meteorite. Could be anything. It's a meteorite.
Starting point is 00:03:26 It's a meteorite. Yeah. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. They go to get the camera. One of them yells, don't forget the flash attachment. And I went, ha, ha, ha, ha. Because that's how cameras work,
Starting point is 00:03:35 track then. We've come so far. We've come so far. I have a note that says already giving Dodler vibes. Strong non-dolar vibes. But then there's a lot of subtlety in this scene where there are like some bloody glasses and, you know. There's exposition like, it's red hot.
Starting point is 00:03:51 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It does look hot. It does look hot. It looks very hot. And then there's just a disembarrassing. bodyed bloody hand. And it's dripping a lot of blood.
Starting point is 00:04:03 It's on the stick that isn't holding up the tent. Right. And it's also on the stick that's not holding up the puppeted crab legs that are inside the tent silhouette and as the monster. Yes, it's in silhouette. It looks like a Cthulhu and a bird. And it takes it sweet time on screen
Starting point is 00:04:19 too. It is lingering. I love this because I think it sets up expectations. You're like, they're going to cheap out on this. They're not going to show me a lot of this monster. They know the monster looks bad. They're not going to show it to you. No.
Starting point is 00:04:32 No. Do the Don't dollar thing. Put the monster in front of the camera. Looks like shit. Who cares? They will. And then it will never stop being in front of the camera. Yeah, it's so good.
Starting point is 00:04:42 It's got a great hot, like, almost metal font title card that comes up and says, The Deadly Spot. It is extremely my metal band. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We cut to the interior of a home, Lordy, that wallpaper. Why did anyone? And the pink brass headboard?
Starting point is 00:05:01 So feminine. I have written here, is that her son? But it's not. She just has an old person's haircut. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because we're meeting Barb and Sam at this point. Right. Sam gets out of bed because they got to go to town.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Right. They don't, they don't want to go. We never find out what they're actually going for. No. No. But they make a big, do you, yeah. Who swings that early in the morning? You got to get into town to get a good position.
Starting point is 00:05:27 in the bowl. I guess so. Drop your keys to the bottom. Hope they don't get picked. The hot water is out, and this is where I realized I'd watch the first 11 minutes of this movie before.
Starting point is 00:05:39 That's why it was stopped at the 11 minute mark on your shutter account. I'd love it. Yeah. So Sam goes down to fix the hot water heater. Well, first she gets out of bed and you see that she's got good titties.
Starting point is 00:05:49 Yeah. But she's ruining them with that hair. Hold up. We're back in the attic. Listen to that resonance. Hey. Hey, listen to that resonance. Hey, hey, it's still going.
Starting point is 00:06:03 Hey. Shh. Okay. Listen to the sustain. My titty having friends out there. Think about how your haircuts going to affect them. A bad haircut makes your tits look worse. It's just true.
Starting point is 00:06:19 It's just fact. I can't think of anything less comfortable than what she's sleeping in. mesh mesh on tits it's like it's like a taffeta mesh yeah it's like stiff oh it does not look like it'd be fun to sleep in no but I'm surprised that we got boobs right out the gate those are the only boobs too yeah yeah they're gonna get look we're getting you early they're great don't mind the haircut you like that haircut if you haven't seen this year I'm saying to the titty appreciators to the titty appreciators ignore the haircut it's like a tight perm it's just a real tight perm it's your mom had it in 1983 because everyone's mom's mom
Starting point is 00:06:54 had it in 1980s? It was illegal not to. Yeah. I also, we forgot to mention that when we first see the house, it's a scale model. Yeah, why is that? Because of the ending.
Starting point is 00:07:07 Oh my God, you're right. Okay, but I love the end of this movie. I just remembered it. Spoiler alert for the ratings face. I fucking adore this film. This is bat shit. This is everything I want in a horror movie. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:23 You either, you've got to give me Lake Mungo and just put me in my feels. I cannot do that. Or just go fucking bananas. Just go taff of the tits to the wind. Let's do this. You know nothing makes me happier than a weird puppet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:39 So unless it's the item, yeah. Yeah. No. So he goes on to fix the water heater. Yeah. And the basement might be wet. I couldn't tell, but I thought maybe I would have been able to see it in the 80s. He's treating it like the basement has six to seven feet in it.
Starting point is 00:07:57 That's, it felt like that Barry Pepper movie where the alligator is swimming around in the basement. The only time I remember the Barry Pepper exists is when you bring him up referencing Crawl. Poor Barry Pepper. That's not his legacy. I'm sorry Barry Pepper at B-Paps, but that's what's going on, baby. Yeah, that's all you are to Alan, the dad from Crawl. Which I'll never stop thinking about despite not remembering most of the movies we've done. why were they down what are they doing get out of there so he grabs his galoshes to go down in this
Starting point is 00:08:31 flooded flooded basement is it even wet there's some water on the floor everybody's basement floor has water on it right at some point in yeah in america in america especially in new jersey yeah a water table there on our table so there's a shadow in the basement but i think it's his own maybe it's like filmed menacingly and then i was like wait that's you you never been scared of your own shadow uh i was scared of my old basement quite a bit sure my old house yeah yeah yeah yeah the problem is if you ran from the laundry machines to the stairs sometimes you'd hit your head on the duck work oh no no no but i would always run i'd run it anyway just in case uh it is currently pissing down rain in new jersey as well
Starting point is 00:09:18 in the film and will be for the for the entirety of the movie and the people will act like rain is impassable. Yeah, it's the first time it's happened. It's like 10 feet of snow. They're like, are you sure you want to go out in this? Like, yeah, it's fucking the northeastern seaboard, baby. You got a tight perm like that? You got it in that weather.
Starting point is 00:09:37 It's sure. I don't know when she got that perm. It's tight everywhere except around the nape of her neck where it's a bit flowier. It's where the party is. She's mulling out. It's rough. Don't worry. We won't see her much longer.
Starting point is 00:09:48 So my man Sam throws on some galosh. and then does what I can only describe as the greatest I smell something acting you've ever seen in the movie. Oh, yeah, he smells it. There's extra letters in that word at this point. He smells it, and what is it that he smells? I don't know, this basement that's way bigger than the house is.
Starting point is 00:10:10 Way bigger than the house and has like those arched lentils, lintels, not lentils. No, lentils come up later in the movie. Yeah. Wait, do they? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, yeah! arch lintels.
Starting point is 00:10:22 I don't even think that's a lintel. Is that a lintel? Oh, fuck it. What do I know from architecture? I don't know. I have a degree in the history of architecture. I don't know what a lindle is. I have a degree in kicking ass.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Yeah. That's it. School of hard knocks, baby. School of hard knocks. So it's a huge basement. Straight heat. What's that? Just yelling street heat.
Starting point is 00:10:42 You're not wearing the cap. No. Did you like the message I sent you the other day was just what's up street heat? that's who I am. I didn't even notice because I think that's my name. Oh yeah, it's addressing me. Street. Are we assuming that he smells the creature?
Starting point is 00:10:58 Yeah. What do these creatures smell like? Because nobody else smells him the rest of the movie. According to the legs, crap. Crab. Like old bay. Yeah, all right. All right.
Starting point is 00:11:07 All right. So the silhouette of the creature eats him. And there's a lot of blood splatter. Yeah. It's like there's a swinging bear bulb, which if you don't have the budget to really show the kill this is a great way to do it just like kill him in shadow throw blood on the walls throw blood on a swinging light bulb yeah yeah call it a day get it all over the ceiling yeah um and to their credit there are a few special effects are to come up later in this film
Starting point is 00:11:36 that you can tell they were like okay that's the wad right there will you blowing that later yep so got to get a perfect yeah so you're going to get a few silhouette kills in the beginning of this film right um so we see a kitty cat running around the house we're back upstairs with barb we don't see that kitty cat again later do we yeah it runs into the basement and then runs out okay great so it's to prove when then they're not going to kill that cat good Doug douglas mcunes and kill a cat so barb's like puttering around in her robe she goes downstairs leaves a note for her sister and brother-in-law we're staying at the house right the note is like god I hate my husband and it's like on a whiteboard in the kitchen he can read panty
Starting point is 00:12:17 where her kids live. Yes. Well, her large adult son and her child. She's like, she's puttering around the kitchen, having a butt with that tight perm, and I was like, you are taking me back.
Starting point is 00:12:31 Seriously. God, smoking inside your home. Wild. Wild. Can you imagine? I can because I lived it, but it's gone forever, you know. So he,
Starting point is 00:12:42 she's finally like, where the fuck is this shit-ass husband of mine? Yeah. yelling around for this shit-ass husband who's making her go swinging this early in the morning. Listen, you go swinging early in the morning. You get all showered up afterwards and you head back home. You're here by dinner time. You got your whole day ahead of you.
Starting point is 00:13:00 Because Pete's going to need the car. So she heads- She heads down to the basement and her way of handling the flood that has happened. The turrent of rain down there is just take off her shoes and start walking. Yeah, go barefoot. And I was like, Barb, no free food. feet what are we doing here lady put those things away yeah i mean i guess to be fair i would never go barefoot in my own basement sure what the fuck is down there you don't know uh cat litter yeah
Starting point is 00:13:27 um what's in her basement though is a ton of blood that she doesn't notice that she well no no she does because she sees it on the light bulb yes but then there's a can of paint that's dripping next to it and she goes oh that's right my husband is shit ass because he's not answering her No. And then his hand touches her. Yeah. I love this. This reveal of the monster by putting the hand in the monster's mouth and having the monster, tap her on the goddamn shoulder.
Starting point is 00:13:55 He's so petty. She spins around this bettoothed beast. It's a betoothed penis. Let's call a spade a spade. It is a betoothed penis. A caca dentata. A cacta. And it's beautiful.
Starting point is 00:14:11 It's beautiful. It's beautiful. A. C. C-A-B. But I do like that when they're... A-C-A-A? All cocks are acceptable. Cox are all right.
Starting point is 00:14:21 Cox are right. He eats it. The creature eats her face off. He eats her whole goddamn head. It's so stretchy her face skin. I love a stretchy face skin. Oh, that's later, though, when Charles finds her head. No, it's not.
Starting point is 00:14:38 It is right here. Really? Now the creature is eating her face off. So stretchy. All right, I thought he just ate the head right now. No. I was having too much fun. I wasn't playing enough attention.
Starting point is 00:14:50 Too much joy. Can you not? That creature looks so fucking good. It's amazing. It is the entirety of the budget. I couldn't build that for 25 grand. No. No.
Starting point is 00:15:03 Vicky out here with some poppy amichet. So we cut to another couple that I assumed were people who lived in a different house. 100%. Yeah. Why would you expect them to be in the pink house? I didn't and she didn't. But this is the, uh, some olive oil lady, look at lady gets woken up by the screen.
Starting point is 00:15:25 She's so scurly. She's so squirly, I cannot take it. I have to tell you something. What? And I think I told you earlier and I'm going to tell you again. Tell me. I fucking love Anne Millie. She is.
Starting point is 00:15:37 I can't look at her in the face. Oh man. I can look at her in the face all day long. Really? Yeah, I want a party. with Millie. She seems great. Tell me what you like about Millie. Uh, she's down to help her family.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Okay. She's supportive of her weird nephew. Yeah, she is like, hey, you woke us up with this, but not, yeah, all right. But I love that you love this. Yeah, all right. You're a wild little kid. I think you're pretty great. My sister's a little hard on you. She's always going out swinging.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Getting those titties that the haircut is not doing any favors to. No, her haircut is not doing her any favors either. She looks like she put her head inside like a leaf blower and then it was like Donzo. That's what I love about Millie. She's not about putting on facades. You know the Millie you're getting when you meet her. It's true. She wakes up in the morning. Her hair's all askew. She's wearing a robe. And then when we see her later, having been dressed and gone out, her hair is still exactly the same. Fuck yeah, Millie. And she's also married to that fucking
Starting point is 00:16:40 dud. He's got rings. You know how I feel about men with rings that aren't used. You stopped wearing rings. I usually don't wear them once I'm home. You take them off and you get home. Yeah, because I'm doing stuff around the house and I don't want to get caught, terrified of getting de-gloved. Yeah, it's gross. Yeah. It's gross.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Like, it's just a comment every day occurred. That's the thing that could happen. You're not using power tools. You're making a cake. He used a mixer. Look, if mixers could de-glove you, every housewife in America is in fucking trouble. Dude, I've watched enough fucking horror movies. It's true.
Starting point is 00:17:16 Anything's possible. I was also, before you came in, I was shoving watermelon into the garbage disposal. So, yes. Oh, I always get yelled out for putting my hand all the way in the garbage disposal. But that's, when it's not turned on, it's not dangerous. Oh, this one was running. And like halfway through, I was like, spatula right there. I'll just use that.
Starting point is 00:17:32 Let's use that. Alan, push everything down there, then turn it on. I might jam it. I've never thought of that. So in this kid's room, he has a sweet, King Kong poster and sweet Godzilla figures. He seems like a cool kid. Just laying on the floor watching TV like every kid should be.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Whatever it is, I don't think he should be watching it. Eh, that's fine. How old is this child? His age varies wildly. Did they make this movie over six years like Don Doller? I think so, because the one guy, Frank's haircut goes wild at one point. It just like, he all of a sudden has super short hair. Which one is Frank?
Starting point is 00:18:06 Frank is the stupid best friend. Oh, the scientist wearing overalls. Yes. Okay. Maybe he's an ag science. maybe ag sigh that's a science so I feel like this kid should hang out
Starting point is 00:18:19 with the girl from neon maniacs exactly with the stromo hat and Millie keeps calling Barbara Barbara so I thought the cat's name was Barbara it's a good name for a cat it's a great name for a cat
Starting point is 00:18:35 how soon am I calling my cat Barbara just calling it Babs Babs baby Babs you shit on the floor again So at this point I thought these couples lived together with this child. Yeah. Yeah. And then the phone rings and we meet Pete
Starting point is 00:18:51 who answers the phone in his tidy whitey's. Yet another bedroom in this house. Yeah. Who is this Bozo? This is Pete. Yeah, he's got to talk to Frank about how they're studying for a biology test. He says biology isn't my strong suit. And I thought, yeah, because you haven't studied it
Starting point is 00:19:05 since he left high school 26 years ago. How the fuck old is Pete? He's in college. They're college kids. How's he getting to college? without a car his bangs are really bothering me everything about Pete bothers me oh wow yeah I don't like Pete oh no well he's like hey Frank when you're coming over to study why don't you bring Ellen along yeah which is weird because we find out later that Pete thinks Frank and Ellen might be
Starting point is 00:19:35 an item yeah he just says that to his friend oh my he bring your girlfriend over so I can Googler. Yeah. Yeah. That's weird. Yeah. Hmm. Is he just saying that to Ellen, though, later to be like, whoa, is it me? You give me Valentine Candy Heart, say be mine? I fucking hate Pete. And this is interslice or interspiced with the cat being very upset and interested in the basement. And what I thought was drugs, because it was powder poured into like a little
Starting point is 00:20:07 tin foil thing. Yeah. But it's, But it's not, it's like, it's flash powder. What exactly is flash powder? It just makes a little, I think it might be magnesium, because it just makes that kind of like explosion. Like the snaps you throw at the ground and they pop. I think that's gunpowder. Really? Yeah. You know when I was little, my brother convinced me to snap one of those in my belly button. No. It hurt. It's because it's got powder. So much. So I've been shot. How did you even? How did you do it? I have a really deep belly button. That's fine. But. Oh, I put it in there and then I closed it fast. do you have a muscle in your belly button I use my fingers you can't close your own belly button with your fingers look look
Starting point is 00:20:46 you just you just do that stop Alan I want you guys to know that Alan shielded his eyes and like looked away as though I was like look at this hemorrhoid it's my fucking belly button dude everyone in the neighbor had seen it it was the flapping it
Starting point is 00:21:05 you don't like that i like it fine it was just funny i was laughing i was shooting my eyes from the humor that's really gunpowder yeah i think so holy shit it probably was in the 80s when i did it again i'm stating facts with authority that i don't know if they're true i believe everything you say why is that i don't know i have an air of authority to me that is not warranted i like that i keep being like I just trust you, and you're like, don't. And I'm like, but I do. Nope, got to do it. No, it's just flash powder.
Starting point is 00:21:39 It's not drugs. This is where we learn about grandma's vegetarian luncheon. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. I love it so much. I had a note here to ask you if you have a lot of vegetarian luncheons as a vegetarian. I mean, I have a vegetarian lunch every day. I mean, that would be a bit.
Starting point is 00:21:54 I think you have to be sitting with another person to have a luncheon. It's true. No, I do not have enough vegetarian lunches. I need to have more. especially I would do it a lot more if my friends were named doot to dooddy nibs and juju those were not their names those were their names nibs how do you think you get a nickname like nibbs how do you think you get a nickname like nibble people
Starting point is 00:22:18 how do you think you get a nickname like nibbs I don't know they sound like a rapper's entourage juju yes they're um they're greason.com you know. But instead, they're a bunch of little old ladies, and maybe one woman in her 40s. She's my age if she's a day. Yeah. Oh, I love him so much.
Starting point is 00:22:44 So, yeah, we see that Charles is messing around with explosives and electricity. Yeah. And we know that the electrician's coming today, but before, because before Millie goes to grandma's house, she leaves a note on the front door that says, electrician, go to the basement doors around back. Yeah, right. Which I can't imagine doing. Please enter my home while I'm not here.
Starting point is 00:23:08 Also, that tells everybody to come around the back. You don't have to be the electrician to open the door. Also, your shit-ass psychologist husband is in there make him talk to the electrician. He's doing a weird child psych thing where he's like asking about hobbies and things. Why is he doing this to Charles? Because the parents think that Charles is a little bit off. Oh, yeah, he is. Yeah, and the best ways.
Starting point is 00:23:33 Right. He has favorite monsters. Yeah. Mole people, Frankenstein, terror from outer space. What's mole people? I've never seen a mole people. I think mole people's a Twilight Zone episode where they have big eyes and look like fried eggs, if I remember correctly. Okay.
Starting point is 00:23:48 I think that might be mole people. Got it. Yeah. But, yeah, I mean, what kid doesn't love Frankenstein? Everybody loves Frankenstein. we also learned that Pete is studying to be a scientist and I was like can you be less specific well he's ass scientist he's studying ass science but it's not biology despite this movie being entirely about biology in his role okay so um there's like a psychology sash with with uncle and
Starting point is 00:24:24 Charles. It takes three minutes. He's like, who your favorite monsters? All right, get the fuck out of here. And he's also like, this kid's fine. Yeah. Nothing wrong with this kid. Okay, I see, I see. Um, he asks him to put on one of his monster costumes and scare him. Yeah. It's like, hey, hey, buddy, buddy, get away from that kid, all right? And then he was like, oh, no, I'm expecting it. So I won't be scared. Are you just thinking out loud? Or is this what child psychiatrists do? That's an external internal monologue. I see, I see. electrician shows up, heads right to the base. And he's like, you know what?
Starting point is 00:24:58 It's a living. Let's go. We see some rippling under the carpet, which I like quite a bit. Yeah. And Uncle goes down for a nappy. Yeah, he's going to sit and a chair. He's way older than Aunt Millie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:25:10 He's also, if you ever wondered when I make a joke about somebody having a wispy wish of a haircut. Oof, it's him. Oof. Come on, buddy. Let it go. I mean, he's vacationing at his sister-in-law's house. so brutal
Starting point is 00:25:26 The child Charles goes down to scare the electrician As you do Don't scare someone who's working That you don't know You don't know Someone who's working with electricity When I was his age
Starting point is 00:25:40 The idea of strangers What fucking terrifying We were raised in a stranger danger era You know what I mean Like kids were getting snatched off the streets I don't think they really were I don't think they were either But all those, Advow asks, have you seen me?
Starting point is 00:25:56 You remember those? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was just non-custodial parents taking their kids, wasn't it? Yeah. Okay, well, we didn't know that. We thought kids were getting snatched off the street. Yeah, the white vans. We were all terrified of the white van.
Starting point is 00:26:07 But they've got candy. Yeah. Yeah. And I do love candy. And I would go anywhere if someone offered me candy. Anybody snatching 51-year-olds these days? Do you have Reese's? You know, they make it a black phone, too?
Starting point is 00:26:20 Do you remember that black phone movie? Is it? Ethan Hawke? Ethan Hawk doing a Nicholas Cage? Oh my God, yes. That movie, no, I think that movie ended. Yeah, we're done with that. What?
Starting point is 00:26:34 I'm not gonna, I'm not gonna, I'll reserve judgment until we watch it. Sure, which we'll have to. Did we like the first one? I think we were both like, nah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:45 So yeah, he goes down to the basement to scare the guy and he finds some blood. He immediately was like, oh shit, that's blood. He knows the look of blood when he sees. it because he's a little bit weird. Yeah. It's a little bit weird. And he sees one of the tiny creatures skittering around on the floor. And I was like, that's a good effect.
Starting point is 00:27:02 You guys nailed it. Well done. I love how they ambulate on the floor. They just are so squiggly. Yeah. I love it. Apparently what they did was it's like a piece of wood with an S trail cut in it. And they just ran it on a wire.
Starting point is 00:27:18 Love that. Yeah. It's so good. Yeah. And then they put a little bit of water on it. you can't see the board. And it just goes, it just goes, yeah. And I also really liked that they made their lower jaws jut out
Starting point is 00:27:29 so they don't just look like Dick slithering around on the floor. They have underbites, for sure. It's a dong with an underbite. Yeah, it's a dong with an underbite. And this is also yet another movie that, uh, that slither kind of borrows from. For sure. Yeah. I just pointed out of you like, hell, you agreed.
Starting point is 00:27:48 You're like, that's a movie you like. He sees a severed hand And it's freaking him out Well like genuinely if he wasn't okay before He sure isn't now Sure You know he stays down there unmoving for a long time Because the next thing he sees
Starting point is 00:28:06 After seeing the severed hand Is that It's his father's severed hand I believe I think so Yeah But then we see the electrician Is being eaten and nursed upon seemingly by the creatures
Starting point is 00:28:19 while laying in the mother spawn's lap. Yeah, there are like a little tadpoles swimming around in his blood. And there are little mouth creatures on the ceiling. Yeah. It's really good. It's so good. I love it so much. Then the mother creature spits out his mom's head.
Starting point is 00:28:38 Oh, my God. It's so good. This is fucking amazing. It's beautiful. It was like, I was thinking about while I was watching this movie. there's like a 80% chance this movie could have just been lost forever Yeah
Starting point is 00:28:52 Like it's made for no money It didn't have any distribution I think it made the rounds on VHS At video stores and stuff But like this could have just been lost And what a loss to society To culture to civilization This should be shown
Starting point is 00:29:09 At the Metropolitan Museum of Art every day In an auditorium Yeah Every 78 minutes on the 78 minutes Mom, can you sign this pass so that I can go to the Met and watch Deadly Spawn? It's really good. Yeah, our art class is going again because we really need to get our hand on this. I think you just need to get your head around it.
Starting point is 00:29:30 Yeah, there's a lot to take in. There's a lot of themes relevant to 1983 Cold War. Yeah, reganomics trickle down. These monsters are on the ceiling falling down. What does that tell you? Exactly. It's up to your interpretation. For real.
Starting point is 00:29:45 For real. Yeah. They look so good swimming. They look so good swimming. They look so shit hanging on the ceiling, but I love them anyway. No, I love how they look. They look great. They just start eating all the wires in the house.
Starting point is 00:29:57 Yeah. The electricity has gone out. Don't worry, lights will still be on in the house. Yeah, wait. When they're like in Pete's, okay, yep, yep, yep, yep. So this thing pukes out mom's head. Charles' reaction to it? He's not sad.
Starting point is 00:30:11 Non-plus. And then he's angry. He's angry. And then he's like, you know what? I'm gonna get revenge. Yeah, he does look that way. Charles, to be fair, is like 11? 11.
Starting point is 00:30:22 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We're in a Valor shirt, and I remember how that felt on your skin. The inside of Valor not so great. No, no, no, no. So, and then Ellen and Frank come over. They come in yelling like George Costanda's parents. Like, just come in yelling at each other.
Starting point is 00:30:41 I have to tell you, I think Ellen is a total smoke show. She's cute. she's real annoying though yeah I like it yeah that's how you like them like a smart lady it's real annoying wait I don't think that I said that why are you making me a bad feminist that's what men do anyway they're also acting like the rain is preventative of all other things travel appointments studying like they're just it's it's insane granted we do live in a city that every time it rains, people lose their fucking minds and forget how to drive.
Starting point is 00:31:16 It rains all the time. I know. But these are also people who slow down when they get to a tunnel because they're like, well, it's going to be in there. Barbie monsters. They don't pull out a map and just see creatures in the tunnel. I take the Liberty Tunnel twice a day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:33 People that change lanes in it. People here just don't know how to handle these things. No. How'd you get on the ceiling, sir? What are you talking? Tony Hawk? I wish. So we see the babies are leaving the basement. Charles sees them take off through a window.
Starting point is 00:31:54 Right. And Ellen has a dead one of the babies. Yeah. Yeah. Where did she get it? She just finds it. Out on that driveway, I think. It has little teefees.
Starting point is 00:32:03 Yeah. It has little baby teethees. And little nubs that are like little appendages that have informed yet. Right. And Ellen says, with those teeth, it could almost be a fish. And I was like, do fish have teeth? Yeah, yeah. I had no idea.
Starting point is 00:32:18 I paused the movie to Google it. Did you type, did you look at the goatfish? No. Did you need favor? In your phone right now, type in goatfish. Is this going to be an old man pulling his asshole apart? Sheep's headfish. See, you just almost got, no.
Starting point is 00:32:31 Sheep's headfish. Sheep's head fish. What, those are horse teeth. What the fuck? This is a website called Don't Fear the Sheeper. Katie? Alan. Those fish exists on the same planet that we do.
Starting point is 00:32:53 How can that be? I hate their teeth. I mean, his teeth look just like mine. Exactly. Except he's got an extra set of them. Sure. Yeah. I mean, what?
Starting point is 00:33:04 He has three? Yeah. Okay, good, good. No, no, two. Wait, no, three. Hard to say. Well, you see. Ted Exra said. We have the two and then...
Starting point is 00:33:13 Well, are you talking about baby teeth? Okay. I was trying to do a baby teeth joke, but I got nothing. It's hard. That's a hard subject. Practice teeth. Do you don't have to... Forget it.
Starting point is 00:33:28 Seems like they could have just taken this thing to the college, shown it to a professor. You got to do an autopsy in the house, though. Ellen just wants to dissect this shit. Also, kudos to Frank that put together They're a pretty good dissection kit. Yeah, sure. Put a cork board inside of a metal bowl with thumbtacks so you could pin the skin back.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Buh. I was a conscientious objector when I came to dissecting things. Same girl. Yeah. I was like, I'll go to the library for an hour. I didn't give a shit. No. But they were like, you can get out of class and I was like, hell yeah, I'll do that one.
Starting point is 00:34:01 I can get out of class or I can cut open a cat. No, I'm going to. We were just doing, no, we were doing pigs, baby pigs. That's just as bad. Yeah. Yeah. For sure. Yeah. Where did they get those cats?
Starting point is 00:34:15 Oh, you want a cat? I'll get your cat right now. Dissection cat? I don't, I mean, the Amish, I don't know. Not a lot of Amish in my area. So it feels like these two are going to have like six science sex. Yeah. They don't.
Starting point is 00:34:32 No. No. Just like imagine them doing dirty talk, but like scientifically. Where he's like, I'm searching your labia minor. or you know like i don't know what's dirty talk is this your clitoris is this your clitoris it's the ace of spades sir you've left the room meanwhile charles it's just down there enjoying the show of these creatures stripping his mum's head of flesh i love this effect so much I do too. However, he's just down there standing around watching it, but the other creatures just grab the people right away, like took them by surprise.
Starting point is 00:35:17 So he realized that if he didn't move and didn't make sound, it's blind and can't find him. Oh, they're like Tyrannosaurus rexes. Yes, he fell. Well, and Jurassic Park. Do they have poor eyesight? Jurassic Park, if you don't move, they can't see you, remember? That's right. That's right. Bro, science. Biology was never your strong suit. or algebra. So he figures this out immediately. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:47 I didn't figure it out at all, so here we are. Because that's when he like throws the flashlight to get it to go in the opposite direction of him. I see. The dissection is also happening at the same time and it looks like they're just cutting a hot dog that's like filled with things. Yeah. And it made me think about Frankenweenies. Did you know Frankenweenies? No, but it sounds like something I'd be interested in. So you could buy these hot dogs that came.
Starting point is 00:36:09 pre-stuffed with either cheese or chili. I feel like you need to know before you bite in. Well, no, no, no. You could buy a pack of cheese or a pack of chili. Oh, I see. You made it sound like it was a grab bag. I just remember. Like a prize in a crackerjackbox.
Starting point is 00:36:26 And you microwaved them. Yeah. Of course you did. Of course you did. Yeah. Oh, man. Frankenweenies. I wish there was a vegetarian version of a Frankenwee.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Alan, I will stuff vegetarian chili into a vegetarian. hot dog for you and you can put it in the microwave. No guarantees. It's no brown rice and green sauce. Brown rice and green sauce. Holy shit. So the dissection's happening and then we cut over to Aunt Millie at, uh, at, at, at grandma's house. Katie, I'm going to send you a block of text. Okay. That I would like us to do as a scene. Do you think that's something you'd feel comfortable doing? Certainly. All right. Let me just, uh, you texting me. I'll text it over to you.
Starting point is 00:37:09 Okay, okay. Oh, thanks for Code of Silence again. Yeah, yeah, you got it. So copy and then. And would you want to be Aunt Millie or would you want to be Bunny? You know what? Your pick, your director's choice. All right, I'll be Aunt Millie.
Starting point is 00:37:26 Okay, I'm Bunny. And you're Bunny. Okay. So to set the scene, Aunt Millie is looking at Bunny's ceramic animals. I've never seen this giraffe before. He's new. He's big. Don't you just love him?
Starting point is 00:37:40 To the pieces. Do you know what I've always wanted? What? A really handsome gorilla. Oh, what? A gorilla. But they don't seem to make fine ceramics of the Great Apes for some reason. They are our nearest relations, you know, the Great Apes.
Starting point is 00:37:54 But they never left the proverbial Garden of Eden like we did. Did you know he's a vegetarian? Who is? The gorilla. No eating the flesh for him. No, sir. He's peace-loving and adorable. Good Lord, Mother.
Starting point is 00:38:07 You're crazy. She is. And seen. She is crazy. That is dialogue from the film. Great work, Douglas McKeon. I love it so much. Oh, don't worry.
Starting point is 00:38:20 Ted A. Bohus had something to do with that because he also wrote this movie. Oh, did he? You got to run in credit. With everybody involved. Great. So they are, they are, mom, mom and Millie are setting up for the luncheon, the vegetarian luncheon. Vegetarian luncheon.
Starting point is 00:38:38 You know, when juju, and nibs. I need to know. Do you think she just loves a Twizzler's nib? They weren't invented back then. I don't think so. I think I came before the Twizzler's nib. That's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:38:54 And the God said let there be nibs and there were nibs. So they're setting up for this, for this fucking good time party. For a vegetarian food. Yeah. And this is a conversation they have in the, middle of this movie and it's I love them more than I can possibly express they're so they're like who's the the the the couple then aunt and nephew then couple again from uh don dola that you love you're talking about Stephen and Aunt Ruth yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah they are great yeah these are these are
Starting point is 00:39:29 these are my Stephen and Aunt Ruth that's fantastic and their their climactic scene is oh my I can't wait to discuss it. But we're not there yet. We're not there yet. First, we have to talk about how one of the creatures is caught in a mouse trap in the basement. And it looks so fucking good. I was delighted. You could tell they're having a fucking hoot doing this movie too.
Starting point is 00:39:53 Yeah, this is where we get a real good look at all, like, deeply drippy these creatures are. So gross. And looking like Fruza bulk with all those teeth. That bulk. We're the weirdos, mister. That's so many teeth. which makes candles now. Does she?
Starting point is 00:40:10 Yeah. At least she did like 10 years ago. That's nowish. Last time I looked up, probably when we did the craft, I looked up something about Fruzobalk. Yeah, probably 10 years ago. So we get this,
Starting point is 00:40:23 we see the mousetrap. We see so good, so fantastic. But it doesn't hold a candle to the palpable chemistry that Pete and Ellen have in their lovemaking scene. Having an argument about a mess. imagination. Yeah, baby. And they have a kiss that I can only just...
Starting point is 00:40:46 Wait, did they kiss? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I totally missed it. I could only describe this kiss as Ellen going, okay. Yeah, he's being like really, he really diminishes her, like our hero of this movie. Called nagging. It's part of the things I've learned from the game. Oh, great. Neil Strauss is in the house. Gross. We're different than kids, I just have a note that says, don't ask what the bathroom light is on. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:41:12 Oh, yeah, that's a great question. He says to her, you seem like two different people, like a smart girl who gets straight A's, and you sat next to me on my bed. Are those two different people? Sir, smart ladies that are down to sit next to you? Smart ladies can fog. Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Again, I will shout out the film Book Smart. day long. Oh, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:40 Oh, no, I do have a note here that they kissed because then the creature is in the sink making a weird sound and I assume he was jerking off to them kissing. I assume. That's all I have to guess. It's like rubbing his tail on this bottom of the sink. I don't know. How does a creature fuck? How does a creature fuck? Let me clear this search for sheep's head fish. I don't know. I don't know. How was the creature fuck? That was creature fuck. We come back to grandma.
Starting point is 00:42:11 She's got this peepod pen that I like a lot. It's a pen that's shaped like a peepod because she's a vegetarian. Also, who throws that much parsley down the drain? And also, ooh, curly parsley. Yeah. What is this? 1980. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:24 Yeah, yeah. Curly parsley is just not right. No, it doesn't do anything for your food. It's a weed that they're trying to trick us with. Yes. Much like mint. Yeah, I love mint. also aunt Millie is dressed like a pirate in the scene she's wearing like a big
Starting point is 00:42:40 she's wearing the blouse that jerry Seinfeld has to wear and gets really embarrassed about and also we get a scene where a bunny is setting up her food processor because she's got to make the green sauce for the brown rice brown rice with green sauce brown rice with green sauce as you will that's what you had for dinner right as a vegetarian it's it is it is and immediately you're like well, there's no way that this food processor will have anything to do with this movie. No. They're not going to have to eat some sort of meat. And Millie's trying to make a phone call where she calls the operator and says,
Starting point is 00:43:20 operator, I keep trying to call my husband, but either no one picks up or the phone makes a weird noise. Yeah. Can you tell me what's going on? And I assume the operator went, what? Well, she goes, oh, well, okay. I'll just keep trying then. So, no? Also, her face in the scene looks like she's chewing the inside of her cheeks.
Starting point is 00:43:42 Like, she just cannot, she's like gnawing her way out. Her teeth are trying to get out of her head. This movie's all teeth. But while she's on the phone, she hears, uh, her mom getting attacked. Yeah. It looks like it's just biting her shoe. But then there's one stuck in her head, too. Oh, I love it.
Starting point is 00:44:07 It's just stuck to her temple. And then we cut to, I don't know, Hildy, Juju, Nibbs. It doesn't matter which is which. And she just has one stuck to her leg. And I'm going to say Juju is the one with the shoe just smacking the shit out of her leg. Good thing they have Squirley on Milly here to do all the killing
Starting point is 00:44:27 because she just starts fucking wrecking these things. She goes ham. Yeah. She's the best. So. But for, but for, We see them eat the creature first because we saw it climb, crawl into the food processor. How the sauce is not pink, I don't know, but it isn't.
Starting point is 00:44:43 So much green. I mean, it had a couple cucumbers, some curly parsley. What the fuck? It's chimy-churry if you hate yourself. We see them all take a bite. Each one in turn takes a bite and goes, mm-hmm. Because Bunny is like, I tried something different with this. Let me know what you think.
Starting point is 00:45:04 Yeah, it's a, it's a, it's a creature. The one with the shoe is, she brought Ratatouille, so I just refer to as the Ratatooie lady. Oh, yeah. And when she says, I brought Ratatooie, everyone goes, oh, like they're stoked. One of the creatures is also just biting the lamp, which I liked a lot. You missed, bro. They're just trying. They're trying to try it.
Starting point is 00:45:27 They're like little sharks. Cut back to Charlie. He's still in the basement. He has not screamed or left as far as I can tell. He's been down there. all god damn day. No, no. And the, uh, the, the adult teen college students who are now walking around the house for some reason. And they go into where Uncle Herb is. Yeah, where he was napping. This scene fucking rips shit. It's so good. It's so good. He is dead in like an armchair. And there
Starting point is 00:45:58 are creatures all over and inside him and in his eye sockets. Yeah. They're like royal around in his eye sockets. Very good. One does a chest burster, and I was like, you know what you're doing here. You know what you're doing. Four years out
Starting point is 00:46:11 from that happening the first time. We see the big one with all the TVs. Running around upstairs. Just running around. At this point, nobody has thought about Charles,
Starting point is 00:46:23 and you'd think maybe Pete would. But finally, overalls is like, uh, anyone thought of Charles? Where is he? Pete goes, Charles, Charles.
Starting point is 00:46:33 Oh shit, my brother. My little brother. So Charles has come upstairs now. Yes. And he's got a plan with the radio. He's like luring the creature into eating the radio. Yeah. Which then sets his head on fire.
Starting point is 00:46:52 Uh-huh. Yep. As you do. And then fucking Kathy shows up. We got Kathy. We got Kathy. Kathy's here, everybody. Now, it sounds like Kathy is Pete's X also.
Starting point is 00:47:03 Might be. Because he said something about her to Aunt Millie earlier. But now Frank's hot to top for, uh, for Kathy. Kathy's a, Kathy's a bombshell. Another smoke show. Probably not great at science. No,
Starting point is 00:47:16 no, no, because you know, pretty ladies and science don't go hand in hand. Kathy seems like she might be able to roll some dubs though. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Kathy knows how to party. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:23 They have a, when Kathy gets there, they have like a tug of war with her and the creature. Yeah. Using Kathy as the rope. Yeah, the creature gets her jacket. I like that. And she goes, what? The fuck was that.
Starting point is 00:47:33 Kathy, could we get another read on that? She says, Kathy is here to film one movie, not two. Not too. And then again, overalls is like, where is Charles? It's like, why are you the only one thinking of him? I don't know. So I was doing a little bit of reading about this. There's scant information on the internet about this film.
Starting point is 00:47:57 No, this movie is a mystery. But apparently Ellen was supposed to be in the movie the entire. time. Okay. But we're coming up on the scene where Ellen's death happened. Yeah, because her death makes no sense. Yeah, but it is gorgeous. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:13 And her death happened because she got a job and couldn't be on the movie anymore. Oh, good for her. Yeah, because they're all in Charles's room and then they decide they have to run to Pete's room. Uh-huh. Uh-huh. And she just doesn't. She just doesn't.
Starting point is 00:48:27 And the creature gets her. Yeah, it bites her head off. It bites her head off and then throws her decapitated body through the window. So I got to write the note, Ellen gets decapitated and defenestrated. This sure does. We see her decapitated body on the ground with some paper place where the head ought to be. I like that. Why is that paper there?
Starting point is 00:48:46 Who can say? Science. Kathy's like, we got to get away. How do we get to the roof? That would not be my first thought. No, and then Pete goes on the roof. It's been raining all day, dick shit. What are you doing?
Starting point is 00:48:57 And also, there just generally isn't a way down from a roof. Yeah. Yeah. And then there's like a mess. old chimney out there that I couldn't figure out the deal with. She's also looking out the window, looking out the window, he comes over and looks out the window. She walks away.
Starting point is 00:49:11 She looks out the window again. Then she notices Alan's decapitated body. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. No. Yeah. She's screaming. But here's the climax, a boy shoving gunpowder or whatever into a decapitated head. It's a mask.
Starting point is 00:49:28 He shoves it into a mannequin head that has a mask on top of it. I thought it was his mom's head. Because it had that same stupid hair. That monster mask's tits looked really weird. Yeah, so bad. Okay, because when the monster eats it, you can clearly tell that it's a mask. And I was like, oh, that's a flub.
Starting point is 00:49:46 But it was meant to be one of his movie masks. I understand now. Sorry, I just didn't think about it. Because why the fuck would you? Because he packs it filled with the flash powder and then uses like molding clay to hold it in place. And I'm like, this kid is a fucking rocket scientist. He's been thinking.
Starting point is 00:50:02 about what he would do. Yeah. You know? Maybe he should study science. I think you will. Yeah. And he puts it on a ski pole to lure the creature to eat it. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:50:16 So there's all sorts of a chicanery with that. The creature is now busting in the door to get to them. And I love that the door looks like it's made out of jelly at one point. Yes. It's eating its own for reasons that are not. unclear to me? Oh, because it thought it was eating Charles, because the one jumps on Charles, and then we see the creature bend
Starting point is 00:50:39 down to bite Charles, and it comes up with one of its own in its mouth. I see, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then that's when... You think you know the difference between human flesh and your own flesh? If you're almost 90% teeth, there's not a ton of nerve endings or taste buds. That's true. Yeah. I wouldn't think. I don't know their anatomy. I've never been a
Starting point is 00:50:58 Kakata dentata. I just haven't been. You simply must. One must. So he blows it up with his bomb that he's made, that he has to plug into a wall, and he's thought enough about it that he has an extension cord in his pocket
Starting point is 00:51:18 if he's not close enough to an outlet. He's so fucking ready. He's great. So he blows it up, and we see it burning. And... Then there's a bonfire in the town. Right. So the town.
Starting point is 00:51:30 counties are now out, neither of the living dead style, burning all of the creatures. There's a guy that looks like Freddie Mercury walking around with a taser. I like him a lot. Yeah, they're like cattle prodding them or something.
Starting point is 00:51:46 So Millie makes it back to the house because all the ladies have gotten in the car and driven away. Now she apparently has dropped them off somewhere else who came home. Yeah, where did she leave them? I don't know. But Millie comes back
Starting point is 00:51:58 and her only desire in the world, is to find Charles and make sure he is okay. She says nothing to Pete. She sees him and says nothing to him. It's incredible. And nary a word said about her husband, Herp. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:12 So her sister, her husband, and her brother-in-law have all been killed. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. She's like, fuck it. Fuck it, I got Charles here. This kid rules. Why the fuck does Kathy live?
Starting point is 00:52:24 Smoke show? Yeah. The cop shoves Charlie into the backseat of the cop car like he's a perp, like by his head. He really just did it. Hey, you always want me to arrest this kid? All right, so we got Bob here at the end. What is Bob doing with his life?
Starting point is 00:52:41 I think it's dark. He should go inside, right? Yeah, yeah. He seems like he's on the crew to get rid of all the monsters. Right. But does he get rid of all the monsters? Describe to me what happens next. So Bob's talking on his radio with his buddy.
Starting point is 00:52:56 And his buddy's like, hey, man, it's pretty dark. Why don't you just head home? And Bob's like, yeah, all right, I hear a weird noise. And then there's a rumbling. He puts his ear to the ground to hear the rumbling. And then we're back at the miniature-sized house. And next to the miniature-sized house is a mountain. A very big mountain.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Is it a mountain, Alan? It's not a mountain, Katie. What is it? It's one of the creatures. It's so fucking good. It rears up, opens its mouth. The end. It's so good.
Starting point is 00:53:29 good. What is your last note? Great fucking last shot. What about you? This movie fucking rules. Yeah, why don't you rate it? I'm on 10 out of 10. I love this fucking movie. 10 out of 10. Yeah, I don't think you could go wrong watching this movie. No, I think you're right.
