Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't listen when I'm not on, but oh
Speaker 2: we know. But it turned out to be an excellent
Speaker 2: birthday weekend because mister John Daily took me to Charlotte,
Speaker 2: North Carolina to see the great Fabio Fritzy perform the
Speaker 2: score of Zombie by Luccio Faulci live. Yes, sir, and
Speaker 2: it was great. We got to meet Fabio. He was
Speaker 2: incredibly generous and very amused that I had a copy
Speaker 2: of his autobiography, which I very foolishly did not bring
Speaker 2: for him to sign, but he did sign a poster
Speaker 2: for me. John had never seen Zombie before, so it
Speaker 2: was an excellent introduction for the film. I think I
Speaker 2: forgot that part. Yeah, yeah. And then that was Saturday night,
Speaker 2: and then Sunday night we went to see Gang of
Speaker 2: Four perform some rock and roll songs.
Speaker 1: So always an nice week. I know you're super tight
Speaker 1: into the music scene. Actually I went to a show
Speaker 1: this week too, which I don't get to do a lot.
Speaker 1: That's pretty nice.
Speaker 2: Did you see a DC Talk reunion or they broke
Speaker 2: up once? No. I went to see Foxy Shazam actually, oh, sweet.
Speaker 1: Love fox They played with that the number twelve looks
Speaker 1: like you and I was amused to find out that
Speaker 1: there's still a band after like twenty six years.
Speaker 2: Not familiar.
Speaker 1: It's one of those two thousand's emo scream o bands
Speaker 1: for sure.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Other than that, it's been a busy time for both
Speaker 1: of us.
Speaker 2: Yeah, lots.
Speaker 1: We've got a brand new issue of The Physical Media
Speaker 1: Advocate releasing hopefully tonight or tomorrow morning, So look out
Speaker 1: for that. That one is Ian. It's got a really
Speaker 1: incredible cover. I can't wait for you guys to see it.
Speaker 1: We got a different cover artist this time, mister Ron
Speaker 1: Winnick did a beautiful piece on an iconic movie that
Speaker 1: I don't even want to give away because when you
Speaker 1: see it, man, Idiot is great. Other than that, lots
Speaker 1: of editing, lots going on. Uh what about some recent watches?
Speaker 1: Anything you want to highlight?
Speaker 2: Oh I got I got two more announcements before we
Speaker 2: get to the shoot. Go yeah, go right ahead. We
Speaker 2: take our time. The first of the month.
Speaker 1: First of the month. I forgot it felt like the
Speaker 1: second of the month.
Speaker 2: Sorry, it's the first of the month. Check. Come on.
Speaker 2: I'm really proud to say that the documentary Mad, which
Speaker 2: my sister edited, was nominated for two Emmys, Best Director
Speaker 2: and Outstanding Arts and Culture Documentary, So wish them the
Speaker 2: best of lot. Not sure why there wasn't an editing nomination,
Speaker 2: but it'll come. No really happy about that, and uh,
Speaker 2: as I said before, even if she hadn't worked on it,
Speaker 2: I was pretty impressed with that documentary side. If you
Speaker 2: have access to Disney Plus, check it out. It's worth it.
Speaker 2: And then the other thing, which I'll plug at the
Speaker 2: beginning of the show and at the end, is if
Speaker 2: any listeners are in the Carolina North Carolina region, which,
Speaker 2: by the way, today was named forty third lowest pay
Speaker 2: for teachers in the nation. That doesn't have anything to
Speaker 2: do with what I'm about to say. It was just
Speaker 2: a little tidbit pretty third. If you're around and free
Speaker 2: on Memorial Day weekend, you should consider coming to Carolina Fearfest,
Speaker 2: where mister John Daley and I are going to be
Speaker 2: wrapping a table for several films and for terror vision
Speaker 2: records and video, where there's a super boutique team up
Speaker 2: both tables represented. If that's not enough reason for you
Speaker 2: to come out, Malcolm McDowell was going to be there.
Speaker 2: Samantha mathis Bill Moseley, Tiffany Sippis, and this great recording
Speaker 2: artist that I used to listen to in the early
Speaker 2: two thousands named Tracy Lords. She does dance me. You've
Speaker 2: heard of her.
Speaker 1: I was wondering how that was going to work out because.
Speaker 2: She didn't album called a Thousand Fires. What you know, Reactor,
Speaker 2: It's great.
Speaker 1: What we were first talking about, you do at the
Speaker 1: table and I let you know that Tracy Lawrence is
Speaker 1: going to be there. I thought for about a whole week,
Speaker 1: I was never going to hear about anything else.
Speaker 2: Oh you know, have you ever seen Excision?
Speaker 1: Excision?
Speaker 2: I want to say twenty twelve? She is so good
Speaker 2: that movie. I mean that if it's incredible. Excision is
Speaker 2: a really good movie. And Tracy Lords, like if you
Speaker 2: if you've ever, if you've only ever you know seen
Speaker 2: her and you know schlocky stuff, check out Excision because
Speaker 2: her performance was fantastic, like absolutely devastating. Excision is a
Speaker 2: movie that parents will have trouble watching. It's a tough one. Man.
Speaker 2: So a big fan of of Miss Lords. Trying to
Speaker 2: decide what I want to get signed her memoir, her album,
Speaker 2: my copy of Excision, all right, my my forehead so
Speaker 2: that I could tattoo the signature.
Speaker 1: Yes, go see Will and John in person. Uh and
Speaker 1: on top of that, pick up some wares from Severn
Speaker 1: and terr Vision. I'm sure they can work out some
Speaker 1: sort of deal with you. It's gonna be lots of
Speaker 1: incredible stuff available. Go check that out, Tiffany. That's gonna
Speaker 1: be there, Daniel Roebuck. Nancy Loomis. I just had a
Speaker 1: long talk about Malcolm McDowell with another boutique owner today.
Speaker 2: It's pretty funny. I'm glad he's.
Speaker 1: Gonna be there. That's a big name, and he's kind
Speaker 1: of having a moment. I mean, zero grad and uh,
Speaker 1: you know, obviously there's uh, you know, some drama around
Speaker 1: the release. But Caligula was a big thing recently, and
Speaker 1: then Evil Anko from Unearthed just came out fairly recently.
Speaker 2: Lots of McDowell stuff. Yeah, yeah, he's recently opened a
Speaker 2: gardening company on the side called mctrowell.
Speaker 1: That was a very me joke and I appreciate all right,
Speaker 1: I love this jocus. Sibner says, well, doctor Loomis be there.
Speaker 1: Funny enough, Nancy Loomis will be there, will be there.
Speaker 1: I was at Nancy Lewis's First Common twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean about you.
Speaker 1: You've been watching a lot of stuff that we've been
Speaker 1: working on.
Speaker 2: What else you've been watching? Am I allowed to talk?
Speaker 2: I can't talk about any of that yet.
Speaker 1: I mean you can talk about Devil's Sword a little bit.
Speaker 2: I hyped that up. Two devil possessives we can talk about, right.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah. So just finished up Like Today booklet
Speaker 2: essay for Terror Vision's release of The Devil's Sword, the
Speaker 2: Great Indonesian exploitation film, Martial Arts fantasy Crocodile hunting film,
Speaker 2: very enjoyable, and we did a visual essay for Deaf
Speaker 2: Crocodile's upcoming release of the first Lithuanian rock opera, The
Speaker 2: Devil's Bride. So two of the Devil's items are available
Speaker 2: for purchase. Let's see and the Sword watches. Okay, so
Speaker 2: only one of these is the first time to watch.
Speaker 2: But my most recent watches were for wrapping up my
Speaker 2: cult film's class. We watched Society. Brian used them appropriately.
Speaker 2: Today is International Worker's Day. Eat the rich or They'll
Speaker 2: eat you. We also checked out Franken Hooker and I
Speaker 2: have to say I've said this on the show before,
Speaker 2: but probably the thing that makes me happiest in the
Speaker 2: world is knowing that almost two decades worth of students
Speaker 2: at the University of North Carolina Greensboro, if they take media,
Speaker 2: if they major media studies, are likely going to have
Speaker 2: to watch this movie in order to graduate. And nothing
Speaker 2: gives me more pleasure than the reaction to all of
Speaker 2: the hookers blowing up scene. And we had a great conversation,
Speaker 2: like they totally got it. We had fantastic talk afterwards about,
Speaker 2: you know, the commodification of women's bodies and the sort
Speaker 2: of cultural dissection of body parts and so on. That
Speaker 2: was really good. And keep them with a theme Jennifer's Body,
Speaker 2: Where's My four K? We watched The Director's Cup, which
Speaker 2: has that great funeral scene. Loved this movie. Students loved
Speaker 2: it as well. A lot of people it was their
Speaker 2: first time and they were really surprised. And finally, just
Speaker 2: to show that I've got culture, watched Dario Argento's staging
Speaker 2: of Giuseppe Vanity's opera Macbeth in conjunction.
Speaker 1: With a Blu Ray release.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's got a nice little interview where he talks
Speaker 2: about some quotations he makes from Deep Red and from
Speaker 2: the film opera within the staging of this. It's quite good. Actually,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm not an opera buff, but you know
Speaker 2: it's two and a half hours long and I was
Speaker 2: riveted the entire time. Lastly watched one of my favorite films,
Speaker 2: also in class, and this is something I also really
Speaker 2: like introducing to people. Kathleen Collins Losing Ground nice which
Speaker 2: only gets better with age, Bill Gunn, Dwayne Jones, Sarah
Speaker 2: Scott just it's incredible, great, great movie.
Speaker 1: Soonners wanting to know about that opera release.
Speaker 2: It's region A, sorry region, oh all regions?
Speaker 1: Where was it released?
Speaker 2: What do you mean where is it released? I'm blue
Speaker 2: ra I got it off Amazon chairman. Okay, well the
Speaker 2: disc itself.
Speaker 1: Like, did it come from a boutique in Italy or
Speaker 1: something like that?
Speaker 2: No, I think it's I think this was produced the
Speaker 2: company says Dynamic. It's an Italian company called Dynamic. But
Speaker 2: the Blu ray was made I think by the theater
Speaker 2: that put on the the tiatrokotchia nice. Tatro is Italian
Speaker 2: for theater and cochia is Italian for I caught you coffee.
Speaker 2: I think, isn't that cafe? I don't know.
Speaker 1: This week I watched a couple of shorts. I've been
Speaker 1: watching a lot more shorts lately. UH watched the new
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five movie Nobukine with my family the and
Speaker 1: Ray Nicholson Neppo Baby Duel to the Death film. Uh good,
Speaker 1: good movie. I was surprised. I thought it was actually
Speaker 1: pretty well handled, pretty damn funny. Jack Wade is a
Speaker 1: charismatic son of a bitch, and Ray Nicholson I think
Speaker 1: has actually got a pretty well disagrees, uh, pretty pretty
Speaker 1: solid future. He's he's pretty good at what he does.
Speaker 1: But the other big thing definitely want to talk about
Speaker 1: is uh the Patreon watch a lot was this last weekend?
Speaker 1: And Uh On Sunday we watched uh crazy movie Jeffrey
Speaker 1: Wright's Romper Stomper from nineteen ninety two.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 1: My first watch ever.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, wait, let me do it, Let me let
Speaker 2: me do it. What are you doing here? Yeah? These
Speaker 2: is not y'all contra.
Speaker 1: It was a damn good movie.
Speaker 2: I'd say they show that in the White House.
Speaker 1: They probably should. I never mind, I was gonna make
Speaker 1: a worse I.
Speaker 2: No, no, I interrupted you and I want you to
Speaker 2: start over, because Roper Stumper it's a great movie. I
Speaker 2: don't want to hear you talk about it.
Speaker 1: It's an incredible movie, just remarkably acted. I am, uh,
Speaker 1: you know, just absolutely thrown by the amount of pure
Speaker 1: violence they showed in that movie. It was it did
Speaker 1: not hold a damn thing back. And sitting down with
Speaker 1: a group of people to watch that was really interesting,
Speaker 1: and it was a lot of people. I think most
Speaker 1: of us had never seen it before. I think only
Speaker 1: one had. So to be able to have those responses
Speaker 1: in the moment in this climate then that we've had
Speaker 1: over the last few years is I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: it's relieving in a way to know that it has
Speaker 1: existed and it's not just a new thing that's taking over,
Speaker 1: but also it's terrifying. In the other hand of that,
Speaker 1: Robber Stomper is a wild movie that I almost feel
Speaker 1: like people should be required to watch.
Speaker 2: It the major trigger warnings beforehand, you.
Speaker 1: Know, major trigger warnings. There's a lot of things that
Speaker 1: I man just so pissed off in the movie. But
Speaker 1: that's that's the funny thing. Is everybody in this movie
Speaker 1: is wholly unlikable, and they film it and tell the
Speaker 1: story in a way that makes you, in small moment
Speaker 1: sympathize with some of these people, and you go, wait, wait, wait, No,
Speaker 1: these are just massive pieces of shit the entire time.
Speaker 2: But they're human, right, you see, you see why they
Speaker 2: retreat into hatred. You know right, We're gonna take We're
Speaker 2: gonna take everything and ruin your life. God sent us.
Speaker 2: It is definitely remarkably quotable, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that was that was a hell of the
Speaker 1: first time watch especially with a group of people. Really,
Speaker 1: I know, it's an interesting time to like self promote
Speaker 1: like this, but the Patreon been growing.
Speaker 2: Everybody give it a thought if you are into it.
Speaker 1: More people at these watch alongs really make it more interesting.
Speaker 1: And we every single time after we have the watch along,
Speaker 1: we stayed to talk about the movie and everything else.
Speaker 1: I think the movie got done about ten pm Central time.
Speaker 1: This last time, I didn't go to bed till after
Speaker 1: two on Sunday night because we all just sat there
Speaker 1: on on discord and talked for hours.
Speaker 2: Genuinely, So, month, how do you do it? Is it
Speaker 2: like audio channels? Are you typing?
Speaker 1: No, it's all audio and typing at the same time. Wow,
Speaker 1: in discord, I'm playing the movie for everybody.
Speaker 2: Oh, so you're actually like streaming it.
Speaker 1: I am streaming the film for everybody.
Speaker 2: Oh that's that is sweet. Yeah. I tried to do
Speaker 2: one of those things one time with a different group
Speaker 2: that will not be named, and got there and I
Speaker 2: was supposed to have already watched the movie on my own,
Speaker 2: and I was like, well, I thought we were watching
Speaker 2: it together and then talking about it, and they're like, no,
Speaker 2: you watched and then we talk about it. Oh, I
Speaker 2: don't want to do that. It's like everybody was like
Speaker 2: day we tried it, and it was like days later
Speaker 2: for most of them, and half of them hadn't even
Speaker 2: watched it, of course, because when you're left to do
Speaker 2: something on your own, you don't do it. And so
Speaker 2: I'm glad that you like make it live like that.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean you kind of have to a lot
Speaker 1: of these things people aren't going to make the time,
Speaker 1: and it makes it an event. It's something special for sure.
Speaker 1: The other thing too, I know that Will and I
Speaker 1: didn't really plan on saying it, but both of us
Speaker 1: kind of facing rough times at the moment for sure,
Speaker 1: in our personal lives and the Patriot. I'm SI running
Speaker 1: with that promotion where if you sign up at the
Speaker 1: twelve dollars level and pay for a year in advance,
Speaker 1: you get a bonus gift, So check that out. If
Speaker 1: you're inclined, we would love to have you in the discord.
Speaker 1: It's an incredibly active thing. We've got people that own
Speaker 1: record stores across the US. We've got people from labels
Speaker 1: in there to ask questions to Joel from Scarecrows always
Speaker 1: in there, answering questions for people, all kinds of people,
Speaker 1: sharing thoughts on movies, sharing trailers that come out, and
Speaker 1: just hanging out. It's literally the best place for film
Speaker 1: on the Internet that I've ever found. So really grateful
Speaker 1: to have everybody in this time.
Speaker 2: You know what I do. Whenever time's rough, kit is
Speaker 2: it safe to share on YouTube? I take this big
Speaker 2: square gummy and I put it in my mouth. Speaking
Speaker 2: of Joel, I watched the first few episodes of the
Speaker 2: Last of Us, and for those of us who don't
Speaker 2: play video games, you're in for a surprise.
Speaker 1: I still need to start the show here. It's incredible.
Speaker 2: It kind of sucks. The first season was like one
Speaker 2: of the most boring things I thought, I was like,
Speaker 2: can we like Honestly, the first season had me longing
Speaker 2: for the fast pace of walking dead.
Speaker 1: Yikes, yikes, yikes, yikes, Ronnie said, the last of Us
Speaker 1: ripped out my heart.
Speaker 2: A sorry, despite it being boring to me, I did.
Speaker 2: I was moved by the thing that happens. All right.
Speaker 1: I could to spoil it here.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think it's pretty well known, but because
Speaker 2: like all the gamers are like, how are they going
Speaker 2: to do that? And the answer was they just freaking
Speaker 2: did it. Like whoa, dude, that's brave, that's like, you
Speaker 2: want to move on.
Speaker 1: Well, I've never seen it, so I have no idea
Speaker 1: and I've never had it spoiled. But Will and I
Speaker 1: had some pre orders come in that we have not
Speaker 1: made recently. What kind of pickups you got?
Speaker 2: I got a bunch because I didn't. I don't think
Speaker 2: I showed any last month because I was broadcasting from.
Speaker 1: Oh you were on the beach last month.
Speaker 2: That's right, Ronnie found season one moving. I did. At times,
Speaker 2: I just was like I wanted more zombie death. That said,
Speaker 2: speaking of, it's not like I don't like things that
Speaker 2: are slow, because I just got three box sets of
Speaker 2: Hal Hartley movies who I love and that's really your
Speaker 2: fault because you were like, how Hartley's putting all those
Speaker 2: movies on discounts. So I was like, shit, and it's
Speaker 2: pretty rare. And I got my Grindhouse releasing of the
Speaker 2: four K of the Beyond Excellent, which came with a
Speaker 2: T shirt that said directed by Luccio Faulci, which of
Speaker 2: course I wearded the Fabio Fritzy Show and there was
Speaker 2: a check there with the same shirt and I was like, ittch,
Speaker 2: get out. As you know, I'm a huge fan of
Speaker 2: Domiano Domiani. So I picked up A Man on his Knees,
Speaker 2: the Signer Story from Radiance. I've also been on a
Speaker 2: Joe Lynch kick. I got Mayhem and what's that one? Ellie?
Speaker 2: Is that what it's called? And uh, I forget it.
Speaker 2: That's the one I happen to watch. It's got Samahaya
Speaker 2: can Oh no, it's not Ellie, It's I haven't watched it. Yeah. Well,
Speaker 2: I picked up Chill Rama the Omnibus that's got Adam
Speaker 2: Rifkin and Joe Lynch, Tim Sullivan, Adam Green. So I'm
Speaker 2: excited to see that. Speaking of International Worker's Day, I
Speaker 2: got a classic Hollywood movie that's pro union, The Devil
Speaker 2: in Miss Jones and Miss Jones. The Devil and Miss Jones,
Speaker 2: I'm not to be confused. I got a John Cusack
Speaker 2: double feature of The Sure Thing in Hot Pursuit, Getting
Speaker 2: my cue Sack on almost.
Speaker 1: That Joe Lynch movie was Everly by the.
Speaker 2: Way, Everly, So I got Everly Mayhem and chill rama
Speaker 2: to add to suitable flesh. Just got to package in
Speaker 2: from a Fun City, got My Party Girl, finally got

Speaker 2: and finally very excited about this, so jealous of Bill
Speaker 2: Ackerman for doing the commentary. I love John Sales, I
Speaker 2: love Baby It's you I have Finally, and this is
Speaker 2: kind of a live unboxing because this just arrived this afternoon,
Speaker 2: one of the most anticipated box sets of the year,
Speaker 2: with incredibly compelling cover art Black Spilly Classics Number Volume
Speaker 2: one from Show Factory. Look at that. I really wish.
Speaker 1: That they were going to replace it with another picture.
Speaker 2: Came with a coffee poster, which I'm stoked about, So
Speaker 2: hooray truck Turner and four K Yeah, I need to
Speaker 2: get that one eventually. Ye so those are my pickups
Speaker 2: for April and half of May, half of March. I
Speaker 2: mean about.
Speaker 1: On well, first, on the Blaxploitation box set, what would
Speaker 1: be your biggest recommends for everybody else out of there?
Speaker 2: Black Caesar is a bona fide classic Larry Cohen directing
Speaker 2: Fred the Hammer Williamson the sequel Help in Harlem also
Speaker 2: Larry Cohen, really really good, followed by Coffee, followed by
Speaker 2: Across one hundred and tenth Street. These are all bangers.
Speaker 2: I mean, Sheba Baby, truck Turner, I mean, you cannot
Speaker 2: go wrong with any of these.
Speaker 1: I don't think I've seen Across one hundred and tenth
Speaker 1: Street yet.
Speaker 2: I've got the imprint edition of that. My previous editions
Speaker 2: of Black Caesar and Help, Help and Harlem are olive,
Speaker 2: so those are replaceable. Sheiba Baby, I have the Arrow addition,
Speaker 2: and Coffee I have the Umbrella edition. Truck Turner I
Speaker 2: did not have, so yeah, I mean, obviously these are
Speaker 2: all four K upgrades with different extras, so if you've
Speaker 2: got those older editions, you'll want to think carefully.
Speaker 1: I think truck Turner is my favorite there, and I
Speaker 1: did unfortunately. I think I have the one on one
Speaker 1: films Blu Ray that was done on that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, got any more space? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That that is true. I this weekend, I'm gonna be
Speaker 1: spending a munch time getting list together stuff to get
Speaker 1: rid of that has been upgraded or unnecessary to keep
Speaker 1: based on what I've watched and been eh yeah eh,
Speaker 1: speaking of some great movies that I've not seen, Well,
Speaker 1: I guess I've seen one of these, but the rest
Speaker 1: of the I'll do the one I've seen first and
Speaker 1: then highlight why about the rest of them. I had
Speaker 1: to get the four K of Tombstone that was just released.
Speaker 1: I love this. Got this in from.
Speaker 2: Brother Belile go to Brotherbelile dot com.
Speaker 1: Wanted to remind people of that because he seems to
Speaker 1: have stock on stuff that is selling out elsewhere and
Speaker 1: then it lasts on his site because people just don't
Speaker 1: know about it. So make sure you're book bookmarking that
Speaker 1: Brother Belile b E L I A L dot com
Speaker 1: Free shipping after one hundred bucks. The big thing with
Speaker 1: him is if you pre order and buy in stock items,
Speaker 1: he'll ship you stuff as it's ready, so you can
Speaker 1: have free shipping and get multiple shipments out of it.
Speaker 1: Even he's got to be losing money on that, but
Speaker 1: it's a great site. He packages like a collector. I've
Speaker 1: known him for years. We met first in vinyl groups
Speaker 1: like seven years ago, and to see him doing really
Speaker 1: great stuff with this is great. So check out Brother Blale.
Speaker 1: Tombstone was in stock there long after it sold out
Speaker 1: everywhere else. The same thing just happened with Kingdom of Heaven.
Speaker 1: I think he was the last one to go out
Speaker 1: of stock.
Speaker 2: I'll be a huckle f k.
Speaker 1: These next three I bought because I before Will had
Speaker 1: never seen any leaf Frost, and I said I would
Speaker 1: be supporting these. So the pickup from seven, Oh my god,
Speaker 1: get this.
Speaker 2: You got to watch mal mal Sex Sex the documentary
Speaker 2: included on it. It's so good you seen. That's the
Speaker 2: reason I bought it.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, you speaking on that documentary when it was
Speaker 1: announced is the like, the main thing that made me
Speaker 1: want it.
Speaker 2: It's better than the pick up. Uh, and I you know,
Speaker 2: you know me, I love like if leef Froth made it,
Speaker 2: I like it. But uh, but Mal Mouse Sex Sex
Speaker 2: is I think the single best documentary about David Friedman.
Speaker 2: You really get to know him as a human being
Speaker 2: and it's so nice nice. I mean, I mean, like
Speaker 2: I wouldn't trust him, but it checks out. Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I I've said on here many many times that I
Speaker 1: don't have the respect for this person as an actor yet,
Speaker 1: and I said I was going to try harder, and
Speaker 1: I especially promised mister Craig Rogers in the chat that
Speaker 1: I was going to try and I've never seen this,
Speaker 1: So I had to buy Dirty Harry on four K.
Speaker 2: I was gonna I was going to guess the actor,
Speaker 2: but I wasn't going to guess Clint east One.
Speaker 1: Who are you gonna guess?
Speaker 2: Uh? I don't know. You know jokes, you don't force it,
Speaker 2: you know, God, God was going to tell me who
Speaker 2: to guess.
Speaker 1: And then a few months ago I just realized what
Speaker 1: you said. A few months ago, I told the chat
Speaker 1: that I was going to be watching this at some
Speaker 1: point this year because I've never seen it, and everything
Speaker 1: I've said is it's one of the most influential things
Speaker 1: and I love animation. And so I finally picked up
Speaker 1: a Kira on four K. I've still never and excited
Speaker 1: to watch it. I got this thing for very cheap.
Speaker 2: Did you say you've never seen it? Never seen in Kira. Wow,
Speaker 2: now that South Park episode is going to make so
Speaker 2: much sense, so.
Speaker 1: Much more sense that in the scene and Nope, and yeah,
Speaker 1: lots of lots of touch points for that that I'm
Speaker 1: excited to be able to understand now. So yeah, like
Speaker 1: I said, we've got a special guest that's going to
Speaker 1: commit in from one of our announcements tonight that is
Speaker 1: going to be coming during the Vinegar Syndrome portion. Keep
Speaker 1: an eye on that. If you're into music, keep hanging out.
Speaker 1: It's somebody that you might recognize. Other than that, anything
Speaker 1: you want to go into before we go to the announcements, will.
Speaker 2: Oh you know what, I did see one other movie.
Speaker 2: I was like, I couldn't sleep and I was just like,
Speaker 2: I'll just put someone streaming that's like about to leave
Speaker 2: the service. And I watched Rambo Last Blood. Holy shit, dude,
Speaker 2: there's so much blood in that. I mean, was that
Speaker 2: movie produced by Christy No, that's like the move. Why
Speaker 2: do you say that they lost their entire budget? No,
Speaker 2: because that movie really hates Hispanic people. But I was like,
Speaker 2: I was pretty shocked, pretty shocked. Yeah, it takes a
Speaker 2: lot to shock me. And I was like, whoa man
Speaker 2: this is this is like if this, if this, if
Speaker 2: you watch that movie and that's all you know of,
Speaker 2: like living near the border, you'd be like, yeah, we
Speaker 2: need a wall, like whoa. Yeah, I did not care
Speaker 2: for that movie. I was was pretty pretty upsetting.
Speaker 1: The amount of jokes that just happened about who's somebody,
Speaker 1: who's technically my boss is making me very happy right now,
Speaker 1: all right, on the notes of.
Speaker 2: She is my boss, no shade, no shade.
Speaker 1: No lots of shade, geeze, all offense intended. If you
Speaker 1: are watching the CIA, please I disable my card tomorrow.
Speaker 1: I'd love to hear that.
Speaker 2: I don't think you really want that to happen.
Speaker 1: For a lawsuit, it would be worth it. A hero, dude,
Speaker 1: I'd be a martyr.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Ed Norton could play you in a movie. I
Speaker 2: know they never mind.
Speaker 1: I wasn't making a joke about the new haircut, and
Speaker 1: they wouldn't use me as a hero anyways.
Speaker 2: In a world where people are afraid to stand up
Speaker 2: for what they believe in one man, one man work
Speaker 2: from home.
Speaker 3: All right, Speaking of physical media, let's get into these announcements.
Speaker 3: First August fourth Blu Ray in the UK from Treasured Films.
Speaker 1: We are getting Mikey from nineteen ninety two. Mikey is
Speaker 1: the Killer Kid movie that's competed with The good Son
Speaker 1: and somehow lost, even though I think it is a
Speaker 1: much better movie, way better, way better.
Speaker 2: John Dial is so fun in this. I love him
Speaker 2: so much.
Speaker 1: Treasured Films is doing really great stuff. This release has
Speaker 1: a brand new four K scan from the original negative,

Speaker 1: Mimi Craven, a new interview with witt Hertford, new Treasured
Speaker 1: Film's guide The Killer Kids of the Movies, visual essay
Speaker 1: by Darryl Buxton, and somehow not Erica Schortz. How does that?
Speaker 1: Erica Schultz? How does that not make any sense?
Speaker 2: There? Well, this is a killer kid, not a kid
Speaker 2: who is well, I think, well he does kind of.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's probably gonna go into that subject a little bit.
Speaker 1: Then we got a feature link doc that was put
Speaker 1: out before a whole bunch of archival cials.
Speaker 2: Well, Mike, you alluded to it being better overall. What
Speaker 2: do you feel about Mikey Love Mikey discovered that in
Speaker 2: the video store years Ashley Lawrence. You know, yeah, I
Speaker 2: thought Brian Bonsall is great in this movie. He's great
Speaker 2: sod and it's really funny. I mean, the kids, the
Speaker 2: kid's body countess.
Speaker 1: There's so many things that happened in this movie, and
Speaker 1: the mom is just like, you cannot behave this way.
Speaker 2: I think. I think the vhs UH tagline was something
Speaker 2: like even Freddie and Jason were kids once. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: very very funny, very tongue in cheek. Really, I think
Speaker 2: the it paints right up there with the bad Seed
Speaker 2: and you know, the real godfathers and godmothers of the
Speaker 2: killer kid genre. Yeah, great way to start, great way
Speaker 2: to start the release.
Speaker 1: A couple of weeks ago on the show, I mentioned
Speaker 1: that I watched the Moonbeam Entertainment film Remote with John Deealle.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about Remote? Love Remote? That's a

Speaker 2: lot of really good, fun schlocky full moon movies that

Speaker 1: don't really remember it. We got some extras on here

Speaker 1: art looking on this one. Anybody loving night Watch? I

Speaker 1: on it, so it looks like a good set. However,
Speaker 1: I've heard this movie's not very great. Anybody else seen it?
Speaker 2: Right? I think I made a mistake. I think it's
Speaker 2: Scotch doppoly.
Speaker 1: Now that instead of something I would order at wailf Last,
Speaker 1: sounds like a game i'd play on the sidewalk.
Speaker 2: Like with a unhoused guy with a brown bag full
Speaker 2: of hooch. Anyways, to the dexides.

Speaker 1: It is here, however, it is just in SD. They
Speaker 1: did not. They were not able to get original elements
Speaker 1: for this. It was pulled from a tape master. However,
Speaker 1: it is the first time that it has been released
Speaker 1: in ages or seen in ages. This is a pretty
Speaker 1: huge deal for fans of Cobra. This is a very
Speaker 1: fun movie. This is who should I say, probably top
Speaker 1: two or three stallone from me?
Speaker 2: Wow, you want to die with me? Pig?
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a This is a pretty good one.
Speaker 1: This is as far as I can tell, if I
Speaker 1: remember right, I believe this got all of the screen
Speaker 1: factory extras, which was a pretty robust release, and they
Speaker 1: got a new commentary by Kim Newman and Nick Deceemlion.
Speaker 1: The is also a new commentary by Josh Nelson and
Speaker 1: Martin Peddler. That's pretty good to get two new commentaries
Speaker 1: on a already full release. Then Yeah TV version of

Speaker 1: see when I see this last name Bastow. Yes, I
Speaker 1: love I love William bib Bianni. He's been a friend
Speaker 1: of the channel, he's been on here before. This looks
Speaker 1: like a hell of release if you love Cobra, especially
Speaker 1: if you don't have that Blu ray release. This is
Speaker 1: a very exciting release.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I like Brian Thompson a lot, a good villain.
Speaker 1: Happy with Cobra.
Speaker 2: I mean happy in the sense that it's a spectacle
Speaker 2: of bloated masculine excess. Politically, it's a little to the
Speaker 2: right of humanity.
Speaker 1: I mean of humanity.
Speaker 2: I don't know about that. I mean, I mean, if
Speaker 2: you're the kind of person who thinks that some people
Speaker 2: just deserve to be freaking murdered, then yeah, this is
Speaker 2: the kind of stuff that's you know, that's Stallone's worldview.
Speaker 1: That's just a normal day in the neighborhood.
Speaker 2: Yeah, next up, though, Oh, he's a fake tough guy.
Speaker 2: Oh well sure, yeah, obviously.
Speaker 1: This however very very excited by July twenty first in
Speaker 1: the UK. July twenty second, North America, we are getting
Speaker 1: a four K of Larry Cohen's The Stuff from nineteen
Speaker 1: eighty five.
Speaker 2: Adore this movie.
Speaker 1: This is getting an illustrated booklet with writing on the
Speaker 1: movie by Joel Harley, a new essay by Daniel Burnett.
Speaker 1: The four K disc is going to have the feature
Speaker 1: and some extras on it. This has a brand new
Speaker 1: four K restoration from the OCN by Arrow themselves, new
Speaker 1: commentary by David Flint and Adrian Smith, and archival commentary
Speaker 1: by Larry Cohen. We've got the feature link doc that
Speaker 1: was released previously on this as well then some other
Speaker 1: archival featurettes. But the big thing disc number two. This
Speaker 1: is going to be exclusive to the limited edition. You
Speaker 1: have to buy the limited edition to get this disc.
Speaker 1: This is a pretty big deal early pre release cut
Speaker 1: of the movie with thirty plus minutes of additional footage
Speaker 1: and alternate music score that's been remastered by Arrow. That's
Speaker 1: huge to be able to get that version. I don't
Speaker 1: know when it was released before, but yeah, this is
Speaker 1: This is a pretty good deal.
Speaker 2: The only downside is that the score is the Benny
Speaker 2: Hill theme, just over and over.
Speaker 1: And it's dispersed evenly throughout the entire film, so it
Speaker 1: just keeps happening. All the face is getting you away
Speaker 1: and stuff. Oh man, I adore this movie. I've got
Speaker 1: I've got a the stuff container up on the shelf
Speaker 1: over there. I'm sure you like this one too.
Speaker 2: No. Oh yeah, Larry Cohen can do no wrong. That
Speaker 2: is not not anymore anyway.
Speaker 1: Jesus, oh man, Hey, not really, Hey, we just talked
Speaker 1: about this movie. July twenty eighth, the UK is getting
Speaker 1: a four K release of Zombie Flesh Eaters aka Zombie
Speaker 1: to aka Zombie from nineteen seventy nine by Lucio Fulci.
Speaker 1: This is a four K restoration from the two per
Speaker 1: technoscope negative, which means it's the exact same restoration as
Speaker 1: The Blue Underground. Aero might have done some touch up work,
Speaker 1: like they've done on some of the previous releases like
Speaker 1: Housed by the Cemetery. You could see like a very
Speaker 1: slight improvement over the Blue Underground. I don't remember any
Speaker 1: issues with the Blue Underground one I've watched it a
Speaker 1: few times because I adore this movie so nothing that
Speaker 1: I would be looking for picture quality wise, But new
Speaker 1: commentary on here by Eugenio or Kolani, Troy Howarth and
Speaker 1: Nathaniel Thompson. We've got archival commentary's galore. We've got a
Speaker 1: new visual essay by Alexandra Heller Nicholas, new visual essay
Speaker 1: by Chris Alexander, and a booklet that's gonna be on
Speaker 1: this one perfect band book with new writing by Willi McLay,
Speaker 1: Jack Sargent, Heather Wixon and Matt Rogerson.
Speaker 2: Yeah, great movie, big fan. You know, I was thinking
Speaker 2: if I added up all of the money I've spent
Speaker 2: on every upgrade of Luccio Fulci and Dario Argento movies
Speaker 2: since the VHS days, I could probably buy a house.
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, you could probably fund one of
Speaker 1: the films they made. Yeah, I really love this movie.
Speaker 1: If you've never seen it, KB says, does this mean
Speaker 1: zombie fighting shark on Arrow?
Speaker 2: Yes, yes it does. Don't you remember when that remember
Speaker 2: that best By commercial had the scene of the zombie
Speaker 2: fighting in the shark in the middle of the commercial.
Speaker 2: I remember, I remember the commercial. I must have been
Speaker 2: watching a basketball game or something, because that's the only
Speaker 2: time I watched like TV with commercials in it, and uh,
Speaker 2: best is like, what the hell is that zombie? Some
Speaker 2: cool some cool dude worked on that commercial.
Speaker 1: On that note, I hope he's able to listen during
Speaker 1: the season, but I want to shout out, uh, mister
Speaker 1: John to Marcico who they just did a Zombie Night
Speaker 1: at the Mets Ballpark and had the fans arrested to
Speaker 1: zombies and in the broadcast, John played part of the
Speaker 1: freezy score from Zombie. It went all out to the world,
Speaker 1: everybody loves s n y John Demarsco, you are my hero.
Speaker 1: Please keep up what you're doing. You are killing it
Speaker 1: and it's amazing.
Speaker 2: Way to go, man.
Speaker 1: So yeah you can. You can get this cover with
Speaker 1: the soon to be I Gore scene, or you can
Speaker 1: order from the Aero website for an exclusive version their
Speaker 1: original release. Now what's odd for me on this one?
Speaker 1: I was like, you know, I kind of want the
Speaker 1: iconic art if I'm ever going to pick this up.
Speaker 1: But if you look at it, to me, this looks
Speaker 1: like it's just gonna be on the like the slip
Speaker 1: little sleeve that goes around the release itself. I don't
Speaker 1: just the little slip sleeve. I wanted to be on
Speaker 1: the hard box, So I don't know if this is
Speaker 1: worth it to me.
Speaker 2: You're just taking a break. This couch is really comfortable,
Speaker 2: but I have to like lean forward to do this,
Speaker 2: and well I lean back, I begin to fall asleep.
Speaker 1: We literally all saw the guvy. Following the Arrow announcements,
Speaker 1: Terror Vision dropped something silly on their website. This is
Speaker 1: releasing in June and it is a four K and
Speaker 1: Blu ray combo pack of Arbor Day from nineteen ninety.
Speaker 1: What is Arbor Day? You've never seen it? Pretty much guaranteed.

Speaker 1: areas and then out of nowhere disappeared and Terror Vision

Speaker 1: and now it is here on four k UHD. This
Speaker 1: is gonna be a three disc set limited to a
Speaker 1: thousand copies. The third disc here is a different restoration.
Speaker 1: The filmmakers behind the movie made a restoration themselves that
Speaker 1: was up on streaming for a little while for some
Speaker 1: people to see. It's not nearly as good as the
Speaker 1: four K restoration on this, so make sure you check
Speaker 1: that out. It has definitely been improved. But the movie
Speaker 1: itself that's not limited. You'll be able to get that
Speaker 1: pretty much forever from Terror Vision, so don't worry about that.
Speaker 2: All kinds of extras here.
Speaker 1: The filmmakers themselves put together a pretty giant package for
Speaker 1: people to discover with this one stoked for people to
Speaker 1: see it Arbor Day.

Speaker 1: pre order now. The limited edition is priced at eighty
Speaker 1: nine to ninety nine and the special edition, this second one,
Speaker 1: is forty four to ninety five. So the limited edition
Speaker 1: has the CD soundtrack, it's got some art cards, and
Speaker 1: I think a booklet that is exclusive to that one.
Speaker 1: The standard or special edition is what they're calling it. Honestly,
Speaker 1: it doesn't look to be like even just a regular release.
Speaker 1: Looks really nice, and to me that almost looks like
Speaker 1: a limited edition. I would save the money and get
Speaker 1: the cheaper one by far.
Speaker 2: If you're interested in this, that's what I would do
Speaker 2: as well. Oh will all right?

Speaker 1: of the nineteen eleven biograph short A Decree of Destiny
Speaker 1: with Harry Pickford.
Speaker 2: Wo Yes, this is if.
Speaker 1: You are into classic silent film, going to be a
Speaker 1: very excellent disc.
Speaker 2: I'm sure who's into like, non classic silent film. Paul
Speaker 2: Thomas Anderson, Who's like, I just want to watch the
Speaker 2: shitty stuff. Paul Thomas Anderson likes bad silent movies.
Speaker 1: I was making a joke that he made a contemporary
Speaker 1: silent film.
Speaker 2: He did the Yeah, I thought so. Anyways, Paul Thomas Anderson,
Speaker 2: what was that? I don't know. I don't know. We're
Speaker 2: talking about that French clown movie.
Speaker 1: Maybe I'm confusing myself.
Speaker 2: Mime? Is it a mime? They won the Oscar. It
Speaker 2: was the best picture of that year. Do you know
Speaker 2: we have we talked? Have you talked about the new uh?
Speaker 2: The new story about the Oscar? Oh? God, no, go ahead.
Speaker 2: It was in the Times. Yep, go right ahead. The Academy.
Speaker 2: The Academy has instituted a new rule that Oscar voters
Speaker 2: have to watch the movies first time. Thank goodness, you can.
Speaker 2: You can see why I appreciate the Oscars so much.
Speaker 2: The artist? Who is that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't think, Ronnie said at first, No it
Speaker 1: wasn't Paul Thomas Anderson. Yeah, I think so. I remember
Speaker 1: his name. I'm just gonna in my mind it's pta lepo.
Speaker 1: All right, here we go. Shout factory stuff.
Speaker 2: This is a.
Speaker 1: Interesting slate to say the least, July first four K
Speaker 1: coming of Mary Colors from nineteen ninety eight. This is
Speaker 1: the Emma Thompson John Travolta film. This one's have a
Speaker 1: new audio commentary with Drew mcweeney and Elaine May Or sorry,
Speaker 1: Elaine made biographer Carry Corrigan.
Speaker 2: A new interview.
Speaker 1: New interviews on this with Paul Gilfoyle and Joe Klein
Speaker 1: and Adrian Lester. But yeah, four K released. This will
Speaker 1: ab Dolby Vision, big big deal.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know the Clinton's right, the primary I feel
Speaker 2: your pain or whatever that guy.
Speaker 1: The OSCARS is run like a Letterboxes Brendon. This is
Speaker 1: a lot Bolta's comeback. Can't believe he crashed and burned again.
Speaker 2: I think Letterbox has way more integrity than the Academy.
Speaker 2: Primary color is Mike Nichols, right, I think so? Yeah,
Speaker 2: Well that would make sense with the lame may biography.
Speaker 1: Yeah too, sche All right, Next up, Alexander Revisited. The
Speaker 1: Final Cut is the next Stone film to get a
Speaker 1: four K release from show. This is on July first
Speaker 1: on four K. This is going to be including a
Speaker 1: poster if you order from them. As well. On top
Speaker 1: of that, they've got a new commentary with Matt Zoler, seats,
Speaker 1: new interview with Oliver Stone, new interview with the editor,
Speaker 1: Alex Marquez's visual effects supervisor John Shiel, and then a
Speaker 1: feature length doc that was on the previous release, along
Speaker 1: with a bunch of other archival extras. I don't remember
Speaker 1: anything about Alexander.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say something. I'm not afraid to say it.
Speaker 2: I liked it.
Speaker 1: That was not what I expected from you.
Speaker 2: I think I have seen the theatrical and what was
Speaker 2: it called the Ultimate Cut? So what is this? How
Speaker 2: is this different than the Ultimate Cut?
Speaker 1: Because Oliver Stone is almost as bad as Copla, and
Speaker 1: then he misses with everything.
Speaker 2: I mean, I usually like it when Copla messes with stuff.
Speaker 2: Lucas is the one that screws everything up. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and it's there right, you know, it's their movie. Thank you, Ronnie.
Speaker 1: Ronnie says the Artist was directed by Deep Breath. Michael
Speaker 1: has an vicious.
Speaker 2: Mission.
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, Michelle, it's not Michael. I'm man, I'm just
Speaker 1: blind tonight. Michelle hasn't what hasn't?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you know, I'm a sucker for the epics
Speaker 2: and uh, did you see Napoleon? Not yet the y aches,
Speaker 2: So it's probably going to be a test, but I
Speaker 2: am going to see it. Yeah, I thought, you know,
Speaker 2: I really I was talking a few months ago, how
Speaker 2: about how much I liked the director's cut of Troy,
Speaker 2: but the half hour longer version that Wolf can get
Speaker 2: Peterson because it got into all the you know, homo eroticism,
Speaker 2: and uh, the longer cut that I saw if Alexander
Speaker 2: did too, And you know, I'm taking as you will.
Speaker 2: I like homo eroticism. Oh we know. Yeah, it's generally
Speaker 2: welcome in movies by me, not.
Speaker 1: By many others, though sadly, uh, Colton says, the only
Speaker 1: people I know who watched Alexander were like me when
Speaker 1: it came out, and we did it for Colin Farrell.
Speaker 2: Save gender sex scenes. There we go. Oh, right on
Speaker 2: top of Coulton, that was perfect tiving me and the
Speaker 2: gay teens like Alexander. Please do not say that sentence again.
Speaker 2: Let's get it, Let's do it. Let's do a special
Speaker 2: discord viewing.
Speaker 1: Oh, another real question is who's Alexander all right? Going
Speaker 1: to the next one Strangers with Candy? The film getting
Speaker 1: a Blu Ray release. On July twenty second from Shouts.
Speaker 1: As far as I can see, nothing new on the
Speaker 1: bonus features.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what, I kind of skimmed that announcement. I thought
Speaker 2: it was of the show. So I put my Trapper
Speaker 2: Keeper DVD edition into my four salesbox. But it hasn't
Speaker 2: been sold yet, so I'll get it back. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: I already visited the show recently, as I mentioned, I
Speaker 2: have the aforementioned trapper as I mentioned, Yeah, I have
Speaker 2: the Trapper Keeper Edition, and uh, I wonder if I
Speaker 2: wonder if they would do it the same way today.
Speaker 2: You know, Colbert has talked a little bit about how
Speaker 2: he's uh embarrassed by some of it, but I think
Speaker 2: he's equivocating. He's not like It's not like the way
Speaker 2: Jimmy Kimmel pretends like he didn't mean that stuff in
Speaker 2: the Mansa right for years. Yeah, all right, just playing
Speaker 2: a character.
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, obviously you're you're a fan of Stranger
Speaker 1: of the Candy stuffw do you feel about the film
Speaker 1: compared to the show.
Speaker 2: I love Amy Sidaris, A huge fan of Amy Sidaris,
Speaker 2: which is which is so weird because I cannot stand
Speaker 2: her brother. I fund his writing very annoying. But of
Speaker 2: course everybody I know listens to NPR, so they love him. No,
Speaker 2: I love Amy Sedaris. I used to have my she's
Speaker 2: got one of her cookbooks. She's just great. What were
Speaker 2: you asking me? How did I like the movie?
Speaker 1: How do you like this compared to the show itself?
Speaker 2: Oh, you know, it's fine, that's about it. You know
Speaker 2: the show is h well, you know, it's what twenty
Speaker 2: five years ago. I mean the pace, it's amazing how
Speaker 2: different the pacing is for half hour comedies in the
Speaker 2: early two thousands to now Amy Sidaris sitting there's Aulman
Speaker 2: had the You know, she's larger, larger cultural impact. But
Speaker 2: I just think Amy Sadaris is wonderful. Anyhow, great in
Speaker 2: Jennifer's body. She's got a little role in Jennifer's body. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I'll probably check this out as a completionist.
Speaker 1: Next up, July twenty ninth, a four K release of
Speaker 1: ace Ventura Pet Detective from nineteen ninety four. Now, of
Speaker 1: course all of the questions on this were about bonus
Speaker 1: features and which cut of the film, because notoriously, the
Speaker 1: theatrical version played and then the home video version that
Speaker 1: was first released on VHS and DBD had a couple
Speaker 1: of scenes like the dolphin trainer scene. Unfortunately this is
Speaker 1: the theatrical cut of the film that is being released.
Speaker 1: And the other thing, no new bonus features whatsoever on
Speaker 1: this film. Were you a ace Ventura guy? Will like
Speaker 1: the rest of America for two years?
Speaker 2: This is my first date movie. Not very well chosen.
Speaker 2: Did not add to the ambiance. My second date movie,
Speaker 2: Natural Killers, I learned. I was like, oh, okay that she
Speaker 2: didn't like. She didn't like that one. I'll try natural
Speaker 2: born killers that would be more likely to get her
Speaker 2: in them. Food true. So yeah, I saw this in
Speaker 2: the theater. I found it exhausting as i as I
Speaker 2: generally find Jim Carrey movies to be.
Speaker 1: All of them are just the comedies from this era.
Speaker 2: Oh, dramas are even more exhausting. Yeah, you know, I'm
Speaker 2: trying to think of a moment that's like genuinely funny
Speaker 2: to me.
Speaker 1: I mean, Eternal Sunshine is pretty great. Truman Show is
Speaker 1: pretty great.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I hate that movie so much. Which
Speaker 2: you want? Eternal Sunshine of the Spot was mine? Oh
Speaker 2: come on, look, I know everybody loves it, so I'm
Speaker 2: not going to say anything it's I don't like it.
Speaker 2: That's it, all right.
Speaker 1: Connor loves the mask and he wants you to know
Speaker 1: that I.
Speaker 2: Watched the Mask again recently. Actually, Sidner asked if I
Speaker 2: was invited to parties growing up.
Speaker 1: No, the matter of fact answer was perfect, all right, Uh,
Speaker 1: Ace Mature a Pet Detective. If that's not enough, they
Speaker 1: also licensed to do this four K steel book. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is uh, this is the steel book art that
Speaker 1: they chose to go.
Speaker 2: With classic shad Yak. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I don't love the art on this one. It's clear
Speaker 1: they didn't get likeness rights and they just went with
Speaker 1: the iconic hair.
Speaker 2: But you know, it would be funny if there's a
Speaker 2: collector out there who was like, you know, I was
Speaker 2: going to get this, but I can't get behind the
Speaker 2: steel book art that a lot of people have said
Speaker 2: that literally of aceven sure a pet Detective. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: you know the central uh, the central climax is something
Speaker 2: that uh it was not very nice at the time.
Speaker 2: It was not very nice.
Speaker 1: Now, uh, Simner says, now that looks like AI man.
Speaker 1: This has been this has been contentious this week because
Speaker 1: this and the RoboCop two Seal book. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about just a moment, everybody claimed it was AI, and
Speaker 1: yet the artist came on here the artist literally commented
Speaker 1: to say, thanks for your support.
Speaker 2: Wait it's not AI.
Speaker 4: It's a lighty then, Oh well, I don't care what
Speaker 4: anybody thinks.
Speaker 2: I liked that one.
Speaker 1: I'm sure I can tell you did. Yes, this, I
Speaker 1: don't understand this whole It looks like AI. Uh it doesn't.
Speaker 1: It looks like poor photoshop. That is what I'm gonna say.
Speaker 2: That's even meaner for the artist.
Speaker 1: I mean no, it's not. At least he's doing it himself.
Speaker 2: Like it would have been better if if robot technology
Speaker 2: did it. But good for you, Pala.
Speaker 1: Saying it looks like AI is still very bad sip
Speaker 1: come on, especially after the whole attack that happened with
Speaker 1: a slipcover a few weeks ago, Like this is this
Speaker 1: is clearly not AI. It's just bad art and we
Speaker 1: should be able to say that.
Speaker 2: Huh, well, you know you're don't violate your ethos man.
Speaker 2: We don't go with good and bad here, because every
Speaker 2: slipcover is someone someone's favorite slipcover.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but this is a steel book, so fuck that.
Speaker 2: Everyone's Every steel book is someone's favorite book. You're gonna
Speaker 2: make like four people comments on this because you know
Speaker 2: what I'm gonna I'm gonna get. I'm gonna get Bob's
Speaker 2: Blu Rays on my side.
Speaker 1: I haven't talked to Bob in a while. I should
Speaker 1: reach out to him. Next up, g Kids and Shout
Speaker 1: are putting out Grave of the Fireflies in this steel book.
Speaker 1: The previous Grave of the Firefly steal book was very limited.
Speaker 1: I think it was a crunchy role exclusive back in
Speaker 1: the day. That thing consistently has gotten like two hundred
Speaker 1: and fifty bucks.
Speaker 2: Now with those kids that had some country rolls, it
Speaker 2: would have been okay. This would be a great double
Speaker 2: feature with ace Form sure a pet Detective.
Speaker 1: Yes, this is getting a released on July eighth on Blue.
Speaker 1: It's also getting a standard release, not just a steal book.
Speaker 1: I had a lot of people ask if there was
Speaker 1: gonna be a four K release. I'm gonna say right now,
Speaker 1: most likely, just eventually. You know a lot of the
Speaker 1: I think the first Jibli four K remaster is playing
Speaker 1: this summer if I remember right, so I would just
Speaker 1: be prepared. I bet a lot of those are coming
Speaker 1: the next few years, including this one. Most likely eventually.
Speaker 2: Oh man, I can't wait to see it and ultra
Speaker 2: high definition. That'll just bring it home. So I used
Speaker 2: to teach a course on the history of anime. I'll
Speaker 2: never do it again because the students that sign up
Speaker 2: for that course are fucking horrible. But but when I should,
Speaker 2: And of course, the students have never seen anything that
Speaker 2: was released prior to late twenty fifteen, of course, you know,
Speaker 2: I mean, so for most of them, it was their
Speaker 2: first time seeing Akira a vampire hunter. D goes to
Speaker 2: the shell, all that stuff, and I go all the
Speaker 2: way back to like, you know, the beginnings with around
Speaker 2: nineteen forty four.
Speaker 1: Just like you did in our visual essay on Tamla
Speaker 1: twenty ten.
Speaker 2: Well that's from Crocodile. Check that out. Yeah, yeah, nice.
Speaker 2: So when I the night the class before I was
Speaker 2: showing Grave of the Fireflies, asked how many students had
Speaker 2: seen it, and zero I had seen it. And I
Speaker 2: didn't bother to tell them not to google it to
Speaker 2: spoil it because I knew they wouldn't. That would involve
Speaker 2: curiosity and follow through. But when I came into class
Speaker 2: with Grave of the Fireflies, I had like seven boxes
Speaker 2: of tissue and put them around the room and by
Speaker 2: the end of the movie, every single box have been
Speaker 2: opened and used, like I think almost every single student
Speaker 2: cride it was. It was a great, great day for me.
Speaker 1: What a story.
Speaker 2: Hey, we just talked about AI.
Speaker 1: If you want to not support AI, let's talk about
Speaker 1: this release. Shout is putting out a standard edition of
Speaker 1: the Walston gramm At the Complete Cracking Collection on four
Speaker 1: K on July fifteenth. Now, this one, this is an
Speaker 1: AI upscale that ruins a lot of the definition of
Speaker 1: this film that was not done by Shout. Ardman the
Speaker 1: production company are the ones that did the AI upscale themselves.
Speaker 2: The rumor is right.
Speaker 1: Now and I have not been able to find confirmation anywhere,
Speaker 1: but the rumor is that the original negatives for these
Speaker 1: were all destroyed in the fires back in twenty eleven
Speaker 1: in the UK, so it is possible we will never
Speaker 1: get proper restorations of these again, which means the old
Speaker 1: Blu ray release is probably the best they're ever gonna look,
Speaker 1: because these do not look great on four K.
Speaker 2: Ardman.
Speaker 1: But hey, love Wallace and Grommet, love their stuff.
Speaker 2: Never seen it well.
Speaker 1: Abigail getting a four K release on July eighth, from
Speaker 1: Scream Factory here in the US. Of course, this is
Speaker 1: gonna be frustrating for people that bought the Blu Ray
Speaker 1: when this was released like six months ago from Universal,
Speaker 1: even though I told you don't buy the Blu ray
Speaker 1: because it'll likely come to four K soon. Here it
Speaker 1: is on four K from Scream.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: The really cool thing I do got to point out
Speaker 1: this is getting a load of new bonus features, and
Speaker 1: that is great. Like we got a new audio commentary
Speaker 1: from Drew mcweeney on the four K and Blu Ray disc,
Speaker 1: and then a whole bunch of interviews that are coming
Speaker 1: on a Blu ray disc as well. This is really cool,
Speaker 1: especially for a contemporary film. Usually we don't get this much,
Speaker 1: and I'm kind of impressed the Screen Factory did this
Speaker 1: for this title. I'm really glad I didn't get any
Speaker 1: other release for this so that I can get Drew's
Speaker 1: commentary on this too.
Speaker 2: I wonder if he talks about how the studio ruined
Speaker 2: the movie with the trailers.
Speaker 1: I would hope that he would. Knowing Drew, he probably did.
Speaker 2: Of course, the writer kind of ruined the movie with
Speaker 2: the writing. It's got some of the most awkward character
Speaker 2: backstory exposition I've ever seen. They're trapped in the house
Speaker 2: with a freaking vampire. It's like, I'm going to tell
Speaker 2: you how I became this piece of shit, grip all
Speaker 2: these stories. It's like focus people.
Speaker 1: I actually really liked this movie.
Speaker 2: But okay, that's okay.
Speaker 1: No, when we're not live, you burate me for my taste,
Speaker 1: and I get it.
Speaker 2: That's it's called for. I would never bererate you to
Speaker 2: my face. I know.
Speaker 1: July fifteenth, there's a four K coming of Battle Beyond
Speaker 1: the Stars from nineteen eighty. This is the classic Corman
Speaker 1: that they had done previously in a Blu Ray Steel
Speaker 1: book that they've been trying really hard to get rid
Speaker 1: of for a couple of years, and now they've released
Speaker 1: an up grade on it.
Speaker 2: This is it was funny. I have the Steel book.
Speaker 2: I do too.
Speaker 1: I even have the Neca figure they released for this.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's that's taking us up. Yes, it is.
Speaker 1: The Only thing this added is there's a documentary here
Speaker 1: about James Horner's first film scores, featuring new interviews with
Speaker 1: Sarah Horner, the historian, Daniel Schweiger, the composer, David Newman,
Speaker 1: and the author Jeff Bond. There's also an interview with
Speaker 1: Alan Howarth on this, as well.
Speaker 2: Audio commentary with John Sales Roderick Corman. I know that's
Speaker 2: on the I know that's old news, but that that
Speaker 2: alone is worth having the movie if you don't have it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, for the second time, you don't get to talk
Speaker 1: about sales enough on here.
Speaker 2: Now you've been able to shout it out twice tonight.
Speaker 2: That's cool.
Speaker 1: What you don't get to talk about sales enough, John Sales,
Speaker 1: and you've talked about John Sales twice night. Else not
Speaker 1: like this is discounted.
Speaker 2: It was like, you talk about sales, that's your job,
Speaker 2: all right.
Speaker 1: Fade to Black is coming to four K in July
Speaker 1: twenty ninth from Scream Factory. This was previously released on
Speaker 1: Blue from Vinegar Syndrome. This has a new audio commentary
Speaker 1: with Drew mcweeney said, for the third time tonight, everything
Speaker 1: else on here is identical to the Vinegar Syndrome release.
Speaker 1: So if you've got that Blue, I don't know that
Speaker 1: it's gonna be super important to upgrade, However, I will.
Speaker 1: I don't think we've ever talked to those this movie.
Speaker 1: How do you feel about Fade of Black.
Speaker 2: It's okay.
Speaker 1: I'm still rather impressed with this movie. I think it's
Speaker 1: much better than I expected it to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's a key ber I'm I'm considering
Speaker 2: the upgrade. I don't know if I'm gonna but I
Speaker 2: wouldn't hate it if I did. Oh, well, hmm, weird crazy?
Speaker 1: What's weird?
Speaker 2: I was just gazing at the four audio commentaries and
Speaker 2: taking in the different names.
Speaker 1: You're just so excited to listen to that hysteria continues.
Speaker 2: Let's go to the next title.
Speaker 1: July twenty second, there is an Amazon exclusive four K
Speaker 1: steel book being released to the Last Voyage of the Demeter.
Speaker 1: This is pissing a lot of people off because they
Speaker 1: just released the standard four K a couple months ago,
Speaker 1: and now they're like, well, now you want me to
Speaker 1: buy it again? No, I mean, I mean that they
Speaker 1: would be happy if you gave them more money, but
Speaker 1: you don't have to. However, if you're a steel book collector,
Speaker 1: the screen factory's just doing this. They've been doing it
Speaker 1: a lot lately, and that is I don't know, like
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want a room full of steel books. That
Speaker 1: seems awful to me. It's so heavy and they damaged
Speaker 1: so easily. That would be crazy. Yeah, it's nice that
Speaker 1: this is getting a decent release for people that love
Speaker 1: this movie. I know this had a lot of fans
Speaker 1: it did, it did. It was a fairly divisive movie,
Speaker 1: but some really loved it.
Speaker 2: I was divisive. I really like you, Mark, I really
Speaker 2: liked the director, you know, I thought a scream of
Speaker 2: it is to tell them the dark was okay, mmm.
Speaker 1: Better better than it could have been.
Speaker 2: I think. Yeah, of course, troll Hunter is one of
Speaker 2: the greatest film footage movies ever.
Speaker 1: Very good movie.
Speaker 2: That's in case you're wondering. Yeah, I'm drinking ginger tea
Speaker 2: freshly sliced ginger and squeezed lemons.
Speaker 1: Kb's a fond memory of the movies. He got COVID
Speaker 1: that night when he saw it. Demeter Ooh, this is
Speaker 1: the other one that I was talking about. So RoboCop
Speaker 1: two getting a four K steal book released. This is
Speaker 1: also an Amazon exclusive released on July fifteenth. This is
Speaker 1: the same artist Mexi Funk you can see here. He commented,
Speaker 1: he's the guy that did the Jim Carrey one and this.
Speaker 1: I've liked a lot of Mexi Funk's art in the past. However,
Speaker 1: I do not like the two pieces of output that
Speaker 1: he did this month that much.
Speaker 2: Wow. Yes, devastating.
Speaker 1: This is a wild picture because this is also not
Speaker 1: in the film like this at all.
Speaker 2: No, it's uh looks like it belongs more with like
Speaker 2: the RoboCop cartoon. Yes, yes it does, but you know,
Speaker 2: the guy makes a guy of draws. You know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: good for you.
Speaker 1: But maybe the most exciting for a lot of people,
Speaker 1: Shout is launching their new Hong Kong Cinema Classics line.
Speaker 1: This is the first five titles in that line, and
Speaker 1: it is the Jetly collection. These are all coming on
Speaker 1: four K and Blu ray here in the US, and
Speaker 1: we are going to be including Fung Sai Yuk one
Speaker 1: and two and Taichi Master Bodyguard from Beijing, Fist of Legend,
Speaker 1: and all kinds of new extras for all of these. Wow,
Speaker 1: We've got audio commentaries on every single film, interviews on
Speaker 1: some that are brand new. There's dubs in here that
Speaker 1: eighty eight films did not get on their release, So
Speaker 1: Shout is going comprehensive on these. There is so many
Speaker 1: details coming in these discs, and if you love this stuff.
Speaker 1: This looks to be the one to get. I know
Speaker 1: a lot of people have lost, especially after everything I
Speaker 1: just said, a lot of confidence in shout, But they
Speaker 1: seem to be treating this line and like the Blaxploitation
Speaker 1: box set really well.
Speaker 2: Actually, what would you rather have? The something like the
Speaker 2: RoboCop cartoon or the Purple Blob.
Speaker 1: Purple Blob any day of the week, purple Blob. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is this is a damn good looking set.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a that's a must have.
Speaker 1: We got more to talk about for the Hong Kong
Speaker 1: Cinema Classics in just a second, But first June sixth,
Speaker 1: there's a blu ray coming from Universal for The Ballad
Speaker 1: of Wallace Island from twenty twenty four. Although most people
Speaker 1: are seeing it this year, I think I only played
Speaker 1: a couple of festivals. This is a Tim Key and
Speaker 1: Kerry Mulligan film that looks really great and as surprisingly
Speaker 1: really good reviews on this one. So yeah, this one
Speaker 1: I'm gonna have to check out soon. What are we
Speaker 1: laughing at the cover art?
Speaker 2: Everything about this? Wow? Okay, have you.
Speaker 1: Ever listened to Tim Key?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Have you ever heard that name in your life?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: He was great on Taskmaster. He is very very funny.
Speaker 2: What's that?
Speaker 1: Task Master is maybe the best TV show of all time.
Speaker 1: It is a British sort of like a British panel
Speaker 1: show that they take five comedians and make them do
Speaker 1: random tasks months ahead of time and then react to
Speaker 1: them in the studio. And it's brilliant. It is some
Speaker 1: of the funniest stuff I've ever seen.
Speaker 2: Never seen it all.
Speaker 1: It's on YouTube for free.
Speaker 2: And so they made this.
Speaker 1: No, but Tim Key was in a season of task Master.
Speaker 2: Oh, I say he's British.
Speaker 1: He is British.
Speaker 2: How about that?
Speaker 1: The trailer for this is pretty British. It looks very good.
Speaker 1: Waves says is it better than Faulty Towers? And honestly,
Speaker 1: if you would have asked me five years ago, I
Speaker 1: would have said, hell, no, it's better than Faulty Towers.
Speaker 2: This movie's better than Faulty Towers. No, they show task Master. Oh,
Speaker 2: she's on the new Thunderbolts Kerrie Mullig. It is Pastmaster,
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ. Oh my gosh, Olga Caralinko.
Speaker 1: Okay, but who's on third? Anyways, back to the Hong
Speaker 1: Kong Cinema Classics line. So we got some release dates,
Speaker 1: and there actually was some cover art that they put
Speaker 1: out in a video, so you can check that out.
Speaker 1: City of Fire from nineteen eighty eleven, Thank You Will
Speaker 1: coming to four K and Blu Ray on August twenty sixth,
Speaker 1: Peaking Opera Blues from nineteen eighty six coming to four
Speaker 1: K and Blu Ray on September twenty third, And they
Speaker 1: wanted to announce that they are putting some of these
Speaker 1: out in four K on digital first before they prepare
Speaker 1: for physical media, So be prepared. Hard Boiled Ring a Lamb,
Speaker 1: City on Fire, the Better Tomorrow Trilogy, The Killer, and
Speaker 1: a Chinese Ghost Story. These are all coming on four
Speaker 1: K on digital, which means they are all coming on
Speaker 1: four K physical just after this as well. This is huge.
Speaker 1: You're gonna be able to start picking these up on
Speaker 1: digital on June twenty fourth, all the way through August nineteenth.
Speaker 1: Big big deal that these titles are finally being released.
Speaker 2: I manifested this. This was in my this was in
Speaker 2: my let's let's mainke this happen this year.
Speaker 1: List, And when we found out that Shout purchased the
Speaker 1: Golden Princess Library, we were already starting to wish for
Speaker 1: stuff like this, and Shout went to work very quickly.
Speaker 1: These are going to be massive and a lot of
Speaker 1: people asking why are they doing digital first? And let's
Speaker 1: just be honest, Shout has to make their money. A
Speaker 1: lot of people that have been after these films for
Speaker 1: so long. If these are ready for digital, they got
Speaker 1: to put it out there. They'll make some money on digital,
Speaker 1: they'll make some money on physical. And that library that
Speaker 1: they did cost them a shit ton of money, you
Speaker 1: can bet, so they got to make that back. Sibitors
Speaker 1: asking could they just do a John WO box set
Speaker 1: make it easier for us? I mean, to be honest,
Speaker 1: they could, but the hard part Shout doesn't really break
Speaker 1: up box sets. So like that blaxploitation box that we'll
Speaker 1: just held up, somebody might only want one of those,
Speaker 1: and now it's locked on the box set. And for
Speaker 1: those that might only want one of the John Wu films,
Speaker 1: it would be locked in the box set. It would
Speaker 1: be nice if they gave options, but that just ain't happening.
Speaker 2: I wish were shell factory is the al gore of
Speaker 2: box sets, but keep them in a lock box set.
Speaker 2: It was a good try. Will Yeah, Well, That's why
Speaker 2: I said to al.
Speaker 1: Of fuck Florida, whoa election jokes that are twenty five
Speaker 1: years old are always fun. Aero is releasing Spawn.
Speaker 2: CGI jokes that are twenty five years older about to
Speaker 2: pop up in the chat.
Speaker 1: This is twenty eight years Come on, Willy, Oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: They're releasing Spawn at some point soon. They announced this
Speaker 1: for National Superhero Day. No details on this or anything,
Speaker 1: just that it was coming. And obviously this already has
Speaker 1: a Blu ray. This will likely be a four K release,
Speaker 1: and this is one of those things where four K
Speaker 1: on Spawn is going to do weird things because this
Speaker 1: is a very dark movie, so four K will make
Speaker 1: it look very very good there. This also has some
Speaker 1: of the worst CGI ever done, and the four K
Speaker 1: will just make that look worse because everything else will
Speaker 1: look better. And so four K format for this disc
Speaker 1: is going to be very weird, so make it look
Speaker 1: both better and worse at the same time.
Speaker 2: Which I think is I think that's the movie. I
Speaker 2: would love to see John Leguizamo do one of his
Speaker 2: one man shows in his Violator makeup from this movie. Yeah,
Speaker 2: with no explanation, just do it, my love.
Speaker 1: Oh, that would be great, Brendan says, my favorite superhero
Speaker 1: film ever.
Speaker 2: I mean, I'm not against that.
Speaker 1: Josh asking why it would be the animated series because
Speaker 1: it doesn't have a release yet. However, it's clear that
Speaker 1: it's not going to be the animated series. They've never
Speaker 1: done anything like that. It's definitely not gonna be the
Speaker 1: animated series. So yeah, definitely look forward to that if
Speaker 1: you're into spawn all twelve of you.
Speaker 2: I was talking with this theater programmer about a potential
Speaker 2: summer series of low budget superhero movies. So like Albert
Speaker 2: Pun's Captain America, Roger Corman's unreleased Fantastic Four, Spawn, the Dofflung, Grim, Punisher,
Speaker 2: blank Man, you know all that stuff. At uh, I
Speaker 2: kindly make have Doctor Mordred, which is really Doctor Strange
Speaker 2: Fulman video. Yeah, so many good.
Speaker 1: Ones that would be a fun series.
Speaker 2: Next time, maybe the Lou Frigno Halt.
Speaker 1: Like TV movies, Universal is releasing Murder, she wrote the
Speaker 1: complete series. This is going to come on sixty two
Speaker 1: Blu ray discs. Well, how do you feel about Murder?
Speaker 2: She wrote, My sister loves it. I've never seen an
Speaker 2: episode before.
Speaker 1: I actually think you would like un ironically, eat every
Speaker 1: single moment of the show and love it.
Speaker 2: Why is she Yeah, I'm probably it seems like a
Speaker 2: lot of people like it. You know. My wife was
Speaker 2: at a conference last weekend with Janet Lansbury, not like together,
Speaker 2: but they they exchanged greetings. Interesting, it's.
Speaker 1: I understood. Yeah. Murder, she wrote, is great, like literally
Speaker 1: one of the best shows of all time. It's incredible.
Speaker 1: Jessica Fletcher has to be investigated everywhere she is. People
Speaker 1: die that. That doesn't make any sense, but uh, it's
Speaker 1: it's a great show. Now seeing this, I'm really hoping
Speaker 1: we get Golden Girls soon. It would be incredible to
Speaker 1: have both of the on Blu ray sixty two discs.
Speaker 1: Is quite intimidating, though. I'm really curious to see the
Speaker 1: price on release for this. I'm betting somewhere between one
Speaker 1: hundred and twenty to one hundred.
Speaker 2: And fifty at least.
Speaker 1: And now I want to see how they're gonna store
Speaker 1: it too. I'm betting it'll just be one of the
Speaker 1: big stack boxes like a Twilight Zone. It is officially
Speaker 1: kicking in for Will and we're carrying on.
Speaker 2: About Mercier.
Speaker 1: Next up Doctor Who The War Games in Color from
Speaker 1: nineteen sixty nine is being released on Blu Ray in
Speaker 1: the US on June twenty fourth. What's hilarious is this
Speaker 1: is a mistake image. It is not a one disc set.
Speaker 1: This is likely going to be a four disc set.
Speaker 1: This is a basically a reprint of something they've already
Speaker 1: done over in the UK, and I know a lot
Speaker 1: of people hate the colorized version, so we're not gonna
Speaker 1: spend a lot of time on it. Plus, I don't
Speaker 1: think Will and I are either one of us Doctor
Speaker 1: Who's stuff.
Speaker 2: So I tried watching an episode once. I couldn't get
Speaker 2: into it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't love what I've seen.
Speaker 2: Wow, you've just lost it? Oh yes?
Speaker 1: On Doctor Who June tenth, four K Blu Ray DVD
Speaker 1: release from Universal in the US have drop from this year. Now.
Speaker 1: What's interesting about this is consistently, over the last couple
Speaker 1: of years, Universal has only been releasing Blu rays of
Speaker 1: their horror titles, even if they do well, and then
Speaker 1: releasing four K six months later. They're releasing this on
Speaker 1: four K on day one, which is a better move.
Speaker 1: I'm glad they're doing that. I hear this movie is
Speaker 1: good or bad depending on who you ask. What are
Speaker 1: you confused?
Speaker 2: But Will did it already come out in theaters? I
Speaker 2: just thought, oh, yeah, no, it's already I missed.
Speaker 1: This is a Christopher Landen film, the same guy that
Speaker 1: did Happy Death Day. It's got some features on here,
Speaker 1: including a commentary with Christopher Landon. I am very curious
Speaker 1: to see this. I thought it looked pretty damn fun.
Speaker 1: Next up, April twenty ninth, which is literally multiple days ago,
Speaker 1: there is a BDR being released by MGM a Fatal
Speaker 1: Beauty from nineteen eighty seven. This is the Tom Holland
Speaker 1: of Thinner and Fright Night fame, directing Whoopy Goldberg and
Speaker 1: Sam Elliott in a lethal drug movie. I still think
Speaker 1: that the interview I'd edited with Tom Holland on Thinner
Speaker 1: gave me the funniest moment, and it was in reference
Speaker 1: to this film, and it was all about how Whoopy Goldberg.
Speaker 1: He covered his face and said, Whoopy Goldberg really hate
Speaker 1: it's white people.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that was a fun one. Okay.
Speaker 1: Next up, Will's favorite May second, so literally tomorrow, there
Speaker 1: is a BDR being released in the US for Screamboats
Speaker 1: the Steamboat Willie public domain film. But this isn't even
Speaker 1: the best release of this, so we're gonna be talking
Speaker 1: about that in just a moment.
Speaker 2: We'll come back to that.
Speaker 1: Another one is Field of Screams, also being released tomorrow
Speaker 1: in a BDR. This is coming from Gravitas Ventures, who
Speaker 1: is just recently purchased by Shout Factory. This one looks odd.
Speaker 1: This is following the death of his grandfather, Alan Crow
Speaker 1: inherits an old farmhouse. When he and his friends arrive,
Speaker 1: they expect to find time irn chotchkes and family memories.
Speaker 1: What they don't expect to find is a living scarecrow
Speaker 1: named Billy.
Speaker 2: No. It's right over in the UK.
Speaker 1: Old Gold Media is releasing The Sweeney series one on
Speaker 1: June second. This is essentially a reprint of an old
Speaker 1: Network Blu Ray release that they had done of the
Speaker 1: first series. Now, one of the main reasons to post
Speaker 1: this is there is a rumor that the other series
Speaker 1: from The Sweeney are going to be released on Blu
Speaker 1: Ray later this year, so wanted to be able to
Speaker 1: get that out for everybody to possibly pick those up
Speaker 1: in anticipation. And yeah, that's The Sweeney, a British TV
Speaker 1: show that I've never seen.
Speaker 2: I was going to make a Sydney Sweeney joke, but
Speaker 2: it didn't cohere.
Speaker 1: Also over in the UK, Kingdom of Heaven getting a
Speaker 1: standard four K release on June ninth. Now at the moment,
Speaker 1: there is no standard release of Kingdom of Heaven announced
Speaker 1: in the US. That doesn't mean it's not going to
Speaker 1: happen eventually, because that steel book has sold very well,
Speaker 1: even though it is supposedly getting another printing here in
Speaker 1: the US. But if you just want to not fight that,
Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure Orbit is going to be carrying the
Speaker 1: standard Kingdom of Heaven, So check that out. This has
Speaker 1: all the same features, the same cuts, same everything, and
Speaker 1: same hatred for Ridley Scott from will possibly.
Speaker 2: One of two movies three three movies in my life
Speaker 2: I've ever walked out of, like couldn't finish, Colton says.
Speaker 1: The first line of the IMDb synopsis for Fatal Beauty
Speaker 1: is Rita is a tough narc cop with a wig
Speaker 1: for every occasion.
Speaker 2: Okay, moving right along.
Speaker 1: The end From twenty twenty four is getting a Blu
Speaker 1: ray and DVD release in the UK. From movie This
Speaker 1: is also being released in the US soon. We talked
Speaker 1: about this recently, so won't spend too much time on it.
Speaker 1: I hear. This is actually really great Tilda Swinton and
Speaker 1: one of my favorite discoveries from last few years. George
Speaker 1: McKay is in this, including Michael Shannon as well. Ronnie
Speaker 1: wants to know what the other two movies you walked
Speaker 1: out of our will.
Speaker 2: Peter Jackson's King Kong and when I was five, I
Speaker 2: got scared at Last Starfighter made my dad take me out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not the answer I expected. They're at all. Oh,
Speaker 1: that's hilarious. Movie Over in the UK is also releasing
Speaker 1: Bring Them Down, that just has been playing recently. This
Speaker 1: is coming on May twenty sixth. This is the Barry
Speaker 1: Kyogan and Christopher Abbot movie. I like Christophrabbit quite a bit.
Speaker 1: I want to see this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're continuing along with these one of the Pooh
Speaker 2: public domain things. All right, isn't that where Christopher Isn't
Speaker 2: that where Christopher Rabbit is? That's Christopher Robber it. No,
Speaker 2: but there's a rabbit not named Christopher Rabbit. No, Christopher
Speaker 2: Robin that's the human character. Yes, I don't know who
Speaker 2: Christopher Rabbit is. No, you just made it up. His
Speaker 2: name is Christopher Abbott. I don't know that.
Speaker 1: He's really great. So this one Screamboat screen Boat release.
Speaker 1: He got blu ray on June second over in the
Speaker 1: UK from Signature Entertainment. This is going to be a
Speaker 1: press disc. This one is going to have a featurette
Speaker 1: with David Howard Thornton, who plays Art the clown in Terrifier,
Speaker 1: Will's other favorite film.
Speaker 2: And uh yeah, I saw the first. I saw the
Speaker 2: first two.
Speaker 1: Did not expect you to have a good response to that.
Speaker 2: That that's fun.
Speaker 1: Opus has not had an announcement in the US from
Speaker 1: A twenty four yet, however, VVS Films in Canada is
Speaker 1: releasing it on June sixth. This is the ao at
Speaker 1: Aberri film that was just recently released with John Malkovich
Speaker 1: and Juliette Lewis. I've heard very divisive things about this
Speaker 1: one too, but I love ao at Abiri, so I
Speaker 1: definitely want to see this. Yeah, all right, this was
Speaker 1: the moment of consternation for a lot of people. This week.
Speaker 1: June seventeenth, four k steealbook of a little unknown film
Speaker 1: called Jaws from nineteen seventy five coming out. This is
Speaker 1: the fiftieth anniversary release of this. There will also be
Speaker 1: a standard release of this for the fiftieth anniversary. The
Speaker 1: big thing is this includes a new feature length documentary
Speaker 1: called Jaw's at fifty And this is probably the best
Speaker 1: we're going to get this film for now. This is
Speaker 1: gonna be re released many, many, many many times. That's
Speaker 1: what everybody's complaining about is, oh my god, I already
Speaker 1: have Jaws in a four K steel book. Yeah, they're
Speaker 1: probably gonna make a whole bunch of more.
Speaker 2: Four K steel books.
Speaker 1: And I had people ask if it was a new transfer. No, there,
Speaker 1: They're probably never gonna do a new four K transfer
Speaker 1: of Jaws. They have no reason to. They just did
Speaker 1: it recently and it looks incredible. So yeah, this is
Speaker 1: what we're getting for the fiftieth anniversary of Jaws.
Speaker 2: And that's that.
Speaker 1: A twenty four announced Warfare, the new film that was
Speaker 1: penned by Alex Garland, coming to four K and Blu
Speaker 1: Ray this summer. Should be shipping in a little over
Speaker 1: a month from their store directly. This is gonna have
Speaker 1: a commentary with Raymondoza, Alex Garland, and the military consultant
Speaker 1: Brian Philpott that they did. There's a making a featurette.
Speaker 1: But the big thing is they went all out. It's
Speaker 1: got dopey vision Adlbey Atmos. Looks like a pretty incredible
Speaker 1: release and very quick to disc for them. This movie.
Speaker 1: I've said devisive a lot tonight. This movie has gotten
Speaker 1: just overall pretty great reviews. Not seen this one yet,
Speaker 1: but I am into it. You're just gonna nod along
Speaker 1: with everything, got it.
Speaker 2: I don't know anything about this one.
Speaker 1: Sou as Man says, when the fuck are we getting
Speaker 1: a complete Seinfeld four K box at last fall? It
Speaker 1: already released, ass Man. Come on.
Speaker 2: July eighth on Blu rays Shutter.
Speaker 1: Shutter is releasing The Rule of Jenny Penn that just
Speaker 1: came out fairly recently. This is with John Lithgow and
Speaker 1: Jeffrey Rush. This was unfortunately mired with a little bit
Speaker 1: of me Too controversy right before the release, so it
Speaker 1: did not do super well. It sounds like, but yeah,
Speaker 1: I have not seen this. I love John Lithgow. Yeah,
Speaker 1: don't know anything else about it.
Speaker 2: There's no Christopher Rabbit, there's a Christopher Bunny.
Speaker 1: Thanks for your thorough research. May twentieth, there's an Amazon
Speaker 1: exclusive Blu ray coming from well Go USA for Hunt
Speaker 1: the Wicked from twenty twenty four. Well go consistently giving
Speaker 1: a release for a lot of these Asian films that
Speaker 1: are generally pretty great, and you you're not going to
Speaker 1: get these anywhere else, so nice to see them continue
Speaker 1: to put these out. An Amazon exclusive release is a
Speaker 1: little weird for them. Usually it's widely available.
Speaker 2: It. Oh man, will how you feelings sell through the
Speaker 2: Wicked if it's an Amazon exclusive? Yes, thank you, sir.
Speaker 2: I thought that was fine. I get it. Everybody says
Speaker 2: that I'm high on the gummy. I don't know why
Speaker 2: I'm tired, my eyes are drying out, or to move
Speaker 2: it along, understandable.
Speaker 1: July eighth, Blu Ray in the US, coming from fifth
Speaker 1: season of a Apple TV show. See this is the
Speaker 1: Jason Momoa show that they did in four K on
Speaker 1: Apple TV coming to Blu Ray on disc now. Of course,
Speaker 1: the major thing that everybody saw is, oh, this was
Speaker 1: put out by Apple TV. I bet this is going
Speaker 1: to unlock all kinds of other stuff coming to physical
Speaker 1: media that they've put out. Unfortunately, No, definitely want people
Speaker 1: to understand that this is a completely different production company.
Speaker 1: Apple TV is not releasing this fifth season is releasing this,
Speaker 1: so don't expect Napoleon or Killers of the Flower Moon.
Speaker 1: Because this is being released. There are all kinds of
Speaker 1: different production companies that have shows and movies that were
Speaker 1: released on Apple TV, and all of those have a
Speaker 1: choice to put them out on physical media if they
Speaker 1: don't have a contract stating the they can't with Apple.
Speaker 2: And it's up to them to put it out. It's
Speaker 2: not up to Apple.
Speaker 1: Apple is not putting out physical media themselves. And Will
Speaker 1: actually loves Jason Momoa because he loved the Aquaman movies.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, those things. I think. I think Momoa
Speaker 2: needs to slow it down. The minecrafts Man all right.
Speaker 1: Next up, Warner Archive on June tenth is releasing three
Speaker 1: different four packs of films. This first one is the
Speaker 1: Clark Gable Collection. It's got San Francisco, Mutiny on the Bounty,
Speaker 1: Idiot's Delight, and Wife Versus Secretary. The next one is
Speaker 1: the Elizabeth Taylor Collection. We've got Father of the Bride,
Speaker 1: Who's Afraid of Virginia, Wolf, Reflections in a Golden Eye,
Speaker 1: and the Last Time I Saw And finally, the Gary
Speaker 1: Cooper Collection with Friendly Persuasion, Sergeant York, The Hanging Tree,
Speaker 1: and Love in the Afternoon.
Speaker 2: These are the exact same discs that.
Speaker 1: Were released previously by Warner Archive, just sort of throwing
Speaker 1: them together to be more inexpensive for you to pick
Speaker 1: them all up, So a good thing.
Speaker 2: Overall.
Speaker 1: These will probably be around, I don't know, thirty five
Speaker 1: to forty bucks on movies in from their storefront. However,
Speaker 1: these will likely go on sale on Amazon from time
Speaker 1: to time for like thirty ish for four movies that
Speaker 1: are really great, and Warner Archive does great work on
Speaker 1: all these. Each of these have at least one movie
Speaker 1: that's pretty pretty incredible, so.
Speaker 2: I'm glad they're doing this. I'm a big fan of
Speaker 2: wife Verus as secretary. I think that'll move. It's hilarious.
Speaker 1: Yep, yep, yep, yep. All right, So that's Warner Archive.
Speaker 1: This one I know nothing about. July twenty ninth, Walmart
Speaker 1: is releasing a Blu Rays steal book of Viz Media's
Speaker 1: release of Chainsaw Man Volume on. This is an anime
Speaker 1: and yes, it does have a plastic sleeve that is
Speaker 1: going to be removable on this one. You can preorder
Speaker 1: this now. It is a Walmart exclusive. And again I
Speaker 1: don't knowhing about it.
Speaker 2: Remember that band Jackal, Yes, they had the singer play
Speaker 2: A played the Chainsaw and their big hit.
Speaker 1: Yes, as that says, gummies are wonderful disconnected channels. You
Speaker 1: get sponsorships from VII oh Man, Thanks Will, You're doing great.
Speaker 1: This is a big deal. Sometime in twenty twenty five,
Speaker 1: we are getting a four K in the US from
Speaker 1: Disney of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. Now, this is crazy,
Speaker 1: obviously because it was a twentieth Century Fox title. When
Speaker 1: Disney bought twenty century Fox, a lot of people thought
Speaker 1: that this was never gonna happen. For them to announce
Speaker 1: this is a pretty damn big deal.
Speaker 2: To celebrate this.
Speaker 1: They most likely are gonna do like a big steel
Speaker 1: book thing. This is getting four K theatrical run. I'm
Speaker 1: sure lots of stuff happening, but the big, big thing
Speaker 1: for us that love physical media. This was a ten
Speaker 1: month project that included meticulous digital scan and preservation process
Speaker 1: to get every frame of this correct. The restoration will
Speaker 1: feature a newly mixed Dolby Atmos audio track, and it's
Speaker 1: also going to have, for purest and longtime fans, the
Speaker 1: original mono audio, which has been fully restored as well.
Speaker 1: We don't have any other details on it. I'm hoping
Speaker 1: they do something special, get some extras in there, get
Speaker 1: some people that are still alive, get this down before
Speaker 1: they're not alive anymore. Obviously, huge, huge, huge title. This
Speaker 1: is gonna sell so many releases this year. How do
Speaker 1: you feel about Rocky Horror?
Speaker 2: Will? I ask for nothing and you shall receive it
Speaker 2: in abundance. You know, when I was young, I used
Speaker 2: to be in the you know, productions, and that always
Speaker 2: made me be rocky because I was, you know, a
Speaker 2: physical specimen at that time. But I should have been frank,
Speaker 2: you know, just get it. I get it. Never happened
Speaker 2: for me.
Speaker 1: Adam says. I think they're all alive apart from me.
Speaker 1: Love Yeah, for now, sadly, especially for some of them.
Speaker 1: It's it's getting pretty close.
Speaker 2: Geez.
Speaker 1: I'm saying, how dire I can make this? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: really hope people, especially like Tim is still coherent and everything.
Speaker 1: I love to hear him.
Speaker 2: That's my baseline for everybody. Really.
Speaker 1: I mean, Ronnie saw this at a sleepover in the
Speaker 1: sixth grade and blew her mind. Yeah, so sick of
Speaker 1: so sick of steel books as bearded film guy, Yes,
Speaker 1: I said that earlier.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, they had to butcher.
Speaker 1: Up William Tell from twenty twenty four getting a Blu
Speaker 1: Ray release in the US on May twenty seventh from
Speaker 1: Samuel Goldwyn Films. I heard this is actually pretty good.
Speaker 1: I've not seen this not I didn't watch the trailer
Speaker 1: ending yet, but I heard this is great, all right.
Speaker 1: And then August fifth, from Paramount, we were getting nineteen
Speaker 1: twenty three Season two, which I had no idea this existed,
Speaker 1: and the fact that it stars Harrison Ford and Helen
Speaker 1: Mirren in a Yellowstone spinoff show is.
Speaker 2: Crazy to me. I don't get it. Yeah, they must
Speaker 2: be doing very well. I don't know. I don't know
Speaker 2: who watches it. They say they're hits, but.
Speaker 1: A lot of people must. All right, are we ready
Speaker 1: for some MOCN discussion because there is quite a lot
Speaker 1: to talk about tonight.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: This first off, I saw a lot of people confused.
Speaker 1: I know, vinegar syndrome keeps giving more and more popular,
Speaker 1: which is crazy people expecting this to be a sale.
Speaker 1: This is not a sale. This is a pre order
Speaker 1: of the titles releasing during the sale this weekend, and
Speaker 1: they're slightly discounted compared to what they're gonna cost.
Speaker 2: At the end of the month.
Speaker 1: But Memorial Day weekend, this is three weekends from tonight,
Speaker 1: actually is when the sale starts. That's when everything that
Speaker 1: is older than like six months will be discounted to
Speaker 1: fifty percent off of the MSRP.
Speaker 2: Not this weekend.
Speaker 1: You're not going to find sales prices on those. But
Speaker 1: the big thing is all of these titles are going
Speaker 1: to be shipping with those sale purchases, and we're going
Speaker 1: to be talking about all of those tonight. If you
Speaker 1: preorder these now, you get free shipping during the halfway
Speaker 1: to Black Friday sale. If you don't put in an order,
Speaker 1: they do charge shipping during that. But let's break it
Speaker 1: down because it's a very mainstream sort of set of
Speaker 1: announcements this time, which I understand a lot of people
Speaker 1: complaining about today. I also just think that it's kind
Speaker 1: of crazy that we're getting these great releases. We got
Speaker 1: a lot to cover. So first off is The Golden Child.
Speaker 1: This is the Murphy almost Big Trouble in Little China
Speaker 1: type of film from nineteen eighty six, released on four
Speaker 1: K here in the US from Vinegar Syndrome. This is
Speaker 1: their next VSU. The VSU is that big magnet box
Speaker 1: that they do is the same release that we got
Speaker 1: for like Beast Master and all of those others. Of course,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be a two disc set. You got
Speaker 1: the four K disc and the Blu Ray disc. This
Speaker 1: is gonna have a commentary with Kelly Goodner and Jim hemphl.
Speaker 1: There's a bunch of new interviews on this, some archival
Speaker 1: pieces as well. Now, this one was released previously on
Speaker 1: Blu Ray fairly recently from Paramount as part of their
Speaker 1: Paramount Presents line. So I know a lot of people
Speaker 1: picked it up for that, but this is you know,
Speaker 1: this is this is kind of an expensive one. This
Speaker 1: is one of those that's up for sale for like
Speaker 1: fifty bucks. How do you feel about the Golden Child?
Speaker 2: Have you seen this one? Will? I saw it once
Speaker 2: when I was a kid and didn't think anything of it.
Speaker 2: But you know, Michael Ritchie is a real filmmaker, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Prime Cut is awesome. Yeah, I wouldn't I wouldn't mind
Speaker 2: seeing it again. I actually I didn't realize it was VSU.
Speaker 2: I thought it was part of the subscription. I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I'm gonna buy it though, I
Speaker 2: don't think I am.
Speaker 1: I love Eddie Murphy. This is just not one of
Speaker 1: his better movies, in my opinion.
Speaker 2: I think I need to see it first, see it again.
Speaker 2: First I saw it's.
Speaker 1: A fun cast, you know, James Hang, Charles Dance.
Speaker 2: It's it is.
Speaker 1: It is sort of very very similar to Big Trouble
Speaker 1: in a Little China. It's just nowhere near as good.
Speaker 1: Big Trouble is fantastic. And this is odd because I
Speaker 1: think this, if I remember the story goes John Carpenter
Speaker 1: almost directed this or something like that. So and then
Speaker 1: this came out like six months away from Big Trouble.
Speaker 1: Is this his first non R rated film? Actually? I
Speaker 1: had not thought about that. Yeah, probably is nineteen eighty six.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Probably.
Speaker 1: Jake Ryans's music from Rat and a Wet T Shirt
Speaker 1: scene has me sold. Uh, it's not R rated, so
Speaker 1: don't expect too much from that. Colton said that I
Speaker 1: was huh oh back then.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Colton says, I was shocked because I didn't know people
Speaker 1: liked this. I saw as a kid and didn't like
Speaker 1: it at all. Yeah, I from the response today, I
Speaker 1: don't know how many people actually do like this. It
Speaker 1: seems like a handful of people are into it, but
Speaker 1: most people are not vary into this title.
Speaker 2: But that's the thing.
Speaker 1: A lot of people saw this as a kid, which
Speaker 1: vs use other than like Showgirls and six String Samurai
Speaker 1: and Southern Comfort. I guess a lot of them have
Speaker 1: been kind of like films that people are nostalgic about
Speaker 1: when they saw his kids. Yeah, this is this is
Speaker 1: getting eight thousand of the limited editions sold for this title.
Speaker 1: I'm curious to see how this goes. It could sell
Speaker 1: well for them, it could be a massive flop. But
Speaker 1: either way, I mean, there's no denying it's kind of tie.
Speaker 1: It's kind of wild to see Vinegar Syndrome start with
Speaker 1: a freaking Herschel Gordon Lewis porn and now they're putting
Speaker 1: out Eddie Murphy. I was gonna say comedies, but this
Speaker 1: movie isn't very funny.
Speaker 2: Is very porny. That's true.
Speaker 1: Big Eddie Murphy title, Well it's not even a big
Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy title. But you know, Eddie Murphy is not
Speaker 1: the type of person that people expected. So yeah, this
Speaker 1: is a very mainstream film compared to what they've done previously. Obviously,
Speaker 1: stuff like The Keep was a big title and They've
Speaker 1: done some other stuff that are very mainstream, but an
Speaker 1: Eddie Murphy action fantasy comedy is probably not what a
Speaker 1: lot of people on their bingo cards for vinegar syndrome.
Speaker 2: How do you fee about Eddie Murphy as a whole man?
Speaker 1: He's funny, top notch commentary tonight there, No.
Speaker 2: I mean, how do you feel about Eddie Murphy? You
Speaker 2: got a favorite anything you want to share? I think
Speaker 2: he's achieved a great deal. Cool.
Speaker 1: Let's go to our next one from somebody else that
Speaker 1: has achieved a great deal. Billy Harmpkins Jade from nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety five getting a four K release. Now, this one
Speaker 1: is again a pretty big deal because not only is
Speaker 1: it freaking but they are getting a lot on this.
Speaker 1: We've got newly scanned restored in four K from the OCN,
Speaker 1: both the ninety five minute theatrical cut and the one
Speaker 1: and seven minute director's cut. That is the big deal.
Speaker 1: The director's cut has not been seen in quite some time.
Speaker 1: We got a commentary with Jennifer Mormon on the theatrical.
Speaker 1: We've got an interview with the screenwriter on here. We've
Speaker 1: got a featurette with Aggie Haas and the assistant editor
Speaker 1: Darren Navarro, some other interviews, but Jade, like this is
Speaker 1: one that people have been guessing for a while was
Speaker 1: going to be coming from vinegar Syndrome. Not sure where
Speaker 1: they were getting that, but it is here. Finally, you
Speaker 1: seemed excited about Jade.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that for the first time. Last year
Speaker 2: the Criterion Collection had a erotic thriller series and I
Speaker 2: watched Jade, and erotic, I'd say it is, but it
Speaker 2: was of that time, you know, and very trashy. You
Speaker 2: you mentioned interview with the screenwriter. That's Joe Estrahaus, the
Speaker 2: king of trashy scripts.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, this is this is one that again
Speaker 1: seems to be kind of device. A lot of people
Speaker 1: very happy that this is getting a nice release, and
Speaker 1: then some other people just saying this movie is terrible.
Speaker 1: I personally, I've still never seen Jade, never really had
Speaker 1: the opportunity to watch it. But this is one that
Speaker 1: I think is going to make quite a few people
Speaker 1: happy that they can get more Freedkin. And that's that's
Speaker 1: the big thing is it's a pretty huge director and
Speaker 1: they're able to get that, So that's a that's a
Speaker 1: big deal.
Speaker 2: Always fun well, you know what it's time for It's
Speaker 2: time for my favorite excitement of the day. I think
Speaker 2: we need to make some sort of rodent to make
Speaker 2: a high pitched.
Speaker 1: Sound well, to discuss dirty work. I figured it we
Speaker 1: should probably have a special guest come on, and that
Speaker 1: is mister Mike Hunchback of the legendary punk band Screeching Weasel. Hello,
Speaker 1: Hi guys, hey man doing Mike.
Speaker 5: Doing very well, So happy to be here, guys, thank
Speaker 5: you for having me.
Speaker 1: Uh, dirty work? Tell us why you're here to talk
Speaker 1: about dirty Work?
Speaker 5: Well, I had the pleasure of doing the special features,
Speaker 5: and while I feel I am very qualified for that job.
Speaker 5: There was an awesome little string of coincidences that happened
Speaker 5: years ago. I met and you know, hung out with
Speaker 5: for a few minutes, Frank Sebastiano, the co writer of
Speaker 5: Dirty Work, the guy whose idea Dirty Work was. He
Speaker 5: was also an SNL writer. He was really specifically one
Speaker 5: of the writers for Weekend Update when Norm was when
Speaker 5: Norm was hosting it. And I have dabbled in you know,
Speaker 5: film screenings and stuff over the years, and I love
Speaker 5: dirty work. Obsessive Norm MacDonald fan, which we should talk
Speaker 5: about later. We should get into Norm specifically later, but
Speaker 5: I wanted to do a screening of Dirty Work, and
Speaker 5: I asked Frank years after having met at him, and
Speaker 5: he said that sounds like a cool idea and ended
Speaker 5: up getting some assistance well, and we were gonna screen
Speaker 5: Dirty Work and Frank's other film, beer League, and wanted
Speaker 5: to do him both on thirty five. Located a thirty
Speaker 5: five print of Dirty Work and Frank had a thirty
Speaker 5: five millimeter print of beer League. Needed a friend to
Speaker 5: check out that print to see if it was showable.
Speaker 5: He hadn't looked at it in many years, and called
Speaker 5: Joe Rubin, who lived like really close to where Frank lives.
Speaker 5: And Joe looked at it as a favor, which was
Speaker 5: just He's the best guy, super super sweet thing to do.
Speaker 5: And we had the screening and it was an awesome night, awesome,
Speaker 5: awesome night. I thought the story was going to end there.
Speaker 5: Two weeks later, Joe calls me up and goes, you know,
Speaker 5: don't tell anybody this because we don't have it yet,
Speaker 5: but we might be doing Dirty Work at Vinegar Syndrome.
Speaker 5: Would you want to do some special features? And I
Speaker 5: said absolutely, so I got lucky on that one again
Speaker 5: I think I'm qualified, But that's hilarious. I got very lucky,
Speaker 5: you know, just the timing of that.
Speaker 1: So a lot of people got to wonder, because you know,
Speaker 1: you are in a small band called Screeching Weasel, how
Speaker 1: do you get into special features like this? Is this
Speaker 1: is a very different thing.
Speaker 5: Obviously it is, although you know, it's so funny because
Speaker 5: to me it makes a lot of sense. Ben the
Speaker 5: you know, the front man of Screeching Weasel, is such
Speaker 5: a movie nerd and has always loved movies. In fact,
Speaker 5: I don't think that there's a small chance that my
Speaker 5: interest and enjoyment in talking about movies is what helped
Speaker 5: get me in the band anyway, because I used to
Speaker 5: be in a band called night Birds, and that was
Speaker 5: the band that Ben heard before he asked me to
Speaker 5: play with him. There's a lot of movie songs, you know.
Speaker 5: We've got pictures with Belile, the original Belile that Frank
Speaker 5: Hennelatter still has. We've got we had Frank, a old
Speaker 5: friend of mine, you know, take Blile out to take
Speaker 5: a band picture with and you know, songs about you know,
Speaker 5: all sorts of things, thriller. They call her one Eye. Yeah,
Speaker 5: just and I think that. I think that he was like, Oh,
Speaker 5: this guy's into movies too, so maybe maybe he'll work.
Speaker 1: That's pretty awesome. And I mean, you're you're working on
Speaker 1: a handful of releases some other stuff that you can't
Speaker 1: talk about yet. But what all we're able to get
Speaker 1: for dirty Work because we got we got to talk
Speaker 1: about the story behind what what the release is. But
Speaker 1: just the amount of extras, first of all, is crazy.
Speaker 2: On that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, the amount of extras is crazy. And so I
Speaker 5: found a lifelong friend. Pretty much from the first time
Speaker 5: I talked to Oscar Basher. He basically Oscar and I
Speaker 5: we found each other on this project. Obviously, Oscar already
Speaker 5: works for Beneger Syndrome, and we had one conversation, you know,
Speaker 5: Joe sort of brought me on to it and he
Speaker 5: was like, now you got to talk to Oscar. Talk
Speaker 5: to Oscar. And the first thing we say is we're
Speaker 5: gonna find in this lost cut, Right, there's nothing that's
Speaker 5: gonna stop us if we've got this opportunity, and they're
Speaker 5: going into the MGM vault. We're figuring this thing out.
Speaker 5: I am pretty sure both of us knew that it
Speaker 5: was a small percentage chance, but We wanted to just
Speaker 5: have faith. We wanted to just believe that that's what
Speaker 5: we were going to be able to do. And I
Speaker 5: cannot believe it. But it's a long string of circumstances
Speaker 5: that we can get into if you want. But we
Speaker 5: did it. You know the thing that if you're a
Speaker 5: Dirty Work fan and a NORM fan, you love the movie,
Speaker 5: but you're watching a movie that is the only version
Speaker 5: that you have, knowing that there was this other thing
Speaker 5: that's the real movie. And we actually did it. Oscar, Joe,
Speaker 5: Vinegar Syndrome and some of the especially Frank Sebastiano as
Speaker 5: far as the Dirty Work team, they did it. They
Speaker 5: absolutely did it. Yeah, it's we have it.
Speaker 2: It's on the disc.
Speaker 1: Vinigersentram released a video today with Oscar and Curtis and
Speaker 1: Joe Spastiano talking about all of like taking time coded
Speaker 1: notes from dailies and being able to splice in things literally,
Speaker 1: Vinegar Syndrome taking the time and resources to build a
Speaker 1: film that did not exist. We got a comment just
Speaker 1: now that's saying IMDb doesn't even have that extended cut
Speaker 1: a is being listed as real because it wasn't. It
Speaker 1: wasn't was It was shown once theatrically, and because of
Speaker 1: that they were able to cobble this together and make
Speaker 1: it work.
Speaker 5: And and it wasn't shown theatrically in the traditional sense.
Speaker 5: It was a previous screening. It was just a previous screening.
Speaker 5: And one of the things that I, I mean, it's
Speaker 5: like we all know about previous screenings, but I didn't
Speaker 5: realize how much for comedy in this era of this
Speaker 5: kind of budget, it was like crazy the amount of
Speaker 5: test screenings that a movie can get. And so, you know,
Speaker 5: it was one of those things where Norm is hot,
Speaker 5: let this guy do anything he wants, and then Hollywood
Speaker 5: moves so fast that by the time the studio starts
Speaker 5: to get you know, other ideas about wanting to make
Speaker 5: wanting to sell more tickets, that was out of their
Speaker 5: hands in how to cut it, you know. So but
Speaker 5: they did get that previous screening and they all there's
Speaker 5: like an infamous phone call. I remember that that Frank
Speaker 5: told me about where they like sag it Norm Frank
Speaker 5: Fred they were all like, we got it. That's the movie.
Speaker 5: We figured it out. It's perfect quote perfect, you know,
Speaker 5: and that is that is what has been reconstructed.
Speaker 2: Amazing.
Speaker 1: This is of course, really really great to see, but
Speaker 1: also very sad and timely that Norm and Bob could
Speaker 1: not be here to participate, both within just a handful
Speaker 1: of years that passing right before this was able to happen.
Speaker 1: The extras on this what can people expect?
Speaker 5: The the the extras? I mean, we all buy a
Speaker 5: lot of discs, right and you like to see that
Speaker 5: long list of stuff in there. And I you know,
Speaker 5: I'll put on many discs that I get, and I'm
Speaker 5: very happy that there's all of those special features on there.
Speaker 5: But I am shocked at the solid content of every
Speaker 5: single special feature that we have on this disc. You
Speaker 5: know what I mean? This movie meant a lot to
Speaker 5: the people that were on. I mean, the one that
Speaker 5: sticks out right in the front of my mind is Unipark,
Speaker 5: you know, who plays the street worker that bid off
Speaker 5: Chris Farley's nose, right, And then they find love or
Speaker 5: they're unhappy love, but they find each other and they
Speaker 5: and they and they're happy to be together again. We
Speaker 5: were I'll be frank, you know what I mean. I
Speaker 5: I'm a big fan of crude, funny comedy. I love
Speaker 5: you know, S and L and National Lampoon and all
Speaker 5: this stuff and it doesn't bother me. And I think
Speaker 5: that for a lot of people, they all accept it
Speaker 5: as comedy. But you know, if you're a working actor,
Speaker 5: and if you're a working Asian actor, maybe you think
Speaker 5: some of those jokes just aren't as funny as they
Speaker 5: as they used to be. And so I I, you know,
Speaker 5: Oscar reached out to her. I reached out to her,
Speaker 5: and we just kept on reaching out, and literally after
Speaker 5: we wrapped Special Features, she said, I've got some time
Speaker 5: I would talk. And I thought she didn't want to
Speaker 5: talk because it was like, I don't know if I
Speaker 5: want to associate myself. I'm still trying to work a lot,
Speaker 5: you know, and that's in bad taste now or something
Speaker 5: like that. Yeah, but talking to her, I mean I
Speaker 5: literally had a tear in my eye because she was like,
Speaker 5: you know, this was so much fun to work on.
Speaker 5: You know, yeah, it was crass and crude, but we
Speaker 5: were cracking up and everybody was so just loved being
Speaker 5: around each other. She describes it as like this is
Speaker 5: like kids going into a backyard and getting crazy and
Speaker 5: making a movie, you know, like that kind of energy.
Speaker 5: So the a joyful, juvenile energy and not a nasty,
Speaker 5: mean or sort of hateful energy to it, you know.
Speaker 5: And so there's I mean everybody, I mean the assistant editor,
Speaker 5: you know, Kevin Farley's stories, we got I mean Fred Woolf,
Speaker 5: Frank Sebastiano, like the it's the content. You will not
Speaker 5: be able to flip through the special feature. You're gonna
Speaker 5: put one on and you're gonna have to see the
Speaker 5: end of it because because you're gonna be enraptured. That's
Speaker 5: a high bar.
Speaker 1: You know, two commentaries, one of which is moderated by
Speaker 1: you on the theatrical cuts. And then we've got the
Speaker 1: big thing, a sixty three minute newly produced making of
Speaker 1: documentary with a whole bunch of interviews called note to sef,
Speaker 1: Note to self doing dirty work. This is We've already
Speaker 1: got somebody saying in the chat that this is maybe
Speaker 1: the most loaded disc of the year so far, and
Speaker 1: for newly produced special features. This was the announcement of
Speaker 1: the week the month by far. For me, I adore
Speaker 1: this movie. I've always loved Norman Bob and to be
Speaker 1: able to see this together is so incredible for a
Speaker 1: movie like this.
Speaker 5: Yeah, no, it really is, man, I uh yeah, I
Speaker 5: I It's funny that I worked on it because I'm
Speaker 5: like the number one fan for this, you know what
Speaker 5: I mean. If this was if this was I was
Speaker 5: hearing about this today, I would just be through the roof.
Speaker 5: And I can't believe I got the opportunity to actually
Speaker 5: help with the thing.
Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, yeah, Uh well, Screeching Weasel. Whyn't you
Speaker 1: tell people what you do for Screeching Weasel on what's
Speaker 1: coming up?
Speaker 5: I play guitar actually, if you're in the San Francisco area,
Speaker 5: were playing tomorrow night. Uh and and what you know,
Speaker 5: check out check out the check out the band's website
Speaker 5: and the and the socials because we haven't played you know,
Speaker 5: I I'm bad at Matt, but it might have been
Speaker 5: you know, because of COVID and stuff. It was like
Speaker 5: six ended up being like six years, you know. And
Speaker 5: so we just played some shows last month and it
Speaker 5: feels super good to be back. We've got an awesome
Speaker 5: new lead guitar player, Ginger, who does a lot of
Speaker 5: a lot of stuff with the Queers, plays with them
Speaker 5: a lot. It's playing with the Dwarves. He's one of
Speaker 5: those guys like everybody everybody wants this guy he's super good.
Speaker 5: And uh yeah, we've got shows coming up almost every month,
Speaker 5: you know, for throughout the summer. Yeah, so I'm excited.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm so honored that you were able to come
Speaker 1: on here and talk about Dirty Work. This is one
Speaker 1: of my favorite movies ever. I've loved this, this this stuff.
Speaker 1: For god, I don't even know the first time I
Speaker 1: watched it now, but it's do you have a long
Speaker 1: history with it?
Speaker 2: Is that?
Speaker 1: Was that a movie that you've loved from the beginning?
Speaker 5: It is? I mean to me? I I also also
Speaker 5: I don't know the format too much. I don't want
Speaker 5: to go on too long.
Speaker 1: So people want to hear from you.
Speaker 5: I gotta tell you. Man like to me, Norm is
Speaker 5: I I love stand up comedy. I love it as
Speaker 5: a very specific art form. I think of somebody like
Speaker 5: Richard pryor obviously Carlin, you know, I think of Lenny Bruce.
Speaker 5: I think of these guys that really took it into
Speaker 5: an arena where you're doing something different. You know, it's
Speaker 5: not just spoken word, it's not just comedy, it's stand up,
Speaker 5: you know. And I think that Norm is one of
Speaker 5: our great recent examples of somebody that is singular in
Speaker 5: that world, and I think a lot, and I thought
Speaker 5: a lot about, you know, long before ever getting to
Speaker 5: work on this disc. I thought a lot about why
Speaker 5: that is we say that it's often said that people
Speaker 5: are the biggest their favorite SNL cast is the cast
Speaker 5: from when they're like fifteen, you know. So for me
Speaker 5: that is that's a Norm cast. And I was lucky
Speaker 5: enough to actually go to SNL a couple of times
Speaker 5: in my life. The first time I did, Norm was
Speaker 5: the host of Weekend Updates. So in high school I
Speaker 5: saw him do Weekend Update, you know.
Speaker 2: But at that.
Speaker 5: Time, you are in general, growing out of being a
Speaker 5: kid and getting to do whatever you want into feeling
Speaker 5: the responsibility of adulthood, but also being more conscious about
Speaker 5: how bad of a place the world is, about how
Speaker 5: much stress there is about everything that you see on
Speaker 5: the news, you know what I mean. So Norm, to
Speaker 5: me is a guy that he never wanted to hold
Speaker 5: back when it came down to if people are going
Speaker 5: to be so affected by the negativity of the world,
Speaker 5: we have to have no boundaries and how crazy are
Speaker 5: out there where you're going to get and so the
Speaker 5: things that he would talk about a lot of for instance,
Speaker 5: there's you know, jokes in the movie even that get
Speaker 5: censored that I don't want to spoil it too much,
Speaker 5: but there's a scene about where they go to where
Speaker 5: they get where they go to jail, and they're talking
Speaker 5: about you know what happens that guy's in jail, right,
Speaker 5: and you know that's scene as a very bad taste
Speaker 5: joke to For instance, my parents didn't like Norm, you
Speaker 5: know what I mean. But when you're fifteen, I think
Speaker 5: that you're conscious about even things that are that intense,
Speaker 5: and you want to be able to laugh about them
Speaker 5: instead of be afraid of them or instead of like
Speaker 5: power from the world, you know, you want to just
Speaker 5: be as crazy as possible and as goofy as possible.
Speaker 5: And I think that Norm, where some people sort of
Speaker 5: said his comedy was nasty or negative, I just think
Speaker 5: he was just cathartic and it's sort of exercising like
Speaker 5: the crap that the world stuffs down our throats, you know.
Speaker 5: I mean, that's what his stand up really would do.
Speaker 5: We would talk about the death of his father and
Speaker 5: managed to make it funny. I mean, there's one of
Speaker 5: the bits in his last big stand up special. I
Speaker 5: think it was that is only about a woman that's
Speaker 5: he sees on the news that gets kidnapped and will
Speaker 5: they find her? Which is like the darkest, most sad
Speaker 5: thing you can ever think. But he finds a way
Speaker 5: to let us all like laugh and release the pressure
Speaker 5: that we feel about those things. You know, he doesn't
Speaker 5: get enough credit for that. You know, people geese sandwiches,
Speaker 5: man Gee sandwiches. You know they're good. You know, I'd
Speaker 5: get a van fill it with Geez sandwiches exactly.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 5: But that's that's brilliant, you know, that really is. And
Speaker 5: that's not like something that anybody did before him, I
Speaker 5: think either, you know, yeah, so Norm, you know, there's
Speaker 5: the great quote. I actually got to talk to Lorie
Speaker 5: Joe Hoachstrom a little bit, and Norm has attributed this
Speaker 5: quote to her. But I've also read this quote being
Speaker 5: from Norm, and that quote is when I you know,
Speaker 5: when he's doing weekend Update or when he was doing
Speaker 5: his thing period. It seems like he did not want
Speaker 5: to hear applause. He wanted to hear laughter because applause
Speaker 5: is voluntary. Laughter is involuntary. You know, somebody is applauding,
Speaker 5: it's like they agree with your opinion. But if they're laughing,
Speaker 5: it's because something real just happened and they're out of control.
Speaker 5: They don't have control over that, you know.
Speaker 1: Norm is the heart and soul of this movie for
Speaker 1: anybody that's never seen it.
Speaker 2: And the other big thing is this is.
Speaker 1: Bob Sagett's only directorial film, and to not have him
Speaker 1: be able to speak on that is hard. I imagine
Speaker 1: that he would have a lot of interesting things to
Speaker 1: say about this, especially now looking back on it so
Speaker 1: many years later. But yeah, I mean, you know, talking
Speaker 1: about crass stand up, Bob was crass on purpose to
Speaker 1: go just full house image and Bob is amazing.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I would verage everyone to watch The Aristocrats. If you
Speaker 5: haven't seen that, you know Bob's in there, and you
Speaker 5: know that guy was. He was a real deal stand
Speaker 5: up too.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 5: He did the work. Man, He had a whole career
Speaker 5: besides the TV stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, literally died doing that. That's the sad thing. Yeah, Well,
Speaker 1: anything else you want to shout out on the special
Speaker 1: features or anything that looking back on made this an
Speaker 1: extra special one for you.
Speaker 5: Man, I could probably go on forever about it, So
Speaker 5: I'll call it. I'll call it there that.
Speaker 1: That's plenty for me, Mike, this has been incredible. I
Speaker 1: as somebody that's been immersed on the music scene for
Speaker 1: many years, I appreciate what you do, and as somebody
Speaker 1: that loves physical media, you're doing it on two different sides.
Speaker 2: So I just can't.
Speaker 1: Believe that work like this is going to be seen
Speaker 1: in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: It's amazing.
Speaker 5: Thanks a lot, Thanks so much for having me, Mike.
Speaker 1: Be safe, have a good show tomorrow night, and you
Speaker 1: and I will talk to bye guys.
Speaker 2: See you.
Speaker 1: Well that was crazy. Yeah, I had a special guest
Speaker 1: in a while.
Speaker 2: I was glad to get to have that back and forth.
Speaker 1: You've been a little out of it for the last
Speaker 1: hour or so, so I get it. I Oh, yes,
Speaker 1: I have people texting me.
Speaker 2: About Man, I'm tired. Okay, this is the this is
Speaker 2: what happens when I I don't have my special fermented
Speaker 2: grape juice.
Speaker 1: So dirty work. This is an slip box release. This
Speaker 1: is the art on the slip box. There is a
Speaker 1: slip cover on the inside of this. And yeah, like
Speaker 1: Mike was saying, we've got the eighty two minute theatrical cut,
Speaker 1: eighty three minute dirtier cut now that dirtier cut. It's
Speaker 1: not just one minute of extra stuff. There's alternate takes
Speaker 1: and items that were in there that were censored and
Speaker 1: completely changed for the theatrical, So it's not just an
Speaker 1: extra minute. You're getting a lot of other stuff in
Speaker 1: this interviews like crazy. They got pretty much everybody that
Speaker 1: they could for this thing, and then on top of that,
Speaker 1: the full edited together superdocumentary on this huge release. Will
Speaker 1: I know you haven't had much to say about Dirty
Speaker 1: Work yet. I know you love this movie. Tell us
Speaker 1: about it.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, I'm a big fan of norm. This
Speaker 2: is another movie I saw alone in the theater. It's
Speaker 2: a total flop.
Speaker 1: And MGM really screwed this film.
Speaker 2: It really feel like it came out at the exact
Speaker 2: same time as I Know what you did last summer?
Speaker 2: Didn't it that eight? Yeah?
Speaker 1: That sounds about it.
Speaker 2: I feel like I feel like I did a double
Speaker 2: feature of these movies in one day, and one movie
Speaker 2: had a ton of people in there, one movie didn't.
Speaker 2: But the just the I don't know how many people
Speaker 2: have watched Norms sitcom which was alternately called The Norm
Speaker 2: Show and then just Norm Yeah, which ran for three seasons.
Speaker 2: On ABC. It's quite good, Laurie Metcalf. It's really well
Speaker 2: and really funny, and the movie kind of has that
Speaker 2: combination of, you know, this is like a nineties SNL
Speaker 2: Star SAand Lore esque type of dumb plot thing with
Speaker 2: the norm like Zingers, you know, drive Zingers, and it's
Speaker 2: just so great and bizarre. I will say, I don't
Speaker 2: think I've ever cared enough to talk about a slipcover.
Speaker 2: But I'm a little disappointed, more than a little disappointed
Speaker 2: in slipcover. Why is it not a hand holding a fish?
Speaker 2: That's the That's like the centrul image of the next Hold.
Speaker 1: On, let me let me pull it up in another tab.
Speaker 1: This again, that's the slip box. The slip cover on
Speaker 1: the inside is completely different.
Speaker 2: That's not a hand holding the fish. Where is it?
Speaker 2: If it is, then I'm fine, Oh it is Okay,
Speaker 2: Well that should be. I would prefer the joke would
Speaker 2: work so much better if the Harriet got on the inside.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I I completely agree. This is this is the
Speaker 1: slip cover on the inside.
Speaker 2: Ah, they messed it up, but anyway, Yeah, that's that
Speaker 2: should be the the image. But yeah, this is a
Speaker 2: this may think you know, Mike talked about it ad nauseum,
Speaker 2: so I don't want to repeat it. I'm a norm
Speaker 2: super fan, and I can't believe that Artie is the
Speaker 2: one who survived.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's kind of the only glaring omission from this.
Speaker 1: Artie has been sort of m i A for a while,
Speaker 1: so he is not in any of the bonus features
Speaker 1: for this.
Speaker 2: I'm too bad, because it'd be nice to hear from him. No.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I love this movie. I shocked that we're getting
Speaker 1: this as part of the Vinegar Syndrome subscription. It doesn't
Speaker 1: feel like a Vinegar Syndrome type film, but at the
Speaker 1: same time, like, well, the process behind what they just
Speaker 1: did is literally the Vinegar Syndrome process. That's that's the
Speaker 1: work that they do.
Speaker 2: I love that. Yeah, this is Anybody who likes Vineger
Speaker 2: Syndrome stuff probably also likes snorms, so I agree. There.
Speaker 1: Next up Cinematograph. Their next release is Swimming in Cambodia,
Speaker 1: coming on Blu Ray. This is from nineteen eighty seven.
Speaker 1: You can pre order this now. Spaulding Gray spent eight
Speaker 1: weeks in Asia on rolling Jaffe's The Killing Fields and
Speaker 1: then made this to tell a story. This is directed
Speaker 1: by Jonathan Demi. We had a new commentary by Scout Deafoya,
Speaker 1: you know that name, some new interviews including with Roland
Speaker 1: Joffey and a handful of others.
Speaker 2: But how do you feel about this one? Will Man?
Speaker 2: You know, I've always had a discomfort with monologusts. I
Speaker 2: just can't imagine why anyone would want to listen to
Speaker 2: some guy talk for hours and hours an hour.
Speaker 1: So how's that last audio commentary you did?
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, this will be a nice companion with those
Speaker 2: Criterion releases of the others Spawling Gray things. And let
Speaker 2: me tell you, if there's anybody on this earth who
Speaker 2: could out talk Spawling Gray, would fan duel parlay Scout
Speaker 2: Tafoya as that person?
Speaker 1: Oh man, that was really funny, Scott.
Speaker 2: Uh, he's this week?
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, Scout's got a lot of things going on
Speaker 1: for sure. Then, of course, since it's the flash pre order,
Speaker 1: there are two titles coming from Vinegar Syndrome that we
Speaker 1: don't know yet. These are mystery titles. They will be
Speaker 1: revealed over the Memorial Day weekend and you can buy
Speaker 1: them then, uh and know what they are. Of course,
Speaker 1: they'll be like a couple dollars more, or you can
Speaker 1: pre order them now without knowing if you're just like
Speaker 1: happy with investing in the v VS ecosystem. But yeah,
Speaker 1: if if you are curious that they have multiple different
Speaker 1: like bundle options to choose from right now. But some hints,
Speaker 1: so we've got this says we've got a set of
Speaker 1: terrifying treats that'll be perfect additions to your library. With
Speaker 1: the world four k UHD debut of two horror gems,
Speaker 1: one a brooding and atmospheric masterpiece from the seventies and
Speaker 1: the other a grim and gruesome early nineties classic by
Speaker 1: an tour of the Macabre. VS has newly and exclusively
Speaker 1: restored both for their stunning UHD debuts. Now, the fact
Speaker 1: that they say UHD debuts that means they've probably been
Speaker 1: out on DVD, Blu ray before, so they're probably not
Speaker 1: new to disc or anything like that. But they sound
Speaker 1: like they're gonna be bigger titles than we usually get
Speaker 1: in the mystery titles, although they've kind of set that
Speaker 1: up in the recent years. Anyways, I think exis Ends
Speaker 1: was one of the mystery titles, So yeah, any thoughts
Speaker 1: on what those could be?
Speaker 2: Mister William.
Speaker 1: Masterpiece from the seventies that's brooding, an atmospheric and then
Speaker 1: grim and gruesome early nineties by an A Tour.
Speaker 2: Of the Macabre. Ow. I don't know. I never guessed those,
Speaker 2: all right, I you know, people, I don't know. Do
Speaker 2: we agree on who's not Tour of the Macabre?
Speaker 1: That's a good question. Who wrote the copy?
Speaker 2: Was this one? Joe Rubin?
Speaker 1: Does he have a.
Speaker 2: Completely different Yeah?
Speaker 6: You know?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Anyway, those are the mystery titles. That's well, I
Speaker 2: guess you you probably know, don't you know?
Speaker 1: These are the mystery titles. There are more things being announced.
Speaker 1: There's another cinematograph coming, there's a vs A trilogy coming,
Speaker 1: there is a VSL coming. Uh oh, and there's a
Speaker 1: Degausser title coming as well. There's a whole lot being
Speaker 1: announced at the end of this month. Yeah, good luck.

Speaker 1: Of course, that night, when it goes live, I will
Speaker 1: be here streaming with Celeste Lecabra and Jeremy Long once again,
Speaker 1: but more Weekend Thursday Night Reconnected. Wow, all right, time
Speaker 1: partner labels. Yep, what's a poll? Woke up a little
Speaker 1: late this morning. We got a lot of people from
Speaker 1: over in Europe right now joining up. So next up
Speaker 1: this These first three I think are all from Film Movement.
Speaker 1: This first one is A Life in Dirty Movies from
Speaker 1: twenty thirteen. This is the slipcover art on this one.
Speaker 1: This is a love story about legendary sexploitation director Joe Sarno.
Speaker 1: Phil Movement has done a lot of Joe Sarno stuff before.
Speaker 1: I'm kind of hopeful now that they're doing this, maybe
Speaker 1: they're going to re release some of those out of
Speaker 1: print stuff that they've done in the past. This has
Speaker 1: a new audio commentary with Victor Erickson and Richard Graham. First,
Speaker 1: there's some extra segments and interviews that they've got on here.
Speaker 1: But this is just one of the more compelling releases
Speaker 1: from me this month, at least to hear discussion on
Speaker 1: Sarron No, definitely one that I feel like, could yeah
Speaker 1: be super educational.
Speaker 2: I ordered three of the partner labels today and this
Speaker 2: was one of them that.
Speaker 1: Does not surprise me. I w ooh, I think I
Speaker 1: can guess what the other two are. Maybe we'll see
Speaker 1: next one. Red Island from twenty twenty three. This is
Speaker 1: another Movement title. Here is the slipcover for this one.
Speaker 1: Has anybody seen this one? This one sounded interesting to me,
Speaker 1: at least, says Living on one of the last remaining
Speaker 1: military bases amidst a hedonistic group of French armed forces
Speaker 1: in nineteen seventies Madagascar, ten year old Thomas begins to
Speaker 1: find cracks in the surface of his family's blissful existence
Speaker 1: on the idyllic island. Taking inspiration from his comic book
Speaker 1: hero Phantom Met, Thomas spies on those around him, discovering
Speaker 1: the hidden and tangled political and sexual lives of the
Speaker 1: colonizers and the colonized as a relocation or sorry. As
Speaker 1: relocation looms, Thomas questions whether the memories he has made
Speaker 1: are ones he should remember fondly. I assume you've not
Speaker 1: seen this one, since it's brand new.
Speaker 2: I've seen Madagascar. I like to move it, move it.
Speaker 1: Oh well, we got a commentary with the director on here,
Speaker 1: and then an essay by a friend of the channel,
Speaker 1: Sam Cohen. That's Sam from the Discord for everybody that's
Speaker 1: in there.
Speaker 2: Oh cool, Sam. I looked at the trailer for this
Speaker 2: and it looked pretty compelling.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's certainly interesting at least. Yeah, I'm very interested,
Speaker 1: But I don't know about an immediate bye. I haven't
Speaker 1: heard anybody that has seen this.
Speaker 2: Well, I think you need a little more meditations on
Speaker 2: postcolonial tension, you know what I'm on it. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Film Movement is also doing Time to Die from nineteen
Speaker 1: and sixty six. This is the slip cover on this one.
Speaker 1: This is a western. This has a video introduction by
Speaker 1: the director Alex Cox who did Repoman. We've got commentary
Speaker 1: by director Arturo Ripstein on this and one of the
Speaker 1: actors some essays on this as well.
Speaker 2: Have you seen this one? Will? No, but I'm very
Speaker 2: excited to. Is this the second one that you purchased? No,
Speaker 2: it's gonna have to be round two. You've already I.
Speaker 1: Really thought it was all right. Next up from phil Movement.
Speaker 1: This is the final one from phil Movement, The Weight
Speaker 1: from twenty twenty three.
Speaker 2: This one.
Speaker 1: The trailer for this actually looks really great. Go check
Speaker 1: this one out. Says deep in the Andalusian countryside, Eladio
Speaker 1: works as the groundskeeper of a hunting estate owned by
Speaker 1: the powerful Don Francisco. After taking a bribe from a
Speaker 1: veteran hunter, Eladio's normal life falls apart, plunging him into
Speaker 1: the depths of guilt, hatred and revenge. This one, I'll
Speaker 1: have a commentary with the director, VFX reel, an essay
Speaker 1: by Rob Hunter and that is it.
Speaker 2: But it looks very good this one. Yeah. The trailer
Speaker 2: for this one I thought was, yeah, I definitely want
Speaker 2: to see this next.
Speaker 1: Canadian International Pictures love those guys putting out action the
Speaker 1: October Crisis of nineteen seventy This is from nineteen seventy three.
Speaker 2: Is this the second title you purchased it? Okay?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a wheel title through and through. Good looking
Speaker 1: slip cover on this one. And then not to mention
Speaker 1: it's CIP. I know, we both love those guys. Great
Speaker 1: work on all of their discs. This one is scannery
Speaker 1: stored in two K from the sixteen millimeter interpositive by
Speaker 1: the National Film Board of Canada. We've got commentaries included,
Speaker 1: one assembled from archival interviews with the director Robin Spry.
Speaker 1: There's another one with Justin Smith. There are some new
Speaker 1: interviews on here as well. French language audio track fifty
Speaker 1: eight minute Portrait of Society Crisis eighteen seventy three, right

Speaker 1: living legend Will Dudd and they he donated five bucks.
Speaker 2: Thanks Cali. Oh thanks? What am I supposed to do? Uh?
Speaker 1: Wave?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: Now take off yourture. Wait, well, I did not mean
Speaker 1: to click.
Speaker 2: I did not mean to This is this is some
Speaker 2: really important history to know, especially right now, not just
Speaker 2: because of not just because of us, but what's happening
Speaker 2: in Canada right now.
Speaker 1: You know, literally this week.
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, the election is one thing, but and you know,
Speaker 2: it's not just the Prime minister, They're the entire parliament
Speaker 2: got shaken up pretty seriously. And I don't know how
Speaker 2: many people follow like the news in Quebec, but linguistic
Speaker 2: strife going on now, I mean it's pretty intense. Some
Speaker 2: people talk about, you know, having an official language. I
Speaker 2: think it's a bad idea, And the more you learn
Speaker 2: about Quebec, I think you'll know why I feel that way.
Speaker 2: But this is a pretty shocking bit of history. So
Speaker 2: I'm really excited to see the documentary and kind of
Speaker 2: fill in the gaps of what I've learned about it.
Speaker 1: CIP has done a few of these now and it's
Speaker 1: always incredible. They do great stuff on these discs. Canadian Terrorists,
Speaker 1: you know. Next title is from Connie and that is
Speaker 1: but Tang West Side from two thousand and one. This
Speaker 1: is a film that is five hours long. This one
Speaker 1: is something that looks incredible. All of the reviews on
Speaker 1: letterbox for this are amazing. I feel like I shouldn't
Speaker 1: say this is this the third one you bought, because
Speaker 1: almost feel like it would be just as everyone. No,
Speaker 1: I've skipped two others that I knew it wasn't, so
Speaker 1: it's not this one. Okay, this is.
Speaker 2: Definitely a round two. I mean I always get everything
Speaker 2: that Connie puts out.
Speaker 1: So it's got to be the music doc that you
Speaker 1: bought that all right? This one sounds just absolutely amazing.
Speaker 1: Shot on sixteen millimeter under duress at the freezing turn
Speaker 1: of the millennium by Young Fearless Love Diez in the Philippines.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, Philippines and a ki Ra happens to be
Speaker 1: in the Philippines watching us live right now on vacation.
Speaker 2: Cool.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a great looking release. We've got multiple
Speaker 1: interviews coming on this in a booklet with some archival writing.
Speaker 1: Connie doing great stuff. Look this film up on letterbox,
Speaker 1: read some of the reviews. I am impressed with this one,
Speaker 1: and I feel like I need to see this Next up,
Speaker 1: Blood Quantum from Shutter. This is from twenty nineteen, says
Speaker 1: the dead are coming back to life outside, but in
Speaker 1: the isolated, meek mac reserve of the Red Crow, the
Speaker 1: indigenous inhabitants are immune to the zombie plague. Trailer, the
Speaker 1: tribal sheriff must protect his son's pregnant girlfriend, apocalyptic refugees,
Speaker 1: and reserve riff raft from the hordes of walking white corpses.
Speaker 1: Now that I'm remembering, I know you wanted Blood Quantum.
Speaker 2: You bought this one. I already have it. Shutter released
Speaker 2: it several years ago. Oh they did. But this has
Speaker 2: a new slipcoverbviously and a scalp defoia commentary it does.
Speaker 1: Yeah, also has a booklet with me writing by Mo Machette,
Speaker 1: and then a short as well.
Speaker 2: I show this in my class on zombies, and you
Speaker 2: know it's it's not a perfect movie, but it's it's raw.
Speaker 2: It really gets to people.
Speaker 1: I've not seen this one, I've heard good things, so
Speaker 1: I will definitely need to check this out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good, good one.
Speaker 1: Then next, Brainstorm Media putting out Consumed from last year
Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. This says, trapped between a madman and
Speaker 1: a skin stealing monster, a married couple must fight to
Speaker 1: make it out of the woods alive. This is starring
Speaker 1: Devin Sawa.
Speaker 2: This one, No, the trailer looks pretty good though it's
Speaker 2: a Wendigo.
Speaker 1: Uh, I've not seen the trailer yet. This is one
Speaker 1: that I kind of bypassed. I probably should go check
Speaker 1: it out. He's got a commentary with the director and
Speaker 1: the writer. We got a video interview with the creator
Speaker 1: of the creature effects in the film. Some I'm behind
Speaker 1: the scenes footage that's forty minutes long, special effects footage
Speaker 1: that's thirty minutes long. Lookle it with the New USA
Speaker 1: by Don Lewis. Looks like a pretty good release from
Speaker 1: Brainstorm And yeah this is this is not a film
Speaker 1: I'd even heard of. But yeah, if you're saying the
Speaker 1: trailer looks good, I'm gonna have to watch that.
Speaker 2: Other than the fact that Devin Sawa is cast as
Speaker 2: as like a mountain man survivalist type, which I don't
Speaker 2: really see. Maybe, maybe, maybe he pulls it off in
Speaker 2: the movie, but that's a tough that's a tough one
Speaker 2: for me, and I like Devian Sawa, don't get me wrong,
Speaker 2: just don't see him in that role. I get that. So,
Speaker 2: but he might astound me. He might be like, hey,
Speaker 2: well check out my range, my mountain range. Oh my god.
Speaker 1: Oh that was that was very usual for me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so this is probably the one you bought them.
Speaker 2: That's the one. Working class ripoff. Oi oi, another fucking ripoff.
Speaker 2: Another media ploy.
Speaker 1: Factory twenty five putting out another music doc. This is
Speaker 1: Crass The Sound of Free Speech the story Reality Asylum
Speaker 1: from twenty twenty three documentary on this region free. We
Speaker 1: got some deleted scenes, including extended interviews with Crass members
Speaker 1: and the director. Twenty eight page booklet with an interview
Speaker 1: with the director as well. Yeah this this screams will.
Speaker 1: I kind of figured it would be this one.
Speaker 2: Oh, love Crafts, you know, this is the one of them.
Speaker 2: I'm not saying they're one of the most important groups
Speaker 2: or collectives, but this is a super important part of
Speaker 2: punk history, and I am certain that it was deliberately
Speaker 2: released today International Workers' Day.
Speaker 1: Factory twenty five doing things right. CALLI kid again has
Speaker 1: a question would love to know your thoughts on current movies. Novacanan,
Speaker 1: Black Bag. I spoke about Novacaine earlier. I thought it
Speaker 1: was pretty good. I think Jack Quaid is definitely up
Speaker 1: and coming. Any thoughts on the Michael Hannica collection will
Speaker 1: I don't think you were here the week that that
Speaker 1: got announced. How do you feel about hannecoverall like anything?
Speaker 1: Any favorites for you?
Speaker 2: Love him the interestingly to me, probably not to anybody else.
Speaker 2: But the first movie I saw of his was Time
Speaker 2: at the Wolf, and I'd never heard of him before.
Speaker 2: And I saw Time of the Wolf and was like,
Speaker 2: WHOA all right? And I happened to be in two
Speaker 2: thousand and eight in San Francisco at a conference, and
Speaker 2: this is where I met my friend Chris Chris Wolf
Speaker 2: for the first time. And I was by myself and
Speaker 2: looking for something to do, and I went to see
Speaker 2: two movies back to back. The first was Michael Hanneka's
Speaker 2: remake of his own Funny Games, and then the second
Speaker 2: was Adam Carolla Is The Hammer, And I watched them
Speaker 2: back to back with Hannicky first Wow. Now, first of all,
Speaker 2: to tell you, Adam Kroll is not my favorite comedian,
Speaker 2: but The Hammer is actually pretty good. I defy anybody
Speaker 2: to watch it and say it's not at least pretty good.
Speaker 2: But Funny Games, you know, I think there was a
Speaker 2: lot of hate about him remaking his own own film
Speaker 2: the way he made it. But I went back and
Speaker 2: watched the original Funny Games and then plowed through his
Speaker 2: whole homography and love him. And so when this box
Speaker 2: set was announced, I was like, who do I have
Speaker 2: to kill to make this happen? You know? Yeah, So
Speaker 2: that's a definite eventual gift for me. But crass so excited.
Speaker 2: The other question there was about Black Bag. What movie
Speaker 2: is that? Black Bag?
Speaker 1: That is the Soderbergh like spy thriller that just came out.
Speaker 1: I've not seen it yet. I know you've not seen
Speaker 1: it yet, but thanks to Ronnie, Ronnie says it is
Speaker 1: streaming on Peacock as of tomorrow, so I will finally
Speaker 1: be able to see it. I've been dying to see it.
Speaker 1: It looked really great, but again shout out. Soderberg already
Speaker 1: released two films this year, and it's May first.
Speaker 2: I've only watched on Peacock that Saint Dennis Medical Shows.
Speaker 2: It's sweet. So now I'll watch Black Bag. There's not
Speaker 2: much stuff on that one. I don't think peacock, Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't. I don't use that often either, I guess. Uh,
Speaker 2: all right, so that was how many goddamn movies are left?
Speaker 1: Only like forty four?
Speaker 2: Are you serious?
Speaker 1: No, he's real, like twelve or fifteen.
Speaker 2: I'm so tired, man, I'm going to try to make
Speaker 2: this this next one really funny. Uh it's.
Speaker 1: Oh that was awful timing, Big Old Pictures putting out
Speaker 1: a double feature of Monopoly of Violence and German youth. Yes,
Speaker 1: let's hear your routine for this one.
Speaker 2: Will that's all the title? That'd be a funny thing
Speaker 2: to say.
Speaker 1: I was very funny.
Speaker 2: I'm interested in these. These are fair. These are newer
Speaker 2: movies that I'm not familiar with.
Speaker 1: Yeah, twenty Big World Pictures has done a lot of
Speaker 1: really good stuff that's very heady.
Speaker 2: Big World is another one where I get pretty much
Speaker 2: everything they put out, so I trust their taste.
Speaker 1: And they seem to be speaking to your flavors quite
Speaker 1: well well.
Speaker 2: Canadian terrorists and German terrorists, German youth.
Speaker 1: Oh man, So yeah, this one region a lock blu Ray.
Speaker 1: We got a couple trailers on here, some short films
Speaker 1: and a book of new writing by Felipe for Tado. Yeah,
Speaker 1: big world pictures, solid quality work and I never hear
Speaker 1: people talking about them.
Speaker 2: Good stuff.
Speaker 1: Next, ETR Media putting out Satan Wants You from twenty
Speaker 1: twenty three, with one of the best slipcovers of the
Speaker 1: year so far, but even better. I know a lot
Speaker 1: of people don't love the ETR Media stuff, but everyone
Speaker 1: I know that has seen this, I know I have
Speaker 1: a handful of friends that saw this on the festivals,
Speaker 1: seem to think this was incredible. I even got a
Speaker 1: couple that like had to go back and watch it
Speaker 1: twice while it was in theaters. So Satan Wants You
Speaker 1: tells the untold story of how the Satanic Panic of
Speaker 1: the nineteen eighties was ignited by Michelle Remembers, a lurid
Speaker 1: memoir by psychiatrist Larry Paster and his patient Michelle Smith.
Speaker 1: Supported by the Catholic Church, the best selling book relied
Speaker 1: on recovered memory therapy to uncover Michelle's childhood abduction by
Speaker 1: baby stealing Satanists, amplified by law enforcement. In America's daytime
Speaker 1: TV boom Fucking Heraldo, Satanic rumors spread through panic stricken
Speaker 1: comedies communities across the world, leaving a way of destruction
Speaker 1: and wrongful convictions in their wakes. This film digs deep
Speaker 1: into the roots of moral panics and cult conspiracy, showing
Speaker 1: how these events still affect and distort our reality today.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this sounds incredible.
Speaker 1: I got to see this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not to mention people like the West Memphis three. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is This is such a reminder how goddamnopid everybody is,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? Uh, these are these the
Speaker 2: people that believe this shit are the same people today
Speaker 2: who are like, I think vaccination is a choice, you know,
Speaker 2: those morons And I heard you, You're like, uh, get
Speaker 2: mad at Heraldo, which is great, But like the Catholic
Speaker 2: Church supported this crap, you know, Catholic Church. You know,
Speaker 2: everybody's all like, yeah, Pope, Pope, Pope, the guy in
Speaker 2: a costume that everybody says is the mouthpiece of God. Okay,
Speaker 2: that's freaking weird. And Lindsey Graham is nominating the Orange
Speaker 2: King to be the mouth of God. This, this church
Speaker 2: supported a hoax that they knew full well was a
Speaker 2: hoax that resulted in the destruction of so many innocent
Speaker 2: people's lives and people still believe this stuff. Oh yeah,
Speaker 2: you know. I remember growing up, I had a babysitter
Speaker 2: the whole time my folks were gone. She's telling me
Speaker 2: about backwards led Zeppelin lyrics.
Speaker 1: I was just so expecting baby stealing Satanists to be
Speaker 1: coming into that.
Speaker 2: No, anyway, the Catholic Church supports this stuff. And I
Speaker 2: don't know, I don't know if you're aware of this,
Speaker 2: but they've got a history of messing with children which
Speaker 2: zero people have been held to accounts, and everybody's like, oh,
Speaker 2: the most powerful. You know, our freaking laws are determined
Speaker 2: by these people, and I don't care for it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I agree. Reservoir wants to point out that you
Speaker 1: can watch this currently on two B.
Speaker 2: No offense to any Catholics listening. You know, you got
Speaker 2: the best art and horror movies for sure.
Speaker 1: No offense unless you have a history of children than
Speaker 1: all offense.
Speaker 2: Or you know, selling passes to heaven or torturing people
Speaker 2: to death for hundreds.
Speaker 1: Of years, or one of the other eight hundred and
Speaker 1: fourteen things we could.
Speaker 2: Refusing refusing to, you know, give health care to women.
Speaker 1: Speaking of the Catholic and Atheist scary things that we
Speaker 1: were just talking about. This is a perfect time to
Speaker 1: transition into AGFA putting out their Scare Film Archives Volume two,
Speaker 1: Danger Stories, from nineteen fifty one to eighty two. I
Speaker 1: personally loved the first volume of the Scare Film Archives,
Speaker 1: so this one says, prepared to learn everything you've ever
Speaker 1: wanted to know about sentient flames, rebellious bicycles, and workplace dismemberment.
Speaker 1: The Scare Film Archives Volume two, Danger Stories collects the
Speaker 1: best of the best educational safety scare films from the
Speaker 1: twentieth century, lovingly curated from Something Weird Falls and Beyond.
Speaker 1: These surrealist visions have been preserved from original sixteen millimeter
Speaker 1: prints that were inflicted upon children and classrooms across America.
Speaker 1: So this has thirteen shorts preserved from the original elements,
Speaker 1: all combined from like I said, fifty one to eighty two.
Speaker 1: But on top of that, they've also got a commentary
Speaker 1: on Mister Flame with Brett Berg, Tiernan Arok and Josiemba
Speaker 1: from AGFA. There's also a couple other commentaries on here.
Speaker 1: But then Danger Stories A Word Salad Symphony, an exclusive
Speaker 1: feature length of mixtape from a friend of the show.
Speaker 1: Brett Berg from AGFA himself, this looks amazing.
Speaker 2: Shake hands with danger alone is worth the price of
Speaker 2: a mission. Yeah, that was a classic mystery science theater
Speaker 2: short and it's got a great original song attached to
Speaker 2: it as well.
Speaker 1: Polp is making a joke from the last month, but
Speaker 1: he's says, I'm afraid to be banned now since you
Speaker 1: banned him last time. But priests have actually been held
Speaker 1: accountable for a molestering children.
Speaker 2: He says, it's the same thing they did with soldiers
Speaker 2: and Abu Grave. None of the none of the big
Speaker 2: wigs got in trouble. They just they just said, oh
Speaker 2: I see a couple bad apples. You know, nobody who
Speaker 2: should be in jail is in jail.
Speaker 1: I would agree, But what it is true some people
Speaker 1: have been held responsible, just not the right ones.
Speaker 2: And I'll say this, I don't know what facts have
Speaker 2: to do with anything. This is probably the one that's
Speaker 2: gonna get me in trouble. Talking about the Catholic Church.
Speaker 1: Uh so CALLI kids, says The Michael Hanica collection is
Speaker 1: limited per movie. It's a great deal. And I don't
Speaker 1: work for Umbrella. Just a poor boy from a poor family. Well, yes,
Speaker 1: it is limited, although they do say that there's going
Speaker 1: to be like a smaller addition going to some other
Speaker 1: retail stores, so I hope that that keeps.
Speaker 2: All of the differ at least.
Speaker 1: I'm still impressed that they expanded the set and didn't
Speaker 1: charge more. That's a really classy move from them, all right.
Speaker 1: Scare Film Archives Volume two from AGFA. Next Sleeping Beauty
Speaker 1: from twenty eleven getting a release from IFC Films. This
Speaker 1: one is presented by Jane Campion. Julia Lee is the
Speaker 1: director on this and Emily Browning is the star. We
Speaker 1: got a new commentary from the one and only Alexandra
Speaker 1: Heller Nicholas booklet with new writing by Esther Rosenfield. And
Speaker 1: this one is supposedly pretty decent. We've not been able
Speaker 1: to check this one out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good I like it good.
Speaker 1: And twenty eleven so fairly recent. Bleeding Skull doing their
Speaker 1: next release. This is from nineteen eighty seven. It's a
Speaker 1: blu ray of the Soul Tangler. This had a DVD
Speaker 1: release before, and this was preserved from the one inch
Speaker 1: tape master because the sixteen millimeter film elements were all lost.
Speaker 1: There's a commentary on here with the director Pat Bischo.
Speaker 1: Director's cut sixty two minutes long, quite a bit shorter
Speaker 1: than the regular cut on this one. We got some
Speaker 1: other extras, some music videos, a bonus movie. It's a
Speaker 1: Haunted Happening from two thousand and two, which is seventy
Speaker 1: four minutes long. It's a previously unreleased film from the
Speaker 1: same director, and that also includes a commentary. Bleeding School
Speaker 1: doing some killer releases.
Speaker 2: I feel like in last year awesome trailer upe for that.
Speaker 2: That one made me very intrigued.
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, indeed, I am excited about this one. Bleeding
Speaker 1: School does good stuff. I was responding to somebody.
Speaker 2: I liked your build up to that. Oh this is yeah,
Speaker 2: this is kind of what I tell myself every day
Speaker 2: when I wake up.
Speaker 1: Saturn's Cores releasing two thousand and five's You Are Alone.
Speaker 1: Here is the slop coover on this one. You Are
Speaker 1: Alone presents a haunting exploration into just how far a
Speaker 1: man and woman will go to escape loneliness, if only
Speaker 1: for an hour. This is a film directed by Gorman Bashard,
Speaker 1: who also did the film Disconnected that was released by
Speaker 1: Vinegar Syndrome. This has a brand new commentary by the
Speaker 1: director or some archival extras, the original ninety seven minute
Speaker 1: rough cut and then a new twenty twenty five career
Speaker 1: spanning interview with the director, as well some deleted scenes,
Speaker 1: a whole bunch of short films and ross from Saturn's Core.
Speaker 1: Just building an incredible disc like he always does. If
Speaker 1: you are ever wondering if a Saturn's Core release is
Speaker 1: going to be worth it, there's like nothing else that
Speaker 1: you could possibly want on these things. Looks like a
Speaker 1: pretty loaded disc for a film that I didn't even
Speaker 1: know existed. But the director seems to love it, and uh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I like just connected.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he also did Psycho Is in Love with Yeah,
Speaker 2: this is I think several months ago we were talking
Speaker 2: about a Saturn's Core release and I think I made
Speaker 2: an offhand remark like where are the the s ov
Speaker 2: like dramas? And here we are, here we go. This
Speaker 2: looks really good. I've not seen it before, but I'm
Speaker 2: a fan of a Shard or Beckard. I can't remember
Speaker 2: how it's pronounced, not sure, but anyway, I guess I'm
Speaker 2: not as much of a fan as I thought. I
Speaker 2: can't even say his name right, but yeah, this is
Speaker 2: when I definitely want to get to get ahold of
Speaker 2: as soon as I can afford it.
Speaker 1: Well, I know I can pronounce I'm a fan of
Speaker 1: Adam's core Ross. Keep doing what you do, do good work.
Speaker 1: And then a Maluscene title is up for preer to
Speaker 1: right now. This is going to be coming on four
Speaker 1: K as it's part of the male Youuscene line, and
Speaker 1: all of their titles are four K. This is Naked
Speaker 1: Came the Stranger from nineteen seventy five, says Billy and
Speaker 1: Gilly host New York's most provocative and successful morning talk show,
Speaker 1: but their lascivious on the air personas are masking a
Speaker 1: far less than voracious home sex life. Everything comes to
Speaker 1: a head when Gilly discovers that her seemingly faithful husband
Speaker 1: is carrying on with his quote love Bunny phyllis at
Speaker 1: first hurt bison fidelity. Gilly quickly decides that she too,
Speaker 1: ought to expand her sexual horizons, and with that in mind,
Speaker 1: begins an over the top game of seduction as she
Speaker 1: beds each of her and Billy's high society friends. This
Speaker 1: is a Radley Metzger film, and this is a two
Speaker 1: disc set. You got a four K and a region
Speaker 1: free Blu Ray feature length audio commentary with Radley Meh
Speaker 1: moderated by Ashley West from the Realta Report. That is incredible.
Speaker 1: We got the alternate softcore version of this included. We've
Speaker 1: got a trailer, some radio spots, archival image gallery, locations,
Speaker 1: featurette liner booklet with Ashley West from the Realta Report
Speaker 1: there as well. Yeah, I love most of them, Miliu
Speaker 1: scene releases.
Speaker 2: Have a difficult time watching them. We just have the
Speaker 2: one TV in the open room and my kids never
Speaker 2: go to bed right, understandable. I'll see it one of
Speaker 2: these days.
Speaker 1: That is it?
Speaker 2: Varosian? Before we talk about Shane, how do you feel
Speaker 2: about Shane?
Speaker 1: Shane will come back? How do you feel about these
Speaker 1: this slate from Vinegar Syndrome Because again and a lot
Speaker 1: of people complaining that it's super mainstream, but again, I
Speaker 1: feel like it's a natural sort of progression for Vinegar Syndrome.
Speaker 1: If they can sell, if they can sell eight thousand
Speaker 1: copies of the Golden Child, and that that can fund
Speaker 1: literally like the year of restorations for them, why would
Speaker 1: they not So?
Speaker 2: First of all, I think the partner label slate this
Speaker 2: month for me is I want I want all sixteen
Speaker 2: or fifteen however many titles that is, which is not
Speaker 2: always the case, but this time I want all of them.
Speaker 2: They all all those films look interesting, at least as
Speaker 2: far as I don't know. I you know, john Ford reportedly,
Speaker 2: you know, said I do one for them, one for me.
Speaker 2: You know what I mean. You you, in order to
Speaker 2: subsidize a film that isn't going to make money or
Speaker 2: might lose money, you got to put out something that
Speaker 2: you know is going to make money. Yeah, So I
Speaker 2: would never complain about that as a as an economic reality.
Speaker 2: And even if you know, for example, Golden Child isn't great,
Speaker 2: it's still cool that it's getting released. It couldn't never
Speaker 2: release before Jade had a Blu ray that was out
Speaker 2: of long out of print.
Speaker 1: Golden Jail did have a Blu ray like I mentioned,
Speaker 1: Oh it did just a couple of years ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I mean this is you know, did anybody
Speaker 2: complain about a cinematograph for Drop Zone? Yes, oh, many
Speaker 2: many people did. And you know, dirty work is dirty
Speaker 2: work deserves that kind of attention and it would never
Speaker 2: get it from a studio.
Speaker 1: So yeah, to me, Dirty Work kind of makes up
Speaker 1: for everything right now, even if I hated the rest
Speaker 1: of them, Like this, this Dirty Work release is an
Speaker 1: astonishing et to Norman Bob that like should be impossible. Literally,
Speaker 1: I mean no, no studio specifically MGM, and how they
Speaker 1: treated this was going to sit down and go through
Speaker 1: dailies and time exactly when they needed to cut certain
Speaker 1: things in from some fuck random tape that was recorded
Speaker 1: at a pre screening of the Dirtier cut.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so, I mean, you know, if I mean, Dirty
Speaker 2: Work is probably going to pay for itself. I hope so.
Speaker 2: But to the point of many people who prefer the
Speaker 2: more obscure work coming out in vinegar syndrome, Like in
Speaker 2: order for us to get stacked packages of extras for
Speaker 2: these these movies that aren't necessarily going to sell a
Speaker 2: bunch of copies, ye, this is the way to do it.
Speaker 2: And so I never begrudge if there's something I don't
Speaker 2: want to I just don't get it. And it's that simple.
Speaker 1: Uh. Before we get to Shane, Kelly, Kid wants to
Speaker 1: know from you, what is one movie that you want
Speaker 1: on Blu Ray? Will I know that you've talked about
Speaker 1: Wishless before, many times.
Speaker 2: Only one, just one. I would start with one, just
Speaker 2: one that's so hard? Blue Ray? Or for wait? Can
Speaker 2: I pick a four K and a Blue Ray? Sure?
Speaker 2: I want a four k uhh fourthwith of Tears of
Speaker 2: the Black Tiger. Okay, and I want a Blu Ray
Speaker 2: real restoration good addition of I want to say every
Speaker 2: John Sales movie, but if I only get to have one,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go with I'll start with Brother from Another Planet?
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, solid pick wellt's discuss. Oh gosh, I was
Speaker 1: trying to get out of that. Uh, let's see.
Speaker 2: I would have said the Shane remake. But here it is.
Speaker 1: Oh man, God, that is a good, good question. Craig says,
Speaker 1: Brother from Another Planet is coming soon, isn't it.
Speaker 2: I had not heard that. Let me go look it
Speaker 2: up because that would make me happen Brother from of
Speaker 2: course if Vinegar Syndrome wants to really make me happy.
Speaker 2: Merchants of Death, the Trauma License film. I say it
Speaker 2: every week, every week, every time I'm on What would
Speaker 2: Ryan want to bring from DVD to Blu Ray more
Speaker 2: than anything else?
Speaker 5: Hmmm?
Speaker 1: A movie that will hates that I watched a lot
Speaker 1: as a kid, if I remember, I Will hates this,
Speaker 1: but I grew I grew up for some reason because
Speaker 1: I was raised in southern California. I really loved dangerous Minds.
Speaker 1: I would love to see that get a flue ray.
Speaker 2: I'm seeing some good stuff in the chat. Oh oh,
Speaker 2: we got some altmand there a wedding. I agree. Yeah,
Speaker 2: that's nice.
Speaker 1: Brother from Another Planet is not listed anywhere as coming soon,

Speaker 1: Was genuinely in honor this release coming together. I don't know,
Speaker 1: there's something super special about it and extra poignant. Again,
