Speaker 2: It's a big, big one.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah. We have nightmaran on Om three, one, two, three, four,
Speaker 3: and five, which Ryan, you're joining us for nightmarron Om
Speaker 3: three four, and then we are done with our nineteen
Speaker 3: eighties New Line mini series and then breaking news, we
Speaker 3: are starting our new film series which is going to
Speaker 3: be over Film district.
Speaker 2: Nice.
Speaker 3: Yes, so we will be talking about drive, We'll be
Speaker 3: talking about a fucking uh. Don't be afraid of the dark,
Speaker 3: insidious and the Sidious two. The Rum Diary safety not guaranteed.
Speaker 4: Spike Lee's Old Boy remank other things, yes, which I
Speaker 4: have not seen. I have not seen, but I know
Speaker 4: is very divisive.
Speaker 3: Also, the remake of Red Dawn, I believe.
Speaker 4: Yes, it means I have to watch the original.
Speaker 3: Anything. It's fun, I mean I will. I haven't either.
Speaker 2: That is a batch of titles. I I'm kind of
Speaker 2: worried for your for your headspace.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, it's always fun. We always have a
Speaker 4: good time whenever we chat about even if a movie
Speaker 4: is terrible, it's always fun to get together. And you know,
Speaker 4: poo poo, And.
Speaker 2: That's I'm sure the Old Boy episode is going to
Speaker 2: be amazing.
Speaker 3: Ah, better better than better than the movie. Let's let's
Speaker 3: try for that. I don't know.
Speaker 4: That movie is what eleven years old, and I still haven't.
Speaker 4: I love Spike Lee, and I still haven't seen it.
Speaker 4: I remember they released that one in didn't wasn't that
Speaker 4: like a Thanksgiving release? And then it flopped in entirely
Speaker 4: and even Film District was like, I don't know.
Speaker 2: Well, God, that means the original is what twenty one years?
Speaker 2: Then I think, oh.
Speaker 3: Good lord, yeah yeah, Old Boy remake came out in
Speaker 3: November twenty seventh.
Speaker 4: I'm seeing here, Yeah, and you're right because I remember
Speaker 4: Old Boy the original. I think it played in the
Speaker 4: same can competition that Tarantina was that had jury for,
Speaker 4: and I thought I recall correctly that was up for
Speaker 4: the Palmdor along with Shrek two. So it's not the
Speaker 4: only time that like people have sat around the table
Speaker 4: and been like, okay, so we're talking best picture here,
Speaker 4: what did we all think of Old Boy? And then
Speaker 4: someone just brings up I wasn't Shrek too? I mean.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but the hallways saying yeah, but he fucked the
Speaker 3: donkey fock's a dragon and Shrek.
Speaker 2: Two voting had to be close at least. So last
Speaker 2: couple episodes of the show what have You Had on?
Speaker 2: You had? One of my favorite Vinegar Syndrome titles just
Speaker 2: released today.
Speaker 3: Oh, buddies, Yes, we released that today. Yes, that's arguably
Speaker 3: one of the best movies we've covered.
Speaker 4: Some period, not even in the series.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, my demon lover. Let me think, let me,
Speaker 3: thank you. But yeah, we had buddies. We recently had
Speaker 3: uh we had Mitchell bo Pray, who was supposed to
Speaker 3: be here today, but they are very busy. But they
Speaker 3: came on for a double feature of Perfect Strangers and
Speaker 3: Special Effects.
Speaker 4: Effects, which I am very bummed that I had to
Speaker 4: miss the recording data of due to something that came up,
Speaker 4: especially because I watched not only those, but you know,
Speaker 4: I watched you know, I've seen the stuff, and I
Speaker 4: watched God Told Me To And what was the other one?
Speaker 4: I watched The Wings, you know, so I was doing
Speaker 4: my research and then life happened.
Speaker 5: Yeah, oh that's all good.
Speaker 2: Well, since you didn't get your share that, How do
Speaker 2: you feel about uh, Larry Cohen? Now?
Speaker 4: I like Larry Cohen. I mean I still feel like
Speaker 4: I mean I've I've seen him a good chunk now,
Speaker 4: but I still feel like I'm scratching the surface with him.
Speaker 2: I mean.
Speaker 4: It is I think my favorite of his is probably
Speaker 4: God Told Me To, which I thought I knew what
Speaker 4: I was getting into with that movie, and I had
Speaker 4: no effing idea. I mean his Yeah, i think I'm
Speaker 4: more pro than Kevin would.
Speaker 3: Would that be My favorite? Is the stuff, because that
Speaker 3: maybe just doesn't give a shit.
Speaker 4: Big fan of the stuff, The stuff is awesome. When
Speaker 4: I worked at the Coolist Corner Theater a few years ago,
Speaker 4: I think this was right before the pandemic, we bought
Speaker 4: a bunch of fluff from night screening of the stuff
Speaker 4: and printed out the labels for the stuff and just
Speaker 4: taped them on. And it was the only midnight screening
Speaker 4: we ever did in which we just had the basics
Speaker 4: out for fluffer Nutter sandwiches, which people were welcome to
Speaker 4: do make with the stuff, which was, uh, it was.
Speaker 4: It was fun. That's weirdly, I've seen that. We also
Speaker 4: showed the director's cut of the stuff, and I've seen
Speaker 4: both versions of that, and it was one of the
Speaker 4: few times they preferred the shorter version of that one.
Speaker 4: The directors kind of gets into this military subplot that
Speaker 4: isn't uninteresting but a little bloated. Yeah, it kind of yeah.
Speaker 3: Comes out of nowhere. Yeah, that's the only part on it,
Speaker 3: just like, hey, no, get back to the stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and funny enough, you know you just mentioned those two.
Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of you. The wingk Serpent. I
Speaker 2: don't know if it's my favorite, but just the fact
Speaker 2: that he went out there and like basically bribe some
Speaker 2: cop to work for him after their shift and handle everything.
Speaker 2: That is such a badass idea. But you know, the
Speaker 2: big thing is everybody's gotta to pay attention to his writing.
Speaker 2: I mean, other than the stuff that he's directed. He
Speaker 2: is an incredible scriptwriter. Used to work for insanely cheap
Speaker 2: and insanely quickly, so because of that, he wrote some
Speaker 2: crazy off the wall scripts. I feel like a lot
Speaker 2: of those are really ripe for some good physical media releases.
Speaker 4: Yes, I mean, yeah, there's been Vinegar Syndrome. That Wasn't
Speaker 4: there a vinegar Syndrome release for Perfect Strangers?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: And special Effects.
Speaker 3: That Special Effects was olive, I believe.
Speaker 2: Put that out.
Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, that sounds right, yeah.
Speaker 2: Which means I guess theoretically we could see it from
Speaker 2: Sandpiper coming up soon. Oh, of course that, since they're
Speaker 2: the same people. But other than that, let's get into
Speaker 2: physical media as a whole. Kevin, what you been picking
Speaker 2: up lately? I've loved seeing some of those pictures.
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. Okay, so I don't have them today,
Speaker 3: but I was supposed to get my shipment in from
Speaker 3: the Rare Waves to for fifteen pounds sale or whatever.
Speaker 3: So I went nuts on that and got a lot
Speaker 3: of eighty eight films Hong Kong releases and a lot
Speaker 3: of Eureka movies. I think it was Eureka. Maybe just
Speaker 3: a bunch of eighty eight, but that's coming in soon.
Speaker 3: But yesterday I got a Grindhouse shipment of three Visual Vengeance.
Speaker 3: That's the Visual Vengeance. So I got Bloody Musty Muscle
Speaker 3: Builder in Hell of course, damn good one. We got
Speaker 3: Slaughter Day of course in the Abomination.
Speaker 2: You see those.
Speaker 3: I got black Cat in today, which I got in
Speaker 3: the Rare Waves thing. I bought this thinking it was
Speaker 3: the limited edition. It's not. I have two copies of
Speaker 3: Black Cat. Maybe one of my favorite purchases that I've
Speaker 3: ever made is I finally got this in in the
Speaker 3: Line of Duty box set, and this was all. This
Speaker 3: was a complete blind buy, and every single one of
Speaker 3: them just it's fantastic.
Speaker 2: They're so good and so different too, like the fact
Speaker 2: that they you know, you don't have a true through storyline,
Speaker 2: and yet everybody's just amazing and exciting and engaging the
Speaker 2: entire time. Really great series.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I honestly, like, yes, Madam was probably my least
Speaker 3: favorite out of the four, and I still liked it.
Speaker 3: But also I went into it thinking it was gonna
Speaker 3: be a Michelle Yoh and Cynthia Rothrock just kicking ass,
Speaker 3: and it's usually and it's mostly these three guys just
Speaker 3: being like, what does everybody want to kill us? And
Speaker 3: I'm like, hey, get out here. And then I picked
Speaker 3: up because in the Line of Duty five through eight
Speaker 3: or nine or ten, however much there actually is officially
Speaker 3: all bootlegs of that besides this, which I got from Germany.
Speaker 3: I believe that's the eighth one. Who knows a few
Speaker 3: titles I got for I'm trying to get all the
Speaker 3: Dragon Dynasty movies, so I finally got Killer on Blu Ray,
Speaker 3: Nice Horror Boiled on Blu Ray, tai Chi Master. I
Speaker 3: think this is the Ronanflis release of it, and then
Speaker 3: the Legend one and two Ronan release of that as well,
Speaker 3: and then I think the rest that I have here
Speaker 3: are ones that I I picked up. These two Connie releases,
Speaker 3: I think I don't think it was in the Disconnected discord.
Speaker 3: I think it was the Boutique Blu Ray discord but
Speaker 3: I got beaver Erotica and bullets every summer. And then
Speaker 3: from the the Disconnected Discord, which everybody should join for
Speaker 3: only seven dollars a month. Who did I? I want
Speaker 3: to shout them out. I got this today from Zach.
Speaker 3: From Aaron, I got the Iron Monkey Eureka because I
Speaker 3: bought the I found the region a one in like
Speaker 3: a record store for like five dollars. And then I
Speaker 3: didn't know until I got it that it's like edited,
Speaker 3: you know. And then from Sam Cohen I got Hard
Speaker 3: Target on four K.
Speaker 2: I had to get Sam Samon mentioned I totally get it. Charlie,
Speaker 2: what about you picking up anything recently?
Speaker 4: Not as recently as Kevin. But I do have a
Speaker 4: lot of stuff that I since the last time I
Speaker 4: was on the show. So the two big Vinegar Syndrome
Speaker 4: or you know, uh, you know, uh friends of Vinegar
Speaker 4: Syndrome stuff. Yes, I got the poetry of Lee Chang
Speaker 4: Dong uh, which I have not seen any of these yet. No, No,
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I've seen poetry which is incredible and I'm
Speaker 4: eager to revisit that one. I believe the other four
Speaker 4: or other three are Peppermint Candy, Oasis, and green Fish
Speaker 4: Green Fish, So I I do need to dive into this.
Speaker 4: My roommate Oasis is one of his favorite films, although
Speaker 4: I've heard that one is very uh dice dicey, So yeah,
Speaker 4: not comfortable viewing. But I'm you know, I am very
Speaker 4: excited to dive into this. I mean, I saw Burning
Speaker 4: in theaters a couple times, thought that was one of
Speaker 4: the best films of that year or like, we're incredible, unbelievable.
Speaker 4: The Burning is so good that I saw it at
Speaker 4: a film festival and the Favorite was right after that.
Speaker 4: The Favorite screened like forty five minutes after Burning, and
Speaker 4: I couldn't like, I didn't even like it was an
Speaker 4: able to get into the Favorite the first time I
Speaker 4: saw because all I could think about was the last
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes of Brain and it was just not fair.
Speaker 4: But and I also got theems like Us, which also
Speaker 4: has an essay by our good friend Mitchell bout Prey.
Speaker 4: Still need to watch this one, especially with the passing
Speaker 4: of Shelley devall Rip for She's incredible. I'm an Altman fan.
Speaker 4: Somehow I've never gotten around to this, but I'm excited
Speaker 4: to dive into it.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 4: And it's New four K release for the first time.
Speaker 4: I did also get I think this one's a little
Speaker 4: a little older, but well it came out since the
Speaker 4: last time we were on the show. But I got
Speaker 4: Claire Denise Bastards. If any of you haven't seen this
Speaker 4: and uh you like dark uh dark thrillers, holy crap,
Speaker 4: the ending of this thing will like just knock you
Speaker 4: on your ass and then make you want to see
Speaker 4: it sit through it again. But also yeah, like have
Speaker 4: you dreading you know, going through the whole experience again,
Speaker 4: which is I mean, I gotta love that. Frankly, when
Speaker 4: you get that that chill and you're down your spine
Speaker 4: and then you're like, oh shit, I need to like,
Speaker 4: oh God, like I need to go on that pride again.
Speaker 4: It's yeah, great, Clardon, he's one of my favorite filmmakers.
Speaker 4: She might come up later, who knows. The Criterion sale,
Speaker 4: I know was in July, but I did go pretty
Speaker 4: big on that, especially because there's a Barnes and Noble
Speaker 4: that is about seven minutes away from where I work,
Speaker 4: so I was able to pick up Pat Garrett and
Speaker 4: Billy the Kid, which I had never seen until very recently.
Speaker 4: The New four K release final film by Sam Peck
Speaker 4: and Paw. Just, I mean, I knew this movie was
Speaker 4: gonna be awesome. I had, like every Sam Peck and
Speaker 4: Paw film, I never fully prepared for how sad and
Speaker 4: haunted I will be by the end of it. Just
Speaker 4: it's it's an incredible four K release. There are three
Speaker 4: versions on it. The fiftieth anniversary release and the original
Speaker 4: theatrical release are in four K. Then there's the final
Speaker 4: preview cut, which I believe is the longest one. I'm
Speaker 4: excited to. You know, I've heard the theatrical is a
Speaker 4: little butchered from you know what he initially intended, and
Speaker 4: the final pret you cuts a little jinky, But I'm
Speaker 4: excited to dive into all three versions of that. And
Speaker 4: then I caught up with a lot of movies that
Speaker 4: I just love that I really wanted to own. So
Speaker 4: Drive my Car. Sorry, it's blurry. I'll get blur for
Speaker 4: am I able to? Yeah, let me get rid of
Speaker 4: the blur for a sec. Background? Okay, So yeah, Drive
Speaker 4: my Car just one of the best films of our
Speaker 4: current decade.
Speaker 2: We'll be talking about himly tonight.
Speaker 4: Yes, here's one that I this is a first time
Speaker 4: viewing for me that I watched for the first time
Speaker 4: I think since the last time I went on the
Speaker 4: show and immediately was like, I need to own this.
Speaker 4: But Woman in the Dunes, which I believe Jeane Siskel
Speaker 4: said was one of his favorite films and just some
Speaker 4: of the most incredible cinematography I've ever seen, a movie
Speaker 4: that I'm sure I will pick up on little details
Speaker 4: here and there every every single time I watch it
Speaker 4: just surreal and it burrows into your brain. This one
Speaker 4: in a way that like it's hard to It's one
Speaker 4: of those movies that I've never really felt, the uneasiness
Speaker 4: and the simultaneous like two things can be true. This
Speaker 4: is so beautiful and also so unsettling at the same time.
Speaker 4: But some movies kind of capture a vibe. Then this
Speaker 4: one is so distinctive that I can't even compare it
Speaker 4: to anything else. It's the first film by Hiroshi Teshi
Speaker 4: Gahara that I've ever seen. I can't wait to dive
Speaker 4: into the rest of this stuff. And I believe there's
Speaker 4: some short films on here. I think, yes, there are
Speaker 4: four short films that I need to dive into. On
Speaker 4: the bonus features a blind by that I have not
Speaker 4: watched yet, and I'm kicking myself that I haven't. Is
Speaker 4: Selene and Julie go boating. I I'm just gonna admit,
Speaker 4: and this is a bit embarrassing. I have yet to
Speaker 4: dive into Jackravette. I've heard this is a good gateway,
Speaker 4: despite the fact that it's over three hours long.
Speaker 3: I haven't gotten into him either.
Speaker 2: So I've never watched single one. Charlie, You're in good company.
Speaker 4: Good to know heard this is incredible. I will admit.
Speaker 4: I was in Barnes and Noble when I bought this,
Speaker 4: and I introduced show Girls a repertory screening of show
Speaker 4: Girls at the Summerville Theater in the Boston area, and
Speaker 4: you know, I mentioned that Jakravette was one of its
Speaker 4: biggest defenders. And then there was a part of me
Speaker 4: when I was in that Barnes and Noble who was like, well,
Speaker 4: if I'm introducing Showgirls, I just I might as well
Speaker 4: get this for homework or research and of court. And
Speaker 4: you know, I just didn't get around to it in time, unfortunately.
Speaker 4: But I'm still excited to watch this and be like, oh,
Speaker 4: I wonder wonder where this guy loves Showgirls. I don't know,
Speaker 4: ridiculous at this point, since we're approaching spooky season. I mean,
Speaker 4: cure the Kyoshi Kiro saw phone. He might also come
Speaker 4: up later with another mention of one of his movies,
Speaker 4: But this is one of the scariest movies I've ever seen.
Speaker 4: During Lockdown, I was in quite a few virtual movie clubs,
Speaker 4: and there was one where I got to pick an
Speaker 4: October a movie for a week in October, and I
Speaker 4: felt like no one had seen this, and I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: this will be a good one. And while they all
Speaker 4: enjoyed it, the meeting for that for that club, when
Speaker 4: it's immediately started with what the fuck? Like what's the
Speaker 4: matter with you? And yeah days, as well many other
Speaker 4: things in this movie. I mean, it's just the overwhelming
Speaker 4: dread that this movie fills me with, is it? He's
Speaker 4: He's one of our greatest living filmmakers. Kyoshikira Sawa Daisies
Speaker 4: one of my favorite movies. I haven't watched this release yet.
Speaker 4: I have seen it on film. Weirdly, right after I
Speaker 4: saw a screening of Terrence malickx The New World in
Speaker 4: the same theater, both on thirty five milimeter, and I
Speaker 4: was it was one of those things where I was
Speaker 4: just like, God, I just love movies so much. And yeah,
Speaker 4: it's been a minute since I've seen this, but yeah,
Speaker 4: one of you know, one of the great, one of
Speaker 4: the great, is it check? Yeah? Yeah, Czechoslovakian Comedies and
Speaker 4: another Blind Eye. This is another embarrassing one that I
Speaker 4: haven't seen, but I am Cuba, which I know Jenna
Speaker 4: Ortega has been mentioning on her Beetlejuice Beetle Juice tour weirdly,
Speaker 4: which it's in four K. I've heard that it's one
Speaker 4: of the best looking movies ever made. Just you know,
Speaker 4: it was there, I grabbed it. We'll be catching up
Speaker 4: with that one soon. This is another good one for October.
Speaker 4: Peeping Tom a new four K. I had to scour
Speaker 4: the internet to reserve this on the Barnes and Noble
Speaker 4: website because I think it took me three Barnes and
Speaker 4: Noble chief sites to just reserve a copy of this,
Speaker 4: and I ended up driving over several towns just to
Speaker 4: pick this up. This was impossible to find where I live.
Speaker 4: And it's kind of amazing because you know, you think
Speaker 4: about this film's history and how it completely you know,
Speaker 4: tanked Michael Powell's career came out the same year as Psycho,
Speaker 4: you know, revitalized Hitchcock completely. Uh And and I think
Speaker 4: Psycho is a masterpiece. It's one of my favorite Hitchcocks
Speaker 4: as well. But this film makes a few movies make
Speaker 4: me feel more complicit in being a voyeur or you know,
Speaker 4: weapon or make the camera. The weaponization of the camera
Speaker 4: so upsetting and yet it's so alive at the same time.
Speaker 4: I love this movie to death, can't wait to revisit
Speaker 4: that to die for.
Speaker 2: New four K.
Speaker 4: Of that, I mean, it's arguably i'd say top three
Speaker 4: Nicole Kidman performances like up there, I'd say Birth, like
Speaker 4: Eyes Wide Shot, maybe maybe Dogville. Yeah, but great movie
Speaker 4: bound New four K bound. Can't wait to check this out. Also,
Speaker 4: I keep forgetting this is an unhut version, And I
Speaker 4: don't know if I've seen the uncut version of this movie.
Speaker 4: Was the previous release uncut?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was gonna ask was the all of uncut?
Speaker 4: I don't know, Sure, I genuinely don't know. And this
Speaker 4: is just an oddity, but I was visiting my family
Speaker 4: and Cape cod My parents now live in Truro, Massachusetts,
Speaker 4: so it's right outside of Provincetown. So we went shopping
Speaker 4: one day and in a used bookstore, I found a
Speaker 4: sealed copy it is no longer sealed because I've watched it,
Speaker 4: but a sealed copy of the Keno Larber four K
Speaker 4: of Turbulence for ten dollars, Yes, fully sealed. I was like,
Speaker 4: I'd never seen it. I had heard of it, but
Speaker 4: I was like, well, it's ten bucks. I just got
Speaker 4: to grab it. And yeah, this is a first of all,
Speaker 4: it's a Christmas movie too. I didn't know that, so
Speaker 4: I'll probably be revisiting this come December. But Demented, yeah, minted, violent,
Speaker 4: so much fun. I mean, this movie got so trashed
Speaker 4: if you look up the reviews during the time of
Speaker 4: its release. And I sat there just, you know, pretty
Speaker 4: much cackling the whole time, just thinking, good Lord, what
Speaker 4: I would give for a movie like this and to
Speaker 4: come out today and it'll and and you know, I
Speaker 4: love a good demented Ralio to performance. This movie might
Speaker 4: be the most unhinged he's ever been, which is saying something,
Speaker 4: I mean, what would Kevin We're going?
Speaker 3: I'm saying probably, I just can't think of anything else.
Speaker 3: But I mean what else comes close to Turbulence.
Speaker 4: I mean, come on, I mean, I mean, yeah, something wild.
Speaker 4: He's scary, but like this is like just.
Speaker 5: Like I don't know, Yeah, I like at.
Speaker 4: One point that he's framed all the dead bodies in
Speaker 4: as if they're having like basically a tea party or
Speaker 4: a Christmas party or something.
Speaker 3: And then like, I have heard good things about Turbino's
Speaker 3: three Heavy Metal, which sounds like even more my movie
Speaker 3: than Turbulence is. Let me tell you, just like take
Speaker 3: out Raliota put in hair metal band. I'm just like
Speaker 3: that sounds great.
Speaker 2: Let's go Nark is a good shout and this one
Speaker 2: actually is a really good one. Unlawful Entry, he's pretty
Speaker 2: on him.
Speaker 4: I do need to see Unlapful Entry. That is a
Speaker 4: that is a big blind spot for me.
Speaker 2: And good movie.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Kurt Russell and Medaline Stowe, right, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2: Early nineties thriller, not afraid to push the boundaries.
Speaker 3: It's great, Ryan, before you show off. I can't reach
Speaker 3: it right now. But I got the new Frogman Walmart.
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, Lee, very happy. I got that drove like
Speaker 3: thirty five minutes away for our Frogman. That's right.
Speaker 2: I don't know if the counts were off, or they
Speaker 2: just hadn't get it yet. I'm not gone back to
Speaker 2: check yet, but the one that Brad said was in stock,
Speaker 2: it wasn't, so perhaps somebody already bought them all. I'm
Speaker 2: dying to get it. Uh yeah, it's a big one.
Speaker 2: A lot of people are very happy that they've been
Speaker 2: able to just walk into a store and get it.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I do need to see dark. All of these
Speaker 4: suggestions are things that I need to see. By the way,
Speaker 4: so thank you for all.
Speaker 2: I am not trying to make Kevin unhappy, but I
Speaker 2: got my OCN shipman for this month already and so
Speaker 2: wanted to shout out I used to be funny. This
Speaker 2: is the new Rachel Sennate and literally everything I've ever
Speaker 2: seen her in and have been dying to see this
Speaker 2: since it was announced. When I announced this on the show,
Speaker 2: Film Movement was not a partner label yet and this
Speaker 2: movie I could not wait to own. And I was
Speaker 2: so glad that I could get a throws in Hotel
Speaker 2: by Jessica Hausner. This thing sounds incredible. Cannot wait to
Speaker 2: watch this nice looking slip on this one. Back when I.
Speaker 3: Watched that it was a DVD rip on Daily Motion.
Speaker 3: I couldn't even find the DVD to buy it, so
Speaker 3: I'm glad that there's a blue rayb in now.
Speaker 2: Uh. With Kevin on the show, had to talk up
Speaker 2: some s OV so we've got flush freaks. Can't wait
Speaker 2: to get that crazy, crazy slip cover on this. I
Speaker 2: am amazed that Ross chose to go here with this
Speaker 2: slip looks fantastic. Another one I'm amazed with. I am flabbergasted.
Speaker 2: I can't show the back, but the fact that we
Speaker 2: have Delirium on four K, and this has had so
Speaker 2: many just off the wall, not great releases throughout the years,
Speaker 2: and now we have a vinegar syndrome four K Delirium,
Speaker 2: mind boggling, just absolutely insane. And then finally, Cinematograph has
Speaker 2: been a big deal for a lot of people this year,
Speaker 2: and I think so far this is their best looking
Speaker 2: physical release. Had to get a fish. Been very happy
Speaker 2: with the discs, but this is the first of the
Speaker 2: big media book packages that I went this is This
Speaker 2: is like a handsome package. This is a really nice
Speaker 2: way to put this together. I appreciate this a lot,
Speaker 2: love the way they went with the art style. Eager
Speaker 2: to watch this absolutely.
Speaker 3: Bought a month ago. Thank you, You're welcome.
Speaker 2: That is what I got. But you guys watch a
Speaker 2: lot of stuff, so let's talk about that. What have
Speaker 2: you been watching, Charlie.
Speaker 4: I saw The Substance, which I believe Kevin also saw. Yes,
Speaker 4: I saw it with Not only did I see The
Speaker 4: Substance twice, I saw it with Sam Cohen twice. So
Speaker 4: we saw it on Wednesday for opening night, so yeah,
Speaker 4: about eight days ago and had a blast. And then
Speaker 4: the past weekend it was just a rainy Saturday and
Speaker 4: Sam just texted me like, you want to go see
Speaker 4: The Substance And I was like, you know what, Yeah,
Speaker 4: let's go. It's very very divisive. I do understand why,
Speaker 4: but I found it just an absolute, an absolutely gruesome hoot,
Speaker 4: and also a very angry and scathing and sad film
Speaker 4: as well. I mean, I you know, I think that
Speaker 4: Demi Moore being in the spotlight with this performance and
Speaker 4: this and and being giving this type of uh a
Speaker 4: performance that is so brave and vulnerable I found deeply
Speaker 4: moving and also very very funny. I mean, she goes
Speaker 4: full Betty Davis at one point in this movie. Without
Speaker 4: trying to spoil anything. I know that this film has
Speaker 4: gotten some backlash over the past week, and some people
Speaker 4: are claiming it as a feminist masterpiece, and some people
Speaker 4: are claiming that it's just as misogynistic as the targets
Speaker 4: that it is trying to attack. I somehow found it
Speaker 4: to be a miraculous This is the second time I'm
Speaker 4: saying it already. But two things can be true. Type
Speaker 4: of thing it can be. It can be funny and
Speaker 4: deeply sad. It can be angry and also you know,
Speaker 4: fun it can be. It's a lot of things. I'm
Speaker 4: trying not to get into any specifics because if you
Speaker 4: haven't seen it, you should go in as blind as possible.
Speaker 4: But I Kevin feels similarly, Uh.
Speaker 3: If we if we spoiled it, the thing is, nobody'd
Speaker 3: be like, hey man, thanks for spoiling it. They'd be like,
Speaker 3: that doesn't happen in the movie. And then they watched it,
Speaker 3: they're what they did that? Yeah, Now the Substance is
Speaker 3: fucking incredible. Favorite movie of the year. It was very
Speaker 3: good to walk out of the movie this year that like,
Speaker 3: I actually loved, because there's been a few there's been
Speaker 3: a handful of movies that I've liked, but nothing where
Speaker 3: I was just like, oh, man, favorite movie the year.
Speaker 3: I was like, well, I guess by default that's my favorite,
Speaker 3: but I'm not really that happy about it because before
Speaker 3: this it was I think the First Omen, which I
Speaker 3: really liked, like really liked the first Omen, but like,
Speaker 3: the substance is my shit, like it was made for me.
Speaker 3: Is entirely everything that I love, a messy movie about
Speaker 3: culture and also just bodyhord, just grossness, and also the
Speaker 3: best score I've heard in so long.
Speaker 4: I was listening to the score on Spotify in my
Speaker 4: car the other day.
Speaker 3: It's been so long since I left a movie theater,
Speaker 3: which is the goofiest smile on my face. So it
Speaker 3: was just like, this is why I come here, This
Speaker 3: is it.
Speaker 4: I'm seeing some comments saying, yeah, I agree that it
Speaker 4: is purposely shoving the mail gaze in your face, despite
Speaker 4: the fact that you know directed by Corli Fargiad, I
Speaker 4: mean with this in Revenge, I think that she has
Speaker 4: now made two big genre movies that are It's interesting
Speaker 4: how Revenge kind of deconstructs the male gaze in front
Speaker 4: of you and makes you feel complicit and then gives
Speaker 4: you everything that you want out of that revenge movie.
Speaker 4: And this is a movie very much about self hatred
Speaker 4: and the specter of patriarchy and how it you know,
Speaker 4: it kind of burrows its way into making women, you know,
Speaker 4: like self critical and very and and and that that
Speaker 4: delves into the body horror. I agree. I think that
Speaker 4: the film itself is also very much satirizing the male gaze,
Speaker 4: and it's very much pointing everything directly back at you
Speaker 4: in the most blunt way possible, which I consider a feature,
Speaker 4: not a bug. You know, obviously it's not gonna be
Speaker 4: everybody's cup of tea, but that's also kind of what
Speaker 4: I love is how kind of in your face and
Speaker 4: abrasive and how much it does not give a shit
Speaker 4: whether or not you like it or not. Have you
Speaker 4: seen it yet, Ryan.
Speaker 2: I have not. We we went the kids to that.
Speaker 2: We went to the theater with the kids this last week,
Speaker 2: and so we couldn't go to that. We went into
Speaker 2: a Beetle Juice. Beetlejuice, Oh, a month after everybody else,
Speaker 2: and in fact, it's been kind of a kid heavy week.
Speaker 2: We normally don't move them up like we have, but
Speaker 2: we felt like it was kind of time. So we
Speaker 2: we we showed them a monster movie that was like
Speaker 2: not animated, one that had some customer words and everything.
Speaker 2: I showed them Cloverfield for the first time. Oh my
Speaker 2: eight year old. My nine year old sat entranced this
Speaker 2: entire time. My eight year old almost cried, said it
Speaker 2: was a sad movie because of the people that were dying.
Speaker 2: My nine year old absolutely loved it. Was intrigued and
Speaker 2: asking a lot of questions, and I said, see, this
Speaker 2: is good. You're doing the right thing. This is what
Speaker 2: the movie wanted you to do. And so now like
Speaker 2: I think we're ready to move on to some bigger things.
Speaker 2: Obviously Tremors is coming up soon. Excited about some others
Speaker 2: and yeah, it's that period. I've been looking forward to
Speaker 2: this for years. So we were finally breaking through. I'm excited.
Speaker 4: That's awesome.
Speaker 3: Hell yeah.
Speaker 4: I remember seeing Cloverfield and opening night, I closed my
Speaker 4: job at a food court in the mall and just
Speaker 4: walked right over to the regal that was connected to it.
Speaker 4: I remember seeing that movie in two thousand and eight
Speaker 4: and being like, oh it is Oh, it's just perfectly
Speaker 4: fine to destroy New York again. I guess it's like
Speaker 4: I remember being like, okay, it's been now so seven years,
Speaker 4: that's our limit, like ye, but I also feel like
Speaker 4: that's obviously part of the point. But I do remember
Speaker 4: just like it was the first time, like even day
Speaker 4: after tomorrow, I know, New York gets flooded, but like
Speaker 4: the post nine eleven imagery in that, I mean, I
Speaker 4: guess we're the worlds as well, but like I guess
Speaker 4: the specific monuments that get completely taken apart in Cloverfield,
Speaker 4: it almost felt like it was purposely pushing our buttons
Speaker 4: in a way that was like, see, we're doing this again,
Speaker 4: and you're kind of like, oh shit, okay, yeah it was.
Speaker 2: It was an interesting, interesting way to look back in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty four lens against that for sure. Yeah, that
Speaker 2: was a that was a fun one. And then the
Speaker 2: other one. I guess I should shout out because I'm
Speaker 2: not sure if either one of you seen this from
Speaker 2: this year. And I've not seen many people talking about this.
Speaker 2: Have you guys seen Blink twice?
Speaker 4: No, I haven't. I am hoping to catch up with
Speaker 4: it soon. I've heard it's very divisive.
Speaker 2: It is, and I can see why. But it's the
Speaker 2: best thing. Like it's unique, It's fairly original. It's a
Speaker 2: movie that is very obviously made for twenty twenty four
Speaker 2: and needed to be. I think it was a pretty
Speaker 2: great directorial debut for Zoe Kravitz. Hell of a cast.
Speaker 2: Nice to see Christian Slater doing something super fun. Channing
Speaker 2: Tatum comes across as an idiot and diabolical and semi normal.
Speaker 2: I liked it. I thought it was decent. It had
Speaker 2: a lot of issues, but still like for what I expected,
Speaker 2: I think it was a lot better than it could
Speaker 2: have been.
Speaker 4: I will say I think it's fascinating that Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice
Speaker 4: is in theaters the same time that a movie Geena
Speaker 4: Davis is in is also out in theaters, and they
Speaker 4: are not the same thing.
Speaker 2: And very different movies.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, because when is the last time Geena Davis
Speaker 4: has been in a movie period?
Speaker 2: She I mean, she's done a couple indies over the
Speaker 2: last decade, I think, where she's made very small appear errances.
Speaker 2: But yeah, she's legitimately in Blink twice. That's the good thing.
Speaker 2: She gets a couple of minutes of screen time at least. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's not just a glorified cameo. Nice, all right, we've
Speaker 2: ready to go through some announcements.
Speaker 3: Then, yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 2: We talked about turbulence for a while. Another one that's
Speaker 2: very similar like that is starting off around tonight, and
Speaker 2: that is below from Keno Laber. This is killing Off
Speaker 2: four K on November twenty sixth. This is from the
Speaker 2: same director of Pitch Black and stars the likes of
Speaker 2: Zach galafan Akis, Bruce Greenwood, Olivia Williams in this. Of course,
Speaker 2: this is going to have an audio commentary by the
Speaker 2: director and a handful of the actors, but all of
Speaker 2: this is all archival ectress from the previous release. They
Speaker 2: did not do anything new for this, which is kind
Speaker 2: of surprising, but there's a lot that they've been doing
Speaker 2: like that recently. I'm kind of shocked some of these
Speaker 2: four K upgrades. They're not shelling out for anything new.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it is HDR, isn't Hasn't Quino been getting shipped
Speaker 3: for having SDR?
Speaker 2: Uh? Yeah, a lot of the ones that they're doing
Speaker 2: with Studio Canal, there's no HDR because Studio Canal has
Speaker 2: not done HDR in a lot of their four K releases.
Speaker 1: Hm hmmm.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the only thing I know about this movie is
Speaker 3: it was co written by Darren Aronofsky and that's it.
Speaker 3: M be I don't know.
Speaker 2: I am eager to see it, though. Let's go to
Speaker 2: our next one. Uh Yu gi Oh Bonds Beyond Time
Speaker 2: from twenty ten is getting a blue ray steel book
Speaker 2: from Sinnada. I'm December seventeenth, or either of you into anime.
Speaker 4: I'd say, I'm I I do like anime. I My root,
Speaker 4: my good friend and roommate, has a subscription to Crunchy
Speaker 4: Role and watches every single show that is ever streamed
Speaker 4: on there. I I would consider myself like a casual fan,
Speaker 4: more of a you know, more into the Satashi Khan
Speaker 4: you know, right, me as Zaki uh uh uh Sao
Speaker 4: Takahata like. I'm much more well versed in you know,
Speaker 4: certain film tours when it comes to anime. But I mean,
Speaker 4: I love Nean Genesis Evangelian, I loved Pokemon growing up.
Speaker 4: I was a little too old, I think, for Yu
Speaker 4: gi Oh by the time that came out, so I
Speaker 4: never I never got into this, but I know that,
Speaker 4: you know, obviously, it still has you know, tons of fans,
Speaker 4: and I am curious, so.
Speaker 2: I would like to point out I do not love
Speaker 2: that there's basically zero art on the inside. However, I
Speaker 2: think it's really neat to include the list of bonus
Speaker 2: features on the inside of the steel book like this.
Speaker 3: Interesting even if the I mean, I think the only
Speaker 3: reason they did that is because the features bonus features
Speaker 3: interactive menu. Yeah, every time I think about Yugoh, I
Speaker 3: was big into it when I was little. I remember
Speaker 3: every Sunday the Hastings Video Store would have Yu gi
Speaker 3: Oh get togethers. Were just a bunch of nerds that
Speaker 3: you know, would play Yugyoh. But I remember one day
Speaker 3: I did not want to play Yu gi Oh because
Speaker 3: I wanted to rent the Ring on VHS, but they
Speaker 3: were all rented out, so I spent two hours just
Speaker 3: walking around waiting for somebody to return the ring. You
Speaker 3: know what I got at the end of the day,
Speaker 3: I got the Ring on VHS.
Speaker 2: And now maybe somebody will talk about it tonight, which,
Speaker 2: by the way, I didn't bring up our topic after
Speaker 2: an announcement. Tonight, we're gonna be talking our top ten
Speaker 2: favorite horror from two thousand to two thousand and nine,
Speaker 2: and we're gonna be starting a series the next couple
Speaker 2: of times the almost major boys come back. We're gonna
Speaker 2: be doing twenty ten to twenty nineteen on the next one,
Speaker 2: and then the twenty twenties for the appearance after that.
Speaker 2: Cannot fricking wait. This was really hard to get to
Speaker 2: a top ten, by the way it was.
Speaker 3: I there are quite my honorable mentions are.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I'm gonna okay, good, we're to say
Speaker 4: honorable mentions.
Speaker 2: I have honorable mentions.
Speaker 4: It was tough, and also trying to spread the love
Speaker 4: in between certain sub genres of horror, and yeah, well.
Speaker 3: It was hard because I chose it because I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: the two thousands are so bad, and then I came
Speaker 3: up with a top ten in like two minutes, So
Speaker 3: I don't know what I'm talking about.
Speaker 2: We will get into all that nuance and just a
Speaker 2: little bit. Next one Transformers one, which literally just got released.
Speaker 2: This is coming into four K steal book, a standard
Speaker 2: four K release, and then of course Blu ray DVD
Speaker 2: all from Paramount. This is coming soon. We don't have
Speaker 2: a release date on it yet, but you can pre
Speaker 2: order these now. And I've heard nothing but fairly positive
Speaker 2: reviews about this one. My kids are going to see
Speaker 2: that with Grandma this weekend. I hope it's a decent hell.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I our friend Jamie. I think they liked it.
Speaker 4: I did not know this thing existed until like a
Speaker 4: week ago.
Speaker 3: A week yeah, like a week before. I was just like,
Speaker 3: what is that? Okay?
Speaker 4: I will say I was listening to an episod. So
Speaker 4: the most recent episode of Linoleum Knife, which is Alonzo
Speaker 4: dur All Day and Dave White, who are the critics
Speaker 4: for the rap who are married to each other, and
Speaker 4: Alonso is describing this movie to Dave and said, this
Speaker 4: is the movie where that it answers the lifelong question
Speaker 4: what happened when Megatron and Optimist Prime were friends? And
Speaker 4: Dave White just said, is this a question that keeps
Speaker 4: people up at night?
Speaker 2: That people have been waiting forty years to hear? The resolution?
Speaker 2: For Good God? Next up, VCI releasing Impact from nineteen
Speaker 2: forty seven. This is coming on January twenty first on
Speaker 2: Blu Ray. This is one that a lot of people
Speaker 2: have been waiting on because it's got anime Wong, Charles Coburn,
Speaker 2: Ela Raines. One that I believe had like a pretty
Speaker 2: pretty widely released DVD back in the day, but just
Speaker 2: a title that has not had any love on Blu
Speaker 2: Ray yet.
Speaker 3: I love this art in the top right hand corners,
Speaker 3: so fun that guy is having a time.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I love how that that's not terrible, it's
Speaker 6: it's interesting.
Speaker 2: But they felt the need to go with twenty percent
Speaker 2: of the art to have film.
Speaker 3: Noir in a big if you couldn't tell.
Speaker 2: Next up, Hot Pursuit coming soon from Keno Lobra on
Speaker 2: Blu Ray. This is a big one. This is John
Speaker 2: Cusack and it's got a Jerry Stiller and his young
Speaker 2: scrappy son Ben Stiller being an asshole in this one.
Speaker 3: Huh oh and Keith David Hell.
Speaker 2: Yeah, David, Robert Loggio. This is from eighty seven, way
Speaker 2: back in the day.
Speaker 3: Seeing this cover reminded me tangent. But when when we
Speaker 3: we already recorded our episode of nine ran Umstry two,
Speaker 3: which we had the mixed reviews guys on was awesome, awesome, awesome,
Speaker 3: awesome episode. But Gavin was bringing up the way that
Speaker 3: that Nimrin Lmsture two probably got popular, was like USA
Speaker 3: up all night and I was like, oh yeah, I
Speaker 3: haven't thought about that forever. And then I scoured the internet,
Speaker 3: downloaded all the full episodes I could find, and so
Speaker 3: many of them are movies that if they're not called
Speaker 3: hot Pursuit, you would think they're called hot Pursuit, where
Speaker 3: it's like Beach Balls, Extreme Malibu Summer Party. And I'm like,
Speaker 3: I would never watch these movies solo. But the fact
Speaker 3: that I can watch them, you know, preserved in time
Speaker 3: from the nineties, I'm like kind of interested. I did
Speaker 3: that last night. I watched the full episode of Hell
Speaker 3: Comes to Frogtown. That movie is kind of boring.
Speaker 2: Actually it's one.
Speaker 3: I mean, the frogs are great. There's a lot of frogs.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of roddy piper. But I was expecting
Speaker 3: more roddy piping and we didn't get that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I get that. Uh. Next one, probably Keno's
Speaker 2: biggest announcement in quite some time. They are put out
Speaker 2: a four K release of Happy Gilmore.
Speaker 4: I sent this to Kevin when I saw that, because
Speaker 4: Kevin and I have a lot of nostalgia for nineties
Speaker 4: Adam Sandler movies that we grew up with. I would
Speaker 4: say this and Billy Madison of those, I mean, like,
Speaker 4: when it comes to my favorite Adam Sandler movies on
Speaker 4: Cut Gems and Punch Drunk Love. But in terms of
Speaker 4: like the Adam Sandler starring comedies that he was known for,
Speaker 4: I mean, This Is This and Billy Madison are probably
Speaker 4: the best. I mean, Wedding Singer I actually.
Speaker 3: Great film.
Speaker 2: It's great singer.
Speaker 4: I somehow missed that one during my childhood. I don't
Speaker 4: know how. I don't know how I missed it and
Speaker 4: only caught up with it like five years ago, But
Speaker 4: it's great. But yeah, Happy Gilmore, I mean rip Carl
Speaker 4: Weathers too. It's yeah, it's gonna I haven't watched it
Speaker 4: since he passed.
Speaker 3: But Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison are basically the two
Speaker 3: pillars that uphold almost major because all we do is
Speaker 3: just quote from these two movies. We actually don't talk
Speaker 3: about any movie recovering. We just we just do Adam
Speaker 3: Sandler voices and quotes from both of these movies.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I remember watching Happy Gilmore for the first time.
Speaker 4: I was at a sleepover at like in like fifth grade,
Speaker 4: in order to Pepperoni pizza and was like, this is
Speaker 4: the greatest night of my life. I was ten years
Speaker 4: old and getting to watch a new Adam Sandler.
Speaker 3: Movie, Charlie. You can do the same thing tonight and
Speaker 3: it would be the same feeling, order of Pepperoni pizza
Speaker 3: and put on Happy Gilmore. It would be great.
Speaker 2: I am so jealous of people that don't have kids
Speaker 2: right this moment. Go into our next one. Leon aka
Speaker 2: Leon the Professional from nineteen ninety four getting a four
Speaker 2: K steel book in the UK from Studio Canal on
Speaker 2: December two. This is a slightly upgraded release potentially from
Speaker 2: what I hear. But the big thing I actually really
Speaker 2: like the art on this one, that this has not
Speaker 2: had really great art in the last couple of rounds
Speaker 2: of physical media. I feel like this is a pretty
Speaker 2: big title for a lot of people, obviously Jean Renaud
Speaker 2: and Gary Oldman, but of course young Natalie Portman. How
Speaker 2: do you guys feel about this one?
Speaker 3: It's a great movie that I'm surprised, like I'm always
Speaker 3: so surprised that it was directed by absolutely nobody.
Speaker 4: I have not seen it in a very long time,
Speaker 4: but it'sation for me a lot in high school watchers
Speaker 4: recommended to me. Actually, and then I got into sorry Kevin.
Speaker 3: I was just saying I watched this at the same
Speaker 3: time I watched like American History Acts at the same time,
Speaker 3: and like Boondocks Saints and just turned into the biggest
Speaker 3: shitthill in seventh grade. I haven't seen any of those since,
Speaker 3: and they should probably stay that way. I will say,
Speaker 3: I wish The Steel Book just had Gary Oldman on
Speaker 3: the front. Yeah, that'd be great.
Speaker 2: I'm really impressed that this movie made Jean Renau skyrockets
Speaker 2: like one of the most famous actors in the world
Speaker 2: for two years and then he disappeared again.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, what like who's in Godzill Andronan in nineteen
Speaker 4: ninety eight?
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, he did a Crimson Rivers that
Speaker 2: was kind of big back then too.
Speaker 4: Yeah he was in Margaret. He wasn't Margaret. Yeah, sorry,
Speaker 4: had to happen at some point.
Speaker 2: October twenty eighth in the UK, Nucleus Films is putting
Speaker 2: up Blood bat at the House of Death from nineteen
Speaker 2: eighty four. This is familiar because Vinegar Syndrome just released
Speaker 2: this in what most people will say is a much
Speaker 2: better release. However, if you are a big fan of
Speaker 2: UK comedy, you might want to double dip on this one.
Speaker 2: And I will say, if you scroll down a little
Speaker 2: bit this has a bonus Blu Ray disc that includes
Speaker 2: the Kenny Everett Naughty Joke Box that's almost eighty minutes long,
Speaker 2: and then a year later the new Kenny Everett Naughty video,
Speaker 2: which is again almost eighty minutes long. They were done,
Speaker 2: I believe for like late night TV in the UK,
Speaker 2: and so many people have had problems being able to
Speaker 2: find these for years, and now they're getting It's probably
Speaker 2: only an SD on Blu Ray release, but still the
Speaker 2: fact that it will be out there, so glad that
Speaker 2: people are gonna be able to see this.
Speaker 3: Hold On, hold On. Sibner is saying that he worked
Speaker 3: on Margaret. Charlie, do you need five minutes to talk
Speaker 3: to Sibner?
Speaker 4: Yeah, please tell me everything. Margaret is one of my
Speaker 4: gun to my head, top ten favorite movies ever. Probably
Speaker 4: I've been on record saying it's my top favorite movie
Speaker 4: of the twenty tens, and I will stand by that easily.
Speaker 3: Holy shit, Yeah, we need to we need to investigate
Speaker 3: this further. But I will say I was never even
Speaker 3: heard of Nucleus Films. They eitherything else that I would
Speaker 3: remember to be like, oh they put that out, Okay.
Speaker 2: I believe their associated with screen bound over there.
Speaker 3: Oh okay, okay.
Speaker 2: And not super high quality m yeah yeah, but either way,
Speaker 2: it's it's cool. Those are coming on Blu Ray. Going
Speaker 2: back to anime for a quick moment. November twenty six,
Speaker 2: the Blu Ray from Crunchy Roll on Attack on Titan
Speaker 2: Final Season the Final Chapters, Part three, which is one
Speaker 2: of the reasons I can never collect anime. This is
Speaker 2: the final season, but only the final chapters and only
Speaker 2: part three. And it's this crazy limited edition with four discs.
Speaker 2: That's sure.
Speaker 3: This won't even fit on Instagram.
Speaker 2: Right, it's crazy, absolutely crazy. Uh. And then the special
Speaker 2: features on this textless ending songs and that's it. Okay,
Speaker 2: all right, going to the next one. Uh, this is
Speaker 2: where all of the drama started. Let's get into it
Speaker 2: for a moment. December one, in the UK, we are
Speaker 2: getting Blu Ray releases of Cannibal the Musical. We are
Speaker 2: also getting The Toxic Avenger, and we're also getting Sergeant
Speaker 2: Kabuki man NYPD. Now starting with Cannibal the Musical. This
Speaker 2: is a huge deal because this film has never been
Speaker 2: on Blu Ray. This has not had a great release,
Speaker 2: that hasn't had a new restoration in quite some time.
Speaker 2: This is a big deal for a lot of people
Speaker 2: that love trauma. This was one of the biggest ones
Speaker 2: for a lot of people that love South Park. This
Speaker 2: is when they've wanted for a long time because Trey
Speaker 2: and Matts are involved in this, and this has I mean,
Speaker 2: the number of special features is longer than the Instagram window.
Speaker 2: That's how crazy this is. They went all the way
Speaker 2: back to the master tapes on this, did a full
Speaker 2: shot by shot restoration. They've got tons of different cuts.
Speaker 2: They've got deleted scenes that were approved by Trey and
Speaker 2: Matt from this year. They've got all the commentaries that
Speaker 2: have ever been done on this. They've got all kinds
Speaker 2: of interviews, they've got all the epks, they've got everything
Speaker 2: going back years and years and years.
Speaker 3: Then, uh, that sounds great, Brian. Nothing else happened ran a.
Speaker 2: Couple hours after that, and we'll get back to some
Speaker 2: of this other stuff. Vineger Syndrome says, Hey, by the way,
Speaker 2: coming in November, a month earlier than Refuse Films, we
Speaker 2: are putting out a blu ray as part of the
Speaker 2: Degausser line of Cannibal the Musical. So if you're in
Speaker 2: the US, you might want to pick up this one.
Speaker 2: They're saying that their addition will be housed in a
Speaker 2: VS style hard case with the original art and a
Speaker 2: forty page perfect bound scrapbook. And in addition to featuring
Speaker 2: an exclusive to Degausser new restoration from the highest quality
Speaker 2: video master, They've done a brand new feature length making
Speaker 2: of documentary, including appearances from several never before interviewed crew members,
Speaker 2: a new featurette covering the stage adaptation of the film,
Speaker 2: and a new group commentary with cast and crew. They're
Speaker 2: saying this is on top of hours and avers of
Speaker 2: amazing archived extras. Now, I've got nothing against Vinegar Syndrome
Speaker 2: releasing their own version of this. I've got nothing against
Speaker 2: Refuse Films putting this out. The hard part here is
Speaker 2: the owner, Liam of Refuse Films has come out and
Speaker 2: let everybody know that Vinegar Syndrome has told us retailers
Speaker 2: not to stock the UK release of this film. I
Speaker 2: have supported Vinegar Syndrome for quite some time. Not gonna
Speaker 2: say anything negative about that necessarily, but that is extremely
Speaker 2: anti competition and anti consumer in my opinion.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I've definitely heard stuff about that with the
Speaker 3: I think it was the eighty eight film's release of
Speaker 3: like the Iceman comment that Vinegar Syndrome's version that some
Speaker 3: retaillers have said that Vinegar Syndrome is like, hey, why
Speaker 3: don't you just not you.
Speaker 4: Know, I had no idea about this drama until just now.
Speaker 4: That is.
Speaker 2: It's not the first time. Yeah. Another one that was
Speaker 2: recent was Treasured Films put out Mausoleum and they did
Speaker 2: the same thing. It's kind of shitty, kind of shitty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's it's not it's not like a one
Speaker 3: to one. It's like they both were working on versions
Speaker 3: of it, it seems like, and they both like very independently.
Speaker 3: So it's just like it. Yeah, it sucks, no way
Speaker 3: around it. It sucks even if Vinegar sistrom is saying
Speaker 3: that they can't carry it whatever anything like that. Like,
Speaker 3: even if it didn't, it was just like we spent
Speaker 3: all this work and somebody else is.
Speaker 2: Also doing it.
Speaker 3: You know, that really does suck. I will say I'm
Speaker 3: getting the deals version because I'm buying all the degals
Speaker 3: from movies, So I almost bought this on DVD like
Speaker 3: last month too, so I'm thankful I didn't.
Speaker 2: I don't have anything against Vinegar Syndrome saying hey, we
Speaker 2: got ours coming out. That's a good thing to let
Speaker 2: customers know that.
Speaker 3: That's happening on the import Yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: Not against that whatsoever, But bullying retailers into not carrying
Speaker 2: competitors' products, that's the shitty party. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't really like that, No, because I think I
Speaker 3: heard I think it was on Reddit as well. I
Speaker 3: think Mark from Orbit was saying something were just like
Speaker 3: yeah on stuff that we've carried, both of them, Vinegar
Speaker 3: Sistrom has like overwhelmingly sold them out. So it's like,
Speaker 3: I don't see why. It feels like you guys have
Speaker 3: to be like, don't sell it. It's just like, if
Speaker 3: you're proud of your product, most people that are in
Speaker 3: the US are going to buy that one unless they
Speaker 3: already want to buy like the eighty eight Films version
Speaker 3: or the Eureka version. It's just like, just right, let
Speaker 3: both of them sell. Especially. It feels really bad because
Speaker 3: I don't know if this was if this was like
Speaker 3: an eighty eight Films or Eureka that puts out a
Speaker 3: bunch of stuff, But this is a company that I
Speaker 3: did not know existed until this announcement came out and
Speaker 3: they feel like very small. Seems like they worked really
Speaker 3: hard on it and then just kind of gets sidelined
Speaker 3: by another of these.
Speaker 2: For the record, this is literally their third, fourth, and
Speaker 2: fifth releases that we're talking about tonight. They've only done
Speaker 2: before this. Wow.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So anyways, if people want to order from Refuse Films,
Speaker 2: I strongly suggest it. I'm definitely gonna be buying the
Speaker 2: three pack just to show support to the young startup
Speaker 2: company here, because honestly, the special features really kind of
Speaker 2: blow it out of the water. I don't see the
Speaker 2: degasser one having this much on there. I'm not saying
Speaker 2: that they're not gonna be different, because they're definitely gonna
Speaker 2: be different, but yeah, I think this is the better
Speaker 2: package to me overall.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think I'm gonna get the Kabookie Man Blu
Speaker 3: Ray because the toxic avendrome. I'm probably gonna get that
Speaker 3: four pack. I think four K Yeah, Yeah, might get that.
Speaker 2: Stan. The release date on these is December first in
Speaker 2: the UK, And by the way, if anybody's gonna go
Speaker 2: over there to support and order shipping and all that stuff,
Speaker 2: just a heads up the shipping because it's from the UK.
Speaker 2: Sixteen dollars, and I know that sticker shock for a
Speaker 2: lot of people, and that's one of the reasons why
Speaker 2: I have such a problem with this, because if Orbit
Speaker 2: could carry these, shipping would never be a problem for people. Yeah,
Speaker 2: if Diabola could carry these would be a flat six
Speaker 2: dollars shipping, no big deal. But yeah, the big thing
Speaker 2: here is to support them, you have to buy all
Speaker 2: three titles or you know, whatever you're gonna get, say
Speaker 2: you're gonna get Cannibal, and then spend sixteen to get
Speaker 2: track shipping. That's the only one they had reservoirs saying
Speaker 2: is the movie any good? Like South Park or not? Kevin,
Speaker 2: you want to answer that one.
Speaker 3: I haven't seen Kennibal with musical in like probably like
Speaker 3: twenty years. But I mean I as somebody who went through.
Speaker 2: What was that.
Speaker 3: I think it was last year. I went through the
Speaker 3: South Park Pandemic specials and I had not watched South
Speaker 3: Park in probably like fifteen years, and it was just like,
Speaker 3: I was expecting this to be worse than it is,
Speaker 3: and it's actually kind of just there and kind of lazy.
Speaker 3: I was like, Okay, let me go back to like
Speaker 3: the first few seasons. First you've seen the South Park
Speaker 3: is fucking fantastic then and now I rewatched the movie.
Speaker 3: The movie's fantastic. I a door. I know they didn't
Speaker 3: write it, but I adore basketball.
Speaker 2: I say it's so good.
Speaker 3: It's it's it's not my favorite comedy, but if there's
Speaker 3: a movie that can make me laugh harder, it's that movie.
Speaker 3: It's it's so goddamn funny.
Speaker 2: So I'm And it features real big fish on screen,
Speaker 2: so I'm happy with that.
Speaker 3: Sure, but not a ska man. But yeah, I draw basketball.
Speaker 3: And we were talking about on the discorders, like if
Speaker 3: they put out like a stupid ass two hundred dollars
Speaker 3: version with like a lazy boy ball, I'm buying three
Speaker 3: for Christmas gifts.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll say Cannibal to the Musical is incredible. It's great
Speaker 2: as a very unique piece on your shelf. It is
Speaker 2: hilarious comedy, similar to South Park, but yet also very
Speaker 2: very different. Basically, you like, you can tell it's the
Speaker 2: same people, but don't expect the same exact tone and
Speaker 2: everything you got.
Speaker 3: From If you've seen the Book of Mormon, I assume
Speaker 3: that would be more in line, much more in line, yes,
Speaker 3: or the South Park movie with all the you know,
Speaker 3: all the songs.
Speaker 2: True, So that's Cannibal the musical. Like I said, they're
Speaker 2: also doing the Toxic Avenger And yes this is off
Speaker 2: to see because this is only coming on Blu ray
Speaker 2: and there is a four K release in the States. However,
Speaker 2: once again the list of special teacher that is not
Speaker 2: on the actual Trauma release of the four K, which
Speaker 2: this does have the same four K scan of the
Speaker 2: director's cuts and all that, so you can expect it
Speaker 2: to look just as good, just a little bit less
Speaker 2: on Blu Ray. This has basically everything you could possibly
Speaker 2: want for the Toxic Avenger on there.
Speaker 3: There's our sweet boy there.
Speaker 2: And then third one Sergeant Kabuki man NYPD. Yet again,
Speaker 2: this has all kinds of ridiculousness on here, tons of cuts,
Speaker 2: tons of interviews, commentaries, pretty much everything that you could
Speaker 2: ever want on here, plus a brand new interview with
Speaker 2: Lloyd Kaufman. These are going to be incredible releases. And
Speaker 2: if you want, there is a bundle pack for all
Speaker 2: three that goes down in price by like around the
Speaker 2: price of shipping essentially, so if you're all free, it's
Speaker 2: kind of like getting all three for free shipping.
Speaker 3: Yeah, KB is saying like Orgasmo, yes, that should probably
Speaker 3: get a non universal studio disrelease. I would assume, yes, please.
Speaker 2: Stan's been waiting for a comprehensive release and here you go,
Speaker 2: perfect for you, all right, So that is that we'll
Speaker 2: get past the drama. Now, speaking of something without drama,
Speaker 2: I interviewed the director of Strange Darling and oh you
Speaker 2: had J T. Muhner on the channel. Check that out
Speaker 2: was a fun one. This has one of my favorite
Speaker 2: moments in one of my interviews yet because he had
Speaker 2: no idea his film was getting a four K release
Speaker 2: and I got to show him the four kuhd release
Speaker 2: coming out in the UK and he reacted in kind
Speaker 2: at that moment for it, which was a big deal.
Speaker 4: That's awesome.
Speaker 2: The next Keynote cult title has been revealed. This is
Speaker 2: coming on November nineteenth, and it is one thousand Convicts
Speaker 2: and a Woman from nineteen seventy one. This is one
Speaker 2: of those ones that I feel like they could have
Speaker 2: gotten a little more, but Keno Colet, they started strong
Speaker 2: and then the supplements kind of started to dwindle. This one.
Speaker 2: Here is an eighteen minute featurette by James McKay with
Speaker 2: some interviews with the assistant director and a stunt actor,
Speaker 2: a couple other people. And then we've got an audio
Speaker 2: commentary by the Alexandra Hay biographer Dylan Dean Staley, featuring
Speaker 2: some archival interviews with the director Ray Austen.
Speaker 3: I never heard of this movie. This poster that I
Speaker 3: will buy. Yeah, you will now watch the movie. This
Speaker 3: kicks ass.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Roddy says, that's not a very good ratio. Yes, right. Next,
Speaker 2: One on one Films in the UK releasing When we
Speaker 2: Were Kings from nineteen ninety six on November fourth on
Speaker 2: Blu Ray. If you've got the previous release of this
Speaker 2: that came out in the States, you're probably not gonna
Speaker 2: want this. This only has an interview with Leon gaest
Speaker 2: On there. However, I belie leave. This is the first
Speaker 2: time it's been released on Blue in the UK, so
Speaker 2: it is good for a friends across the pond.
Speaker 3: I really like one on one films. They're limited black
Speaker 3: label releases are really awesome.
Speaker 2: I hear this one's getting kind of rare already.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah yeah. That ghost Watch release of that is
Speaker 3: like one of my favorite Blu Ray releases. I love
Speaker 3: it so much.
Speaker 2: It's a decent one. Slingshot from twenty twenty four is
Speaker 2: coming on October twenty second from Decal and Bleaker Street.
Speaker 2: First off, what is this art?
Speaker 3: Fake movie?
Speaker 2: Second, if you're going to smash two of these people
Speaker 2: up against the camera to take the picture, why put
Speaker 2: their names? Seems the opposite order.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, really, you could.
Speaker 3: Just mirror the image. Guys. Come on, now, that's.
Speaker 4: That's that's doing your homework and homeroom type of the
Speaker 4: type of.
Speaker 2: Work right there.
Speaker 3: Hey, Charlie, did you know did you know that some
Speaker 3: fears are darker than space? Did you know that?
Speaker 4: I don't know what that means? Do I?
Speaker 2: Sivenar is saying, check this one out? Is this a
Speaker 2: positive review of Slingshot?
Speaker 3: Uh?
Speaker 2: He says this movie was a major mind fuck. Interesting.
Speaker 2: Ronnie says very confusing, So already yeah, major mind fuck
Speaker 2: good job. Huh uh. It's a psychological thriller starr in
Speaker 2: Casey Affleck and Lawrence Fishburne. It follows an elite trio
Speaker 2: of astronauts aboard a years long, possibly compromise mission to
Speaker 2: Saturn's moon Titan. As the team gears up for a
Speaker 2: highly dangerous slingshot maneuver that will either catapult them to
Speaker 2: Titan or into deep space. It becomes increasingly difficult for
Speaker 2: one astronaut to maintain his grip on reality.
Speaker 3: Hmm. So you're saying that they're in a bit of
Speaker 3: a slingshot.
Speaker 4: By Michael Hofs who did fourteen oh eight and the
Speaker 4: Right and Derailed. I've seen one of those. I saw
Speaker 4: fourteen o eight in theaters.
Speaker 7: Ours, Aaron says, like, Bobby oh Man, goodness, all right.
Speaker 2: Next one is It Ends with Us, the Blake Lively
Speaker 2: movie that I feel like nobody saw November fifth, Blu
Speaker 2: ray DVD from Sony. I did not see this one, Charlie,
Speaker 2: you see this one.
Speaker 4: Nope, didn't read the book barely. I know the book
Speaker 4: is just as it wasn't. There a lot of controversy
Speaker 4: that came with this movie, and also the book was
Speaker 4: a huge bestseller, but some people considered it problematic. That's
Speaker 4: really all I know. Like, I don't know much about it.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing, Ryan, it feels like nobody's seen it.
Speaker 3: This movie made like one hundred and eighty million dollars.
Speaker 2: It's ridiculous.
Speaker 3: Go with God.
Speaker 2: I don't know, oh Man.
Speaker 3: Whatever you say. People saw it, okay.
Speaker 2: Another movie people saw Oppenheimer already getting an Ultimate Collector's edition.
Speaker 2: This is coming on November eighteenth in the UK from Universal,
Speaker 2: and it will have a sixty page abridged Unleashing Oppenheimer book,
Speaker 2: a soft touch and spot UV rigid slipcase, three disc
Speaker 2: gloss and deboss steel book, double sided poster and art cards,
Speaker 2: and special features on the bonus disc that I believe
Speaker 2: are new compared to last year. Already, I thought.
Speaker 3: Mill you've seen was already putting out Unleash and Oppenheimer,
Speaker 3: thank you, thank you.
Speaker 2: That was Unleashing opens heiny there we are now very close.
Speaker 4: I really this was one of the movies that everybody
Speaker 4: loved last year that like, it's my favorite Nolan in
Speaker 4: a long time. But I've realized and this is definitely
Speaker 4: a me thing that Nolan. I still love Memento in
Speaker 4: the Dark Knight, and I think those movies are great
Speaker 4: and have a lot of fondness for Nolan's earlier work,
Speaker 4: but this movie left me far colder than it did
Speaker 4: a lot of other people. And I will probably watch
Speaker 4: them get at some point, but not as over the
Speaker 4: moon for it as most people. I think it's it's
Speaker 4: He's I think there are some of the best sequences
Speaker 4: he's done a long time. I've seen in the Gymnasium
Speaker 4: is pretty pretty powerful. I just don't think Nolan understands
Speaker 4: how human beings interact, which is not fair because I,
Speaker 4: you know, you could say the same thing about Track,
Speaker 4: who the fun? And then my response to that is,
Speaker 4: who cares? It's fun?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 3: But yeah, yeah, I didn't catch up on this. I
Speaker 3: was too busy watching Let Me See twenty twenty three
Speaker 3: five nights at Freddy's. I'm sorry for him, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: I love how Ronnie's comment about the last movie also
Speaker 2: works for Oppenheimer. I haven't seen it, but a lot
Speaker 2: of people say it goes very easy on the abuser.
Speaker 4: Hey, now, Leon, I do think Killian Murphy's amazing in Oppenheimer,
Speaker 4: I just it was great. Yeah, I just it's interesting.
Speaker 4: I finally caught up with JFK, and clearly you know,
Speaker 4: and obviously knew that JFK had influenced Oppenheimer and Oliver
Speaker 4: Stone and I don't always get along either, But I'm
Speaker 4: just like, oh, this is the unhinged Biopit like like,
Speaker 4: it's not even a biopic, but like, I guess it
Speaker 4: is good. It's just it's a biopic based on potential bullshit.
Speaker 4: But I'm just like, oh, this is unhinged in the
Speaker 4: way I wanted Oppenheimer to be, and I feel like
Speaker 4: Nolan can be such a control freak that I almost
Speaker 4: wanted it to be something else, but that's not fair
Speaker 4: for what it is. I think it's good a movie
Speaker 4: that I will definitely read, visit over time, and hope
Speaker 4: that I just will go, oh, I was wrong the
Speaker 4: first time, Like, but yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 2: I'm loving what you're saying about Nolan. I gotta ask,
Speaker 2: how do you feel about the prestige?
Speaker 4: I do like the Prestige, I'm not I'm not as
Speaker 4: crazy about it as some people. I like it. I'd
Speaker 4: consider it like I definitely I like it more than Oppenheimer.
Speaker 4: I think weirdly, Memento is my favorite, and it has
Speaker 4: been since high school, and there's a lot of nostalgia
Speaker 4: as a I have towards that movie, which is certainly
Speaker 4: coloring every viewing I've had as an adult. But I
Speaker 4: feel like there's something about Nolan's movies when his brother
Speaker 4: helps write them, that helps with the emotional connection. I
Speaker 4: have to them. Did he write actually, did Jonathan co
Speaker 4: write the Prestige or is that just.
Speaker 2: I think he did. I may be wrong, but I
Speaker 2: feel like that, Yeah, I'm not sure.
Speaker 4: Yeah, then my argument doesn't really hold water. Yeah, I
Speaker 4: like it. I feel like Nolan kind of uses characters
Speaker 4: like chess pieces. And there are certainly filmmakers where I'm
Speaker 4: sure you could say I enjoy their work and they
Speaker 4: do the same thing, and I will say this, I mean,
Speaker 4: he's keeping Every movie that Nolan makes is an event
Speaker 4: that I am always excited to go to, and they
Speaker 4: are original works that are not franchise films or you know,
Speaker 4: sequels or whatnot. I mean, unless you have the Batman movies.
Speaker 4: But it's interesting to me how like his heightens over
Speaker 4: his heightens over dramatic, like I like when he's kind
Speaker 4: of in pulp mode. And I know that Memento can
Speaker 4: kind of fall into that with like just the standard
Speaker 4: film more. But there's something about Mento and the focus
Speaker 4: on three main characters that when he starts, you know,
Speaker 4: I think some people can make the same argument about
Speaker 4: Wes Anderson when the dollhouses get too big, and it's
Speaker 4: more about the ways everything can intertwine with one another.
Speaker 4: I feel like an element sometimes more than I like Nolan.
Speaker 4: But now I'm just going and I feel like Oppenheimer
Speaker 4: for like forty five minutes, so I'll just shut up.
Speaker 4: But anyway, all right.
Speaker 2: Next, let's talk about a movie that's celebrating its twentieth anniversary,
Speaker 2: Sean of the Dead getting a four K steel book
Speaker 2: from Universal, also getting a standard four K release of
Speaker 2: the twentieth anniversary edition. Now this one is an interesting
Speaker 2: one because the original four K did not get rave reviews.
Speaker 2: But this has been upgraded with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos,
Speaker 2: and there's a new piece with Edgar Wright on the
Speaker 2: twenty year anniversary on this, So if you're a super
Speaker 2: fan of the movie, you might want to pick this up.
Speaker 2: I actually really like the Stu book on this. Except
Speaker 2: for me, it's really weird to put the director as
Speaker 2: a character.
Speaker 4: On that is strange. Everything else I think is really
Speaker 4: cool though.
Speaker 3: Yeah I get why.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd say this is still my favorite of oh
Speaker 4: your rates films, and also you know the ones that
Speaker 4: he's of the Sorry I'm forgetting the name of.
Speaker 3: The trilogy cornetto Yeah, yeah, I have the Triple Blu
Speaker 3: ray pack. I've been wanting to get the four K
Speaker 3: Triple pack, but now that I'm hearing the Shawn of
Speaker 3: the Dead, which I'm pretty sure was the only one
Speaker 3: shot on film from that three pack, doesn't look the greatest.
Speaker 3: Now I'm just like, oh, so I have to buy
Speaker 3: two different things shoot me in the face.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well now, but at this point they'll probably do
Speaker 2: the same for the next two and release the twentieth anniversary.
Speaker 3: Of both.
Speaker 2: Great. I love this movie. I still think Hot Fuzz
Speaker 2: is better, and I appreciate it World's End way more
Speaker 2: than most people. I think it deserves a rewatch that yeah,
Speaker 2: not willing to give it. I like it.
Speaker 3: I've only seen it once though, but yeah, seen seventy
Speaker 3: eight times.
Speaker 4: Probably same. I do like The World's End more than
Speaker 4: most people, but agree that Yeah, the World's End, I
Speaker 4: you know, has a lot of pathos to it that
Speaker 4: I find found pretty moving when I saw it, what
Speaker 4: like a letter of years ago in the theater. Has
Speaker 4: it really been that long? Good word?
Speaker 3: That's right?
Speaker 2: Yeah boy. Next up is Freedkin's Bug, getting the four
Speaker 2: K release from Keno on November twenty sixth. This is
Speaker 2: the one that they canceled and is now back on
Speaker 2: simply because Friedkin passed away. This is of course starring
Speaker 2: Ashley Judd, Michael Shannon, Harry Connick, Jude and like I
Speaker 2: mentioned earlier, no new extras on this at all.
Speaker 4: I love this movie. I do we.
Speaker 2: Lose you, Charlie.
Speaker 3: Charlie, you're still there?
Speaker 4: Oh oh am?
Speaker 2: I well now I can hear you. Yeah, go ahead, Ken, Yeah.
Speaker 3: I just got the imprint of this like whenever that
Speaker 3: got announced. I got that and like Lenny at the
Speaker 3: same time. So I think I'm good on upgrading this.
Speaker 3: But top tier Oklahoma cinema right here, let me tell you.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Do any of you remember how they advertise this
Speaker 4: movie with like a forty five second trailer.
Speaker 3: They're like, we can't advertise this.
Speaker 4: Well, they implied that it was gonna be like literal.
Speaker 4: The whole movie is ambiguous, I mean, and in my
Speaker 4: opinion not even that really, but they had to sell
Speaker 4: it like it actually was about Buggy. Yeah, and I
Speaker 4: believe correct me if I'm wrong. I have a weird
Speaker 4: memory that I think this opened the same day as
Speaker 4: the third Pirates of the Caribbean movie and I remember
Speaker 4: going to my movie theater because I was a teenager,
Speaker 4: and you know, we all went and saw Pirates on
Speaker 4: opening night. But I'm pretty sure that Bug was just
Speaker 4: banished to like the you know, the small theater in
Speaker 4: the corner, just like it was kidding. It was that
Speaker 4: kid at recess. That's just like, I mean, I'll hang
Speaker 4: out with someone, but if you don't want to, it's fine,
Speaker 4: just like Kicking Rock basically like they they.
Speaker 3: Did in fact come out the same day, Charlie.
Speaker 4: I don't know why my brain works this way.
Speaker 2: Listen.
Speaker 3: We used to have counter programming like this. Okay, yeah,
Speaker 3: I go, Pirates series sold out? How about we go
Speaker 3: see uh Bug? Yeah all right, yeah yeah that.
Speaker 4: Note actually Jude's best performance.
Speaker 2: But anyway, Oh interesting Cattle Drive coming from Keno on
Speaker 2: November nineteenth. This is from nineteen fifty one with Dean
Speaker 2: Stockwell and Joel McCrae. Yeah, a lot of people seem
Speaker 2: to be excited about this one. I've never seen of
Speaker 2: it never. I don't know anything about it. This one either,
Speaker 2: one of you know these classic westerns.
Speaker 4: I do love classic westerns, but I haven't really gotten
Speaker 4: into them until let's say fairly recently. I don't know
Speaker 4: this one at all.
Speaker 3: As Sibner is saying, how do you think this movie
Speaker 3: compares to Jade? That's what I need to.
Speaker 4: I'm assuming that means bug yes.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 4: Jade is one of those weird movies where the opening
Speaker 4: shot is like, oh shit, like like okay, this is
Speaker 4: totally a freakin movie, and then it gets a little boring,
Speaker 4: and then something insane will happen, and then it gets
Speaker 4: boring again, and then I don't.
Speaker 3: Remember the greatest chase scenes ever gets boring again.
Speaker 4: Awesome. I don't remember who said it, but I think
Speaker 4: it was a podcast that was like it is one
Speaker 4: of those movies that just kind of ends where you're like, wait,
Speaker 4: the movie's over, and then the movie itself is like
Speaker 4: I guess like.
Speaker 3: The theatrical version is the endia to that. It's just
Speaker 3: like you literally just gave up. The directions cut makes sense,
Speaker 3: but the theatrical version legitimately just gives up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it's kind of nuts. That's the version I saw.
Speaker 3: It's just a not a good movie. Everybody check it out.
Speaker 2: Perfect perfect recommendation. Next up is one that caught some
Speaker 2: people by surprise. October twenty second, Warner Brothers is releasing
Speaker 2: The Hitcher on four K and on Blu Ray their
Speaker 2: own damn self in the US thanks to the Digital
Speaker 2: Bits Bill Hunt dropping this info if you were wanting
Speaker 2: this one. It is the same scan and restoration as
Speaker 2: the second site, but as far as special features, this
Speaker 2: has an audio commentary by Robert Harmon and Eric Red
Speaker 2: and a new video interview with Robert Harmon and a
Speaker 2: trailer and that is it, which compared to the second site,
Speaker 2: that is next to nothing. However, the hard part here
Speaker 2: for a lot of people, and I'm I'm no way
Speaker 2: telling people please go out and buy this. Please don't
Speaker 2: take me for saying that. However, I'm willing to bet.
Speaker 2: Internally at Warner Brothers, they're announcing this and saying, well, shit,
Speaker 2: if the Hitcher does well, we need to release a
Speaker 2: whole bunch more catalog titles. Maybe people will start buying
Speaker 2: these like crazy, And honestly, it's not gonna do that great,
Speaker 2: probably because most people that are buying physical media have
Speaker 2: already pre ordered from the UK.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and also, why would you wait? It's like they
Speaker 3: started thinking about this like five Like what how long
Speaker 3: has second site's been doing the Hitcher for like what
Speaker 3: like nine and a half years.
Speaker 2: Now, jiel Well, yeah, it's been announced for about three years.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like you could have on this and like everybody
Speaker 3: that really has been waiting for the Hitch already has
Speaker 3: that shit pre ordered. So movie itself though, Yeah, that's
Speaker 3: fun stuff.
Speaker 2: I am glad it's getting released here. I think that
Speaker 2: means more people will have a chance to buy it,
Speaker 2: because as much as we all in the chat, I
Speaker 2: want to believe that everybody in the world imports physical media,
Speaker 2: most people do not. And just being able to go
Speaker 2: on Amazon and type in the Hitcher and see something
Speaker 2: pop up as a local release, this is a big deal.
Speaker 2: The other big deal too, The four K is twenty
Speaker 2: five dollars right now on Amazon to pre orders. Wow,
Speaker 2: that is a damn good price. Yeah. So even though
Speaker 2: probably seventy five percent of this chat has already pre
Speaker 2: ordered the second site release, this is still a very
Speaker 2: good thing that it's getting released. M all right. We
Speaker 2: got some titles coming from Umbrella and I know next
Speaker 2: to nothing about this drop, but this seems like a
Speaker 2: Kevin drops. So let's see if I'm right on that.
Speaker 2: January fifteenth, they are releasing Severance from two thousand and six.
Speaker 2: Is this one you've seen, Kevin, No, I have not.
Speaker 4: I have back when I had Netflix delivering DVDs to
Speaker 4: my house in high school, but it has been so
Speaker 4: long that I do not remember anything about it. So
Speaker 4: I have, but if you showed it to me again,
Speaker 4: it would probably be a pretty fresh experience. So yeah,
Speaker 4: I remember it being fine. But yeah, it.
Speaker 2: Is one that a lot of people in the comments
Speaker 2: seem to be very excited for.
Speaker 3: Not good.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I just recently, like before we got on Heroes on
Speaker 3: Umbrella because I was just like, I need to get
Speaker 3: the four K qure and then I looked at the
Speaker 3: shipping and I was just like I need to be
Speaker 3: able to get free shipping from Umbrella. So I added
Speaker 3: on like two other things, and I was like, now
Speaker 3: it's nine hundred dollars, but it's free shipping. But that
Speaker 3: Cure four case set that they have is beautiful. I'll
Speaker 3: probably get the trash Humps limited, but not the full
Speaker 3: limited version or whatever.
Speaker 2: The forty dollars release, not the one hundred dollars release.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's they don't have the limited edition of Bully anymore,
Speaker 3: which I'm upsete quick but instead I'm just getting Martyrs,
Speaker 3: because of course I will.
Speaker 2: This one is as usual, coming with a forty eight
Speaker 2: page book with a whole bunch behind the scenes stuff.
Speaker 2: It's got a hard box and then a slipcase, got
Speaker 2: eight art cards, versible poster, and it's a numbered box.
Speaker 2: And then as far as supplements, they've got an audio
Speaker 2: commentary with Christopher Smith, the director, and a whole bunch
Speaker 2: of people that were in this film. We got a
Speaker 2: new interview with a writer and director. We've got a
Speaker 2: new interview with the actor Andy Nyman, a bunch of
Speaker 2: featurettes from back in the day, some deleted scenes and outtakes.
Speaker 2: It sounds good. I'd like to see it for sure.
Speaker 3: Then spend eighty dollars on it. Ryan Long, it looks incredible,
Speaker 3: like Umbrella's limited releases always look so good. I don't think.
Speaker 3: I don't think I have any Unbrella anything, but I
Speaker 3: definitely that Q four K might be my first four
Speaker 3: A into them.
Speaker 2: It's dangerous, dangerous to dip that toe, for sure.
Speaker 3: I'm already getting into Nova Media. It's fine.
Speaker 2: Those are real dangerous. Next one from them is Metal
Speaker 2: Skin from nineteen ninety four, again Blu Ray on January fifteenth,
Speaker 2: Same Thing, forty eight page book with a bunch of
Speaker 2: behind the scenes experiences and art with essays, hard box
Speaker 2: case a eight eight art cards, a reversible poster. It's numbered,
Speaker 2: and then Same Thing audio commentary with the director, Jeffrey Wright, producer,
Speaker 2: composer DP few other people, brand new Q and A
Speaker 2: with Jeffrey Wright and for the producer Daniel Sharf filmed
Speaker 2: a Fantastic Film fest where they screened Metal Skin, some
Speaker 2: original interviews from ninety five and Loverable. It's a short film,
Speaker 2: and then the motion picture soundtrack is in this as well.
Speaker 3: Goodness. Yeah, I've never even heard of this, but never
Speaker 3: heard of it, I believe probably on my radar.
Speaker 4: I don't know, I've never heard of Metal Skin, and
Speaker 4: weirdly the only when I saw the title lover Boy,
Speaker 4: even though I haven't seen this movie, I was like,
Speaker 4: is that the movie Kevin Bacon directed. I was just like,
Speaker 4: oh no, that's a completely different movie.
Speaker 3: A movie I've seen. It's tell ask me one thing
Speaker 3: about it. I would get it wrong.
Speaker 4: Isn't it about like like kiis Sedgwick's a bad mom
Speaker 4: or something?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Basically I watched it because Sandra Bullocks and it's CenTra
Speaker 3: Bullocks Center for thirty seconds.
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's great. Next one is Lars and the
Speaker 2: Real Girl, the only one that I knew anything about
Speaker 2: when this got announced, also January fifteenth on Blu Ray
Speaker 2: in Australia. Most people know a little bit about this,
Speaker 2: this movie, so I'll just say same thing. Forty eight
Speaker 2: page book with essays, and then they've got the hard
Speaker 2: box slipcase. They've got eight art cards, reversible poster, numbered release,
Speaker 2: and then they got an audio commentary with the writer
Speaker 2: and critic Thomas Caldwell on this audio essay by Josh Neilson,
Speaker 2: and then a couple of featurettes in a one deleted scene.
Speaker 3: Hmmm.
Speaker 4: I have never seen this, and it's always been on
Speaker 4: my radar. It's been on my radar since it came
Speaker 4: out in two thousand and seven, and I somehow have
Speaker 4: just never gotten around to it because I know it
Speaker 4: has a huge following, or you know, devoted following at
Speaker 4: the very least.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I think I saw it like after Drive
Speaker 3: came out. I thought it was fine. I wish that
Speaker 3: screen Factory would have done this because it would have
Speaker 3: been like nine hundred dollars, and you know what they
Speaker 3: would have included riot A giant actual doll no giant snowblobe.
Speaker 4: I think most people would agree this is Craig Gillespie's
Speaker 4: best film by a mile.
Speaker 2: Like.
Speaker 3: Probably, I don't know. I unfortunately every time I somehow
Speaker 3: watch one of his movies, it's just exited my brain.
Speaker 3: So do some research.
Speaker 4: I mean, I've seen it, Tanya. I have not seen
Speaker 4: Cruella or Dumb Money or Mister Woodcock. I just know
Speaker 4: that a lot of people whenever Craig Gillespie's brought up,
Speaker 4: they a lot of people I know, go oh, but
Speaker 4: he did Lars and the Real Girl. That one's wonderful.
Speaker 3: And I remember liking the remake of Friday Night.
Speaker 2: I was about to say that the Friday remake was decent.
Speaker 4: I never saw that movie. Is that now I saw
Speaker 4: the original?
Speaker 2: I have not.
Speaker 4: I remember the remake being like it's someone describing it
Speaker 4: is it's a horror movie where Colin Farrell wants to
Speaker 4: fuck your mom.
Speaker 3: Kind of think that's everyone of Callin Ferrell movies. Is
Speaker 3: even even Tigerland or whatever that one's called.
Speaker 2: You just changed the genre out. He always wants to
Speaker 2: fuck your mom.
Speaker 3: Though, Yeah, him and Daredevil Man, Him and the bad Man.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately he wants fucking.
Speaker 2: This does feel like a Charlie movie. I will say
Speaker 2: that it's it's decent. It's never been my favorite, but yeah,
Speaker 2: it's worth it.
Speaker 4: My roommate's a big fan. Definitely need to catch up
Speaker 4: with it at some point. Maybe now is a good time.
Speaker 2: That would be a good time. Next one is Creep
Speaker 2: from two thousand and four, not the other Creep with
Speaker 2: Mark Duplas. I wish it was the other one. This
Speaker 2: one forty eight page book with some behind the scenes
Speaker 2: again hard box slipcase, and then eight art cards and
Speaker 2: reversible poster just like the rest of them. Very reminiscent
Speaker 2: of the Midnight Meat Train cover Faster There.
Speaker 3: I saw this like a little bit after it came out.
Speaker 3: Don't remember it. I remember not really caring about it,
Speaker 3: but I was also like, I don't know fucking twelve,
Speaker 3: but I've always wanted to rewatch it. Was he fucking
Speaker 3: my mom on the phone with Yes he was, Christopher.
Speaker 3: I'm very sorry to bring you this information.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, I've never seen Creep. I would like to.
Speaker 2: This one has Oh by the way, I forgot to say.
Speaker 2: This is the same director that we were just talking
Speaker 2: about him to go. It's also the same guy that
Speaker 2: did Triangle.
Speaker 3: Oh oh lot and Umbrella just put that out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yep.
Speaker 4: Triangle, I yeah, has its moments. I mean, Melissa George
Speaker 4: is in Triangle, and I've always thought she's an underappreciated.
Speaker 2: Actor, and especially in that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she's very, very good. There's some images in Triangle
Speaker 4: that have stuck with me, even if I don't remember
Speaker 4: everything about it.
Speaker 2: Speaking of mind fuck movies, triangles up there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's I want to be able to say this
Speaker 4: without spoiling anything, there's a sequence in which you see
Speaker 4: a pile of bodies that is very memorable. I will
Speaker 4: say that.
Speaker 3: Idea that that's a big, like a big horror movie
Speaker 3: from like the past, like twenty years that I haven't seen,
Speaker 3: and even that it's not like huge, but it's well known.
Speaker 4: I'm not even sure that got like a huge theatrical release.
Speaker 4: It seemed like one of those that became like a
Speaker 4: huge like like word of mouth on DVD thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I feel like it did very well on
Speaker 2: the Netflix DVD for like three years after it came out.
Speaker 3: I was about to say that is either an early
Speaker 3: Netflix streaming movie or a Netflix on DVD ass movie,
Speaker 3: that's for sure.
Speaker 4: Also, Liam Hemsworth, isn't it for some reason? I don't
Speaker 4: remember why.
Speaker 2: Well, because it's an Aussie film.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was about to say, like another Aussie film
Speaker 3: like that, that horror comedy Black Sheep that went triple
Speaker 3: platinum on Netflix DVD.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you that one is Kiwi not Ossy. Fuck.
Speaker 3: Don't come for me.
Speaker 4: And people are already coming for me because I didn't
Speaker 4: like Oppenheimer.
Speaker 2: Sorry everyone. So yeah, uh. This one also has a
Speaker 2: couple of new interviews in this. We've got the audio
Speaker 2: commentary with the director. I'm pretty soaked on this. They
Speaker 2: have a visual essay from Jared Gahan that's called Mind
Speaker 2: the Gap, a History of British locomotive Horror. I want
Speaker 2: to know all of the details that could possibly be
Speaker 2: known about that.
Speaker 3: There's more than one all right.
Speaker 2: Uh yeah, some old archival Q and a's featurettes making
Speaker 2: of stuff like that. This to me is one of
Speaker 2: the most compelling from this month for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I definitely want to rewatch it. It seems like something
Speaker 3: that's probably on shutter all the time, but I just haven't. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm being told I sound like Giovanni Rubisi, sir no,
Speaker 3: and what film? If it's a film from nineteen ninety nine,
Speaker 3: I'm kicking you out.
Speaker 4: Uh perfect stranger.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: I was just like, you gotta lower that down. There's
Speaker 3: ninety all right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we were just talking about Yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Was like, who is he in that movie? Is he's
Speaker 3: the little kid?
Speaker 2: Finally from Umbrellas Hounds of Love. This is one that
Speaker 2: seems like more people have known. This is from twenty sixteen,
Speaker 2: also coming on Blu ray and this one same thing,
Speaker 2: forty eight page book, hard box release, art cards, poster,
Speaker 2: all that same stuff. Two new audio commentaries, one with
Speaker 2: the director, one with the critic Simon Morado. We've got
Speaker 2: Hounds of Love and Australian Crime cinema visualizay by Travis Johnson,
Speaker 2: some interviews and some short films. This looks like a
Speaker 2: pretty damn good release too.
Speaker 4: This is a brutal movie. I thought it was very
Speaker 4: powerful and effective, but I know a lot of people
Speaker 4: were pissed off by it. Has anyone else seen this one?
Speaker 3: It's called a trybeck. I didn't like it. Yeah, and
Speaker 3: then by the end of it when it ends on
Speaker 3: a Joy Division song. I was like, you didn't earn that,
Speaker 3: go back to the drawing board.
Speaker 4: It's good, it's I had a hard time shaking this
Speaker 4: one off for a little bit, but yeah, it's it was. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's uh. It's a hard one to forget, whether you
Speaker 4: like it or not, and it's a hard movie to
Speaker 4: like to begin with.
Speaker 2: But yeah, I've not seen this one. I think if
Speaker 2: I remember, iright, Arrow put this out years ago. Really,
Speaker 2: I think only in the UK or something. I have
Speaker 2: not fact checked myself, but I feel like they did.
Speaker 3: Yes they did.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah, God, that had to have been like
Speaker 2: twenty long twenty nineteen something like that.
Speaker 3: In January twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2: Wow. Yeah, how does my same as Charlie. I don't
Speaker 2: know how my memory works like that. He's got theatrical,
Speaker 2: I've got physical. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh I can't remember release dates for shit. If somebody's like,
Speaker 3: when did the in the Line of Duty box that
Speaker 3: can come out? I was like, in the past, I
Speaker 3: don't know.
Speaker 2: Some time.
Speaker 4: In high school they were like, what was the date
Speaker 4: of this trade agreement? That would be like, I don't know,
Speaker 4: do you know what they I know who killed Me.
Speaker 4: It came out, Oh yeah, the same day as Thissen's
Speaker 4: movie in two thousand and seven.
Speaker 2: Oh that's pretty damn good. All right, Well, we talked
Speaker 2: about this one momentarily earlier, Blink Twice getting a Blu
Speaker 2: Ray release from Warner Brothers on November fifth. No word
Speaker 2: on any bonus feature, so I'm guessing none, which I
Speaker 2: feel like this probably had some decent ones, considering it
Speaker 2: was literally just a bunch of friends filming on an island.
Speaker 2: They had all the time in the world, and we
Speaker 2: got nothing extra on this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you'd also consider there to be at least something
Speaker 4: considering in Zoe Kravitz's The.
Speaker 2: Beat your Debut right right it is? Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I also didn't know that she and Channing Tatum
Speaker 4: were together until they were in the criteria.
Speaker 2: Clock I didn't.
Speaker 3: That's exactly the same thing I did. I was just like, Oh,
Speaker 3: they're cute. That's nice.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a big one. Next up, another big one.
Speaker 2: I Love Lucy the Complete Series coming on Blu Ray
Speaker 2: on November fifth, and just so everybody knows for sure,
Speaker 2: this is going to have the remastered Lucy Desi Comedy
Speaker 2: Hour and newly colorized and never before released Lucy and
Speaker 2: the Loving Cup episode. They've got some of the original
Speaker 2: broadcasts and then some original cast commentaries on this, the
Speaker 2: original openings and closings, a portion of fifty nine, and
Speaker 2: CBS's Fall preview special An Eye on CBS featuring Lucille
Speaker 2: Ball and Vivian Vance. And this is probably going to
Speaker 2: be horrendous packaging that a lot of people will really want.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's CBS, so it's probably gonna be
Speaker 3: the same topic packaging I have for the Twilight Zone
Speaker 3: Complete series, where it's just one big old thing, you know.
Speaker 3: I wonder how much has MSRP been announced for this
Speaker 3: or anything?
Speaker 2: Not yet?
Speaker 4: No, Okay, the artwork looks like they're one of the
Speaker 4: Mommy Dearest posters.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 4: I don't think it's what they're going for.
Speaker 3: And the title of the show looks like a watermark,
Speaker 3: not that it not that it's.
Speaker 4: All Yeah, it does actual does it?
Speaker 2: Does?
Speaker 4: It looks like my email address on some screeners that
Speaker 4: I've been getting.
Speaker 3: Yeah, oversized clam package. I mean, the Twilight it's fine.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I'm pretty sure I got that on
Speaker 3: like a Black Friday s So for like thirty dollars.
Speaker 3: I can't complain too much.
Speaker 2: I mean, it'sah yeah, I would not be surprised if
Speaker 2: this came out at about one hundred twenty bucks. I'd
Speaker 2: be pretty spot on there, Chris, I'd agree.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I wish I was on last week to talk about
Speaker 3: that Prisoner fucking crazy shit. How many discs was that?
Speaker 2: Like?
Speaker 3: One hundred and.
Speaker 2: Fifty seventy eight? I think I think I.
Speaker 3: Did the math. It was like if you put even
Speaker 3: if it's all st if you put that shit on
Speaker 3: Blu Ray, it would have been like maybe like fifteen
Speaker 3: or twenty disc I don't understand. I do not understand.
Speaker 2: I love that. Somebody in the chat last week pointed
Speaker 2: out that when you open the box, they play the
Speaker 2: sound of the prison door closes.
Speaker 3: Your bank account's gonna sound like every time you check it.
Speaker 3: After that, much of that like five hundred and sixty
Speaker 3: like Australian.
Speaker 2: Dollars US it was like four fifty something like that,
Speaker 2: and seven seven kilograms to ship, so like almost fifteen
Speaker 2: pounds or over fifteen pounds. I think something like.
Speaker 3: That, Honey, it's me or the Prisoner Complete series box.
Speaker 2: Out, Yeah, had one hundred and seventy five discs, Thanks you, Ray.
Speaker 3: And that's more than the Dark Shadows one too.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Dark Shadows way less than that.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, that's insane.
Speaker 2: Yeah all right. Uh we got a a bunch of
Speaker 2: these Mod four K releases coming from Warner Brothers on
Speaker 2: October twenty second. First one up as Vacation from twenty
Speaker 2: fifth teen. I never saw this, but literally everyone that
Speaker 2: I know that did thought it was surprisingly decent.
Speaker 3: Hmmm, have they been doing made on demand four k's,
Speaker 3: Yeah they have, Okay.
Speaker 4: I have weirdly only seen Christmas Vacation out of any
Speaker 4: vacation movie like including Yeah, Big Big Blind Spot for me.
Speaker 2: Vegas is great.
Speaker 3: Yeah, mister Papa Georgia, we love them.
Speaker 2: We'll just text me to say they're lying to you.
Speaker 2: Vacation is not good. Oh man. The next one is tag.
Speaker 2: This is from twenty eighteen, and this is a hell
Speaker 2: of a cast ed Helm's Jake Johnson, Hannibal bress Is,
Speaker 2: Lea Fisher, I said his last name weird. Hannibal Buris,
Speaker 2: John Ham, Jeremy Render and then this movie is super
Speaker 2: fun until the last like eight minutes, and then it
Speaker 2: gets super fucking weird with the carriage storyline, what what Yes?
Speaker 2: Superla one movie and then they just go off of
Speaker 2: a cliff.
Speaker 4: And and in the last eight minutes of a movie.
Speaker 4: There's a comedy with.
Speaker 3: These people film called Tag.
Speaker 4: There's a miscarriage.
Speaker 2: Yeah. If nobody has seen this, I suggest everybody go
Speaker 2: watch it, because that last moment sticks with you, and
Speaker 2: not for the best reasons. It's it's certainly weird and
Speaker 2: feels very out of place. It takes it from like
Speaker 2: a high B plus very decent comedy to what the
Speaker 2: ship like this you just did not know how to
Speaker 2: end a movie and said, let's throw some emotion at it.
Speaker 4: It sounds like they tried to like like that sounds
Speaker 4: like fat girl or something like. They're just like they're
Speaker 4: just like and we're just gonna throw this curve ball
Speaker 4: at yeah, like, oh I can't two.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right, I forget about what is going on.
Speaker 2: Game Night is definitely way better. Game Night rules.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Game Night's hysterical.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Anyways, enough about miscarriages. The next one is The
Speaker 2: Intern from twenty fifteen. I've never seen this, but I've
Speaker 2: heard I've heard this described as the best film to
Speaker 2: watch on an airplane ever. Probably.
Speaker 3: It's probably my favorite Nancy Myers movie. But it's fun.
Speaker 4: I've never seen it either.
Speaker 2: I need to.
Speaker 4: I need to catch up with Nancy Myers. I haven't
Speaker 4: even seen The Holiday.
Speaker 2: I need to.
Speaker 3: Oh, well, you have to take off PTO like for
Speaker 3: two fucking weeks to watch that ninety minute long movie.
Speaker 3: Even it's longer than Sott and Tongo and shit, I
Speaker 3: just agree.
Speaker 2: I really liked The Holiday anyways.
Speaker 3: I don't think it's bad. I just think it's so long.
Speaker 3: It's so.
Speaker 2: It does have pacing problems, that's for sure. Uh. Brian
Speaker 2: says he worked on this.
Speaker 3: Did everybody in chat to work on every movie that
Speaker 3: we're talking about. Sibner also said he worked on Perfect Strangers.
Speaker 3: I need to pick this person's brain.
Speaker 2: De Sibner and The Wonderment Project are both New York boys.
Speaker 2: They've both got.
Speaker 3: Gotcha.
Speaker 2: Aaron says this was surprisingly fun. Yeah, Craig says, love
Speaker 2: to Nero and this is fine, but his character is
Speaker 2: a little too perfect.
Speaker 3: He's an old man, of course he's perfect.
Speaker 2: Come on now, Uh, this is hilarious. So December sixteenth
Speaker 2: in the UK, they are giving signs the four K
Speaker 2: Steel Book. I just hope they go in and spell
Speaker 2: Shyamalan's last name right.
Speaker 4: Before Oh no.
Speaker 2: Come.
Speaker 4: I was about to say, this is so much better
Speaker 4: than that piece of shit.
Speaker 3: However, but I didn't even notice that. Wow, why God,
Speaker 3: what if they put it out and then recall it
Speaker 3: and then people start selling this on EBA for four
Speaker 3: hundred dollars? I need to pre order this also?
Speaker 4: Is that just maybe it isn't even like is that
Speaker 4: just the plant? So there's so the earth is just
Speaker 4: a crop fields?
Speaker 3: Yes, I mean that sounds it was an original poster
Speaker 3: for the movie. I mean I was, Yes, I wish
Speaker 3: it was just the orange one sheet with you know,
Speaker 3: the actual crop. But I mean it's better than the
Speaker 3: AI mess that we got. And you think this is bad, Charlie,
Speaker 3: wait till you see the next one.
Speaker 2: I will point out before we go to the next one.
Speaker 2: These two are both HMV exclusives, which means they don't
Speaker 2: ship anywhere unless you're in the UK. So good luck
Speaker 2: trying to get one of these. It's gonna be rough.
Speaker 2: But like like Kevin said, here is also releasing the
Speaker 2: same day, December sixteenth, the four K steal book for
Speaker 2: the sixth.
Speaker 4: Oh stop it it's so bad.
Speaker 2: This is such a great movie, and this is the
Speaker 2: Steel Book art.
Speaker 4: That doesn't make sense.
Speaker 3: Do you look closer, you can see Jo's face, But.
Speaker 4: What isn't there just one shot of Hailey Joel Osmond
Speaker 4: grabbing the door knob?
Speaker 3: What would would No, that's what the whole movie was about, Charlie.
Speaker 3: If this, If this was a DVD back in like
Speaker 3: the mid two thousands, where they had very oddly specific
Speaker 3: special edition titles, it would have been like the Doorknob Edition.
Speaker 4: I've been waiting for this one in particular because I mean,
Speaker 4: what a hot take. This is my favorite Shyamalan movie.
Speaker 4: But like, I've been waiting for this movie to come
Speaker 4: out on four K for so long. But god, it
Speaker 4: does look like a skunk.
Speaker 3: Oh sorry, Signs is definitely my favorite. So I want
Speaker 3: that Steel Book, but I don't want to import it,
Speaker 3: so a wait and see if the US will take it.
Speaker 2: But what is this?
Speaker 3: What is this?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 4: Sorry?
Speaker 2: All I was gonna say is they could have just
Speaker 2: put the back on the front and it would have
Speaker 2: been better. If this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's awesome, that's the poster.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 4: I mean it is also crazy that you think about
Speaker 4: like how this was one of the biggest movies of
Speaker 4: nineteen ninety nine and of the nineties, and like you
Speaker 4: look at the original posters, it was just the back
Speaker 4: of this artwork, and then the other poster was Alee
Speaker 4: Joel Osmond and Bruce Willis's face face. Yeah, so.
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, why is there no color? Yeah, that's that's
Speaker 2: a big thing, especially in a film that literally is
Speaker 2: about color, Like that's half of the joy here, and
Speaker 2: there's no.
Speaker 3: Some red in there. Goodness.
Speaker 2: Yeah, all right, enough of the bad art. Let's go
Speaker 2: to this one. Uh. Gravitas Ventures is releasing the Blu
Speaker 2: Ray BDR release of Between the Beats from this year
Speaker 2: on October fifteenth. This is talking about San Francisco being
Speaker 2: the epicenter of the American rave scene, and I believe,
Speaker 2: use me, it is a documentary.
Speaker 3: Ooh, I have not heard of this, and rave culture
Speaker 3: in the nineties is entirely my shit. So I am
Speaker 3: checking this out.
Speaker 2: Next one, Little Boxes is I believe, the third release
Speaker 2: from Tribeca from their physical media side. This is also
Speaker 2: a BDR coming on October twenty ninth, and I've heard
Speaker 2: that this is supposed to be great. This is from
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, so them reaching back eight years. That's pretty
Speaker 2: damn cool that they're putting some festival stuff out like this.
Speaker 3: Melanie Lindsay's in it.
Speaker 2: I'll watch it, I would agree. H Have you seen
Speaker 2: this one, Charlie? Just feels like one you might have cut.
Speaker 4: I haven't, but yes, as Kevin said, I will pretty
Speaker 4: much watch anything that Melanie Lensky's And yeah.
Speaker 3: You did not work on several rivs in San Francisco
Speaker 3: in the nineties. Stop the count, all right, especially you Ryan.
Speaker 2: Come on, Oh that is hilarious. Oh my gosh. All right.
Speaker 2: Deadpool and Wolverine coming on four K and Blu ray
Speaker 2: and DVD and probably something else. This is coming on
Speaker 2: October twenty second, and of course, because it's Disney, they're
Speaker 2: releasing a Deadpool version of the Steel Book and a
Speaker 2: Wolverine version of the Steelbooks. You will buy both of them.
Speaker 2: This is going to have surprisingly large list of special features,
Speaker 2: but I have a feeling they're going to be very short,
Speaker 2: so it'll be classic Disney at the end of the day.
Speaker 2: But if you don't want one of those, they're also
Speaker 2: doing this special Walmart pop up edition. The catch here
Speaker 2: this will be Blu ray only, so if you really
Speaker 2: pop up slipcover and you want four K, you can't
Speaker 2: have both without buying.
Speaker 3: Both Harley Movie.
Speaker 2: If for some reason those aren't sticking at you enough,
Speaker 2: there is a standard four K and Blu ray release
Speaker 2: and DVD release coming.
Speaker 3: Do they have a one click option for this?
Speaker 2: I mean they will eventually. Nova Media definitely will.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's true. I don't understand the one click thing.
Speaker 3: And then I saw Nova Media releases of Titon and
Speaker 3: I was just like, kind of need all those actually
Speaker 3: I have?
Speaker 2: I think I have one single one click left. I
Speaker 2: had like three and I sold two. I've got the
Speaker 2: Grindhouse one click. So yeah, three versions of two different
Speaker 2: movies for what reason? Not sure. Still no pre order
Speaker 2: in Australia's key rate. Still no pre order here either.
Speaker 2: To be honest, this has not been up for pre
Speaker 2: order anywhere yet.
Speaker 4: It's still like dominating the box office in the US.
Speaker 4: It happening.
Speaker 2: I don't think it's dominated in a good three year weeks.
Speaker 2: I think Beetlejuice Beetlejuice finally took it. Yeah, but uh yeah, anyways,
Speaker 2: that's enough on Marvel. Let's go to this one that
Speaker 2: made me insanely happy. Today, December ninth, Eureka is releasing
Speaker 2: The Secret of Nim from nineteen eighty two. This is
Speaker 2: the Don Bluth animation masterpiece. Now, before I gush about
Speaker 2: how much I love Don Bluth, this is worrisome to
Speaker 2: me because this says it's a ten adp HD presentation
Speaker 2: on Blu ray from a studio supplied master and the
Speaker 2: old Blu ray was hot fucking garbage. I hope that
Speaker 2: this looks at least a little better. Maybe they did
Speaker 2: something since then, because it's been a very long time,
Speaker 2: but this movie is incredible and I wish it had
Speaker 2: a decent release. I would love a four K release
Speaker 2: of this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I have not seen this, and I want to
Speaker 4: say fifteen or twenty years, but it's it's stuck with
Speaker 4: me and I did it was. It's one of those
Speaker 4: movies that as a kid I loved and was in rotation.
Speaker 4: But there was a certain point where you get to
Speaker 4: in this movie where it just becomes horrifying, and it was,
Speaker 4: and it is the lab flashback as a kid like
Speaker 4: I still there are certain moments in the first forty
Speaker 4: minutes of this movie that are a little blurry to me.
Speaker 4: But when you find out what's been going on, that
Speaker 4: shit as a kid just fucked me up bad.
Speaker 2: Pretty much every dumb blue film will do that at
Speaker 2: some point for you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, who put out the Blu ray previously? Was it
Speaker 3: just an MGM, just a studio?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I would love to all the special features carried over
Speaker 3: from them? Or are these all.
Speaker 2: I think there is? Yeah, there's a couple, like there's
Speaker 2: an archival featurette on Secrets behind the Screen. But that's
Speaker 2: the big joy here is there's all kinds of new
Speaker 2: stuff Sam Summers, who's an animation scholar and the author
Speaker 2: of DreamWorks Animation, Intertextuality and Aesthetics and Shrek and Beyond.
Speaker 2: There is a new audio commentary coming there archiveal audio
Speaker 2: commentary with Don Bluth and the producer Gary Goldman. New
Speaker 2: on camera interview with Don Bluth which is amazing. New
Speaker 2: on camera appreciation of the Secret and Nim with the
Speaker 2: animation expert and fan Stacy Abbott. New visual essay by
Speaker 2: children's media expert Catherine Lester on motherhood and the Secret
Speaker 2: of Nim, which that's like the whole backbone of the story. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Collector's booklet featuring new writing on Don Bluth and The
Speaker 2: Secret and Nim by Peter C. Coon's, author of Staging
Speaker 2: and a Comeback Broadway, Hollywood and the Disney Renaissance. I
Speaker 2: mean the fact that this is twenty one to ninety
Speaker 2: nine on the Eureka website and they don't charge shipping.
Speaker 2: Why need this?
Speaker 3: Yeah, they don't charge shipping on the Eureka website.
Speaker 2: Eureka website is free worldwide shipping except for like they
Speaker 2: started charge shipping in Japan. I think that free shipping
Speaker 2: to the US. And I know you love them.
Speaker 3: Yeah. The rabbit hole of Hong Kong movies that I've
Speaker 3: been going down and hearing that. God damn it?
Speaker 4: Did you grow up this one?
Speaker 2: Kevin?
Speaker 3: I probably I can't remember it. My Don Bluth movie,
Speaker 3: of course was Titan A. No, I'm kidding, well, it
Speaker 3: does that?
Speaker 4: The most new metal soundtrack out of all the Don
Speaker 4: Blue course?
Speaker 2: Of course? What is it?
Speaker 3: Didn't the trailer have like hire my creed?
Speaker 4: Of course?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Come on?
Speaker 3: I think was fIF Goes West? Was that a Don
Speaker 3: Blue joint that was?
Speaker 2: Okay, Goes West was not an American The first one
Speaker 2: was Don Bluth.
Speaker 3: Okay American? Telle I have more memories with that. It's
Speaker 3: still kind of fuzzy, but I remember watching that over this.
Speaker 4: Mean me being the little gay boy that I am.
Speaker 4: I was obsessed with Anaesthesia, which I'm favorite.
Speaker 2: I love it.
Speaker 4: I loved Anastasia. I know there. I have been afraid
Speaker 4: to revisit it based on the way that I'm sure
Speaker 4: the history is a little fucked up. But my god,
Speaker 4: like the sequences in that movie just blew my mind
Speaker 4: as a child.
Speaker 3: Like five or six.
Speaker 2: Sorry, he's no, actually, altogether he's got like seven or eight.
Speaker 2: It's it's more than you think, but it's not that many.
Speaker 2: I did a Director's Club episode on their podcast last
Speaker 2: year on him, and it was one of the most
Speaker 2: enjoyable revisits of everything I've ever had. Adore most of them.
Speaker 2: He's got like two and a half terrible movies and
Speaker 2: then titan A has just the most bland voice acting ever.
Speaker 2: But other than that, Matt Damon is asleep making he's
Speaker 2: like quick Guard the Door or something like.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think one of the terrible movies that you
Speaker 4: are considering is the first one that I grew up with,
Speaker 4: which I'm sure isn't good, but I had on VHS
Speaker 4: and in rotation as a kid is one of those,
Speaker 4: the Pebble and the Penguin.
Speaker 2: I would put that around the terrible line. Yes, it
Speaker 2: would at least be close to it. I think the
Speaker 2: worst by far. There was the Troll in Central Park.
Speaker 4: That I know is supposed to be yeah, notoriously bad. Yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean, wasn't there like a big troubled production with
Speaker 4: that one?
Speaker 2: And I think he was supposed to be doing something
Speaker 2: more with the whole ambleimation at the time, and then
Speaker 2: something happened and he went to spit out Troll in
Speaker 2: Central Park quickly. Tumbelino was actually pretty bad on Rewatch too.
Speaker 4: Oh that's a movie I saw as a kid that
Speaker 4: I don't have any memory of at all. Also, Hi Tyler, Oh.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm sorry I was, but also looking up Eureka
Speaker 3: and uh.
Speaker 2: God, damn it, I'm sorry, it's gonna happen.
Speaker 4: Oh man, We're back. We're back. Was huge for me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I remember, is a big one.
Speaker 4: I also had the Super Nintendo game, yes, kind of
Speaker 4: like I loved it as a kid, but I remember
Speaker 4: being like, cool, you get to be the the t
Speaker 4: Rex placed by John Goodman. Why can I barely move like.
Speaker 3: And quick playing five minutes.
Speaker 4: The oh I can't wait to be a t Rex.
Speaker 4: I have to stomp on window washers.
Speaker 2: Fun oh man. All right, that is Don Bluth and
Speaker 2: I don't remember if I said, but I love that
Speaker 2: Eureka is giving him the respect. And this is going
Speaker 2: to be in the Masters of Cinema collection. That's a
Speaker 2: bit deal.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Next one though, Horrible History for historical epics by Chang Cha.
Speaker 2: This is coming in both the UK and North America
Speaker 2: December ninth in the UK, December tenth in North America.
Speaker 2: And the films that we're getting here Marco Polo, The
Speaker 2: Pirate Boxer, Rebellion and four writers. Again, I have not
Speaker 2: seen any of these, but I've heard that they are fantastic.
Speaker 2: And this is a really great box set. This is
Speaker 2: a Shaw Brothers studio box so anybody who's super into
Speaker 2: Shaw Brothers, yet another thing for you to take a
Speaker 2: look at. This was all Masters supplied by Celestial Pictures.
Speaker 2: We've got two new commentaries by Frank Jing in this
Speaker 2: and Michael Worth. Two new commentaries with Mike Leader and
Speaker 2: Arna Vendema. I almost aid arn A Cinema to a
Speaker 2: new interview with Hong Kong cinema scholar Wayne Wong on
Speaker 2: Boxer Rebellion, new visual essay on Chang Chase, historical films
Speaker 2: by Jonathan Clements, and then of course a booklet in
Speaker 2: this one.
Speaker 3: I will basically probably buy any least that has commentaries
Speaker 3: from Frank Chang or Mike Leader and all of them
Speaker 3: because so informative, especially Frank Chang. I went through all
Speaker 3: the commentaries. I ripped them and listened to them while
Speaker 3: I was at work of in the line of duty,
Speaker 3: and it just it was so much fun.
Speaker 2: So he is great on those. Yeah, yeah, this looks good.
Speaker 2: I'm eager for this one. Yeah, kind Rayleiota from earlier
Speaker 2: nineteen ninety two, which was released just this year from
Speaker 2: Lionsgate getting a Blue Raine DVD of November fifth. This
Speaker 2: also stars Tyresee and Scott Eastwood.
Speaker 3: Uh huh, put out by Death Row Films, their first film.
Speaker 4: Do you think Scott Eastwood is the substance version of
Speaker 4: his dad and that's why he's been able to live
Speaker 4: so long? I say, this is someone who loves Clinton
Speaker 4: like dad.
Speaker 3: I just need one more day. We're shooting the cover
Speaker 3: of Vogue.
Speaker 2: All right. Next one is christ film like I feel
Speaker 2: like nobody went and saw Harold in the Purple crayon
Speaker 2: from just like fourteen days ago in the theaters, getting
Speaker 2: a Blu Ray DVD release on October eighth. There are
Speaker 2: some special features on this, just a few shorties. It
Speaker 2: looks like, hey, anybody see this one?
Speaker 4: No?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: I was waiting for yes, and I'm a staunch defender.
Speaker 4: I mean, I loved the book, but Zachary Levi, I
Speaker 4: don't want to any in my eyes?
Speaker 2: Can we please?
Speaker 3: Can we please go back? I need to read the.
Speaker 2: Quote, Oh absolutely, yes, you got.
Speaker 3: You know, usually movies there's like fantastic zactly leave knocks
Speaker 3: it out of the park, a world of pure imagination
Speaker 3: that's barely even anything positive. This movie, it's got imagination,
Speaker 3: isn't it?
Speaker 2: It's pure?
Speaker 3: Is it great? Didn't say that?
Speaker 2: Yeah? This is this is not Choice California from nineteen
Speaker 2: forty seven, getting a Blu Ray release from Keno on
Speaker 2: November nineteenth. Yet another Barbara Stanwick film. We've also got
Speaker 2: Anthony Quinn in this ray miland this should be pretty decent.
Speaker 4: Yeah, adding that to my list. I love Barbara Stanwick.
Speaker 2: Moving right along via Vision is putting out a couple
Speaker 2: of four K releases on December fourth out of Australia.
Speaker 2: First one is To Kill a Mockingbird. This will be
Speaker 2: an HDR ten presentation of the film on four K,
Speaker 2: and it looks like from what I can tell, most
Speaker 2: of this is all archival features. There's a couple of
Speaker 2: these are not labeled as new, but I don't remember
Speaker 2: them being all. The other one they may, but their
Speaker 2: other release is Field of Dreams, coming on four K
Speaker 2: as well. This is coming in a numbered three D
Speaker 2: lenticular hard case. Again HDR ten presentation of the film
Speaker 2: on four K Blu ray will also be included, and
Speaker 2: I don't think there's anything new on this one either.
Speaker 3: Is Via Vision the company that put out the substitute collection. Yes,
Speaker 3: did they just do lenticular covers for images that don't
Speaker 3: need lenticular covers?
Speaker 2: Sort of? Yes, for a lot of their special edition
Speaker 2: it's their way to get people to buy them. And
Speaker 2: keep in mind too, Via Vision is the company that
Speaker 2: owns imprint.
Speaker 3: Yes.
Speaker 4: Yes, they're also.
Speaker 2: The one that they're doing the big release of The Prisoner.
Speaker 3: So man, they were like man, the same way that
Speaker 3: Criterion be like, Okay, we'll put out Breakfast Club so
Speaker 3: that we can put out little titles. It's just like,
Speaker 3: we'll give you Phil to Dream so that we can
Speaker 3: give you seven hundred discs of Prisoner. This is our
Speaker 3: passion project.
Speaker 2: What's funny is that's not even their first reu of Prisoner.
Speaker 2: They've already done a bigger DVD release of that in
Speaker 2: the past, like twelve years ago. I've found it, had
Speaker 2: it had like four more discs.
Speaker 3: Oh my goodness. There's got to be somebody that's like
Speaker 3: a shareholder. There's just like, all right, guys, we'll give
Speaker 3: you money. But at the end of twenty twenty four,
Speaker 3: you know what I need. There's like, god damn it,
Speaker 3: one hundred and seventy five clenticular covers. I would buy
Speaker 3: that box set. That's right, just one hundred and seventy
Speaker 3: five c lenticular covers of a door moving.
Speaker 2: Uh keno Lober also announced today that their Fall sale
Speaker 2: has started and there are over seven hundred and fifty
Speaker 2: titles in the sale, free shipping at fifty dollars or above,
Speaker 2: and yeah, ends on October twenty first, you got a
Speaker 2: long time to make a decision, almost a full month
Speaker 2: as usual, I know for a lot of people. This
Speaker 2: is feels a little early, but keep in mind there's
Speaker 2: a lot of sales coming up, so it's probably a
Speaker 2: good idea. If you want Keino to jump on this
Speaker 2: right now, heads up that screen Factory s October sales
Speaker 2: starts next week. We've got Criterion twenty four hour flash
Speaker 2: sale happening probably the second week of October. We've got
Speaker 2: a Target by two Get one free sale happening the
Speaker 2: second week of October. It is that time of the year.
Speaker 2: Monto Micabro sale happens in October. November, of course, is
Speaker 2: everybody's Black Friday sale. And uh here we are.
Speaker 4: I might have to get the train this during this
Speaker 4: Kena Larber sale because that's they released the four K
Speaker 4: of that, right I just I just watched that for
Speaker 4: the first time this year. Holy shit, what a movie.
Speaker 3: I've already made my cart for Qino. I'm gonna get
Speaker 3: a Wife of a Spy. We get the Patricia Rosmo
Speaker 3: movies that they put out that I don't have yet,
Speaker 3: Slam poison Less Caution c before and Bad Lieutenant on
Speaker 3: four k's.
Speaker 4: I need to get Bad Lieutenant on four K two
Speaker 4: and I have less caution Less caution, definitely worth it.
Speaker 4: Blindly bought that one. Yeah, Highway, incredible performance and you know, Angley,
Speaker 4: I mean kind of kind of wild that that's the
Speaker 4: film he made right after broke Back, but also it
Speaker 4: makes sense but also is like such a big swing
Speaker 4: at the same time.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, after brokeback he was just like, give him
Speaker 3: a blank check. I'll give you NC seventeen movie that'll
Speaker 3: go to three theaters. There's like, whatever you want, sir.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And as Simner is saying thirty new ineger Centro Mosian
Speaker 3: titles next month, I still haven't come.
Speaker 2: And by next month he means next week literally October. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 2: my my big recommendation for things that don't ever get
Speaker 2: mentioned enough. This is the first time I think in
Speaker 2: a year or two that all of the Forbidden Fruit titles,
Speaker 2: the ones that are in conjunction with something weird, every
Speaker 2: single one is on sale except for the newest one
Speaker 2: that literally just came out that makes sense. But there
Speaker 2: are seventeen out the first sixteen or nine ninety nine
Speaker 2: or less, I don't remember if the earliest ones are
Speaker 2: a little bit less, but they're all nine ninety nine
Speaker 2: is the most you'll pay for any of them, and
Speaker 2: those are fricking great, Like they are such a crazy,
Speaker 2: weird snapshot in time. I don't think anybody really needs
Speaker 2: all of them, probably, but if you want them all,
Speaker 2: I'm sure you'll love at least something on all of them.
Speaker 2: If something is enticing to you in any way, go
Speaker 2: look at one or two of them and just say this, really,
Speaker 2: you know, like one of them that's got the original
Speaker 2: Reefer madness on it, Go check that out just as
Speaker 2: a weird drug scare flick. It's a really interesting piece
Speaker 2: of history. There are some others that will probably pique
Speaker 2: your interest. It's a good time to check out those. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I also saw that they had the Outer Limit Season
Speaker 3: one and two on sale, and I was just like,
Speaker 3: count stop, I need that too.
Speaker 2: I went into it thinking I'm just gonna browse. I
Speaker 2: definitely don't need anything. But as I'm looking, if there's
Speaker 2: something i'm considering, put in the cart and just look
Speaker 2: at the end. And I just accidentally had two hundred
Speaker 2: and ten dollars in the cart and I'm like, hey,
Speaker 2: can I do this?
Speaker 4: I right now in my cart I have oh god,
Speaker 4: it's the Opera Collector's Edition from Severn along with the
Speaker 4: Out of the Blue four K and.
Speaker 3: I'm oh, yeah, you've been one that you got.
Speaker 4: To I've yeah that in opera where I'm like, uh,
Speaker 4: you know, obviously one October's coming up. Haven't seen that
Speaker 4: Argento film in a decade, and then out of the
Speaker 4: Blue I've been wanting for a very long time, even
Speaker 4: though I probably it's going to take a lot for
Speaker 4: me to watch that movie.
Speaker 3: Yeah, get that in the mil and throw it on many.
Speaker 2: At least is amazing, uh, Ronnie. Ronnie is saying the
Speaker 2: Jewish Soul the ten Classics of You Cinema was on sale,
Speaker 2: highly recommended. John is pointing out the rare road titles
Speaker 2: are on sal check those out. Brian shouting out the
Speaker 2: Girl on the Bridge. He says, love that movie so much,
Speaker 2: can't recommend it enough. Lots of stuff listed for sure,
Speaker 2: a couple more to talk about.
Speaker 4: Oh sorry, sorry, no, I was just I'm trying to
Speaker 4: remember it Girl on the Bridge because I oh, Patrisa
Speaker 4: Kante that's yep, okay, yep.
Speaker 2: They just released that fairly recently. Yeah on the Road
Speaker 2: with Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. They're putting out a
Speaker 2: box set collection of all. I believe it's one of
Speaker 2: the seven films. This is coming on November twenty sixth
Speaker 2: on Blu Ray from Keino. Now, these are nothing new,
Speaker 2: There's not been anything added to these. It's just bundling
Speaker 2: everything together. It'll be a little cheaper to buy this,
Speaker 2: I'm sure, and then next year in a sale this
Speaker 2: will probably be much much cheaper than that. Even the
Speaker 2: important thing potentially to point out is that Road de
Speaker 2: Rio and Road de Bali do not have any subtitles,
Speaker 2: so only five out of seven have subs and only
Speaker 2: a couple of commentaries, and yeah, only a couple of
Speaker 2: small featuretes outside of that. But this will probably be
Speaker 2: super cheap, Like I said, nice looking. Next up is
Speaker 2: Janice Contemporaries announced their next two releases from Criterion December
Speaker 2: tenth Blu Ray release of The Beast. They're also putting
Speaker 2: us out on DVD as well. This is the bertrand
Speaker 2: Benilo film. A lot of people saw this this year
Speaker 2: because it played. I think it opened a couple of
Speaker 2: festivals last year, but most people saw that this year.
Speaker 2: As usual. On this Janis Contemporaries a meet the filmmaker's
Speaker 2: featurette and a trailer and that is it.
Speaker 3: This movie deserves.
Speaker 4: Oh fuck off. So I think this is the best
Speaker 4: film of the year so far, and Kevin hates it
Speaker 4: with every fiber of his being.
Speaker 2: I want to say, yikes, I.
Speaker 4: Love this movie. It I left the theater pretty shaken
Speaker 4: up I got home. I will also say there's a
Speaker 4: home invasion sequence in this movie. Don't want to say
Speaker 4: anything more than that, but I was unable to like
Speaker 4: stop thinking about this movie all the way home, to
Speaker 4: the point that it like like it like just really
Speaker 4: rattled me up. And then I got home after this
Speaker 4: very tense, scary movie, and my back door was open
Speaker 4: because my roommate forgot to lock our back door after
Speaker 4: letting our dog out, and I it's been a long
Speaker 4: time since I've just stood in like after you know,
Speaker 4: shutting the front door and just been like completely paralyzed
Speaker 4: by fear just because of that. And my roommate was like, what, like,
Speaker 4: you know, like, oh sorry, I've forgotten. I was like,
Speaker 4: it's just because this fucking movie me up. But watching
Speaker 4: it a second time only solidified just how it's brilliant.
Speaker 4: I think this movie and deeply scary because I think,
Speaker 4: especially with the way AI has felt early prescient in
Speaker 4: the ways it's looming over everything right now. This movie
Speaker 4: felt like a warning in the best possible way. But
Speaker 4: I don't think but Kevin didn't like it.
Speaker 2: That's did you watch this for the second time, Kevin Christ?
Speaker 3: Now I would rather watch freaking every bad movie we've
Speaker 3: ever covered, or rather watched that clockwork orange style than
Speaker 3: rewatching those.
Speaker 2: Jesus Christ, Well, maybe you're more into the second announcement,
Speaker 2: which is evil does not exist. This is the next
Speaker 2: or I used to Kahamagucci film coming on December seventeenth
Speaker 2: on Blue Rain DVD and once again meet the filmmaker
Speaker 2: new interview with the director, which we already know him
Speaker 2: because you released his other film in the collection already.
Speaker 2: It's kind of weird that this is coming to Janis
Speaker 2: Contemporaries and not just the collection, considering the accolades this
Speaker 2: has gotten.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love this movie too. I'm actually eager to
Speaker 4: see this one again because, like The Beast, it has
Speaker 4: a stunner of an ending. The Beast it was like
Speaker 4: one of those things where I'm and I promise I'm
Speaker 4: not spoiling anything, but The Beast was, Oh did what
Speaker 4: just happened? Is what I think just happened? Did that
Speaker 4: just happen? And then I realized, yes, that in fact
Speaker 4: did happen, And that's a chilling final note to go out.
Speaker 4: This one also is a chilling final note to go
Speaker 4: out on and I didn't fully understand it, but I
Speaker 4: think that's also part of the point, and it's lingered
Speaker 4: with me for the past several months. And also just
Speaker 4: has one sequence that takes place in a town hall
Speaker 4: that I think lasts like ten minutes and is just
Speaker 4: a bunch of people just debating the ethics of certain
Speaker 4: environmental an environmental development that they are proposing on their town.
Speaker 4: That is like one of the most riveting things I've
Speaker 4: seen in a movie all year. And it's a much
Speaker 4: different type of movie than Drive My Car, which I
Speaker 4: also loved, and even A Real Fortune and Fantasy, which
Speaker 4: I also loved as well. But yeah, I think this
Speaker 4: is one of the top five films of the year
Speaker 4: as well. So wow, yeah, did you see this one yet.
Speaker 3: Kevin, Oh, I happen to you know? It's in my
Speaker 3: top five this year? Taro fun movie, don't care no,
Speaker 3: But I watched My Car and was not that big
Speaker 3: of a fan of it, but I haven't watched any
Speaker 3: of his other stuff, so I'm not sure what I
Speaker 3: should watch. That's the second movie from.
Speaker 4: Him, my favorite. It's I mean, it's all of his
Speaker 4: movies are a little different. I mean they are very
Speaker 4: much Hamagucci films, but like you can tell that, you know,
Speaker 4: his fingerprints are all over him in one way or another.
Speaker 4: But Osaka one and two was the first one I saw,
Speaker 4: and I went into that completely blind and saw that
Speaker 4: at like a three point thirty showing on a Friday
Speaker 4: afternoon and was just like, Okay, I'll just go to
Speaker 4: this movie by myself. And then, like I think an
Speaker 4: hour and a half into that movie, I just broke
Speaker 4: down sobbing and was like, thank god, I'm seeing this
Speaker 4: movie by myself because this movie is hurting me in
Speaker 4: the best possible way. But I can't be around people
Speaker 4: right now, and thank god this theater is empty too,
Speaker 4: at least for a Matt nashew Is. I feel like
Speaker 4: I'm turning into a puddle.
Speaker 2: But yeah, that uh, I think that got a release
Speaker 2: from Grasshopper, right.
Speaker 4: Yes, I do own the Grasshopper release. It's it's a
Speaker 4: fantastic release.
Speaker 3: Maybe I'll watched this since it's it's a stealth thriller,
Speaker 3: which makes me feel like it's not really a thriller.
Speaker 4: It's more of a drama. There's there's an The third
Speaker 4: act takes a turn that I don't want to say
Speaker 4: you can't see it coming, but like you, it's not.
Speaker 4: It's it's ambiguous as to why characters behave in certain ways.
Speaker 4: That isn't that will leave you pondering it is. I
Speaker 4: will say I saw it at an IFF Boston screening
Speaker 4: and you could tell everybody was locked into Evil does
Speaker 4: not Exist for the first hour, and you could tell
Speaker 4: as the credits rolled, you could basically hear people being like, wait,
Speaker 4: what huh like but in a way that I loved,
Speaker 4: but you could tell other people were like, ahh, I
Speaker 4: don't know what to make of those last ten minutes,
Speaker 4: but I think I liked it up until then. But
Speaker 4: I found it very provocative, and you know, thought provoking.
Speaker 2: So well, we got one more announcements that was not ambiguous,
Speaker 2: and most people hated that Alien Romulus getting a four
Speaker 2: K steel book and a standard four K and Blu
Speaker 2: ray release. This is coming out December third from twenty
Speaker 2: Century Studios, and I gotta admit I absolutely hate the
Speaker 2: art on the steel book.
Speaker 3: That if it's not AI, it looks like AI. So yeah,
Speaker 3: well accomplished.
Speaker 4: I don't like the artwork, and I didn't like the
Speaker 4: movie either, So but I feel slightly more confident in
Speaker 4: saying that without getting too much hate from the chat
Speaker 4: about this one. I don't know.
Speaker 3: I'm right there with you, Charlie. But also just on
Speaker 3: the art tip, it's like every poster they released for
Speaker 3: this movie is like ten out of ten, and those
Speaker 3: one of those. You know, Yeah, it does look like
Speaker 3: a video game cover.
Speaker 2: That's true, it looks like a video game cover. But
Speaker 2: also the first time I saw it, I went, is
Speaker 2: this for Stranger Things?
Speaker 4: It does have the exact same color palette as Stranger Things,
Speaker 4: doesn't it? On on the extras, We've got a lot
Speaker 4: in here, but again it's not.
Speaker 2: Uh, it's not listening special features. Yeah, it's basically like,
Speaker 2: look at the Easter eggs that you missed, meet the stars,
Speaker 2: explore the practical sets.
Speaker 3: Come on, alternate extended scenes, check out scenes that didn't
Speaker 3: make the final cut. Yeah, I know what that means.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Uh. And then like I showed, this is the
Speaker 2: four K slip and then they inverted the colors. This
Speaker 2: is the Blu Ray slip.
Speaker 4: I honestly don't think the poster. I mean that is
Speaker 4: the original poster. That's not backlass.
Speaker 3: Yeah it kicks ass.
Speaker 2: I wish that would have been the steel.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4: Why do they make big decisions like like because it's
Speaker 4: it's like, you have this right here, like.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Ryan asks does Bridon hate physical media? What's up?
Speaker 3: He is still watching DVDs from two thousand and five.
Speaker 3: He has about good nine hundred DVDs from back in
Speaker 3: the day. If there's ever a two pac with movies
Speaker 3: you forgot about, he is ripping off the packaging of that,
Speaker 3: and he is getting hyped as shit.
Speaker 2: So yeah, so that's Alien Romulus and yeah, this is
Speaker 2: not Brighton. One of these days, we got to get
Speaker 2: him on here.
Speaker 4: We do have to get him on here.
Speaker 2: As usual. After that, we always talk about what is
Speaker 2: coming out next week in case you forgot, and it's
Speaker 2: a decent week. We've got the Blob four K Steel
Speaker 2: book coming from Screen Factory, West Wing Complete Series coming
Speaker 2: out on Blue Paramount Scares Volume two four K as above,
Speaker 2: so below from Screen Factory, Body and Soul from Keno,
Speaker 2: Burn Witch Burn, that imaginary four K steel book, the
Speaker 2: Momento moriy This was delayed, so don't be looking for
Speaker 2: that next week.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 2: First Love from Keno as well, The Billy Bevins Silent
Speaker 2: Comedian is coming out soon and that's it. Wow what
Speaker 2: I What I did there is tricked a little bit
Speaker 2: to warn everybody it's about to get insane. I wanted
Speaker 2: to take a moment to say, look at the release
Speaker 2: dates that are coming up. October, November and early December
Speaker 2: are filled with literally like a few hundred massive releases.
Speaker 2: Not even kidding. It is going to be a huge
Speaker 2: period for people that buy a lot. It's going to
Speaker 2: be a very difficult period for people that don't buy
Speaker 2: too much. Obviously, keep in mind how you're you're buying,
Speaker 2: how you're you know, not putting yourself in debt. Don't
Speaker 2: do anything to keep up with other people. It's not
Speaker 2: anything crazy. A lot of this stuff will be around
Speaker 2: for a long time. Stuff like Paramount Scares. It feels
Speaker 2: like it's semi cheap, but it's also got a movie
Speaker 2: less than last year's version, and that one is still
Speaker 2: in stock and it has gone on sale many, many
Speaker 2: times don't fall for fomo, no reason to. We're all
Speaker 2: here for each other. You'll be able to watch these
Speaker 2: for years, I promise.
Speaker 3: I mean, just the Scream and Shout Factory stuff that
Speaker 3: leaked for December and they came out, it was just like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 3: there's more in December. Don't worry. I'm just like, right, huh,
Speaker 3: because that Golden Harvest Volume two, if it's anything like
Speaker 3: volume one, which is probably that in the second sight Blair,
Speaker 3: which are my most anticipator for the rest of the year,
Speaker 3: If it's anything like that, I mean, yeah, that's mine.
Speaker 2: I know. In the second version there are some crossover
Speaker 2: from some previous Eureka releases, which some people aren't gonna love.
Speaker 2: But they've never had Blu Ray releases in the stage,
Speaker 2: so that's still a good thing, right. Yeah. I didn't
Speaker 2: ask anything next week you guys are into or looking
Speaker 2: to pick up soon?
Speaker 3: I mean, I like as as above, so below, but
Speaker 3: I got the six dollars Blu Ray and that'll be fine.
Speaker 2: Same. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that movie, though I need to catch
Speaker 4: up with that one I missed. It's that that movie's
Speaker 4: ten years old this year.
Speaker 3: Right, yes, at least yeah, maybe even more.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I kind of yeah, burst my bubble already, but
Speaker 4: I'm I got Opera in the in my in my
Speaker 4: checkout page, and I've yet to pull the trigger, but
Speaker 4: it will probably happen along without the Blue.
Speaker 2: So amazing to two incredible releases. Yeah, all right, So
Speaker 2: the discussion tonight is Horror from two thousand to two
Speaker 2: thousand and nine. Why why do we pick this?
Speaker 3: Kevin Well, like I said, I was like, that would
Speaker 3: be more difficult because I always think that Horrors two
Speaker 3: thousand is like pretty bad. But then, like I said,
Speaker 3: I've made my top ten in like five minutes and
Speaker 3: then have like twenty honorable mentions, So I don't know
Speaker 3: what I'm talking about. Honestly, if it was nineties who
Speaker 3: it'd probably be harder because yeah, that that everything, like
Speaker 3: pre Scream is just like the runoff of like Freddy
Speaker 3: and Jason sequels kind of, And then after Scream it's
Speaker 3: just like, oh, so you so you really want movies
Speaker 3: with teens getting killed? It's like no, no, no, we
Speaker 3: liked Scream because it's making fun of them, and like,
Speaker 3: so you want Urban Legend It's like yes and no no. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So two thousands a lot of a lot of good
Speaker 3: trends happening, got the torture porn, but on the reverse
Speaker 3: he got in France, you got new French extremity doing stuff.
Speaker 3: You got a really good independent wave of poor movies
Speaker 3: coming on. Found footage is starting to get its getting
Speaker 3: its foothold in. It might take a little bit more years,
Speaker 3: kind of by the end of the year, but a
Speaker 3: lot more andy found footage at the time.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 3: There was just a lot of cool stuff happening, actually.
Speaker 2: Not not revealing titles after you made your list, Charlie,
Speaker 2: was there anything that you felt like you discovered a
Speaker 2: through line through what you were picking.
Speaker 4: That's a very good question. I think some of these
Speaker 4: picks I tried to so I did try and just
Speaker 4: go with my gut and go with my heart, because
Speaker 4: horror is a genre that I felt very connected to,
Speaker 4: and I think the two thousands were actually when I
Speaker 4: really started getting into it because I was a real
Speaker 4: fraidy cat growing up, and then this was when I
Speaker 4: started seeking out horror films when during their times of release,
Speaker 4: I would say, I don't know if there's a big
Speaker 4: through line. I think there's some that are basic picks
Speaker 4: that I kind of looked at it the end and
Speaker 4: I went, but you'd be lying if you didn't include
Speaker 4: some of these, and you know that's just.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 4: I I will say hmmm, because I don't want to
Speaker 4: spoil anything. I will just say this my number one.
Speaker 4: I can see people being like, that's not horror, but
Speaker 4: I dare you to tell me that there aren't some
Speaker 4: of the scariest sequences of any movie from this decade
Speaker 4: in that movie, and I even I'm not even I'm
Speaker 4: not gonna lie. I texted a few people, and I
Speaker 4: didn't text Kevin because I didn't want to spoil this,
Speaker 4: spoil what my list is, but I texted, would you
Speaker 4: consider this horror? And I got a few eh but
Speaker 4: mostly yes. Is So my number one might be controversial
Speaker 4: in that it might not be fully a genre pick,
Speaker 4: but it's it when it comes to it, It's one
Speaker 4: of my favorite movies, so I just had to include it.
Speaker 2: Did either of you impose any rules on yourself, like
Speaker 2: only including one from a franchise as or a director
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 4: Yes, I did. I didn't do any overlap with filmmakers.
Speaker 4: I tried to make it diverse, although I don't know
Speaker 4: how much I succeeded. I think I overlapped with one
Speaker 4: subgenre of horror, which I will.
Speaker 2: Get into when I yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think. I also think there's definitely one of
Speaker 4: these movies that might not have been on my list
Speaker 4: had I not rewatched it about a month ago. But
Speaker 4: then when it comes down to it and my history
Speaker 4: with horror, it's just vital in how I got into
Speaker 4: the genre. But I also think it's also a film
Speaker 4: oddly enough that I can see some people being like,
Speaker 4: that's not horror, but it's considered a scary.
Speaker 2: Movie and he's so.
Speaker 4: And it has been mentioned already. I'll just bring that up.
Speaker 4: So I kind of go loosey goosey with with this
Speaker 4: sort of stuff. I mean, I've written for horror sites
Speaker 4: where you know, I've asked. I've been like, does it
Speaker 4: have to be pure genre? And they're like, you know,
Speaker 4: whatever you consider horror applies. I don't know if either
Speaker 4: of you had any I should throw that question right
Speaker 4: back at you, Ryan and Kevin. Did either of you
Speaker 4: have any rules or overlaps.
Speaker 3: Or I didn't want to do horror comedy just so
Speaker 3: I could kind of trim it out because if I
Speaker 3: did it, it'd be like Seanna the Dead number one,
Speaker 3: It's like, oh, okay, whatever. I do have one on
Speaker 3: here that is comedy horror, but I would say it's
Speaker 3: like more horror than comedy, and then one on here
Speaker 3: that's kind of more of a drama but also more
Speaker 3: of a sci fi. I'm still considered nix in it
Speaker 3: for that reason. But there's definitely a through line there's
Speaker 3: it seems to be more later half of the decade.
Speaker 3: I have four movies from two thousand and eight here,
Speaker 3: one from seven, and one from six and only well,
Speaker 3: I guess four from the first five years, six from
Speaker 3: the last. But there's definitely a through line of a
Speaker 3: certain type of self genre and a certain type of extremness.
Speaker 3: I would say.
Speaker 2: I was definitely trying to stick to only one film
Speaker 2: per franchise. I definitely didn't want to go double up
Speaker 2: from one franchise. I I honestly was not thinking of directors.
Speaker 2: I think I may have doubled up on one now
Speaker 2: that I'm looking at it, and well, I guess that's
Speaker 2: kuint of my honorable mentions too. My big thing, though,
Speaker 2: is half my list is from one year.
Speaker 4: Wow.
Speaker 2: That surprised the hell out of me, and I've even
Speaker 2: got more from that year in my honorable mentions. Did
Speaker 2: not expect that. What's a but it's I must have
Speaker 2: really enjoyed that year. So let's get into it. Kevin,
Speaker 2: why don't you kick us off? What's your number? Ten?
Speaker 3: I thankfully have all of these on physical so I
Speaker 3: will be showing them off. Let's just set the tone.
Speaker 3: Just know that I'm not fucking around number ten. August
Speaker 3: Underground's Mortem.
Speaker 5: No shit, that's right.
Speaker 4: Didn't you buy that when you came to visit me?
Speaker 3: That's right. Try to say this as quickly as possible.
Speaker 3: Watch this in high school. Watch the entire trilogy in
Speaker 3: high school disturbed me so much I didn't want to
Speaker 3: watch horror movies for like months afterwards. When I was
Speaker 3: visiting Charlie back in March, saw this at the archive
Speaker 3: and kind of as a way to let's just say,
Speaker 3: I was in a previous relationship where if I watch
Speaker 3: something like this, they would, you know what, nevermind, kind
Speaker 3: of bought this to be like, you know what, fuck you,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna watch this, I'm not gonna feel judgment, et cetera.
Speaker 3: Put it on and going through the special features with
Speaker 3: Fred Vogel and all that. It's I mean, it has
Speaker 3: the power that I don't think any other movie can.
Speaker 3: And most directors would say, yeah, I don't need that,
Speaker 3: so good on you for doing it, but no, I
Speaker 3: don't need that power. Yeah, it's it's a one of one.
Speaker 3: Is it an incredible movie? No, it's pretty boring. But
Speaker 3: also it's kind of it's a document of serial killers
Speaker 3: and they're fucking boring. And this movie is also one
Speaker 3: of the positives of it. It is not glamorize them.
Speaker 3: It doesn't show that they're cool or what they're doing
Speaker 3: is awesome. Like even Fred Vogel has said, he's like, no,
Speaker 3: these are losers like that you should feel I'm not bored,
Speaker 3: but just like overwhelmed because it's just like you need no,
Speaker 3: I don't want to be in this world. So to
Speaker 3: have a movie just don't ask to role play with you, Kevin, okay,
Speaker 3: but just to like have a movie that it's just
Speaker 3: like not afraid to go there, even if like maybe
Speaker 3: when you're watching it's just like maybe you should have
Speaker 3: not gone there, Like it's as it's everything you think
Speaker 3: it is plus like fifty times more. So that's number ten.
Speaker 2: I should point out too, that we decided on doing
Speaker 2: ten favorites and not like the best ten, because many
Speaker 2: of my honorable mentions would have been on the list instead.
Speaker 2: But yeah, these are ones that probably had a big
Speaker 2: impact on us, or are ones that we look at
Speaker 2: as important to us for one reason or another, and
Speaker 2: that I can see being a decent pick. Yeah, I will,
Speaker 2: I will go in with my ten. Then we'll let
Speaker 2: Charlie go. My number ten is from two thousand and eight,
Speaker 2: the year Kevin mentioned. I think this is easily the
Speaker 2: most unique zombie movie to come out of the decade.
Speaker 2: Have to talk about Pontypool. This is an incredible Canadian
Speaker 2: zombie movie that is one of a kind, and it's
Speaker 2: done in a way that I guess the conceit has
Speaker 2: been spoiled so often. I won't feel too bad for
Speaker 2: saying it. But if you don't want to hear the
Speaker 2: spoil here, you mute for the next thirty seconds, or
Speaker 2: if you're listening later, skip forward thirty seconds. But the
Speaker 2: big spoiler here is that people working at a radio
Speaker 2: station find out that essentially the virus is being given
Speaker 2: out auditory through everybody, and eventually the station is overran
Speaker 2: with zombies at the very end of the movie. It's
Speaker 2: just a really well told story, and I think it's
Speaker 2: just based on the rarity and uniqueness of what we
Speaker 2: get out of this is one of the reasons I
Speaker 2: love it so much.
Speaker 4: I need to check that one out. It's one of
Speaker 4: my listen for so so long.
Speaker 2: Well, it's been sort of difficult to see. It's not
Speaker 2: super available on I don't think it's been on Blu
Speaker 2: Ray legally in the US. I could be wrong there,
Speaker 2: but the DVD has been like pretty damn hard to
Speaker 2: find for quite some time. Yeah, all right, go ahead.
Speaker 3: Oh, I was just gonna say, yeah, Ponnepool's Fun Time.
Speaker 3: It's the horror movie version of talk radio YEP or
Speaker 3: Private Parts, take your.
Speaker 2: Pick YEP Number ten, Charlie.
Speaker 4: So my Number ten is a movie I've only seen once,
Speaker 4: and it might not be my favorite, but it has
Speaker 4: had such it had such a huge impact on me,
Speaker 4: and it is one of the only movies that I
Speaker 4: think I can only sit through once because it had
Speaker 4: it just hit It hit close to home to me
Speaker 4: in ways that I'm not even entirely comfortable sharing. But
Speaker 4: there's a movie, there's a new French extremity film called
Speaker 4: In My Skin by Marina Devaugh that is about a
Speaker 4: woman played by Marina Devon. She directly wrote and starred
Speaker 4: in the movie. And she has a fiance, she has
Speaker 4: a successful job in which she just got a promotion,
Speaker 4: and then she scrapes her leg at a party just
Speaker 4: by accident, but then she can't stop picking at it,
Speaker 4: and then not only could she not stop picking at it,
Speaker 4: but then she starts self harming in other ways. And
Speaker 4: what I think is so disturbingly brilliant about this movie
Speaker 4: is it captures depression and a form of self destruction
Speaker 4: and self harm and mental illness in a way that
Speaker 4: is not clear, but that's kind of what mental illness
Speaker 4: and self harm is. And if you look at reviews
Speaker 4: of this thing from back in the day, a lot
Speaker 4: of people criticized it for that, but it taps into
Speaker 4: a sense of being uncomfortable and mentally unwell in a
Speaker 4: way that I found incredibly powerful and weirdly, as someone
Speaker 4: who has wrestled with my own lived experience with mental
Speaker 4: illness and whatnot, very validating. But I also found it
Speaker 4: it's so upsetting to the point that it actually made
Speaker 4: me physically ill, So I do not recommend this to
Speaker 4: anyone who if if self harm is a potential trigger
Speaker 4: for you, as it is for me, might want to
Speaker 4: sit this one out. I think it's a brilliant film,
Speaker 4: and a deeply, deeply upsetting one, and a very important
Speaker 4: one that I found very It's so difficult to stomach.
Speaker 4: I couldn't almost. I couldn't make my way. I barely almost.
Speaker 4: I barely made my way through it the first time,
Speaker 4: and I don't know if I'd ever be able to again.
Speaker 4: But I also think that's the testament of a good
Speaker 4: horror movie. At the same time, even though it's not
Speaker 4: even like horror in the sense that you're like deeply
Speaker 4: dreading like anything scary, so much as just like it's effective.
Speaker 4: It's a effective it's the horror.
Speaker 3: The effective.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's and it is disgusting but and gruesome
Speaker 4: but not. It's not just the effects, it's just the
Speaker 4: mindset that it puts you in.
Speaker 2: Is so.
Speaker 4: On point that I can't deny the impact it had
Speaker 4: on me. And I've only seen it once, about eight
Speaker 4: or nine years ago. It's hard to say that this
Speaker 4: is a favorite in certain ways, but when it comes
Speaker 4: to movies that have impacted me the most out of
Speaker 4: this genre during this time period. I can't deny the
Speaker 4: power of this movie wield. So yeah, not a not
Speaker 4: a fun pick, but but but one that is I think,
Speaker 4: you know, definitely worthy of this list.
Speaker 3: So yeah, yeah, no Blu ray release for that. The
Speaker 3: US DVD is long outer print. There is a torch
Speaker 3: in UK DVD that's fairly cheap. I need to need
Speaker 3: to grab that, even though you know, am I throwing
Speaker 3: that on anytime soon? Now?
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like it's one of the it's it's one of
Speaker 4: those movies, you know, those one and done movies that
Speaker 4: people mentioned. That is a one and done for me.
Speaker 4: But I think it's kind of a masterpiece in and
Speaker 4: of itself.
Speaker 2: So it also doesn't get talked about enough at all.
Speaker 3: No, No, it's just so hard to find awesome, all right,
Speaker 3: keV Okay, this one would be quick and easy. I
Speaker 3: don't have anything special to say about At number nine,
Speaker 3: The Strangers fantastic great movie.
Speaker 4: Yep, Kevin, did you go see that? Or Sex in
Speaker 4: the City the opening weekend?
Speaker 3: I was not based enough at the time to be
Speaker 3: watching Sex in the City. That would come later in life. Okay,
Speaker 3: first movie not good. Second movie, Crime against Humanity.
Speaker 4: Yeah, agree with you.
Speaker 2: My number nine is a franchise movie. This one was
Speaker 2: difficult to choose which one of the franchise to talk about,
Speaker 2: but I think this is the one that I've watched
Speaker 2: the most and probably had the biggest impact on literally
Speaker 2: an entire generation. Gotta discuss Final Destination two. The opening
Speaker 2: log scene is something that has seared into all of
Speaker 2: our memories that watched that's when we were young. It
Speaker 2: has some of the more effective kills out of the
Speaker 2: entire franchise. It's definitely a little shaky plot line wise,
Speaker 2: but it's certainly one of the most fun this whole
Speaker 2: franchise to watch. Obviously, the first one is classic, and
Speaker 2: it's one that's set up the fairly positive franchise that
Speaker 2: we got where most of them are fairly high quality
Speaker 2: except for one or maybe two. But yeah, this one
Speaker 2: I think is the one that has stuck with me
Speaker 2: the most. I think that it's one that has really
Speaker 2: been able to highlight really great practical effects that we
Speaker 2: have been missing dearly in recent years. I love the
Speaker 2: way they made this, and yeah love Final Destination to
Speaker 2: two thousand and three by the way, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: I would say the first one is a better movie,
Speaker 3: but the highs of the second one or like nothing
Speaker 3: comes close.
Speaker 4: Check off spaghetti that came out of a frying pan.
Speaker 4: That's one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
Speaker 3: When that kid got flattened by glass kicks like glass.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh man, I'm glad you guys are on board
Speaker 2: with that one, all right. Yeah number nine, Charlie.
Speaker 4: Number nine. It's been mentioned signs.
Speaker 2: Great Movie Center.
Speaker 4: That's a horror movie, yeah, Kevin's Yeah, man. I I
Speaker 4: would say this was a big one for me. I
Speaker 4: think I saw it. Yeah, I saw it on VHS
Speaker 4: or DVD the year after. But I remember this being
Speaker 4: my first m night shamal On movie and a movie
Speaker 4: that I remember being like, that's one I actually want
Speaker 4: to watch, and it being a wake up call to
Speaker 4: me that, like, you know, I was always afraid of,
Speaker 4: Like now I love gory body horror movies. I mean,
Speaker 4: we were praising the substance like an hour ago, but like,
Speaker 4: this is a movie that I remember teaching me a
Speaker 4: lesson as a kid, which is, oh, sometimes it's the
Speaker 4: stuff you don't see that really freaks you out. Just like,
Speaker 4: and I rewatched it. Honestly, I can't even really say
Speaker 4: why I rewatch it, Maybe just because I hadn't seen
Speaker 4: it in a long time, and I've seen this movie
Speaker 4: dozens of times as a kid, And even in my
Speaker 4: darkened apartment the other night when my roommate was not home,
Speaker 4: I got up to go to the bathroom and was
Speaker 4: just like genuinely like freaked out by like just just
Speaker 4: the way this movie deals with you know, shadows in
Speaker 4: the basement and during that one scene, I mean, the
Speaker 4: birthday party scene is iconic. The way it uses sounds,
Speaker 4: I mean, the scene where you just hear them walking
Speaker 4: around the house and then you know, the dog stops
Speaker 4: barking and you hear the clicking of their whatever noises
Speaker 4: they're making. I mean, like, and I also just find
Speaker 4: it maybe watching it post pandemic. My friend Greg Valante
Speaker 4: wrote about how he watched this Didn't lock Down and
Speaker 4: how he found it very you know, hopeful and optimistic,
Speaker 4: which of course it always I've always seen it as
Speaker 4: but as an adult, it actually hit me harder in
Speaker 4: certain ways than it did as a preteen. And yeah,
Speaker 4: I think it's just, uh, I think, you know, a
Speaker 4: lot of people you know, beat on this movie for
Speaker 4: the ending and some of the you know, you know,
Speaker 4: the ways it deals with you know, mel Gibson's ark
Speaker 4: in terms of regaining his faith or why did the
Speaker 4: aliens come to a planet made of water? I don't
Speaker 4: give a shit. It's just it's I just think it's
Speaker 4: remarkable filmmaking. And I find it scary and as scary
Speaker 4: in as moving as I did when I saw it,
Speaker 4: you know, twenty years ago.
Speaker 3: So I mean, yeah, that as one of the best
Speaker 3: uses that found footage ever. So in that scene fucked
Speaker 3: me up as a kid.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's still scary.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that. And when the alien's hand goes
Speaker 3: underneath the yeah.
Speaker 4: That shot of Yeah, that scene where mel Gibson's like, no,
Speaker 4: I'm not doing this, and then he that can't shot
Speaker 4: holds and he is about to walk away out of
Speaker 4: the house, and then he just pauses for a good
Speaker 4: three seconds and then he comes back with the knife,
Speaker 4: just sticking it in to see if you can get
Speaker 4: a reflection. And then it's good stuff. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Also some of them Knight's best comedy in this movie. Ye, yes,
Speaker 2: really really great comedic moments.
Speaker 4: I completely forgot about the moment where Rory Culkin's character
Speaker 4: is really fascinated by the crop circles at one point,
Speaker 4: and then Walking Phoenix just says, look, it's a bunch
Speaker 4: of kids who can't get girlfriends, and then they get
Speaker 4: in touch with other kids who can't get girlfriends, and
Speaker 4: then they decide to get attention and they create this
Speaker 4: whole conspiracy. It's bullshit. And then Mel Gibson just goes, yeah, Rory,
Speaker 4: why don't you put the book down? And it just
Speaker 4: gets back to Abigail Bres I'm going, why can't they
Speaker 4: get girlfriends?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I love science.
Speaker 3: Great movie, Yeah, good stuff. Okay, what number is this?
Speaker 2: Number?
Speaker 3: Eight? The Host probably the leastish horror movie on my list,
Speaker 3: definitely more of a drama, but still it's a creature feature.
Speaker 3: I wish there was a I'm pretty sure there's like
Speaker 3: a four K Overseas that maybe is not English friendly,
Speaker 3: but Magnoldia released it, so maybe as a part of
Speaker 3: the new OCN partnership, maybe we get a nice copy
Speaker 3: of The Host.
Speaker 4: Was this your first bond June Hoe? Because it was mine? Oh?
Speaker 3: Absolutely?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah this Netflix DVD ass movie, that's right?
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I love this movie, loved
Speaker 2: it even more after researching how much of it was
Speaker 2: based on very real life facts of the Korean and
Speaker 2: US government colluding on some really stupid shit to look
Speaker 2: people over. Incredible story. Bon June Hoe is a mastermind. Yeah,
Speaker 2: my number eight is a pick that probably could have
Speaker 2: been a lot higher on my list because I think
Speaker 2: this is a masterpiece. But kind of like Charlie mentioned
Speaker 2: for his number ten, this is just not a movie
Speaker 2: that I look on as I want to watch this
Speaker 2: once a year, like many of the other ones on here.
Speaker 2: So number eight is two thousand and eight Martyrs. I'm
Speaker 2: sure this is not the last time this is going
Speaker 2: to be talked about tonight. But this movie is perfection.
Speaker 2: This movie is traumatic and weird and ghastly and shows
Speaker 2: some of the darkest parts of humanity. But it is
Speaker 2: also perfect and beautiful and incredible storytelling and astonishingly acted
Speaker 2: considering what they're trying to portray, and just something that
Speaker 2: everybody needs to see at least once, if not three
Speaker 2: times to really get the gravity of it.
Speaker 4: This is a movie that I don't have nightmares about
Speaker 4: this movie, and I want to say it's a runner
Speaker 4: up for me. I always so close to putting it
Speaker 4: on my list. It's one of the rare movies where
Speaker 4: I've had nightmares about having to watch the movie again.
Speaker 4: Like it's not that I'm afraid of anything in the
Speaker 4: movie coming after me, it's the very fact that it's,
Speaker 4: like my nightmare just imagines that movie as even being
Speaker 4: more than it is. I will also say the first
Speaker 4: time I watched that movie, I was in college and
Speaker 4: two friends brought it over and I had no idea
Speaker 4: what it was. We might have smoked some weed, and
Speaker 4: about forty five minutes into the movie, I thought it
Speaker 4: was over, and then my friend looked at me and said,
Speaker 4: we haven't gotten started.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that was Yeah, that was me in high
Speaker 3: school being like I don't have any friends. The one
Speaker 3: I have, I'll just bring them over and be like, hey,
Speaker 3: watch this horror movie with me. Yeah, interesting time, all.
Speaker 2: Right, Charlie. Number eight.
Speaker 4: My number eight is I'm wondering if this is the
Speaker 4: same movie we're referring to Kevin. My number eight is
Speaker 4: American Psycho.
Speaker 3: Oh should I say if it's on hypothetically speaking, if
Speaker 3: it's higher on somebody else's list, Yeah, we talk about
Speaker 3: it now, but.
Speaker 4: Let's let Charlie talk about it now, Okay, I'll make
Speaker 4: a brief then. I mean, I love this movie. I
Speaker 4: remember blindly buying this movie for seven ninety nine at
Speaker 4: Newbury Comics. I came home from the mall. I left
Speaker 4: my bag on the table, my kitchen table, and went
Speaker 4: to the bathroom. I heard my dad exclaim oh God,
Speaker 4: and came out and he was like, have you seen this?
Speaker 4: Holding it up? And I went no, not yet, and
Speaker 4: he was like, I have this is messed up. And
Speaker 4: I just think this movie is it? We covered it
Speaker 4: on almost Major two years ago, now was it.
Speaker 3: Might be seven years? I don't know, I will.
Speaker 4: It's it's been a little while. I mean, I mean,
Speaker 4: I think that when it comes to horror and subverting
Speaker 4: the male gaze, and also especially when it comes to
Speaker 4: I have not read Breddy's and Elis's novel. I've read
Speaker 4: less than zero and probably some short stories that he's done.
Speaker 4: But like, I just think that the way this film
Speaker 4: examines masculinity and yuppie culture and misogyny is in a darkly, darkly,
Speaker 4: darkly satirical edge, while also giving you lots of aftermaths
Speaker 4: of violence that allows you to Fill in the blanks
Speaker 4: is simultaneously shocking and disturbing and funny, and I think
Speaker 4: there's a reason this movie has stood the test of time.
Speaker 4: It's also fascinating to look at the initial reactions of
Speaker 4: this movie when it played at Sundance and how people
Speaker 4: were aphalled by it, and Roger Ebert, I think was
Speaker 4: saying he was one of the few staunch defenders of
Speaker 4: it during the festival, and now it's I think it
Speaker 4: cuts deep into a lot of the ways we look
Speaker 4: at materialism, a lot of the ways we look into,
Speaker 4: you know, superficial forms of success, you know, I mean there,
Speaker 4: It's such a rich, sickly funny movie that I think
Speaker 4: is just it's just one of a kind. I love
Speaker 4: this movie.
Speaker 3: So yeah, as somebody who has read the book, boy, Yeah,
Speaker 3: maybe I'll talk about it later. My number seven, probably
Speaker 3: besides August Underground movie that has messed me up the most.
Speaker 3: I watched this, I'd say pretty recently, probably about three
Speaker 3: years ago, and was not prepared for how fucked up
Speaker 3: this movie is number seven.
Speaker 4: Even Lake, Oh boy, Yeah, that's an honorable mention for me.
Speaker 3: This yeah, fuck, that's part of you.
Speaker 2: That's pretty accurate.
Speaker 3: Yeah, talk about an ending that it's just like, I'll
Speaker 3: just go walk in the street. That's cool. Man movie
Speaker 3: does not care. If there's ever been a more fun
Speaker 3: than kids movie, I haven't seen it.
Speaker 4: It's crazy to me. I will just say I saw
Speaker 4: the new Speak No Evil remake, which was directed by
Speaker 4: James Watkins, who did Eden Lake and it is. I
Speaker 4: remember when I heard that he was gonna direct the
Speaker 4: remake and I was just like, oh, well, that movie's
Speaker 4: not gonna play any punches. Not to spoil anything about
Speaker 4: Speaking Evil, but it differs from the original. Just kind
Speaker 4: of walked out with a shrug. But Eden Lake, Yeah,
Speaker 4: you're right, Kevin, that that like it's hard to go
Speaker 4: to Like I watched that movie late at night, and
Speaker 4: it was hard to go to sleep after. It's just like,
Speaker 4: all right, I.
Speaker 3: Just go to as after you after you watch it?
Speaker 3: What else are you gonna do? You have to just
Speaker 3: go to sleep, there's nothing like, Okay, what else are
Speaker 3: we gonna No, nothing is done, nothing is going on.
Speaker 3: This is the end.
Speaker 4: Throwing a few episodes of SpongeBob from Amazon Prime or something,
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: That's what I did when I watched the Serbian film
Speaker 3: for the first time. I was like, I, I it's
Speaker 3: five PM. I can't just go to sleep, so I
Speaker 3: guess I'm watching SpongeBob while rocking back and forth. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I think that what makes that movie so good too,
Speaker 4: is that it puts you in a complete moral conundrum
Speaker 4: where they are.
Speaker 3: Just kids, but no, fuck that get them out here.
Speaker 4: It's self defense, but they are Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love the commentary on even like keep Going
Speaker 2: My My Number seven is the first remake that we
Speaker 2: are going to talk about tonight, which the two thousands
Speaker 2: ripe with remakes. Obviously there's many, many, many of them
Speaker 2: out there. This one may be the most unique that
Speaker 2: we're going to talk about tonight, probably because this is
Speaker 2: two thousand and seven's Funny Games and it's a direct
Speaker 2: of the film. Michael Hannekea is somebody that has made
Speaker 2: some desolate, dark, depressing movies, and Funny Games is no exception.
Speaker 2: What's crazy, though, is that he made basically the exact
Speaker 2: same movie twice, this one for English audiences with Tim
Speaker 2: Roth and Naomi Watts. Incredibly effective one that still has
Speaker 2: no Blu Ray release, which is depressing in itself, absolutely
Speaker 2: deserves it because it's an incredible movie. I saw. This
Speaker 2: was the very first Hannica film I ever saw. Absolutely
Speaker 2: loved this thing. Showed it to a bunch of people
Speaker 2: and they all looked at me like I was insane
Speaker 2: for showing them this movie. It is something that again
Speaker 2: doesn't hold back, subverts any of your expectations in a
Speaker 2: way that will only piss you off if you've never
Speaker 2: seen it. It takes your experience as a viewer and
Speaker 2: even throws that on its head. And based on that,
Speaker 2: I knew that it had to be on my list.
Speaker 2: It was one of the first movie watching experiences that
Speaker 2: made me change my perspective of how I approached film
Speaker 2: and based on had a major impact for me.
Speaker 3: Both are great. I put the remake over the original,
Speaker 3: like by that much. The best review I ever heard
Speaker 3: from this movie was my friend at the time. She said,
Speaker 3: I hated that movie, and that movie hated me.
Speaker 2: Yeah it does.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean it's also fascinating. I know there was
Speaker 4: some pushback to it because some people when it came
Speaker 4: out in two thousand and seven were like, well, it's
Speaker 4: just the same movie. Why did he make the same
Speaker 4: thing again? After Saw and Hostile and all the torture porn.
Speaker 4: It really does feel like Michael Hanaka being like, we're
Speaker 4: none of you listening to me ten years ago, Like
Speaker 4: it really and I think yeah, And I think it
Speaker 4: absolutely for that reason alone, and you know, got the
Speaker 4: attention of a lot of people who never would have
Speaker 4: sought out the original. I did see the original first,
Speaker 4: mainly because the remake was coming out and I had Netflix,
Speaker 4: and yeah, it's it is funny how I should use
Speaker 4: that word. It's like I I do remember. I think
Speaker 4: it was an old av Club podcast where it was
Speaker 4: Scott Tobias and Tasha Robinson, and Tasha Robinson was mentioning
Speaker 4: I hated this movie because it felt like it was
Speaker 4: punishing me for wanting sick, disgusting violence, and I don't
Speaker 4: go to the movies for sick, disgusting violence. So I
Speaker 4: fast forwarded through it because I didn't feel like being
Speaker 4: lectured for something I don't even crave. And then Scott
Speaker 4: Tobias just goes well, I liked it, which I think
Speaker 4: is a reaction. I feel like it is one of
Speaker 4: the most divisive movies of this genre because I feel
Speaker 4: like a lot of people feel like they are getting
Speaker 4: finger wagged and are like, but horror movies teach us
Speaker 4: a lot about you know, horror movies are actually moral.
Speaker 4: Horror movies are you know, life affirming and all this stuff.
Speaker 4: And I'm like, I think it can be two things
Speaker 4: at once. I really think that movie can be. But
Speaker 4: this is what you wanted, and absolutely you know there
Speaker 4: is some truth to that movie. And I think some
Speaker 4: people don't like having the fun house mirror pointed back
Speaker 4: at them, which is exactly what this movie does. So
Speaker 4: all right, your number seven, Charlie, My number seven. Another
Speaker 4: movie that has been mentioned already tonight, and I swear
Speaker 4: I did not know that so many of these movies
Speaker 4: would be mentioned in the lineup. But it is Bug,
Speaker 4: which I feel like a lot of people can also
Speaker 4: say that's not horror either, but psychological horror. I think
Speaker 4: this movie. It's a movie I honestly didn't love the
Speaker 4: first time I saw it, and I remember the ending
Speaker 4: feeling a little bit like a letdown, and then it's
Speaker 4: one that I've returned to weirdly. Don't ask me why
Speaker 4: I'm a sick person, but it's a film about when
Speaker 4: it comes to analyzing horror, just the ways in which
Speaker 4: someone's loneliness can make them so the ways in which
Speaker 4: loneliness can consume you to the point that you are
Speaker 4: willing to believe and buy into this con probably conspiratorial
Speaker 4: theory that Michael Fannon's character has, I feel like has
Speaker 4: only gone gotten more relevant over time and very upsetting ways.
Speaker 4: And I think that another movie that you know, it's
Speaker 4: an emotionally horrifying film, more so than a I'm afraid of,
Speaker 4: like you know, potential jump scares or what's coming there
Speaker 4: are actually bugs. It was more about just watching these
Speaker 4: people deteriorate because they felt all too real to me.
Speaker 4: And even though it is based on a stage play
Speaker 4: by Tracy Let's and it was advertised, as we mentioned
Speaker 4: earlier in the episode, is something that was completely literal.
Speaker 4: I think that this movie is so primal and so
Speaker 4: emotionally charged in ways that are both darkly funny and
Speaker 4: deeply disturbing all at once. And by the time you
Speaker 4: get to the end, even though I remember the first
Speaker 4: time I felt like the ending was a letdown, it
Speaker 4: really is like, well, there's no other way this thing
Speaker 4: could have ended that way, And then the impact that
Speaker 4: you're left with by the end of it, I don't know.
Speaker 4: I'm realizing some of these movies, like in My Skin
Speaker 4: You could also be related to this or deal with
Speaker 4: more psychological breakdowns, which I don't know what that says
Speaker 4: about me, but I find it. You know, it's it's
Speaker 4: It's a very underappreciated installment in Freakin's filmography, in my
Speaker 4: opinion at least. So yeah, kicks ass.
Speaker 3: Uh speaking of kicking ass, but also a movie with
Speaker 3: an ending that I've only seen this once, but like
Speaker 3: with another film from this director, like the last shot
Speaker 3: of it, it made me just be like, uh, wait,
Speaker 3: hold on, I need to rewatch this movie immediately. Is
Speaker 3: a Pulse.
Speaker 2: Nice?
Speaker 3: Uh yeah? Both this and Cure? Like the last shot,
Speaker 3: I'm just like, no, hold on, hold the funk on, Yeah,
Speaker 3: I need to rewatch this immediately. I haven't rewatched them,
Speaker 3: but it's it's totally entirely my shit. Early two thousand's
Speaker 3: fear of the Internet just depressing and scary as hell.
Speaker 3: What more do you want?
Speaker 2: I don't know why I like Pulse a lot more
Speaker 2: than Cure.
Speaker 3: I don't. I've only seen both of them once, and
Speaker 3: they're for me. They're like, I feel like kind of
Speaker 3: the same, but both I mean, Kyoshi curis always guy
Speaker 3: that I can't wait to dive into because almost anything
Speaker 3: everything I've seen up light and everything that I haven't
Speaker 3: seen I'm interested in.
Speaker 4: So yeah, looking forward to Cloud, which is premiered to
Speaker 4: Tiff earlier this year, and Jesus Christ time is incredible. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 4: I don't know, Maybe I'll it's something more to say
Speaker 4: later about that one.
Speaker 3: Hey wait a minute.
Speaker 2: My number six then, is probably the most interesting to
Speaker 2: me on my list because this is the only one
Speaker 2: that is a discovery from this year. The very first
Speaker 2: time I watched it was just a couple of months ago,
Speaker 2: and that is two thousand and Eight's the chaser another
Speaker 2: oh shit, I love that reaction. So this is interesting
Speaker 2: because it's it is basically a crime thriller in a
Speaker 2: serial kill horror movie wrapped with some interesting action, and
Speaker 2: so it's part horror for sure. But I mean, this
Speaker 2: movie again holds nothing back, is so well made. It
Speaker 2: starts fucking immediately the moment the movie starts, and it's
Speaker 2: just an engrossing story that I I mean, there was
Speaker 2: like five times I thought the movie was about to
Speaker 2: be over, and they just keep throwing it at you
Speaker 2: and I didn't want it to end. It was so
Speaker 2: damn well made, one of the most compelling plot lines
Speaker 2: that I've seen in the last couple of years. Absolutely
Speaker 2: loved it so much so that I've already watched it
Speaker 2: twice this year, which I don't get to eat that
Speaker 2: movies very much at all. I adored this movie.
Speaker 3: Didn't that just come out? The blue ray of that
Speaker 3: could just come out?
Speaker 2: Who put that umbrella? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, oh you got it the last time we were here,
Speaker 3: That's what I remember. Yeah, I just got I haven't
Speaker 3: seen that. I've seen the whalane which kicks ass. I
Speaker 3: just went of that. Yeah, yeah, I just pushed the
Speaker 3: chaser up to my top of my I watched this.
Speaker 3: I need to watch that.
Speaker 2: Knowing your taste, you're gonna love it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's some brutal stuff in that movie.
Speaker 2: Good, all right, What do we got next?
Speaker 4: This is probably my most basic pick, but look, I
Speaker 4: gotta go with my gut and it's a remake. It's
Speaker 4: the Ring. I know they're gonna upgrade this one to
Speaker 4: four K, but this most recent release is pretty awesome
Speaker 4: in terms of the steel book that it has. I
Speaker 4: would never say this is the scariest movie ever made.
Speaker 4: But I think this is the most scared I have
Speaker 4: ever been watching a movie, because I remember this movie
Speaker 4: came out in two thousand and two, so I was
Speaker 4: and I didn't see it until it came out on VHS,
Speaker 4: so I was twelve, and I remember it just being
Speaker 4: a big dare in middle school, like everybody was watching it,
Speaker 4: and it was the first time I actually I knew
Speaker 4: it was going to fuck me up, and a part
Speaker 4: of me dreaded it, but I really wanted to be
Speaker 4: part of the zeitgeist, even as a pre teen. And
Speaker 4: I remember my neighbor who lived across the street was
Speaker 4: able to rent it, and our parents were friends, and
Speaker 4: I remember it was just like, well, my parents won't
Speaker 4: say no if you're able to get it. So we
Speaker 4: watched it then where my parents knew. They kind of
Speaker 4: looked at me when they were like, we rented this
Speaker 4: for the kids, and you know, my parents were like, oh,
Speaker 4: dear God, and I but you know, nostalgia side, I
Speaker 4: also I lived across the street, and then after it
Speaker 4: was over, I remember I asked to spend the night,
Speaker 4: even though I could have walked a mere few feet
Speaker 4: back to my home. Even though my parents went home,
Speaker 4: I could not be alone after this when I was
Speaker 4: but I was twelve anyway, nostalgia side, I think I
Speaker 4: love this movie. I love it even more I did
Speaker 4: see it before the Japanese original. I'm not even gonna
Speaker 4: say the Japanese original isn't better, but I do, you know,
Speaker 4: I have a real fondness for this. I love that this.
Speaker 4: What I think this movie has that a lot of
Speaker 4: the other Jay horror remakes don't is that it had
Speaker 4: its own American aesthetic, Like you know, it's the blues
Speaker 4: and greens and turquoise, you know of Seattle and the
Speaker 4: rainy American Gothic stylizations. And I love that Naomi Watts
Speaker 4: is a kind of a terrible mother but loves her son,
Speaker 4: and she's a workaholic, and you're stuck with, you know,
Speaker 4: someone who is a deeply frustrating character who also is
Speaker 4: put through the ringer, and it feels like an actual person,
Speaker 4: which a lot of the other you know, the Grudge,
Speaker 4: for example, is basically just I like I think it
Speaker 4: was Roderriebert who was like, it's just a bunch of
Speaker 4: people sticking their arms, legs, heads, and you know, other
Speaker 4: body parts and places they heard a scary noise, and
Speaker 4: this one, even though it is a remake, I feel
Speaker 4: like is very prescient and predicted the future of the
Speaker 4: internet where look at where we are now virality has
Speaker 4: taken over. And the fact that it was on a
Speaker 4: VHS tape. I don't remember who pointed this out, but
Speaker 4: it's like it's that it's like analog's Last Revenge, you know,
Speaker 4: like it's kind of the last bloody scream into the void, right,
Speaker 4: And and I find it oddly as much as this
Speaker 4: movie fucked me up, I find it oddly comforting. Also
Speaker 4: probably something that people will be like, you're insane. I
Speaker 4: think the Hans Zimber score in this movie is so
Speaker 4: gorgeous and it might be my favorite thing he's ever done.
Speaker 2: I agreed with the gorgeous part.
Speaker 4: Best thing ever is that I'm not Okay, maybe I'm
Speaker 4: not saying it's his best I just said favorites, But
Speaker 4: and I think Naomi Wats is just incredible, just absolutely
Speaker 4: amazing in this movie.
Speaker 3: You're fired, No, I'm not, Yes, you are no, I'm not.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, of orse, she's eating yogurt and then I'm cooking
Speaker 4: too good a story in the boss goes what is it?
Speaker 4: And then she picks up the phone and just like
Speaker 4: shoes him away.
Speaker 2: I know you didn't want to go out on that limb,
Speaker 2: but I will say I think this is better than
Speaker 2: the original for sure.
Speaker 3: I've only seen the original once. I saw it when
Speaker 3: it was RINGU when they released that Universe will release
Speaker 3: that DVD back in the day. I haven't seen it
Speaker 3: since then. But I did get the since there was
Speaker 3: a tartan Asian extreme, I did get that Ring trilogy
Speaker 3: that I'll be going through. But yeah, piggybacking off of
Speaker 3: my Yu Gi oh Ring story, I will say this
Speaker 3: made my horrible mentions. It probably could have made my
Speaker 3: top ten. But yeah, watching that HS that I that
Speaker 3: I slaved away waiting to get at Hastings and being
Speaker 3: like Mirror maybe a foot away from my TV late night.
Speaker 3: It's at Sunday night when that closet jump scare happens.
Speaker 3: I will never forget that. I will never forget that
Speaker 3: I was.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I will never either, because I think every other
Speaker 4: jump scare you can at least see it coming a
Speaker 4: little bit in this movie, but that just takes place
Speaker 4: during a sad scene at a funeral where characters are
Speaker 4: having a quiet moment, there's no score, There's no way
Speaker 4: you could ever predict that fucking jump cut.
Speaker 3: And now now when as an adult the jump scare
Speaker 3: that happens before that, I was like, oh shit, I forgot.
Speaker 3: Adam Brodie's in this.
Speaker 4: I love when he shows up and he says the
Speaker 4: videotape the one that kills you when you watch it,
Speaker 4: and somebody's just like, Adam, don't.
Speaker 3: It's true, you know, They're just like, oh, go back
Speaker 3: to the OC.
Speaker 4: I love how Naomi Watts is also so annoying to
Speaker 4: so many people in this movie, where they're just like,
Speaker 4: can you just like we were kind of having a
Speaker 4: moment here, can you like? Not like She's like that
Speaker 4: with everybody in this movie.
Speaker 2: She's just so good though.
Speaker 4: It's just so Yeah.
Speaker 3: It's a secretly the prequel to the Book of Henry. Anyways,
Speaker 3: my number five. I think I watched this for the
Speaker 3: first time right around the same time I watched Eaton
Speaker 3: Lake a few years ago. It was a found footage
Speaker 3: mockumentary that I wanted to see for a long time.
Speaker 3: More than just being scary, it's deeply sad and it
Speaker 3: is Lake Mungo. I remember to ear what spurred this is.
Speaker 3: I was watching something it was like best WHOOPI fucking
Speaker 3: dudes of best found footage, and it spoiled the jump
Speaker 3: scare in this, but it intrigued me so much that
Speaker 3: I watched it, and the jump scares still fun work.
Speaker 3: It's one of the best jump scares, not the best
Speaker 3: jump scare, which is coming soon. But yeah, this is
Speaker 3: just really really great found footage slash mockumentary type movie
Speaker 3: that Yeah, by the end of it, you're just like,
Speaker 3: I'm not even scared anymore. I'm just just sad I
Speaker 3: didn't sign up for that. Yeah, so, Lake Munggo, you
Speaker 3: haven't seen it. It's pretty great.
Speaker 4: One of the first movies that I remember because Kevin
Speaker 4: and I met on a game night over Zoom during Lockdown,
Speaker 4: and I remember that being the first movie that you
Speaker 4: like recommended that I remember like later on and I
Speaker 4: felt the exact same way where I was just like, okay,
Speaker 4: went in for the scares. Now I'm left deeply filled
Speaker 4: with sorrow.
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, this is a good watch, and I think
Speaker 2: that one is assy as well. Actually, if I remember right,
Speaker 2: I believe so, Yeah, somewhere down there at least. All right,
Speaker 2: my number five is probably the the smallest movie I've
Speaker 2: got left, probably only bigger than Plonnypool on my list
Speaker 2: so far, actually, And that is another movie from two
Speaker 2: thousand and eight that I saw late night, and I
Speaker 2: think this was a Netflix DVD pickup. And this movie
Speaker 2: really got to me because I've always loved body horror.
Speaker 2: I especially love bodyhoror that you cannot physically control anything
Speaker 2: that you are being affected by, and that's why I
Speaker 2: love Splinter.
Speaker 3: I've not seen this mean either.
Speaker 2: This movie is insanity. This movie starts off with a
Speaker 2: couple arguing in a car and they literally within the
Speaker 2: first thirty seconds of the movie, they drive by a
Speaker 2: sign that says something like nuclear testing facility, just to
Speaker 2: give you the little setup. And they're driving along and
Speaker 2: then they see somebody that is hitch hiking, and lo
Speaker 2: and behold, they pick up this guy and he's not
Speaker 2: a good person, and he takes them hostage, essentially makes
Speaker 2: them go to this gas station. But as you are
Speaker 2: all seeing, and this is in the first three minutes
Speaker 2: of the movie, you pull up to this gas station
Speaker 2: and there is this creature. I guess is the right
Speaker 2: word to use here, and it is essentially a black,
Speaker 2: spiky goo that you can't really understand what it is.
Speaker 2: You see that it's able to move, and you see
Speaker 2: it attacking some other people, and the way that it
Speaker 2: attacks these people, it makes their bodies do things completely
Speaker 2: out of the control, where their bones and their body
Speaker 2: and everything splinters in different directions. That's where the title
Speaker 2: comes from. And so they are stuck in this gas
Speaker 2: station with the three of them, and they have nowhere
Speaker 2: to go because this thing is outside trying to get
Speaker 2: to them. And it eventually turns into a survival horror
Speaker 2: ached into a creature feature movie, and it is terrifying
Speaker 2: and silly and like aggravating with some of the things
Speaker 2: that happens, and there's just something about it that it
Speaker 2: is this weird comfort food movie for me that I've
Speaker 2: seen so many fucking times now because all of it
Speaker 2: is just you can't, no matter how many times you've
Speaker 2: seen it, you can't believe that it's actually happening to
Speaker 2: them the way that it is. And highly recommend it.
Speaker 2: I feel like hardly anybody has seen this movie. It
Speaker 2: is incredible. Had a decent blu ray from I think
Speaker 2: Magnet or somebody like that. Oh, yeah, one that I
Speaker 2: think most people should pick up. It's pretty great.
Speaker 3: Yeah that sounds hot. I need to watch it.
Speaker 4: Just added it to my watch list on Letterbox Nice.
Speaker 2: Siminars says it sounds like the raft from Creep Show too,
Speaker 2: honestly a little bit of the same imagery.
Speaker 4: All right, Number five, Charlie, My number five is the
Speaker 4: best R rated movie I ever snuck into. It is
Speaker 4: the the sense.
Speaker 3: Oh that's my next one, so let's just let's knock
Speaker 3: it out.
Speaker 2: Hell that's my number four.
Speaker 6: Is hell yeah, hell yeah, I mean a I just
Speaker 6: want to say, one of the best reasons that was
Speaker 6: the best movie I ever snuck into is I remember.
Speaker 4: I mean, I just love the fact that this movie
Speaker 4: a bunch of female cave you know, it was full
Speaker 4: lunkers who This movie makes you feel so afraid of
Speaker 4: the environment before anything bad happens. On top of that,
Speaker 4: gives you very emotionally charged opening, so you understand these
Speaker 4: characters' mindsets, you understand the relationships with one another, and
Speaker 4: then you're just feeling suffocated by the environment. And seeing
Speaker 4: this movie in a theater in which so many shots
Speaker 4: are just illuminated by the headlamps that they are wearing.
Speaker 4: Seeing this in a theater, I had no idea where
Speaker 4: the screen began or ended. All I saw were just dark,
Speaker 4: you know, like beams of light. I will also say
Speaker 4: one of the most my friends, who I'm sure he's
Speaker 4: still pissed at me about this, but I got two
Speaker 4: friends to sneak into this movie with me, one of
Speaker 4: whom knew what it was. The other was just like whatever,
Speaker 4: I'll I'm up for anything. Just had no idea what
Speaker 4: we were getting into. So I want to say, fifty
Speaker 4: minutes into this movie, you get the first silhouette of
Speaker 4: one of the creatures just opening its jaw and blood
Speaker 4: dripping from its mouth. And my friend just looked at
Speaker 4: me and said, what the fuck was that? And I went,
Speaker 4: this is a horror movie, and he was like, you
Speaker 4: didn't tell me were He was like whispering, you didn't
Speaker 4: tell me we were sneaking into horror movie. I'm like,
Speaker 4: what do you think this was? I don't know, splunkers
Speaker 4: like and then like as soon as like the gore starts.
Speaker 4: I think it's also it's such an effective use of
Speaker 4: violence because the violence is relentless and gory and disgusting,
Speaker 4: but also a bunch of badass women fighting back. You've
Speaker 4: got the steaks up until then, you know the emotional steaks,
Speaker 4: you know the physical stakes, and then you're just left
Speaker 4: with absolute carnage to the point that it's all elevated
Speaker 4: and then just is relentless. And that friend called me
Speaker 4: at two in the morning and was like, I can't sleep.
Speaker 3: I hate you, so recommendation.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I love this movie. I mean I still
Speaker 4: watch this movie with friends who haven't seen it, And
Speaker 4: that that shot, that jump scare with the night vision,
Speaker 4: the night vision still makes people yelp or jump like
Speaker 4: and I think that just stands.
Speaker 3: It's even better is like the sounding for that is
Speaker 3: like three seconds late, so it hits you like after
Speaker 3: you've already seen it and you've already jumped, so it's
Speaker 3: like it choreographs it perfectly. I don't have anything else
Speaker 3: to add in this movie kicks ass. Thankfully there was
Speaker 3: never a sequel made.
Speaker 4: Isn't Isn't one of the characters who I gotta go back, No,
Speaker 4: but like yeah, one of the characters that part of
Speaker 4: the whole emotional gut punch of the ending is like,
Speaker 4: oh shit, this one character probably is dead, and then
Speaker 4: the second one they're like, no, that person's alive.
Speaker 2: No.
Speaker 3: The sequel is a sequel to the American ending of it,
Speaker 3: which ends where she leaves, and it's just jump scared
Speaker 3: by Juno or whatever, so that I don't understand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I love this movie too. Obviously here at number four,
Speaker 2: I think that it's Neil Marshall's best film by leaps
Speaker 2: and bounds. Ye, Dog Soldiers is also great, but was
Speaker 2: nowhere near my list or my honorable mentions. But yeah,
Speaker 2: this is amazing. The human drama that is in this
Speaker 2: is also fantastic, and I think that's one of the
Speaker 2: things that makes it such a great movie is that,
Speaker 2: not only is it an incredible monster movie, it does
Speaker 2: have the very cliched the humans are the monsters all
Speaker 2: along story that we get a lot. And yeah, the
Speaker 2: relationship drama that's in this is very akin to I
Speaker 2: don't want to spoil anything, and so I'll say a
Speaker 2: very recent horror movie from a couple of years ago
Speaker 2: that I just watched with KB actually and surprised to
Speaker 2: see that they went with such a similar storyline. Considering
Speaker 2: so now we're all the way back, I believe to Charlie.
Speaker 4: That's fun. So my number four is another movie we've
Speaker 4: covered on the pod, The Devil's Rejects, which, of course, yeah,
Speaker 4: I love this demented, twisted, disgusting, arguably a moral little movie.
Speaker 4: I this is another movie that just blew me away
Speaker 4: When I was like fourteen fifteen, blindly bought it at Blockbuster,
Speaker 4: much to my parents' disapproval, but they were like, whatever,
Speaker 4: we can't stop you at this point, and I, you know,
Speaker 4: it's it's kind of like our torture porn version of
Speaker 4: Bonnie and Clyde in a certain way. Like I mean,
Speaker 4: it's I out of all the torture porn movies to
Speaker 4: come out, and the ones in which you are you
Speaker 4: are pummeled with sickening, gratuitous violence. I think this movie,
Speaker 4: whether or not it was even intentional, has a lot
Speaker 4: to say about, you know, what it feels like to
Speaker 4: be in the driver's seat with killers as opposed to
Speaker 4: the victims, and how the tables get turned at the end,
Speaker 4: and how your complicity as a viewer and a voyeur
Speaker 4: also comes into play. I also think that just on
Speaker 4: a technical level, Rob Zombie Play pays so much homage
Speaker 4: to grindhouse classics from Time's Gone Past. The classic rock
Speaker 4: soundtrack is amazing. The performances, as historyonic and over the
Speaker 4: top as they are, are brilliant in how over the
Speaker 4: top they are. I I, you know, we've talked about
Speaker 4: it at length already, Kevin and I. I. You know.
Speaker 4: I few movies make me feel as sick for loving
Speaker 4: them and being as entertained by them as this one.
Speaker 4: But I can't deny that this movie kind of makes
Speaker 4: me love movies in its own demented, fucked up way.
Speaker 3: So that's one of the best episodes we've ever done
Speaker 3: because it was a movie movie. Yeah, that was a
Speaker 3: movie that did not want to watch. Didn't want to
Speaker 3: do it for the pod did it? Did it because
Speaker 3: Charlie asked so nicely. Well, rewatched it, didn't like it
Speaker 3: a few days later, liked it, was liking it a
Speaker 3: little bit more, a few days later, a little bit
Speaker 3: more bumped up my radian. Then our our episode Scout
Speaker 3: Dafoya just talked about it so amazingly that I was
Speaker 3: just like, Nah, I think I kind of like this actually,
Speaker 3: so check that out.
Speaker 2: Uh, you stole my thunder a little bit. I did
Speaker 2: want to throw in before you said that that this
Speaker 2: is my favorite episode of almost major ever. Hell is
Speaker 2: the episode that is why I think a lot of
Speaker 2: us do love podcasting like this, because you could tell
Speaker 2: someone genuinely, like almost viscerally, hated the film and then
Speaker 2: just through discussion went well, fuck, I kind of love
Speaker 2: the movie now, and just hearing Scout Dafoya guide multiple
Speaker 2: people into that was it's a treat and and it's
Speaker 2: people like Scout that inspire a lot of us to
Speaker 2: do this.
Speaker 3: Yeah, these are the best. Just recently rewatched House of
Speaker 3: a Thousand just because, which is my favorite Rob Zombie movie,
Speaker 3: and I was like, eh, they're on Devil's Rejects gain
Speaker 3: but I didn't. But yeah, my next one we've already
Speaker 3: talked about, and I don't really have anything much crazier
Speaker 3: to say is American Psycho great stuff.
Speaker 2: Well that's a nice segue into the one that I'm
Speaker 2: gonna talk about next, because my number three is House
Speaker 2: of a Thousand corpses.
Speaker 4: Hell.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Love Devil's Rejects. I love this one. I love Halloween two.
Speaker 2: I I like most of Rob Zombie stuff. He has
Speaker 2: made one or two that are just not good movies,
Speaker 2: but House of a Thousand from this decade is the
Speaker 2: one that I love just unabashedly, and I think the
Speaker 2: reason is primarily because this is, you know, from the
Speaker 2: point of view from the victims, but also a deep
Speaker 2: diving to said, hey, who I adore.
Speaker 3: Have so much fun in it. Oh my god.
Speaker 2: The fact that we get Rain Wilson and Chris Hardwick
Speaker 2: as our two male leads at the very beginning is
Speaker 2: such an interesting lead in and such a weird like
Speaker 2: slice of the mid two thousands there, uh, and yet
Speaker 2: they're both perfect and the story is compelling and beautiful
Speaker 2: and gross. And I mean, you know, Charlie already said
Speaker 2: the word grindhouse, but this is like definitively grindhouse in
Speaker 2: every single scene everything you can. You can taste the
Speaker 2: air watching this movie. You can see when they when
Speaker 2: the shares pull up at the very end of this movie,
Speaker 2: just the amount of dust that gets thrown up, you
Speaker 2: just go, fuck like I have stood on a dirt
Speaker 2: road and felt that gross feeling that they're all feeling
Speaker 2: right outside right now, and most other movies cannot portray
Speaker 2: that like that, and Zombie just nailed it. With both
Speaker 2: of these movies, they're obviously going for two very different things.
Speaker 2: I just prefer this one slightly, but it's it's an
Speaker 2: incredible feat masterclass.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love it because there's so much movie in
Speaker 3: this movie. Like he's still shaking off the music video
Speaker 3: director stuff, so he's just like, I'm get split diopter,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna get split screens, sped up, slow down, I
Speaker 3: don't give a shit. And that's what I love about it.
Speaker 3: We watching it. I'm sure I mentioned this in the pod,
Speaker 3: but the the what is it? The what's the song
Speaker 3: that plays? I Remember you? The slow down scene so impactful,
Speaker 3: and then whenever old mad Damon is about to die
Speaker 3: and it flashes to his character at Christmas with his
Speaker 3: family for like two seconds. It is so fucking heartbreaking.
Speaker 3: It's so it's so good. Yes, that's his name, Old
Speaker 3: Dame and come on.
Speaker 2: Now, all right, number three to you, Charlie.
Speaker 4: It's been mentioned already, but and also Kevin not only
Speaker 4: mentioned it but also showed it. I have the same copy.
Speaker 4: It's pulse.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I yeah, there's something about this movie that really I
Speaker 4: watch it for the first time. I did see the
Speaker 4: really shitty remake like Opening Night.
Speaker 3: I forgot I did, Yes.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's awful. And I remember that movie being
Speaker 4: so bad that it put me off seeing the original
Speaker 4: for a little bit, and then I saw it in
Speaker 4: like twenty sixteen, and I think, I mean kind of
Speaker 4: talking about similar themes. I guess this is another through
Speaker 4: line too, the Ring and this one, you know, was
Speaker 4: even a year before that and deals with the Internet.
Speaker 4: I think this movie's very pressy and about how the
Speaker 4: internet can bring us together, like bright now we're all
Speaker 4: having a wonderful time together and creating, you know, a
Speaker 4: nice little community.
Speaker 3: And we're all dead.
Speaker 4: But there is something about this movie in the not
Speaker 4: just the ways it talks about how the internet can
Speaker 4: make us, you know, even though it's meant to be
Speaker 4: a tool that brings us all together, can make us
Speaker 4: feel just as isolated and having us scream into the void.
Speaker 4: And just on a technical level, the way that Kyoshikiri
Speaker 4: Sawa frames bodies and just has certain moments of people
Speaker 4: just in frames. Just there's moments where it'll just be
Speaker 4: a ghost just standing there and then they'll just do
Speaker 4: a little like woo, and you're like, this is technically
Speaker 4: so simple, and yet it's the most upsetting, disturbing thing
Speaker 4: and the ways in which this movie doesn't make sense
Speaker 4: and yet it all makes sense in a visceral way
Speaker 4: when you're watching it, like in in a ghostly logic,
Speaker 4: and how it manages to tie feelings of supernatural other
Speaker 4: worldliness to the Internet, which, especially during two thousand and one,
Speaker 4: is a tool that we are still learning we don't
Speaker 4: fully have control over, or or a naive when it
Speaker 4: comes to the impact it will have on us, and
Speaker 4: the ways in which it can be weaponized, the ways
Speaker 4: in which he's able to meld those two the themes
Speaker 4: with just simple spooky imagery. I think it just makes
Speaker 4: it incredible. And I also think I mean, I guess
Speaker 4: to tie it back to In My Skin, just the
Speaker 4: way it ties the supernatural. I mean In My Skin
Speaker 4: isn't supernatural, but the ways in which it's able to
Speaker 4: discuss depression in a way feels very real, even in
Speaker 4: such a even in such a you know, heightened over
Speaker 4: the top supernatural, uh perspective. I mean this movie, you know,
Speaker 4: there are scenes that technically don't make sense, but it
Speaker 4: doesn't matter. They make sense when you watch them emotionally,
Speaker 4: and I think that's kind of what horror is all about.
Speaker 3: So yeah, oh man, top two. Both of these are
Speaker 3: like top five horror movies all time for me. So
Speaker 3: let's see did we mean? I think we already did
Speaker 3: kind of mention this movie, but I saw this when
Speaker 3: it came out, knots was there anything? No? Okay, so
Speaker 3: oh fuck it, I'll just show this would be a
Speaker 3: lot of wind up. Number two is clover Field great movie?
Speaker 3: I was. I was definitely there whenever I wasn't that
Speaker 3: they are in the theater, but when the teaser dropped
Speaker 3: with transformers and everybody online was like, what the fuck
Speaker 3: is this? From July of Oven up until release day,
Speaker 3: was just fascinated by the release of this movie and
Speaker 3: everything around it. And I'll never forget seeing the first
Speaker 3: full shot you see of the monster in close up.
Speaker 3: It's still fucking terrifying. I this movie uses found footage
Speaker 3: and POV so brilliantly. You feel so small while watching
Speaker 3: this movie, and it makes the monster so terrifying. Like
Speaker 3: big monster movies don't scare me, but this one does
Speaker 3: because you can feel just how large and how destructive
Speaker 3: this thing is. And it's not going for laps and
Speaker 3: the monster's not going for lass also, and it ends
Speaker 3: on a downer.
Speaker 2: What more do you want?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's fucking terrifying. I love it so much.
Speaker 4: You're always through their perspective too, so you're always at
Speaker 4: their ground level, unless they're in the skyscraper at the beginning, right, Like.
Speaker 4: I think that's another thing is you know the camera
Speaker 4: always has to pan up in order to see like, oh,
Speaker 4: what the fuck? Like? Yeah, yeah, it.
Speaker 2: Was great to show scale in this for sure.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: My number two is one that has not been mentioned
Speaker 2: at all tonight, which I'm kind of surprised by. And
Speaker 2: this is my fifth and final pick from the year
Speaker 2: of two thousand and eight. Dear God, this is let
Speaker 2: the right one.
Speaker 4: Hell yeah, a runner up for me for sure. Love
Speaker 4: this one.
Speaker 2: This is a beautifully tragic masterpiece that is, I mean
Speaker 2: so interesting in a time where we are overwrought with
Speaker 2: zombie movies constantly. And I've talked about this on the
Speaker 2: show so many times before, but it seems like we
Speaker 2: can't have a high point in vampire films and a
Speaker 2: high point in zombie movies at the same time. There's
Speaker 2: always cycles between the two. And I'm hoping that we're
Speaker 2: finally breaking through into vampire movies again with stuff like
Speaker 2: Abigail and some cooming ones are supposed to be amazing,
Speaker 2: and zombies are kind of taking a back seat. Finally
Speaker 2: we're out of the Walking Dead era. Let the Right
Speaker 2: One in is probably the highest point in vampire movies
Speaker 2: in this recent zombie wave that we got. And this
Speaker 2: movie is so just innocently romantic for two kids, kind
Speaker 2: of kids discovering who they are and trying to discover
Speaker 2: who they will be. And some of the scenes like
Speaker 2: the swimming pool scene obviously is a classic for a reason,
Speaker 2: and the hospital scene and under the bridge scene, like
Speaker 2: there's so many things about this movie that make you
Speaker 2: just look back on it and think more and more
Speaker 2: about what you just got done watching. And yes, there's
Speaker 2: an awful remake that I don't want to spend much
Speaker 2: time in. But this movie specifically is something that everybody
Speaker 2: should see and with the very open mind, because I
Speaker 2: know a lot of people don't love foreign movies, but
Speaker 2: this is if you're gonna watch one that's new from
Speaker 2: not the U West, this is probably a really great
Speaker 2: place to start.
Speaker 3: I like the remake more. What I don't thought that
Speaker 3: was I thought that was like, yeah, I thought a
Speaker 3: lot of people like pretty much dig the remake.
Speaker 4: The remake. I just think the original is.
Speaker 3: I liked the original, but the remake, I don't know that.
Speaker 3: I just recently a few years ago double build them,
Speaker 3: and I mean, yeah, I just I mean, obviously my
Speaker 3: Matt Reeves Cloverfield bias is showing.
Speaker 4: But oh good lord, Jesus Christ and Kimberly Peers also
Speaker 4: can be a good filmmaker, so that's.
Speaker 2: A lot of time. Yeah, Reaves directed the remake. Well,
Speaker 2: I didn't mean to say it was awful. It's just
Speaker 2: it's it can't hold a candle. The original, I don't
Speaker 2: think I may have seen.
Speaker 3: I don't know which one I saw for I saw
Speaker 3: Let Me In when it came out. I saw Let
Speaker 3: the Right Went It sometime around there. I don't know
Speaker 3: if it was before or after. But the thing that
Speaker 3: I love about both of the movies is just how
Speaker 3: it showcases wintertime. That I really love the loneliness of wintertime,
Speaker 3: Like the scenes where it's them on the playground just
Speaker 3: by themselves and you feel like there's nobody else, but
Speaker 3: you also feel like everybody is there but they're all asleep.
Speaker 3: I really love that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I went to I was in the same acting
Speaker 4: class as one of the kids who played the main
Speaker 4: bully in the remake. His name is Brettel Juana. It's
Speaker 4: just I remember watching the remake being like, no, because
Speaker 4: he occasionally popped up in movies in the two thousand.
Speaker 4: I think he still does. But he was in that
Speaker 4: It's unfortunately terrible movie. But The Balls of Fury. He
Speaker 4: played the young protagonist in that movie. And then so
Speaker 4: it was like I remember seeing that movie in theaters
Speaker 4: and was being like that, and then.
Speaker 3: Young Balls of Fury let me in.
Speaker 4: I was just like, oh my god, there he is again.
Speaker 2: Your Fury is a hell of a title.
Speaker 3: Little Balls of Fury, that's him. Some people call him
Speaker 3: little little mister Woodcock.
Speaker 4: That's right, dear lord. I do agree with you, Ryan,
Speaker 4: I love I mean, anyone who's ever felt like an outsider.
Speaker 4: And then you know, there's also a you're.
Speaker 3: A liar sitt.
Speaker 4: There is something that is the way it balances the
Speaker 4: innocence of young love with the cruelty the children are
Speaker 4: capable of in the adult world surrounding them is yeah,
Speaker 4: and yeah. The swimming pool scene is just my god, yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I just want to in the remake that one
Speaker 2: was the swimming pool scene was decent there too. Anyways,
Speaker 2: go ahead, Charlie.
Speaker 4: We've mentioned the filmmaker and I mentioned the release. It's
Speaker 4: a you know, a movie. I'm sure people will be
Speaker 4: like ew when I bring it up. But my number
Speaker 4: two is Trouble every Day.
Speaker 3: I thought i'd be your number one.
Speaker 4: Okay, well, my number one might be controversial and I
Speaker 4: might piss people off because I'm sure some people will
Speaker 4: be like, that's not horror. But anyway, I'm going to
Speaker 4: defend myself in a moment. But Trouble every Day a
Speaker 4: movie that had such a visceral impact on me the
Speaker 4: first time I watched it where I was like it
Speaker 4: was my first Clayer to Knee and at a certain
Speaker 4: point I was like, what even is this? Because it
Speaker 4: just upset me so much where I wasn't ready for
Speaker 4: the ways in which it tackles the interlocking, you know,
Speaker 4: qualities between sex and violence. The way that Clatter to
Speaker 4: Knee is obsessed with the human body, in framing it
Speaker 4: and eroticizing it and then also analyzing how primal and
Speaker 4: animalistic we are as a species, and how I think
Speaker 4: there's an umber of ways you could read this movie
Speaker 4: you could read it as you know, a breakup, that
Speaker 4: the ways that it impacts us, you could read it
Speaker 4: even like you know some of her more explicit movies
Speaker 4: that have to do with colonialism. You could read it
Speaker 4: in that way, and that how people got sick sick
Speaker 4: in this movie and the origins of that you could
Speaker 4: read into how you know it's infected France, There's It's
Speaker 4: It's a It's a simultaneously very cerebral and dense movie
Speaker 4: and also a very confounding one, and I don't think
Speaker 4: people were ready for it during the time of its release.
Speaker 4: I also find it just to be very a very brutal,
Speaker 4: heartbreaking movie about just how love makes us like makes
Speaker 4: us kind of crazy, and uh, sex is kind of
Speaker 4: a scary, animalistic thing that intertwines with how we are
Speaker 4: essentially just animals in a weird way. It's a hard
Speaker 4: movie to describe in just such a short amount of time,
Speaker 4: But this movie shook, It shakes me up, So I
Speaker 4: guess yeah. For my two new French extremity films, both
Speaker 4: women directed films very much about bodies as prisons and
Speaker 4: also bodies escape and our attempts to escape from that.
Speaker 4: In Anger at feeling trapped, and also, yeah, I mean,
Speaker 4: there's so many ways you could read this movie.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 4: It's also a movie that, no matter how many times
Speaker 4: I've seen it, there's one scene at the end with
Speaker 4: Vincent Gallo and a maid that is one of the
Speaker 4: most difficult things I've ever sat through, and it never
Speaker 4: gets any easier. But I find this movie there's a
Speaker 4: deep sadness in how the movie analyzes how human beings
Speaker 4: relate to one another one another or don't, and all
Speaker 4: the messiness and gore and this area that comes along
Speaker 4: with that sometimes.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I feel like Clardony as a whole is
Speaker 2: like criminally overlooked. There's so many people that will respond
Speaker 2: and say that this has been my watch list forever
Speaker 2: and just never get to it. Take an opportunity watch
Speaker 2: one of them in the next couple of weeks. Clear
Speaker 2: Toenny is incredible.
Speaker 3: A lot of our stuff, just in the most recent
Speaker 3: years is finally being put on disc and easier to watch,
Speaker 3: Like pretty much all of her eighties stuff is just
Speaker 3: like you have to pirate it, which sucks because my
Speaker 3: favorite one of hers and kind of the only one
Speaker 3: that I like so far. As us go home and
Speaker 3: you can't watch that anywhere.
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 4: It's such a bummer. Yeah, that's a great movie.
Speaker 3: My number one. It's the greatest found footage movie not
Speaker 3: called The Blair Witch Project.
Speaker 2: It is wreck.
Speaker 4: Oh I shouldn't be too surprised.
Speaker 3: I fucking love this movie. How long is this movie?
Speaker 3: Like four minutes long? It feels like seventy eight minutes
Speaker 3: and it does not waste a fucking moment. It is
Speaker 3: all killer and no filler. It fucking rips my favorite
Speaker 3: zombie movie without a fucking doubt. I need to rewatch
Speaker 3: the sequel. I haven't seen the sequel. There's plenty of sequels,
Speaker 3: but the first sequel. I remember liking it back in
Speaker 3: the day and my friend was just like, so, you're
Speaker 3: telling me they can see hidden rooms with night vision.
Speaker 3: I was like, that sounds kind of goofy. Yeah, maybe
Speaker 3: I need to rewatch that. But yeah, there's nothing deep
Speaker 3: about it. It just kicks ass and it has maybe
Speaker 3: the most effective jump scar I've ever seen, and it's
Speaker 3: one that is so choreographed. It takes like thirty seven
Speaker 3: You know what's going to happen, but the problem is
Speaker 3: you don't know when it's gonna happen, and it's that
Speaker 3: goddamn attic kid, And every single time I've not seen
Speaker 3: the Room, make please stop asking.
Speaker 4: I did see the remake first, and I really wish
Speaker 4: I didn't. One of my friends worked at a regal
Speaker 4: and we just saw everything for free, like it didn't
Speaker 4: matter how good or bad it was. I need to
Speaker 4: see this movie again because I haven't seen it in
Speaker 4: like ten years, but I do remember liking it a lot.
Speaker 4: And yeah, Kevin's been singing the praises of this one
Speaker 4: for as long as we've been friends, and I'm realizing
Speaker 4: my memory of it is not nearly as vivid as
Speaker 4: I thought it was.
Speaker 2: So Yeah, this was literally number eleven on my list.
Speaker 2: It is my number one honorable. This movie is amazing.
Speaker 2: I feel like Kevin and I have a lot of
Speaker 2: the same taste here this movie. The fact that it's
Speaker 2: essentially all one very interesting location, uh just spread out
Speaker 2: over a couple floors is a masterclass in low budget filmmaking.
Speaker 2: The acting on this is astonishing, especially from our lead protagonist.
Speaker 2: But the sequels there are three sequels, one and a
Speaker 2: half of them are not bad. I think it's very
Speaker 2: odd that one of them is like half found footage
Speaker 2: half not.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've seen that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, they're all worth watching. And even the remake. I
Speaker 2: don't mind Quarantine. I think it's decent. It's just when
Speaker 2: you're literally trying to remake a literally perfect film, it's
Speaker 2: never gonna hold up to what reclose.
Speaker 3: But they that director, I don't know if it was
Speaker 3: both of them. That director did Keepsie tapes, which is
Speaker 3: all my honorable mentions. If that, If that's not, I
Speaker 3: almost took out American Psycho, pushed my stuff up and
Speaker 3: put Keep's Tapes on number ten. But I was like,
Speaker 3: I think nine found footage movies out of ten is plenty.
Speaker 3: So I can't believe Solon Hill didn't make. I I
Speaker 3: like Silent Hill. The problem is there's a certain cutoff
Speaker 3: with that movie that as soon as they entered the church,
Speaker 3: movie's dumb as shit. But everything before that is like
Speaker 3: the best video game adaptation ever.
Speaker 4: It's so funny because I feel like that's I like
Speaker 4: that movie a lot. I feel like that's that it's
Speaker 4: not really about anything, which is not a criticism by
Speaker 4: any means, because I think that just in terms of
Speaker 4: the atmosphere and visual effects and the way it captures.
Speaker 4: This Nightmare Town is just so stunning. I think it's
Speaker 4: interesting that, yeah, once it becomes about something, that's where
Speaker 4: the plot gets a little muddled, but at the and
Speaker 4: I don't even care. Over time, I've just learned to
Speaker 4: like embrace it. And but I do think also the
Speaker 4: last the climax of that movie is just un fucking real,
Speaker 4: Like it just becomes a Clike Barker movie, like.
Speaker 3: Also, you got Sean be in there, you don't kill them,
Speaker 3: get them at it, get this out of here crime
Speaker 3: at this point.
Speaker 4: Another movie I snuck into I will also say that
Speaker 4: was a movie where it was on two screens, and
Speaker 4: when a parent bought our ticket, we went to the
Speaker 4: one end of the theater where it was showing, and
Speaker 4: they went, can we see your IDs? Just looking at
Speaker 4: fourteen year old us. We were like, oh, we left
Speaker 4: our wallet, we'll be right back. And then we went
Speaker 4: up to the box office and we're like, can we
Speaker 4: switch to the seven thirty show instead of the seven
Speaker 4: PM show? And they took a big fat black marker
Speaker 4: crossed out seven PM wrote seven thirty over Silent Hill
Speaker 4: to the point that it was illegible, and we went
Speaker 4: to the other side of the theater and they were
Speaker 4: like and we were just like, oh, we were running late,
Speaker 4: and they said we could switch oh yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: go on ahead, and we were like, oh the fuck
Speaker 4: did that work?
Speaker 3: Love asking like clearly probably two kids that very clearly
Speaker 3: looked fourteen, be like you got your I d's on
Speaker 3: you be like, yeah, it lifted in my trunk of
Speaker 3: my car that I drive.
Speaker 4: And none of them got the walkie talking like hey stop.
Speaker 4: Those kids like they were just like now that it's
Speaker 4: like the movie theater usher in the simpsence, like that'll
Speaker 4: show them like.
Speaker 2: Uh oh yeah. Number one probably no surprise to many
Speaker 2: people that know me. This is one that my wife
Speaker 2: and I adore together. We saw literally almost every single
Speaker 2: one in the theater on opening night together two thousand
Speaker 2: and four saw. I think this is literally like one
Speaker 2: of the best thrillers from the decade, hands down. The
Speaker 2: fact that the very end of this is still like
Speaker 2: one of the best reveals of the last twenty five
Speaker 2: years is amazing. If you went to see this in
Speaker 2: the first two weeks of it being out, nobody knew
Speaker 2: that that was gonna happen. It took everybody by surprise
Speaker 2: and this first one. I think if you go back
Speaker 2: and watch Saw in twenty twenty four, knowing what the
Speaker 2: franchise turned into, you watch the first one to go,
Speaker 2: what is this tame movie? Like, there's hardly anything in
Speaker 2: this it is not.
Speaker 3: It's not a torture porn movie. The second one is
Speaker 3: when it becomes yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this movie is amazing. It's a detective story. It's
Speaker 2: filled with puzzles for somebody that is, you know, autistically
Speaker 2: doing sudoku every chance that you possibly can. I love
Speaker 2: this movie. And then I love all the torture porn
Speaker 2: ones for different reasons. I've loved almost all of them.
Speaker 2: There's one and a half bad ones from the franchise.
Speaker 2: But I mean, this first movie is tight. It's well,
Speaker 2: it flows perfectly, it's got really great acting. It's casted
Speaker 2: in such a unique way, like you never expected Carryell
Speaker 2: was to be attached to a fucking batsub or toilet
Speaker 2: or whatever he's attached to in this one. And when
Speaker 2: that pops up in two thousand and four and you're like,
Speaker 2: what is this and he puts on that performance, you're
Speaker 2: kind of taken aback by it. And the and then
Speaker 2: the rest come and it ruins the way a lot
Speaker 2: of people feel about these because so many people can't
Speaker 2: deal with the gore. It's it's not this movie. If
Speaker 2: you are one of those people, go back and watch
Speaker 2: Saw one more time. Saw is not a torture porn movie.
Speaker 2: These Saw sequels are.
Speaker 3: It's it's as bloody as a long order episode.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: So uh yeah. I definitely watched this on a camerap
Speaker 3: on LimeWire when it came out and didn't have the
Speaker 3: ending spoiled. And I remember I had a bed time
Speaker 3: at the time because I was like fucking twelve even
Speaker 3: if even that, And I remember like it started to
Speaker 3: happen like the last like fifteen ten minutes, and I
Speaker 3: remember my dad was like, you need to go to back.
Speaker 3: I was like, you don't understand that I need to
Speaker 3: stay up. Yeah I can. I can never replicate that.
Speaker 3: Nothing can replicate that feeling. Saw two is also a
Speaker 3: fun time. Sawtwo is the most new metal of the
Speaker 3: whole series Saws amazing.
Speaker 4: Doesn't it Saw too have a mud Vain song and
Speaker 4: it's end credits.
Speaker 3: I don't remember, but it probably has like nine mudvan songs.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I also remember I stayed I slept over a
Speaker 4: friend's house whose older brother had a copy of it,
Speaker 4: and I don't even remember if he was allowed to
Speaker 4: watch it, but it was one of those we'll go
Speaker 4: bowling and then we'll come back and then our parents
Speaker 4: will go to bed, and then we'll stay up and
Speaker 4: watch sow it. And it was like two in the morning,
Speaker 4: and then we were like, fuck, we can't go to
Speaker 4: sleep after this.
Speaker 5: Jesus like amazing, Yeah, Charles, what do we got.
Speaker 4: I feel like people are gonna be mad at me
Speaker 4: about this because the people are gonna be like, that's
Speaker 4: not horror.
Speaker 2: But I want to transformers too.
Speaker 4: And it's funny because I also I have the four
Speaker 4: K of this and it's a very big movie, and
Speaker 4: of course that's the one I forgot to bring down.
Speaker 4: My Number one is Mullholland Drive.
Speaker 2: No, No, that's definitely a horror movie.
Speaker 4: Kevin is like, I okay it, I think. I mean,
Speaker 4: it was my first David Lynch movie. It was anything
Speaker 4: unlike anything I'd ever seen before. It's arguably my favorite
Speaker 4: movie still. The reason I consider this a you know,
Speaker 4: I think so many David Lynch films. I mean, i'd say,
Speaker 4: sure you could count Inland Empire is more horror. I
Speaker 4: came out the same decade. I'm not gonna argue with that.
Speaker 4: Even Lost Highway maybe more horror. But I feel like
Speaker 4: this movie is about it's it's about it. The first
Speaker 4: half is what it feels like to go pursue your
Speaker 4: dreams and fall in love with what you want to
Speaker 4: do in life, and also discover your yourself in terms
Speaker 4: of your sexuality and find someone you deeply connect to.
Speaker 4: And then the second half is just even though that
Speaker 4: is arguably the reality of the movie, and I do
Speaker 4: believe that is it's just a nightmare, and it has
Speaker 4: so many sequences that are some of the scariest things
Speaker 4: I've ever seen. The Winkie scene. I literally saw that
Speaker 4: movie at a REP screening. I've been so many times
Speaker 4: to see this movie in a theater. There was one
Speaker 4: time I went with a friend and we've watched like
Speaker 4: messed up horror stuff, and I went with two you know,
Speaker 4: he was one of two friends I went with. The
Speaker 4: other friend had not seen this movie, and he asked,
Speaker 4: can we get an aile see And I was like,
Speaker 4: why do you need an aisle seat? And He's like,
Speaker 4: I can't watch the winky scene. I'm like, we've watched
Speaker 4: like the most fucked up shit together. What are you
Speaker 4: talking about? He's like, I'm telling you, it's the one
Speaker 4: thing I can't do. And no matter how many times
Speaker 4: I've seen the winky scene, I know the jump is coming.
Speaker 4: The jump doesn't get me anymore. But that whole build up,
Speaker 4: the ways in which it analyzes heartbreak and the ways
Speaker 4: that that can consume you, and how it reminds me
Speaker 4: of you know, just I think that the reason it
Speaker 4: sticks with me as a horror is, you know, some
Speaker 4: of the stuff the Winkie scene, Club Cilencio, and that
Speaker 4: fear of the unknown, the fear of losing someone you love,
Speaker 4: the way that you will react when you know someone
Speaker 4: you love doesn't love you doesn't reciprocate that, the loss
Speaker 4: of self, the complete dream logic of it. I know
Speaker 4: that it's trending a line here, and it's advertised more
Speaker 4: as a film noir throwbacks thriller type of thing, but like,
Speaker 4: I still think that it has some of the most
Speaker 4: chilling moments in any movie I've ever seen period, even
Speaker 4: if it isn't a full on genre pick, and it's
Speaker 4: just it's one of my favorite movies. So I just
Speaker 4: had to go with my heart and say, I know
Speaker 4: this is kind of a half pick here, some people
Speaker 4: wouldn't consider it, but it's it's like my favorite movie.
Speaker 4: So just gotta just gotta be honest, just gotta say,
Speaker 4: you know, I think it counts. So you were talking
Speaker 4: about Naomi Watts, and I mean, I think, how did
Speaker 4: she not win every award under the sun for one
Speaker 4: of the best performances ever in which her character goes
Speaker 4: through every emotion possible and every tonal shift possible and
Speaker 4: somehow makes.
Speaker 2: It work well? And shut out to her anyways, because
Speaker 2: I think she's the only one that was in three
Speaker 2: of the films we talked about.
Speaker 4: Tonight, Yeah, Funny Games, This, The Ring, and The Ring.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Here's the thing that I just the the fake conversation
Speaker 3: I had in my head because I'm mentally well, is
Speaker 3: where I'm just like, oh, mall and draw is not
Speaker 3: a horror movie. And then somebody goes, then what is it?
Speaker 3: Then I go, I don't know, so, yeah, that's a
Speaker 3: horror movie.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's a it's a hybrid. I mean,
Speaker 4: like most Lynch films, it's a hybrid. I mean I
Speaker 4: wouldn't say, you know, like would if anyone called, I know,
Speaker 4: Blue Velvet does take place in reality more but if
Speaker 4: someone said that's a horror movie, I'd be like, I'm
Speaker 4: not going to argue with you, like you're gonna tell
Speaker 4: me that, Like now you're like, okay, well now we
Speaker 4: have to deal with no.
Speaker 2: I mean this literally is on the top of many, many,
Speaker 2: many like top one hundred horror moments lists. This is
Speaker 2: literally always up there. Uh wow, Tyler says, my number
Speaker 2: one and number two were not mentioned. What were they?
Speaker 2: Let us know?
Speaker 3: Yeah, Tyler, Tyler a little black book.
Speaker 2: Quiet. Yeah. I I feel like this fits fairly squarely
Speaker 2: in the horror line. I mean, obviously you can call
Speaker 2: it a thriller, I guess, But I mean, where where
Speaker 2: do we draw that line? This is a ridiculous conversation.
Speaker 4: The scene where they're investigating where Diane's Sawyer lives and
Speaker 4: then that discovery is that not horror is the winky
Speaker 4: Horror is Club Celencio not? I mean that plays a
Speaker 4: you know, Lynch likes to toy with you and manipulate
Speaker 4: you in genre elements and then also stuff you've never
Speaker 4: seen before and doesn't like to be defined or clearly
Speaker 4: labeled into a box. I think a lot of the time.
Speaker 2: So well, like Sam says, it's about a nightmare, I
Speaker 2: mean it is.
Speaker 3: His films are so singular that if you give me
Speaker 3: out of my film school pretension, but they're so singular
Speaker 3: that you can't really just be like, oh, it's a
Speaker 3: horror movie. Then it's just like, well, he's doing something
Speaker 3: way out of just gendre constraints. So it's just like
Speaker 3: only one of his movies you probably couldn't call a
Speaker 3: horror movie is like The Straight Story. So no, I
Speaker 3: would love to hear that argument, but.
Speaker 4: I'll never forget just the first time I saw The
Speaker 4: Straight Story and a repertory screen and just seeing the
Speaker 4: words Walt Disney Pictures presents a film by David Lynch.
Speaker 3: Wait, oh no, did they know what they bought? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Also I also think that it's the feeling that the
Speaker 4: final moments of The Holan Drive that I won't spoil,
Speaker 4: even though if I did spoil it, it wouldn't even
Speaker 4: reveal anything, but that fade to black and then that
Speaker 4: sound that lingers over the end credits just makes my
Speaker 4: blood run cold, like it breaks my heart and I
Speaker 4: feel emotionally overwhelmed. But it's kind of like if anyone
Speaker 4: seemed first or formed, where you're just kind of like,
Speaker 4: oh shit, and then cuts the black and then you're
Speaker 4: just left with this drone where it's like, I don't
Speaker 4: know how you're not like shaken by the end of that,
Speaker 4: you know.
Speaker 3: So I'll take mahon Drive good film. It's not my
Speaker 3: favorite lunch. Razor Head is, because of course it is.
Speaker 3: If you saw all of this for going on almost
Speaker 3: four hours, you know what's a razorhead. But yeah, Mahons
Speaker 3: Drives incredible.
Speaker 2: It's pretty damn good. Uh, let's go through some honorable mentions.
Speaker 2: What do you got for us?
Speaker 3: Kevin Sweet already mentioned in My Skin Orphan Kicks, Ass,
Speaker 3: Vacancy Kicks, Ass, Ginger Snaps, Text, Chance Hall Remake, visitor Q. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the Keepsie tapes, the Collingwood Story House, the Devil. I'm
Speaker 3: surprised you didn't mention this, Ryan, because you were talking
Speaker 3: about it on the the Force five pod for the
Speaker 3: Underappreciated ninety five to two thousand and five. The Hills
Speaker 3: Have Eyes Remake very much at the end.
Speaker 2: Of that literally brought it up last week. That's why
Speaker 2: I didn't. It's on my honorable mentions.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was the first movie I ever snuck into,
Speaker 4: and I remember being like, this is gonna be awesome,
Speaker 4: and then just Frends friends looking at me after I
Speaker 4: convinced them to go in, just looking at me, looking
Speaker 4: like with this gaze in their eyes. That's like.
Speaker 3: Already mentioned bug and of course identity, that's right.

Speaker 2: Identity also on my list. I adore Identity. The Hills
Speaker 2: Have Ice remake. Batter Royal didn't get a single mention
Speaker 2: from anybody.
Speaker 3: Oh shit, I have not seen it in so long.

Speaker 3: two and it's like a four disc, but I need

Speaker 2: didn't make my list. I love Inside.
Speaker 4: Inside is a wild film there that's on my Honorable

Speaker 4: was just like, I don't feel like being in school
Speaker 4: right now, so I'm gonna go home and watch this.
Speaker 4: Felt like karma.

Speaker 4: and so uh evil, But my god does it? Yeah,
Speaker 4: my God does that movie wield wield a deadly power.
Speaker 4: Oh shit, I'm sorry, how rude of me. I guess

Speaker 4: throw Gozu into Takashi Mike's.
Speaker 2: Four Way Jesus Christ Watch.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I didn't want to do a repeat of a director,
Speaker 4: but Retribution, by which I just caught up with this year,
Speaker 4: is great. The others with Nicole Kidman insane that that
Speaker 4: was a huge summer blockbuster. I miss when we just
Speaker 4: had old school supernatural haunted house movies. Silent Hill. I
Speaker 4: will give a shout out to Silent Hill, a mayor,
Speaker 4: which is by.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 4: I'm terrible with these these pronunciations of French names, so
Speaker 4: my apologies. But Helene Catat and Bruno Ferzani, who also
Speaker 4: did let the Let the Body's Tan and Strange call
Speaker 4: Everybody's Tears fun euro or Jallo homage worth checking out
Speaker 4: three extremes.

Speaker 4: And I'm just gonna give a little throat because this
Speaker 4: movie doesn't get enough love. But I am a fan
Speaker 4: of Ghosts of Mars, an underappreciated John Carpenter joint that
Speaker 4: has ice Cube screaming Come on, New Martian motherfuckers while
Speaker 4: shooting a bunch of space ghosts with you know, automatic weapons?
Speaker 4: What more do you want? What?
Speaker 2: What? You know?
