Full Transcript for The Friday Nightmares Podcast: Episode 101

end of the year list. 37 00:03:24,426 --> 00:03:28,750 So I figured we might as well just get her done because 38 00:03:29,290 --> 00:03:33,538 it's, it's slowing down quite intensely. 39 00:03:33,634 --> 00:03:37,234 So. Yeah, and I've, I think I've been just burnt out on like the 40 00:03:37,242 --> 00:03:40,690 ones that I've watched over this last year. So I've been taking 41 00:03:40,730 --> 00:03:43,938 a break and doing a lot of Christmas horror films and 42 00:03:43,994 --> 00:03:47,340 some older horror films. And. Yeah, just kind of just 43 00:03:47,380 --> 00:03:51,148 wrapping up. I got a couple big ones or at least fairly big ones 44 00:03:51,164 --> 00:03:54,700 I still gotta watch. But yeah, I'm thinking I thought I was 45 00:03:54,740 --> 00:03:58,332 gonna be at close to 121, 25. I think I'm gonna be closer to 46 00:03:58,356 --> 00:04:02,428 110 to 115. Hey, you know, this is my lowest year 47 00:04:02,484 --> 00:04:05,852 at 160. Yeah. One year I 48 00:04:05,876 --> 00:04:09,932 was like last year I was 189. In 2022, 49 00:04:09,956 --> 00:04:13,682 I was 205. And then in 2021, I was 50 00:04:13,836 --> 00:04:17,846 208. So I'm. I'm okay with it. 51 00:04:17,918 --> 00:04:20,850 I. You know, especially now as we slow down, 52 00:04:21,870 --> 00:04:25,430 it was. It's been hard. Some. I. I watched some that I just thought were 53 00:04:25,470 --> 00:04:28,570 silly for fun. For funsies. 54 00:04:29,150 --> 00:04:32,870 But I figured we ended off. The last one we're going to talk 55 00:04:32,910 --> 00:04:36,054 about is probably the. The prize pig, to be honest. 56 00:04:36,182 --> 00:04:39,446 Um, so we'll talk about that. But, yeah, it's been. 57 00:04:39,598 --> 00:04:42,682 It's been a year. It's been a year of 58 00:04:42,706 --> 00:04:46,266 up and downs for me. Some real good ups of 59 00:04:46,338 --> 00:04:49,870 going away and seeing my friends in England, going to France, 60 00:04:50,370 --> 00:04:53,466 all the podcasting I've done with Scotty, many a nights 61 00:04:53,498 --> 00:04:56,954 out with friends, and of course, the down of my dad passing away this year. 62 00:04:57,042 --> 00:05:00,138 Yeah, but. But, you know, 63 00:05:00,274 --> 00:05:03,514 we continue on and I'm forever grateful for a brother 64 00:05:03,562 --> 00:05:06,786 like Scotty who got me through even, you know, 65 00:05:06,898 --> 00:05:10,210 miles. Miles and miles away. The love was very transparent. 66 00:05:10,290 --> 00:05:13,362 So thank you again, Scotty, for all you do. And I'm excited for 67 00:05:13,386 --> 00:05:17,090 2025 to celebrate yourself and Erica's wedding. That's something that I'm looking forward 68 00:05:17,130 --> 00:05:20,450 to. Yeah. Saying thank you for being such a good friend. You've helped me out 69 00:05:20,490 --> 00:05:24,194 through so much over the years as well. So it's, you know, that's what brothers 70 00:05:24,242 --> 00:05:27,218 and sisters, or as close friends like

we are do. We. 71 00:05:27,274 --> 00:05:30,690 That's true. We're there for each other and like premium podcasters do. 72 00:05:30,730 --> 00:05:33,790 Yeah, exactly, exactly. You know, we're like the. 73 00:05:34,090 --> 00:05:38,058 We're like the Tomahawks stake of podcasters. We're gonna go food 74 00:05:38,114 --> 00:05:41,482 route. I love it. I love it. 75 00:05:41,586 --> 00:05:45,110 I haven't listened to the most recent Horror for Dummies, and I need to. 76 00:05:46,130 --> 00:05:49,482 Yeah, I. I always. They always make me 77 00:05:49,506 --> 00:05:52,362 laugh, especially when they make fun of me, because I'm sure people listen to that 78 00:05:52,386 --> 00:05:55,642 show. They'd be like, oh, man, this Heather Girls are real. See you next Tuesday. 79 00:05:55,826 --> 00:05:59,450 And I. I think I do definitely present a specific 80 00:05:59,530 --> 00:06:02,790 Persona on this show that's super sized to who I actually am. 81 00:06:03,580 --> 00:06:06,756 But that's okay. That's what we do here. And we made it over to. 82 00:06:06,828 --> 00:06:09,892 We made it over a hundred episodes, so congratulations to us. 83 00:06:09,996 --> 00:06:12,916 We're 101 Dalmatians, 101 episodes in, 84 00:06:12,988 --> 00:06:16,388 and we'll. We'll wrap up this very mediocre year, 85 00:06:16,444 --> 00:06:19,320 I guess, in horror with. With some standouts. 86 00:06:19,900 --> 00:06:24,244 Yeah, I think so. Like. Right, yeah. The. The 2024 awards show 87 00:06:24,332 --> 00:06:28,020 shall be interesting to say the least. I think this will be the first 88 00:06:28,060 --> 00:06:31,332 year where our lists will be very, very opposite. Um, 89 00:06:31,396 --> 00:06:34,868 I can't actually even predict, actually. I have an idea of some of them. 90 00:06:34,924 --> 00:06:38,308 I think Scott and I might have some crossover, but I think 91 00:06:38,364 --> 00:06:42,068 overall, there might be some very different thoughts on the year. 92 00:06:42,124 --> 00:06:45,780 Like, for example, obviously, that Mickey Mouse movie that came out this year is my 93 00:06:45,820 --> 00:06:48,452 number one film of the year. What was that called? Dead Mouse or something like 94 00:06:48,476 --> 00:06:51,716 that. Mousetrap. Mousetrap. The Mousetrap. 95 00:06:51,748 --> 00:06:54,560 Yes. Clearly that's the best film of the year. So I. 96 00:06:55,020 --> 00:06:58,892 It's. And it's as well put together as the board game Mousetrap. 97 00:06:58,996 --> 00:07:01,772 It is. It's. It's about the same quality, 98 00:07:01,836 --> 00:07:05,400 though Haunt season sure did give it a run for its money. 99 00:07:05,780 --> 00:07:09,212 Yeah. Fortunately. And this 100 00:07:09,236 --> 00:07:12,508 is also the year of folklore in terms of bags. Bake Head. 101 00:07:12,564 --> 00:07:14,920 Bag man. There's been a lot of bags this year. 102 00:07:15,620 --> 00:07:19,276 And in the one that I still just don't want to watch, 103 00:07:19,348 --> 00:07:22,604 just because the title. Daddy's Head. Oh, yes, 104 00:07:22,652 --> 00:07:25,948 yes, Daddy's Head. Yes, I saw Daddy's Head. I. The whole 105 00:07:25,964 --> 00:07:29,372 time was like. I know, 106 00:07:29,396 --> 00:07:32,664 because I showed Connor the title, and he's like, what the hell? 107 00:07:32,792 --> 00:07:36,020 I'm like, yeah, it's a terrible title. It's so good. 108 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,020 We should all watch it together. 109 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:42,440 Oh, he'd probably lose his damn mind. You know what I really 110 00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:46,088 hope is that for Sakes Blumhouse, can you do better next year, 111 00:07:46,144 --> 00:07:49,060 please? For the love of God, can you please just. 112 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,984 God damn it. Can you just pull something out of your ass? 113 00:07:53,072 --> 00:07:56,152 Oh, actually, 824 is dropping. That kind of New Year's 114 00:07:56,216 --> 00:07:59,304 22,000 movie. That looks pretty. Oh, yeah. Y2K that. Yeah. 115 00:07:59,352 --> 00:08:02,884 Say, that looks fun. I don't know if that's being dropped before the. Of the 116 00:08:02,892 --> 00:08:05,828 year or not. I think it is. Is it? 117 00:08:05,884 --> 00:08:09,364 So that might be the only other one besides Offeratu that we are, I don't 118 00:08:09,372 --> 00:08:12,436 know, gonna ever talk about again. 119 00:08:12,588 --> 00:08:15,812 And hopefully I'll see both of them before we do 120 00:08:15,836 --> 00:08:18,080 our award show. But we shall see. Right? 121 00:08:19,260 --> 00:08:23,012 Anyway, we'll get into our 2024s, so we'll start off with this first 122 00:08:23,036 --> 00:08:27,000 one. I've been saying this name incorrectly. Is this Heretic? 123 00:08:27,340 --> 00:08:30,260 Heretic. Okay. This is a 2024 film. 124 00:08:30,300 --> 00:08:33,540 It was a theater watch. Hugh Grant is in this 125 00:08:33,580 --> 00:08:36,340 as the vil was quite a pleasant surprise. 126 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:40,112 The question. Question everything. Two young missionaries 127 00:08:40,176 --> 00:08:43,616 are forced to prove their fate when they knock on the wrong door 128 00:08:43,648 --> 00:08:48,112 and are greeted by a diabolical Mr. Reed becoming ensnared 129 00:08:48,176 --> 00:08:50,500 in a deadly game of cat and mouse. 130 00:08:51,480 --> 00:08:55,152 This is a really, really great religious themed 131 00:08:55,216 --> 00:08:58,592 horror film. Hugh Grant, I, like, I could take 132 00:08:58,616 --> 00:09:01,712 or leave Hugh Grant. Like, I think he's a decent actor, but there's nothing that 133 00:09:01,736 --> 00:09:04,016 I've seen him in that I'm like, oh, man, Hugh Grant's in this movie. 134 00:09:04,048 --> 00:09:07,762 I can't wait to watch it. Right, right. But I 135 00:09:07,786 --> 00:09:11,570 think, you know, as a. As a villain here, I think he really 136 00:09:11,690 --> 00:09:15,106 portrayed a strong antagonist. 137 00:09:15,218 --> 00:09:18,338 Really,

really strong antagonist who you, you know, 138 00:09:18,394 --> 00:09:21,890 start, like, just is creepy the entire time and is 139 00:09:21,930 --> 00:09:25,470 unnerving and as only Hugh Grant can be. 140 00:09:26,010 --> 00:09:29,346 And I think the reviews echo that. Like, we're looking 141 00:09:29,418 --> 00:09:32,624 at. Duncan McLeish gave it four and a half stars. 142 00:09:32,762 --> 00:09:35,560 Rob the Hump gave it four and a half stars. 143 00:09:36,380 --> 00:09:40,052 I don't. Dave Bailey gave it four stars. Or Sandra Kane is his 144 00:09:40,076 --> 00:09:44,120 stripper name. Gave it four stars. 145 00:09:44,540 --> 00:09:48,212 And Sander recently found out that I would definitely pay 146 00:09:48,236 --> 00:09:52,052 to have him as a stripper. That's why he's not listening to 147 00:09:52,076 --> 00:09:54,320 the show anymore. He's like, 148 00:09:54,860 --> 00:09:58,372 heather's a creep anyway. But, yeah, this is 149 00:09:58,396 --> 00:10:01,700 good. I don't think you've watched it yet, have you, Scotty? No, because it's only 150 00:10:01,740 --> 00:10:04,452 been in the theater and I have and have not had a chance to go 151 00:10:04,476 --> 00:10:08,804 to the theater recently because, you know, Erica had her hysterectomy 152 00:10:08,852 --> 00:10:12,484 and, you know, the. For theater seats and everything like that and car drives, 153 00:10:12,532 --> 00:10:16,340 it would have been uncomfortable for. But yeah, we just been 154 00:10:16,380 --> 00:10:19,492 busy, you know, with holiday stuff going on and. Because we had 155 00:10:19,516 --> 00:10:23,220 Thanksgiving and Christmas in full force now, and we 156 00:10:23,260 --> 00:10:27,092 already got our Christmas tree up, our presents wrapped, all that stuff. All I'm hearing 157 00:10:27,156 --> 00:10:30,650 is excuses. Except. And I thought I was podcasting with Premium Podcaster, 158 00:10:30,730 --> 00:10:34,442 not Daniel and Tim. No, you're. For you. You're dealing with the 159 00:10:34,466 --> 00:10:36,670 Kraft Mac and Cheese of podcasting. 160 00:10:40,050 --> 00:10:43,674 That's funny. No, this is one I really want to 161 00:10:43,682 --> 00:10:46,554 see, though. I think you'll enjoy it. I think Erica will enjoy it too. 162 00:10:46,642 --> 00:10:49,370 It's very much a game of cat and mouse. And the less you know about 163 00:10:49,410 --> 00:10:53,530 going into it, the better. All I can say is that there's three main characters. 164 00:10:53,690 --> 00:10:57,578 Sophie Thatcher, Cleo east, and Hugh Grant. And they put together 165 00:10:57,714 --> 00:11:01,242 an incredible performance. Like, I am nothing but praise 166 00:11:01,306 --> 00:11:05,194 for the three of them. Whoever did the hiring and the casting for this movie 167 00:11:05,242 --> 00:11:09,578 knew exactly what they were fucking talking about. But it is dialect heavy, 168 00:11:09,674 --> 00:11:13,162 so be prepared for a Lot of talking. This isn't a movie that

you can 169 00:11:13,186 --> 00:11:16,442 play on your phone. You know, there's some movies out there, like, 170 00:11:16,466 --> 00:11:19,802 I'll talk about them, where you could go on your phone for 20 minutes, 171 00:11:19,866 --> 00:11:22,954 come back and you know, generally get what's going on. Right. This is not one 172 00:11:22,962 --> 00:11:26,794 of them. You do have to stay focused for the 111 minutes. 173 00:11:26,842 --> 00:11:30,842 And I will say it was unpredictable and 174 00:11:30,946 --> 00:11:34,666 I really, really did enjoy this, so recommend it. 175 00:11:34,738 --> 00:11:38,362 We may see this again at the end of the year. So the 176 00:11:38,386 --> 00:11:41,690 next one here. Did you watch this one? No, you. At first 177 00:11:41,730 --> 00:11:45,322 you were selling me on it and then it didn't sound like it 178 00:11:45,346 --> 00:11:48,794 would have been worth it. Yeah, this, this got weird 179 00:11:48,842 --> 00:11:52,298 real quickly. So this is called rumors. It's a 2024 film. 180 00:11:52,354 --> 00:11:56,138 It was released at TIFF this year, which is Toronto International Film Festival. 181 00:11:56,234 --> 00:12:00,470 I can just hear Rob the Hump now. Find me a real 2024. 182 00:12:02,290 --> 00:12:05,994 Anyway, the official motion picture of the G7. 183 00:12:06,082 --> 00:12:09,626 So en route to the annual G7 summit, seven leaders of the world's 184 00:12:09,658 --> 00:12:13,146 wealthiest liberal democracies get lost in the woods 185 00:12:13,178 --> 00:12:16,874 and facing increasing peril while attempting to drop a provisional 186 00:12:16,922 --> 00:12:21,354 statement regarding a global crisis. So Cate Blanchett 187 00:12:21,402 --> 00:12:25,438 and Roy Dupreece are some of the most recognizable names here. 188 00:12:25,494 --> 00:12:29,086 Though as you go through the other characters that play world leaders, 189 00:12:29,158 --> 00:12:31,530 you will have definitely seen them in other things. 190 00:12:32,710 --> 00:12:37,250 This kind of starts off as a mystery 191 00:12:38,710 --> 00:12:41,566 and it gets really weird. 192 00:12:41,758 --> 00:12:45,950 I will say that the first half is very engaging 193 00:12:46,110 --> 00:12:49,870 with the situation that these political leaders find themselves 194 00:12:49,950 --> 00:12:53,456 in regarding a global crisis and how they're trying 195 00:12:53,528 --> 00:12:57,392 to manage it. Then it gets kind of odd, like, then it 196 00:12:57,416 --> 00:13:01,536 just. It kind of goes off the rocker like only a film that's shown 197 00:13:01,568 --> 00:13:05,392 at a film festival can do. And I'm not quite sure if I got 198 00:13:05,416 --> 00:13:09,072 the point of the ending. I will say the acting is 199 00:13:09,096 --> 00:13:12,048 out of this world. The set design is amazing. 200 00:13:12,144 --> 00:13:16,048 And the first half of it, we're looking at a runtime. What is it 201 00:13:16,104 --> 00:13:20,020 here? Why does

it not say the runtime? Oh, 104 minutes. 202 00:13:20,400 --> 00:13:24,136 I would say just about 70 to 80% of it's really solid. 203 00:13:24,168 --> 00:13:27,656 And then it gets really weird. And I don't. I don't know who to recommend 204 00:13:27,688 --> 00:13:31,432 this to. I think the first half is really 205 00:13:31,456 --> 00:13:35,192 great for a lot of people. And then it kind of goes this weird kind 206 00:13:35,216 --> 00:13:38,520 of sci fi, but not sci fi vibe 207 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:42,072 to it. Either way, if you like film festival stuff and you 208 00:13:42,096 --> 00:13:45,192 like things that are unique and different, I think this 209 00:13:45,216 --> 00:13:48,898 may be a film for you. There's really no one else that's watched it 210 00:13:48,954 --> 00:13:52,674 in our little community? Just me, because I'm a premium 211 00:13:52,722 --> 00:13:55,682 podcaster. But if anyone's interested, 212 00:13:55,746 --> 00:13:58,834 is available on Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon, 213 00:13:58,962 --> 00:14:02,434 YouTube and Microsoft Store. I would say you gotta 214 00:14:02,482 --> 00:14:06,002 really like kind of like political horror, really heavy dialogue 215 00:14:06,146 --> 00:14:10,450 and that typical kind of film festival, artsy out 216 00:14:10,490 --> 00:14:13,602 there kind of plot. If that's what you like, this will be a movie for 217 00:14:13,626 --> 00:14:16,862 you. If not, I don't think anyone needs to watch it for their 218 00:14:16,886 --> 00:14:20,110 end of year list. So good to know because, yeah, this one did have me 219 00:14:20,150 --> 00:14:23,118 curious. And as you kept talking to me about it, I'm just like, okay, 220 00:14:23,134 --> 00:14:26,750 I'm interested. Okay, yeah. This next one 221 00:14:26,790 --> 00:14:30,398 I'm thinking you probably have not seen. No. All right, so this is one 222 00:14:30,454 --> 00:14:34,126 I watched last night. It's called he sees you when you're 223 00:14:34,158 --> 00:14:38,398 sleeping, directed by Charles Steed and has an 83 minute runtime. 224 00:14:38,574 --> 00:14:42,862 Chester returns to the home of his estranged and hideously overprivileged 225 00:14:42,926 --> 00:14:46,782 family at Christmas, only to find an unknown killer disguised 226 00:14:46,846 --> 00:14:50,350 in a Santa outfit is stalking and killing family members one 227 00:14:50,390 --> 00:14:53,422 by one in order to claim the huge family fortune. 228 00:14:53,486 --> 00:14:56,862 Which one of them is the killer? Well, that's kind 229 00:14:56,886 --> 00:15:01,198 of a weird synopsis because it starts off that this character, 230 00:15:01,294 --> 00:15:05,294 Chester, as a kid in 1963 231 00:15:05,382 --> 00:15:08,878 or so, has wakes up on 232 00:15:08,934 --> 00:15:12,386 like, Christmas Day to a stage Santa killer killing 233 00:15:12,418 --> 00:15:16,786 his mom and dad, and then it jumps into the future like another 234 00:15:16,858 --> 00:15:20,322 horror movie. It's been in a couple. Yeah, like, that's been 235 00:15:20,346 --> 00:15:24,274 a theme of a couple different. Yeah, okay, I thought so. 236 00:15:24,442 --> 00:15:28,242 But this one that jumps into, like the 80s and 237 00:15:28,346 --> 00:15:31,474 then he go. Then he goes back to his estranged family. So there's like that 238 00:15:31,482 --> 00:15:34,802 piece that's missing from the synopsis, but this kid or this guy, 239 00:15:34,866 --> 00:15:38,750 you know, meets up with his family and he is such an 240 00:15:39,050 --> 00:15:43,062 like for a main character. Like, he is a dick to everybody. 241 00:15:43,126 --> 00:15:46,742 That's not even like his family, just people that are being friendly to 242 00:15:46,766 --> 00:15:50,486 him, like old neighbors. And he's just a dick to him going, okay, 243 00:15:50,518 --> 00:15:52,966 So I can see where this is going. There's not going to be a single 244 00:15:52,998 --> 00:15:57,334 likable character in this film. All right? And Caroline Williams 245 00:15:57,462 --> 00:16:00,854 is in this. Oh, okay. So I was like, okay, this could be good 246 00:16:00,942 --> 00:16:04,566 or could be bad. Yeah, she has hit her best. 247 00:16:04,718 --> 00:16:07,562 And yeah, this was not good. 248 00:16:07,666 --> 00:16:10,698 It was dumb. How you say that. 249 00:16:10,754 --> 00:16:14,538 Not good, not good. It was dumb. 250 00:16:14,634 --> 00:16:18,282 I didn't care about the reveal at the end about the killer 251 00:16:18,346 --> 00:16:21,834 Santa. I didn't care that anyone was getting Killed. 252 00:16:21,882 --> 00:16:25,146 Because you don't like any of these characters. So there was no sense 253 00:16:25,178 --> 00:16:28,506 of. Oh, no. It was more. Oh, okay. Anyways, 254 00:16:28,618 --> 00:16:31,754 moving on. Enough. Oh, no. The United Healthcare 255 00:16:31,802 --> 00:16:35,270 CEO died. Oh, Anyways, moving that type of. 256 00:16:37,710 --> 00:16:41,590 So that's pretty much how this movie felt. Oh, this. It just. There was 257 00:16:41,630 --> 00:16:45,558 nothing good about it. The Christmas atmosphere was okay. 258 00:16:45,654 --> 00:16:49,510 Terrifier 3 did a better Christmas atmosphere than this 259 00:16:49,550 --> 00:16:52,966 movie did. And, yeah, they just. Yeah. I've been watching 260 00:16:52,998 --> 00:16:56,614 a lot of questionable Christmas horror 261 00:16:56,662 --> 00:17:00,570 films, and yet this falls in that category of questionable. 262 00:17:00,910 --> 00:17:04,518 Yeah. Not one I'd recommend. Unless you're just needing a. 263 00:17:04,574 --> 00:17:07,380 You're in the mood for a Christmas horror movie. I would agree, 264 00:17:07,420 --> 00:17:10,724 though. I think terrifier 3, even though I did not enjoy it as 265 00:17:10,732 --> 00:17:14,532 much as the original, and I do feel it's getting a little slapstick still at 266 00:17:14,556 --> 00:17:18,180 this point. That being said, I do think it does Christmas well. 267

00:17:18,220 --> 00:17:21,000 Like, I definitely think it nails the Christmas vibe. 268 00:17:21,980 --> 00:17:25,380 And I. I don't think it'll be on my top 10, 269 00:17:25,420 --> 00:17:28,708 though. I don't think it will get there for me. It's just 270 00:17:28,764 --> 00:17:32,132 too, you know. And again, I respect the film. I think it's great. It's just 271 00:17:32,156 --> 00:17:35,678 getting too fucking silly. Like, when I'm like, there's certain scenes 272 00:17:35,694 --> 00:17:38,926 where the music that's being played is so silly with what's happening. I love it. 273 00:17:38,998 --> 00:17:42,958 It's just. I don't know. The first one is so dark. It's terrifying. 274 00:17:43,054 --> 00:17:46,410 Christmas. That song has been stuck in my head. I love it. 275 00:17:46,710 --> 00:17:50,190 I've been looking for it on Spotify and I can't find it anywhere. I'm just 276 00:17:50,230 --> 00:17:52,430 so glad that it's done well, you know, at the end of the day, 277 00:17:52,470 --> 00:17:56,078 I would never say it's not good. It's absolutely good. It's just. 278 00:17:56,134 --> 00:18:00,308 I find that my dislike of them is increasing with each one. 279 00:18:00,494 --> 00:18:03,864 Like, I even like the anthology that art is in more 280 00:18:03,952 --> 00:18:07,272 than I like Terrifier two and three. Wow. I do 281 00:18:07,296 --> 00:18:10,664 like. Well, this is the subway scene. The subway story I like. 282 00:18:10,752 --> 00:18:14,168 Yeah. Which I gotta say, I do kind of find it funny that you're not 283 00:18:14,224 --> 00:18:17,368 into the slapstickiness of this. I know it is weird. 284 00:18:17,464 --> 00:18:21,128 But then you look at the name of our podcast and you are Nightmare 285 00:18:21,144 --> 00:18:25,192 on Elm street part of the podcast name. I know, it's really weird, 286 00:18:25,256 --> 00:18:28,324 isn't it? Like, to be honest, you would think that. 287 00:18:28,512 --> 00:18:31,676 And I don't know if maybe. Because with the Nightmare on Elm 288 00:18:31,708 --> 00:18:35,372 street movies, I think I saw three first. And I wonder 289 00:18:35,436 --> 00:18:38,572 if my opinion had been different. Have you Seen 290 00:18:38,596 --> 00:18:41,756 one of these sequels. Yeah, right. If I had seen the original 291 00:18:41,868 --> 00:18:45,052 and then, like, done it, like what I did with the Terrifier films. 292 00:18:45,116 --> 00:18:48,524 Right, right. Okay. And again, like, this isn't me on the films. 293 00:18:48,572 --> 00:18:51,800 I think the films are awesome. It's just for me, 294 00:18:52,420 --> 00:18:55,640 I. I have my preference. Right. But again, 295 00:18:55,760 --> 00:18:59,912 I think you're right. That. That nailed the Christmas. Like, nailed it. 296 00:19:00,016 --> 00:19:03,768 And I'm by their. Their practical facts. 297 00:19:03,784 --> 00:19:06,744 Sorry. Go ahead, Scotty. Oh, yeah, absolutely. But I was gonna say. And as you 298 00:19:06,752 --> 00:19:09,752

can tell, we've veered off from he sees you when you're sleeping to talk about 299 00:19:09,776 --> 00:19:12,820 Terrifier 3, which isn't even on our list today, just. No, 300 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,512 I did watch it and you mentioned it, so I thought, well, there's a perfect 301 00:19:17,576 --> 00:19:20,472 bridge to bring it in. Yeah, Well, I was gonna say that just goes to 302 00:19:20,496 --> 00:19:23,940 show, like, yeah, that's how good. This one movie. I was gonna talk about. 303 00:19:25,740 --> 00:19:28,932 Something else. Go watch this other movie. So if some 304 00:19:28,956 --> 00:19:32,436 reason someone needs to, like, I don't know, they're watching all the Christmas horror films. 305 00:19:32,468 --> 00:19:36,420 Where can they find this? He sees you when you're sleeping. This is on 306 00:19:36,540 --> 00:19:39,572 Google play, Amazon video, YouTube, 307 00:19:39,636 --> 00:19:43,236 Fandango at home. Buy it or rent it. I wouldn't 308 00:19:43,268 --> 00:19:47,236 recommend either, but apparently it is streaming 309 00:19:47,268 --> 00:19:50,852 on hoopla. So I believe that is like the. If you have a 310 00:19:50,956 --> 00:19:54,388 library card, you can stream movies from their website. Oh, 311 00:19:54,404 --> 00:19:57,428 there you go. So if you can stream it for free, do it that way. 312 00:19:57,484 --> 00:20:00,996 Don't bother paying money for this. This was not good. Like, 313 00:20:01,148 --> 00:20:05,236 only three people have watched it that I follow. And Doninelli 314 00:20:05,268 --> 00:20:08,308 is the only one that people here would recognize, I think, and that he gave 315 00:20:08,324 --> 00:20:12,356 it four out of five stars, which is why I love Donanelli. He has a. 316 00:20:12,428 --> 00:20:15,892 He has a love for these independent films that. He sees something in him that 317 00:20:15,916 --> 00:20:19,602 I don't, which is awesome. Yeah. And everyone has different. Different strokes that 318 00:20:19,626 --> 00:20:22,994 they like. Exactly. I watched half of 319 00:20:23,002 --> 00:20:25,670 this next one, and I thought it was very Spanish, 320 00:20:26,650 --> 00:20:30,498 so it was very much an international Spanish film. 321 00:20:30,554 --> 00:20:34,162 I'm like, oh, yeah, this is fucking Spanish. So I look 322 00:20:34,186 --> 00:20:37,154 forward to hearing. Was there no subtitles or something? Oh, did you not. Have you 323 00:20:37,162 --> 00:20:40,786 seen this one yet? Okay, we could take it off then. It's Rita. I'm halfway 324 00:20:40,818 --> 00:20:44,562 through on Shudder. And it's just, like, the vibe, you know, the vibe 325 00:20:44,626 --> 00:20:48,520 of Spanish movies where they're, like, dark and everything's fucked. 326 00:20:48,650 --> 00:20:51,996 And it, like, puts, let's say, children or other vulnerable 327 00:20:52,028 --> 00:20:55,356 people in shitty situations. Like, there's no happy 328 00:20:55,388 --> 00:20:59,676 ending. Yeah, that's that's.

That's. That's Spanish movies. It feels like Rita 329 00:20:59,708 --> 00:21:03,276 has that vibe. But I haven't fully watched it yet. I am halfway 330 00:21:03,308 --> 00:21:06,492 through. But if anyone does want to see it, it's the most recent drop on 331 00:21:06,516 --> 00:21:09,644 Shudder. I would say even only being halfway 332 00:21:09,692 --> 00:21:13,292 through, if you like Spanish movies, it's worth it. If you 333 00:21:13,316 --> 00:21:16,870 do not like Spanish movies, I don't recommend it. You got 334 00:21:16,910 --> 00:21:20,070 to be a real international Spanish movie 335 00:21:20,150 --> 00:21:23,270 fan. Connoisseur. Yes. To. To get into it. 336 00:21:23,310 --> 00:21:26,854 It is. It is very artsy. And. And you know, that's the 337 00:21:26,862 --> 00:21:29,942 thing with Shutter. They always pick up the variety. Right. They. You never know what 338 00:21:29,966 --> 00:21:33,542 you're going to see on the shutty. This next one I 339 00:21:33,566 --> 00:21:36,742 thought was absolutely hilarious. I knew you would love 340 00:21:36,766 --> 00:21:39,942 this one. Oh, 341 00:21:40,006 --> 00:21:42,502 man. Do you want me to bring it in or do you want to bring 342 00:21:42,526 --> 00:21:45,658 it in? You go ahead because I think I may have mentioned 343 00:21:45,674 --> 00:21:49,322 it. Did you already? I can't remember, but because I know I did watch 344 00:21:49,346 --> 00:21:52,842 it before our last recording. Okay. Okay. I may have forgotten to add 345 00:21:52,866 --> 00:21:56,430 it, but okay. I won't be long. It's not like it's deep, Rippy. 346 00:21:57,170 --> 00:22:01,018 It's about a kangaroo. It's actually 347 00:22:01,074 --> 00:22:04,730 just him in the kangaroo outfit. I was just good. No, no. Tim is. 348 00:22:04,850 --> 00:22:08,762 Tim is the protagonist fighting Rippy. Oh, yeah, Definitely punch him 349 00:22:08,786 --> 00:22:11,670 in the face. Yeah. Tim just punches wildlife in Australia. 350 00:22:12,490 --> 00:22:16,338 Rippy's gone rogue is the tagline. Young police 351 00:22:16,394 --> 00:22:19,682 officer Maddie is determined to live up to her deceased father's legacy, 352 00:22:19,746 --> 00:22:22,834 who ended up being a drunk. That was so funny. Anyway, 353 00:22:22,962 --> 00:22:26,626 her courage is put to the test when locals are found brutally ripped 354 00:22:26,658 --> 00:22:29,922 to shreds by a zombie kangaroo. As the 355 00:22:29,946 --> 00:22:33,522 undead beast leaves a trail of carnage, Maddie, with the help of her 356 00:22:33,626 --> 00:22:37,106 eccentric uncle, Uncle Schmitty, and resilient Aunt 357 00:22:37,138 --> 00:22:40,658 Donna. Donna must remark on must 358 00:22:40,714 --> 00:22:43,630 embark on a high stake battle to save the town. 359 00:22:44,010 --> 00:22:47,070 This movie is exactly what it sounds like. 360 00:22:47,930 --> 00:22:49,150 Oh, 100. 361 00:22:51,050 --> 00:22:54,274 A creature feature about a really angry 362 00:22:54,322 -->

00:22:57,314 kangaroo that looks like it's undead from the pet cemetery. 363 00:22:57,362 --> 00:23:01,106 It's like they were like, oh, pet cemetery, zombie pets. 364 00:23:01,138 --> 00:23:02,510 You know what we should do? 365 00:23:03,290 --> 00:23:07,084 Kangaroo. Yeah. I wouldn't say 366 00:23:07,092 --> 00:23:10,492 it's overly great, but I wouldn't say it's overly bad either. I had a lot 367 00:23:10,516 --> 00:23:13,356 of fun with it and I thought it was easy to watch. 368 00:23:13,428 --> 00:23:17,244 These cheesy little creature features are a good time. 369 00:23:17,332 --> 00:23:20,972 I. I enjoyed the kangaroo effects for 370 00:23:20,996 --> 00:23:23,852 what it was. I. I accepted it for what it was. I would say this 371 00:23:23,876 --> 00:23:27,660 is middle of the road, this. There's no Crackoon. But this 372 00:23:27,700 --> 00:23:31,676 is also. No, no, the Meg. Right. So know your expectations 373 00:23:31,788 --> 00:23:35,002 going into it. But Tim, you should 374 00:23:35,026 --> 00:23:37,514 watch this. I want to know if this is what your life is like. 375 00:23:37,602 --> 00:23:41,402 I think he did watch it. Did he? Okay. I think him and Luffy both 376 00:23:41,426 --> 00:23:45,082 have seen it. They haven't recorded it on letterbox. Didn't happen on 377 00:23:45,106 --> 00:23:48,586 letterbox. It didn't happen. That's all I know. Oh, yeah. I guess not, 378 00:23:48,658 --> 00:23:52,570 huh? Yeah. But yeah, this one was. The CGI was 379 00:23:52,690 --> 00:23:56,330 really bad for the kangaroo, but I think it kind of added to the 380 00:23:56,370 --> 00:24:00,058 charm of just being entertaining because I was just laughing throughout 381 00:24:00,074 --> 00:24:03,530 the entire thing. It was just so silly and starring or 382 00:24:03,570 --> 00:24:06,922 having Michael Bean in it. So I was like, oh, wow, he's actually gonna. 383 00:24:07,066 --> 00:24:10,682 I guess that makes sense now. His career hasn't really been much of anything lately, 384 00:24:10,746 --> 00:24:14,394 so. But yeah, in the ending when like towards 385 00:24:14,442 --> 00:24:17,770 the end, towards the credits, like, the question that Eric and I 386 00:24:17,810 --> 00:24:21,226 had were like, well, is it infecting anything else? And then the credits 387 00:24:21,258 --> 00:24:24,522 are all the. Ah, that's great. Who matters? Who cares? 388 00:24:24,586 --> 00:24:27,860 83 minutes they were in and out. Yeah, it was fun. It was 389 00:24:27,900 --> 00:24:32,084 great. Got in, got dirty, got in and out. I. I respect the game. 390 00:24:32,252 --> 00:24:34,372 So, yeah, if you want to watch this, I don't know if you want to 391 00:24:34,396 --> 00:24:37,684 watch something really stupid at the end of the year. That's a fun little creature 392 00:24:37,732 --> 00:24:41,540 feature. I would say this is. This is up your tree. If. 393 00:24:41,580 --> 00:24:44,660 If it's not like. If this does not sound like you would enjoy it, 394 00:24:44,700 --> 00:24:47,748 you could skip over it. It's on Apple TV, Google Play, 395 00:24:47,804 --> 00:24:51,332 YouTube, Microsoft Store, and Amazon Video for 396 00:24:51,356 --> 00:24:54,540 the US and again link. Know your rental price for this. Like, 397 00:24:54,580 --> 00:24:58,124 think about it. How much do you want cheesy CGI kangaroos 398 00:24:58,252 --> 00:25:02,844 shit up? Personally, I was here for it, but yeah, 399 00:25:02,892 --> 00:25:06,300 yeah, not everyone would be there for it, so. Yeah, exactly. I had 400 00:25:06,340 --> 00:25:09,804 fun with it. It was exactly what it was showing that it 401 00:25:09,812 --> 00:25:12,492 would be. Right. This is. You tell that we're getting to the end of the 402 00:25:12,516 --> 00:25:14,880 year. We're back to Scrape the Barrel, 403 00:25:16,740 --> 00:25:20,256 which this next Academy Award winning film you need to take discuss. 404 00:25:20,408 --> 00:25:23,648 Oh yeah, this one kind of falls in the line of Rippy. 405 00:25:23,824 --> 00:25:27,360 So this is. This is called Werewolf Santa with 406 00:25:27,400 --> 00:25:31,552 a. It's got a 407 00:25:31,656 --> 00:25:35,152 71 minute run time. This can be found on tubi. 408 00:25:35,216 --> 00:25:38,656 Oh. So yeah, when I. Like I said, we've been watching a lot of Christmas 409 00:25:38,688 --> 00:25:41,820 horror films for free on Tubi. Right. For free on T. 410 00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,680 And there's. We've been watching a lot of Christmas horror films. We Came across this 411 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:48,300 one. We're going, oh my God. Let's watch this. 412 00:25:48,600 --> 00:25:51,780 The tagline is Seasons Eatings. 413 00:25:54,600 --> 00:25:58,368 Lucy has a social media channel where she huns evidence of 414 00:25:58,424 --> 00:26:02,512 actual monsters. But it's not doing great with just a few viewers following her 415 00:26:02,536 --> 00:26:05,920 disappointing posts. Everything changes on Christmas Eve when 416 00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,712 her camera witnesses Santa getting bitten by a werewolf before he 417 00:26:09,736 --> 00:26:12,980 turns the cancer lycanthrope himself. 418 00:26:13,930 --> 00:26:17,810 Jesus Christ. As werewolf Santa starts wreaking 419 00:26:17,890 --> 00:26:20,930 bloody havoc in their seaside town, Lucy and her 420 00:26:20,970 --> 00:26:24,034 bickering family set off on a madcap adventure. 421 00:26:24,082 --> 00:26:27,586 Armed with a rusty skate and a vague understanding 422 00:26:27,618 --> 00:26:30,978 of how to kill werewolves gained from her collection of horror comics. 423 00:26:31,074 --> 00:26:34,310 The me the Beast must die to save Christmas. 424 00:26:35,370 --> 00:26:38,658 This. This is where Rob's gonna. Rob the hump is gonna 425 00:26:38,674 --> 00:26:42,078 give us cause letterbox says 2023. I looked 426 00:26:42,094 --> 00:26:45,630 it up and I think I had a Release like on December 30th 427 00:26:45,710 --> 00:26:46,650

last year. 428 00:26:49,430 --> 00:26:52,686 I'm throwing this in 2024. It just, it's not. I don't 429 00:26:52,718 --> 00:26:56,510 think it's going to get any of my awards but this one is 430 00:26:56,630 --> 00:26:59,790 exactly how you hear it. Werewolf Santa. It is 431 00:26:59,830 --> 00:27:03,390 dumb, but it is fun. It is low budget. It's got a short 432 00:27:03,430 --> 00:27:07,282 runtime so it doesn't overstay its welcome. It's got 433 00:27:07,386 --> 00:27:10,898 pretty good werewolf effect of like Santa. 434 00:27:11,074 --> 00:27:14,690 Werewolf Santa in a Santa outfit. He looks more like 435 00:27:14,730 --> 00:27:18,530 the, I would say like a lower budget version of the Wolfman. 436 00:27:18,610 --> 00:27:22,130 Okay. So it's. But like you don't see much, you don't see any 437 00:27:22,170 --> 00:27:25,778 transformation, you don't see any kills on screen. It all kind of happens off 438 00:27:25,834 --> 00:27:29,170 screen. Okay. Because obviously low budget. But yeah, 439 00:27:29,250 --> 00:27:32,850 this was just done with a. They knew what they were making and they just 440 00:27:32,890 --> 00:27:36,128 had fun with it and I was here for it. I was laughing, 441 00:27:36,224 --> 00:27:40,336 I was just smiling. It was just a fun little lowbudget horror Christmas 442 00:27:40,368 --> 00:27:43,472 film that just made like I was like okay, there can be 443 00:27:43,496 --> 00:27:47,460 some good Christmas horror films out there. Basically like Friday Nightmares. 444 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,776 We're just exactly fan a little low budget podcast. 445 00:27:51,888 --> 00:27:55,552 Just. Just watches shitty movies. Movies about werewolf Santa and 446 00:27:55,576 --> 00:27:58,800 killer kangaroos. That's what we bring here on Friday Nightmares. 447 00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:03,152 Exactly. We bring you the primo content and. Then some like 448 00:28:03,256 --> 00:28:06,752 tiff films that are random to throw in there just so we can look a 449 00:28:06,776 --> 00:28:10,096 little high trash. Oh, sorry, 450 00:28:10,128 --> 00:28:14,080 where's available this Tubi? This is. Yeah, this is available to stream on 451 00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:17,360 Tubi and it looks like Amazon Prime. Okay. And it can be 452 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,864 bought or rented on Google Play, Amazon Video and Apple tv. 453 00:28:20,992 --> 00:28:24,416 And yeah, I'd say give this A watch, if you're into, like, the low budget 454 00:28:24,528 --> 00:28:27,360 like this does a better werewolf than half the, like, 455 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,484 werewolf movies that have came out over the last couple of years. Well, hey, 456 00:28:30,532 --> 00:28:33,284 you know what? They got that going for them then. Good for them. Good for 457 00:28:33,292 --> 00:28:36,900 you, Werewolf Santa. Good for you. Don't. Don't let anyone put 458 00:28:36,940 --> 00:28:40,820 you down for your transitions. You know, sometimes we 459 00:28:40,860 --> 00:28:43,480 bring a lot of trash here on Friday. Nightmares. 460 00:28:43,900 --> 00:28:47,380 And, you know, sometimes we watch a movie 461 00:28:47,460 --> 00:28:51,300 and it's a remake. And I, at least with the 462 00:28:51,340 --> 00:28:55,178 Strangers remake that came out this year, I got what was going on. 463 00:28:55,284 --> 00:28:59,262 Not a great movie, but I got what was going on. I watched Street Trash 464 00:28:59,326 --> 00:29:03,210 2024 and I'm still not sure what the point of the movie was. 465 00:29:03,670 --> 00:29:07,486 And I failed you because I was. Because you need me to watch it to 466 00:29:07,558 --> 00:29:10,910 hopefully explain it to you. I have not got to it yet. I am going 467 00:29:10,950 --> 00:29:14,366 to watch it and I will see if I can help. I did hear this 468 00:29:14,438 --> 00:29:18,222 is also considered a sequel to the original. Not as 469 00:29:18,246 --> 00:29:21,566 much a remake. Okay, so maybe that could be part of the 470 00:29:21,638 --> 00:29:25,004 questioning. Like, maybe just don't remember a lot of what happened the original. 471 00:29:25,052 --> 00:29:29,036 Because, I mean, honestly, this may piss off some listeners. I can't 472 00:29:29,068 --> 00:29:32,348 really stand the original Street. Trash either, can I? 473 00:29:32,484 --> 00:29:35,852 I like the effects, but that's about it. I don't need to be 474 00:29:35,876 --> 00:29:39,180 seeing, like, rapey crap with bums and things 475 00:29:39,220 --> 00:29:41,868 like that that are going on in this movie. And the way it was, 476 00:29:41,924 --> 00:29:45,500 the way it was handled, I'm like, not for me. So they've cut that out. 477 00:29:45,540 --> 00:29:48,972 I'll give them credit. They've. They've definitely 2024 eyes 478 00:29:49,036 --> 00:29:52,630 it. The tag is Melt the Rich. A group 479 00:29:52,670 --> 00:29:56,054 of homeless misfits must fight for survival when they discover 480 00:29:56,102 --> 00:29:59,974 a plot to exterminate every homeless person in the city. A remake of 481 00:29:59,982 --> 00:30:03,558 the 1987 cult classic is what it says here on Letterbox. 482 00:30:03,734 --> 00:30:06,518 I don't know. I think you're probably right. I have no fucking idea. So here's 483 00:30:06,534 --> 00:30:09,974 the good news. It wasn't just me who didn't get it. Tim Davis 484 00:30:10,022 --> 00:30:13,350 from Horror for Dummies or Dummies of Horror. Oh, wait, 485 00:30:13,430 --> 00:30:16,130 Horror for Dummies. Yeah, Horror for Dummies. Right? 486 00:30:17,150 --> 00:30:20,850 Is it Dummy to Horror, right? Yeah, that's his old name here. Yeah, 487 00:30:21,030 --> 00:30:24,426 he gave it two stars. This was dumb. I'm sorry. It didn't 488 00:30:24,458 --> 00:30:27,978 work for me at all. It's just dumb humor that I don't connect with. 489 00:30:28,034 --> 00:30:31,322 Some practical effects are cool and the score was neat, but the consistent 490 00:30:31,386 --> 00:30:34,682 jokes made it

look like they were trying way too hard. Just like me trying 491 00:30:34,706 --> 00:30:38,394 to hit on Tim. So yeah, this. That sums 492 00:30:38,442 --> 00:30:40,990 it up. And then Matt Wood, 493 00:30:43,730 --> 00:30:46,938 I listened to his DJ set the other day. It was really good. Oh, 494 00:30:46,954 --> 00:30:50,392 nice. Yeah, I'm a friend. That's why I'm a friend too. I just sent 495 00:30:50,416 --> 00:30:53,208 him a friend request on the PlayStation. Oh, wow. 496 00:30:53,384 --> 00:30:57,848 Yeah. Yeah. Even across oceans, bringing people together. 497 00:30:57,984 --> 00:31:00,460 Him and I are docking across the ocean. 498 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,240 Yeah. This didn't hit with me, even though I was looking forward to it. 499 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:08,392 The multi color gore and special effects are cool. I like the score. 500 00:31:08,536 --> 00:31:11,944 However, aside, the jokes didn't land for me. The chat in between was all a 501 00:31:11,952 --> 00:31:15,112 bit dull. And there's some types I couldn't understand what they were saying due to 502 00:31:15,136 --> 00:31:19,012 the South African dialect. I won't give 503 00:31:19,036 --> 00:31:22,724 his like rating because he always does really colorful, funny ones that yeah 504 00:31:22,772 --> 00:31:26,100 spoil. But I'm. I'm with these two. They gave it 505 00:31:26,140 --> 00:31:29,652 two stars, two and a half. I think two stars is fair. I think 506 00:31:29,676 --> 00:31:33,364 the special effects in this movie are great. The practical effects are 507 00:31:33,452 --> 00:31:36,692 awesome. I will give that. There were some characters 508 00:31:36,756 --> 00:31:40,372 that were. Did have a couple of funny jokes, but overall I found 509 00:31:40,396 --> 00:31:44,262 the movie boring. I didn't really understand the point of 510 00:31:44,286 --> 00:31:46,902 it. I. I felt like it was. 511 00:31:47,006 --> 00:31:50,358 The acting was very wooden and not really 512 00:31:50,414 --> 00:31:54,502 enjoyable. And I don't really get why this was remade sequel, 513 00:31:54,566 --> 00:31:58,102 whatever it is, which is going to be similar to something we 514 00:31:58,126 --> 00:32:01,382 talk after this. I feel like this was the year of 515 00:32:01,406 --> 00:32:05,110 unnecessary sequels and remakes. Like, you know 516 00:32:05,150 --> 00:32:08,666 what I mean? And I'm kind of there, I'll say. Because yeah, there's quite 517 00:32:08,698 --> 00:32:11,450 a few this year. Right. And it's. And again, like, hey man, 518 00:32:11,490 --> 00:32:14,666 enjoy what you enjoy. Like, you know, but I just really 519 00:32:14,738 --> 00:32:18,234 don't get the purpose of remaking this. And let's just get out like 520 00:32:18,322 --> 00:32:22,030 the really gross sexual assault shit from the first one. But Anyway, 521 00:32:22,370 --> 00:32:26,250 this is 85 minutes long. It's available on all the renting 522 00:32:26,330 --> 00:32:29,930 services, Apple TV,

Google Play, YouTube, Amazon. I would say 523 00:32:29,970 --> 00:32:33,722 watch this. If for some reason you really like the first one and you 524 00:32:33,746 --> 00:32:37,344 want to see the second one or the, or the remake or the sequel, 525 00:32:37,392 --> 00:32:40,944 whatever it is, that would be about it. I would say 526 00:32:40,952 --> 00:32:43,872 if you're like me and you were lukewarm on the first one or didn't like 527 00:32:43,896 --> 00:32:47,072 it, I don't know if you really. This is gonna. I was hoping this was 528 00:32:47,096 --> 00:32:50,720 gonna make me like it and. Right. And it did not. It did not 529 00:32:50,760 --> 00:32:54,000 do that. No, that's. That's the kind of the consensus I've been getting 530 00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:57,392 from it too. Yeah, yeah. But yeah, I'll bring in the next one because I 531 00:32:57,416 --> 00:33:00,300 watched this last night and I know you've seen it. Yes, I have. 532 00:33:00,760 --> 00:33:03,744 No, I think this is what you were hinting at with unnecessary. 533 00:33:03,872 --> 00:33:07,308 Yeah, we'll get into that. Yeah. But this one 534 00:33:07,364 --> 00:33:11,180 is smile two. 127 minute run 535 00:33:11,220 --> 00:33:14,924 time. And it's tagline is it's the last thing you'll 536 00:33:14,972 --> 00:33:17,644 see. About to embark on a new world tour, 537 00:33:17,732 --> 00:33:20,940 global pop sensation Sky Riley begins experiencing 538 00:33:21,020 --> 00:33:24,412 increasingly terrifying and inexplicable events. 539 00:33:24,476 --> 00:33:27,740 Overwhelmed by the escalating horrors and the pressures of fame, 540 00:33:27,820 --> 00:33:31,700 sky is forced to face her dark past. Regained control over life 541 00:33:31,740 --> 00:33:35,620 before it spirals out of control. That is a weird synopsis to not 542 00:33:35,660 --> 00:33:39,204 even like if someone did not know this was Smile 2, 543 00:33:39,292 --> 00:33:43,156 that synopsis doesn't tell you anything about it being a sequel. Right? That's weird. 544 00:33:43,268 --> 00:33:46,612 But yeah, I absolutely loved the 545 00:33:46,636 --> 00:33:49,040 first movie. It was in my top 10 that year. 546 00:33:49,420 --> 00:33:52,692 I think I went into it expecting it to be just kind 547 00:33:52,716 --> 00:33:56,388 of mediocre and was kind of blown away by the 548 00:33:56,524 --> 00:33:59,702 way they covered the trauma and the curse and 549 00:33:59,726 --> 00:34:03,174 all this stuff that was involved in this on the lore building up to this 550 00:34:03,342 --> 00:34:06,470 Smile Demon. And so I was, I was looking forward to 551 00:34:06,510 --> 00:34:09,606 seeing this one because I'm like, oh, famous pop star. 552 00:34:09,678 --> 00:34:12,934 Which I called exactly how it was gonna end. I knew 553 00:34:12,982 --> 00:34:16,182 it was gonna end the way it did, but I was like, 554 00:34:16,206 --> 00:34:19,974 oh, pop star. Getting the Smile curse put upon her. 555 00:34:20,062 --> 00:34:23,174 Okay, this could be really interesting. And for the most part, yeah, 556 00:34:23,222 --> 00:34:26,426 it was a very interesting movie. Very entertaining, 557 00:34:26,458 --> 00:34:29,786 some really good gore and the moments that it showed gore. 558 00:34:29,978 --> 00:34:33,194 The two hour and nine minute run time, 559 00:34:33,282 --> 00:34:36,890 that was my bit much. Yeah. And the 560 00:34:36,930 --> 00:34:40,842 biggest gripe I really had about this because I thought everybody's acting was 561 00:34:40,866 --> 00:34:44,842 great, thought the story was intriguing. My biggest gripe though is 562 00:34:44,946 --> 00:34:48,186 this did not build on the lore of the Smile Demon 563 00:34:48,218 --> 00:34:51,562 at all. Like he. I figured, you know, it's a sequel, figured it would 564 00:34:51,586 --> 00:34:55,494 have been more, a little bit more lore added, but they didn't 565 00:34:55,542 --> 00:34:59,270 add anything new to it. It was more of 566 00:34:59,390 --> 00:35:03,030 the same, but with a pop star instead of therapist. 567 00:35:03,110 --> 00:35:06,934 Yeah, but like I think what's her name? 568 00:35:07,102 --> 00:35:10,518 Naomi Scott. Yes, Naomi Scott. I thought she did an amazing job 569 00:35:10,574 --> 00:35:14,950 as like a Lady Gaga like style pop star. Totally thought 570 00:35:14,990 --> 00:35:18,070 she was amazing in it. And yeah, like I still really enjoyed it, 571 00:35:18,110 --> 00:35:22,022 but it's. I don't think where Smile one was like instantly 572 00:35:22,086 --> 00:35:25,376 top ten. One of my favorite movies of that year. This will probably 573 00:35:25,408 --> 00:35:28,704 not make my top 10. It missed the mark by just being a 574 00:35:28,712 --> 00:35:32,560 little too long and not really adding anything new to the 575 00:35:32,600 --> 00:35:36,272 lore of the Smile Demon and just kind of giving me more of the same. 576 00:35:36,376 --> 00:35:40,544 And then the kind of reveal when she's on 577 00:35:40,632 --> 00:35:44,300 stage at the end pissed me off. Yeah. Yeah, I agree. 578 00:35:44,600 --> 00:35:47,664 I. I think you echoed exactly what I thought. 1. I thought the filming of 579 00:35:47,672 --> 00:35:50,500 this was incredible. I thought Naomi Scott was incredible. 580 00:35:51,590 --> 00:35:55,454 But I felt like the first one. The beginning of this movie 581 00:35:55,502 --> 00:35:58,782 tries to loosely tie in the end of the first. Yes. In a 582 00:35:58,806 --> 00:36:02,398 very silly way, to be quite honest. 583 00:36:02,574 --> 00:36:05,966 And I'm gonna give somewhat of a spoiler here. So people 584 00:36:06,038 --> 00:36:09,614 fast forward if you need to for the next minute. So my. My thing is 585 00:36:09,702 --> 00:36:12,782 she, she, you know, this is spoiler. Again, fast forward a 586 00:36:12,806 --> 00:36:16,846 minute if you have not seen this movie. So she has a traumatic event 587 00:36:16,918 --> 00:36:20,450 happened to her earlier

in her life. How did the demon not find 588 00:36:20,490 --> 00:36:24,386 her earlier? The reason why she's has some of the issues she has 589 00:36:24,458 --> 00:36:28,114 is because of the things she witnessed which would have been traumatic. So why didn't 590 00:36:28,162 --> 00:36:31,762 it find her then? See what I'm saying? Well, that's not kind of how the 591 00:36:31,786 --> 00:36:35,586 demon works though. It's whoever witnesses 592 00:36:35,618 --> 00:36:38,930 them getting killed. So it's not anybody that witnesses any kind of trauma. 593 00:36:39,010 --> 00:36:42,610 It's just the. Okay, that specific trauma. It's kind of like it 594 00:36:42,650 --> 00:36:46,306 follows. Yes, it follows in Ringu where it's like the person 595 00:36:46,378 --> 00:36:50,034 that is infected with the Smile Demon parasite or whatever you want to call it, 596 00:36:50,202 --> 00:36:53,490 when they kill themselves, they got to kill them. They're being forced to kill themselves 597 00:36:53,570 --> 00:36:56,818 in front of somebody. Got it. And that person that 598 00:36:56,874 --> 00:37:00,610 sees that happening is now cursed. And it's 599 00:37:01,110 --> 00:37:04,750 a big situation. Okay. Yes. Spoiler part ended. So I. 600 00:37:05,610 --> 00:37:08,930 Yeah, like, I think my thoughts are right with you, Scotty. I think the two 601 00:37:08,970 --> 00:37:12,242 hour runtime was a little much. I don't know why they thought that was 602 00:37:12,266 --> 00:37:15,762 needed. It seems to be the new way with horror films. There's so 603 00:37:15,786 --> 00:37:19,154 many two hours, something runtime. Yeah. And like there's some movies where you 604 00:37:19,162 --> 00:37:21,602 can get away with that. And then there's other ones where I'm like, this is 605 00:37:21,626 --> 00:37:25,230 an hour and a half film. This is not a. A two hour film. 606 00:37:26,330 --> 00:37:29,906 Like Matt. Matt said it decently here. Yeah, this was decent, 607 00:37:29,938 --> 00:37:32,642 but not as good as the first one. I thought it did its own thing 608 00:37:32,666 --> 00:37:36,002 in new direction, which was interesting. I just don't think it had 609 00:37:36,026 --> 00:37:39,438 the same impact as the first. And I didn't find it scary either. 610 00:37:39,634 --> 00:37:43,030 Yeah, well, put together and well act. And I agree. And I, 611 00:37:43,070 --> 00:37:45,910 and I think the thing is they relied a lot on jump scares here. 612 00:37:46,030 --> 00:37:49,574 Like a lot. That's actually funny because Connor was, 613 00:37:49,662 --> 00:37:52,838 Connor wasn't watching it but he was in the kitchen making something to eat 614 00:37:52,854 --> 00:37:56,582 and he kept hearing the jump scare noise 615 00:37:56,646 --> 00:38:00,582 happening. He's going, good God. He's like, I've been in here for three minutes, 616 00:38:00,646 --> 00:38:03,718 three minutes. I've heard the jump scare noise six different times 617 00:38:03,774 --> 00:38:07,630 already. I'm like, yeah, like that's relying way 618 00:38:07,670 --> 00:38:10,382 too much on that. But hey, you know what? Good acting, 619 00:38:10,446 --> 00:38:14,174 interesting story. Not the worst film I've seen this year. Not the 620 00:38:14,182 --> 00:38:17,790 worst sequel I've seen this year. So yeah, sorry, I still 621 00:38:17,830 --> 00:38:21,534 Give this an 8 out of 10. It's still good but it's just nowhere near 622 00:38:21,622 --> 00:38:24,734 the level of the first one for me which was after a 623 00:38:24,742 --> 00:38:27,310 couple re watches has become a 10 out of 10 for me. I loved it. 624 00:38:27,350 --> 00:38:31,086 Yeah, agreed. I'm probably more at a seven and that's fine. Like it's 625 00:38:31,118 --> 00:38:34,352 still decent if people want to watch it. It is available on Apple TV, 626 00:38:34,416 --> 00:38:37,840 Google Play, Amazon Video, YouTube and again 627 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,576 it's. If you like the first one and you would like that kind of theme, 628 00:38:40,608 --> 00:38:43,980 a movie, then I think you'll enjoy this. It's worth whatever rental you pay. 629 00:38:44,520 --> 00:38:48,384 But I haven't seen anyone yet go way better than the first one. 630 00:38:48,472 --> 00:38:52,480 So know that going into it and set your expectations 631 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:56,496 accordingly. Now, have you seen this gem? 632 00:38:56,688 --> 00:39:00,032 New and it sounds like. I'm glad I missed it because 633 00:39:00,056 --> 00:39:03,412 I think Tim Davis watched it and talked about it and, 634 00:39:03,576 --> 00:39:07,340 and you know, he's our shark expert for our little group. 635 00:39:07,460 --> 00:39:10,620 He is so Shark Warning 2024 After 20 years, 636 00:39:10,660 --> 00:39:13,772 a man returns to the town where his brother was killed by a shark. 637 00:39:13,916 --> 00:39:17,052 When it resurfaces and kills again, the man goes on a mission to hunt down 638 00:39:17,076 --> 00:39:20,572 the predator, making unlikely alliances along the way in order to stop it once 639 00:39:20,596 --> 00:39:23,660 and for all. The acting in is in. This is painful. 640 00:39:23,740 --> 00:39:27,132 It's very painful. And sitting at a 94 641 00:39:27,156 --> 00:39:30,620 minute runtime. I will say that it focuses on the shark story. Like it, 642 00:39:30,660 --> 00:39:34,736 it, it's based around shark. So Tim said the Asylums 643 00:39:34,768 --> 00:39:38,608 version of Jaws and I think that that's pretty much funny. I think that's very 644 00:39:38,664 --> 00:39:42,480 complimentary to compare it to Jaws more than this film 645 00:39:42,520 --> 00:39:46,496 deserves. It's probably one of the worst shark movies 646 00:39:46,528 --> 00:39:50,112 that came out this year. I, I think I even enjoy the 647 00:39:50,136 --> 00:39:53,872 Chicks on the Boat a little bit more because at least like it kind of 648 00:39:53,896 --> 00:39:57,432 like had some anticipation to it and a

little bit of 649 00:39:57,456 --> 00:40:01,160 dread. This didn't have anything right. But I watch 650 00:40:01,200 --> 00:40:04,264 these movies because I need a worse of for the other podcasts that I 651 00:40:04,272 --> 00:40:08,072 do. And I look forward to torturing the ladies with something. And this may 652 00:40:08,096 --> 00:40:11,656 be a contender. So we'll see. Because it's pretty. 653 00:40:11,688 --> 00:40:14,792 Cheese. Cheese. And I love it when you. I love it when 654 00:40:14,816 --> 00:40:18,312 you bring your worst of to the table for them ladies because you put them 655 00:40:18,336 --> 00:40:21,880 through hell. I do. Well, they'll be like, oh, worst one 656 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:25,616 is like some theater release. I'm like, you haven't seen worse one. 657 00:40:25,688 --> 00:40:29,140 Yes. Though I may choose the Mousetrap 658 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:33,104 because I do think it's hilarious. So, yeah. 659 00:40:33,152 --> 00:40:36,384 Shark warning. I don't know. My warning is you could skip it unless 660 00:40:36,432 --> 00:40:40,320 you're really, really into shark films. It is available on Apple tv, 661 00:40:40,400 --> 00:40:43,680 Google Play, Microsoft Store. I don't know, man. If you're really 662 00:40:43,720 --> 00:40:47,584 into this shit, rent it. If not, I would say skip over that bad boy. 663 00:40:47,712 --> 00:40:50,592 Now. Have you seen this other one? This is one another one you told me 664 00:40:50,616 --> 00:40:53,662 I have to watch. Have not got to it. Okay. So this was recommended 665 00:40:53,726 --> 00:40:57,598 to me from Matt woods because he knows of my. My love 666 00:40:57,654 --> 00:41:01,230 for a certain part that men have attached to them. It's their 667 00:41:01,270 --> 00:41:04,782 brains. I. I really love a good personality in a 668 00:41:04,806 --> 00:41:08,142 man. Scott knows that I'm always talking about how personalities are 669 00:41:08,166 --> 00:41:11,678 the most important thing to me. Oh, 100 just like to ride those 670 00:41:11,734 --> 00:41:15,646 personalities, you know? This movie 671 00:41:15,678 --> 00:41:18,370 is called Members Club and it's very British. 672 00:41:19,330 --> 00:41:23,146 Old members welcome, wet dreams and middle age. 673 00:41:23,298 --> 00:41:26,682 Middle aged male strip group takes one last gig at 674 00:41:26,706 --> 00:41:30,266 a rural working men's club only to discover 675 00:41:30,458 --> 00:41:33,802 that they are to become sacrificial in a 676 00:41:33,826 --> 00:41:37,306 plot to raise somebody. This movie 677 00:41:37,338 --> 00:41:41,418 is really fucking funny. I. I had a really good 678 00:41:41,474 --> 00:41:44,842 time with this film. It's. It's nothing 679 00:41:44,906 --> 00:41:49,018 over the top or special. It has the occasional funny parts 680 00:41:49,034 --> 00:41:52,488 in it, but it's just. It's these old 681 00:41:52,544 --> 00:41:55,832 guys. It's like. It's like the full Monty horror film. That's the best way to 682 00:41:55,856 --> 00:41:59,160 describe it. And it doesn't take itself seriously. 683 00:41:59,320 --> 00:42:03,480 It's meant to be silly. The ending 684 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:07,304 is Chef's kiss. There's a scene at the end that is just so funny. 685 00:42:07,352 --> 00:42:10,392 I can't wait for you to watch it, Scott, because you're gonna die. 686 00:42:10,456 --> 00:42:14,328 Like there's a scene that I know when you get to it that you're gonna 687 00:42:14,344 --> 00:42:17,748 be playing, like of course. Like just. It's funny. It's. It's just 688 00:42:17,824 --> 00:42:21,164 silly, silly, silly. I can't wait yeah, 689 00:42:21,212 --> 00:42:24,732 it's. It's not really streaming anywhere. Hopefully it drops before the 690 00:42:24,756 --> 00:42:26,800 end of the year. We did watch a screener. 691 00:42:27,620 --> 00:42:30,796 It. It has a bunch of like British soap stars 692 00:42:30,828 --> 00:42:34,460 in it and it's great. And it's 90 minutes. Thank you for 693 00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:37,756 being 90 minutes as a horror film and not dragging 694 00:42:37,788 --> 00:42:41,484 this out for right hours on end. It has a 695 00:42:41,492 --> 00:42:45,014 3.2 star rating and I 10 out 696 00:42:45,022 --> 00:42:48,534 of 10 recommend. You do see a lot of penis 697 00:42:48,582 --> 00:42:51,606 in this film, which. Oh, they hang dong. Nice. Oh, yeah, 698 00:42:51,638 --> 00:42:54,998 there's a lot of dongs, which, you know, I was here for it. 699 00:42:55,134 --> 00:42:58,230 That's why Matt recommended it. He's like, Heather, there's a lot of what you 700 00:42:58,270 --> 00:43:02,070 like in this film. And Matt knows me. Matt knows. 701 00:43:02,230 --> 00:43:05,766 And I appreciate that. Matt. It is. It is what I like. It's true. 702 00:43:05,798 --> 00:43:08,406 I think all our listeners know at this point. I know, 703 00:43:08,478 --> 00:43:11,936 right? You know, if you don't, you haven't 704 00:43:11,968 --> 00:43:15,296 been listening, right? We like what we like, man. And I. 705 00:43:15,448 --> 00:43:18,960 There's certain things, let's just say that I enjoy the finer things in life and 706 00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:21,180 that's one of the finer things. So. 707 00:43:22,920 --> 00:43:26,496 So yeah, I would say it's worth it if, if you get access 708 00:43:26,568 --> 00:43:29,792 to this and you want something short, swim, simple. But you 709 00:43:29,816 --> 00:43:32,608 know, be aware if you're watching this with kids, I'm thinking about you, Tim. 710 00:43:32,664 --> 00:43:35,472 Like, there is dong in it. There's a lot of dong in it. So I 711 00:43:35,496 --> 00:43:39,278 don't know. And maybe this is something to watch around the kids, but Jaleesa 712 00:43:39,294 --> 00:43:42,734 might be interested. You know, she might want to see some dong. 713 00:43:42,782 --> 00:43:46,158 I don't know. I'm sure she's also a connoisseur as well. So. 714 00:43:46,294 -->

00:43:49,934 Yeah, you would think. You would think, right? And now let's 715 00:43:49,982 --> 00:43:52,910 bring in the big. The big bang. 716 00:43:53,070 --> 00:43:57,118 Yes. So we were lucky enough to 717 00:43:57,254 --> 00:44:00,862 have access to this documentary that I 718 00:44:00,886 --> 00:44:04,510 don't believe is officially out yet. I think think 719 00:44:04,630 --> 00:44:08,366 it's out to the people who supported 720 00:44:08,398 --> 00:44:12,494 it through Kickstarter, Indiegogo or wherever it was. But this is 721 00:44:12,662 --> 00:44:14,254 In Search of Darkness, 722 00:44:14,382 --> 00:44:17,450 1990-1994. 723 00:44:18,070 --> 00:44:21,166 It's 383 minute runtime. 724 00:44:21,278 --> 00:44:24,798 So it's a good, I think six hours. If I was. 725 00:44:24,854 --> 00:44:28,574 Yeah, about six hours. Six hours. And it's tagline, 726 00:44:28,622 --> 00:44:31,506 a journey into iconic 90s horror film icons. 727 00:44:31,538 --> 00:44:35,490 Genre experts share observations, experiences and analysis to help 728 00:44:35,610 --> 00:44:39,346 reframe, deconstruct and recontextualize the lost decade 729 00:44:39,378 --> 00:44:43,378 of horror, the 1990s. So, yep, this just covers 730 00:44:43,474 --> 00:44:47,234 just like all the other In Search of Darkness. These. This covers 731 00:44:47,282 --> 00:44:50,610 1990 to 1994 and 732 00:44:50,730 --> 00:44:55,058 covers a lot of well known and very 733 00:44:55,114 --> 00:44:59,188 well hidden gems and once again made me wax 734 00:44:59,284 --> 00:45:02,500 nostalgic on a lot of these movies and made me 735 00:45:02,540 --> 00:45:05,924 go, shit, I need to start writing down a list of movies I need to 736 00:45:05,932 --> 00:45:09,156 watch from this decade that I have not seen before. You guys have just brought 737 00:45:09,188 --> 00:45:12,516 up because. Holy shit. Yeah. Like this brought 738 00:45:12,548 --> 00:45:16,052 back a lot of just nostalgic feelings that I just not have not had in 739 00:45:16,076 --> 00:45:19,332 a while because of movies I just forgot about. Right. There was a lot on 740 00:45:19,356 --> 00:45:22,692 here that I had never even really heard of. A lot 741 00:45:22,716 --> 00:45:26,292 of straight to video that I was not familiar with, which is weird for a 742 00:45:26,316 --> 00:45:28,580 premium podcaster such as myself and you, 743 00:45:28,620 --> 00:45:31,952 Scotty. Um, but this is a great doc. 744 00:45:32,016 --> 00:45:35,936 It's. I watched it over a couple of nights and I love. 745 00:45:36,088 --> 00:45:39,856 I just think the In Search of Darkness. I've also watched In Search 746 00:45:39,888 --> 00:45:43,472 of the Future. Tomorrow, Tomorrow, Tomorrow as well. And I just think 747 00:45:43,496 --> 00:45:46,672 these filmmakers really hit it out of the park when it comes 748 00:45:46,696 --> 00:45:50,800 to documentaries. Yeah, I, I also watched the Chucky doc 749 00:45:50,880 --> 00:45:54,736 as well. I still need to see that. It's. It's very good as well. 750 00:45:54,808 --> 00:45:58,422 I really enjoyed that too. I just, just. I just 751 00:45:58,446 --> 00:46:02,630 think these documentaries are such a nice way to explore, 752 00:46:02,790 --> 00:46:05,814 you know, in a Child's play. One things you didn't know about Child's Play franchise. 753 00:46:05,862 --> 00:46:09,810 But In Search of Darkness to really pull out movies that perhaps you 754 00:46:10,510 --> 00:46:14,038 aren't aware of or don't realize the impact that they had. They brought 755 00:46:14,054 --> 00:46:17,974 up two Nightmare on Elm street movies in this. They brought up the 756 00:46:18,062 --> 00:46:22,038 Freddy's Dead and the New Nightmare. And I really do think the New Nightmare doesn't 757 00:46:22,054 --> 00:46:25,286 get as much love as it should. I think the New Nightmare is actually quite 758 00:46:25,318 --> 00:46:28,534 clever. It's a really, really good film. And it was just. I mean, 759 00:46:28,542 --> 00:46:31,734 it's. It did scream before Scream, right? Yeah, and it 760 00:46:31,742 --> 00:46:35,110 did. It did. So, yeah, I, I recommend this 761 00:46:35,150 --> 00:46:38,486 when it drops. If you liked the other ones, there's no reason why you won't 762 00:46:38,518 --> 00:46:41,830 like this. And it's great. You can watch it over a 763 00:46:41,870 --> 00:46:44,790 series of nights or days. And it's a great way to kind of end off 764 00:46:44,830 --> 00:46:48,886 the year. It's a nice. Oh, a nice 100 chef's kiss to the year. 765 00:46:49,038 --> 00:46:53,046 Yeah. Because this even covered a lot of the Stephen King TV movie 766 00:46:53,078 --> 00:46:56,704 adaptations, which that has kickstarted a new marathon. Erica and 767 00:46:56,712 --> 00:47:00,096 I are going to be starting in that Stephen King movie adaptation or 768 00:47:00,168 --> 00:47:03,312 Stephen King adaptations, whether it be movies or TV 769 00:47:03,376 --> 00:47:06,688 movies. We're gonna watch all the ones that we have not seen in a very 770 00:47:06,744 --> 00:47:10,480 long time and kind of starting from the beginning and working our way up and 771 00:47:10,600 --> 00:47:14,192 it's gonna be a long marathon because there's a lot of Stephen King films. 772 00:47:14,256 --> 00:47:18,240 But that thanks to In Search of Darkness. That's why we got 773 00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:20,992 into it and I think we might eventually do a Full moon one as well 774 00:47:21,016 --> 00:47:24,292 because they covered a lot of of Full moon movies as well in that In 775 00:47:24,316 --> 00:47:27,492 Search of Darkness. And that's where I learned a lot about Erica, 776 00:47:27,556 --> 00:47:31,460 who apparently was a Full moon girl growing up. 777 00:47:31,500 --> 00:47:34,884 Because she's like, she's like, oh yeah, this movie is amazing. She's like. 778 00:47:34,892 --> 00:47:38,004 And I was like, I've never even heard of this one. And she was talking 779 00:47:38,052

--> 00:47:41,604 all this love about this. I'm going, okay, this, this is a 780 00:47:41,692 --> 00:47:45,060 whole new light upon you that I did not see before. Like, I thought 781 00:47:45,100 --> 00:47:48,228 I was a premium podcaster. Erica, know your role. 782 00:47:48,284 --> 00:47:51,762 Go back and make brownies. Hell no. I ain't saying that. 783 00:47:51,786 --> 00:47:55,234 She. She'd kick my ass. Yeah, she probably. Yes, you should be. So I 784 00:47:55,242 --> 00:47:58,130 might like it though. That's part of the role play, right, so. 785 00:47:58,170 --> 00:48:01,522 Exactly right. Well, I think again, thank you 786 00:48:01,546 --> 00:48:05,346 for drop. Hopefully this drops this year. Thank you everyone. That crowd funded 787 00:48:05,378 --> 00:48:08,930 it and supported it. I look forward to 95 788 00:48:09,050 --> 00:48:12,162 to 2000 if that's what they do. I think it's. 789 00:48:12,226 --> 00:48:14,930 I don't know, they just nailed these docs and I look forward to them doing 790 00:48:14,970 --> 00:48:18,428 more of it. We already mentioned the two other films that we're 791 00:48:18,444 --> 00:48:21,052 looking at watching towards the end of the year and I don't know, maybe some 792 00:48:21,076 --> 00:48:24,252 other like trash films that we watch, but I don't think there's going to be 793 00:48:24,276 --> 00:48:27,244 anything else that's really going to jump out to our fancy by the end of 794 00:48:27,252 --> 00:48:30,332 the year. Yeah, I don't think so either. And yeah, because like I say, 795 00:48:30,356 --> 00:48:33,132 I'm going to be kind of just playing catch up on the few that I 796 00:48:33,156 --> 00:48:37,132 missed that are kind of more highly regarded just to kind of 797 00:48:37,236 --> 00:48:40,924 fill out my list and help me get kind of a better idea 798 00:48:40,972 --> 00:48:44,638 of what my top 10 and awards will be. Yeah, yeah, 799 00:48:44,814 --> 00:48:48,494 we shall see. We'll see about that. But yeah, so, so we'll do other watches. 800 00:48:48,542 --> 00:48:52,050 So I put other watches because this kind of falls into older or newer. 801 00:48:52,630 --> 00:48:56,462 I was watching on Netflix, Terror Tuesday Extreme. I think it's the same 802 00:48:56,566 --> 00:49:00,734 people that made the doc, the Thai doc Extreme. So it's 803 00:49:00,782 --> 00:49:04,046 basically 45 minute episodes of Thai 804 00:49:04,158 --> 00:49:07,502 short horror films. And they're quite good. All of 805 00:49:07,526 --> 00:49:10,480 them have been fucking excellent. That I have watched. 806 00:49:10,630 --> 00:49:14,348 I 10 out of 10 recommend it. So they have come out 807 00:49:14,404 --> 00:49:17,292 I think this year, but they're not really a movie. It's more of like a 808 00:49:17,316 --> 00:49:21,580 TV series that's on the Netflix. So you like time movies. 809 00:49:21,660 --> 00:49:24,880 You, you like short little episodes of 45 minutes. 810 00:49:25,300 --> 00:49:29,132 Then this is for you. You can watch it either subtitled or dubbed. 811 00:49:29,196 --> 00:49:33,324 And it is Terror Tuesday Extreme and it is available on Netflix. 812 00:49:33,452 --> 00:49:36,848 Nice. Yeah. This is one that I remember you telling me about, so try watching 813 00:49:36,864 --> 00:49:40,320 it at some point. Yeah. But I got some gems for 814 00:49:40,360 --> 00:49:44,384 you. Our Christmas movie marathon. I'm excited for this. 815 00:49:44,552 --> 00:49:48,448 So the first one I'm gonna talk about is probably one of our most 816 00:49:48,504 --> 00:49:52,912 recent ones we've watched and that is Killer Raccoons 2. 817 00:49:53,016 --> 00:49:56,144 Dark Christmas in the Dark. Dark Christmas in the 818 00:49:56,152 --> 00:49:59,632 Dark is my favorite part of that. It got released in 819 00:49:59,656 --> 00:50:03,082 2019 and has 96 minute runtime. Only one of 820 00:50:03,106 --> 00:50:06,634 my one other person has seen this on my friends list on letterboxd 821 00:50:06,682 --> 00:50:09,754 and that is our good buddy Jason Gray who gave it a four out of 822 00:50:09,762 --> 00:50:13,402 five. Very nice. But I'm gonna, I, I do have 823 00:50:13,426 --> 00:50:16,746 to ask Jason, is there a Killer Raccoons one 824 00:50:16,818 --> 00:50:20,122 or is this one of those goofy things where they made a killer raccoons 825 00:50:20,186 --> 00:50:23,978 2 but there was no actual sequel because I looked up killer raccoons 826 00:50:24,074 --> 00:50:27,258 and this is the only one that pops up on letterbox. So I just not, 827 00:50:27,314 --> 00:50:30,150 I'm just curious, but the synopsis for this one. 828 00:50:30,190 --> 00:50:33,730 Just when you thought it was safe to say Merry Christmas again. 829 00:50:34,990 --> 00:50:39,046 On a snowy Christmas Eve, former mild mannered college student Casey 830 00:50:39,078 --> 00:50:42,262 Smallwood is released from prison after serving 10 years for 831 00:50:42,286 --> 00:50:45,366 underage drinking. Eager to get out of town, 832 00:50:45,438 --> 00:50:48,902 he hops on the express train to Washington D.C. but after the holiday 833 00:50:48,966 --> 00:50:52,502 express takes off into the winter wilderness, it's hijacked by 834 00:50:52,526 --> 00:50:56,214 an angry gang of domestic terrorists and highly intelligent 835 00:50:56,342 --> 00:50:59,286 government trained raccoons. Not one to be. 836 00:50:59,438 --> 00:51:02,614 Not one to back down from raccoon fight. Casey joins forces 837 00:51:02,662 --> 00:51:06,022 with a porter on the train to fight the terrorists. Help bring down 838 00:51:06,046 --> 00:51:09,638 a top secret raccoon controlled military laser satellite 839 00:51:09,734 --> 00:51:12,490 and show those raccoons who's in charge. 840 00:51:13,550 --> 00:51:17,850 This was so God damn stupid. 841 00:51:18,590 --> 00:51:22,134 But at the same time I think this movie broke 842 00:51:22,182 --> 00:51:25,276 my brain because whenever the raccoons

843 00:51:25,308 --> 00:51:29,324 were on screen, they were just like stiff raccoon 844 00:51:29,372 --> 00:51:32,680 puppets that had no move, like they couldn't move. 845 00:51:32,980 --> 00:51:36,284 And they were shooting what they were shooting 846 00:51:36,332 --> 00:51:39,692 machine guns or AKs or whatever, but they were 847 00:51:39,716 --> 00:51:43,212 looking, looking away from where they were shooting. So the head was here 848 00:51:43,236 --> 00:51:46,892 and the guns are pointing this way. And the noises these raccoons make were. 849 00:51:46,916 --> 00:51:49,980 Like, oh my God, that's too funny. 850 00:51:50,060 --> 00:51:53,548 Anytime they were on screen, I literally just started bursting out 851 00:51:53,604 --> 00:51:56,712 laughing, giggling like I was stoned off my ass. Like I just 852 00:51:56,736 --> 00:52:00,040 couldn't stop to the point where I had a hard time breathing. 853 00:52:00,200 --> 00:52:03,720 I love it. I love it. And Connor even comes out 854 00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:07,416 going, what the hell is wrong with him? And Erica's going, I think we've 855 00:52:07,448 --> 00:52:11,580 watched one one too many bad Christmas movies and we've broken Scott 856 00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:15,912 because I was just. I will probably never watch this again, 857 00:52:16,016 --> 00:52:19,352 but God damn, did I just have a dumb 858 00:52:19,416 --> 00:52:23,034 fun time laughing my ass off at this. I'm glad 859 00:52:23,082 --> 00:52:26,826 you enjoyed it. And it sounds like, I hope you can't hear my dog sparking 860 00:52:26,858 --> 00:52:30,410 in the background. We can, but it's not too bad. Okay, what's the next 861 00:52:30,450 --> 00:52:34,906 one? The next one is. These are all on tubi, 862 00:52:34,938 --> 00:52:38,826 by the way. Okay, the next one is Sleigh Bells. 863 00:52:39,018 --> 00:52:42,538 And this is bells as in beauties 864 00:52:42,634 --> 00:52:45,002 B E L L E S type Bells, babes, 865 00:52:45,066 --> 00:52:48,618 babes. It's 2018 release, 866 00:52:48,754 --> 00:52:53,054 77 minute run time. While urban exploring in an abandoned amusement park, 867 00:52:53,202 --> 00:52:56,582 cosplaying girls accidentally unleash the vicious holiday beast known 868 00:52:56,606 --> 00:52:59,990 as Krampus. With the help of Santa Claus, can these girls stop 869 00:53:00,030 --> 00:53:03,462 Krampus from his killing spree? Yeah, this was just a 870 00:53:03,566 --> 00:53:06,982 silly, low budget, over the top acting, 871 00:53:07,126 --> 00:53:10,742 boobs, gore. Just ridiculous. 872 00:53:10,806 --> 00:53:14,294 But also kind of entertaining Christmas movie. Nice. There's not a 873 00:53:14,302 --> 00:53:17,158 lot to say about it. Like, it's just low budget. It is what it is. 874 00:53:17,214 --> 00:53:20,512 Sleigh bell says it all. Now this one, the next 875 00:53:20,536 --> 00:53:24,448 one I'm going to talk about. This one actually was a nice 876 00:53:24,544 --> 00:53:27,632 surprise. Now bring up the name 877 00:53:27,656 --> 00:53:32,240 of it on Litter Box real quick. This one is Amityville 878 00:53:32,320 --> 00:53:35,712 Christmas Vacation. Oh yeah. An Amityville 879 00:53:35,776 --> 00:53:39,296 movie from 2022 with a beautifully 880 00:53:39,408 --> 00:53:43,312 sweet, like, know what? They've got runtime of 50 minutes. 881 00:53:43,456 --> 00:53:47,536 Fuck yeah. Wally has won a vacation to sunny Amityville. 882 00:53:47,648 --> 00:53:51,644 While there he met a woman. A ghost woman. Can spirit of Christmas 883 00:53:51,692 --> 00:53:54,908 bring these two opposites together? That is the synopsis. 884 00:53:55,004 --> 00:53:58,556 I love it. I love it. This was actually quite 885 00:53:58,668 --> 00:54:02,300 cute and charming and funny. Like, I was shocked because I'm going, 886 00:54:02,340 --> 00:54:05,852 oh God, Amityville. This is going to be terrible because there has not 887 00:54:05,876 --> 00:54:09,132 been a good Amityville movie since. Like, I don't even. 888 00:54:09,316 --> 00:54:12,480 Yeah, like everything is just trash. 889 00:54:13,700 --> 00:54:17,682 But whatever the director did with this, like he knew what he had. The actors 890 00:54:17,746 --> 00:54:20,850 knew what they were doing. Like they knew that what type of movie they were 891 00:54:20,890 --> 00:54:24,514 portraying. It was silly, it was ridiculous, 892 00:54:24,562 --> 00:54:28,418 it was super low budget. But it was also just very cute and 893 00:54:28,474 --> 00:54:31,986 charming. Where I actually adored the two main leads 894 00:54:32,018 --> 00:54:35,650 in this film a lot. And I actually would buy this movie. It was like, 895 00:54:35,690 --> 00:54:38,722 this one could be a Christmas tradition. Like for me now. Like, this was a 896 00:54:38,746 --> 00:54:42,114 really just fun little film that just surprised 897 00:54:42,162 --> 00:54:45,170 the hell out of me. That's sweet. And that's on Tubi as well. Yes. 898 00:54:45,250 --> 00:54:48,434 Well, there we go. We have Terror Tuesday, Thai Extreme, 899 00:54:48,482 --> 00:54:49,310 and three, 900 00:54:52,890 --> 00:54:57,298 this really is scraping the bottle of the barrel 2024 901 00:54:57,354 --> 00:55:00,830 December show. I love it. 902 00:55:01,610 --> 00:55:05,218 For the first time in a long time, we're going to talk about a podcast. 903 00:55:05,314 --> 00:55:08,546 It's been very long time. Besides, don't use a horror. 904 00:55:08,578 --> 00:55:11,698 Oh yeah, besides, like all the podcasts that we usually talk 905 00:55:11,754 --> 00:55:14,890 about, but one that's different. So for any of 906 00:55:14,930 --> 00:55:18,938 those who live in Canada or visited Canada and believe in ghosts 907 00:55:18,954 --> 00:55:22,170 and supernatural, there is a podcast called 908 00:55:22,210 --> 00:55:25,642 Haunted Canada. It is a do it yourself podcast and it 909 00:55:25,666 --> 00:55:29,226 is run by a woman who does ghost walks in

British 910 00:55:29,258 --> 00:55:33,018 Columbia. So she has traveled all around Canada and 911 00:55:33,074 --> 00:55:36,842 has done different ghost walks and stayed at haunted places. So a lot of the 912 00:55:36,866 --> 00:55:40,542 places she talks about, she's actually stayed at. She chooses 913 00:55:40,606 --> 00:55:44,222 two hauntings per or, sorry, three hauntings per episode 914 00:55:44,366 --> 00:55:48,910 and she tells the story. So it's a little history, a little folklore, 915 00:55:49,070 --> 00:55:52,430 all wrapped up in a nice 45 minute less or less 916 00:55:52,550 --> 00:55:56,222 episode. So if you're into ghosties and you're looking for kind 917 00:55:56,246 --> 00:55:59,182 of someone who I would say is a step above Scott and I when it 918 00:55:59,206 --> 00:56:02,718 comes to production value and just doing a pretty 919 00:56:02,734 --> 00:56:06,290 good podcast in general, but you're looking for more of that supernatural 920 00:56:07,300 --> 00:56:10,684 true stories in Canada. And she does a real good mix. Some of 921 00:56:10,692 --> 00:56:14,812 them I'm familiar with them, some of them I'm not. It's, it's a 922 00:56:14,836 --> 00:56:18,880 really good little podcast. It's called Haunted Canada. You can find it on Spotify, 923 00:56:19,700 --> 00:56:23,164 Apple podcasts, basically anywhere where you listen. And I 924 00:56:23,172 --> 00:56:25,804 would say go give it a. Go give it a listen if you're into that 925 00:56:25,812 --> 00:56:29,404 kind of thing. Nice. I'll say. That sounds familiar. 926 00:56:29,452 --> 00:56:32,972 Haunted Canada. Yeah. There's a TV show. Okay. And for 927 00:56:32,996 --> 00:56:36,316 some reason she's doing a podcast. I hope she doesn't get in trouble because there's 928 00:56:36,348 --> 00:56:39,752 a TV show. But anyway, I don't think 929 00:56:39,776 --> 00:56:43,224 it's by the same person either. Oh, gotcha. That's why I, I. 930 00:56:43,312 --> 00:56:46,648 But hey, you know what? It's Canadian and no one watches it. 931 00:56:46,704 --> 00:56:50,008 So, you know, she's probably fine. So. 932 00:56:50,064 --> 00:56:53,672 But yeah, that's why it sounds familiar is because there's a 933 00:56:53,696 --> 00:56:57,272 TV show that I probably talked about on here before that's probably. 934 00:56:57,416 --> 00:57:01,064 And now it's a podcast. So she was doing a couple 935 00:57:01,112 --> 00:57:04,030 episodes, she stopped and then she came back. 936 00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:08,290 So I'm. Yeah. Anyway, if you're interested into ghost stories, 937 00:57:08,370 --> 00:57:11,442 check it out. Nice. Yeah, I, like, 938 00:57:11,466 --> 00:57:15,234 I promised I came back with some book talk because 939 00:57:15,322 --> 00:57:18,706 last episode I did not finish either of the books 940 00:57:18,738 --> 00:57:22,370 I was listening to or listening or reading. And I 941 00:57:22,410 --> 00:57:25,858 finished both of them. One of them is a re. 942 00:57:25,914 --> 00:57:29,570 Listen slash reread. And that is under the Dome by 943 00:57:29,610 --> 00:57:32,962 Stephen King. This one is about a 944 00:57:33,146 --> 00:57:36,722 little like just a tiny little town that all 945 00:57:36,746 --> 00:57:39,890 of a sudden a dome that shapes the 946 00:57:39,930 --> 00:57:43,826 border of this town just appears out of nowhere. Just like slams 947 00:57:43,858 --> 00:57:47,426 over the top of the town. Sounds like the typical starting of a Stephen 948 00:57:47,458 --> 00:57:51,170 King novel. A tiny little town. And bullshit happens in 949 00:57:51,210 --> 00:57:54,386 Maine. In Maine. And bullshit goes down. 950 00:57:54,538 --> 00:57:57,810 But yeah, like this dome just comes crashing down like 951 00:57:57,850 --> 00:58:00,962 slices animals in half that were like walking across the line. 952 00:58:01,066 --> 00:58:04,578 Oh, Jesus Christ. Cars going 953 00:58:04,634 --> 00:58:08,354 full speed into this dome and crashing and dying. Because it's just like, you know, 954 00:58:08,362 --> 00:58:12,162 it's like a solid material but it's invisible and planes crashing in 955 00:58:12,186 --> 00:58:15,170 the air because it's reaching way up in the sky and stuff. So it's, 956 00:58:15,250 --> 00:58:18,306 you know, it's a horrific little opening segment for this book. 957 00:58:18,378 --> 00:58:22,230 And then it's just basically the story of what 958 00:58:22,270 --> 00:58:25,910 would you. What would these townsfolk do if they were cut off 959 00:58:25,950 --> 00:58:29,030 from the rest of the world, only had like 960 00:58:29,070 --> 00:58:33,206 a limited amount of supplies in their stores, had a corrupt 961 00:58:33,318 --> 00:58:36,822 councilman of the city running the show and basically 962 00:58:36,886 --> 00:58:40,214 trying to be a dictator during all of this. 963 00:58:40,302 --> 00:58:44,102 And basically just showing the breakdown of civilization 964 00:58:44,246 --> 00:58:47,222 in this town within less than a week. 965 00:58:47,406 --> 00:58:51,454 And I read, I listened to this book probably 10 to 966 00:58:51,542 --> 00:58:55,006 10 or so years ago, fell in love with it. This is. And re listening 967 00:58:55,038 --> 00:58:58,510 to it. I think I have to say this, like not a lot of people 968 00:58:58,550 --> 00:59:01,646 are fans of the ending. I don't mind the ending of this one, but I'm 969 00:59:01,678 --> 00:59:04,974 also the known quantity that Stephen King has a 970 00:59:04,982 --> 00:59:08,254 hard time making a good ending for his books. Majority of 971 00:59:08,262 --> 00:59:11,502 the time he has amazing stories, just has 972 00:59:11,526 --> 00:59:15,022 a hard time figuring out a good ending. This one though, this is probably one 973 00:59:15,046 --> 00:59:18,206 of my favorite. This is if not my all time favorite, 974 00:59:18,238 --> 00:59:21,610 Stephen King. Not okay. Like, I just love the. 975 00:59:21,730 --> 00:59:25,194 All

the characters because in a Stephen King novel you got like 30 976 00:59:25,282 --> 00:59:28,938 or so characters that you're following and getting to know really 977 00:59:28,994 --> 00:59:32,906 well. And. And it's. You know, he's great at that and great at the details 978 00:59:32,938 --> 00:59:36,410 and just building up these characters and the stuff that happens in the 979 00:59:36,450 --> 00:59:40,058 story. It's just like horrific, but also just fascinating where I was gripped 980 00:59:40,074 --> 00:59:43,178 the entire time. So this is one of my favorite Stephen King books 981 00:59:43,194 --> 00:59:46,368 of all time. Recommend it to anybody if they haven't read or listen 982 00:59:46,384 --> 00:59:48,832 to it. But it is a really long book. I think this was like a 983 00:59:48,856 --> 00:59:51,600 36 hour read on Audible. That is long. 984 00:59:51,640 --> 00:59:55,008 Okay. Yeah. But the next one is a 985 00:59:55,064 --> 00:59:58,448 book that I covered the. Another movie or I covered another 986 00:59:58,504 --> 01:00:01,904 of this author's books before. And the author is Nick Cutter. And the 987 01:00:01,912 --> 01:00:05,600 book that I talked about before was the Troop. Yeah, Throwback to 988 01:00:05,640 --> 01:00:09,232 Body Horror. Yeah. Yeah. He had another book that 989 01:00:09,256 --> 01:00:12,748 I kept seeing people talking about called the Deep. And this 990 01:00:12,804 --> 01:00:15,756 one also dives into a bit of the body horror, 991 01:00:15,788 --> 01:00:19,580 which is awesome. But it starts off with the world 992 01:00:19,700 --> 01:00:23,340 has been infected by this disease called the 993 01:00:23,380 --> 01:00:26,732 GETs. And what it is is this disease 994 01:00:26,796 --> 01:00:30,268 that has like a insanely severe 995 01:00:30,364 --> 01:00:33,260 case of Alzheimer's where, 996 01:00:33,380 --> 01:00:37,356 okay, you. Where the people, you know, like, they start forgetting 997 01:00:37,468 --> 01:00:40,962 little things here and there, forgetting their name, start forgetting who 998 01:00:40,986 --> 01:00:44,274 you are, you know, typical, like, unfortunate Alzheimer's effects. Yeah. 999 01:00:44,322 --> 01:00:47,970 Then it gets worse to the point where they can't even remember how to do 1000 01:00:48,010 --> 01:00:51,346 normal functions like eating or breathing, until they 1001 01:00:51,418 --> 01:00:54,674 basically die because they can't do any of these things. And that is dark. 1002 01:00:54,722 --> 01:00:58,114 Yeah, I'll say. That's the start of this book where it's like this disease is 1003 01:00:58,202 --> 01:01:01,954 ongoing and the main character gets called upon 1004 01:01:02,002 --> 01:01:05,946 by the military because his brother is like, they're super smart 1005 01:01:06,098 --> 01:01:09,962 scientists that's trying to figure out a cure for this disease. He believe 1006 01:01:10,066 --> 01:01:14,058 the brother believes he found a cure deep down in the Mariana Trench. 1007 01:01:14,154 --> 01:01:18,090 So they have this submarine base set up down in the Mariana Trench. 1008 01:01:18,250 --> 01:01:21,786 So the brother, the main character, gets shipped over 1009 01:01:21,858 --> 01:01:24,970 to this sea bunker and they go down 1010 01:01:25,010 --> 01:01:28,826 in this submarine to get to the space station or underwater 1011 01:01:28,858 --> 01:01:32,442 station. And that is where the true horror begins. 1012 01:01:32,506 --> 01:01:36,376 Because they have found what could possibly be the cure called 1013 01:01:36,448 --> 01:01:40,184 ambrosia. And for some people that may not know, ambrosia is also 1014 01:01:40,272 --> 01:01:43,624 the nickname of food of the gods, which is 1015 01:01:43,712 --> 01:01:46,580 something in like, old ancient Greek, I believe. 1016 01:01:47,440 --> 01:01:51,352 But yeah, it's this like, weird algae that seems to 1017 01:01:51,456 --> 01:01:54,088 reconstruct and rebuild, like, 1018 01:01:54,144 --> 01:01:57,960 wounds and can kind of bring people's memory 1019 01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:01,202 back and stuff like that. But of course, there is 1020 01:02:01,226 --> 01:02:04,530 a much darker, sinister thing taking hold with this 1021 01:02:04,570 --> 01:02:08,610 ambrosia. And it's actually more like a Lovecraftian 1022 01:02:08,690 --> 01:02:11,986 nightmare beast in a way. Your thing completely. 1023 01:02:12,018 --> 01:02:15,394 Yeah. And it starts taking over the body and kind of gives me the thing 1024 01:02:15,482 --> 01:02:18,866 vibes. Nice, nice. And yeah, it's like the Thing meets 1025 01:02:18,898 --> 01:02:22,210 that Leviathan movie that Erica introduced me to a couple years back. 1026 01:02:22,330 --> 01:02:25,968 And this gets really claustrophobic and 1027 01:02:26,114 --> 01:02:29,492 horror centric and made me just like go, ooh, 1028 01:02:29,556 --> 01:02:33,044 this is creepy as fuck. This is. Yeah. 1029 01:02:33,092 --> 01:02:36,676 Nick Cutter is becoming one of my new new favorite modern 1030 01:02:36,708 --> 01:02:39,956 day authors. Like, I'm loving his work. He kind of hits 1031 01:02:39,988 --> 01:02:43,508 that 80s horror feel. I love it. I love it. Well, I'm glad. I'm glad 1032 01:02:43,524 --> 01:02:45,652 that you brought two more books by the end of the year. You know, 1033 01:02:45,676 --> 01:02:48,596 you did start that this year and I'm glad we were able to kind of 1034 01:02:48,668 --> 01:02:51,572 knock it off. Kind of like how we usually would. Some older watches or other 1035 01:02:51,596 --> 01:02:54,724 watches, a podcast, books, a handful of 1036 01:02:54,732 --> 01:02:58,980 2024 that we dug out with standouts. 1037 01:02:59,060 --> 01:03:02,372 Got two more books that I'm doing right now that I might have for next 1038 01:03:02,396 --> 01:03:05,684 episode, but I'm doing Damnation Game by Clive Barker. Oh, nice. 1039 01:03:05,812 --> 01:03:09,060 And I'm listening to Stephen King's Misery for

the first time. 1040 01:03:09,100 --> 01:03:12,660 Oh, awesome. Yeah, very nice. But the amount we record that will be in 2026. 1041 01:03:12,700 --> 01:03:15,416 That we'll talk about. Exactly. Skip over 2025. 1042 01:03:15,607 --> 01:03:19,412 2025 is just this. That year doesn't happen. We're like too much 1043 01:03:19,436 --> 01:03:22,612 going on. I wonder. Yeah. Like Scott and I will give 1044 01:03:22,636 --> 01:03:25,604 the heads up before we stop recording. Like we're not going to just break up 1045 01:03:25,612 --> 01:03:28,804 with you guys and go stone silent. We'll do a final episode 1046 01:03:28,852 --> 01:03:32,292 and say this is it. Yeah. And I think we're gonna have to 1047 01:03:32,316 --> 01:03:35,972 really look at after we do our top 100. Our end of the 1048 01:03:35,996 --> 01:03:38,954 year. Our top ones from 23, 1049 01:03:39,046 --> 01:03:42,052 24 or what? No, 20. 2024. Right. 1050 01:03:42,156 --> 01:03:45,412 How much we want to do in 2025. I think it will. We'll have 1051 01:03:45,436 --> 01:03:48,932 to have a really big conversation about that because I know 1052 01:03:49,036 --> 01:03:52,644 I will be traveling a lot coming up next year and Scott 1053 01:03:52,692 --> 01:03:56,580 is getting married. So come. It could be a lot of business. Summer, 1054 01:03:56,660 --> 01:04:00,180 you're going to be very busy. So I think we may have to make 1055 01:04:00,220 --> 01:04:04,068 some. We're not saying that we're going anywhere. We're just saying that I think 1056 01:04:04,124 --> 01:04:07,540 we're not saying it's you as us, but we'll see. 1057 01:04:07,580 --> 01:04:11,988 We want to definitely though do our 24. 2024 awards. 1058 01:04:12,164 --> 01:04:16,020 The thing that we wanted to do with our. Our top movies from the years 1059 01:04:16,060 --> 01:04:19,000 that we watched that Will probably be split into two episodes, 1060 01:04:20,140 --> 01:04:23,620 and then we'll see where we go from there. Yeah. And we'll see what 2025 1061 01:04:23,660 --> 01:04:26,740 brings. We'll see. Yeah. I was like, yeah, we're definitely not done. We'll, we have, 1062 01:04:26,780 --> 01:04:30,052 we still have the bottom of the barrel, 2025 to scrape up. 1063 01:04:30,236 --> 01:04:33,476 It just, we made. To end up being. We have been a monthly podcast, 1064 01:04:33,508 --> 01:04:36,980 and I feel as though if we continue, it will be a monthly podcast. 1065 01:04:37,140 --> 01:04:40,772 Yeah. And probably just because it just makes it easier on us now with 1066 01:04:40,796 --> 01:04:44,120 a lot of our lives, like, just our lives are changing. It happens, right? 1067 01:04:44,160 --> 01:04:47,512 It is. And, and Scott's getting married, and that's a really big deal, and we 1068 01:04:47,536 --> 01:04:51,128 need to, like, spend a lot of time preparing for that beautiful day, 1069 01:04:51,184 --> 01:04:54,680 the shenanigans that will occur. Well. And just making 1070 01:04:54,720 --> 01:04:57,140 sure that Erica still really wants to do this. 1071 01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:00,744 I, I, I keep, I keep asking her, are you sure? 1072 01:05:00,832 --> 01:05:03,896 Are you feeling okay?
