00:00:02.160 --> 00:01:34.599
Nap. Oh, hey there,
everybody, Happy Thursday. Just sitting here

2
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.640
reading through the Fright file because I'm
here with Dustin who wrote this, everybody

3
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:42.400
else should be looking at this.
Dustin Putman, thank you for being here

4
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:47.920
tonight. Thank you so much.
Yeah. I've been watching this show for

5
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:52.319
the last year or so, and
it's kind of surreal to actually be on

6
00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:57.480
it. I'm not the celebrity,
You're the celebrity. Like, look at

7
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.040
this beautiful book. I still I
think I told you, but I still

8
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:04.599
love the texture of this this cover
on this thing. It is so perfect.

9
00:02:05.239 --> 00:02:07.000
This thing's amazing. Read through,
I just hit the mic and everybody

10
00:02:07.039 --> 00:02:10.639
got pissed off. Sorry about that. Read through a handful of the excerpts

11
00:02:12.400 --> 00:02:15.159
a couple of weeks ago again,
and man, I love the way you

12
00:02:15.240 --> 00:02:19.759
write. I love every time you
come home from some random triple feature on

13
00:02:19.759 --> 00:02:22.680
a Friday night and update the internet
for what you watched. And I go,

14
00:02:23.080 --> 00:02:27.960
man, I feel bad Dustin hated
that movie. Oh now, well,

15
00:02:28.000 --> 00:02:34.120
thank you. Yeah. Right now
I'm doing more yeah capsule reviews on

16
00:02:34.560 --> 00:02:39.120
you know, Facebook and different social
media outlets. But yeah, for over

17
00:02:39.159 --> 00:02:44.479
twenty years, I was an online
film critic and and you know, wrote

18
00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:47.800
longer form reviews, and I'd gotten
to the point where I had so many

19
00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.960
and so many horror you know,
horror film reviews that I just decided it

20
00:02:54.000 --> 00:02:58.840
would be a great idea to uh, you know, sort of compile all

21
00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:02.199
of the ones that I love them, and also write some new ones that

22
00:03:02.240 --> 00:03:07.319
were exclusive to the book, and
yeah, and publish it. So that's

23
00:03:07.319 --> 00:03:12.560
what I did. Is there ever
a chance for a volume two or something

24
00:03:12.560 --> 00:03:15.360
else? What's going on because it's
been a while. Yeah, so yeah

25
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:21.000
it was. It was released in
twenty thirteen, and then in paperback,

26
00:03:21.240 --> 00:03:24.280
and then for the tenth anniversary,
I released a hardcover version of and that

27
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:30.199
was the one that you have.
But yeah, I always think about about

28
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:35.080
doing a second volume. I have
so many more that I couldn't get to

29
00:03:35.759 --> 00:03:38.080
right right, We already got a
question in the chat. Dude says,

30
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:43.599
what's the UK labeled offers free shipping? That is eureka. They must have

31
00:03:43.680 --> 00:03:46.039
some sort of deal with the British
government to get a kickback on the shipping,

32
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:51.319
otherwise it would not work. Craig
says he was promised, Katz,

33
00:03:51.560 --> 00:03:53.879
hello everybody in chat. Tonight's gonna
be fun. Of course, we are

34
00:03:53.960 --> 00:04:00.599
going over pickups recent Watches announcements,
but then the big cornerstone discussion tonight is

35
00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:02.680
one near and dear to both of
our hearts. As we talked about little

36
00:04:02.719 --> 00:04:08.199
capsule reviews of the Fright Files,
we're gonna be talking about five slasher films

37
00:04:08.240 --> 00:04:12.240
that are amazing that we love they
never got a sequel, And I gonna

38
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:15.600
be honest, in literally all five
of my cases, I'm grateful they never

39
00:04:15.600 --> 00:04:19.680
got a sequel. I think that
it would have not necessarily tarnished because I

40
00:04:19.920 --> 00:04:24.199
hate when people say, yeah,
why did this get a remake? Because

41
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:27.360
it ruined the first one That the
movie still exists, It's still fine.

42
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:30.160
However, it would have watered them
down for sure, like some of these

43
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:33.560
ones that we love definitely got watered
down by the amount of sequels that it

44
00:04:33.600 --> 00:04:40.079
got. How easy was it to
come up with your five? I had

45
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:45.120
eight, and I had to really
think about my big criteria. Was I

46
00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:48.360
wanted one that are that's like a
big name that people would be like,

47
00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:51.399
yeah, okay, that makes perfect
sense. But I really wanted to try

48
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:56.480
to not cross over with you,
and so I try to pick singular ones

49
00:04:56.519 --> 00:05:00.120
that I'm hoping you didn't pick.
But also, for the first time in

50
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:02.279
a while, all the minor physical
releases in my hand. I just ran

51
00:05:02.319 --> 00:05:05.560
around and grabbed them really quick before
we got on here. So it was

52
00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:09.560
it was sort of difficult. What
about you. Yeah, I feel like

53
00:05:09.720 --> 00:05:14.839
there's one out of my five that
there's a kind of good chance that we

54
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:17.319
might have crossed over on. But
the other four i'd be shocked. So

55
00:05:18.000 --> 00:05:21.839
but yeah, I have some shocks. Yeah, but I have all of

56
00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:26.720
them on on Blu Ray and yeah, I walked around and gathered them all

57
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:30.439
up too, so I have them
to show up nice. Well, let's

58
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.240
get into some of this other stuff. So the book. First of all,

59
00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:38.079
you had been writing for quite some
time. You did some exclusive to

60
00:05:38.120 --> 00:05:41.240
the book. How many how many
were brand new to the book when you

61
00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:46.040
wrote the book? I would say
probably like fifteen of the one hundred and

62
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:50.600
fifty because I had written so many, Yeah already, but you know a

63
00:05:50.600 --> 00:05:55.240
lot of the older ones that I
had written from back in So I started

64
00:05:55.879 --> 00:06:00.600
writing online in nineteen ninety seven,
like short shortly after I got the Internet,

65
00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.720
and I was fifteen at the time, and I still remember that the

66
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:12.439
first review I ever wrote for the
Internet was Contact the Jodie Foster movie.

67
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:16.759
Yeah, but yeah, and then
a lot of the older ones have been

68
00:06:16.800 --> 00:06:21.720
lost to time, and it's probably
better that they were. Yes, a

69
00:06:21.720 --> 00:06:27.160
lot of the older reviews that have
been saved. I went back and read

70
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.279
them at the time, and I
was horrified because I had gotten a lot

71
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:34.439
better, I think, just as
a writer. So I went through the

72
00:06:34.480 --> 00:06:39.720
older ones and basically rewrote them from
the start. So if you count all

73
00:06:39.720 --> 00:06:43.839
of those two, it was probably
much more than fifteen. Very nice.

74
00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:48.639
So with short form reviews, obviously
there's not a lot of you know,

75
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:53.759
the ability to go into the nuance, for seen by seeing breakdowns, not

76
00:06:53.839 --> 00:06:57.600
a lot to go into the plot. For somebody that's brand new to reviews

77
00:06:57.839 --> 00:06:59.839
and they look at your work and
say, man, I want to be

78
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.399
able to write like him. What
are some of the things that you think

79
00:07:01.399 --> 00:07:06.240
are essential to get out of the
way for say a at most like three

80
00:07:06.360 --> 00:07:12.439
paragraph review. Oh wow, well
I know that. Yeah. For my

81
00:07:12.560 --> 00:07:15.680
reviews, A lot of the times
I had the same basic format. So

82
00:07:16.120 --> 00:07:18.519
it's sort of like how they teach
you, you know, when you go

83
00:07:18.560 --> 00:07:23.000
to college and you write essays.
It was similar to that. I would

84
00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:27.120
always have like an introductory paragraph.
Then I would move into the synopsis,

85
00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:30.120
and then I would sort of,
yeah, there would be like a paragraphere

86
00:07:30.120 --> 00:07:35.279
I talk about the performances, a
paragraph where I would talk about, yeah,

87
00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:41.000
dive deeper into like its themes and
it's different ideas and things like that,

88
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:46.399
and then like the tech side of
things. So a lot of times,

89
00:07:46.600 --> 00:07:49.399
yeah, I followed that sort of
format, and it just came naturally

90
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:54.399
to me. Of course I would
break it sometimes, but and I feel

91
00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:59.399
like, yeah, yeah, I
feel like if if people read read a

92
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:03.360
lot of my views. I know
a few people who yeah, I have

93
00:08:03.480 --> 00:08:07.920
read a lot of my reviews and
and you know, regularly every week when

94
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:16.040
I was writing them, and they've
since become critics themselves, and I can

95
00:08:16.079 --> 00:08:18.319
sort of, I mean, not
to toot my own horn, but I

96
00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:20.519
can sort of see some of my
influence in the way that they write.

97
00:08:22.160 --> 00:08:26.680
So that's pretty cool. Nice.
We do have a question from Josephine in

98
00:08:26.839 --> 00:08:30.639
honor of Earth Day next week.
Do you have any favorite movies to show

99
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:37.320
the beauty of nature? Oh?
My gosh, well, one that I

100
00:08:37.399 --> 00:08:43.200
just saw just this past week,
Perfect Days. Ah. Yeah, that's

101
00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:46.000
the first thing that came to mind. But that's yeah, that's the beauty

102
00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:50.759
of nature, the beauty of life
in general, and just even like the

103
00:08:50.840 --> 00:08:54.759
mundane everyday things that you go through, like seeing them from you know,

104
00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:58.799
a special sort of point of view
where you actually, you know, don't

105
00:08:58.799 --> 00:09:05.039
take advantage of any moment. So, I mean, that's a really good

106
00:09:05.039 --> 00:09:07.679
one. It's a good call.
And speaking of that, let's break into

107
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:11.440
it. How about some recent watches
for you. What have you been checking

108
00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:15.120
out lately? Oh, gosh,
all right, I have several, So

109
00:09:15.399 --> 00:09:20.240
do it the first that the first
I have. I recently watched The Iron

110
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:31.519
Claw, and I really liked it. I didn't always agree with Roger Ebert,

111
00:09:31.559 --> 00:09:35.360
but he often said that a movie
is not what it's about, but

112
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:39.639
how it's about. And I feel
like that actually rings true for this movie

113
00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:48.200
because I have absolutely no interest whatsoever
in wrestling, and yet it completely captured

114
00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.879
my attention from the very first frame, and it was more of a human

115
00:09:52.919 --> 00:09:56.720
story or anyway, even though there
was a lot of wrestling, but I

116
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.639
mean, it was just done so
well that that for two hours I actually

117
00:10:01.679 --> 00:10:09.159
was interested in wrestling. But I
would say I had heard some things going

118
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:15.440
into it about some dramatic license that
they had used to the real story.

119
00:10:15.919 --> 00:10:20.679
Yeah, I was kind of afraid
how I would feel about that, And

120
00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:22.960
so after it was over, I
read the real story and I was kind

121
00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:31.639
of horrified by just how much was
changed. So yeah, like they I

122
00:10:31.639 --> 00:10:35.399
mean, for anybody who doesn't know, I'm sure most people do, but

123
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:39.960
it's like about you know four you
know, it's about five brothers who are

124
00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:43.120
all part of like a wrestling dynasty, and there was a six brother in

125
00:10:43.159 --> 00:10:48.759
real light who grew up and you
know, he suffered from asthma and britle

126
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.919
bones and he never felt like he
measured up to his other brothers, and

127
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:58.120
he ultimately took his own life and
they completely cut him out of the movie.

128
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:05.360
So what does that say to his
family and to him that he was

129
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:07.879
so unimportant that they didn't even want
to have him in the movie? Like

130
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:13.919
that was very disappointing. Beyond that, like the reasoning behind it that the

131
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.519
rest of the story was so tragic, but this one was so similar.

132
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:20.360
We didn't want to put it in
there because it would just feel SEMy.

133
00:11:20.879 --> 00:11:24.960
That does feel a little weird to
completely remove it. Yeah, I I

134
00:11:26.000 --> 00:11:28.120
called BS on that when the director
said that the reason they cut, yeah,

135
00:11:28.159 --> 00:11:31.240
that they decided not to have the
brother was because it would it would

136
00:11:31.240 --> 00:11:37.279
make a dark story even darker and
be repetitive. I mean, it really

137
00:11:37.320 --> 00:11:41.960
happened, so people couldn't possibly say
that it's unbelievable. And then the one

138
00:11:43.000 --> 00:11:46.320
other thing, and this is really
not really a spoiler, but I also

139
00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:54.320
discovered that the zach Efron character in
the movie he has two sons. Well,

140
00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:56.440
he had ultimately had four children,
but the two that are in the

141
00:11:56.600 --> 00:12:01.840
in the movie proper to sons.
And I discovered that in real life he

142
00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:07.399
had two daughters first. And the
only reason that they had him be sons

143
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:11.720
is because of the very last scene. And I don't want to give it

144
00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:16.279
away, but there's a line about
brothers. Yeah, and that's the only

145
00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:18.039
reason they changed it was to have
that. So I felt like it was

146
00:12:18.159 --> 00:12:24.559
kind of manipulative and kind of cheap
to change that just for that scene.

147
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:28.720
So yeah, there were lots of
things like that where I was just like,

148
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:31.360
why would you change that? But
you know, I understand that you

149
00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:35.440
can't be completely faithful to you know, a real story, and that's perfectly

150
00:12:35.440 --> 00:12:39.000
fine, but some of the things
was kind of head scratching. But I

151
00:12:39.000 --> 00:12:41.919
mean, but if you take that
all out of it and just watch it

152
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:46.440
as a movie, it's really good. Yeah, Evron acts his socks offen

153
00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:52.120
that thing. That's easily his best
performance by like Miles. Oh, yeah,

154
00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:54.559
he was. He was excellent in
it. Yeah, I'm kind of

155
00:12:54.600 --> 00:13:00.000
surprised that he wasn't up for more
awards or any at all. Yeah,

156
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:07.480
all right, what else you got? I also recently watched Out of Darkness.

157
00:13:09.159 --> 00:13:13.240
Oh okay, this came out earlier
in the year. It was in

158
00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:20.399
theaters and if you blinked, you
probably missed it. But it's it's really

159
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:24.000
good. It's set in It's set
forty five thousand years ago during the Stone

160
00:13:24.039 --> 00:13:28.919
Age. It's a horror thriller.
The director, it's his first movie,

161
00:13:30.519 --> 00:13:33.519
Andrew Cumming, and I can't wait
to see what he does next. He

162
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:39.240
brought so much tension to it,
and you know, it's sort of it's

163
00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:43.960
sort of about survival, you know, with the elements and everything, but

164
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:48.639
then there's a question that there might
be something else lurking out there with the

165
00:13:48.919 --> 00:13:54.039
you know, outside of this family
that's trying to survive. And Yeah,

166
00:13:54.240 --> 00:13:58.120
because I see so many horror movies, it takes a lot to really scare

167
00:13:58.159 --> 00:14:01.360
me. But there were definitely parts
in the movie where I was definitely on

168
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:05.159
the edge of my seat, so
it was very well done. Nice.

169
00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:13.799
And then from Kenot Laiber the minus
man, ooh, nice, I do

170
00:14:13.960 --> 00:14:16.919
need that one. Have you seen
this? I've not seen it, but

171
00:14:18.559 --> 00:14:22.200
also sounded compelling. Oh, it
is really good. I had seen it

172
00:14:22.240 --> 00:14:26.080
when it first came out, but
hadn't seen it since. So it's from

173
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:31.639
nineteen ninety nine. It was at
the Sundance Film Festival in competition, and

174
00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:37.960
I had seen it shortly after that. And yeah, it's it's more of

175
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:41.559
like an art house character study of
a serial killer more than a thriller.

176
00:14:43.080 --> 00:14:48.279
But yeah, Owen Wilson stars in
it, and it's one of his best

177
00:14:48.279 --> 00:14:52.879
performances, and he's definitely the friendly
serial killer you ever want to meet,

178
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:56.759
like to the point where he doesn't
want to cause pain to his victims.

179
00:14:58.559 --> 00:15:01.440
I'm not giving anything away because you've
on this out in the opening scene,

180
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:05.279
but like, he'll just he'll just
poison people. He'll put poison in a

181
00:15:05.399 --> 00:15:09.639
drink and whatever this poison is,
it basically takes them out within minutes and

182
00:15:09.679 --> 00:15:20.519
they just pass away painlessly and and
he goes to a new town and yeah,

183
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:24.519
he meets uh, he gets a
job at at a at the post

184
00:15:24.519 --> 00:15:30.039
office, and he meets a woman
played by Janine Garoffalo, and you're sort

185
00:15:30.039 --> 00:15:33.120
of she's excellent in it. And
this came out like, you know,

186
00:15:33.200 --> 00:15:37.840
right at like when she was really
big, like shortly after like romy and

187
00:15:37.919 --> 00:15:43.480
Michelle and the truth about cats and
dogs and around, and she's so good

188
00:15:43.480 --> 00:15:48.039
in it, and yeah, there's
sort of like a possible romance that forms

189
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:50.440
between the two of them, but
you're afraid for her at the same time

190
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:54.559
of what he might do to her. But it's it's it's, yeah,

191
00:15:54.600 --> 00:16:00.360
a really good film. It's very
subtle, it's not. Yeah, it's

192
00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:03.039
not a showy movie, but it's
it's one that really keeps you thinking at

193
00:16:03.039 --> 00:16:10.240
the end. Very nice. Uh. I am eager to get that one

194
00:16:10.279 --> 00:16:12.639
soon. For sure. It looks
great. And Owen Wilson has He's had

195
00:16:12.679 --> 00:16:15.399
lots of ups and downs, obviously, but man, this one sounded pretty

196
00:16:15.399 --> 00:16:23.679
fantastic. Yeah, I definitely recommend
it. And then I've got Rent to

197
00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:30.480
Cop with Burt Reynolds and Liza Minellie
and it lived up to the cover.

198
00:16:32.559 --> 00:16:37.919
Yeah, that's all you can ask
for. It's not it's not necessarily good,

199
00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:42.399
but it's exactly what I wanted out
of it. Yeah, it's like

200
00:16:42.440 --> 00:16:48.039
a romance. And then at the
same time there's a killer who's out to

201
00:16:48.399 --> 00:16:53.399
off just e Liza Minelli because she's
got in the middle of this drug bust

202
00:16:53.480 --> 00:16:57.159
and she saw the you know,
a lot of the people that were involved

203
00:16:57.159 --> 00:17:02.759
in it, so they're trying to
kill her. And it's got great photography

204
00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:07.240
of there. It starts with this
great aerial shot of Chicago during the opening

205
00:17:07.279 --> 00:17:15.319
credits and just this like cheesy eighties
ballad score that I absolutely loved, and

206
00:17:15.359 --> 00:17:22.079
it's just perfectly with it and yeah
and yeah. And then at the end,

207
00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:26.079
or not at the end, but
midway through it, Dion Warwick shows

208
00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:33.079
up and I was shocked, and
just seeing her and Liza together was sort

209
00:17:33.079 --> 00:17:41.279
of low key my version of Avengers
Endgame. So so that was a good

210
00:17:41.319 --> 00:17:51.640
line. But again, it's not
good, but it's entertaining. That's for

211
00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:55.759
a movie like that, that's about
all you can ask for anything else?

212
00:17:55.839 --> 00:17:57.400
Or is that the the end of
the list for the week? These are

213
00:17:57.400 --> 00:18:03.319
the last two. So I've got
door two. Oh nice, Door two.

214
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:10.480
I recently watched The First Door,
and yeah, this couldn't be any

215
00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:18.400
different than The First Door. The
first one, yeah, it's about a

216
00:18:18.400 --> 00:18:22.920
ador to to door salesman who become
sort of obsessed with this housewife. And

217
00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:29.400
this one is about a sex worker
and it's more of like an erotic drama.

218
00:18:30.240 --> 00:18:36.559
It's surprisingly funny in parts, like
it like it had me rolling,

219
00:18:36.640 --> 00:18:40.400
Like at the end, you've seen
it, right, Oh yeah, the

220
00:18:40.799 --> 00:18:42.799
last scene at the wedding when you
know, without giving anything away, when

221
00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:47.440
she gets up and gives her speech, it was absolutely hilarious. Yeah.

222
00:18:47.519 --> 00:18:52.680
I watched this one specifically multiple times
because I had to watch it on Silent

223
00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:56.160
while putting Will's commentary on there with
Nina K. Martin, And yeah,

224
00:18:56.160 --> 00:19:02.000
this movie is this movie's wild.
So yeah, I enjoyed it though it

225
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:04.920
was it was really good. And
then the last one that I watched from

226
00:19:06.079 --> 00:19:12.680
Deaf Crocodile is The Mysterious Castle of
the Carpathians. Have you seen this one?

227
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:15.039
I've not watched this one yet.
This is on my soon list.

228
00:19:15.359 --> 00:19:21.079
It is insane. I'm so glad
that I saw it. It's definitely I

229
00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:23.279
know people throw this around a lot, but it truly is unlike anything else

230
00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:29.920
I've ever seen. Yeah, it's
it's steampunk, it's hard, it's fantasy,

231
00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:36.799
it's opera, it's money python all
rolled together. The production design is

232
00:19:36.839 --> 00:19:41.440
amazing. It's just Yeah. When
it was over, I wasn't sure what

233
00:19:41.480 --> 00:19:45.359
I had just seen, but I
was happy. I saw that. That's

234
00:19:45.400 --> 00:19:51.519
probably about seventy three percent of deaf
crocodile releases. I'd say, yeah,

235
00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:56.680
that's that's a pretty accurate assumption.
There the ones I can talk about.

236
00:19:56.720 --> 00:20:00.680
I watched a whole one this week. That's not stuff I'm working on,

237
00:20:00.839 --> 00:20:03.559
but it was a doozy. I'm
sure you've seen this one because it feels

238
00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:07.559
like it's right up your alley.
I watched the Criterion release of Four Months,

239
00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:11.359
three weeks, and two days from
two thousand and seven. It is

240
00:20:11.440 --> 00:20:18.480
a Romanian film about a woman that
is pregnant and trying to find a way

241
00:20:18.519 --> 00:20:25.720
to quote take care of it with
discretion and put yourself in just some awful

242
00:20:25.759 --> 00:20:29.839
situations to try to do it.
And it's all about the hardship's face while

243
00:20:29.880 --> 00:20:33.440
going for that. I can't even
say procedure, I guess, but just

244
00:20:33.480 --> 00:20:40.319
facing that in a country that is
unaccepting and man, what a timely movie

245
00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:45.440
to watch in twenty twenty four in
the US. This movie is rough.

246
00:20:47.400 --> 00:20:51.680
I watched this with my wife and
her friend, and man, did it

247
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:55.720
piss the three of us off quite
a bit. But I do want to

248
00:20:55.759 --> 00:21:00.559
say primarily, it really showed everything
that I wanted to see a movie like

249
00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:04.079
this. It really captured the differences
in classes over there. It really shows

250
00:21:04.119 --> 00:21:12.240
you how, especially in very specific
scenes, like how haphazardly some of these

251
00:21:12.240 --> 00:21:18.640
people are forced to live because of
the conditions the trials that face somebody,

252
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:23.839
because they are essentially viewed as less
than And yeah, great movie, yeah,

253
00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:29.839
isn't it. It's set in nineteen
eighty seven and it's during I don't

254
00:21:29.839 --> 00:21:33.319
know who who who the president was, but it was like during his dictatorship

255
00:21:33.400 --> 00:21:40.319
or something. But yeah, I
guess one of the when we had talked

256
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:44.119
earlier this week and you had mentioned
that you had seen something that you really

257
00:21:44.160 --> 00:21:47.960
loved. And one of the nice
things about Letterboxed is I kind of put

258
00:21:48.000 --> 00:21:52.640
together what it was and had I
had the movie on Criterion and I'd never

259
00:21:52.680 --> 00:21:55.559
watched it, so I watched it. Nice, what do you think?

260
00:21:55.799 --> 00:22:02.079
So I watched it last night and
it was amazing. It won the Palm

261
00:22:02.160 --> 00:22:06.880
d'Or it can that year, and
I mean, I can definitely see why.

262
00:22:07.079 --> 00:22:11.680
I mean, the amount of tension
in this film, like it's out

263
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:18.160
outrageous and it's it's enraging, like
the subject matter, but also, yeah,

264
00:22:18.279 --> 00:22:22.519
just the way that it follows these
two women and yeah, it's yeah,

265
00:22:22.559 --> 00:22:26.960
the tension that builds and you don't
know what's exactly going to happen,

266
00:22:26.160 --> 00:22:34.880
and and plus their surroundings seem not
all that great anyway. There's also one

267
00:22:34.960 --> 00:22:41.640
scene set at a dinner table that
was one of the most claustrophobic things I've

268
00:22:41.680 --> 00:22:45.920
ever seen in my life. It
sort of reminded me of, oh,

269
00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:52.599
my goodness, what's it called the
movie with the Shiva Baby. Yes,

270
00:22:52.880 --> 00:23:00.240
it had that same feel to it. It's like forced, forced ringe comedy

271
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:03.359
at the end of the day.
It's not comedy in the moment, but

272
00:23:03.440 --> 00:23:07.119
afterwards you're like, hah, oh, that was awful and we made it

273
00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:12.000
and it's such a wonderfully written film. And I again being a little cagy

274
00:23:12.000 --> 00:23:15.599
about some of the details because I
hope some people hear this and go watch

275
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:18.799
it, because there's so many things, like just by saying it's about somebody

276
00:23:18.839 --> 00:23:22.599
facing an abortion is kind of a
bit of a spoiler because they don't even

277
00:23:22.640 --> 00:23:27.279
mention that for the first thirty minutes
of the movie or something. It is

278
00:23:27.319 --> 00:23:32.480
something that they set it up like
almost anything could be happening. If you're

279
00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:37.200
astute enough to understand romania in the
eighties, you probably get what's going on,

280
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:41.400
but they don't outright say it until
it's like, oh, we're already

281
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:45.720
in a situation that feels really bad
because of it, and now that they're

282
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:48.960
in that situation, you don't think
things can get worse, and it just

283
00:23:49.039 --> 00:23:52.680
keeps getting worse. But one thing
I pointed out in my review, which

284
00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:56.960
I really want to say with the
writing with this, the thing that compliments

285
00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:02.960
it perfectly is the way that they
feel it because it is mostly steadycam for

286
00:24:03.039 --> 00:24:06.519
the first I don't know, seventy
five percent of the film or eighty percent

287
00:24:06.519 --> 00:24:10.799
of the film, and then something
happens and there's a desperation moment, and

288
00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:15.119
from that point forward it is shaky
cam and it's like this this climax of

289
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:19.559
we thought we were in control and
now holy shit, everything is out in

290
00:24:19.559 --> 00:24:22.119
the open, everything is out of
our control. I don't know what to

291
00:24:22.160 --> 00:24:26.119
do, and because of that,
they add with that camera movement, the

292
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:32.960
feeling of that absolute tension and worry
of like at any point we could all

293
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:37.160
be arrested and just the rest of
our lives have ruined. Ronnie's asking what

294
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:41.160
movie we were talking about. We
were talking about four months, three weeks,

295
00:24:41.240 --> 00:24:45.680
and two days. It is a
Criterion release, and yeah, it's

296
00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:52.000
one of the better films I've seen
in a while. I would agree.

297
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:56.759
This movie is astonishing. Still in
print from Criterion, all of the sales.

298
00:24:56.839 --> 00:25:00.519
You can get it for twenty bucks. Please pick this up. Added

299
00:25:00.519 --> 00:25:03.839
to your wish list. It is
remarkable. Yeah, and I also want

300
00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:07.720
to I'm really curious to see the
directors of other films, because I think

301
00:25:07.759 --> 00:25:11.039
Criterion has put those out as well. I think his next film was Beyond

302
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:15.319
the Hills, and then there's another
one called Graduation, So I really I'm

303
00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:18.880
curious to check those out. Now. Well, now, we always talk

304
00:25:18.880 --> 00:25:22.880
about pickups, and you always got
a bunch, So let's hear what you're

305
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:25.799
excited to have. Pick I'm gonna
get. I'm gonna go quick through this

306
00:25:25.799 --> 00:25:30.799
because I have a lot I recent, all right, So I got a

307
00:25:30.839 --> 00:25:38.079
Hamlet with Ian McKellen. And this
is a state like a film stage version

308
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:42.880
of Hamlet that was done in London
last year. So I got that.

309
00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:48.039
It's rare that those get releases.
That's nice. Yeah, and yeah I

310
00:25:48.039 --> 00:25:49.839
try to pick those up when they
do, just because, yeah, I

311
00:25:51.119 --> 00:26:00.359
wish they did more of those.
Affliction from Shout Select. I saw this

312
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:07.680
when it came out, and I
believe nineteen ninety eight and I ninety seven,

313
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:12.160
and I remember absolutely loving it.
But I don't remember anything about it

314
00:26:12.200 --> 00:26:18.720
except there's a lot of yelling.
I want to pick this one up,

315
00:26:18.759 --> 00:26:22.240
but what what kind of pisses me
off? Here? It's a Paul Schreider

316
00:26:22.319 --> 00:26:27.839
film coming out through Shout in an
eco case with no booklet and like next

317
00:26:27.839 --> 00:26:33.119
to no special features. Yeah those
are better than that, come on right.

318
00:26:33.839 --> 00:26:37.079
And also it's really flimsy like it's
yeah, it's in an eco caase

319
00:26:37.160 --> 00:26:41.480
like you said, and it's I
mean, even as far as ecocases go,

320
00:26:41.559 --> 00:26:45.359
it's it's yeah, it's very just
it feels like you could fall apart

321
00:26:45.359 --> 00:26:52.759
at any second. I got Lisa
Frankenstein, even though I know the four

322
00:26:52.839 --> 00:27:03.640
case coming I hope, so I
also got Fallen leaves movie Nice. From

323
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:06.599
Movie I haven't seen it yet,
but I'm really curious to see it.

324
00:27:07.079 --> 00:27:17.799
Two new criterions to die For and
work Master Harmonies. I love to die

325
00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:22.519
for. It's one of my favorite
Nicole Kinman performances and one of my favorite

326
00:27:22.519 --> 00:27:27.920
gust Van Sant films. I've never
seen Workmeister Harmonies, but neither it sounds

327
00:27:27.960 --> 00:27:34.640
great. This one I got just
for the curiosity of it, but I'm

328
00:27:34.720 --> 00:27:41.119
kind of scared to watch it.
It's Goodbye Uncle Tom. I've heard a

329
00:27:41.119 --> 00:27:52.079
lot of different things about that one. Patrick, which is from Indicator look

330
00:27:52.079 --> 00:27:57.279
At, which one of my pickups
is, Yeah, I've never seen Patrick.

331
00:27:59.279 --> 00:28:03.559
I honestly, I don't think I've
ever seen it either. And then

332
00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:12.079
from Second Site, I got green
Room Possessa. I'm so dying to get

333
00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:18.000
green Room in Yeah. The one
year that I went to that actually made

334
00:28:18.000 --> 00:28:25.079
it physically to Sundance was the year
that green Room was there and I saw

335
00:28:25.119 --> 00:28:27.200
it at Sundance, So that was
That's sort of a cool memory there.

336
00:28:29.480 --> 00:28:32.319
And the very last thing I got, and I just got it today in

337
00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:37.200
the mail. It is the first
grave faced title. Oh wow, nice.

338
00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:42.079
So I cannot wait to check this
out. How is it in person?

339
00:28:42.119 --> 00:28:51.079
I've still not seen. I love
the packaging, I love Chloe's art.

340
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:56.599
It's it's very nice. The it
has like a like a one third

341
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:59.519
slip on it. I'm not sure
what you would call that. They're calling

342
00:28:59.519 --> 00:29:03.200
it an obi by the way.
Yeah, it's it's very tight. I

343
00:29:03.240 --> 00:29:07.440
got it out, but it's uh, it's kind of hard to oh there

344
00:29:07.440 --> 00:29:11.440
it is. It does come off, but it's a little tight. But

345
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:18.039
it's very nice. So I was
very excited to get that nice that release

346
00:29:18.079 --> 00:29:22.519
of Hamlet. Did you get that
on Amazon UK? Yes? Yeah,

347
00:29:22.759 --> 00:29:26.759
Stan is asking where because he wants
not once, sorry, he needs it

348
00:29:26.000 --> 00:29:32.160
right now. Yeah, yeah,
I ordered it from Amazon UK. Will

349
00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:34.839
is pointing out that you have a
review of Affliction on your website from ninety

350
00:29:34.880 --> 00:29:37.799
seven, and he says, I
wonder if your take on it has changed

351
00:29:37.839 --> 00:29:41.720
in thirty years. That has to
be one of the earliest reviews that I

352
00:29:41.799 --> 00:29:48.279
have that hasn't been lost. And
I'm horrified if you read that, because

353
00:29:48.279 --> 00:29:52.640
it's probably not very good. I
would be curious to see too. What

354
00:29:52.000 --> 00:29:55.920
you know my opinion has changed in
the last thirty years because I gave it

355
00:29:55.960 --> 00:30:02.240
four stars back then. Wow,
all right, so mine I got into

356
00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:07.039
from the buy to get one target
thing that they were doing, and like

357
00:30:07.079 --> 00:30:10.720
I said, one of them was
the four K release of Patrick. I

358
00:30:10.759 --> 00:30:17.160
do want to say loving these slim
line Deluxe Indicator packages. This is a

359
00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:21.119
really nice way to save space and
give it its due in a really really

360
00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:25.440
nice package, and liked it so
much, figured i'd pair it with Cold

361
00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:29.279
Eyes of Fear. This is the
other one came out around the same time.

362
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:33.000
These are both four k UHD releases, both numbered, both hard box

363
00:30:33.039 --> 00:30:38.359
releases, both thin compared to their
old kind of giant box single style release.

364
00:30:40.079 --> 00:30:42.559
And then I got two from the
Keno sale that I wanted to highlight

365
00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:48.000
quite a bit because I don't see
these covered very often. They are too

366
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:51.480
I guess you call them box sets
even though they're kind of just in a

367
00:30:51.519 --> 00:30:57.079
single case. This first one is
three discs and it is the Joachim pedro

368
00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:03.079
De Andrade Complete Film a box set. This is one of the major Brazilian

369
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:07.400
filmmakers out there, and very cheap
in the Keno sale, I believe you

370
00:31:07.400 --> 00:31:11.359
can still get it sales still going
on right now. And then the other

371
00:31:11.400 --> 00:31:14.680
one that I've been wanting for years, and I finally was able to get

372
00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:19.279
it, the Jewish Soul ten Classics
of Yiddish Cinema box set. I have

373
00:31:19.359 --> 00:31:27.400
to get that. Yeah. Yeah. On celasts, she had a Keno

374
00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:32.839
sale video yeah last week, and
she was talking about that one. And

375
00:31:33.480 --> 00:31:36.559
because I don't think I was even
familiar with it before I saw that video,

376
00:31:37.000 --> 00:31:40.839
but now I want that it.
Yeah, it looks great, and

377
00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:45.839
it's one of their like slip case
releases, and it's got twenty four page

378
00:31:45.839 --> 00:31:49.200
booklet in side. It's got commentaries, it's got restored versions of films,

379
00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:52.880
it's got alternate versions of films.
It's got ten full films in here,

380
00:31:55.480 --> 00:31:59.960
most maybe all, all of them
in black and white, ranging from nineteen

381
00:32:00.079 --> 00:32:02.519
thirty seven all the way up to
nineteen fifty. I mean, this is

382
00:32:02.599 --> 00:32:08.440
great. Humboldt Whorr says, what's
the third one I got from the Target

383
00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:12.920
sale? A pre order that was
around the same price, and that'll be

384
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:16.039
coming in in a couple weeks,
I believe. Tony says, I'm surprised

385
00:32:16.079 --> 00:32:22.039
you didn't get Snapshot. I'm an
idiot who already has three copies of Snapshot,

386
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:25.079
I think, and didn't need the
four K. I've been trying to

387
00:32:25.119 --> 00:32:30.160
collect those with that packaging. But
Snapshot was one I didn't get just because

388
00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:36.400
I already have the nice vinegar syndrome
version, so I had that one,

389
00:32:36.480 --> 00:32:39.400
and I had the eighty eight Films
version, and I think I have an

390
00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:45.359
old DVD from somebody to too many
releases of it. It's a good film,

391
00:32:45.359 --> 00:32:53.000
but I love the alternate title the
Day after Halloween and it's like set

392
00:32:53.039 --> 00:33:01.160
in the summer. Yeah, yeah, alright. Anything else that you want

393
00:33:01.160 --> 00:33:04.920
to bring up before we head into
our announcements for the week, sir,

394
00:33:05.359 --> 00:33:09.000
nothing, I think we're good.
Last thing I'll say everybody should check out

395
00:33:09.079 --> 00:33:12.599
Dustin's book. I know I've already
said at the beginning, but I know

396
00:33:12.640 --> 00:33:15.720
we've picked up viewers since then.
Link for his book is in the description

397
00:33:15.799 --> 00:33:22.119
below, followed Dustin Facebook, Instagram, everywhere. He is great. Craig

398
00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:24.680
just got his Departed four case shipped. I'm eager to check that one out

399
00:33:24.720 --> 00:33:30.480
again. I was just talking about
that earlier today actually, but now we

400
00:33:30.559 --> 00:33:36.640
get to talk about mister Orson Wells. First release of the week, June

401
00:33:36.640 --> 00:33:42.079
eleventh, Keno is releasing Orson Wells's
Macbeth from nineteen forty eight. This is

402
00:33:42.240 --> 00:33:45.279
going to be a pretty big release
for them. Two discs special edition,

403
00:33:45.359 --> 00:33:50.759
including the original nineteen forty eight two
hour cuts replete with overture, exit music

404
00:33:50.759 --> 00:33:55.119
and affected Highland burrs, and then
the nineteen fifty paired down eighty five minute

405
00:33:55.160 --> 00:34:00.960
re release which xcized most of the
accented acts dialogue. We've got a new

406
00:34:01.000 --> 00:34:07.519
audio commentary by Tim Freakin' Lucas.
We also got an audio commentary by Joseph

407
00:34:07.559 --> 00:34:12.119
McBride, who had did the biography
of Orson Wells. We've got some archival

408
00:34:12.159 --> 00:34:15.480
stuff, but I'm sure this is
one Dustin's gonna have a lot to talk

409
00:34:15.519 --> 00:34:19.199
about. Well, I haven't seen
it, but I absolutely need it.

410
00:34:21.199 --> 00:34:24.400
Yeah, I've seen the I've seen
the Roman Polanski version of McBeth, and

411
00:34:24.480 --> 00:34:30.239
I've seen the Joel Cohen Macbeth,
but I haven't seen the Orson Wells one.

412
00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:32.920
And yeah, I was actually I
was looking back to see if it

413
00:34:32.960 --> 00:34:37.960
had been previously released, and it
had, so I think this is just

414
00:34:38.559 --> 00:34:43.639
you know, with a slip and
yeah, a new restoration. So yeah,

415
00:34:43.679 --> 00:34:45.360
since I don't have the other ones, I definitely would like to get

416
00:34:45.400 --> 00:34:51.119
this one. The previous release was
by all of and it's got. I

417
00:34:51.119 --> 00:34:54.159
think it was one of their very
early releases, like twenty twelve or thirteen,

418
00:34:54.599 --> 00:34:59.199
So just the restoration on this loan
would have made this a pretty great

419
00:34:59.280 --> 00:35:02.960
upgrade. Yeah, there's gonna be
a solid release. I'm glad and anything

420
00:35:04.000 --> 00:35:09.400
that Tim Lucas is involved in.
I like to watch Bingo. Next on

421
00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:15.039
our list is Sting July ninth,
coming on Blu Ray from Wilgo. We

422
00:35:15.119 --> 00:35:17.920
know nothing about special features, but
this is one of the brand new films.

423
00:35:17.960 --> 00:35:21.480
I feel like I remember seeing you
had seen this one? Is this

424
00:35:21.519 --> 00:35:27.480
one you saw? No? I
have not seen dang uh eager to see

425
00:35:27.519 --> 00:35:30.639
this. I'm sorry to cut you
off, but I just remembered one.

426
00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:36.519
One thing that I do want to
quickly mention is that I just saw Abigail

427
00:35:36.599 --> 00:35:40.880
tonight. Oh how was it?
I totally forgot? So maybe that tells

428
00:35:40.920 --> 00:35:46.719
you so it was. I it
was good, but I feel like it

429
00:35:46.760 --> 00:35:53.719
could have been so much better if
they had not given everything away in the

430
00:35:53.719 --> 00:36:00.039
trailer. It's the sort of thing
where you know, for anybody, if

431
00:36:00.079 --> 00:36:05.519
anybody hasn't seen the trailer, be
thankful and try to avoid it and don't

432
00:36:05.519 --> 00:36:10.400
watch. The movie sort of treats
it as a mystery for the first half

433
00:36:10.519 --> 00:36:14.320
about what's going on, and then
when you find out what's going on,

434
00:36:14.360 --> 00:36:19.360
you're like, well, the trailer
already told me that, right, there's

435
00:36:19.400 --> 00:36:22.920
a few other surprises towards the end, so you know, And it's very

436
00:36:23.039 --> 00:36:29.840
I mean, Alisha Weir who plays
the little girl Abigail, she's excellent in

437
00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:35.119
it. She sort of reminded me
of Kirsten Dunst in Interview with the Vampire,

438
00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:40.000
that sort of it gave me that
sort of vibe. And and Catherine

439
00:36:40.039 --> 00:36:45.079
Newton was in it, and she's
having a really good year with Lisa Frankenstein

440
00:36:45.119 --> 00:36:47.280
and now this she's really good in
it. Yeah, I just wanted to

441
00:36:47.320 --> 00:36:52.000
say that to sorry to go back
to what I just recently seen, but

442
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:55.639
I wanted to mention that because I
just saw you're totally fine. I wanted

443
00:36:55.679 --> 00:36:59.920
to know so that that's a good, good call there. But yees STI

444
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:02.440
looks decent. I'm a fan of
some of the Spider movies that have come

445
00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:07.000
out, and i'd be here to
check this out. Well. Go kind

446
00:37:07.039 --> 00:37:13.119
of like quietly doing pretty damn great
over the last year or so, like

447
00:37:13.360 --> 00:37:16.400
getting releases for stuff that usually would
never get a release, So I'm very

448
00:37:16.440 --> 00:37:20.920
happy to see stuff like this happening. Yeah, I was surprised how how

449
00:37:20.960 --> 00:37:29.320
wide it went in theaters. Yeah, absolutely surprised. Next up, Magic

450
00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:32.760
Mike. Yes, that Magic Mike
is coming on four K on May fourteen

451
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:37.760
for Warner Brothers, Dustin, how
do you feel about Magic Mike? I

452
00:37:37.760 --> 00:37:42.960
actually like it, and I'm probably
in the minority that I prefer it over

453
00:37:43.000 --> 00:37:45.320
the second one. I know a
lot of people think the second one's better.

454
00:37:47.000 --> 00:37:50.519
It's more of a comedy, whereas
the first one is more of like

455
00:37:50.559 --> 00:37:58.000
a slice of life of Yeah,
these strippers, but I would totally get

456
00:37:58.079 --> 00:38:01.320
this. But I'm just they finished
the trilogy, so why not why not

457
00:38:01.400 --> 00:38:05.760
make like a box set with all
three of them? Right? Right?

458
00:38:07.280 --> 00:38:15.639
But maybe someday, hopefully we shall
see. Next title is also for Warner

459
00:38:15.679 --> 00:38:20.159
Brothers. They are putting out twelve
Strong. Whoops, tap that twice twelve

460
00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:22.960
Strong on four K on May fourteenth
as well. This is the Chris Hemsworth

461
00:38:24.039 --> 00:38:28.599
war movie that I for some reason, I don't know if it's just me,

462
00:38:28.679 --> 00:38:30.880
I was immune to it. Nothing
about the marketing for this movie ever

463
00:38:30.960 --> 00:38:34.960
captured me. I just said,
yeah, I don't, I don't have

464
00:38:35.119 --> 00:38:38.559
any desire to see this all.
So yeah, I have the Blu ray

465
00:38:38.599 --> 00:38:43.039
of it and had never watched it, and so when I saw this was

466
00:38:43.079 --> 00:38:45.480
announced, I decided to watch it. So I this was another one that

467
00:38:45.519 --> 00:38:50.800
I watched this week, and I'm
glad that I did because it told me

468
00:38:50.840 --> 00:38:57.599
that I do not need the four
K not great, huh. I haven't

469
00:38:57.639 --> 00:39:01.480
thought about it since I saw it, so that checks out, Sorry to

470
00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:08.280
remind you. Then, next one, this is pretty huge Imprint getting their

471
00:39:08.320 --> 00:39:14.280
next TV release July seventeenth. They're
doing The Persuaders, the complete series from

472
00:39:14.320 --> 00:39:17.559
nineteen seventy one, and just like
all of their TV releases, it is

473
00:39:20.199 --> 00:39:22.360
I don't even know like the right
word to use here, Like overwhelming,

474
00:39:22.519 --> 00:39:27.199
I guess would be a good good
word. This is a twelve disc set

475
00:39:27.239 --> 00:39:32.000
with all twenty four digitally restored episodes, all eight of the feature film versions,

476
00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:37.199
and then a gold class lineup of
special features, including so many to

477
00:39:37.280 --> 00:39:42.840
list that I literally can't even put
like a third of them in the Instagram

478
00:39:42.880 --> 00:39:45.559
post. And then they've got a
bonus disc in here featuring the original cuts

479
00:39:45.599 --> 00:39:52.320
of the four feature films. This
is beyond stacked. This is just everything

480
00:39:52.320 --> 00:39:58.880
you could possibly fit. This is
massive. Yeah. When I saw this

481
00:39:59.039 --> 00:40:05.039
was announced, decided to watch the
entire series this week. Now just kidding,

482
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:12.199
No, I didn't go that far. Maybe next time, Dustin you

483
00:40:12.280 --> 00:40:15.840
let us all down. How many
of the feature film version? I'm just

484
00:40:15.920 --> 00:40:21.079
kidding. Had you ever seen this
at all? I've never heard of this,

485
00:40:22.000 --> 00:40:24.000
so I had not either. I
watched the trailer. Looks pretty damn

486
00:40:24.039 --> 00:40:28.599
great. A lot of the stuff
that Imprint has done has been more of

487
00:40:28.639 --> 00:40:31.880
like the British film variety, like
the Avengers that they did. I gotta

488
00:40:31.960 --> 00:40:37.639
admit I got the Avengers in and
loved it way more than expected. I

489
00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:42.719
have a feeling this would probably be
about on the same path. I'm eager

490
00:40:42.760 --> 00:40:46.079
to see it. It looks very
good. But Imprint stuff, when they're

491
00:40:46.119 --> 00:40:51.480
doing TV, it is not a
joke. If you're even like partly interested

492
00:40:51.559 --> 00:40:53.920
in the TV stuff that they're putting
out, you might wanna. You might

493
00:40:53.960 --> 00:40:59.559
want to jump on it because these
are like definitive sets for these film or

494
00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:06.519
TV. I guess it looks like
a great package. Sure does. Next,

495
00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:13.079
Pino announced a brand new two K
remaster coming on Blu Ray of Repossessed.

496
00:41:13.679 --> 00:41:17.480
Now, this was I believe leaked
a couple of years ago to supposedly

497
00:41:17.559 --> 00:41:22.159
be coming from Vestron. It was
never it was never officially announced, and

498
00:41:22.199 --> 00:41:28.079
then this came out and Keno is
working on it. It's again one of

499
00:41:28.119 --> 00:41:30.639
those things where we don't have a
release date, so who knows when,

500
00:41:30.159 --> 00:41:36.920
but Repossessed finally getting a Blu Ray
release for everybody that's dying to see it.

501
00:41:37.199 --> 00:41:42.519
How do you feel about Repossessed,
Dustin? Well, yeah, when

502
00:41:43.639 --> 00:41:47.599
when you had posted about this announcement, there was someone in the comments who,

503
00:41:47.639 --> 00:41:52.239
of course said why do we need
this on Blu Ray and you said

504
00:41:52.280 --> 00:41:55.239
because, I guess, well,
for nostalgia of purpose is because a lot

505
00:41:55.280 --> 00:41:59.880
of people really enjoy it. And
that's definitely for me. Like I think

506
00:41:59.880 --> 00:42:01.639
I was growing up at the exact
time that this came out, and it

507
00:42:01.679 --> 00:42:05.480
was perfect for me. And I
was a fan of the Exorcist anyway,

508
00:42:06.119 --> 00:42:09.840
So I mean, I can't even
remember when this one was being filmed and

509
00:42:10.760 --> 00:42:15.960
Entertainment Tonight was covering it, and
I like couldn't believe that Linda Blair was

510
00:42:16.000 --> 00:42:20.719
back and you know it was a
spoof and Leslie Nielsen was in it,

511
00:42:20.760 --> 00:42:23.719
and you know, I can't say
you know, it's probably been twenty years

512
00:42:23.719 --> 00:42:29.199
since I've seen it now, so
I'm curious to watch it again to see

513
00:42:29.199 --> 00:42:31.840
how it holds up. But I
definitely have that nostalgia factor for it,

514
00:42:32.679 --> 00:42:37.360
so yeah, I'll definitely be picking
it up though, So we definitely the

515
00:42:37.440 --> 00:42:42.639
Sulu. It was definitely needed on
Blu Ray. I gotta admit it was

516
00:42:42.639 --> 00:42:45.920
a funny timing thing. I can't
remember it was the exact same day,

517
00:42:45.960 --> 00:42:52.199
but right around here I think it
was a paramount announced a reboot of a

518
00:42:52.440 --> 00:42:55.960
very I'm not even gonna go down
the path, but like you're rebooting something

519
00:42:57.000 --> 00:43:00.519
that's very near and dear to Leslie
Nielsen after he's gone. Uh, kind

520
00:43:00.519 --> 00:43:05.840
of hurt a little bit. But
either way, I'm glad that somebody will

521
00:43:05.920 --> 00:43:09.519
love it, and hopefully that excites
more people into checking out the originals.

522
00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:15.119
H Craig says Blu Ray will at
least get us close to what it was

523
00:43:15.159 --> 00:43:17.960
supposed to look like originally, perfect
example of a film that doesn't need a

524
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:23.280
four K release though. That is
true, and yet if you look at

525
00:43:23.280 --> 00:43:27.159
the comments on Facebook, you will
see seven people that will argue with you.

526
00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:37.559
I mean, whenever anybody yeah comments
about you know who who was asking

527
00:43:37.599 --> 00:43:40.760
for this on Blue ray or who
needs this? I feel like everything deserves

528
00:43:40.800 --> 00:43:45.519
to be on Blue ray, just
for the preservation alone. Like I don't

529
00:43:45.559 --> 00:43:51.239
know everybody, it's someone's favorite.
I think I've heard that before. I've

530
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:57.119
tried to stop saying that as much. Next this one came a little out

531
00:43:57.159 --> 00:43:59.480
of nowhere, and I'm actually very
curious to see if you've seen this.

532
00:44:00.440 --> 00:44:06.239
Media OCD, which is a company
that was attached to some discothech releases.

533
00:44:06.800 --> 00:44:12.480
They're putting out their own deluxe edition
of Too Much Sleep. This is a

534
00:44:12.519 --> 00:44:15.719
film from nineteen ninety seven, is
coming on Blu Ray on May seventh.

535
00:44:15.119 --> 00:44:22.840
It is a deadpan comedy film that
is directed by David mckilling. Have you

536
00:44:22.920 --> 00:44:27.840
seen this? I have not.
I had never even heard of this before

537
00:44:27.840 --> 00:44:30.360
this announcement. Yeah, I hadn't
either, but yeah, just reading the

538
00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:36.000
synopsis, I was very intrigued by
it. So we'll pass that info along

539
00:44:36.039 --> 00:44:38.199
for everybody. It says Jack is
stuck in neutral. He lives with his

540
00:44:38.280 --> 00:44:42.239
mom in suburban New Jersey, works
as a security guard, and can barely

541
00:44:42.239 --> 00:44:45.000
get out of bed in the morning. All that changes when he sees a

542
00:44:45.039 --> 00:44:49.599
cute girl on the bus and then
realizes seconds later that his gun is missing.

543
00:44:50.119 --> 00:44:52.599
Desperate to find it, he enlists
the help of a fast talking,

544
00:44:52.639 --> 00:44:55.679
middle aged maybe gangster named Eddie,
who sends Jack on an epic quest to

545
00:44:55.760 --> 00:45:00.199
explore the darkest, strangest corners of
American suburbia. Well Jack ever find his

546
00:45:00.280 --> 00:45:04.199
gun, or, better yet,
maybe that cute girl from the bus.

547
00:45:05.719 --> 00:45:12.599
This sounds pretty damn interesting and very
out of nowhere to have this random new

548
00:45:12.639 --> 00:45:16.400
boutique putting this up here. So
is this their first release as far as

549
00:45:16.440 --> 00:45:21.000
I can tell, Yes, they've
helped with other releases, but this is

550
00:45:21.039 --> 00:45:28.079
the first one I believe that they
specifically are putting out under media. OCD

551
00:45:29.719 --> 00:45:31.880
Humboldt says, watch the trailer and
it looks interesting. Craig says, I've

552
00:45:31.920 --> 00:45:39.320
heard of this. Yeah, Next
up here is a big one. Keno

553
00:45:39.599 --> 00:45:45.159
announced a little Nick Cage movie called
Snake Eyes, coming on four K at

554
00:45:45.159 --> 00:45:51.119
some point. Again, no release
dates. This is great though, any

555
00:45:51.320 --> 00:45:54.960
more DiPalma movies is a win in
my book. I don't understand why this

556
00:45:55.000 --> 00:45:59.119
one's always got a little bit of
hate, But how do you feel about

557
00:45:59.119 --> 00:46:04.119
Snake Eyes? Dush, It's definitely
grown grown on me over time. I

558
00:46:04.159 --> 00:46:08.039
remember when I saw it when it
came to theaters and wasn't the biggest fan

559
00:46:08.079 --> 00:46:14.199
of it, although I absolutely love
the opening scene. It's like this really

560
00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:22.280
long ten or fifteen minute one shot
and it's just amazing as it follows the

561
00:46:22.400 --> 00:46:30.519
Nicholas Cage character through this arena.
Very well done and very DiPalma esque.

562
00:46:30.840 --> 00:46:35.440
But yeah, I've seen it several
times since then and definitely like it now.

563
00:46:35.800 --> 00:46:38.800
And yeah, I'm very happy that
it's getting a four K. I

564
00:46:38.840 --> 00:46:44.239
know a lot of people are hoping
that there might be deleted scenes finally,

565
00:46:44.280 --> 00:46:49.920
because apparently there was some famous original
ending that had to do with like the

566
00:46:50.039 --> 00:46:54.840
hurricane outside that's going on or something. But you know, even if we

567
00:46:54.880 --> 00:47:00.280
don't get it, I'm happy that
this is coming up. Yeah, this

568
00:46:59.880 --> 00:47:02.760
is this is a big one.
There are still lots of to Palma films

569
00:47:02.760 --> 00:47:08.320
that we could have decent releases for, especially some of the more modern stuff

570
00:47:08.320 --> 00:47:12.280
from to Palma. I know that
those get overlooked quite a bit, but

571
00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:16.159
I really wish somebody just took took
a little bit of a leap and got

572
00:47:16.159 --> 00:47:21.320
some more eyes on those movies.
It's it's crazy that we have somebody like

573
00:47:21.440 --> 00:47:24.960
Brian to Palma, and movies come
out and they just literally get forgotten,

574
00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:29.960
and it's like this, this is
the guy that made carry and we're just

575
00:47:30.039 --> 00:47:34.840
kind of turning our back up.
What do we do it? Yeah,

576
00:47:34.880 --> 00:47:40.960
exactly, couch Uh, Craig,
This is not the cover art, by

577
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:45.119
the way, Craig says, glad
we got the entire movie poster building block

578
00:47:45.159 --> 00:47:47.719
on the cover art. This is
just literally the poster. This will come

579
00:47:47.840 --> 00:47:57.559
later. We'll find out what the
cover is eventually. Next up Criterion.

580
00:47:58.400 --> 00:48:00.719
We got a lot to talk about
with Critter this week or this month,

581
00:48:00.719 --> 00:48:06.440
i should say rather. First off, a huge month for Criterion. I'm

582
00:48:06.440 --> 00:48:08.880
sure most people would agree, although
I did see a couple of people with

583
00:48:08.960 --> 00:48:15.360
the whole nothing for me this month
about criterions, like, well there's some

584
00:48:15.559 --> 00:48:21.000
classics, let's not talk like that. I'm so tired of people like that

585
00:48:21.039 --> 00:48:25.119
who just like to whine about everything
just because you're not interested and something doesn't

586
00:48:25.159 --> 00:48:31.599
mean other people are. Yeah,
I don't understand, especially with a month

587
00:48:31.679 --> 00:48:37.280
like this. Ak you how you
can see everything that they've I won't say

588
00:48:37.280 --> 00:48:39.719
fixed, because they solve a lot
of problems, but they've turned the Tide

589
00:48:39.760 --> 00:48:44.000
on four K, and we have
a month where literally everything is four K

590
00:48:44.199 --> 00:48:47.800
except for one release, and it's
one that already came out from a boutique

591
00:48:47.840 --> 00:48:52.400
label that is attached to Radiance,
So a lot of people might already have

592
00:48:52.440 --> 00:48:54.559
that other film already on Blu Ray. But either way, this is a

593
00:48:54.920 --> 00:48:59.679
massive month, so let's get into
it. First off, July second,

594
00:49:00.119 --> 00:49:06.079
four K and Blu Ray release of
Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid from nineteen

595
00:49:06.119 --> 00:49:09.199
seventy three, a peck and Pop
film. I forgot to check. I

596
00:49:09.199 --> 00:49:13.079
don't remembers. Somebody in the chat
correct me if I'm wrong, or Dustin

597
00:49:13.119 --> 00:49:15.880
if you know. Is I feel
like this might be the last of the

598
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:17.599
at least the big peck and Paw
movies that we needed on Blu Ray.

599
00:49:17.960 --> 00:49:22.679
I think there might be one more. Yeah, I'm not sure. I

600
00:49:22.719 --> 00:49:28.920
can't remember, but this is huge. This is like monumental type of announcement.

601
00:49:30.639 --> 00:49:32.440
Yeah, I'm really curious to see
this. I've never seen this one

602
00:49:32.480 --> 00:49:39.960
before. I know that there was
some some controversy about some cut not being

603
00:49:40.000 --> 00:49:45.800
included or something, but I think
there are three cuts still involved, so

604
00:49:46.320 --> 00:49:51.960
I don't know. The big thing
is, this doesn't have the quote TCM

605
00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:58.360
cut that played on Turner Classic Movies. So this is going to include new

606
00:49:58.360 --> 00:50:02.639
four K digital restoration of the the
fiftieth anniversary release, supervised by editors Paul

607
00:50:02.719 --> 00:50:07.280
Sator and Roger Spottiswood. We've got
a new four K digital restoration of the

608
00:50:07.280 --> 00:50:12.519
original theatrical release, which is pretty
damn cool. We got an audio commentary

609
00:50:12.519 --> 00:50:16.960
for the fiftieth anniversary release featuring Sadr
Spottiswood, and then adding in critic Michael

610
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:23.519
Sregau. Two four KUHD discs of
the films presented with Dolby Vision HDR two

611
00:50:23.599 --> 00:50:30.559
Blu rays with the films and special
features. We've got let's see new interview

612
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:35.239
with author Clinton Halen about the film
soundtrack, Peck and Pau's Last Western,

613
00:50:35.320 --> 00:50:38.039
a new program about the making of
the film on archival, interview with James

614
00:50:38.079 --> 00:50:42.679
Coburn, trailer and TV spots,
and then an essay by author and critic

615
00:50:42.719 --> 00:50:46.199
Steve Ericsson. And one thing to
note, this is not like the already

616
00:50:46.199 --> 00:50:52.159
four k's on this slate. This
one is actually going to be a seventy

617
00:50:52.199 --> 00:50:57.480
dollars MSRP release rather than fifty,
so instead of the normal on sale twenty

618
00:50:57.480 --> 00:51:00.840
five. This will be thirty five
on sale, and then specifically it's because

619
00:51:00.840 --> 00:51:09.320
it's a four disc release. So
yeah, huge release. Uh, Peck

620
00:51:09.400 --> 00:51:16.400
and Paw, how do you feel
about packing Paw? I? Well,

621
00:51:17.400 --> 00:51:21.840
I've seen a few of his movies. I've seen Straw Dogs and Bring Me

622
00:51:21.880 --> 00:51:25.960
the Head of Alfredo Garcia, but
I really feel like he's one of those

623
00:51:25.960 --> 00:51:30.280
sort of blind spots for me where
I haven't seen a lot of his films.

624
00:51:30.920 --> 00:51:34.920
Yeah, so I really and even
those two that I mentioned, it's

625
00:51:34.960 --> 00:51:37.199
been years since I've seen them,
so I'd really like to to do a

626
00:51:37.280 --> 00:51:42.440
revisit on those and check out more
of his stuff. And yeah, this

627
00:51:42.480 --> 00:51:45.840
looks like a great release. I'm
sure I'll be picking this one up.

628
00:51:45.800 --> 00:51:50.320
So Dude, McMahon says, there's
a cookie cutter Western from the sixties that

629
00:51:50.480 --> 00:51:53.360
VCI has on DVD, but this
is the last big one that we didn't

630
00:51:53.400 --> 00:51:59.719
have on Blu Ray, so that
is awesome. Uh. Will is saying

631
00:51:59.719 --> 00:52:04.000
that they're there's a commentary stuck on
the DVD that includes Nick Redman that was

632
00:52:04.079 --> 00:52:09.000
not poured it over, obviously interesting. Yes, Spaghetti says it's already on

633
00:52:09.000 --> 00:52:13.159
Blu Ray, but I would totally
take an updated Wild Bunch. I hope

634
00:52:13.159 --> 00:52:15.519
we get that. I think that's
Warner, and I think that's one of

635
00:52:15.599 --> 00:52:22.280
the main reasons why we don't have
that four K of that one, when

636
00:52:22.400 --> 00:52:27.760
that would be a good question.
Next one, another stone cold classic Le

637
00:52:27.880 --> 00:52:30.800
Samurai from nineteen sixty seven. This
one's coming on four K on July ninth,

638
00:52:30.840 --> 00:52:36.320
and even comes with updated art.
This one's a little different than the

639
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:39.920
blue ray art obviously, and we've
got special features all over this one.

640
00:52:42.079 --> 00:52:45.079
Le Samurai. How do you feel
about this one? They're dustin. This

641
00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:50.559
is another I haven't seen, but
I absolutely love that cover. Yeah,

642
00:52:50.639 --> 00:52:54.360
this is this is a pretty dang
good cover on this one. And yeah,

643
00:52:54.360 --> 00:52:59.000
I tried to because I do have
the Blu ray of it and I

644
00:52:59.119 --> 00:53:01.800
just haven't gotten around to watching it
yet. So I tried to watch this

645
00:53:01.800 --> 00:53:06.960
one too, but I just didn't
have time. You don't say over everything

646
00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:09.159
else that you've been watching. Yeah, I'm gonna be honest, I've never

647
00:53:09.199 --> 00:53:13.199
seen this one either. I've meant
to watch this, meant to watch this

648
00:53:13.280 --> 00:53:15.719
for a long time, specifically because
friend of the channel, Hunter Robinson,

649
00:53:15.719 --> 00:53:20.559
that's been on the channel multiple times. I believe this is his favorite film

650
00:53:20.559 --> 00:53:23.280
of all time, and he's been
gushing about it for so long. I'm

651
00:53:23.360 --> 00:53:27.000
dying to see it. And Hunter's
coming back on the channel here soon,

652
00:53:27.119 --> 00:53:30.280
so maybe I can get it watched
before he's here. Yeah, this one

653
00:53:30.280 --> 00:53:35.599
looks great, looks like a solid
release again, an absolute stone cold classic,

654
00:53:35.920 --> 00:53:39.599
one that absolutely nobody should be deriding. As a release from Criterion.

655
00:53:39.800 --> 00:53:46.280
It's as John Piter Millville come on
then, Perfect Days one that somebody else

656
00:53:46.360 --> 00:53:51.760
already brought up in this episode.
Vin Vendor's Perfect Days coming to four K

657
00:53:51.840 --> 00:53:57.760
blu ray and DVD from Criterion on
July sixteenth. Very new film from a

658
00:53:58.239 --> 00:54:01.480
very big tour. Obviously, this
one has a four K digital master.

659
00:54:01.800 --> 00:54:06.599
This one will also have HDR on
the disc. They don't say Dolby Vision,

660
00:54:06.639 --> 00:54:09.960
so it's probably only EHDR ten.
There's a new interview with Wender with

661
00:54:10.320 --> 00:54:15.079
VIM Vendors. On this interview with
the actor Koji Yakusho, there is a

662
00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:19.880
short by VIM Vendors featuring a new
introduction by the director, and then an

663
00:54:19.880 --> 00:54:23.119
interview with producer Cogi and I,
founder of the Tokyo Toilet Project, and

664
00:54:23.119 --> 00:54:29.480
an essay by film critic Bill Jabiri. Perfect Days I've not been able to

665
00:54:29.519 --> 00:54:31.679
see this yet. I know you've
gushed once, why don't you tell us

666
00:54:31.760 --> 00:54:38.320
about Perfect Days? They're dustin Well, it's I mean, in a nutshell,

667
00:54:38.360 --> 00:54:44.480
it's the most beautiful film you'll ever
see about a sanitation worker. It's

668
00:54:44.719 --> 00:54:51.960
just it follows him day to day
through his life, basically, you know,

669
00:54:52.039 --> 00:55:00.360
going to clean all of the public
restrooms throughout Tokyo and Yogi. What

670
00:55:00.519 --> 00:55:07.400
is his name, Koji Yakusha.
He won the Best Actor award at cann

671
00:55:07.480 --> 00:55:14.039
last year, and I'm shocked that
he wasn't talked about for any awards this

672
00:55:14.079 --> 00:55:16.400
year as far as like the Oscars
or anything. He is extraordinary in this

673
00:55:17.880 --> 00:55:22.599
The last you know, without giving
anything away, the very last shot of

674
00:55:22.639 --> 00:55:29.840
the movie, it's basically just a
close up on his face for an extended

675
00:55:29.840 --> 00:55:34.199
period of time, and the amount
that he says without saying anything at all

676
00:55:34.360 --> 00:55:40.559
is just mind blowing. But it's
it's such a beautiful movie. And ever

677
00:55:40.599 --> 00:55:45.199
since I saw it, I've also
had the Lou Reed's song Perfect Day stuck

678
00:55:45.239 --> 00:55:52.079
in my head. I absolutely love
that song and and it plays a pretty

679
00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:57.960
pivotal part in the movie. So
I highly recommend this one. It's it's

680
00:55:58.000 --> 00:56:02.039
it's it's a really good one.
July sixteenth. Like I said, next

681
00:56:02.079 --> 00:56:07.760
up July sixteenth, Blu ray and
DVD release from Criterion, Black God,

682
00:56:07.960 --> 00:56:13.840
White Devil. As I mentioned,
this one was previously released by Maywou Films

683
00:56:13.920 --> 00:56:17.400
over in the UK. They are
a hosted label with Radiance, so you

684
00:56:17.400 --> 00:56:22.760
can get this through the Radiance Film
site. I believe Orbit was carrying this

685
00:56:22.800 --> 00:56:24.760
for a while. You can probably
still get it through them. If it

686
00:56:24.800 --> 00:56:30.800
wasn't selling, Orbit might have stopped
importing it. But this is one that

687
00:56:30.000 --> 00:56:36.480
is supposed to be a seminal,
amazing, ridiculously great, fantastic release from

688
00:56:36.519 --> 00:56:40.719
nineteen sixty four. I should probably
watch this soon. It sounds like it'd

689
00:56:40.719 --> 00:56:44.599
be perfect for me. I will
say. The hard part is if you

690
00:56:44.800 --> 00:56:49.760
have the Maywu release and this one
is one that you love. This does

691
00:56:49.880 --> 00:56:52.800
have some different special features, so
you might feel compelled to pick up both.

692
00:56:53.480 --> 00:57:00.400
But I gotta say I adore the
cover art on this one. Like

693
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:06.639
a ridiculously great release. Just really
really suggests people look into this one.

694
00:57:06.719 --> 00:57:09.639
Check it out from either MAYWEO or
Criterion. Obviously MAYWEU could probably use your

695
00:57:09.679 --> 00:57:14.519
money a little more than Criterion,
but either way, support film, give

696
00:57:14.519 --> 00:57:17.800
it a watch. Any thoughts?
Did you pick up the Mayweo one on

697
00:57:17.840 --> 00:57:22.559
this? No? I did not. Yeah, I don't know anything about

698
00:57:22.559 --> 00:57:28.440
this before this announcement, but this
is another one that I'm really interested in.

699
00:57:29.719 --> 00:57:34.400
This is the filmmaker on this bio. The way is Glauber or Rocha's

700
00:57:34.400 --> 00:57:40.480
supposed to be great next release though
this is a big one too. Farewell

701
00:57:40.519 --> 00:57:45.480
My Concubine. This is coming on
four K and Blu Ray July twenty third.

702
00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:51.639
I believe this is only the second
mainland China film that Criterion has put

703
00:57:51.719 --> 00:57:55.719
out something like that. This one
is from nineteen ninety three, and it

704
00:57:55.760 --> 00:58:02.360
says a breathtakingly intimate romance unfolds against
a sweeping backdrop of social upheaval and renowned

705
00:58:02.360 --> 00:58:08.280
director Chen Kaije's sumptuous saga of passion, fate, and the transcendent possibilities of

706
00:58:08.599 --> 00:58:14.519
art, spanning fifty years of twenty
century Chinese history. Farewell My Concubine follows

707
00:58:14.559 --> 00:58:19.880
aspiring actors Daye and Jiaolu as they
emerge from a childhood of brutal training to

708
00:58:19.920 --> 00:58:25.480
become Beijing opera stars, with life
mirroring art as Dae's unrequited love for Jaolu

709
00:58:25.559 --> 00:58:30.960
and the country's changing political tides engulfed
them in their own personal tragedies of jealousy

710
00:58:31.039 --> 00:58:36.159
and betrayal. The first Chinese film
to win the Palm d'Or is epic filmmaking

711
00:58:36.239 --> 00:58:40.320
of the highest order, visually and
emotionally, ravishing from frame to exquisite frame.

712
00:58:42.599 --> 00:58:45.280
This one is coming on four K
and also has a Blu ray with

713
00:58:45.320 --> 00:58:51.400
it. It has new conversations between
Chinese cultural studies scholar Michael Barry and the

714
00:58:51.440 --> 00:58:54.000
producer Janet Yang. A documentary from
two thousand and three on the making of

715
00:58:54.039 --> 00:58:59.519
the film interviewed from ninety three with
the director, conducted by journalist Charlie Rose.

716
00:59:00.320 --> 00:59:05.440
Trailer on this plus an essay by
author and scholar Pauline Chen. I

717
00:59:05.559 --> 00:59:07.920
have still yet been able to see
this one, Dustin, have you seen

718
00:59:07.960 --> 00:59:14.880
this one? I saw it when
it when it first came to video,

719
00:59:15.159 --> 00:59:20.679
so I was probably like eleven or
twelve. This is fully appropriate for eleven

720
00:59:20.719 --> 00:59:23.320
or twelve year old, but and
I don't remember too much about it,

721
00:59:23.360 --> 00:59:27.960
but I remember it was very buzzy
when it came out. It was very

722
00:59:27.960 --> 00:59:35.639
acclaimed, and I I remember enjoying
it, but I mean, you know,

723
00:59:37.159 --> 00:59:40.599
I'd be very curious to revisit it
because it's been so long, and

724
00:59:40.639 --> 00:59:45.119
I'm sure my tastes have completely changed
since I was eleven or twelve so well,

725
00:59:45.159 --> 00:59:49.599
and the images I've seen from this
one, this one screams for a

726
00:59:49.599 --> 00:59:52.800
great looking four K, so I'm
hoping that they make this one look gorgeous.

727
00:59:52.920 --> 00:59:55.800
I wish there was Doloby vision.
I'm not even seeing any mention of

728
00:59:55.920 --> 01:00:00.400
HDR unless they've updated the listing since
I posted the announcement, so hopefully it

729
01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:07.760
looks great. Finally, this is
a big one. July twenty third on

730
01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:15.480
four km blu Ray. Criterion is
releasing Risky Business. Yes, Tom Cruise's

731
01:00:15.000 --> 01:00:21.920
Risky Business, and uh man,
the amount of people that I saw I

732
01:00:21.960 --> 01:00:29.320
saw complaint that Criterion would go so
low to release Risky Business. How do

733
01:00:29.360 --> 01:00:32.320
you feel about that argument? Dad? Justin Well, by my face,

734
01:00:32.440 --> 01:00:37.760
you probably know that I don't feel
that way. I read that this was

735
01:00:37.039 --> 01:00:40.480
Tom Cruise's first film that's been in
the Criterion collection. Is that true?

736
01:00:40.760 --> 01:00:46.320
That is one hundred accurate. That's
shocking. I think it's a great movie.

737
01:00:49.880 --> 01:00:54.119
I I probably gravitated growing up I
probably gravitated more towards like the or

738
01:00:54.199 --> 01:00:59.960
the John Hughes types of teens movies, but I definitely really liked this one

739
01:01:00.000 --> 01:01:07.480
one and probably appreciated it even more
when I saw it as an adult.

740
01:01:07.440 --> 01:01:15.039
So and yeah, a four K
restoration and the amount of special features that

741
01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:20.159
are on this, I'm I think
this is a great choice for Criterion.

742
01:01:21.239 --> 01:01:23.599
Well, speaking of extras, let's
talk about that new four K digital restoration

743
01:01:23.760 --> 01:01:29.519
of the director's cut and the original
theatrical release, supervised and approved by the

744
01:01:29.519 --> 01:01:34.039
director Paul Brickman. We've got one
four K disc of the film prevent presented

745
01:01:34.079 --> 01:01:37.800
in Dolby Vision HDR, and a
Blu Ray audio commentary for the theatrical release

746
01:01:37.840 --> 01:01:43.639
featuring Brickman, Abnet, and Tom
Cruise, new interviews with Avnet and casting

747
01:01:43.679 --> 01:01:47.320
director Nancy Klopper, new conversations between
the editor Richard Chew and film His Story

748
01:01:47.360 --> 01:01:52.679
and Bobby Osteen. There is a
Story of Risky Business, a program featuring

749
01:01:52.719 --> 01:01:55.880
interviews with Brickman, Abnet, cast
members and others, some screen tests with

750
01:01:55.920 --> 01:02:00.199
some of the actors, and then
an essay by film curator and critic Dave

751
01:02:00.519 --> 01:02:07.599
care I've always looked at this as
much smarter than people give it credit for.

752
01:02:07.880 --> 01:02:13.239
This is not surprising to me.
This is a pretty solid pick.

753
01:02:13.639 --> 01:02:16.880
Not only that we've seen over the
last couple of years proof that every single

754
01:02:16.920 --> 01:02:22.599
label needs to put out a film
like Risky Business sometimes that will sell very

755
01:02:22.639 --> 01:02:25.599
well on release that they can recoup
some of the cost so that we can

756
01:02:25.679 --> 01:02:30.599
keep getting some of the other obscure
films that we are all dying to see.

757
01:02:30.639 --> 01:02:37.440
So let's not complain. I see
also that there's a comment, like

758
01:02:37.480 --> 01:02:40.360
you said, a commentary that Tom
Cruise is on. I'm assuming that's like

759
01:02:40.360 --> 01:02:45.679
an archival commentary. It doesn't say, but I would bet yes. I

760
01:02:45.800 --> 01:02:49.159
highly doubt Tom Cruise sits down for
two and a half hours to discuss it

761
01:02:49.320 --> 01:02:52.239
in the in the middle of filming
his next Mission Impossible movie that he's been

762
01:02:52.280 --> 01:02:58.960
filming since like twenty nineteen. I
think he's been filming these two films since

763
01:02:59.000 --> 01:03:06.000
twenty nineteen. At this point,
it certainly feels that way. That's a

764
01:03:06.000 --> 01:03:08.199
good comment. Blake. For the
longest time, the only way to get

765
01:03:08.239 --> 01:03:12.800
the Prince Song d ms R n
CD was by buying the Risky Business soundtrack.

766
01:03:13.360 --> 01:03:19.199
Wow, let's see, yes,
dude, says my frustration is still

767
01:03:19.199 --> 01:03:22.199
not having Born on the fourth of
July on four K. But there's this

768
01:03:22.719 --> 01:03:23.960
Obviously, it's just venting. They
got to do what they got to do.

769
01:03:24.039 --> 01:03:29.599
This is their four K answer to
the Armageddon DVD. Kind I feel

770
01:03:29.599 --> 01:03:36.840
like they've gone in a different direction
from Armageddon at least I feel like I

771
01:03:36.840 --> 01:03:39.559
was gonna say, I feel like
if they were gonna put Born on the

772
01:03:39.559 --> 01:03:45.239
fourth of July out that well,
if I feel like they would have to

773
01:03:45.280 --> 01:03:49.320
get the rights to Platoon and Heaven
and Earth and sort of put all three

774
01:03:49.360 --> 01:03:54.239
of them together, because it wasn't
that like Oliver Stone's Vietnam trilogy. I

775
01:03:54.320 --> 01:03:59.320
think so, Yeah, which that
would be an amazing set. If they

776
01:03:59.320 --> 01:04:02.840
were able to do that, it
would and they could fix what's going on.

777
01:04:03.000 --> 01:04:09.719
Eric from MVD rewind Yeah, if
they could fix that really terrible Platoon

778
01:04:09.800 --> 01:04:13.559
four K that's already out there,
that that'd be pretty damn great. I

779
01:04:13.719 --> 01:04:15.679
have that, but I haven't watched
it yet because I've heard so many horror

780
01:04:15.679 --> 01:04:20.840
stories I'm afraid to put it in. I was not talking down on Armageddon,

781
01:04:20.880 --> 01:04:25.840
by the way, I think Armageddon's
fun. Armageddon deserves a four K,

782
01:04:26.000 --> 01:04:31.239
says Simner. All right, go
into our next title. Let's go

783
01:04:31.440 --> 01:04:35.599
over the UK. We've got a
bunch of UK stuff to cover this week.

784
01:04:35.719 --> 01:04:41.519
It was a myriad of UK only
releases out of nowhere. Oh,

785
01:04:41.519 --> 01:04:44.920
there we go, GK Fans says. The commentary is from the twenty fifth

786
01:04:44.920 --> 01:04:50.039
anniversary DVD release. Nice. I
wonder. I'm curious if Tom Cruise has

787
01:04:50.039 --> 01:04:54.039
ever done any other commentaries, or
if that's the only one he's ever done.

788
01:04:54.360 --> 01:05:00.840
Because I killed man, I feel
like he did. He not do

789
01:05:00.920 --> 01:05:04.760
a top gun one at some point, not that I recall, but he

790
01:05:04.840 --> 01:05:12.320
could have very well. All right, let's go. Let's go over to

791
01:05:12.320 --> 01:05:16.119
the UK first. Another big name, Ken Russell's The Music Lovers coming to

792
01:05:16.199 --> 01:05:21.000
Blu Ray on June seventeenth from BFI. This is going to have a new

793
01:05:21.079 --> 01:05:27.760
audio commentary by Matthew Maleia interview with
Alexandra Vernie Elliott from this year. Ken

794
01:05:27.800 --> 01:05:31.199
Russell's son looks back on his father's
work and remembers his own appearance in The

795
01:05:31.320 --> 01:05:36.079
Music Lovers. That's pretty rad.
And then there's a whole bunch of archival

796
01:05:36.119 --> 01:05:40.599
features on here. And then they've
got an illustrated booklet with new writing on

797
01:05:40.639 --> 01:05:45.519
the movie by Matthew malea new essay
by Carolyn Langhorst, and contributions from Alexander,

798
01:05:45.599 --> 01:05:48.599
Vernie Elliott and Lacy Russell. I'm
just glad more Ken Russell is coming

799
01:05:48.599 --> 01:05:58.440
out there in a great release.
Oh he did a video commentary for Jerry

800
01:05:58.480 --> 01:06:02.679
McGuire. Oh I remember that.
Yeah, yep, I've seen that one.

801
01:06:05.119 --> 01:06:09.760
Hum interesting, Uh, Ken Russell, how do you feel about Ken

802
01:06:09.840 --> 01:06:18.039
Russell over all their dustin? Yeah, he's very unusual, very but I

803
01:06:18.199 --> 01:06:21.360
just every time I see a Ken
Russell film coming out, I just always

804
01:06:23.239 --> 01:06:28.960
dream that we're one step closer to
The Devils. I well, and speaking

805
01:06:29.039 --> 01:06:31.519
of BFI, they do have the
best current release of it on DVD,

806
01:06:31.719 --> 01:06:36.480
but yeah, it would be nice
to get an updated thing. But I

807
01:06:36.519 --> 01:06:40.920
guess my question is, I mean, I know there's the controversy involved in

808
01:06:40.960 --> 01:06:45.559
Warner Brothers and all of that,
but if they can put The Devils on

809
01:06:45.360 --> 01:06:51.119
the Criterion streaming channel, why,
like what how is that different than just

810
01:06:51.199 --> 01:06:56.360
putting out a nice Blu ray release
of it? If? If I remember

811
01:06:56.440 --> 01:07:00.639
right, that streaming version was still
the cut version, it was not the

812
01:07:00.760 --> 01:07:05.719
uncut version. I don't think legally
the uncut version has ever been released.

813
01:07:08.440 --> 01:07:11.920
Oh really, Oh I didn't know
that, or if not, it's it's

814
01:07:11.960 --> 01:07:15.880
been a long time. Uh yeah, completely agree with John. I don't

815
01:07:15.920 --> 01:07:19.639
think it's anywhere near as controversial as
people think. Eric says it's because of

816
01:07:19.639 --> 01:07:23.599
money. Yet that's probably a big
part of it. Although you gotta imagine

817
01:07:23.639 --> 01:07:26.119
at this point if they put out, if they put out The Devils,

818
01:07:26.119 --> 01:07:31.280
they would make just huge hand over
fist money. Oh my gosh. That

819
01:07:31.400 --> 01:07:38.920
and also the lift. This is
true. Yes, Ronnie and Tonia both

820
01:07:39.000 --> 01:07:42.719
confirmed that it is the cut version
that was the lift. The keep,

821
01:07:43.719 --> 01:07:46.559
oh the keep, well, that
one supposedly is the the elements are not

822
01:07:46.599 --> 01:07:50.320
good enough to get that upgraded.
HDI thought that is what they said.

823
01:07:51.239 --> 01:07:54.960
I thought that it was just Michael
Man not wanting to put it out or

824
01:07:54.960 --> 01:08:02.760
something. The Devil's bigger, longer
uncut studio's way the cost versus reward,

825
01:08:02.880 --> 01:08:06.239
correct Eric, Yeah, that's a
big thing, but you can't imagine what

826
01:08:06.320 --> 01:08:12.039
the Devil's. The cost would outweigh
the reward for this just just the amount

827
01:08:12.119 --> 01:08:15.319
of positive publicity for the studio alone
would be huge with them putting that out.

828
01:08:16.800 --> 01:08:21.239
I don't know the cut scenes are
in the documentary about it. Yes,

829
01:08:23.960 --> 01:08:27.319
all right, so that is the
Music Lover's next title. They are

830
01:08:27.359 --> 01:08:31.640
also doing Die Monster Die from July
twenty second. Somebody in the comments on

831
01:08:31.720 --> 01:08:35.079
here said, or if you read
this in German, it is the Monster

832
01:08:35.239 --> 01:08:44.119
the So this is coming out.
We've got an audio commentary by Vic Pratt

833
01:08:44.119 --> 01:08:47.119
and William Fowler from this year.
It's a new audio commentary by the founders

834
01:08:47.159 --> 01:08:51.439
of the BFI Flip sideline and authors
of The Bodies Beneath the Flip side of

835
01:08:51.479 --> 01:08:56.520
British Film and Television. They're also
going to be doing some other new extras

836
01:08:56.520 --> 01:08:59.760
for this that they've not confirmed yet. This first pressing will have a booklet

837
01:08:59.840 --> 01:09:05.159
just like most of the others.
Oh geez, Craig says, here's an

838
01:09:05.159 --> 01:09:11.479
offer. We will pay for the
entire restoration of The Devil's manufacturing and distribution,

839
01:09:11.640 --> 01:09:15.920
plus handover fifty percent of revenue for
the rights to put out the film.

840
01:09:16.359 --> 01:09:20.920
All right, Warner, if you're
watching, yeah, get Warner Brothers

841
01:09:20.960 --> 01:09:26.279
on the film. Oh man,
Well, that's that's the frustrating thing.

842
01:09:26.279 --> 01:09:30.239
And we're gonna talk about Warner later
tonight, because Shout had announced some Warner

843
01:09:30.239 --> 01:09:34.319
titles today. Actually, the really
frustrating thing about this is Warner doesn't work

844
01:09:34.479 --> 01:09:40.439
with basically anyone, and then they
decide to work with Shout Factory, and

845
01:09:40.560 --> 01:09:47.279
Shout takes their films and does next
to nothing with it. Eric says he

846
01:09:47.319 --> 01:09:50.479
can tell us why Warner won't do
that? Tell us, Eric, please

847
01:09:50.560 --> 01:09:57.279
tell us. So Yeah, that's
die, Monster Die with Boris Karloff.

848
01:09:58.039 --> 01:10:02.119
Next title is Remember from nineteen eighty
two. This one's coming from BFI as

849
01:10:02.159 --> 01:10:06.279
part of their Flip Side series on
July fifteenth. This is set around the

850
01:10:06.279 --> 01:10:11.359
pubs and clubs of the then notorious
Union Street in nineteen eighty s Plymouth.

851
01:10:11.640 --> 01:10:16.119
Colin Gregg's direction and Hugh Stoddard script
skillfully cuts between the interweaving stories of several

852
01:10:16.239 --> 01:10:20.520
characters as they prepare for the coming
months at sea. The ensemble cast includes

853
01:10:20.520 --> 01:10:26.319
early performances from the likes of Timothy
Spall, John Altman and Gary Oldman.

854
01:10:26.439 --> 01:10:32.359
In his big screen debut or why
most big studios don't license? Please share

855
01:10:32.359 --> 01:10:40.199
away type as fast as you can, Eric, Baby Oldman, Exactly what

856
01:10:40.359 --> 01:10:44.640
is this? This is remembrance?
So on this we're gonna have a newly

857
01:10:44.680 --> 01:10:49.520
remastered from the OCN and presented in
high definition interview with the director from twenty

858
01:10:49.600 --> 01:10:54.880
twenty four, brand new interview with
the director, interview with the screenwriter Hugh

859
01:10:54.920 --> 01:10:58.760
Stoddard, interview with John Altman,
and brand new for this we've got a

860
01:10:58.960 --> 01:11:02.640
nineteen minute fallowing the Daily Lives the
New Naval ratings from their arrival at training

861
01:11:02.720 --> 01:11:08.640
establishment HMS Rawleigh. Will be a
nice little featurette on there, and then

862
01:11:08.680 --> 01:11:11.880
in that first pressing as usual,
they've got a booklet and then they've also

863
01:11:11.920 --> 01:11:17.039
got more extras on the way.
Uh. Any any thoughts on the BFI

864
01:11:17.119 --> 01:11:20.680
releases so far? They're dustin.
I mean, I'm I'm sold just on

865
01:11:20.920 --> 01:11:26.560
it being Gary Oldman's film debut.
That's a big deal, especially for an

866
01:11:26.600 --> 01:11:29.680
actor that most of us have come
to love because he's He's one of those

867
01:11:29.720 --> 01:11:31.880
that you know, blends into every
single character he portrayed. I don't.

868
01:11:31.960 --> 01:11:35.199
I still don't know what he really
looks like because he looks different in every

869
01:11:35.279 --> 01:11:43.239
role. I could pass it on
the street, not not known. That's

870
01:11:43.279 --> 01:11:47.880
really funny. Yeah, the cover
art on these, I I agree there,

871
01:11:47.920 --> 01:11:50.439
Craig. I know it's one of
your big hang ups. It's they're

872
01:11:50.479 --> 01:12:00.479
not super appealing. Unfortunately, next
one BFI is releasing a dry Wine season

873
01:12:00.520 --> 01:12:03.920
from nineteen eighty nine on June seventeenth
on Blu Ray. This had a previous

874
01:12:03.960 --> 01:12:09.800
Criterion release. This does say extras
to be confirmed. No idea if it

875
01:12:09.840 --> 01:12:14.640
will be able to compete with the
Criterion release, but I'm just glad it's

876
01:12:14.680 --> 01:12:19.399
coming out on Blue in another territory. Do you ever see a dry white

877
01:12:19.399 --> 01:12:24.920
season? I have the Criterion and
I haven't watched it. I've not seen

878
01:12:24.960 --> 01:12:28.720
this one. I need to see
it. I'd really love Donald Sutherland.

879
01:12:30.000 --> 01:12:35.039
Yeah, Donald Sutherland is very I
feel like I can say he's underrated because

880
01:12:36.079 --> 01:12:42.039
I believe he's never been even nominated
for an Oscar. I think I read

881
01:12:42.039 --> 01:12:48.960
that and it completely shocks me.
Okay, So Eric says, if a

882
01:12:49.000 --> 01:12:53.920
studio rep in charge of catalog titles
puts a deep catalog out and it doesn't

883
01:12:53.920 --> 01:13:00.680
sell enough copies and it fails,
it could affect their job. But I

884
01:13:00.800 --> 01:13:03.800
really feel like the Devils would sell. The Devils is not one of those

885
01:13:03.840 --> 01:13:11.079
that like that has like a no
fail contract written into it. And then

886
01:13:11.119 --> 01:13:14.479
he says, if a studio rep
license is a deep catalog title to a

887
01:13:14.479 --> 01:13:18.039
boutique company and they do great with
it. Oh God, I'm gonna hate

888
01:13:18.079 --> 01:13:27.920
this next tweet, aren't I?
Oh no, Uh, it could affect

889
01:13:27.920 --> 01:13:30.520
their job because they didn't do it
themselves. Yep. That pisses me off.

890
01:13:31.359 --> 01:13:34.079
So basically, the best thing to
do is to not do anything because

891
01:13:34.079 --> 01:13:39.800
there's no risk because you didn't see
somebody else succeed and you didn't fail.

892
01:13:40.800 --> 01:13:50.399
Yikes. Huh that's a good way
to put it. I mean, yeah,

893
01:13:51.399 --> 01:13:54.560
this is the obvious thing. John
says. It probably would just be

894
01:13:54.600 --> 01:13:59.520
Warner Brothers doing a Devil's four K
themselves. But if if they think that

895
01:13:59.640 --> 01:14:04.880
title too risky, that essentially indicates
no title is worth putting out because that

896
01:14:05.079 --> 01:14:11.880
is literally the most written about We're
dying to see it on physical media title,

897
01:14:11.960 --> 01:14:15.199
and if they're scared to do that
one, then nothing is worth putting

898
01:14:15.199 --> 01:14:26.680
out period. That's that's embarrassing,
all right. Next announcement another BFI,

899
01:14:27.119 --> 01:14:30.199
another one of big names, Heavenly
Pursuits from nineteen eighty six. This is

900
01:14:30.239 --> 01:14:36.399
coming on June seventeenth on Blu Ray
with Helen Mirren and Tom Conti. This

901
01:14:36.479 --> 01:14:41.199
one is supposedly pretty damn great.
I read a little bit on this one

902
01:14:41.239 --> 01:14:44.920
when I posted this. We got
an interview with Tom County from twenty twenty

903
01:14:44.960 --> 01:14:50.880
four. Brand new interview Helen Mirren
speaking on the BFI stage in twenty nineteen.

904
01:14:51.000 --> 01:14:56.239
There's a little interview with her.
There is a thirteen minute short called

905
01:14:56.239 --> 01:15:00.520
The Miracle. There is a nineteen
minute show work called The Science of Miracles.

906
01:15:00.520 --> 01:15:03.560
This is a little featurette from the
BFI archive. And then they got

907
01:15:03.600 --> 01:15:14.119
a BFI booklet in that first pressing. Of course, Eric says he worked

908
01:15:14.119 --> 01:15:16.039
for several maybe yeah, And when
I interviewed Eric, yeah, we talked

909
01:15:16.039 --> 01:15:19.039
about that for just a minute.
Worked for several studios. Seen at firsthand,

910
01:15:19.399 --> 01:15:27.039
it's safer to do nothing good God
well, Eric, since you've worked

911
01:15:27.079 --> 01:15:30.800
in so many boutiques and not to
not to run with this lett. We're

912
01:15:30.840 --> 01:15:33.800
gonna talk about a Warner release coming
in the UK tonight. That's this big,

913
01:15:33.880 --> 01:15:36.800
fancy release of a major title.
Why are they doing it in the

914
01:15:36.920 --> 01:15:41.680
UK and not in the US.
You don't think we're I know which one

915
01:15:41.720 --> 01:15:45.319
you're talking about. You don't think
we're days away from the US version being

916
01:15:45.319 --> 01:15:48.840
announced. I think we'll get one
in the US that will be much less

917
01:15:48.960 --> 01:15:56.439
robust than the UK release, just
like they did with the Exorcist, And

918
01:15:56.479 --> 01:15:59.199
if you're not gonna do it for
the Exorcist, why would they do that

919
01:15:59.720 --> 01:16:08.600
for that title that we're gonna talk
about in a little while. Yeah,

920
01:16:09.119 --> 01:16:14.640
there's so many different questions that we
could go down with the studio route for

921
01:16:14.680 --> 01:16:20.760
sure. Next up, though,
we've got some Umbrella announcements too. August

922
01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:28.319
seventh, four K from Umbrella in
Australia. We've got JSA the Joint Security

923
01:16:28.399 --> 01:16:31.560
Area from two thousand. This one
is a big deal because it's a Park

924
01:16:31.640 --> 01:16:36.600
Chan Wook film JSA. Have you
seen this one there, Dustin, No,

925
01:16:36.720 --> 01:16:43.800
I haven't seen this one. What
about Park chan Wook? I've seen

926
01:16:43.920 --> 01:16:56.159
Old Boy and that's great, and
I've seen did he do what's the title?

927
01:16:56.560 --> 01:16:58.920
Devil is in the title? I'm
trying to think what it is.

928
01:17:00.199 --> 01:17:05.079
Wasn't the title that I can't remember? But I think that he did another

929
01:17:05.119 --> 01:17:12.880
one if anybody knows. I think
devil is in the title. But aside

930
01:17:12.880 --> 01:17:15.600
from those two, I think those
are the only two I've seen. Old

931
01:17:15.600 --> 01:17:20.880
Boys a classic obviously. I highly
recommend JSA. Absolutely love it. It

932
01:17:20.920 --> 01:17:24.960
is really great. I love all
this stuff. Thirst is the bigger one

933
01:17:24.960 --> 01:17:28.800
that I recommend for people. It
is one that definitely needs to be seen

934
01:17:28.840 --> 01:17:32.920
to be believed. That movie is
wild. Yeah, it would be a

935
01:17:32.920 --> 01:17:39.359
good choice. Umbrella is doing some
great stuff. Sadly they stop licensing to

936
01:17:39.479 --> 01:17:45.600
MVD years ago. Yep, Umbrella's
they're making some moves, but unfortunately mostly

937
01:17:45.640 --> 01:17:48.960
in the packaging department. Or are
you talking about I saw the Devil?

938
01:17:49.520 --> 01:17:53.800
Yeah, I saw the Devil.
I think he didn't direct it, I

939
01:17:53.880 --> 01:18:02.000
know, I just looked it up. Yeap, that is ge Woon Kim.

940
01:18:02.039 --> 01:18:06.600
Sorry, I was getting a message
from somebody that might make a quick

941
01:18:06.600 --> 01:18:11.680
appearance in just a little bit as
a surprise. JSA totally worth it.

942
01:18:11.760 --> 01:18:15.079
This one is coming as an Umbrella
web store exclusive. If you get their

943
01:18:15.079 --> 01:18:17.840
giant box set, this one'll have
a forty eight page book featuring essays from

944
01:18:17.880 --> 01:18:23.640
a whole bunch of individuals, custom
art, rigid slipcase, eight art cards,

945
01:18:23.680 --> 01:18:26.560
a reversible poster, and it'll be
a limited copy. And then the

946
01:18:26.600 --> 01:18:30.399
extras. We get a new commentary
with Park chan Wook himself, a new

947
01:18:30.439 --> 01:18:32.760
commentary with Park chan Wook, some
of the actors from the film. We've

948
01:18:32.760 --> 01:18:36.199
got all kinds of archival featurettes,
and then some music videos. If you

949
01:18:36.279 --> 01:18:44.840
love this movie. This is clearly
the definitive release of this. But yeah,

950
01:18:43.840 --> 01:18:46.079
this is a really good release.
I do have the ARA release,

951
01:18:46.119 --> 01:18:54.840
so I'm certainly not gonna grab this
anytime soon. Yeah, love JSA strongly

952
01:18:54.920 --> 01:18:58.680
recommend it. These ones. I've
not seen some of these ones, but

953
01:18:58.720 --> 01:19:02.479
man of these look good. August
seventh, they're releasing Darling from nineteen sixty

954
01:19:02.520 --> 01:19:08.479
five starring Julie Christie. Have you
seen Darling? I have not. Damn,

955
01:19:10.279 --> 01:19:13.359
go ahead, I'm slipping. I
should I should have watched it before.

956
01:19:14.000 --> 01:19:15.960
You can only watch forty movies before
the show. I totally get it.

957
01:19:17.039 --> 01:19:19.199
Yeah, this is another one that
I'm just like, you know,

958
01:19:19.279 --> 01:19:24.880
how have I not seen this before? And I definitely want to. It

959
01:19:25.159 --> 01:19:30.159
looks incredible. Will says, Darling
is the announcement of the week. That

960
01:19:30.399 --> 01:19:40.399
is, Oh that's a lot of
praise. Let me see, I am

961
01:19:40.479 --> 01:19:45.600
spelling Brian's name wrong. This one
is going to have again a forty eight

962
01:19:45.640 --> 01:19:48.720
page book featuring a bunch of essays, eight art cards, original poster,

963
01:19:48.920 --> 01:19:54.600
art slipcase, reversible poster, limited
numbered case, and then a new commentary

964
01:19:54.720 --> 01:20:00.680
by Howard s Berger and Nathaniel Thompson. We've got a piece on Julie Christia,

965
01:20:00.760 --> 01:20:05.000
the sixty Zeitgeist by Professor Melanie Williams, and then Kim Newman on here

966
01:20:05.000 --> 01:20:09.479
to talk about Dirk Boguard. Kim
Newman, how do you feel about Kim

967
01:20:09.520 --> 01:20:14.600
Newman, Douston. Have you watched
much of his stuff? Yes? Yeah,

968
01:20:14.840 --> 01:20:18.439
I love all of the stuff that
Kim Newman does. Kim Newman is

969
01:20:18.479 --> 01:20:26.239
great, and I always liked just
looking wherever he, you know, because

970
01:20:26.239 --> 01:20:30.720
he usually films this stuff. I'm
assuming in his house and I just always

971
01:20:30.760 --> 01:20:40.239
like looking at his bookshelves and all
the books behind all right. Next up

972
01:20:40.279 --> 01:20:45.880
from Umbrella is Dating the Enemy from
nineteen ninety six, and it says Freaky

973
01:20:45.880 --> 01:20:49.119
Friday takes a turn down under in
the beloved rom com Dating the Enemy newly

974
01:20:49.199 --> 01:20:54.720
restored and remastered from the Umbrella Vault
with new written and video extras starring Guy

975
01:20:54.880 --> 01:21:01.159
Pierce and Claudia Carbon as ex lovers
who inexplicably likably switch bodies. This one.

976
01:21:01.199 --> 01:21:04.279
If you get the big chunky package
from them, it'll have a forty

977
01:21:04.319 --> 01:21:10.359
eight page book again, custom art
rigid slipcase, custom art slipcase inside of

978
01:21:10.359 --> 01:21:15.239
that, eight art cards, reversible
poster, numbered edition, new audio commentary

979
01:21:15.279 --> 01:21:20.079
by the director Megan Simpson Sorry Megan
Simpson Huberman and a cinematographer Steve Arnold,

980
01:21:20.239 --> 01:21:25.239
new interview with the actor Matt Day, and then some interviews from nineteen ninety

981
01:21:25.279 --> 01:21:32.880
six. Umbrella just kind of quietly
killing the packaging game. Although every time

982
01:21:32.920 --> 01:21:40.479
when I see this it reminds me
of a ninety sitcom. Yeah, like

983
01:21:40.520 --> 01:21:43.399
that looks you know, like a
like a Will and Grace sort of show

984
01:21:43.520 --> 01:21:47.199
or something. This is the prequel
to Two Guys and Girl in the Pizza

985
01:21:47.239 --> 01:21:51.479
Place, or like Caroline in the
City or something like that. Yes,

986
01:21:54.880 --> 01:21:59.560
I think Chris on Facebook sins I
need food stamps that will work on Umbrella's

987
01:21:59.600 --> 01:22:08.600
website. Oh man, that uh
all right. Love and Other Catastrophes from

988
01:22:08.680 --> 01:22:12.159
nineteen ninety six is the next one
getting a release from them, this says,

989
01:22:12.199 --> 01:22:15.159
Featuring a host of Australian icons including
Kim Oh, how do you say

990
01:22:15.159 --> 01:22:19.399
that? Last name? Ginjel I'm
gonna say, Matt Day, and Rada

991
01:22:19.479 --> 01:22:25.119
Mitchell, the film explores the humorous
and sometimes tumultuous journey of young adulthood and

992
01:22:25.119 --> 01:22:29.840
the quest for love amidst life's catastrophes. This one again forty eight page book

993
01:22:29.880 --> 01:22:33.800
with a bunch of brand new pieces
of essay writing. We've got original poster

994
01:22:33.960 --> 01:22:39.960
arts on the slipcase, original poster
art on the another slipcase on the inside,

995
01:22:40.239 --> 01:22:44.479
eight art cards of reversible poster,
new audio commentary with the director Emma

996
01:22:44.560 --> 01:22:48.439
Kate Krogan, a new interview with
Matt Day. There's so much coming from

997
01:22:48.479 --> 01:22:53.239
them. Yeah, this one I
actually am really looking forward to. I

998
01:22:53.279 --> 01:22:59.479
have seen this one and it's been
a long time, but I remember really

999
01:22:59.560 --> 01:23:02.520
enjoying and I think it was the
first film that I saw Rodi Mitchell in,

1000
01:23:03.720 --> 01:23:08.359
so this was like when she was
still in Australia before she came to

1001
01:23:08.399 --> 01:23:15.039
the to the States. But yeah, I remember really enjoying this one,

1002
01:23:15.199 --> 01:23:18.680
so I'm very excited to check it
out again. I love the one I

1003
01:23:18.720 --> 01:23:21.119
decided to not ask if you've seen
it is the one that you have seen

1004
01:23:21.159 --> 01:23:28.600
it exactly. Next title is the
one that I saw so many people excited

1005
01:23:28.600 --> 01:23:32.079
about. Umbrella is putting out the
Prime Evils. This has a date of

1006
01:23:32.119 --> 01:23:35.520
twenty twenty three, but it goes
a little deeper than that. This is

1007
01:23:35.520 --> 01:23:41.359
a film that's forty five years in
the making from the late David Allen.

1008
01:23:41.800 --> 01:23:45.119
No monster or a special effects fani
will want to miss this movie. This

1009
01:23:45.199 --> 01:23:48.399
is a glorious tribute to classic animation
with a true sense of adventure that reminds

1010
01:23:48.439 --> 01:23:53.800
the audience why movies are magical.
It was unfinished and left on the cutting

1011
01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:58.560
room floor for three decades. The
epic sci fi adventure of the Prime Evils

1012
01:23:58.560 --> 01:24:02.439
from the infamous Full Moon features has
been resurrected for the screen with two different

1013
01:24:02.479 --> 01:24:06.600
cuts of the film and a full
feature length documentary. This one is going

1014
01:24:06.640 --> 01:24:11.039
to have a new video essay by
Howards Berger on the Prime Evils and Lost

1015
01:24:11.079 --> 01:24:16.640
Films, Dark Dreamers episode by which
is of Charles Band, video essay by

1016
01:24:16.880 --> 01:24:23.199
Jamie and Aspasia Leonard on Lost Monsters
and Cryptozoology, a making of featurette,

1017
01:24:23.279 --> 01:24:30.279
and then an alternate extended version of
the feature. This is crazy that they're

1018
01:24:30.319 --> 01:24:32.600
putting so much into this. I
also would imagine because it's Full Moon,

1019
01:24:33.560 --> 01:24:39.199
no doubt this is getting at least
one, if not about twelve different sort

1020
01:24:39.199 --> 01:24:43.800
of releases from Full Moon at some
point. This should be region free,

1021
01:24:43.880 --> 01:24:47.319
but just an fyi, this will
likely be coming out from Full Moon in

1022
01:24:47.359 --> 01:24:56.079
the US at some point. Yeah, this looks wild. Yeah, that's

1023
01:24:56.079 --> 01:25:00.079
some great packaging. That's what I
can say about Umbrella, for the most

1024
01:25:00.119 --> 01:25:03.880
part, is great packaging. I
wish that they were able to do some

1025
01:25:03.920 --> 01:25:11.640
more restoration work, but yeah,
Humboldt says, I prefer this to the

1026
01:25:11.720 --> 01:25:18.319
James Cameron stuff. Moving right along
to I Believe the last Umbrella announcement,

1027
01:25:18.319 --> 01:25:23.720
which is a huge month for them. Blu Ray release of The Quiet Family

1028
01:25:24.560 --> 01:25:29.279
by Kim G. Wound, who
directed I Saw the Devil. That's what

1029
01:25:29.319 --> 01:25:32.319
I was thinking of. The Quiet
Family is a darkly humorous musing on the

1030
01:25:32.359 --> 01:25:36.600
lengths people will go to protect their
own interest. This one if you get

1031
01:25:36.600 --> 01:25:40.880
that big release from Umbrella, forty
eight page book with a bunch of new

1032
01:25:41.000 --> 01:25:45.560
essays. We got a reversible poster, art cards, limited numbered release,

1033
01:25:45.800 --> 01:25:50.279
new audio commentary with Pierce Conran and
James marsh, archival commentary with the director

1034
01:25:50.359 --> 01:25:55.319
and actor Song Kang Ho, interviews
with the producers and actors. A forty

1035
01:25:55.359 --> 01:25:59.399
five minute short. Forty five minutes
short called Coming Out by the director,

1036
01:25:59.640 --> 01:26:04.319
a making of featurette, some music
videos and this looks like one I am

1037
01:26:04.920 --> 01:26:08.960
very eager to see. I love
I Saw the Devil, obviously love A

1038
01:26:09.000 --> 01:26:11.239
tale of two sisters, too,
But I saw The Devil as the one

1039
01:26:11.239 --> 01:26:15.279
that I'm a little more holding close
to my heart. But yeah, I've

1040
01:26:15.319 --> 01:26:19.520
never seen this one. Yeah I
haven't either, but yeah, I love

1041
01:26:19.560 --> 01:26:26.880
I saw The Devil and a Tale
of Two Sisters, So yeah, yeah,

1042
01:26:27.000 --> 01:26:30.159
I definitely want to see this one. This looks pretty damn good.

1043
01:26:30.880 --> 01:26:32.560
Oh gosh, there's one more,
and of course it's this and I forgot

1044
01:26:32.560 --> 01:26:36.199
it. Winnie the Pooh, Blood
and Honey too. If you got the

1045
01:26:36.199 --> 01:26:44.720
first one and I get so,
I had to get this one. If

1046
01:26:44.720 --> 01:26:46.279
you want to complete the collection,
you got to do it. And now,

1047
01:26:46.640 --> 01:26:49.159
honestly I feel like I should have
got the first one because it would

1048
01:26:49.199 --> 01:26:53.600
be pretty cool to have both.
Well, yeah, I'm glad that they're

1049
01:26:53.640 --> 01:26:58.159
at least following through with you know, the same formatting of the packaging.

1050
01:26:58.279 --> 01:27:01.399
So yeah, no matter what I
thought of the first one, I absolutely

1051
01:27:01.479 --> 01:27:06.760
had to get this one, which
I've actually heard the second one is better

1052
01:27:06.800 --> 01:27:11.319
than the first one, so I
have as well. I believe John has

1053
01:27:11.319 --> 01:27:15.399
seen it, and I think he
rated it higher. So this one is

1054
01:27:15.439 --> 01:27:17.760
going to have another big release,
just like that first one. This will

1055
01:27:17.760 --> 01:27:24.840
have a ruined childhood sixteen page quote
kids book called The Sticky Story of a

1056
01:27:24.920 --> 01:27:30.680
Bloody poo. Yikes. This one
will be a custom design rigid K sixteen

1057
01:27:30.920 --> 01:27:36.720
art cards, sixteen wow reversible poster, limited numbered case, audio commentary with

1058
01:27:36.760 --> 01:27:41.279
the cast and crew, bunch of
extras, deleted scenes, behind the score,

1059
01:27:41.359 --> 01:27:45.640
behind the scenes, audition tapes,
interviews. All of that bonus stuff

1060
01:27:45.399 --> 01:27:48.680
very much goes in line with the
first one. No, I believe they've

1061
01:27:48.680 --> 01:27:55.479
already announced a third one. There, Craig got to keep that pooniverse going.

1062
01:27:56.399 --> 01:28:03.680
I hate that term. I hate
that all right, Moving right along,

1063
01:28:04.079 --> 01:28:09.319
Hey, I put out an interview
with John sorry John, Josh Schaeffer

1064
01:28:09.760 --> 01:28:14.279
from Lunch Meet VHS this week.
I am moving everything and bumping my camera.

1065
01:28:14.800 --> 01:28:17.079
Hope you check it out. It
was fun. Josh is a very

1066
01:28:17.119 --> 01:28:23.800
passionate lover of analog video and you
you will feel that watching that interview,

1067
01:28:23.840 --> 01:28:28.640
because man, he goes all in
on VHS. And yeah, check it

1068
01:28:28.720 --> 01:28:38.359
out. Next, Mark Wahlberg and
Arthur the King from twenty twenty four.

1069
01:28:38.399 --> 01:28:41.720
This is coming on May twenty eighth
from Lionsgate. You see a lot of

1070
01:28:41.720 --> 01:28:45.840
new stuff that you happen to see
this one. I didn't see this one,

1071
01:28:45.399 --> 01:28:50.880
but I absolutely loved the marketing that
they did for this, where it

1072
01:28:53.079 --> 01:29:00.239
literally said in big letters on the
screen, this dog survives because that's what

1073
01:29:00.239 --> 01:29:03.520
everybody's worried about, so right,
it was kind of nice to It's kind

1074
01:29:03.520 --> 01:29:09.079
of nice to at least know that
going into it. But no, I

1075
01:29:09.119 --> 01:29:14.960
didn't see this one. That's that's
probably all right. Next another UK release,

1076
01:29:15.000 --> 01:29:17.359
Fabulous Films is putting out Backbeat from
nineteen ninety four. This is coming

1077
01:29:17.359 --> 01:29:21.279
out on May sixth on Blu Ray. You might recognize some faces in this.

1078
01:29:21.319 --> 01:29:26.279
We got Stephen dorf Heart, Sherry
Lee. Dave Grohl does some music

1079
01:29:26.319 --> 01:29:29.680
for this. This is supposed to
be pretty good. I've never seen this.

1080
01:29:29.720 --> 01:29:31.479
Did you ever see Backbeat? I
haven't, and I really, yeah,

1081
01:29:31.479 --> 01:29:34.079
I really, I've always wanted to
see this and I just never have.

1082
01:29:35.199 --> 01:29:39.960
And yeah, I think Shout Select
put it out and they did.

1083
01:29:40.199 --> 01:29:46.119
Yes, But yeah it sounds yeah, it sounds really good. Yep.

1084
01:29:46.359 --> 01:29:53.600
I'm eager to see this one.
Yep. Moving to our next one.

1085
01:29:54.199 --> 01:29:59.119
Another UK release, Wicked Little Letters, coming on Blu Ray from Studio Canal

1086
01:29:59.199 --> 01:30:02.920
on May thirteen. This is an
Olivia Coleman movie, which I feel like

1087
01:30:03.239 --> 01:30:08.800
she is in like seven movies a
year. Right now. She's in this

1088
01:30:08.840 --> 01:30:12.399
with Jesse Buckley. This will have
a couple of featurettes, but nothing crazy

1089
01:30:12.399 --> 01:30:15.640
on the release. I had never
heard of this title until this got announced.

1090
01:30:15.680 --> 01:30:19.079
Have you seen or heard of this
one? Yeah, I've heard really

1091
01:30:19.079 --> 01:30:24.600
good things about it. Yeah,
it came out a few weeks ago around

1092
01:30:24.600 --> 01:30:30.119
here theatrically, but it's probably gone
already a bit. Oh yeah, but

1093
01:30:30.159 --> 01:30:33.159
the people who saw it said it
was really good. Oh yeah. I

1094
01:30:33.159 --> 01:30:38.199
got nothing against Olivia Coleman. I'm
just amazed that she like she can just

1095
01:30:38.279 --> 01:30:42.239
happen to be everywhere. Please have
her keep showing him. She's amazing everything

1096
01:30:42.239 --> 01:30:45.439
showing. Yeah, I think every
movie would be better with her in it.

1097
01:30:45.520 --> 01:30:49.720
So well, Winnie the Pooh three, here we go, Well,

1098
01:30:49.720 --> 01:30:58.680
now I want that to happen.
Another UK release, Cabrini, coming on

1099
01:30:58.720 --> 01:31:02.079
May twenty seventh on Blue Rays in
the UK. Now, this one's interesting

1100
01:31:02.119 --> 01:31:06.600
because it got some It got some
mild praise from a handful of people.

1101
01:31:06.600 --> 01:31:10.039
This one's got John Lithgow in it, so it's got some star power.

1102
01:31:10.239 --> 01:31:14.880
Did you see Cabrini? I have
not, But am I the only one

1103
01:31:14.920 --> 01:31:17.560
who thinks of Candy Man when I
see this title? I do as well.

1104
01:31:17.720 --> 01:31:23.880
Actually, and uh that made me
more interested. But I'm sorry I

1105
01:31:23.920 --> 01:31:30.840
was gonna say I heard. I've
also there have been news stories about people

1106
01:31:30.960 --> 01:31:38.640
going to see this but then accidentally
ending up in the immaculate screening and and

1107
01:31:39.159 --> 01:31:42.840
something tells me they're very different films. Well, and if they're not,

1108
01:31:42.920 --> 01:31:47.800
I really want to see Cabreen.
Uh so, what's interesting. Instagram cropped

1109
01:31:47.840 --> 01:31:50.479
this picture in a really odd way, and if you see at the top

1110
01:31:50.520 --> 01:31:55.359
here you'll you'll barely see just a
little bit of it. At the top

1111
01:31:55.399 --> 01:31:59.560
of this case, it says from
the studio that brought you the Sound of

1112
01:31:59.600 --> 01:32:08.319
Freedom, it's really weird marketing strategy
to lay on something that was already controversial

1113
01:32:08.439 --> 01:32:11.840
for a lot of people. I
feel like you would have been better just

1114
01:32:12.000 --> 01:32:16.680
leaving that alone. But uh,
yeah, I don't know. Yes,

1115
01:32:17.119 --> 01:32:21.079
yeah, because it was such a
big hit, but yeah, there's a

1116
01:32:21.079 --> 01:32:27.760
lot of baggage connected to it.
Move into our next announcement, another UK

1117
01:32:27.920 --> 01:32:30.840
title, Variety I believe had a
keynoverlease here in the States. This is

1118
01:32:30.880 --> 01:32:35.920
coming very soon, like in four
days, very soon, April twenty second,

1119
01:32:36.000 --> 01:32:41.439
from a label called The Other Parties. They are releasing this if you

1120
01:32:41.479 --> 01:32:45.000
want. They have a lavish package
with the VHS. I've got everything linked

1121
01:32:45.119 --> 01:32:48.359
here if you want it. I
from what I can see, nothing in

1122
01:32:48.399 --> 01:32:50.920
the features is new. But if
you really want to go all in because

1123
01:32:50.920 --> 01:32:55.800
you love this movie, it's a
very limited package. I believe they only

1124
01:32:55.840 --> 01:32:59.199
had twenty five, so you might
want to look it up. Glad this

1125
01:32:59.239 --> 01:33:00.560
is coming out for people so that
they could have a chance to get this

1126
01:33:00.600 --> 01:33:04.840
in the UK. More territories with
more films is always a good thing.

1127
01:33:06.560 --> 01:33:13.920
I've never heard of that label the
other parties me neither, and when you

1128
01:33:13.960 --> 01:33:18.960
go to their site, I was
very curious about this site because when I

1129
01:33:19.000 --> 01:33:24.560
went into it, the entire site
was basically Variety and it seemed odd to

1130
01:33:24.560 --> 01:33:29.600
have an entire company just surrounding this
film. So I'm not sure if this

1131
01:33:29.760 --> 01:33:34.439
is just their like their first title, or if they're just going all in

1132
01:33:34.520 --> 01:33:39.600
on it. Who knows, Yes, Craig, twenty five copies of the

1133
01:33:40.119 --> 01:33:45.520
VHS like special Fancy bundle. The
regular release will have much bigger run.

1134
01:33:45.560 --> 01:33:53.960
I'm sure I think it is their
first release. Sibner all right. Next

1135
01:33:54.199 --> 01:33:59.279
June eighteenth, Kino is releasing Blown
Away from ninety four on four K and

1136
01:33:59.399 --> 01:34:02.359
Blu Ray. You got Jeff Bridges, you got Tommy Lee Jones on this.

1137
01:34:02.520 --> 01:34:09.439
You've got some archival commentaries, brand
new HD master with Dolby Vision from

1138
01:34:09.479 --> 01:34:13.880
a four K scan of the OCN. No new features from what I can

1139
01:34:13.960 --> 01:34:16.399
oh wait, Sorry, there's a
new one. Mike Leader and Arna Venema

1140
01:34:16.479 --> 01:34:20.359
do an audio commentary on this that's
new. They don't build these as new,

1141
01:34:20.439 --> 01:34:25.640
which they normally do, so maybe
the audio commentary Stephen Hopkins is new

1142
01:34:25.680 --> 01:34:29.520
as well, but I'm not entirely
sure here. I've never seen Blown Away.

1143
01:34:29.800 --> 01:34:32.479
How do you feel about this one? Dustin? The thing that I

1144
01:34:32.520 --> 01:34:36.359
always think of is it came out
in the summer of ninety four, around

1145
01:34:36.399 --> 01:34:42.079
the same time as Speed, and
I think that that movie overshadowed this one

1146
01:34:42.119 --> 01:34:45.880
because it was so good, and
I have seen that it's been a while,

1147
01:34:45.960 --> 01:34:48.880
but I mean, I remember it
being a pretty solid, solid action

1148
01:34:49.000 --> 01:34:54.880
thriller. I kind of love Tommy
Lee Jones, so even if it's not

1149
01:34:55.119 --> 01:35:00.960
solid, I'd probably still like it. Moving to our next one, speaking

1150
01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:04.960
of Immaculates, this is getting a
Blu ray release in the States on June

1151
01:35:04.960 --> 01:35:10.079
eleventh, and a four K media
book release on June eighteenth in Germany.

1152
01:35:10.840 --> 01:35:14.239
Neon and d KAL are handling the
Blue in the States, and Cape Light

1153
01:35:14.399 --> 01:35:18.000
is handling the four K in Germany. Special features we have in commentary from

1154
01:35:18.039 --> 01:35:23.399
Michael Mohan, the director, and
then on the German release, we've got

1155
01:35:23.560 --> 01:35:29.239
a two disc limited edition collectors of
release. We don't have any details on

1156
01:35:29.359 --> 01:35:32.760
extras, probably the exact same commentary
on that one. I would imagine we'll

1157
01:35:32.760 --> 01:35:35.960
also have a twenty four page booklet. But the odds are, and I'm

1158
01:35:35.960 --> 01:35:40.399
not saying this is a guarantee,
but the odds are this will likely get

1159
01:35:40.439 --> 01:35:44.359
a four K release in the States. Eventually. This was a fairly big

1160
01:35:44.439 --> 01:35:48.439
hit for them, and Mohan is
somebody that loves physical media. I would

1161
01:35:48.439 --> 01:35:54.039
not be surprised at all if eventually
he came out with like an old Boy

1162
01:35:54.159 --> 01:36:02.800
style four K release? Has this
is right? Yeah? Have they released

1163
01:36:02.840 --> 01:36:06.720
anything in four K? That Old
Boy released from them? Was four K?

1164
01:36:06.800 --> 01:36:13.600
That fancy one? Yeah? This
is yeah. I was trying to

1165
01:36:14.199 --> 01:36:17.239
tamper down my why why isn't this
on four K? Thing? But I'm

1166
01:36:17.279 --> 01:36:21.720
gonna say it just this once tonight
for this movie, because I really feel

1167
01:36:21.960 --> 01:36:30.079
like this would benefit for four K
because it's it's beautifully shot but very dark,

1168
01:36:30.439 --> 01:36:35.119
and I think that that, yeah, it would look beautiful in four

1169
01:36:35.159 --> 01:36:40.920
K and it will. Uh yes, Celeste and h I shout out to

1170
01:36:41.000 --> 01:36:45.840
Dust and the goat. No,
she's the good and Ryan, very very

1171
01:36:45.920 --> 01:36:49.600
dark movie. This will this will
need four K. This is a movie

1172
01:36:49.640 --> 01:36:54.880
that some of the scenes in this
it it needs that HDR to actually have

1173
01:36:55.000 --> 01:36:59.359
those those deep dark blacks, and
uh, it'll look amazing. And again

1174
01:36:59.800 --> 01:37:03.600
I'm I'm willing to bet hard money
that eventually this comes on four K in

1175
01:37:03.640 --> 01:37:09.399
the States from neon. So do
you think I should get this or no?

1176
01:37:15.279 --> 01:37:21.720
Will debate after the stream for a
minute. Next title American Fiction.

1177
01:37:21.880 --> 01:37:26.119
This is one that a lot of
people were worried about not getting a disc

1178
01:37:26.159 --> 01:37:30.159
release at all because it had been
so long since it came out. June,

1179
01:37:30.399 --> 01:37:34.079
Warner is releasing American Fiction themselves.
This is the Jeffrey Wright film that

1180
01:37:34.119 --> 01:37:39.439
came out last year that made a
run for quite a few oscars and is

1181
01:37:39.880 --> 01:37:43.319
great. I'm sure you saw this
one. What'd you think of American Fiction?

1182
01:37:44.439 --> 01:37:48.399
Yeah, I'm glad that that it
is finally being announced and yeah it

1183
01:37:48.239 --> 01:37:51.199
was. It was a really good
movie. I don't know that I was

1184
01:37:53.000 --> 01:37:59.359
over the top in love with it
like some people were. Well, I

1185
01:37:59.399 --> 01:38:01.720
don't know that I would really compare
them because the other one's more serious.

1186
01:38:01.760 --> 01:38:10.039
But I liked Origin a lot more
than this one. I really I loved

1187
01:38:10.079 --> 01:38:15.079
Origin. That was my second favorite
movie of last year. But this does

1188
01:38:15.159 --> 01:38:19.359
have a well Jeffrey Wright is excellent
in it, and the writing is really

1189
01:38:19.399 --> 01:38:25.399
sharp and really is very funny.
Did you see that? I did.

1190
01:38:25.520 --> 01:38:28.880
Yeah, this movie is is great. I kind of wish I went and

1191
01:38:28.920 --> 01:38:30.920
saw this in the theater. I
did watch this one at home. I

1192
01:38:31.359 --> 01:38:36.119
think that this movie shines literally in
every single scene. Jeffrey Wright. How

1193
01:38:36.119 --> 01:38:42.760
does he not get more love for
every single thing he touches? Yeah,

1194
01:38:42.800 --> 01:38:45.439
it was so nice to see him, you know, front and center in

1195
01:38:45.439 --> 01:38:48.439
a movie so often, you know, in supporting roles. So yeah,

1196
01:38:48.479 --> 01:38:53.920
it was it was great seeing him. Craig says a tennis friend of mine

1197
01:38:53.920 --> 01:38:57.960
hates this movie. Literally the only
person I've heard anything bad about it from.

1198
01:38:58.279 --> 01:39:03.199
It's pretty funny. Hey, the
Physical Media Advocate, we are putting

1199
01:39:03.239 --> 01:39:08.880
together our next issue, issue number
nine. If you got a question that

1200
01:39:08.920 --> 01:39:15.399
you want to see put into the
magazine released in either a very or sorry

1201
01:39:15.439 --> 01:39:19.079
answered in a very serious way or
in a very humorous way. Hey,

1202
01:39:19.119 --> 01:39:23.920
send me a message, whether that's
on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, you

1203
01:39:23.960 --> 01:39:29.399
can email me at disc Connectedmedia at
gmail dot com. We'll print it.

1204
01:39:29.720 --> 01:39:32.439
We've got I think three or four
letters for this month already, but we're

1205
01:39:32.439 --> 01:39:35.800
trying to get a bigger letter to
the editor section. So whatever you have,

1206
01:39:36.359 --> 01:39:40.239
if you're part of the Patreon and
you're in the discord, go ahead

1207
01:39:40.279 --> 01:39:45.439
and send me a message on there, anything that you would like to have

1208
01:39:45.840 --> 01:39:50.680
printed. We've got some good questions. One actually about deaf crocodile kind of

1209
01:39:50.840 --> 01:39:55.239
it's it's related to deaf crocodile.
I just want to say that since Craig's

1210
01:39:55.279 --> 01:39:59.800
here. But yeah, if you
want something answered, please I am looking

1211
01:39:59.840 --> 01:40:02.079
for and, as I say in
this little post here, if you want

1212
01:40:02.119 --> 01:40:04.640
to ask somebody's opinion on something,
if you want to write a silly letter

1213
01:40:04.640 --> 01:40:08.600
to appear in the zine just for
fun, if you want to inquire about

1214
01:40:08.640 --> 01:40:12.680
rights on a specific title, I'll
do my best to find an answer from

1215
01:40:12.720 --> 01:40:16.239
somebody at a label that has more
information from acquisitions. You got a specific

1216
01:40:16.279 --> 01:40:19.159
question about a process, just let
me know. We'll try to get a

1217
01:40:19.159 --> 01:40:23.920
printed and then you can pick up
the next zine and you can see your

1218
01:40:23.960 --> 01:40:33.319
name in print. Next Paramount is
re re re releasing Florist Jump on a

1219
01:40:33.399 --> 01:40:38.640
four K steal book on July second. From what I can tell, this

1220
01:40:38.680 --> 01:40:42.279
is not an updated four K restoration, which is unfortunate because the four K

1221
01:40:42.359 --> 01:40:46.199
for this is pretty awful. But
it is going to have four discs or

1222
01:40:46.239 --> 01:40:48.920
sorry, five discs, a four
K disc, a Blu ray disc,

1223
01:40:49.239 --> 01:40:51.920
and two CDs. I think it
actually has two Blu ray discs. But

1224
01:40:54.239 --> 01:41:00.600
nothing really new unless you don't have
all of the like the cdc antracks and

1225
01:41:00.640 --> 01:41:04.239
all that. This is a lot. We really don't need another release of

1226
01:41:04.319 --> 01:41:09.760
Forrest Gump, I don't think.
And this is definitely not a new restoration

1227
01:41:09.920 --> 01:41:15.039
or anything. Nope, they if
they, I think if it was a

1228
01:41:15.039 --> 01:41:21.760
new restoration, they would be advertising
that like crazy good point moving right along,

1229
01:41:23.279 --> 01:41:27.479
this is a big one. Dony
releasing Thunderheart on May twenty first.

1230
01:41:28.560 --> 01:41:30.840
This is one with Val Kilmer that
a lot of people have wanted for a

1231
01:41:30.960 --> 01:41:34.560
long time. I've never seen thunder
art. Have you seen this one?

1232
01:41:35.479 --> 01:41:40.520
Yes? And yeah, this will
date me. I used to watch this

1233
01:41:40.600 --> 01:41:45.359
all the time on Laser Disc,
and it's yeah, it's a it's an

1234
01:41:45.399 --> 01:41:49.560
excellent film. Yeah, and I
probably haven't seen it since Laser Disc.

1235
01:41:50.239 --> 01:41:54.560
So yeah, when I saw this
was announced, it was like a blast

1236
01:41:54.600 --> 01:41:57.960
from the past because I hadn't thought
about it in so long, but I

1237
01:41:58.000 --> 01:42:00.359
just remembered that I really liked it, so I'm yeah, I'm definitely gonna

1238
01:42:00.439 --> 01:42:03.760
order this one. I got a
lot of complaints that this one's not going

1239
01:42:03.840 --> 01:42:08.680
to be four K. Unfortunately,
that's just how it is. The hard

1240
01:42:08.720 --> 01:42:13.399
part is this is available on four
K streaming, so I imagine they think

1241
01:42:13.479 --> 01:42:16.359
this is just not gonna do well
on physical media, so they they're announcing

1242
01:42:16.359 --> 01:42:19.039
it on Blu Ray. The funny
thing is, if this suddenly sells like

1243
01:42:19.119 --> 01:42:21.439
Gangbusters, they'll probably go, oh, well, then let's put it on

1244
01:42:21.439 --> 01:42:25.000
four K, and then people will
go, well, now I already have

1245
01:42:25.000 --> 01:42:30.159
a Blu Ray, I don't need
to buy that. For next up,

1246
01:42:30.239 --> 01:42:33.279
Saints and Sinners from just last year
coming on Blue Ray on May twenty eighth.

1247
01:42:33.560 --> 01:42:40.239
Liam Neeson, did you see this
one? I didn't know a lot

1248
01:42:40.279 --> 01:42:43.720
of the I actually saw this one. Yeah, this one got pretty fairly

1249
01:42:43.760 --> 01:42:47.479
good reviews, but I don't know. It's at the point where all of

1250
01:42:47.560 --> 01:42:53.439
the Liam Neeson films are starting to
run together for me. Yeah, and

1251
01:42:53.880 --> 01:42:58.680
but I am looking forward to the
Naked Gun with him, so we shall

1252
01:42:58.760 --> 01:43:00.159
see. I mean, I I
don't know if it's going to be good

1253
01:43:00.199 --> 01:43:02.800
or not, but I'm very curious
to see. Yeah, I want to

1254
01:43:02.800 --> 01:43:09.359
see how they do the editing for
that next one. Luke Bassan's dog Man

1255
01:43:09.359 --> 01:43:13.960
getting a US release from Universal on
June eleventh. I feel like hardly anybody

1256
01:43:13.960 --> 01:43:15.600
has seen this one yet. Have
you seen this one? I'm imagining not.

1257
01:43:17.399 --> 01:43:20.880
Luke Passan doesn't seem to have made
anything great for a couple of decades,

1258
01:43:20.920 --> 01:43:25.640
so I'd be curious to check this
one out. Did this get a

1259
01:43:25.680 --> 01:43:30.359
theatrical release or not here? I
think it did in the EU. Basically,

1260
01:43:33.359 --> 01:43:38.079
just a couple more before the big
ones that I want to talk about.

1261
01:43:38.159 --> 01:43:42.720
Radiance put up their next six month
subscription you can do to July to

1262
01:43:42.800 --> 01:43:45.159
December of this year, and the
big news here is that they fixed it

1263
01:43:45.239 --> 01:43:48.760
so you don't have to check out
six different times to get six different shipments.

1264
01:43:49.079 --> 01:43:54.119
You can get the You can just
check out once and get six months

1265
01:43:54.119 --> 01:43:59.439
worth of shipments. Package each month
they fixed that. It was really annoying

1266
01:43:59.520 --> 01:44:01.079
last time if you tried to go
and get a subscription from them. So

1267
01:44:01.840 --> 01:44:09.159
check out Radiance if you're into the
second half of the year. Here's a

1268
01:44:09.239 --> 01:44:13.720
little movie, Taxi Driver, getting
a standalone four K release in a steel

1269
01:44:13.760 --> 01:44:17.439
book on June twenty fifth. This
is the exact same discs from that Columbia

1270
01:44:17.439 --> 01:44:23.399
Classics Volume two set that it was
a part of. Taxi Drivers. Pretty

1271
01:44:23.520 --> 01:44:26.159
pretty okay. How do you feel
about Taxi Driver, Dustin? Oh,

1272
01:44:26.159 --> 01:44:34.239
it's great and yeah, I have
the Columbia Classics box sets, so I

1273
01:44:34.279 --> 01:44:38.760
won't be getting this one, but
I'm glad that it's finally getting its own

1274
01:44:38.840 --> 01:44:43.239
separate release for those who weren't able
to get that. This is one of

1275
01:44:43.520 --> 01:44:47.479
very few. Yeah, this is
one of very few in those box sets

1276
01:44:47.520 --> 01:44:50.840
that have gotten a standalone release,
So everybody check this out. The four

1277
01:44:50.920 --> 01:44:58.600
K looks absolutely stunning. I've got
that Columbia Classics too. It looks great.

1278
01:44:58.720 --> 01:45:03.479
This following Taxi Driver is just hilarious. June eleventh, the Shrek Forever

1279
01:45:03.560 --> 01:45:09.520
After is coming out on four K
from Universal. Yes, they're also putting

1280
01:45:09.520 --> 01:45:13.840
out a Shrek for Film four K
collection if you really want that. And

1281
01:45:14.279 --> 01:45:17.720
this is where my patience pays off, because I knew that they were gonna

1282
01:45:17.760 --> 01:45:21.560
do a box set once all four
of them were out, So I refuse

1283
01:45:21.640 --> 01:45:28.119
to buy these because I really,
I really like the first two. I

1284
01:45:28.119 --> 01:45:30.159
would need to rewatch the third and
fourth one, but I do like the

1285
01:45:30.159 --> 01:45:32.960
first and second one. This is
better than the third one. For sure.

1286
01:45:33.000 --> 01:45:40.399
Everybody calls the third one Shrek the
third but but yeah, I do

1287
01:45:40.520 --> 01:45:46.000
want the collection of these, so
I will be getting that. I love

1288
01:45:46.119 --> 01:45:51.399
animation on four K so when it's
done right, it looks amazing. Just

1289
01:45:51.439 --> 01:45:55.920
a reminder, you can pick up
the newest issue of the Physical Media Advocate

1290
01:45:55.920 --> 01:46:00.319
from Cinema Classics. If you are
buying physical media already, there's no reason

1291
01:46:00.359 --> 01:46:02.640
not to. Specifically, if you
go to Cinema Classics and spend seventy five

1292
01:46:02.680 --> 01:46:08.359
bucks, look at that, you
can put in the comments of Physical Media

1293
01:46:08.399 --> 01:46:13.079
Advocate and he'll send you one for
free. That's an incredible deal and the

1294
01:46:13.119 --> 01:46:15.640
big thing for him. He's got
multiple deals. If you buy six releases,

1295
01:46:15.640 --> 01:46:18.840
you get the seventh one for free. You get free shipping over sixty

1296
01:46:18.880 --> 01:46:24.239
dollars, and if you buy if
you buy stuff with five different release dates.

1297
01:46:24.279 --> 01:46:26.479
He sends you all of them as
they come in, so you don't

1298
01:46:26.479 --> 01:46:30.840
have to worry about all of them
waiting until the last one arrives. Cinema

1299
01:46:30.840 --> 01:46:33.720
Classics is a pretty great place.
Check it out, and pretty soon we'll

1300
01:46:33.720 --> 01:46:41.119
have some more announcements about some other
retail locations selling the physical Media Advocate the

1301
01:46:41.159 --> 01:46:43.319
other big thing. We're gonna come
back to this at the end of the

1302
01:46:43.640 --> 01:46:47.000
other announcements, but I want to
cover this and then we got the stuff

1303
01:46:47.000 --> 01:46:51.000
I'm super excited about. May twenty. First, Sony is releasing The Vertical

1304
01:46:51.079 --> 01:46:55.680
Ray of the Sun as part of
their Sony Pictures Classics line. This is

1305
01:46:55.680 --> 01:46:59.199
coming on Blu Ray. I've never
seen this one. This is a Vietnamese

1306
01:46:59.279 --> 01:47:02.239
drama. This is to be great. Sony Pictures Classics kind of always knocks

1307
01:47:02.279 --> 01:47:04.880
it out of the park. Have
you seen this one? I haven't,

1308
01:47:04.920 --> 01:47:10.920
but yeah, I'm in just from
the Sony Pictures Classics the cover. I'm

1309
01:47:10.920 --> 01:47:15.359
actually surprised I haven't heard of this
one prior to this announcement because it seems

1310
01:47:15.399 --> 01:47:20.399
like something I would have would have
heard of. But yeah, I agree.

1311
01:47:20.640 --> 01:47:25.000
Before we go to our next announcement, I figured for the next little

1312
01:47:25.039 --> 01:47:30.439
batch, it might be useful to
have some help, So to have somebody

1313
01:47:30.479 --> 01:47:35.399
here to introduce the Terror Vision titles, Let's bring in mister Brad Henderson.

1314
01:47:35.720 --> 01:47:41.640
You got my Harry Potters on,
so just for you, nice Dustin,

1315
01:47:41.800 --> 01:47:45.720
Brad, Brad, Dustin Putman.
Hey, Brad, nice to meet you.

1316
01:47:45.600 --> 01:47:48.079
Nice to meet you. I know
you're a big fan, so thank

1317
01:47:48.119 --> 01:47:55.239
you for always taking pictures. Did
you do the like on the stairs or

1318
01:47:55.399 --> 01:47:59.079
on the stairs? Yes, yes, yes, yeah, Well I don't

1319
01:47:59.079 --> 01:48:02.439
know if you were on early.
But did you see I received a river

1320
01:48:02.680 --> 01:48:08.880
in the mail today? Oh no, no, I joined in when I

1321
01:48:08.920 --> 01:48:12.800
think you were talking about Luke Luca's
songs. So yeah, no, it

1322
01:48:12.840 --> 01:48:15.000
looks it's a beautiful I don't have
a copy yet, so I'm glad it

1323
01:48:15.039 --> 01:48:20.119
looks good. Oh I got one
before you. Yeah, and I'm always

1324
01:48:20.199 --> 01:48:27.760
usually last, so you know.
But anyways, yeah, no, it

1325
01:48:27.760 --> 01:48:32.920
didn't get a theatrical release here because
he was going through all his allegations during

1326
01:48:32.960 --> 01:48:38.680
the time. I was going to
see it in Texas, but I got

1327
01:48:38.680 --> 01:48:43.479
COVID at Fantastic Fest when it premiered
there, so I didn't get to go.

1328
01:48:43.800 --> 01:48:49.760
But yeah, well, well welcome
sir. Last night a big,

1329
01:48:49.840 --> 01:48:53.960
big release night for Terror Vision.
We had a big live stream that went

1330
01:48:54.239 --> 01:48:57.720
just about two hours. Last night
covered four new releases on home video,

1331
01:48:58.159 --> 01:49:01.119
covered a vinyl LP release. First
thing, we're gonna get into some of

1332
01:49:01.159 --> 01:49:04.479
the titles in just a moment.
How's the reaction been in your mind?

1333
01:49:05.119 --> 01:49:10.600
Reaction has been good, you know. You know, it's always one of

1334
01:49:10.600 --> 01:49:14.880
those things where you have different expectations
for everything and then you know, especially

1335
01:49:14.920 --> 01:49:16.720
when you have like, you know, four titles in an LP, it

1336
01:49:16.880 --> 01:49:23.760
just you know, we're very happy
with the response. But yeah, I

1337
01:49:23.760 --> 01:49:29.079
mean, everything's been going okay,
but it's only been like twenty four hours.

1338
01:49:30.279 --> 01:49:33.359
Imagine things will pick up over the
weekend. And my biggest thing is

1339
01:49:33.359 --> 01:49:36.399
I hope people will give a shot
all the contemporary stuff, you know,

1340
01:49:36.439 --> 01:49:40.560
because I know people will dig the
stuff we just announced, but it's the

1341
01:49:40.600 --> 01:49:46.039
contemporary stuff I'm a little That's what
I'm most anxious about. So well,

1342
01:49:46.159 --> 01:49:49.000
let's go through all of those.
We're going to cover the contemporary sale and

1343
01:49:49.039 --> 01:49:54.239
the announcement. So first thing,
we announced an old kung fu master.

1344
01:49:54.359 --> 01:49:59.439
This is from nineteen eighty one.
This is one that is really important to

1345
01:49:59.680 --> 01:50:03.720
prime rely to simply preserve this film. Why don't you tell us a story

1346
01:50:03.760 --> 01:50:08.039
behind that one and why it looks
the way it does. Yeah, So

1347
01:50:09.359 --> 01:50:15.239
I love kind of those chopsake.
I mean, I love all action films

1348
01:50:15.319 --> 01:50:19.399
and you know, stuff from Hong
Kong, Taiwan, all those things.

1349
01:50:19.439 --> 01:50:25.640
But just like how I am with
you know, horror and exploitation and you

1350
01:50:25.680 --> 01:50:30.239
know, even this stuff that I
did at Vinegar Syndrome, I kind of

1351
01:50:30.279 --> 01:50:33.760
like the Nitti and Gritty forgotten about
lost lost stuff. And there's there's a

1352
01:50:33.800 --> 01:50:40.239
slew of these types of films that
just never got a decent treatment at all,

1353
01:50:41.279 --> 01:50:45.520
and mainly wire just kind of even
bootlegged on tapes, you know,

1354
01:50:45.840 --> 01:50:49.039
Uh, I know Wu Tang Collection
had a lot of these at one time.

1355
01:50:49.239 --> 01:50:54.640
I think a lot of them were
bootlegs. But again, no one,

1356
01:50:54.800 --> 01:50:59.520
no one really claims the rights on
some of this stuff. However,

1357
01:51:00.119 --> 01:51:08.079
we actually did find the rights owner
on this stuff. It basically this,

1358
01:51:09.520 --> 01:51:13.359
I mean I could say their name
is Paul Maslak and Niva Friedman. They

1359
01:51:13.880 --> 01:51:19.319
had this company called L and T
in back in the eighties and they were

1360
01:51:19.680 --> 01:51:27.279
purchasing these films for US rights and
screening them in you know, dinging theaters

1361
01:51:27.279 --> 01:51:33.119
and stuff on these like long runs
of like on forty second Street and stuff

1362
01:51:33.159 --> 01:51:38.119
like that that would play these types
of films. And yeah, they bought

1363
01:51:38.119 --> 01:51:41.840
a ton of this stuff for the
US and it just kind of sat with

1364
01:51:41.960 --> 01:51:45.800
them because they never really thought about
home video, even with tape. It

1365
01:51:45.840 --> 01:51:50.880
was mainly to make money theatrically because
that's where the big money was. And

1366
01:51:51.439 --> 01:51:57.239
yeah, we you know, it's
basically it's kind of changed hands a couple

1367
01:51:57.199 --> 01:52:01.239
of times, and you know,
they have basically a sales rep who's a

1368
01:52:01.279 --> 01:52:05.720
palid mine and we have we licensed, you know, quite a few of

1369
01:52:05.720 --> 01:52:11.600
these films. The only issue is
that there's no material because they didn't really

1370
01:52:11.640 --> 01:52:15.319
keep their prints or they had to
send them back. So we have to

1371
01:52:15.439 --> 01:52:20.840
find film material, which is very
rough on these types of movies, because

1372
01:52:23.399 --> 01:52:28.239
it's a lot of these things are
just thrown away. They weren't preserved in

1373
01:52:28.279 --> 01:52:31.840
the sense because they really weren't by
a big studio or anything. And some

1374
01:52:31.960 --> 01:52:36.319
of the most of the time,
like these were made for cash grabs,

1375
01:52:38.199 --> 01:52:43.239
and a lot of them had music
that I mean, you listen to Game

1376
01:52:43.279 --> 01:52:48.199
of Killers, don't report us to
the Pink Panther rights owners because the Pink

1377
01:52:48.239 --> 01:52:54.880
Panther music plays in Game of Killers
numerous times, you know, and some

1378
01:52:55.359 --> 01:53:00.960
idiom mccarnis as well. But yeah, so it's just like that's just kind

1379
01:53:00.960 --> 01:53:06.520
of how they made these films so
old master very much like Game of Killers.

1380
01:53:06.760 --> 01:53:12.520
We were able to track down a
print for it, and it was

1381
01:53:13.520 --> 01:53:16.239
that it was in terrible, terrible
shape, probably the most like the worst

1382
01:53:16.239 --> 01:53:20.039
I've ever seen, honestly with these
films. Like when they opened up the

1383
01:53:20.079 --> 01:53:27.399
canisters, it was like liquid at
the bottom and it just stunk really really

1384
01:53:27.399 --> 01:53:30.720
bad. And when you smell something
like when you open a canister and you

1385
01:53:30.760 --> 01:53:33.760
get a whiff of that vinegar smell
and it hits you and it almost like

1386
01:53:33.840 --> 01:53:38.720
knocks you back, you know that
your film is in pretty bad shape.

1387
01:53:39.199 --> 01:53:43.359
But we have a pretty good team
of people that do this stuff. So

1388
01:53:43.439 --> 01:53:48.439
we cleaned it up, ran it
through. It was basically bright pink magenta,

1389
01:53:48.560 --> 01:53:53.439
and we had to get it back
to what we would think that this

1390
01:53:53.600 --> 01:53:59.399
film would look like. So our
color is Steve. He worked really really

1391
01:53:59.399 --> 01:54:03.560
hard on Game Killers in this and
yeah, it brought it back to life.

1392
01:54:03.800 --> 01:54:11.000
And there's a lot of damage on
these two films, and you know,

1393
01:54:11.159 --> 01:54:14.159
I had that kind of internal debate
that, you know, obviously we

1394
01:54:14.199 --> 01:54:18.439
want to do restoration because that's important, but with these films, like there

1395
01:54:18.520 --> 01:54:23.239
was so much damage, it was
like we could do some stuff, but

1396
01:54:23.279 --> 01:54:28.520
it would still look beat up.
And I was like, it kind of

1397
01:54:28.600 --> 01:54:31.600
gives a good vibe to it watching
these things like this. You know,

1398
01:54:32.159 --> 01:54:35.159
it's almost like if you ever see
a telescene of a film, you know,

1399
01:54:35.199 --> 01:54:39.199
we're just running through a scanner and
you you know, you slap it

1400
01:54:39.239 --> 01:54:41.920
on your television, looks like you're
watching a print. That's kind of what

1401
01:54:41.960 --> 01:54:45.279
this looks like. And with the
types of films these are, it kind

1402
01:54:45.279 --> 01:54:50.720
of gives it that vibe that you're
watching it in the dingy theater on the

1403
01:54:50.760 --> 01:54:55.079
screen and just having a good time. And that's what these films are.

1404
01:54:55.159 --> 01:54:59.039
And this in one in particular,
has such a massive cast in it.

1405
01:54:59.039 --> 01:55:04.079
It's and it's pretty like just kind
of forgotten about, but it has a

1406
01:55:04.199 --> 01:55:08.920
huge cast. Most of these guys
went on and girls went on to do

1407
01:55:08.960 --> 01:55:13.680
a lot of things, and uh
yeah, it just was always a quirky,

1408
01:55:13.800 --> 01:55:17.439
goofy, silly movie. Game of
Killers is more serious. This is

1409
01:55:17.439 --> 01:55:24.640
a little bit more comedic, but
they always sound really cool, not not

1410
01:55:24.680 --> 01:55:26.760
shitting on it. But then you
watch it and you're like, oh,

1411
01:55:26.840 --> 01:55:31.039
it's like this martial arts master gets
these students together and takes on this head

1412
01:55:31.079 --> 01:55:35.479
honcho. Well yeah, they that
happens, but it's kind of goofy as

1413
01:55:35.479 --> 01:55:42.399
it does. So, yeah,
chop socky film a lot of fun I

1414
01:55:42.439 --> 01:55:45.760
love. We played the trailer last
night and the like overwhelming, like five

1415
01:55:45.800 --> 01:55:49.880
comments in a row was did that
guy just grab that other dude's tits?

1416
01:55:49.960 --> 01:55:54.399
Just everybody's saying it. Yeah,
it's a really great part of the trailer.

1417
01:55:54.520 --> 01:55:57.399
Yeah, Rock like that scene and
he thought it was funny, and

1418
01:55:57.520 --> 01:56:01.560
yeah, I mean that's the whole
that's the whole point is that we don't

1419
01:56:01.600 --> 01:56:08.920
want to shy away from these types
of films, you know of like kind

1420
01:56:08.920 --> 01:56:11.600
of the goofy nous, So we
kind of went all out on this Game

1421
01:56:11.640 --> 01:56:15.279
of Killer. The trailer played a
little bit more serious than the movie,

1422
01:56:15.760 --> 01:56:20.600
but that's because we used If you
watch the Game of Killers trailer, it's

1423
01:56:20.640 --> 01:56:26.640
actually the soundtrack to Copperhead that we
released that we used in the trailer,

1424
01:56:26.680 --> 01:56:30.800
which was kind of funny. But
yeah, I mean I just adore these

1425
01:56:30.840 --> 01:56:33.520
movies. They're fun, they're easy
watches, and if you have some friends

1426
01:56:33.520 --> 01:56:38.720
that like action movies and martial arts, you want to get some beer and

1427
01:56:38.760 --> 01:56:42.840
pizza. These things are kind of
fun to watch. They may hate you

1428
01:56:42.880 --> 01:56:47.159
afterwards. But also if you picked
up the Game of Killers release, there

1429
01:56:47.319 --> 01:56:53.319
is like a companion visual essay on
this. This one has a history of

1430
01:56:53.439 --> 01:56:58.960
Cecilia Wong, obviously a very important
name in all kinds of cinema over there,

1431
01:56:59.000 --> 01:57:01.319
as she contributed a lot of the
most popular people in the movie too.

1432
01:57:01.960 --> 01:57:05.279
Yeah, I'm very proud of how
that came out, and the big

1433
01:57:05.319 --> 01:57:11.319
thing gone from Hooper Dodd is the
one that did that great UK accent.

1434
01:57:11.640 --> 01:57:15.199
Go go and listen to a sultry
white man just to teach you about Cecilia

1435
01:57:15.239 --> 01:57:19.720
long for the next fifteen minutes.
It's a great piece. But the next

1436
01:57:19.760 --> 01:57:24.279
one I think was gonna ask a
question real quick. Oh, go ahead,

1437
01:57:24.319 --> 01:57:27.359
Dustin, Oh, it wasn't a
question. I was just gonna comment

1438
01:57:27.439 --> 01:57:30.199
that. Yeah. I was there
for the live stream announcement last night,

1439
01:57:30.279 --> 01:57:34.479
and I don't know who put together
the trailer for this movie, but I

1440
01:57:34.520 --> 01:57:40.640
can't imagine anybody watching it and not
wanting to order it instantly. Yeah,

1441
01:57:40.640 --> 01:57:44.359
that would have been John Daily Rock
Chudson. He's doing our trailers now and

1442
01:57:44.399 --> 01:57:47.880
he's pretty good at it. Well, that's so well done. John was

1443
01:57:47.920 --> 01:57:51.880
just on the show a couple of
weeks ago, and if you he is

1444
01:57:53.039 --> 01:57:57.680
a character. I love working with
John. He's a good guy. Satanic.

1445
01:57:57.840 --> 01:58:00.560
This one seemed to make a lot
of people happy. We've got this

1446
01:58:00.640 --> 01:58:04.239
coming from nineteen sixty eight. You
can get a bundle with this freaking amazing

1447
01:58:04.359 --> 01:58:10.279
shirt. Also, this one is
coming with the Italian audio. There seemed

1448
01:58:10.279 --> 01:58:13.960
to be some questions for people not
seeing that. In the announcement it says

1449
01:58:14.359 --> 01:58:17.079
you can get it with the original
Italian audio audio and there's an English dub

1450
01:58:17.119 --> 01:58:20.680
on here. On top of that, we got a commentary with Eugeniy Orcalani,

1451
01:58:20.840 --> 01:58:27.079
Troy Howarth, Nathaniel Thompson, interview
with Piero Viverelli, interview with Patrizia

1452
01:58:27.199 --> 01:58:31.079
Rasso, a visual essay by Eugenie
Orclani, and then another visual essay by

1453
01:58:31.159 --> 01:58:36.359
Alexandra Heller Nicholas, plus the complete
original soundtrack. Tell us about Satanic,

1454
01:58:36.399 --> 01:58:41.239
Bradon Why you love this one?
Yeah? I mean this is actually a

1455
01:58:41.279 --> 01:58:45.560
movie that Ryan really wanted at first. I mean, I'm a fan of

1456
01:58:45.600 --> 01:58:47.920
the movie too, but he when
we kind of sit down and we just

1457
01:58:48.199 --> 01:58:53.399
like discuss like some of our favorites
and what we want to see, he

1458
01:58:53.520 --> 01:58:58.039
mentioned Satanic and I was like,
oh, yeah, I knew who owned

1459
01:58:58.039 --> 01:59:02.039
that, and we went to the
rights owner and we made a deal.

1460
01:59:02.520 --> 01:59:09.800
It was a little a little tricky
because it was it was a material issue

1461
01:59:10.000 --> 01:59:15.640
on this and the film has never
really film's never seen HD. It's never

1462
01:59:15.680 --> 01:59:20.039
had a legitimate disc release in the
US. Honestly, I don't even know

1463
01:59:20.600 --> 01:59:24.960
VHS, to be honest with you, but it's never had a disc release

1464
01:59:25.000 --> 01:59:28.520
in the US. It's never been
an HD overseas. The only time I

1465
01:59:28.600 --> 01:59:33.319
ever had a legitimate DVD release was
in Italy and it didn't have any English

1466
01:59:33.399 --> 01:59:41.319
friendly, you know, subtitles or
whatever. And so yeah, we we

1467
01:59:41.319 --> 01:59:48.560
we found a partial negative for this
one and partial prints and we put it

1468
01:59:48.600 --> 01:59:55.159
together and we also had additional two
other prints that were in very good condition.

1469
01:59:55.960 --> 01:59:59.960
And that's how this movie was color
timed, and we did the color

1470
02:00:00.039 --> 02:00:02.439
grading on it because it was they
weren't really they weren't fade. One was

1471
02:00:03.600 --> 02:00:08.880
not faded hardly at all, which
was actually kind of remarkable, being it's

1472
02:00:09.359 --> 02:00:15.880
incredibly old. And yeah, we
went through and we did this whole new

1473
02:00:15.319 --> 02:00:19.000
color grade on the film, because
if you see the film on these DVDs

1474
02:00:19.000 --> 02:00:23.960
and bootlegs, the color is completely
off. I always joke, I think

1475
02:00:24.000 --> 02:00:28.000
I put in here that her hair's
purple in those movies, and it's not

1476
02:00:28.119 --> 02:00:30.000
purple at all. It's like like
gray. It does have a little bit

1477
02:00:30.000 --> 02:00:33.920
of color, but the colors of
the film are like a little they're kind

1478
02:00:33.920 --> 02:00:39.920
of just like kind of tuned down
a little bit, and it kind of

1479
02:00:39.920 --> 02:00:44.880
gives this kind of unique vibe to
the film, especially with kind of the

1480
02:00:45.000 --> 02:00:49.520
architecture, the clothing and everything.
It's just a really beautiful movie. And

1481
02:00:50.199 --> 02:00:56.399
yeah, it's it's if anybody's familiar
with like, you know, these fifties

1482
02:00:56.520 --> 02:01:01.640
sixties eurospy like these comics at what
Satanic's based on. I mean, there's

1483
02:01:01.840 --> 02:01:05.279
kind of a few other films like
this that came in around the time.

1484
02:01:08.039 --> 02:01:12.159
I think The Cat with a Golden
Claws or something like that, or The

1485
02:01:12.159 --> 02:01:16.880
Golden Cat with the Golden Claus with
the Cat Girl I's what it's called,

1486
02:01:18.359 --> 02:01:21.880
and then a Criminal and stuff like
that. So a whole kind of slu

1487
02:01:21.920 --> 02:01:28.079
of these films, and this one
is really good because it mixes a lot

1488
02:01:28.119 --> 02:01:31.079
of horror with it because she's disfigured. It kind of has this like Jacquel

1489
02:01:31.159 --> 02:01:35.319
and hide type thing that she takes
this like drinks this serum and then turns

1490
02:01:35.359 --> 02:01:40.960
into this you know, beautiful woman
and then she's if you know, she's

1491
02:01:41.039 --> 02:01:44.960
hideous on the if she doesn't,
and that's when she starts you know,

1492
02:01:45.199 --> 02:01:49.600
killing and has this rage attack thing. But yeah, eurospy, euro cult

1493
02:01:50.279 --> 02:01:56.079
film. And it also has a
lot of extras on it, which I

1494
02:01:56.159 --> 02:02:00.279
was super happy about. And it's
got a great, great soundtrack. And

1495
02:02:00.600 --> 02:02:02.840
I think I said this last night
in the livestream there's actually an extra on

1496
02:02:02.880 --> 02:02:08.640
this disc that's not listed, and
you won't see it listed anywhere. You

1497
02:02:08.760 --> 02:02:12.680
just have to put the disc in. But don't get crazy. It's nothing

1498
02:02:12.720 --> 02:02:15.720
crazy. If there's something a little
Easter egg that's on there, that's all,

1499
02:02:15.880 --> 02:02:20.000
you know, kind of fun.
But yeah, it's it's really stacked

1500
02:02:20.039 --> 02:02:25.159
for what it was. And also
like having that original language, we got

1501
02:02:25.840 --> 02:02:31.000
new subtitles that were done for it, and then also we have that English

1502
02:02:31.119 --> 02:02:36.079
dub for what it was here in
the US. I don't know where this

1503
02:02:36.199 --> 02:02:41.399
dub came from though. That's the
funny thing, Like there's no evidence of

1504
02:02:41.439 --> 02:02:45.560
it, so I don't know if
it's fan made, if it was professionally

1505
02:02:45.600 --> 02:02:48.399
done, if it was done for
television, because this did play on television

1506
02:02:49.039 --> 02:02:55.399
like in the like eight not probably
eighties, probably about early nineties. It

1507
02:02:55.439 --> 02:02:59.640
played on television. And I don't
know where this dub came from, maybe

1508
02:02:59.720 --> 02:03:02.359
from a studio that put it out. I have no idea, but we

1509
02:03:02.479 --> 02:03:09.039
have it and it's on there,
so yeah, it's again. I would

1510
02:03:09.079 --> 02:03:14.359
listen to the Italian audio because it's
better, but it is. I know.

1511
02:03:14.920 --> 02:03:19.039
There's a whole debate on dubbing and
stuff, and we had We got

1512
02:03:19.039 --> 02:03:26.079
a little negative feedback when we did
Escape from Hell whole because we didn't put

1513
02:03:26.079 --> 02:03:30.600
the English dub on that on that
disc. But the reason why is because

1514
02:03:30.600 --> 02:03:36.079
our version is longer. So we
had that debate, like do people just

1515
02:03:36.199 --> 02:03:41.239
watch the movie like in silence,
like do we just cut it off and

1516
02:03:41.319 --> 02:03:45.119
like they have that, or do
we like then do we put the dialogue

1517
02:03:45.159 --> 02:03:49.720
and then have subtitles for a few
minutes and then But I was like thinking,

1518
02:03:49.760 --> 02:03:55.000
like immediately people are gonna watch this
and then turn it off and email

1519
02:03:55.119 --> 02:04:00.399
us immediately, and we're gonna have
this huge problem with people not understand ending

1520
02:04:00.439 --> 02:04:04.520
even though because I know people don't
read, so we have the longer track

1521
02:04:04.640 --> 02:04:08.359
in the movie. I mean,
people don't read. It's just a fact

1522
02:04:08.359 --> 02:04:14.720
that it's no offense. It's just
people do not read. And you know,

1523
02:04:14.800 --> 02:04:18.520
I just was like, the bonus
is that the film is displayed in

1524
02:04:18.560 --> 02:04:24.640
its original aspect ratio that was never
seen before. And it also has a

1525
02:04:24.720 --> 02:04:28.760
longer movie. It has like an
extra two minutes. It's never been seen.

1526
02:04:29.159 --> 02:04:30.760
So that's like the compromise. So
we left it. We left it

1527
02:04:30.760 --> 02:04:35.359
off. But anyways, Satanic gets
English dub and it's if you want to

1528
02:04:35.399 --> 02:04:41.159
watch that, but I prefer the
Italian audio. Do the actors speak an

1529
02:04:41.159 --> 02:04:46.039
Italian or Yeah? In this movie
it's it's a it's a straight up Italian

1530
02:04:46.079 --> 02:04:49.800
production. So I wasn't sure if
it was like a lot of Gellow where

1531
02:04:49.800 --> 02:04:54.319
they were speaking English, but then
it was dubbed. Uh No, I

1532
02:04:54.319 --> 02:05:03.039
don't think anybody speaks English in in
the movie. Yeah, I don't know.

1533
02:05:03.079 --> 02:05:09.640
It's because it's also it's a Spanish
Italian production. But I don't think

1534
02:05:09.640 --> 02:05:12.680
anybody speaks Spanish in the movie.
It's just that the film, like some

1535
02:05:12.720 --> 02:05:16.079
of the producers and what they were
doing around that time, because these films

1536
02:05:16.119 --> 02:05:23.119
were very, very popular, especially
in the like nineteen sixty eight to nineteen

1537
02:05:23.199 --> 02:05:28.960
seventy two. These were huge moneymakers
in Italy. Any of the thoughts on

1538
02:05:29.039 --> 02:05:32.319
Satanic Dustin excited about this one.
Oh, I can't wait for this one.

1539
02:05:32.680 --> 02:05:34.840
Yeah, this is something that I
mean, this is why I love

1540
02:05:34.960 --> 02:05:40.680
Terror Vision because before last night I
had never heard of this movie. But

1541
02:05:41.079 --> 02:05:45.000
after seeing the trailer for this one
also, I yeah, I couldn't wait

1542
02:05:45.439 --> 02:05:49.479
to get a hold of the copy
of it. So yeah, it's one

1543
02:05:49.479 --> 02:05:56.159
of those movies that's it is kind
of unseen and not known. This one

1544
02:05:56.199 --> 02:05:59.760
was a little fun because we didn't
tease this at all, so no one

1545
02:05:59.800 --> 02:06:06.319
knew that this one was coming.
We didn't share any restoration pictures or tease

1546
02:06:06.520 --> 02:06:13.079
nothing, which is actually that's probably
what we start doing because it's a lot

1547
02:06:13.119 --> 02:06:16.159
more fun that way. And we've
also had like announced and tease a bunch

1548
02:06:16.199 --> 02:06:19.479
of other stuff, but this one
was a lot of fun to unveil.

1549
02:06:20.960 --> 02:06:25.319
Well, speaking of that, one
of the worst kept secrets well, and

1550
02:06:25.359 --> 02:06:29.600
this one was announced, but man, mister Weaiinorski himself wanted to spoil everything.

1551
02:06:30.079 --> 02:06:35.000
Papa Topolis this is this is coming
in May as well, coming on

1552
02:06:35.039 --> 02:06:42.239
Blu Ray and the list of extras
on this is staggering. But Brad's favorite

1553
02:06:42.239 --> 02:06:46.239
part. You can order it in
a bundle with this glorious T shirt.

1554
02:06:46.760 --> 02:06:51.079
This is just brilliant, just the
just you let you know how things run

1555
02:06:51.079 --> 02:06:55.640
at Terra Vision. I came up
with that twelve hours before we went live

1556
02:06:59.359 --> 02:07:01.199
because we have like a nail gun
shirt and we had a Satanic shirt.

1557
02:07:01.199 --> 02:07:04.840
We weren't going to make an old
Master shirt because that'd be weird. But

1558
02:07:06.239 --> 02:07:09.520
yeah, it was Papa Topless.
It's like, man, what can we

1559
02:07:09.600 --> 02:07:12.760
do because a promotion that they did
back in the day, they did socks

1560
02:07:14.199 --> 02:07:17.800
for it. They had Popatapolas socks
during like it's it's initial like DVD release.

1561
02:07:17.920 --> 02:07:20.439
It's like that's I mean, that's
unique. But I don't want to

1562
02:07:20.479 --> 02:07:26.800
do that, and so like I
just I just remember, like listening to

1563
02:07:26.960 --> 02:07:32.159
so many Jim Norsky like commentaries and
interviews, especially in Papa Topolas, he'll

1564
02:07:32.239 --> 02:07:36.399
just flat out he says, I
hate it if he did doesn't like something,

1565
02:07:36.439 --> 02:07:41.680
He'll just say I hate it.
And it was funny because we asked

1566
02:07:41.680 --> 02:07:46.800
for his permission for that shirt like
yesterday and I said, and Ryan was

1567
02:07:46.920 --> 02:07:50.560
like, can you call Wenorsky and
ask him if like this is cool?

1568
02:07:51.359 --> 02:07:54.239
And he was like, do you
think he'll like it? And I was

1569
02:07:54.279 --> 02:07:58.640
like, no, he'll say I
hate it. It's okay, Like that's

1570
02:07:58.720 --> 02:08:01.079
just how Lenorsky is. It's like, uh so, yeah, it's a

1571
02:08:01.159 --> 02:08:05.640
it's a common thing that he says
and this you'll hear it like maybe have

1572
02:08:05.720 --> 02:08:09.640
a drinking game. Drink every time
you hear when Orsky says I hate it,

1573
02:08:09.680 --> 02:08:15.319
and pop a topless and you'll be
drunk. But yeah, this was

1574
02:08:15.520 --> 02:08:18.399
Yeah, we announced this. You
know, Jim has been talking about this.

1575
02:08:18.720 --> 02:08:22.039
We just kind of like ignored it, but he was talking about it

1576
02:08:22.079 --> 02:08:28.960
on his Facebook account for for like
probably a month or two talking about how

1577
02:08:28.600 --> 02:08:33.640
which is a Breastwick was coming out. But yeah, we announced Papa topless

1578
02:08:33.640 --> 02:08:37.600
the way back. And you know, we had a lot of things kind

1579
02:08:37.640 --> 02:08:43.000
of like set that we were going
to do, but we when I asked

1580
02:08:43.079 --> 02:08:46.560
Clay the director, I was like, hey, can you send me this,

1581
02:08:46.560 --> 02:08:48.720
this and this? And he did. He says, Oh, I

1582
02:08:48.760 --> 02:08:54.399
have this other drive and I don't
really know what's on it, and he

1583
02:08:54.439 --> 02:08:56.720
said, I think it's pop a
topless stuff. So I said, yeah,

1584
02:08:56.800 --> 02:09:00.279
just send it. We'll go through
everything and organize it and make sure.

1585
02:09:00.600 --> 02:09:03.199
And it had this fucking work print
on it, and I'm like,

1586
02:09:03.319 --> 02:09:09.279
oh my god, like that is
insane. So we talked to him about

1587
02:09:09.319 --> 02:09:16.039
it because Claim is very very respectful
of everybody that was involved in this movie

1588
02:09:16.119 --> 02:09:20.199
because he had gain a lot of
their trust, especially when Orsky, but

1589
02:09:20.279 --> 02:09:26.880
also the women because they are just
you know, naked. So he was

1590
02:09:26.000 --> 02:09:31.680
very protective of how everything is done
and display which we highly respected. And

1591
02:09:33.159 --> 02:09:35.920
he worked with us of like you
know what needs to be you know,

1592
02:09:37.199 --> 02:09:39.199
cut, what needs to be blurred, you know this type of thing.

1593
02:09:39.239 --> 02:09:43.119
Because the girls only signed up to
be in this part, not in this

1594
02:09:43.279 --> 02:09:46.640
behind the scenes stuff, so you
will see, like I think in the

1595
02:09:46.640 --> 02:09:52.520
workprint, you will see some like
black bars over things, and that is

1596
02:09:52.600 --> 02:09:56.760
due to their request. If you
want to see boobies, watch which is

1597
02:09:56.960 --> 02:10:03.560
Brustwick. There's tons of them,
so much nudity in that movie. But

1598
02:10:03.640 --> 02:10:09.079
anyways, yeah, so we did
the three hour work print and then you

1599
02:10:09.119 --> 02:10:13.680
know, we were talking behind the
scenes and I just I jokingly said,

1600
02:10:13.720 --> 02:10:18.199
what if we put which is a
Breastwick on here? And it had it

1601
02:10:18.239 --> 02:10:22.399
was in kind of this rights limbo
and it was really aggravating, which actually

1602
02:10:22.479 --> 02:10:28.439
delayed the release for it. But
we were like, hey, this is

1603
02:10:28.479 --> 02:10:33.800
a Breastwick and it was jim Is
technically owns the copyright, but it was

1604
02:10:33.880 --> 02:10:37.000
licensed out already, so we had
to go to that rights owner and we're

1605
02:10:37.000 --> 02:10:41.439
like, you can keep your BBD
in print, you can do all this

1606
02:10:41.520 --> 02:10:48.039
stuff, you know, but it
needs to be like we really want this.

1607
02:10:48.920 --> 02:10:54.239
Thank you Craig. I imagine that's
Craig, but we really want this

1608
02:10:54.399 --> 02:11:00.000
version. So we were able to
take that when we did a new dish

1609
02:11:00.359 --> 02:11:05.840
restoration on which is a Breastwick to
create an HD, which was really funny

1610
02:11:05.920 --> 02:11:09.960
to do because it's not a good
movie and we would never release which is

1611
02:11:09.960 --> 02:11:16.399
a Breastwick by itself. But we
put so much time and energy into this

1612
02:11:16.960 --> 02:11:20.359
in this part because I just felt
it really kind of took this release and

1613
02:11:20.399 --> 02:11:26.960
gave it, like really pushed it
over the edge. Because I mean,

1614
02:11:26.000 --> 02:11:28.399
I'm not gonna I don't want to
sound like an asshole, but if we

1615
02:11:28.439 --> 02:11:33.199
don't like get win something for Papadopolis. There's fucking release. I don't know

1616
02:11:33.239 --> 02:11:39.479
what to do. It's literally like
six months and probably even longer doing all

1617
02:11:39.520 --> 02:11:43.760
this stuff, you know, and
it's some new new interviews, archival stuff.

1618
02:11:43.800 --> 02:11:50.600
We you know, dug up quite
a bit of you know, archival

1619
02:11:50.640 --> 02:11:54.960
stuff that never really made it,
and we also kind of redid a lot

1620
02:11:54.960 --> 02:11:58.439
of these extras, and you know, some of the some of the footage

1621
02:11:58.520 --> 02:12:01.880
was rough because when Clay this,
he needed to be out of the way.

1622
02:12:03.800 --> 02:12:05.920
He couldn't have a crew, he
couldn't have like all these things.

1623
02:12:05.920 --> 02:12:11.520
He was literally like under a table
or something or like backed up in a

1624
02:12:11.560 --> 02:12:13.760
corner behind a door to make sure
he was out of everybody's place, and

1625
02:12:13.760 --> 02:12:18.680
he shot on like a literal DV
camera. So a lot of some of

1626
02:12:18.680 --> 02:12:22.920
these extras are done like that,
and yeah, it just took a lot

1627
02:12:22.960 --> 02:12:30.079
of time also organizing them, getting
the files ready. The QC process on

1628
02:12:30.119 --> 02:12:39.119
this was absolutely insane because we watch
everything three times in the QC process,

1629
02:12:39.760 --> 02:12:43.359
So I don't know, that's like
probably like I don't know, maybe ten

1630
02:12:43.560 --> 02:12:50.800
twelve hours of stuff. It's thirty
six hours of QC honor and our people

1631
02:12:50.880 --> 02:12:56.319
hate us, but you know,
it's so funny because sometimes I'll get a

1632
02:12:56.319 --> 02:13:00.000
comments like isn't this too much?
Is this overkill? And I'm like,

1633
02:13:00.119 --> 02:13:01.880
yeah, it is, but what
the fuck am I gonna do? Like

1634
02:13:03.039 --> 02:13:05.760
not put it on there? You
know. The only debate we had was

1635
02:13:05.920 --> 02:13:13.199
House of Julie's strain, because Julie's
gone, and we didn't want to be

1636
02:13:13.239 --> 02:13:16.159
disrespectful, but we were like,
it's an honor to Julie do that.

1637
02:13:16.199 --> 02:13:20.680
I've always adored her since I was
a kid, really watching her movies.

1638
02:13:22.159 --> 02:13:28.239
But yeah, no, it's just
a it's a great package and everybody in

1639
02:13:28.319 --> 02:13:31.239
this movie is wonderful. We did
talk to other people, you know,

1640
02:13:31.279 --> 02:13:35.079
we did talk to Stormy Daniels,
which she declined because she's obviously in this

1641
02:13:35.239 --> 02:13:41.840
whole thing right now. Julie K. Smith declined, I think, you

1642
02:13:41.880 --> 02:13:43.640
know, because a lot of these
women, you know, they're getting older,

1643
02:13:43.680 --> 02:13:48.079
so they don't want to be on
camera that sort of thing. Me,

1644
02:13:48.199 --> 02:13:52.600
she is an absolute all star,
gorgeous as ever, and of course

1645
02:13:52.640 --> 02:13:56.920
she got in front of the camera
because she's doing all these big ass fucking

1646
02:13:56.920 --> 02:14:01.640
commercials, which her trailer real that
Monique Parent trailer reel is on there.

1647
02:14:03.119 --> 02:14:07.479
It's literally her trailer reel that she
gives to big companies, and I think

1648
02:14:07.600 --> 02:14:11.199
her target commercial is on there,
and like all these other big companies,

1649
02:14:11.680 --> 02:14:16.760
she does all this shit. It's
funny. She's great, But yeah,

1650
02:14:16.800 --> 02:14:22.560
it was kind of a big passion
project and I could talk hours for this.

1651
02:14:22.600 --> 02:14:26.319
I think the biggest thing with Papa
Toopolis is even though it's a documentary,

1652
02:14:26.840 --> 02:14:31.159
it doesn't feel like that. It
feels like a comedy. It feels

1653
02:14:31.199 --> 02:14:37.520
like a written comedy and vein of
like American movie meets Kirby enthusiasm of a

1654
02:14:37.560 --> 02:14:43.279
filmmaker who is literally trying to cut
days and cut time just to do it

1655
02:14:43.640 --> 02:14:52.520
to get done quicker. And Jim
is it's so unique as far as like

1656
02:14:52.640 --> 02:14:54.479
who he is. There's not too
many people that could get away with what

1657
02:14:54.640 --> 02:15:00.960
Jim does and says. But he's
such kind of like this teddy bear loving

1658
02:15:01.079 --> 02:15:09.960
person who is also incredibly grumpy and
just like once like he doesn't I think

1659
02:15:09.960 --> 02:15:13.439
at one point, like in the
dock, he's like, so we're gonna

1660
02:15:13.479 --> 02:15:18.000
go out here and shoot this.
We got two lights and we're gonna shoot

1661
02:15:18.000 --> 02:15:20.119
the rest of this bullshit, you
know, and he just like he talks

1662
02:15:20.159 --> 02:15:26.880
about movies bullshit the entire time.
But yeah, it's a it was a

1663
02:15:26.199 --> 02:15:31.399
I love this movie and it was
a big inspiration when I saw it back

1664
02:15:31.399 --> 02:15:35.880
in the day, because that's the
other thing and then inspires you as a

1665
02:15:35.920 --> 02:15:41.079
filmmaker, probably of what not to
do, but yeah, I love it.

1666
02:15:43.159 --> 02:15:46.319
If you are watching this and you've
been watching the channel for a long

1667
02:15:46.359 --> 02:15:50.520
time, this phrase restore the way
Norski versus probably common to you. Will

1668
02:15:50.640 --> 02:15:54.640
uses that all the time, and
I will say this visual essay on here.

1669
02:15:54.960 --> 02:15:58.920
You might see somebody that looks a
lot like Will wearing a wig and

1670
02:15:58.520 --> 02:16:05.359
just do it a very love letter
specifically to y Norski. I will say

1671
02:16:05.399 --> 02:16:07.760
no more because the comedy hits.
If you watch that for the first one,

1672
02:16:09.159 --> 02:16:13.680
it's it's very funny. It was
funny because when we went because Clay.

1673
02:16:13.760 --> 02:16:18.000
The part of our deal with Clay, which I usually do that is

1674
02:16:18.039 --> 02:16:22.279
all the filmmakers because it's a trust
thing, is I say, if they

1675
02:16:22.319 --> 02:16:26.840
want to be involved, I have
them give the green light on everything.

1676
02:16:26.880 --> 02:16:31.159
We don't do any extras, which
you notice because we went back and forth

1677
02:16:31.120 --> 02:16:37.000
on this with kind of editing things
together. Is that Clay watched it and

1678
02:16:37.040 --> 02:16:43.559
he like didn't understand what was happening, and he was like, I guess

1679
02:16:43.639 --> 02:16:46.280
this is funny, and I'm like, it is funny. He's like I

1680
02:16:46.680 --> 02:16:50.239
but he's like it's fine. He's
like, there's nothing offensive. It's just

1681
02:16:50.280 --> 02:16:54.399
like, what are you guys doing? And I was like, I don't

1682
02:16:54.440 --> 02:16:58.000
really know. I was like,
these guys are doing their own thing.

1683
02:16:58.079 --> 02:17:01.239
I was like, I trust them. I think it's funny, and he

1684
02:17:01.399 --> 02:17:09.680
was like, whatever, Dustin,
you want Norsky guy at all looking forward

1685
02:17:09.719 --> 02:17:13.120
to this. I've seen I've seen
why Norski films in the past, but

1686
02:17:13.399 --> 02:17:20.399
I don't think I'm the fan that
Dodson is. But everybody's seen a Why

1687
02:17:20.479 --> 02:17:22.600
Norski film at some point. But
I love they don't even know you did,

1688
02:17:22.680 --> 02:17:26.680
That's the crazy thing. But yeah, I love. I love you

1689
02:17:26.680 --> 02:17:31.760
know, any documentaries about you know, making movies and behind the scenes and

1690
02:17:31.760 --> 02:17:35.399
all that. So yeah, I'm
all over this. Uh. This is

1691
02:17:35.479 --> 02:17:41.000
one of those things that if you
are into like genuine like brand said,

1692
02:17:41.079 --> 02:17:45.920
genuinely inspiring. This is just like
a scrappy sort of documentary, just again

1693
02:17:46.040 --> 02:17:50.440
like that Robert Rodriguez Lloyd cop and
type of go out and just make the

1694
02:17:50.440 --> 02:17:54.239
fucking movie already type of feeling.
It's great. Now you can have a

1695
02:17:54.319 --> 02:18:01.799
killer weekend by reading uh like Rebel
out a Crew, watching American Movie and

1696
02:18:01.840 --> 02:18:07.000
watching Papa Toopoulos. I feel like
you could make any movie you wanted to

1697
02:18:07.079 --> 02:18:15.760
do, so I agree, uh, Will says whatever, lool, I

1698
02:18:15.799 --> 02:18:22.000
will take that rout. It's funny, you know, because the thing about

1699
02:18:22.000 --> 02:18:26.680
Clay is he's so successful in what
he does, and I just wish he

1700
02:18:26.719 --> 02:18:33.520
would like made more documentaries. But
he's he's such a funny He's such a

1701
02:18:33.559 --> 02:18:37.239
funny dude, and he was really
just fun to work with and trust that

1702
02:18:37.239 --> 02:18:41.280
that's one hundred percent because you know
the movie, you know, we licensed

1703
02:18:41.319 --> 02:18:46.799
it from him, right, So
yeah it was. But yeah, this

1704
02:18:46.799 --> 02:18:48.959
this was, this was this movie
was a long time coming like this.

1705
02:18:50.440 --> 02:18:54.319
I mean, it's kind of really
it's it's weird when you uh, you

1706
02:18:54.319 --> 02:18:56.360
know, I'm sure if Craig's still
in here, you can, you know,

1707
02:18:56.479 --> 02:19:01.920
probably talk about this a little bit. Is that work on something you

1708
02:19:01.959 --> 02:19:05.360
know, you conjure upt the idea, you talk about getting the movie out,

1709
02:19:05.680 --> 02:19:07.559
you know, or you talk about
the movie you want to do.

1710
02:19:07.040 --> 02:19:11.000
You know, you search the rights, you find the rights, you create

1711
02:19:11.040 --> 02:19:15.920
a relationship, you know, you
do all of this other stuff, you

1712
02:19:15.920 --> 02:19:18.559
know, getting it together. You're
you know, you do your restorations,

1713
02:19:18.639 --> 02:19:24.040
you do your you know, interviews, you do your behind the scenes stuff.

1714
02:19:24.079 --> 02:19:26.639
You get all the packaging together,
you put it up, and it's

1715
02:19:26.680 --> 02:19:31.600
like putting your kid. Like it's
literally from birth to like giving them out

1716
02:19:31.719 --> 02:19:37.600
to like graduating, and you take
you have this journey with the movies.

1717
02:19:37.680 --> 02:19:41.159
So that's why I think, you
know, companies, when something doesn't do

1718
02:19:41.280 --> 02:19:45.639
well, it kind of hurts,
right because you spend you know, none

1719
02:19:45.680 --> 02:19:48.280
of this stuff is really done quickly. There are films that you can like

1720
02:19:48.840 --> 02:19:54.559
things do come together nicely and quicker
and easier, but something like this,

1721
02:19:54.799 --> 02:20:01.959
it took you know, we announced
that in like May of last year or

1722
02:20:01.959 --> 02:20:05.079
something. August. I think this
is one of the August titles. Oh

1723
02:20:05.159 --> 02:20:09.280
August, we did that. Okay, Well, we acquired it like probably

1724
02:20:09.840 --> 02:20:16.879
I would say, February, January, February of yeah, no, yeah,

1725
02:20:16.920 --> 02:20:20.399
handing our baby. It's exactly what
it's like, probably like January or

1726
02:20:20.479 --> 02:20:26.719
February of like twenty twenty three,
I would say, And yeah, I

1727
02:20:26.719 --> 02:20:33.959
mean it's it's been like a year
and some change and that's a long time

1728
02:20:33.120 --> 02:20:37.719
to my movie. You talk about
almost every day and getting things together.

1729
02:20:39.040 --> 02:20:46.399
So yeah, it's it's it's a
it's it's a hilarious kind of part.

1730
02:20:46.479 --> 02:20:52.319
But it also like makes you happy
that you get to see it off end

1731
02:20:52.319 --> 02:20:56.639
of the world. Yeah. Well, speaking of films with the journey,

1732
02:20:58.200 --> 02:21:03.239
let's get over the nail gun mass
occur. This is everything I said applies

1733
02:21:03.280 --> 02:21:07.440
to this one too, right,
Yeah, first off, the big thing

1734
02:21:07.639 --> 02:21:11.159
somehow a lot of people missed in
the announcement that this is a four k

1735
02:21:11.360 --> 02:21:16.879
UHD release. Yeah, I saw
like five or eight comments somebody said,

1736
02:21:16.879 --> 02:21:18.959
oh god, this is UHD.
Well then I have to get it.

1737
02:21:18.040 --> 02:21:22.280
Yeah, this is a this is
what I would call a massive upgrade over

1738
02:21:22.280 --> 02:21:26.719
the previous releases that we've had on
Blu Ray. And just like Papatopoulos,

1739
02:21:26.879 --> 02:21:31.959
this one is just fully stacked to
the gills with extras. Brad tell us

1740
02:21:33.000 --> 02:21:35.200
all about nail gun and also,
by the way, bundle with a really

1741
02:21:35.200 --> 02:21:41.520
great shirt as well for this one. Cheaper than a chance. I don't

1742
02:21:41.520 --> 02:21:43.959
know, they shoot a lot of
nails. I don't know how expensive nails

1743
02:21:43.959 --> 02:21:48.760
are in those compression cancers. Anyways, Yeah, I think, well,

1744
02:21:48.120 --> 02:21:52.360
to be fair, I don't think
when we first announced this movie, we

1745
02:21:52.360 --> 02:21:58.200
were just saying we were doing a
Blu ray because the previous Blu ray that

1746
02:21:58.280 --> 02:22:01.399
exists, which have the same transfer
on from a code red in eighty eight

1747
02:22:01.440 --> 02:22:11.520
films release. You know, Bill
had his thing that he did. And

1748
02:22:11.639 --> 02:22:16.920
I mean, even though Bill was
a asshole at times, I mean I

1749
02:22:16.959 --> 02:22:22.840
knew Bill personally, he was a
pioneer in this industry. Like even if

1750
02:22:22.840 --> 02:22:28.319
he was shitty to a lot of
people and said some awful things, doesn't

1751
02:22:28.399 --> 02:22:31.799
change the fact that he is one
of the very first people to start,

1752
02:22:31.319 --> 02:22:37.799
you know, the DVD boutique business, and I was able to pick up

1753
02:22:37.879 --> 02:22:41.799
his movies at Best Buy for Christ's
sakes back then when he was doing you

1754
02:22:41.799 --> 02:22:46.479
know, DVDs and whatnot. So
yeah, but Bill had a thing of

1755
02:22:46.559 --> 02:22:50.360
doing things where he did things a
little bit cheaper. He wasn't too keen

1756
02:22:50.479 --> 02:22:56.559
on technology or wanted to spend the
time on certain things. So I always

1757
02:22:56.559 --> 02:23:01.159
felt the restoration on this could have
been better, especially this is like one

1758
02:23:01.159 --> 02:23:05.719
of his first like Blu rays that
he did, because he did like four

1759
02:23:05.799 --> 02:23:11.719
Blu rays at once when he launched, when he started doing Blu rays.

1760
02:23:11.760 --> 02:23:18.479
It was like voices from Beyond Neon
Maniacs, Neil Gunmasker, and I think

1761
02:23:18.639 --> 02:23:22.319
just before Dawn and maybe Savage Streets
was in there too, and so he

1762
02:23:22.399 --> 02:23:28.280
launched those first style. I remember
buying that bundle and then he wrote to

1763
02:23:28.319 --> 02:23:31.319
me, it's like, don't be
an asshole when you get these something like

1764
02:23:31.360 --> 02:23:33.920
that, because I gave him a
hard time on a couple of DVDs back

1765
02:23:33.920 --> 02:23:37.120
in the day. But anyways,
yeah, I just felt it could be

1766
02:23:37.600 --> 02:23:41.479
improved on. So that's what we
were doing. We were doing a Blu

1767
02:23:41.639 --> 02:23:46.000
ray and once we kind of started
doing things, we found a couple more

1768
02:23:46.040 --> 02:23:50.239
elements for it. And when we
had everything at the lab, you know,

1769
02:23:50.879 --> 02:23:54.680
we were looking at everything and we
were like, well, UHD might

1770
02:23:54.719 --> 02:23:58.719
be possible on this. Let's just
test it out. So he did a

1771
02:23:58.799 --> 02:24:03.399
ten on the first reel kind of
to like see how it look, and

1772
02:24:03.760 --> 02:24:07.719
we looked at it and it was
like, okay, like this this is

1773
02:24:07.760 --> 02:24:11.760
actually doable. It was kind of
a stretch and it was really hard,

1774
02:24:13.040 --> 02:24:16.440
but you know, I shared some
side by sides and we have a restoration

1775
02:24:16.600 --> 02:24:22.239
trailer for you to actually see like
how different it actually looks and it's and

1776
02:24:22.280 --> 02:24:26.399
it's it's very very noticeable for me
at least, I know, so I

1777
02:24:26.440 --> 02:24:31.120
felt comfortable, you know, doing
a UHD, which obviously ups the price

1778
02:24:31.360 --> 02:24:37.879
on the cost to the customer,
but also for us too because UHD,

1779
02:24:37.239 --> 02:24:39.680
you know, you actually have to
get a license if you do it properly.

1780
02:24:41.000 --> 02:24:43.200
You know, I don't know how
many people go around it, but

1781
02:24:43.239 --> 02:24:46.520
you actually have to get a license
to do UHD, and then you have

1782
02:24:46.600 --> 02:24:52.440
to pay per unit technically, so
that is costly, and then also just

1783
02:24:52.559 --> 02:24:56.680
materialize. It's it's uh, you
know, it takes everything kind of takes

1784
02:24:56.719 --> 02:25:01.239
longer, everything is, you know, I mean some people say it's triple.

1785
02:25:01.680 --> 02:25:05.840
It's pretty close, like it's it's
it's not cheap, you know,

1786
02:25:05.879 --> 02:25:13.479
especially just doing the HDR. HDR
is incredibly costly, and you know,

1787
02:25:13.520 --> 02:25:16.760
you you try to do things with
a budget, but at the same time

1788
02:25:16.840 --> 02:25:20.959
you need the work to be one
hundred percent. So it's it's it's uh,

1789
02:25:22.040 --> 02:25:26.040
it's a little rough at times trying
to make those decisions. So,

1790
02:25:26.200 --> 02:25:31.399
yeah, we were able to do
four k UHD with HDR color grade because

1791
02:25:31.440 --> 02:25:35.520
I really don't see the point of
doing UHD if you don't have HDR and

1792
02:25:35.559 --> 02:25:39.479
then we have the two I'm going
to try to because you can't read your

1793
02:25:39.479 --> 02:25:43.840
screen, don't don't show. I'm
going to see how well I can remember.

1794
02:25:43.200 --> 02:25:48.120
So we have two archiital restorations on
here. We have the four x

1795
02:25:48.159 --> 02:25:54.319
three and then the wide screen that
they did, which is fine, but

1796
02:25:54.399 --> 02:25:58.559
it's not the original aspect ratio for
the movie. I just think they did

1797
02:25:58.559 --> 02:26:03.559
that because people would complain about black
bars on the side. Right, we

1798
02:26:03.600 --> 02:26:09.479
have a new commentary from the Hysteria
Continues, which I know that's confusing to

1799
02:26:09.520 --> 02:26:13.959
people because the eighty eight films had
a Hysteria Continues commentary, but eighty eight

1800
02:26:13.959 --> 02:26:18.840
films wouldn't let us have that.
So I just reached out Staria Continues as

1801
02:26:18.879 --> 02:26:22.760
like, so silly, but can
you do it again? But they were

1802
02:26:22.840 --> 02:26:26.680
kind of thrilled to do it,
so they did it again. You know.

1803
02:26:26.879 --> 02:26:33.319
I had these two wonderful guys do
a new commentary for us, even

1804
02:26:33.319 --> 02:26:37.879
though did my thing of the founder
of reconnected on here. Yeah, I

1805
02:26:37.959 --> 02:26:43.799
made sure that was there. There
was an archival commentary from Lloyd. Lloyd

1806
02:26:43.840 --> 02:26:50.079
Crier runs Texas fright Mare. He
is the guy that created that and he

1807
02:26:50.360 --> 02:26:54.840
is he is the owner of Nail
Gun Mascer. So it was kind of

1808
02:26:54.840 --> 02:27:01.120
fun working with him because he's a
super fan of the movie and he owns

1809
02:27:01.159 --> 02:27:07.000
it and he has so much more
like memorabilia. There's a new interview on

1810
02:27:07.040 --> 02:27:11.399
here. Ryan actually did all these
interviews, by the way, right,

1811
02:27:11.000 --> 02:27:16.200
yeah, you did all these new
interviews. Went about that for a seconds.

1812
02:27:16.200 --> 02:27:20.120
I don't want to steal your thunder. I mean there, I'll just

1813
02:27:20.120 --> 02:27:22.760
say me like, I'm personally invested
at this point. All of them are

1814
02:27:22.760 --> 02:27:26.799
great. The big one like Rocky
Patterson, who's the This is plenty for

1815
02:27:26.799 --> 02:27:31.120
a film like this. He's like
the number one build person in this movie.

1816
02:27:31.200 --> 02:27:35.479
And technically he's the doctor, which
is barely a doctor in this movie.

1817
02:27:35.479 --> 02:27:41.120
He he know, like, I've
talked on the phone doctor, He's

1818
02:27:41.159 --> 02:27:45.600
an awful doctor. I've probably talked
on the phone with him at this point

1819
02:27:45.600 --> 02:27:50.879
for a combined about twelve or fourteen
hours. He literally called me this week,

1820
02:27:50.000 --> 02:27:52.159
not even knowing that we were announcing
it this week. He's just,

1821
02:27:52.399 --> 02:27:56.799
hey, just check it up on
you from down here and beautiful down Texas,

1822
02:27:56.840 --> 02:28:01.000
and yeah, we just chat randomly. Michelle Meyer was stoked to be

1823
02:28:01.040 --> 02:28:05.440
able to talk about this one of
the big ones. Connie Spear was very

1824
02:28:05.879 --> 02:28:09.159
like, didn't even want to do
an interview, but she's like, I'll

1825
02:28:09.200 --> 02:28:13.639
do an audio interview and then afterwards, if you let me hear what you're

1826
02:28:13.639 --> 02:28:16.399
gonna print, so I can,
you know, be okay with it.

1827
02:28:16.280 --> 02:28:20.680
She she got done and she's like, thank you guys for being you know,

1828
02:28:20.719 --> 02:28:22.639
making me feel comfortable. This was
great. I'm happy to have finally

1829
02:28:22.680 --> 02:28:28.399
done this. Everybody just loved being
a part of this. And if you

1830
02:28:28.520 --> 02:28:31.159
really want to see like one of
the funniest ones, Kick Connolly, She's

1831
02:28:31.159 --> 02:28:35.799
in this movie for less than maybe
three or four minutes and she's just like,

1832
02:28:37.440 --> 02:28:39.959
Yeah. Terry Lofton came down to
the strip club I was working at

1833
02:28:39.920 --> 02:28:43.399
and said, anybody here with big
tits that want to be in a movie?

1834
02:28:43.680 --> 02:28:46.760
And so I said, yeah,
why not? And it's it's great.

1835
02:28:46.479 --> 02:28:50.479
The interviews are super fun. Stoked
on him. The commentary with me

1836
02:28:50.520 --> 02:28:56.120
and Will this is the first commentary
we ever recorded. We are pretty damn

1837
02:28:56.120 --> 02:28:58.879
proud of it. But overall,
this release, definitive release, Like there's

1838
02:29:00.079 --> 02:29:05.000
nothing that we'll ever be able to
come close to this in any shape or

1839
02:29:05.040 --> 02:29:09.399
form. Yeah, yeah, because
we have you know, the the interviews.

1840
02:29:09.799 --> 02:29:16.840
We have archival interviews with Terry Lofton
who has passed, interview with Whitey

1841
02:29:16.879 --> 02:29:22.280
Thomas, who's a composer who was
passed. Those are both our archival.

1842
02:29:22.399 --> 02:29:31.360
We had a new essay from Alexandra
Heller Nichols Nicholas. And then when I

1843
02:29:31.399 --> 02:29:35.239
was doing like research on because I
try to like find out like what other

1844
02:29:35.879 --> 02:29:39.920
you any other companies, like a
French company released a movie and do they

1845
02:29:41.000 --> 02:29:46.000
have any extras? Like how can
we reach out to them and license their

1846
02:29:46.079 --> 02:29:52.920
extra? Well, I was like
on YouTube and I found in yes Mina

1847
02:29:54.000 --> 02:29:56.600
which I watched her stuff on rewind
Zone on Route More, but she did

1848
02:29:56.680 --> 02:30:00.879
a piece on it. So I
reached out to the Rupe More and we

1849
02:30:01.000 --> 02:30:03.920
put that on there. And then
yeah, the Alamo draft House screening,

1850
02:30:05.239 --> 02:30:07.040
I'm trying to look at here,
I can't. Yeah, the locations feature

1851
02:30:07.040 --> 02:30:13.479
at and nailed. Oh, it
would have been so much more helpful.

1852
02:30:13.799 --> 02:30:15.959
You told me not to do anything, so I left at the first time.

1853
02:30:16.000 --> 02:30:18.360
Oh, I I just didn't want
you to take away your screen.

1854
02:30:18.559 --> 02:30:22.600
But that's fine. So, yeah, the Alamo Draft House screening is that's

1855
02:30:22.639 --> 02:30:28.479
an old archival stuff location feature at
so the location feature at and the nailed

1856
02:30:28.159 --> 02:30:35.319
the making of That's from Synaps off
their DVD. Don and Jerry were very

1857
02:30:35.360 --> 02:30:39.760
generous and letting us use those nail
gun Q and A with Joe Bob.

1858
02:30:39.840 --> 02:30:43.040
I'll take some bloopers, which I
think that I'll take some bloopers. They're

1859
02:30:43.200 --> 02:30:48.719
disappeared. The only way they survived
is through that Synapse DVD. No one

1860
02:30:48.719 --> 02:30:54.319
knows where those went. Wow like, because those were actually film reels that

1861
02:30:54.360 --> 02:30:58.040
were scanned back like when they did
that DVD. No one knows where they're

1862
02:30:58.079 --> 02:31:03.840
at. So those are actually extracted
from the Synapse DVD and put on there.

1863
02:31:05.760 --> 02:31:11.079
Yeah, promotional trailer which there's actually
no trailer for this movie. Apparently

1864
02:31:11.200 --> 02:31:13.360
I didn't know that. I tried
finding a trailer. All there is is

1865
02:31:13.719 --> 02:31:18.840
this promotional sales trailer that they cut
together to sell the movie back in the

1866
02:31:18.959 --> 02:31:26.879
day to video companies. And then
we created new subtitles which Michael Keene did,

1867
02:31:26.959 --> 02:31:31.600
which they're kind of funny because there's
some things in the movie. It

1868
02:31:31.639 --> 02:31:39.200
was it'd be actually fun to kind
of go back and it would be funny

1869
02:31:39.239 --> 02:31:43.520
to do that is probably an extra
is Michael Keene and I talking back and

1870
02:31:43.600 --> 02:31:46.959
forth of trying to figure out what
the characters say in the movie, because

1871
02:31:48.000 --> 02:31:52.319
there's a couple moments in the movie
where you have no clue, Like there's

1872
02:31:52.360 --> 02:31:56.799
that scene where there's people are having
sex up against a tree yep, and

1873
02:31:58.600 --> 02:32:01.159
she says, God, I can't
if you. If you when you watch

1874
02:32:01.239 --> 02:32:07.000
the movie, she says the most
ridiculous things cue him and I don't know

1875
02:32:07.040 --> 02:32:13.000
if they're ridiculous or if she's just
mumbling and we didn't understand, but I

1876
02:32:13.280 --> 02:32:16.399
wish I I like I would write
back to Michael and I was like,

1877
02:32:16.479 --> 02:32:18.680
I think she's saying this, and
he was like, that doesn't make any

1878
02:32:18.760 --> 02:32:22.280
sense. And I was like,
well, we could put like in audible,

1879
02:32:22.399 --> 02:32:28.399
but like just put this because it
sounds like, you know, fuck

1880
02:32:28.479 --> 02:32:33.360
me, like a TV hot box
or something like that. That's like like

1881
02:32:33.600 --> 02:32:35.360
that's the type of language they use. And I'm like, that doesn't Like

1882
02:32:35.399 --> 02:32:39.760
who sells that. I don't think
that's what it was. But it's it's

1883
02:32:39.959 --> 02:32:45.719
very it's just not it's it was
funny. And there was like maybe five

1884
02:32:45.799 --> 02:32:48.559
or six senes and we were just
like going back and forth. He was

1885
02:32:48.600 --> 02:32:50.079
sending them over and he's like,
do you think they're saying this? And

1886
02:32:50.120 --> 02:32:54.799
I'm like, I don't know,
you know, well, we'll try it,

1887
02:32:54.959 --> 02:32:58.360
but yeah, a lot of fun. Yeah, I saw the guy

1888
02:32:58.360 --> 02:33:03.120
who wasn't Yeah, I'll tell you
what I've never encountered something. I thought

1889
02:33:03.200 --> 02:33:11.000
forums were weird. Reddit four k
uhd forums, Holy shit, people are

1890
02:33:11.200 --> 02:33:16.399
nuts. You talk about Blu Ray
Bros. These four k bros Are insane.

1891
02:33:16.479 --> 02:33:22.799
I got yelled at for releasing nail
Gun Masker. I was. I

1892
02:33:22.159 --> 02:33:26.559
actually was said to me, you
waste your time with this trash and we

1893
02:33:26.639 --> 02:33:31.719
don't have the last Samurai on four
kuhd. That was the movie they choose.

1894
02:33:31.319 --> 02:33:39.040
And I'm like, okay, start
a label, see if you can

1895
02:33:39.040 --> 02:33:43.440
get Samurai. I don't know,
like you know, it's just like it's

1896
02:33:43.479 --> 02:33:50.000
so it's so weird to me,
like like honestly, it's so. It's

1897
02:33:50.079 --> 02:33:56.479
it's funny because like Twitter is probably
the most positive place for stuff at this

1898
02:33:56.600 --> 02:34:01.639
point, and it's odd that that
I'm saying that face book is weird,

1899
02:34:01.239 --> 02:34:07.079
the forum is fine, Discords really
cool. But yeah, I just I

1900
02:34:07.120 --> 02:34:13.760
got saw. I saw so much
negativity and I just laid into people.

1901
02:34:13.799 --> 02:34:16.520
I just was like, you're not
gonna buy anything ever from us anywcause there's

1902
02:34:16.559 --> 02:34:20.040
no way you're gonna buy fucking you
know, copper Head or fucking Hollowgate.

1903
02:34:20.239 --> 02:34:24.920
So I was like, what is
like, what exactly is your problem?

1904
02:34:24.159 --> 02:34:28.239
Like, like, just don't buy
it. And they're like, you're taking

1905
02:34:28.280 --> 02:34:33.399
advantage of us in the format,
and I'm like, just please block me,

1906
02:34:35.159 --> 02:34:37.520
like that's I I don't need your
money. You just go leave me

1907
02:34:37.639 --> 02:34:43.760
alone, you know. And I
was like they're they're they're getting downvoted,

1908
02:34:43.760 --> 02:34:46.159
but they're still like going at it
like I'm the bad guy. And I

1909
02:34:46.239 --> 02:34:48.879
was like, I don't know,
man, I just want to release these

1910
02:34:48.879 --> 02:34:54.319
fucking movies that are cool. You
know. I understand Panic Room is it

1911
02:34:54.479 --> 02:35:00.360
an UHD? But I want it
too. But like, oh okay,

1912
02:35:00.840 --> 02:35:07.879
you know, yeah, I see
poor Craig getting nailed at. I love

1913
02:35:07.959 --> 02:35:09.200
that. I just I had to
look it up when you said that to

1914
02:35:09.239 --> 02:35:13.600
see what all the comments said.
One of the top voted comments says,

1915
02:35:13.639 --> 02:35:16.799
these screenshots make it look like some
guy just grabbed a camera and filmed this

1916
02:35:16.840 --> 02:35:20.440
guy murdering people. And then you
responded, that's usually how movies are made,

1917
02:35:20.440 --> 02:35:26.440
by someone grabbing a camera and filming
people doing stuff. I mean,

1918
02:35:26.559 --> 02:35:31.200
I just yeah, it's like it's
like, I don't know. And here's

1919
02:35:31.239 --> 02:35:35.520
the thing is, I don't think
they understand, like how they just don't

1920
02:35:35.600 --> 02:35:41.319
understand how things work. Is that
they I don't take a lot of people

1921
02:35:41.399 --> 02:35:46.520
and they use like they hear these
terms like color grading and rest I mean,

1922
02:35:46.680 --> 02:35:48.680
they don't know what any of this
stuff means, and then they try

1923
02:35:48.719 --> 02:35:52.120
to use it to attack, you
know, they're like, oh, you

1924
02:35:52.159 --> 02:35:56.120
have low hanging fruit, do something
cheap to make a lot of money.

1925
02:35:56.159 --> 02:36:00.440
I was like, if you think
fucking nail Gun was cheap, literally a

1926
02:36:00.520 --> 02:36:03.959
most expensive release we've ever done,
and it's a if you if you look

1927
02:36:05.000 --> 02:36:09.559
on it, there's eight thousand of
those made, right, We did eight

1928
02:36:09.639 --> 02:36:16.520
thousand nail guns, and the minimum
that a movie costs and manufacture like that

1929
02:36:16.680 --> 02:36:20.440
is like twelve dollars. So do
the fucking math right there and you'll understand

1930
02:36:20.479 --> 02:36:24.319
how much nail Gun actually cost us. And that's just to fucking manufacturerer.

1931
02:36:24.120 --> 02:36:30.879
That doesn't count the restoration, the
extras and authoring and all this, the

1932
02:36:30.920 --> 02:36:35.600
fucking color grading and HDR. Now, it is insane amount of money that

1933
02:36:35.639 --> 02:36:39.399
we spent on this, But it's
not the point. I'm not asking for

1934
02:36:39.520 --> 02:36:46.559
charity it's yeah, I know,
right, it's so funny, like the

1935
02:36:46.600 --> 02:36:52.040
biggest experts are people that have no
idea what they're actually talking about. Nail

1936
02:36:52.040 --> 02:36:56.120
Gun Samurai sounds like a really bad
movie, by the way, but yeah,

1937
02:36:56.159 --> 02:36:58.280
it's just like, you know,
the thing is is like this is

1938
02:36:58.319 --> 02:37:05.120
a full hashion project. Yeah,
when we make money on this is gonna

1939
02:37:05.159 --> 02:37:09.559
be a while, like we've already
spent all the money, like we were

1940
02:37:09.600 --> 02:37:15.520
just trying to recoup at this point. But anyways, yeah, I mean

1941
02:37:15.520 --> 02:37:18.360
the ol gun is a fucking great, great time. Man. It was

1942
02:37:18.680 --> 02:37:22.440
a lot of fun to do and
we love doing it and it's yeah,

1943
02:37:22.559 --> 02:37:26.319
I mean, we wouldn't do anything
different. And also that slip covers in

1944
02:37:26.399 --> 02:37:35.000
Boss, by the way, it
looks really like cool and slick cool and

1945
02:37:35.079 --> 02:37:37.920
Si it did not look great in
the stream last night. No, no,

1946
02:37:39.000 --> 02:37:41.200
it looks way so glossy. Dude. I don't know. I mean,

1947
02:37:41.239 --> 02:37:46.799
I understand. It's always I always
laugh because I watched those like people

1948
02:37:46.079 --> 02:37:50.600
cover like you know, Blu rays
for companies and stuff on YouTube or our

1949
02:37:50.639 --> 02:37:56.760
stuff, and they like they like
try to hold their hands so it doesn't

1950
02:37:56.360 --> 02:38:03.639
even so it's like always looks like
shit like don't even try. So yeah,

1951
02:38:03.799 --> 02:38:07.799
it's uh anyways, yeah, don't
don't go to the reddit four k.

1952
02:38:07.040 --> 02:38:09.959
The other things like the Blue Teak, Blu Ray place that's wine.

1953
02:38:11.639 --> 02:38:16.920
All that stuff's cool, but four
k uhd like and then you get accused

1954
02:38:16.000 --> 02:38:22.680
for making one post and then he
accused for slinging your shit and I'm like,

1955
02:38:22.719 --> 02:38:26.239
I'm just trying to let you know
it's there, like, you know,

1956
02:38:26.399 --> 02:38:31.399
because most people appreciate one you telling
them that the movies available, and

1957
02:38:31.479 --> 02:38:35.040
also like it's one stock. I've
always had like a anytime I post a

1958
02:38:35.040 --> 02:38:39.879
low stock post, I ninety nine
percent of the people are like, oh

1959
02:38:39.879 --> 02:38:41.760
wow, thank you for telling me. I'm gonna go pick it up now.

1960
02:38:43.479 --> 02:38:45.520
But when you do it on Reddit, man, they're like, oh,

1961
02:38:45.559 --> 02:38:48.120
you're just pathetic. You're just trying
to sell it. And I'm like,

1962
02:38:48.399 --> 02:38:54.799
I'm just letting the people know.
Man, I'm just trying to just

1963
02:38:54.840 --> 02:38:58.680
trying to let you know that it's
low. Just delete the post or block

1964
02:38:58.760 --> 02:39:03.559
me if you don't want to see
it. Apologies, Dustin any thoughts on

1965
02:39:03.639 --> 02:39:07.120
nail gun. Oh, I would
much prefer this on four K than the

1966
02:39:07.159 --> 02:39:13.680
last samurai. So there's it is
a weird movie to choose, like,

1967
02:39:13.719 --> 02:39:18.799
there's so many like and it's funny
they don't think that we like those movies.

1968
02:39:18.920 --> 02:39:22.360
That's always like the accusation and it's
like, no, I love all

1969
02:39:22.399 --> 02:39:26.399
the same stuff that you do.
It's just that I love this stuff a

1970
02:39:26.440 --> 02:39:30.120
little more. And this stuff is
No studio is going to do this.

1971
02:39:31.000 --> 02:39:35.360
The studio is going to release their
own, you know, last Samurai Panic

1972
02:39:35.440 --> 02:39:37.879
Room, which I don't know what
Panic Room is getting release, which is

1973
02:39:37.000 --> 02:39:41.079
kind of ridiculous. But you know, we're not going to be able to

1974
02:39:41.079 --> 02:39:46.600
march down and be like, hey, can we get Panic Room. Ain't

1975
02:39:46.600 --> 02:39:52.840
gonna happen, you know. Well, let's uh highlight the fact that we

1976
02:39:52.920 --> 02:39:58.239
also have multiple bundles. You can
get bundles with all four films. You

1977
02:39:58.239 --> 02:40:01.280
can get bundles with all four films
and then ulp, you can get the

1978
02:40:01.319 --> 02:40:05.000
Satanic Bundle, the nail Gun Bundle, the Popatopolis Bundle. There's bundles galore

1979
02:40:05.680 --> 02:40:09.639
on top of that. Like Brad
mentioned, there's a contemporary sale. Ten

1980
02:40:09.719 --> 02:40:13.079
titles all on sale. If you
get them with out slip covers, it's

1981
02:40:13.079 --> 02:40:16.360
only one hundred and forty bucks.
You get them with slip covers, its

1982
02:40:16.360 --> 02:40:20.040
one hundred and ninety. Every title
is discounted by itself as well if you

1983
02:40:20.079 --> 02:40:24.360
just want to get one or two. But the bundle price is ridiculously good

1984
02:40:24.840 --> 02:40:33.280
for these. It is too cheap
to be frank, there's a UHD in

1985
02:40:33.319 --> 02:40:37.879
there. Yeah, when the Screaming
Starts as four K. These are all

1986
02:40:37.000 --> 02:40:39.959
newer films, and a lot of
newer films don't get a lot of love

1987
02:40:41.000 --> 02:40:43.760
from people from some of these boutiques. So I know you shared some love

1988
02:40:43.799 --> 02:40:46.840
for one or two of these last
night. Any others that you want to

1989
02:40:46.879 --> 02:40:50.120
highlight, maybe some different ones today. Yeah, I mean one, I

1990
02:40:50.159 --> 02:40:54.319
love everything, and yeah, I
want to do more contemporary stuff. But

1991
02:40:56.559 --> 02:41:01.959
again, it just people don't gravitate
towards it because it's it's not old enough,

1992
02:41:01.280 --> 02:41:07.200
it seems. Ryan and I talk
internally that if it's not twenty years

1993
02:41:07.239 --> 02:41:11.280
old, people seem not to care
as much. And I'm not saying that

1994
02:41:11.319 --> 02:41:16.239
as a jab, it's just that's
just the truth. But yeah, I

1995
02:41:16.239 --> 02:41:18.559
mean, we we put a lot
of work into these, Like When the

1996
02:41:18.600 --> 02:41:24.040
Streaming Starts was a tremendous amount of
work because we went back like that movie,

1997
02:41:24.120 --> 02:41:28.239
we went back to the original master
because it was already mastered in two

1998
02:41:28.319 --> 02:41:35.360
K, but they did a four
K but they never completed it because it

1999
02:41:35.479 --> 02:41:41.680
was just going to be streaming and
you can't really stream four KUHD. When

2000
02:41:41.680 --> 02:41:46.360
you do, you're not doing it
just just a heads up, like it's

2001
02:41:46.399 --> 02:41:48.280
too big of a file to actually
come through. It will look better,

2002
02:41:48.319 --> 02:41:56.200
but it's not. You're not streaming
for KUHD. So yeah, we went

2003
02:41:56.360 --> 02:42:00.120
back to you know, with the
director in their post house because they still

2004
02:42:00.120 --> 02:42:03.399
had the files and they were like, oh, yeah, we can,

2005
02:42:03.639 --> 02:42:09.840
we can totally do that. Like
let's let's go back and we'll do we'll

2006
02:42:09.879 --> 02:42:13.959
finish that out, we'll do the
color grading and everything, and it was.

2007
02:42:15.079 --> 02:42:18.639
It was a lengthy process, but
it was fun for the director Connor,

2008
02:42:18.000 --> 02:42:22.440
because he got to actually revisit the
movie real quick, you know,

2009
02:42:22.520 --> 02:42:24.079
after they just kind of finished it. But I guess that might have been

2010
02:42:24.200 --> 02:42:26.840
annoying to him, but it was
it was fun for us. I think

2011
02:42:26.840 --> 02:42:31.799
he had a good time. But
yeah, I mean, that had a

2012
02:42:31.840 --> 02:42:35.920
whole new shebang, and that was
incredibly costly on a movie that we knew

2013
02:42:35.959 --> 02:42:41.200
that wasn't going to do very well. But if the opportunity to do UHD

2014
02:42:41.399 --> 02:42:45.799
was there, we were going to
take it. The other stuff. Obviously

2015
02:42:45.840 --> 02:42:50.399
we couldn't do uhd on because they
were already mastered in two K or whatever.

2016
02:42:50.280 --> 02:42:54.680
But yeah, Welcome to Hell I
talked about last night. That's probably

2017
02:42:54.719 --> 02:43:00.000
my favorite of the batch. I've
always loved Chocolate Starboard Vanilla. That was

2018
02:43:00.159 --> 02:43:03.719
movie I used to work at Wild
I Releasing back in the day, and

2019
02:43:03.799 --> 02:43:07.000
that was a movie that I really
liked on that label and I always felt

2020
02:43:07.000 --> 02:43:13.319
again, it kind of got shafted. It felt different. It was marketed

2021
02:43:13.559 --> 02:43:18.200
in a weird way, and it
is kind of like this taxi driver esque

2022
02:43:18.239 --> 02:43:24.879
movie and it's a little dark.
It's funny at times, but it's also

2023
02:43:24.000 --> 02:43:30.840
like really sad and serious and if
anybody's familiar with like The York Stalker,

2024
02:43:31.360 --> 02:43:35.879
that's kind of where the idea for
this movie came from, which is like

2025
02:43:35.959 --> 02:43:41.319
a really terrifying story and like it
has an awful ending to it. But

2026
02:43:41.879 --> 02:43:46.639
yeah, we actually had, like
they I guess they had some of the

2027
02:43:46.639 --> 02:43:50.840
footage that they were looking at when
they were doing this, because like I

2028
02:43:50.000 --> 02:43:56.760
made like I forget like hundreds of
hours of videos during his uh breakdown.

2029
02:43:58.239 --> 02:44:03.440
But yeah, Warren the lead in
that he has this like mental like Breakdown

2030
02:44:03.440 --> 02:44:07.000
and Chocolate Starvinela has so many goddamn
extras. There's a TV show on that

2031
02:44:07.120 --> 02:44:15.399
disc as well, the first episode
of the director's TV show that he did.

2032
02:44:16.479 --> 02:44:18.879
Yeah, it's like twelve episodes or
something. They're not long, but

2033
02:44:20.159 --> 02:44:24.879
it's the whole fucking seasons on there. And then Some Guy who Kills People

2034
02:44:24.959 --> 02:44:28.159
is another disc that is incredible.
I mean all these discs aside, but

2035
02:44:28.200 --> 02:44:35.120
I think for maybe Cube are stacked, just because it was weird when we

2036
02:44:35.200 --> 02:44:39.159
try to do the extras for Cube. All those people are like very popular

2037
02:44:39.319 --> 02:44:46.200
in Japan, and they wanted like
like five thousand US dollars for interviews,

2038
02:44:46.239 --> 02:44:48.440
and I'm like, no, we're
not going to do that. So we

2039
02:44:48.479 --> 02:44:52.879
got I just went back to Vincio
Natali, who created Cube, and he

2040
02:44:52.959 --> 02:44:58.079
did like he did a very it's
a long long interview on that disc and

2041
02:44:58.360 --> 02:45:01.520
he talks about Cube one, two, and three and then the remake because

2042
02:45:01.520 --> 02:45:07.959
he did supervise like the script on
this. So but yeah, I mean,

2043
02:45:07.000 --> 02:45:11.200
All Jacked Up in Full of Worms
is probably the one I would gravitate

2044
02:45:11.399 --> 02:45:18.959
towards a lot because it's a mixture
of experimental film with like drama it kind

2045
02:45:18.000 --> 02:45:26.479
of feels like early two thousand stuff, and it's just a really bizarre drug

2046
02:45:26.559 --> 02:45:33.159
e trip movie and it's pretty like
if you're offended easily, I wouldn't watch

2047
02:45:33.200 --> 02:45:39.079
it because there's some weird stuff that
happens in the movie. All fake but

2048
02:45:39.120 --> 02:45:43.399
you know, but there is a
lot of weird shit in that movie and

2049
02:45:43.840 --> 02:45:48.040
it hits too. It's it's like
seventy minutes and it just kind of it

2050
02:45:48.200 --> 02:45:52.120
goes all in and Get My Gun. That was a long ad. I

2051
02:45:52.200 --> 02:45:56.120
actually tried Getting Get My Gun for
Wild Eye Releasing when I was doing acquisitions

2052
02:45:56.120 --> 02:45:58.799
for them, but they already had
kind of a plan in place for their

2053
02:45:58.799 --> 02:46:05.440
own like DVD, and when I
you know, that was Actually it's funny

2054
02:46:05.479 --> 02:46:09.879
Parasitesn' Get My Gun or two movies
I tried to get for a while Eye

2055
02:46:09.920 --> 02:46:13.120
Releasing it just didn't work out.
And those are like the two of the

2056
02:46:13.120 --> 02:46:18.399
first movies I signed when I joined
Terror Vision and created it with Ryan.

2057
02:46:20.760 --> 02:46:22.440
Well, I didn't create Terrorivision with
Ryan. It was already existed. We

2058
02:46:22.440 --> 02:46:26.200
created the video side. But yeah, Parasites Didn't Get My Gun were the

2059
02:46:26.200 --> 02:46:31.639
first two now we picked up.
But yeah, they're all wonderful films.

2060
02:46:31.639 --> 02:46:39.840
It's just newer films are harder to
sell, and this sale is just a

2061
02:46:39.920 --> 02:46:45.239
spotlight them and hope that people give
things a chance. We want to do

2062
02:46:45.360 --> 02:46:48.760
more contemporary stuff, but you know, not trying to whine here, but

2063
02:46:48.840 --> 02:46:52.600
when it doesn't sell, it's kind
of hard to continue to do. And

2064
02:46:52.799 --> 02:46:58.520
this day and age, so many
films are not getting physical media releases.

2065
02:46:58.520 --> 02:47:03.440
They're just on stream so which inherently
means in just a couple of years they're

2066
02:47:03.520 --> 02:47:07.520
gone for good. Basically. Yeah, like after the license is up with

2067
02:47:07.559 --> 02:47:11.319
these streaming companies, they're just gonna
They're just gonna go. They're just gonna

2068
02:47:11.319 --> 02:47:16.159
disappear. And you think it's bad
now with some of these older films,

2069
02:47:16.200 --> 02:47:18.479
it's gonna be way worse because in
twenty years you'll be like, where's this

2070
02:47:18.559 --> 02:47:22.680
movie, or it's gonna come back
and be well, hey remember this and

2071
02:47:22.719 --> 02:47:26.479
it's just not available at least if
it's on a disc. It's the longevity

2072
02:47:26.479 --> 02:47:30.440
of the film will be a lot
longer. And I want to do more,

2073
02:47:30.879 --> 02:47:33.879
you know, because I watch newer
films all the time, but it

2074
02:47:35.079 --> 02:47:37.440
just again, it just seems that
as soon as someone sees that it's new.

2075
02:47:39.159 --> 02:47:43.200
They'll either not be interested or they'll
be like, oh, I can

2076
02:47:43.280 --> 02:47:46.239
just stream it, which sure,
stream it and watch it if you hopefully

2077
02:47:46.239 --> 02:47:50.719
you like it. But you know, if you like it, maybe buy

2078
02:47:50.799 --> 02:47:54.399
it, you know, help the
cause, because there's I mean, at

2079
02:47:54.399 --> 02:47:58.360
this point in time, there's so
many I mean, you could see so

2080
02:47:58.479 --> 02:48:03.920
many films can look and just so
much as not getting a physical media release.

2081
02:48:05.079 --> 02:48:11.000
So yeah, well thanks for hanging
out and streaming two nights in a

2082
02:48:11.079 --> 02:48:18.319
row. Yeah it's not as late
as last night, but thanks for having

2083
02:48:18.360 --> 02:48:20.000
me. Not quite. We'll be
on quite a bit later though, So

2084
02:48:20.159 --> 02:48:24.600
yeah, thanks for hanging out.
Everybody should probably go check out tear Vision's

2085
02:48:24.680 --> 02:48:28.559
website. This is you said it
last night. This is sort of like

2086
02:48:28.600 --> 02:48:33.879
a relaunching of the label. This
is like, hey, we got our

2087
02:48:33.879 --> 02:48:39.399
shit together where everything's in stock and
shipping we had announced previously, and these

2088
02:48:39.479 --> 02:48:45.120
are kind of incredible releases. This
whole slate is like a remarkable achievement.

2089
02:48:45.159 --> 02:48:48.319
And that's not just being stated as
somebody to help with them. These are

2090
02:48:48.760 --> 02:48:54.600
like scary, scary, great releases. Yeah, no, I appreciate it,

2091
02:48:54.639 --> 02:48:58.239
and yeah, it's it is kind
of like a fresh kind of go

2092
02:48:58.159 --> 02:49:03.719
with what we're doing, and yeah, we have a lot more plans,

2093
02:49:03.959 --> 02:49:09.040
a lot more surprises, stuff that
people will never guess. It's gonna get

2094
02:49:09.079 --> 02:49:16.040
weirder. We got some popular films, some studio films coming and people are

2095
02:49:16.040 --> 02:49:18.239
gonna be like, how the fuck
did you get that? And it's like,

2096
02:49:18.319 --> 02:49:22.399
yeah, if you want to answer
one question we had, Dallas asked

2097
02:49:22.399 --> 02:49:26.200
earlier, without revealing any titles,
is Terrrovision working on any other four k's

2098
02:49:26.200 --> 02:49:31.399
for other slashers? Yeah? We
I mean we already announced Happy holl Night.

2099
02:49:31.879 --> 02:49:39.040
We're in the middle of doing the
HDR color grade on that. We

2100
02:49:39.120 --> 02:49:46.040
delayed it because we're trying to As
I said last night, it's happy how

2101
02:49:46.120 --> 02:49:50.959
Night has a spooky situation where the
movie was made. They screened it for

2102
02:49:50.959 --> 02:49:54.600
producers and they were like, we
don't like this, so they hired another

2103
02:49:54.719 --> 02:50:01.120
director to come in and they reshot
the movie and they kept some original footage

2104
02:50:01.760 --> 02:50:07.360
and then redid a bunch of other
stuff and yeah, it's that is what

2105
02:50:07.360 --> 02:50:11.879
we know is Happy hell Night.
And I'm like trying to find this version,

2106
02:50:13.040 --> 02:50:18.040
whether it's a video transfer or what, and we haven't been able to,

2107
02:50:18.760 --> 02:50:22.600
so we may just have to I
mean, we've been looking for like

2108
02:50:22.639 --> 02:50:26.479
a year and a half, two
years. We thought it might be in

2109
02:50:26.479 --> 02:50:30.920
the Czech Republic, where the movie
is made, but the lab doesn't have

2110
02:50:31.000 --> 02:50:35.840
anything there, but we'll keep checking
a couple other places. But yeah,

2111
02:50:35.879 --> 02:50:43.440
we have that, and then we
have yeah. I mean, we've already

2112
02:50:43.440 --> 02:50:48.600
announced Roctober Blood and we're working on
that, which that won't be a four

2113
02:50:48.680 --> 02:50:54.639
K because it's a video transfer.
We're in talks to do a few others

2114
02:50:54.840 --> 02:51:03.000
that we're trying to license that are
eighty slash sures to give a UHD upgrade

2115
02:51:03.200 --> 02:51:07.000
or it's on UHD for the first
time. We have a lost film coming

2116
02:51:07.040 --> 02:51:11.360
out that's going to be UHD,
which is kind of funny. So it's

2117
02:51:11.399 --> 02:51:16.639
never had a physical media release ever
and it's gonna jump to UHD. It's

2118
02:51:16.639 --> 02:51:22.239
a slasher film. It was made
I think it was made in nineteen eighty

2119
02:51:22.360 --> 02:51:28.600
nine and not released until like ninety
two, and it was like a self

2120
02:51:28.639 --> 02:51:31.600
release they did, so it's never
really seen the line of day. Not

2121
02:51:31.680 --> 02:51:35.879
many people know. I have a
lot of people don't know about it.

2122
02:51:35.360 --> 02:51:41.399
But it went for a big jump
to UHD and that's pretty funny because that's

2123
02:51:41.440 --> 02:51:45.959
a that's also a really stupid gamble
for terror Vision. But just wait till

2124
02:51:45.959 --> 02:51:48.879
the thread on that one. Wait
till the Reddit thread on that one.

2125
02:51:50.239 --> 02:51:52.159
Oh god, yeah, they're like, what the fun I've never even heard

2126
02:51:52.159 --> 02:51:58.799
of this movie. But yeah,
we have we have a we have a

2127
02:51:58.799 --> 02:52:03.120
few things lined up. I don't
know how much is going to be this

2128
02:52:03.200 --> 02:52:07.799
year. Happy Hell Night will be
in October. Blood it just depends.

2129
02:52:09.840 --> 02:52:15.319
We have some shot on video slashers
that we have that will be coming out.

2130
02:52:16.559 --> 02:52:20.879
Shot on video will still happen,
It's just that it's kind of I

2131
02:52:20.959 --> 02:52:28.239
guess we had Dreamstock there last month, but we got penned as a shot

2132
02:52:28.280 --> 02:52:31.000
on video label. So we're trying
to like be smarter about not releasing so

2133
02:52:31.079 --> 02:52:35.520
much Sought on video even though it's
like only like twenty percent of our catalog.

2134
02:52:35.719 --> 02:52:41.799
But right, oh well, well
again, thanks sir, Thanks for

2135
02:52:41.799 --> 02:52:45.680
hanging out, Thanks for answering some
questions. Yeah, thanks for all the

2136
02:52:45.799 --> 02:52:50.840
kind things. And everybody's sticking around
and you doing this and you're still talking

2137
02:52:50.879 --> 02:52:54.520
about Tereravision, so I appreciate it
always. All right, see you guys,

2138
02:52:54.559 --> 02:53:00.680
I'll leave the studio so you don't
have to boot me out. Dade.

2139
02:53:00.799 --> 02:53:05.840
Yeah, well, sorry for adding
a bunch of extra time to the

2140
02:53:05.959 --> 02:53:11.280
night. Hopefully that was a fun
little addition. Let's finish. We've only

2141
02:53:11.280 --> 02:53:16.040
got a few left of the announcements. Shout announced a couple site exclusives.

2142
02:53:16.079 --> 02:53:20.520
The first, how is this an
exclusive? The Getaway from nineteen ninety four?

2143
02:53:22.559 --> 02:53:26.959
This is the Alec Baldwin and Kim
Basinger starring film with Michael Madsen James

2144
02:53:28.000 --> 02:53:33.360
Woods. And they added a new
random number from the Shout Studios dartboard.

2145
02:53:33.479 --> 02:53:39.159
Of the limited numbers, this one's
limited to two thousand and ten units.

2146
02:53:39.920 --> 02:53:45.639
That's so random, I I am. And now I officially cannot track out

2147
02:53:45.680 --> 02:53:50.239
of the doing this because the jump
from fifteen hundred units to sixteen twenty.

2148
02:53:50.639 --> 02:53:54.280
At least it was around one hundred
and twenty. That's okay, I could

2149
02:53:54.280 --> 02:53:58.559
see that going up, but now
this is three hundred and ninety higher.

2150
02:53:58.239 --> 02:54:07.680
That's not like inventories don't work like
that. I don't know. So this

2151
02:54:07.719 --> 02:54:09.920
one is coming on Blu Ray.
This is available to order now, should

2152
02:54:09.959 --> 02:54:16.040
be shipping damn near immediately. The
big thing this is the uncensored, unrated

2153
02:54:16.120 --> 02:54:20.280
version in HD. It's got new
interviews with C Courtney Joiner and the composer

2154
02:54:20.319 --> 02:54:26.319
Mark Isham, new audio commentary with
Travis Woods, some archival behind the scenes

2155
02:54:26.319 --> 02:54:31.360
featuress making of interviews, and that
is coming now the Getaway. Have you

2156
02:54:31.360 --> 02:54:35.280
seen this one? I just don't. Yeah, we've been through this before,

2157
02:54:35.319 --> 02:54:39.159
but like I just still understand how
you go to the work of doing

2158
02:54:39.200 --> 02:54:45.760
these new special features with these new
interviews and commentaries, and then new release

2159
02:54:45.840 --> 02:54:50.280
it, you know, limited to
the store like this. I just don't

2160
02:54:50.319 --> 02:54:54.120
get it. So these are the
ones that I mentioned earlier when we were

2161
02:54:54.120 --> 02:54:58.319
talking about Warner licensing things and then
them just putting it out. I almost

2162
02:54:58.399 --> 02:55:05.799
wonder if Warner is requiring them to
put it out like this to literally ensure

2163
02:55:05.799 --> 02:55:07.959
that it fails. Like Eric was
talking about in the comments earlier, it

2164
02:55:09.000 --> 02:55:11.840
won't make any money. So it's
not like Warner looks like they made a

2165
02:55:11.879 --> 02:55:16.799
bad decision because shouts not doing anything
with it. Basically, well, against

2166
02:55:16.840 --> 02:55:22.399
my better judgment, I did order
this today well as usual, it came

2167
02:55:22.440 --> 02:55:26.159
with a second one to entice you
to upgrade for free shipping, and you

2168
02:55:26.200 --> 02:55:33.959
can. You can also order Death
and the Maiden Now from nineteen ninety four

2169
02:55:33.000 --> 02:55:39.360
with Sigourney Weaver Ben Kingsley this one. The bonus features that they have listed

2170
02:55:39.040 --> 02:55:46.200
is literally that it has audio.
Oh that's good. I saw this earlier

2171
02:55:46.239 --> 02:55:50.319
and laughed so hard just realizing tonight
I was gonna be able to say that

2172
02:55:50.360 --> 02:55:56.319
line. The bonus features is that
this film has audio. The big deal.

2173
02:55:56.879 --> 02:55:58.479
The big deal is that this is
a plan Ski film. This is

2174
02:55:58.520 --> 02:56:01.479
one that a lot of people thought
would not be coming to HD in the

2175
02:56:01.520 --> 02:56:05.840
States, and now it is.
Of course, it is limited to one,

2176
02:56:07.319 --> 02:56:11.239
six and twenty units because shout and
it is a side exclusive, but

2177
02:56:11.440 --> 02:56:18.399
you can get it now. Yeah. I remember this being a terrific film,

2178
02:56:18.440 --> 02:56:20.920
So yeah, I'm glad that it's
at least coming out in some form.

2179
02:56:22.040 --> 02:56:26.920
So yeah, this is one I
hope last because I want this one,

2180
02:56:26.959 --> 02:56:30.000
but I want to pay thirty dollars
for it. That's why you got

2181
02:56:30.000 --> 02:56:35.559
to get both, so you can
get the free shifting. A couple others

2182
02:56:35.680 --> 02:56:39.319
announced later today, the Cleanse from
twenty sixteen. This is coming out on

2183
02:56:39.360 --> 02:56:46.040
May twenty first from Sony themselves.
This was a Johnny Gallecki starring film with

2184
02:56:46.159 --> 02:56:50.520
Oliver Platt and Angelica Houston. Did
you watch this one? Where was I

2185
02:56:50.600 --> 02:56:54.200
in twenty sixteen, because how did
I miss this? Right? I never

2186
02:56:54.239 --> 02:57:00.959
heard of this, and Angelica Houston
and Johnny Galleki in a genre film sounds

2187
02:57:01.319 --> 02:57:05.959
very intriguing, and I like the
cover is really cool, so I mean,

2188
02:57:05.559 --> 02:57:09.200
I'm kind of intrigued by it.
But yeah, I was shocked when

2189
02:57:09.280 --> 02:57:13.440
I thought it was brand new or
something. So I was shocked when I

2190
02:57:13.440 --> 02:57:16.959
saw that it said twenty sixteen because
I definitely don't remember this coming out.

2191
02:57:16.600 --> 02:57:20.280
I saw the press release and I
literally, just like you, I had

2192
02:57:20.280 --> 02:57:22.360
to go run to IMDb to verify
because I was like, there's no way

2193
02:57:22.399 --> 02:57:26.120
this is eight years old. I've
never heard of this, but yeah,

2194
02:57:26.239 --> 02:57:33.879
Sony Pictures just randomly releasing something eight
years later. Then Keino putting out The

2195
02:57:33.920 --> 02:57:39.840
north Star and Armored Attack from nineteen
forty three, so the way this works.

2196
02:57:39.879 --> 02:57:43.799
The Blu ray includes Armored Attack as
well as the newly remastered to complete

2197
02:57:43.840 --> 02:57:48.520
original theatrical cut of The North Star, which runs thirty minutes longer and preserves

2198
02:57:48.520 --> 02:57:52.920
Milestone's initial vision of the film before
these politically motivated changes were made that they

2199
02:57:52.959 --> 02:57:58.000
discuss in the post here, and
this acclaimed original cut was nominated for six

2200
02:57:58.159 --> 02:58:05.120
Oscars in nineteen forty three, including
Best Cinematography and Original Screenplay. This gets

2201
02:58:05.120 --> 02:58:09.920
a new four K restoration of both
of the cuts, new audio commentary for

2202
02:58:09.959 --> 02:58:15.000
The North Star by Adrian Martin,
new audio commentary for Armored Attack by Steve

2203
02:58:15.079 --> 02:58:18.680
Mitchell and Steven J. Rubin.
So at least they are committing to audio

2204
02:58:18.680 --> 02:58:24.879
commentaries for all of these. Glad
this is coming out and sounds like a

2205
02:58:24.920 --> 02:58:28.520
release that I would probably be interested
in. What do you think that same?

2206
02:58:28.239 --> 02:58:33.000
I haven't seen them, but yeah, I was actually shocked when you

2207
02:58:33.079 --> 02:58:37.719
just said that it was nominated for
all of this oscars. That just made

2208
02:58:37.760 --> 02:58:43.360
me more intrigued. Yeah, and
yeah, I totally understand poulp. There's

2209
02:58:43.399 --> 02:58:48.159
somebody on the discord that I was
helping with get some Keno releases outside of

2210
02:58:48.159 --> 02:58:52.600
the US. It's not easy to
track those down. And finally, for

2211
02:58:52.760 --> 02:58:58.120
new release announcements for this week,
Warner Brothers in the UK, just like

2212
02:58:58.159 --> 02:59:03.879
we mentioned earlier, getting a delay
release of North By Northwest, the Hitchcock

2213
02:59:03.920 --> 02:59:09.719
film from nineteen fifty nine, one
that had zero four K release prior this

2214
02:59:09.760 --> 02:59:13.280
is coming in the UK and a
four K steel book lavish huge release.

2215
02:59:15.040 --> 02:59:18.840
We don't have an exact release date, but it'll probably be smack dab in

2216
02:59:18.879 --> 02:59:22.200
the middle of the summer, and
it's coming with all kinds of stuff.

2217
02:59:22.200 --> 02:59:26.000
We're talking about a steel book,
a rigid slipcase with detachable lenticular artwork,

2218
02:59:26.559 --> 02:59:33.680
a matchbox capacity envelope. We've got
double sided vintage poster, double sided vintage

2219
02:59:33.760 --> 02:59:37.639
art card, double side, a
vantage bookmark, three double sided art cards,

2220
02:59:37.680 --> 02:59:43.159
a forty page booklet. They are
working on potential more features of what

2221
02:59:43.159 --> 02:59:48.120
they're gonna put on the four K
disc, but this looks like a remarkable

2222
02:59:48.159 --> 02:59:54.280
release for a huge, huge title. And the big thing this is only

2223
02:59:54.319 --> 02:59:58.479
coming out in the UK. I
can almost guarantee you that this is not

2224
02:59:58.559 --> 03:00:01.920
getting a release like this in the
US. It'll likely come just as a

2225
03:00:01.920 --> 03:00:05.440
regular four K release here in the
States. This is great, but I

2226
03:00:05.479 --> 03:00:09.239
would say, if you want this, and you really really want this Hitchcock

2227
03:00:09.280 --> 03:00:13.159
title to be this lavish release for
you, get it sooner than later.

2228
03:00:13.239 --> 03:00:18.200
This feels to me a lot like
the Exorcist release from last year. If

2229
03:00:18.239 --> 03:00:22.760
you don't get it early, you're
not going to get this. Then I

2230
03:00:22.760 --> 03:00:28.360
guess I'm gonna have to get it. Hitchcock, how do you feel about

2231
03:00:28.399 --> 03:00:33.200
Hitchcock obviously as a master, but
this is a big one. Love Hitchcock

2232
03:00:33.399 --> 03:00:37.520
and this is one of the greats. Yeah, I'm excited to see this

2233
03:00:37.600 --> 03:00:43.600
on four K. This is a
This is a pretty big deal. Man.

2234
03:00:43.719 --> 03:00:48.479
Again, that was That was a
lot tonight, a lot of announcements.

2235
03:00:50.680 --> 03:00:52.520
Thanks to Brad for hanging out.
Sorry for taking up a little bit

2236
03:00:52.559 --> 03:00:56.440
of extra time in the middle there. Oh no, I was glad to

2237
03:00:56.600 --> 03:01:01.360
be able to finally meet him.
Nice. One more thing that I had

2238
03:01:01.399 --> 03:01:03.280
to share. I said we would
come back after this. I will make

2239
03:01:03.319 --> 03:01:09.559
this full screen to not make it
awkward for just a minute for Dustin.

2240
03:01:11.040 --> 03:01:13.479
Hey, I'm announcing a new show. By the way, I'm putting out

2241
03:01:13.600 --> 03:01:18.600
a new podcast called Film Foundations with
Chris Stashu over at the Culture Cast.

2242
03:01:20.200 --> 03:01:22.840
We are releasing one of these every
single Wednesday, and right now. You

2243
03:01:22.920 --> 03:01:28.680
can go onto YouTube or on the
podcast provider of your choice and check out

2244
03:01:28.680 --> 03:01:33.680
episode zero. These are all going
to be video and audio podcast. You

2245
03:01:33.760 --> 03:01:39.559
can watch these on a different YouTube
channel called film Foundations. I've got the

2246
03:01:39.639 --> 03:01:41.959
link in link tree. You can
search it on YouTube, you can search

2247
03:01:43.000 --> 03:01:48.319
it on your podcast provider, and
we explain the show in this episode zero.

2248
03:01:48.479 --> 03:01:54.959
Every single episode is going to have
a very firm like we are very

2249
03:01:56.000 --> 03:02:00.959
specific on what you're going to hear
in every single episode. Got four different

2250
03:02:01.000 --> 03:02:03.920
questions that we answer based on the
topic and what's crazy. I've gotten this

2251
03:02:05.000 --> 03:02:07.319
question so many times this week,
Polpe says another podcast, when do I

2252
03:02:07.360 --> 03:02:11.680
sleep funny enough, We've already we've
been working on this for months. We

2253
03:02:11.760 --> 03:02:20.200
already have the next seven months of
episodes for this recorded. We are recording

2254
03:02:20.200 --> 03:02:22.760
more and more of these. We're
trying to get very ahead of ourselves so

2255
03:02:22.799 --> 03:02:26.239
that we don't have to work on
them so often. Like tomorrow, I'm

2256
03:02:26.280 --> 03:02:31.159
recording three episodes of this. But
yeah, we are doing a lot.

2257
03:02:31.799 --> 03:02:37.159
This show is going to be really
fun. I think if you listen to

2258
03:02:37.239 --> 03:02:41.280
what the show is, it is
very encouraging. Two people that have ever

2259
03:02:43.000 --> 03:02:46.200
really loved the topic that we're talking
about that day, or never known anything

2260
03:02:46.200 --> 03:02:50.440
about the topic, and both of
those conceits will be something that you go

2261
03:02:50.479 --> 03:02:54.079
into an episode and have a reason
to argue with, or have a reason

2262
03:02:54.120 --> 03:02:58.360
to support, or have a reason
to say, now, you guys are

2263
03:02:58.360 --> 03:03:01.559
idiots for thinking this about these But
there's also a lot of episodes where we

2264
03:03:01.639 --> 03:03:05.879
know nothing about the topic and we
get an expert guest to explain to us

2265
03:03:07.159 --> 03:03:09.959
some of the best reasons to get
into the topic. So check it out.

2266
03:03:09.000 --> 03:03:13.600
Every episode is going to cover either
an actor, a director, a

2267
03:03:13.719 --> 03:03:18.440
franchise, or a micro genre.
And I think it's a pretty fun thing.

2268
03:03:18.600 --> 03:03:22.879
And pretty soon I gotta have Miss
Dustin on the show. You're definitely

2269
03:03:22.879 --> 03:03:26.760
gonna have to be on there at
some point now that we've broke you in

2270
03:03:26.799 --> 03:03:31.360
on here, But either way,
go subscribe please. The first real episode

2271
03:03:31.959 --> 03:03:35.040
is releasing on May first, and
then it will be every Wednesday after that,

2272
03:03:35.639 --> 03:03:39.799
possibly until the end of time.
Yeah, Eli, we just went

2273
03:03:39.879 --> 03:03:45.120
over those shout side exclusives not even
maybe four and a half minutes ago.

2274
03:03:46.719 --> 03:03:48.319
I mean, I'm glad that it's
coming out, but it sucks that it's

2275
03:03:48.360 --> 03:03:52.159
a side exclusive. That's too big
of a movie to only get a side

2276
03:03:52.200 --> 03:03:58.959
exclusive. Now, really quickly,
we always go over what is releasing next

2277

soon. I think that got delayed.

2291
03:05:07.000 --> 03:05:11.719
I don't think that's coming out next
week. I believe eight Man out coming

I want. Yeah, it's two
very good good rows. Yeah, I'm

2297
03:05:37.079 --> 03:05:41.959
really excited about The Kingdom coming out. Yeah, that's a big deal.

2298
03:05:43.719 --> 03:05:50.559
That is incredible if anybody has never
seen it. Yes, I'm very happy

2299
03:05:50.559 --> 03:05:56.639
that that's coming out. Yep,
it's one that I am. In fact,

2300
03:05:56.840 --> 03:05:58.840
that is one that i've coming out
believe from the Target sale also,

2301
03:06:01.760 --> 03:06:05.040
but that's next week and we made
it now. It's already been got three

2302
03:06:05.079 --> 03:06:11.239
hours. This is a long show
tonight, thanks Brad. Uh. Okay,

2303
03:06:11.559 --> 03:06:15.159
let's hit our discussion hard. Do
you need a break? You need

2304
03:06:15.159 --> 03:06:18.680
to go to the bathroom? You
need to Oh no, I'm good out

2305
03:06:18.680 --> 03:06:22.639
through all right. Slashers first,
Uh, Dustin, why do you like

2306
03:06:22.680 --> 03:06:26.200
Slashers? What is about slashers that
made you want to talk about them?

2307
03:06:26.319 --> 03:06:33.200
It's always been my favorite subgenre of
horror, probably because, Yeah, my

2308
03:06:33.360 --> 03:06:37.639
parents really weren't that strict with me
growing up so as far as what I

2309
03:06:37.719 --> 03:06:41.520
watched, So they just always told
me, as long as you know it's

2310
03:06:41.559 --> 03:06:46.600
not real, it's fine. So
I was like five years old, renting

2311
03:06:46.920 --> 03:06:54.000
Friday the thirteenth and and so,
and I think, yeah, I don't

2312
03:06:54.639 --> 03:07:01.920
I don't know why those appealed to
to me. I guess because they're they're

2313
03:07:01.479 --> 03:07:05.559
in a sense, very formulaic as
far as like, you know what you're

2314
03:07:05.600 --> 03:07:09.040
getting, as far as far as
slashes are concerned, like they're gonna set

2315
03:07:09.079 --> 03:07:13.239
up the victims, there's gonna be
a killer, and they're gonna go after

2316
03:07:13.319 --> 03:07:16.520
each one at a time. And
I think, I don't know. I

2317
03:07:16.600 --> 03:07:20.639
think that appealed to me growing up, and it's always sort of stayed with

2318
03:07:20.680 --> 03:07:26.799
me. And I always liked the
aesthetic of I don't know, the you

2319
03:07:26.840 --> 03:07:30.520
know, if the killer wears a
mask or something like that, and I

2320
03:07:30.959 --> 03:07:33.959
just always enjoyed that. So it's
always just stuck with me. And that's

2321
03:07:35.000 --> 03:07:41.399
what I've always liked. I I
agree, I'm very happy with most slashers,

2322
03:07:41.440 --> 03:07:45.520
even bad slashers. There's usually something
super fun about them. I mean,

2323
03:07:45.760 --> 03:07:48.840
it's like a comfort movie for me. I don't know why. That's

2324
03:07:48.840 --> 03:07:54.639
how we say you know what you're
getting? So tonight, as we stated,

2325
03:07:54.680 --> 03:08:01.239
the discussion is focused on eighty Slashers, specifically that never got a sequel.

2326
03:08:01.000 --> 03:08:07.319
So let's dive right in Dustin what's
your number five choice. Well,

2327
03:08:07.440 --> 03:08:11.639
just a preface, Yeah, when
I was these were the first five that

2328
03:08:11.639 --> 03:08:16.760
that came to my mind when I
was thinking about them. Not necessarily like

2329
03:08:16.879 --> 03:08:20.680
my top five, but but I
do think that they're that they're pretty up

2330
03:08:20.760 --> 03:08:28.200
there. But I did notice it
was not intentional at all, but I

2331
03:08:28.280 --> 03:08:31.159
noticed that, you know, with
Slashers, a lot of times you think

2332
03:08:31.200 --> 03:08:37.079
of them being revolving around teenage characters, but four out of the five that

2333
03:08:37.159 --> 03:08:43.440
I chose are actually adult characters,
and the other one is college age.

2334
03:08:43.479 --> 03:08:48.920
So there were none that were,
you know, younger characters. Not that

2335
03:08:48.280 --> 03:08:52.920
in the eighties even the high schoolers
were played by thirty year olds. But

2336
03:08:56.760 --> 03:08:58.799
now I'm starting to worry that I
think we might have a few crossinggos.

2337
03:09:00.159 --> 03:09:07.319
No so, and also also to
preface, the first two that I'm doing

2338
03:09:07.520 --> 03:09:13.639
are two that I saw when I
was a kid and just loved them and

2339
03:09:13.719 --> 03:09:16.799
watched them a lot. So there's
lots of nostalgia involved in the first two,

2340
03:09:18.079 --> 03:09:24.479
and then the other three I came
to later on and I was just

2341
03:09:26.399 --> 03:09:31.479
sort of blown away by by all
of them. So the first one that

2342
03:09:31.639 --> 03:09:41.200
I'm doing is nineteen eighty threes Mortuary
good pick. Yeah, this one.

2343
03:09:41.360 --> 03:09:46.920
Yeah, this one I probably watched
I don't even know how many times growing

2344
03:09:46.000 --> 03:09:50.600
up. It always have you seen
it? I had. It's been a

2345
03:09:50.680 --> 03:09:54.360
long long time, but I saw. I think I saw the Scorpion that

2346
03:09:54.440 --> 03:09:58.639
released that before MVD R one,
Yeah, I believe so. Yeah,

2347
03:09:58.680 --> 03:10:03.680
we watched that. Blue released it
with a slip. Yeah, and I

2348
03:10:03.719 --> 03:10:07.120
had to buy it even though it
was just a slip with the same stuff

2349
03:10:07.120 --> 03:10:13.879
that I had to do. But
I this would always really creeped me out.

2350
03:10:15.680 --> 03:10:20.719
I loved the just the atmosphere of
it. It's set in southern California

2351
03:10:20.799 --> 03:10:28.680
along the coast. The main character
is a college student and her father has

2352
03:10:28.879 --> 03:10:33.479
recently been well. They say that
he drowned that she's convinced that he was

2353
03:10:33.600 --> 03:10:45.559
killed. And meanwhile there's a friend
of hers goes missing and then she starts

2354
03:10:45.559 --> 03:10:52.040
seeing somebody stalking her who's in a
black cloak carrying some sort of sharp embalming

2355
03:10:52.120 --> 03:10:58.600
instruments. And it's very creepy and
it also has it has a really good

2356
03:10:58.719 --> 03:11:03.920
cat Mary McDonough. She was coming
off of the Waltons for nine seasons and

2357
03:11:03.959 --> 03:11:07.120
she was the lead in it.
So I don't know if they were trying

2358
03:11:07.159 --> 03:11:13.879
to do sort of well, not
really like Jamie Leekurz because she hadn't come

2359
03:11:13.879 --> 03:11:18.239
off, but maybe like somebody who
was who had like a name attached to

2360
03:11:18.280 --> 03:11:24.280
her already. And then her boyfriend
in the movie is David Wallace and he

2361
03:11:24.479 --> 03:11:33.239
was also in another eighty slasher called
Humongous. And then Linda da George and

2362
03:11:33.360 --> 03:11:37.319
Christopher George. They were married at
the time and this was his last film.

2363
03:11:37.360 --> 03:11:45.440
He passed away right after this,
and she played Linda d George plays

2364
03:11:45.440 --> 03:11:54.239
her mother, and then Bill Paxton, who is amazing. But it's uh,

2365
03:11:54.040 --> 03:11:58.120
yeah, I just I've always yeah, I really liked this one.

2366
03:11:58.760 --> 03:12:01.479
Yeah, Like I said, it
always creeped me out, and it still

2367
03:12:01.479 --> 03:12:07.360
holds a lot of power for me
because I rewatched it just a few weeks

2368
03:12:07.360 --> 03:12:13.319
ago, and yeah, that's my
first choice. This is a good pick,

2369
03:12:13.760 --> 03:12:18.319
one that doesn't get talked about enough
and really kind of fits in the

2370
03:12:18.360 --> 03:12:22.079
style of mind because a lot of
mine are ones that when you mentioned it,

2371
03:12:22.159 --> 03:12:26.680
a lot of us that are into
this boutique physical media world will go,

2372
03:12:28.079 --> 03:12:31.440
oh, yeah that one, yeah, of course, and it's got

2373
03:12:31.479 --> 03:12:35.479
that like nostalgic feeling, but just
something about these most of the titles,

2374
03:12:35.520 --> 03:12:39.520
I don't see people going to bat
for what. Like I said, one

2375
03:12:39.559 --> 03:12:41.639
of mine is like a pretty obvious
choice, but other than that, the

2376
03:12:41.680 --> 03:12:48.440
other four I think are pretty good
semi deep cuts. Mortuary is definitely up

2377
03:12:48.479 --> 03:12:54.360
there that sort of deep cut.
My first one is one with some of

2378
03:12:54.399 --> 03:12:58.520
the most creative skills in the eighties
I think, And the biggest thing is

2379
03:12:58.520 --> 03:13:03.879
it has probably the most creative setting
for a slasher, which is one of

2380
03:13:03.920 --> 03:13:07.760
the reasons why I love it.
Not to mention the setting, but we

2381
03:13:07.799 --> 03:13:11.719
also have people that I adore that
are attached to it, like mister Sam

2382
03:13:11.840 --> 03:13:18.440
Raimi and Bruce Campbell. I'm gonna
talk about Intruder. This movie is set

2383
03:13:18.479 --> 03:13:22.040
in a grocery store and because of
that has some super unique depths. It's

2384
03:13:22.079 --> 03:13:28.479
got some really well done gore like
this is known as a gore heavy film.

2385
03:13:28.719 --> 03:13:31.559
The big thing though, if you
have never seen this, this Sinapse

2386
03:13:31.639 --> 03:13:37.000
release is brilliant For this movie.
There is a new making of on this

2387
03:13:37.040 --> 03:13:41.799
there's an audio commentary with the director, Scott Spiegel and the producer. There

2388
03:13:41.040 --> 03:13:46.280
is extended murder sequences from the original
work print, which is crazy for a

2389
03:13:46.280 --> 03:13:50.440
film like this to be able to
get that on a release. There's outtakes

2390
03:13:50.479 --> 03:13:54.079
from the now last short film Night
Crew This God, I don't even remember.

2391
03:13:54.479 --> 03:13:58.280
Let's just say what year this came
out. This had to have been

2392
03:14:00.319 --> 03:14:05.719
two thousand and eleven Blu ray from
Synaps. This is an old release and

2393
03:14:05.159 --> 03:14:09.079
it is it still holds up.
This is a great release. I really

2394
03:14:09.120 --> 03:14:13.520
hope someday if we can find some
reason to do like brand new special features,

2395
03:14:13.559 --> 03:14:18.399
I would love this to get a
giant, like really special edition four

2396
03:14:18.479 --> 03:14:20.959
K release, And not that it
has to be four K. This movie

2397
03:14:22.000 --> 03:14:26.360
just doesn't get love, and I
feel like in today's marketplace, this coming

2398
03:14:26.399 --> 03:14:30.920
on four K is something that people
will get super excited about and go by

2399
03:14:31.040 --> 03:14:33.760
just because they've heard so much about
it. This movie's astonishing. What do

2400
03:14:33.799 --> 03:14:37.440
you think about Intruder Testin? Oh, it's really good. Yeah, I

2401
03:14:37.479 --> 03:14:41.760
haven't. I saw it when it
when Synaps put it out, and I

2402
03:14:41.799 --> 03:14:46.680
haven't seen it since then, but
it's really stuck with me over the years.

2403
03:14:46.719 --> 03:14:50.440
I do love the the grocery store
setting, and that's another thing,

2404
03:14:50.520 --> 03:14:54.840
yeah that I had forgotten to mention, just that appeals to me about Slashers

2405
03:14:54.959 --> 03:15:00.719
is a lot of them are a
lot of them, are you know,

2406
03:15:00.760 --> 03:15:05.319
a lot of times the setting is
another character in the story. So and

2407
03:15:05.360 --> 03:15:11.680
that certainly certainly stands for intruder.
Ain't that the truth? All right?

2408
03:15:11.760 --> 03:15:16.959
Let's go to your second one,
all right? The second one is also

2409
03:15:18.000 --> 03:15:20.600
the second one that I that I
watched a lot as a kid, and

2410
03:15:20.639 --> 03:15:31.159
it's it is American Gothic, good
thing. Have you seen this one?

2411
03:15:31.559 --> 03:15:35.799
I again, I think I did
years ago, but yeah, this is

2412
03:15:35.840 --> 03:15:41.840
one that no one talks about.
Yeah, and and it is really good.

2413
03:15:41.879 --> 03:15:43.799
Like I know, a lot of
people always say because it stars Rod

2414
03:15:43.840 --> 03:15:50.239
Steiger and Yvonne de Carlow. I
believe she was in she was in The

2415
03:15:50.319 --> 03:15:56.440
Munsters, and of course Rod Steiger
was you know, Oscar nominated, and

2416
03:15:56.479 --> 03:15:58.920
people always talk about how, you
know, they must have been so embarras

2417
03:16:00.040 --> 03:16:03.399
rest by this film. And this
was towards the end of their careers.

2418
03:16:03.159 --> 03:16:09.920
But they're both great in it,
and I mean they really you know,

2419
03:16:09.000 --> 03:16:15.319
they definitely do not phone it in. But yeah, this one is from

2420
03:16:15.399 --> 03:16:24.079
nineteen eighty eight and just it's about
a group of adult friends who charter a

2421
03:16:24.120 --> 03:16:28.840
plane in Seattle. They're going on
vacation, and they run into engine trouble

2422
03:16:28.959 --> 03:16:33.479
on the plane and they have to
land, as you do, on a

2423
03:16:33.520 --> 03:16:41.040
deserted island, and they discover that
the only ones living there is this devoutly

2424
03:16:41.159 --> 03:16:48.760
religious family led by mon Pa,
and they have three children who are all

2425
03:16:48.319 --> 03:16:56.479
middle aged, but they still dress
and act like their little kids, and

2426
03:16:56.879 --> 03:17:03.799
it's very strange, very weird,
very disconcerting. They welcome them in,

2427
03:17:05.040 --> 03:17:09.239
you know, to give them shelter
while while, you know, one of

2428
03:17:09.239 --> 03:17:16.200
the friends stays back to work on
the plane, and they immediately offend the

2429
03:17:16.239 --> 03:17:24.079
family and they clearly forget about Thou
shall not kill with their religion because they

2430
03:17:24.799 --> 03:17:28.120
start killing them all. And but
one of the interesting things that I also

2431
03:17:28.200 --> 03:17:33.520
find with it is that the lead
act or the lead character in it,

2432
03:17:33.000 --> 03:17:41.680
Cynthia, she has recently lost her
newborn or well infant child in a drowning

2433
03:17:41.760 --> 03:17:48.399
accident, and she's just been released
from a mental institution and she's trying to

2434
03:17:48.600 --> 03:17:52.840
get over her grief at the same
time that all of this is happening.

2435
03:17:54.120 --> 03:18:01.879
And and I think that it's it's
sort of a fast name that dichotomy between

2436
03:18:01.920 --> 03:18:07.319
the lead character who's still trap grappling
with the trauma and guilda losing her baby,

2437
03:18:07.920 --> 03:18:11.840
and then one of their children,
Fanny, who again is like forty

2438
03:18:11.840 --> 03:18:15.799
five years old, and she's a
little girl, and she's carrying around a

2439
03:18:15.840 --> 03:18:24.600
baby doll that's actually a real skeleton
of a baby. So so sort of

2440
03:18:24.680 --> 03:18:28.799
I don't want to give away exactly
what happens, but it's not really good

2441
03:18:28.879 --> 03:18:37.040
for her mental health. Let's just
say that I am very very due for

2442
03:18:37.200 --> 03:18:43.000
rewatch for this one. Gosh yeah, wow, Will, Will, says

2443
03:18:43.040 --> 03:18:46.000
the Prowler of the Dorm of the
Drip, blood Maniac tear trained Black Christmas

2444
03:18:46.040 --> 03:18:50.600
If just before Don counts it's my
number one, Will we should be friends,

2445
03:18:50.639 --> 03:18:54.879
That's all I'll say. I Yeah, I definitely need to rewatch American

2446
03:18:54.920 --> 03:18:58.879
Gothic. My my next one is
the only one I picked. That's the

2447
03:19:00.000 --> 03:19:03.159
obvious one, and I wanted to
get it away pretty early, and so

2448
03:19:03.959 --> 03:19:09.440
I gotta go with the story of
Harry Warden. Like My Bloody Valentine,

2449
03:19:09.840 --> 03:19:13.920
is such a stylish idea of a
film. There's so much that you can

2450
03:19:13.959 --> 03:19:18.280
do with This doesn't have a sequel. It does have a remake that I

2451
03:19:18.360 --> 03:19:20.520
don't hate. I think the remake
is pretty decent for this, especially if

2452
03:19:20.559 --> 03:19:24.079
you watch it with the right three
D and all that. But this good

2453
03:19:24.159 --> 03:19:28.719
kills, great acting, super memorable
killer. We were talking about that,

2454
03:19:30.879 --> 03:19:33.840
this is uh, this is a
classic. Most people have seen this.

2455
03:19:33.879 --> 03:19:37.479
I don't need to explain this to
most people. I'm just I'm sorry.

2456
03:19:37.479 --> 03:19:41.200
I was just gonna say, I
feel like that could be the most popular

2457
03:19:41.520 --> 03:19:46.079
slasher that never got a sequel.
I was thinking that, or maybe Terror

2458
03:19:46.159 --> 03:19:50.399
Train. I think even this is
more popular than that, Like I it

2459
03:19:50.559 --> 03:19:56.159
Loaly and even even when the remake
came out and was such a hit,

2460
03:19:56.440 --> 03:19:58.399
and you would have thought that they
might have done a sequel to that,

2461
03:19:58.479 --> 03:20:03.799
and then they Yep, this is
maybe some one of those that's amazing that

2462
03:20:03.799 --> 03:20:05.639
there's no sequel that, like you
could have made them a ton of money.

2463
03:20:07.000 --> 03:20:11.360
Yeah, but yeah, that yeah, that's a great one. Had

2464
03:20:11.399 --> 03:20:13.760
to do it. Clearly, most
people have seen it. But it's a

2465
03:20:15.479 --> 03:20:22.799
it's just a beautiful movie. Yeah. So my third is if I said

2466
03:20:22.879 --> 03:20:28.120
ice skating, would you know what
I'm talking about. There's a couple scenes

2467
03:20:28.239 --> 03:20:31.760
that immediately come to oh wait,
no, one of them is the nineties.

2468
03:20:31.799 --> 03:20:35.799
I think I'm doubting myself. Now, what is it going with Curtains?

2469
03:20:37.479 --> 03:20:45.040
Okay, which has one of the
great uh sort of kill set pieces

2470
03:20:45.719 --> 03:20:50.399
where one of the characters is a
professional ice skater and she goes out one

2471
03:20:50.440 --> 03:20:56.440
morning and it's nice and tranquil and
she's out practicing on the on the pond

2472
03:20:56.719 --> 03:21:05.200
frozen over, and she gets stalked
by a killer in an old hag mask

2473
03:21:05.319 --> 03:21:13.120
with a carrying a sickle, and
it's so it's so I don't know it.

2474
03:21:13.319 --> 03:21:16.959
It's so weird, like just the
imagery of the scene, but so

2475
03:21:18.159 --> 03:21:22.479
inspired at the same time. I
think in a lot of ways, because

2476
03:21:22.520 --> 03:21:28.920
people sort of think about curtains,
they sort of put it together with that

2477
03:21:30.000 --> 03:21:37.159
scene, and I think it's sort
of like suggests what could have been.

2478
03:21:37.040 --> 03:21:41.479
Because there were a lot of production
issues with this movie, and they filmed

2479
03:21:41.719 --> 03:21:46.040
like the middle section that like the
middle hour of it or whatever, and

2480
03:21:46.079 --> 03:21:50.520
then they came back like a year
or two later and filmed the opening and

2481
03:21:50.600 --> 03:21:56.879
the ending with a different director,
and the original director was so angry with

2482
03:21:56.959 --> 03:22:05.319
it that he took his name all
off of it. So but at the

2483
03:22:05.319 --> 03:22:09.840
same time, it weirdly still all
comes together, and I just think it's

2484
03:22:09.920 --> 03:22:15.600
very effective. I love the snowy
setting of it. I think it's interesting

2485
03:22:15.719 --> 03:22:22.280
that Basically, the general premise is
that they're sort of a sleazy director invites

2486
03:22:22.360 --> 03:22:28.479
six aspiring actresses to his mansion for
the weekend to all vive for the same

2487
03:22:28.600 --> 03:22:35.840
role in an upcoming film that he's
making, and and yeah, there's a

2488
03:22:35.920 --> 03:22:39.799
killer in their midst at the same
time. But it's very well done.

2489
03:22:39.840 --> 03:22:43.280
And yeah, like I said,
I love the snowy setting. There's another

2490
03:22:43.440 --> 03:22:50.000
great third act chase scene, and
I love a good chase scene in a

2491
03:22:50.040 --> 03:22:54.479
slasher, and this one has a
great one at the end in a sort

2492
03:22:54.479 --> 03:23:01.079
of it's like a like a set
shed or something like. It's like a

2493
03:23:01.079 --> 03:23:07.360
shed with with all of like the
sets and production equipment and things like that,

2494
03:23:07.440 --> 03:23:11.079
and it's just very well done.
So yeah, I love Curtains.

2495
03:23:11.760 --> 03:23:18.319
Have you seen that one multiple times? This is one with some very evocative

2496
03:23:18.440 --> 03:23:22.000
visuals. This is a movie that
will stick with you for a long time.

2497
03:23:22.760 --> 03:23:26.079
This is funny enough, one of
the eight that I was choosing from

2498
03:23:26.079 --> 03:23:31.600
and it unfortunately just eked out to
the bottom three. I probably should have

2499
03:23:31.600 --> 03:23:37.319
picked that over my Bloody Valentine.
But Curtains is, like I hesitate to

2500
03:23:37.360 --> 03:23:41.280
say it, but like, I
think it's one of the most unique titles

2501
03:23:41.319 --> 03:23:45.680
probably that we could pick for tonight. It's one of the more bizarre and

2502
03:23:45.959 --> 03:23:48.639
like, how does this have?
Like how did this even get made in

2503
03:23:48.680 --> 03:23:52.879
this type of film, because there's
this seems like a risky one for a

2504
03:23:52.879 --> 03:23:56.879
studio to put some money behind.
And I'm glad it's here, Glad I

2505
03:23:56.920 --> 03:24:00.159
got a good release. Sint amsterly
kind of killed it with this one.

2506
03:24:00.280 --> 03:24:03.360
It was notorious for you know,
prior to the Blu Ray release when it

2507
03:24:03.399 --> 03:24:07.440
was only available on vhs, and
I guess probably maybe you two, but

2508
03:24:07.959 --> 03:24:13.120
the quality of it was so bad
that there would be full sections of it

2509
03:24:13.120 --> 03:24:18.719
where you couldn't even tell what was
happening on the screen. And so yeah,

2510
03:24:18.760 --> 03:24:22.799
when Synapse put out the Blu Ray, it was just, yeah,

2511
03:24:22.840 --> 03:24:24.719
it was a revelation. It was
like seeing it for the first time,

2512
03:24:26.639 --> 03:24:33.200
and it really did showcase how well
it was shot and filmed and only made

2513
03:24:33.239 --> 03:24:37.680
the movie better overall. So yeah, I would fully agree there and funny

2514
03:24:37.760 --> 03:24:41.399
enough not to immediately glom onto it, but I would say the same over

2515
03:24:41.440 --> 03:24:43.799
my next pick. And man,
my first pick was a synaps too.

2516
03:24:43.920 --> 03:24:46.920
Snames get a lot of love right
now. My next pick is a Synapse

2517
03:24:48.559 --> 03:24:52.079
and they did the exact same thing
for this one. This is nineteen eighty

2518
03:24:52.120 --> 03:24:58.920
one for a film that I love, specifically for the ending of this movie,

2519
03:24:58.520 --> 03:25:03.959
that is the The Dorm that Dripped
Blood. This movie is one.

2520
03:25:03.760 --> 03:25:11.639
It's a Christmas movie set in Christmas
slasher set in a very snowy dorm area

2521
03:25:11.639 --> 03:25:16.239
where students are disappearing, very like
cliche set up there, but it does

2522
03:25:16.600 --> 03:25:20.840
one of the most non cliche things
for an ending. And I know that

2523
03:25:20.920 --> 03:25:26.239
a lot of Slashers have like the
hey, we're indicating that there could be

2524
03:25:26.319 --> 03:25:30.760
a sequel, but this very specifically
has like the opposite of a happy ending,

2525
03:25:31.360 --> 03:25:35.239
and that's why I love this movie. I don't think that's a spoiler

2526
03:25:35.280 --> 03:25:37.920
or anything like that, but I
do feel like most people have never seen

2527
03:25:37.959 --> 03:25:43.000
this movie. I think this is
one that people have maybe heard about.

2528
03:25:43.040 --> 03:25:46.920
There's a I think I remember they
discussed the alternate title on here. Oh

2529
03:25:46.000 --> 03:25:50.520
yeah, death Dorm. For some
reason, there's an alternate version on here

2530
03:25:50.559 --> 03:25:54.360
called death Dorm, so people knew
death Dorm or the Dorm that Dripped Blood.

2531
03:25:54.399 --> 03:25:58.719
But the ending of this movie is
really what sets the thing apart.

2532
03:25:58.239 --> 03:26:03.360
Sets this thing a part for me. But I also love just Christmas slashers.

2533
03:26:03.479 --> 03:26:07.760
It's a really fun genre by itself, and this one specifically again another

2534
03:26:07.799 --> 03:26:11.239
great release. Interviews, audio commentary. Synaps killed it again. I think

2535
03:26:11.280 --> 03:26:16.200
this was a two thousand and yeah, twenty eleven Synaps release back when they

2536
03:26:16.239 --> 03:26:20.000
were releasing, you know, more
than three titles a year. This is

2537
03:26:20.040 --> 03:26:24.079
a big one and it goes on
sale for very cheap. I don't necessarily

2538
03:26:24.120 --> 03:26:26.959
see this one getting a four K. I see something like Curtains getting a

2539
03:26:26.959 --> 03:26:31.399
four K before this, or Intruder
because they have a little bit bigger of

2540
03:26:31.479 --> 03:26:35.440
a reputation. This one gets overlooked
by like ninety eight percent of the horror

2541
03:26:35.479 --> 03:26:41.319
community. Dorm is amazing. This
movie's fantastic. It's yeah, it's really

2542
03:26:41.319 --> 03:26:46.760
good. And I believe and even
more impressive, I believe that it was

2543
03:26:46.799 --> 03:26:52.000
actually filmed by like UCLA film students. It was a student film. Yeah,

2544
03:26:52.120 --> 03:26:56.040
yeah, and so that just yeah, that just makes it even more

2545
03:26:56.079 --> 03:26:58.479
impressive. And I know, like
Daphne's Zuniga, isn't it? And I

2546
03:26:58.520 --> 03:27:01.360
think that might be favorite her first
film. It is, I believe,

2547
03:27:01.120 --> 03:27:07.440
even though she's out of it pretty
quick. But yeah, I love the

2548
03:27:07.799 --> 03:27:13.520
campus setting of that, the Christmas
sort of vibes in the background. And

2549
03:27:13.600 --> 03:27:18.040
yeah, I think the most memorable
thing about it is definitely the decidedly downbeat

2550
03:27:18.159 --> 03:27:24.719
ending. I mean, that's a
very sort of ballsy way to end a

2551
03:27:24.799 --> 03:27:33.399
movie. Yes it is. I
love the ending of that one. And

2552
03:27:33.520 --> 03:27:37.239
yes, dude McMahon is right pointing
out the dorm that drip blood. I'm

2553
03:27:37.360 --> 03:27:39.440
remembering, and I could be wrong. In the beginning, I thought it

2554
03:27:39.479 --> 03:27:43.479
had one scene with snow. It
is set in California, so it's not

2555
03:27:43.520 --> 03:27:46.520
like it's a snow capped film.
But if I remember it, I think

2556
03:27:46.520 --> 03:27:50.680
there's one scene with snow. I
think it's just like a set piece.

2557
03:27:50.840 --> 03:27:54.639
Anyways, I cannot remember, but
I may I may have just misspoke there.

2558
03:27:56.520 --> 03:28:01.600
Well, it is head of Christmas, though there might be like snow

2559
03:28:01.719 --> 03:28:07.239
like on like the edges of the
street. Yes, all right, sir,

2560
03:28:07.319 --> 03:28:11.600
we only got a couple left already. All right. My fourth is

2561
03:28:13.559 --> 03:28:16.040
so this one. I only discovered
my last two. Actually, they're both

2562
03:28:16.079 --> 03:28:22.520
Era releases, and I discovered both
of them. I had never heard of

2563
03:28:22.559 --> 03:28:26.399
either one of them until they were
announced, and both of them just blew

2564
03:28:26.440 --> 03:28:28.399
my mind, and I was like, how have I gone all my life?

2565
03:28:28.399 --> 03:28:35.120
And never seen this movie in Nice. So it is nineteen eighty two's

2566
03:28:35.680 --> 03:28:39.440
The Slayer. Oh wow, that
is not when I would have expected out

2567
03:28:39.479 --> 03:28:43.319
of nowhere it. Have you seen
this one? It's I don't think I

2568
03:28:43.360 --> 03:28:50.479
actually ever saw that. Oh I
I think you'd really like it. Yeah,

2569
03:28:50.479 --> 03:28:58.360
this one is has a similar setup
to American Gothic in that it's again

2570
03:28:58.399 --> 03:29:05.760
adult care. Is a married couple
and her brother and sister in law and

2571
03:29:05.760 --> 03:29:15.120
they're all going on vacation and they
get a pilot flies them to an island

2572
03:29:15.159 --> 03:29:18.120
in Georgia for vacation, and there's
a house there that they're staying at,

2573
03:29:20.319 --> 03:29:22.440
but wouldn't you know it, a
hurricane is moving in at the same time.

2574
03:29:24.399 --> 03:29:30.200
The main character is an artist,
and she's sort of since childhood,

2575
03:29:30.239 --> 03:29:37.399
she's been plagued by all of these
nightmares of things that either have come true

2576
03:29:37.760 --> 03:29:41.280
or just things that she wouldn't have
known. And when she when they get

2577
03:29:41.280 --> 03:29:52.079
there, they pass by a broken
down theater that she had previously painted in

2578
03:29:52.120 --> 03:29:54.719
one of her recent paintings, and
there's no way for her to have even

2579
03:29:54.799 --> 03:30:05.639
known of it. But yeahs as
the hurricane move then someone is killing the

2580
03:30:05.200 --> 03:30:11.159
you know, the four of them
and you don't see who it is.

2581
03:30:11.239 --> 03:30:15.079
And I think that's what's unique about
it is it's also a mystery at the

2582
03:30:15.120 --> 03:30:18.399
same time, because you don't know
if if she's hallucinating, if it's a

2583
03:30:18.440 --> 03:30:22.840
part of her dreams, if she's
you know, if it's if she's having

2584
03:30:22.879 --> 03:30:28.440
some sort of like mental issues,
or if somebody is actually on the island

2585
03:30:28.520 --> 03:30:35.840
killing them, or if it could
even be something otherworldly and you don't see

2586
03:30:35.840 --> 03:30:39.399
it. And the Yeah, the
set pieces, there's one that's set in

2587
03:30:39.440 --> 03:30:48.559
a sort of like aboding shed is
just amazingly done without actually showing you any

2588
03:30:48.719 --> 03:30:54.760
of you know, who's actually doing
it. And the kills are really creative,

2589
03:30:56.719 --> 03:31:01.600
very brutal, and you wouldn't expect
it, like just how how how

2590
03:31:01.600 --> 03:31:07.600
they're oft and then it all leads
up to an ending that you just sort

2591
03:31:07.639 --> 03:31:11.680
of have to see for yourself.
I'm gonna have to watch this one very

2592
03:31:11.680 --> 03:31:18.399
soon. I think gosh, did
did screen Factory put this out in the

2593
03:31:18.520 --> 03:31:20.799
US? I cann't tell if that
was a narrow UK or US? Yeah,

2594
03:31:22.120 --> 03:31:28.159
I think it was the US.
Oh wow, yeah hmm, but

2595
03:31:28.239 --> 03:31:31.959
yeah, if you don't have this, yeah, definitely recommended. Yeah,

2596
03:31:33.000 --> 03:31:37.280
this is one of my favorite Slashers
that never got a sequel. Wow,

2597
03:31:37.920 --> 03:31:43.920
that sounds fantastic and very right up
my alley. And I also just love

2598
03:31:43.000 --> 03:31:48.399
that it's actually mature characters who are
just living their lives and so it's sort

2599
03:31:48.440 --> 03:31:50.920
of like a slice of life at
the same time, even though there's all

2600
03:31:50.959 --> 03:31:58.600
of these horrific things that are happening
to them, and it's just it's just

2601
03:31:58.760 --> 03:32:03.479
very smart, very very creepy,
and yeah, and then it takes a

2602
03:32:03.479 --> 03:32:09.159
big swing at the end, and
that's all I'll say. Nice. What's

2603
03:32:09.159 --> 03:32:11.360
funny is you said both of yours
are from era of video, so that

2604
03:32:11.479 --> 03:32:16.639
confirms we have zero crossovers. Oh
awesome this one. A lot of people

2605
03:32:16.680 --> 03:32:22.399
are gonna probably say that this is
a very popular pick, but I'm going

2606
03:32:22.479 --> 03:32:24.760
to push back against that and say, there's a lot of people right now

2607
03:32:24.799 --> 03:32:28.079
that are not buying this because this
is a pretty old release and I think

2608
03:32:28.079 --> 03:32:31.440
people are waiting on a four K
that we have no idea if it's coming

2609
03:32:31.559 --> 03:32:35.280
or not. In fact, it
seems like we're not getting one. My

2610
03:32:35.319 --> 03:32:37.680
pick is from Blue Underground, and
people are going to think that I pulled

2611
03:32:37.719 --> 03:32:41.000
all these together after Will's comment,
But when I said We're very much friends.

2612
03:32:41.799 --> 03:32:48.440
Will named literally most of my choices
the Prowler from nineteen eighty one.

2613
03:32:48.360 --> 03:32:56.000
This is an incredible movie about a
soldier that is really kind of cast out

2614
03:32:56.120 --> 03:33:01.879
and comes back for very soldierrific revenge. We'll say this is all the gore

2615
03:33:01.920 --> 03:33:07.600
effects of this handled by the master
Tom Savini, and that is one of

2616
03:33:07.600 --> 03:33:09.879
the main reasons I love this movie. I think this has one of the

2617
03:33:09.920 --> 03:33:13.280
more I'm gonna put this closer so
you can see some detail, one of

2618
03:33:13.280 --> 03:33:18.520
the more unique and effective looking killers
that This is one of the main reasons

2619
03:33:18.600 --> 03:33:22.799
I am shocked this didn't get five
films just the look of this killer.

2620
03:33:22.959 --> 03:33:26.760
I could see this being all over
Spirit Halloween in twenty twenty four. That's

2621
03:33:26.799 --> 03:33:31.399
true. This movie is amazing and
if you've never seen it has really great

2622
03:33:31.440 --> 03:33:37.760
acting, a very good story.
It's got like some actual from when it

2623
03:33:37.799 --> 03:33:41.159
came out. The people that were
making this you can tell like they were

2624
03:33:41.200 --> 03:33:45.120
affected by the Vietnam War and a
lot of the whole military aspect plays a

2625
03:33:45.120 --> 03:33:50.719
big part of the story. I
could see this being really big if people

2626
03:33:50.799 --> 03:33:54.639
have never checked this out and going
God, yeah, like that's a relatable

2627
03:33:54.680 --> 03:33:56.440
thing for all of us that grew
up with family members of the military or

2628
03:33:56.879 --> 03:34:00.680
went to the Iraq War or whatever. There's so much that you can find

2629
03:34:00.680 --> 03:34:05.600
in this movie to relate to.
The kills are fantastic, the Gore,

2630
03:34:05.680 --> 03:34:09.600
it's Savini. It's a huge win
and again great release from Blue Underground.

2631
03:34:09.879 --> 03:34:11.799
There's not a ton on the disc, but they do have an audio commentary

2632
03:34:11.799 --> 03:34:16.120
with the director and Tom Savigni and
then behind the scenes featurette on his Gore

2633
03:34:16.159 --> 03:34:22.760
footage, which again it's the highlight
of this film. I love practical Gore

2634
03:34:22.200 --> 03:34:26.079
and the Prowler is like top notch
for practical Gore. Yeah, that has

2635
03:34:26.120 --> 03:34:33.239
some of the greatest Tom Sevini makeup
effects of any movie. And yeah,

2636
03:34:33.239 --> 03:34:37.600
that's also one that I always hear
people hoping will get a four K sometime

2637
03:34:37.760 --> 03:34:41.760
because I think it would just look
so great. I agree, and it's

2638
03:34:41.760 --> 03:34:46.440
one of those it's so much at
night that it would shine with great HDR.

2639
03:34:48.639 --> 03:34:50.760
Yep, yep, yep. That
was a great pick, all right,

2640
03:34:50.879 --> 03:34:54.840
sir, Final one, my final
one, and this is my favorite

2641
03:34:54.879 --> 03:35:00.440
of the five and like the like
the Slayer. Yeah, I had not

2642
03:35:00.520 --> 03:35:07.159
heard of this until Aero put it
out, and I think it's nearly a

2643
03:35:07.200 --> 03:35:11.920
masterpiece. That's how much I love
this movie. And I don't put around

2644
03:35:11.959 --> 03:35:18.399
that word that often. And this
is nineteen eighty One's what mad House?

2645
03:35:18.399 --> 03:35:24.360
Oh? Wow, have you seen
that? I've not seen this one.

2646
03:35:24.840 --> 03:35:31.280
This is a very early arrow release. Let's see, it's like twenty fifteen

2647
03:35:31.360 --> 03:35:35.680
or sixteen. I think at least
seventeen. Okay. It actually came out

2648
03:35:35.719 --> 03:35:37.719
within just a few months of The
Slayers, so they were like really on

2649
03:35:37.760 --> 03:35:46.159
a roll that year. But our
Mad House is Oh, I gotta say

2650
03:35:46.159 --> 03:35:54.440
the director's name because it's so great. Oh video g Asinitis night. He

2651
03:35:54.799 --> 03:36:03.200
had previously made The Beyond the Door, the original, but this movie okay.

2652
03:36:03.239 --> 03:36:05.959
So it came out the same year
as Happy Birthday to Me, and

2653
03:36:07.079 --> 03:36:11.719
they're very similar in a way because
they're both centered around the main character's birthday

2654
03:36:11.799 --> 03:36:18.239
coming up. And but this one's
better, I would say. And I

2655
03:36:18.280 --> 03:36:24.360
do like Happy Birthday to Me,
but this one is everything is great.

2656
03:36:24.399 --> 03:36:26.479
Like from the very beginning, I
was blown away, Like I the first

2657
03:36:26.479 --> 03:36:30.879
time I watched this, I knew
from the opening credits that this was gonna

2658
03:36:30.879 --> 03:36:33.719
be my type of movie. It
starts out with yeah, an opening credit

2659
03:36:33.799 --> 03:36:39.000
sequence that's set to the creepiest version
of Rockabye Baby that you'll ever hear.

2660
03:36:41.000 --> 03:36:46.520
It sounds like as if tiny Tim
was asked to sing a nursery rhyme and

2661
03:36:46.440 --> 03:36:50.559
he just wanted to scare the hell
out of you, because that's exactly what

2662
03:36:50.639 --> 03:36:58.559
it sounds like. But the general
idea is the main character, Juli esh

2663
03:37:00.079 --> 03:37:03.760
her birth her twenty fifth birthday is
coming up. And I also love a

2664
03:37:03.760 --> 03:37:07.959
good countdown in a in a horror
movie, and this like counts down,

2665
03:37:07.040 --> 03:37:11.440
so it's like five days until Julia's
birthday. Nice firth day is till her

2666
03:37:11.479 --> 03:37:20.239
birthday. So she was born with
a twin sister named Mary, and Mary

2667
03:37:20.520 --> 03:37:28.120
was very twisted and sort of sort
of abused her her sister Julia, and

2668
03:37:28.799 --> 03:37:35.799
was eventually sent to a mental hospital
where she's currently still at and she's also

2669
03:37:35.120 --> 03:37:41.399
suffering from a skin disease at the
same time. But she's like very unhinged,

2670
03:37:41.200 --> 03:37:48.200
and just a few days before their
twenty fifth birthday, she escapes naturally.

2671
03:37:50.399 --> 03:37:56.600
But and then yeah, there's yeah, people around her are being are

2672
03:37:56.680 --> 03:38:07.000
being found dead. She I love
that it really takes the time to really

2673
03:38:07.040 --> 03:38:11.440
focus on the characters. The main
character is just so well drawn from the

2674
03:38:11.479 --> 03:38:16.559
script. She teaches at a school
for the deaf, and it I mean

2675
03:38:16.600 --> 03:38:20.479
the movie really could have just like
washed by that, but like it actually

2676
03:38:20.520 --> 03:38:28.200
takes the time to really show her
teaching the kids. It's very empathetic towards

2677
03:38:28.280 --> 03:38:35.600
the deaf community, towards the students. You know, there's one student who

2678
03:38:35.200 --> 03:38:41.280
passes away, and it actually like
there's a scene where she's actually like working

2679
03:38:41.520 --> 03:38:43.840
helping them to work through their grief. And the fact that a movie,

2680
03:38:45.079 --> 03:38:48.920
like a slasher movie like this actually
like takes time out to do something like

2681
03:38:48.959 --> 03:38:54.600
that, I just think it's working
on another level. And then the main

2682
03:38:54.719 --> 03:39:00.000
character, she's played by Trish Everley, and this was her one and only

2683
03:39:00.200 --> 03:39:05.000
role, and she is so spectacular
in it that I just like to think

2684
03:39:05.079 --> 03:39:09.479
that she just figured that there was
nowhere for her to go a bit down,

2685
03:39:09.600 --> 03:39:11.159
so she just like got out of
the business after that. I'm too

2686
03:39:11.200 --> 03:39:16.760
good. Yeah, I can't get
because like if it's your very first role

2687
03:39:16.799 --> 03:39:20.600
and like you're in almost every scene
and like it's this good of a role,

2688
03:39:20.719 --> 03:39:22.440
Like yes, it's in a slasher
movie, but like it's really well

2689
03:39:22.479 --> 03:39:28.600
done, and I just feel like, yeah, I just I've tried searching

2690
03:39:28.719 --> 03:39:31.399
for her just out of curiosity online
to see what happened to her, and

2691
03:39:31.440 --> 03:39:35.639
there's like nothing, like I have
absolutely no idea what happened. It's the

2692
03:39:35.639 --> 03:39:41.600
only credit that she has on IMDb. But she's great, and like you

2693
03:39:41.639 --> 03:39:48.000
could just imagine her becoming like a
huge actor if she had continued on and

2694
03:39:48.239 --> 03:39:52.319
but and then and then yeah,
it culminates on her birthday. It's so

2695
03:39:52.479 --> 03:40:01.760
twisted what happens. There's there's multiple
surprises, there's and then it ends with

2696
03:40:01.840 --> 03:40:07.559
this existential Georgia Bernard Shaw quote like
before the end credits, and it actually

2697
03:40:07.559 --> 03:40:13.600
earns it like it's it's not overwrought, like it actually like makes sense like

2698
03:40:13.680 --> 03:40:18.360
with the end, and it actually
leaves you thinking about life. And it's

2699
03:40:18.440 --> 03:40:22.719
like an excellent, like like really
deep thing. So I'm just like,

2700
03:40:22.959 --> 03:40:28.959
I love this movie. Do you
do well selling it? I I think

2701
03:40:30.079 --> 03:40:35.479
I have Mad House and I'm gonna
need to pop it in soon's I think

2702
03:40:35.520 --> 03:40:37.840
I have Mad House. Yeah,
because this is one of those ones that's

2703
03:40:37.840 --> 03:40:43.399
been out so long, it's been
very cheap. A few times. Yeah,

2704
03:40:43.440 --> 03:40:45.319
I can't. Yeah, whenever you
get around to it, I know

2705
03:40:45.360 --> 03:40:48.479
you're a little busy but whenever you
do get around to it, I can't

2706
03:40:48.520 --> 03:40:52.479
wait to hear what your what your
thoughts are because everybody that I've talked to

2707
03:40:52.559 --> 03:40:56.239
who also discovered it when Aero put
it out, they felt the exact same

2708
03:40:56.280 --> 03:41:01.799
way that I did. So Yeah, so when I was thinking of my

2709
03:41:01.879 --> 03:41:05.959
top five that didn't get a sequel, and again I had never even heard

2710
03:41:07.000 --> 03:41:13.840
of it. So but it's my
favorite of the five. Well mine is

2711
03:41:13.879 --> 03:41:18.000
also my favorite when we decide on
this topic. This is the only one

2712
03:41:18.040 --> 03:41:20.040
that I put on a list and
said, I know I will talk about

2713
03:41:20.079 --> 03:41:24.799
this one. Let me fill it
in with four others. And this is

2714
03:41:24.840 --> 03:41:28.559
a movie that I'm not gonna say
the twist in case you've never seen it,

2715
03:41:28.280 --> 03:41:35.040
but it is made or broken by
the very specific twist in this film.

2716
03:41:35.280 --> 03:41:39.959
But what's funny when you watch it
and you pay even like half attention,

2717
03:41:39.600 --> 03:41:43.200
it's not a twist in any semblance
of the word. It is quite

2718
03:41:43.280 --> 03:41:46.280
obvious from about a third of the
way in this is what is happening.

2719
03:41:48.120 --> 03:41:52.520
But I have to go with one
of my favorites of all time, Jeff

2720
03:41:52.600 --> 03:41:56.319
Lieberman's from nineteen eighty one, which
I think, like six of our picks

2721
03:41:56.600 --> 03:42:05.040
were from nineteen eighty one, probably
just before Don. This is have you

2722
03:42:05.079 --> 03:42:11.360
seen this one? Okay, thank
goodness, just before Don is a masterpiece.

2723
03:42:11.479 --> 03:42:15.319
I think this is also one that
Synaps I believe has indicated they are

2724
03:42:15.399 --> 03:42:20.079
going to do a four K.
I think eventually that's the current plans this

2725
03:42:20.079 --> 03:42:24.280
This movie is great. It's a
handful of friends that are going up to

2726
03:42:24.559 --> 03:42:30.639
the middle of the woods to camp
and they come across a very sweaty and

2727
03:42:30.799 --> 03:42:37.000
probably drunk George Kennedy who does all
of the stereotypical like don't go any farther,

2728
03:42:37.360 --> 03:42:41.319
ye, kids, it's dangerous type
of you know, warnings to all

2729
03:42:41.319 --> 03:42:46.120
these kids, and of course they
don't listen. They go up and yeah,

2730
03:42:46.159 --> 03:42:50.040
it is dangerous. They shouldn't have
gotten any further. There's not a

2731
03:42:50.079 --> 03:42:54.680
lot of like really super thought out
gore, but the way this is acted

2732
03:42:54.840 --> 03:42:58.600
and the story that is behind this
is fun. But the biggest thing,

2733
03:42:58.719 --> 03:43:01.840
the twist is like the exact type
of film I love to watch. It

2734
03:43:01.920 --> 03:43:09.159
is for some reason that style of
we're gonna use this very obvious conceit which

2735
03:43:09.360 --> 03:43:13.239
There's another Arrow release from the eighties
that is a slasher that never got a

2736
03:43:13.280 --> 03:43:15.840
sequel. That when you said that
you were gonna do two Arrow, I

2737
03:43:15.879 --> 03:43:20.840
thought maybe it was gonna be blood
Rage, So oh yeah, that's that's

2738
03:43:20.879 --> 03:43:26.079
a good one too. This one
is just it's so eighties. It is

2739
03:43:26.200 --> 03:43:33.040
so like really funny from from a
certain point of view, there's very like

2740
03:43:33.920 --> 03:43:39.959
stereotypical skinny dipping shots. There's this
bridge sequence that they make like extra tense

2741
03:43:41.000 --> 03:43:45.479
and scary. Uh. It's it's
just a fun damn movie. And if

2742
03:43:45.479 --> 03:43:48.680
you've never seen Just Before Dawn,
the Code Red releases out there. It

2743
03:43:48.719 --> 03:43:52.440
was re released by Keno I think
at some point or maybe not, but

2744
03:43:54.440 --> 03:43:58.319
it's been out in a couple different
releases and it's good. But if Synaps

2745
03:43:58.360 --> 03:44:01.239
puts out a four K, this
is going to get a lot of love.

2746
03:44:01.360 --> 03:44:03.959
And I really hope you're there for
it because it's one of the greatest

2747
03:44:05.040 --> 03:44:09.280
of all time. It's it's one
that's so well made and fun and Jeff

2748
03:44:09.319 --> 03:44:13.239
Lieberman is great at what he does, but just trying to craft that story

2749
03:44:13.280 --> 03:44:18.399
without giving it away is really difficult. And no, it's not fully successful,

2750
03:44:18.719 --> 03:44:22.799
but it's it's mostly good and it's
very very fun. What do you

2751
03:44:22.799 --> 03:44:28.440
think Just Before Done? And it
also doesn't it open with Blondie's Heart of

2752
03:44:28.479 --> 03:44:33.959
Glass, which I always remember because
I'm always like, how did they get

2753
03:44:33.959 --> 03:44:37.600
the rights to that song? Yep, well it's code read doing it,

2754
03:44:37.680 --> 03:44:41.360
so they could have just not got
the rights, and then who cares on

2755
03:44:41.399 --> 03:44:46.000
home video too? But no that
it's a Yeah, it's an excellent film,

2756
03:44:46.559 --> 03:44:50.079
and I want to say this and
the least sexual way possible, that

2757
03:44:50.159 --> 03:44:54.440
it has one of the greatest fisting
scenes and all in all the film,

2758
03:44:56.440 --> 03:45:01.440
and that's all I'll say about that. Oh, Dustin, I'm so glad

2759
03:45:01.479 --> 03:45:11.280
that you're here. Man, Hen
solid picks no crossovers really shows how how

2760
03:45:11.319 --> 03:45:18.239
amazing the eighties were for slashers,
Like it was the genre. Uh,

2761
03:45:18.959 --> 03:45:22.840
the genre genre. I get,
That's what I was trying to go for.

2762
03:45:22.920 --> 03:45:26.399
There, the genre within genre film
that was super popular at the time.

2763
03:45:26.920 --> 03:45:31.319
Uh and obviously super big on practical
effects in all of them because the

2764
03:45:31.360 --> 03:45:37.639
CGI was not there yet. The
casting is really great most of the time.

2765
03:45:37.319 --> 03:45:41.639
Simoner says just before Donn is out
of print from everybody, so good

2766
03:45:41.639 --> 03:45:48.159
to know, don't overpay for it. Yeah, I think that's gotta come

2767
03:45:48.280 --> 03:45:52.840
come out again from somebody. Well, it's way too popular again. I

2768
03:45:52.879 --> 03:45:56.040
believe Synaps announced it when they announced
Street Trash was coming out on thur kyk

2769
03:45:56.319 --> 03:46:01.959
Oh awesome. So event well it's
Synaps, so that could be like another

2770
03:46:01.000 --> 03:46:05.760
three years. Yeah, lots of
nature shots, lots of daylight scenes.

2771
03:46:05.879 --> 03:46:09.760
Uh. Yeah, the code red
release is very soft. It will look

2772
03:46:09.920 --> 03:46:15.959
beautiful, I'm sure. Yeah.
I'm looking at some of the other like

2773
03:46:16.159 --> 03:46:18.600
picks that other people had mentioned,
and yeah, there's so many more that

2774
03:46:18.639 --> 03:46:22.680
we could have chosen that I really
liked. I mean Night School, I

2775
03:46:22.760 --> 03:46:26.159
really like Night School, Stage Fright, Oh yeah, stage Fright. I

2776
03:46:26.200 --> 03:46:33.959
love the al Killer. It's such
a great mask. No mention of pieces.

2777
03:46:33.040 --> 03:46:37.079
I love pieces. Oh yeah,
I was gonna when I was talking

2778
03:46:37.239 --> 03:46:41.079
about Mortuary before and I was talking
about Linda D. George, I was

2779
03:46:41.159 --> 03:46:54.319
gonna I was gonna actually reference her
famous pieces quote about bastards. Oh man.

2780
03:46:54.920 --> 03:47:00.200
Uh but yeah, yes, I
think that. Yeah, there's so

2781
03:47:00.280 --> 03:47:03.799
many. Yeah, I'm glad that
we didn't repeat any And yeah, that

2782
03:47:03.840 --> 03:47:07.520
just goes to show how how many
of there really are out there that are

2783
03:47:07.239 --> 03:47:13.440
quality films that I think a lot
of people sleep on. Stan says,

2784
03:47:13.479 --> 03:47:18.360
you love pieces to pieces, I
do, of course. Jake says Maniac,

2785
03:47:18.479 --> 03:47:24.440
which technically there's a quote Maniac too, kind of if you go buy

2786
03:47:24.479 --> 03:47:28.319
the alternate title for the Last Horses
Show. But Maniac is great obviously the

2787
03:47:28.399 --> 03:47:35.360
hard part. I don't know that
I call Maniac a slasher film. It

2788
03:47:35.479 --> 03:47:37.799
doesn't like when I watch it.
I mean, yeah, because well it's

2789
03:47:37.799 --> 03:47:43.040
sort of like told from the slasher's
point of view. It feels almost like

2790
03:47:43.079 --> 03:47:48.280
a true crime film more than a
slasher. Yeah. Yeah, it's more

2791
03:47:48.280 --> 03:47:50.239
of like a serial I think of
it more as like a serial killer film

2792
03:47:50.280 --> 03:47:54.239
than slasher. It's like Henry Portrait
of a serial Killer. I would never

2793
03:47:54.239 --> 03:48:01.319
call that a slasher. No,
No, definitely not. And then yeah

2794
03:48:01.719 --> 03:48:07.600
another yeah, graduation day. I
like that one. Graduation day is good.

2795
03:48:07.319 --> 03:48:09.639
Good, Yeah, lots of good
picks. I mean we could have

2796
03:48:09.680 --> 03:48:16.639
gone almost anywhere down this path.
And I mean ten releases all on physical

2797
03:48:16.680 --> 03:48:20.360
media, ten great films, lots
of like unique masks, lots of great

2798
03:48:20.440 --> 03:48:26.479
kills, most of them done very
well, and a lot of adults.

2799
03:48:26.680 --> 03:48:33.520
So which goes adults, Yeah,
it goes to prove that they're definitely were

2800
03:48:33.959 --> 03:48:37.680
they weren't all just like high school
tape movies. In fact, I think

2801
03:48:37.840 --> 03:48:43.040
all a minor adults I can't remember. I mean, like I said,

2802
03:48:43.079 --> 03:48:50.040
the closest thing for me was Mortuary
and they're in college. But so stands

2803
03:48:50.079 --> 03:48:54.840
bringing up Funhouse, and stand might
disown me and stop helping with the physical

2804
03:48:54.840 --> 03:48:58.319
media advocate. But I will say
I'm not the biggest fan of The Funhouse.

2805
03:48:58.479 --> 03:49:03.280
Oh well I am. I need
to rewatch it. It's been a

2806
03:49:03.280 --> 03:49:07.280
long time. Well no, it's
only been like two and a half years.

2807
03:49:07.879 --> 03:49:09.680
Yeah. I need to be in
a better headspace for The Funhouse to

2808
03:49:09.719 --> 03:49:13.399
see if I can appreciate it more. I'm sorry, Stan, I know

2809
03:49:13.440 --> 03:49:18.840
you're mister Hooper, but uh yeah, well I just love how like I

2810
03:49:18.879 --> 03:49:24.000
know a lot of people criticize Funhouse
because they think it's too slow, because

2811
03:49:24.159 --> 03:49:28.760
really they don't. They don't actually
go into the Funhouse until like almost an

2812
03:49:28.760 --> 03:49:33.319
hour into the movie, right,
and so, but I actually like just

2813
03:49:33.479 --> 03:49:39.559
following them through the carnival and just
I don't know, I always liked that

2814
03:49:39.680 --> 03:49:43.719
about it, and then once they
do get to the Funhouse, I think

2815
03:49:43.719 --> 03:49:48.680
it's very effective. Yeah, I've
always really liked it. It's got some

2816
03:49:48.719 --> 03:49:52.159
decent scenes. I think the hard
part of me and I don't know why

2817
03:49:52.159 --> 03:49:54.920
we're going on a die Tribe about
the Funhouse now, but the opening where

2818
03:49:56.079 --> 03:50:01.200
the how old is he? Like
thirteen year old brother is trying to grope

2819
03:50:01.239 --> 03:50:05.479
his older sister or whatever, Like
that's kind of gross to start your movie

2820
03:50:05.520 --> 03:50:13.159
like that. What are we doing? Toby? Yeah? And then and

2821
03:50:13.200 --> 03:50:18.079
then and then it follows the brother
who like wanted to go to the carnival

2822
03:50:18.319 --> 03:50:20.440
but she you know, it wasn't
gonna her. His sister wasn't gonna take

2823
03:50:20.520 --> 03:50:26.639
him, and then he goes to
the carnival and nothing really ever comes of

2824
03:50:26.680 --> 03:50:28.639
it. But I don't know,
I like the I don't know. I

2825
03:50:28.639 --> 03:50:33.239
think it has sort of, like
I don't know, an atmosphere to it

2826
03:50:33.280 --> 03:50:39.360
that I really like that I gravitate
towards. So yeah, it's even if

2827
03:50:39.360 --> 03:50:43.680
you aren't a fan, maybe yeah, a rewatch, maybe you could reconsider.

2828
03:50:43.879 --> 03:50:48.760
I like carnival films, and I'm
kind of amazed that I don't love

2829
03:50:48.760 --> 03:50:52.520
this one. I was just gonna
say, I'm surprised that it hasn't gotten

2830
03:50:52.520 --> 03:50:56.000
a remake. With all of the
you know, horror remakes that have come

2831
03:50:56.040 --> 03:51:01.120
out. I know, like years
ago there was rumblings that Eli Roth was

2832
03:51:01.120 --> 03:51:07.200
gonna direct a remake of it,
but that never came to be. But

2833
03:51:07.479 --> 03:51:13.639
yeah, I'm surprised. I'm probably
gonna get slaughtered for saying this. I

2834
03:51:13.719 --> 03:51:16.280
this isn't like the type of thing
that I know people didn't love the Halloween

2835
03:51:16.319 --> 03:51:20.319
remake. I feel like Rob Zombie
could do good with a title like fun

2836
03:51:20.319 --> 03:51:26.360
house like it's just that weird off
the like off to the side, gross

2837
03:51:26.559 --> 03:51:30.319
like underbelly type of crowd that,
yeah, he should make that movie.

2838
03:51:30.360 --> 03:51:33.159
That makes sense that I think,
Yeah, we need to get that to

2839
03:51:33.239 --> 03:51:37.760
him, because yeah, it would
totally be like House of a Thousand Corpses

2840
03:51:37.120 --> 03:51:41.319
that said in front at a carnival. Stan is probably typing like nine hundred

2841
03:51:41.360 --> 03:51:45.879
words right now to cuss me out
after saying Rob Zombie should remake a Toby

2842
03:51:45.879 --> 03:51:48.200
Hooper film. But uh, yeah, I would love to see that.

2843
03:51:48.479 --> 03:51:52.559
I mean I was, Yeah,
I was deeply offended in two thousand and

2844
03:51:52.559 --> 03:51:58.399
seven when the Halloween remake came out, And I've gotten more used to it

2845
03:51:58.440 --> 03:52:01.159
as the years have gone on and
I've watched it, like, I don't

2846
03:52:01.360 --> 03:52:05.959
dislike it as much as I did
the first time around. And I'll defend

2847
03:52:05.000 --> 03:52:09.000
his Halloween two to the end of
time. It's so good, Like people

2848
03:52:09.000 --> 03:52:11.639
who say that that's one of the
worst movies, Like, I don't understand

2849
03:52:11.680 --> 03:52:16.200
it. I think that's one of
the great Halloween sequels. It absolutely is,

2850
03:52:16.239 --> 03:52:20.200
because the entire franchise is not even
that great. Like, there's a

2851
03:52:20.399 --> 03:52:26.920
few really great Halloween films, and
that's clearly one of them. Well,

2852
03:52:28.120 --> 03:52:30.680
I mean, we did it,
and now it's been almost four hours,

2853
03:52:30.680 --> 03:52:35.000
so I give you your night back, Dustin. You you've been a remarkable

2854
03:52:35.040 --> 03:52:39.920
guest. I cannot wait to have
you back. I think that everybody should

2855
03:52:39.920 --> 03:52:43.799
be following Dustin. Check out his
book The Fright File. Anything else that

2856
03:52:43.840 --> 03:52:48.559
you want to say or highlight or
turn people to before we leave. No,

2857
03:52:48.920 --> 03:52:54.079
just yeah, I'm on yeah,
Facebook and Instagram and all of that,

2858
03:52:54.239 --> 03:52:58.680
and I think you have all of
the links down below if you're interested.

2859
03:52:58.799 --> 03:53:03.200
And but I just want to thank
you for having me and this.

2860
03:53:03.840 --> 03:53:07.719
It was such an honor to be
on your show. I absolutely look forward

2861
03:53:07.719 --> 03:53:11.639
to this every Thursday watching it,
so to be on it, it was

2862
03:53:11.799 --> 03:53:15.360
just yeah, it was a thrill. So thank you. Thank you,

2863
03:53:15.479 --> 03:53:18.799
sir. You've made it a better
and more high brow show just by showing

2864
03:53:18.799 --> 03:53:22.920
your face. So thank you.
The last thing I'll say to everybody.

2865
03:53:22.559 --> 03:53:26.440
Normally I might say something like check
out the Patreon or something, but the

2866
03:53:26.440 --> 03:53:30.319
big thing, yes, I do
have another thing coming out, which I'm

2867
03:53:30.319 --> 03:53:33.600
an idiot for I get that.
Please go check out Film Foundations. One

2868
03:53:33.680 --> 03:53:39.719
thing I didn't say earlier when I
was running it down everything about Disconnected,

2869
03:53:39.000 --> 03:53:43.799
it's in the name. Everything has
been focused on physical media, which I

2870
03:53:43.840 --> 03:53:48.719
love. I will never ever make
that something that goes away. But I

2871
03:53:48.840 --> 03:53:52.959
don't get people that come to this
to talk about film all that often when

2872
03:53:54.000 --> 03:53:56.920
watching Reconnected, I have all kinds
of people watching for the announcements, and

2873
03:53:56.920 --> 03:54:00.440
then if you look, the moment
the announcements are done, we go to

2874
03:54:00.440 --> 03:54:05.040
talk about film. Viewers drop off
like crazy. And not that I'm dying

2875
03:54:05.079 --> 03:54:07.799
for people to watch or listen or
something like that, but I want more

2876
03:54:07.840 --> 03:54:11.360
of a place to talk about film. That is my passion. That is

2877
03:54:11.399 --> 03:54:13.319
why I buy these releases, That's
why I highlight these releases, That's why

2878
03:54:13.319 --> 03:54:18.360
I work on these releases. So
I really wanted somewhere to really gush about,

2879
03:54:18.600 --> 03:54:24.360
to learn about, to decry sometimes, and really just discussed to the

2880
03:54:24.399 --> 03:54:30.120
ends of the earth, everything and
anything concerning film. So check out Film

2881
03:54:30.159 --> 03:54:33.440
Foundations first, real episode drops May
first. Dustin you must be a regular

2882
