00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:13.919
Hello, and welcome back to the
round table. We have another film review.

2
00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:17.280
I'm David Flora. I'm the host
of the Blurry Photos podcast. With

3
00:00:17.320 --> 00:00:20.960
me is Derek Hayes of Monsters among
Us. What's up Derek? Hello,

4
00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:27.399
everybody, Thanks for having me back
or whatever. I'm glad to have you

5
00:00:27.480 --> 00:00:32.640
back. I'm glad to have you
so enthused. Definitely. We've got Justin

6
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:35.880
Zinger from the zing This podcast.
What's up? Justin? Oh? Nothing

7
00:00:35.960 --> 00:00:41.000
much. I'm actually wearing all black
unintentionally for this. This was not intended.

8
00:00:41.039 --> 00:00:44.359
But black shirt, black pants.
I'm in the mood. There you

9
00:00:44.439 --> 00:00:51.719
go. He is the muscleman in
black. Now we are covering the nineteen

10
00:00:51.920 --> 00:00:58.479
eighty nine British television horror film The
Woman in Black. Derek, you had

11
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:00.840
mentioned that you'd never heard this one
before. Zinger? Is that same for

12
00:01:00.920 --> 00:01:07.879
you too? Oh, I have
never ever heard of this before. Then

13
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:11.280
one's hearing about it. I was
like, oh, I regret knowing of

14
00:01:11.319 --> 00:01:15.719
this now sort of. And Derek, what did you think on hearing this

15
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:19.439
picked? Quite honestly, I misread
your text and thought we were doing the

16
00:01:19.920 --> 00:01:25.799
Daniel Radcliffe version this whole time until
about this morning. I think so this

17
00:01:25.840 --> 00:01:26.480
whole time. I was like,
oh, well, you know, it's

18
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:30.319
not what I would have picked,
but it sounds like it's a good movie.

19
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:33.760
And then I learned it was the
nineteen eighty nine made for television version,

20
00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:38.840
and let's just say I would like
my two hours back. So there

21
00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:45.200
was another film version of this released
in twenty twelve, and it did star

22
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:49.560
Harry Potter himself. Also Kiaran Hines, who if you are a fan of

23
00:01:49.719 --> 00:01:55.319
HBO's Rome, he was Caesar.
He's been in like almost everything you would

24
00:01:55.359 --> 00:02:00.760
recognize him. But I couldn't find
that streaming for free anywhere the time when

25
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:04.079
I picked this, so I said, let's do the nineteen eighty nine film.

26
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:10.280
And I think the other one is
streaming now on Pluto TV. You

27
00:02:10.319 --> 00:02:15.080
can watch it with ads, but
it's free. I watched it today actually,

28
00:02:15.719 --> 00:02:21.159
and now I am sad that I
picked this one as well. So

29
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:24.479
white, did both of you watch
The Radcliff one? Two? And I

30
00:02:24.520 --> 00:02:30.000
just didn't know. I haven't seen
The Radcliff. I was just sort of

31
00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:32.039
looking forward to watching it. I
watched the trailer for it and I was

32
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:38.759
like, oh, interesting next.
Yeah, I'll talk a little bit about

33
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:43.120
that later. So this is this
is, like I said, a television

34
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:50.000
horror film as directed by Herbert Wise, and the screenplay was Nigel Neil,

35
00:02:50.360 --> 00:02:53.680
very British. It's based on or
it's adapted from the nineteen eighty three novel

36
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:58.159
of the same name by Susan Hill. It's kind of wild that they got

37
00:02:58.199 --> 00:03:00.560
a whole novel out of this story, but here you go. One of

38
00:03:00.599 --> 00:03:07.599
the most interesting things about this is
it premiered on Christmas Eve nineteen eighty nine,

39
00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:13.120
and then they did not show it
again for like five to six years,

40
00:03:13.719 --> 00:03:17.280
and people were like, what was
that? Because people were freaked the

41
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:22.840
f out by this picture. There
is one scene in particular, I think

42
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:25.280
that did it for people. We'll
get to that. Yeah, I think

43
00:03:25.319 --> 00:03:29.599
I know which one you're talking about
too. Where were you gonna say,

44
00:03:29.639 --> 00:03:30.879
Derek, I was just gonna say, I'm trying to put myself in the

45
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:36.039
nineteen eighties mindset. You know,
we hadn't seen all these crazy things at

46
00:03:36.039 --> 00:03:39.319
the time. Maybe we had,
It wasn't more effective then, I guess,

47
00:03:39.400 --> 00:03:43.000
and that information kind of helps me, like, I know what's seen

48
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:46.599
you're talking about And Okay, freaked
me out too, but mostly because my

49
00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:51.120
speakers couldn't handle whatever sound they were
pumping through it, and it sent like

50
00:03:51.159 --> 00:03:54.319
infra sound my direction. I don't
know it did something audibly that the rattles,

51
00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:00.800
it rattled something. Yeah, I
think you're right about putting yourself in

52
00:04:00.840 --> 00:04:06.080
the mindset at the time. I
mean, everybody's gathered around the fireplace and

53
00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:12.840
Christmas Eve, you know, Santa's
gonna come that night. The kids maybe

54
00:04:12.840 --> 00:04:16.639
are in bed, but maybe they're
staying up just you know, everybody's basically

55
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:20.360
on vacation. Everybody's just kind of
chilling, relaxing with family, and then

56
00:04:20.439 --> 00:04:25.360
this thing comes on the friggin TV
and it's like, oh, well,

57
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.160
this looks like a fun time.
Maybe we should watch it instead of you

58
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:33.160
know, Miracle on thirty fourth Street
or Scrooged if they could get that on

59
00:04:33.199 --> 00:04:35.879
TV at the time. I think
that was like a year earlier. But

60
00:04:36.040 --> 00:04:40.079
anyway, people turn this on the
TV and then it's like, what are

61
00:04:40.120 --> 00:04:43.079
you gonna do? Now? You're
gonna be awake for the rest of the

62
00:04:43.199 --> 00:04:47.040
year. So I think it is. I think it's the mindset and the

63
00:04:47.319 --> 00:04:50.839
you know, people used to tell
scary stories around Christmas time, around the

64
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:55.079
winter solstice. So yeah, back
I was gonna stay back in the day.

65
00:04:55.120 --> 00:04:59.160
That was sort of a thing,
and it's referenced in what song is

66
00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:03.720
that being bing Crosby um dreaming of
a white Christmas maybe, where her references

67
00:05:04.680 --> 00:05:10.160
UM telling ghost tales by the fire
or something man that that that that that

68
00:05:10.160 --> 00:05:13.959
that that that. It's in the
back of my head those that file doesn't

69
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:16.160
get open for another month and a
half, so I don't I can't remember

70
00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:20.800
off the top of my head.
One of them references scary ghost stories and

71
00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:27.519
something of the Here you go,
we're getting three grown men and figure this

72
00:05:27.560 --> 00:05:30.360
song out. I'm not helping in
this scenario, so good luck you two.

73
00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:35.399
At the point being they used to
tell ghost stories Christmas, I can

74
00:05:35.439 --> 00:05:39.720
see that that sounds like a very
Nordic thing to do, if that makes

75
00:05:39.720 --> 00:05:43.959
any sense. Sure sounds Nordic.
So anyways, let's let's go through the

76
00:05:43.959 --> 00:05:46.720
plot a little bit. There's not
a lot to it. Or on one

77
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:49.680
second, if if if if,
if you don't mind, gentlemen, I

78
00:05:49.720 --> 00:05:54.319
mean, if it pleases the course, if it pleases you guys, Now

79
00:05:54.920 --> 00:05:59.920
you guys run your paranormal podcast.
I of course have a pop culture podcast.

80
00:06:00.040 --> 00:06:03.000
This is movies are more my realm. So what we do on zygnis

81
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.759
every time we talk about a movie
is we go over the tomatoes. So

82
00:06:06.800 --> 00:06:11.199
I looked up the Rotten Tomatoes for
this and gentlemen, I don't know if

83
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:15.240
you did, but I would like
to quiz you two on what do you

84
00:06:15.399 --> 00:06:20.040
think the tomato score is the for
this movie? Derek, I'm gonna go

85
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:26.519
with you first. Now I'm talking
tomatoes the actual reviewers, not the audience

86
00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:29.399
score. You can guess both,
but I'm going with how fresh is that

87
00:06:29.439 --> 00:06:33.120
tomato? I'm making some sun dried
tomatoes for my sandwich or are those going

88
00:06:33.160 --> 00:06:38.120
into compost? Well, let's start
with a made a remake of it,

89
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:43.000
so it had to have been somewhat
successful. It's stuffy and British, so

90
00:06:43.040 --> 00:06:46.560
I feel like that gets it a
couple of notches right there. I think

91
00:06:46.600 --> 00:06:50.519
it's surprisingly high. I'm gonna say, like forty forty four percent on Rotten

92
00:06:50.519 --> 00:06:57.800
Tomatoes, so that would be a
certified rotten Tomato's higher than it needs to

93
00:06:57.839 --> 00:07:01.600
be. Okay, David, I'm
trying to put myself in the mindset of

94
00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:06.839
reviewers that hopefully take into consideration the
time period it came out. I'm gonna

95
00:07:06.839 --> 00:07:12.279
say, sixty three percent. Okay, all right, all right. So

96
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:17.199
with that being said, gentlemen,
and you dear listler one hundred percent alpha

97
00:07:17.319 --> 00:07:26.680
five reviews on Rotten Tomatoes by reviewers, it's got a one hundred one hundred,

98
00:07:27.480 --> 00:07:31.759
one hundred now audience score over a
thousand reviews, seventy eight. So

99
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:42.480
I know now as the comparison the
remake with with UM Action Superstar Daniel Radcliffe,

100
00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:44.800
don't know what action movie he was
in to get that title, but

101
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:51.800
UM Guns Akimbo, Swiss Army Man, Swiss Army and the Summer another UM

102
00:07:53.279 --> 00:08:00.959
sixty six percent on Tomato meter for
the remake, fifty four percent audience score.

103
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:05.000
So definitely apparently the remake did not
what was not the critical darling that

104
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:11.480
the original was with its solid from
five reviewers. So what does that tell

105
00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:15.319
you? Nostalgia goes a long way
when it comes to films. I think

106
00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:18.560
you're right, it's kind of surprising. I feel like the newer one was

107
00:08:18.639 --> 00:08:24.480
not bad. I would actually suggest
people watch both just but we'll get into

108
00:08:24.480 --> 00:08:26.759
that. Let me yeah, yeah, So I want to take that moment

109
00:08:26.759 --> 00:08:31.759
because I said, it's always something
fun to see where everyone else lied with

110
00:08:31.800 --> 00:08:35.879
these and see if we're in the
minority, the majority or wherever. Anyway,

111
00:08:35.919 --> 00:08:39.279
it sounds like it didn't get enough
eyes on it to make a competent

112
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:46.919
score. Anyways. All right,
So the plot is there's a solicitor,

113
00:08:46.960 --> 00:08:52.720
a London solicitor named Arthur Kidd.
He goes to a coastal town because there's

114
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:58.440
an old widow who has died.
She's reclusive. She lives in this estate

115
00:08:58.480 --> 00:09:03.600
this man and that's out on the
sand bar like it's on a little kind

116
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:09.559
of island that's only accessible when the
tide is low and asked to get to.

117
00:09:09.879 --> 00:09:16.080
Yeah. Yeah, it's called Eel
Marsh House. So it's already you

118
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:20.120
know, it's already firing on all
cylinders. Are you guys fans of Mighty

119
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.120
Boosh? Since we're talking about English
media, are you familiar with Mighty Boush

120
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:26.279
at all? No. I've liked
what I've seen, but I haven't seen

121
00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:28.759
a lot. I've been a huge
fan of that for a long time.

122
00:09:28.799 --> 00:09:33.559
My roommate Will who worked on the
film with us, David, he had

123
00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:35.840
to go to London for work one
time and he came back with a DVD

124
00:09:35.960 --> 00:09:39.240
of The Mighty Boosh and I was
just hooked from them. But anyways,

125
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:46.080
say that because there's a whole episode
about eels and they're like, cockney,

126
00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:48.399
Yeah that's the one. Yeah,
I don't know, I know that whenever

127
00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:52.279
somebody mentions eels, I can't help
but think of the musical number that of

128
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:58.679
the episode. But can heels up
inside? Yeah that's a good that's a

129
00:09:58.679 --> 00:10:01.159
good catchy song. If you guys
can find Mighty Bouche, I highly recommend

130
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:05.519
it. It is stupid, but
it's pretty entertaining. Yeah, apparently streaming

131
00:10:05.519 --> 00:10:09.080
on Hulu. Hey, there you
go, there you go. Continue.

132
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:11.399
Sorry, it didn't mean that derail
you, So that's all right. He's

133
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:16.080
the setting is nineteen twenty five and
this guy, Arthur Kidd, he's kind

134
00:10:16.120 --> 00:10:20.240
of a he's a lawyer that works
for this firm he's trying to make partner.

135
00:10:20.320 --> 00:10:26.000
But he's a little bit too friendly
with the help. And that doesn't

136
00:10:26.000 --> 00:10:31.080
mean sexual, that means that all
the paralegals and people who work for the

137
00:10:31.159 --> 00:10:37.879
lawyers he's buddies with. He treats
them like human beings, and the partners

138
00:10:37.919 --> 00:10:41.320
of firm don't like that. And
there's this one stodgy old d bag who

139
00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:45.519
is like if you want to succeed
here, stop talking to the help,

140
00:10:45.720 --> 00:10:50.480
like, stop being such a nice
guy basically, and he's like, if

141
00:10:50.480 --> 00:10:54.080
you want to further your career here, we need you to go out here

142
00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:58.080
and take care of this old widow's
estate, you know, out in the

143
00:10:58.120 --> 00:11:01.440
middle of nowhere. I'll marsh house. And he's like, all right,

144
00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:03.919
I'll do that. You know,
I'm a company man. So he goes

145
00:11:03.960 --> 00:11:07.039
out to he takes a train out
to this place. It's a it's a

146
00:11:07.159 --> 00:11:11.960
very small coastal town again, and
there's not much going on. He shocks

147
00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:18.240
up at a little in pub kind
of place and everybody whenever he's like,

148
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.720
oh, I'm here from London.
I'm going to administer the last will of

149
00:11:22.759 --> 00:11:26.919
this old widow, everybody starts throwing
him these glances, and you can tell

150
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:31.559
right away there's something going on.
People are like, oh, that plays

151
00:11:31.559 --> 00:11:37.679
that woman. Maybe you should like
move on with your life. Maybe you

152
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:41.519
shouldn't be here. It's that classic
moment in every horror film where the music

153
00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:45.200
stops and everybody puts their drink down
and turns and looks at him like he's

154
00:11:45.200 --> 00:11:48.120
going where like you got do what? Yeh? I think there actually was

155
00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:52.360
a moment when I'm not trying to
jump ahead, but the one moment where

156
00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:54.200
he's like, I'm gonna go back
out there. The people standing behind him

157
00:11:54.200 --> 00:11:58.519
when he turns, they all like
act like they're not paying attention, even

158
00:11:58.519 --> 00:12:03.840
though there's they're literally standing right behind
him, and he saw them turn like,

159
00:12:03.879 --> 00:12:07.080
oh no, wait, David,
before you continue, can I point

160
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:11.919
something out I noticed throughout the film, and this is the first point that

161
00:12:11.960 --> 00:12:15.080
I want to get at. It
reminded me a lot of other films and

162
00:12:15.120 --> 00:12:20.120
other stories, and this whole section
was very Dracula to me. You know,

163
00:12:20.840 --> 00:12:26.159
Barker going to Transylvania, Arker,
sorry, Barker going to Transylvania to

164
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:31.279
deal with Dracula's estate and all this
stuff. I think he was buying property

165
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:35.200
in England or something, if I
remember right something Abby. It's been a

166
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:39.240
while since I've read it or seen
the movie, but it was very Dracula

167
00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:41.440
esque the way it all kind of
played out. And even the scene where

168
00:12:41.440 --> 00:12:45.240
he was in with the boss that
you were talking about, he was talking

169
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:48.000
down to him like, don't talk
to the help clean yourself up. He

170
00:12:48.039 --> 00:12:50.759
had like baby vomit on his arm
or something, because he has kids,

171
00:12:50.960 --> 00:12:54.879
he's a family. That reminded me
of the opening of Sleepy Hollow, Tim

172
00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:58.600
Burton's Sleepy Hollow from nineteen ninety nine, and it made me think that it

173
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:03.200
might be inspired because it's Tim Burton. Of course he's seen this movie.

174
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:05.600
Like there's no way in hell he
hasn't seen this movie like on Loop probably,

175
00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:11.679
And just the way the framing of
it, and the way that I

176
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:13.759
don't know the partner whoever it was
talking down to our main character, the

177
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:18.519
way he communicated it was all just
very Sleepy Hollow esque. Where Ichabod Crane's

178
00:13:18.519 --> 00:13:22.240
at that beginning courtroom scene where he's
like, I need to dissect the body.

179
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:24.759
I need to have a look and
see how he was murdered, how

180
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:26.679
he was killed. And he's like, no, no, no, we're

181
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:31.480
gonna ship you up north to the
scary place. You have no idea that's

182
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:33.120
in mind, you have no idea
what's coming. It's a good call.

183
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.919
It does have a lot of trappings
of other stories, and it doesn't really

184
00:13:39.000 --> 00:13:43.480
veer away from that either. Because
he gets to the house. It's it's

185
00:13:43.559 --> 00:13:46.919
creepy, but it's just because it's
a big, old place that hasn't really

186
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:50.159
been taken care of because this would
awa has been invalid and she's been taken

187
00:13:50.200 --> 00:13:54.279
care of by a you know,
it's basically a was a hospice for her

188
00:13:54.320 --> 00:13:58.200
for years. And he has to
go outside and like crank the generator to

189
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.960
get electricity bought. That's like one
of the only places that has electricity around

190
00:14:03.039 --> 00:14:07.279
there, so that was interesting.
But at one point he's outside, he's

191
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:11.200
out front and it's foggy as all
get out, and he hears this awful

192
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:18.120
crash of like a horse and buggy
carrying a family, and there's screams and

193
00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:22.720
it's just harrowing, but he can't
see it and he can't run, Like

194
00:14:22.840 --> 00:14:26.080
he tries to run out to see
if he can help, but he ends

195
00:14:26.159 --> 00:14:30.799
up stepping in the marsh because he
can't see the road it's too foggy,

196
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:33.240
and so then it all goes quiet, and he's like, what the hell

197
00:14:33.279 --> 00:14:37.240
just happened? Well, this keeps
happening to him. He keeps hearing this

198
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:43.159
crash and the screams in the fog, and he never is able to see

199
00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:46.960
anything happen. It's just the sound
of it. So he's already freaked out.

200
00:14:46.679 --> 00:14:50.799
She's there's a lot of little details. I don't want to get too

201
00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:54.399
deep and on this, but there's
a room that's locked that he can't get

202
00:14:54.440 --> 00:15:01.080
into. There's no key will work
that, and that comes into play eventually

203
00:15:01.159 --> 00:15:07.120
where he hears what is it a
thumping sound in there? Here's a thumping

204
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:13.559
Might hear a kid kid giggling or
something in Anyways, he gets I guess

205
00:15:13.559 --> 00:15:18.039
angry enough that he can't figure out
what's going on that he grabs an axe

206
00:15:18.360 --> 00:15:22.480
and runs back to that door and
it's open, and he's like, okay,

207
00:15:22.480 --> 00:15:26.360
and he opens the door and it's
like a child's playroom that's pristine,

208
00:15:26.480 --> 00:15:30.840
has not been touched, and maybe
there's a rocking chair rocking, or the

209
00:15:31.159 --> 00:15:35.639
well, a ball falls like from
the ceiling, or something rolls to him.

210
00:15:35.000 --> 00:15:39.000
And then he hears a voice right
yep, yeah, a little girl's

211
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.720
a child's voice, a little boy's
voice, a boy voice. I thought

212
00:15:43.720 --> 00:15:46.399
it was a girl's voice. I
thought it was a girl for the longest

213
00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:50.480
time, until they point out that
it was a boy later on it was

214
00:15:50.559 --> 00:15:54.399
Bart Simpson's voice. So it's both. He'll have a cow man, but

215
00:15:54.480 --> 00:15:58.879
he hears this this voice, and
then he gets freaked out runs away and

216
00:15:58.919 --> 00:16:03.519
then when he comes back to that
room, it's like trashed, completely torn

217
00:16:03.639 --> 00:16:07.519
up, very poulter Geist desk,
like from the Yeah, from the movie

218
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:10.919
Poulter. Guys, you're missing one
very important part that I thought you guys

219
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:17.799
would bring up immediately. This guy
essentially inventsd podcast. Oh yeah. He

220
00:16:17.879 --> 00:16:21.840
finds what do they call that a
phonograph or whatever wax cylinders he had with

221
00:16:21.919 --> 00:16:25.039
the wax cones, and he just
records his voice in the first he's goofing

222
00:16:25.039 --> 00:16:27.120
around and he's like, well,
welcome to monsters among us. He just

223
00:16:27.159 --> 00:16:33.000
starts his own podcast essentially where he's
narrating you know, what's going on,

224
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:37.039
and it's a pretty boring show,
honestly. But he finds these cones that

225
00:16:37.080 --> 00:16:42.080
were created by the widow in previous
time, which kind of fills in.

226
00:16:44.320 --> 00:16:47.879
She was podcasting first, yes,
and she had a much better program than

227
00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:51.919
he did. The quality was through
the roof. She had oudly murders in

228
00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:56.600
the building, yes, exactly.
So I thought that was funny. And

229
00:16:56.639 --> 00:16:59.480
then he starts hearing all these sounds. I'm like, idiot, you have

230
00:16:59.519 --> 00:17:02.960
the only according device in the country. Go take it outside and record the

231
00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:06.839
sound. But he doesn't Yeah,
there's a lot of a lot of decisions

232
00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:10.279
that I don't think I would have
made. But what he's doing is he's

233
00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:14.960
going through all the papers and the
effects and stuff to try and uh do

234
00:17:15.000 --> 00:17:18.640
the legal proceedings on how they can
sell it and you know, the last

235
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:22.240
will all that stuff. But he
he's also like, what happened to this

236
00:17:22.319 --> 00:17:27.000
woman and her family, because there's
just weirdness in the town with how they

237
00:17:27.039 --> 00:17:33.039
treated her and what they how they
talk about her. And he finds out

238
00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:40.200
that her child was killed in an
accident and it ends up being the one

239
00:17:41.640 --> 00:17:45.200
that happened out front, right,
that that the buggy went down in the

240
00:17:45.279 --> 00:17:48.640
bar and no one, no one
helped them, or something like there was

241
00:17:49.640 --> 00:17:52.880
or this. Okay, okay,
wait, let me back up. It

242
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.200
wasn't the woman whose house it was. It was her sister, right,

243
00:17:56.720 --> 00:18:02.279
I didn't get that, but possibly
I think I think it was. Geez

244
00:18:02.319 --> 00:18:07.440
it gets It's a very slow movie, everybody. It kind of got convoluted

245
00:18:07.480 --> 00:18:11.440
at the end. It's very slow. Yeah, yeah, it's it's very

246
00:18:11.519 --> 00:18:14.960
slow. I think it was.
Okay, I think it was her sister

247
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:18.880
gave birth to a child out of
wedlock, but she wasn't able to care

248
00:18:18.920 --> 00:18:22.359
for it, and this woman instead
adopted it. Couldn't have children, I

249
00:18:22.400 --> 00:18:26.079
believe, so she adopted a child
which was this child, which was her

250
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:30.440
her sister's child, So it was
she had adopted her nephew. Everyone's tuned

251
00:18:30.440 --> 00:18:34.839
out by now, Like, forget
about the movie. They've already tuned out

252
00:18:34.839 --> 00:18:38.440
of this show. I like how
David has also not pointed out at all

253
00:18:38.480 --> 00:18:45.839
that there keeps on appearing this woman
in black that can everyone see? Can

254
00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:49.319
be? Um? Can the Bastani
kids see it? And I'm saying Bistani

255
00:18:49.359 --> 00:18:52.880
instead of the other word they use. And if you're a D and D

256
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:56.680
player, that's a deep preference and
a deep cut, you're welcome. Yeah.

257
00:18:56.759 --> 00:19:00.079
Yeah, there's some there's some.
Uh, there's a sprinkling of racism

258
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:04.799
in the town. That's it from
the traveling folk that might have set up

259
00:19:04.839 --> 00:19:10.839
present anyways. Um, yeah,
one more thing. So the sister was

260
00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:15.119
mad that that she couldn't have her
child, so she tried to escape with

261
00:19:15.160 --> 00:19:18.440
a child one day and that's when
they they got caught by the tide.

262
00:19:18.440 --> 00:19:23.880
They died in the most violent carriage
crash in history to the longest and the

263
00:19:26.440 --> 00:19:32.400
soft mushy Marsh. They're crashing for
a good thirty second straight. Yeah,

264
00:19:32.480 --> 00:19:34.839
he sees. When he gets to
the town, he sees he attends this

265
00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:38.880
woman's funeral. There's nobody there but
him and you know, the priest or

266
00:19:38.920 --> 00:19:44.200
whatever, and one guy who's helping
him gets set up. He sees this

267
00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:49.200
woman in a black dress like mourning
material, you know, mourning gown off

268
00:19:49.240 --> 00:19:55.079
in the distance like classic. She
doesn't have an umbrella, but she might

269
00:19:55.119 --> 00:19:59.119
as well be standing in the ringing
at this funeral, overlooking it. And

270
00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:02.359
then when and then something that somebody
screams or something, he looks over and

271
00:20:02.400 --> 00:20:04.440
when he looks back, she's not
there anymore. Classic. Yes, he

272
00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:08.200
keeps, he keeps seeing her,
She keeps showing up. At one point

273
00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:12.559
into Marsh, he finds a little
graveyard. She's there. She starts walking

274
00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:17.000
towards him, and he freaks out
runs away. So, yes, thank

275
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:22.160
you for bringing her, and thank
you for bringing the title character into this

276
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:25.839
plot. I'm trying to get It
was easy to forget her, though,

277
00:20:25.880 --> 00:20:29.960
because she would show up and then
just disappear, like there was no resolution

278
00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:32.279
to any of the scenes that she
was in. Did he run out of

279
00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:36.200
the room did she disappear, like
what ended up happening? Can other people

280
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:41.000
see her? Well, yeah,
it's just him. The whole town kind

281
00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:45.480
of had that vibe, like he
would ask other characters questions and they just

282
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:48.680
flat out wouldn't answer him. They
would just respond with something else. They're

283
00:20:48.720 --> 00:20:51.359
like, oh, it's getting dark
out, he asked the one guy.

284
00:20:51.759 --> 00:20:53.480
I can't remember the question he asked
him a question the guys a past the

285
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:57.599
sault, Like it was so abrupt
and so obvious that he was trying not

286
00:20:57.640 --> 00:21:00.079
to answer him. So the whole
time, I thought, well, is

287
00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:04.200
our main character a ghost and this
whole town is still alive or vice versa,

288
00:21:04.279 --> 00:21:07.640
the whole town's a ghost. I
was giving it way more credit than

289
00:21:07.680 --> 00:21:11.720
it really deserved. I thought this
plot was much deeper. At a certain

290
00:21:11.759 --> 00:21:17.720
point, I thought for sure that
the carriage wreck was his wife and two

291
00:21:17.799 --> 00:21:21.880
kids coming to visit him, and
he was hearing it from the future.

292
00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:25.319
I guess, like haunting from the
future, because he had two kids,

293
00:21:25.359 --> 00:21:29.559
and I couldn't tell from the wailing
going on in that accident, the sound

294
00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:32.559
that you keep talking about if there
was one kid or two or how many

295
00:21:32.599 --> 00:21:37.039
people were involved, Like I thought
the one was a girl. Actually the

296
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:40.440
little girl was screaming, but it
was apparently a little boy either way.

297
00:21:40.440 --> 00:21:41.759
I thought that was what was going
on, and I was thinking, oh,

298
00:21:41.759 --> 00:21:45.119
well, it's kind of clever,
but they didn't do any of that.

299
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:47.880
None of that was done. How
did this movie in? David?

300
00:21:48.079 --> 00:21:52.759
Sorry, no, no, I
kind of was wondering that too. I'm

301
00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:57.519
like, is this like foreshadowing of
what's gonna happen to his family? Yeah,

302
00:21:57.680 --> 00:22:00.839
that's exactly what I is this clever? Is this? Like? What's

303
00:22:02.279 --> 00:22:06.720
is that what this is? And
well? Yeah, also that dog that

304
00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:11.279
so this That's what I think the
movie actually got interesting. It's so slow.

305
00:22:12.079 --> 00:22:17.160
But one of the guys that helps
him, that like picks him up

306
00:22:17.160 --> 00:22:19.960
from the train station and helps him
out in the town. He's got this

307
00:22:21.079 --> 00:22:29.480
little dog and the dog's named Spider. I like the explanation hate the name

308
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:32.680
or something, right like yeah,
yeah, he explains, He's like,

309
00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:36.200
oh, it's it's all it's you
know, all all hair and legs.

310
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:41.359
And I'm like I'm like, okay, great explanation. Still hate the name.

311
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:44.599
And then he's like, do you
want to borrow my dog? Yeah?

312
00:22:44.680 --> 00:22:47.559
He's like, take the dog with
you. You need company at that

313
00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:51.720
house, and I'm like, what
are you doing? Man? This is

314
00:22:51.960 --> 00:22:56.880
a recipe for disest who would lend
out their dog. There's no ways coming

315
00:22:56.920 --> 00:22:59.799
back to you. I'll never get
that dog back. I'll spoil it for

316
00:22:59.839 --> 00:23:04.000
everybody. The dog is okay.
The dog survives. So that's that's kind

317
00:23:04.000 --> 00:23:10.359
of my like litmus test for a
movie. Everybody in this movie, though,

318
00:23:10.359 --> 00:23:15.200
honestly, the only person that dies
is the widow. Do you remember

319
00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:22.519
the ending? Did you fall asleep? Forget something? As soon as the

320
00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:26.480
dog goes with him to spend the
night with him, the movie gets good.

321
00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:30.640
That's unfortunately, about three quarters of
the way through he has more supernatural

322
00:23:30.680 --> 00:23:36.480
stuff happening to him at the house. Basically, at one point he goes

323
00:23:36.640 --> 00:23:41.039
to bed and he's awakened by the
sound of this voice of this kid.

324
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:45.160
This might be is this at the
house or is it in town? At

325
00:23:45.200 --> 00:23:49.039
that point? The second time was
at the end. The second time here

326
00:23:49.160 --> 00:23:52.480
here's the voice is at the end. Yeah, I think he might have

327
00:23:52.519 --> 00:23:56.039
been finds the soul journer of the
pillow. I believe, yes. I

328
00:23:56.079 --> 00:24:00.920
think he might have had a nervous
breakdown, been taken into town. He's

329
00:24:00.960 --> 00:24:07.039
resting at the spider's owner's house and
then he hears he hears the kid and

330
00:24:07.160 --> 00:24:10.440
it wakes him up, and then
he feels under his pillow and there's this

331
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:15.720
little soldier, this little tin soldier
or whatever, which he keeps finding other

332
00:24:15.759 --> 00:24:18.440
places. He keeps, yeah,
keeps showing up in places, which is

333
00:24:18.440 --> 00:24:21.079
creepy. That's a fun thing.
But then all of a sudden, the

334
00:24:21.200 --> 00:24:23.640
kid talks. He's like, oh, what what are you doing? Bull?

335
00:24:23.839 --> 00:24:27.000
And he's like, what's your name? Who are you? And then

336
00:24:27.079 --> 00:24:34.079
the scene happens where this woman in
black just shows up floating above his bad

337
00:24:34.440 --> 00:24:45.799
bug eyed, just going and it
is that for a solid two minutes if

338
00:24:45.839 --> 00:24:52.920
it's a second, but that sound
was exactly what it sounds like. He

339
00:24:52.039 --> 00:24:56.119
is creepy, Yeah, it is. It's creepy, and it's funny because

340
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:02.279
she's she's doing nothing but floating there
and bug eyed and close up on her

341
00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:07.759
face and that's all you need because
it was it's creepy, and that's what

342
00:25:07.920 --> 00:25:11.839
has stuck with people all these years, I think. Anyways, he he

343
00:25:11.039 --> 00:25:17.640
absolutely loses his mind. He's sent
back to London, he recuperates and then

344
00:25:17.799 --> 00:25:22.119
he's he's just scarred because he finds
that that toy soldier in his briefcase.

345
00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:29.039
He burns the lawyer's practice down,
or at least his office. He burns

346
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:33.559
his practice. All the stuff from
the Woman in Black's house, including her

347
00:25:33.559 --> 00:25:40.319
original podcasting, Yeah, lost to
history. Yeah, wanted to nip that

348
00:25:40.359 --> 00:25:44.839
in the bud. And and sorry, I'll let you finish with what happens

349
00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:48.319
now. And then he returns to
his family. They're like, let's take

350
00:25:48.319 --> 00:25:52.279
it. Let's take a break,
let's go out boating on the on the

351
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:56.359
pond. I forgot about this.
But then he sees the Woman in Black

352
00:25:56.440 --> 00:26:00.240
and a tree falls on them the
end on the water, on the water.

353
00:26:00.599 --> 00:26:04.400
They're in the boat, there's the
woman in Black standing in the water

354
00:26:04.880 --> 00:26:08.119
like Jesus, and then the tree
falls on him. They spent all their

355
00:26:08.160 --> 00:26:11.920
budget on that. They spent all
their budget on their standing out there,

356
00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:18.960
I guarantee, like the meat pole, like the Metatron from Um Dogma Deep

357
00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:22.160
Kevin Smith cut, You're welcome.
I am going deep into the Alan Rickman.

358
00:26:22.480 --> 00:26:26.599
Yeah, Alan Rickman's character and Um
Dogma. So there, that's my

359
00:26:26.720 --> 00:26:32.440
reference point for that. What was
that in reference to the water, Oh

360
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:34.359
okay, yeah, because he does
that too, in the movie, not

361
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:40.680
just movie. So the movie ends
with the entire family dying. Here's the

362
00:26:40.839 --> 00:26:44.759
here's the point probably should have made
earlier. I'm all over the place whenever

363
00:26:44.799 --> 00:26:48.240
anybody sees the woman in black,
a kid is gonna die. That's what

364
00:26:48.279 --> 00:26:52.519
the town is so up in arms
about, because I think they're all kind

365
00:26:52.519 --> 00:26:56.640
of like keeping their heads low and
trying not to piss her off. And

366
00:26:56.680 --> 00:27:00.799
then all of a sudden he comes
to town, he starts seeing her,

367
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:02.799
and they're all like, well,
crap, now, what if our kids

368
00:27:02.839 --> 00:27:07.000
are going to die? Thanks?
Yeah, And they were hoping that would

369
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:11.799
be one of the Vastani kids,
and it almost He saves one of one

370
00:27:11.839 --> 00:27:17.079
of them from a cart falling on
it or something, legs falling off of

371
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:21.839
the cart on the legs, yeah, and a bigger log falling to where

372
00:27:21.880 --> 00:27:26.359
the kid was. Yeah. But
he's he saved this uh this this child,

373
00:27:26.759 --> 00:27:30.839
uh, a Romany child. I
think that's how we Romani. Yes,

374
00:27:33.599 --> 00:27:36.880
I've referred to it in the past. I'm just gonna keep saying Vestani

375
00:27:37.440 --> 00:27:42.160
for the DND reference. That's this
film. It affected people. Um,

376
00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:47.279
how did it affect you guys?
It affected me big time. I had

377
00:27:47.880 --> 00:27:51.920
had a busy day to day,
and looking back, it affected me a

378
00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:56.640
lot because I could have had that
time. Like you could literally condense this

379
00:27:56.680 --> 00:28:00.640
film into like a five minute short, it might be affect if it's basically

380
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:07.640
what's the best way? It's Season
one of Unsolved Mysteries, the world's longest

381
00:28:07.720 --> 00:28:11.200
reenactment. That's what you're watching right
here. The budget, the budgets super

382
00:28:11.200 --> 00:28:17.680
low, the actings or whatever,
m the story's pretty bad. The effects

383
00:28:17.680 --> 00:28:21.000
are pretty bad. Like there's not
really a redeeming factor other than nostalgia.

384
00:28:21.160 --> 00:28:23.519
If you watch this when you were
ten years old at Christmas time, you

385
00:28:23.599 --> 00:28:29.359
probably love this film quite honestly.
But having watched it now at whatever the

386
00:28:29.359 --> 00:28:33.400
hell old, what am I forty
something? Um, it doesn't it doesn't

387
00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:36.640
land. It doesn't land with me
now. It's it's just too dated and

388
00:28:36.680 --> 00:28:41.039
it's just too slow for me.
And there's too many accents like what is

389
00:28:41.039 --> 00:28:44.799
this a blurry photos episode? Like
I don't know what's half these people are

390
00:28:44.839 --> 00:28:48.680
talking about in the same sentence,
even in the same sense. And there's

391
00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:52.799
all these different British accents like you
get Cockney, you get the other ones

392
00:28:52.960 --> 00:28:57.640
that I can't remember. Um,
I usually can that's that's a movie we

393
00:28:57.640 --> 00:29:00.680
should do. Snatch you get seen
Snatch, that's yeah, yeah, it's

394
00:29:00.720 --> 00:29:08.839
a British movie. Ranks like that. You mean dogs? Yeahs. Anyway,

395
00:29:10.039 --> 00:29:12.200
I don't know. I like any
film. I appreciate that they did

396
00:29:12.200 --> 00:29:15.200
it. It's a ton of work
to get a film done of any caliber.

397
00:29:15.759 --> 00:29:22.880
But man, it's dated. It's
a dated film. My only redeeming

398
00:29:22.920 --> 00:29:26.559
thing is there's nice little moments with
the sound effects when it's not blowing out

399
00:29:26.559 --> 00:29:32.079
your speakers from just being overgone,
like him putting on the wax cylinders and

400
00:29:32.119 --> 00:29:33.759
stuff had Like I was like,
oh man, the sound effects on that

401
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:37.160
are cool. And then my speakers
blow out a few minutes later from just

402
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:41.519
something happening, and I'm like,
never mind. That could be because it's

403
00:29:41.559 --> 00:29:45.799
on YouTube as well. I mean, this is on YouTube. You guys

404
00:29:45.839 --> 00:29:48.839
can watch it at your leisure.
By the way, for yourself, a

405
00:29:48.839 --> 00:29:53.720
favor turn on close caption, because
not even the close caption knows what's being

406
00:29:53.759 --> 00:29:59.000
said. There were several times where
the dog was referred to as Spider Man

407
00:29:59.079 --> 00:30:04.759
for some reason. I don't know
why. Also, the where where the

408
00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:07.640
dog goes and runs off and he's
goes Spider. I was like, is

409
00:30:07.680 --> 00:30:12.880
he scared to Spider? Oh right, dog's names Like. I had so

410
00:30:12.960 --> 00:30:18.359
much anxiety Once he borrowed the dog, I'm like, yeah, give the

411
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:22.079
dog back. He ran off.
Yeah, the marsh I'm like, and

412
00:30:22.119 --> 00:30:25.599
I wrote a note somewhere. I'm
like, I knew this was gonna happen.

413
00:30:25.680 --> 00:30:30.079
There did something like that like don't
let people borrow your pets. That's

414
00:30:30.119 --> 00:30:33.599
rule number three year whatever. Jeez, maybe that's a British thing. I

415
00:30:33.599 --> 00:30:38.279
don't know sure, but they were
talking about how much they love this dog

416
00:30:38.319 --> 00:30:41.119
and oh, he's the greatest.
I'll just take him. We don't need

417
00:30:41.160 --> 00:30:44.960
it, right. I'm hung up
on that for some reason. I'm not

418
00:30:44.960 --> 00:30:47.200
even a dog guy, and I'm
still hung up. But the dog was

419
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:49.119
okay, So he was okay.
I would dog was the smartest one one

420
00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:52.799
in the film. He ran and
immediately I'm an all out of here,

421
00:30:53.200 --> 00:30:56.000
ran all the way home. Yep. I actually have a question for you

422
00:30:56.000 --> 00:30:59.680
guys. Uh and I kind of
touched on it with some of my theories

423
00:30:59.680 --> 00:31:02.680
as to what's going on. But
if you were to forget the remake,

424
00:31:02.839 --> 00:31:06.519
let's say you're going to remake this
film today, what would you add to

425
00:31:06.559 --> 00:31:08.960
it to bring it into modern times. I guess the best way to put

426
00:31:10.000 --> 00:31:14.079
it what would you add or subtract
or how would you change the story to

427
00:31:14.240 --> 00:31:18.799
make it more interesting. I can't
really answer that after having watched the remake,

428
00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:22.759
because I think they did a lot
of stuff that I probably would have

429
00:31:22.799 --> 00:31:26.480
done myself, Like crank up the
creepiness factor, crank up the children creepiness

430
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:32.920
factor. Have the woman be more
of a character in it than just appearing

431
00:31:33.000 --> 00:31:37.720
like a handful of times, even
including the time where she's just screeching with

432
00:31:37.759 --> 00:31:42.440
her bug eyes. So once I
get into a little bit of the remake,

433
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:45.440
I think you might agree too,
But I'm interested in zing or what

434
00:31:45.480 --> 00:31:48.640
do you think? How would you
do it? So? Something that bugs

435
00:31:48.680 --> 00:31:52.720
me in this and other like horror
movies stuff like that, especially ghost hauntings,

436
00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:59.079
is does the main character deserve what
happens to them? I don't think

437
00:31:59.079 --> 00:32:02.640
this guy does. Is like,
he's a good family man who's just trying

438
00:32:02.640 --> 00:32:07.519
to do the right thing here.
Now his boss, if the boss were

439
00:32:07.519 --> 00:32:09.640
the one out there, yeah,
he deserves to have everything happened to him.

440
00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:13.200
But that's the That's the thing that
bugged me about this is I'm like,

441
00:32:13.400 --> 00:32:17.160
this guy did nothing to deserve the
outcome he gets, aside from just

442
00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:23.000
do his job and wanting to resolve
this situation. And there's no like warnings

443
00:32:23.039 --> 00:32:27.880
of like you know, the the
I don't know why this is sticking in

444
00:32:27.960 --> 00:32:31.039
my head for some reason. Um, sometimes that is better, like like

445
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:34.359
like something like someone. I mean, yeah, they all warn him,

446
00:32:34.400 --> 00:32:37.200
hey, don't go out there,
but there's no one that's like, just

447
00:32:37.359 --> 00:32:42.640
leave it alone, don't. I
just feel him being the focus of the

448
00:32:42.720 --> 00:32:47.400
ghost eyre is an undeserved thing.
Maybe have him be unfaithful to his wife

449
00:32:47.400 --> 00:32:53.359
and the remake, maybe have him
be the one who's mean to the employee,

450
00:32:53.400 --> 00:32:58.680
like make him an unlikable character so
the outcome is kind of like deserved

451
00:32:58.720 --> 00:33:02.680
instead of just God, did guy
did good thing? Bad thing happened to

452
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:07.039
him in the end. Don't know
why I broke in the caveman explanation,

453
00:33:07.079 --> 00:33:09.279
but there you go. That's that's
all I would do it. I would

454
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:15.759
want the character to deserve the outcome. Challow ground up. Then your pet.

455
00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:22.680
That's a movie we should do,
guys pet cemetery. Um, yeah,

456
00:33:22.680 --> 00:33:29.680
there is, there is. I
don't disagree with you, justin but

457
00:33:29.759 --> 00:33:35.319
at the same time, like maybe
his quote unquote sin was choosing workover family

458
00:33:36.400 --> 00:33:39.640
because he comes home and well,
let's let's back up. The bosses like,

459
00:33:39.640 --> 00:33:43.000
you gotta go do this thing at
this mansion on the other side of

460
00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:45.039
England wherever it is. Uh,
you have to write a train to get

461
00:33:45.039 --> 00:33:47.119
there. It's far away. And
he's like, you don't have a choice.

462
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:50.400
If you want to move up in
this firm, you have to do

463
00:33:50.440 --> 00:33:52.240
this. And he's like, but
I got a wife, I got a

464
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:53.559
kid, blah blah blah. And
then he goes home. We find out

465
00:33:53.559 --> 00:33:57.839
he is a nanny for Starters,
So what's he even doing. There was

466
00:33:57.880 --> 00:34:01.240
some weird stuff with a nanny,
but his boss blames him for having kids.

467
00:34:01.240 --> 00:34:05.119
By the way, did you catch
that. Yeah, he was like,

468
00:34:05.160 --> 00:34:07.960
if you if you wanted a career, you shouldn't have had a family

469
00:34:07.320 --> 00:34:10.840
or something like that basically, And
then he goes home tells his wife,

470
00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:14.039
I got to go out of town
for a week, like, good luck

471
00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:16.280
with you, and the nanny like
she'll be fine. But and they still

472
00:34:16.280 --> 00:34:19.960
get a babysitter anyway, even though
they have a nanny. I don't understand

473
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:24.119
the whole nanny things. It's a
British thing, Mary Poppins. The more

474
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:27.719
I'm talking about it, the more
questions popping in my head because he comes

475
00:34:27.760 --> 00:34:30.559
home at this scene and then the
little kids like the nanny pushed me,

476
00:34:30.559 --> 00:34:32.920
and then Nanny's like, no,
I didn't, and then the parents looked

477
00:34:32.920 --> 00:34:37.159
concerned at each other and then never
came up again, like is this an

478
00:34:37.159 --> 00:34:40.800
abuse of nanny? Like what's happening
in this scene? But anyway, the

479
00:34:40.840 --> 00:34:45.960
whole point of what I'm getting at
is the boss knew about this haunting and

480
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:49.960
he sent him there so that the
boss didn't have to go. So he

481
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:53.079
was kind of that unwilling victim.
And then the choice that he made was

482
00:34:53.199 --> 00:34:58.960
he chose his career well further in
his career in this instance, at least

483
00:34:59.000 --> 00:35:02.320
over his family. And that would
be the quote unquote sin that I would

484
00:35:02.320 --> 00:35:06.400
compare it to. But it's it's
a British horror film, so I feel

485
00:35:06.400 --> 00:35:10.599
like everything's like watered down a little
bit. Not no dig on the British

486
00:35:10.639 --> 00:35:15.760
whatsoever, but it's it's especially an
eighty nine major TV British movie. It's

487
00:35:15.760 --> 00:35:21.360
pretty dry. Let me tell you
what they did with the remake. It's

488
00:35:21.400 --> 00:35:27.559
almost a completely different story. Basically, it's the premise of a solicitor having

489
00:35:27.599 --> 00:35:34.400
to go to eel Marsh House to
administer the final will of this widow.

490
00:35:35.199 --> 00:35:39.480
That's the same. Everything else is
basically different. The woman in black in

491
00:35:39.599 --> 00:35:45.039
that is much more hands on.
She is like out to get kids.

492
00:35:45.800 --> 00:35:52.159
There are tons of kids that have
died one of them. Harry Potter plays

493
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:55.920
the solicitor in it. In this
one, he is a single parent.

494
00:35:57.039 --> 00:36:00.800
His wife has died in childbirth,
so he's Scott the kid alone and has

495
00:36:00.840 --> 00:36:05.199
a nanny to hell Sow every horror
movie starts, so we're off to a

496
00:36:05.239 --> 00:36:12.000
good start. Yeah. Yeah.
He is not as jovial and stuff as

497
00:36:12.039 --> 00:36:15.320
a lawyer as the Southern one.
In fact, the lawyer and this was

498
00:36:15.400 --> 00:36:21.800
like you need to get your act
together. You're like failing, so go

499
00:36:21.880 --> 00:36:24.519
do this or you're fired. And
he's like, okay, I'll do this.

500
00:36:24.559 --> 00:36:29.840
And he gets there and basically the
town from the get go is like

501
00:36:30.000 --> 00:36:34.760
get out. We don't want you
here, especially knowing that you're going to

502
00:36:34.840 --> 00:36:39.199
go to this place where this woman's
been taken our kids. And at one

503
00:36:39.239 --> 00:36:45.679
point he's like at the police station
and a few kids come in. One

504
00:36:45.719 --> 00:36:50.679
of them is like sickly, and
then she just vomits blood and dies in

505
00:36:50.760 --> 00:36:57.840
his arms because she has she has
ingested lie. There's another part where there's

506
00:36:58.000 --> 00:37:00.079
a fire. He comes into town, into town, there's a fire in

507
00:37:00.119 --> 00:37:04.159
a house. He goes there's a
kid in it still, so he busts

508
00:37:04.159 --> 00:37:07.440
in. He's like, I'm going
to show everybody that I'm not here to

509
00:37:07.559 --> 00:37:09.559
mess with them, I'm here to
help. He goes into it and the

510
00:37:09.639 --> 00:37:14.880
kids standing there with an oil lamp
in her hand, surrounded by flames.

511
00:37:15.199 --> 00:37:17.320
The woman in black is standing beside
her, looking at her, and she

512
00:37:17.440 --> 00:37:22.880
just busts this oil lamp at her
feet and goes up in flames. The

513
00:37:22.039 --> 00:37:28.880
kids are basically drawn to death.
When this woman is around, she like

514
00:37:29.039 --> 00:37:31.519
causes them to do things they wouldn't
do. It sounds like a much better,

515
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:36.719
much better movie. I liked it
a lot better. Um, it

516
00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:38.559
wasn't you know. It wasn't perfect
by any means. There's a lot of

517
00:37:38.639 --> 00:37:44.440
jump scares that are kind of corny, but it's much much more of a

518
00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:49.159
horror film along the lines of what's
happening these days, what's being made,

519
00:37:49.239 --> 00:37:52.079
you know, what we're more used
to. I think Harry Potter does a

520
00:37:52.079 --> 00:37:54.000
great job in it. Oh wait, wait wait, since there's a lot

521
00:37:54.039 --> 00:37:59.559
more kids in this one, there's
a standard we have here. Does one

522
00:37:59.599 --> 00:38:05.239
of them it punted out the door
or any like? Because because we established

523
00:38:05.320 --> 00:38:07.559
from what was it? La Larna? Yeah? Yeah, don't give them

524
00:38:07.599 --> 00:38:13.239
get get just yet. I don't
think there's a single yeat in this one

525
00:38:14.920 --> 00:38:17.920
of all time. The kid does
yeat blood from her mouth at one point,

526
00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:22.400
and then one of them yeats an
oil lamp at her feet so that

527
00:38:22.639 --> 00:38:27.800
she goes up. So but no, no kid, no kid themselves gets

528
00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:31.199
heated, I don't think. But
they do separate them at some point though,

529
00:38:31.239 --> 00:38:35.679
don't They put them in different groups
and like a like a hat decides

530
00:38:35.679 --> 00:38:44.239
which group they go into. Did
not happen? Wrong movie? Oh sorry,

531
00:38:44.760 --> 00:38:49.480
wrong, Daniel Radcliff movie that decides
I had to throw it Harry Potter

532
00:38:49.559 --> 00:38:53.320
joke in there somehow. Actually I
got okay, that can wait? That

533
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:59.559
can wait. So one one big
difference in this is that Daniel Radcliffe's character

534
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:04.000
is like, I'm going to help
this ghost. I'm going to do something

535
00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:09.400
to get her to stop. He
literally goes out at night and U goes

536
00:39:09.880 --> 00:39:16.119
marsh diving. He dives into this
swamp and it's like it's basically tar.

537
00:39:16.840 --> 00:39:22.320
It's like all this gross mud.
He gets Julius Caesar to to get in

538
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:27.639
a car and pull out this carriage
from this marsh and he gets the body

539
00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:31.519
of the dead kid that is this
woman's son, and he like takes it

540
00:39:31.599 --> 00:39:35.719
home, cleans it up, wraps
it up, puts it in the nursery.

541
00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:37.760
Where where it it? You know
it used to live? Can I

542
00:39:37.800 --> 00:39:43.039
ask what state of decompositions bodies?
And at this point it was pretty good.

543
00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:46.519
It was still pretty good, Like
you still see facial features and I

544
00:39:46.599 --> 00:39:51.280
you know that happens with bogs,
Like bodies that get put in bogs kind

545
00:39:51.320 --> 00:39:57.519
of get preserved. I mean it
was it wasn't too quite to that stage.

546
00:39:57.599 --> 00:40:04.119
It was decomposing, but it was
still a kid. You could still

547
00:40:04.199 --> 00:40:07.239
he composed. Was this body we're
talking about. So he basically invites the

548
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:12.760
woman in black to collect her kid
or to be like, we're gonna bury

549
00:40:12.800 --> 00:40:15.159
the kid. Everything should be fine. And the woman in black shows up,

550
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:20.079
screams at him, and then disappears, and then he's like, Okay,

551
00:40:20.159 --> 00:40:23.960
that's it, We're done. I
solved it and so he goes back

552
00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:30.039
to the train station. Now here's
the parts that's completely wild. The maid

553
00:40:30.639 --> 00:40:37.760
and his son show up there in
this town at the train station to take

554
00:40:37.840 --> 00:40:44.760
him home. Why so he's talking
to Julius Caesar. The kid wanders off,

555
00:40:44.840 --> 00:40:49.239
gets on the railroad tracks. Train
comes, Harry Potter jumps down,

556
00:40:49.360 --> 00:40:53.320
grabs the kid. Daniel Redcliffe sees
the woman in black watching him as he

557
00:40:53.400 --> 00:40:57.639
jumps down to get the kid.
And then the next scene, the kid's

558
00:40:57.679 --> 00:41:00.840
like that day, who is that
woman there? And he's like, oh,

559
00:41:00.920 --> 00:41:05.960
that's mummy and he goes up to
the to this woman. They hold

560
00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:10.599
hands and walk off down the tracks. So obviously they die, but they

561
00:41:10.639 --> 00:41:15.079
are reunited in death. He hooks
up with the woman in black. No,

562
00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:19.519
no, no, this was his
wife. Yeah, the woman in

563
00:41:19.559 --> 00:41:23.920
black is there before he gets hit
by the train. And then it ends

564
00:41:23.960 --> 00:41:30.119
with the woman in black staring at
the camera as she watches them. I'm

565
00:41:30.119 --> 00:41:34.599
sorry, I've got the summary here. Apparently she watches the happy family reunited.

566
00:41:35.039 --> 00:41:37.119
She doesn't then she and then she
looks at the camera. Breaks the

567
00:41:37.119 --> 00:41:40.599
fourth wall. So Harry Potter and
the kid die and getting hit by the

568
00:41:40.639 --> 00:41:45.960
train, Yes, but they are
reunited with the so it's kind of a

569
00:41:46.039 --> 00:41:52.079
maccab happy ending. He dies a
lot in his movies. It's better than

570
00:41:53.159 --> 00:41:57.840
the eighty nine version. I think
there was a lot more to it.

571
00:41:57.840 --> 00:42:01.440
It's not perfect, but they did, I think what that original movie did

572
00:42:01.440 --> 00:42:06.480
not have, which was crank up
the creepy factor, make the Woman in

573
00:42:06.480 --> 00:42:09.639
Black much more of a character in
it, much more hands on, and

574
00:42:09.679 --> 00:42:13.880
there were a lot more like you
know, he goes into the kid's room

575
00:42:13.880 --> 00:42:16.440
and the rocking chairs rocking on its
own, and then it just stops.

576
00:42:16.920 --> 00:42:22.079
There's a lot of like dolls in
the new one that they thought the jobst

577
00:42:22.119 --> 00:42:27.719
creepiest faces. So you know,
there's a lot of little details that are

578
00:42:27.760 --> 00:42:31.199
in our zeitgeist in the horror genre
now that are added in and I think

579
00:42:31.480 --> 00:42:36.280
do make it better. It sounds
like they up the atmosphere, which wasn't

580
00:42:36.320 --> 00:42:39.079
really a neat thing because if you
think about it, Beetlejuice was a year

581
00:42:39.119 --> 00:42:45.440
older than than True Woman in Black
and that thing's full of atmosphere. It's

582
00:42:45.599 --> 00:42:47.440
kind of tim Burton esque, but
it's still atmosphere like it's it was a

583
00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:52.599
concept back then. It's it's a
strange decision not to include it. I

584
00:42:52.599 --> 00:42:55.239
mean, and maybe they tried,
but it seemed like they just used the

585
00:42:55.280 --> 00:42:59.920
location as is, Like it wasn't
It wasn't like they really tried to splice

586
00:42:59.880 --> 00:43:00.960
it up any I mean, sure
they filled it with fog, but that

587
00:43:01.039 --> 00:43:04.920
was also part of the storyline,
like they needed a fog in there.

588
00:43:04.960 --> 00:43:08.800
So nitpicking. But yeah, so
anyways, so that's uh, that's the

589
00:43:08.840 --> 00:43:12.920
woman in black. I keep on
the lady in black. It is not

590
00:43:13.199 --> 00:43:16.039
it is the woman in black.
She was not a lady, definitely not

591
00:43:16.159 --> 00:43:20.000
a lady. I don't know if
this was your fun fact zinger or not,

592
00:43:20.239 --> 00:43:23.480
but a little bit of irony.
The dude that played the lawyer in

593
00:43:23.519 --> 00:43:30.159
the first one was James Potter in
the Harry Potter films, Harry Potter's Dad.

594
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:34.800
Yeah, life imitates art comes full
circle, the world turns again.

595
00:43:34.920 --> 00:43:37.360
Yes, that that that that was
pretty interesting thought. Harry Potter's dad was

596
00:43:37.440 --> 00:43:39.920
dead. That was not the point. He was an orphan. No,

597
00:43:39.920 --> 00:43:43.679
no, no, but but of
course he plays his dad when he's able

598
00:43:43.719 --> 00:43:46.679
to see his dad. Of course
magic. Oh the dad shows up.

599
00:43:46.920 --> 00:43:50.880
Yeah, he's I've only seen the
first Harry Potter and there was no dad

600
00:43:50.880 --> 00:43:58.039
in that one. I don't think
it was. I don't remember. Okay,

601
00:43:58.159 --> 00:44:06.039
that's I believe you. That's no, it's Philosopher's Stone. And then

602
00:44:06.360 --> 00:44:08.960
Philosopher's Stone in England, Sorcerer's Stone
in America. There we go. Yeah,

603
00:44:09.360 --> 00:44:15.719
Harry Potter came to America. Yeah, God, this is it?

604
00:44:15.800 --> 00:44:21.519
Happened after the it's the it's the
Testament of Harry Potter in America. Come

605
00:44:21.559 --> 00:44:24.480
on, I showed him in Missouri, Harry Potter and Latter Day Saints.

606
00:44:25.320 --> 00:44:31.119
That's right, Harry in the Church
of Latter Day Saints. Oh man,

607
00:44:31.239 --> 00:44:35.280
this is gonna be a new Testament
to Harry Potter. It's a brand new

608
00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:39.840
empathy. Um. I actually this
fun another fun fact. This is actually

609
00:44:39.880 --> 00:44:45.679
based on a book. So interesting. Oh wait we said that earlier.

610
00:44:45.360 --> 00:44:52.000
Yeah, a novel apparently a whole
last novel. Um. In the book,

611
00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:55.880
however, they are killed when when
with a horse and buggy collision,

612
00:44:57.440 --> 00:45:00.519
which I guess was just too much
to annim I mean to put into film,

613
00:45:00.559 --> 00:45:05.639
because instead they just had a tree
fall on them, tree branch all

614
00:45:05.719 --> 00:45:09.000
on them in sync about I would
have loved to have seen this epic horse

615
00:45:09.079 --> 00:45:19.960
collision just just just exactly there's these
two horse characters just slamming into each other

616
00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:23.800
for thirty seconds of screaming. You
know, it's funny, and this has

617
00:45:23.880 --> 00:45:28.800
nothing to do with anything other than
what you just said. Justin but where

618
00:45:29.239 --> 00:45:34.480
where I grew up in Ohio the
very first They call it an automobile accident,

619
00:45:35.159 --> 00:45:37.920
but they don't mean they don't mean
cars, They mean like horse and

620
00:45:37.960 --> 00:45:40.719
buggy. A guy got drunk and
was riding his buggy home and flipped it

621
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:44.840
and it rolled over and popped his
head off. And it was the first

622
00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:49.639
ever fatality in a automobile or in
a I can't remember, a vehicle or

623
00:45:49.679 --> 00:45:51.360
whatever. I don't know how they
word it. But there's like a little

624
00:45:51.400 --> 00:45:53.840
plaque in this little village near where
I grew up, and every time I

625
00:45:53.880 --> 00:45:57.559
go by there, I'm like,
that's like the very first death in Ohio

626
00:45:57.719 --> 00:46:00.719
based on automo, not automo.
I keep saying automobile, but it was

627
00:46:00.760 --> 00:46:05.079
a horse and buggy that killed him, So whatever word they used, vehicle,

628
00:46:05.119 --> 00:46:07.639
I suppose. But that's that's my
twod bit. I have nothing to

629
00:46:07.679 --> 00:46:13.599
offer on the film, so I
just final thoughts are, Hey, guess

630
00:46:13.599 --> 00:46:15.840
what happened at Ohio this week?
This is what happened in my hometown two

631
00:46:15.960 --> 00:46:20.920
hundred years ago? Or what are
your final thoughts for this one? The

632
00:46:21.000 --> 00:46:24.400
fact this movie both has a sequel
in book form and in movie form disappoint

633
00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:29.519
me to no end, and the
fact they exist. I don't have any

634
00:46:29.559 --> 00:46:35.199
interest in seeing them overall. I
like I said, I don't think our

635
00:46:35.559 --> 00:46:40.440
main character deserves the terrible torment and
death the god. I did like him

636
00:46:40.480 --> 00:46:46.079
choking out his boss randomly and burning
half of his firm down because he lost

637
00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:52.239
it. I also like how the
fireman starts yelling at him for burning the

638
00:46:52.280 --> 00:46:57.159
place down too. It was a
different time where fireman could walk into places

639
00:46:57.159 --> 00:46:59.800
and start yelling at people for why
did you do this? And I was

640
00:46:59.800 --> 00:47:04.280
like a great fireman said what I
wanted to say. Though the guy's thrown

641
00:47:04.679 --> 00:47:07.559
Let let me fill everybody in really
quick. He's going through this trunk that

642
00:47:07.760 --> 00:47:10.320
arrived from the woman in Black's house, and he's like freaking out with every

643
00:47:10.360 --> 00:47:13.679
item he pulls out. He's looking
for something, I think, but I

644
00:47:14.079 --> 00:47:16.679
didn't catch it in the plot.
So he's thrown papers and papers and throwing

645
00:47:16.760 --> 00:47:20.760
them toward the fireplace, not in
it, toward it, and then they're

646
00:47:20.800 --> 00:47:23.440
all like hanging out onto the carpet
and onto the floor, and he's like,

647
00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:27.480
that's good enough, and he douses
it with some flammable liquid. I

648
00:47:27.480 --> 00:47:31.199
can't remember what I was seeing,
they say in there. No, No,

649
00:47:31.440 --> 00:47:35.519
it was I can't remember, they
say in the film. And it's

650
00:47:35.559 --> 00:47:42.360
something that's not normally used. Petroleum. Yes, it was petrol, I

651
00:47:42.559 --> 00:47:45.880
believe. So anyway, so he's
like, covers all these financial documents with

652
00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:50.320
this flammable liquid and just lights it
up and the carpets on fire, and

653
00:47:50.360 --> 00:47:52.920
like he's just standing in there looking
at it, and he's putting it in

654
00:47:52.960 --> 00:47:54.119
the fireplace. Yeah, and then
he's like, oh, the trunk.

655
00:47:54.320 --> 00:47:58.679
So he douses that thing and flammable
liquid and throws it on the ground like

656
00:47:58.719 --> 00:48:00.840
he doesn't even bother and the whole
thing burns down. And the whole time

657
00:48:00.880 --> 00:48:04.599
I'm yelling at him, what are
you doing? You're gonna cut your whole

658
00:48:04.599 --> 00:48:07.960
office on fire. And I guess
that was the point he lost his marbles.

659
00:48:07.000 --> 00:48:10.880
Now that it is a fun question
was he crazy the whole time?

660
00:48:10.920 --> 00:48:16.880
Because I pointed out that that the
eel manner whatever burned down too, And

661
00:48:16.960 --> 00:48:23.679
did he destroy all the stuff in
the kid's room as he was trying to

662
00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:27.920
the fireplace. Yeah, he doesn't
know how to use a fireplace. This

663
00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:30.679
is the problem. He doesn't know
how to use a fireplace. He's just

664
00:48:30.719 --> 00:48:36.840
like fire make O. That's very
cave man ask of you today, justin

665
00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:45.199
that's like place fire, sleeveless burn. Is it my turn for my opinion?

666
00:48:45.280 --> 00:48:47.559
Yeah? Did you get your final
thoughts out? This is what happens

667
00:48:47.599 --> 00:48:52.119
when the films are or I'll say
the word boring for lack of a better

668
00:48:52.239 --> 00:48:54.880
term. But it makes it hard
to do these shows. Like it's hard

669
00:48:54.920 --> 00:48:58.760
to talk about these sometimes because it's
like what do you talk about? Like,

670
00:48:58.800 --> 00:49:00.719
I don't want to harp on all
the bad things this thing did because

671
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:07.199
it is thirty something, you're thirty
three years old or whatever. Oh yeah,

672
00:49:07.199 --> 00:49:09.519
it makes your shiver just to say
that. But you know, you

673
00:49:09.519 --> 00:49:12.639
don't want to rag on the whole
thing the whole time. But at the

674
00:49:12.679 --> 00:49:15.559
same time, like, there really
wasn't a lot redeeming about it. Like

675
00:49:15.559 --> 00:49:19.880
I said earlier, it could have
been boiled down to a ten fifteen minute

676
00:49:19.920 --> 00:49:23.079
short, and I think that would
have been boring. Honestly, I see

677
00:49:23.079 --> 00:49:27.199
why they did a remake of it. It has meat on the bone where

678
00:49:27.199 --> 00:49:30.519
you can add to this story,
and it has that nostalgia to it,

679
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:34.239
so I understand why they would take
that gamble. I'm anxious to see the

680
00:49:34.320 --> 00:49:37.000
new version of it, even though
David just gave the entire plot away for

681
00:49:37.119 --> 00:49:45.199
us. I might spoiler alert by
the way, guys I've ever done talking

682
00:49:45.199 --> 00:49:47.880
about it. I don't know.
If you have a boring night and you

683
00:49:47.960 --> 00:49:52.920
have your phone out and you're drinking
some beer or something, maybe put it

684
00:49:52.920 --> 00:49:55.039
on in the background just to see
what we're talking about. But certainly don't

685
00:49:55.119 --> 00:50:00.320
run and watch this film. I
couldn't agree. This is such a low

686
00:50:00.480 --> 00:50:07.800
burn you. You really have to
be committed to watching British made for television

687
00:50:07.920 --> 00:50:12.519
films of the eighties to make it
through this thing. It's so slow,

688
00:50:13.119 --> 00:50:15.639
and I do think that the newer
version does a much better job of cutting

689
00:50:15.639 --> 00:50:21.880
to the chase and getting to the
stuff that's juicier and just more interesting all

690
00:50:21.920 --> 00:50:25.239
around. I don't I guess that
the story ends better in the new one

691
00:50:25.280 --> 00:50:30.519
than the It's kind of weird because
in the in the old version, the

692
00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:36.440
woman follows them to London. She's
not stuck in this little Seaside Town,

693
00:50:37.280 --> 00:50:42.000
which is kind of a weird ghost
rule breaking, I think, But it

694
00:50:42.159 --> 00:50:46.440
is very hard to watch if you're
not actively trying to be like, oh,

695
00:50:46.599 --> 00:50:50.159
let's let's just see what this is. And you know, I'm going

696
00:50:50.199 --> 00:50:52.960
to make a point to watch this
whole thing, So take that as you

697
00:50:53.000 --> 00:51:00.519
will. I guess that's not a
great endorsement of this thing, but at

698
00:51:00.519 --> 00:51:04.760
the time, I think it's what
interests me the most about it is that

699
00:51:04.880 --> 00:51:10.840
it was so well received and went
straight to legend basically when it when it

700
00:51:10.920 --> 00:51:15.119
aired, and then because it wasn't
re aired until like five years later,

701
00:51:15.880 --> 00:51:20.679
it it added to the legend.
And I think that's why it occupies such

702
00:51:20.719 --> 00:51:25.159
a place in people's hearts, and
the nostalgia really rings true for them.

703
00:51:25.199 --> 00:51:29.960
So, um, if you're gonna
watch it, watch both compare them,

704
00:51:30.000 --> 00:51:32.320
you know, if you got the
time, uh, and if not,

705
00:51:34.000 --> 00:51:37.920
you could you could take a pass
if you want. That's my thought that

706
00:51:38.039 --> 00:51:42.039
one scene you can find, the
one scene if you just type in the

707
00:51:42.079 --> 00:51:45.239
woman in black, that scene,
you know, the one I'm talking about,

708
00:51:45.320 --> 00:51:49.599
that probably would get through. Pull
it up for you and turn your

709
00:51:49.599 --> 00:51:57.159
speakers down to about I mean this, they make the sound that Jim Carey

710
00:51:57.159 --> 00:52:04.000
makes in Dumb and Dummer. That's
exactly the sound. It's exactly the sound.

711
00:52:04.119 --> 00:52:07.199
I guess the New One was successful. They say it grossed two hundred

712
00:52:07.199 --> 00:52:13.920
and thirty worldwide, so that's probably
what a forty fifty million dollar movie something

713
00:52:13.960 --> 00:52:15.480
like that, I would guess.
I would guess it might be a little

714
00:52:15.480 --> 00:52:19.480
bit good. Yeah, I think
it's very well made, the New One.

715
00:52:19.679 --> 00:52:23.639
I don't know if it's necessarily great, but fifteen to seventeen million box

716
00:52:23.719 --> 00:52:31.559
office one hundred and sev that's good. That's a good return. In reality,

717
00:52:31.599 --> 00:52:36.280
it's probably ten ten million more than
that, so it's still a really

718
00:52:36.320 --> 00:52:39.360
good return. But they always fudge
those numbers a little bit. So that's

719
00:52:39.599 --> 00:52:44.480
that's the woman Black. Thanks for
listening to this round table. Let's go

720
