Speaker A:Ollie Larder's come up a few times.
Speaker A:I've told the story of Jeffrey Rush quite a few times too, about that movie Shine, where I can't say it that way.
Speaker A:My brain just said something that I should not say.
Speaker A:We played a mentally challenged pianist.
Speaker B:Yeah, let's be politically correct, sir.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Oh, and.
Speaker A:And we keep bringing up Maverick, one of our favorite movies.
Speaker A:We can connect a bunch of people together through these.
Speaker B:It is.
Speaker B:It is funny.
Speaker B:We talked about it just before we started recording tonight and yeah, people are standing out right and left.
Speaker B:But before we dive into the film itself, let's kind of rewind to the beginning a little bit.
Speaker B:Jump into the pre production notes.
Speaker B:On the House on Haunted Hill.
Speaker B:This movie was very first project from Dark Castle Entertainment, which was a new studio founded by Robert Zemeckis, Joel Silver and Gilbert Adler.
Speaker B:What was their mission, you may ask?
Speaker A:Oh, yeah.
Speaker A:What was the mission?
Speaker B:Remake classic horror films from legendary showman William Castle.
Speaker B:The guy who gave us gimmicks like Imurgo, where skeletons would literally fly over the audience in the theater.
Speaker B: off, they said, than Castle's: Speaker A:Vincent Price, which is why the main.
Speaker A:Well, one of the main characters of this name is Stephen Price.
Speaker B:And his character, played by Jeffrey Rush, is kind of a nod and a throwback to Vincent Price.
Speaker A:If you look 100, the pencil mustache, the look, the outfit.
Speaker B:Right, everything, for sure.
Speaker B:So it just kind of stands out because as.
Speaker B:As a nod to the great Vincent Price.
Speaker B:And they couldn't in a better way, I don't think.
Speaker B:For the director, they chose William Malone, a filmmaker with a strong visual eye and a background in atmospheric horror.
Speaker B:They, Malone and producer Dick Beebe spent over a year developing the script and visual design.
Speaker B:Their number one goal was to make the house itself feel like a character.
Speaker B:The idea was to build sprawling gothic sets filled with twisting quarters and cages.
Speaker B:Basically look like an insane asylum architecture.
Speaker B:So that when this, when the scares hit, the settings would have to work for you.
Speaker B:I mean, it's just a scary looking place to be running around in.
Speaker B:Yeah, I would not spend the night here for a million dollars.
Speaker B:I don't care what anybody.
Speaker B:I'm like, chris, I want my money now.
Speaker B:Yeah, I want my money now.
Speaker B:I'm leaving you.
Speaker A:Give it.
Speaker B:Y' all can stay here.
Speaker A:I'm serious.
Speaker B:It's crazy.
Speaker B:Casting was another huge part of Pre Production as well, they locked in Jeffrey Rush early.
Speaker B:And the fun bit about his character, Stephen Price, like we mentioned, was styled as a deliberate homage to Vincent Price, complete with mustache, slicked hair, and theatrical flair.
Speaker B:Rush even said his.
Speaker B:I'm sorry.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Rush even said his look was influenced by both Vincent Price and Walt Disney, which is.
Speaker A:Oh, I could see that.
Speaker B:Exactly.
Speaker B:I didn't.
Speaker B:When I read that, I was like, wow, I can completely see the two of them in him right now.
Speaker B:And it's funny.
Speaker B:His character, you know, is doing the scary thing about the house.
Speaker B:And he did an amusement park.
Speaker B:Right?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:At the beginning.
Speaker A:That was one to me.
Speaker A:And I can remember the very first time I saw this.
Speaker A:I think this is why I legitimately.
Speaker A:I don't know if I've said it here yet or not, but I did.
Speaker A:We did say it before we started the show.
Speaker A:I know I said it.
Speaker A:That this is totally one of my favorite horror movies, period.
Speaker A:Like, this is in my top 10 top five, probably top five it.
Speaker A:And the very opening of it.
Speaker A:I cannot.
Speaker A:I'm telling you, I'm like, whoa, we're starting out like this, like, dude.
Speaker A:And.
Speaker A:And then we're like, you know, watching it with my friends or whatever, and I'm like, man, I would totally go to that theme park.
Speaker A:It's like, that theme park is crazy.
Speaker A:You know the AI videos that you see?
Speaker A:Well, like, the things jumping the track and all.
Speaker A:I feel like that started with this because, like, this is something that showed in the commercial, too.
Speaker A:So if you look up a trailer, you would see it that they.
Speaker A:The roller coaster stops, starts 20 stories in the air.
Speaker A:So, like, it starts at the top, and while they're riding it, the dog on tracks open up and the car in front of them flies off the track.
Speaker A:They're all freaking out.
Speaker A:Well, you learn immediately that's a robotic.
Speaker A:That's meant to happen.
Speaker A:That's robotic.
Speaker A:They're like, whoa, what happened?
Speaker A:Is it.
Speaker A:And then the tracks close and they go on around.
Speaker A:And then Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer was like, oh, my God.
Speaker A:It's like, yeah, well, the elevator thing.
Speaker B:Freaked him out bad, too.
Speaker B:He completely sold it on him.
Speaker B:He completely sold it going on.
Speaker A:Oh, man, it was so good.
Speaker B:It is so crazy.
Speaker A:They.
Speaker A:Yeah, I could believe them taking the year to.
Speaker A:To prep for this because I, I.
Speaker A:Everything it just said.
Speaker A:I felt like, spot on too, while I was watching it this time.
Speaker A:My first 4 million watches of this movie.
Speaker A:I never thought about it, but while watching it this time, I'm like, why is like the entire movie shot down here, you know, I mean, it's not.
Speaker A:The entire thing's not shot in the basement, but for the most part, you know, 90 of the movies in the maze of the basement, which.
Speaker A:It does make sense because that's where they.
Speaker A:It was.
Speaker A:It wasn't.
Speaker A:It was actually an insane asylum, sort of.
Speaker A:It's for the.
Speaker A:It was an asylum for the criminally insane.
Speaker A:And they did all the testing and holding down that.
Speaker B:The first five or ten minutes of the movie in it.
Speaker B:The.
Speaker B:Yeah, they're doing the testing on people.
Speaker B:And the.
Speaker B:The way that.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:The Dr. Vanicut.
Speaker B:Things he's doing to him and everything.
Speaker B:That's crazy.
Speaker A:And that's another thing I love about this movie, too, is.
Speaker A:Is the visuals are.
Speaker A:It's twisted, like it's out there.
Speaker B:Well, we got Fam.
Speaker B:K Jansen, which is playing the role of the wife of the main character.
Speaker B:Well, he's not really the main character, I guess, but wasn't Stephen Price.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Famky Jansen's playing the wife now.
Speaker B:She.
Speaker B:Actually.
Speaker B:There was somebody else before her that was picked.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Evelyn's name, I believe it is Evelyn.
Speaker B:There was somebody picked before her to play that role, and I forget why she couldn't do it.
Speaker B:And I'm trying to remember what her name is.
Speaker B:I just seen it earlier.
Speaker B:I was trying to find it while you were talking a second ago, and I have not found it yet, but.
Speaker A:I'm glad that she wasn't able to do it.
Speaker A:Oh, I don't know.
Speaker B:Elizabeth Hurley.
Speaker A:Oh.
Speaker B:Was originally picked or was original.
Speaker B:Was considered for the role, I should say.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Maybe not picked, but she was definitely considered.
Speaker B:Just like Cindy Crawford was considered for the role of Melissa Margaret Marr.
Speaker B:Oh, now is that the.
Speaker B:The girl played by Bridget Wilson?
Speaker B:They had the camera.
Speaker A:Is that what Melissa Margaret Mar.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Okay.
Speaker B:Sonia Blade.
Speaker B:It was kind of.
Speaker B:Kind of getting ahead of myself a little bit, I guess.
Speaker B:While rising stars like Taye Diggs, Allie Larder and Bridget Wilson filled out the ensemble, there were even rumors that Marilyn Manson was considered for the role of the asylum doctor before it went to Jeffrey Combs.
Speaker A:I could see that.
Speaker A:Because this movie.
Speaker A:Sweet.
Speaker A:When he redid Sweet Dreams, he did it, if I'm not mistaken, he did it for this soundtrack.
Speaker A:And then the song took on.
Speaker A:Took off by itself.
Speaker B:Man.
Speaker B:It's definitely.
Speaker A:It definitely fits that Manson, you know.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:But it definitely fits the feel of that movie.
Speaker A:Yeah, that's that duty.
Speaker A:And then you have that weird sound at the beginning, too.
Speaker B:Yep.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:This Movie.
Speaker A:Everything about this movie, to me, the only thing for me.
Speaker A:Well, we'll get to that later.
Speaker A:But yeah, this is.
Speaker A:It still holds up as one of my favorites of all time.
Speaker A:Even like I said before, I wouldn't have had to rewatch it.
Speaker A:I could have done the episode without re watching it.
Speaker A:But that's part of the fun of the podcast is going back and re watching these movies.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker A:And this movie definitely still holds up to me as one of my favorites.
Speaker B:Well, the box office release did fairly well for him.
Speaker B:The release is October 29th.
Speaker B: th,: Speaker B:The budget was 19 million, which at the time was not a lot for a movie in the late 90s, but 19 million.
Speaker B:So it was kind of a tight record, you know, filming and no, not a lot of reworking and you know, they had to cut their locations for filming down quite a bit.
Speaker B:A lot of it, I think, into the set work and everything.
Speaker B:The box office.
Speaker A:One cool thing about it too, uh, I thought was cool was that the, uh, the Griffith Observatory was used for exterior shots.
Speaker A:And then they took paintings and miniatures that gave the house large, the big feel like it was, you know, hanging off or built into the side of the cliff right there.
Speaker B:There wasn't a lot of CGI done in the movie.
Speaker B:It's a lot of classic, you know, effects and things that were done.
Speaker B:There's a mix of it, but the CGI came in mostly at the end.
Speaker B:The box office take was 40.8 million worldwide.
Speaker B:So on a 19 million budget, you say they doubled their money, which is pretty good there.
Speaker B:The reception of it was mixed to negative reviews from critics, but a moderate box office success.
Speaker B:It's funny with critics what they find good and what they don't.
Speaker B:They praise the part where it was the insane asylum at the beginning of it.
Speaker B:They're doing the work or the testing on a lot of the, the people there.
Speaker B:And then whenever they took over the house, the then, well, the criminally insane, they took over the house, started killing the doctors.
Speaker B:They were like, oh, that's awesome.
Speaker B:That's great.
Speaker B:That's what they've done is great.
Speaker B:But then when it went to the rest of the movie, it was just cheesy and campy to them and.
Speaker A:Yeah, I didn't think so.
Speaker A:I loved it.
Speaker B:Well, you, you know how when it comes to critics, man, I mean.
Speaker A:Well, yeah, you know, the, When Blair Witch came out, the critics were raving over Blair Witch and I literally walked out of.
Speaker A:I've, I've seen it in its entirety since.
Speaker A:And I stand by my decision to get so angry at the movie that I walked out of it.
Speaker B:Who wanted to watch a movie film with a camcorder the whole time?
Speaker A:I mean, sucked so bad.
Speaker A:Cloverfield worked.
Speaker B:Not for me.
Speaker B:I mean, I didn't like the way Clerks was filmed.
Speaker B:The original Clerks.
Speaker A:Yeah, Clerks is a little strange, but it's still.
Speaker A:I.
Speaker A:It's okay.
Speaker A:But Blair Witch Project was just, to me, just one of the worst movies of all time.
Speaker B:And then the supposed, you know, cliffhanger thing at the end where the person is supposed to be standing in the corner, but they're levitated off the ground.
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah, whatever.
Speaker A:That's the only thing in the movie you see, aside from this chick crying into the camera with snot running out of her nose.
Speaker B:That's what you really wanted to see, wasn't it?
Speaker B:You pay your hard earned money.
Speaker B:She's not running out of somebody's nose.
Speaker A:For real.
Speaker A:See, for me, Cloverfield worked some people.
Speaker A:Cloverfield's probably a mixed bag because of that, but I liked Cleverfield a lot.
Speaker A:And then you got.
Speaker A:It's a movie called Hardcore Harry, which is not what it sounds like.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:It's the first movie shot in first person, which is super awesome.
Speaker A:It shot like a video game.
Speaker A:Like, first person video game.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:I just watched it with my youngest the other day.
Speaker A:Or, well, back in.
Speaker A:Over the summer, I watched it with Connor and he fell in love with it.
Speaker A:He's like, damn, this movie's super cool.
Speaker A:I was like, right.
Speaker B:And thankfully, it's not what you made it sound like to be.
Speaker A:Yeah, it's not.
Speaker A:It's not.
Speaker A:He's just.
Speaker A:He's a test subject that breaks loose and mayhem ensues.
Speaker A:It's like a first person shooter video game.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Let's jump on the cast.
Speaker B:Jeffrey Rush.
Speaker B:I just wanted to ask him one question.
Speaker B:Yeah, just one.
Speaker B:Just one question.
Speaker B:What are you doing?
Speaker A:What are you doing?
Speaker A:No, what are you doing?
Speaker B:What are you doing?
Speaker B:What are you doing?
Speaker B:What are you doing?
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:Jeffrey, to me, is what.
Speaker A:Jeffrey's probably one of my favorite actors because Barbosa is one of my favorite.
Speaker A:Barbosa is my favorite Pirates character for sure.
Speaker A:But I could not say that that's my favorite Jeffrey Rush movie and that.
Speaker A:And to me, that's incredible because that's such a. I mean, that's such an iconic role and he's.
Speaker A:But he's done so much that's so good that I. I wouldn't say that.
Speaker A:Like, that's My absolute favorite.
Speaker A:Because when I think of him, I don't.
Speaker A:When I think of Jeffrey Rush, I think of this movie.
Speaker A:I think of the pianist.
Speaker A:I think of him playing Sir Francis in Walsingham.
Speaker A:I think of him as the.
Speaker A:The playwright from Shakespearean love, I think.
Speaker A:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:Like, he is just amazing to me.
Speaker B:I was gonna bring up.
Speaker B:I was gonna say.
Speaker B:I didn't.
Speaker B:I never really knew much about Jeffrey Rush, movie wise.
Speaker B:I didn't then.
Speaker B:I didn't realize how much I did know because I'm looking here now.
Speaker B:I knew Pirates of the Caribbean, obviously, right.
Speaker B:But Shakespeare in Love didn't really sink into my head.
Speaker B:And we just did that.
Speaker B:What, last year?
Speaker A:Yeah, we just did it last year.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Or no, earlier this year.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:It's a mystery.
Speaker A:He was.
Speaker A:He was one.
Speaker A:He was my.
Speaker A:He was one of the best parts of that movie.
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah, for sure.
Speaker B:And I love him in Pirates once again.
Speaker B:I live in cards.
Speaker B:Pirates of The Caribbean, yeah.
Speaker B:Fam K Jansen played Evelyn Stockard Price, known for GoldenEye X Men franchises.
Speaker B:Jean Gray on the cast.
Speaker A:That's what I was gonna say.
Speaker A:I mean, to me, when we brought her up earlier, I was like, you know, I'm glad that nobody else did get it, because to me, with her look now, okay, of course, to me, she's like drop dead Gore.
Speaker A:She's my kind of woman.
Speaker A:She's my type as far as looks are concerned.
Speaker A:But that aside, the way that she was able to have.
Speaker A:The way she's able to evil eye you.
Speaker A:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:The way she's.
Speaker A:She was so perfect for the role that she did.
Speaker B:And I didn't bring up Rounders, which we just got done doing.
Speaker A:And she was great in there, too.
Speaker A:See?
Speaker A:So there we go.
Speaker A:There's our second seven.
Speaker B:There's another one right there.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:Tay Diggs played the role of Eddie Baker.
Speaker A:Hey, that's not standard procedure.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker A:Can you blame the man.
Speaker B:No, no.
Speaker B:For how Stella got her groove back.
Speaker B:The best man on TV's show the Private Practice, I think he was in.
Speaker B:Was he in SWAT also or just in an episode or so I forgot.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:He was in this really cool movie around the time of the Matrix called Equilibrium.
Speaker B:Yeah, he was just in one episode of swat.
Speaker B:I'm sorry, I was scrolling through earlier and I looked at it and saw his name on there.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker A:Called Equilibrium.
Speaker A:That's really, really cool.
Speaker A:If y' all hadn't seen it.
Speaker A: It's a: Speaker A:Won't get done with all this.
Speaker A: I mean, when the: Speaker B:Yeah, it takes a while, man.
Speaker B:Yeah, we at least be 20, 30.
Speaker B: So we can do: Speaker B:Got to give a couple of decades past that point.

Speaker A:But I didn't realize that was him.
Speaker A:I was like, why does this guy look so familiar?
Speaker A:You know, he looks way different.
Speaker A:It's like.
Speaker A:It's like he.
Speaker A:There was.
Speaker A:There was a.
Speaker A:During some decade or five year period, he aged 30 years, and then he just stayed right there and never aged anymore.
Speaker B:Must be.
Speaker B:He must have talked to Tom Cruise.
Speaker A:He must have spoke.
Speaker B:Or Keanu Reeves.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:You know, how do you keep that youthful appearance?
Speaker A:He was.
Speaker A:Wasn't he the dad as well?
Speaker B:Or.
Speaker A:No, he.
Speaker A:Purdue.
Speaker A:Oh, wow.
Speaker A:Oh, wait a minute.
Speaker A:I'm thinking I'm looking at the wrong page.
Speaker A:I'm.
Speaker A:I'm looking at Robert Zimakius.
Speaker B:Robert Zemeckis is one of the directors, wasn't he?
Speaker B:Yeah, well, it's not a director for this movie, but he's a director, though.
Speaker A:He's a director.
Speaker A:He's produced a ton of stuff.
Speaker A:Like they redid the 13 ghost movie that we.
Speaker A: and then we found out it was: Speaker B:It didn't make my heart too.
Speaker B:I really wanted to do that.
Speaker A:Yeah, that was a good one.
Speaker B:And, you know, I didn't know that was a remake.
Speaker B:I didn't know that.
Speaker B:No, I did not know.
Speaker B:He.
Speaker B:He was also a Mr.
Speaker B:Deeds as well.
Speaker B:Played Chuck Cedar and Mr.
Speaker B:Deeds.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:We were just talking about Mr.
Speaker B:Deeds the other day when we were talking about.
Speaker A:Yeah, why would you do that?
Speaker A:He said, yeah, he hit it.
Speaker A:I can't feel anything.
Speaker A:He was whacking his foot and he stabbed it.
Speaker B:Oh, my God.
Speaker B:So Chris Kattan played Watson Pritchett.
Speaker B:Chris Kattan is most well known for Saturday Night Live and Night at the Roxbury Movies.
Speaker B:Like, you know, every time I hear that song, man, I cannot.
Speaker B:You can't help but just do this right here, you know, bobbing like that.
Speaker A:Oh, my gosh.
Speaker A:He was so funny on snl, man.
Speaker A:Some of his characters.
Speaker A:You had mango such.
Speaker A:It's a mango.
Speaker A:It didn't smack himself on the butt.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:And then Mr. Peepers.
Speaker A:Him, dude, him and Will Frell.
Speaker A:Do it.
Speaker A:Peepers stuff that they did where he was like the half monkey, half human to Mr. Peepers had me dying all the time.
Speaker B:I thought you were talking about the rock coming on there and doing one of the Peepers skits with him.
Speaker A:Hey, yeah, that one, too.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:All Mr. Peepers had me dying laughing.
Speaker A:He'd eat.
Speaker A:Or he'd eat the apple real fast and it spilled up your face and stuff.
Speaker B:They had Corky Romano.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:That was really more of a stupid movie than anything, though.
Speaker A:Well, when he did all the cocaine was pretty funny.
Speaker B:Movie was that.
Speaker A:And Corky Romano, remember the cocaine blew up on him.
Speaker B:Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:Well, when I think of Corky Romano, the main thing that stands out is him dressed up like a Girl Scout, going to someone's door, trying to.
Speaker A:Oh, gosh.
Speaker A:Yeah, that was pretty good, too.
Speaker B:That's the thing that stands out the most to me.
Speaker B:Going back to a couple more people in the cast.
Speaker B:Now, these aren't exactly main characters, but Max Perlit had a little spot in it.
Speaker B:He's one of the people who was working with the character Stephen Price, to try to scare people in the house because Price didn't believe the house was really haunted or anything like that.
Speaker A:Well, none of them did, except for Pritchett.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:Because he knew all of them thought.
Speaker A:It was bunk until then.
Speaker A:We were like, damn.
Speaker B:You were like, where do we know him from?
Speaker B:And then you brought up, you know, of course, Maverick.
Speaker B:He's the.
Speaker B:The.
Speaker B:The gunslinger in Maverick that finds out that Maverick's a little bit quicker.
Speaker A:That looks fast.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:Yes, man.
Speaker B:That was pretty fast.
Speaker A:Yes, ma'.
Speaker B:Am.
Speaker B:Jeffrey Combs was Dr. Vanacut, which was just the guy back in the old video that was doing the work on the criminally insane people.
Speaker A:Dr. Van Cut was monster dude, for sure.
Speaker B:Yeah, definitely.
Speaker A:You know what?
Speaker A:Going back to the stuff about what made this movie different, too, and.
Speaker A:And what made it so good was this, the way that they had the ghosts and the creatures moving.
Speaker A:So the way.
Speaker A:Like when.
Speaker A:When.
Speaker A:When Evelyn went back to her room and Stephen went up and saw Matt Perlich Schecter character, he went to spin around the dagum chair and his whole face was, like, cut out or ripped out or whatever.
Speaker B:So taking a.
Speaker B:Like a giant poker, just shoved it straight in his face or one of.
Speaker A:Those things with the big mouths, just Coming there and bite his face off.
Speaker B:But are you talking about thing how the ghost moves?
Speaker B:You're talking about.
Speaker A:Yeah, how he was walking through the room.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:And then the way that they'd get all fast and flappy.
Speaker B:But the one where.
Speaker B:The one that Melissa Morris seems she's going through with the camera trying to find some evidence of making something good.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:That big thing that run up in her face, that's what I was like.
Speaker A:I, I like to think that that thing bit Shaker's face off.
Speaker B:Dude, that, that thing was creepy.
Speaker B:I, I don't like creepy stuff when it comes to horror movies.
Speaker B:I'll watch the slasher films all day long.
Speaker B:I don't like the movies where they got the creepy kind of stuff in it.
Speaker B:The stuff that just dances on your, on your spine and makes you feel like you got tingles going all down.
Speaker B:Yeah, I just got a tingle going to my spine thinking about that thing rushing into the camera again.
Speaker B:Just ye.
Speaker A:No eyes and then some kind of weird alligator mouth.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:Like.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:It was almost like the.
Speaker A:It was almost like the vampires out of Preacher.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:I must vampires out of that thing.
Speaker A:But yeah, the way that, the movements that they made.
Speaker A:Like when, when Eddie, when, when Al.
Speaker A:When Al first went downstairs to try to find the.
Speaker A:The leverage mechanism to open the walls back up.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:And they all got separated and then Eddie's like walking away from her and he turns around, he's got that weird red shine in his eyes.
Speaker A:But then she walks in and sees him behind the door and he's like.
Speaker A:Like some kind of moth clapping against the window.
Speaker B:Right?
Speaker A:Yeah, that was.
Speaker A:To me this, that was unsettling when this came out.
Speaker A:I've seen it so many times now.
Speaker A:But yeah, I was like, dude, look, that's freaky.
Speaker B:Dude.
Speaker B:And then we have a couple of people here we're going to throw out and this is the last two I'm going to bring up.
Speaker B:Lisa Loeb and James Marsters.
Speaker B:They were.
Speaker B:The Channel 3 reporter was Lisa Loeb.
Speaker B:And this is it toward the beginning of it, after they show the.
Speaker B:Basically the insane asylum and how it ended and everything.
Speaker B:Basically, I guess before it got closed down.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:They go to the, the amusement park where Price is showing them, I guess the new roller coaster they got going on, the new ride.
Speaker B:And Celisa Loeb, which was.
Speaker B:What was she known for music wise.
Speaker B:Do you remember the songs that she did?
Speaker B:No, I can't remember.
Speaker A:I know the name for sure, but I remember more Like, I know she did music, but I remember more from, like, Hot Tub Time Machine and this and Legally Blonde and.
Speaker B:Yeah, I just don't.
Speaker A:Those kind of things.
Speaker B:I know that she did music.
Speaker B:I can't remember a single song she did, though.
Speaker B:She's known as a musician, but you can't say one song she did.
Speaker B:James Marsters was the cameraman with her.
Speaker B:And I got to thinking, James Marsters.
Speaker B:That name sounds so familiar.
Speaker B:I'm looking at him like, dude, that's.
Speaker B:That's Spike from Buffy and Angel.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:I got to.
Speaker B:I looked him up and sure enough, it is.
Speaker B:It's just a younger.
Speaker B:It's just like a younger picture of him.
Speaker B:It looks like.
Speaker A:Right.
Speaker A:And see, and it's so much so and without the blonde hair that I didn't even notice that until you said it.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:And that's what.
Speaker A:He was jumping in the elevator.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:We're gonna die.
Speaker A:That was so good, that scene, dude.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Everything about this movie's awesome to me, except for that one thing.
Speaker B:That one thing.
Speaker A:That one thing almost.
Speaker A:Almost ruins it.
Speaker A:And it didn't back then back.
Speaker A:So when it came out, it was.
Speaker A:It was awesome.
Speaker A:It looked great and everything, but by nowadays standards, it's terrible.
Speaker A:I'm not gonna say.
Speaker A:I'm not gonna say it ruins the movie, but I'm gonna say that the special effects throughout using.
Speaker A:Utilizing the traditional mechanics and makeup.
Speaker A:And then it looks.
Speaker A:Looks so amazing.
Speaker A:And so you go through the whole movie and it looks just.
Speaker A:The visuals are just incredible.
Speaker A:The gore is great.
Speaker A:Like swapping back and forth between the black and white.
Speaker A:Oh, my God.
Speaker A:How about when.
Speaker A:When she's walking downstairs and she's looking before that creature shows up, she's looking at the empty room and she sees the nurse and Vannakut doing the operation.
Speaker A:Look at her.
Speaker A:Creepy.
Speaker B:It's like she's seeing it real time through her camera.
Speaker B:She's holding up her.
Speaker B:Her camcorder.
Speaker B:Yeah, he's seeing it real time happening.
Speaker B:Then she hears that noise at the end of the hall and she looks over to her left and you see this thing and his head's just cocked to the side like this, you know?
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:Vibrating.
Speaker B:And it's like.
Speaker B:It's like watching the flash and seeing the reverse flash come at you.
Speaker B:Vibrating.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:What was wild, though, was like there was nothing in front of her, though.
Speaker A:She had to look through her cameras like she was catching the camera.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:So it's like, what in the world?
Speaker A:But the.
Speaker A:The.
Speaker A:The obvious CGI effects at the very End of was neat, but at the same time, it's like, man, this is that you.
Speaker A:You know, like, it's like thinking like this is where the budget went, so.
Speaker A:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:Like, man, it's.
Speaker A:It's almost like nowadays you feeling like, man, y' all could have done.
Speaker A:After all y' all did.
Speaker A:This could have been more.
Speaker B: s criticized as dated even in: Speaker B:They're saying that was just a dated technology they were doing.
Speaker B:They should.
Speaker B:That they could have done better.
Speaker B:But the practical set design was praised heavily for what they did with it.
Speaker A:Everything else was just flat out wonderful.
Speaker B:Now, the roller coaster, like I said, I don't think.
Speaker A:I don't think it ruined the movie or nothing, but.
Speaker B:No, no, it didn't.
Speaker A:It was a little bit of a letdown still, though.
Speaker B:I mean, when you're watching a movie like that, I mean, you're.
Speaker B:You're watching it for the scares more than anything else.
Speaker B:So.
Speaker A:Yeah, when I first watched it, it didn't bother me at all the first 20 times.
Speaker A:Like, don't.
Speaker A:I didn't even think that until this re.
Speaker A:Watch.
Speaker A:You know what I mean?
Speaker A:Like this.
Speaker A:And like I said, I've watched that movie countless times.
Speaker B:The roller coaster we spoke about just a few minutes ago talked about that.
Speaker B:The amusement park where he was debuting the new roller coaster with the news people.
Speaker B: d Goliath, and that opened in: Speaker B:But I guess that's a real ride in Six Flags Magic Mountain.
Speaker A:Yeah, but it don't do what it does.
Speaker B:No, no, no, no, no.
Speaker B:Not like that.
Speaker B:No.
Speaker B:But they were talking the actual.
Speaker A:The actual track and twists and turns and stuff.
Speaker B:Yeah, yeah.
Speaker B:So does the elevator do that?
Speaker B:I don't know.
Speaker A:That would be cool.
Speaker A:I don't know.
Speaker A:I don't know if the elevator.
Speaker A:I know for a fact the tracks don't open up and send a car off and then close back.
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker A:But if the elevator did that, you could legit give somebody.
Speaker A:You'd have to make somebody sign a waiver because that would.
Speaker B:Yeah, that would.
Speaker B:That would bring you a heart attack, probably.
Speaker A:If I was an elevator and it did that and it looked that realistic.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:I'd be freaking out, too.
Speaker B:Dude.
Speaker B:What was one of your.
Speaker B:Speaking of the movie, do you have a favorite part, a favorite scene?
Speaker A:It's so hard to pick.
Speaker A:I. I'm Gonna have to say not really because I mean, it's.
Speaker A:I love this movie through and through.
Speaker A:It's.
Speaker A:There's so many twists and turns, you know, the first time you watch it and like we, we didn't, we didn't reveal it, but when the doctor, you know, so at some point Stephen Price gets locked into this mechanism, this.
Speaker A:They say what, what, what drives a sane man mad?
Speaker A:Which I have a mad.
Speaker A:An insane man, a madman sane.
Speaker A:That's what it was.
Speaker A:He gets locked in there.
Speaker A:And Blackburn turned it on.
Speaker A:See, See what Blackburn's role was later on was like.
Speaker A:That's a twist that you didn't see coming the first time you watch it.
Speaker A:Like what?
Speaker B:You're right.
Speaker B:I suppose I say that confused me because it's like they were locking him in there just to put him somewhere.
Speaker B:Right?
Speaker B:Yeah, the.
Speaker B:They wouldn't.
Speaker B:He would.
Speaker B:They were going to turn it on and get it started.
Speaker A:So far, Blackburn's been like the most level headed.
Speaker A:You know, he's a doctor, so I mean, he's, he's very.
Speaker A:He.
Speaker A:He hasn't been cussing and raising Cane like everybody else does and freaking out.
Speaker A:He's been sitting in that big room drinking mimosas, assessing the situation.
Speaker A:It seemed like, you know, so.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Then when he locks him in there, he's in the door like, what, What?
Speaker A:I can't hear.
Speaker A:What's this dude?
Speaker A:And you're like, what is.
Speaker A:What's he doing?
Speaker B:Right.
Speaker B:But now leading up to this though, they, they noticed there's something going on with the electricity in the house or sounds like it's fading in and out or something, I believe.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:And they're like, what is it?
Speaker B:And someone finally realizes it goes electroshock therapy.
Speaker B:And they take off down this hall and Famkey Jansen's character, Evelyn, is strapped down to the table and she's got the, the helmet thing on and it's like all the electricity is just being rush through her.
Speaker B:So, you know, Price is yelling, someone shut it off.
Speaker B:Someone shut it off.
Speaker B:You know, make this stop.
Speaker B:And they're trying to.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:So Price is sure that one of them killed her and they're sure that Price did it because they both been talking about killing each other all night.
Speaker A:Which they thought it was a.
Speaker A:Because it's set up like a game.
Speaker A:It's set up almost like an escape room.
Speaker A:So we didn't go over that part either.
Speaker A:Is that.
Speaker A:So he made a.
Speaker A:Okay, so at the beginning of the movie, Evelyn is entered in her fancy bubble bath and she Sees a commercial for this house and she calls Stephen and like, this is where we're having my birthday party.
Speaker A:So they rent it.
Speaker A:Well, she makes a guest list and then he changes her guest list.
Speaker A:And then mysteriously his computer turns back on and starts typing all these names in, deletes the guest list and types all these new names in.
Speaker A:So the way they set it up is when they all get to the mansion is obviously for her birthday parties or whatever parties.
Speaker A:In the past, he has set up some kind of murder mystery game or, you know, like the trains you go on or whatever.
Speaker A:So it was set up on that premise.
Speaker A:And whoever didn't die or didn't leave through.
Speaker A:Made it through the entire night, got a one.
Speaker A:A million dollar cashier's check.
Speaker A:And then whoever was.
Speaker A:Was left, whoever did die or did leave would get that money divvied up between them.
Speaker A:So they're all suspicious.
Speaker A:Throughout most of the movie, even though this weird stuff's happening and it's going back showing you too.
Speaker A:Like, Max Berlich's character, Shector is in like a control room doing things and making.
Speaker A:Making things happen.
Speaker A:So they're all very skeptical over whether or not the place is actually haunted for very much of the movie.
Speaker A:Even though it's like all these crazy things are happening.
Speaker A:It's like this.
Speaker A:It's so good.
Speaker B:And then we got to bring up also he says if as long as no one leaves the house, then you find out no one can leave the house because some kind of a lockdown thing is taking place.
Speaker B:All the windows and doors.
Speaker A:Yeah, that Pritchett's dad didn't get disconnected.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:So I mean, there's no way out of the place.
Speaker A:Well, that's what starts them exploring and going down to the basement and everything too, though, is looking for that mechanism.
Speaker B:Right, right.
Speaker B:So, I mean, I think.
Speaker B:I think one of my favorite parts is finally realizing what direction this movie is finally going.
Speaker B:The first time I've seen it, I'm thinking, you know, what is going on with this doctor?
Speaker B:He did the weird thing to the other guy he locked up and he's like, like you said, what's this?
Speaker B:What's this button do?
Speaker B:What is.
Speaker B:I can't hear you.
Speaker B:You know, crazy and said something.
Speaker B:I'm like, well, why did he do that to him?
Speaker B:They were just locking him up and he's been like, is.
Speaker B:Is he one of the.
Speaker B:Is he in on it?
Speaker B:Is he a bad person or something?
Speaker A:Oh, I remember when I first before you before, if you're going to Say what.
Speaker A:What it is.
Speaker A:Then before you do, I'll say that.
Speaker A:I remember the very first time I watched it, I thought that maybe he was actually going to be Vanicut or something or since they found out.
Speaker A:But I think by then they had found out that everybody was there because.
Speaker B:Of a relation to somebody.
Speaker A:A relation or dirt.
Speaker A:It was during that.
Speaker A:It was during that.
Speaker A:It was right after he turned the machine on.
Speaker A:It Cl.
Speaker A:It cut to Eddie and Sarah.
Speaker A:So they found.
Speaker A:They figured out that everybody that was invited was somehow related to the cat.
Speaker A:The staff that was there the night that the hospital burned down.
Speaker A:So that made me think they're so.
Speaker A:They're like, well, who is Blackburn?
Speaker A:And I was like, oh, my God, he's Vanna cuts kid or.
Speaker A:Or grandkid or something like that.
Speaker B:I mean, he was a doctor, right?
Speaker B:It fits.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:But then I'm watching him going.
Speaker B:But he goes back in there where Evelyn's character is laying there dead, and.
Speaker A:I'm like, gets into a little necrophilia.
Speaker B:That's what it looked like was about to happen.
Speaker B:I'm like, what is.
Speaker B:This is disgusting.
Speaker B:What are they doing?
Speaker A:They did a good with that too, didn't they?
Speaker B:Kisses her and I'm like, oh, she got.
Speaker A:She just popped a little bit of the blood away too.
Speaker A:He didn't fall away.
Speaker B:Then he turns around and he gives her a shot of something.
Speaker B:I'm like, oh, don't tell me she's about to be awake or something.
Speaker B:Then sure enough, the eyes pop back open.
Speaker B:They're in on it together.
Speaker B:They're plotting these things.
Speaker B:They're making it look like, you know, she was dead.
Speaker B:And now they're gonna make it look like the husband's gonna get killed by one of the other people.
Speaker B:And they're.
Speaker B:They even picked the blonde girl, Ali Larder.
Speaker B:They even picked her character to be the one to do it because she's shaking with the gun.
Speaker B:And sure enough, she tries.
Speaker B:She unloads her gun on him, right?
Speaker B:And you're thinking, oh my, this is going exactly as they planned it.
Speaker B:But the good doctor is no longer with him because she double crosses the good doctor.
Speaker A:Yeah, and the other thing that it does a good job of too, though.
Speaker A:So now, now when.
Speaker A:When that scene does happen too, it makes.
Speaker A:It's got you thinking like, okay, well, if they changed all the guest list, how did he get in?
Speaker A:Or did they just come up with this idea on the spot?
Speaker A:You know, like, because everybody else was out running around, Melissa was the first one that went missing.
Speaker A:So while the rest of them are down in the.
Speaker A:Every time it cuts back to the top.
Speaker A:Him.
Speaker A:Him.
Speaker A:Blackburn, and Evelyn are the ones there in the main area mixing drinks and having drinks.
Speaker A:So did they formulate the plan then?
Speaker A:And if so, where did he go?
Speaker A:So this movie has levels, man.
Speaker B:It does.
Speaker B:You.
Speaker B:You're thinking several times over about.
Speaker B:It'll make you stop and pause the movie just so you can stop and think to yourself, okay, what direction is this really going?
Speaker B:Who is.
Speaker B:Who is with who?
Speaker B:Who's doing what?
Speaker B:Like, whenever the house went on lockdown, Price went down there to where the guy is at the control room, and he's like.
Speaker B:The guy's like, I didn't do it.
Speaker A:He's like, you could have warned me about that.
Speaker A:But.
Speaker A:But everything else has been great.
Speaker B:He's like, I didn't do that.
Speaker B:It happened on its own either.
Speaker B:Well, no, she's responsible for this.
Speaker B:She's done it somehow.
Speaker B:Just like she changed that list of people, and I.
Speaker B:Like, she hacked my computer.
Speaker B:And then you're like.
Speaker B:And so everything gets confusing, and then it gets.
Speaker B:Well, I don't know if.
Speaker B:If we're probably giving away a little bit too much about the movie for people who might not have seen it and want to watch it, but it's still worth a watch.
Speaker B:And it's a.
Speaker B:You know, like, you're still gonna get the.
Speaker B:The jump scares out of it for sure, too.
Speaker B:I don't want to mention anything more about Price.
Speaker B:I'm gonna leave Price completely out of it the rest of the way because, yeah, you know what they're plotting.
Speaker B:It looks like.
Speaker B:You don't know.
Speaker B:I'm not gonna say whether or not they go through with it and try to kill them or not, but the house itself has been mentioned several times by Watson, Pritchett, talking about how the house is alive and it's evil.
Speaker B:It's in.
Speaker B:There's something living in.
Speaker B:In the bottom of it.
Speaker B:It's just that the house is an entity itself or something.
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker B:And that's what they get you.
Speaker B:That's what they give you.
Speaker B:At the end of it with the cgi, you get, like, what looks like the soul of the house or something is chasing them through the halls.
Speaker B:And everybody that is killed, you see their faces coming out of it and.
Speaker B:And saying something to the people they're chasing.
Speaker A:Yeah, we're all here.
Speaker A:Kind of like that.
Speaker A:What was the one.
Speaker A:It was around the same time.
Speaker A:It did better than this, actually, in the box.
Speaker B:Believe.
Speaker A:The haunting or something like that.
Speaker B:Yes.
Speaker B:The haunting was one of them.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Where they had Owen Wilson.
Speaker A:Owen Wilson was in the.
Speaker A:In the dog on big old fireplace.
Speaker A:And then that lion head came down, chopped his head off.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:But it's kind of like that how the house had retained the spirits.
Speaker A:But what I was going to say too is we used to have a place around here, Nuri Mill.
Speaker A:I've told you about it before.
Speaker A:I don't know if I brought it up on the podcast.
Speaker A:I think I have.
Speaker A:So I was in.
Speaker A:I got into photography pretty heavily there for a while.
Speaker A:I still got all my equipment, but I used to go to Nuri Mill and that room that he shoved her through and with when they released the spirit.
Speaker A:That room is like so much what that if you go down at the bottom of Nuri Mill into the basement, which why was I doing this and why was I doing it alone?
Speaker A:Like 12 year old Travis would have been like, what are you doing?
Speaker A:Stupid?
Speaker A:I know, dude.
Speaker A:I come from.
Speaker A:I come from being scared of the dark.
Speaker A:Sleeping with a.
Speaker A:With a light on until I was probably 15.
Speaker A:In the closet door open to.
Speaker A:Here I am exploring decrepit old rundown meals by myself.
Speaker A:So anyway, go in there and get to the back where the bathrooms are and there's like, I guess it used to be an old boiler room to the left.
Speaker A:And you walk in there, dude, that's the creepy.
Speaker A:That's one of the creepiest places I've ever been.
Speaker A:Because when you look around, there's like roots hanging from the ceiling, like dangling like right.
Speaker A:Dangling from the ceiling and like tree roots in here.
Speaker A:I'm like, dude, this is like the room that the demon was in and how this movie is exactly.
Speaker A:Immediately what I thought of when I shined a flashlight in that room.
Speaker A:I was like, oh my God, this is creepy.
Speaker B:I'm not gonna say a whole lot more about the way it goes with the cast.
Speaker B:We're gonna let people kind of wonder the rest of the way what happened with the rest of the cast and what you know.
Speaker A:Yeah, we've given a lot up, but at the same time, there's still so much that you'll still be like what?
Speaker B:So much more.
Speaker B:So much more.
Speaker B:And trust me, you will pause this movie and think to yourself and try to figure out what's going on before it gets there.
Speaker B:Let me ask you a couple of.
Speaker B:Throw a little couple questions at you here.
Speaker B:We talked about the critics, talked about the campiness to it and everything, right?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:So the film kind of mixes some campy performances with serious horror does that clash for you or does it kind of mix very well together?
Speaker B:To me, it makes it.
Speaker B:To me, it mixed well together.
Speaker A:I was about to be like, you go first.
Speaker A:Because I don't even know what they're talking about.
Speaker A:About the campiness, because I thought over.
Speaker B:The top performance or something, you know, like, for example.
Speaker A:Well, I mean, it was homage to Vincent Price and the time.
Speaker A:And the time too.
Speaker A:So, I mean, I felt like, you know, maybe he was maybe his character.
Speaker A:Maybe Stephen Price's character could have been a little campy at times.
Speaker A:And Pritchard.
Speaker A:Pritchard definitely was.
Speaker A:You know, I want it.
Speaker B:So you give it Melissa Mars character as well, too.
Speaker B:She was a little bit over the top with that camcorder, trying to push her way through, trying to find some new show to be a part of.
Speaker B:She's a supposed celebrity, former celebrity or something.
Speaker A:True, true.
Speaker A:So.
Speaker A:But no, it all it this, which is why it's one of my favorites, I think.
Speaker A:I felt like everything about this movie just blended and worked so well.
Speaker A:Even the little, the little, I guess, quasi love interest in between Eddie and.
Speaker A:I forgot her name now, but I've been throwing the names around so much like what I was talking about when we're trying to leave some of them.
Speaker A:We're trying to leave more of the movie out because I definitely want people to watch this one.
Speaker A:But when he was helping her up on the gurney to reach something, she turns around.
Speaker A:Sarah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:She turns out, goes, hey, bud, that's not.
Speaker A:Well, that's not procedure or whatever because when he grabbed her.
Speaker A:He grabbed her on the butt.
Speaker A:Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker A:Everything in it worked for me.
Speaker A:I mean, honestly, there's, I mean, it's.
Speaker B:Not that I dislike movies like horror movies like this.
Speaker B:I, I, I'm gonna tell you the ones that get to me that I don't like too much, but I did watch them because I don't like that.
Speaker B:Gosh, that creepy feeling the whole time that just, like I said, it runs up and down your back and everything and just keeps you on edge.
Speaker B:But movies like the Ring, for example, what was the other Japanese remake they did other than the Ring?
Speaker B:Michelle Geller.
Speaker B:Sarah Michelle's movie.
Speaker A:The Grudge.
Speaker B:The Grudge, that band.
Speaker A:I thought it was worse than the Ring.
Speaker B:The Grudge got me, man.
Speaker A:The Grudge got me mad.
Speaker B:That got me pretty good there.
Speaker A:That got me so good that a failing compressor in a refrigerator made me leave my house one day.
Speaker B:That noise, Right, the noise, yeah.
Speaker A:Yes, I know, because we.
Speaker A:And I'll tell you what else made it so bad?
Speaker A:Dude, the attic access was a little rectangular hole in the.
Speaker B:And you will not open it for nothing.
Speaker A:Yeah, and it was.
Speaker A:But it was in the ceiling of the closet just like the damn movie.
Speaker A:And I was standing in that closet when I heard that noise.
Speaker B:Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Speaker A:I had the closet door open and I heard that noise.
Speaker A:Nobody was home but me.
Speaker A:And I was like.
Speaker A:I left.
Speaker A:I called Tasha.
Speaker A:I said, you got me.
Speaker A:When you get home.
Speaker A:I couldn't figure out.
Speaker A:It took me two days to figure out what was making that noise.
Speaker B:So these movies like this House on haunted hill 13, ghosts, the haunting, you know, the.
Speaker B:The movies that give you these kind of horror feels.
Speaker B:Oh, and, you know, I know what you did last summer.
Speaker B:And Scream, they're more like the all right, scream.
Speaker B:And I know what you did this summer is not like this movie when it comes to horror.
Speaker B:This is gory.
Speaker B:Kind of hard, too.
Speaker A:It is, yeah.
Speaker B:In a sense.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:This would be a gorge.
Speaker B:I would say Night of the Demons is another example of the similar type movie.
Speaker B:Everything.
Speaker B:I like them and I'll watch them, but I will not re.
Speaker B:Watch him a lot or anything.
Speaker B:It has to be once every now and then, once every blue moon.
Speaker B:It's.
Speaker B:I.
Speaker B:It's too much of a scare thing for me.
Speaker B:I'll watch Freddy Krueger all day long.
Speaker B:I'll watch Friday the 13th.
Speaker B:I'll watch Halloween.
Speaker B:I'll watch Hellraiser.
Speaker B:I'll watch these things.
Speaker B:All right, I'll do that.
Speaker B:But these.
Speaker B:These really ones.
Speaker B:These really scary things where it makes you think you hear noise in your house.
Speaker B:Oh, was there something there?
Speaker A:Right?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:I don't know about.
Speaker B:So what do you think of the late 90s wave of horror remakes?
Speaker B:And this is what I'm building up to.
Speaker B:What do you think of the late 90s wave of horror remakes like House on Haunted Hill 13, Ghosts and the Haunting?
Speaker B:And did they bring anything new to the genre for you as far as horror?
Speaker A:To me.
Speaker A:To me, it was a golden renaissance.
Speaker A:I. I love seeing those things because I have been such a horror fan so long, and.
Speaker A:And I did know of the Vincent Price TV show or, you know, Vincent Price Presents.
Speaker A:I've seen stuff like that.
Speaker A:I've watched old Black and White, so, you know, Telltale Heart and stuff like that.
Speaker A:Edgar Allan Poe went back and watched Bella Lugosi and Lon Chaney movies.
Speaker A:So for me, like I said, you know, it's a golden renaissance to see these Stories.
Speaker A:Because the.
Speaker A:Excuse me.
Speaker A:A lot of these are also books too, that, you know, or.
Speaker A:Or kind of like R.L.
Speaker A:stein, like Quick, scary, scary reads or they come from, you know, the 50 chilling tales that we used to read as kids in the 80s.
Speaker A:You know, I know people don't even know what books are anymore, but.
Speaker B:But yeah, things that educated me when I was younger and yeah, we used.
Speaker A:To have to read.
Speaker A:Yeah, that was no pictures.
Speaker A:I loved it, man.
Speaker A:Because, you know, every.
Speaker A:Every so often we get this leap, you know, from the 80s, well, I'd say from the 70s through until we seem to be in a regression now.
Speaker A:But we get these leaps in special effects for movies.
Speaker A:And at the time, the way things were and as good as things were, to be able to see that old stuff come back and done.
Speaker A:Well, it was.
Speaker A:Yeah, it was like.
Speaker A:It's like a golden.
Speaker A:The late 90s.
Speaker A:It's two things.
Speaker A:It's a golden renaissance with movies like this.
Speaker A:And then when the teen horror came out, which we're definitely going to visit.
Speaker B:More.
Speaker A:Like Scream and I know what you did last summer and the faculty and these things was new and refreshing and it was like seeing, like seeing something like an R.L.
Speaker A:stein or something come to the.
Speaker A:To the big screen.
Speaker A:So the 90s for me is one of the greatest times for the horror genre.
Speaker B:As a horror fan, it's a definite change from the slasher films I mentioned earlier, a definite change from that.
Speaker B:It was a fun kind of scary feeling when it comes to like Scream and I know what you did last summer and Urban Legends and the Faculties to me is more of a sci fi horror thing.
Speaker A:I'd agree with that.
Speaker B:So that's a different kind of a feel for the horror.
Speaker B:And it's still cool.
Speaker B:Still cool.
Speaker A:And then we had stuff too, like Frighteners and Disturbing Behavior Disturbia, you know, we had a lot of things rolling out during this time too, which is funny that Robert Zimakis, Robert Zemeckis had his fingers in a ton of that.
Speaker A:So Robert was.
Speaker A:You could say he was a horror specialist.
Speaker A:You know, he did Death Becomes her, which was a really cool.
Speaker A:It's a comedy.
Speaker A:But doing that and then doing Trespass and then he did tell us from the Crypt Demon Knight.
Speaker A:He did the Frighteners, More Tales from the Crypt Bordello Blood.
Speaker A: s,: Speaker B:Yeah, I love Ordello Blood.
Speaker A:Yeah, you had.
Speaker A:You had demon knight in 95 and Bordella came out right after in 96.
Speaker A:And then he did.
Speaker A:He was actually.
Speaker A:He did 13 ghosts.
Speaker A:He did the ritual ghost ship Gothica, which is a.
Speaker A:Another creepy one with Halle Berry, if you hadn't seen it.
Speaker B:Isn't it funny?
Speaker A:The list just goes on.
Speaker A:House of Wax was great.
Speaker A:You know, he's.
Speaker A:He's done a bunch of them.
Speaker B:Isn't it funny?
Speaker B:Robert Zeckis brought all that to you, but he also brought you back to the future, right?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:Real Steel, Real Life, Rockham Sockum, robots.
Speaker A:He did.
Speaker A:He was the executive producer on Real Real Steel.
Speaker B:And like I said, you can't forget Forrest Gump.
Speaker A:Forrest Gun Forest.
Speaker A:Oh, it's good.
Speaker B:So.
Speaker A:I mean, your mama shouldn't care about your schooling, boy.
Speaker A:The Groundbreak, we call it groundbreaking.
Speaker A:I don't know if it was groundbreaking during the time with the CGI cartoon type things, but the Beowulf movie that had Angelina Jolie in it, which I love.
Speaker A:I love that movie too.
Speaker B:Speaking of cartoons, who Framed Roger Rabbit?
Speaker A:The Polar Express.
Speaker B:The man's brought some great movies for us.
Speaker B:Let's just say that.
Speaker B:No doubt, no doubt.
Speaker B:Well, I guess we're about to wrap this up.
Speaker B:Is there anything else you want to follow up on with the movie?
Speaker B:To.
Speaker B:To some.
Speaker A:One thing I thought was interesting.
Speaker A:Oh, no, actually, hold on.
Speaker B:I'm sorry, before you do that, before you.
Speaker B:Before you summon up for the as far as the end of movie, because I got one question to ask you.
Speaker A:Okay.
Speaker B:And I mean 100 serious.
Speaker B:If you had the choice, would you have stayed overnight in that asylum for $1 million.
Speaker A:Not knowing.
Speaker B:Not knowing what's going to happen or anything?
Speaker B:You don't know if anything really absolutely is haunted.
Speaker B:You don't know if anything.
Speaker B:If anybody's plotting to kill you when you're there anyway.
Speaker B:And so just they brought people there to just mess with people.
Speaker B:You don't know that you don't know the house is going to lock down or nothing.
Speaker B:But I mean you're.
Speaker B:You're there under the protection.
Speaker A:I would say 15 years ago.
Speaker A:15 to 20 years ago.
Speaker A:H, E double L. No.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker A:Nowadays I would say now.
Speaker A:Yeah, I just stayed and I would have hung out right there at the bar.
Speaker A:I wouldn't went nowhere.
Speaker A:I didn't have to get me right there in the middle or in the bathroom.
Speaker B:Because I'm still saying no way.
Speaker B:Jose.
Speaker B:There is a.
Speaker B:A former.
Speaker B:Well, there was an asylum in Louisville, Kentucky.
Speaker B:You've probably heard of it.
Speaker B:The Waverly Hills Sanatorium.
Speaker A:Yes.
Speaker B:Everybody says that place is haunted.
Speaker A:Oh yeah, man, they've done TV shows on Waverly, man.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:My ex wife's grand grandfather worked there in maintenance when it was.
Speaker A:Oh, you better not go.
Speaker B:And I there that she would tell me that he told stories about seeing things in there flying around and all kind of crazy stuff and everything before it finally shut down for good.
Speaker B:I'm like, there ain't no way in the world you get me to spend the night in that place for sure.
Speaker B:And they offered that to people, too, as a fun kind of thing.
Speaker B:They pick a safe part of the place there where it wasn't condemned or anything, you know?
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:And they.
Speaker B:Would you give you the chance to spend the night there to see if anything, you experience anything?
Speaker A:I say I would, but I don't know if I would because my youngest son begs me to go to an escape room and I tell him, no, we're not doing that.
Speaker A:He's like, why not?
Speaker A:I said, well, because daddy's been locked up and daddy watches a lot of scary movies.
Speaker B:Both.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker A:I'm not trying to get locked in.
Speaker A:Oh, I've seen Escape Room.
Speaker A:I don't know if you know that or not.
Speaker A:There's a lot of.
Speaker A:That whole escape room thing started with this.
Speaker A:With a horror movie.
Speaker B:Yeah.
Speaker B:So back to my.
Speaker B:What I started to say a moment ago, we're gonna go ahead and wrap things up here shortly.
Speaker B:But anything you have you want to sum this up with or not so.
Speaker A:Much to sum it up, I wanted to just add that since we're.
Speaker A:Since we're jockeying, we'll throw out some 90s lingo.
Speaker A:Since we're jocking family Famkey Jansen so hard.
Speaker A:Over the last few episodes, at around 18 minutes, she performed her own stunt when the glass ceiling breaks.
Speaker A:And it was extremely important that she remain where she was and very still.
Speaker A:Because even with her head, even with her sitting as still as she was, the shard that hit the table right in front of her face hit so hard that it bounced her head off the table.
Speaker A:And you can see it if you watch it real close.
Speaker A:Her head bounces when it is so ups to her for.
Speaker B:Dude, how much testicular fortitude to do that, how much trust you get to have in someone to do that.
Speaker B:Dude.
Speaker A:And I couldn't.
Speaker A:That wasn't sugar glass, because that thing's.
Speaker A:Whatever that was, whether it was glass or a piece of painted metal, it's stuck in that table.
Speaker B:Dude.
Speaker B:There's people in my life I've known, you know, 30, 40 years that aren't family that, you know, I You know, I would trust with a lot of things, but I wouldn't even trust them with that.
Speaker B:I be like, no, I don't know.
Speaker B:I don't know if your measurement's not off an inch or two or something.
Speaker B:You know, I mean, that's a, that's a lot to be off on a measurement.
Speaker B:But I mean, how do I know that you're just not, you really got this down path how you didn't mark the wrong spot of the table to put my head at or something or, you know.
Speaker B:No, I'll, I'll pass on that.
Speaker A:No doubt.
Speaker A:To sum the movie up, I would say that this is as far as haunted house movies go, it's my absolute favorite.
Speaker A:As far as scary movies go, it's definitely in my top five all time.
Speaker A:I absolutely love it.
Speaker A:It's, it's fun, it's funny, it's scary, it's, it's thoughtful, it's deep.
Speaker A:Like it gives you, it gives you cliffhangers.
Speaker A:And it leaves after you're done watching it.
Speaker A:You still, you, you have questions and you'll be analyzing it and you'll think about this movie for a long time.
Speaker A:I feel like everybody that I've talked to who's watched it has been like, yeah, that movie's great.
Speaker A:So I would say just go check it out.
Speaker A:Like, this is one of the, this is one of the, to me, one of the all time greats.
Speaker A:It deserves to be in the conversation anytime you're talking about the greatest horror movies of all time.
Speaker A:Honestly.
Speaker B:I, I did sets up there.
Speaker B:I agree with you because like I said to me, there's different, different types of horror.
Speaker B:I mean, the way we categorize them, I mean, I, I think like the ones I love the most are just the slasher horror movies.
Speaker B:But then we got, you know, there's, there's, there's true horror movies, the ones that just like, it's like this movie, the one that just sends the shivers up and down your spine.
Speaker B:That's a true horror movie to me.
Speaker A:Yeah.
Speaker B:When you can, when something can make you scared at one point and then let you relax for a second, then suddenly throw it back in your face again just that quick and make you want to jump through the, you know, I just jump through the roof.
Speaker B:Yeah, that's, that's a great horror movie.
Speaker B:And this does that in quite a few scenes.
Speaker B:And then it gives you just that overall, like I said, the, the, the, that chill on your spine there feel just, just by looking at something.
Speaker B:This, it's not even anything bad.
Speaker B:Hey, it's not coming at you, but you're just, like, staring at the guy we mentioned at the end of the hall.
Speaker B:She's just looking at him and the person's there, just that, you know, the head coughed over to the side or something.
Speaker A:Yeah, or Tay Diggs.
Speaker A:When Eddie.
Speaker A:When Eddie's walking around and.
Speaker A:And looking at her all funky and stopping, and then he falls in Nevada blood.
Speaker A:What it like, bats, Creepy.
Speaker A:And it's not even a ghost.
Speaker A:It's like, that's.
Speaker A:Or.
Speaker A:Well, we won't say what it is, but it's like.
Speaker A:Yeah, that's.
Speaker A:Yeah, the whole movie's got them kind of.
Speaker A:This is great.

Speaker A:What are you for Halloween this year, little boy.
