Speaker 3: twenty six, Live on a Thursday night with my buddy,
Speaker 3: mister doctor Will Dotson.
Speaker 2: How are we doing, mister doctor? Yeah, Happy new year, buddy.
Speaker 2: How are you ask me later? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Uh, tonight after announcements, we're gonna get over a wrap
Speaker 3: up on twenty twenty five, looking forward to twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3: Lots of stuff to talk about. We both kind of
Speaker 3: had a crappy end of the year that we'll be
Speaker 3: talking about a couple of things.
Speaker 2: And uh, actually I'm mad at you right now. What
Speaker 2: did I do? Okay? I fixed it? Like defaults to this.
Speaker 3: New weird the vertical stream.
Speaker 2: Vertical stream, which is what what does that vertical stream?
Speaker 3: People are watching on their phones? Man, we get we
Speaker 3: gotta we gotta cater to them.
Speaker 2: This is this is what I have to people who
Speaker 2: have to say to people who are watching it on
Speaker 2: their phone, okay.
Speaker 3: Barely visible. I'm not even sure exactly what you're showing.
Speaker 2: Well maybe because you're watching it on your phone, I
Speaker 2: am not. I was showing my David Lynch T shirt
Speaker 2: resting power. Yes, okay, mister doctor David Lynch. Anyways, we
Speaker 2: got lots to talk about that tonight. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: twenty twenty fives, Like, regardless of your political point of view, objectively,
Speaker 2: everything was awful.
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, a lot of things were pretty terrible.
Speaker 3: I won't say everything was awful, but most things wrong.
Speaker 2: I mean, like that's what's so weird about it, Like
Speaker 2: I feel weirdly guilty about all the cool things that
Speaker 2: I personally got to do this year, Like this year
Speaker 2: was better than twenty twenty four for me personally, but
Speaker 2: for the world. No, And I'd agree with that. You know,
Speaker 2: I grieve for the people of This is not the
Speaker 2: way you want to start with death. Well, I grieve.
Speaker 2: I grieve for the people of Sudan, of Gaza, of
Speaker 2: the West Bank of Israel, Ukraine, of Russia. Oh, I
Speaker 2: hate all governments everywhere now and regardless of how you
Speaker 2: feel about our government, Like whether you think that this
Speaker 2: needed to happen or or didn't need to happen. It
Speaker 2: still sucks. Yeah, it's true, and we've lost so many
Speaker 2: icons of the arts. Freaking Ozzy Osbourne is dead. Yeah,
Speaker 2: David Lynch Lystone, you know, like we could spend the
Speaker 2: next three hours just listing all the people. Yeah. I'm
Speaker 2: even sad about Brigitte Bardeux. I get it. Despite her abhorrent,
Speaker 2: abhorrent politics, she's still an icon. And some of the
Speaker 2: stuff she said about me too, was like funny to
Speaker 2: give it to her. She's like she was like, if
Speaker 2: a man is talented, he should be able to slap
Speaker 2: your ass. So rest in peace, Burgee Bardeux. She did
Speaker 2: a lot of great stuff for animals, both of the
Speaker 2: animal kind, and so you know, I've been looking forward
Speaker 2: to this because I get to play the fool for
Speaker 2: a few hours and that's nice. Yeah, but I'm really sad. Actually,
Speaker 2: the saddest thing for me I was just informed by
Speaker 2: Ryan I can't talk about until the very end of
Speaker 2: the show. So anybody who's listening, if you want to
Speaker 2: hear the saddest thing that happened, in my opinion, you're
Speaker 2: now going to have to wait as we get through
Speaker 2: seventy three partner label announcements.
Speaker 3: Let's be honest here, there's not even seventy three total announcements,
Speaker 3: let alone just partner label announcements.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, of course, as I just said, I play the fool. Yeah, oh,
Speaker 2: you play it well.
Speaker 3: Uh No, it's it's been a fun couple of weeks, uh,
Speaker 3: he says wistfully. It's been. It's been a hell of
Speaker 3: a like year these last two months, is the way
Speaker 3: that I feel, that's for sure.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so I do. Everybody who's watching. Thanks, Happy New
Speaker 2: Year too. I hope that you're doing well. Josephine. I'm like,
Speaker 2: oh for on all the movies that you asked about.
Speaker 3: In the Even worse, I can't even see Josephine's chat.
Speaker 3: I can't see the comment at all.
Speaker 2: I wrote them all down and then promptly set my
Speaker 2: paper over there.
Speaker 3: But if you tap the comment, because you can see it,
Speaker 3: it'll bring it up on the screen too.
Speaker 2: Since you're naw, I'm just what am tappen?
Speaker 3: Go up to the comment, put your cursor over it.
Speaker 2: How do I man?
Speaker 3: For people watching? I have to do this sort of.
Speaker 2: Thing, all right? Am I am? I the host now
Speaker 2: is that what I'm doing? You are all you.
Speaker 3: You are admined to count on this. There you go,
Speaker 3: look at that.
Speaker 2: I'm glad somebody likes my political takes. Last time I
Speaker 2: got lectured on my simplistic view on wealth taxes.
Speaker 3: Well you haven't seen forbidden Zone.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I've seen for bidden zone. The corman. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Was gonna say that's all I look at that. That
Speaker 3: looked like it was climbing up on your shoulder because
Speaker 3: of the cow. Great to see the cat.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this is Valentina. She's in heat, so she likes
Speaker 2: me the best.
Speaker 3: Right now, Mary's here. Happy New Year there, Mary.
Speaker 2: So are you seeing the comments now?
Speaker 3: Well, I was seeing all of them except for the
Speaker 3: ones that came in early this week for some reason.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure why that was the case. But yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm glad everybody's here. It is going to be a
Speaker 3: hell of a week. It is a lot to talk
Speaker 3: about this week because we've got vinegar syndrome this week.
Speaker 3: But we don't have arrow, which you and I normally do.
Speaker 3: They did it early shout factory will be on so
Speaker 3: we don't have them. But yeah, we got an odd
Speaker 3: slate to cover this week.
Speaker 2: There's some things I hope I get to talk about.
Speaker 2: I can't remember when they were announced. Yeah, but you know,
Speaker 2: I feel like we're we jumped over an important controversy.
Speaker 2: Why is it that you're now privileging viewers who watch
Speaker 2: on their phones.
Speaker 3: I'm not privileged privileging. I'm giving them an opportunity too.
Speaker 3: There's two different ones.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but the defaults to oh, I don't know, I
Speaker 2: don't know, I don't know.
Speaker 3: I also to to try to make it less confusing
Speaker 3: for people. I wrote the words portrait and landscape and
Speaker 3: the titles, so you know.
Speaker 2: Which is which. See if that works?
Speaker 3: Nice neck warmer. Well, Tonight, after our announcements, we're going
Speaker 3: to talk about some stuff from this year, talk about
Speaker 3: what's coming up in twenty twenty six, roll over some
Speaker 3: personal stories for stuff that's been happening to us lately,
Speaker 3: and we will happily try to discuss as much as
Speaker 3: we can. We'd love to hear stories from everybody else.
Speaker 3: Stuff that was great for you this year, stuff that
Speaker 3: was personal or vulnerable that you want to share what.
Speaker 3: We'll happily cover those as well. But before we get
Speaker 3: there our usual stuff, you want to highlight anything new
Speaker 3: that you've watched in the last month.
Speaker 2: Sirt sure. So it was the season for Yule Tide
Speaker 2: sheer and so I watched a bunch of Christmas movies,
Speaker 2: starting with a movie that's actually not a Christmas movie,
Speaker 2: Christmas in July by Preston Sturges, which I've been wanting
Speaker 2: to see forever and did not realize a it's only
Speaker 2: sixty seven minutes and be Sam Deagan commentary. So the
Speaker 2: movie was great. I'm going to listen to the commentary
Speaker 2: in the coming week. Yeah, surprisingly socialist view of the world.
Speaker 2: So enjoyed Christmas in July. I recommend it to anyone
Speaker 2: revisited a classic Terry's Wygoff's Bad Santa, which is in
Speaker 2: a bad case and could use I don't know, criterion
Speaker 2: upgrade or something. Well, they got all as other movies
Speaker 2: except for School Confidential. Why not get Bad Santa. I
Speaker 2: haven't seen Bad Santa too, kind of afraid to been
Speaker 2: wanting to see this for a long time. Christmas in
Speaker 2: Connecticut with Barbara Stanwick. Yeah, this one's very conservative view
Speaker 2: of the world, but still enjoyable. A lot of double
Speaker 2: entendres in here, great baby washing scene and then I
Speaker 2: ran the series Silent Night, Deadly Night, which remains a favorite,
Speaker 2: Silent Night, Deadly Night Part two, which is yeah, once
Speaker 2: you got the garbage day scene, that's basically the only
Speaker 2: reason to watch this, and then silently I got to
Speaker 2: revisit for the first time Son Night, Daily Night three,
Speaker 2: Better Watch Out with directed by Monty Hellman and starring
Speaker 2: a nearly mute Bill Moseley as the Santa Killer with
Speaker 2: a tapioca what do you call that stuff? A tapioca
Speaker 2: tupperware on his head holding in his brain. The best
Speaker 2: of the series in my opinion. Brian used in a
Speaker 2: Solid Night, Daily Night for initiation, which is just about
Speaker 2: a witch's covin, has no connection to the franchise, and
Speaker 2: I haven't had a chance to watch part five, The
Speaker 2: Toymaker yet with Mickey Rooney Rooney saw many years ago
Speaker 2: and someone to watch watch it to complete the series.
Speaker 2: Tomorrow Night. Enjoyed that series. I saw death Simber, which
Speaker 2: I was told by you was not good.
Speaker 3: I would love direct quotes rather than these words that
Speaker 3: you put in my mouth.
Speaker 2: What what did you? What did I put in your mouth? Right?
Speaker 3: I did not say it was not good. I've not
Speaker 3: seen it, huh, I said. I was told by others
Speaker 3: that this is not good.
Speaker 2: Others lied, Death Simber is quite good. It's an advent
Speaker 2: calendar of short films, the second of which directed by
Speaker 2: Michael Vati and featuring friend of the show Tiffany Sheppis.
Speaker 2: But all of them are watchable, even the lesser ones
Speaker 2: are short, so you're immediately moving on. Halfway through you
Speaker 2: get a Riggio Dio Dado short film that is whole hilarious.
Speaker 2: Deathcember recommended two discs from Culture Shock, just one. The
Speaker 2: film is two and a half hours long because it's
Speaker 2: twenty four shorts. And then this too is all extras
Speaker 2: interviews and makings and stuff. So I really enjoyed that.
Speaker 2: Watched the Advent Calendar on Shutter, Belgian French Christmas horror
Speaker 2: film about a paraplegic is are you allowed to say that?
Speaker 3: I believe so. Yeah, as long as there's two of.
Speaker 2: Them, a person with paraplegia encounter some magical advent not
Speaker 2: have said that. I'm so sorry that person. First, and
Speaker 2: then I watched my favorite Christmas film of all time,
Speaker 2: and this is where I'm really going to lose the
Speaker 2: audience for Christmases. I love this movie so much. Every
Speaker 2: review of it says that it is joyless. I disagree.
Speaker 2: I think this film is joyful. Reviews suggest that Vince
Speaker 2: Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon didn't get along. Don't care. I
Speaker 2: love this movie. It's so funny. Three of the four
Speaker 2: Christmases are hilarious and the fourth one, the fourth one
Speaker 2: is so heartwarming it almost makes you forget that it's
Speaker 2: John Voight for Christmases? Love it? Oh god, OK, where's
Speaker 2: the four K for Christmas? That saw some films I'm
Speaker 2: going since we don't have any announcements time. I saw
Speaker 2: three films in the theater in December, which is wild
Speaker 2: for me until I'll tell you what they are. It's
Speaker 2: I saw The Shining and Imax Incredible with my friend
Speaker 2: John Day and our friend Phil Jarman of the spook
Speaker 2: House podcast. Then took my daughter to see Five Nights
Speaker 2: at Freddy Too. Oh my god, that was she and
Speaker 2: the whole time she's correcting the lore, which is like
Speaker 2: the most entertaining part was seeing how pissed off my
Speaker 2: daughter got. Yeah, she's correcting the law. And then just uh, yesterday,
Speaker 2: I took her to see Zutopia too, which in addition
Speaker 2: to being woke as fuck and simplistically hateful towards rich
Speaker 2: people as well. Where yet where her critics put on
Speaker 2: that one has an incongruous Shining homage in the climax,
Speaker 2: So that.
Speaker 3: Was quite explicitly the show.
Speaker 2: Very Good has no reason to be there other than
Speaker 2: to wake parents up at the hour and thirty minute
Speaker 2: mark to say, hey, you have fifteen more minutes. But
Speaker 2: here's something you'd recognize. There was quite a few references
Speaker 2: in Zutopia. Actually, yeah, so I saw that, Say what else?
Speaker 2: What else did I see? Working my way through season
Speaker 2: two of land Man Billy Bob Thornton, which reminds me
Speaker 2: I'm still waiting for what I consider to be the
Speaker 2: greatest comedy of the nineties to get a decent release,
Speaker 2: Sling Blade.
Speaker 3: I think that's Disney known, so that that could be
Speaker 3: why we don't have a great release of it.
Speaker 2: Well, I would love to have a stacked four K
Speaker 2: of Sling Blade. I would love to do a commentary
Speaker 2: or a visual essay on why it's the greatest comedy
Speaker 2: of the nineties.
Speaker 3: We could just do a visual I say, in all
Speaker 3: the different types of French fried potatoes.
Speaker 2: And can get some more that potted meat. Uh.
Speaker 3: We had a question from Adam, what do you think
Speaker 3: is the greatest capitalist Christmas film? He says Trading Places,
Speaker 3: Home Alone two homelone two should be up there. I
Speaker 3: think Jingle All the Way should be up there.
Speaker 2: Never seen that one, I guess, since I love four
Speaker 2: Christmas is so much, at some point I need to
Speaker 2: see Fred Claus or never.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna say ferred Clause, but that's only a reference for.
Speaker 2: There there are. There is a stack of Christmas movies
Speaker 2: that I haven't watched yet. I'm gonna have to bleed
Speaker 2: them into January. But I'm gonna watch White Christmas. Yes, Virginia,
Speaker 2: there is a Santa Claus with Charles Bronson.
Speaker 3: I almost said Charlton.
Speaker 2: Santa Claus, the movie that weird eighties one with Dudley
Speaker 2: Moore as all They and what else? Oh the Renee
Speaker 2: Cardona senor Santa Claus. And finally Rare Exports, great movie story,
Speaker 2: great movie gat So watching all this? What else did
Speaker 2: I watch this month? I rewatched Five Easy Pieces, which
Speaker 2: I hadn't seen in a long time. That was something.
Speaker 2: Watching rich kid coseplay as a working class feller. Nice
Speaker 2: that's kind of fun. Yeah, I had a pretty good
Speaker 2: run there, not even listening them all, but those are
Speaker 2: those are the main things I watched. How about you?
Speaker 2: What did you see this month?
Speaker 3: I watched a lot this month, but from since I
Speaker 3: do this every week, I'm going to just share it.
Speaker 3: Two from this last week, I caught up with Marty
Speaker 3: Supreme that just came out. Everybody's talking about it, so
Speaker 3: I won't say too too much, but I will say
Speaker 3: it's freaking stupendous. It is possibly my favorite of the
Speaker 3: Safti Brothers films at all so far. I feel like
Speaker 3: it's better than Uncut Gems, which I truly enjoyed a lot,
Speaker 3: and I adored Good Time, but I will watch Marty
Speaker 3: Supreme any day over Good Time. Timothy shell May was
Speaker 3: shockingly great. There was a lot of people that disappeared
Speaker 3: into like borderline cameo roles, like Pengolette is in it
Speaker 3: for two scenes and he is just genuinely unrecognizable and
Speaker 3: incredible in the film, really well acted, just very engaging story.
Speaker 3: And I will say probably the movie this year that
Speaker 3: kept me more surprised than any other film, Like literally
Speaker 3: any scene you could have asked me what was gonna
Speaker 3: happen next? And I would have been wrong literally every
Speaker 3: single time.
Speaker 2: I loved that about it. That's the ping pong movie.
Speaker 3: It is the ping pong movie. Although funny enough, that's
Speaker 3: not a huge portion of the film. They sure leaned
Speaker 3: on in the marketing, and it's obviously like the crutch
Speaker 3: of the film, but it's not in but maybe a.
Speaker 2: Third of the story. How is it compared to Balls
Speaker 2: of Fury?
Speaker 3: I will say it's slightly less comedic. Balls of Fury
Speaker 3: was a wild movie.
Speaker 2: You know what I did? See? I did. There's a
Speaker 2: new show. I can't remember what streaming service it's on.
Speaker 2: There's a new show with Anthony Edwards from the Minnesota Timberwolves,
Speaker 2: the basketball player you.
Speaker 3: Now, oh yeah, yeah, where.
Speaker 2: He just plays sports with other people. And the first
Speaker 2: episode is him playing ping pong against some football player
Speaker 2: who's like smoking the biggest one that's ever been rolled.
Speaker 2: That's really fun, and a couple of Olympic ping pong
Speaker 2: players who you know, just beat the shit out of them.
Speaker 2: It's funny. Yeah, that sounds great. So Marty's Supreme with
Speaker 2: timoth Ay Shama May.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's by far the best film I've seen him
Speaker 3: in for sure. And then the other big thing that
Speaker 3: I watched this week is a semi new Netflix documentary
Speaker 3: called The Perfect Neighbor, and it is very good. I
Speaker 3: won't say it's incredible or anything like that, but it's
Speaker 3: it's very good, and I think the best part about
Speaker 3: it is rafting the proper narrative without any background narration
Speaker 3: at all. It is pretty much entirely with bodycam footage
Speaker 3: from the police and tell me, I don't know what
Speaker 3: that was, but that was funny. Yeah, almost entirely bodycam footage.
Speaker 3: And then there's a couple of things where they play
Speaker 3: like nine to one one calls and then some information
Speaker 3: on the end.
Speaker 2: But yeah, that's called nude, I.
Speaker 3: Said, semi nude, not nude. It's called the Perfect Neighbor.
Speaker 2: Well, she was a semi nude, she'd be the perfect neighbor.
Speaker 2: It is.
Speaker 3: You watched this, You watch this doc and that is
Speaker 3: so not true.
Speaker 2: Some very nice person in the chat sent me a
Speaker 2: sling blade thing. I didn't know my sound was on IM. Sorry,
Speaker 2: that is fantastic. I'll watch that later, thank you.
Speaker 3: Yes, So, yeah, see, The Perfect Perfect Neighbor easily one
Speaker 3: of like the ten best docs I saw this year
Speaker 3: for sure? Uh, dang pickups? You got anything from this month?
Speaker 3: You want to talk about?
Speaker 4: Pick up?
Speaker 2: I was about to do a whole it's what's that
Speaker 2: awful band? Uh?
Speaker 3: Real big fish for?
Speaker 2: Are you gonna do a you know, somebody's self righteous
Speaker 2: suicide or something.
Speaker 3: It's system of a down.
Speaker 2: Yeah that Dand that's what I was about to do
Speaker 2: with pick up. Anyway. I got some four K upgrades
Speaker 2: of two of my all time favorite movies, Lady from
Speaker 2: Shanghai and mouse Hunt. Good movie.
Speaker 3: I love mouse.
Speaker 2: Absolute best movie Gore Verbinski ever made.
Speaker 3: I'm glad he's coming back. He's finally got a new
Speaker 3: film coming to theaters this spring.
Speaker 2: Well, if it ain't mouse Hunt too, I've not seen it.
Speaker 2: It's supposedly amazing, by the way, so supposedly huh rave reviews. Okay,
Speaker 2: just like December supposedly a bad I did the I
Speaker 2: did the Kickstarter to support the Redwood release of Hell. Apparently,
Speaker 2: due to tariffs and other restrictions, shippings in Hell for
Speaker 2: about a month, but I got it. I picked up

Speaker 2: based comedian wants to film a set. I picked up
Speaker 2: fred Astaire red Skelton musical Three Little Words? Is it?
Speaker 3: Mourner Archive on that one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty excited about that radiance ghost of Pretty excited

Speaker 3: art from the problem. I love that take on it.

Speaker 2: Chris O'Neill. Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, I love that. The very
Speaker 2: first thing I ever did Chris O'Neil was on I'm Dangerous.

Speaker 3: Darren Navarro on there as well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, plus bonus feature the Kid Stays in the Picture documentary,
Speaker 2: in which in which Bob Evans is semi nude throughout.
Speaker 2: So I'm pretty excited. If you don't have the vinegar syndrome,
Speaker 2: or if you do have the vinegar syndrome, you should
Speaker 2: pick up the imprint version of Jade. Yeah.
Speaker 3: If you love the movie, this is by far the
Speaker 3: version to own. It is a a pretty stellar increase
Speaker 3: over the VS.
Speaker 2: Last thing will be a promo, also a promo. A
Speaker 2: book that I'm in just came out. Oh.
Speaker 3: I thought you're gonna show the other title and hide
Speaker 3: the nipples.
Speaker 2: Oh no, we did that last month.
Speaker 3: You just got it in the mail for me, right,
Speaker 3: But we.
Speaker 2: Talked about it last month. Ryan is referring to Joe
Speaker 2: Domato's The Hyena on eighty eight Films. No, this is
Speaker 2: a This is a collection of essays edited by Gloria
Speaker 2: Monty and Martin Shingler called Comebacks, The Return of the
Speaker 2: Aging Film Star. It's a collection of essays about final
Speaker 2: films of a wide range of actors, and my essay
Speaker 2: is on wood. He strowed, Oh that one nice. Yeah,
Speaker 2: So I'm really excited this is out. It came out
Speaker 2: straight in paperback, so it's a I love that we
Speaker 2: wait with the same word, all right, what about your pickups?
Speaker 3: This came out on November fifteenth, and I just got
Speaker 3: in the brand new issue of the Physical Media Advocate.
Speaker 3: This was meant for Christmas and received it after Christmas.
Speaker 3: This is I think our longest issue yet. This thing
Speaker 3: has sixty pages in it, which is insanity, completely shockful.
Speaker 3: We had a dedication to Drew Strusen there in the middle.
Speaker 3: Nice wide piece on Paul Thomas Anderson. All kinds of
Speaker 3: great stuff. Check it out. This is maybe my favorite
Speaker 3: issue we've done yet. It's pretty up there. Friend of
Speaker 3: the show that we both love and have met in person.
Speaker 2: Amazingly.
Speaker 3: Mister Laurent Omanzik from Germany just put out a book.
Speaker 3: Here is the Vegan Satanist Book that you can pick
Speaker 3: up right now. It is incredible, especially for the price.
Speaker 3: This thing was I think like twelve dollars and it's.
Speaker 2: Is it in English?
Speaker 3: It is in English.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh shit, Well I'm going to copy them.
Speaker 3: Three hundred page book, twelve bucks at Amazon dot com.
Speaker 3: Gremlin's artwork Madhouse is the same guy that always does
Speaker 3: the artwork usually that is a planet Mondo. You can
Speaker 3: check out planet dot Mondo on Instagram. He is great
Speaker 3: at what he does. And then the last thing. I
Speaker 3: am so excited about this thing. I don't think I've
Speaker 3: seen anybody except for one other person of my discord
Speaker 3: who picked this up. And I really hope more people
Speaker 3: get a chance at this. This is by Rachel Herb Netterer.
Speaker 3: This is a VHS case that's called Lost in the Static,
Speaker 3: and when you open this up, it is I love this.
Speaker 3: She took the VHS that she used to donate to
Speaker 3: take it apart for the case. She took the cover
Speaker 3: out so you can use it. And this is an
Speaker 3: entire book that she wrote on SOOV films. This is
Speaker 3: such clever packaging. It's called Lost in the Static The
Speaker 3: Untold Stories of Shot on Video Horror directed by Women.
Speaker 3: It is very very good. I got a couple stickers
Speaker 3: with it right on the inside from her. Some of
Speaker 3: the pieces that I've read on here. It is so good,
Speaker 3: like very like stuff that I've never heard of before, filmmakers,
Speaker 3: I've never heard it before. A lot of it is
Speaker 3: just capsule reviews, but I mean, when you're trying to
Speaker 3: cover as much as you possibly can in this this
Speaker 3: is again almost three hundred pages. It is such a
Speaker 3: clever way to release this, and I really hope more
Speaker 3: people check this out. I think she only had a
Speaker 3: certain number, like in the VHS packaging.
Speaker 2: And then she was selling the book by itself.
Speaker 3: But yeah, look up Rachel Herbnetterer on Instagram. That's where
Speaker 3: I got it. It was put out by Monster Press.
Speaker 3: I'm thoroughly impressed. This is such a fun.
Speaker 2: Release that's so vajazzled.
Speaker 3: Will thought of that four words into what I was
Speaker 3: talking about that and was just waiting the entire time.
Speaker 2: To state that that's pretty close.
Speaker 3: Actually, Oh man, Well, anything else you want to cover
Speaker 3: before we run through all of the announcements and then
Speaker 3: get started on the year stuff.
Speaker 2: I feel like there was something I'm really bad about
Speaker 2: long silences on your podcast.
Speaker 3: Yeah, kind of sometimes.
Speaker 2: Well, I feel like they add dramatic weight, do you.
Speaker 2: I don't like those podcasts where it's just like, you know,
Speaker 2: I like a chance to take a breath and really
Speaker 2: feel the weight of the idea exchange. Okay, you know,
Speaker 2: it was the season, the holiday season, it was the
Speaker 2: New year. It was a dark year, but it had
Speaker 2: some bright things in it. And like, who would have
Speaker 2: thought in twenty twenty six, you know, Marjorie Taylor Green
Speaker 2: would be my ally on everything not related to human rights.
Speaker 2: We're still not on the same page for human rights,
Speaker 2: but for the partisan divide, we're aligned. You know, it's
Speaker 2: a weird it's a weird time. I'm trying to be
Speaker 2: optimistic twenty twenty six. Baby, I'm hoping it's going to
Speaker 2: be a good year. I can't believe it's twenty twenty six,
Speaker 2: you know, like.
Speaker 3: Uh, des, everybody knows. I just put the link for
Speaker 3: that lost in the static books since multiple people were
Speaker 3: asking you'd check that in the chat there for afterwards.
Speaker 2: America is going to be two hundred and fifty years old,
Speaker 2: one of the youngest countries.
Speaker 1: In the world, and it shows that show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, you know, we get emotional. We have difficulty
Speaker 2: with emotional regulation. You know, that's like a teenager thing. Yeah,
Speaker 2: hope we make it.
Speaker 3: Madhouse has a question for you.
Speaker 2: Will.
Speaker 3: In Japanese culture, hatsue you made is the first dream
Speaker 3: one has in the new year. The contents of such
Speaker 3: a dream would foretell the luck of the dreamer of
Speaker 3: the ensuing year. So what'd you dream last night?
Speaker 2: Will? Well? If it came true, it'd be great. What
Speaker 2: what's your name? Whoa, hey, it's twenty twenty six. What's
Speaker 2: their name? Okay? Sorry to you don't know? Or what's
Speaker 2: their names? No? I don't remember any recent dreams. Ever
Speaker 2: since I started taking sleep gummies. I get these really
Speaker 2: vivid dreams, but I don't remember them very well. What's
Speaker 2: the question. We'll say it again.
Speaker 3: What was the first dream that you had in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty six? It's that simple.
Speaker 2: Whatever dream I have tonight, I guess. I fell asleep
Speaker 2: at like seven o'clock last night. I wish, God, I wish.
Speaker 2: Then I woke up and I finished some idearly night
Speaker 2: before Oh, oh, you know what else? I finished a
Speaker 2: movie that I started in the theater and walked out
Speaker 2: on Dangerous Animals. Good movie. It came on to shudder,
Speaker 2: and so I watched the last fifty minutes, the part
Speaker 2: that I hadn't seen. I disagree and didn't care for it.
Speaker 2: You're a shock like me, Now I did. I don't
Speaker 2: know a shock. I didn't care for it, but you
Speaker 2: know I can understand liking it. I'm gonna say that
Speaker 2: like to everybody. Yeah you're like me. Yeah, shack.
Speaker 3: He I could see that a full like if we
Speaker 3: were spending the whole ninety eight minutes with him, that
Speaker 3: movie would have been much more annoying.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Well, you get to spend quite a bit
Speaker 2: of time listening to those two fucking millennials talk about roles,
Speaker 2: dinner rolls, commitment issues. Oh my god, I wish the
Speaker 2: sharks had gotten all of them. Oh man, that's great.
Speaker 3: All right, let's get into announcements so we can get
Speaker 3: through this and talk about some of the heavier stuff.
Speaker 3: Let's start by bringing down the Hammer Hammer Films announcings
Speaker 3: that on March ninth they're putting out a four K
Speaker 3: blu ray dual format package of Spaceways from nineteen fifty three.
Speaker 3: Have you seen spaceways? I've not seen this one.
Speaker 2: I've not seen spaceways.
Speaker 3: So this is Howard Duff, known to posterity, is the
Speaker 3: definitive radio Sam Spade stars as a pioneering space engineer,
Speaker 3: embroiled and murder and espionage in this early fifties Hammer
Speaker 3: space Noir. This is gonna have a new commentary with
Speaker 3: a friend of the show, Heidi Honeycuts and Sarah Morgan.
Speaker 3: We got a new commentary on this one as well
Speaker 3: by David Flint. We've got lots of extras on here
Speaker 3: for anybody that is not paying attention to Hammer films releases.
Speaker 3: They are like setting the bar on what you should
Speaker 3: include as far as exhaustive supplements from especially from the archives,
Speaker 3: because Hammer has access to so much from the not
Speaker 3: on only just like the Hammer Archives themselves, but from
Speaker 3: British history, so much of it was properly stored and
Speaker 3: archived in a way that was accessible. They are absolutely
Speaker 3: crushing it and most of their stuff is coming out
Speaker 3: region free, so there's no excuse if you're into these
Speaker 3: films not to get them other than the price. And
Speaker 3: if that's the case, check out the standards. They're not
Speaker 3: that bad. Huge booklet on this we've got new writing
Speaker 3: by Heidi Honeycutt, Andrew Pixley, Sarah Morgan, Neill Sennard, Miriam
Speaker 3: Belenskew and Robert J. E. Simpson, plus some articles by
Speaker 3: hammer expert Wayne Kinsey. Lots of stuff on here. I'm
Speaker 3: looking forward to Tim Lucas discussing space ways and sci
Speaker 3: fi films of the period with Stephen Arbissett. That sounds
Speaker 3: like an incredible conversation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm in it. This definitely has the seal of
Speaker 2: approval from several people I respect, chiefly Tim Lucas and
Speaker 2: Heidi Honeycutt. So yeah, sweet, all right.
Speaker 3: Next up, we've got Keno lober someday putting out a
Speaker 3: blue ray of Unearthly Stranger from nineteen sixty three. This
Speaker 3: is one that is directed by John Krish. I've never
Speaker 3: seen this one. I love this poster ard on this though.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm into that. Another one that I'm unfamiliar with.
Speaker 2: But what a cast John Neville, Holy cow. Yeah. Geen
Speaker 2: Marsh we also lost this year. Geene Marsh created probably
Speaker 2: my number two favorite TV show ever Upstairs Downstairs, plus
Speaker 2: had a memorable one scene in the Changeling, and of course,
Speaker 2: was the evil bath Morda in Willow. Can you hear me? Okay,
Speaker 2: leaned back from the microphone to a company kitten. You
Speaker 2: did it.
Speaker 3: It's a little light, but it's it's pretty clear. I
Speaker 3: just want to say that I love Willow. Yeah, Adam says,
Speaker 3: this is very fun, small scale sci fi, and honestly
Speaker 3: I miss small scale sci fi. Not everything has to
Speaker 3: be the end of the world, all right. Next up
Speaker 3: is Keto eventually releasing a four K of nineteen eighty
Speaker 3: two's The Seduction. This is going to be a brand
Speaker 3: new four K master. They do not mention hd R,
Speaker 3: which they normally do on least one thing to keep
Speaker 3: an eye out on. It's the same director as Tourist Trap.
Speaker 3: This is a fun movie. This was released previously. Have
Speaker 3: you seen this one? Got Morgan Fairchild in it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I saw that back in the VHS days, so
Speaker 2: I'd be happy to see a nice restored version.
Speaker 3: Yeah, hopefully this looks great, all right. Next up, we've
Speaker 3: got fundraising campaign Christopher Bickle, who is indie filmmaker that's
Speaker 3: put out I think three films in the last six
Speaker 3: seven years something like that. They've all been getting increasingly
Speaker 3: much more fun with every release, and they've all been
Speaker 3: pretty decent for essentially being done completely on a shoe
Speaker 3: stream budget. I am very very excited to see what
Speaker 3: comes from this one. He's been hyping this up for
Speaker 3: quite some time. He is putting out a project here
Speaker 3: that he is calling this one is I'm Sorry cut
Speaker 3: to Red is the title of this film. And he
Speaker 3: put out a short film called see You on the Beach,
Speaker 3: which is a short film that is essentially a proof
Speaker 3: of concept film. He is from I believe Aaron I
Speaker 3: see you in the chat. I think he's from South Carolina,
Speaker 3: Is that right? He's from that side of the country.
Speaker 3: Does most of his shooting there, get some really fun
Speaker 3: people involved. He is making some good stuff. He's the
Speaker 3: same guy that did Potter Nose Stare in the Mission
Speaker 3: of Light last year, which was or maybe that even
Speaker 3: came out this year. He's working very very quickly. He
Speaker 3: also did Bad Girls and then The Theta Girl before that.
Speaker 3: Really great stuff. And what is interesting here is Kickstarter
Speaker 3: and indie Gogo have caused so many problems for so
Speaker 3: many creative types that Chris is trying to just write
Speaker 3: on his reputation and say, fuck these fundraising campaign sites
Speaker 3: that take all your money and try to do things
Speaker 3: to be shady to the people that are supporting you.
Speaker 3: We're just going to do it ourselves. So essentially, You
Speaker 3: can go to a site right now is cutthred dot com.
Speaker 3: You can buy a Blu ray of the of the
Speaker 3: film right now. You can pre order early access all
Speaker 3: kinds of different ways, and you can support it without
Speaker 3: giving you know, thirty percent of your cut to Kickstarter
Speaker 3: or like Indiegogo does if you if you go to
Speaker 3: support something through Indiegogo, they ask for a tip and
Speaker 3: then that goes to Indiegogo and not the creator that
Speaker 3: is trying to do the fundraising, which is super shady.
Speaker 3: So yeah, check it out if you're into it. Very
Speaker 3: fun indie filmmaker, and I think you'll.
Speaker 2: Like it cool. I was going to promote a Kickstarter later,
Speaker 2: I guess I won't.
Speaker 3: You can feel free, all right. Next up then is Predator.
Speaker 3: Bad Lands are getting a four K steel book on
Speaker 3: February seventeenth. Shockingly enough, there will also be a standard
Speaker 3: four K. Then there will be a Blu ray and
Speaker 3: a DVD of course, and when they're putting it out,
Speaker 3: there's gonna be deleted in previous scenes with optional audio commentary.
Speaker 3: A handful of those, a few featurettes, and they look
Speaker 3: to be really fun. And then there's gonna be a
Speaker 3: commentary on a Disney disc with Dan Trachenberg, which is
Speaker 3: kind of surprising. Plus a few of the producers stunt
Speaker 3: coordinators in the DP. I am liking what they're putting
Speaker 3: into this film. I'm glad this did okay at the
Speaker 3: box office. Probably not as well as they wish that
Speaker 3: it had, but I dig it, and I already see
Speaker 3: a couple of people saying that the inside artwork should
Speaker 3: be on the outside, and I gotta be honest, I disagree.
Speaker 3: I kind of like the outside artwork here. It's a
Speaker 3: little better than just the floating heads. It's actually doing something.
Speaker 2: So I didn't see this. As I mentioned to you,
Speaker 2: I have misgivings about an Emo Predator. Well, I tell
Speaker 2: you what would have made it work for me? As
Speaker 2: if they had licensed the Bruce Springsteen song, if the
Speaker 2: climactic battle was set to Bruce Springsteen's bad Lands, I
Speaker 2: would see the hell out of this movie.
Speaker 3: It's a good movie. Everybody should see it. I don't
Speaker 3: trust you, man, I know, yeah, believe me. I know
Speaker 3: I love you, but we're different.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I.
Speaker 3: Will attest to that coming soon, coming soon from Sonia.
Speaker 2: I feel like we take two steps forward, we take
Speaker 2: one step forward. And two steps back. But Oka, but
Speaker 2: we come together?
Speaker 3: Is that a euphemism?
Speaker 2: No, it's because opposite is attract.
Speaker 3: Okay, Uh. Coming soon from Sony Pictures is a four
Speaker 3: K steal book, a stand four K, a Blu ray
Speaker 3: DVD of the brand new seminal film Anaconda, which people
Speaker 3: growing up with this one. I'm sorry, uh, Jack Black,
Speaker 3: Paul Rudd and Anaconda. You can pre order it now
Speaker 3: if this is your thing. I did not see it.
Speaker 2: But how are you talking to shit?
Speaker 3: Because I saw the trailer.
Speaker 2: I thought the trailer would fine. Look now, I don't
Speaker 2: know if you're old enough. I'm a little older than you.
Speaker 2: But the original Ana Conda, Yes, did you see that
Speaker 2: in the theater? Because I saw that in a theater. Bruh.
Speaker 3: I was ten years old when that came out.
Speaker 2: Oh so the theater, ice Cube, Carrie were John Voyd
Speaker 2: Owen Wilson. That's John Voyd's best performance in thirty.
Speaker 3: It's giving an unhinged performance of that.
Speaker 2: The Ana Conda was giving the unhinged performance because of
Speaker 2: the jaw. Yeah, I got okay, there are extults with
Speaker 2: the pen and his throat.
Speaker 3: I love that he used an idiot for like twenty
Speaker 3: seven seconds and they're like chrick Stalts in Anacona.
Speaker 2: Anaconda was awesome. I actually had misgivings about that this
Speaker 2: new one because it's too straightforward a comedy. I'll probably
Speaker 2: see it on streaming, but the original Anaconda choice.
Speaker 3: There are there are a shocking number of shots in
Speaker 3: that first Anaconda, which is literally just the camera shooting
Speaker 3: over to John Voight and him making the craziest face.
Speaker 2: You know. It was funny because there's the whole joke
Speaker 2: in Tim Burton's ed Wood right where Benzentalafrey I was
Speaker 2: playing Wars and Wells and he's talking to Edward about
Speaker 2: how he's trying to make Touch of Evil and the
Speaker 2: studio wants Trumpton Heston to play a Mexican and then
Speaker 2: then Ana Conda comes out around the same time with
Speaker 2: John Voight. What is he supposed to be from Brazil,
Speaker 2: Brigantina or something. It's the best.
Speaker 3: The good old days, you know.
Speaker 2: And Carrie were should have been a bigger star. I
Speaker 2: was so upset when Vinegar Syndrome put out the Prophecy
Speaker 2: one through three but didn't include Carrie Werer's great work
Speaker 2: in Prophecy four and five. Yep, when are you going
Speaker 2: to get those?
Speaker 3: Probably not now?
Speaker 2: Well, Anaconda, I don't have a problem with it.
Speaker 3: I mean i'd see it. Yeah, all right, we'll just
Speaker 3: got very happy. February ninth, there's a Blu ray coming
Speaker 3: still in the UK from screen band of John Wayne's
Speaker 3: Circus World with Rita Hayworth and Claudia Cardinale. This.
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on with the rights.
Speaker 3: This does not have an HD release here in the state,
Speaker 3: so it seems like this is the only way to
Speaker 3: get this on Blu Ray. Tell us about Circus World.
Speaker 2: I cannot wait. What do you get when you cross
Speaker 2: John Wayne, Claudia Cardinal and Rita Hayworth and a bunch
Speaker 2: of European jugglobs a circus? Yes, it's fantastic. Rest in peace,
Speaker 2: Claudia card Now, I love her.
Speaker 3: She's another one lost this year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and one of the few European artists to die
Speaker 2: who actually was not problematic as far as I know,
Speaker 2: until the chat starts coming at me. Right, Actually she
Speaker 2: hated the romani butif well, we were talking about romani
Speaker 2: moth right, good moths they're called now, but uh, Anyway,
Speaker 2: Circus World's actually super fun. It's like three hours long
Speaker 2: and John Wayne runs a freakingcern. Dude, what do you
Speaker 2: want me to tell you? If that sounds good to you,
Speaker 2: then you are gonna love this movie. And if you're Ryan,
Speaker 2: you won't.
Speaker 3: There we go two steps forward or two steps back, and.
Speaker 2: This is great. Seriously, there's like the whole backstory of
Speaker 2: tragedy involving trapezes and whatnot. Yeah, is that what they're called?
Speaker 2: When they're a plural trapezes?
Speaker 3: Trap trip? Those are trapezoids.
Speaker 2: You're a trapezoid? What does that even mean?
Speaker 3: All right, let's go to our next one, which I'm
Speaker 3: curious if you have thoughts on this one. Uh. The
Speaker 3: band five to eight is putting out a Blu Ray
Speaker 3: DVD Combo of five eight or sorry, weirdo, the Story
Speaker 3: of five eight. This is available now. You can get
Speaker 3: this on their website. They've got the feature documentary. It's
Speaker 3: a little over one hundred minutes long. They've got the
Speaker 3: cover autograph. If you're into the band five eight and
Speaker 3: get that. There is a new seventy six minute dot
Speaker 3: on the band featuring the best of Q and AS
Speaker 3: from a year of touring. Three audio commentaries with a
Speaker 3: bunch of people from the band and X members, some
Speaker 3: deleted scenes and all that stuff. Have you ever been
Speaker 3: into five to eight?
Speaker 2: Will never heard of them?
Speaker 3: Where they it's a small punk band? What small punk band?
Speaker 2: I believe? Small punk band?
Speaker 3: Yeah, And now we got everybody in the chat making
Speaker 3: six seven jokes. Goot enough of that for my ten
Speaker 3: year old I have eight.
Speaker 2: Well, now it's starting to sound familiar. What's the song?
Speaker 2: I shouldn't that. I honestly have named three songs right.
Speaker 3: I'm not wearing their shirt. I don't know name three
Speaker 3: junk Carboner modes, Black Christmas shoot.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 3: Next up we got some artwork reveals and some date
Speaker 3: reveals and all that other fun stuff for the film
Speaker 3: Ben hur coming on February seventeenth. We are getting a
Speaker 3: four K steal book with this fairly classic cover art
Speaker 3: on the steel book, and it is going to get
Speaker 3: a standard four K on the same day. And this
Speaker 3: will look like that, And this is going to have
Speaker 3: a Brandy respiration of the film. It's gonna have Dolby
Speaker 3: Vision with HDR, and then it's gonna have a Dolby
Speaker 3: at most audio track. We'll also have two brand new features,
Speaker 3: been Her, Anatomy of an Epic and The Cinematography of Scale.
Speaker 3: I do believe that this has dropped off a couple
Speaker 3: of the extras that were on the old Blu ray,
Speaker 3: and it's got pretty much everything else. So Unfortunately, if
Speaker 3: this is like one of your favorite movies all of
Speaker 3: all time, you might be compelled to hold on to
Speaker 3: that Blue. But this will probably be a great looking
Speaker 3: for k.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm still holding on to an old DVD set
Speaker 2: that includes the original nineteen twenty five been Her. Yep, Yeah,
Speaker 2: which is fantastic and I hope it gets its own
Speaker 2: release sometime. I tout it every well, cause like, who's
Speaker 2: going to do a deluge release of a lesser known
Speaker 2: silent movie.
Speaker 3: Well, Classic Clicks Deaf Crocodile.
Speaker 2: Okay, fine, which William Wyler was second unit director on. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I believe anyway, Yeah, the Paul Berman still got
Speaker 2: that dis set with the old been Her, but I
Speaker 2: love ben Her. Paul Berman says Ben They, Well, because
Speaker 2: it's spelled h u r, it could be ben Z.
Speaker 3: Well, Paul actually said what about ben him? Ben They,
Speaker 3: and then Colton says, well, I mean it has kind
Speaker 3: of Been Gay, Super Being Gay. All right, On the
Speaker 3: same day, February seventeenth, we are also getting a four
Speaker 3: K release of All the President's Men.
Speaker 2: In the Steel Book.
Speaker 3: Anyways, if you are not into Steel Books, this is
Speaker 3: the standard four K that's coming out on that same day.
Speaker 2: I'm freaking Robert Redford died. I didn't think that could happen.
Speaker 3: Yep, yep, yeah, same thing. We got a four K
Speaker 3: restoration of the film, HDR presentation of the movie, and
Speaker 3: then two new extras. We got All the President's Men
Speaker 3: in the film and its influence and Woodward and Bernstein
Speaker 3: a journalism masterclass, either one of those two that you're
Speaker 3: after there, sir, of the not the dudes. The two
Speaker 3: releases coming on the same day, All the President's Men
Speaker 3: and Ben hur both Yeah, okay, all right. March tenth,
Speaker 3: Blu Ray coming in the US from Alliance, which is
Speaker 3: Mill Creek. They just changed their name of the Chase
Speaker 3: from nineteen sixty six. Speaking of fairly large cast, We've
Speaker 3: got Robert Redford, Marlon Brando, Brando Brando, Jane Fonda, Arthur
Speaker 3: penn All in this movie. It's supposed to be great.
Speaker 3: When Slubbert reeves escapes from prison. It upsets the folks
Speaker 3: in the nearby town of Tarle, Texas. Sheriff wants to
Speaker 3: capture Reeves alive, which puts them in the opposition to
Speaker 3: many of the townspeople who have resorted to mob justice.
Speaker 3: I think this got Was it a Twilight Time release earlier?
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's what I have nice it was in that
Speaker 2: to make a call back to a previous show. It
Speaker 2: was in that huge box that was delivered to the
Speaker 2: abandoned house, the box floor the going out of business
Speaker 2: twilight and sale where I bought half their catalog, not
Speaker 2: realizing that they would all be upgraded systematic.
Speaker 3: Is it an upgrade if it's Mill Creek.
Speaker 2: No, I'll stick with the Twilight Time for now. But
Speaker 2: this is a good movie. Good I like it.
Speaker 3: Next April seventh, we've got Kimstim releasing a film Sanatorium
Speaker 3: under the Sign of the hour Glass from twenty twenty four.
Speaker 3: This is a name that many people are gonna recognize.
Speaker 3: And the thing here, there is no indication that this
Speaker 3: is not going to be an Ocean release, So remember
Speaker 3: Kimstim is an Ocean partner label. Now, this absolutely could
Speaker 3: be released with the slipcover if that's your thing. It
Speaker 3: will be the exact same disc. But this is the
Speaker 3: wide release coming of this one, and it's by the
Speaker 3: Quay Brothers. This one is going to be it's produced
Speaker 3: by Christopher Nolan, So if you want that name attached
Speaker 3: to it, congratulations. There is going to be some extras
Speaker 3: on here. But this is I believe their first film.
Speaker 3: Was it twenty years after the last feature. I've never
Speaker 3: seen anything from them? Will so have you? Is this
Speaker 3: somebody that you've dove into a lot?
Speaker 2: No, no, No, don't know them.
Speaker 3: I know a lot of friends that are very, very
Speaker 3: excited about them as filmmakers, So I certainly need to
Speaker 3: look into them more because yeah, not seen a single one.
Speaker 3: I know that over on the Deaf Crocodile Discord they
Speaker 3: get mentioned.
Speaker 2: Quite a few times.
Speaker 3: Oh Colton is excited for Sanatorium Love the has adaptation.
Speaker 3: All right, next up?
Speaker 2: You know what? I've seen this come across my streaming
Speaker 2: service algorithms and on big online behemoths, and I just
Speaker 2: at the moment that you pulled it up on the screen,
Speaker 2: I just got the pun of the title. It didn't
Speaker 2: occur to me until this moment.
Speaker 3: Oh that is so fun. So on January twentieth. There
Speaker 3: is a Blu ray and probably a DVD coming from
Speaker 3: Decal of Fackham Hall. That is a film that just
Speaker 3: came out in twenty twenty five. It is a spoof
Speaker 3: film that crosses Downtown Abbey with airplane down Abbey.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I didn't mean that. I was just trying to read
Speaker 3: quickly Downton Abbey with airplane and follows a lovable.
Speaker 2: Is that like a British MTV host.
Speaker 3: It's hosted by Carson Fortnite. Oh, that was a super
Speaker 3: dub joke.
Speaker 2: Of MTV just announced that they would go They would
Speaker 2: no longer air music videos.
Speaker 3: MTV does not exist anymore. That was what they did. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it is completely gone. They played video killed the radio
Speaker 3: Star and took it all down.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what and then we can talk about facamah. Okay.
Speaker 2: The thing that I feel the sorriest what is what
Speaker 2: am I trying to say? The thing that I the
Speaker 2: single the single thing that I feel saddest about millennials
Speaker 2: and gins z's and jen Alpha's not experiencing is MTV.
Speaker 2: And when I talk about MTV and classes on you know,
Speaker 2: media history and so on, ZRs and alphas like all
Speaker 2: they've ever known is ridiculousness. They don't, they don't, they
Speaker 2: don't even they don't even know the real world, much
Speaker 2: less freaking turning on your TV at any time you
Speaker 2: and watching freaking Chuck d take down the system, right,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean? And and I'm you know,
Speaker 2: I don't know if you're old enough, but I'm just
Speaker 2: old enough to have grown up on MTV before Carson Daily,
Speaker 2: right before, because the beginning of the end really was uh,
Speaker 2: total requests live yep, right when they just let some
Speaker 2: bunch of thirteen year old idiot kid like who are
Speaker 2: now elder millennials. I guess request in sync over and over,
Speaker 2: but we had had Banger's Ball and you OMTV raps
Speaker 2: and one hundred and twenty minutes an Alternative Nation with
Speaker 2: former liberal Kennedy. It's just sad I miss it, oh Kennedy.
Speaker 2: So here's what I have to say, fuck them all.
Speaker 2: Back to your advertisement for this British spoof.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna mention that Colton said at their house they
Speaker 3: call it downtown Arby's. So this is a spoof that
Speaker 3: crosses downtown Abbey with airplane and follows Lovable pickpocket as
Speaker 3: he lands a job at a unique English manor house.
Speaker 3: He quickly rises through the ranks and forms a forbidden
Speaker 3: romance until an unexpected murder occurs. I saw this in
Speaker 3: the theater. Did not love this. It was an attempt
Speaker 3: at a very frenetic airplane, like laugh every five seconds.
Speaker 2: The hard part is that, inspector, I speak Cockney.
Speaker 3: The only reason that airplane works is because you have
Speaker 3: to you. I mean, there's so many jokes that land,
Speaker 3: uh that it is like genuinely great with this one,
Speaker 3: Like one out of every eight or.
Speaker 2: Nine jokes actually landed.
Speaker 3: So it's it's it's a higher ratio than many, but
Speaker 3: still not high enough. I feel very weird that Tom
Speaker 3: Felton and Thomas and Mackenzie were in this. Neither one
Speaker 3: of those were faces I expected, And uh yeah, check
Speaker 3: it out if you want that.
Speaker 2: Blu RAYIDPID recommendation.
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to recommend it. I'm just being honest.
Speaker 3: That's my job.
Speaker 2: Only every eighth joke lands if.
Speaker 3: You are into twelve and a half percent of jokes
Speaker 3: being funny. Oh god, that was that was pretty good.
Speaker 3: April seventh, Anchor Bay Entered is releasing a Blu Ray
Speaker 3: of twenty twenty three's Artificial Flowers. This is set entirely
Speaker 3: during a single evening in a sleek la high rise.
Speaker 3: Two accomplished writers are in the film. They find themselves
Speaker 3: entwined in a verbal and emotional tug of war. As
Speaker 3: wine flows and the city lights glow around them. Their
Speaker 3: conversation quickly spirals beyond casual chatter. What begins is creative brainstorming,
Speaker 3: becomes a raw excavation of their darkest secrets, past traumas
Speaker 3: and fractured psyches.
Speaker 2: And I have no idea what this is. Never heard
Speaker 2: of it. Well, there's one thing I know a lot about.
Speaker 2: It's fractured psyches.

Speaker 3: fun movie. The the house itself and this was a
Speaker 3: very interesting setting for it.
Speaker 2: Now, this is not a remake of the Korean film.
Speaker 3: That is not called The Housemaid. Isn't that the Housemaiden?
Speaker 2: I don't, I don't know you got me all messed up. Now, Well,

Speaker 3: Uh it is Brandon Skleener and he is their scleener.
Speaker 3: He's pretty intimidating in this movie. I'm not sure.
Speaker 2: I'm thinking of the other guy with no lips, but
Speaker 2: he's really high. Which one everybody loves him? The hip
Speaker 2: Man Raymond, the hit Man?
Speaker 3: Oh uh uh oh god, Glenn Glenn Powell, that's his name.
Speaker 2: He just the He was on Saturday and Live and
Speaker 2: they did a sketch in which one of the cast
Speaker 2: members does the whole bit is doing an impression of
Speaker 2: the stand up Convenient Sebastian Merrit Merrit Mariciano, you know.
Speaker 3: No, oh, like mana Scalo or something like that.
Speaker 2: And I was like, I don't know who this guy is.
Speaker 2: So I looked him up and holy damn, it was
Speaker 2: a perfect impression of that guy. But that's not Brandon's scleener.
Speaker 2: Who's Brandon Scleaner.
Speaker 3: I don't know the Park Chan Wook film you were
Speaker 3: talking about as the Handmaiden, not the House.
Speaker 2: I'm not talking about the Park Chen Wuke film. I'm
Speaker 2: talking about the Korean film from the sixties.
Speaker 3: Which the Park chend Wook film is a remake.
Speaker 2: Up, it is a remake of it. Okay, it is
Speaker 2: The Handmaiden. Okay, okay, okay, this is not this is
Speaker 2: the House made.
Speaker 3: This is an adaptation of a modern book.
Speaker 2: A book, yes, a modern book, a contemporary book. Who
Speaker 2: is Brandon's scleener. That's that's my question for the evening.
Speaker 3: I love it. Tyler said, he's the third scolar brother.
Speaker 3: Uh oh, He's the antagonist in Drop. He's the date
Speaker 3: in that film that came out this year.
Speaker 2: Did you.
Speaker 3: I know you didn't see Drop, but I'm sure you
Speaker 3: saw the trailer.
Speaker 2: So he's new. He's an up and comer.
Speaker 3: He's an up and comer. He's quite intimidating in this movie.
Speaker 3: Is this film also getting a four K? Here in
Speaker 3: the US? It is coming into digitbook. You can check
Speaker 3: that out. It's not dated, but you can pre order
Speaker 3: on Amazon.
Speaker 2: We were going to talk about it later, but we'll
Speaker 2: just cover it now. There.
Speaker 3: It is The Housemaid.
Speaker 2: Check it out.
Speaker 3: The Perfect Gamble starring David Rquette, and what looks to
Speaker 3: be either terrible photoshop or ruthless AI. This is coming
Speaker 3: on January thirteenth, also from Well Go USA. Seems to
Speaker 3: be a rough period for them, Blu ray and DVD.
Speaker 2: Are you sure that's David Arkett on the cover and
Speaker 2: not Danny Abacuser.
Speaker 3: No, I'm not sure.
Speaker 2: I'm not.
Speaker 3: I very well could be wrong. Fresh out of prison,
Speaker 3: high rolling gamblers Charlie Felix risk everything to build an
Speaker 3: underground casino. As business booms, Charlie falls for their newest hire, Sorria,
Speaker 3: a sharp witted woman with a dangerous pass.
Speaker 2: I can't see.
Speaker 3: My eyes are killing me today because I've been on
Speaker 3: the computer for like nineteen hours straight. But when the
Speaker 3: Russian mafia takes notice of their success, the stakes are
Speaker 3: raised as their dream turns into a deadly game where
Speaker 3: every bet could be their last.
Speaker 2: I love it. I kind of want to see this.
Speaker 3: All right, Let's get into SEMOSI in if you have to.
Speaker 2: Sh out of prison. I don't think you're a high
Speaker 2: roller anymore.
Speaker 3: It depends were you and gen pop.
Speaker 2: Daved Arquette. I'm assuming probably all.
Speaker 3: Right, let's go to this big one in twenty twenty six,
Speaker 3: Warner Brothers putting out a four K of speed Racer
Speaker 3: from two thousand and eight. This is one of the
Speaker 3: most coveted four k's for a lot of people for
Speaker 3: the last handful of years, because the colors from this
Speaker 3: are going to make your eyeballs bleed. Do you like
Speaker 3: speed Racer from two thousand and eight?
Speaker 2: I haven't seen it yet. However, one of my students
Speaker 2: this past semester in my Cult Film's class did a
Speaker 2: project in which he argued that speed Racer is going
Speaker 2: to be considered one of the next great cult classics.
Speaker 2: So I was like, well, I guess I'll see it.
Speaker 3: It is wildly stylistic. It is something that is definitely
Speaker 3: going to be a big deal for a lot of
Speaker 3: people that grew up on this. The final scene in
Speaker 3: this or the final act, I guess of this is
Speaker 3: pretty damn impressive, and it's going to look great. That
Speaker 3: being said, keep in mind, this is really only going
Speaker 3: to be like a two K upscale and then with
Speaker 3: HDR applied, it's not going to be a proper full
Speaker 3: four K release.
Speaker 2: Wonder this shit I'm dealing with right now. When I
Speaker 2: move my camera, we'll see here.
Speaker 3: I will make that better?
Speaker 2: What up, Doug? I don't even know what he wants.
Speaker 2: I do know what he wants. He wants his pills.
Speaker 2: My dog has anxiety, so he takes a shit ton
Speaker 2: of Gabba Penn and Zoloft.
Speaker 3: This sounds like two characters from Yo Gabba Gabba.
Speaker 2: I'm like, it's a bully. He's like sixty seven pounds.
Speaker 2: What's he got to be anxious about. Ain't nobody fucking
Speaker 2: with him?
Speaker 3: Ronnie's excited though, all right, that is speed racer. I'm
Speaker 3: sad that Will hasn't seen it. I have a feeling
Speaker 3: you'd actually like this one quite a bit.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I feel like I should take a bunch of
Speaker 2: trucker speed first, like a whole bottle of yellow jackets.
Speaker 2: Please don't.
Speaker 3: I would really like you to survive this year.
Speaker 2: Oh man. I used to take yellow jackets every day.
Speaker 2: My scalp felt like bugs were crawling on it all
Speaker 2: the time. Oh boy, Oh I used to be into drugs.
Speaker 3: I still am, but I.
Speaker 2: Used to be.
Speaker 3: Conra Holt said speed Racers played at midnight at the
Speaker 3: Vista this month.
Speaker 2: That'd be fun. Yeah, that'd be cool. Although I gotta
Speaker 2: tell you I was just talking.
Speaker 3: The matrix is obviously my arm.
Speaker 2: Wow, Okay, I was just talking to somebody about this
Speaker 2: the other day. You know, I'm very pleased to live
Speaker 2: near an Alamo draft house and yeah, all that stuff.
Speaker 2: But like all the movies I want to see, the
Speaker 2: showtimes are like nine thirty ten o'clock, and I can't
Speaker 2: do that shit anymore. Man. I can start a movie
Speaker 2: at ten o'clock if I'm at home, knowing full well
Speaker 2: I'm gonna fall asleep and finish it the next money.
Speaker 2: But I can't. I can't drive to a public place
Speaker 2: and interact with denizens of the night.
Speaker 3: I I don't know if you've noticed the same thing
Speaker 3: or if it's not the same over there. I have
Speaker 3: been very excited to see a lot of bands that
Speaker 3: I grew up loving that are still touring or touring again,
Speaker 3: are also old like me, and have changed to only
Speaker 3: have like one opener and the show starts at like
Speaker 3: six thirty. And suddenly bands that used to go on
Speaker 3: stage at like eleven are now going on stage at
Speaker 3: like eight, and I'm so excited about that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's how it's going. Like last month, I went
Speaker 2: to see the Melvins and Red Cross started at eight
Speaker 2: over by ten thirty. That's the way to do it, guys.
Speaker 3: It's a good time.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, pack it in two and a half hours,
Speaker 2: get home, call it a day. All right.
Speaker 3: We're gonna talk about these after and time for oc in.
Speaker 3: It's my round up of last year.
Speaker 2: Oka. Well, I didn't get an opportunity to make a graphic.
Speaker 3: You did. You had a full year to do it,
Speaker 3: all right. Uh First up, the VSU for this month
Speaker 3: is tank Girl, Lori petty and uh I a bunch
Speaker 3: of I.
Speaker 2: Don't like that they gave her ed great movie, but
Speaker 2: I don't know about that cover art.
Speaker 3: Dude, is this one any better?
Speaker 2: I mean, seriously, though, go back to it. Yeah, that's
Speaker 2: not what she looks like, not even a little bit. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I don't know. I mean, not that it has to
Speaker 2: be photo realistic, but that's weird.
Speaker 3: It is weird quite a bit. Rachel Talle directs this
Speaker 3: and I I personally I loved taking Oh maybe maybe
Speaker 3: I've always said I might be wrong. I'm also tired.
Speaker 2: Well, like Rachel, I like that.
Speaker 3: Either way, I can't read. Who cares? Take Girls Great?
Speaker 3: I think people should check it out. It is a
Speaker 3: very fun movie. You got some other big names in this.
Speaker 3: Youve got Malcolm McDowell, you got Iced Tea, Naomi Watts,
Speaker 3: some interesting extras here. So there is a commentary with
Speaker 3: Christin Lopez, who was just on my channel in the
Speaker 3: last month. We got a new featurette with Rachel and
Speaker 3: Gary Baseman. We've got a new interview with Lori Petty,
Speaker 3: We've got a new interview with a production designer, new
Speaker 3: interview with one of the other actors with the casting director.
Speaker 3: A bunch of new interviews. However, there was another commentary
Speaker 3: with Rachel and Lori Petty that was on the previous
Speaker 3: Shout release that does not appear to be poured it
Speaker 3: over here, so you might want to hold out of
Speaker 3: that one.
Speaker 2: It's on Umbrella though, right.
Speaker 3: It is on the Umbrella release.
Speaker 2: Yes, so I have the Umbrella release, but basically in
Speaker 2: addition to being a four K.
Speaker 3: Upgrade, a bunch of new interviews too.
Speaker 2: All the new stuff, although a forty page book. Well
Speaker 2: that it has a forty page book also, but it's
Speaker 2: different people, right, So I guess in addition to two
Speaker 2: copies of Jade, you should get two copies of tank
Speaker 2: Girl if you.
Speaker 3: If you don't want any more, shelf space double dip
Speaker 3: on everything. Uh so, tank Girl, how do you feel
Speaker 3: about Tank Girl? You haven't said anything yet.
Speaker 2: I haven't let you get it out. I like tink Girl.
Speaker 2: You told me I didn't talk enough the last couple
Speaker 2: of times. So now I'm like over correcting, like, oh,
Speaker 2: I tell you all the time, I try to get energy.
Speaker 2: I don't will anymore. You so so low energy. So
Speaker 2: here I am.
Speaker 3: You just didn't like that because I said thank you
Speaker 3: to somebody else who said the same thing.
Speaker 2: Content Oh somebody? Uh okay, do you want a trance
Speaker 2: story from Rando? Uh no, tell the story? We're allowed to.
Speaker 2: I don't think.
Speaker 3: Yeah, sure you can, it's up to.
Speaker 2: Us if it is to be, it's up to me.
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on Tank Girl, that's not it's good. It
Speaker 2: is good.
Speaker 3: I'm not saying it's not. I'm not arguing with you.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you. Here's for anybody who's unfamiliar with
Speaker 2: Tank Girl. I was in college nineteen ninety six, nineteen
Speaker 2: ninety seven, right, and when this film came out on
Speaker 2: video at the videostroy work. Now I'm not for whatever reason,
Speaker 2: because it wasn't something I did on purpose it wasn't
Speaker 2: something I shied away from. But for whatever reason, most
Speaker 2: of my friend group were in what was then called
Speaker 2: the GLBT community now different or but and every especially
Speaker 2: every lesbian that I knew.
Speaker 3: Part of the pun here and this is not meant
Speaker 3: is a euphemism, but it's not going to come out
Speaker 3: any way.
Speaker 2: That is not like that, Ronnie has you pegged wow phrasing?
Speaker 2: That was why I yeah, uh, I'm just trying to say.
Speaker 2: Of course Sidner would call this a waste of time,
Speaker 2: but I just want to say when Tank Girl came out,
Speaker 2: every lesbian I knew lost their minds. They were so
Speaker 2: excited to have a movie that spoke to them, and
Speaker 2: I was so happy to be introduced to it in
Speaker 2: that way. You know, great comic source material and uh,
Speaker 2: and the movie is a lot of fun. Yeah, Ryan,
Speaker 2: you're putting people in awkward positions. Me particularly, that is enough.
Speaker 2: Take Girl.
Speaker 3: Let's go to the next one.
Speaker 2: Oh oh, you're gonna cowtow to Sibner? Is that what
Speaker 2: you're gonna do? Yes? Yes, I am wow. Yeah. This
Speaker 2: is why the country is in the state it's in
Speaker 2: because no one has the spine to stand up.
Speaker 3: Don't put the cart before the horse. Are there any
Speaker 3: other farm animal puns that we can make?
Speaker 2: I recommend Tanker.
Speaker 3: The other title from VS this is coming from the
Speaker 3: mainline of YS this month is Terror Firmer from nineteen
Speaker 3: ninety eight, the trauma film Terror Firmer. This is coming
Speaker 3: on four K from the original Ocen, which is wild.
Speaker 3: This is going to be a three disc set with
Speaker 3: a just an absolute shit ton of extras, tons of commentaries,
Speaker 3: tons of retrospective interviews, forty eight minute brand new retrospective documentary,
Speaker 3: new featurette detailing the premie You're of Terra Firmer in
Speaker 3: January of two thousand, like all kinds of stuff, so
Speaker 3: much stuff that it is crazy when you go look
Speaker 3: at the website. This is one of their most stacked
Speaker 3: releases in a while. This is also going to have
Speaker 3: a forty page book with essays by Matthew Klickstein, Alex Gooder,
Speaker 3: and Heather Drain Love Heather Drain.
Speaker 2: I showed this as a not in glass. I showed
Speaker 2: this just as a campus event, and about a third
Speaker 2: of the audience was like, this is the greatest movie
Speaker 2: I've ever seen, and the other two thirds of the
Speaker 2: audience left. I loved Terror firmer and you know this
Speaker 2: is Merchants of Death. Still waiting for the ultimate Trauma release,
Speaker 2: but this is great.
Speaker 3: We'll see if it happens. It seems like they're making
Speaker 3: their way through most of them. Next up, speaking to
Speaker 3: Merchants of Death, VS is releasing as part of their
Speaker 3: main line, a four K release of Dario Argento's Phantom
Speaker 3: of the Opera. Now we'll I know you got lots
Speaker 3: of thoughts on this one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's fun. You know it's been maligned, not completely unjustly.
Speaker 2: What was this? This was the follow up to Stendall Syndrome, right, yep.
Speaker 2: But I thought it was cool. It's funny, it's atmospheric.
Speaker 2: It's another banger performance by Ossi Argento, who we're going
Speaker 2: to hear from again just a moment later today. Yeah.
Speaker 2: I would not put this in the top tier, but
Speaker 2: I would not put this in the bottom tier. This
Speaker 2: kind of mid put it around maybe slightly below Trauma. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, but I'm happy. I'm happy to get rid
Speaker 2: of my old Scorpion Blu Ray and take this upgrade.
Speaker 3: And they poured it over the extras. You got the
Speaker 3: commentary at Troy Howarth and Nathaniel Thompson. That's pretty good
Speaker 3: on this one. You've got a lot of interviews that
Speaker 3: run some of those previous releases. This is going to
Speaker 3: be a solid looking release. It'll look great, just not
Speaker 3: one of his best.
Speaker 2: I know that, and I sympathize with this view. I
Speaker 2: know that you always prefer something new that you've never
Speaker 2: seen before than an upgrade. Sure, but as somebody who's
Speaker 2: completely out of her own, yes, I'm happy to get upgrades.
Speaker 2: And in fact, there's a couple upgrades that we'll talk
Speaker 2: about later that I'm super pleased about. But yes, Family Opera,
Speaker 2: I like it good.
Speaker 3: Next up one I'm quite excited for. We got a
Speaker 3: Blu ray release coming as part of the VS main
Speaker 3: line of Made in Hong Kong Volume two. This is
Speaker 3: going to include New York Chinatown. It will include best
Speaker 3: of the Best, and it will include Final Justice. Lots
Speaker 3: of extras listed here. I have unfortunately not seen any
Speaker 3: of these yet. A lot of these have been discoveries
Speaker 3: for me, so thanks to Vinegar Syndrome for those. We
Speaker 3: had a forty page book coming on this with essays
Speaker 3: by John Dixon, Travis Woods, and Sam Degan. New York Chinatown,
Speaker 3: will have a commentary with Kenneth Bronson. There's a new
Speaker 3: interview with Melvin Wong, new interview with Long Poissan That's
Speaker 3: of the best love of commentary with Sam Degan, a
Speaker 3: new interview with Herman Yao, an interview with Tony Lunghanghwa,
Speaker 3: an interview with Bens Kong, and then new visual essay
Speaker 3: by our friend miss Erica Schultz. Congrats Erica. This is
Speaker 3: gonna be Kento pop in Hong Kong cinema, a golden age,
Speaker 3: a multimedia stardom and I am dying to see that.
Speaker 3: And then final Justice. We'll have a commentary with one
Speaker 3: and only Frank Jang in a new interview with Alman Wang. Yeah,
Speaker 3: this looks like a really solid release. I'm very excited
Speaker 3: for this.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I enjoyed the first box set and
Speaker 2: these these are all films that I have not seen,
Speaker 2: but I have on like lists of movies to watch.
Speaker 3: So yeah, it's perfect timing. Yeah, let's go to our
Speaker 3: next one. They have made the second version of their
Speaker 3: Vinegar Zene Drome available. This is their paperback zine that
Speaker 3: you can check out. This is limited to only fifteen
Speaker 3: hundred units. There is a meet the VS staffer of
Speaker 3: portion on EV who everybody used to get emails from,
Speaker 3: and now she's not the only customer service rep anymore,
Speaker 3: so everybody gets emails from other people. There is gonna
Speaker 3: be a piece by Curtis, who's been on the show
Speaker 3: here before. There's an interview with Hot Love, who does
Speaker 3: a bunch of the slipcover designs and has worked with
Speaker 3: a bunch of other companies including Deaf Crocodile and did
Speaker 3: the layout for Miss Erica Schultz book Love Hot Love's work.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be a piece on CAT three and introduction
Speaker 3: of the Extreme Cinema Hong Kong by miss Sam Degan,
Speaker 3: and then the interview with Sam Digastrina full of hell. Yeah,
Speaker 3: looks like a really solid lineup.
Speaker 2: Love it. Okay, I didn't check out the first scene.
Speaker 2: I guess this might be worth looking at.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's pretty, I mean less than ten bucks not bad.
Speaker 3: Vinegar Syndrome has added a few new things as far
Speaker 3: as merch. We've got this Vinegar Syndrome Beanie Volume two.
Speaker 3: There's a Behind the Green Door soundtrack CD, and then
Speaker 3: this long sleeved tea. But my big thing, I like
Speaker 3: the design I just hope before they send it out
Speaker 3: to everybody they properly spell vinegar syndrome.
Speaker 2: I thought it was on purpose. I thought it was
Speaker 2: like some Cockney thing.
Speaker 3: God, I hope not. It's vender car.
Speaker 2: Maybe it's a Norse thing, some kind of Nordic heritage,
Speaker 2: I mean, like a beard.
Speaker 3: Well they called it Okham's razor.
Speaker 2: So oh there's boobies. I can't wear that to work.
Speaker 3: No, the boobies are covered, there's no nipples. Tyler says
Speaker 3: they should leave it like that too. I really hope that.
Speaker 2: It'll be worth more if you get the misspelled.
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, yeah, not great venderger syndrome. All right, let's
Speaker 3: talk about some partner label announcements, because there are a
Speaker 3: ton of them. There's five, Yeah, that first off, giant
Speaker 3: number to start the year.
Speaker 2: It's more than a score, it's true.
Speaker 3: On top of that, I had not counted in the
Speaker 3: longest time they have more than forty active partner labels.
Speaker 3: Now more than forty.
Speaker 2: Thoughts they must offer him a great deal. I don't know,
Speaker 2: all right, I mean it shows they're hustling, you know.
Speaker 2: If it works in terms of me as a as
Speaker 2: a consumer, it's you know, I get a lot of
Speaker 2: shit for not watching new or not. First of all,
Speaker 2: I get a lot of shit for not watching new movies.
Speaker 2: And then when I do watch new movies, I get
Speaker 2: a lot of shit because I don't watch the right
Speaker 2: new movies. Right, Like, like last time I talked about
Speaker 2: watching the Accountant Franchise and I got some shit, was like, well,
Speaker 2: you'd find good movies if you didn't watch those movies. Well,
Speaker 2: these partner labels are how I watch newer films like
Speaker 2: real And I.
Speaker 3: Let the record state before he could continues on, nobody
Speaker 3: said that.
Speaker 2: To will last time? Look back through the chat. Nobody
Speaker 2: has time for that. Well that happened. Don't don't gaslight Ryan.
Speaker 3: I don't. I do not recall a single person saying
Speaker 3: that last.
Speaker 2: Well, just because you didn't recall it doesn't it wasn't
Speaker 2: about you, So it didn't pierce you to your core.
Speaker 3: Because I lead all this with an ego you're in.
Speaker 2: Oh well, anyway, my point is, I mean, it doesn't.
Speaker 2: It didn't bother me. I just like I clocked it
Speaker 2: and was like, well, you know this is how I watch. Yeah,
Speaker 2: when I want to turn my brain off, I watch
Speaker 2: the Accountant. I'm not judging contemporary movies by what like
Speaker 2: Hollywood Studios puts out. When OCEM puts out a film
Speaker 2: like this Seven Walks with Mark Brown, I am keenly
Speaker 2: interested in seeing it and giving it its proper due.
Speaker 2: This looks fantastic. Would you like to talk about it? Ryan?
Speaker 3: I wanted to point out Brendan's quote of it didn't
Speaker 3: bother me, and then you just talked about her for
Speaker 3: the last three minutes.
Speaker 2: Okay, Well, no, it's a point that I'm making, Like
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not offended by it. Yes, I wasted
Speaker 2: my time watching the Accountant movies. You're right, I should
Speaker 2: not have said that. Okay, I just know. I just
Speaker 2: want to I just want to, like clarify. But I
Speaker 2: don't think that all contemporary movies are like The Accountant.
Speaker 3: That was fun all right. Seven to Walks with Mark

Speaker 3: to explore notions of societal malaise, free love and gender
Speaker 3: fluidity and rapidly evolving nineteen seventies Japan, as both To
Speaker 3: Tomorrow and Geko begin to know each other on the
Speaker 3: road by way of a variety of encounters alternating between surrealistic, psychedelic,

Speaker 3: part of the documentary.

Speaker 3: bunch of stuff.

Speaker 2: a bot. Thank you. Hope she doesn't like Now somebody's

Speaker 3: Next from Film Movement is the Early Films of Lee
Speaker 3: Isaac Chung. I've heard nothing but great things about these
Speaker 3: three films today, with everybody clamoring to pick this up.
Speaker 3: Seemingly in my comments, everybody was very after these, it says,
Speaker 3: released for the first time ever in North America as
Speaker 3: a box set. The Early Films of Lee Isaac Chung
Speaker 3: includes the Oscar nominated filmmakers first three Award winning films
Speaker 3: before he went on to direct his Academy Award winning
Speaker 3: hit Manari.
Speaker 2: I loved Manari did you see Manari?
Speaker 3: No, I think you would genuinely love Manari. You should
Speaker 3: probably see that one.
Speaker 2: I'm interested in all these getting Its weird to call
Speaker 2: him the early films. He's only done five films, so
Speaker 2: it's his first three films. I guess technically that makes
Speaker 2: them the early ones. But well, and to be fair,
Speaker 2: it's been what nineteen years since the first film? Still, Okay,
Speaker 2: it doesn't matter, hurt, Let's get it. It's obviously important,
Speaker 2: first film about Rwandan youth post genocide. You know.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it'll have a forty page book in here with
Speaker 3: new writing by Keith Olik, Jamie Rebinall, and Alexander Heller Nicholas.
Speaker 3: You've got a director's commentary on the first film, Munere
Speaker 3: and Gabo. We've got Lucky Life that's gonna have a
Speaker 3: commentary by Lee Isaac Chung, and then Abigail harm also
Speaker 3: has a commentary by Lee Isaac Chunk.
Speaker 2: Yeah, very of this because I again loved Minari. Is
Speaker 2: the cats purring picking up on the microphone only sometimes,
Speaker 2: but it's good. It's mood music. I adore it.
Speaker 3: She's been all right, we got a big one to
Speaker 3: talk about here. This thing is fully sold out standard
Speaker 3: edition two. There is nothing available to purchase for this film.
Speaker 2: Film movement, that's one of the greatest Western's ever made.
Speaker 3: Film movement putting out on four K for the first time.
Speaker 3: Sergio Corbucci's The Great Silence. Incredible film starring Klaus Kinsky,
Speaker 3: got and then of course great art on the inside.
Speaker 3: Tony Stella in the art on this love it. Uh So, Yeah,
Speaker 3: two disc set. We got a four K in a
Speaker 3: blu ray. We've got Howard Hughes and Richard New audio commentary.
Speaker 3: We've got Austin Fisher on The Great Silence, Mike Siegel
Speaker 3: audio commentary. All of this stuff was on the Eureka
Speaker 3: release that a lot of us have, But this is
Speaker 3: an upgrade of four K. And it sounds like there
Speaker 3: might be some other than the booklet that comes with
Speaker 3: me writing by Nick Newman, Olne Olazac and Felipe Fertado.
Speaker 3: Uh there might be some alternate endings. They're claiming. One
Speaker 3: of them is like a brand new way that's never
Speaker 3: been seen before, and one that's never been released with sounds.
Speaker 3: So I'm very curious to see how new those are. Yeah,
Speaker 3: tell us about The Great Silence.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh. Every time I show sometimes I show
Speaker 2: this in my westerns class, sometimes I show it in
Speaker 2: my cult film's class. That doesn't matter whichever audience I get.
Speaker 2: Students are blown away. This is one of the greatest.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's it's it's got to be one of
Speaker 2: Corbucci's top one or two films easily, and I think
Speaker 2: it's one of the greatest westerns, not just Italian westerns
Speaker 2: ever made.
Speaker 3: This movie is incredible, absolutely absolutely love this movie. Very
Speaker 3: happy to see that this is coming out, and yeah,
Speaker 3: not much else to say. A lot of people upset,
Speaker 3: obviously with this getting sold out so quickly. One thing
Speaker 3: I wanted to make sure that we talked about tonight.
Speaker 3: A lot of people don't understand the partner labels themselves.
Speaker 3: They decide how many slipcovers to release. There are people
Speaker 3: genuinely upset about people. I literally had somebody type fu
Speaker 3: vinegar syndrome on my announcement for this. Vinegar syndrome literally
Speaker 3: has nothing to do with this release. All they did
Speaker 3: was put it on their website and they're allowing Film
Speaker 3: Movement to sell it there. Vinegar Syndrome did not dictate
Speaker 3: the number of slipcovers or when or how they could
Speaker 3: release this. Film Movement put it out. And the big thing,
Speaker 3: if Film Movement wanted to release five thousand copies of
Speaker 3: the slipcover, they would have had to buy five thousand slipcovers,
Speaker 3: and that's a lot of money. And the reality is
Speaker 3: if this had had five thousand slipcovers, would it.
Speaker 2: Have sold out in two hours?
Speaker 3: Definitely not. Would it have sold out in two months?
Speaker 3: It's possible that wouldn't have. So they would have had
Speaker 3: a ton of money held up in the slipcovers, and
Speaker 3: all of that is very expensive, so it's it is
Speaker 3: kind of a juggling game. It sucks, and yeah, do
Speaker 3: I wish they printed more? Of course, However, I totally
Speaker 3: understand they're there.
Speaker 2: It's a it's a struggle.
Speaker 3: You have to find out e gauge how well it's
Speaker 3: going to sell them. This thing has had multiple Blu
Speaker 3: ray releases. It is you know, it is understandable that
Speaker 3: you could think that this won't do extremely well immediately
Speaker 3: on four K.
Speaker 2: I hear what you're saying. I think the important thing
Speaker 2: to remember is that any title should print enough copies
Speaker 2: so that I can get one and If they don't,
Speaker 2: then we have a problem. Then they're the bestard. I
Speaker 2: got the problem, you know, Like, I'm upset with Manda
Speaker 2: Micabro right now because when they released their announced their
Speaker 2: Halloween bundle, I had no money, and now that I
Speaker 2: am able to purchase their Halloween Bundle, it is no
Speaker 2: longer available, and so we have this We're at an impasse.
Speaker 2: I'm upset. Gosh, you know what, it's a It's so tough. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I actually like, who is it that just said I
Speaker 2: missed it? Because I have a life, Like I'm sympathetic
Speaker 2: to that because like a lot of times, stuff gets
Speaker 2: announced at midnight or on a day where I'm at work,
Speaker 2: and then by the time I get to a computer
Speaker 2: and see that something's been released, it's already gone. And
Speaker 2: not always that always sucks, but you know, the margins
Speaker 2: are small, production costs are high. Great silence, it's a
Speaker 2: hot title. You know it's going to go fast.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Berry's right, the standard version will be back
Speaker 3: in stock. It's not going out of print. It's just
Speaker 3: this current print run that they have the stock of
Speaker 3: has sold out. So yeah, you're not missing out on
Speaker 3: the disc itself. That will still be available for sure,
Speaker 3: but even like with what Will said like and what
Speaker 3: Chroma said, missing out on this because I had a life,
Speaker 3: even me who planned on being here today to post,
Speaker 3: like I have to be here to post all these
Speaker 3: announcements for all the stuff that I cover. This sold
Speaker 3: out before I finished posting all of the announcements. How
Speaker 3: that's how quick this is.
Speaker 2: That's funny. You told me that it was released before
Speaker 2: I because I was going like one through each texted yeah,
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, great silence. I was like, I haven't
Speaker 2: gotten there yet, spoilers.
Speaker 3: So yeah, this sold out in two hours. I was
Speaker 3: not done posting all of their announcements in two hours.
Speaker 2: It took ages.
Speaker 3: So good riddance to the Great Silence. Next from film
Speaker 3: Movement is Stranger Eyes and this looks really good. This
Speaker 3: from twenty twenty four. This says, after and enduring months
Speaker 3: of a fruitless police investigation into the disappearance of their daughter,
Speaker 3: a young estranged couple Junyang and Pi Yang, realize they
Speaker 3: are being filmed surreptitiously when they begin receiving mysterious packages
Speaker 3: at their door containing DVDs with footage of their daily lives.
Speaker 3: The moments captured are unnerving, not only for the violation
Speaker 3: of their privacy, but for what is exposed about Jun
Speaker 3: Yang and Pi Yang's relationship on a most intimate level.
Speaker 3: Suspecting the voyeur is responsible for taking their daughter, the
Speaker 3: couple embark on a desperate mission to seek him out,
Speaker 3: only to find out the truth of his identity is
Speaker 3: more complicated than it seems. Ooh, we got a making
Speaker 3: a featurette and a sixteen page booklet with an essay
Speaker 3: by Ryan Swen And yeah, I gotta see this one.
Speaker 3: This sounds pretty great.
Speaker 2: Two of my favorite things, being filmed surreptitiously and having
Speaker 2: my child stolen.
Speaker 3: That is almost like Will Doddson inspired merch Ready with that.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 3: I love that. Like a year after you said it
Speaker 3: on the show, I sent you a tote bag that
Speaker 3: says I don't fuck with tope bag.
Speaker 2: And you know what happened to it. The dog ripped
Speaker 2: the handles off of it. Oh, no way, I'll send
Speaker 2: you another one. Well, I'll tell you a funny thing
Speaker 2: that happened. Uh, we've got these blinds that cover the
Speaker 2: windows so that we can't be filmed surreptitiously, and uh,
Speaker 2: I guess one of the blinds. The little string you
Speaker 2: pull to raise it up, it was is a loop.
Speaker 2: I heard this come I was I was having my
Speaker 2: coffee and I was having my coffee and doing some
Speaker 2: work one morning because I get up several hours before
Speaker 2: everybody else, and I heard this commotion. I didn't think
Speaker 2: anything of it at first, and then I was like, ah,
Speaker 2: maybe I should go see with that commotion. And I
Speaker 2: walk in and one of the cats had like jumped
Speaker 2: to grab the string and had managed to wrap it
Speaker 2: around its neck like a noose. And it was so funny, dude.
Speaker 2: The cat was just swinging back and forth. It had
Speaker 2: been long enough that the cat was just like, I'm
Speaker 2: going to die and had given up and just it
Speaker 2: was like swinging and it was so it was kind
Speaker 2: of cute in a weird way because the cat's so small.
Speaker 2: I was just swinging by the neck.
Speaker 3: And Christ finished the story, so it doesn't sound so morbid.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's fine. I got the cat and like
Speaker 2: he was so scared that he didn't even like struggle
Speaker 2: as I was trying to unwrap the and it was tight. Man,
Speaker 2: that cat was going to die. I saved its life.
Speaker 2: So you know the back. And then I went and
Speaker 2: got some scissors and I cut all the loops in
Speaker 2: the house. There's no more loops. Nothing has a loop.
Speaker 2: So but yeah, it would suck to get your kids tolen,
Speaker 2: Like like, on the one hand, oh my god, this
Speaker 2: this creature who I made and I love is has
Speaker 2: been taken from me. On the other hand, date night,
Speaker 2: you know, it's a tough situation to be in. You
Speaker 2: don't know how to feel. Oh my god, will but
Speaker 2: then you know, and you know, you know the wife's
Speaker 2: going to be all fucked up about it. I don't
Speaker 2: want to get into gender essentialism or anything, but like,
Speaker 2: I feel like i'd move on first, I understand.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Craig, when he listens to this podcast tomorrow was
Speaker 3: not going to be happy about that story.
Speaker 2: Well, you should be happy I saved the cat. You
Speaker 2: took eight minutes telling us that you saved the cat.
Speaker 2: That cat was that cat not ten minutes ago. Flounced
Speaker 2: her ass across the screen. She is, she's very happy,
Speaker 2: she's okay, wow, all right. Yeah, I was wondering what okay,
Speaker 2: of course ives the cat?
Speaker 3: From Film Movement, their next title is an unfinished film. Uh,
Speaker 3: this is from acclaimed director Lao Ya and it is
Speaker 3: going to have a Q and a featurette and a
Speaker 3: sixteen page book with an essay by Simon Abrams. And
Speaker 3: it is about in January twenty twenty. The director is
Speaker 3: Jao Rui Rionites's casting crew to complete a film that
Speaker 3: was abandoned during production ten years earlier. However, the team
Speaker 3: is suddenly placed into lockdown during the onset of COVID nineteen.
Speaker 3: Confronted with the challenges of the pandemic, Jawrie and his
Speaker 3: crew are forced to determine how to move forward in
Speaker 3: a rapidly changing world.
Speaker 2: That's fucking hilarious, dude, Now I want to see this.
Speaker 2: It sounds great, I mean hilarious, like awful. It's like, hey, guys,
Speaker 2: I finally got the funding to finish the movie. Oh no, yues, what.
Speaker 3: All right? That is an unfinished film. Next up, brand
Speaker 3: new partner label this This is Watermelon Pictures and they
Speaker 3: are putting out The Encampments from twenty twenty five. This
Speaker 3: one is from Will is Going to Love the sentence
Speaker 3: from executive producer Macklemore. The Encampments offers an intimate look
Speaker 3: at America's student movement, sparked a coll a university of students,
Speaker 3: among them the Mamood Khalil protest of the university's ties
Speaker 3: to the War on Gaza and for the record. Watermelon
Speaker 3: Pictures is an award winning film production and distribution company
Speaker 3: founded in twenty twenty four by the brothers Body Ali
Speaker 3: and Hamza Ali. The company is dedicated to amplifying underrepresented
Speaker 3: filmmakers worldwide through powerful and culturally urgent storytelling. Watermelon Pictures
Speaker 3: is a wholly owned subsidiary of MPI Media Group. This
Speaker 3: we'll have six bonus scenes, a director and participant commentary.
Speaker 3: What a weird way to say that? Who is the participant?
Speaker 3: Exclusive clip from Bisan auDA and a trailer Tell me
Speaker 3: about Maclmore there will.
Speaker 2: As I was watching the trailer, there was a Macomore
Speaker 2: song and I can't wait to parse the lyrics. Yep, listen.
Speaker 2: Can we talk seriously for a minute, Ryan, I mean,
Speaker 2: for God's sake, sure, obviously this is an important subject
Speaker 2: for a documentary. I'm a little leery about it in
Speaker 2: the sense for this reason, and I haven't seen it yet,
Speaker 2: so this is not a criticism. This is just something
Speaker 2: that I'm worried about. I Obviously, the right to protest
Speaker 2: is fundamental to American freedom, including protesting in ways that
Speaker 2: others might find emotionally and socially harmful. I am less
Speaker 2: concerned about how Columbia University students feel than I am
Speaker 2: about the people of Gaza and of Israel. Yes, and
Speaker 2: so I hope that the documentary does not slide into
Speaker 2: a subject that's less important than it deserves. Based on
Speaker 2: the trailer, I can't tell. And you know, I laugh
Speaker 2: at maclamore, but hey, you know what, you made your money, brother,
Speaker 2: and you're using it as you see fit, So good
Speaker 2: for you, you know, Yeah, I do. I absolutely want
Speaker 2: to see this. I'm concerned about it. I'm especially as
Speaker 2: a university employee, actually concerned about how administration behaves when
Speaker 2: with regard to student and faculty freedom of speech and
Speaker 2: academic freedom. And shit's going on now? Oh I can't
Speaker 2: even tell you because I could give I actually any appearance.
Speaker 2: If anybody looks at any appearance I have on this show,
Speaker 2: I'll probably be fired. But uh, yeah, so I'm I'm
Speaker 2: jazzed to see this. I'm worried. I'm worried about the
Speaker 2: take that it's going to have, But that's probably good too.
Speaker 2: You know, like some documentaries are made in the moment,
Speaker 2: and some documentaries are made with the benefit of of
Speaker 2: time having passed, and this one was made in the moment.
Speaker 2: And I'm excited to see excited, interested, interested to see
Speaker 2: what it has to say. I am curious as to why,
Speaker 2: like their advertising copy begins with from executive producer Macklmore,
Speaker 2: that's curious me. I'm not saying, don't advertise it. I'm
Speaker 2: just like, why are you leading with that? I understand
Speaker 2: from executive producer carat Top Gaza the true story.
Speaker 3: So my big thing, Yes, I saw this, and I
Speaker 3: don't you saying no, no no. I saw this announcement
Speaker 3: and I was interested just like you. However, immediately worried
Speaker 3: because I feel that this could easily devolve into performative
Speaker 3: empathy colon the documentary, and I don't know, there's a
Speaker 3: lot of different ways that this could come across, and
Speaker 3: I I.
Speaker 2: Don't know what.
Speaker 3: A subject such as this that is me to literally
Speaker 3: be a one sided documentary is kind of kind of
Speaker 3: tough to pull off in a way that feels like
Speaker 3: a proper documentary.
Speaker 2: It's certainly a multifaceted issue. That absolutely, but we're not
Speaker 2: equipped to talk about right now. But hey, maybe next
Speaker 2: time we should. At the end of the show, the
Speaker 2: segment can be like Gaza, can we not?
Speaker 3: Is that an option to No?
Speaker 2: I think I think everyone wants to hear what we
Speaker 2: have to say. Jesus Christ nothing. I don't think Jesus
Speaker 2: is part of the equation. I mean, he was glad
Speaker 2: of religion. He's kind of marginalized anyways. So check out
Speaker 2: the encampments. No, I mean, yeah, I don't want that.
Speaker 2: I don't want to sound like I'm trashing the movie
Speaker 2: because I do want to see this. I'm just the
Speaker 2: entire nenouncement. It's kind of confusing to me. I get that.
Speaker 3: And another thing, honestly, to make this your first release
Speaker 3: that you're like, look at us, we're new to OCN.
Speaker 3: I don't know that that could be tought.
Speaker 2: Well, that I think is great. I'm like, come out,
Speaker 2: come out swinging. You know, maybe it's a more clear
Speaker 2: cut announcement here. Yeah, well there's nothing clear cut about
Speaker 2: the issue, but well some things were clear cut.
Speaker 3: Actually, that's why I said, use a clear cut announcement.
Speaker 2: Yes, well, you know Macamore, remember that song he made
Speaker 2: about gay people.
Speaker 3: I do actually, yes, what was that called? Uh, like
Speaker 3: one Love or something like that.
Speaker 2: Which is a misleading title because like that's the same
Speaker 2: slogan that the Maga people use. It might not be
Speaker 2: one level loud, you know. But mackelmore was like, it
Speaker 2: was so funny that video is so funny for the
Speaker 2: one Love it might not even be the title. All right,
Speaker 2: that sounds like Bob Marley could be. Wow.
Speaker 3: All right, why don't we go to Canada instead and
Speaker 3: talk about Canadian International Pictures releasing Ghost Keeper on Blu Ray.
Speaker 3: This is from nineteen eighty one. This is a title
Speaker 3: that had previously been released by Code Red. This is
Speaker 3: newly scanned and restored in four K from the only
Speaker 3: known complete thirty five millimeters tactical print by CIP. This
Speaker 3: is going to have a new commentary with the Hysteria
Speaker 3: continues and Amanda Areas. We love Amanda Areas.
Speaker 2: We do. We got a new episode episode. Let's say
Speaker 2: it again. We love Amanda Areas a lot great she is,
Speaker 2: I mean not a lot. Don't make it weird, but
Speaker 2: she's great. She does good work. She does. That's an
Speaker 2: odd that's an odd pairing.
Speaker 3: It is, but what's a great pairing is on this release.
Speaker 3: There's also a new episode of the New World Pictures podcast,
Speaker 3: which is one of my favorites. And Ryan Gallan, the host,
Speaker 3: is right here in the chat. What's up, Ryan, I
Speaker 3: didn't even know you were doing this release.
Speaker 2: You never told me.
Speaker 3: This is great.
Speaker 2: Congratulations. I'm stoked us on here.
Speaker 3: Ryan's keeping shit from you, Ryan, Ryan is keeping shit
Speaker 3: and I just put him on a disc dammit.
Speaker 2: Wow, and he's got a whole secret life.
Speaker 3: Come on, I'll give him a break. Ryan got food
Speaker 3: poisoning from pastries this week, so I feel bad for him.
Speaker 2: I feel like that was privileged information that.
Speaker 3: You It was not. He was sharing it publicly, and
Speaker 3: I felt really terrible for him. We got a new
Speaker 3: interview with Chris Alexander on this one. We've got a
Speaker 3: new interview with.
Speaker 2: I got fit poison ones Man, I'll tell you the
Speaker 2: worst way you could possibly get it. But anyways, go ahead,
Speaker 2: I'll tell you later. Go ahead. With ghost Keeping Canada's
Speaker 2: answer to the Shining.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this sounds looks great. We got a bunch of
Speaker 3: new interviews on here, lots of new stuff going on.
Speaker 3: We got a ghostkeeper to the Kickstar video pitching the
Speaker 3: sequel from twenty thirteen. We've got reversible cover art. We've
Speaker 3: got a booklet with a new essay by Yesmina Katita
Speaker 3: and the essay on the film's production history by Eric Follmers.
Speaker 3: Have you seen Ghostkeeper?
Speaker 2: Ghostkeeper too? Man, We're going back to the Hotel A.
Speaker 2: You know, we didn't get enough of the ghosts the
Speaker 2: first time, so we're gonna check it out on once more.
Speaker 2: Look around, see what we can find.
Speaker 3: You know, what are you gonna call?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I've not seen this one. I put this in
Speaker 2: my cart, but then when I saw the total of
Speaker 2: my cart, I was like, eh, I gotta drop something,
Speaker 2: And I saw that this was available to stream, So
Speaker 2: I'm gonna you know, I love snow stuff, and so
Speaker 2: I'm gonna stream it and probably make the purchase. I mean,
Speaker 2: especially now that I know that that we got the
Speaker 2: New World Pictures podcasts. Yep, Ryan, I have to like
Speaker 2: explain which Ryan I'm talking about every time I talk
Speaker 2: about Ryan. There's so many Ryans. So I'm super stoked
Speaker 2: about all the extras. I'm gonna check out the movie
Speaker 2: and then as soon as I get paid, gonna pick
Speaker 2: it up. Most likely. The trailer looks cool.
Speaker 3: Can I just say Canadian International Pictures up there with
Speaker 3: like three or four of the partner labels that will
Speaker 3: take a film and put literally as much as they
Speaker 3: possibly can on the disc, and I always appreciate that.
Speaker 3: I feel like every single disc from them are worth
Speaker 3: the purchase much more than some of the others. Not
Speaker 3: going to name names, but there's a couple of them
Speaker 3: that are very light on supplements pretty much every time,
Speaker 3: and that always hurts when it's the same price as
Speaker 3: something else that is completely stacked to the rafters with supplements.
Speaker 3: So I always love seeing these and it sounds like
Speaker 3: an incredible release. Have not seen it, but eager to
Speaker 3: see it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, ghost Keeper, all right.
Speaker 3: Next up is from Yellow Veil Pictures. They're putting out
Speaker 3: a grand mockery from twenty twenty five that says Josie's
Speaker 3: mundane life changes when mental illness drives him to Queensland's
Speaker 3: rainforest shot on Super eight, and you can tell if
Speaker 3: you watch the trailer for this one. This playful diptych
Speaker 3: shifts from dark comedy to transformation alongside its protagonist. I
Speaker 3: didn't mean anything native mind, that's just very clearly shot
Speaker 3: on film.
Speaker 2: Are you done? I am done? Go ahead. Well, it
Speaker 2: didn't look like it was for me, but it looked
Speaker 2: like it might be interesting, you know, a little talkie
Speaker 2: for my taste, which I recognize is ironic. Oh no,
Speaker 2: we were just talking about act. I would talk to
Speaker 2: Matt just the other day about how irritated I get
Speaker 2: about people doing apple Achian accents of completely ignoring the
Speaker 2: fact that almost every time I'm on here, I do
Speaker 2: the dumbest generic Canadian accent ever.
Speaker 3: Sipner was already asking for the link, and we just
Speaker 3: didn't get to it in time.
Speaker 2: Hey, Matt, it's not I don't mean it to be culturalist.
Speaker 2: I just every time there's a Canadian International Pictures release,
Speaker 2: I gotta do it, all right.
Speaker 3: So supplements for a grand mockery. We had a commentary
Speaker 3: with the directors. We got an interview with the directors.
Speaker 3: We got some deleted scenes, some Q and A's video
Speaker 3: podcast with Eugene holy Coddle lorinco with Adam C. Briggs
Speaker 3: and Sam Dixon, who are the directors. We got a
Speaker 3: short film called We've All Got Him from twenty twenty three,
Speaker 3: an essay by Alexandra Heller Nicholas. I think that's three
Speaker 3: tonight just for the partner labels.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she is all over it. And I want to
Speaker 2: make clear, you know, Matt, and now we're talking about
Speaker 2: the diversity of Canadian accents as well as the diversity
Speaker 2: of Southern Appalachian accents. And so what I'm doing is
Speaker 2: like what I hear when I hear the Mackenzie brothers
Speaker 2: on SCTV or Letter Kenny or whatever. I know, real
Speaker 2: Canadians and friends with them, They don't sound anything like
Speaker 2: what I'm saying about at all.
Speaker 3: And I apologize in advance, sim if you don't want
Speaker 3: me to say this, But his last two texts to
Speaker 3: be outside of the chat. One one does not mock
Speaker 3: the haunted souls of the Northeast and then wandering from
Speaker 3: one Tim Hortons to the next, unable to move into
Speaker 3: the great beyond.
Speaker 2: Well, Simnar does sound like Mackenzie Doddy from New York City. Well,
Speaker 2: I don't know where he got his education.
Speaker 3: Oh god, my face hurts from laughing at that.
Speaker 2: Part of New York. Uh Sconnectady, where sitting here from?
Speaker 2: Who are your people?
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, the Buffalonians?
Speaker 2: Uh? Great? Hey, you know there's a lot of great
Speaker 2: people from Buffalo.
Speaker 3: I've heard of him.
Speaker 2: Anni DiFranco, uh Ship says he's from Manhattan originally, I think.
Speaker 2: So that's what it's like from Wall Street.
Speaker 3: That's the only thing. All right, are you ready to
Speaker 3: go the next one?
Speaker 2: Well? I don't know, Like what do we think about
Speaker 2: a Graham mockery? You know, like there's there's a place
Speaker 2: for eight millimeter like ultra low budget experience mental things.
Speaker 3: Being made in twenty twenty five. That's pretty rad.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, I generally, you know, I'm not into
Speaker 2: oh somebody's like descending into madness films. But you know,
Speaker 2: it all depends on how it's done right. It's true,
Speaker 2: So check it out. That was a very job in Manhattan.
Speaker 3: All right. Let's talk about In Our Blood from twenty
Speaker 3: twenty four. This is coming out from Utopia. It says
Speaker 3: nothing nothing is as it seems. When filmmaker Emily Wyland
Speaker 3: teams up with cinematographer Danny to shoot a documentary about
Speaker 3: reuniting with Emily's estranged mother Sam, when she goes missing,
Speaker 3: possibly succumbing to the addictions that tore her family apart,
Speaker 3: Emily and Danny must follow increasingly sinister clues to find
Speaker 3: her before it's too late. We've got behind the scenes
Speaker 3: photo gallery, behind the scenes video gallery, the Fantasia International
Speaker 3: Film Festival alternate opening, and then an audio video director's commentary.
Speaker 3: We got a video director's commentary on this, which is
Speaker 3: pretty rare.
Speaker 2: I don't know what that means.
Speaker 3: Literally, if it's done the way that it should be,
Speaker 3: it is picture and picture and you see a video
Speaker 3: of them watching the film and talking about it, but
Speaker 3: you can see the film at the same time.
Speaker 2: Should be the other ways.
Speaker 3: Uh, yeah, I've seen a couple of people on disc
Speaker 3: do it in a very weird way.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't want to put it. I
Speaker 3: don't want to put them down, so I'll keep my
Speaker 3: trap shut.
Speaker 2: If you did a video a video comtary from now
Speaker 2: you seen title that might be neat added value.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we didn't think it was funny as that naked
Speaker 3: sitting on a leather couch, semi nude.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, talk about this. This looks to me and
Speaker 2: the trailer for this was kind of cool.
Speaker 3: Yeah, looks good.
Speaker 2: Yeah, definitely worth a watch.
Speaker 3: Definitely worth a watch. I agree Utopia puts us some
Speaker 3: decent flicks.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, all right, oh, here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 3: IFC putting out The Last Mistress from two thousand and seven,
Speaker 3: starring Ozzi Argento. As Will alluded to earlier, this is
Speaker 3: directed by Katherine Briat. We've got France's foremost Profockatris teams
Speaker 3: with daredevil Screensire and Asia Argento for a scorching, intensely
Speaker 3: carnal adaptation of a scandalous nineteenth century novel. A reformed
Speaker 3: libertine prepares to marry a virginal daughter of the aristocracy
Speaker 3: and settle down, but his jealous lover lurks in the wings,
Speaker 3: and the minds of high society's gossip hounds still fiercely
Speaker 3: determined to possess him. All right, go ahead, Well.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, this is a great movie. Katherine Briatt,
Speaker 2: it's one of her I think it's one of her
Speaker 2: best movies. Now. The the the original title in French
Speaker 2: more accurately translates to the Old Mistress uh punning on
Speaker 2: both former and the age of Oscio Argento. She's older
Speaker 2: than the so called reformed Libertine, and it really gets
Speaker 2: into the well, I mean, you know, we're all familiar
Speaker 2: with the way we a salaciously are interested in the
Speaker 2: sex lives of public figures and celebrate any kind of
Speaker 2: public humiliation that can be brought upon them for their
Speaker 2: for their activities, and uh, you know, for so many reasons.
Speaker 2: Ossi Argento is perfectly cast. You know, she's got that
Speaker 2: look the her, you know, she's she's got that kind
Speaker 2: of feline quality to her, to her to her persona
Speaker 2: that really like sells this role. And I think it's
Speaker 2: one of her best performances as an actress. I'm a
Speaker 2: I'm a big fan of this movie. And I still
Speaker 2: have like a Blockbuster used DVD that I got for
Speaker 2: four ninety eight and like some going out of business sale.
Speaker 2: So this is a very welcome upgrade. I mean, Katherin Briott,
Speaker 2: all of her films, like there's there's none of her
Speaker 2: films can be appreciated without complication, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: I love the fact that every time I watch one
Speaker 2: of her films, at the end, there are some things
Speaker 2: where I'm like, Wow, that was really like well said,
Speaker 2: and there are other things where I'm like, I don't
Speaker 2: know how I feel about that, you know, Like I'm
Speaker 2: still thinking about the last mistress. Like when it popped
Speaker 2: up today, I was like, shit, that movie kind of
Speaker 2: fucked me up when I first saw it fifteen years
Speaker 2: ago or whatever it was.
Speaker 3: Sibner and mister Aaron want us to know that it
Speaker 3: is Bria, not Briat.
Speaker 2: Well, I just I just learned how to pronounce Sibner's
Speaker 2: name like two months ago, so I got Assia right.
Speaker 3: That's true, Asia Argento.
Speaker 2: Now you're gonna ask me to like pronounce friend shit correctly.
Speaker 2: I don't know about that.
Speaker 3: I just don't pronounce anything right, So that's the easy way.
Speaker 2: You're pretty good with the Spanish. I'm all right.
Speaker 3: Well, I do surprisingly well with the Indian names too.
Speaker 3: I deal with those a lot of works.
Speaker 2: Never heard of her, all right.
Speaker 3: Next up from Dark Star Pictures is a double feature
Speaker 3: of Love Kills and Between Us from twenty twenty five
Speaker 3: and twenty twenty two. Love Kills says an infidelity comes
Speaker 3: to an abrupt end when two cheating lovers are caught
Speaker 3: and his sugar daddy becomes the prime suspect when one
Speaker 3: of them goes missing. And then Between Us says E
Speaker 3: LOOADI and are in love and want laty and want
Speaker 3: a child.
Speaker 2: Oh wait, you know what, Sibner, could you tell us?
Speaker 2: Thought that was funny?
Speaker 3: And now Ronnie is saying that yours is correct. And
Speaker 3: at at the end of a French word is.
Speaker 2: A and not a what did I say?
Speaker 3: You said briat? But so maybe it's not the sound
Speaker 3: at the end, Maybe it's just briat.
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 3: Between us, When a Lodi learns she cannot have children,
Speaker 3: the couple decides to take on a roommate, and on
Speaker 3: the extras on This between Us gets a trailer and
Speaker 3: a photo gallery. The relationship Yeah, love Kills gets a
Speaker 3: commentary with the director some of the performers, another commentary
Speaker 3: with some other performers in the director, some interviews, a
Speaker 3: photo slideshow, and a trailer, and there we go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, these look cool. I don't really have any perspective
Speaker 2: to share except looks it looks like looks like some
Speaker 2: people are going to get upset in this movie, both
Speaker 2: of them. I would be willing to bet that, yes,
Speaker 2: all right.
Speaker 3: Dark Star also putting out another double feature of Someone's
Speaker 3: Knocking at the Door and HP Lovecrafts The Deep Ones.
Speaker 3: The Deep One says they married. Couple rents a beachside airbnb,
Speaker 3: only to be stranded by peculiar neighbors and occurrences. They

Speaker 3: mysterious cult and the ancient sea god that they worship
Speaker 3: for Someone's knocking at the door, it says, returning to
Speaker 3: the medical school where they were test subjects decades ago,
Speaker 3: pairabout rageously twisted serial killers use shockingly brutal sex acts
Speaker 3: to start killing off a group of drugged out med students.
Speaker 2: Something tells me there's Pegan in that movie was not
Speaker 2: the kind I would appreciate.
Speaker 3: The Deep Ones has a director's commentary and making out
Speaker 3: a couple of q and as someone's knocking at the
Speaker 3: doors behind the scenes, some deleted scenes and an alternate
Speaker 3: opening scene, and I've not seen either of these.
Speaker 2: I like the idea of HP Lovecraft updated to apps
Speaker 2: doing her BMP and stuff. The condo emerged from the
Speaker 2: stygian darkness. Yeah, that's cool. I'll check those out.
Speaker 3: All right, Let's go to our next one. She Came
Speaker 3: from the Woods. This is coming from ETR Media. This
Speaker 3: was the first slipcover to sell out today, I believe,
Speaker 3: which is crazy.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: In nineteen eighty seven, a group of counselors accidentally on
Speaker 3: leash eight decades old evil on the last night of
Speaker 3: summer camp. As the situation turns bloody, the group is
Speaker 3: forced to confront what stories are worth telling and what
Speaker 3: secrets are worth keeping. This one's starring William Sadler and Carbuano,
Speaker 3: who is in Stranger Things. Oh okay, talking point right now.
Speaker 3: Audio commentary for the director, writers and cinematographer. Behind the
Speaker 3: scenes featurette a, stills, gallery, and a trailer are on
Speaker 3: the disc. So well, looks all right, not normal etr
Speaker 3: media fair which is interesting.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the trailer looked like, you know, kind of typical
Speaker 2: horror comedy, so you know, I'll check it out. Yeah,
Speaker 2: she came from the woods.
Speaker 3: Next up a pretty decent one, the story of Tom
Speaker 3: Savigni called Smoke and Mirrors, is coming from Wild Eye Movies.
Speaker 3: This is a re release. This had come out previously
Speaker 3: from Wild Eye on Blu Ray and came out handful
Speaker 3: of years ago. Now she's just coming out since they're
Speaker 3: a partner label, they're putting it out again with the
Speaker 3: brand new slip cover design. Decent documentary. I'd say not
Speaker 3: what it could have been, but I liked it enough.
Speaker 2: Did you see this one, will No, I haven't seen
Speaker 2: it yet. I look forward to seeing it, I recalled
Speaker 2: Bob Briggs giving a kind of mixed review to it,
Speaker 2: like yeah, saying that you know, there are all these
Speaker 2: like moments where a follow up question might have revealed
Speaker 2: some really personal stuff. But you know, who knows, like
Speaker 2: there might have been an agreement between the director and Tom.
Speaker 2: You know, I can't speculate. I haven't seen it yet.
Speaker 2: I'm very interested in it, though, because obviously it's Tom's feeni.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it's it's certainly worth watching. I just
Speaker 3: he's been around for so long and he's taking part
Speaker 3: in so many discs, Like we could have went a
Speaker 3: little bit deeper.
Speaker 2: That's it. Well, Smoking Mirrors, it tells you, touche. That
Speaker 2: was good. Glass Eye Pictures.
Speaker 3: Who is Larry Festeneden's label is putting out triggermanned Ty
Speaker 3: West two thousand and six film, which you are a
Speaker 3: semi fan of this one and you don't like a
Speaker 3: lot of his stuff, So tell us about Sugarman.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was funny. I I texted you about this
Speaker 2: because this is, uh, the one Taie West movie. I
Speaker 2: kind of like it's it's like a it's it's it's
Speaker 2: a isn't it found footage? It's a found footage, right,
Speaker 2: I it's been a while since I've seen this one.
Speaker 2: I think, so no, no, no, not found footage. But but
Speaker 2: it's like super it's handheld right yeah. Uh, it's just
Speaker 2: uh it worked for me. You know, some some tender
Speaker 2: feet go out on the What's to hunt and some
Speaker 2: motherfucker with the gun starts shooting at him. It's uh,
Speaker 2: it's a story of America. It's yeah, I enjoy this one.
Speaker 2: I think this is this is a movie that really,
Speaker 2: you know, Ty West, My biggest problem with him is
Speaker 2: his pacing, okay, and this is a movie where his
Speaker 2: pacing style really works for me. Hmm, yeah, I recommend it.
Speaker 2: I'm going to pick this up. I didn't get it
Speaker 2: in my initial cart because I don't think it's going
Speaker 2: to sell out. We'll see, maybe it will.
Speaker 3: There's still I think one or two Thai West films
Speaker 3: from like his super early days that have never been
Speaker 3: released on Blu Ray, and I really hope they do
Speaker 3: the rest of those because I think they were all
Speaker 3: with class eye and it would be nice. I mean,
Speaker 3: he's now emerged as such a huge name, especially after
Speaker 3: the X trilogy.
Speaker 2: It would be we should have all of his films
Speaker 2: out there for sure. Well, yes, I agree.
Speaker 3: We got a brand new commentary with Larry Festenen on
Speaker 3: this that was just recorded last year on archival track
Speaker 3: from two thousand and seven. We got behind the scenes,
Speaker 3: We got a theatrical trailer QJA from the LA Film Festival,
Speaker 3: short film by Ty West called Prey. And then a
Speaker 3: booklet with new writing by Isaac Fieldberg. Yeah, this was
Speaker 3: to me and must I remember liking this one quite
Speaker 3: a bit. It's been a while since I've seen it,
Speaker 3: but Triggerman good stuff. And then last of the Ocean
Speaker 3: partner label announcements, Saturn's Core audio and video putting out
Speaker 3: Your Life Is on the Line, a Joe Christ anthology,
Speaker 3: Volume one, covering nineteen eighty eight to nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 3: There is so much stuff here, I don't even know
Speaker 3: what to cover. Like, there is five films, all of
Speaker 3: them at brand new commentaries from Joe Christ himself. There's
Speaker 3: gonna be a visual essay on Joe Christ filmography by
Speaker 3: Heather Drain. Another visual essay by Heather Drain, which is
Speaker 3: on Acid is Groovy Killed The pigs. There's footage from
Speaker 3: the uncompleted sequel of Sex, Blood and Mutilation, twenty eight
Speaker 3: page booklet edited by Jason Pancoke, featuring writings by Will
Speaker 3: Sloan from the important cinema club Vincent Alberano, from a
Speaker 3: static Deviations and the musician and SOB expert James Kelly,
Speaker 3: And it says Anthology Volume one. I'm sure that we
Speaker 3: will get a volume two at some point in the future.
Speaker 3: This is crazy.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, this is definite. I I wish we could
Speaker 2: have done something for this. Joe christ Man Hell yeah,
Speaker 2: you know he's punk as fuck or was?
Speaker 3: All right, I know nothing about Joe christ So yeah,
Speaker 3: here we go.
Speaker 2: Ironically, Joe christ was not part of your Christian punk upbringing.
Speaker 2: He was not, No, because the christ part is ironic.
Speaker 3: Yeah, all right, let's head over to Melu scene. As
Speaker 3: the second part of second release from the Mitchell Brothers
Speaker 3: film group. We've got Resurrection of Eve from nineteen seventy three.
Speaker 3: It's coming in the hard box release with the slipcover
Speaker 3: on the inside. Here is the slipcover. This is starring
Speaker 3: Maryland Chambers and it's gonna be a region free. We
Speaker 3: got an eighty four minute feature presentation of the film,
Speaker 3: newly restored from a thirty five millimeter blow up CRI,
Speaker 3: with the following sound options. We've got the English language
Speaker 3: mono soundtrack, and we've got a feature length audio commentary
Speaker 3: with Marylyn Chambers biographer Jared Stearns. There's an audio interview
Speaker 3: with the actor Johnny Keyes, moderated by Ashley West from
Speaker 3: the realto Report the Many Faces of Marylyn Chambers featurette.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be a history of the tenderloin on here
Speaker 3: called porn was Born here, never before seen trims and
Speaker 3: outtakes eight millimeters digest version of the film. Yeah what,
Speaker 3: and it's from the seventies, which is shocking. A couple
Speaker 3: of trailers. We got an eleven x seventeen replica Japanese
Speaker 3: one sheet that is included in this and this is
Speaker 3: the second one on the Mitchell Brothers film group. And
Speaker 3: he thought of Marylynd Chambers or Mitchell.
Speaker 2: Brothers, big fan of maryon Chambers. I think we should
Speaker 2: all be ambivalent about pornographers, just because you know, it's
Speaker 2: a problematic industry. I am curious, not that I'm a
Speaker 2: penny pincher by any means, but I did notice that
Speaker 2: behind the green door is four k. It is and
Speaker 2: has the same kind of packaging style as Resurrection of Eve,
Speaker 2: but is several dollars cheaper. So I wondered what the
Speaker 2: difference was several dollars cheaper unless I'm crazy, which is
Speaker 2: obviously possible. Look it up on your little laptop there.
Speaker 3: You were looking probably at the motion picture or soundtrack CD,
Speaker 3: which is only ten dollars.
Speaker 2: No, are you idiot? Wow? Am I idiot? Are you idiot?
Speaker 3: Because if you look here Resurrection of Eve twenty nine
Speaker 3: ninety thirty.
Speaker 2: Six cone are you logged in? Why do I need
Speaker 2: to be logged in for your membership discount? Dufus?
Speaker 3: Well no, you can see the crossed out price the
Speaker 3: Mitchell Brothers Film Group on Half of that would be
Speaker 3: twenty five, Half of the Resurrection of Eve would be
Speaker 3: twenty fifty.
Speaker 2: I can't argue with you, man, you you're you're doing
Speaker 2: your your your snake tongue math. No, that's not Look
Speaker 2: when I was logged in, I clicked on the movies.
Speaker 2: Oh is it? Because? No? Is it because of the
Speaker 2: membership prices change in the new year. I don't think
Speaker 2: that happens for well, I don't know whatever.
Speaker 3: I'll log in real quick and I'll show you it's.
Speaker 2: It's a it's a porno with Marilyn Chambers. She's super cute. Like,
Speaker 2: if you want to see it, get it.
Speaker 3: So when you're logged in, Resurrection of Eve says starting
Speaker 3: at twenty one to forty nine behind the Green Door
Speaker 3: thirty six ninety nine.
Speaker 2: Oh, maybe I wasn't locked in. That's only You're not
Speaker 2: a subscriber this time, are you. I'm a subscriber.
Speaker 3: What you did it?
Speaker 2: Yeah, well you know what I figured out. No, I don't. Well,
Speaker 2: you know I post. I do reviews, right, yeah, and
Speaker 2: I always add a couple of pictures in a video.
Speaker 3: Oh so you got your fourteen dollars of a discount.
Speaker 2: Well, so I get one hundred and fifty points to
Speaker 2: two hundred points for every review, and if I post
Speaker 2: six hundred and sixty six reviews, it will pay for
Speaker 2: the subscription. That's a lot of reviews. Well, I'm taking
Speaker 2: that challenge, all right. So I made a huge mistake
Speaker 2: about the pride of the Resurrection of Eve, and I'm glad.
Speaker 2: I'm glad that I am happy to tell you that
Speaker 2: I'm wrong and Ryan's right, we.
Speaker 3: Just dove into the Resurrection of Eve for way too
Speaker 3: long to find out that it's cheaper.
Speaker 2: Somebody pointed out, this is going to be the next
Speaker 2: toad bag. Oh I still love that. You said, are
Speaker 2: you idiot? I was so upset I couldn't I couldn't
Speaker 2: be bothered with the article, Jess says, Ryan, not idiot.
Speaker 2: And this I can't even use used as an excuse
Speaker 2: that I'm tired because this episode is half the length.
Speaker 2: Yeah all right, yeah, no, no, no, let's talk about it.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's talk about Marilyn Chambers.
Speaker 2: Go right ahead. First of all, my bad, I am idiot.
Speaker 2: I am idiot. I like that it's not the Resurrection
Speaker 2: of Eve because there's like several Eves that's resurrection of
Speaker 2: Eve's really I think I probably saw this at some
Speaker 2: point in my life, but I don't know anything about it.
Speaker 2: You know. Marilyn Chambers is great. Yeah, you know, I'm
Speaker 2: sorry how she got treated in her life. If you
Speaker 2: if you want to see what she was forced to
Speaker 2: do by her abusive partner, then uh purchase this movie.
Speaker 2: Coo bully.
Speaker 3: All right, let's take a look at the quality X
Speaker 3: release for this month. We got Marashino Kerry. This is
Speaker 3: from nineteen seventy eight.
Speaker 2: Great trailer, Yeah, hilarious.
Speaker 3: Actually this is set over the course of one Sexfield Day,
Speaker 3: an exclusive Manhattan bordello. This is gonna be region free,
Speaker 3: newly scanned it restored in four K from the thirty
Speaker 3: five millimeter negative, featurelength audio commentary with the director Radley Metzger,
Speaker 3: moderated by Ashley West of the rialto report, there's an
Speaker 3: archival video interview with Gloria Leonard, some trailers, radio spots
Speaker 3: never before seen, trims and outtakes again, twenty four page
Speaker 3: book old with an essay by Ashley West as well.
Speaker 3: And yeah, this one actually looks pretty.
Speaker 2: Fun I'm getting torn up in the chat deservedly, it's true.
Speaker 3: Any thoughts on Maraschino Cherry or Radley Metzger from you?
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it looks funny. I don't know what
Speaker 2: to do. You know, I got a family, so watching
Speaker 2: any of these is next to impossible. But the trailer
Speaker 2: looks funny. So if you are in a position where
Speaker 2: you can watch pornos on your TV, you could probably
Speaker 2: do worse. What an endorsement? All right? Speaking of any
Speaker 2: one thing, I'm sure of this one is cheaper than
Speaker 2: Resurrection of Me.
Speaker 3: That is true.
Speaker 2: That is absolutely got that one correct. Well done.
Speaker 3: You are idiots free idiot lists. So now, of course
Speaker 3: it is a subscription week or a subscriber week for
Speaker 3: Vinegar Syndrome. So we get a bunch of clues, we
Speaker 3: get some title announcements, we get a bunch of teases,
Speaker 3: and so going through the whole year. If you are
Speaker 3: wanting to do this, first off, remember the subscription is
Speaker 3: limited to two thousand, so if you are not one
Speaker 3: of the two thousand, you're not gonna be a subscriber.
Speaker 3: For the month of January, we are getting Made in
Speaker 3: Hong Kong volume two. We're getting The Terror Firmer four
Speaker 3: K and The Phantom of the Opera four K. Next
Speaker 3: month in February, we're getting a four K of Demon War,
Speaker 3: which wild that that is coming on four K. We're
Speaker 3: getting a nineteen eighties Italian horror that's gonna be a
Speaker 3: four K early nineties erotic murder thriller uncensored four K.
Speaker 2: That's interesting. Okay.
Speaker 3: March, we're getting Forgotten Jolly Set featuring Bruno Mattai Slee's
Speaker 3: Gym and two other trashy treats all on Blu Ray debuts.
Speaker 3: There's gonna be an ultra gory eighties Italian horror shocker
Speaker 3: that's gonna be a four K debut, and then gory
Speaker 3: ninety slasher that's gonna be another four K debut. In
Speaker 3: other words, there's gonna be a couple upgrades there. Stuff
Speaker 3: that's already been released on Blu Ray. April, We've got
Speaker 3: Lady in White on four K with all three versions
Speaker 3: of the film, and I got to say, big Lady
Speaker 3: and White fan, I love that movie. Eighties driving horror
Speaker 3: properly restored for the first time on disc. And that
Speaker 3: will be four K and Blu Ray, a classy and
Speaker 3: gory eighties Italian horror that'll be a four K debut.
Speaker 3: What does that mean? I'm very curious what that one's
Speaker 3: gonna be. May of course, it is the month of
Speaker 3: the big sales we've got. I think they might. They
Speaker 3: meant the word essential here. It says essentially Giallo in
Speaker 3: four K that's gonna be a debut. We've got Studio
Speaker 3: made mystery Slasher four K and Blu Ray and two
Speaker 3: hard hitting four K Blu Ray horror surprises.
Speaker 2: June, partners only.
Speaker 3: You get discounts. July, we've got all Horror made in
Speaker 3: Hong Kong set, which is very compelling. They took a
Speaker 3: long time to get volume two, and now we're getting
Speaker 3: volume three.
Speaker 2: Already.
Speaker 3: They are going to be putting out an eighty slasher
Speaker 3: four K and blu ray and an early nineties horror
Speaker 3: four K and blu ray. In August, we got four
Speaker 3: K and blu ray debut of a crazy eighties Italian horror,
Speaker 3: uncentered disc debut of jaw dropping Hong Kong thriller, and
Speaker 3: four K debut of an unnerving eighties horror sci fi.
Speaker 3: September three Vinegar Centrom releases, which are gonna be a
Speaker 3: four K double of classic early eighties horror, four K
Speaker 3: and Blu ray debut of Weird and It Says Glory
Speaker 3: eighties Italian horror, but I believe it's meant to be gory,
Speaker 3: and then a disk debut of an eerie seventies Hong
Speaker 3: Kong horror. October, we've got four releases. Four K and
Speaker 3: blu ray debut of nineties horror by a major director,
Speaker 3: disk debut of Hammer Rarity, four K debut of an
Speaker 3: eighties horror, and then a Shaw Scares set featuring three
Speaker 3: Shaw Brothers shockers, and then the last month with VS releases.
Speaker 3: For the year, we got a four K debut of
Speaker 3: two bloody classics by Genre Icons, along with two equally
Speaker 3: insane surprise releases. There is a lot, a lot to
Speaker 3: unpack there.
Speaker 2: Ama just guessing color of Nights so he can get
Speaker 2: Bruce Willis's Wang and four.
Speaker 3: K four K wang from the Bruce Thoughts and Prayers together.
Speaker 3: Indeed exciting thoughts. Obviously, you subscribed, so it sounds well,
Speaker 3: i'd you even take a look at this first?
Speaker 2: No, I did it? You know I've been I've been
Speaker 2: a subscriber for six seven years. Yep, So it's you know,
Speaker 2: it's kind of one of those I can't quit you things. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and I had been saving up all year and have
Speaker 2: the cash for it, and uh, this coming year, my
Speaker 2: challenge is to put in enough points to significantly reduce
Speaker 2: the cost if I, if I decide to continue in
Speaker 2: twenty twenty seven. But yeah, looks like a pretty exciting lineup.
Speaker 2: Typos aside, and.
Speaker 3: Lots of typos that that that is some of the
Speaker 3: worst copy from BSFCN.
Speaker 2: I will say this like, you know, you speculated about
Speaker 2: all the possible alterations and evolutions of subscriber packages, including
Speaker 2: like the idea of multiple tiers, but the main change
Speaker 2: they offered was by limiting the number, which.
Speaker 3: And they're giving people a metal card to be able
Speaker 3: to spend more money in their stores.
Speaker 2: Come on, give me, give me a fucking break. I'm
Speaker 2: giv sueing a metal card. Like, all that's going to
Speaker 2: do is cut the shit on my cat's mouths when
Speaker 2: they when they and when inevitably find it and knock
Speaker 2: it off, you know, the counter and play with it.
Speaker 2: I you know, I guess that increases FOMO, But I
Speaker 2: don't like that, Like, I don't know, it's they run
Speaker 2: their own business. But I would be irritated if I
Speaker 2: was two thousand and one, you know, yeah, like if
Speaker 2: I wanted to be a first time subscriber and was
Speaker 2: told no.
Speaker 3: Or what if you got paid on January fifth and
Speaker 3: it sells out all the subscriptions by January third, it's
Speaker 3: all eleven dollars.
Speaker 2: That's that's that's that's that's a bummer. You know, I don't.
Speaker 2: I don't. I'm not trying to talk shit. I'm just
Speaker 2: saying like that would bum me out. If I was
Speaker 2: a new.
Speaker 3: Subscriber, I would agree. So, yeah, we talked about the
Speaker 3: fomo aspect of it before and afterwards.
Speaker 2: There's actually some.
Speaker 3: Other people speculating on something that So this is just
Speaker 3: us conjecture, nothing like that. But one thing that I'm
Speaker 3: curious about. They are seeing all these partner label releases
Speaker 3: more more than twenty every single month.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 3: Some people are speculating, what if the partner labels were
Speaker 3: upset that they're selling so many discounted titles and so
Speaker 3: they're they're limiting it in a matter of getting less
Speaker 3: people to be able to get discounts.
Speaker 2: Well, I mean, you know, but you still get the
Speaker 2: opportunity for discounts and the sale months, you know, so.
Speaker 3: If they last though, I mean, if you're a subscriber,
Speaker 3: you like you couldn't get the Great Silence on sale
Speaker 3: if you wanted the slip cover.
Speaker 2: Well, you know. Reservoir Fella eighty eight makes a point,
Speaker 2: like I was saying to you, I was like, really
Speaker 2: vacillating is that the word of a radiant subscription versus
Speaker 2: a Deneger syndrome subscription. It was really the price difference
Speaker 2: with the with with the convert the you know, the
Speaker 2: monetary conversion that ultimately put me and yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: like I said earlier tonight, the partner labels are how
Speaker 2: I see newer movies for the most part, because it's
Speaker 2: all you know, they released the movies that I do
Speaker 2: not get into. I do not get to see in theaters.
Speaker 2: They're not in any theaters that I have access to. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but the metal card, that's just fucking stupid. I'll say
Speaker 2: that unreserveably, unreservedly vinegar syndrome. If you're listening, who gives
Speaker 2: a shit about a metal membership card? Like, what the hell?
Speaker 2: We're grown ups, not to mention send me a so
Speaker 2: on patch.
Speaker 3: Unless they do something different. And I don't live next
Speaker 3: to the that was fun?
Speaker 2: Am I gonna like check it out? Guys?
Speaker 3: Well, fuck, here's the thing, So I don't live next
Speaker 3: to their stores. If somebody, if somebody lives to their
Speaker 3: stores and you actually shop in the stores and it's different,
Speaker 3: please say something. But what I'm thinking is, if you're
Speaker 3: a subscriber, you're only getting discounts for stuff that came
Speaker 3: out this year. You're already buying everything that are You're
Speaker 3: already getting all the vs stuff that came out this year.
Speaker 3: So the only thing that you're getting discounted is partner
Speaker 3: labels that came out this year in their store, Vsu's
Speaker 3: VSAs and stuff like that. If you're wanting those, you're
Speaker 3: probably buying those anyways on the site. So the whole
Speaker 3: point of the card is to show it at a
Speaker 3: store and have them scanning QR code for what. I
Speaker 3: don't understand the appeal of.
Speaker 2: My email because I'm gonna have my phone, I'm probably
Speaker 2: not gonna have a metal card with even worse.
Speaker 3: Supposedly, somebody even stated like this was not hard. If
Speaker 3: you went to the store as a subscriber last year,
Speaker 3: you gave them your last name and they could find
Speaker 3: you in like twenty seconds. Yeah, what is the point?
Speaker 2: The metal card is kind of I'm just like, how
Speaker 2: old are we?
Speaker 3: I think that's more gimmicky than limiting it to two
Speaker 3: thousand myself.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm gonna instead of the metal card, I'm going
Speaker 2: to get that T shirt with the titties. I'm a
Speaker 2: grown up. Do you understand?
Speaker 3: You get the T shirt that spilled vinegar.
Speaker 2: I'm a grown man. Don't send me a metal card.
Speaker 2: Send me a tote bag.
Speaker 3: A toe bag that my cats can break. It was
Speaker 3: the dog but oh sorry sorry, all right, so that's
Speaker 3: vinegar syndrome. Any other thoughts on OC and vinegar syndrome
Speaker 3: this month? Because there was a lot of shit. I mean,
Speaker 3: it's a great slate.
Speaker 2: You know. I wanted to see every movie that was announced.
Speaker 3: That's impressive.
Speaker 2: I purchased more than I budgeted for and like made
Speaker 2: a like mental cart for whenever I'm able to do
Speaker 2: another uh spree. So you know, yeah, they convinced me
Speaker 2: to re up. I'm cool with it. I yeah, I
Speaker 2: like to get that box every month. Yeah, I get that.
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 3: This is that a Housemaid? Did you pack that I
Speaker 3: was talking about? This is the four Kid? It's available
Speaker 3: here in the US. I hate dig you packs? What's
Speaker 3: the did you pack those super thin pieces of shit
Speaker 3: like the old CDs used to get sold, like the
Speaker 3: cardboard not even like yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah that breaks it was yeah real quick? All right? Next,
Speaker 2: Oh that's something entirely different.
Speaker 3: Don't know why that's on my page. It's because I'm
Speaker 3: gonna be on Beyond the Blood this month, talking about
Speaker 3: the commentary for Torso. Yeah, it's gonna be a fun episode.
Speaker 2: I've never been on Beyond the Blood.
Speaker 3: Uh, Chris has talked about having you on, and I
Speaker 3: think he's a little intimidated. Well, I'll get Chris to
Speaker 3: invite you.
Speaker 2: Intimidated by what? By you? You're amazing? No, I'm not.
Speaker 2: Like we literally have just talked for almost three hours.
Speaker 3: Chris will is idiot.
Speaker 2: You know I'm serious on other podcasts.
Speaker 3: How do I get that? I'll ask counter, How I
Speaker 3: pull that out of you?
Speaker 2: Well, I mean it's whatever you want. You told me like, Hey,
Speaker 2: I need somebody to be entertaining because I can't carry
Speaker 2: the show alone.
Speaker 3: Hey, you know what brought you and I together, Monda Micabre.
Speaker 3: You want to talk about what's coming out in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty six from Monta Micabro. So they're putting out Morbo
Speaker 3: from nineteen seventy two. They're they're gonna be putting out
Speaker 3: The Blood Rose from nineteen seventy They're gonna be putting
Speaker 3: out Hell's Ground from two thousand and seven, which was
Speaker 3: a Mondo Micabro co production. Actually Pete Tombs helped produce
Speaker 3: that film. The Living Corpse from nineteen sixty seven is
Speaker 3: going to get an upgrade that's Dracula and Pakistan. House
Speaker 3: of the Loot from nineteen seventy nine is going to
Speaker 3: be getting released Hong Kong film. Any thoughts on those?
Speaker 3: By the way, these were all revealed on the Manda
Speaker 3: Macabra podcast.
Speaker 2: Check out the episode. It was a fun, fun conversation.
Speaker 2: That was a good episode. I was just telling you
Speaker 2: that I listened to that and enjoyed it. Really excited
Speaker 2: about all of these titles, which are unfamiliar to me
Speaker 2: other than the upgrade on Corpse. Yeah, you know when
Speaker 2: I you know, whenever I am of means, as I
Speaker 2: was saying earlier in the podcast, in the in the whatever,
Speaker 2: this is the show. I'm always like happily blind by
Speaker 2: Manda macabre bundles. You know, even if I get a
Speaker 2: film I don't like, I'm glad I saw it. They're
Speaker 2: they're the best, you know with uh. I don't think
Speaker 2: any label except perhaps Jeff Crocodile consistently released his films
Speaker 2: I've never heard of. Agreed, Agreed, I love that. It's
Speaker 2: a big deal.
Speaker 3: You know who else is always consistent and I'm very
Speaker 3: happy with all their releases, even though they don't put
Speaker 3: out enough. Grind House releasing and now you can pre
Speaker 3: order on February fourteenth.
Speaker 2: This is coming out. You can pre order it now.
Speaker 3: Scarlet Warning six six six. This is Palmer Rocky's Scarlet Warning.
Speaker 3: This is the first time ever on any home video
Speaker 3: and this stars Rocky as twin brothers in a story
Speaker 3: of satanic skullduggery, bizarre occult rituals, and demonic assassination on
Speaker 3: a country estate. The execution of this premise was so bewildering,
Speaker 3: insane and confident that the film was laughed off the
Speaker 3: screen at its Dallas premiere. This was eventually released in
Speaker 3: nineteen eighty as Scarlet Love, with an original soundtrack album
Speaker 3: featuring his own vocal stylings. When this Tube met with
Speaker 3: the audience mockery, Rocky attempted to frame the unintended laughs
Speaker 3: as keen satire. Rocky was still restricting is Frankenstein's Monster
Speaker 3: of a movie with new material.
Speaker 2: At the time of his death in nineteen ninety six.
Speaker 3: So this is gonna be a beautiful new remaster, lovingly
Speaker 3: restored in four K from the original thirty five millimeter negative.
Speaker 3: It's got provocative in depth interviews with the producer and
Speaker 3: a co star it's got additional interviews with punk rock
Speaker 3: icon Jello Biafra and legendary rare record connoisseurs Paul Major
Speaker 3: and Johnny Trunk. We had an audio commentary by Reverend
Speaker 3: Even Straying of the Church of the SubGenius, the original
Speaker 3: theatrical trailer, and extensive stills, galleries, glossy illustrated booklet with
Speaker 3: liner notes by exploitation historian Chris Paggiali, a em Boss
Speaker 3: slipcover with new arts. We've got blu ray cover painting
Speaker 3: by cult artist Dave Lebau, some stills, galleries, trailers, a
Speaker 3: bonus CD Scarlet Love Movie album, and then of course
Speaker 3: it's Grindhouse, which means there's gonna be all kinds of
Speaker 3: Easter eggs on this. There's gonna be like nine things
Speaker 3: hidden that you'll have to find as you go through it. Literally,
Speaker 3: I meant that at the beginning, consistently they put out
Speaker 3: packages that are always worth more than you pay for them.
Speaker 3: They're genuinely very high quality. I mean, look at the
Speaker 3: Beyond this year. It's like a six disc ridiculous release
Speaker 3: of incredibleness, but with stuff like this that I've never seen,
Speaker 3: never heard of in this case, it is likely to
Speaker 3: be something I genuinely appreciate.
Speaker 2: Any thoughts on this, sir. Oh, it's automatic. I told
Speaker 2: you my Jello biafre story.
Speaker 3: Maybe we've been doing this well so maybe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I probably did. We had when I did college radio,
Speaker 2: which coincides with the Jellobaphro story. In the radio station,
Speaker 2: we had this huge mural of Bob from the Church
Speaker 2: of SubGenius, and uh yeah, so this is this is automatic.
Speaker 2: I gotta get it nice, all right.
Speaker 3: The only other thing to cover tonight before we go
Speaker 3: into our other stuff.
Speaker 2: Oh jeez.
Speaker 3: Shelf Shock Rewind is wide open. You can vote now
Speaker 3: for a while. I will do my best copee. Shelf
Speaker 3: Shock Rewind twenty twenty five voting is open now. It
Speaker 3: will be open all month. For those of you that
Speaker 3: have not been around for the previous award ceremonies, this
Speaker 3: is going to be a live award ceremony hosted on
Speaker 3: this channel. On the shelf Shock Rewind channel all kinds
Speaker 3: of places, we get all kinds of people involved in
Speaker 3: physical media and films to come out and discuss all
Speaker 3: of their favorite releases from twenty twenty five. Last year,
Speaker 3: we had Sean Baker Joe Lynch, Francis Kloopi, Kyle Gollner
Speaker 3: even more involved.
Speaker 2: In the show.
Speaker 3: Is kind of wild. We'll get a bunch of people
Speaker 3: to discuss the categories that we're doing, reveal the winners.
Speaker 3: The labels will come out and say thank you and
Speaker 3: accept their awards. It's going to be even bigger. This
Speaker 3: is my last year co hosting this and I'm wanting
Speaker 3: to make it the best that I possibly can as
Speaker 3: I walk away from it. But it's gonna be a
Speaker 3: huge You can vote all month long. The voting will
Speaker 3: promptly close at midnight on the thirty first. The reason
Speaker 3: being we got to pick winners because the live show
Speaker 3: is gonna be on February fifteenth, we don't have much time.
Speaker 3: We got to figure out who won, do all the calculations,
Speaker 3: get them notified, get some videos recorded and scheduled, and
Speaker 3: all that fun stuff, and then edited. Because it's going
Speaker 3: to be an amazing show. This ends up being about
Speaker 3: two and a half hours. We do giveaways, we hang out.
Speaker 3: It is a blast. If you have never been a
Speaker 3: part of it, please come watch when it's live. But
Speaker 3: to make it the best that it can be, we need.
Speaker 2: All the people in the community to vote.
Speaker 3: Come out and vote. There are almost thirty different categories,
Speaker 3: everything ranging from Best Commentary of the Year, Best Visual Essay,
Speaker 3: Best Region a Release, Best box Set, Best Video Presentation,
Speaker 3: everything you can think of, basically to highlight all of
Speaker 3: the great things that come with these releases. And I
Speaker 3: hope that you guys love it because it is always
Speaker 3: a blast to do.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, I think it's really cool. I'm glad that.
Speaker 3: Who is it, Chris Higgins from Beyond the Blood.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad Chris is coming on taking over. I
Speaker 2: think it's this is going to sound like a weird compliment,
Speaker 2: but it's a genuine compliment. I think it's so cool
Speaker 2: that you're able to transition out of it because it
Speaker 2: shows that people have come to care about it and
Speaker 2: that it matters, and you know, it's not I mean,
Speaker 2: it's a truly crowdsourced kind of awards show that you know,
Speaker 2: doesn't feature the inept corruption of the Foreign Press Association
Speaker 2: like the Golden Globes or the absolute artistic vacuousness of
Speaker 2: the Oscars. This is actual fans who actually watched the
Speaker 2: stuff and and purchase the stuff and care. So I'm
Speaker 2: really I've never been asked to co host, but but
Speaker 2: that's probably good because I would I would be corrupt,
Speaker 2: which is which is why I you know, I actually.
Speaker 5: Abstained from from the nominations and voting this year because
Speaker 5: at this point I'm hopelessly biased.
Speaker 3: Well and for the record, to try to keep bias
Speaker 3: out of it. Any thing that was produced by someone's
Speaker 3: favorite productions was not allowed to be nominated this year.
Speaker 3: It sucks, and it's.
Speaker 2: Not because like objectively, but the best win every yeah,
Speaker 2: I wish win.
Speaker 3: Every Chris is saying, it's your last year? Will it
Speaker 3: still happen next year with someone else.
Speaker 2: That's gonna that's gonna shut deaf Crocodile out, isn't it? No?
Speaker 3: No, no no, If it's about the release, I just meant like,
Speaker 3: we can't win Best Visual Essay or right, Chris is
Speaker 3: asking it's my last year. Will it happen next year
Speaker 3: for someone else? That is the plan right now? And yes,
Speaker 3: it is my last year. This will be the fourth
Speaker 3: time in a row that I've done this, and it
Speaker 3: just it takes three months of my life essentially every
Speaker 3: time that I put this on, and it is Chris
Speaker 3: is taken over, right, that was hosting this year. He
Speaker 3: has not agreed to take it over every year, but.
Speaker 2: Uh, you're on, Chris, Well, we'll see.
Speaker 3: I definitely will be helping behind the scenes next year.
Speaker 3: But it's a lot.
Speaker 2: I just feel like Chris could make the best promos
Speaker 2: for it, because you know, I've talked about how much
Speaker 2: I enjoy his Instagram feed as like softcore pornography for
Speaker 2: film for you know, physical media.
Speaker 3: Collecting soft core filmography.
Speaker 2: Yeah, oh my gosh, like every time the soft lighting
Speaker 2: and it's like he'll go through the shelf and he'll
Speaker 2: pick some it's like ASMR for for like not perverts,
Speaker 2: you know. And uh, I just if he was doing
Speaker 2: stuff like that for shelf shock, I'd be like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm I'm gonna like I would have a party to
Speaker 2: watch it, you know, like invite people over. A person
Speaker 2: I would invite a person over. Yeah.
Speaker 3: ABC ninety nine d wants to know if we were
Speaker 3: going to go over the nominations.
Speaker 2: I can do that real quick.
Speaker 3: I don't want to make this part too too long,
Speaker 3: But here is the poll that you'll see and and
Speaker 3: for those of you that have never voted before, by
Speaker 3: the way, if you don't like the nominations, there is
Speaker 3: a rite in option on literally every single category, so

Speaker 3: Arsca Archive, all competing with the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle Trilogy.
Speaker 2: Well I'd take that over Wes Anderson.
Speaker 3: And then a couple more to cover here that I
Speaker 3: think are really cool. So we've got the small slate
Speaker 3: boutique labels that put out fifteen or less titles in
Speaker 3: one year. We've got def Crocodile, Fun City, Connie Second Site,
Speaker 3: and terror Vision. That's a very competitive market there.
Speaker 2: Well, TerrorVision definitely put out less than fifteen actually just
Speaker 2: barely ounce like one hundred, but yeah, something like that.
Speaker 3: And then from the large scale boutiques, we've got Arrow, Criterion, Radiance,
Speaker 3: Umbrella and Vinegar Syndrome. Umbrella came up and knocked out
Speaker 3: Keino this year.
Speaker 2: That's a tough Quino had a good year, man, I
Speaker 2: don't know, that's tough.
Speaker 3: A lot of people fell in love with Umbrella this year.
Speaker 2: Good year. But wow, that's all right.
Speaker 3: That's new label from this year. We've got Bizarro, Brainstorm Media,
Speaker 3: Hammer Films Club, Super Eight, and New Way Video. There
Speaker 3: are three that feel very deserving of this.
Speaker 2: To me. It's hard to think of Hammer as New.
Speaker 2: But yeah, like they've all of a sudden started. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So Best Region B Label we got Imprint, Radiance, Arrow,
Speaker 3: second Site and Umbrella. Best Region we got Criterion, Deaf, Crocodile, Keino,
Speaker 3: Severn and Vinegar Syndrome, and the best overall release Cafe
Speaker 3: Flesh getting its only nomination there.
Speaker 2: Severn got shut the fuck out this year, didn't they? Yes,
Speaker 2: they did.
Speaker 3: Severn did not get much shocking notice.
Speaker 2: I don't I don't know what to say about it.
Speaker 2: I think most of these nominations are boring.
Speaker 3: Actually boring interesting. I was kind of shocked and loved
Speaker 3: seeing that they felt quite varied this year. Like last
Speaker 3: year we had the Hitcher get nominated for like like
Speaker 3: fourteen or fifteen things.
Speaker 2: I guess that's true, but I felt like I was
Speaker 2: saying the same titles over and over. There's more, there's
Speaker 2: more options this year. Hey, you know, the people speak,
Speaker 2: you know, so who am I to ever question the
Speaker 2: votes of the people. All right, you want to talk
Speaker 2: about twenty twenty five?
Speaker 3: Nah, you want to go some some good things first?
Speaker 3: You want to talk about the other stuff?
Speaker 2: First? What good things do we have to say? Well?
Speaker 3: I was going to go through my run through, which
Speaker 3: I felt pretty good.
Speaker 2: About this year. Oh well, go ahead.
Speaker 3: So I saw more than one hundred and twenty five
Speaker 3: movies in the theater this year, the most I've ever
Speaker 3: seen by far. Hosted personally more than one hundred episodes
Speaker 3: of podcasts, guested on a ton of others we worked
Speaker 3: on or I worked on in some capacity. At least
Speaker 3: forty different home video releases this year. Wow for home
Speaker 3: video titles or box sets or what have you, went
Speaker 3: to two film festivals in person and attended a third.
Speaker 3: Virtually put out ten issues of the magazine in twenty
Speaker 3: twenty five. I couldn't get the exact number because it's insane,
Speaker 3: but I posted more than fifteen hundred physical media announcements
Speaker 3: on four different social media channels this year. WOW helped
Speaker 3: prepare and pitch a bunch of different things behind the scenes,
Speaker 3: hosted the Award Show last spring, posted ten different interviews
Speaker 3: on my channel, and have done four more that need
Speaker 3: to be edited and be posted, including one with I
Speaker 3: let this slip on social media with Joe Dante. Really
Speaker 3: need to get that edited and posted.
Speaker 2: Oops.
Speaker 3: Let's see flew to California twice, one of them surprising
Speaker 3: Jeremy Long. He had no idea I was coming. Did
Speaker 3: a bunch of stuff at home, including hosting family gatherings
Speaker 3: and holiday dinners and all that fun stuff with my family.
Speaker 3: Plus lost one hundred and twenty pounds this year. That
Speaker 3: was kind of crazy. And yeah, that was the good stuff.
Speaker 3: There's a lot of bad too.
Speaker 2: Congratulations, man, that's a good year. What about you, Well,
Speaker 2: you know, all the good stuff that happened. Work wise,
Speaker 2: we've talked about on the show. You know, it's been tough.
Speaker 2: You know, me and my wife both lost our jobs
Speaker 2: last in twenty twenty four, my wife in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: We were very lucky to find new work soon after,
Speaker 2: but we had several months with you know, health insurance
Speaker 2: issues and no income and stuff like that. So it
Speaker 2: was just it was challenging and we're you know, don't
Speaker 2: cry for me, Argentina. You know, we were fine, but
Speaker 2: it's been very stressful and I'm looking forward to twenty
Speaker 2: twenty six. And all that being said, it was a
Speaker 2: very lucky year in many ways. Started off with the
Speaker 2: having Sam Deagan come down to North Carolina and worked
Speaker 2: with Tiffany Sheppis and thanks to your connection Brian Husena
Speaker 2: did a virtual talk with my students and started doing conventions,
Speaker 2: started working conventions for Severn, whose films apparently are not
Speaker 2: good enough to be nominated for shelf Shock Award.
Speaker 3: By the way, the Sam Degan thing from last year
Speaker 3: feels like that was like two and a half years ago.
Speaker 2: Now it's been a long year. And yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: like I'm very grateful to have expanded the opportunities for
Speaker 2: my work as an academic, and we have a lot
Speaker 2: of cool stuff that we still can't talk about for
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six, and so I'm so so grateful for
Speaker 2: all of the good things, even as we all endure
Speaker 2: all the bad things. And you know, I talk about
Speaker 2: my problems, and I know so many people in the
Speaker 2: chat have struggled with their own shit, and that's one
Speaker 2: of the reasons I really like being part of this
Speaker 2: community and doing this show and being your friend, because
Speaker 2: they're the good parts of life. You know, A love
Speaker 2: my kids, they're good, pretty happy with them. But yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, you can get really myopic in your life
Speaker 2: because you're just stuck dealing with you what you have
Speaker 2: to do day to day. And I'm really glad that
Speaker 2: you like literally kept stock of all the good things
Speaker 2: that were happening to you. Really excited about your you know,
Speaker 2: improved health and all the work that you've been doing,
Speaker 2: and all the podcasts that you've been doing. You've built
Speaker 2: I make jokes about how you built an empire out
Speaker 2: of the ashes of COVID, but you have, and it's
Speaker 2: a It's the kind of empire that I can get behind.
Speaker 2: I'm glad to be a part of. So Yeah, congratulations man,
Speaker 2: Happy New Year. Happy. I can't wait for you to
Speaker 2: announce some of the things that are coming up so
Speaker 2: that I can pretend like I'm shitting on them, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean, Like I always I'm like, but like,
Speaker 2: I'm actually so excited and happy for you, and happy
Speaker 2: for us, and happy for everyone who gets to be
Speaker 2: a part of it. Really happy about getting to meet
Speaker 2: and work with so many of the cool people that
Speaker 2: are in this orbit, and people I haven't even gotten
Speaker 2: to work with yet that who have just kind of
Speaker 2: discovered through joining up with you, you know, Erica and
Speaker 2: Michelle and so many other people that I hadn't been
Speaker 2: familiar with before. Bill Ackerman, you know, like all these
Speaker 2: people that like, just over the last two years, I've
Speaker 2: been like, holy shit, where are these people been my
Speaker 2: whole life? You know, I've been enriched. So yeah, there's been.
Speaker 2: There's been a lot of good stuff in twenty twenty
Speaker 2: five to bring some light in an otherwise pretty dark year.
Speaker 2: But one thing happens this year that like depressed me
Speaker 2: more than any other. I I don't think I've ever
Speaker 2: cried as much over the death of someone that I
Speaker 2: didn't know personally. Then last month, when Josh Becker died,
Speaker 2: As anybody who's ever seen me on your show knows,
Speaker 2: Josh Becker's a filmmaker who's work means a lot to me.
Speaker 2: And I was so sad because for months and years
Speaker 2: I've been talking about how much I wanted to reach
Speaker 2: out to Josh Becker and interview him for your show,
Speaker 2: for the Channel, to talk about his work too. I
Speaker 2: did a whole thing about his his documentary that didn't
Speaker 2: even merit its own release, Other people's, other other people's careers,
Speaker 2: which is on the SYNAPS release of Invaluable. Josh Becker
Speaker 2: got his start in Michigan working with Bruce Campbell and
Speaker 2: Sam Ramie and Ted Raimi doing shorts and The Evil
Speaker 2: Dad and everything and h I love his work and
Speaker 2: I wish I got it hot to him. I was
Speaker 2: really stupid not to not to reach out to him.
Speaker 2: So check out Josh Becker's stuff. You can get us books,
Speaker 2: Gospel of Judas, super funny, Hitler in the Madhouse, super funny,
Speaker 2: two novels, great memoir, Going Hollywood Essays, Brushes. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go off for a second.
Speaker 3: Okay, this was a hard year. There was a lot
Speaker 3: of stuff that happened this year that uh took us
Speaker 3: by storm, that allowed us to get closer together, that
Speaker 3: allowed the community to come together. As Will was super vulnerable.
Speaker 3: I'm going to take the moment so that we don't
Speaker 3: necessarily bring it down again. But just in the last
Speaker 3: couple of days, I find out that one of the patrons,
Speaker 3: actually one of the patrons of the show, just passed away,
Speaker 3: not even two weeks ago, now thirteen days ago. A
Speaker 3: friend of mine, Josh Phillips. He had written for the
Speaker 3: magazine a couple of times. I spoke to him all
Speaker 3: the time through social media, lives or lived three and
Speaker 3: a half four hours away from me. I had never
Speaker 3: known that. If I did, I probably would have made
Speaker 3: a little more of an effort to try to meet
Speaker 3: in person. I've done that with many people for this,
Speaker 3: and Josh's wife reached out to me to let me
Speaker 3: know that he passed away and was apologizing for needing
Speaker 3: to stop contributing to the Patreon, and the only thing
Speaker 3: I can think is, I I don't care. The Patreon
Speaker 3: was not there for that. I wanted the community, and
Speaker 3: this community has done so much that I long to
Speaker 3: be with you guys every single Thursday. And it's not
Speaker 3: even just Thursday, because so many of you I messaged
Speaker 3: throughout the week. I mean, at least on two, three, four,
Speaker 3: at least five of the names literally visible in the
Speaker 3: comment section right now on my screen I've spoken to
Speaker 3: in a chat outside of a Thursday night in the
Speaker 3: last seven days. Literally multiple of those people I have
Speaker 3: texted with my home phone number, with my own personal
Speaker 3: cell number. I I do not treat this like a
Speaker 3: chat section, or like somebody needs to pay me or
Speaker 3: anything like that. These are all genuinely my friends, and
Speaker 3: to hear that one of them passed away just thirteen
Speaker 3: days ago fucking broke me. I don't know what else
Speaker 3: to say, and I know that it's super cliche to
Speaker 3: say reach out if you need it. But finding out
Speaker 3: that one of those people took their own life and
Speaker 3: I didn't put more time into it made me feel wrecked.
Speaker 3: And Will and I are both people that are there
Speaker 3: to listen to people. We have been here for other
Speaker 3: people going through crises. Fuck, I don't even know what
Speaker 3: to say. It's too cliche to say reach out if
Speaker 3: you need it, but genuinely I don't. I respond to
Speaker 3: every single person in the world that messages the disconnected
Speaker 3: on any platform. I'm always here to text, to email,
Speaker 3: two d M, to joke in the discord, to respond
Speaker 3: to every single YouTube comment. This all means so much
Speaker 3: more than just home video and finding that community has
Speaker 3: been one of the most enriching things in my life.
Speaker 2: In a way. It's nice to feel pain, you know,
Speaker 2: when when people pass, because it it means that that
Speaker 2: something matters to you. Yeah, And you know, the people
Speaker 2: in this community are are so important because they're well
Speaker 2: first and foremost because they're human beings, but also because
Speaker 2: we share these these interests and the things that we love,
Speaker 2: and so I'm very grateful to have been welcomed into
Speaker 2: this community. You know, I'm new to it. A couple
Speaker 2: of years. I'm glad to have stumbled into your orbit, Ryan,
Speaker 2: and you know, it's a reminder that that you should
Speaker 2: not ever hesitate to reach out to people that you
Speaker 2: want to talk to. You know, in the case of Becker,
Speaker 2: who's a filmmaker that and a writer who's every day,
Speaker 2: every day for the last twenty six years, since nineteen
Speaker 2: ninety nine, every day I read something that Josh Becker wrote,
Speaker 2: either on his website or over the last couple of
Speaker 2: years on a sub stack. He wasn't the you know,
Speaker 2: he's not Wars and Wells or anything, but he was
Speaker 2: a He was a filmmaker who was unabashedly himself and
Speaker 2: had really provocative and interesting and well informed opinions about film.
Speaker 2: And so I I really regret not being able to
Speaker 2: tell him, uh how much he meant to me. Of
Speaker 2: course that you know, I sound like some guy's stalking
Speaker 2: Taylor Swift, like what's the difference, But you know, really
Speaker 2: it was an opportunity that passed by. And one thing
Speaker 2: that I'm glad about is that my having met you,
Speaker 2: Ryan has pushed me to reach out to not just
Speaker 2: filmmakers that I admire and want to speak to and
Speaker 2: work with, but also other writers and researchers who produce
Speaker 2: stuff for discs, and people in the chat, people in
Speaker 2: the I'm not super active in the discord, but I've
Speaker 2: gotten to talk to a lot of people. You know,
Speaker 2: even Sidner is okay when it comes down to it.
Speaker 2: You know, he's a human being as well, and I'd
Speaker 2: feel bad if something bad happened to him. Now, I
Speaker 2: like Sidner, So I don't know. How do you think
Speaker 2: we're gonna land this one carefully? You you got through
Speaker 2: without crying. Not entirely did a good job, though you did.
Speaker 2: You cried like a like a man. I I let it,
Speaker 2: I let it out, and I was like, I gotta go.
Speaker 2: You know, you were able to handle it. You were close,
Speaker 2: you were giving a tribute though, Like that was good ship.

Speaker 3: the Josh that was closer to my side that I'm
Speaker 3: talking about. His wife needs a lot of help right now.
Speaker 3: She was left in a really bad position. And something
Speaker 3: I've always tried to do with this with a little
Speaker 3: bit of outreach is to try to help people.
Speaker 2: And when I lost.
Speaker 3: Another friend last year through this, this community turned out
Speaker 3: in ways that I did not expect, and we sent
Speaker 3: that family like four thousand dollars to give to give
Speaker 3: to his daughter to go to college, and we got
Speaker 3: a lot of his collection sold off and helped raise
Speaker 3: money for the family that they could never have dreamed
Speaker 3: of happening. Oh boy, there's definitely gonna be something coming
Speaker 3: out in this next week where this family needs help
Speaker 3: to And if anybody has money left after subscriber week,
Speaker 3: has the ability to put anything out there to help
Speaker 3: somebody that is not in a situation where they were
Speaker 3: planning on dealing with this, I'd really appreciate the community
Speaker 3: showing up there too. And I don't even share all
Speaker 3: those Another friend on Facebook, just like five weeks ago,
Speaker 3: right after he lost his job and before he got
Speaker 3: medical insurance, was in a major car accident and literally
Speaker 3: broke his neck, and through one of our Facebook groups,
Speaker 3: we just raised a bunch of money and literally hand
Speaker 3: delivered it to him and his family, all through physical media.
Speaker 3: I'm so just thrilled that everybody that has been surrounding
Speaker 3: this has been so kind and generous and willing to
Speaker 3: help out. And every single time, I give as much
Speaker 3: as I possibly can, and I've seen other people do
Speaker 3: the exact same thing, and I don't know how to
Speaker 3: thank you. It is astonishing to see the people come
Speaker 3: together like this. It just sucks that so much of
Speaker 3: us need help right now, because I know that many
Speaker 3: of us are struggling, and twenty twenty five was a
Speaker 3: bitch for so many reasons, in a way that many
Speaker 3: of us felt that we've never felt before, including myself.
Speaker 3: I mean, my day job is far from safe at
Speaker 3: this point, and I just looking forward to twenty twenty six.
Speaker 3: I sincerely hope that anything that's a part of that improves.
Speaker 2: And twenty five.
Speaker 7: OCNS, Yeah, Jesus, this is I didn't expect it to.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so yeah, I hope that. I hope that we
Speaker 2: can help out a little bit. Yeah.
Speaker 3: On that note, genuinely what I said earlier, If you
Speaker 3: need anything, both of us are here.
Speaker 2: Please reach out.
Speaker 3: Just Ryan, I'll give you Wheel's home address. Hell, he's
Speaker 3: already shown that you can rescue cats.
Speaker 2: You might be next if you're a cat.
Speaker 3: On the plus side, there's no more loops in his house.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Like, see, you set me up for a joke
Speaker 2: that now I can't make. Well. Genuinely, I love you.
Speaker 3: You're one of my closest friends, and doing what we
Speaker 3: do together throughout the year has made everything so much
Speaker 3: more enjoyable.
Speaker 2: So thank you. Well. I remain emotionally hamstrung by my upbringing,
Speaker 2: but I can say, honestly, Ryan, I you too.
Speaker 3: I was waiting for the word tolerate, but I'll take that.
