The Friday Nightmares Podcast: Episode 100
Heather Powell: Welcome to the hundredth episode,
Heather Powell: hundredth episode of the Friday Nightmares
Heather Powell: podcast. Yes, this is very special because for those of you
Heather Powell: who have stuck with us for 100 episodes,
Heather Powell: starting back in January of
Heather Powell: 2020, before the world fell apart and rebuilt again,
Heather Powell: we made it to this point. We have changed a lot over the years and
Heather Powell: we're really glad that you have stayed with us or joined us or
Heather Powell: hate listened. I don't know. Whatever you've done, we are here for
Heather Powell: it. My name is Heather Powell. I am from Water
Heather Powell: Down, Ontario, and I am one half of the Friday Nightmares podcasting
Heather Powell: team. And with me, as always, is Mr.
Smokeshow: Smokeshow Crawford, coming to you from the town of
Scott: Sports Creek in the county of Genesee in the state of
Scott: Michigan, in the United States of America, in the North American
Scott: continent, in the Western hemisphere, on the planet Earth,
Scott: in the Milky Way galaxy, I'm fully vaxxed, boosted and
Scott: waxed and ready to climax. And if you can please get me wet and
Scott: feed me after midnight, I'm the man with the glorious beard,
Mother of Cats: AKA Mother of Cats, AKA the man with the
Scott: humongous ego, AKA Scott Housing,
Scotty: AKA Scotty Too Hottie, AKA Spanky,
Scott: AKA Hey Scott. Heather Powell: Hey, Scott.
Heather Powell: Hey, hey Scott. Scott: And Connor's over on the other
Scott: side and I just hear him go, what the fuck? Heather Powell: I love it.
Heather Powell: I love it. I think more we should do a podcast on how much Scott,
Heather Powell: like, Scott's life has changed. Like, besides me just sucking more dick
Heather Powell: over the last couple of years, that's,
Heather Powell: that's it. Scott, on the other hand, like, has a fucking
Heather Powell: family now. He has a cute little one
Heather Powell: eyed dog named river, which basically beyond belongs on sbca,
Heather Powell: like, commercial of how you can make a difference. He has a
Heather Powell: beautiful, breathtaking fiance and I really,
Heather Powell: I'm really glad that I put these years in with Scott to get Erica.
Heather Powell: Yes, I knew that if I stuck it out long enough,
Heather Powell: something good would come my way. Scott: You, you gained a
Scott: Scotty and then you gained a family. Heather Powell: I did,
Heather Powell: I did. And Blaze, you can't forget about
Heather Powell: little Blaze. Scott: Oh, yeah, my little gecko Blaze. He, my little
Scott: dragon. Heather Powell: Right? And Scott's dating history, which has been more
Heather Powell: horrific than some of this. Scott: Yeah, I was gonna say,
Scott: I don't know. I don't know what the listeners came here for. The movies that
Scott: we've talked about over the years or my horrendous dating history
Scott: for the first three years. Heather Powell: Right?
Scott: Because, yeah, we're coming up on our five year anniversary of our
Scott: show, which is fucking crazy, crazy, crazy.
Scott: But for the people that may have not seen my post on the Friday
Scott: Nightmares page. We decided instead of doing the top 30 of
Scott: 2020-2023 for episode 100, like, we're, you know, our episode today,
Scott: we decided to hold off because we have, for one, we haven't recorded
Scott: since before October. And so we got a lot of
Scott: 2024 to talk about and I'm already starting to forget a lot of
Scott: them. And we figured if we waited till the next episode,
Scott: which will probably be in December, knowing us, we will have
Scott: like two movies that we remember. But we decided we'll do
Scott: it in January when pickings are very slim for 2025.
Scott: And it also will lead into our five year anniversary
Scott: and we can do 2020 to 2024 films.
Scott: Our top 30 of that. Heather Powell: Yes, yes. Scott: Which makes more sense
Scott: and it just makes it easier on us because, yeah, we crammed a lot in
Scott: over this last month or so. Like, I have, at least
Scott: for me, I actually got 18 watches in, which is
Scott: pretty good for what I. Heather Powell: Those are good
Heather Powell: new numbers compared to the 200 in a month that you used to do in
Heather Powell: 2020. Scott: Yeah, I didn't have a life back then. It was a
Scott: bit different. Heather Powell: No. Well, and we went through a pandemic too. Right.
Heather Powell: Like, Scott and I literally met, hung out three times.
Heather Powell: Pandemic. And then continued to
Heather Powell: podcast throughout all that. And as Scott's life has
Heather Powell: changed. More Scott than me. Not that, you know. Oh,
Heather Powell: it's all because of Scott. We don't record. He just has new responsibilities now with
Heather Powell: having kids in the house. That's just a reality. His life has changed and,
Heather Powell: you know, it becomes less rigid. And I think
Heather Powell: that's just normal with all podcasts. Like, I have such respect for podcasts
Heather Powell: like dummies of horror who have been. What is.
Heather Powell: What are they on episode 200 or something? Like, isn't it
Heather Powell: wild? Scott: I think it was like 250 or something. Yeah. Like,
Scott: and. And then, you know, fucking kudos to Tim for doing
Scott: an episode a day for October.
Scott: Like, for 31 days of horror. Like, Jesus Christ.
Scott: I would never be able to like do for one talk by
Scott: myself. I would be like, I don't know what to say.
Scott: Yeah, for another, actually doing it and releasing it
Scott: consistently every day, not missing a beat. That is fucking
Scott: impressive. Heather Powell: And I listen to every shout out his wife who supports
Heather Powell: him so he can do that. Like, let's give Jalisa her props
Heather Powell: here. Scott: Huge props to. Heather Powell: Yeah, that's actually
Heather Powell: given more to Jaleesa than we hear because she's taking care of three children
Heather Powell: while he's like, I got a podcast for my 18 patreons.
Scott: We love you, Tim. Heather Powell: Which is true, though. But yeah, when you have people
Heather Powell: like that, or Dave C. And Christian Luciani from the
Heather Powell: exploding Movie Heads podcast, Mark Nadeau, the Horror
Heather Powell: Returns. Like, people that have hundreds of episodes out
Heather Powell: there, you know, and we're just a little baby podcast that made it to 100.
Heather Powell: So, Scotty, I'm glad we made it here. I'm glad that I've got to
Heather Powell: do this with you. Over the past four years and anytime we both have thought
Heather Powell: about quitting, we. We're just like Brokeback Mountain,
Heather Powell: minus the anal sex.
Heather Powell: We just can't quit Friday nightmares. Or bad horror movies
Heather Powell: for that matter either. Uncorked films. I'm gonna throw Lionsgate
Heather Powell: into that as well, since Lionsgate always comes up with the weirdest
Heather Powell: shit. Scott: And then the indie.
Scott: Indie stuff that I've been watching, like. Heather Powell: The real indie,
Heather Powell: not indie, like uncorked indie. We're talking like uncorked has even
Heather Powell: like, nah.
Heather Powell: Right? And just like, just to be clear,
Heather Powell: over the past 100 episodes, Scott and I may have said things
Heather Powell: about podcasters that we know. Please know that it's all jokes.
Heather Powell: We have no idea what our podcaster fellow people vote in
Heather Powell: elections, for example, nor do we know what they do in their
Heather Powell: spare time. Except for Tim. We actually know what Tim does. All he does is
Heather Powell: watch Jaws and dress up as Leatherface.
Scott: I mean, Rob. Heather Powell: And Rob hates on horror movies. Scott: Well, I was saying it's
Scott: fair with Tim because he's got all this free time because, you know, Luffy is
Scott: the one that does all the editing and all that for the show. Heather Powell: So,
Heather Powell: yeah, he's a true premium professional podcaster.
Heather Powell: So if Scott and I have said something over the years, we probably have forgotten.
Heather Powell: Yes. Even if it was on the episode that we just recorded,
Heather Powell: Scott and I forget we have very short
Heather Powell: term memories that of Fleas. I don't even remember I
Heather Powell: made my comment about my oral sex giving after. I just forgot that
Heather Powell: I gave this podcast referral to a co worker of mine. So to that co
Heather Powell: worker who's listening. I warned you. Now you're just
Heather Powell: getting the uncensored version of Heather, which is more extreme than what you've already
Heather Powell: seen in the workplace. But I did warn her, so hopefully if she's listening
Heather Powell: still, she's just like, oh, Heather.
Heather Powell: But yes, thank you everyone for being here. And I
Heather Powell: don't know being here for the ride, whether you listen once or a hundred times,
Heather Powell: it was very. Or more than that because. Well, no. Well, I guess if you
Heather Powell: count our guest spots on other shows and stuff like that. Scott: Well, guest spots.
Scott: And then also the episodes we did for Patreon that we did release
Scott: on our feed as well. Heather Powell: Yeah, yep. Scott: Guests we
Scott: had on our show, like, so thank you for everybody that's ever joined.
Heather Powell: Yeah, like, we, we really appreciate it. We really,
Heather Powell: really do. This has always been a hobby for Scott and I.
Heather Powell: We will. We don't take like, we joke about the premium podcasters. For anyone who
Heather Powell: doesn't know we are joking. Neither Scott or I think we're
Heather Powell: premium nor do we think we're professional.
Heather Powell: It's always just been a running joke. Scott: I'll say. We don't take this as seriously
Scott: as others. We take this as a way to hang out and just shoot the
Scott: shit about movies and the fact that a lot of you listeners
Scott: appreciate the depths that we go to
Scott: to find new release films and kind of take notes,
Scott: that means a lot because yeah, we're just doing this for fun and we
Scott: just, you know, we just watch horror movies because we're fucking nerds.
Heather Powell: We are. And we're. And we're besties. We're family. Scott and I
Heather Powell: are family. We're actually siblings. Even though our mothers are in
Heather Powell: different countries and we were raised in different countries. Doesn't matter. We are
Heather Powell: actually separated by birth by a couple of years older,
Heather Powell: but we are definitely brother and sister and
Heather Powell: we have a very, very close relationships. So this does provide
Heather Powell: us that Scott said a good avenue to hang out and judge
Heather Powell: other people. But more importantly, Scott, you know Halloween's over,
Heather Powell: right? Scott: Yes, the post, the post Halloween depression
Scott: happens. Heather Powell: No, no, Scott. Now as
Heather Powell: elite horror fans, we have to get mad at
Heather Powell: the people that only watched horror movies in the month of October and
Heather Powell: make sure we complain about it for the next 11 months. Because God forbid
Heather Powell: anybody just enjoy horror movies in the month of
Heather Powell: October. Scott: How dare they? Heather Powell: That is
Heather Powell: my biggest. That, that I don't hold back on. That is
Heather Powell: my biggest pet peeve about the horror community.
Heather Powell: I really do believe that, like people that get upset that people
Heather Powell: like to watch horror movies in October but not the rest of the year.
Heather Powell: What the fuck is wrong with you? Scott: Yeah, I'll say. It's gatekeeping. Heather Powell: It is.
Heather Powell: For no reason. Let people like what they like. Scott: Yep.
Scott: Like, hey, the fact that they enjoy horror movies and watch
Scott: them in October, awesome. Like that's great, you know, but like, you don't
Scott: have to watch them all year. Heather Powell: I watch Christmas movies at Christmas time.
Heather Powell: I don't watch them in July and I don't care if other people
Heather Powell: do. You know, I like. I watch good old cannibal movies
Heather Powell: all year round. There's some people that prefer their cannibalism in like February.
Scott: I mean, hell, I actually watched a Christmas
Scott: movie in Halloween or this month of Halloween. Heather Powell: You did. I'm actually
Heather Powell: saving that one for Christmas because I believe in watching it
Heather Powell: for the season. I'm supporting the fellow people that
Heather Powell: watch horror movies in Only in October.
Heather Powell: And I'm going to. Well, actually, before I finish that
Heather Powell: thought, isn't Halloween still going on for you? Because aren't
Heather Powell: you going somewhere tonight? Scott: Oh, yeah. Tonight is kind of like
Scott: the last hurrah for Halloween. We are going to a Halloween
Scott: party tonight. Heather Powell: What are you dressing up as? Scott: I didn't want to go buy another
Scott: costume, so I'm just. I didn't have the money until after
Scott: Halloween and by that point everything's gonna be gone anyway, so I'm just gonna go
Scott: as Jason Voorhees. And depending on
Scott: the weather, Erica bought a camp counselor outfit
Scott: to kind of do a couple's idea if the weather is good for it
Scott: because it's got like booty shorts and everything. So it's. Oh, it's a chilly
Scott: day. Heather Powell: Well, it won't be. It won't be that hot in the house later,
Heather Powell: huh? Scott, turn the heat
Heather Powell: up. Sorry. Scott: Oh, apparently from
Scott: what Connor was just saying, her friend told her she had addresses. A slut.
Heather Powell: I love it. I love it. I think you should turn the heat up in
Heather Powell: the house really hot for later when you guys get home. Like, oh, babe,
Heather Powell: I guess you got a booty shorts.
Scott: I said, I'm like, we're keeping these for role playing aspects later,
Scott: right? Heather Powell: Oh, fuck yeah. I hope she keeps them. Show that
Heather Powell: big booty of hers. She's got a. She's got a banging bar. She definitely
Heather Powell: should be showing it off. Remember, Scott, a year to your wedding.
Heather Powell: I still got my time. Scott: Yes. Yeah, I'll say. Yeah.
Scott: One year till the wedding. That is. Oh, boy. Gonna be insane. Like, we already
Scott: got a lot of stuff taken care of already, so it's exciting, but still got
Scott: a lot to do as well. Heather Powell: It's gonna be an exciting time.
Heather Powell: My Halloween was pretty chill this year. I got back from my trip, which feels
Heather Powell: like a million years ago. I'll talk about it later. Yeah, because I watched
Heather Powell: some movies with my good friend Mike.
Heather Powell: Mike. He's gonna be so bad. Mark,
Heather Powell: 5%. Sorry, Mark. And Mark is having his
Heather Powell: third book published. It Will be out in November
Heather Powell: and when it's released I'll talk about it on our next episode.
Heather Powell: But that is very exciting and it's gonna be about Peter Cushing.
Scott: Well, that is awesome. Congratulations, Mark. Heather Powell: Yeah, pretty. Pretty cool.
Heather Powell: So right. So while I was there, him and I had the
Heather Powell: pleasure of watching a couple of horror movies together. Some 20,
Heather Powell: 20 fours and an older film that I was only able
Heather Powell: to watch there. Oh yeah, right. In England.
Heather Powell: So I will talk about that later and I will share his thoughts on them
Heather Powell: as well because he had some. Some interesting thoughts as well that I
Heather Powell: thought I would share. So shouts out to him and thanks as always
Heather Powell: for everyone in England. I had a fab time. I went to the Rested Ghoul
Heather Powell: Cafe, which is still running strong. The horror themed
Heather Powell: cafe. I sent Scotty a picture of the hot chocolate that I had there that
Heather Powell: was in the skull glass. It was good. Scott: That was cool.
Heather Powell: Yeah, it was really cool. Scott: I'm jealous. Heather Powell: It was. Honestly, it's one of the coolest
Heather Powell: places to go to. I recommend it to anyone who's in the
Heather Powell: Gateshead Newcastle area. It's near the High
Heather Powell: Bridge or High Level bridge. Just google arrested
Heather Powell: Ghoul and go check it out. James and Helen are phenomenal.
Heather Powell: Thumbs up to them. They had a wedding there on Halloween,
Heather Powell: which was awesome. Not their wedding, they're married. But they had another wedding
Heather Powell: reception there. Yeah. And I went to Belfast, which was
Heather Powell: beautiful. Really fun. Listen to some good Irish music.
Heather Powell: Saw a bunch of COVID bands. Saw a band called the Force that reminded me
Heather Powell: so much of you. They looked like a medieval theme kind of band.
Heather Powell: I'm like, these are Scott's people. These are definitely Scott's
Heather Powell: people. Didn't do a lot of horror related stuff,
Heather Powell: but did watch some horror movies. So we'll talk about that. Just a lot of
Heather Powell: pubbing, drinking and live music, which is
Heather Powell: always something that I enjoy doing. I love being in England
Heather Powell: and I'm looking forward to going back next year and I'll be heading up Spain
Heather Powell: next year when I go. Scott: So nice. That'll be great.
Heather Powell: I'll be really annoying about that as well as we get closer.
Scott: Oh, I know. Oh, I know. I'm already prepared.
Heather Powell: Oh wait, one thing I'll add before we get into the movies. I did go
Heather Powell: to the place where Harry Potter was filmed. I went to Durham and
Heather Powell: I went to the cathedral where they filmed the Quidditch
Heather Powell: scenes and I saw where the hall where they
Heather Powell: ate was filmed. So that was pretty badass.
Heather Powell: That was pretty cool. I haven't really Been to a
Heather Powell: movie set like that before. Like, I've walked through movie sets here, but they're horror
Heather Powell: movie sets. Not to be like, they're not a big deal, but this is a
Heather Powell: major motion picture. Harry Potter is pretty fucking universally
Heather Powell: known, let me tell you. They capitalize on it in the gift shop.
Scott: Oh, I'm sure they do. Heather Powell: They're like,
Heather Powell: do you know where the fuck you are? Buy some shit. Scott: Like, we make
Scott: money off y'all. Heather Powell: Right, so here's to a
Heather Powell: good Halloween that has come and gone. Scotty and I had
Heather Powell: a separate good times. He had a good work costume. I went out to
Heather Powell: a Halloween party last week as Steampunk, which was great.
Heather Powell: And here's to a good party for you tonight, my friend. Scott: Well, thank you.
Scott: Yeah, I'll say. I did three costumes this year, which is unusual
Scott: for me. Normally it's just one and done, but I did Simon from
Scott: Neeb's Gaming, which only very small group people
Scott: would know, but it was just something silly I threw together for I love dinner.
Scott: We went to then. Yep, just then. I dressed as
Scott: the Huntsman from Snow White for work themed Halloween
Scott: day. Everybody was the Seven Dwarves or Snow White and I was
Scott: the Huntsman. And then, yep, Jason tonight. Heather Powell: I love it. I loved the theme work
Heather Powell: costume. I thought that was really clever. Scott: Yeah. I was gonna say I'm glad that
Scott: we got back into it because I think the last time we did it was
Scott: the wrestling costumes and that was years ago.
Heather Powell: I think that's the year we met. Scott: Yeah. Yeah. Because you've seen my hacksaw.
Scott: Jim Duggan. Heather Powell: Yeah. Yeah. That's a long time ago,
Heather Powell: Scott. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: Wow, you're so much older and wiser
Heather Powell: now. Yeah, older. Scott: I don't
Scott: know about why. It's true. Heather Powell: We're both
Heather Powell: pretty dumb because I chose to watch this film, so. Scott: Oh,
Scott: boy. Heather Powell: Well, we'll jump into it. Oh, no. My computer
Heather Powell: just shut down. Oh, no. Well, good thing I have my phone.
Heather Powell: Hold on. It's movies. The movie's called Subservice and I'm
Heather Powell: just going to go into letterbox here on my phone to read it. Oh,
Heather Powell: wait, that's the substance, which I forgot to put in earlier, which is of by
Heather Powell: far better movie. Let me go to my list.
Heather Powell: Fucking computer. I can't believe it. It just literally stopped working.
Heather Powell: Even it was like, this movie's a piece of shit. Heather, why did you watch
Heather Powell: this? Megan Fox is in this one and I don't know Megan Fox. We saw
Heather Powell: her in that one when she was married and kind of like handcuffed
Heather Powell: to the dead body. Remember her husband dies and she's stuck in this situation.
Heather Powell: Yeah, yeah. That wasn't too bad. It wasn't too bad.
Heather Powell: This was AI's bird.
Heather Powell: All right. Subservice Subservancy.
Heather Powell: Sorry, Subservancy. This is a 105
Heather Powell: minute runtime. This never should have been 105 minute runtime. It should have been
Heather Powell: a 90 minute runtime. Don't turn her on.
Heather Powell: And it's making fuck. Since she's really hot.
Heather Powell: Anyway, with his wife out
Heather Powell: sick, no one really knows what she's out sick with. Apparently she gets a heart
Heather Powell: transplant. I don't know how that even works in modern day society. And how she
Heather Powell: was absolutely fine. But anyway, a struggling father brings home
Heather Powell: a lifelike AI that looks like a supermodel.
Heather Powell: Like can you imagine if like maybe like Erica bringing home
Heather Powell: like, I don't know, Ryan Reynolds as like an AI model? It is like,
Heather Powell: oh yeah, Scott Ryan Reynolds.
Heather Powell: Water. Scott: I guess I'll go sleep on the couch,
Scott: right? Heather Powell: Anyway. Only to have
Heather Powell: his self. Aware. His self aware. New help. New help.
Heather Powell: Oh my God, what a dated term. Anyway, want everything her
Heather Powell: family has to offer, like the affection of her owner. And she'll kill to get
Heather Powell: it. I'm sure you can guess what happens in this movie.
Heather Powell: It doesn't take a rocket science to put it together. I watched
Heather Powell: this movie quite some time ago.
Heather Powell: Oh, this other person is like a woman waits in a hospital for a heart
Heather Powell: transplant. They also found that part really stupid. I'm glad they
Heather Powell: also equally wondered what was going on with that.
Heather Powell: Mike. Mike. Oh my God. Matt woods watched
Heather Powell: this movie. He gave it three and a half stars and Dave
Heather Powell: Bailey gave it two and a half. I think that's fair. From what I
Heather Powell: remember, it's your basic AI gone wonky.
Heather Powell: I did enjoy it enough for what it is.
Heather Powell: I wouldn't say it's anything overly special, so to
Heather Powell: say. But I think for a film that's capitalizing
Heather Powell: on the AI craze of oh no, it's AI,
Heather Powell: we're all gonna die. It was fine.
Heather Powell: Not needed to go out and run out and watch. But it was entertaining
Heather Powell: enough. If for some reason you haven't had enough of AI
Heather Powell: or Megan Fox, I don't know. You want to check out Megan Fox the entire
Heather Powell: movie? That's all probably worth your time as well.
Heather Powell: You can find it on Amazon,
Heather Powell: Apple, Google Play and hoopla.
Heather Powell: Again, this is not a need to rush out
Heather Powell: and watch. Only if you want to ogle Megan Fox or
Heather Powell: You're really obsessed with AI horror gone wrong. Do I
Heather Powell: recognize recommend this one Now I hope the next movie is yours,
Heather Powell: Scott, because I can't see anything. Scott: Now the next one is yours.
Scott: And his Last straw. Heather Powell: Oh, thank you. All right,
Heather Powell: perfect. You're a good friend. Last straw.
Heather Powell: This one was actually quite good. I really enjoyed this one. This is
Heather Powell: a kind of a survival isolation horror
Heather Powell: film. It's an 81 minute runtime, it knows its limit
Heather Powell: and it stays within it. A rural roadside
Heather Powell: diner becomes the host of a mechanic maniacal
Heather Powell: killing spree, leaving a young waitress to clean up the mess.
Heather Powell: After hard headed Nancy fires the staff at her dad's
Heather Powell: diner, she decides to cover the last shift of the night
Heather Powell: and is coming back to the day is coming back to
Heather Powell: haunt her. When things begin to spiral out of control,
Heather Powell: she must fight for her life over the course of one long night.
Heather Powell: That is the best synopsis of this movie. It is isolation
Heather Powell: horror done right. There was a movie that came out,
Heather Powell: I think it was last year, the year before, about a woman being isolated in
Heather Powell: a gas station with a shooter. Scott: Oh yeah,
Scott: right. Never watched it, but I heard of it. Heather Powell: Yeah, I remember I talked about
Heather Powell: it. I think it was on Shudder. And this is a lot gorier.
Heather Powell: So if you watch that movie and you were like kind of slow, wasn't paced
Heather Powell: too well, you're gonna really like this movie because it's paced
Heather Powell: very well, it moves quick, the characters
Heather Powell: are all very affable. You can get
Heather Powell: behind the final chick. You definitely want her to make it.
Heather Powell: Some people have said she's a bad person. I don't think she's a bad person
Heather Powell: at all. I didn't get the impression that she was an antagonist or an.
Heather Powell: Or an evil person or a bitch or whatever, you know, misogynist terms
Heather Powell: one wants to use to describe her. I just thought she was fed
Heather Powell: up with like people's bullshit and was like fuck this shit.
Heather Powell: And I thought it was empowering. I thought the kind
Heather Powell: of twist to the film is actually quite good.
Heather Powell: And I was surprised. I'll be honest, I was surprised.
Heather Powell: So Matt has given it. Matt Wood has given it
Heather Powell: three and a half stars. He says something very similar for me though.
Heather Powell: Apparently he's a sucker for horror films based around diners.
Heather Powell: Same. Matt, why don't you tell us what other horror films are based around
Heather Powell: diners? I didn't know that this was a thing. Please share
Heather Powell: because I also would like to know about some diner
Heather Powell: horror films. Kate Pollock from same podcast as Matt
Heather Powell: gave it three and a half stars their same seas with their score.
Heather Powell: So we're looking at, you know, and other people. Duncan McLeish also gave it
Heather Powell: three and a half stars so I would give it probably four. I enjoyed
Heather Powell: it a little bit more than they did, so I thought it was solid.
Heather Powell: I do recommend checking it out. It is available on.
Heather Powell: Oh, now I lost it. Let's see here. Apple TV,
Heather Powell: Google Play, YouTube, Microsoft and Amazon.
Heather Powell: Unlike Subservancy, I would say that's not really worth a rental
Heather Powell: price. I would wait till that's free. This one here, if you like isolation
Heather Powell: and survival horror, I would recommend whatever it's going
Heather Powell: for. 599. I don't think this is going to be like one of those crazy
Heather Powell: 1099 or 17 or I don't know, crazy amount for a rental. But I
Heather Powell: would say if you like isolation and survival horror, this could be for you and
Heather Powell: I would definitely recommend checking it out. Scott: Awesome. Yeah, I seen this one
Scott: or seen this one on like the streaming services and I was tempted
Scott: to check it out but I have not yet. So good to know. I will
Scott: add this to the list and see if I can get to it sometime soon.
Scott: The next one is me. I figure I'd give you a quick little
Scott: break and it's a big one. Oh boy.
Scott: I'm talking about Christmas during Halloween time. Oh boy.
Scott: So for my birthday, Erica decided
Scott: to take me to go see Terrafire the
Scott: in theaters. And I'll read the synopsis
Scott: real quick. It's got 125 minute runtime. The tagline
Scott: is, you better not shout, you better not cry. The synopsis is
Scott: five years after surviving Art the Clown's Halloween massacre.
Scott: Sienna and Jonathan are still struggling to rebuild their shattered
Scott: lives. As the holiday season approaches, they try to
Scott: embrace the Christmas spirit and leave the horrors of the past behind.
Scott: But just when they think they're safe, Art returns. Determined to turn their
Scott: holiday cheer into a new nightmare. The festive season
Scott: quickly unravels as Art unleashes this twisted brand of terror,
Scott: proving that no holiday is safe. Holy shit.
Scott: This movie. I mean I've talked about it before,
Scott: but yeah. Terrifier, Terrifier two. I love them.
Scott: Absolutely love Terrifier two. And Terrifier three
Scott: was just so damn fun.
Scott: And I gotta say, they added to
Scott: the story and lore of Art,
Scott: which was what was lacking from part two and made
Scott: a much more cohesive story this time around. Instead of like some
Scott: like kind of ambiguous things left for you to
Scott: try to figure out, they actually kind of explained some things. There's still stuff that
Scott: needs to be explained, but they're definitely coming out with a part
Scott: four. Damien Leone has already said that, but the budget
Scott: was upped because I believe the first film was around
Scott: or the second film was around 500,000 to a million dollars.
Scott: This one had a 2 million dollar budget. And I
Scott: have to say, let's give a round of applause for this.
Scott: This movie has once again, once again done gangbusters
Scott: at theater. I just looked up the box Office on a
Scott: $2 million budget. It is now worldwide made
Scott: $60 million. Heather Powell: Wow, that's a lot. That's a lot of money.
Scott: And opening weekend, it beat Joker Folly
Scott: do or whatever. It was the sequel to the Joker movie, like on opening
Scott: weekend, which is incredible. And I follow
Scott: David Howard Thornton on Facebook. And just seeing his reaction
Scott: and humbleness to all this and how shocked he is and
Scott: just like so just amazed at, you know, everything that's happening
Scott: with him. He's just like, this is incredible. And it just makes my heart happy
Scott: to see that he is skyrocketing in popularity with this character and
Scott: all. Right, back to the movie though. The gore, freaking awesome as hell.
Scott: So there are moments where I was even cringing
Scott: and I don't cringe very often. Normally I laugh at the super gory
Scott: parts and smile like an idiot, but there are even some points where I'm going,
Scott: oh, hell. And yeah,
Scott: there's. I think they may have topped
Scott: the bedroom scene from part two. Heather Powell: Really?
Scott: Yeah. There is a scene that's just like,
Scott: oh, oh, okay. And I, I gotta
Scott: applaud him because the effects look absolutely incredible.
Scott: The acting all around is great. Like Sienna
Scott: and Jonathan are once again just great characters.
Scott: David Howard Thornton as art is just always a freaking
Scott: hoot. Just because he's so silly and fun,
Scott: but also so mean. The editing was
Scott: a lot better this time because obviously with part two, it was two and a
Scott: half hours where I didn't mind it and it went
Scott: quickly with the second movie. There were parts where I'm going, okay, yeah,
Scott: that could be cut. That could be cut. I could see where they could have
Scott: trimmed it down. This one, it was two hours. It flew
Scott: by for me and don't really see anything they
Scott: could have cut from it. Like, it just added to the story. Everything was just
Scott: kind of building up. And yeah, this is probably my
Scott: number one movie of the year. Heather Powell: This is really. Scott: This is way up there.
Scott: This is. I had so much fun with this and I cannot wait to revisit
Scott: it around Christmas time. Like, this is a high High,
Scott: high recommend. Heather Powell: Well, I'm excited to hear that. Maybe myself,
Heather Powell: you and Brandon can watch it together. It's been a long time since we've watched
Heather Powell: a movie. Maybe will do that. I know it'll be a second watch for you
Heather Powell: but maybe the three of us could do that sometime. Scott: I think I would enjoy
Scott: the being the one that had the second watch and watching your guys reaction
Scott: going. Heather Powell: Yeah, yeah. I am a big
Heather Powell: fan of the first one. I did not like the second one as much.
Heather Powell: I found it dragged. So I am excited to see how I
Heather Powell: feel about this one. Scott: Yeah, I'm very curious. I think you will.
Scott: I'm still in the air if you will like it more than the
Scott: first one, but I think you'll definitely like it more than the second one.
Heather Powell: Well, I'm. I love the praise. Is it. Is it available to
Heather Powell: rent? Scott: Nope, it is still in theaters. But we do
Scott: have it at a good friend's Plex right now. Heather Powell: We do. So if you're Scott
Heather Powell: and I, you're vip but for everyone else it's in theaters. You're just going to
Heather Powell: have to wait. Scott: Yep. I think Damian said
Scott: that it will be available right around the
Scott: Christmas time to watch. Heather Powell: Nice. Well, that's perfect. That's. That sounds like
Heather Powell: a good holiday watch for me. Now this one we both watch.
Heather Powell: Do you want me to bring it in or do you want to bring it
Heather Powell: in? Scott: Yeah, you can bring it in and then I will hop in with
Scott: my thoughts because I have some. Heather Powell: No, I know you do.
Heather Powell: So this is the remake of. When was the original out?
Heather Powell: 80s 81 or something like that. Scott: It was like
Scott: 1979. Heather Powell: Okay, so it was late 70s. So Salem's
Heather Powell: Lot, 2024. Just like we had a remake of Children of the Corn
Heather Powell: that tanked. I feel like Salem's Lot
Heather Powell: was coming in hot. Hoping that it could like do better.
Heather Powell: Be careful what you invite. Inside author Ben Mears returns
Heather Powell: to his childhood home of. How do I say this?
Heather Powell: Jerusalem. Scott: Jerusalem. Heather Powell: Jerusalem is what it's actually.
Heather Powell: Okay. I was like, that's actually what it's called, Jerusalem's Lot. Only to
Heather Powell: discover his hometown is being preyed upon by a bloodthirsty
Heather Powell: vampire. Very short synopsis
Heather Powell: in terms of ratings from other podcasters. Lots of people
Heather Powell: have seen this. Tim Davis is sitting at a whopping four and
Heather Powell: a half stars. Phil Ray's at a two and a half. Matt Wood
Heather Powell: is at three. The Hump is at two and a half.
Heather Powell: Dave Bailey is at three.
Heather Powell: I. Okay, full disclosure. Never saw the original.
Heather Powell: Haven't Read the book. So I think that greatly changes
Heather Powell: how you view this film.
Heather Powell: I thought it was a nice, cute little horror movie. And I
Heather Powell: say cute because, you know, even though it is quite
Heather Powell: dark, it is a little sped up.
Heather Powell: Like everything goes from bad to worse in a matter of like what feels like
Heather Powell: 20 minutes. So I thought that it was,
Heather Powell: it was packaged pretty nicely and it put throughout
Heather Powell: a story pretty quickly. I didn't have a lot of beefs about like
Heather Powell: oh, but this doesn't make sense now. But I think it's because I haven't seen
Heather Powell: the original nor have I read the book. And I just went with it and
Heather Powell: was like, ah, horror movie logic. Sure. It's sitting at only 113
Heather Powell: minutes which is considerably shorter than I believe the miniseries
Heather Powell: was. Scott: Yeah, I think that, yeah, I think that movie was two
Scott: and a half hours, three hours somewhere around there. Heather Powell: So.
Heather Powell: And obviously shorter than the book. So I probably sit around
Heather Powell: a three star too. I enjoyed it when characters
Heather Powell: were killed off in this. I was sad. There were certain people that
Heather Powell: I was like, ah fuck, you know, I was really rooting for them. So I
Heather Powell: was invested. But I think someone like Scott who has read
Heather Powell: the book might have a different perspective. So.
Scott: Yeah, so right off the bat I will say Tobe
Scott: Hooper's adaptation of the book from the 70s,
Scott: it gets a lot of love. A lot of people love it and
Scott: I see a lot of people saying, you know, it's comparing this
Scott: movie to that. I'm not comparing that movie to that because one,
Scott: that movie back then was fine. It was not as great as everybody
Scott: makes it out to be. It's a little too slow.
Scott: But I am gonna like I compare it
Scott: to, you know, the adaptation of the book.
Scott: And when you do a Stephen King adaptation,
Scott: character development is extremely
Scott: important because that is what Stephen King is mainly
Scott: known for. His descriptive details and
Scott: his building of characters before the horror truly
Scott: sets in. And with this movie it
Scott: just felt like a clip show of the
Scott: highlights of what happens in the book without giving us
Scott: the meat and potatoes of the building of the character.
Scott: So it, it goes from 0 to 100 within the
Scott: first half hour where it needed this,
Scott: this movie. I think if would have been good if it had about a two
Scott: hour runtime, like okay, an extra half hour
Scott: to 45 minutes to kind of give us a little more build up to
Scott: the characters and what happens in the town because yeah,
Scott: you just don't get enough of that. And it's a shame because I love the
Scott: look of the vampires. I Barlow looked
Scott: Creepy as hell. Like the character, the acting I
Scott: thought was decent. There were a lot of characters that I thought kind of
Scott: just had that look of what I had in my head,
Scott: but I just didn't care for.
Scott: And I like, it didn't affect me when any of them died or
Scott: got changed or anything happened. I just, I had no connection to them,
Scott: like, besides knowing them from the book. And I'm just like, you didn't do these
Scott: characters justice. There was so much more to them.
Scott: And what I read, it sounds like about
Scott: an hour of this movie got cut out. Like got chopped a bit.
Heather Powell: Yeah, yeah. That doesn't help. Scott: Yeah. Like for a quick,
Scott: easy, just fast paced vampire movie, sure it's entertaining,
Scott: but when it's based off of one of my
Scott: top five Stephen King novels and it's
Scott: not that great. So I had to lower my score. I think it's down to
Scott: like, I think I gave it a three out of five, but just because it
Scott: was quick and easy and entertaining. But man, I was disappointed.
Scott: I wanted so much more from this. Heather Powell: That's fair. For me,
Heather Powell: it's probably three to three and a half because again, I didn't have the context.
Heather Powell: I know about the famous scene about the vampire outside the window.
Heather Powell: Yeah. And they did it. And I thought they did it with enough change that
Heather Powell: they still played tribute to the OG Without,
Heather Powell: I don't know, completely copying it. And I did the
Heather Powell: main protagonists, the two main protagonists, the kid and the
Heather Powell: adult. I thought they were great. Yeah.
Heather Powell: Again, I think you're right, Scott. I think whether you are a big
Heather Powell: fan of this book or whether you've seen the OG movie
Heather Powell: will affect this experience. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: You know what I mean?
Heather Powell: But I do give it credit for probably being a better film than Children of
Heather Powell: the Corn that came out whenever that
Heather Powell: was last year or the year before. Scott: Oh, man, I kind of enjoyed that one.
Heather Powell: Did you think that was better than this one?
Scott: No, I think it's. I think it's on par. Heather Powell: Okay, that's fair. That's fair.
Heather Powell: Yeah. So it's available on HBO,
Heather Powell: Max and Crave in Canada. So I would say watch it
Heather Powell: if you have any of those streaming services. I think it's totally worth it.
Heather Powell: You know, at least get your own opinion about it. If you're, you know,
Heather Powell: not a big fan of the previous, you know, the book or the, or the
Heather Powell: movie, maybe you'll like this or the miniseries. If you're a big fan of both,
Heather Powell: maybe you want to watch this and then judge the of it. That's fine too.
Heather Powell: Whatever you want to do. Right. And the next one,
Heather Powell: do you want to bring this in? Because I know you're a big fan.
Heather Powell: Oh, no, it's. Yeah. You saw this one, right? Scott: Yep. I'll bring it in because
Scott: you brought the last one. Heather Powell: Sounds good. Scott: The next one we're going to talk about
Scott: is VHS Beyond. It's got 114
Scott: minute runtime. The tagline is no safe space.
Scott: The infinite playground of forbidden worlds and dangerous life
Scott: forms offered by the sci fi horror genre will lead to
Scott: the biggest, maddest, bloodiest VHS ever.
Scott: Yeah, I believe this is part 7 of
Scott: the VHS series, which, you know, not even gonna mention
Scott: my thoughts right now, but I just say keep at it, keep bringing
Scott: us VHS sequels. Because anthology films
Scott: are always fun to watch and I always have at least one or two
Scott: good stories out of each. At least one or two good stories
Scott: out of each VHS movie. So like I am always here
Scott: for VHS sequels and I will always watch them.
Scott: This one, however, was not the biggest fan of overall.
Scott: For one, they kind of took the found footage aspect
Scott: and threw it out the window for certain stories and
Scott: that drove me nuts. I think it was the second story
Scott: with the Bollywood. Heather Powell: Yeah,
Heather Powell: it was. That one was a little weird. Scott: Yeah. And they like, like. Because all
Scott: of a sudden there's a, like it's not found footage but it's a camera up
Scott: in the air looking down at like big old set piece and it's
Scott: like that's, that's not found footage. And there's a
Scott: couple other spots where I'm going, yeah, that's not found footage either.
Scott: But all in all, I think. See there is. I'm trying
Scott: to count how many stories. One, two, three. I think there
Scott: was a total of five or six stories and I
Scott: enjoyed the first one and the final
Scott: one. Heather Powell: The first one, you didn't like the animal based one.
Scott: That was just too my favorite. I had a feeling
Scott: it would. I mean, but you also love Tusk too, which is. Heather Powell: Oh my God,
Heather Powell: Tusk. Scott: Which is.
Scott: Yeah, yeah, it was directed by what's his name?
Scott: Justin Long. Heather Powell: Oh, this. Oh, that makes so much. What is with Justin
Heather Powell: Long and Weird Animal. But yeah,
Heather Powell: I love, I love. This is my second favorite
Heather Powell: vhs. Scott: Wow. Heather Powell: Yeah,
Heather Powell: I'm just not even going to bullshit it. I think this is close to on
Heather Powell: par with the first or the second. So VHS2 is
Heather Powell: my favorite. This is a very, very close second. That's how
Heather Powell: much I enjoyed these stories. Scott: Wow.
Heather Powell: Huge. I liked all of them,
Heather Powell: which is the Bollywood one. I agree. I do think
Heather Powell: the theme was weird. So I watched this with Mark and Mark's
Heather Powell: criticism of this was he's like. The theme didn't seem like.
Heather Powell: He's like. I thought it was like kind of alien spaceship.
Heather Powell: And then he's like, well, this, the animal one didn't make the most sense to
Heather Powell: kind of throw into that. Like, he's like, that one doesn't really feel like it
Heather Powell: flowed, but he thought it was creepy. We both
Heather Powell: thought the story was good, I think. And Mark,
Heather Powell: you can correct me later when you're listening to this. I think the spaceship
Heather Powell: one he really dug. Scott: Yeah, that one was written
Scott: by Mike Flanagan too. Heather Powell: Oh, nice.
Heather Powell: So I liked all of them quite a bit.
Heather Powell: I thought that this, to me is one of the better. VHS is better
Heather Powell: than last year's, better than the year before. I really,
Heather Powell: really enjoyed it. And I do think I am the minority,
Heather Powell: I will say that, because when I look at the reviews Tim
Heather Powell: gave us, gave it two and a half stars. Matt Wood gave it three and
Heather Powell: a half stars. But I think that's all Matt knows how to give because
Heather Powell: I think every single movie we've talked about, Matt's giving it three and a half
Heather Powell: stars. Scott: I think he's like you and just chooses Joy.
Heather Powell: Yeah. You know what he does? Because he's out
Heather Powell: at the pub living his best fucking life, drinking, drinking Bevies
Heather Powell: being like, you know what, Heather? You know, cunts be cunts. And we
Heather Powell: just need to sit there and enjoy the movies. So I.
Heather Powell: I don't know. This to me is a 5 out of 5. I thought
Heather Powell: VHS and beyond is exceptional.
Heather Powell: I don't think Mark would have given it a five out of five. I'm going
Heather Powell: to go that he probably would give it like a 4 out of 5.
Heather Powell: But I know he enjoyed the stories and he doesn't see a
Heather Powell: lot of New Age horror. So this was like one of the newer anthologies
Heather Powell: that he's seen and I was telling him that there's like a series
Heather Powell: of these so I might get him to watch them. But I obviously I'm going
Heather Powell: to pick the ones I like, so I'm the ones I don't.
Heather Powell: But yeah. So a little bit of different opinions here, Scott. I really
Heather Powell: loved it. This will probably be my anthology of the year, possibly in my top
Heather Powell: 10. And I don't think you're gonna have it anywhere near your top
Heather Powell: 10 this year. Scott: No, unfortunately not. Like I
Scott: said, I didn't hate my time with it. But of all,
Scott: I think this lands at number four or five
Scott: for me in the VHS Franchise. Heather Powell: Okay. Scott: Like, there's,
Scott: like, none of the stories were horrible besides the one
Scott: that everybody seems to love. And I hated this one.
Heather Powell: Which one? Scott: It is the skydiving one. Heather Powell: Oh,
Heather Powell: I liked that. Why did you hate it? Scott: I hated the very
Scott: first few minutes because all the characters were so goddamn
Scott: annoying and just. Heather Powell: Okay. Scott: And then
Scott: when they get. When they actually land, like, I thought the idea was cool,
Scott: but then when they land and you see the reveal of the creature,
Scott: it looked like PlayStation 1 fucking graphics and just looked
Scott: awful. I hated the design of that thing. It was
Scott: so bad. Heather Powell: Yeah, I agree.
Heather Powell: But I thought the. I thought it played on one of
Heather Powell: people's biggest fears of why they don't want to go skydiving. Scott: Oh,
Scott: yeah. Like I say, I like the concept. It just was. The execution was
Scott: not for me. Heather Powell: And I felt like an
Heather Powell: added. Like, okay, this thing happened skydiving, now this other thing is gonna
Heather Powell: happen. Like, it was very much like, how much more worse
Heather Powell: could it get kind of thing. Right? Yeah, yeah.
Heather Powell: I don't know. So mixed emotions on it. But if you like anthologies,
Heather Powell: like, let's be real, VHS is kind of the go to
Heather Powell: right now for anthologies and horrors. So whether you love it or hate
Heather Powell: it, you'll probably like some of them. We're looking
Heather Powell: at this being available on all the shutties, so whatever kind of
Heather Powell: form of shutter you have, as well as AMC plus and
Heather Powell: AMC plus Amazon. So if you're sorry, go ahead.
Scott: I was gonna say. Yeah, I will still recommend it, too. It's. I gave
Scott: it a three out of five. Like, it's still enjoyable and will probably
Scott: be the best anthology movie I see. But that's
Scott: not saying much this year. Heather Powell: I think this may be in my top 10 this
Heather Powell: year, so it will be really interesting because that will be the first time a
Heather Powell: VHS since we. Because I. Obviously, when we VHS2 came out, we weren't doing
Heather Powell: a podcast. I wasn't ranking movies. So this may be the
Heather Powell: first time that an anthology has made it to my top 10.
Scott: Interesting. Heather Powell: Yes. You know, you got to keep it spicy here
Heather Powell: on Friday Nightmares as a premium podcast.
Heather Powell: Clearly. So, speaking of spicy,
Heather Powell: Scott, how do you feel about Rosemary's Baby? Scott: It's a
Scott: classic. Heather Powell: Would you say you're a fan? Scott: Yeah, I've only watched it
Scott: once, all the way through, and that was just a few years ago for the
Scott: first time. And I really loved the story and thought the acting and
Scott: everything was absolutely amazing. I see why it's considered a classic.
Heather Powell: How do you feel about a prequel? Scott: I'm all for it. Heather Powell: Wow. Have you
Heather Powell: seen it? Scott: I did. Heather Powell: Oh,
Heather Powell: and the plot thickens. We're talking about
Heather Powell: apartment 7A 2024.
Heather Powell: Rosemary was not the first as the tagline, a struggling young dancer finds herself
Heather Powell: drawn in by dark forces. When a particular.
Heather Powell: Is that what it is? I feel like I'm not reading that right.
Scott: Peculiar. Heather Powell: Peculiar. Thank you. Well connected older
Heather Powell: couple promises her a shot at fame.
Heather Powell: This movie is sitting at a runtime of 106
Heather Powell: minutes. Matt woods gave this four stars.
Heather Powell: Excellent. He figured out how to give more than three and a half. He's like,
Heather Powell: how do you do that on letterbox? And you gave it
Heather Powell: three and a half. I thought this was a really good
Heather Powell: movie. I like it more than Rosemary's Baby. Now that being said,
Heather Powell: Rosemary's Baby came out in. Was it the 60s, late 60s?
Scott: I think it was late 60s, early 70s.
Scott: Don't quote me on that. But yeah, it. Heather Powell: So it was filmed
Heather Powell: for that time period. And already some of the filming, some of the
Heather Powell: films from that time period. I find Drake out for me. I even find the
Heather Powell: original Psycho drags out a little bit for me. Great films,
Heather Powell: they just drag out personally for me. So I will say if you
Heather Powell: are like me and you enjoyed the concept of Rosemary's Baby, thought it
Heather Powell: was a great movie but maybe was just a tad too long because of the
Heather Powell: filming style. This is going to be a movie for you. I found
Heather Powell: this very easy to get into. I found the main character very easy
Heather Powell: to follow in Route 4. I thought the couple did a great job of being
Heather Powell: welcoming and creepy, which is really fucking hard to do.
Heather Powell: To come across as like the really nice people that are real fucked up
Heather Powell: and at the ending, wow. Chef's kiss. That is how
Heather Powell: you win a horror movie. I, if I could have given this
Heather Powell: horror movie a standing ovation, I would have for that last last five minutes.
Heather Powell: I re watched it because I liked it so much. I thought it was so,
Heather Powell: ah, Chef's kiss. Scott: Yeah, the way they tied it in. Heather Powell: Oh,
Heather Powell: amazing, amazing. And this main character,
Heather Powell: an excellent protagonist. I. Nothing but praise.
Heather Powell: Great, great film. Scott, what are your thoughts? Oh, never mind.
Heather Powell: Scott doesn't have any thoughts. He's chewing, he's getting ready.
Heather Powell: He's coming with those thoughts. Scott: Okay, let's munching on some almonds there.
Heather Powell: Fair enough. Scott: But yeah, I, Erica and I watched this
Scott: around the. Yeah, I think it was when I was on my vacation because we
Scott: were just like hammering out 2024s that week. And yeah,
Scott: I really enjoyed this one. I thought the acting was really well done.
Scott: I thought it tied in wonderfully with the OG
Scott: And I did. I did think it was a little
Scott: bit just kind of eh. At some points with the story.
Scott: There were parts where I just didn't feel as connected,
Scott: I guess you would say. I'm trying to find the right word here, but like,
Scott: it didn't grab me like Rosemary's Baby did. But at the same
Scott: time for a prequel that I was going and going,
Scott: oh God, this is gonna be terrible. I came out surprised as
Scott: hell. Heather Powell: Good. Scott: I was really impressed with how well this
Scott: movie was like a very solid prequel to tie
Scott: into Rosemary's Baby. I. I'm struggling to remember
Scott: some bits of it because it was early on, like shortly after
Scott: I we recorded last time is when I watched this. So it
Scott: was a while ago. But I do really like it. The scenes that
Scott: stuck with me have stuck with me. And yeah, like you said,
Scott: the couple being extra creepy and
Scott: I gotta say, I can't remember her name, but the
Scott: woman that plays the lady of the couple does
Scott: such a great impersonation of
Scott: the lady from the original. Heather Powell: Yes. Scott: The voice and
Scott: everything, she nails it. Heather Powell: And that's hard to do right.
Heather Powell: When you are basically going back in time and
Heather Powell: trying to kind of bring back a character that's no
Heather Powell: longer here. I think that that says
Heather Powell: a lot, actually. It reminds me that I watched Alien Romulus,
Heather Powell: which is separate than this, and also did something similar that you talked about
Heather Powell: as well, only that was done with AI. Right.
Heather Powell: So this is a little bit more authentic, I think when you do it this
Heather Powell: way. Yeah. I think this is a must watch,
Heather Powell: honestly, for this year. I think you'll be impressed by it.
Heather Powell: I think it's a good little story. Whatever your feelings may
Heather Powell: be on on Rosemary's Baby, I think this movie is quite
Heather Powell: enjoyable. If you have Paramount, if you pay for that
Heather Powell: subscription, it's included. So I would definitely recommend it.
Heather Powell: If not, it's available for rent on Apple tv, Google Play, Amazon and
Heather Powell: Microsoft Store. I think it's whatever the rental is.
Heather Powell: If the theme of Rosemary's Baby is something
Heather Powell: that you would dig, a modernized version of that story
Heather Powell: is I think the best non spoiler review I can get.
Scott: Yes. Heather Powell: Right. If you like that, then you'll probably dig
Heather Powell: this. And I would recommend it. And definitely if you got Paramount plus,
Heather Powell: like you might as well. Scott: Yeah, I was gonna say. And I'm also there
Scott: recommended it because. Yeah, it's a three and a half on letterbox. So it's a
Scott: seven out of 10, 7.5 out of 10 for me. Like it may
Scott: be mentioned in my awards. We shall see.
Heather Powell: Awesome, awesome, awesome. Did you watch this next one?
Scott: No, I did not. And I was gonna say I am gonna step away for
Scott: a quick second run to the bathroom. So let you talk about it if you
Scott: want. Heather Powell: Oh, it's perfect. I can talk. That's fine. Finally, my time
Heather Powell: to shine. Scott: Your time to shine. Heather Powell: Heather, get the fuck out of your. Scott.
Heather Powell: No one wants to hear about you anyway. All right, so this is. This is
Heather Powell: Heather's show now. So Matt, if you're listening, you know, maybe you
Heather Powell: could come and host with me sometime since Scott doesn't actually want to be here
Heather Powell: anyway. It's what's inside.
Heather Powell: Just like Matt. It's what's inside of me, of how I feel for you.
Heather Powell: So this is a 2024 film as well.
Heather Powell: This is actually on Netflix. So if anyone has
Heather Powell: a subscription to Netflix, this is an opportunity for them to
Heather Powell: check this one out. Nobody is leaving the same
Heather Powell: as they came, a pre wedding party descends into an
Heather Powell: existential nightmare when an estranged friend shows up
Heather Powell: with a mysterious suitcase. So in this film
Heather Powell: we have a group of friends that are getting together and they play
Heather Powell: a interesting game that uses technology
Heather Powell: as a base and it comes across
Heather Powell: on Netflix as a thriller, drama,
Heather Powell: mystery or something like that. Science fiction. You know,
Heather Powell: we all know it's a horror film. We all do. It's just, you know,
Heather Powell: we refuse to call certain things horror films, but this definitely is a
Heather Powell: horror based film. The movie is 103
Heather Powell: minutes in length. What I will give it credit for here is that it does
Heather Powell: not overstay its welcome. It keeps it to a pretty decent
Heather Powell: runtime. Looking at the rankings,
Heather Powell: Matt Wood has given it three stars, Dave Bailey
Heather Powell: has given it three stars, and Matt Wood's review.
Heather Powell: Let's see here. What can I read here that's not a spoiler?
Heather Powell: I liked the concept of this fucked up and trippy. However,
Heather Powell: I don't think it went dark enough. Oh, I thought it was pretty dark,
Heather Powell: Mac. Matt. They really could have done some fucked up stuff and
Heather Powell: also had the potential to be funny if they went down that route. I think
Heather Powell: they thought they were being funny and
Heather Powell: I do think some things were dark. But I get what you're saying. It could
Heather Powell: have been a little bit more darker. But I think for a watch on
Heather Powell: Netflix, it's actually pretty good. I will
Heather Powell: say I've watched a lot of stuff on Netflix recently and
Heather Powell: I. And. And Netflix is starting to bring it a little bit more.
Heather Powell: And even though they kind of categorize this as a science fiction thriller
Heather Powell: drama. It is definitely a horror movie. So if you enjoy
Heather Powell: a little bit of science fiction, a little bit of
Heather Powell: friends in peril, you know, inter relationship
Heather Powell: kind of movie, this is a movie for you and it is available on
Heather Powell: all of the Netflix services. So even Netflix Basic it
Heather Powell: is available there. And Scott is back with us. Welcome back,
Heather Powell: Scott. Scott: Thanks. Heather Powell: And it's good because I haven't seen this next
Heather Powell: one and that's you. Scott: Yep. That's kind of why I was like, I'll jump in
Scott: real quick here. So yeah, Erica and I watched this one.
Scott: It was a Tubi movie called Hashtag Missing
Scott: Couple. It's got a 93 minute runtime.
Scott: I will preface this by saying it's not a to be original. We just found
Scott: it on Tubi. But at Austin and Jana
Scott: were a real Hashtag Hashtag Van Life couple on
Scott: an adventure to renovate an abandoned farm in the middle of nowhere, Miss Mississippi.
Scott: Cameras blazing, they chronicled their project on social media.
Scott: But the farm was full of disturbing surprises, especially at night.
Scott: Someone or something was stalking the couple. Please DM at
Scott: Found Persons report with info about their disappearance.
Scott: So yeah, this is your typical found
Scott: footage social media like influencers
Scott: type movie where but like typical, as I should
Scott: say, low budget found footage type. It's about,
Scott: yep, this couple that just gets this house and starts renovating it.
Scott: And you're watching it through the camera lens of
Scott: a friend who's trying to find them because they just up and disappeared.
Scott: So he's showing clips on his YouTube channel of what
Scott: they had uploaded and he's trying to get to the bottom of what
Scott: happened to them. So eventually he goes
Scott: to the farm himself to kind of do some investigations
Scott: and it's nothing to really
Scott: write home about. Like I was just like, eh, this is just kind of just
Scott: been mediocre. Yeah, been there, done that. But then there is a
Scott: twist that happens that I did not see coming that made
Scott: it stand out a little more than the rest. I will
Scott: say that to where it elevated it from being
Scott: very freaking forgettable to at least somewhat
Scott: memorable. It's not, not great by any means,
Scott: but it was an easy watch and I don't have a lot to
Scott: say about it because like I said, been there, done that. But this twist kind
Scott: of caught me off guard. So I, I want to give it props for that
Scott: and want to talk about it there. But that's basically all there is really
Scott: to it. Not a whole lot really. Only one other person
Scott: has watched it and I'm not sure who this is, but he
Scott: gave it a 3 out of 5. And I'm also sitting at like
Scott: a 3 out of 5. Like it's 5.5, 6 out of 10 type deal
Scott: where it's not just. It's not heaped in the forgettable pile.
Heather Powell: That's good to know. And it's on Tubi for free. So if you really like
Heather Powell: found footage and this kind of stuff, it's available there, right?
Scott: Yeah, exactly. And you know. Yeah, it's available. Sorry, I close the app. It's available
Scott: on Apple TV, Google Play, Tubi, Fandango and YouTube.
Heather Powell: Nice. Hey, you know, there's. That's good to have to
Heather Powell: be. We're getting a variety here. We've had to be. We just had a Netflix.
Heather Powell: We've had some shutter. We've had theater. What is it?
Heather Powell: Theater. And then also like Video on Demand. Scott: Yep, Paramount.
Heather Powell: Paramount. And we're going to go back to Netflix. So in 2020,
Heather Powell: a film took us by storm at the beginning of the pandemic
Heather Powell: and was really kind of scary how it came out at a time when we
Heather Powell: were in a toilet paper shortage. And yeah, there was issues with
Heather Powell: getting supplies. It was a little too close to home. Well,
Heather Powell: they came back in the ring for another swing. And I introduced you, ladies and
Heather Powell: gentlemen, the Platform too. After a mysterious
Heather Powell: leader imposes his law in a brutal system of vertical
Heather Powell: cells and new arrival battles against a dubious food distribution
Heather Powell: method. This film. Well, if you've seen the original
Heather Powell: Platform, you know what's happening.
Heather Powell: We're not reinventing the wheel when it comes to
Heather Powell: what is happening happening. But this film again,
Heather Powell: looks at social structure, the needs, the wants
Heather Powell: and the have nots. I'll be very honest,
Heather Powell: I don't know why they did the sequel. I don't think it was bad that
Heather Powell: they did this because it's explaining things
Heather Powell: a little bit more and really delving into
Heather Powell: human nature and what happens when you
Heather Powell: put humans in a restrictive system where they need to work together
Heather Powell: for survival, but also pit them against each other.
Heather Powell: And I will give a lot of credit to this film
Heather Powell: for that. It's filmed well, it's acted well.
Heather Powell: It's a very good message. I just
Heather Powell: don't know if the Platform was a movie that needed a sequel.
Scott: Yeah, that's. Heather Powell: You know what I mean? I.
Scott: Unless you're going to do something completely drastically
Scott: different, I don't see the point. Heather Powell: You know,
Heather Powell: And I would have not mind. Like, I would
Heather Powell: have probably been more interested in something that showed the creation
Heather Powell: of the platform. Form, like, who thought of it and why?
Heather Powell: And. And again, though, this is an exceptional
Heather Powell: film. I think if you saw the first one and you were passionate about
Heather Powell: it, definitely watch this. I do
Heather Powell: really applaud the exploration that they went into here about
Heather Powell: social structures,
Heather Powell: what you will do to meet your own needs over others. Like, this is a
Heather Powell: awesome film. Like, I will be very clear here. This is a really, really good
Heather Powell: film. But even for me, who love social
Heather Powell: political issues, you really gotta be into this shit to watch the platform
Heather Powell: too. Like, you're gonna get more of the platform,
Heather Powell: but supersized. So you really gotta like that theme
Heather Powell: to dig this. Scott: Gotcha. Heather Powell: Like Tim Davis. Don't bother. You're probably
Heather Powell: not gonna like this. There's other people out there that I'd be like, don't,
Heather Powell: Daniel. You may like it. You may enjoy it a little bit more.
Scott: Yeah, Luffy already watched it. Heather Powell: And did he like it? Scott: I think he gave it
Scott: like a seven or so. He's like, it just felt like it was pointless,
Scott: but he's like, it was decent. Heather Powell: Yeah, that's exactly the best way to put it.
Heather Powell: Right. So I think that that is the best way to look at this.
Heather Powell: It is on Netflix. So, you know, if you really did enjoy
Heather Powell: the first one and you want to see what they're doing. Absolutely. Check it out.
Heather Powell: And you have Netflix. If you don't, I wouldn't recommend just getting Netflix
Heather Powell: for this movie. Right. Like, and again,
Heather Powell: only. Only watch it if you were really into
Heather Powell: the. Like, you gotta have really liked the first one to
Heather Powell: get into this one. And I will. I will leave it at that.
Heather Powell: The next one is. Have you seen this next one?
Scott: No, I have not. But I know. Good joke to go with that.
Scott: Sitting up in my room.
Heather Powell: Yeah. Because good old Brandy's in this one. And I believe
Heather Powell: this is an A24 film. I think. I think it was.
Heather Powell: I could be wrong. I don't know. Maybe it was an IFC midnight. They're all
Heather Powell: the same, the two of them. There are two companies that if they made a
Heather Powell: baby, it would be the most artistic, pretentious shit ever that
Heather Powell: would come out. Honestly, I think it
Heather Powell: was an A24 though. The front room, all hell moves in.
Heather Powell: Everything goes to hell for newly pregnant Belinda after her mother
Heather Powell: in law moves in as a diabolical guest tries to get her
Heather Powell: claws onto the child. Belinda must draw the line somewhere.
Heather Powell: This is a really entertaining film.
Heather Powell: I will be honest. I didn't know what to expect from Brandy.
Heather Powell: I didn't know what to expect from the Overview of
Heather Powell: this film. I know Phil Ray gave it a one star, which I think is
Heather Powell: hilarious. Tim Davis gave it
Heather Powell: three and a half. I think that's very fair.
Heather Powell: I don't think it does anything overly new. But I do
Heather Powell: think the mother in law in this is hilarious. I'm sure she's
Heather Powell: not supposed to be hilarious. Well, at times I'm sure she's supposed to be hilarious.
Heather Powell: But the actress that played her. So let's see who's not Brandy.
Heather Powell: I'm gonna assume it's Catherine Hunter.
Heather Powell: Fucking phenomenal. Like great performance.
Heather Powell: Probably like, like we're talking anti.
Heather Powell: My God, antagonist of the year award nominee,
Heather Powell: right? We're. That's how good this, this mother in law is.
Heather Powell: She is definitely a villain you love to hate.
Heather Powell: She is fucking horrible to Brandy.
Heather Powell: Super racist, super annoying.
Heather Powell: Like, but so like old person racist. You know what I mean? Where they're like,
Heather Powell: I don't give a shit, right? I'm like,
Heather Powell: oh, looks like family gatherings. You know what I mean? Like, it's just so funny.
Heather Powell: She just doesn't care. And Brandy just really
Heather Powell: does stand her ground and doesn't put up with bullshit like Brandy can.
Heather Powell: So I. The guy that sits this, the husband is honestly interchangeable.
Heather Powell: Take him and take him out. He doesn't matter. It's her and
Heather Powell: Catherine. So Brandy and Catherine carry this film.
Heather Powell: I would say watch it. I think this is a must watch for the year.
Heather Powell: I do think that when it comes to really getting behind someone, you can
Heather Powell: get behind Brandy in this role and I think you can. Or Belinda and
Heather Powell: I think you can really hate the mother in law and I give the film
Heather Powell: credit for that. I don't think it's something that anyone's going to run around and
Heather Powell: be like, oh my number one film of the year. But it might be some
Heather Powell: people's top tens. Like it is entertaining and it does flow.
Heather Powell: Unless you're Phil Ray and it wasn't entertaining and it didn't flow and that's
Heather Powell: absolutely fine. But I found it good enough and
Heather Powell: entertaining enough. And it is available for rent on Apple
Heather Powell: tv, Google Play, Amazon Video, Microsoft Store,
Heather Powell: Cineplex. It's sitting at a 95 minute runtime. Again, I applaud a movie for
Heather Powell: knowing the length that it needs to be. And if you like the whole
Heather Powell: kind of family dynamic go wrong and over
Heather Powell: the top horrible. A mother in law that's played
Heather Powell: serious, you will like this. This is, this will
Heather Powell: be for you. If that does not sound like something that you would like,
Heather Powell: skip over it and watch something Else. But props to Brandi.
Heather Powell: She did a great job in this, in this film. Scott: All right.
Scott: Yeah, that is something I'll have to probably try watching at some point because
Scott: you and Tim both have given it praise now. So I'm curious.
Scott: And I think Luffy also ended up watching it because of Tim and give.
Scott: Well, so, yeah, the next one.
Scott: Oh boy. Heather Powell: Oh, yeah. Scott: The next movie I'm
Scott: going to talk about is Crack coon with
Scott: an 88 minute runtime when a synthetically
Scott: altered street drug is discarded in the woods by a drug dealer
Scott: during a car chase with police. The fallout proves nothing
Scott: less than horrific when an innocent raccoon eats it,
Scott: transforming it into a nightmarish killing machine straight from the
Scott: bowels of hell. With unsuspecting campers,
Scott: tourists, and residents of a mountain community all
Scott: in close proximity to the epicenter, no one is safe from the monsters
Scott: unrelenting rampage. So you know
Scott: me, I got, I, I, I am on a mission
Scott: to watch the drug fueled animal movies and
Scott: crack Coon. I loved, I've always loved the COVID of it. The COVID just
Scott: looks ridiculous and awesome. And I watched
Scott: a trailer and obviously the COVID is
Scott: not exactly what the movie is. And the raccoon
Scott: looked absolutely ridiculous. Like a hand puppet.
Scott: Damn near. And I was on board. I'm like, okay, this looks just stupid
Scott: enough that I'm gonna be on board. Oh yeah,
Scott: this was not good. The. Oh,
Scott: I try and even think how to begin for
Scott: one, it's one of those where obviously, yes, it's they're
Scott: purposely trying to make a so bad it's good movie.
Scott: And most of the time when you try to make a so bad
Scott: it's good movie, you fail at that aspect and make a so bad it's
Scott: bad movie because the actors are in
Scott: on the joke and just the, and the acting is,
Scott: is not good. The story drags
Scott: on for way too long. Lingering,
Scott: long lingering shots of
Scott: nude women. Like long, uncomfortable lingering shots.
Scott: Like, am I watching a porn like Skinemax
Scott: movie or what? What's going on here? Heather Powell: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Heather Powell: All around. Scott: This was just not good. I.
Heather Powell: How many times you said it's not good? You're like, it's not good,
Heather Powell: it's just not good. Scott: The only redeeming quality
Scott: is the raccoon puppet and
Scott: the really low budget gore. But this was just
Scott: so hard to sit through. I tried, but it was
Scott: so hard to sit through. Heather Powell: And that happens, right? And anyway,
Heather Powell: I we're watching this for Slumber Party Massacre because one of my co
Heather Powell: hosts is in and to support her.
Heather Powell: Right. And you know, it's. Scott: That's why I watched it too, is I want to
Scott: support her. Heather Powell: And you got to start somewhere. You know what I mean?
Heather Powell: These are pet projects, no different than our podcast. It's just people do having fun.
Heather Powell: So. Scott: Yeah, and I was gonna say, like, I'm not bashed. Like, I mean,
Scott: yeah, what, the acting wasn't good, but I also expect the acting not to
Scott: be good. So I'm not bashing it. Heather Powell: Oh, yeah, I don't think you're bashing it
Heather Powell: at all. I think you're just being real for people that watch it because you.
Heather Powell: It's like listening to us. Right? We're not. We're not a.
Heather Powell: You know, we're not Joe Bob Briggs. Right. So, like, if you want something
Heather Powell: that's really polished, there's. There's even like. Like the Rotten Roundtable
Heather Powell: is more polished than we are. Right. Like you just. There's certain podcasts,
Heather Powell: for example, that are more polished than others. Same with movies. This is a
Heather Powell: true indie film. Scott: Yep. There will be some
Scott: that love it and some that it just doesn't work. And I'm one
Scott: of those where it didn't work. Heather Powell: Yeah. Scott: And same with another person
Scott: that I expected to watch it and wasn't sure what he'd think,
Scott: but good old Rob Humphries from Slasher Radio, he rated
Scott: it, I think the exact same rating I gave it of two out of five.
Scott: Like, wow. And I know he's like me. He watches these silly,
Scott: low budget drug fueled animal movies and other like,
Scott: low budget stuff like this. And yeah, he wasn't. Didn't seem like he
Scott: was a fan either. Heather Powell: Well, you know what? They brought it and that's all
Heather Powell: one can do. And where did you find it? Was it on tv?
Scott: Actually, yeah. Though this one actually, no, it's. It's exclusive on
Scott: Screenbox or originally was exclusive on Screenbox
Scott: and is now on Amazon, Apple TV, Google Play and YouTube.
Heather Powell: Okay, well, there you go. If anyone wants to support some indie.
Heather Powell: This next one I actually thought was really funny.
Heather Powell: I didn't really get time with this movie. I thought it was really funny.
Heather Powell: Yes, this movie is called Mr.
Heather Powell: Crockett, and it's your kid's best friend and your worst nightmare.
Heather Powell: A single mother thinks she found the key to calming her.
Heather Powell: Calming her child. A VHS copy. So this takes place in the early 90s
Heather Powell: of a strange children's program named Mr.
Heather Powell: Crockett's World. However, a darker, bloodier secret waits
Heather Powell: to invade their home from the inside. The tape this is a hula film or
Heather Powell: hulu film, right? Scott: Huluween. Heather Powell: Hulaween.
Heather Powell: I know I'm gonna be real. I thought this was fucking jokes.
Heather Powell: The main. Okay, there's a couple of lines I just want to say. One was
Heather Powell: when one of the mothers get asked if maybe
Heather Powell: kids are better being raised by Mr. Crockett, our main character goes,
Heather Powell: fuck no. I thought that was really funny.
Heather Powell: I ain't no rating Rainbow I thought was really
Heather Powell: funny. I really enjoyed
Heather Powell: this film. It kind of felt like the opening scene
Heather Powell: kind of reminded me of something I would see in Nightmare on Elm street.
Heather Powell: Three or four with what happens at the dinner
Heather Powell: table. I don't know if you got that vibe at all. Like, I felt
Heather Powell: like this whole movie. Scott: Gave me Nightmare on Elm street vibes,
Scott: right? Heather Powell: But it was like it knew it was silly and
Heather Powell: it didn't take itself overly seriously.
Heather Powell: This is such a simple digestible film.
Heather Powell: You know, we're not, we're not talking about any award winning films here.
Heather Powell: It sits at an 88 minute runtime. Dave Bailey gave
Heather Powell: it three stars. You gave it three and a half. Tim gave it three and
Heather Powell: a half. Duncan gave it three and a half. I'm sitting at a three and
Heather Powell: a half too. It's just fun. Like it's just
Heather Powell: fun. It's predictable as you know, it's not
Heather Powell: hard to kind of put together, you know, even the twist,
Heather Powell: it's not. But is it fun? Scott: It's so fun. Heather Powell: I don't know. Scotty, what are
Heather Powell: your thoughts? Scott: I completely agree. This was just a all around
Scott: fun film. The guy that plays Mr. Crockett does such a
Scott: good job of being super friendly and happy, but also
Scott: creepy and menacing. But right. Like. And it's.
Scott: And he's got like the one liners like Freddy Krueger. He like,
Scott: he haunts you like Freddy Krueger does. Obviously not through the dreams, but like he
Scott: has that supernatural aspect to him. Like Freddy Krueger does.
Scott: And the kid, the main character's kid is so
Scott: over the top. Ish. Like I watch, right?
Scott: I was like, go ahead, Crockett, take that child. Take it away from
Scott: her. Because it's a little shithead kid.
Scott: But yeah, I just had fun with this. It was. It's obviously not blowing
Scott: my mind or like one of the greatest films ever made, but it
Scott: was perfect, easy, fun Halloween. Watch for the
Scott: Huluween stuff that they do. Heather Powell: And like, even though there is
Heather Powell: some swearing in this and some like deep, like some scary
Heather Powell: scenes, I think if you had a preteen or like maybe your kids are like
Heather Powell: Tim Davis's kids would probably love this movie. They would think, think it's hilarious.
Scott: Oh yeah. Heather Powell: You know, like depend know your kid. But I think this is
Heather Powell: a great introductory horror movie for kids. Like, I think it is.
Heather Powell: I don't know, it just, it just ticks all the boxes for a good
Heather Powell: time, fun watch. It may be in my rank for comedy
Heather Powell: horror comedy of the year because I did find it really fucking funny. I'm not
Heather Powell: gonna lie. The one liners that he said, I laughed out loud.
Heather Powell: I thought they were really funny. Like there's an opening scene at a dinner table
Heather Powell: with this like really piece of shit stepdad. And I found everything you would
Heather Powell: say it really funny. Like I just, I don't know in the reading,
Heather Powell: I'm not your, I'm not a reading rainbow or whatever it is.
Heather Powell: I thought it was really funny. Like, I just, I don't
Heather Powell: know, I, I, I don't. Whoever wrote that in the script basically
Heather Powell: winked at every single millennial. And I loved it.
Heather Powell: I loved it and I just, I don't know. This is just
Heather Powell: a fun good. It's available
Heather Powell: on Disney and Hulu and
Heather Powell: I don't know, man, sign up for a trial subscription if you haven't
Heather Powell: for one of those to watch it because it's definitely like,
Heather Powell: it's worth it. It's such a fun time, good time watch.
Scott: Yeah, it's like just something you can just turn your brain off and enjoy.
Heather Powell: Yeah, right. Like sometimes life doesn't need to be about serious
Heather Powell: horror movies. Like the one I'm going to talk about. Scott: Yeah. I haven't
Scott: watched this one, but yeah. Heather Powell: I don't understand why they
Heather Powell: named it this. It's weird.
Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: I feel dirty even saying
Heather Powell: the name, but the name is Daddy's head. Scott: Yeah.
Heather Powell: Family is everything. A boy and his stepmom fear for
Heather Powell: their safety after an eerie creature resembling the boy's
Heather Powell: recently deceased father visits them.
Heather Powell: This is a movie about family dynamics and grief.
Heather Powell: This is a metaphor movie for grief. So if
Heather Powell: you like metaphors that
Heather Powell: play out through creatures,
Heather Powell: you will like this movie.
Heather Powell: I thought that it was well done,
Heather Powell: well written, you know, it had a decent enough plot line,
Heather Powell: but this was a movie that I was like it, it's slow,
Heather Powell: it takes a lot to get going. There's a lot
Heather Powell: of like, you hate the decisions that some of the characters
Heather Powell: make, even though they do make sense. When you think about
Heather Powell: grief, they make a lot of sense. But this
Heather Powell: movie is a metaphor for grief. Just like when we had that Blood movie that
Heather Powell: came out last year. It was a metaphor for addiction. This is like rinse
Heather Powell: and repeat now. Metaphor for grief. So if you
Heather Powell: enjoy your metaphoric movies that are, you know, with a creature feature, I think you
Heather Powell: will dig this. Most people have given it a three star
Heather Powell: rating. Tim and Matt Wood have both given it three stars.
Heather Powell: I think that's fair. I probably
Heather Powell: sat around three stars too, because I do think it's a quality film.
Heather Powell: And again, I give Shutter Shudder credit because this is
Heather Powell: a unique horror film. Like, when you're on shudder,
Heather Powell: you're not a basic bitch horror fan. You know, Mr. Crockett is like
Heather Powell: fun times. Like, I would show that to my friends and they'd be like,
Heather Powell: ah, this is hilarious. And it's easy to watch something
Heather Powell: like this film does revile. Does require a lot more attention.
Heather Powell: It does kind of, you know, speak to the more
Heather Powell: the horror fans that want to dig a little deeper into their horror. And I
Heather Powell: give Shudder credit for that, like, completely. They always bring something that's
Heather Powell: different, something that's new, but it may not be for everyone. That being said,
Heather Powell: if you have the shutty, you may want to check it out if what I
Heather Powell: said sounds of interest to you. So it's on all the shutters and also including
Heather Powell: on all the AMC options. So if you have the subscription,
Heather Powell: check it out. Scott: Yeah, because this one, I watched the trailer and I'm going,
Scott: all right, the little tease of the creature looks really creepy.
Scott: Definitely a metaphor for grief. I can already see that from the trailer.
Scott: I'm not sure if this is one I'm going to bother with or not.
Scott: I haven't decided. Heather Powell: I don't think you need to rush out and watch it,
Heather Powell: Scott. I don't think it's going to be in your talk top 10. But if
Heather Powell: you get around to it, like, you got some. Maybe Some, huh? You don't have
Heather Powell: a lot of time. But if there's a night where the kids are
Heather Powell: out and they're at the grandparents or something and you guys want to just cram
Heather Powell: out, I would say it's quality, but I wouldn't say it's a
Heather Powell: must watch for this year. Scott: Right. All right. Well, speaking of must watches,
Scott: though. Heather Powell: Oh, yes, yes, yes.
Scott: The next one we're going to talk about is the substance
Scott: coming in with 141 minute runtime, if you
Scott: follow the instructions. What could go wrong?
Scott: A fading celebrity decides to use a black market drug,
Scott: a. Excuse me, a cell replicating substance
Scott: that temporarily creates a younger, better version of herself.
Scott: So, yeah, speaking of Metaphors. This is obviously like, a metaphor
Scott: for especially women in.
Scott: Definitely in, like, the fame industry,
Scott: whether it be, like, Hollywood influencer stuff
Scott: like that, about fear of aging and losing
Scott: in there. Like, basically losing the looks and.
Scott: Or your looks are fading as you age, at least through the eyes
Scott: of producers and stuff like that. And maybe
Scott: even seeing, like, seeing that through your own eyes.
Scott: As a woman, I can. Like, I'm not. Obviously not a woman, so I can't
Scott: attest, but I'm. That's kind of the message I got here.
Scott: But I have to say, for one, it was amazing
Scott: to see Demi Moore back because I don't remember the last
Scott: time I seen her in a movie. And she does such a
Scott: fucking fantastic job in this. Like, she just
Scott: nails her role. And, like, she's just such
Scott: a great actress. And I can't remember
Scott: her younger version's name.
Scott: Let me look that up real quick. Margaret Quaily.
Scott: She also does such a freaking amazing job.
Scott: But, yeah, this is basically just a what would you
Scott: do scenario to kind of keep your looks and this substance
Scott: creates a younger version of yourself that comes
Scott: out of your body but has to go back within seven days.
Scott: And it's a very interesting story
Scott: and very body horror. Heather Powell: Yeah.
Heather Powell: If you didn't know, you'd be like, a Cronenberg made this.
Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: Like, that would be your first assumption,
Heather Powell: right. Scott: Yeah. Because for one, this movie is. I will give a heads up.
Scott: This movie has not shy at all about nudity,
Scott: shows everything. And definitely
Scott: not shy about showing uncomfortable
Scott: aging and up
Scott: body horror by the end. Heather Powell: Yeah. Like, we're talking
Heather Powell: special effects makeup. This is. This movie is up for an academy,
Heather Powell: from what I understand. Scott: Oh, nice. Heather Powell: Demi Morris for
Heather Powell: her performance in this. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: Though they call it a fucking thriller because the Cowards
Heather Powell: can't call it a horror movie. Scott: Course.
Heather Powell: But. Or science fiction is probably what we'll call it. Which it is.
Heather Powell: But it's also a horror film, I. Scott: Think, especially that third act.
Heather Powell: This is a top five contender of the year. This will be people's number one.
Heather Powell: This will be people's number two. Number three, number four, number five. Like, it's.
Heather Powell: Or. Or I don't know, maybe people hate it, but this movie is fucking
Heather Powell: body horror done right. That's body horror. And talking about
Heather Powell: image and society done right. Scott: Yes, 100%.
Scott: And, like. Because I was talking with Tim Davis about it,
Scott: and, like, I was like, you love this movie. It was amazing. Love the
Scott: story and everything. And he had some plot holes, and he ended up doing a
Scott: spoiler review about it on his show, Dummies of Horror.
Scott: Plug, Plug, plug. But I. I see the plot
Scott: holes that he pointed out and I'm going, yeah, but I
Scott: think I was able to just easily overlook those because even he said he
Scott: was easily able to overlook them and just enjoy the movie.
Scott: I'm like, yeah, those were not plot holes. To me. Those were just like questions
Scott: I had. Heather Powell: Yeah. And I think also the concept is so
Heather Powell: out there. It's like infinity pool. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: You know what I mean? Like,
Heather Powell: there's certain things that you kind of go, this isn't really based
Heather Powell: in reality. It's taking a social concept and
Heather Powell: putting body horror to it. But it's the performances,
Heather Powell: it's everything. How it was directed, the makeup,
Heather Powell: the flow side characters that
Heather Powell: provided comic relief when needed. You know,
Heather Powell: I. Scott: This is. Heather Powell: This is a fucking solid film. This is how
Heather Powell: you make a good horror sci fi movie, hands down.
Heather Powell: Right. Can't believe a Cronenberg didn't make it. That's the only thing
Heather Powell: that I'm shocked about, to be honest with you. Scott: Who was the director?
Scott: Corally Fargiat. Heather Powell: Nice. Scott: Also a
Scott: woman director. Awesome. Oh, she did. Not my
Scott: favorite movie, but she did that movie Revenge.
Heather Powell: Oh, okay, cool. Scott: But yeah, this was definitely a
Scott: much better film than Revenge for me. Heather Powell: Yeah. No, I would agree.
Heather Powell: I think this is a movie like, I don't think Revenge was in a lot
Heather Powell: of people's top fives. This, you know. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: This will be on every horror list
Heather Powell: guaranteed at the end of the year. If not, like number 10, it will
Heather Powell: be somewhere. Scott: Oh, 100%. So, yeah. But yeah,
Scott: this one is a high, high, high recommend. Where is it available?
Scott: Let's see. Heather Powell: Probably available to rent everywhere. Right. Scott: It's Mubi,
Scott: which I have no idea what Mubi is. Apple tv,
Scott: Amazon Video, and Fandango at home. Heather Powell: There you
Heather Powell: go. So it's worth it. You know what? Premium. Premium movie
Heather Powell: from a premium podcast. Scott: Damn straight. Heather Powell: A not so
Heather Powell: premium movie. And I knew we were in bad for this because there was a
Heather Powell: lot of promotion of it. And that usually means
Heather Powell: it's not so great. Never let go.
Scott: Don't worry, I won't. Heather Powell: 2024.
Heather Powell: One touch is all it takes as an evil takes over the
Heather Powell: world beyond their front door step.
Heather Powell: One touch in this movie will bore you. The only protection for
Heather Powell: a mother and her twin sons is her. They're not twins. Twins,
Heather Powell: anyway. That's fine. Their house and their family.
Heather Powell: Sorry. The only protection for a mother and her twin sons is their
Heather Powell: house and their family protective bond. Alexandra Aja.
Scott: Directed this film, which had me excited and then
Scott: I started hearing people's thoughts. Heather Powell: Here's the
Heather Powell: thing. If you have never seen a horror movie before in your life,
Heather Powell: or you're a mediocre horror fan, you, like, maybe have watched a couple,
Heather Powell: you're probably going to enjoy this film and think the concept's really unique and different.
Heather Powell: If you watched. If you're listening to this podcast and
Heather Powell: you watched a fair amount of horror movies in your
Heather Powell: time, you're probably going to find the story quite repetitive.
Heather Powell: It deals with mental health, it deals with supernatural,
Heather Powell: it deals with family dynamics of isolation,
Heather Powell: horror. And it has a dog.
Heather Powell: And it has a dog and it's
Heather Powell: fine. Don't get me wrong, it's not a bad
Heather Powell: film. Like, I'm not going to sit here and rip it apart and say that
Heather Powell: it's bad or it's not good. It's actually paced
Heather Powell: well. The plot builds on each other. Well, the three main actors
Heather Powell: in this are good. The concept of
Heather Powell: what's happening around them is well done. It's just,
Heather Powell: you know, if you've watched a lot of horror movies in your
Heather Powell: time, and I mean, like, watch the variety, you're gonna
Heather Powell: find this average. You know, Tim gave it three stars,
Heather Powell: Rob the Hump gave it two and a half. I think
Heather Powell: that's fair. This is not a bad movie, but it's very much
Heather Powell: all been done before. Acting's good. It's at
Heather Powell: 101 minute runtime. If you go into this within
Heather Powell: the first five minutes, you're going to be like, I've seen this and I can
Heather Powell: probably predict how it will end, right? But if you
Heather Powell: have somebody maybe in your life who, you know, doesn't watch a lot of horror
Heather Powell: movies, it will be entertaining for you and for them to watch it together.
Heather Powell: That's my best suggestion. So if what I said
Heather Powell: sounds interesting to you, it is available on Apple TV, Google Play,
Heather Powell: Amazon Video, YouTube and Cineplex in
Heather Powell: Canada. If that is something you would like to do now, I cannot wait,
Heather Powell: Scott, because I have refused to watch this movie.
Heather Powell: Now, I did hear from my friends James and Helen of the Rested
Heather Powell: Ghoul Cafe in Gateshead, England,
Heather Powell: that they liked this and they liked the ending. So I
Heather Powell: am really excited they have not seen the original. Scott: Okay, that will.
Heather Powell: So I am excited to hear what you have to
Heather Powell: say. Scott: All right. So I decided
Scott: to watch the Speak no Evil American
Scott: remake of the, if I want to, if I remember correctly,
Scott: Danish film that was on Shutter.
Scott: So I'll read the synopsis real quick. When an American Family,
Scott: of course, is invited to spend the weekend at the idyllic
Scott: country estate of a charming British family. They're befriended on
Scott: vacation. What begins as a dream holiday soon warps into
Scott: a snarled psychological nightmare. And it's got
Scott: a runtime of an hour and ten minutes and stars James McAvoy
Scott: and Mackenzie Davis. And that's all the really,
Scott: truly recognizable faces. I think there are some others,
Scott: but those are the two main ones.
Scott: So. Yeah. Did you like the Danish
Scott: original film, Heather? Heather Powell: Oh, you know, I did. It was in my
Heather Powell: top 10. Scott: Then you are going to be annoyed
Scott: about this one. Heather Powell: I was annoyed
Heather Powell: by the trailer because,
Heather Powell: yeah, I was. Scott: Well, like, one thing about
Scott: Speak New Evil is it's the original is it's a
Scott: movie that frustrates and angers you
Scott: so much because you just. Heather Powell: Yes. Scott: The couple is just too nice
Scott: and they do not fight back like they should.
Scott: And it frustrates the hell out of you. In this one,
Scott: it's kind of the same thing with the whole, you know,
Scott: couple not wanting to really fight back and trying to be polite,
Scott: but. Heather Powell: But they're Americans and no one actually buys that they're
Heather Powell: American. Scott: But also they do fight back by the
Scott: end and you get a happy ending that just completely defeats
Scott: the purpose of what this movie was trying, what the original
Scott: film was trying to say. And a lot
Scott: of parts where it was just like that safe,
Scott: Americanized version of a movie.
Scott: And it just. It's a. If you are a fan of the original,
Scott: it's kind of a just roll your eyes, slap in the face. Like,
Scott: of course you would do this America. Of course
Scott: you would do this American remake of a foreign film that
Scott: actually has the balls to do something, you don't have the balls to
Scott: do it. The only really good thing I
Scott: will say about this movie is James McAvoy's performance
Scott: as the villain husband.
Scott: He is. Does such a good job. Heather Powell: Yeah, he looks
Heather Powell: like the highlight of this film. I'm not gonna lie, 100%.
Scott: Like, he does. Amazing. It's kind of worth it
Scott: to watch his performance, but it's gonna. Where the
Scott: original movie frustrated you because it made you
Scott: feel frustrated, the American version is going to frustrate you because
Scott: of being too chicken shit just like the couple
Scott: to pull the punches. Heather Powell: Okay, that's fair.
Heather Powell: So I guess if. If you've seen the original and you really
Heather Powell: liked it, maybe skip this one. Scott: Yeah, I'm not
Scott: going to like it, I don't think. Heather Powell: Okay. And if you haven't seen the original
Heather Powell: and you like Happy Endings, watch this one? Scott: Yeah.
Heather Powell: Okay. Where is it available? Is it still on
Heather Powell: demand? Scott: Let's see. I think, yeah, I think it's. It's still just on demand because
Scott: it was theatrical release originally. So, yeah,
Scott: it's available on Apple TV, Google Play,
Scott: Amazon Video, YouTube, and. Yep,
Scott: that's it. Heather Powell: You know, it's funny, I. When I was in England,
Heather Powell: I saw that it was playing there and I just was like. And usually,
Heather Powell: like, we would go see a horror movie. I was like, no, I can't
Heather Powell: justify paying money for this. Like, I can't.
Heather Powell: Like, I just, just. The original is just so good.
Heather Powell: I know already from the trailers. I'm mad.
Heather Powell: I. I don't wanna force myself.
Heather Powell: So I'm glad that you did the dirty work for me. Thank you. Scott: Yeah.
Scott: Because Erica was having a good time watching me because I'm just going, you chicken.
Scott: American remake. Not even gonna do this. Heather Powell: I know,
Heather Powell: right? Well, the first one's just so. The original is just so
Heather Powell: classic. But you know what? That happens, right? Like, you can't always.
Heather Powell: Sometimes. And that's fine if there's people out there that like it. Hey, man,
Heather Powell: rock on. We're not criticizing. Enjoy what you enjoy, do you?
Heather Powell: But it's just. For me, I. I think the original just has such
Heather Powell: character to it that Unless you're going to kind of follow
Heather Powell: that same plot line, I don't know, I. I have a hard time. But.
Scott: Yep. I think you would be frustrated as
Scott: hell. Heather Powell: Yeah, I. I know I would be, actually. So.
Heather Powell: Well, move on to another Netflix film.
Heather Powell: So Netflix is really like. I don't know, they just like had movie babies this
Heather Powell: month. They just decided to release everything. Scott: So this is.
Scott: They're like, hey, it's October. This is when we'll release our horror. Heather Powell: Yeah.
Heather Powell: Which is smart. Good job on you Netflix. So outside
Heather Powell: is a 2024 film. You can't keep out what's
Heather Powell: already inside. A family retreats to an isolated farm during a
Heather Powell: zombie outbreak. But years of painful secret takes their
Heather Powell: toll as they navigate a desolated world.
Heather Powell: All right. If you are looking for
Heather Powell: what real emotions come out during a zombie outbreak,
Heather Powell: this movie is for you. This movie is not so much a focus on
Heather Powell: the zombies, but more focus of family dynamics. I do think
Heather Powell: you should watch this. Great news. It's on Netflix so you can watch the
Heather Powell: dub version. And I don't think it's going to take away from it,
Heather Powell: but I do think the family dynamics of
Heather Powell: this movie makes it worth watching. Scott: Okay. Heather Powell: Tim Davis
Heather Powell: gave it a three stars. Not a lot of other People have watched it
Heather Powell: yet it's something different. Where, you know,
Heather Powell: the last movie I talked about, Never Let Go, is something we've seen
Heather Powell: before. This is zombies done differently and it's a different
Heather Powell: focus. It is an international film, but because it's on Netflix, it is
Heather Powell: dubbed. So if you're doing other things or you just prefer,
Heather Powell: you know, not reading subtitles, you can watch it dubbed.
Heather Powell: I really thoroughly enjoyed this. This might be my favorite
Heather Powell: film that's come out on Netflix this year. I think it's,
Heather Powell: you know, I don't think it'll be my top 10. But when I think about
Heather Powell: our awards and I think about something that
Heather Powell: is different, that stands out, you know, And Netflix has always been known for bringing
Heather Powell: really good international films and this is no
Heather Powell: exception. So I'm not going to give away too much on it.
Heather Powell: I will just say if you want to think about how a family that's
Heather Powell: already maybe having interrelationship issues with
Heather Powell: their marriage, their kids,
Heather Powell: secrets that come out that could conflict
Heather Powell: and choices that people make when they're in that situation,
Heather Powell: like you got no other option, is a really good.
Heather Powell: It's a really good examination of that. That. So if you have Netflix,
Heather Powell: I do recommend it and it's called Outside. Scott: All right,
Scott: good to know. Heather Powell: And then I'll do the next one. Right. Because you don't haven't
Heather Powell: seen that one, right? Scott: Yep. Heather Powell: So this one I kind of watched
Heather Powell: on a whim because I was just. I saw it and
Heather Powell: I do like the whole social media horror. And this
Heather Powell: is what this one is. I'm actually a hard time opening it on
Heather Powell: my laptop. Here we go. So C,
Heather Powell: this is a South Asian film.
Heather Powell: The tagline is you think you're in control of your life.
Heather Powell: Think again. Nelly and Joe are the perfect influencer couple.
Heather Powell: But when he cheats on her, she turns to an AI
Heather Powell: app to erase him from her life until it takes control. This is
Heather Powell: very light on the horror. It's definitely more
Heather Powell: of a thriller slash mystery, but it has that kind of
Heather Powell: social media horror to it. I enjoyed it.
Heather Powell: I thought the whole kind of play upon.
Heather Powell: If you could get an app that could relate erase somebody from
Heather Powell: your life, what would that look like? And it's not supernatural. Like this isn't
Heather Powell: a supernatural thing. It's more of a what happens
Heather Powell: when you try to erase a digital's footstep and it
Heather Powell: goes into your real life? It's not going to be
Heather Powell: for everybody. It's a lot of plot development and it's a
Heather Powell: very much South Asian based But I thought it was interesting.
Heather Powell: So if you like really a lot of relationship social media stuff,
Heather Powell: this will be for you. If not, skip it. It is very,
Heather Powell: very light on the horror. Probably more of a thriller slash mystery slash
Heather Powell: drama. But I thought the main young lady,
Heather Powell: Anna Pandey, was quite good. She had
Heather Powell: some really good lines that made me chuckle and some things that made
Heather Powell: me be like, fuck, that's a good point to think about. And her
Heather Powell: and what happens to her is probably pretty accurate of what would happen to someone
Heather Powell: in a situation like this. So I thought that that was well
Heather Powell: done. Again, not a must watch, but if you're looking for something a
Heather Powell: little different about social media and what apps
Heather Powell: can do, I would recommend this one here. Scott: All right,
Scott: good to know. I'll definitely have to look for this one then. So. Yeah,
Scott: I guess the next one you have not seen. Heather Powell: No, I'm actually just
Heather Powell: started it though. Scott: Oh, okay. So yeah. The movie
Scott: I'm going to talk about is azrael, directed by
Scott: El Katz. Run time of 86 minutes.
Scott: Many years after the Rapture, among the survivors,
Scott: some are driven to renounce their sin of speech. In a world where
Scott: no one speaks, a devout female hunts down
Scott: a young woman who has escaped her imprisonment.
Scott: Recaptured by its ruthless leaders, Azrael is due to be
Scott: sacrificed to pass classifying ancient evil deep within the surrounding
Scott: wilderness. So this is basically like a
Scott: quiet place in a way where they, they just. There is
Scott: no dialogue besides one person, which I believe has
Scott: like about a minute or two scene where he's speaking, but I think it's in
Scott: Spanish and there's no subtitles. But the star,
Scott: Samara Weaving and very interesting concept and
Scott: I will say that kind of frustrating in
Scott: a way with where the story goes, with the character
Scott: decisions made by Israel. But the performance
Scott: alone by Samara Weaving makes this extremely memorable
Scott: because for one, for not being able to speak,
Scott: you got to be very expressive
Scott: through looks and your eyes and whatnot.
Scott: And Samara Weaving does such a freaking awesome
Scott: job of showing what she's feeling, how she's
Scott: feeling and you know, what she's seeing through her eyes and
Scott: her facial expressions. And like it's incredible because like
Scott: she's always had that like the very iconic facial
Scott: expressions, like throughout the movies she's been in before. But this
Scott: like, you know, that's all you have to go off of is her facial expression
Scott: and she nails it and it's definitely got some
Scott: good gore, some good creepy moments.
Scott: There was something missing from it and I think it's more just like
Scott: the character decisions and a little more
Scott: explanation besides just what was done in the synopsis.
Heather Powell: That's fair. Scott: I. Exactly. That's all I can think of really. Because it still
Scott: stands out. Still. I thought it was really good. Like I gave it a
Scott: 7 out of 10 out of 5. Like, still definitely worth a watch.
Scott: Like I say, especially for Ezreal's performance or Samara Weaving's performance
Scott: alone. I believe Craig Wooten was the one that recommended it to
Scott: you and I on our page. Like he said, this was a really good one
Scott: that no one's talking about. Heather Powell: Yeah. Scott: And I think this will have
Scott: varying effects depending on who's watching it because, yeah, I'm seeing
Scott: everything from two stars to four. Heather Powell: Four and a half stars sounds
Heather Powell: about right. It sounds like very much a personal preference film. I'll have to see
Heather Powell: how I go. So far, what you've described is what I'm seeing. I'm about
Heather Powell: 20 minutes in. Scott: Okay, perfect. Yeah. This is available to
Scott: stream on amc, then is available to buy on Apple
Scott: tv, Google Play, Amazon Video and Fandango. Heather Powell: Awesome.
Scott: But I'd say it's definitely worth a watch. Heather Powell: Awesome. Well, it's good. Good that we
Heather Powell: got some good ones we're bringing out. So with the Halloween season,
Heather Powell: Hula came out with another one or carved
Heather Powell: which is ripe for revenge on Halloween 1993.
Heather Powell: The 90s are now becoming like the throwback. Right?
Heather Powell: Two years after a deadly nuclear spill, the staff of a historical
Heather Powell: Pioneer village attraction must work together to survive the attack of
Heather Powell: a monstrous killer pumpkins on the side of the pumpkin
Heather Powell: set on revenge. If you like Attack of the Killer Tomatoes or
Heather Powell: any kind of vegetable or fruit coming to life and causing drama, you're going
Heather Powell: to like this movie. It's a very, very simple concept.
Heather Powell: Killer pumpkins. We don't get more simplistic than that.
Heather Powell: I found it entertaining. I think I found it a little bit more entertaining than
Heather Powell: Scotty did. I. I thought the runtime was fine.
Heather Powell: I do think they kind of dragged out the third act a little bit,
Heather Powell: but there was enough comical things in it.
Heather Powell: It sets up like your typical fall fair history
Heather Powell: of the town. Pumpkins come for revenge.
Heather Powell: And. And here we go again. Great for kids if you're
Heather Powell: looking at getting kids into horror. A simple watch. It's sitting
Heather Powell: at like a. What is it here? A 94
Heather Powell: minute runtime. What you see is what you get here, people.
Heather Powell: It's about pumpkins coming to life. Scotty,
Heather Powell: anything you want to add or your thoughts? Scott: Yeah,
Scott: this movie blew its load right in the first 20 minutes and
Scott: then became a chore to watch after that for me.
Heather Powell: Oh, it's too bad. Scott: Like the setup for what
Scott: was going on and then Pumpkin Massacre,
Scott: that should have been left for like the third act and built
Scott: up some character development beforehand. But no,
Scott: they blew that all within the first like 20 to 30 minutes
Scott: and then just stumbled after that. Like, I didn't
Scott: like any of the characters. Just couldn't care less.
Scott: And I was starting to play on my phone more and more and more as
Scott: I kept going. And I'm going, oh my God, will this movie end already?
Scott: Like, like, it's like it's been going forever
Scott: now. It just. This should have been like 20 minutes shorter.
Scott: Like, I just was not a fan of this one. I originally gave
Scott: it a three star, but it's as it
Scott: sat with me, it's down to two star. Like it just.
Heather Powell: Oh, it's too bad. Still at a three star for me. I had a fun
Heather Powell: enough time with it, but I do think it drags a little bit. I agree.
Scott: Yeah. Like, I like, I say if they would have just built up characters
Scott: and kind of gave us some horror throughout
Scott: and then the big event at the end, that would have been
Scott: awesome. But I just like. Like they blew it all in the beginning and then
Scott: just didn't know where to go from there is what it. Heather Powell: Felt like, you know,
Heather Powell: and that's fair. It's a fair criticism. Scott: And I
Scott: don't know if you noticed this, but it has. The reporter in this was
Scott: Mr. Crockett. Heather Powell: Oh, yeah. Shit, I didn't realize that.
Heather Powell: That's a good point. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: So funny. Scott: So he was in two Hulaween movies.
Heather Powell: Hula Ween, huh? Well, this is available on Hula and
Heather Powell: Disney plus if anyone wants to check it out. We've kind of passed the season,
Heather Powell: but I know if you got kids at home, they may enjoy this.
Heather Powell: I liked it a little more, Scott, but I agree, like a 2. 2 star
Heather Powell: to 3 star rating is where most people will probably fall in this one.
Heather Powell: Yeah. The next one, I.
Heather Powell: So this movie had a lot of potential to be a really interesting
Heather Powell: film. And it kind of just got weird. It was something really different and then
Heather Powell: it got odd. This is called Ghost Game 2024.
Heather Powell: A daring couple's Internet challenge turned turns deadly as they
Heather Powell: trespass into a haunted house. Facing sinister evil lurking
Heather Powell: within his walls. As part of an Internet challenge to live
Heather Powell: undetected in a stranger's home. A daring couple targets an infamous
Heather Powell: haunted house and endures a series of chilling incidences
Heather Powell: as they witness the family descend into madness. So basically
Heather Powell: they break into a home and this family moves in and the home's haunted.
Heather Powell: So they watch these ghosts with this family and chaos
Heather Powell: occurs. It's a dead central dread central film.
Heather Powell: It's interesting, I'll give it this. The concept is very interesting and
Heather Powell: different. It's definitely something that I haven't seen before.
Heather Powell: So I give it credit for that. Matt woods
Heather Powell: gave it two and a half stars. I wonder what he wrote. I'm curious.
Heather Powell: Fright fest film number two, interesting concept. For me,
Heather Powell: it felt like a bit of a jumbled mess. Yeah, I would agree. Like there
Heather Powell: were loads of ideas thrown together and some of the decisions in the film didn't
Heather Powell: make any sense. It's not the worst thing I've seen this year. No,
Heather Powell: that would be me meant that would be the worst thing you've seen this year.
Heather Powell: And I won't read the rating because it's a spoiler. But yeah,
Heather Powell: I think he sums it up really well. I will give them credit.
Heather Powell: This was something different, but it does seem jumbled and maybe
Heather Powell: they should have just kind of worked through someone reading through the screenplay
Heather Powell: before they made it and asked does this flow in make sense?
Heather Powell: But I think sometimes once you get into filming a movie and it's a little
Heather Powell: more low budget, you don't have the time to turn around and think otherwise,
Heather Powell: whether it makes sense or not. Scott: Right. Heather Powell: So it's out
Heather Powell: there. I don't think it's a must watch for anybody,
Heather Powell: but I don't know if you're looking at making your own film one day.
Heather Powell: This might be a good movie to watch to kind of see how you could
Heather Powell: do something with a different plotline, but maybe smooth it out a little bit more.
Heather Powell: It's available on Amazon, Apple TV, Google Play,
Heather Powell: YouTube and Microsoft Store if anyone is interested.
Heather Powell: Oh my God. But it was better than this boring film.
Heather Powell: How theme park workers live.
Scott: I don't know. Heather Powell: Do you want to talk about it first?
Scott: Yep, I'll bring it in. Heather Powell: Okay. Scott: So we're talking about
Scott: haunt season. It's got an 81 minute run time
Scott: tagline is enter if you date. A masked maniac targets
Scott: cast members at a suburban Halloween haunt attraction,
Scott: turning their staged injuries into gruesome,
Scott: gruesome real life horrors. As the terror escalates,
Scott: the line between performance and reality blur.
Scott: Yeah, this was about 80 minute run.
Scott: 81 minute run time. I'd say it felt like about
Scott: 50 minutes a movie and half hour of montages
Scott: of how these haunt actors party afterwards.
Scott: And Walk through streets and do
Scott: all this other stupid. That was unnecessary.
Heather Powell: And have conversations about patriarchy and misogyny
Heather Powell: and like, I am all about the patriarchy
Heather Powell: misogyny. That. And even I was like,
Heather Powell: can we please just fucking move on and get back to the haunt?
Heather Powell: I found the dialogue painfully boring. Scott: Yeah, the dialogue
Scott: was just awful. The,
Scott: I guess you'd say reveal at the end was.
Scott: I could care less at that point. The kills
Scott: were. Nah, nothing to write home about. It was just
Scott: kind of had a almost like sepia tone
Scott: to the whole entire film. So it just had like this like yellowish
Scott: quality to the picture. And I don't know if that was to kind of make
Scott: it look like an older grind housy
Scott: style or what, but. Heather Powell: No, I don't know. I thought because they didn't have any
Heather Powell: money and they couldn't get a good camera. Scott: Yeah, I was gonna say it was
Scott: just like, it felt like an ugly filter they put on that was unnecessary.
Scott: And yeah, I didn't care about like the backstage shenanigans
Scott: of these haunt characters. Like, that sounds like it'd be a
Scott: fun concept for a horror film. But it,
Scott: they don't make it fun at all. And it
Scott: just feels. And just once again, for 81
Scott: minutes, it felt like it was dragging on and then adding
Scott: in the dumbass montages for some freaking reason,
Scott: which, well, let's be honest, it was filler to make it
Scott: a full length movie. That's why they added it. Heather Powell: And look, say what you will
Heather Powell: about the Mousetrap, but that was a better, more entertaining film than
Heather Powell: this movie. At least there were kills in
Heather Powell: the Mousetrap and it moved. You didn't get background.
Heather Powell: That didn't matter. Scott: Well, there was kills in this movie. They just weren't
Scott: memorable. Heather Powell: No. And like, at least in the Mousetrap,
Heather Powell: they used the arcade effectively. Scott: Right?
Heather Powell: Right. Like this was just. Oh. I said to Scott,
Heather Powell: I'm like, I hate watching it at this point because I just want to finish
Heather Powell: it because I like, like Haunts and I want to see more of the haunt.
Heather Powell: But it's like, watch Haunt. That's a much
Heather Powell: superior, better film about Haunts. Even Mickey's barking away
Heather Powell: and it's like, yeah, yeah, mama, yeah.
Scott: Erica and I were both hate watching it. By the end, we're just like,
Scott: oh, get this over with. Heather Powell: Like, it was so boring.
Heather Powell: Anyway, we're not gonna talk. I don't know. It's available on all the streaming services
Heather Powell: to rent it. I'm not. I don't recommend this at all. I really found that
Heather Powell: it was really, really boring. There's not one person I would recommend it to.
Heather Powell: Sorry. To the person that wrote this. It just wasn't for me.
Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: You know, there's. And that's sad when Scott
Heather Powell: and I like Scott and I will rent it on YouTube if you really want
Heather Powell: to support them. All right. Last couple
Heather Powell: ones that we're going to talk about is Big Man.
Heather Powell: So Shutter probably saw
Heather Powell: this and was like, oh, no. We learned our lesson from earlier this year.
Heather Powell: Okay. Scott: Oh, no.
Heather Powell: He's always closer than you think. For centuries and
Heather Powell: across cultures, parents have warned their children of the legendary Bag Man.
Heather Powell: I don't think that's a thing. Who snatches innocent children and
Heather Powell: stuffs them into his vile, rotting bag, never to be seen again.
Heather Powell: Badger McKee narrowly escaped such an encounter as a boy,
Heather Powell: which left him with lasting scars throughout his adulthood. Now Patrick's childhood.
Scott: Did you just say Badger McGee? Heather Powell: Patrick McGee. Scott: Oh, I was
Scott: gonna say Badger McGe. Iggy. What the fuck type of name is that?
Heather Powell: No, Patrick. Sorry. Which left him with lasting scars
Heather Powell: throughout his adulthood. Now Patrick's childhood tormentor
Heather Powell: has returned and is threatening the life of his wife Katrina
Heather Powell: and son Jake. You've seen any movie about
Heather Powell: someone with a bag on their head like Baghead,
Heather Powell: You've seen Big Man. It's like they were going to call this Big Head and
Heather Powell: they were like, oh, fuck,
Heather Powell: let's call it Bag Man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bag Man. Bag Man. Now, it's a
Heather Powell: different. Different plotline, but the same kind of thing. It was an easy
Heather Powell: enough watch to put on and watch.
Heather Powell: I will say that it. It was. It was simple.
Heather Powell: I. I didn't have to worry about doing a lot of
Heather Powell: thinking. That was great.
Heather Powell: But is this something that I would say to people? Make sure you go
Heather Powell: out and you watch Bagman. No, it's not.
Heather Powell: It's a 92 minute runtime. Let's see if anyone else has watched it.
Heather Powell: No one. Just me. So that's great. It's all good.
Heather Powell: Tim, you don't need to watch Bagman unless you're really trying to pad
Heather Powell: your numbers and you want to watch Bagman. But we've seen this before.
Heather Powell: Four core done not well. Basically,
Heather Powell: evil creature comes, seals, children,
Heather Powell: ultimate sacrifice made. End of film summed it up for everybody.
Heather Powell: We can all skip over Big man, but for some reason. Good to know you
Heather Powell: really liked Baghead and you like these kind of movies.
Heather Powell: It is available on Apple TV, Google Play, Amazon Video,
Heather Powell: Cineplex and YouTube, if you like that. Folk horror and the idea of
Heather Powell: kids being stolen all the time. Now,
Heather Powell: Scott is going to list through a bunch of movies shortly that he doesn't remember,
Heather Powell: so that tells you how good they all were. But I will finish off with
Heather Powell: another Netflix movie that is actually pretty decent.
Heather Powell: Don't move. You can run, but you can't. You can hide, but you can't run.
Heather Powell: A grieving woman in a secluded forest encounters a killer
Heather Powell: who injects her with a paralytic drug. As her body shuts down,
Heather Powell: her fightful survival begins. This is a very interesting
Heather Powell: survival film. It is very similar set up to other
Heather Powell: films we have seen before in terms of a survival movie.
Heather Powell: But I would argue that the characters, decisions made in this movie makes
Heather Powell: a lot more sense. There's a more realistic conversation
Heather Powell: that occurs with a police officer. I would say Finn
Heather Powell: Witterock, who plays the antagonist,
Heather Powell: is quite good. I think this movie moves quick.
Heather Powell: I think it's. I think it's a good little survival film. I,
Heather Powell: I did enjoy it. I. I thought it, it flowed well. I thought it was
Heather Powell: a different enough concept. It took a concept and
Heather Powell: it kind of molded it a little bit to make it a little more entertaining.
Heather Powell: This is a three and a half star from Tim Davis, a three and a
Heather Powell: half star from Kate Pollock, and a three and a half star from Duncan McLeish.
Heather Powell: I gotta agree with them. Netflix, you fucking brought it. This is
Heather Powell: a decent movie that you picked up that was entertaining quick,
Heather Powell: was in the 92 minute runtime and a great little survival flick.
Heather Powell: You got Netflix. I recommend checking out this film. Scott: All right,
Scott: awesome. Good to know. And yeah, it sounds like I got some Netflix
Scott: watches. Heather Powell: Yeah, definitely. Netflix has actually brought it this time.
Scott: Good to hear. All right, so yeah, like Heather said, I got a list of
Scott: movies. I'm not even going to read their synopsis. I'm just gonna kind of list
Scott: them off quickly because we've been at this for a while now too.
Scott: And these ones, I literally even reading the synopsis,
Scott: cannot remember a damn thing about it. Heather Powell: That's hilarious.
Scott: So it's either that when they're like that, that means they're
Scott: two and a half out of five stars for me. Like right in the middle
Scott: of the road. Very forgettable. Nothing horrible,
Scott: nothing great. So, yep, the movies are
Scott: Spin the Bottle, All Hallows Eve,
Scott: Inferno thing. That's like. Heather Powell: Oh, I watched Spin the Bottle too. I think.
Heather Powell: Yeah, it sucked. I turned it off. Scott: Yeah. Heather Powell: Yeah. Scott: I was like. Because I think
Scott: you told me you turned it off. Heather Powell: Yeah. Scott: You shall not sleep
Scott: tonight. All I remember is that was an anthology ad that couldn't
Scott: remember the stories underground. Yeah, that thing that.
Scott: I think that was found footage. And then Name the Demon,
Scott: which I also think was found footage. But yeah, I for the life of me
Scott: cannot remember a goddamn thing about him. So in my personal
Scott: opinion, those are ones that no one needs to worry about watching.
Heather Powell: What is your watch right now? Like, what are you at on letterbox
Heather Powell: for this year? Scott: I am at 102.
Heather Powell: Oh, I'm at 147. Scott: Yeah. I was gonna say,
Scott: yeah, you have blown past me. And I'm like, like, yeah, I'll be happy if
Scott: I make it to 125, 130, which is roughly where I said I wanted
Scott: to be by the end. Heather Powell: Well, I'll be real. As we hit November here,
Heather Powell: it's slowing down. There's a couple of theoretical watches I
Heather Powell: do want to see. Terrifier three, one of them. Not for all two.
Scott: Yes. Mile two. I definitely want to see. Heather Powell: Right. So there
Heather Powell: will be so. And who knows what shutter will drop between now and then,
Heather Powell: you know, But I definitely think it is slowing down. I imagine I'll be
Heather Powell: probably around the 155, 160 mark by the
Heather Powell: time we finish off this year. And that's fine.
Heather Powell: I think that's enough to have an opinion. I think even over 100. So lot
Heather Powell: to have an opinion, to be honest with you, in terms
Heather Powell: of older watches or other watches, as I put here.
Heather Powell: I finally got to watch the Boys in the Trees. I'll be right
Heather Powell: back. I'll talk about Boys in the Trees while you're gone. So this is
Heather Powell: actually a pretty epic film because it's a film that
Heather Powell: Scott and I have really tried to watch that is really hard to
Heather Powell: find here in North America. You either have to spend
Heather Powell: a ridiculous amount of money on a Blu Ray for it
Heather Powell: or not watch it. So I was thrilled
Heather Powell: when I opened up my laptop when I was in England, and of course
Heather Powell: I was able to get the shutter for the uk and
Heather Powell: I saw the Boys in the Trees was there. So I watched it.
Heather Powell: And I watched it with my friend Mark, who I kind of talked about before
Heather Powell: that. He watched the VHS film with me and he also watched this one.
Heather Powell: I had told him that this was a film that I had been searching for
Heather Powell: for a long time. It's an Australian film. He's like, well, this is really British
Heather Powell: sounding. I'm like, I know, but it's Australian. Because obviously they were once a
Heather Powell: British colony. And I
Heather Powell: will say I really did enjoy it.
Heather Powell: I'm glad I watched it. It was a heavier film than what
Heather Powell: I was prepared for.
Heather Powell: It definitely had slower
Heather Powell: parts in it and really builds on the relationship
Heather Powell: between the two young people in it.
Heather Powell: It's definitely a film that I do
Heather Powell: recommend and I think if you have the opportunity
Heather Powell: to get your hands on it, whether it's through Shudder, which hopefully it
Heather Powell: will be released here in Canada and United States,
Heather Powell: North America on Shutter, it's definitely worth it.
Heather Powell: But it is very dark and I know Mark had a similar
Heather Powell: sentiment to this. It is very
Heather Powell: much based on character development. And he also found the
Heather Powell: ending kind of depressing. Like I did too. The ending,
Heather Powell: though, not a surprise as you move through
Heather Powell: the movie, is quite sad.
Heather Powell: It's quite fucking sad, actually.
Heather Powell: And I did enjoy the kind
Heather Powell: of social message behind it, but it was not what I
Heather Powell: suspected. But I will say this is a watch
Heather Powell: if you can locate it. I was just saying, Scott, that this movie was a
Heather Powell: lot sadder than I intended. Both Mark and I found it quite depressing, the ending,
Heather Powell: but it's well done. The acting's good, the relationship between the
Heather Powell: two boys is strong. And I will say that if somehow we get it
Heather Powell: in North America, I would recommend you and Erica watch it. It is
Heather Powell: definitely a good film because. Scott: I think it's the only place
Scott: I'd seen it available was itunes and I don't have an itunes
Scott: account anymore. Heather Powell: So, yeah, yeah, I would wait. I'm hoping eventually
Heather Powell: Shudder picks it up. I was just lucky that I was in the UK and
Heather Powell: the UK Shutter had it, so I was able to watch it.
Heather Powell: But. And it was a long goal. And I think also it didn't help that
Heather Powell: I kind of built myself up to watch this movie. Like, I was like,
Heather Powell: oh my God, the boys are the dreams, right? Like here by chance.
Heather Powell: And I got why they called it the Boys in the Trees. As I said,
Heather Powell: it's a very emotional film, but a
Heather Powell: very well done film. So I do recommend it to other people. Do you have
Heather Powell: an older watch or an other watch or whatever that you want to add?
Scott: I was just looking to double check and it's one that I
Scott: cannot remember as well and called Dead Body.
Scott: So. And basically throughout October I was just watching stuff
Scott: I've seen before that is fair. Heather Powell: Well, I will pop into.
Scott: I do not have a book because I was. I've slowed down on
Scott: reading because of. I've been taking walks at work now.
Scott: And that's cut into how much reading I was doing when I read a physical
Scott: book. And I've been listening to 31 Days of
Scott: Horror with Tim through his podcast every single day.
Scott: So my it slowed down on my audiobook listening to
Scott: so I didn't get a chance to finish two of the books I'm in the
Scott: middle of. But by the time I record next time I should have
Scott: one or two books to talk about. Heather Powell: I was actually going to ask you about
Heather Powell: books after we went over the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards, so that's good
Heather Powell: to know. So the only other thing we will talk
Heather Powell: about before Scott skips off to his Halloween party is
Heather Powell: the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards. So I am a big fan of the Fangoria
Heather Powell: Chainsaw Awards. I watch them every year. Have you watched them,
Heather Powell: Scott? Scott: Over the years I watched, I think it was last
Scott: year's or the year before and I think that was about the only time I've
Scott: watched it. Heather Powell: I vote and I follow.
Heather Powell: I'm a big, big fan. So this
Heather Powell: award show was great because I'm gonna give a spoiler.
Heather Powell: David Dushnin won for his
Heather Powell: performance in Late Night with the Devil, which is definitely
Heather Powell: well deserved. Skinmarink won
Heather Powell: for Best New Director, which Scott and I have
Heather Powell: our opinions on that film, but, you know, it is what
Heather Powell: it is. And I will say that they had a variety
Heather Powell: of films that were nominated this year. Infested, for example, was nominated
Heather Powell: for Creature Feature, which I was quite happy to see. I think it deserved
Heather Powell: that nomination. I saw movies that were nominated
Heather Powell: that were not just low hanging fruit.
Heather Powell: Like the year that the Black Phone won everything.
Heather Powell: I was kind of like there were other films that were better
Heather Powell: than the Black. Right. But this I
Heather Powell: will say, you know, I was really happy to see that
Heather Powell: there were a variety of films that were brought
Heather Powell: to it. Like was it Blackish? That was
Heather Powell: the comedy was nominated for a comedy.
Heather Powell: And I believe that director won for.
Heather Powell: I think it was like first time directing like a musical or comedy or
Heather Powell: a horror comedy or something like that. Like it was something or screenplay
Heather Powell: writing or something like that. It was the same screenplay.
Heather Powell: He wrote it and also directed it. The only criticism
Heather Powell: I have of the Fangoria Chainsaw Awards is please stop doing
Heather Powell: the cheesy themes with it. The theme
Heather Powell: this year was found footage. And you have a couple
Heather Powell: of percenters that are actors and they can roll with it or directors
Heather Powell: and they can roll with it. And they do get some pretty well known people
Heather Powell: shouts out to the Godzilla minus one movie.
Heather Powell: They actually sent in a video in Japanese thanking for an award that they
Heather Powell: won and had it translated.
Heather Powell: But the whole cheesy shit that they do, please cut
Heather Powell: that out for next year. Like just give us the fucking awards.
Heather Powell: Just go through the awards and maybe talk about
Heather Powell: the films. There was a little bit of that that they did,
Heather Powell: which I really appreciated, but. But some of it was a little hyper.
Heather Powell: Cheese. Cheese. So if you watch, watch at
Heather Powell: your own risk. But I will say it was nice to see
Heather Powell: international films getting shouts out. It was nice to see films
Heather Powell: that were not just low hanging theater watch
Heather Powell: films being presented. I do believe Don't Speak was up.
Heather Powell: The original was up for an award as well. I think it was on for
Heather Powell: international film. Like that's what I'm saying. It was stuff like that that was really,
Heather Powell: really good quality. So it's on shutter.
Heather Powell: It's an hour and a half. Fast forward through some of the cheesy shit.
Heather Powell: The awards are worth it. I did really enjoy it.
Heather Powell: And I guess that's a wrap on episode 100.
Scott: Yeah, it was a meaty episode. I mean, it's going on over
Scott: two hours. So we had a lot of movies to talk about, hence why we
Scott: decided to push back the special thing that we were
Scott: gonna do till later. Because, yeah, we had a lot to talk about. Heather Powell: We did
Heather Powell: have a lot. We'll try to do at least three or four more shows,
Heather Powell: more episodes before the end of the year, depending on what we watch.
Heather Powell: We'll see how busy we are and probably when we get to a reasonable list,
Heather Powell: we'll record. So it's not a two hour extravaganza though. This used
Heather Powell: to be what we do. We used to do three hour, three and a half
Heather Powell: hour shows. It's got her and I. Like we have time for that. We get
Heather Powell: in and out. This is a committed relationship now with our horror fans.
Heather Powell: In and out. We're banging with our shirts on, people. We're not even taking
Heather Powell: that off. We're just getting it done and leaving.
Heather Powell: So thank you. Kind of not wrong, right?
Heather Powell: So Scotty is off to his Halloween party tonight. I am off to
Heather Powell: a friend's place. But we will continue to watch the horror and the good times
Heather Powell: and see what else comes out. And joins us in 2025.
