Speaker 1: So Evil Dead, So you know I'm gonna take the baton.
Speaker 1: I want to.
Speaker 6: I want to.
Speaker 1: I never get to start. I want to starry about this,
Speaker 1: so I can't tell you about the first time I
Speaker 1: saw us because I gotta wait till Evil that too.
Speaker 1: And there's like a better story there, but I had
Speaker 1: seen too before I saw one. But anyway, so we'll
Speaker 1: get to that when we get to two. But I
Speaker 1: think with this movie there's two minds of it as
Speaker 1: of just watching as a film.
Speaker 6: I love it.
Speaker 1: It's yeah, there's there's some cheesy and low budgetess too it,
Speaker 1: but like it's scary. It has a great pace to it.
Speaker 1: It just goes up and up. It just I just
Speaker 1: feel like the way that when we watch Hereditary or
Speaker 1: Midsomar or Lighthouse, I I mentionine, that's how people must
Speaker 1: have felt in eighty one, like seeing this, Like nowadays
Speaker 1: you see this stuff like, oh yeah, we've seen some
Speaker 1: crazy shit. But back then, she's like some of the
Speaker 1: things that happened, like including my name, I couldn't I
Speaker 1: saw some young age just like I couldn't believe, like
Speaker 1: what's going on in this with the film and stuff
Speaker 1: like that. So the film, it's a quick everything. I
Speaker 1: love it. I've seen it almost so many times that
Speaker 1: he felt I didn't need to watch for this retrospective.
Speaker 1: But I love the film the more. What I like
Speaker 1: about it is just like it's just the definition of
Speaker 1: like rock and roll independent filmmaking. It has a budget
Speaker 1: of three hundred and seventy five thousand dollars and I
Speaker 1: got some trivia, but it's just like after I'll read
Speaker 1: some facts, but go on the IMDb and read this.
Speaker 1: I want them to do like a fall and documentary
Speaker 1: because like what they did to get this movie going
Speaker 1: and that thing, it's just like Sam Raimi's first movie.
Speaker 1: It's Palls the Wall. They just go for it, and
Speaker 1: it's just like it's a small crew and again, like
Speaker 1: to me, it's not even a million dollar budget, and
Speaker 1: I don't think it feels like lower tiers as far
Speaker 1: as like what you could imagine what a big movie
Speaker 1: might be look like. But I think what they did
Speaker 1: with what they had is incredible. Like this is like
Speaker 1: a guy that had nothing to his name him and Bruce,
Speaker 1: Oh god, why am I forgetting him? Thank you? They're
Speaker 1: like taking out loans and stuff from banks just to
Speaker 1: get this, and like it's just such a it's someone
Speaker 1: that like wants to do the filmmaking thing. I watch,
Speaker 1: it's like, man, they really did something special and found
Speaker 1: like uh kind of lightning in a bottle. And that's
Speaker 1: why the seconde's a bit different because they had a
Speaker 1: bitterer budget and there's a whole different spin to it.
Speaker 1: But this first one, I just I'm always so impressed
Speaker 1: with it, and it's just genuinely scary. It's one of
Speaker 1: these movie that I do watch every how. It's just
Speaker 1: some of the sounds these creatures makes, and some of
Speaker 1: the visuals and how ramps up to just being oh
Speaker 1: something scary in the woods to where we get the end.
Speaker 1: It's just some awful stuff. So I absolutely love this movie.
Speaker 1: But del Mass, have you had any experience with Evil
Speaker 1: Dead and if not, what did you think of this
Speaker 1: go around for yourself?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Really, no experience whatsoever. I feel like I only heard
Speaker 3: about it maybe when you guys talk about the podcast
Speaker 3: here or there, or more recently in recent times with
Speaker 3: s Bubs, just knowing that he's always praising these things.
Speaker 3: But I remember, like even when we did the Spider
Speaker 3: Mind No Way Home review and Bruce Campbell has like
Speaker 3: that character in there, Like on the review, I had
Speaker 3: to ask you guys, like, I don't know who this
Speaker 3: guy is. I don't know if I've ever seen in
Speaker 3: a movie before, had no idea who he was. So
Speaker 3: I really didn't like I guess I never thought about
Speaker 3: what did Sam Raimi do before Spider Man.
Speaker 6: I never thought back on his career in that way.
Speaker 3: So, yeah, never seen any of these movies, and truthfully,
Speaker 3: I don't really know anything about them. I know, Bruce
Speaker 3: cam there, Yeah, I assume there's some sort of undead
Speaker 3: that is it. Like I feel like these ones have
Speaker 3: somehow remained maybe cult movies in a way that they
Speaker 3: are not a point where like everyone's spoiling things. There's
Speaker 3: like there's some iconic scene that people are always referencing.
Speaker 3: I feel like it's lived in obscurity, which kind of
Speaker 3: I guess fits for what it is. And you know, Travis,
Speaker 3: you're talking about so much about like how the rock
Speaker 3: and roll nature of this and how it is so
Speaker 3: hard to make it, and how this is Sam Raimi's
Speaker 3: first movie. To me, you know, I look at it
Speaker 3: from outside of all that. This felt absolutely like this
Speaker 3: is someone's first time making a movie. I did not
Speaker 3: like this pretty much at all. There was honestly very
Speaker 3: little in here that I found any value in This
Speaker 3: was this movie was absolutely not for me. And you know,
Speaker 3: there's an element to it where it's like, Okay, you
Speaker 3: can try and remove yourself from your situation and think back.
Speaker 3: This came out so long ago, forty years ago, and
Speaker 3: maybe I can give it some concessions for doing that,
Speaker 3: But at the same time, that's not gonna like really
Speaker 3: drastically improve my enjoyment of it. And it sounds like
Speaker 3: the story of the making this is interesting, so that's cool.
Speaker 3: I'd like to look into that. But yeah, in terms
Speaker 3: of like, I did not find this scary pretty much
Speaker 3: at all. There's a couple effects elements that I thought
Speaker 3: looked cool, but for the most part didn't really work
Speaker 3: for me. I don't need a woman getting raped by
Speaker 3: a tree and my movie is like that to me, Like,
Speaker 3: he just does not. It's just so cringe and not
Speaker 3: in like a good cringe.
Speaker 6: It's just like this is stupid. So yeah, there's there's
Speaker 6: very little liked but this.
Speaker 3: I think the characters, like Bruce Campbell's character's fine. I
Speaker 3: think he just has like anl like it's weird, he's
Speaker 3: never I don't know, maybe he's had like a really
Speaker 3: powerful career or something, but he just has like movie
Speaker 3: star energy to him in this, Like I got that vibe,
Speaker 3: even though like I don't know anything else about him,
Speaker 3: but everyone else is just like whatever. So I'm sorry,
Speaker 3: s pubbs. I'm sorry to everyone who loves this, but
Speaker 3: I kind of wait to hear why you guy, why why?
Speaker 3: At least Travis and presume the other guy you either
Speaker 3: two liked this thing. But yeah, it did very little
Speaker 3: for me.
Speaker 1: You know alone. Though there's many people that aren't a
Speaker 1: fan of these movies. Especially as we go on, the
Speaker 1: tongue in cheek nature gets a lot more heavy and
Speaker 1: stuff like that. It starts to lean into the more
Speaker 1: comedic side, and uh yeah, it's it's, it's it. That's
Speaker 1: I think that's probably the reason why they are more
Speaker 1: of the cult followings, because they're not a they're not
Speaker 1: a wildly loved ones. But uh, Kirkham pats Er, had
Speaker 1: you ever seen any Evil Dead? And if so, where
Speaker 1: are you on this?
Speaker 7: I absolutely have I Evil Dead has a big, uh
Speaker 7: big standing in the pats Are household, My my, my
Speaker 7: whole family we watched this again. I was probably well
Speaker 7: too young to watch it, but for some reason, my
Speaker 7: dad just thought I was ready And like we we
Speaker 7: reference so many seats, like just lines and sequence from
Speaker 7: these movies, like in My Household, especially like at my
Speaker 7: family's house or at my family's house. At my parents' house,
Speaker 7: they have like a trapdoor situation, which is just like
Speaker 7: the evil dead door where they have like it's not
Speaker 7: an actual chain on theirs, but like every time we
Speaker 7: go down there, I'm just picturing some like possessed person
Speaker 7: to grab me or whatnot. And like we just always
Speaker 7: reference it as like the evil dead door and then
Speaker 7: just like.
Speaker 2: Swallow your soul, Swallow your soul. That wasn't in this movie.
Speaker 7: It's in a later one, but like I yeah, we
Speaker 7: love this movie so much, and it's I think it
Speaker 7: is very much that though where like from Dylan's point
Speaker 7: of view, like if I didn't have any of those
Speaker 7: like memories and just watched it like now, I probably
Speaker 7: wouldn't have like it wouldn't have hit hard like at all,
Speaker 7: and I probably would have been more on his side
Speaker 7: of this. But yeah, just like I remember being a
Speaker 7: little kid and like seeing the first time, like some
Speaker 7: of these characters just get possessed and like fuck just
Speaker 7: the gore involved like in it. And like I knew
Speaker 7: it was his first movie, Sam Raimi. I knew it
Speaker 7: was a lower budget. I didn't realize it was three
Speaker 7: hundred and seventy five thousand dollars. Like to me, that's
Speaker 7: crazy with how much like just blood and gore and
Speaker 7: guts and stuff that they were like showing in these scenes.
Speaker 7: And yeah, it's it's dated, but I think again it's
Speaker 7: probably because I'm bringing in my own like loving and
Speaker 7: joyment for it. But like I just see these scenes
Speaker 7: and appreciate it so much more for the fact that
Speaker 7: it is like a lower budget and how they were
Speaker 7: able to execute like you call it like like a
Speaker 7: low budget like camera shot. But I just think it's
Speaker 7: like so clever the way that they just have it
Speaker 7: like on Bruce Campill's face in like certain moments, whether
Speaker 7: he's reacting to a scene or when he first goes
Speaker 7: down in the basement, and it just does like the
Speaker 7: little panoramic shot around.
Speaker 2: Like very slowly.
Speaker 7: Like I remember being a little kid in that scene
Speaker 7: and just waiting for something to like jump out, Like
Speaker 7: I was just so on the edge of my seat,
Speaker 7: And like this movie very much scared the shit out
Speaker 7: of me as a young kid, and just like the
Speaker 7: whole lore with like I think they call it The
Speaker 7: Book and the Dead. I've heard it called like the Necronomicon,
Speaker 7: just like like the the book that's made out of
Speaker 7: like human skin and there's just like a face on it.
Speaker 7: Like that's just such a creepy concept, and then when
Speaker 7: you read it, like just the spirits come out to
Speaker 7: get you. So yeah, I've seen this movie I like
Speaker 7: probably like five times in my entire life, but like
Speaker 7: it's been a while since I have seen it. Uh
Speaker 7: So there was a lot of moments that I just
Speaker 7: I kind of forgot the way that they went. Like
Speaker 7: I knew like the main like I guess you'd call
Speaker 7: it the landmark scenes like throughout the film, but the
Speaker 7: way that we got there was kind of it was
Speaker 7: kind of out of my memory. So it was very
Speaker 7: fun to watch this one again. And yeah, I think
Speaker 7: I'm just always gonna have like a special place in
Speaker 7: my heart for this movie because, like I said, like
Speaker 7: my family and I especially like me and my dad,
Speaker 7: like we just always reference certain scenes from not just
Speaker 7: this movie, but like throughout the Evil Dead series, especially,
Speaker 7: Like I'm excited to get to those other ones again
Speaker 7: because I feel like I've seen this one the most
Speaker 7: and the most recent other than the latest remake. I
Speaker 7: saw that around the time when that one came out.
Speaker 7: But so yeah, I think it's gonna be a fun
Speaker 7: retro for sure, especially like Traves you're alluding to, just
Speaker 7: how much more comedic it kind of gets. I remember
Speaker 7: that shift as a wee young lad, so I'm excited
Speaker 7: to go through it again. And yeah, I'm excited to
Speaker 7: just dive into this one, mister Field.
Speaker 5: So this would be my first time actually watching this one.
Speaker 5: I've watched Evil Dead two, Armory Darkness, the new remake
Speaker 5: one that I watched Ash for Civil Dead a few times.
Speaker 1: I love all those, watched the show. I'm surprised and
Speaker 1: still not the first one.
Speaker 5: I love the show Holy Shits Dead is fantastic, But
Speaker 5: this one, I I don't think I ever got around
Speaker 5: to it because it just kind of confused me because
Speaker 5: the second one, I see people talking like it's a reboot, sequel, remake, whatever,
Speaker 5: and so I just kind of thought, like, oh, I
Speaker 5: just never went back to go and watch this one,
Speaker 5: I guess, and like.
Speaker 4: Like the second the second one is the.
Speaker 5: One I've always I've watched a lot of and that one,
Speaker 5: like we'll talk more about that when we get to
Speaker 5: that retro. But going into this one, I thought It
Speaker 5: was interesting because I've seen that remake and the remake,
Speaker 5: and this one had like it's cool where I can
Speaker 5: see like, Okay, they've connected things, and when I'm watching
Speaker 5: this one, I think, okay, like I can kind of
Speaker 5: predict like where we're going to kind of go like
Speaker 5: certain story paths here, and I thought like, okay, they're
Speaker 5: doing this, this, this, and there are other things. I thought, well,
Speaker 5: they're definitely not going to do this because like I
Speaker 5: didn't see this represented any of the other evil that content,
Speaker 5: So I imagine this is something that they did new
Speaker 5: that was in the remake, but then no, they did
Speaker 5: it in this original ones.
Speaker 4: Okay, that's cool.
Speaker 5: So the remake pulled from this and all that kind
Speaker 5: of stuff like the the tree scene, which again I
Speaker 5: don't really need.
Speaker 1: That in my horror movies, the full shock core like
Speaker 1: that's what it is.
Speaker 4: Just shock, all right.
Speaker 5: Yeah, But I think that the universe and the backstory
Speaker 5: between the Necronomicon and the Dead Heights and everything that
Speaker 5: they kind of create, I think it's very interesting. I
Speaker 5: think if the way I see, like if you get
Speaker 5: maimed by one of these things, you're fucked, and the
Speaker 5: just the the concept of using the camera as.
Speaker 4: Whatever this entity is.
Speaker 5: It's like cruising through is such a it leaves it
Speaker 5: up to your imagination what this thing could could be.
Speaker 5: And I just I really really like that, and it's
Speaker 5: something that I've never seen in a movie before. I
Speaker 5: think this is definitely like kind of like a camera
Speaker 5: work that's kind of put its stamp down of like certification,
Speaker 5: like yeah, we've we've done this first, and like this
Speaker 5: is our deal, like you said, Kirklum, doing close up
Speaker 5: shots of like Campbell's expressions and stuff like that.
Speaker 4: There's a lot of different angles that they they work
Speaker 4: well with, and well, the they didn't need to do.
Speaker 5: I don't know, I can't know if there was really
Speaker 5: any kind of CGI stuff like that, Like there was
Speaker 5: a lot of practical effects. The second one, Yeah, the
Speaker 5: second one has like like amount of that, but but
Speaker 5: like this one, Yeah, the use of practicality, I really
Speaker 5: I appreciated it.
Speaker 1: So I don't think CGI like technically existed back then.
Speaker 5: It's just like, yeah, it's the special effects, like I mean,
Speaker 5: like the Evil Dead two level special effects, because I
Speaker 5: don't think I think this had maybe a tiny fraction
Speaker 5: of something in it.
Speaker 1: But well, like Dylan referred, I think you're talking about
Speaker 1: like when things start to melt and stuff and the
Speaker 1: books and everything, like they all start to raw and
Speaker 1: stuff or everything of that scene.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, the hands came out of their bodies and stuff.
Speaker 1: Yeah, which stands out because it's like the whole movie
Speaker 1: has been very gritty, dirty, realistic, and I like what
Speaker 1: they're going for, but it's just like it looks very
Speaker 1: I don't know, I don't know if that works the best,
Speaker 1: but I get what they're going for, Like it looks
Speaker 1: almost too fantastical for what it is. It looks almost
Speaker 1: too bright and look like that thing is probably some
Speaker 1: sort of clay or something like that where it's but
Speaker 1: I can't. Oh yeah, I get what they're trying.
Speaker 7: It's just it's you know, it reminded me of Indiana
Speaker 7: Jones and the Lost Arc right when they're like melting
Speaker 7: and like it's just everything's fallen off. So I and like,
Speaker 7: because it's an eighty one movie, like I just kind
Speaker 7: of look at it and like, man, like good on
Speaker 7: them for like just they could do like yeah exactly,
Speaker 7: like like going through all that effort of doing the
Speaker 7: stop motion, because that's very much what it looked like
Speaker 7: and that would have been a long time to do
Speaker 7: those scenes.
Speaker 2: I know Dylan's had some experience with the stop motion.
Speaker 6: It can it can be pretty, uh pretty stressful in
Speaker 6: my big career.
Speaker 2: Your YouTube chat still live, go support subscribe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's those super chat you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Taylor you mentioned you you reminded me too with
Speaker 2: the like the spirit cam.
Speaker 7: I guess of like following with like the car in
Speaker 7: the beginning and at the end, like going to Bruce Campbell.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 7: I can't remember if it was like Halo, Call of
Speaker 7: Duty or CSGO or something, but one of those games
Speaker 7: had like a free cam when you were dead and
Speaker 7: you can just move it around like that, and I
Speaker 7: just remember always I just like felt like I was
Speaker 7: like that Spirit from Evil Dead, just like gunning through
Speaker 7: like you're just like getting closer and closer to a character.
Speaker 2: Just little games I would have with myself.
Speaker 1: CSCO definitely did that because I remember being my friend's basement.
Speaker 1: That's just what you're doing, you're dead and stuff like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's the stuff where I just look at it go
Speaker 1: like how did they pull some of this stuff off?
Speaker 1: Because like some of it's just them with a camera
Speaker 1: run around, but it's like it doesn't ever to me
Speaker 1: feel like that does feel like it's a floating thing.
Speaker 1: Like there is one funny story where Bruce Campbell, like
Speaker 1: the one over water, they had like Sam raimy on
Speaker 1: some sort of like sheet of wood or something. So
Speaker 1: he had like push Sam in the water while he
Speaker 1: was doing the shop, but he wasn't touching the water.
Speaker 1: There's like all these tricks they use, and that's what
Speaker 1: I love about it. But uh, yeah, that that I love.
Speaker 1: It's just this olmonius just always and right when you
Speaker 1: think it's over, it's always back and it could get
Speaker 1: you at a moment and you don't know because you think,
Speaker 1: can you break through glass in doors? In the beginning
Speaker 1: the movie it can't, but then at the end it's
Speaker 1: just tearing through those doors. And even then like I'm
Speaker 1: looking at the doors, Okay, how do they pull us off?
Speaker 1: How do they do this? Like it's just they're very
Speaker 1: lucky they found this location and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: So this is this is something I do when I
Speaker 5: watch Goosebumps, specifically the slappy episodes. When I watch Evil
Speaker 5: Dead as well, and they're reading off the verse, I'll
Speaker 5: actually mute my TV just to mute a couple of lines.
Speaker 2: It scares me. I kid you not, It just scares
Speaker 2: me the like fucking daylights out.
Speaker 4: And the same with Slappy too goosebumps.
Speaker 5: I gotta mute that shit because I don't want fucking
Speaker 5: something coming alive or anything.
Speaker 1: You ever been twilled? Wis puppet just sitting? I don't know.
Speaker 2: You just don't.
Speaker 1: You don't read the line. But I think a good
Speaker 1: place to start is I kind of went Dylan said.
Speaker 1: I think for the reason you still see them and
Speaker 1: stuff in Bruce Campbell, I think, And it's funny because
Speaker 1: you got to co producer cred on this, like and
Speaker 1: he put a lot of his own money in this
Speaker 1: in the spine of a Star, and I think you
Speaker 1: can depth like, I wonder what this movie is like
Speaker 1: without him, you know. And this is coming from someone
Speaker 1: that likes it, but it is like he's such a
Speaker 1: big anchor. And I think that's why he did three
Speaker 1: of them. In the Fans and in the show, of course,
Speaker 1: and fans are such a big like proponent for him,
Speaker 1: always trying to be the especially ash Ash. The character
Speaker 1: became like a very especially after two becomes a very
Speaker 1: iconic horror character. Because two, it's very much just a
Speaker 1: even more so just a solo Bruce Campbell type of deal.
Speaker 1: And I think he does hold it down. He's still
Speaker 1: like bright eyed and bush tails. There's still some overacting,
Speaker 1: but I guess for me, this is one of those
Speaker 1: movies where the overacting kind of works. It's almost similar
Speaker 1: to like a lighthouse point of view, where it can
Speaker 1: be so cheesy and over the top and just kind
Speaker 1: of eye rolly, but it kind of works in this scenario.
Speaker 1: So but Bruce Campbell, yeah, he he holds it down.
Speaker 1: I think if you didn't have him, it would be
Speaker 1: a there might not be a franchise to retrospective, you know,
Speaker 1: like that's the thing. So I'm a big fan of
Speaker 1: Bruce Campbell in here and happy it all worked out
Speaker 1: for him, you know.
Speaker 3: Very kind of random question for you guys, And maybe
Speaker 3: this is just like answered number two and we don't
Speaker 3: need to go into it or anything like.
Speaker 1: That, but.
Speaker 3: I'm just curious what's going on with how they get
Speaker 3: kind of infected or turned because to me, it seemed
Speaker 3: like obviously the one girl got the tree deep inside
Speaker 3: her and that's what and then from that point, it
Speaker 3: seemed like whenever she was drawing blood or stabbing or
Speaker 3: scratching someone that infected them.
Speaker 6: But like I swear he gets scratched.
Speaker 3: Or something multiple this whole leg gets fucking yeah, exactly
Speaker 3: a leg. Yeah, So is he just immune or what's
Speaker 3: going on with him? Is he like a chosen one situation?
Speaker 3: Or am I miss him something here?
Speaker 1: Kinda but he's like I would say, the best way
Speaker 1: is he's not immune and then you'll learn about that.
Speaker 1: But like there, he's not immune and there is a
Speaker 1: chosen one sort of situation. It's kind of both and
Speaker 1: stuff like that. It's a weird thing, but like I
Speaker 1: agree with that, the rules aren't. It's so he's the
Speaker 1: main character and he can't probably you know, he got
Speaker 1: to get it affected at the end or kno getting
Speaker 1: infected and stuff like that. And maybe there is some
Speaker 1: deeper reason of why certain characters if it's like a
Speaker 1: mind over matter thing, if it's a sort of thing
Speaker 1: because of like your willpower or something, But they don't
Speaker 1: really stress that too much. She just seems like that
Speaker 1: for a while, it's okay, get the pencil, well, she
Speaker 1: is down, like I get scratched, But then ash. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a bunch of stuff does happen to him, and he
Speaker 1: does make it out at the end of it, you know.
Speaker 1: So and I'm not sure if it's just because I
Speaker 1: can't like if there can does there always have to
Speaker 1: be like one normal person kind of around, like because
Speaker 1: if he turns evil, what's he supposed to do? Like
Speaker 1: there's no one left for him to kill, right, So
Speaker 1: it's like do they even want him at that point
Speaker 1: because there's nothing. But maybe when he wins and he's
Speaker 1: going on in the free world, that's why this thing's
Speaker 1: gonna latch onto. Oh he's actually gonna escape. Let's bring
Speaker 1: that out there, you know, Let's take that and see
Speaker 1: what gas station may go to and stuff.
Speaker 3: So well, I was reading about that too. I think
Speaker 3: what Lynn does, the character's name, She is, like, you know,
Speaker 3: doing her thing. She's just sitting on the ground, just
Speaker 3: like squealing. There's so much squealing.
Speaker 1: It's a loud movie loud. Oh yeah.
Speaker 3: But at one point she fully evil, her face is transformed,
Speaker 3: but then she goes back and she's normal for a bit,
Speaker 3: and then like you know, at at some point the
Speaker 3: camera turns away and then she starts squealing again. So
Speaker 3: was that was she evil the whole time and there
Speaker 3: was like a choice that she can like appear back
Speaker 3: or did you genuinely turn back into a normal person
Speaker 3: for a bit there?
Speaker 6: What's going on there?
Speaker 5: Genuine it's that's something you learned later on, Like just
Speaker 5: they take advantage of people's like emotions and weaknesses.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's all it is. They's just like
Speaker 1: just trying to trick you into a false sense of
Speaker 1: hope that okay, so it's all better because they always
Speaker 1: say that, like, oh it's gonna be fun. That's one
Speaker 1: of my favorite quotes is, uh, all the stuff has
Speaker 1: gone down. She like the first girl has like freaked
Speaker 1: out and everything like that, and she like they have
Speaker 1: her locked in a basement, and then the other buddy
Speaker 1: that's not ash. She's just like, don't worrything's gonna be
Speaker 1: okay at this point, Like it's definitely not gonna be
Speaker 1: okay you when your friend's locked up. And I do
Speaker 1: love the line of just like what like, oh man,
Speaker 1: I got goose was just thinking about it? When what's
Speaker 1: I gotta pull the IMDb because I know some Vicky,
Speaker 1: You're not that big of a fan. You don't know
Speaker 1: all their names, but I don't said the rest of
Speaker 1: the characters aren't really much right home. But but when
Speaker 1: Ash's girlfriend just says that line of what happened to
Speaker 1: her eyes? That has always stuck with me because it's just.
Speaker 3: Like it is.
Speaker 1: They're just so dead shot. Now I will say that
Speaker 1: the makeup, I think it's it's back and forth of
Speaker 1: the ones I like and the ones I don't like.
Speaker 1: When Ash's girlfriend gets.
Speaker 4: Was Linda right because Cheryl was one with the eyes.
Speaker 1: It's them When Lynda turns evil, they just got her
Speaker 1: with some like capsules and like it's make it doesn't
Speaker 1: look anything like that crazy.
Speaker 6: But the first they don't make the neck right. They
Speaker 6: don't even do the side of the face like it's
Speaker 6: just like the front.
Speaker 1: And like legitimately part of that is because they halfway
Speaker 1: throughout the movie they had more budget, So I guarantee
Speaker 1: that's where part of it was, that they had nothing
Speaker 1: left to spend, and like, like that's why there's lots
Speaker 1: of time. I had this on the trivia that he
Speaker 1: Bruce Campbell had to play like the characters when he
Speaker 1: didn't see their face or to the side, like he
Speaker 1: had to do scenes as other characters because they shot
Speaker 1: half the movie and the other people had to go,
Speaker 1: but Bruce Campbell stayed to finish it, and that's why
Speaker 1: it's mostly him at the end. But yeah, there's a
Speaker 1: lot of stuff where if you like, it's him having
Speaker 1: to be that character. But yeah, it's uh when Cheryl turns.
Speaker 1: I really like her makeup. I love the look. I
Speaker 1: love the darkness they use in the cellar and all
Speaker 1: that stuff. And when it is just like you just
Speaker 1: see those eyes and they're like glowing, that stuff is
Speaker 1: stuck with me. And that's where, Yeah, the movie every time,
Speaker 1: I won't have to watch it as ninetime because the kids,
Speaker 1: but I have to have muted or so loud or
Speaker 1: so like quiet because they they took that treble and
Speaker 1: base and just turned it all the way up. And
Speaker 1: I could not even imagine watching this in the theaters.
Speaker 1: This must have been fucking just like you mind must
Speaker 1: have just been on fire.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's very iconic.
Speaker 7: Sounds It almost like reminds me of like Nazi zombies
Speaker 7: when you're playing that, just like the sounds like the
Speaker 7: creatures making and I mean like it just like it
Speaker 7: goes in like the evil category, like these things are
Speaker 7: not like it's no redeeming like, oh, you're gonna get
Speaker 7: them back, Like this is just pure evil and the
Speaker 7: way that they fuck with our characters and like like
Speaker 7: you shout it out already the link when the character
Speaker 7: that's possessed goes back to like the human form and
Speaker 7: just like mess with them like it it seems like
Speaker 7: like the creatures, the possessed ones are messing with Bruce
Speaker 7: Campbell or I guess called a mash like even without
Speaker 7: switching back, like the way that I can't remember if
Speaker 7: it was Linda or Cheryl, but she's just like sitting
Speaker 7: in the door way, just like super creepy smile, just
Speaker 7: doing her little like cackle, just like like why is
Speaker 7: she there?
Speaker 2: Like why is she there? Just just so he doesn't leave,
Speaker 2: or just.
Speaker 7: To completely fuck with him and get under his skin.
Speaker 7: It's just like that aspect to the characters. I think
Speaker 7: just really stuck with me is as a young one
Speaker 7: because it's like, why aren't they just attacking him, Like
Speaker 7: isn't that what they want to do here?
Speaker 2: No, They're like, ah, they're like fucking with him. It
Speaker 2: just yeah, it hits me.
Speaker 6: It was that was a weird element like the whole
Speaker 6: way through.
Speaker 3: There was several scenes where there's like, yeah, one of
Speaker 3: the evil possessed characters is like standing right in front
Speaker 3: of them, and the rest of the characters are just
Speaker 3: like standing around like they have no reaction. They're not like, Okay,
Speaker 3: let's grab a weapon. They're not like let's get out
Speaker 3: of this, let's lock the door, let's save each other.
Speaker 3: Like they just stand around and it was it was
Speaker 3: just weird to me. Reminded me of the Second Fantastic
Speaker 3: Beast movie. I remember having that criticism of the movie.
Speaker 3: There's just often characters in the background where clearly there
Speaker 3: was like no writing for them, but they're still there
Speaker 3: and they're.
Speaker 6: Just not reacting to what's going on.
Speaker 3: I just had that multiple times in this movie, where
Speaker 3: there's like, yeah, an evil character right in front of them,
Speaker 3: but they just have no.
Speaker 6: Reaction to it. It's it's very bizarre to me.
Speaker 1: And there's one thing I like that after everything goes
Speaker 1: down shore not everything, but when they got her, like
Speaker 1: this tremagic event happened, she wants to go and she can't,
Speaker 1: they just like resort to playing cars. I it's always
Speaker 1: laughed for it, just like the shit has hit the
Speaker 1: fan and like, well, let's just play some cards and
Speaker 1: she's gonna be okay. Like that portion is there's time
Speaker 1: where I go, okay, yeah, there's something in here that
Speaker 1: don't necessarily work, and I think it is. I don't
Speaker 1: know if it's a calmover for a film or other
Speaker 1: than ash Like, I don't think any of these people
Speaker 1: want on to really do much other things right, So
Speaker 1: it's just like doing the best you can with the crew.
Speaker 3: But they should have stayed on set longer instead of
Speaker 3: leaving as you said.
Speaker 1: Oh you'll see it. It got to be a bad
Speaker 1: situation where they had to live in stuff, so it
Speaker 1: was a oh yeah, some stuff went down. But what
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, I oh, sorry, career, you're gonna.
Speaker 7: Uh just I wanted to add on to the scene
Speaker 7: where you got goosebumps, where it's just like her eyes
Speaker 7: and they just keep like fixating on that. I love
Speaker 7: so much about that scene, but like particularly how it shot,
Speaker 7: Like it's basically from the perspective of Ryl, like the
Speaker 7: possessed one in the basement, and she's just like looking
Speaker 7: at them, and then like the actors are looking at
Speaker 7: the camera and it's.
Speaker 6: Just like look her eyes.
Speaker 2: Like it's just it's so freaky because us like in
Speaker 2: that moment, like we can't even see the eyes, but like,
Speaker 2: well we did already, but in that moment we don't.
Speaker 7: And it's just the noises that she's making, just like
Speaker 7: clawing out trying to get out of that that basement door.
Speaker 2: The basement. It's I feel like that's the most iconic
Speaker 2: thing for me through this entire series.
Speaker 1: And that's what's funny is because I feel like them
Speaker 1: as the human actors are not the greatest, but I
Speaker 1: feel like all of them put one hundred and ten
Speaker 1: percent effort into the being the possess, and they're they're
Speaker 1: just like, for better or worse, whether it sounds or
Speaker 1: the way they're throwing their body, they're in it. They're
Speaker 1: they're they're making me believe that they've been possessed. And
Speaker 1: it's all right, sure, al's the worst one for creepy me,
Speaker 1: Like I still think about it.
Speaker 3: Something I found funny is like the the basement, like
Speaker 3: the cellar door busts open, so they go down there
Speaker 3: and then eventually they they don't find anything, right, they
Speaker 3: just find like the book and the audio recorder.
Speaker 4: They come back up.
Speaker 3: But that was so funny to me that like they
Speaker 3: just all seem to forget about that, that they're like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 3: something did bust that cellar open. They never found what
Speaker 3: it was, and they just like forgot about it and
Speaker 3: moved on. And it's like it could have just been
Speaker 3: an animal, but it's like it would have been a
Speaker 3: big animal.
Speaker 2: When you have seen that.
Speaker 6: I thought it was funny that they just eventually forgot
Speaker 6: about that.
Speaker 3: They got distracted by all these goodies in the basement,
Speaker 3: which to an extent is understandable, but it just never
Speaker 3: comes up again.
Speaker 6: What was it the basement originally?
Speaker 1: Well, and that's what they kind of like. And I
Speaker 1: think that's why I'm very curious to them. If you
Speaker 1: watch the second one, if you end up liking that
Speaker 1: one more, because I feel like I.
Speaker 3: Want to keep going. I want to see what's going
Speaker 3: on with these movies, so I'll keep watching.
Speaker 1: It's tough because, yeah, I have the knowledge of the
Speaker 1: other ones, and it feels like with the second one
Speaker 1: they get more comedic and they lean in that. And
Speaker 1: that's why I always wonder if this first one's supposed
Speaker 1: to try and invoke that kind of comedic stuff, but
Speaker 1: at times it's trying to be so serious that it
Speaker 1: just doesn't work and it kind of comes off as
Speaker 1: silly where the other ones start to lean into it.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if it's that kind of che
Speaker 1: or chag Rick and egg or chicken situation of oh
Speaker 1: this really works that first one, I want to do
Speaker 1: more of that, or just didn't work the best here.
Speaker 1: But yeah, they're all a bunch of like dumb tea,
Speaker 1: Like all the stuff they want to do just doesn't
Speaker 1: make They are the quintessential iconic dumb characters that they're
Speaker 1: getting killed off one by one. They're not making the
Speaker 1: best decisions. They don't question what's going on, like even
Speaker 1: what happens when Cheryl comes back, Like of course you
Speaker 1: probably not gonna believe a story about a tree, but
Speaker 1: still I wouldn't be able to sit down just play
Speaker 1: cards and hang out and just oh, well, I think
Speaker 1: it's gonna be okay, Like Cheryl just had a bad night.
Speaker 1: You know, it's like, no that she's speaking about some
Speaker 1: crazy stuff right now.
Speaker 2: You know, So.
Speaker 5: When that guy went off because he's like, oh, she's
Speaker 5: your girlfriend, Scott, not mine, Yes, Scott. When he goes
Speaker 5: off and he's he's one hundred and ten percent when
Speaker 5: he's leaving because he's all not hurt or anything like that.
Speaker 4: He literally because that it was weird why Linda, like.
Speaker 5: Ash didn't do anything with Linda, Like Linda Kimmel's in
Speaker 5: the hallway sitting there and like Ash like is like
Speaker 5: freaking out buyer, but like goes to the door and
Speaker 5: then this is like two minutes later, Scott's back and
Speaker 5: they're fucking beat to shit. It's just not looking good.
Speaker 5: Puts him down on the couch. But then Ash colles
Speaker 5: to like stoke the fire and Linda's just sitting there.
Speaker 4: It's like, this is a bit weird.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Scott's quite a He's just there to be the
Speaker 1: aggressor of this situation and stuff like that. And I
Speaker 1: I loved to at one point when they were just
Speaker 1: like I think I can't remember, I can'tmember the exact
Speaker 1: dialogue went up, but their whole big plane is here
Speaker 1: is to escape, like they're just gonna bury and this
Speaker 1: is before like the whole ritual. They're just gonna bury
Speaker 1: one of the girls. And it's just I keep thinking,
Speaker 1: like what are they gonna say when they get back
Speaker 1: into town. Like I always play that in mind of
Speaker 1: like what's gonna happen, Like, how do you explain any
Speaker 1: of this, which, of course just like they're not gonna
Speaker 1: leave and stuff like that.
Speaker 3: They ever explain whose cabin they're going to?
Speaker 6: I don't think so.
Speaker 7: But they said they got a good deal on it,
Speaker 7: but I wasn't sure if that's meant that they bought it, yeah,
Speaker 7: just rented.
Speaker 1: Yeah, But I don't know if it's one of these
Speaker 1: things that ends up being like it was fate that
Speaker 1: you had to go there, because like from I suppose Dealing,
Speaker 1: the whole second movie also takes place in the cabin,
Speaker 1: so it's when the same the same cabin, the same cab, Yes,
Speaker 1: the same cabin. So yeah, I think it's kind of
Speaker 1: a like I guess it could have been a good deal,
Speaker 1: but it almost like there was a fake got them. Yeah, exactly,
Speaker 1: like somehow fake got someone there, Yeah, exactly, gotta get
Speaker 1: them out of there. But yeah, that would cook When
Speaker 1: you're talking about the basement, those were actually that's different locations.
Speaker 1: So the cabin, everything that's there, but then the trap
Speaker 1: door in the basement that they filmed a different location,
Speaker 1: so that wasn't just one set and everything like that.
Speaker 1: So but yeah, no, I I think for me, I
Speaker 1: also just like that. You know, obviously it gets a
Speaker 1: little loud at time, but I love all the set designs.
Speaker 1: I love like everything is loud and it's not loud,
Speaker 1: and the way there is a couple like I think
Speaker 1: jump scary moments, but lots of times I think it's
Speaker 1: just to feel like you're just your head's kind of pulsing.
Speaker 1: I love just get even the locks of the door,
Speaker 1: like when someone blocks the door, like it just I
Speaker 1: guess it invokes like a creepy like campfire story type
Speaker 1: away telling them when people like, oh, I'm the guy
Speaker 1: with the claw came up and stuff like. That's why
Speaker 1: I like and this is just like a very rated
Speaker 1: R version of that. But it's very like all the
Speaker 1: sound design I like, even if it's very over the top.
Speaker 1: I think I like that they chose it for the
Speaker 1: entire movie and stuff like that. Like even one of
Speaker 1: my favorite shots is when they first pull up, and
Speaker 1: I love it because you know, it's probably just some
Speaker 1: guy on the side swinging it. But when they pull
Speaker 1: up and the shot is the cars in the distance
Speaker 1: and you got that swing and it's just going back
Speaker 1: and forth, and they got like it's loud, crickety and
Speaker 1: stuff like that, but it's just like there's no wind,
Speaker 1: there's nothing going on, but it's just this chair is
Speaker 1: swinging back and forth. But I love that's just like
Speaker 1: these little choices that makes the aura of the cabin
Speaker 1: and around it feel everything feels lively and uh out
Speaker 1: to get you in a sense.
Speaker 7: So and like later on in the film and that
Speaker 7: when they would do multiple like shots of the cabin,
Speaker 7: but just like the wind is hitting it and it's
Speaker 7: just like it's like they're in like ghost town.
Speaker 2: At that point.
Speaker 7: Like it's just it's very like low visibility and just
Speaker 7: you have like the little uh like window flaps I guess,
Speaker 7: like hitting the cabin. It's just yeah, I agree with
Speaker 7: the sound design. The screeches can definitely be a little
Speaker 7: bit a little bit much at parts. I was finishing
Speaker 7: this movie this morning and Shade just like heard it,
Speaker 7: Like I don't even want to know what the hell
Speaker 7: you're watching it. It was just like like like it
Speaker 7: was like just peak, like all the possessed ones are
Speaker 7: just like screeching all at the same time.
Speaker 2: So it's like, oh yeah, no, just some people dead
Speaker 2: podcast stuff, you get it.
Speaker 1: I'm glad were I think for most houses. I see
Speaker 1: that we retired window flaps, you know, because those would
Speaker 1: I imagine sounds. But I don't see window flaps anymore,
Speaker 1: which which was wasn't the point of them just to
Speaker 1: pull them over your window for like to darken it up.
Speaker 1: I guess right, that's so, yeah, we got blinds now
Speaker 1: we got blind.
Speaker 5: I'd use a couple of window flaps pretty good, of
Speaker 5: course you would, Taylor this guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're the guys.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well you got you guys using glass.
Speaker 5: You know, when the fucking fog miss thing creatures flying
Speaker 5: at you, the deadight force, you gotta you gotta seal
Speaker 5: those in and then i won't be able to get
Speaker 5: in there.
Speaker 2: So I'm fucked either way they want me. Yeah, kidding me.
Speaker 1: I had too many windows, you know, that's the problem
Speaker 1: and breaking through and stuff like that.
Speaker 2: I'm like with the demon.
Speaker 1: So I got a big tree in the backyard.
Speaker 5: Too, so that uh, like before shit kind of like
Speaker 5: hit the fan. They were alluding to it, but like
Speaker 5: at the beginning when they were driving and there's just
Speaker 5: it's very random very peculiar. These two guys are on
Speaker 5: the sidewalk and like the Scott was hawking totally not
Speaker 5: howking are you jackasses?
Speaker 1: Very weird guy.
Speaker 7: That character had some of the funniest dialogue for me, though,
Speaker 7: because it was just like the most eye rolly, cheesy,
Speaker 7: like douchebag lines when it was like yeah, like I'm
Speaker 7: not hawking to you assholes, or like another weird one
Speaker 7: was like it's brusk or it's Ash's car, but they
Speaker 7: had like Scott driving it, which is just weird to me.
Speaker 7: I feel like, if it's my car, I'm probably gonna
Speaker 7: be the one driving. But the point but he's just like, yeah,
Speaker 7: that's fair. But he's just like ship talking.
Speaker 2: His car is like your piece of shit car, just
Speaker 2: like turn on its own.
Speaker 7: He's like, that doesn't make sense. I just got it
Speaker 7: checked in yesterday. It's like what that better get it
Speaker 7: checked again.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's just so random to me.
Speaker 7: And then the other the other great classic line from him,
Speaker 7: but I mean Taylor already mentioned a good one when
Speaker 7: he's like it's your girlfriend, I'm going out there on
Speaker 7: my own. But when when the basement door opens up
Speaker 7: and I can't remember if it was Sheryl or Linda
Speaker 7: or whoever it was. It's just like, I think it's
Speaker 7: an animal. He's like just like huge, like just flamboyant
Speaker 7: laugh and he's just like, that's the dumbest thing I've
Speaker 7: ever heard in my life, just belittally, and then a.
Speaker 3: Second later he's like, yeah, it probably was an animal.
Speaker 2: That guy just never never sees disappoint with the just
Speaker 2: asshole lines that he brings.
Speaker 1: I think, God, they didn't pick all those hitchhikers though,
Speaker 1: you know, they dodged a bolt those hitchhikers because they
Speaker 1: met fucking hated they ever they had to stop at
Speaker 1: the cabin.
Speaker 3: And yeah, I totally forgot about that scene, Taylor, but
Speaker 3: I felt like when I was watching it, I thought
Speaker 3: that there was something sinister about the truck that was oncoming,
Speaker 3: because I feel like you can't see the person that's
Speaker 3: in there, Like they make it seem like it's some
Speaker 3: sort of you know, possessed being.
Speaker 2: Or creepy music with it.
Speaker 6: Yeah, they're alluding to.
Speaker 3: Something, and then it's just like never really comes up again.
Speaker 3: So that's kind of an interesting moment.
Speaker 1: Well, I don't even know. I'd have to go back
Speaker 1: and maybe we should pull this up at one point,
Speaker 1: like what the trailers were for this and the ace?
Speaker 6: So I just wonder the way.
Speaker 1: I like, I wonder if there was a way that
Speaker 1: you're wondering, like, hey, what is the plaw of this movie?
Speaker 1: And I imagine many times like oh, the scary hitchhikers
Speaker 1: or something like that, like that could have been something
Speaker 1: maybe they're trying to allude to that, like all this
Speaker 1: might be something that's set up to it, like not supernatural,
Speaker 1: but that is. But maybe the trailers are just I
Speaker 1: guarantee the traids they got to have the monsters and
Speaker 1: stuff like that. I will have to look at it.
Speaker 1: But but yeah, I guess, like we kind of talked about,
Speaker 1: but starts are just there for the trip and then
Speaker 1: Shayl's one here and stuff and then yeah, the like
Speaker 1: you're not wrong about the tree sequence, it's not. I
Speaker 1: think you could go for more applied for it. I
Speaker 1: don't mind the choice because it's one of those, like
Speaker 1: I said, I feels like a very weird like high horror,
Speaker 1: where it's like, Okay, we're gonna take something you'd never
Speaker 1: thought of it, and I just remember, as like I
Speaker 1: I you've seen it and not exactly knowing what was
Speaker 1: going on now I do, but as you know, I
Speaker 1: just was like this tree hazard and then obviously then
Speaker 1: like a breast bops on them, Like.
Speaker 6: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 3: That's the part too where it's like, oh, of course
Speaker 3: it's ripping her clothes off and all this stuff.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it is gretringe.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it is very like it fits right with
Speaker 1: the eighties because eighties is the peak genre of like
Speaker 1: it's gonna be naked with like if you can get
Speaker 1: a girl naked, you're gonna have it in a horror movie.
Speaker 3: So maybe I just haven't seen like enough of those
Speaker 3: movies because I'm I, as many people know who've listened
Speaker 3: to gig Verse for many years, like a lot of
Speaker 3: these kind of older horror things like I just totally
Speaker 3: passed me by. It's really more in the gig Verse
Speaker 3: era that I've been watching things. But of course that's
Speaker 3: more modern things. So maybe if I had seen a
Speaker 3: bunch of these movies before, it's something I wouldn't have
Speaker 3: stood out, but it would just you know, I was
Speaker 3: just particularly weird and gross for me. Oh yeah, I
Speaker 3: just like it added absolutely nothing. It did not ascend
Speaker 3: the quality this thing at all.
Speaker 6: It was just strange.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think it's like I said before, they're trying
Speaker 1: to just shock you and trying to make you feel like, oh,
Speaker 1: that's something I haven't seen before. But yeah, the eighties,
Speaker 1: like that's Friday thirteenth, that's Halloween, and that's like pure sex, drugs,
Speaker 1: rock and roll as far as like women are constantly new,
Speaker 1: there's constant sex scenes, are getting killed during sex scene.
Speaker 1: It's like the complete there's like, I don't think exactly
Speaker 1: the same era, but it's like close to like Last
Speaker 1: House on the Left and Spit on Your Grave, where
Speaker 1: the plot is like these women getting sexual abuse and
Speaker 1: they come back to kill people. So I feel like
Speaker 1: this is very much like the way Tarantino Knight has
Speaker 1: made that movie. And we're trying to make like crime
Speaker 1: dramas like that the eighties where a lot of people
Speaker 1: just riffing off of like let's do a lot of
Speaker 1: like shocking stuff, and let's like show a lot of nudity,
Speaker 1: not lots of male nudy. You'll get some male butt,
Speaker 1: but no male nudy in here and stuff. But yeah,
Speaker 1: treating appens, and then I guess that's the thing that
Speaker 1: I like not necessarily that scene, but it just escalates
Speaker 1: very fast. I feel like other the beginning, it moves
Speaker 1: around bit. You get the tape, and I love the
Speaker 1: guy's voice on the tape. I love like it. It's
Speaker 1: again that kind of Saturday night like creepy storytelling element.
Speaker 1: I like that. But I think that's what I enjoy
Speaker 1: that it doesn't I can't even remember what the actual
Speaker 1: runtime is, but it does not feel like it takes.
Speaker 2: It's short our twenty I think, or like our twenty
Speaker 2: five something.
Speaker 1: Yah's pretty sure that's a yeah hour twenty five. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And that's what it doesn't feel like, even if there's
Speaker 1: things you dislike. I think there's things like it doesn't
Speaker 1: feel like there's like a waste of moment as far
Speaker 1: as we get into because when the shit hit the fan,
Speaker 1: it goes quick, and we do lose the characters quite
Speaker 1: often pretty fast, you know, like they're dropping like flies.
Speaker 1: So it's a not maybe an easy watch, but it's
Speaker 1: a it's a quick watch. So I like the pacing,
Speaker 1: the escalation, everything like that of it.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I mean, of course it's a very classic thing where
Speaker 3: Cheryl's the character who's already been the most freaked out,
Speaker 3: like when the when the cellar door pops open. Just everything,
Speaker 3: she's been the most freaked out. So it makes the
Speaker 3: least sense that she would be the one to off
Speaker 3: into the woods at night. It makes no sense. But
Speaker 3: of course that is like a very trophy thing, so
Speaker 3: I whatever I'm used to that. I did like the
Speaker 3: sequence when she's in the cabin and like the clock
Speaker 3: is being all weird, it's glitching out, and she was drawing,
Speaker 3: but then she starts just like you know, she's becoming
Speaker 3: possessed and she essentially draws like the Book of the Dead.
Speaker 6: I thought the acting she had on that of.
Speaker 3: Like her arm twitching out, was actually was pretty good.
Speaker 3: So I liked that that moment that was very much
Speaker 3: the turn for her character. And then I think shortly
Speaker 3: after that is when we get her floating in the window.
Speaker 6: I thought that looked really good.
Speaker 3: To me, that was maybe the standout visual moment of
Speaker 3: the whole thing. And there's some good stuff, like especially
Speaker 3: for the budget that they had and what they were
Speaker 3: working with, but I thought that looked really good.
Speaker 6: Her just floating in the window was very creepy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 7: Something I wanted to mention when you brought up the
Speaker 7: tape there, Travis, I feel like this, like this is
Speaker 7: definitely something that I see in so many type of horror,
Speaker 7: especially once a like place in a house or something
Speaker 7: that like bad shit happened here, and then this is
Speaker 7: where our new cast is. I like, I've seen this
Speaker 7: so many times, but it'll never really like fall short
Speaker 7: for me, I think is when they find those sort
Speaker 7: of tapes and it's just like we found a cabin
Speaker 7: in the woods, and then like as he keeps describing,
Speaker 7: it's like like it just gets more and more like
Speaker 7: fucked up where it's like, oh yeah, and the only
Speaker 7: way you can do is like dismembering them, but like
Speaker 7: just picturing like the characters in that situation. It's just
Speaker 7: like shit, like is this real? Did this actually happen here?
Speaker 7: I feel like that's that's like a horror movie trope
Speaker 7: that it always works for me. It's always just like
Speaker 7: a creepy concept of like especially you know, like I
Speaker 7: go to Airbnb's like with some friends or whatever out
Speaker 7: of cabin and it's just like imagine like finding something
Speaker 7: like that, I would have been totally freaked out. So
Speaker 7: I like the way that was done and you shout
Speaker 7: out the voice actor whoever was on the tape, hea
Speaker 7: the very he sounded like a professor and like that ny,
Speaker 7: soothing voice to him.
Speaker 2: You have a you have a cabin, donkey, Travis? Or
Speaker 2: should we we all be worried?
Speaker 1: That's what I wanted to do the horror movie.
Speaker 7: We're gonna pull up this exact set, swingings, going back
Speaker 7: and forth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but yeah, no, I just was shocked scrolling down.
Speaker 1: I even forgot that I was rated n C seventeen.
Speaker 1: So that's a day where it's just like, oh boy,
Speaker 1: But I just love the quote on the poster. The
Speaker 1: most ferocially ferociously original horror film of the year, Stephen King.
Speaker 2: All Right, the other one I saw was The Ultimate
Speaker 2: Experience and Grueling Horror is back.
Speaker 6: It's back.
Speaker 1: Let me check in my notes, but anything specific scenes wise,
Speaker 1: moments wise to shout out the pantsil always fucking gets.
Speaker 7: Me too, And like when he checks the wound later
Speaker 7: and it just like like the venom symbiot essentially just
Speaker 7: like takes over and then she just like springs up
Speaker 7: like don't wake up daddy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, when when Cheryl is like gnawing her hand off
Speaker 3: like that that is very visceral, very nasty. I actually
Speaker 3: really liked the stop motion of them melting. I think
Speaker 3: you mentioned Travis it gets maybe a bit too fantastical,
Speaker 3: and I can I can agree with that, but I
Speaker 3: did really like the look of it and just the
Speaker 3: melting in the ground and they throwing the kind of
Speaker 3: moldy sort of sort of colors and it's all gross,
Speaker 3: and the cockroaches are popping out.
Speaker 6: Who knows where the cockroaches came from. Just immediately there's
Speaker 6: a snake.
Speaker 2: There's a snake in there too.
Speaker 7: It's like a little like gardener snake or something that
Speaker 7: was just sitting there. I'm like, okay, that's a weird detail.
Speaker 6: A yeah. I liked that scene though.
Speaker 2: And there was like a mashed potato thing something that
Speaker 2: came out of like that, Like that's like minced garlet
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 7: Come.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that that one was was too far.
Speaker 1: I just got some meal after She's like, look I
Speaker 1: got a snake on a potato And you're bringing up
Speaker 1: further did you? Guys like the I always loved it
Speaker 1: works enough for me, but when Ash is like hitting
Speaker 1: Cheryl with the shovel, but then they like change it
Speaker 1: to the dummy Cheryl, and it's like the like the
Speaker 1: sand and I really liked it's it is. It is
Speaker 1: so goofy. It stands out, but it's almost because they're like,
Speaker 1: I can go with it. But man, I get a
Speaker 1: good laugh every time I see that thing.
Speaker 3: So I guess maybe my last note here is that
Speaker 3: I was pretty surprised at the ending that the ending
Speaker 3: is just like a direct cliffhanger of the once again
Speaker 3: the Dead like first person perspective, flying towards Ash, he
Speaker 3: turns around briefly and then it just just cuts there
Speaker 3: because I feel like lower budget things. Sam Raimi is
Speaker 3: kind of an unknown at this point, who knows if
Speaker 3: he is gonna do another one of these things, So
Speaker 3: I thought it was pretty bold to end it in
Speaker 3: a very cliffhangary way like that.
Speaker 1: So and I think that's what I like it, because
Speaker 1: it is in that aspect that you can also take
Speaker 1: it as like they just get Ash and he also
Speaker 1: still dies, you know, like no matter what, Like he
Speaker 1: gets out, but it's over because he gets out and
Speaker 1: this thing grabs him right away, and that doesn't make
Speaker 1: sense because he did this memberment. I don't know, but again,
Speaker 1: I think they kind of give you some cannon reasons
Speaker 1: later on, but that doesn't affect this one because it
Speaker 1: should just be the solo film and it's like, well
Speaker 1: he and I don't know, does that still come back
Speaker 1: to he did this member and all this stuff, But
Speaker 1: because he did get attacked or touched or anything like that,
Speaker 1: that's why it's always has like a link on or
Speaker 1: things like that. So and I love the enda, And
Speaker 1: that's like a very sam Raimie, old school Samurai would
Speaker 1: always end on some character yell and you're screaming. He
Speaker 1: brought that back from Multiverse of Madness. When Strange caught
Speaker 1: the eye, they do that same shot where it goes
Speaker 1: hard on Benedict and he yells and yeah, and he
Speaker 1: yells into it. So that's like a nice little Raimi
Speaker 1: trope there.
Speaker 2: So I love the look of the book.
Speaker 7: I think they changed the appearance of the book, if
Speaker 7: I remember correctly, from this one to the next movie,
Speaker 7: and maybe.
Speaker 2: All the other ones.
Speaker 1: I think they all of them well, because there's technically
Speaker 1: they might change the look, but there's technically three books,
Speaker 1: the Ashes con Nude, he has this book and me,
Speaker 1: which is the it's not even a remake the newest,
Speaker 1: the newest one that has come out. There's a book there,
Speaker 1: and then Eel Dead Rise apparently has the third book,
Speaker 1: because there is a moment where they talk about they
Speaker 1: show like there's three different books and they're all connected
Speaker 1: the dark. Yeah, very similar, Yeah exactly, and uh yeah,
Speaker 1: so that's why a needle Dead Rise were seeing the
Speaker 1: final book.
Speaker 7: You know, like this one to me, it just like
Speaker 7: it looks at least from the other ones that I've seen,
Speaker 7: Like it looks just the most basic, like it's just
Speaker 7: like a small little face. But at the same time,
Speaker 7: it makes it so much creepier to that point because
Speaker 7: like I could believe that this was made out of
Speaker 7: like a human face or something like it reminds me
Speaker 7: of like leather face or like like that sort of situation.
Speaker 2: So yeah, just a very very freaky book.
Speaker 7: And uh like like especially from the first time that
Speaker 7: you see the book air quotes, because like you don't
Speaker 7: actually see the book, it's just from that drawing and
Speaker 7: you just see like a little bit of a face
Speaker 7: on it, but it's like, what actually is this? And
Speaker 7: then of course you see it later on and yeah,
Speaker 7: it's just creepy concept made out of human flesh, just
Speaker 7: pure evil. Just yeah, terrifying concept.
Speaker 1: If people want to know what I was like in
Speaker 1: elementary school, that was I had a book that I
Speaker 1: had notes in there for that I had like a
Speaker 1: replica like that. They sold the store of that. That's what.
Speaker 1: Of course, of course you're the kid with the Yeah
Speaker 1: that says everything, you know, But no, it was you know,
Speaker 1: it's so funny though. The rubber book, it had such
Speaker 1: a great sensation. It felt so good to have, Like
Speaker 1: it was one of those like you just like, oh man,
Speaker 1: this is a great thing.
Speaker 2: You're just rubbing your human facebook.
Speaker 1: But I was and had like the little.
Speaker 4: Block and eyes with your teachers you're rubbing the.
Speaker 1: Teeth were so I don't think anyone would know, but
Speaker 1: it was just like, oh, it was great.
Speaker 3: Surprised because I was still like around, uh when you
Speaker 3: were in school and stuff like that.
Speaker 1: Well, I think it it is, but my dad found
Speaker 1: it because like he knows, I'm fan that stuff, But
Speaker 1: I think it is. That's the good stuff. But when
Speaker 1: movies become cult classics as well, because the merchandise is
Speaker 1: always around, like hot topic always has something where I
Speaker 1: don't know if there was like a well even then
Speaker 1: though maybe it could have been a time because when
Speaker 1: does Army Darkness come out? That's the third one, and
Speaker 1: that could that was I guess, yeah, that was more.
Speaker 1: That was nineteen ninety two. But so no, I was
Speaker 1: not alive yet, so I don't know where my deg
Speaker 1: I have to ask him. But I remember getting it
Speaker 1: for Christmas and it was just the feel.
Speaker 4: It was like such a nice rubber, real skin book
Speaker 4: that he got.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I went to a cabin one day and I
Speaker 1: found Travis, here's this.
Speaker 6: I don't have a way to play this.
Speaker 7: We talked about some of the gore already, but like
Speaker 7: just shouting out a couple of scenes in particular, you
Speaker 7: did the pencil on already, Travis. But when I think
Speaker 7: it's when when Ash is like versus Scott and he
Speaker 7: just like squishes his eyeballs in and they just like
Speaker 7: like gush out, and I think after that he like
Speaker 7: pulls something I don't even remember what it is like
Speaker 7: out of Scott and it's literally just like open the
Speaker 7: flood gates, just like so much blood pours out of it.
Speaker 7: I definitely forgot about just how like how much liquid
Speaker 7: is in this movie. I guess is a good way
Speaker 7: to say it, because like burst Campbell just gets so
Speaker 7: coated in like blood in brownish whitish looking liquids at times,
Speaker 7: like it's just he is just encased. He's like looking
Speaker 7: like a Nickelodeon Choice Award or something like that.
Speaker 1: By the end of it, when he's finding the camera
Speaker 1: and like you have that and I love the shot
Speaker 1: when it's a camera, it's the blood and and that's
Speaker 1: where I think the na gets very We're just gonna
Speaker 1: do a bunch of just random creepy shit because like
Speaker 1: why is this camera turning on? Why is it blood?
Speaker 1: But I love all that stuff, and yeah, it just
Speaker 1: looks like he's been through He's been through hell, and
Speaker 1: I guess he did go through hell.
Speaker 2: You know he really did.
Speaker 7: Yeah, So the gore and like again that's where like
Speaker 7: the practical effects it just it's it's shiny in those moments,
Speaker 7: like like like the pencil and you just see like
Speaker 7: the gush coming out of it, or like when Bruce
Speaker 7: Campbell is uh outside and like I already talked about,
Speaker 7: like when he's getting his like leg just clawed at
Speaker 7: and it's just like peeling the skin back, like it's
Speaker 7: just like a really weak orange peel or something, and
Speaker 7: it's just like.
Speaker 2: Right to the flesh. It's like, God, this is just
Speaker 2: so gruesome. But I normally hate this sort of stuff.
Speaker 7: But I think it's just because I I have fond
Speaker 7: memories of being absolutely scared of shit back in the day, and.
Speaker 1: He thing else it's gonna I did find the trail,
Speaker 1: so I was gonna pull that up.
Speaker 2: I don't think they get anything. No, I don't have anything, all.
Speaker 1: Right, I pull that up and then I got some
Speaker 1: fun trivia about how the shooting situation was not the
Speaker 1: not the best, but they they made it work. So
Speaker 1: let's hear a full screen that I don't know why
Speaker 1: the screen is blue. Give me a second. Here is.
Speaker 3: Evil dead.
Speaker 1: I'll make sure that sounds not too loud. Don't want
Speaker 1: those schools going on.
Speaker 2: Mm hm Yeah, for Taylor's sake.
Speaker 1: Trailer HD ten ADP guarantee this is a ten A
Speaker 1: P trail. They can say it's ten AP.
Speaker 3: But no, I watched this thing in four by three resolution.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they even show the tree. I'm surprised about, like
Speaker 1: how much they show in a trailer already, you know,
Speaker 1: Like I remember I said they'd show the monsters.
Speaker 3: Yeah right away with the Yeah, this is nothing like
Speaker 3: a modern trailer, which is, you know, not surprising, but
Speaker 3: it's interesting to go back to this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's just but I feel like they're showing you,
Speaker 1: like almost all the movie here, like not like in
Speaker 1: the sequence of like start to finish, but the big
Speaker 1: scares and but no one would have prepared you for.
Speaker 1: Oh sorry, Taylor, you might want to mute this because you're.
Speaker 4: He's got his Apple headphones.
Speaker 1: In there, headphones. But I don't care what happens.
Speaker 2: I've made the trailer.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, the chainsaw.
Speaker 3: You know that that's pretty iconic in the series, right, Yeah,
Speaker 3: it's such.
Speaker 2: A weird trailer.
Speaker 1: All that's why you got to go to Bernie's and Colonna,
Speaker 1: like they play the trailers and like even they like
Speaker 1: the Star Wars New Hope trailer. It's just like the
Speaker 1: most like just the things they show. She's like, how
Speaker 1: did people go? Like, how are people hyped to go
Speaker 1: see Star Wars and New Hope when you see the trailer?
Speaker 1: So and that that shot is like that the close up,
Speaker 1: that's like the class that I feel like I see
Speaker 1: all the time. In pre they showed the they're showing
Speaker 1: like the whole ending here and everything.
Speaker 6: They show a ton man.
Speaker 1: They're literally about there. Well, there you go. So there
Speaker 1: there's a trailer from nineteen eighty one. So let's see here.
Speaker 1: So the cabin, I said, the gujory of the cabin
Speaker 1: used as film was also lodging thirteen crew members, with
Speaker 1: several people sleeping in the same room. Living conditions were terrible.
Speaker 1: The crew frequently argued. The cabin didn't have plumbing, so
Speaker 1: the actors went days without showering and fell ill frequently
Speaker 1: in the freezing weather. By the end of the production,
Speaker 1: they were burning furniture to stay warm. Wow, So that
Speaker 1: is fucking gorilla on this. They should they should, maybe
Speaker 1: for legal reasons, they don't want to. At the end
Speaker 1: of principal shooting in Tennessee, the crew put together a
Speaker 1: little time capsule package and buried inside the fireplace at
Speaker 1: the cabin as a memental production to whom ever found it.
Speaker 1: The cabin has since been destroyed. It got burned down,
Speaker 1: but the fireplace is still intact. They had this fireplace
Speaker 1: in this cabin built specifically for the movie. That's the
Speaker 1: only thing that's still standing. Apparently, no one's actually said,
Speaker 1: where this cabin is Sam Raimi's joke that he's the
Speaker 1: one that burnt it down. Apparently was just some teens
Speaker 1: hanging out. But the reason people stop revealing the situation
Speaker 1: is because I guess there was lots of graffiti when
Speaker 1: people did fight, like lots of just evil dead stuff
Speaker 1: put around and everything. But yeah, so it's burnt down
Speaker 1: and just somewhere in the woods. I'm not sure if
Speaker 1: it's still there, but just that fireplace they made for
Speaker 1: the movie was the only thing standing. So that's kind
Speaker 1: of fun and creepy and stuff.
Speaker 2: That's like, yeah, it's got its own creepy story to it.
Speaker 2: Did they have like a tape a tape in there?
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, what did they bury? You know what did
Speaker 1: they bury?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: So the original script called for all the characters to
Speaker 1: be smoking marijuana when they're listening to the tape. The
Speaker 1: actors decided to try this for real, and the entire
Speaker 1: scene had to be reshot due to their uncontrolla will
Speaker 1: be so imagine it just didn't go well.
Speaker 3: Burn some budget there, some valuable budget, plus the amount
Speaker 3: of money they spent on weed that part of the budget.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to get that in there. Yeah, The blood is
Speaker 1: a combination of Carl Syrup non dairy creamer and red
Speaker 1: food coloring. At one point, Bruce Campbell's searched the shirt.
Speaker 1: That shirt that he wears was so saturated with the
Speaker 1: fake blood. After drawing it by the fire, he went
Speaker 1: to go put it on. It was so solidified that
Speaker 1: it broke when he tried to put it on. So
Speaker 1: how he's covered. It was just like raw he just
Speaker 1: put on, just ripped apart there. So I talked about this.
Speaker 1: After completing the filmography or the photography of the winter
Speaker 1: of nineteen seventy nine to nineteen eighty, most the actors
Speaker 1: left production. However, there was still much of the film
Speaker 1: to be completed. The second half of the film features
Speaker 1: Bruce Campbell and various stance and for fake sinse. So
Speaker 1: there you go. It's just people that helped out to
Speaker 1: replace the actors who left. The eerie wind noise in
Speaker 1: the movie was recorded by Sam Raimi. He first heard
Speaker 1: it through his bedroom window, so that's literally just him
Speaker 1: having some audio recording device at his home with a
Speaker 1: next to his window, so that's what that is. He
Speaker 1: originally wanted to title the movie Book of the Dead,
Speaker 1: but producer Ivan Sharprough changed the title to Eel Dead
Speaker 1: for fear of the kids would be turned off by
Speaker 1: seeing a movie with literacy reference in the title, and
Speaker 1: then the last one, the film ran out of money
Speaker 1: and only half of it was completed. In the winter
Speaker 1: of nineteen eighty, in order to complete sam Raimi, Rob
Speaker 1: Tapert and Bruce Campbell did everything they did to complete it,
Speaker 1: from taking out high interest bank loans, some morning boring
Speaker 1: money from friends and family, to even making cold calls
Speaker 1: to businesses around their state of Michigan. The cold calls
Speaker 1: worked and that they actually got catering, gasoline, other necessaries
Speaker 1: for the cast and crew needed. And that's just a
Speaker 1: few of them. But like I said, that's one opposite
Speaker 1: of like the John Wick Wins, where it's just all
Speaker 1: bout the training. There is just a plethora of just
Speaker 1: notes and stuff that you could read for days. Like man,
Speaker 1: like the fact that it was it got made, got
Speaker 1: completed and actually made these guys created, like Bruce Campbell
Speaker 1: made a living out of the Samurai went Undergo Dregs,
Speaker 1: Spider Man, all this stuff, like the fact that it
Speaker 1: worked is kind of crazy. So yeah, go read that,
Speaker 1: and maybe I'm sure, there probably is some documentary, but
Speaker 1: I'd love like a full, like really big tear documentary.
Speaker 1: You don't have like me this series, but yeah, dyl
Speaker 1: Muss any final thoughts, I'm excited to see what what
Speaker 1: do you feel about too. I'm not promising it's gonna
Speaker 1: be like the the Changing of the Revolution and stuff
Speaker 1: like that, but I don't think you'll be revisiting this
Speaker 1: anytime soon.
Speaker 6: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 3: I mean, even what you mentioned of them leaning more
Speaker 3: into the comedy, I think will actually work a lot
Speaker 3: for me, a lot more for me, and that'll fit
Speaker 3: the tone of what this thing is. So yeah, I
Speaker 3: am curious to go see more of these things. And
Speaker 3: it is kind of an interesting history lesson to go
Speaker 3: back and see the first like feature movie from from
Speaker 3: Sam Raimi, who you know, I love his superhero stuff,
Speaker 3: but never gone to see like where his roots were,
Speaker 3: especially like even yeah the Doctor Strange multiverse madness element
Speaker 3: of like the Strain, the horror elements of that, and
Speaker 3: where he came from this stuff. So yeah, I'm glad
Speaker 3: I watched this, even if I didn't really enjoy it,
Speaker 3: and hopefully I can enjoy more of the second one.
Speaker 3: An Army of Darkness and the remakes and all that stuff.
Speaker 3: So yeah, I'm looking forward to that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you can cross off the list. You've seen The
Speaker 1: Evil Dead, you know, it's off the bucket list.
Speaker 7: So Kirkhampatser, Yeah, I you know, think about I don't
Speaker 7: even think I've seen Army of Darkness now that I'm
Speaker 7: I mean, i've seen the least. Yeah, I bounced on
Speaker 7: the IMDb and it just did not did not ring
Speaker 7: any bells there. I've definitely seen the first two and
Speaker 7: the remake. So this is gonna be such a fun
Speaker 7: retro to go through it, especially just like hearing Dylan's
Speaker 7: thoughts and someone that's never seen this before. It's fun
Speaker 7: to have my gosh, part of me a a companion
Speaker 7: I guess on this journey. So yeah, but for this movie,
Speaker 7: like I said, like it just has such a special
Speaker 7: place in my heart. I definitely I see the the
Speaker 7: aging of this movie and like the cheesiness that comes
Speaker 7: with it, and especially just yeah, like the tree scene.
Speaker 7: It's just it doesn't really it's not really nice to
Speaker 7: see a scene like that nowadays. But like just just
Speaker 7: for how fucked up of a situation that is. I
Speaker 7: guess it fits this fucked up movie that was made
Speaker 7: from the eighties. But I think this is gonna be
Speaker 7: one that although I don't revisit this movie like a lot,
Speaker 7: this is just, like I already mentioned, like, this is
Speaker 7: just such a household favorite amongst my family. We'll at
Speaker 7: least me and my dad will rewatch it every once
Speaker 7: in a while. I'm excited to do another Evil Dead
Speaker 7: watch along with him on that one. I think I'm
Speaker 7: gonna just have to give this movie like a ten
Speaker 7: out of ten. Honestly for me, it's yeah, it's it's
Speaker 7: just it's such a special place in my heart.
Speaker 2: I love it so much.
Speaker 7: Maybe okay, maybe it's not a perfect maybe like a
Speaker 7: nine point five now that I still want a little
Speaker 7: bit more. I'm curious how I feel about like the
Speaker 7: other ones that I haven't seen in a long time,
Speaker 7: especially like Evil, Evil of Darkness, Army of Darkness.
Speaker 6: There you go.
Speaker 7: Man, done a lot of casts today, But so yeah,
Speaker 7: I'm excited to see how those feelings hit on those
Speaker 7: other ones. But yeah, this one is just great. Nostalgic
Speaker 7: memories washed it way too young, definitely gave me some
Speaker 7: nightmares back in the day, But.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there I film.
Speaker 5: I mean really spending the last like ten minutes, you're
Speaker 5: thinking of what I would actually write this, It's it's
Speaker 5: not something like this was one that I would not
Speaker 5: go back to. Like, out of all the Evil Dead movies,
Speaker 5: I know which ones I would go back to h
Speaker 5: And so factoring that into my rating, I'd probably go
Speaker 5: maybe like a seven out of ten. And that's me
Speaker 5: being generous because I was thinking like a six to
Speaker 5: six point five. But like, there are some very cool
Speaker 5: things that I think, do you set the tone in
Speaker 5: this movie? And I will give it that seven just
Speaker 5: to kind of put it in that more positive spectrum
Speaker 5: because I think if you if you like these like
Speaker 5: og kind of or flicks, I think this is definitely
Speaker 5: something that would be up your alley then. And there's
Speaker 5: just yeah, if if you've enjoyed everything else Evil Dead,
Speaker 5: then go back and watch where it all started for sure,
Speaker 5: because there's there's a lot that they they did in
Speaker 5: this movie to make it work with limited access to
Speaker 5: resources and stuff at the time that they had.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm gonna do with Kirkland, and I'm gonna
Speaker 1: stick with my ten out of ten. I gotta drop
Speaker 1: the ten there I've again, it doesn't always come down
Speaker 1: like that's what I would critically give it, just the
Speaker 1: just the field and the gut. Watch it so many times,
Speaker 1: I have a good time with it. I I guess
Speaker 1: I don't want to say. I don't want to spoil
Speaker 1: any rankings or stuff like that. Plus I haven't seen
Speaker 1: the new movie, but uh, it sets the foundation. I
Speaker 1: like what they're going for and it's just at times
Speaker 1: a creepy, messed up movie that sticks with me, like
Speaker 1: just certain images or burned in my head. And uh
Speaker 1: yeah again with that run time too, I feel like
Speaker 1: it's the nicest snack size horror venture you just pop
Speaker 1: on if you're not watching all four. And I've done
Speaker 1: that many times where I've just watched this one. There's
Speaker 1: there's some franch whatnot where you go, I'm gonna watch
Speaker 1: them all. Many times I just watch Evil Dead one
Speaker 1: and then I'm good. I'm not not saying I don't
Speaker 1: like any of the other ones or some great stuff
Speaker 1: coming up, but lot of times I could just sold
Speaker 1: this one. But yeah, tend for me. I Uh, I
Speaker 1: love this mood. It's it's a it's a good time.
Speaker 1: Despite some some issues or some cheesiness along the way,
Speaker 1: but uh yeah, we'll be back next week with Evil
Speaker 1: Dead two, a very interesting, uh type of movie instead
Speaker 1: of what they do with this franchise, and uh yeah,
Speaker 1: pros you it'll not be boring.
Speaker 3: Really
