Hey, Gravies, thanks so much for joining us this week for another episode
of Gray Girls Podcast. As always, it's me your host, Hawthorne,
and it's me Amillis. And this week we're doing our first ever minisode Monday.
Whoooooo, let's have Hawthorne explain it and what a minisode Monday will entail
is. We're gonna obviously talk about a movie still link it to a murder
and no sleep scary story, but we're gonna keep it super brief because these
were movies that we feel all of you should watch, especially if they're like
newer movies. We don't want to be given away all them spoilers and be
like, you should watch it. But we did like this part and this
part and this was cool. Yeah, for sure. The only reason we're
a little behind again, besides the whole quarantine situation and everything else going on,
I've been trying to work from home, Amaryllis. I started working again,
so I'm back to working nine ten hour days, six days a week.
So that's cool. Oh, tell them what your new position is.
She went from manager too. Oh. Yes, I used to be a
manager and it was cool because I worked for a year and a half doing
it, and I come back and they go, guess what you get to
be the person who counts people into the door with a clicker and stands there
all day long, which mostly all, it's not a bad job. I
personally like to be busy in doing something and standing in one spot clicking a
button for nine hours straight is really boring to me. So it's been kind
of killing me going back into like the flow, trying to address to this
new normal. I hate that sentence me too, but it's true. Has
just been like really hard on us mentally and physically, Like my body's not
used to getting up and working for nine hours a day anymore. I'm used
to staying in bed and eating ice cream and sleeping. Like the Quarantine fifteen
that everyone gained mine was like a Quarantine twenty Like that ship made it so
hard. So sorry if our episode for the next little bit or a little
late. We're tired, but we're still trying for you guys, because we
love you. We do, and we really missed recording as much as we
used to back in twenty nineteen before everything started getting crazy. But you know
what, it's gonna be, Okay. We hope all of you are safe.
Hope that this mini sde well brighten your day, make your Monday a
little less shitty. Just another manic Monday. Do you know that song?
Yeah? I love that song. I sing it all the time. Yeah,
yeah, that's a bombas song. Let's rewrite it for minisode Monday.
I'll do it. It's just another minute sue Monday. Yep, that's it.
There we go, no music. I hope you guys know that song.
Everyone's like, what the fuck song? Oh my god? So to
start off our first ever Minnisota Monday, we chose the movie The Platform or
El Hoyo I think it's what it's called. Yeah, we chose the Platform.
It's on Netflix. We wanted to pick movies easily accessible for everyone,
especially since we're all home. I probably watched it three times, just because
I really wanted to like get it. But I liked the movie. What
did you think about it? Without giving anything away, I did like it.
I watched it also about three or four times. Okay. One thing
that I hate about the movie hate hate you're laughing it way right now.
It's dubbed, but not dubbed right correct, So the people talking the mouths
do not match the words being said, which you also do not match the
caption. Yes, it's like, so there's three different things getting thrown at
me, and it's such a sensory overload to watch it because I'm definitely one
of my ears. I need the captains on but I can't. So that
killed me. So I had to watch it a couple times. Plus.
They have weird foreign names, and not in any bad way. We're not
trying to say anything wrong about having weird names. I mean, our fucking
names are Hawthorne and a Marillas. You don't get any weirder name than that,
But like go Rang and then his roommate trum Agassi, and then the
crazy girls Mihru. I mean the names were hard enough to learn. Yeah,
so it was so hard for me to remember, like, oh wait,
so what was his name again? And then instead of having to call
him like oh it's the crazy girl, it's you know, the main character.
We want to be like, oh his name is this, her name
is this? You want to, you know, give respect to them,
movie, to the characters, but trying to remember those it was so hard.
On that note, I think the acting was really well done. I
would say it was better acting though. It was very most movies I've seen
recently I also really liked. So I've been trying to get my husband to
do concrete floors in our kitchen and bathroom since we moved into this fucking house.
The whole aesthetic of just being in a concrete room, I was like,
I love it. It's all minimalist, it's all nice. Oh my
god, I love psychopath. It was cute. You are a psychopath.
I love their cell. It's so cute. It's so minimalist. I just
lived there. There's a bed there. It's great. You know, gotta
pay to be in there when you come out. You got a free degree.
Oh my god, you would go in there. I would go in
there. Would you go in there? No? Never? For nothing?
What I need a degree for. I'm going to pay fifteen dollars an hour
to click a button? Okay? They offered you like your dream bookstore that
you would own or something. I have to be in there for a year
and sometimes I have to wake up down on floor three hundred. No,
you can go in there. I think I would get wrapped in like a
dumbass. I would be like Goring, and I would go in their volunteers
like a dumb maass. Yes, maybe there are people who haven't watched it
yet. Please watch Platform, pause it, now, watch it. Don't
put on the captions, don't look at their mouths. Just watch the movie.
Enjoy the aesthetic of the concrete room. Just watch and listen. Just
watch it without watching them. Just put a thing, a tape over the
middle of your screen where the mouths normally are, and for the most part
you should be okay. See, I'm used to the mouths not matching up
with the words and everything because I watch a lot of things that are like
foreign films and foreign shows on Netflix. See. I think they're done really
well, and I'm sure you can get used to it. It's just an
overload for me being like unable to hear and read and I can't focus on
all three things. I'm gonna read the beautiful synopsis simmerless row, and we're
gonna get it right into it, So here we go. The Platform is
a psychological thriller about a man named Goreng who voluntarily enters the pit for six
months in order to earn his degree. He wakes up a level forty eight,
confused and meets his new roommate named Trimagassi, who has been inside for
almost a year on a charge of man slaughter. He tells Goreng everything he
knows about the mysterious platform and the rooms. Then they meet me Haru,
a woman who is searching for her child, and goes down the levels of
the pit until they're reunited. The two lived together peacefully for a month,
Goreng reading his book that he brought and Trimagassy telling him about how he got
there because of his self sharpening knife called the Samurai, plus who is weird.
After the month, they wake up on a much lower level, level
one seventy one, and things between them get real cutthroat, literally fucking fun
Truemagassi. When Truemagassi decides to eat gore Ring to stay alive, since once
the platform gets to the lowest levels there isn't any food left, Goring does
what he needs to survive, learning the real dark side of the pit until
he wakes up on a higher level and tries to beat the system once and
for all. We know. That was like the longest synopsis we've ever given,
but it's because we're going right into our favorite parts up to this point,
and I know, we don't really explain what the pit is, but
neither does the movie. It's just called the pit. It's just a really
long tall building that goes underground that has a platform in the middle of it,
and it's called the pit, and people get sent down there, and
yeah, you'll see the rest for all kinds of reasons. You can go
involuntarily to get something a word to someone. Yeah, probably the criminally insane
can get thrown in there because some of the lower level people there was like
married couples in there, I think, and it was just kind of like
the ones above, Yeah, where are they in there? So we know
as much as you guys do from this. So the part we're going to
start at is when Goreng gets his new roommate, which and it's a man
named Baharat. I don't know if I'm saying it right because I don't even
think they say his name even once. The item his roommate decided to keep
with him is a long rope, and his plan was to get as high
up as a level as he could so that hopefully the people above him would
grab his rope he could climb all the way to level one and hopefully escape
or something. I don't really know what his whole plan was, but that
was basically the gist of it. So this is my favorite part of the
movie. He talks to the people in level five and there's an unspoken rule
in the pit where the people above you don't fucking care, and the people
below you they kind of have to listen to you because their food is literally
in your hands. When the platform comes down from level one all the way
down. All the way down, everyone is just eating everyone else's leftovers.
The higher up you are, the better you are, like in life.
Yeah, So when they're on level six, he pleads to the man on
level five. He's like, please, God sent me here, can you
take my rope and help me ascend? And it's a married couple and he's
like, honey, you should we help him up and she's like yes,
of course. He throws the rope and they hold it for him to climb.
He starts climbing the rope, and right before he's up on their level,
you see a white butt and you're like, what what is his ass
doing? In the corner of the screen. When he looks up, the
man on level five shits on his face. So Okay, was that real?
I don't know that was the realest looking shit. If it's not,
he didn't really, I don't think he really pooped on it. Disgusting.
How does it look so real? You can make some real looking poop,
I think. But it came out of the butt hole so real. Oh
my god, two great girls, one cup. People listening. If you
guys haven't watched that, please don't watch it. You don't need to watch
it. I was gonna say, I'm so jealous of you if you've ever
seen it. After he gets pooped on, he falls back on his level,
holding his face. He's so disgusted. He can't believe which has happened.
The married couple of level five's laughing hysterically. He's like, fuck you,
we're on level five. You're trash. And in that whole thing,
he ends up dropping his rope, meaning any other attempt he could have had
to get to a higher level is now gone. Goring being at horrible levels
of this pit. He has experienced hunger, he's experienced almost getting murdered,
He's experienced kind of love. Still unsure if that sex scene is real or
not. I like this part because with everything Goring has been through, and
we don't know what the other guy has been through. We kind of get
a little bit of backstory on him as they go down the levels. But
they both realized they're done with the pit. They're done eating leftover. They're
tired. They know that there's people starving to death at the bottom and no
one care. They come up with this plan. Yeah, no one gives
a shit. Well one guy did, Wow, well done. That was
good. And they come up with this plan where they are going to make
plates, little rations, and they're going to feed everyone just the rations,
and only after level fifty because they realize all those people have eaten, everyone
died ying at the bottom doesn't need to die. If everyone would just eat
what was given to them, they wouldn't have this problem. So they both
arm themselves with whatever they can find and they begin they're to scent deeper into
the pit and the people they see down there. Though when they first go
down to a level, they'll go down like level fifty one or like let's
say, level sixty nine because hat and the people can either be like,
oh, thanks so much for the food, or get violent because they see
there's still a lot of food on the platform and they're like, no,
I'm so fucking hungry, And sometimes Goring and his friend would have to beat
them up and then leave the food and be like, here, eat this
before we leave, and they started killing people. Yeah, because if you
kept any food, the cell they're in would either get super hot and boil
you alive or super cold and freeze you to death. You had to eat
whatever you could in the time allotted. So this is actually my favorite part.
Directly after yours. It kind of goes in it because you kind of
see Goring snap and you see the other guy snap. They're just they're done.
I don't care. We're going to try to fix this room, beat
the system. We got this, and they, like I said, start
killing people. If someone comes after them, Fuck you you're dead. Bashed
you in the head. Sorry, tried to feed you. Beat your being
a dick. Sorry. You can see the items everyone decided to bring them.
One guy brought like a million dollars. He's just rolling around. Why.
One of them brought like a kiddie pool. He's sitting in it with
his roommate. Yeah. I really do like this because you see all the
fucking weird people on the lower levels. They get down into the two hundreds,
they're like, I didn't think it went down this far. They had
all heard that it only went down to level two hundred, and that is
not correct. And they keep going farther and farther, and they start noticing,
Hey, the platform isn't stopping in a lot of these rooms, and
they pause and they're like, shit, it's because no one's alive in those
rooms, so why would it stop. So there's just hundreds of dead bodies
in this building that have to get cleaned out every day. So they finally
get down to the bottom, bottom last room and it's levels three hundred thirty
three, isn't it, which means half of six six means six hundred sixty
six people are in this place, which is very symbolic because literally the pit
is hell. And on the bottom last level you see a little child,
this sad little like I don't know, less than ten years old, yeah,
I don't know the age, somewhere around ten years old child hiding under
a bed, and you're like, oh shit, Mihar really did have a
kid in here. There's really a kid down here, starving in every month.
She obviously made it down to help keep the kid alive. The mom
somehow would make it down with maybe some food hidden in her clothes or something,
despite being raped, assaulted, beaten, killed, kept for a few
days at a time, because if you go on the platform, you are
at the mercy of the people whose level you land up, and you don't
know. They could have brought a fucking chainsaw and they just cut you open.
When you get down there, I'll let my lovely Hawthorne explain the ending
involving the child, so when they get down to the bottom they can tell
the little girl is hungry. They had been protecting this beautifully prepared panicotta.
It's even in like little glass thing crystal. Yeah, it's beautiful, and
they wanted to keep it pristine and have it on the top of the pile
of shredded leftovers and show the people upstairs that even though we're all starving to
death, you know, we managed to keep one food untouched. I don't
really know what they thought that would show them. Well, what they were
planning was the panicota would be sent back up while everything else was empty,
because it means someone didn't want that. Oh that wasn't good enough for even
the lowest of people. Wow. Yes, But they decide to give the
delicious, beautiful Panicotta to the little girl because she looks hungry, and that's
when they both start succumbing to their injuries. It's a really epic fight their
way down to the bottom of the pit, and they get this idea to
put her on the platform because once it reaches the bottom, it shoots back
up to the top with really high speed, and they put her on the
platform and I guess have her escape now have them see a child in the
pits, So I think it would be like the people on top don't understand
what's happening inside. Yeah, especially all the people who are like on the
levels and they're just being greedy, being greedy, they don't understand that.
Oh no, the children are what we need to be caring about. They
are the future of society. We're just totally neglect acting them, obviously putting
them at the bottom. No one cares about them. They need to see,
like, hey, this is what's important, not all of this bullshit.
This innocent child. Plus leading up to this point, you weren't even
sure if the child was real or not. They try to flip flop you
from like believing her to not believing her. Yeah, they tell you that
Miharu was crazy. She didn't come in with a kid. She was a
want to be model, and you kind of think she doesn't even look like
that type. So it was kind of unbelievable in that aspect. But my
least far part of the movie is actually the ending because you know what they
do, you guys, They leave it open ended. My least favorite shit.
Yeah, we talked about that, but that's why we thought it'd be
a perfect first minisub Monday. So you guys can tell us what you think
the ending means, and we're going to share what we think means. What
do you think happens to the little girl at the top? Well, like
I just said, I think like they said, to the top and they
saw her and they went, oh shit, we've been doing this. We've
been literally killing these people for no reason, trying to teach them a lesson,
when the real lesson is like invest in children, invest in the future.
Nothing's more important than like making sure the world goes on. I'm hoping
that she got to the top, and I just wish they kind of would
have showed her walking through the kitchen you know, we didn't really talk about
it. We didn't talk about it at all. Maybe they ate her,
but they showed the kitchen and it's like a legit kitchen. Every day,
all these professional ass chefs are making this huge, beautiful platform full of a
lot of food, more main dishes in China and crystal glassware Deepa had to
replace every day. Like what if she got up there and instead of like
trying to escape, she just kept hiding like she had been at the bottom
to stay alive. That's kind of what I think happened. Weird. I
know, I'm worried what one item would you bring with you? Since everyone
has allowed one item of their choosing in the pits, it can be anything.
Literally, what do you think you would bring with you without knowing information?
But then knowing the pit what do you really think you would bring with
you? Well, without knowing any information, And I'm just told, Hey,
you're going to go and like this building with like a random person for
like a month. Then I don't know this person. I would probably have
to bring some kind of weapon just in case, because I am a five
foot female. What do you think like a knife? Something bigger than a
knife? Probably something like not like a sword, something easy, like a
machete. Okay, that's a good one, something sharp like that. But
knowing the pit, I think a weapon would also be good. But I
would do something like that astronaut food. Yeah, just like a big old
buckets full, like the powdered food because they had a sink. Yeah,
they had a sink, so you could just powder. That's food. It's
disgusting, but I'll keep you alive for your year. You have to be
in there for sure. Yeah, So knowing it, I would do something
like that. What about you? What would your first item without knowing be
and your second item with knowing be. Dude, I'm so annoying. I'm
like going I bring a book everywhere I go. I really think I would
bring like a sketchbook and a pencil, one hundred percent serious. So I'd
probably choose something dumb like that and be fucked. Knowing what I know,
I agree with you, and I would try to bring some type of like
I don't want to say gridanola bar or bombs, but some kind of unperishable
food and large quantity that I could possibly feed me in my roommate through the
duration if not longer. I don't think there's a limit on what you could
bring. That guy did bring money or he got money for going in.
The other guy had a fucking pool. That thing was huge. Some guy
has a surfboard, like I'm sure you could be. Like I'm bringing in
my like palette of food. What if you brought in like a really nice
bed, like I have a really nice bed. What if I wanted to
bring my full ask king size beds? They're just gonna keep moving in.
Oh what if you brought a gas mask so when they gass you to change
levels, like you would be awake, but you didn't know you need it.
I know, I'm just saying, I'm just talking shit. Okay.
Another thing in the pit, when they're asking you when you're gonna be admitted
or whatever you want to call it, they ask you what your favorite meal
is because it might be included in the menu. It's definitely it is your
favorite meal. Oh, especially during this quarantine when a lot of people can't
even eat their favorite foods because of their favorite restaurants being temporarily closed. Okay,
I really love primary with what sides where it's like that big meaty thing
and you just cut off the big yummy, delicious and all like the odd
juice comes out and you use it to dip your ship. Oh that was
fucking mashed potatoes on the side, garlic mashed potatoes. That sounds really good
right now, Its some fucking like grilled asparagus. Yeah, like green beans
or something for sure. So that's what I would want. It's the bigg
ass yummy roast beast in that would be gone by level five, yeah,
because I'd be on level two eating them. Also, Oh great, I'm
part of the problem. See my thinking for the Trail of Food. When
I first saw it, I thought that obviously, if everyone only ate what
they needed to be fine, But I kind of thought your favorite food was
designated for you. That was my first original thought the first time I watched
it. I think it's supposed to be but like Goring got snails, that
snails wouldn't have been a whole meal for a whole day. True, you
know, true, I know that's not no one wanted it, which I
thought was funny. That was funny, like, think of your favorite food.
Everyone's like, oh, because my favorite food in the world was pokey.
Then you go good because I'm down on level eighty two, when I
get my fucking whatever, and what would your food be my food? I
would pick a poke bowl, But the seaweeds. What if they gave you
like the really tiny little b at the sushi restaurants when you ask for a
poke and they bring you like two pieces of two auntie of seaweed, It's
fine. I'd still eat it. You gotta say, like, I want
a poke bowl, but in like how you said a big ass. You
gotta say I want a poke bowl, but in the bowl that they served
the olive garden salads. In olive garden salad also sounds you know, I
freaking love olive garl love old salad. Look I miss Oligarden. When Goring
and Triuma GOSSI find themselves on one seventy one and they had to resort to
eating human flesh. Do you think you could eat it if you had to,
I don't know. I feel like it just I feel okay, yeah,
because I've eaten pig feet so good, and I really like the weird,
like slimy part of the flesh perfectly. Yeah, So I figure it'll
be like eating that but like raw, So it's like a little grosser but
if I could stomach pig feed for like a long time, I'm sure I
could in order to survive. I obviously would not immediately, but like if
I was about to, like I can't move and everything's blurry, then I'm
like, well, shit, fine, here's a bite that would you be
able to I think I would be able to eat it, but I would
have tried to eat like the maggots too, instead of eating more of the
flesh, like try to eat the bugs that are accumulating. Yeah, but
yeah, I think I could do it. And last question I have to
ask him, do you think that Goring and Baharat to die at the end?
Yes, let me do How else would they have gotten up? They
were so he had a big ass cut in his stomach like he was dead.
They were dead. They were dead. Hopefully all the people that they
killed would make it the platform come down sooner and hopefully the next day they
could just jump on it. Oh my god. No. So that is
our very quick overlook of platform. We did not discuss everything. We want
you to watch it. We want you to comment on Instagram and Twitter what
you think that ending means, what would you bring with you and what is
your favorite dish of all time. Oh and if you make your favorite dish,
send us pictures. Why do you write the movie out of five?
What would I rate it out of five? Probably a three and a half
to a four, maybe a three point eight. It's I told you the
voice thing. Just really it's very like political, which I'm normally not super
into, but it's like scary in the sense of like, oh shit,
that's happening. Because it's a really good movie to watch at least once,
maybe twice if you like to discuss it, and I think it is something
everyone should watch, especially now, for sure, especially now. We originally
want to to record this episode when Quarantine first started and people were you hoarding
all the toilet paper and hoarding all the food, because it reminded us of
this movie, everyone hoarding for themselves as the platform comes down, without even
thinking about the welfare of others. That being said, I would say I'd
write the movie a solid three only because I know I love how it looked.
I don't really like movies where they stay in like the same place the
whole time. Even when they were at the bottom of the pit, it
was just pitch dark, so they couldn't even see what was down there,
and it was huge. It looked way bigger than the normal cell and there
was only one bed, so it was kind of like they knew she was
down there. I wish they would show the ending. Don't like that at
all, but I like it so we can talk about it. I do
recommend it and definitely watch it, and I let us how much you guys
think, and we're back joining us now? Is that really is going to
share her story? Thanks Oloren. Well my store this week was posted on
This Sleep My Favorite place in the World by someone named Illusionistic one three three
seven, and it's called the Reason I Quit being a Cannibal. There wasn't
much I could do about it, not until now. Being a cannibal was
a natural instinct as I grew up simple as that. But this incident,
which was life changing, did the difference. However, before I on set,
I would answer the frequent questions did I get to kill the meat?
No? Instead I bought it. Did you feel good to eat it?
Duh? I was a cannibal, of course. How did I quit it?
Well, here's my story. I woke up feeling the hunger ripping the
innards. As for that, I realized that I needed another charge of meat.
Hence, I did the usual routine, and after a while, I
opened the laptop with both tour Browser and VPNs in. I ran the browser
and logged in the website that I used to purchase the meat. The protocol
is or was simple. I purchased the meat, the cellar drops it in
a specific address, I take it, and that's it. This time the
cellar wasn't there and there was a replacement. It was as dubious as it
sounded, since there wasn't a reason for the original cellar to vanish out of
nothing. But with hunger knocking in and out, I was obliged to do
it, and so I bought the meat and had the address. I drove
the car to there. It was a warehouse. I entered it. It
was cold as the December's wind. The metal walls were rust and the dust
made it harder to breathe or see. Nevertheless, the package was there,
so I picked it up and drove it back home. The package contained the
brain, distorted head, and ribs. I brought the brain, put it
in a pan and let it on the stove. I cooked the head with
the margarine and the ribs, however, were put to roast and what was
left made quite a nice barbecue. It was so nice the meal. The
taste was incredible, and I believed the human meat is the purest meat of
all kinds. As a matter of fact, it doesn't contain the animals smell.
It is delicious, just like Master Chef's recommendations. I finished the meal,
took a shower, and as it got late, I slept. I
woke up the next morning with over ten vocal messages left hell. I thought
I was busted at that time, but that wasn't the case. It was
a call from the cops. I was asked to come over for something serious.
At the time I arrived at the police station, the officers looked at
me with a glance of bad news. I expected the worst. Then the
detective came in. Mister Arderson, there was a crime in the last twenty
four hours and we tried to reach you, but we couldn't. However,
I'm afraid to tell you that we found a distorted dead corpse near a lake
two miles from here. He said, I what do I have to do
with this? I stuttered as my nerves grew harder. Mister arterson. We
had a match with the corpse's fingerprint. I'm sorry, mister Arderson, your
sister Anne was brutally murdered and left there, and trust me, we're going
to find whoever did this, but for now we believe it's a revenge related
crime. And how could that even happen? She was the kindest, I
replied, as I couldn't breathe right, and I started to wine. It
didn't make sense to me, but I followed them to the corpse and cried
for hours where nothing seemed to be an option to do. I cried.
We had a funeral for her, and I was in a deep sorrow about
the whole thing. A week later, I logged into the website I used
to purchase the meat from Strange. I had a message that was unread.
You asked for the best package, and we delivered that the meat was a
relative's meat, and what tastes better than that? Right? It said.
At the moment I gathered pieces and I realized, I ate Anne, I
ate the closest relative I have. I ate my own sister. Oh my
god, as I realized I was noting but dead inside, the fact that
my sister was dead made me depressed and mad, and now with the fact
that I was the one who ate her, I don't even want to live.
However, questions left unanswered. How did the seller know? How did
he know who I was, who she was? What did I ever do
to him? What did I do wrong? And the most important question is
how am I going to find him? And that's the end of the story.
Oh my god, what a cliffhanger, but in a good way.
See, I'd watch that movie, right, So I picked this one because
it's a story of how he ate He would meet a lot and then he
stopped because something horrible. But in platform he had to start eating human meat,
you know, because of something horrible. He didn't want to, but
it's something you get driven to sometimes you just get like that, craving for
like a steak. But like we were saying, would you be able to
eat human meat? Would it change you? Do you think it changed Goring
forever? Do you think Truma Gossy? I mean him and his roommate eight,
that person that fell down, remember they talked about that. No,
he killed his roommate and ate him. Do you think that changed him forever?
I just thought he was really interesting and he was cannibal related. Yeah,
that's a really good story. So Hawthorne, what's your murder this week?
Concidentally, our stories go together, and I want the Gravees to know
we don't plan this at all. We actually try to like surprise each other.
So when they do fit together so well, I love it. It's
pretty cool. The murder I'll be discussing this week is the murder of Kevin
Bacon. Kevin Bacon was a twenty five year old hairdresser and makeup artist.
He had two cats named Smokey and Fuzzy. He was loved by his friends
and family. On Christmas Eve twenty nineteen, at five pm, Kevin told
his roommate Michelle Myers that he was meeting up with the dude he met on
grinder. At six to twelve pm, he texted her saying that he was
going to be out for a while and wasn't sure when he'd be back,
but he told her that he was having fun. The next day, Christmas
Day twenty nineteen, Kevin was supposed to meet his family at nine am,
but he never showed up. His dad, Carl Bacon, went to the
police and reported him missing. Eventually, Kevin's car was found in a parking
lot. Inside the vehicle, they found Kevin's phone and wallet. This is
weird, especially for a twenty five year old. In this day and age,
no one goes anywhere without their phone and wallet. Oh yeah, no,
dude, I freak out. But maybe Kevin was leaving behind a clue.
On Friday, December twenty seventh, search parties were formed and unfortunately,
Kevin wasn't found, but what police did find would crack the case wide open.
On Kevin's phone, they found messages between him and a man named Mark
Latunski, so they went to his house to question him. The next day,
December twenty eighth, Mark Lutunsky opened the door and allowed police to enter
and search his home. Police couldn't prepare them as for what they would find
in the basement. Inside the basement, they found a hidden room. Inside
that room, they found Kevin Bacon's deceased corpse, naked, bloody, and
hanging from the rafters. The police arrested Latunsky and he immediately admitted to stabbing
Kevin twice in the back of the neck, tying him up with rope,
hanging him upside down by his ankles, and slitting his throat. Oh Lucie
admitted it. I know, I hate when they don't. He then castrated
Kevin, cooked his testicles, and ate them. Latunsky had similar trysts with
other men prior to meeting Kevin. One of his previous victims was a man
from New York. On October tenth, twenty nineteen, he woke up in
Latunsky's basement. He was tied up and he thinks he was drugged. Nearby,
he saw a butcher knife, so he grabbed it and used it to
cut the leather strap connected to his ankle. Once he was free, he
escaped from the house and called nine one one, but he didn't want to
report anything, which is totally fine. I know it's hard to report any
crime. His second victim was a similar incident as well. This victim was
a twenty nine year old man. He had met Latunsky at a bus station.
Latynski was hitting on him, so they grabbed a drink together. The
next thing he knew, he woke up in a basement, chained and wearing
a leather kilt. He too was able to get free, but didn't report
anything. On January eighth of this year, Mark Latynsky had a competency exam
and was found to be mentally incompetent to stand trial. That's all I know
for now on this murder case, as it is still ongoing, but I'll
keep y'all updated, but as of now it is delayed. I linked this
murder to the movie The Platform because in the film, goreng was tied up
by Trumagossi and had pieces of him eaten, and at one point Trimagossi even
said he wouldn't eat his genitals until later. But in this case, when
Mark Latynsky tied up Kevin, the only pieces of his flesh that he ate
were his genitals. My sources for this case we're Washingtonpost dot com, Newsweek
dot com, and USA Today, and that's my case. Disgusting. I
think it's crazy that we both chose cannibalism out of all the themes in this
movie. To choose cannibalism the funnest, very interesting. I wonder what that
says about us On another level, I'm hungry all the time. Anyway,
that's our episode. Thank you guys so much for joining us this week for
