16
00:00:54.359 --> 00:01:06.719
desolate stretch of highway out in the
middle of nowhere that was weird. Yeah,

17
00:01:07.519 --> 00:01:12.640

reigned supreme. Two Friends Dare to Ask

00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:35.879
Do You Even? Movie? Hosted
by filmmaker Enrique Kuto and movie aficionado David

23
00:02:36.000 --> 00:02:52.120
de Noyer. Spoiler alert, Hey
my friends, and welcome back to Do

24
00:02:52.360 --> 00:02:55.879
You Even? Movie? I'm your
host Enrique Kuto here with my good buddy

25
00:02:57.960 --> 00:03:00.719
what was the nickname from the movie
I was gonna call? I can't remember

26
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:04.960
why. I can't remember now either. It was probably very offensive. But

27
00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:12.000
David Denoyer and this week we have
a very special treat for you. Yes,

28
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.599
we like to bring you guys deep
cuts from time to time, but

29
00:03:16.879 --> 00:03:21.159
this might be one of the deeper
cuts. It feels like one of the

30
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:23.560
deeper cuts we've brought. I just
love the fact that originally this episode was

31
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:28.800
gonna be point break and then somehow
it turned into this. Well, because

32
00:03:28.840 --> 00:03:31.879
if anybody needs to know anything about
me personally, it's that I have more

33
00:03:31.960 --> 00:03:38.680
of a emotional connection to Monster Man
than I do to point to point break.

34
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:42.000
Yes, so, and that's what
tonight's film is. It's two thousand

35
00:03:42.080 --> 00:03:46.520
and threes Monster Man. And I
know what you may possibly be thinking,

36
00:03:47.280 --> 00:03:50.919
what is Monster Man? Oh?
Yeah, I guarantee they are. This

37
00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:57.400
is a film that when I was
a teenager, a young teenager was constantly

38
00:03:57.680 --> 00:04:02.759
on Showtime and cable in general.
They had just introduced a few years earlier

39
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:10.439
the Showtime additional channels, Showtime two, Showtime Beyond, and they would play

40
00:04:10.560 --> 00:04:15.919
the same movies over and over on
the other channels. So I caught Monster

41
00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:20.439
Man a lot. But ironically,
as we were watching the film, which

42
00:04:20.519 --> 00:04:24.480
was probably the first time I'd seen
it in over ten years, I remember

43
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:29.319
nearly everything you really did know.
It's bizarre. I recently revisited this,

44
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.079
I think at Letterbox said it was
the beginning of the year. I watched

45
00:04:32.079 --> 00:04:35.160
it, and I did not have
as much recollection as you did, and

46
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:39.399
I just saw it. I watched
it as a teenager. Yeah, so

47
00:04:39.720 --> 00:04:41.839
no joke. I used to joke. I'd be like, I met I've

48
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:44.160
watched this twenty times. After watching
it, I was like shit. I

49
00:04:44.240 --> 00:04:47.360
bet I watched this twenty times.
Well as you're going to see when we

50
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:54.720
dive into it. It's a swelt
ninety minutes of ridiculous action. It's early

51
00:04:54.800 --> 00:04:59.920
two thousands as fuck. It's so
silly, so ridiculous, so great.

52
00:05:00.480 --> 00:05:05.759
Yeah, everything a growing body needs
absolute And what caused us to decide this

53
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:12.759
and why I'm introing it this way
is we never would have even considered talking

54
00:05:12.800 --> 00:05:15.399
about Monster Man on the show,
at least not now, not not.

55
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:16.759
I don't think it would have come
natural. I think I think it would

56
00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:20.240
have had to have been how it
happened. But we were watching what were

57
00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:25.920
we watching. We were getting ready
to dive into whatever his movie was previous

58
00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:30.600
that that that week. I want
to say, what American Summer. Yeah,

59
00:05:30.480 --> 00:05:33.600
copy. So when we had American
Summer ended, it was like,

60
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:36.639
here's some other stuff to watch and
I was like, Monster Man. We

61
00:05:36.800 --> 00:05:42.879
click on it, and not only
is it uncut Monster Man, but in

62
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:46.120
high definition. For the first time
ever, Monster Man has not been on

63
00:05:46.240 --> 00:05:49.759
Blu Ray. It was on VHS
and DVD Blu Ray in the States.

64
00:05:50.519 --> 00:05:54.079
In the United States because we did
find out one got I think it was

65
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:59.160
Germany got it, which Germany,
So it's worth saying if you have Amazon

66
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:02.040
Prime in the United States, oh
you, and maybe other places, but

67
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:06.399
definitely in the US, you can
pause this, sit down with a bowl

68
00:06:06.399 --> 00:06:13.199
of popcorn, and you can watch
Monster Man in high definition. And because

69
00:06:13.319 --> 00:06:17.000
we are this may be news to
everybody, but because we are film geeks,

70
00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:21.439
seeing a film that we had seen
a million times on a tube television,

71
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:29.199
basically seeing that in high death,
in wide screen with a great sound

72
00:06:29.279 --> 00:06:32.560
mix, it's like seeing the movie
again for the first time. And then

73
00:06:32.600 --> 00:06:35.519
doubles up with the fact that I
have a home cinema, so we watch

74
00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:40.959
it one hundred and twenty inch screen
which surrounds sound blaring, and it becomes

75
00:06:41.000 --> 00:06:44.439
a whole fun thing. We probably
mentioned before, like Dave will buy a

76
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:46.480
new Blu ray of a movie he's
always loved, and his first question is,

77
00:06:46.519 --> 00:06:49.959
like, you want to watch it
your place, because well, I

78
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:55.199
mean, that's that's why I made
the investment. So that all being said,

79
00:06:55.839 --> 00:07:00.639
we were titanicking this film, we
were watching it again for the first

80
00:07:00.639 --> 00:07:05.399
time, and it did not disappoint, No, not in the least.

81
00:07:05.519 --> 00:07:10.759
So I am thrilled to tell you
guys about a deep cut you may have

82
00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:14.720
never heard of, or maybe you
remember flipping through the channels past it.

83
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:17.000
Yeah, I know this played sci
fi at least I know that for a

84
00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:19.879
fact. Really yeah, I might
have. Yeah, because I remember at

85
00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:23.399
least being on there twice. So
you gotta remember I was. I was

86
00:07:23.439 --> 00:07:28.079
thrust into adulthood in five ye six, so I missed a lot. I

87
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:32.199
didn't have cable ever again after I
left the house. So but I remember

88
00:07:32.639 --> 00:07:38.160
so many nights like half asleep in
bed and flipping through and being like,

89
00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:41.480
oh man, Monster Man's on again, and like catching the last half or

90
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:45.079
the first half. I probably fell
asleep to that movie a dozen times.

91
00:07:45.199 --> 00:07:48.199
I mean I could see that.
I think Monster Man for me is just

92
00:07:48.279 --> 00:07:54.360
a absolute reminder of the good old
days of New Release Tuesday at Walmart,

93
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:58.399
where I would either get out of
school or even sometimes go before school to

94
00:07:58.560 --> 00:08:01.560
Walmart because every Tuesday would be the
new releases. So you'd have the stuff

95
00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:05.279
from Anchor Bay, you'd have the
stuff from lions Gate because this is a

96
00:08:05.319 --> 00:08:11.040
lions Gate release. Monster Man is
well before lions Gate was the lions Gate

97
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:13.759
we know we know now, and
lions Gate was a force on home video

98
00:08:13.879 --> 00:08:20.000
video. Dead clowns. Remember dead
clowns. I do remember six Serial Insane

99
00:08:20.000 --> 00:08:22.920
clown Killers. I remember that one. Yeah. A lot of the younger

100
00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:28.439
listeners only know lions Gate from when
they burst into theatrical distribution. I believe

101
00:08:28.480 --> 00:08:33.240
their biggest film and theatrical to start
them off was Fahrenheit nine nine. Yeah,

102
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:39.240
and I think I want to say
Devil's Rejects got some notoriety for how

103
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:41.759
for how big of a release it
was for them too. Yeah, well,

104
00:08:41.879 --> 00:08:45.240
because that was originally universal then they
ditched it. Yeah, So lions

105
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:48.759
Gate was starting to make a play. But as a as a person who

106
00:08:48.799 --> 00:08:52.879
was working in film, the very
basics of working, I was a teenager.

107
00:08:54.039 --> 00:08:56.879
I was trying to get in.
It was a very big deal.

108
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:00.000
Like everybody's dream was like, I'm
gonna make a movie in Lion's Gate.

109
00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:03.039
It's gonna take it. Because they
had they would place it everywhere, beyond

110
00:09:03.080 --> 00:09:05.039
Cable. It'd be in Blockbuster,
be in Hollywood, video would be everywhere.

111
00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:11.120
Yeah, and that was where any
movie that was not quite full blown

112
00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:15.919
Hollywood was at that point quite tempo, not quite my fucking tempo, but

113
00:09:15.919 --> 00:09:20.360
but for real because before that,
we had you know, Vid Mark,

114
00:09:20.840 --> 00:09:26.960
we had Live Entertainment, which eventually
got bought up by Vidmark Artisan, which

115
00:09:26.000 --> 00:09:28.679
bought up all their catalogs after they
made all that money off of Blair Witch

116
00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:33.519
Project. You had all of these
different companies and a lot of them didn't

117
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:37.840
survive the nineties. So Lionsgate was
kind of the up and comer at that

118
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:41.480
point, and they were releasing like
the bigger stuff because this is not a

119
00:09:41.559 --> 00:09:45.559
little, tiny B movie, but
it cost a couple million dollars, shot

120
00:09:45.559 --> 00:09:50.559
on thirty five millimeter, incredible truck
stunts, but a very small cast,

121
00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:56.759
very controlled movie. Yeah, and
I I could not believe how much it

122
00:09:56.799 --> 00:10:01.080
held up. And my favorite thing, if I had to one last time

123
00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:03.200
before we talk about it, before
we just tell you about the whole movie.

124
00:10:03.320 --> 00:10:07.799
Yeah. You know how when you
watch Entourage, you're like, wow,

125
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:11.720
this is like a time capsule of
Maxim Magazine America. Yeah, this

126
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:18.159
movie is as well if you were
a loser, Yeah, during the Maxim

127
00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:24.639
magazine era. I see myself because
it has that that butch like bro bro

128
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:28.879
Bro, but also like the nerdy
jokes. Oh yeah, the really like

129
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:35.799
the the the impossibility of getting laid
jokes, the fart humor. It's it's

130
00:10:35.919 --> 00:10:41.480
really like a perfect time capsule of
being a dweep. I feel like the

131
00:10:41.519 --> 00:10:43.840
only thing it lacks is new metal. It doesn't have enough new The trailer

132
00:10:43.879 --> 00:10:46.399
has new metal. Well, the
movie has almost no song. No,

133
00:10:46.440 --> 00:10:50.679
I mean it's almost all the score, and the score is great, but

134
00:10:50.960 --> 00:10:54.399
it's definitely not the kind of score
you would expect for this film. And

135
00:10:54.440 --> 00:10:58.600
I think this film caught the upswing
when Torture Porn was was first hitting.

136
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:03.960
Yeah, it really got that got
grabbed by that yeah era, because we

137
00:11:03.039 --> 00:11:07.919
had Saw and we had uh hostele
and I mean Serbian film at that point

138
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:13.679
too. Wow, that's that old. Wow. Wow, Serbian film's old

139
00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:18.600
enough to well, let's let's move
on. Good. So we'll stand if

140
00:11:18.600 --> 00:11:22.240
you're listening, that jokes for you. That one's for you, brother,

141
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.399
that one's for you. So I
wanted to give it a proper intro because

142
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:31.679
it's not often that I plead with
our audience to watch a film. Absolutely,

143
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:35.879
but I know you'll like it.
Yeah, So we are talking about

144
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:39.320
Monster Man from two thousand and three, one hour and thirty five minutes,

145
00:11:39.440 --> 00:11:43.879
rated R for strong horror, violence
and gore, language and some sexuality.

146
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:46.720
Yes, there is language. In
the film It's English. It is Yes,

147
00:11:46.759 --> 00:11:48.639
it is English. So our director
and writer on the film is Michael

148
00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:52.799
Davis. And he gets his start
in nineteen ninety two as a writer and

149
00:11:52.799 --> 00:11:56.720
director on The Amazing Live Sea Monkeys. He does writing on pre Hysteria in

150
00:11:56.799 --> 00:12:03.000
nineteen ninety three, the Albert Band
directed Charlie Band Miniature Dinosaurs. Yes,

151
00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:07.919

for nixt Nix Nix. I think it's

166
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:01.759
like a Nixon documentary from what I
could tell from Okay. So then moving

167
00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:05.279
down to our cinematographer is Matthew Irving. He gets his start at cinematographer in

168
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:09.360

174

Club Woodstock, Sins of Youth,
Outlaws and Angels, arm Response, Blood

178
00:13:43.000 --> 00:13:46.960
Brother, Psycho Escort in twenty twenty. Oh is that a life lifetime?

179
00:13:48.000 --> 00:13:50.919
That's an all that movie that I
have watched. Yes, he does Space

180
00:13:50.960 --> 00:13:52.919
Between in twenty twenty one, and
Sit his dead End ser recently in twenty

181
00:13:52.919 --> 00:13:56.200
twenty three. Now, the one
thing I did, I realized I left

182
00:13:56.200 --> 00:13:58.240
out here. Oh no, there
it is. So in two thousand and

183
00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:01.480
five he does Waiting. Two thousand
and seven he does Waitress, the Carrie

184
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:03.519
Russell movie. Okay, so he
does two restaurant movies back, yeah,

185
00:14:03.559 --> 00:14:07.559
back to back. Yeah. I
mean he knew how to photograph those little

186
00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:09.759
red cups we left from back in
the day. And Space Between actually was

187
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.720
a was a big release, I
think twenty twenty one. It was was

188
00:14:13.759 --> 00:14:16.960
one of those love stories that came
like team love stories that came out.

189
00:14:16.039 --> 00:14:20.200
Okay, I can't remember the exact
the synopsis of it, but I mean

190
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.159
that was a big one that he
did after doing a bunch of B movies.

191
00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:26.759
So the most part is Armed Response
and Outlaws and Angels were like straight

192
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:28.879
to videos. Armed Response always confuses
me because I think of the Federal and

193
00:14:28.960 --> 00:14:33.000
Rangel. There's so many titles of
Armed Response, so many movies have that

194
00:14:33.080 --> 00:14:35.440
name. So moving down to her
IMDb synopsis, it says two guys and

195
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.840
a female hitchhiker are terrorized by a
monstrous looking man driving a giant monster truck.

196
00:14:41.120 --> 00:14:45.480
I mean, you know what I
mean, You got your potatoes?

197
00:14:45.480 --> 00:14:48.159
What more do you fucking want?
My synopsis? Yeah, you're gonna try

198
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:50.960
and improve that. I mean,
on a cross country road trip, two

199
00:14:50.960 --> 00:14:54.720
friends cross paths with a monster truck
driving psychopath who takes limbs from his victims

200
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:56.600
but leaves them alive. You're gonna
leave the girl out? Huh, I'd

201
00:14:56.600 --> 00:15:05.440
be rude. She comes in halfway. Oh my god, do you even?

202
00:15:05.559 --> 00:15:16.679
Movie? Will be right back.
Welcome back to do you even?

203
00:15:16.799 --> 00:15:22.559
Movie? So moving down to our
cast, we have Eric Jungman who plays

204
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.600
Adam in this. He gets his
start in nineteen ninety eight on the Faculty

two thousand even Stevens Winning London, the

208
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:41.519
Mary Kate and Ashley movie. Ah
yes. Then he does what I know

209
00:15:41.559 --> 00:15:45.240
him most from not another teen movie
in two thousand and one. He plays

210
00:15:45.320 --> 00:15:46.919
Ricky Oh well, and he was
on a million commercials. Oh yeah,

211
00:15:46.960 --> 00:15:50.679

00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:07.320

doing on Hulu for a little bit.

217

directed one of them. Oh nice, okay, cool. Moving on down,

we have Justin Uric who plays Harley

220
00:16:17.360 --> 00:16:21.240

back to back, baby, That is

225
00:16:36.080 --> 00:16:41.679
funny for those who don't know.
Silk Stockings was the was the only cable

226
00:16:41.799 --> 00:16:45.879
the basic cable erotic thriller TV series. Yeah, and I remember it only

227
00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:48.799
because when I was done watching whatever
I was watching on USA, you'd hear

228
00:16:48.840 --> 00:16:52.960
the saxophone. Oh yeah, and
you know it was time. It was

229
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:56.440
tough for Silk Stockings. So that
in ninety eight he appears on Beyond Belief

230
00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:00.639

ten he kind of vanished, Yeah, after a kind of falls off.

243
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:55.480
He had a very long career of
being the douchey young guy in nearly every

244
00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:57.599
everything. Yeah. I remember loving
him in Serial Killing one oh one,

245
00:17:57.640 --> 00:18:02.160
which she was with Lisa Lowe in
that act and Lisa Lobe, who was

246
00:18:02.240 --> 00:18:04.519
like damn near forty in it but
looked like she was still in high school.

247
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:08.559
She actually just got featured on the
part two of that ninety show.

248
00:18:08.599 --> 00:18:11.400
They have a whole Lisa Lobe episode. That's funny. Yeah, it's pretty

249
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:15.079
great. But I remember loving that
movie. I remember Horror one oh one.

250
00:18:15.119 --> 00:18:18.920
I really liked that one too.
Those were lions Gate releases or not.

251
00:18:18.000 --> 00:18:22.559
Lion's Aker bay A, Lisa's on
DVD. He was a lot of

252
00:18:22.559 --> 00:18:26.680
funny. He was kind of likable
and silly in those movies. He was

253
00:18:26.680 --> 00:18:30.640
also very clean cut, and I
didn't realize that some of those were after

254
00:18:30.720 --> 00:18:33.400
he'd done Monster Man, because I
remember watching Monster Man and going, wait,

255
00:18:33.680 --> 00:18:37.079
the clean cut, like like edgy
kid is now and this is like

256
00:18:37.119 --> 00:18:42.000
the fat bearded best friend. Okay, good, he did an amazing job.

257
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:45.079
Yeah, so, but I was
always bummed that he kind of vanished,

258
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:48.160
and I guess it was twenty ten. He just he just stopped acting,

259
00:18:48.200 --> 00:18:52.680
stopped acting. So then rounding us

00:21:32.720 --> 00:21:36.680
and the DVD from Lionsgate is still
pretty accessible too. Yeah. He

302
00:21:36.839 --> 00:21:38.279
might pay a little bit more than
you'd expect for a DVD, but not

303
00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:42.359
much, not much. So what
was your first time watching Monster Man?

304
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:49.240
At some point in my teenage bedroom, Showtime broadcast it directly into my room.

305
00:21:49.400 --> 00:21:53.880
Yeah, and this was when the
Internet wasn't what it is today.

306
00:21:55.079 --> 00:21:59.519
You had it, but you would. You would if you saw a movie

307
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.000
on cable, a horror movie,
you would be like, oh, I

308
00:22:03.039 --> 00:22:07.319
should see if it's in Fango.
Yeah, and if I remember correctly,

309
00:22:07.319 --> 00:22:12.920
there was a Fango cover. I'm
almost certain. So Dave's gonna check my

310
00:22:14.119 --> 00:22:17.400
research. You keep going, Yeah, I thought you did research before the

311
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:22.359
show, but I was mistaken.
I'm almost certain there's a Monster Man cover

312
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:26.319
for Fangoria magazine. Let's find out. Let's see there's Hell Raiser, hollow

313
00:22:26.359 --> 00:22:30.079
Man, Prince of Dark Mouse.
Oh maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, I

314
00:22:30.119 --> 00:22:33.519
mean it probably was featured in there, but I don't know if it would

315
00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:36.519
have got the cover. I could
have sworn they put the Monster Man on

316
00:22:36.559 --> 00:22:41.880
the cover, but I couldn't be
wrong. Yeah. Anyway, enough of

317
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:45.640
me hallucinating but no, So I
I legitimately must have seen the movie more

318
00:22:45.680 --> 00:22:52.319
than ten times, because even decades
later, I was remembering so much of

319
00:22:52.359 --> 00:22:56.359
the goddamn movie. Yeah, and
it was very influential on me because I

320
00:22:56.400 --> 00:23:02.400
had never up to that point seen
like what was basically a teen road trip

321
00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:08.640
movie turned into an ultraviolent gorefest.
Yeah, and it is an ultra violent

322
00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:15.519
and I'm not a constant celebrator of
ultraviolent gorefest, but this, I mean,

323
00:23:15.519 --> 00:23:18.839
if you're if you, you can't
do much better if you want an

324
00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:22.799
ultraviolent gorefest in Monster Man. So
that that is how I saw it.

325
00:23:23.200 --> 00:23:26.359
Uh. And then for years the
only person I knew who ever talked about

326
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:30.119
it was Andrew, my buddy Andrew
Sheir. He was the only person who

327
00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:33.119
knew Monster Man. Everybody else seemed
to just memory hole it, which I

328
00:23:33.119 --> 00:23:36.279
mean, does happen with these movies
where they just come out on tape,

329
00:23:36.279 --> 00:23:37.640
they come out on DVD, they
hit cable for a minute, and then

330
00:23:37.640 --> 00:23:41.880
they just fuck off. That's a
similar thing happened with King of the Ants,

331
00:23:42.279 --> 00:23:48.039
the first Asylum movie. The people
who eventually would bring you Shark Nadaato.

332
00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:51.480
It was their first feature film.
It had George went in and it

333
00:23:51.480 --> 00:23:53.839
was directed by Stuart Gordon. That
was another one that when I when I

334
00:23:53.920 --> 00:23:56.759
finally wanted to sit down and watch
it again, I had to buy the

335
00:23:56.799 --> 00:24:00.039
DVD. Yeah, I remember that. So, but that's another movie where

336
00:24:00.039 --> 00:24:02.920
I'm like, I keep telling people, like, if you get a hold

337
00:24:02.960 --> 00:24:06.279
of that movie, you won't believe
how good it is. Yeah. So

338
00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:10.519
Monster Man, Yeah, I've loved
it for a very long time. I

339
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:14.759
feel like it's been spiritually with me
for a very long time. Yeah.

340
00:24:14.839 --> 00:24:17.960
But the fact that when one of
the grossest scenes was about to happen,

341
00:24:18.559 --> 00:24:21.279
like literally cut to the interior of
the room and I went, oh,

342
00:24:21.400 --> 00:24:25.599
God, like I knew what was
everything? It was so weird. Yeah,

343
00:24:25.799 --> 00:24:27.640
so weird. I really must have
watched it twenty sometimes. Yeah,

344
00:24:27.680 --> 00:24:32.200
no, what about you did?
So Monster Man was a later discovery for

345
00:24:32.240 --> 00:24:33.519
me. So the movie, like
I said, came out in two thousand

346
00:24:33.519 --> 00:24:37.599
and three. I probably found it
right about two thousand and nine because I

347
00:24:37.599 --> 00:24:41.559
can pinpoint it specifically because I was
working at a round About Books, the

348
00:24:41.559 --> 00:24:45.359
local bookstore in my town, and
we had a we had a generous DVD

349
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:47.480
section back then. I mean they
still do now too, but like we

350
00:24:47.599 --> 00:24:51.000
would, we would have people bring
stuff in. I've gotten a lot of

351
00:24:51.000 --> 00:24:52.279
cool things from that store. And
one of the titles that came in one

352
00:24:52.319 --> 00:24:56.440
day was Monster Man, and I
picked it up and I read the rating

353
00:24:56.559 --> 00:24:59.200
and I was this is in my
edge Lord period. So two thousand and

354
00:24:59.319 --> 00:25:04.039
nine, yesterday, yes to yesterday, but this is my Edgeling period.

355
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:10.599
So like I would have been a
sophomore in high school and I was into

356
00:25:11.480 --> 00:25:14.039
the violent horror movies. Give me, give me the gore, give me

357
00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:15.400
the violence, give me the Slashers. That's what I was after a lot.

358
00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:18.200
Yeah, and I said, bro
a lot. I would go to

359
00:25:18.279 --> 00:25:22.039
Walmart on new release day and basically
walk out with any Anchor Bay or Lionsgate

360
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:26.519
title if it fit something that looked
like I might like. So I took

361
00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:30.480
Monster Man home, watched it,
and I remember really enjoying it. But

362
00:25:30.559 --> 00:25:33.880
the reason that I can pinpoint the
exact time of it is because it reminded

363
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:37.000
me a lot of the Hills run
Red from two thousand and nine. Okay,

364
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:40.240
yeah, yeah, And so that
was one of the last memories I

365
00:25:40.279 --> 00:25:42.119
have with it. So I always
liked the movie, and I'd only seen

366
00:25:42.160 --> 00:25:45.960
it like maybe another time or so, like on TV or whatnot, after

367
00:25:45.039 --> 00:25:48.240
I had kept my DVD, still
have it to this day. And it

368
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.039
wasn't until about a like I said, about the beginning of this year,

369
00:25:52.039 --> 00:25:53.720
that I revisited it and I had
a great time with it. But then

370
00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:56.799
even more so just this time now, I had even more of a better

371
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:02.200
time with it. It's such a
time capsule of early two thousand's extreme horror.

372
00:26:02.599 --> 00:26:07.240
Oh yeah. But but it must
have been luck because it's so early

373
00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:11.440
in that in that time period,
I can't imagine that he must have had

374
00:26:11.440 --> 00:26:15.359
a script. The director must have
had that screenplay sitting around, Yeah,

375
00:26:15.359 --> 00:26:17.960
and somebody was like, now's the
time to make that. Yeah, Like,

376
00:26:18.039 --> 00:26:21.000
let's go make that right now,
make it right now, because it's

377
00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:23.400
very early. I mean, when
did Saw come out? Saw would have

378
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:30.039
been two thousand, two dozen three? Was it three or four? I

379
00:26:30.079 --> 00:26:33.400
think it's two? Wow? Could
you learn how to type? Two thousand

380
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:37.599
and four? Okay, so it
was pre Saw. Yeah, So that's

381
00:26:37.599 --> 00:26:40.559
saying something. Yeah, because Saw
is two thousand and four, Saw two

382
00:26:40.599 --> 00:26:41.720
two thousand and five, and then
basically from that point on, it's one

383
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:45.519
every year. Yeah, and and
that's that's kind of that was the beginning

384
00:26:45.519 --> 00:26:49.119
of what we call the torture porn, yeah, which was which was basically

385
00:26:49.119 --> 00:26:53.880
an escapism era from After nine to
eleven eleven. Yeah, so Monster Man

386
00:26:53.960 --> 00:26:59.039
was kind of like perfect timing.
Yeah, Oh, it absolutely was.

387
00:26:59.559 --> 00:27:02.920
So. I think what I honestly
loved about it most though, was it

388
00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:07.319
was just the simple It had a
simple setting of any of any horror film

389
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:08.480
that you'd want, where it's like, here's your here's your people. They're

390
00:27:08.519 --> 00:27:11.920
on a road trip, here's the
woods. Everything's unpredictable, and there's this

391
00:27:12.039 --> 00:27:17.039
giant monster in this giant monster truck. Like, I mean, what more

392
00:27:17.079 --> 00:27:19.200
couldn't you like? I just remember
the first time I was watching it.

393
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:26.400
I remember it because I feel so
old. I remember we were talking about

394
00:27:26.400 --> 00:27:32.000
this before the show, how exciting
it was when you're when you're remote for

395
00:27:32.079 --> 00:27:36.119
the TV, could pull up a
thingy and tell you what was currently playing.

396
00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:40.279
Yeah, and you could go through
I when it started you could only

397
00:27:40.319 --> 00:27:42.559
go about eight hours into the future. Oh my gosh. So if you

398
00:27:42.599 --> 00:27:45.759
wanted to set a reminder, because
this was before DVR, unless you were

399
00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:49.440
paying out the ass for TiVo,
So if you wanted a reminder you might

400
00:27:49.480 --> 00:27:53.000
be able to get twelve hours ahead
on some channels. But I remember seeing

401
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:56.680
the title Monster Man and being like, hell yeah, brother, So I

402
00:27:57.039 --> 00:28:00.920
watch it and when this semi this
monster truck just starts chasing after them,

403
00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:06.559
like what the hell is this?
Also, I think it might have been

404
00:28:06.640 --> 00:28:08.799
it might have ended up on Showtime
on Demand. I might have years later

405
00:28:08.839 --> 00:28:12.920
watched it multiple times on there as
well. Astely, Yeah, it was.

406
00:28:12.960 --> 00:28:17.720
It was a cable mainstay, but
it definitely the the monster truck scenes

407
00:28:17.720 --> 00:28:22.160
definitely left a bit of a wtfah
that kind of pulled you in. And

408
00:28:22.200 --> 00:28:26.000
the idea that the monster truck was
used to capture people to then torture and

409
00:28:26.119 --> 00:28:30.519
experiment on them. There's just so
much going on. Oh there's so much,

410
00:28:30.599 --> 00:28:33.640
so much and and and it's all
it's all just gooey, sticky fun.

411
00:28:33.759 --> 00:28:37.039
Well, and probably why I latched
onto it so hard was because at

412
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:41.039
this point in my in my movie
fandom, I was really really into Breakdown.

413
00:28:41.079 --> 00:28:47.000
Because Breakdown I caught on USA one
day, Like I was the Russell.

414
00:28:47.799 --> 00:28:49.440
I just caught that on USA one
day, and I remember just sitting

415
00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:52.119
there the entire time in awe of
just how great. This movie was,

416
00:28:52.160 --> 00:28:55.200
so I think that's also why I
resonated with it. I was like,

417
00:28:55.200 --> 00:28:59.599
Oh, it's like a horror version
of Breakdown. Yeah, Breakdown so charming.

418
00:29:00.160 --> 00:29:02.359
Yeah yeah. Yeah. When you
were a kid, did you go

419
00:29:02.400 --> 00:29:04.440
on a lot of road trips?
Uh? Fair amount? More so the

420
00:29:04.519 --> 00:29:08.319
road trips that I had were largely
with Dad, for like our Michigan trip

421
00:29:08.359 --> 00:29:12.160
and whatnot. And usually when we
would go to Florida as a family,

422
00:29:12.680 --> 00:29:15.400
we would stick to seven, we
would stick to to the Highway and whatnot.

423
00:29:15.400 --> 00:29:18.640
But there were times we would take
back roads out because it was just

424
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:22.799
fun to I mean, David,
literally, Interstate seventy five, the closest

425
00:29:22.799 --> 00:29:26.759
interstate to where we're sitting right now, Yeah, goes all the way to

426
00:29:26.759 --> 00:29:29.400
Florida, all the way to Florida. So like I remember, I used

427
00:29:29.400 --> 00:29:32.039
to joke when I go to Georgia
and it'd be like, get on Interstate

428
00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:34.440
seventy five, four four hundred and
eighty five miles. Yeah, it just

429
00:29:34.960 --> 00:29:40.279
that's just the way it goes.
So I was just curious because I was

430
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:41.599
road tripping all the time when I
was a kid, because I had at

431
00:29:41.680 --> 00:29:45.200
least twice a year I had to
go to New Hampshire. Yeah, which

432
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:48.680
is about fourteen hours, and it
kind of gave me an affinity for the

433
00:29:48.759 --> 00:29:52.119
road. And then movies that take
place on the road. Yeah, I

434
00:29:52.119 --> 00:29:56.119
would also have an affinity for because
there's something about when you're on the road,

435
00:29:56.160 --> 00:30:00.119
when you're on the highway, especially
when you're somewhere you've never been and

436
00:30:00.920 --> 00:30:03.680
you don't know what's coming up next. Yeah, there's that fun game where

437
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:07.079
it's like your gas tank is getting
low and you don't stop at that place.

438
00:30:07.559 --> 00:30:11.880
Before smartphones, you didn't know when
the next one was ci risk you

439
00:30:11.920 --> 00:30:15.640
would guess. Yeah, you would
hope that you that you were right.

440
00:30:17.079 --> 00:30:18.839
Same thing with your bladder, you
would hope that you hope, you'd hope

441
00:30:18.880 --> 00:30:21.839
that there would be another place to
pee. But of course, you know,

442
00:30:22.079 --> 00:30:22.839
you could pee in a field,
but that field the ain't gonna have

443
00:30:22.880 --> 00:30:26.640
any gas at so but no,
So I was just curious about if you

444
00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:30.880
went on a lot of road trips, because road trip movies are fun as

445
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:34.720
hell. Oh yeah, they absolutely
are. Do You Even? Movie will

446
00:30:34.759 --> 00:30:49.599
be right back, welcome back to
Do You Even? Movie? So you're

447
00:30:49.599 --> 00:30:53.240
ready get into Monster Man? Perhaps, All right, well let's break down

448
00:30:53.240 --> 00:30:56.839
Monster Man. So we open with
a shot of a guy who finds himself

449
00:30:56.839 --> 00:31:00.319
an advice and he's absolutely terrified.
Guys, guys, not a figurative vice,

450
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:04.000
No, any advice literally in a
steel vice. Yes, head is

451
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:07.039
in a vice, and we see
a gloved hand tightening it. He's screaming,

452
00:31:07.319 --> 00:31:10.839
and suddenly the vice tightens, and
we get the impression that the man

453
00:31:10.920 --> 00:31:15.119
is dead. The impression, the
impression by his head as we hear the

454
00:31:15.160 --> 00:31:18.000
crunch. Yeah, yeah, you
know, the impression. We get the

455
00:31:18.039 --> 00:31:22.160
idea that he might have died for
the record, when we get to the

456
00:31:22.440 --> 00:31:26.039
twist of the movie, like,
it's possible he is still alive. Okay,

457
00:31:26.079 --> 00:31:29.200
that's fair point. I'll give you
that one. So we meet Adam

458
00:31:29.359 --> 00:31:33.720
driving across country in his nineteen seventy
Chevrolet and he is spooted by his buddy

459
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:36.880
in the backseat. But we don't
know it's his buddy because his buddy rises

460
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:40.400
out of the backseat wearing a white
mask and like just starts reaching for him

461
00:31:41.160 --> 00:31:42.640
a knife. Yeah, and a
knife if you can pretty much tell his

462
00:31:42.640 --> 00:31:45.599
fake right away. Yeah, he
pulls it. He pulls a Shelley from

463
00:31:45.599 --> 00:31:48.480
prior thirteen, Part three. My
Whole World's in this back, so he

464
00:31:48.759 --> 00:31:52.200
gets him to pull off to the
side and he's still got the mask on,

465
00:31:52.240 --> 00:31:53.480
and that's when he reveals that it's
Harley. And we find out that

466
00:31:53.519 --> 00:31:57.920
Adam is going across country because he's
going to try to stop Betty Ann his

467
00:31:57.960 --> 00:32:00.759
ex girlfriend or the girl he loved
it from getting married because he wants to

468
00:32:00.759 --> 00:32:07.079
tell her how he feels gay.
So that's when Harley gets back in the

469
00:32:07.079 --> 00:32:08.279
car with him, and or he
tries to get back to the car,

470
00:32:08.279 --> 00:32:12.240
Adam pushes him out of the way, throws him to the side. Harley

471
00:32:12.279 --> 00:32:14.720
has to getting the spare key from
his hideky, and they end up resuming

472
00:32:14.759 --> 00:32:15.960
on the road and that's when you
know, he tells him about his plan

473
00:32:16.039 --> 00:32:20.480
to tell Betty and how he feels
and Harley is not in for this at

474
00:32:20.480 --> 00:32:22.319
all. One of the things I
like is they don't actually really lean into

475
00:32:22.400 --> 00:32:25.480
why he hates Harley the initial time. Yeah, it's just he's like,

476
00:32:25.519 --> 00:32:30.720
I told you we'd never be friends
again. And he's about to leave Harley

477
00:32:30.759 --> 00:32:32.839
on the side of the road in
the desert. Yeah, Like that's how

478
00:32:32.880 --> 00:32:36.359
mad he is. But of course
Harley finds his hide key and gets back

479
00:32:36.400 --> 00:32:39.400
into the car. Yeah. So, but there's already this dichotomy of like

480
00:32:39.519 --> 00:32:44.720
a weary friendship. Yeah, it's
very clear that Harley is the outgoing,

481
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:47.480
loud and boisterous friend. He is. He is the two thousand's friend.

482
00:32:47.599 --> 00:32:50.880
Well, I mean, but our
main character, what was his name again,

483
00:32:51.119 --> 00:32:54.480
Adam Adam Adam is literally the actor
who played the nerd on everything.

484
00:32:54.559 --> 00:32:58.880
Yeah, I mean, he's literally
like he was the nerdy son in every

485
00:32:58.920 --> 00:33:02.200
TV commercial. He was on every
sitcom as like a side character. So

486
00:33:04.079 --> 00:33:09.240
these guys are like a perfect example
of that two thousands teen dichotomy. Well,

487
00:33:09.319 --> 00:33:13.200
he played he plays the ducky role
in another teen movies. So I

488
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:15.839
mean, yeah, they're they're absolutely
type casts. Oh my god, no,

489
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:22.000
he I mean absolutely. It's it's
so stereotypical it's almost not fun,

490
00:33:22.079 --> 00:33:24.880
except that he is actually a pretty
good actor. He's a good actor.

491
00:33:24.960 --> 00:33:28.519
Yeah, no, he actually does
a really good job. So Harley's going

492
00:33:28.559 --> 00:33:30.720
through his wallet, pulls out a
picture and he laughs because he still has

493
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:34.039
Betty Ant's picture, and not only
does he still have it, but it's

494
00:33:34.039 --> 00:33:37.559
also laminated. I love it.
He goes, this is laminated. And

495
00:33:37.559 --> 00:33:43.319
there's so many moments in the movie
where you get the joke. But then

496
00:33:43.359 --> 00:33:46.599
there's little extra they I don't know
if they are, but they feel improvised

497
00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:49.599
moments yeah, where he's just like, oh my god, you still have

498
00:33:49.599 --> 00:33:52.759
a picture where your wallet it's laminated. He's like, why would you laminate

499
00:33:52.799 --> 00:33:57.720
it? Like it's lots of stuff
like that. Because this leads to him

500
00:33:57.720 --> 00:34:00.079
calling him a woosie. And then
we have a scene where Harley gets his

501
00:34:00.079 --> 00:34:05.039
head basically vised himself in Adam's car
window as he's driving down the road because

502
00:34:05.039 --> 00:34:07.719
he's pushing the lever, which which
I love that sequence because it shows that

503
00:34:07.719 --> 00:34:12.000
Adam has a mean street because yeah, well because he like he gets stuck

504
00:34:12.039 --> 00:34:14.400
in the window and is crushing his
head and he's like, Sam, not

505
00:34:14.440 --> 00:34:16.840
a woosey, and he's like,
you're a total Wussie. He pushes it

506
00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:22.039
again until he's like actually crushing his
throat and he's like and just as this

507
00:34:22.119 --> 00:34:28.559
happens, a blackhearse with tinted window
drives alongside them and it holds their position

508
00:34:28.719 --> 00:34:30.360
next to them for like a good
like solid minute. Yeah it paces them.

509
00:34:30.519 --> 00:34:32.719
Yeah, yeah, it pulls up
right next to them, driving in

510
00:34:32.760 --> 00:34:36.920
the wrong side of the highway.
And I love this because we're all laughing

511
00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:42.119
and chuckling at like at Harley being
bombastic and offensive and stupid. I mean,

512
00:34:42.159 --> 00:34:44.760
honestly, the only thing he didn't
do constantly that I was kind of

513
00:34:44.760 --> 00:34:47.199
surprised was he doesn't drop the f
slur doesn't. Yeah, that was like

514
00:34:47.280 --> 00:34:52.199
the most restrained part of Harley.
But they're like ha ha ha, And

515
00:34:52.199 --> 00:34:54.440
then all of a sudden, it's
just this blackhurs is right next to them.

516
00:34:54.440 --> 00:35:00.159
They both just look at it,
like, what's going on? Why

517
00:35:00.239 --> 00:35:04.920
is that? Why is that there? Yeah, but it's a great break

518
00:35:05.039 --> 00:35:07.840
in the humor to remind you like, oh, yeah, you sat down

519
00:35:07.840 --> 00:35:13.039
to watch Monster Me not National Lampoons. Two bros get laid the movie or

520
00:35:13.039 --> 00:35:15.920
something, you know. And I
think it's worth saying to you that,

521
00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:17.400
like, if you want to set
your if you want to set a tone

522
00:35:17.400 --> 00:35:21.159
for your horse film, right away, put a mysterious hearse in it,

523
00:35:21.199 --> 00:35:23.239
because like Burnt Offerings has a great
one. Oh yeah, yeah, I

524
00:35:23.239 --> 00:35:27.079
love talk about dead End already,
yeah, which will probably be well,

525
00:35:27.079 --> 00:35:29.639
the hears is like a character in
that one. Yeah. I think I

526
00:35:29.679 --> 00:35:32.400
think it's one of those it's one
of those tropes that is you can say

527
00:35:32.400 --> 00:35:36.920
it's played out in a sense of
this point in horror because there's so many

528
00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:38.239
movies I can name with it.
But at the same time, it's still

529
00:35:38.280 --> 00:35:43.320
effective, and I still love that
trope. I mean, I mean it's

530
00:35:43.719 --> 00:35:47.440
hearses are a trope in the way
graveyards are a trope. I mean,

531
00:35:47.840 --> 00:35:52.880
I guess tropes I literally directly tied
to death to death, yes, so

532
00:35:52.079 --> 00:35:54.840
I mean yeah, So down the
road away is Adam and Harley stop off

533
00:35:54.840 --> 00:35:59.639
at a bar and Harley is questioning
their friendship over Betty Anne. And this

534
00:35:59.800 --> 00:36:01.960
is also when we kind of get
a taste of Harley and his love of

535
00:36:01.960 --> 00:36:06.800
the locals because they have a Monster
Truck Rally commercial on the TV and he's

536
00:36:06.840 --> 00:36:12.360
bashing both the Monster Truck Rally the
locals in the bar all in ice I

537
00:36:12.519 --> 00:36:17.599
sight of them. Yeah, yeah, I had an experience like fucking this.

538
00:36:19.519 --> 00:36:22.039
I was driving through the South when
I was eighteen years old with a

539
00:36:22.079 --> 00:36:30.039
buddy of mine, and I get
along with pretty much everybody, but holy

540
00:36:30.239 --> 00:36:35.760
crap, We're sitting in this like
hole in the wall and look, I'm

541
00:36:35.800 --> 00:36:42.880
eighteen. I wanted the Southern food
hole in the wall experience. I wanted

542
00:36:42.960 --> 00:36:49.360
the you know, baby's BBQ experience. Right, So I'm the dumbass who

543
00:36:49.400 --> 00:36:52.039
says, oh, let's not eat
right off the truck stop, let's go

544
00:36:52.159 --> 00:36:57.039
to the freaking hole in the wall. And we're sitting there waiting for our

545
00:36:57.119 --> 00:37:01.519
food or maybe we hadn't ordered yet, and my friend, who is sheltered,

546
00:37:02.360 --> 00:37:06.320
just goes like, there are a
lot of rednecks in here, and

547
00:37:06.360 --> 00:37:09.920
I'm like, what is wrong with
you? I mean, first of all,

548
00:37:12.119 --> 00:37:15.639
that's just shitty. No one's being
rude to us. Yeah, Like

549
00:37:15.679 --> 00:37:17.079
they literally said, like, how
are you doing watching you sit over there?

550
00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:22.280
We'll get something to eat, you
know. Like, there are two

551
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:24.599
times in my life I went I
drove through the South, and I love

552
00:37:24.639 --> 00:37:28.280
the South. I don't not just
say this to cope. I mean like,

553
00:37:28.639 --> 00:37:31.559
I enjoy the food, I enjoy
the hospitality, I enjoy the people.

554
00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:35.599
But I have driven through the South
twice with two of the most miserable

555
00:37:35.599 --> 00:37:37.159
people. One was my buddy,
who I'm not gonna name because I don't

556
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:40.880
want to be a dickhead because he's
grown up a lot. And the other

557
00:37:42.039 --> 00:37:45.920
I won't name her either. Yeah, but they just hated every second of

558
00:37:45.960 --> 00:37:49.360
it, and they were rude everywhere
we went. And then they would complain

559
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:53.599
about how rude everybody else was.
Oh my god, and that remins Oh,

560
00:37:53.679 --> 00:38:00.199
no, what do you remember that
movie Savage Harvest, that proto s

561
00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:02.679
that you had that you got from
Keno. Oh yeah, Eric Stansey Fah,

562
00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:06.840
of course. So there's that scene
where they go into that bar and

563
00:38:06.880 --> 00:38:08.639
that that one character is gay,
and and like you think that, like

564
00:38:08.639 --> 00:38:12.639
it's gonna be exactly like the Southerner's
attack the gay person. No, the

565
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:15.679
gay guy just starts, that's not
savage heard savage Savage Weekend again? Yeah,

566
00:38:15.719 --> 00:38:21.280
yeah, yeah, yeah, that
is the weirdest moment. I enjoyed

567
00:38:21.320 --> 00:38:25.119
Savage Weekend. But literally, they
walk into this this redneck bar, and

568
00:38:25.159 --> 00:38:28.960
the gay character is like you're You're
like, oh, I hope there's not

569
00:38:28.960 --> 00:38:30.039
gonna be problems. And then he
walks and goes, hey, a bunch

570
00:38:30.039 --> 00:38:32.519
of and bred hicks, I'm gay. What do you think about? It

571
00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:43.639
starts unprompted, unprompted. Well,
for the record, that was one of

572
00:38:43.679 --> 00:38:46.119
the weirdest things I've ever seen in
the b movie. Why does he walk

573
00:38:46.159 --> 00:38:53.000
in and just start beating the hell
out of everybody? But but Savage Weekend

574
00:38:53.079 --> 00:38:55.639
is a trip. It's absolutely worth
the watch. But uh but no.

575
00:38:55.679 --> 00:39:01.920
So we got out of there alive, mainly because I the weirdo with the

576
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:06.880
long hair and the Hawaiian shirt.
Ye looked at the people who were staring

577
00:39:07.039 --> 00:39:12.559
and smiled like a smile like sorry, like why is he an ass?

578
00:39:13.000 --> 00:39:15.559
And then I did turn up and
go like why are you being a dick?

579
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:17.159
Like why are you being a dick? But all I could think was

580
00:39:17.199 --> 00:39:22.000
like, I am going to eat
this barbecue so fast, wipe my mouth

581
00:39:22.000 --> 00:39:24.880
with a piece of bread, and
get the fuck out of here, because

582
00:39:24.920 --> 00:39:30.480
you're scaring me. And the other
one I was driving through with this chick.

583
00:39:30.960 --> 00:39:34.440
We were not dating or anything,
but we were driving through the South

584
00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:37.199
and everywhere she went, we went, she was just rude. And then

585
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:40.239
we complain about how rude everybody was. And then when I said, like,

586
00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:43.280
I don't know, I find people
are very polite in the South,

587
00:39:43.320 --> 00:39:45.639
she was like, well, they're
saying nice things, but they're thinking mean

588
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:50.000
things. And I turned to her
and I was like, that's harder to

589
00:39:50.039 --> 00:39:52.599
do. People aren't polite if they're
nice to you because they like you.

590
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:57.960
They're polite if they're nice to you
even though they hate you. That's politeness.

591
00:39:58.199 --> 00:40:01.039
That's impressive. If to your face
they're just like, how are you

592
00:40:01.159 --> 00:40:04.320
good? To see you have a
great day, And then they're like,

593
00:40:04.320 --> 00:40:07.840
oh, I'm glad they're gone.
It's like I'll never be offended. Yeah,

594
00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:09.840
I got to be treated nicely.
Yeah. Now, if they spit

595
00:40:09.880 --> 00:40:14.159
in your food or something, which
they probably did because my friend was such

596
00:40:14.199 --> 00:40:22.000
a jack out, I could see
that. Look, look, I've traveled

597
00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:28.679
the country. I've been around some
places. That was so fucking scary.

598
00:40:29.039 --> 00:40:31.440
I was eighteen years old. I
was like, well, time for my

599
00:40:31.519 --> 00:40:36.320
first serious fist fight. Yeah,
yay. Actually, like part of me

600
00:40:36.400 --> 00:40:37.280
was like, you know, if
they come over and start pounding on my

601
00:40:37.320 --> 00:40:39.559
buddy, I'm gonna join them.
I'm just gonna start seeing them too.

602
00:40:40.000 --> 00:40:43.880
And then you can also do the
Pendulete method where you just poured the shake

603
00:40:43.960 --> 00:40:45.840
that you ordered on your show.
Oh yeah, pour it on your own

604
00:40:45.880 --> 00:40:49.480
head. Honestly, that might have
diffused the situation. But I just had

605
00:40:49.519 --> 00:40:53.320
to get that across because that scene
reminds me so much of just a few

606
00:40:53.360 --> 00:40:57.760
years later in my own life.
Cause eighteen and five, so two years

607
00:40:57.760 --> 00:41:00.920
after I've seen this movie, I'm
driving through the South having a wonderful time.

608
00:41:00.079 --> 00:41:04.480
And then my friend. The weirdest
thing though, that was a friend

609
00:41:04.480 --> 00:41:08.719
who was very shy, so he
wasn't he wasn't like I'm just blah blah

610
00:41:08.719 --> 00:41:12.639
blah. He wasn't Harley time.
He sat down and was like look at

611
00:41:12.679 --> 00:41:14.920
it was like I'll have this and
this, and like when the lady walked

612
00:41:14.920 --> 00:41:16.159
away, he was like, there
are a lot of rednecks here. Like

613
00:41:16.159 --> 00:41:22.079
he was just yeah, anyway,
bad, Yeah, I got that back

614
00:41:22.159 --> 00:41:24.800
to the film. So naturally,
you know, he gets upset about Harley's

615
00:41:24.800 --> 00:41:30.360
crest comments and they shortly leave after
that, and that's when Harley tells Adam

616
00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:31.840
that you know, he he lives
through him, you know, like I'm

617
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:35.480
the asshole friend, You're you're the
you're the dweeb, and this is you

618
00:41:35.559 --> 00:41:39.199
live vicarious through me. Yeah.
So that's when Adam, seeing roadkill,

619
00:41:39.440 --> 00:41:43.440
uses his turn signal to avoid it, even though there's no other cars on

620
00:41:43.480 --> 00:41:46.000
the road and the way it's directed
is perfect. He sees the road kill

621
00:41:46.239 --> 00:41:52.400
click click click from and he goes, see it's ship like that. You

622
00:41:52.519 --> 00:41:55.719
used your turn signal to pass the
road kill. There's no car we're in

623
00:41:55.800 --> 00:42:00.239
sight. Yeah, So as they
drive away, we see a hand come

624
00:42:00.280 --> 00:42:02.119
out and grab the road kill off
the road, which may come back later

625
00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:07.159
well, and the hand is like
got dirty leather gloves and tighten the vice

626
00:42:07.199 --> 00:42:10.000
in the beginning of the movie exactly, So it's ours. It just might

627
00:42:10.039 --> 00:42:14.000
be our monster man. I mean, do you think there's a monster man

628
00:42:14.039 --> 00:42:16.039
in this picture? There could be. Okay, So Harley questions Adam's plan

629
00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:21.159
to get Betty and back right as
an insane monster truck starts driving and tailing

630
00:42:21.239 --> 00:42:23.599
them right behind, driving crazy and
like coming right up on them. And

631
00:42:24.280 --> 00:42:29.760
this is not It looks like a
homemade monster yet, like it doesn't have

632
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:31.559
a normal cab it had. It
looks more like a tank. It almost.

633
00:42:31.599 --> 00:42:36.079
It reminds me of a It's it's
like death Proof esque with the like

634
00:42:36.119 --> 00:42:37.920
the style of the car, the
top and everything. But it's just got

635
00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:42.840
the straight up monster truck wheels.
But the one thing about this this truck

636
00:42:43.239 --> 00:42:46.760
that fascinated me even as a kid
watching it, yeah, was when they're

637
00:42:46.840 --> 00:42:51.320
driving behind him, when they would
speed up suddenly it has this little bumper

638
00:42:51.360 --> 00:42:54.119
piece on the bottom to knock your
car around and then where the body it

639
00:42:54.199 --> 00:42:58.440
meets and when it would speed up
it looked like a mouth biting at you.

640
00:42:58.599 --> 00:43:00.519
Yeah, like it looked like it
was bowling and biting like a lion.

641
00:43:00.639 --> 00:43:04.559
And they definitely use the sound design
in this part really really cool.

642
00:43:04.639 --> 00:43:07.039
Yeah, but I remember, even
as a kid, I thought it was

643
00:43:07.079 --> 00:43:10.079
CGI or something because it was like, how did they do that? Because

644
00:43:10.119 --> 00:43:14.400
it really looks like it's trying to
bite their car. Yeah, it's such

645
00:43:14.440 --> 00:43:17.559
a cool mo Yeah. Yeah.
So that's when you know they're trying to

646
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:20.679
basically get the car to pass,
which I love that they're like, oh,

647
00:43:20.679 --> 00:43:23.079
around us, go around. That's
after Harley's flipped it off. Oh

648
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:25.000
yeah, flipped it off. Yeah
right, yeah, he did one of

649
00:43:25.079 --> 00:43:28.159
my favorites. He held up his
hand and went, you know what,

650
00:43:28.199 --> 00:43:30.960
this is a flock of these flipped
his middle finger. So they're trying to

651
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:34.800
get the truck to pass. The
truck is not having it and tries to

652
00:43:34.880 --> 00:43:37.519
drive them off the road, narrowly
missing another car before they stop, and

653
00:43:37.559 --> 00:43:39.559
that's when the two of them kind
of get into a little bit of a

654
00:43:39.599 --> 00:43:43.000
fight. They wrestle a little bit, and then you know, they decide

655
00:43:43.000 --> 00:43:45.679
that they're going to walk down the
road a little bit. Their fight is

656
00:43:45.800 --> 00:43:49.440
so funny. Yes, it is
because it's a montage basically, so the

657
00:43:49.719 --> 00:43:52.400
camera's locked in one position, but
they keep changing, and at one point

658
00:43:52.440 --> 00:43:57.400
he has him in a pro wrestling
Boston crab. He's like, ah,

659
00:43:57.440 --> 00:44:00.679
and of course because Harley is hard. Ye, what ends the fight is

660
00:44:00.679 --> 00:44:06.599
he has he has Adam and a
head scissors and and you think it's gonna

661
00:44:06.639 --> 00:44:08.199
it's gonna be another cutaway, but
then he goes, he goes, I'm

662
00:44:08.199 --> 00:44:12.920
gonna fara Okay, okay you then
when he lets go, he's like,

663
00:44:13.119 --> 00:44:17.400
good choice, choice, because I'd
have done it. So they're walking down

664
00:44:17.440 --> 00:44:21.679
the road a little bit and they
come across a memoriam cross from an accident,

665
00:44:21.719 --> 00:44:23.679
and Harley is like, you know
what's that? And it's like really

666
00:44:23.719 --> 00:44:29.239
like, you don't know what that
is because he's an anthropology major. Anthropology

667
00:44:29.280 --> 00:44:34.280
major, it meant somebody die.
Yeah, do you even? Movie?

668
00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:49.400
Will be right back, welcome back
to do You Even? Movie? So

669
00:44:49.519 --> 00:44:52.039
Adam believes someone is coming after them, but Harley then catches sight of an

670
00:44:52.159 --> 00:44:55.119
RV off to the side of them, and they approach it because they need

671
00:44:55.159 --> 00:44:58.480
to get gas of the car,
and we as the viewers, see that

672
00:44:58.519 --> 00:45:00.000
there's blood on the inside of the
window. Yeah, what they do is

673
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:05.039
they show the inside and then let
us see through the window them walking up,

674
00:45:05.159 --> 00:45:08.119
so we don't just see blood.
We eventually see a headless corpse just

675
00:45:08.159 --> 00:45:12.440
seated in there because they want to
siphon fuel from it. So that's when

676
00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:15.079
Harley goes in and grabs a cup
and a straw out of the cup holder,

677
00:45:15.119 --> 00:45:16.039
and the corpse is right behind him, so they don't see the corpse

678
00:45:16.039 --> 00:45:20.440
at all, and he goes to
the tank and he starts putting the straw

679
00:45:20.519 --> 00:45:22.960
in and sucking it out, and
Adam starts laughing, and Harley is then

680
00:45:23.400 --> 00:45:28.719
told that he's been sucking from the
septic tank. Yeah, it's pretty gross,

681
00:45:29.079 --> 00:45:31.400
pretty gross, so you knew.
Yeah, he gets pissed, starts

682
00:45:31.480 --> 00:45:35.840
chasing over, and that's when we
see the corpse inside the cancer. But

683
00:45:35.920 --> 00:45:38.159
also we pull back and see that
there are tire tracks that have made a

684
00:45:38.159 --> 00:45:44.000
pentagram all around this RV that they're
inside. One of the coolest visuals of

685
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:47.360
the whole film, absolutely just tire
marks that make a perfect pentagram. Yeah,

686
00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:51.679
and that's when that's at that moment
when you know like, Okay,

687
00:45:51.800 --> 00:45:54.480
some shit is about to go down, really going down. Yeah, I

688
00:45:54.559 --> 00:45:58.119
wonder if that that the dead body
in there might have been the guy who

689
00:45:58.119 --> 00:46:00.559
got his head vised. Oh,
that I didn't think about that. Define

690
00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:06.159
his head's basically makes sense. Yeah, And and the fact that one of

691
00:46:06.199 --> 00:46:08.480
the things I love. So I'm
not a huge fan of horror comedies,

692
00:46:08.559 --> 00:46:13.440
yeah, I am a huge fan
of very funny horror movies. Yeah,

693
00:46:13.480 --> 00:46:17.559
And there is a difference a horror
comedy. The horror is funny. That's

694
00:46:17.639 --> 00:46:22.960
the to me anyway. That's my
opinion on it as to where a very

695
00:46:22.000 --> 00:46:27.239
funny horror movie. There's just a
lot of funny characters, but there's a

696
00:46:27.239 --> 00:46:29.280
lot of dead, serious stuff,
you know, And there are a lot

697
00:46:29.320 --> 00:46:30.880
of examples of that. Like I
would say Evil Dead two is a horror

698
00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:35.719
comedy, but then I would say
Return to the Living Dead is a funny

699
00:46:35.760 --> 00:46:38.199
horror movie, and I would call
Student Bodies absolutely horror comedy. Oh god.

700
00:46:38.320 --> 00:46:44.519
Yeah. Mick Garris had a quote
once that it was basically like,

701
00:46:44.559 --> 00:46:47.159
it's really it's really easy to shoot
or it's really tough to shoot a horror

702
00:46:47.199 --> 00:46:51.079
comedy. It's really easy to shoot
a horror film with comedic bits. And

703
00:46:51.159 --> 00:46:53.880
I think it's it doesn't take away
from the fear, the fear element like

704
00:46:53.920 --> 00:46:59.639
Tucker and Dale horror comedy and a
good one. But you know, yeah,

705
00:46:59.679 --> 00:47:01.920
there are lot of examples. But
my point is, so, we

706
00:47:02.079 --> 00:47:06.199
just had this scene where these guys
are wrestling and they stop wrestling because the

707
00:47:06.199 --> 00:47:07.920
guy says he'll fart in his face. Then they go over here we have

708
00:47:07.960 --> 00:47:12.719
a shit joke. Then they walk
away going ah blah blah blah, and

709
00:47:12.760 --> 00:47:16.320
we pull back and it's like severed
head, giant pentagram, You're fuck and

710
00:47:16.320 --> 00:47:22.039
they're wrestling in the giant pedagram because
we set the shit. So I'm just

711
00:47:22.119 --> 00:47:24.800
saying, like, that's such a
great example of having a horror movie with

712
00:47:24.880 --> 00:47:30.480
lots of funny stuff in it is
that that funny stuff can lull you into

713
00:47:30.519 --> 00:47:31.920
a sense of security, but then
all of a sudden, you're like,

714
00:47:32.519 --> 00:47:37.159
right, vicious, violent horror movie. That is what we're where we're at.

715
00:47:37.400 --> 00:47:38.880
So down the road, after they
got their gas, they're driving along

716
00:47:38.920 --> 00:47:43.159
and they see a female hitchhiker that
Harley shouts at as they drive past.

717
00:47:43.199 --> 00:47:46.079
Because one thing I forgot to mention
is Harley brings up Citizen Kane and Rosebud

718
00:47:46.159 --> 00:47:50.639
specifically, Yeah, he brings up
the urban legend. I believe it's an

719
00:47:50.719 --> 00:47:54.639
urban legend. Yeah, that Rosebud
was a reference to one of oh what's

720
00:47:54.639 --> 00:48:02.239
his name Orson Wells's friends girlfriendsva Ema. Yep, so sorry, pardon my

721
00:48:02.280 --> 00:48:07.000
Spanish, but but so that's like
the joke. And the great thing is,

722
00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:10.639
so they're driving past this chick and
she is just two thousand and two

723
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.440
hot topic sects. Oh yeah,
oh yeah, that is that is what

724
00:48:14.519 --> 00:48:17.880
she is. She's wearing a tiny
mini skirt. She's wearing a black brawl

725
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:21.199
with a barely covering it. I
don't even know what you call it.

726
00:48:21.199 --> 00:48:22.599
It's not a top. You can
see it's a mesh top. I guess

727
00:48:22.880 --> 00:48:25.559
it's like a mesh blouse. But
it's only buttoned at the top. So

728
00:48:25.639 --> 00:48:29.880
her mid drift. Remember the two
thousands were the era of the mid drift.

729
00:48:30.400 --> 00:48:32.559
I don't know if you remember that. I remember her navel ring,

730
00:48:32.599 --> 00:48:35.800
which she comments on. He says, like, the naval ring means she'll

731
00:48:35.840 --> 00:48:39.559
do unspeakable things. And as they
drive by, of course Adam is like,

732
00:48:39.599 --> 00:48:44.280
we're not picking up a hitch hiker. I was actually shocked they didn't

733
00:48:44.320 --> 00:48:47.239
do the the line that's in like
every movie where It's like horror movies start

734
00:48:47.800 --> 00:48:54.320
and then somebody goes so favorite like
that too. It's a great line.

735
00:48:54.400 --> 00:48:58.920
But but but as they drive past
though, I love that once they've accepted

736
00:48:58.960 --> 00:49:01.119
that they're not picking her up,
Harley sticks his head out and then slow

737
00:49:01.119 --> 00:49:08.639
motion goes brow like she she doesn't
even know what the things like sheeted with

738
00:49:08.920 --> 00:49:10.960
well, no, no, but
she then she does like a powdy like

739
00:49:12.000 --> 00:49:15.880
oh because they walk away and she
kicks the dirt and they keep driving down

740
00:49:15.880 --> 00:49:19.719
the highway. Oh and I forgot
about it platform stiletto or platform heels rather.

741
00:49:20.320 --> 00:49:24.639
She is just like literally a walking
hot topic sex stream yep, and

742
00:49:25.079 --> 00:49:29.159
it is very Oh yeah, the
jelly bracelets, I know, the end

743
00:49:29.199 --> 00:49:30.480
of the movie was I was like, oh my gosh, she's wearing black

744
00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:37.360
jelly bracelets. That was hold on, were you around for the the fucking

745
00:49:37.480 --> 00:49:42.440
insanity about the jelly bracelets needed to
be banned from schools? Was it because

746
00:49:42.440 --> 00:49:47.119
there was association with them of the
colors? Yeah? Because parents are perverts.

747
00:49:47.440 --> 00:49:51.280
I remember this, Oh I remember
this. No, let's talk about

748
00:49:51.280 --> 00:49:55.400
this for a second. Absolutely please. Parents are perverts and and and they

749
00:49:55.480 --> 00:50:01.519
tend to believe the most twisted stuff
off about their kids. It's so weird

750
00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:07.000
because because my generation got hit really
hard about this whole jel jelly bracelet thing.

751
00:50:07.400 --> 00:50:12.119
So basically, there was this belief, an urban legend that was circulated

752
00:50:12.159 --> 00:50:19.519
by chain letters that if your daughter
was wearing certain colored bracelets, it signified

753
00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:25.199
that she had either done certain sex
acts or was willing to do certain sex

754
00:50:25.239 --> 00:50:29.800
acts. And that was her way
of broadcasting it to everybody. Yep.

755
00:50:30.000 --> 00:50:36.639
Because apparently parents who by the way, by the way, mate were they

756
00:50:36.679 --> 00:50:40.119
lived through the goddamn sixties. They
think that the fucking two thousands kids are

757
00:50:40.159 --> 00:50:45.440
Studio sixty four or some shit.
No, we're all scared of each other.

758
00:50:45.719 --> 00:50:49.039
We're all, you know, just
hoping for that one day we'll get

759
00:50:49.079 --> 00:50:52.440
that really dry hand job that we've
been dreaming about our whole lives. They

760
00:50:53.079 --> 00:50:59.840
they think that that. So the
final version of it when they finally banned

761
00:51:00.320 --> 00:51:05.079
the jelly bracelets from my school,
was the version that got to my school

762
00:51:05.199 --> 00:51:09.280
was that when girls wear those bracelets, all boys have to do is walk

763
00:51:09.360 --> 00:51:15.039
up and snap one, and if
they rip it off, the girl now

764
00:51:15.199 --> 00:51:20.960
owes them the sex act. So
now we're diving into something parents have always

765
00:51:20.960 --> 00:51:24.599
been obsessed with, which is this
idea that children who are teenagers who are

766
00:51:24.639 --> 00:51:29.440
generally scared of sex, generally scared
of the opposite sex, generally nervous,

767
00:51:29.519 --> 00:51:34.599
yeah for a while, are just
complete hedonists who are willing to go have

768
00:51:34.719 --> 00:51:38.840
sex based on pulling on a bracelets
which I remember was it? Do you

769
00:51:38.840 --> 00:51:43.719
remember if it was Grounded for Life? They did the episode where the daughter

770
00:51:43.760 --> 00:51:45.159
was getting into it and the mom
likes to look at the bracelets, so

771
00:51:45.199 --> 00:51:49.480
she gets like all the colors.
I do think if it's a ground for

772
00:51:49.559 --> 00:51:52.320
life are still standing, that sounds
like grounded for life. It's either that

773
00:51:52.360 --> 00:51:54.320
are still standing. I think it
might be still standing. With Jamie Gertz,

774
00:51:54.599 --> 00:51:58.119
I never saw that one. Oh
god, real quick. One of

775
00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:01.440
my favorite episodes of It's the It's
the the Big It's the Heavy guy that

776
00:52:01.599 --> 00:52:06.280
was in full Monty and Knight's Tail. I can't think of his name,

777
00:52:06.320 --> 00:52:08.000
but he's he's the star of it. In Jamie Gertz's Wife, there's an

778
00:52:08.000 --> 00:52:12.519
episode though, where Kevin Nielan's their
neighbor and they don't they think that he

779
00:52:12.559 --> 00:52:15.400
doesn't like them because like apparently like
he's had parties and has invited them so

780
00:52:15.480 --> 00:52:19.039
they they come home one day and
they see all these cars up from his

781
00:52:19.039 --> 00:52:21.480
house and like that, that's some
of the bitch didn't invite us again.

782
00:52:21.800 --> 00:52:23.440
So they get eggs and start egging
his house. They cut inside of Nelon's

783
00:52:23.480 --> 00:52:30.519
house. He's doing a freaking it's
a it's a funeral for grandmother. Just

784
00:52:30.559 --> 00:52:34.239
start hitting the window. God damn, I love that show. But no,

785
00:52:34.320 --> 00:52:36.679
yeah, I remember there's an episode
where they do that. But yeah,

786
00:52:36.679 --> 00:52:37.840
I think it's still standing, so
if you could find that show.

787
00:52:38.119 --> 00:52:40.719
But yeah, I I remember the
whole jelly bracelet thing, and the big

788
00:52:40.719 --> 00:52:45.079
thing was if a girl was wearing
black jelly bracelets, that meant she went

789
00:52:45.440 --> 00:52:50.960
all the way. Ye how how
stupid. What a time to be alive.

790
00:52:52.239 --> 00:52:55.559
So so after they passed the hitchhiker, they stop at a rest area

791
00:52:55.599 --> 00:53:00.320
down the restroom down the road a
few ways and he exits out of the

792
00:53:00.320 --> 00:53:04.679
car and that's when we see the
monster truck. Yeah, is parked right

793
00:53:04.719 --> 00:53:08.360
there. So he goes into the
bathroom and the monster man enters the bathroom

794
00:53:08.400 --> 00:53:10.800
and he's banging on the door.
Harley is asleep in the car, but

795
00:53:10.880 --> 00:53:15.119
he wakes up and takes notice of
the monster truck, and Adam's door is

796
00:53:15.199 --> 00:53:16.559
rattle a few seconds before the Monster
Man just goes in the next stall,

797
00:53:16.599 --> 00:53:20.039
which, by the way, the
next doll also has a bunch of riding

798
00:53:20.079 --> 00:53:22.119
and a glory hole in it.
Yeah, this bathroom makes the bathroom in

799
00:53:22.159 --> 00:53:27.039
Texas Chainsaw Massacre three look like a
pilot gas station. Yeah, it does.

800
00:53:27.599 --> 00:53:30.239
It does. That's a joke for
you road weary bastards. So he

801
00:53:30.559 --> 00:53:34.280
by this point he's also put a
piece of toilet paper into the glory hole,

802
00:53:34.280 --> 00:53:36.480
but he takes it away to get
a peek of the Monster Man.

803
00:53:36.679 --> 00:53:39.119
Meanwhile, outside, Harley has decided
to take a piss in the Monster Man's

804
00:53:39.119 --> 00:53:44.400
cab, because Harley is the man
of the people, he is a man

805
00:53:44.400 --> 00:53:45.800
of the piece, and he's just
standing over the top with the door open,

806
00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:50.199
just whizzing right into it, right
into it. So Adam comes out

807
00:53:50.199 --> 00:53:52.800
and he's pissed by seeing Harley pissing
in the bathroom. The truck was pissed.

808
00:53:53.079 --> 00:53:55.880
The truck was pissed, Yeah,
pissed in So they race back to

809
00:53:55.920 --> 00:53:59.639
their car as Adam gives him hell, telling him the guy didn't even look

810
00:53:59.719 --> 00:54:01.800
human, Harley assures him that he
didn't see him and that they won't notice

811
00:54:01.840 --> 00:54:06.440
anything and that they're then the clear. And that's when Harley notices that Adam

812
00:54:06.480 --> 00:54:09.679
has had this ornament on his UH
antenna. That's like a like a Jack

813
00:54:09.679 --> 00:54:12.639
in the box face, isn't it. It looks like a jack in the

814
00:54:12.639 --> 00:54:15.440
box face. It's a face made
out of a ping pong ball. Yeah,

815
00:54:15.440 --> 00:54:16.679
and it's crushed now, and he's
like, was that like that before?

816
00:54:17.239 --> 00:54:22.679
So they clearly now have somebody on
to them. So that's when Harley

817
00:54:22.679 --> 00:54:23.960
assures him, you know, everything's
fine, you know, let's just stop

818
00:54:24.000 --> 00:54:25.960
for the night. So they get
a hotel room for the night, and

819
00:54:27.000 --> 00:54:30.199
they see a news report about the
RV that they stopped at finding the pentagram

820
00:54:30.239 --> 00:54:31.920
and the body inside. Yeah,
so now they know that they were like

821
00:54:32.440 --> 00:54:37.000
inches from a dead body. So
Adam begins to freak out about the day's

822
00:54:37.039 --> 00:54:38.239
events and he wants to call the
police, but Harley tells him, you

823
00:54:38.280 --> 00:54:40.480
know, what are we gonna tell
him? Like you see, and we

824
00:54:40.480 --> 00:54:44.719
suspect that this guy and everything,
you know, we just need to keep

825
00:54:44.719 --> 00:54:46.480
moving. Don't worry about it.
We'll keep going. So later that night,

826
00:54:46.519 --> 00:54:51.039
Adam is awoken because he's hearing whispering
if somebody's saying I'm gonna get you,

827
00:54:51.320 --> 00:54:52.559
I'm gonna get you, which is
revealed to be Harley, who's having

828
00:54:52.559 --> 00:54:57.079
a sex stream. Yeah yeah,
because because car Harley, and he's like,

829
00:54:57.280 --> 00:55:00.519
I'm gonna get your baby, I'm
gonna get your baby. Yeah.

830
00:55:00.559 --> 00:55:02.920
So he goes back to sleep,
but however, this scene wakes up a

831
00:55:02.920 --> 00:55:07.440
few short minutes later and he is
feeling around his bed and we just see

832
00:55:07.440 --> 00:55:12.239
that there is like bloody fur on
top of them. They are then revealed

833
00:55:12.280 --> 00:55:15.280
to be covered both in roadkill.
Yes, And then the scene takes a

834
00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:22.480
direction that I can only I can
only golf clap. It's it is two

835
00:55:22.519 --> 00:55:25.440
thousands af because Harley, still in
the midst of his sex dream, picks

836
00:55:25.480 --> 00:55:31.679
up his roadkill starts touching it,
and wow, this is gonna be a

837
00:55:32.519 --> 00:55:37.840
two vohena show. Yes, I
guess in his dream thinks that it is

838
00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:42.239
a vohema. Yes, so he
begins playing with it, touching it,

839
00:55:42.280 --> 00:55:46.199
brings it up to his face.
It is so gross. We don't have

840
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:50.199
to film you get the rest,
no, no, no, Dave in

841
00:55:50.760 --> 00:55:54.800
detail, every stroke, every lick. But this was the scene. This

842
00:55:54.960 --> 00:55:58.360
was the scene though where I turned
to Dave when shit, I remember this

843
00:55:58.400 --> 00:56:00.280
movie completely, yeah, because the
so many cut to them in the hotel

844
00:56:00.360 --> 00:56:06.239
room went oh God. So they
both freak out. They flee the motel.

845
00:56:06.320 --> 00:56:07.920
They're back on the road and Adam
stops down the road as it's revealed

846
00:56:07.920 --> 00:56:12.480
their tires have also been slashed.
Now, so suddenly somebody rises out of

847
00:56:12.519 --> 00:56:14.559
the back of their car, causing
them to get out of the car and

848
00:56:14.599 --> 00:56:16.800
flee, and it's revealed to be
the hitchhiker, who is named Sarah,

849
00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:19.880
and she says, Oh, sorry, guys, I was just crashing in

850
00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:22.800
your car. Yeah, which I
mean we were both like, what,

851
00:56:22.119 --> 00:56:24.880
Like, why is that? Okay? I guess you know, if you

852
00:56:25.000 --> 00:56:30.360
if you look into the context,
she's clearly a drifter. Yeah, so

853
00:56:30.800 --> 00:56:32.840
I guess she's like, what,
I needed a place shelter, and I

854
00:56:32.960 --> 00:56:37.639
don't have anything. I mean remember, and also like that bitch can't even

855
00:56:37.679 --> 00:56:40.400
have an ID on her because where
would she Well, there's only one place

856
00:56:40.440 --> 00:56:45.119
she could put it, nature's pocket. So they introduce each other as Sarah

857
00:56:45.159 --> 00:56:49.920
tells them that she's heading anywhere but
here, and she sizes up Harley as

858
00:56:49.920 --> 00:56:52.400
an asshole. She immediately figures out
that Harley's again, Wow, she must

859
00:56:52.440 --> 00:56:55.199
be really good at reading people,
right, because that's a subtle one to

860
00:56:55.199 --> 00:57:01.119
figure out, and Adam has the
strong, silent type, so he comments

861
00:57:01.119 --> 00:57:05.039
on her root beer colored eyes,
which wins her over. So the next

862
00:57:05.039 --> 00:57:08.440
morning, Adam phones the police reporting
the monster truck anonymously and he tells Harley

863
00:57:08.480 --> 00:57:12.360
tells Adam that this is his moment
to Papa's Cherry with Sarah because at this

864
00:57:12.400 --> 00:57:15.440
point they're outside the car, Sarah
is sleeping. I love the sequel.

865
00:57:15.559 --> 00:57:19.920
Yeah, she's faking sleeping in the
car, and that's when Harley just goes

866
00:57:19.960 --> 00:57:22.199
into this whole thing about how you
know she could be the one to like,

867
00:57:22.239 --> 00:57:24.760
you know, save him at this
point and basically get him prepared for

868
00:57:25.360 --> 00:57:30.639
Betty Anne. The reason I love
this scene is because most of the scene,

869
00:57:30.639 --> 00:57:32.639
although they cut to a couple of
different shots, Yeah, they show

870
00:57:32.719 --> 00:57:37.000
her in the foreground to sleep,
and then they are shot through the window

871
00:57:37.000 --> 00:57:39.760
of the car, so as they're
talking, you can see that she's awake.

872
00:57:39.840 --> 00:57:43.719
You can see her kind of chuckle
to herself when they say something really

873
00:57:43.719 --> 00:57:46.920
weird or funny. It makes it
very clear she's awake, so that then

874
00:57:47.199 --> 00:57:52.679
it's a little less creepy when Harley
reaches in basically groper He's going to groper

875
00:57:52.719 --> 00:57:55.679
in her sleep, and he's like, she'll never know she's asleep. And

876
00:57:55.920 --> 00:58:00.159
but I think that it was a
plan. Oh yeah, because as he's

877
00:58:00.199 --> 00:58:02.239
Harley's hand to stop fights him off. Harley houlds his hand away and shoves

878
00:58:02.239 --> 00:58:07.920
his hand right on to her breast. But then she throws a curveball bye

879
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:10.760
because we know she's away by going
by. She just mows and goes,

880
00:58:10.800 --> 00:58:15.119
oh, Adam, I love the
way you can touch me. And then

881
00:58:15.119 --> 00:58:21.400
Harley's like, that's that's bullshit.
So he's pissed now, and Adam fights

882
00:58:21.400 --> 00:58:24.519
Harley off, and that's when Sarah
responds happy Harley gives Adam hell about the

883
00:58:24.559 --> 00:58:29.360
fact that she likes him, bringing
up how Betty Ann also slept with Harley.

884
00:58:29.760 --> 00:58:35.039
Yeah, one of the big the
big divides between them. But it

885
00:58:35.119 --> 00:58:39.039
also proves that Harley he's kind of
as pathetic as had him. Yeah,

886
00:58:39.079 --> 00:58:43.960
because now Harley is kind of thinking, maybe I love betty Anne too well,

887
00:58:43.960 --> 00:58:45.760
and he says, you know,
you couldn't seal the deal with her,

888
00:58:45.800 --> 00:58:47.360
so I had to And this pisses
Adam's off, and you know.

889
00:58:47.480 --> 00:58:52.239
That's when he calls him a woosie
again. So then they try to reason

890
00:58:52.280 --> 00:58:53.760
with Sarah because Sarah's woken up by
this point, and she's like, you

891
00:58:53.760 --> 00:58:57.360
know, I can't stand YouTube fighting, so like, let's figure this out.

892
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.840
So she plants a big kiss on
Harley yeah, which turns into a

893
00:59:00.960 --> 00:59:04.840
quick short makeout grope fest yep.
And then that's when she goes to Adam,

894
00:59:04.920 --> 00:59:07.719
and Adam like takes his turn,
but he decides to kiss her on

895
00:59:07.719 --> 00:59:12.039
the neck and we just see.
She explains first that the goal of this

896
00:59:12.280 --> 00:59:19.079
is is not just to be as
pointless as challengers. The the goal is

897
00:59:19.079 --> 00:59:23.199
is whoever turns her on the most
is the person she's actually into into.

898
00:59:23.320 --> 00:59:27.519
Yeah, but you're but then you're
right. Then Adam goes for the unexpected

899
00:59:27.559 --> 00:59:30.760
move. He kisses her gently on
the nape of her neck and she loves

900
00:59:30.800 --> 00:59:35.719
it, and she loves you see
a little hand twirl. Yeah, her

901
00:59:35.760 --> 00:59:38.599
hand like like move like a stretches
and like tenses and stuff. It's a

902
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:42.880
very sweet scene actually. So that's
when she confesses about fake sleeping so she

903
00:59:42.920 --> 00:59:45.119
could teach Harley a lesson, and
she even goes further with that lesson because

904
00:59:45.159 --> 00:59:49.039
Harley is now sleeping the car at
this point, and she writes a hole

905
00:59:49.119 --> 00:59:52.719
on his forehead, yes, and
which I mean literally a hole, not

906
00:59:52.760 --> 00:59:55.519
asshole, a asshole, ahle ash
hole, which was honestly smart. They

907
00:59:55.559 --> 00:59:59.760
were probably thinking about when it would
play on Basic cable. Yeah, you

908
00:59:59.760 --> 01:00:02.159
know, don't want to have to
blur it, yea. So later the

909
01:00:02.199 --> 01:00:06.960
three stop off at another bar,
and that's when Adam notices that everybody at

910
01:00:06.960 --> 01:00:08.880
this bar is missing a limb,
whether it's a leg or an arm.

911
01:00:09.519 --> 01:00:14.000
And I gotta say, this is
one part of the film that bothered me

912
01:00:14.039 --> 01:00:16.960
as a young man and still bothers
me. So they hired a ton of

913
01:00:17.599 --> 01:00:22.039
who I would believe are real tea
amputees, which is great because amputee actors

914
01:00:22.079 --> 01:00:25.920
deserve to work just as much as
anybody else. Yeah, but the makeup

915
01:00:25.960 --> 01:00:30.719
they put on the stumps, it's
gross. They are heinous looking. They're

916
01:00:30.840 --> 01:00:35.639
just like they all look like they're
kind of infected and not healed properly.

917
01:00:35.800 --> 01:00:37.320
I'm not trying to be this guy, but oh gotta be this guy.

918
01:00:37.400 --> 01:00:42.960
Given the setting, it could be
just poor medical practice. Well, I

919
01:00:43.000 --> 01:00:45.119
think they're just trying to gross us
out watching a gross horror movie. Yeah,

920
01:00:45.199 --> 01:00:47.360
but you heard it everybody. Dave
says, if you live in the

921
01:00:47.400 --> 01:00:51.480
country, you suck. I think
Michael Davis was taking a stand on the

922
01:00:51.480 --> 01:00:54.719
health system with this healthcare system.
Okay, okay, I like that.

923
01:00:55.320 --> 01:01:08.880
Up by it. Do You Even
movie will be right back, Welcome back

924
01:01:08.960 --> 01:01:15.840
to Do You Even Movie. One
of the patrons of the bar tries to

925
01:01:15.880 --> 01:01:19.639
get in a dance with Sarah and
Adam Leon tries to brush him off.

926
01:01:19.639 --> 01:01:22.920
He gets shoved down, and Sarah
quickly teaches this guy a lesson because she

927
01:01:22.960 --> 01:01:24.519
goes to go like, basically,
watch my hands and then kicks him right

928
01:01:24.559 --> 01:01:28.000
in the balls. Yeah, She's
like, watch these hands and not my

929
01:01:28.079 --> 01:01:30.320
foot and then she just kicks him
right in the nuts. Good. But

930
01:01:30.320 --> 01:01:35.800
then I love it. After they're
all Hardley just walks, yeah, bitch,

931
01:01:35.840 --> 01:01:37.519
and then just punches him right in
the face. Sucker punches him right

932
01:01:37.559 --> 01:01:40.679
in the head, right in the
face. Oh God. So, back

933
01:01:40.719 --> 01:01:44.400
in their hotel room, Adam confesses
to Sarah that he likes her, and

934
01:01:44.480 --> 01:01:46.519
Sarah tells him that she's not looking
for a commitment, but maybe Betty Anne

935
01:01:46.519 --> 01:01:50.400
would appreciate a guy with a little
bit more experience. Well, this is

936
01:01:50.440 --> 01:01:52.840
after they've ditched Harley in his own
room. Yeah. Yeah, they kind

937
01:01:52.840 --> 01:01:57.320
of like committed a coup de gras. Yeah, and he didn't realize he

938
01:01:57.400 --> 01:01:59.920
was going to be alone in his
room while they're in there's But yes,

939
01:02:00.119 --> 01:02:05.719
she makes a very strong lawyerly point
about the benefits the pros and con I

940
01:02:05.719 --> 01:02:08.119
would have preferred a PowerPoint presentation.
No, let mean, yeah, but

941
01:02:08.159 --> 01:02:10.559
she still made a good argument.
Still made a good point. So they

942
01:02:10.599 --> 01:02:15.599
start making out and Adam starts getting
a nosebleed and it doesn't to tear,

943
01:02:15.039 --> 01:02:17.800
doesn't deter Sarah at all because she
gets a little blood on her face.

944
01:02:17.840 --> 01:02:21.360
He's got blood come from his nose, and she actually licks at at one

945
01:02:21.360 --> 01:02:23.800
point, well a little bit,
a little bit, so he wipes the

946
01:02:23.840 --> 01:02:29.039
blood off his nose, and that's
when we get into some nice two thousands

947
01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:32.960
kuoitus. Yeah, some no nudity
sex, no nudity sex. So they're

948
01:02:32.960 --> 01:02:37.039
interrupted though by screaming from the woods. As they rush out of their hotel.

949
01:02:37.119 --> 01:02:38.719
They go into the woods and that's
when they find the patron that tried

950
01:02:38.719 --> 01:02:43.239
to dance a Sarah earlier, pleading
for his life as the monster Man is

951
01:02:43.280 --> 01:02:46.400
back with his truck which runs over
his legs, crushing them, which is

952
01:02:46.440 --> 01:02:50.360
which is shocking enough. But then
when it backs up, it comes back

953
01:02:50.400 --> 01:02:54.639
forward. Yeah, it shatters his
head into nothing. So the truck opens

954
01:02:54.639 --> 01:02:57.760
a slide, and that's when we
get another shot of the monster man.

955
01:02:57.840 --> 01:03:00.599
So they run off, screaming again. The next morning, talking to a

956
01:03:00.599 --> 01:03:04.400
police officer played by Robert S.
Jafer, better known as Bob Vance of

957
01:03:04.400 --> 01:03:10.440
Answer Frigeration. Yeah or or Fred
Olin raised cousin cousin. Yes, that's

958
01:03:10.480 --> 01:03:16.719
also true. So I love this
scene not just because the cop is super

959
01:03:16.760 --> 01:03:21.519
funny, but I love this scene
because this this scene makes sure that the

960
01:03:21.559 --> 01:03:25.280
movie's not too stupid, because after
what they witnessed, it would be very

961
01:03:25.320 --> 01:03:29.760
easy to be like, well maybe
they just run away. They'd call the

962
01:03:29.800 --> 01:03:34.280
police. Witnessed this fucking cold blooded
murder. Yeah, they would call the

963
01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:37.840
police. So I love that whole
sequence because it really kind of it grounds

964
01:03:37.920 --> 01:03:43.280
us again before the movie goes completely
off the rails, which it is very

965
01:03:43.280 --> 01:03:45.679
soon, and it also brings up
the roadkill in the hotel room. He's

966
01:03:45.679 --> 01:03:47.360
like, I got a call about
you guys putting kill in a hotel room

967
01:03:47.480 --> 01:03:51.840
and chuckle nuts, looking like you
two leaving roadkill in a room. He's

968
01:03:52.199 --> 01:03:53.719
so funny. So he tells them, you know, get out of my

969
01:03:53.760 --> 01:03:58.039
state or and I want to rest
you. So Sarah questions how long the

970
01:03:58.039 --> 01:04:00.440
monster truck's been following them, and
that's what they tell her. It's a

971
01:04:00.440 --> 01:04:02.039
bit about two days. And Adam
believes that he took a wrong turn at

972
01:04:02.039 --> 01:04:04.639
this point, so he needs to
pull off and check the map to avoid

973
01:04:04.760 --> 01:04:08.559
running into the monster man again because
they can't go back because they're gonna get

974
01:04:08.599 --> 01:04:11.519
arrested if they do, right,
So that's when a man with a severed

975
01:04:11.519 --> 01:04:15.599
limb knocks on their window and he
tells them you're next. That's what's written

976
01:04:15.639 --> 01:04:18.440
on the front of your car.
I love it, You're next, your

977
01:04:18.519 --> 01:04:23.440
next anyway, that's what's written on
your hood anyway, writing on their car

978
01:04:23.480 --> 01:04:29.119
hood in blar next. So he's
telling them again to watch out for the

979
01:04:29.119 --> 01:04:31.400
demon that did this, because he
actually was one that suffered him. And

980
01:04:31.440 --> 01:04:35.000
he tells a story about how there
was a creature that would take the limbs

981
01:04:35.000 --> 01:04:38.679
from the people but leave the victims
alive, and he's been doing this for

982
01:04:38.760 --> 01:04:42.639
years now, right. So the
three get back in the car and Adam

983
01:04:42.679 --> 01:04:45.639
states that they're out of gas,
and that's when they arrive in a ghost

984
01:04:45.639 --> 01:04:49.199
town. But it's not a ghost
town because there's just scarecrows adorned throughout it.

985
01:04:49.639 --> 01:04:53.079
Yeah, not creepy at all,
not creepy at all. And at

986
01:04:53.119 --> 01:04:55.639
the end of the town they find
this little small diner and they go to

987
01:04:55.679 --> 01:04:58.679
get some food. Everything's all cool, they're talking, and that's when the

988
01:04:58.719 --> 01:05:01.119
food's brought out and Adam takes a
bite of his chili, pulls out a

989
01:05:01.239 --> 01:05:04.599
long human hair and then we get
the grossest shot of this chili that has

990
01:05:04.760 --> 01:05:10.639
human teeth. Eyeballs. Oh god, it's just it's so gross. No

991
01:05:10.679 --> 01:05:14.039
subtlety whatsoever none. So they panic
and they run back to the car and

992
01:05:14.039 --> 01:05:16.639
that's when Harley soon finds that the
corpse from last night is also seated in

993
01:05:16.639 --> 01:05:20.039
the back of the car now,
and that's when the monster truck suddenly appears,

994
01:05:20.159 --> 01:05:23.599
chasing them down once again. But
the whole time this chase is going

995
01:05:23.599 --> 01:05:27.199
on, this corpse is just knocking
into Harley. It's very evil, dead

996
01:05:27.239 --> 01:05:30.800
too. Yes, the corpses is
falling into him and he's getting it like

997
01:05:30.880 --> 01:05:33.920
right up against his face and there's
like sticky goose it's gross, very very

998
01:05:33.960 --> 01:05:36.880
funny. So after an intense chase, Adam veers off the road, but

999
01:05:36.920 --> 01:05:40.320
he can't get the car to start, and that's when the truck comes back

1000
01:05:40.320 --> 01:05:43.599
into view and it's heading right for
them. So Adam and Sarah get out

1001
01:05:43.639 --> 01:05:45.639
of the car right as the truck
ramps off this hill onto the car,

1002
01:05:45.960 --> 01:05:48.840
crushing Adam's car and Harley in the
back of it. And that's when we

1003
01:05:48.880 --> 01:05:53.559
also hear Harley deliver the greatest line
of the movie. Oh, a corpse

1004
01:05:53.599 --> 01:05:58.639
burrito man, because we see the
corpse is just smushed right on top of

1005
01:05:58.639 --> 01:06:00.559
this. Yeah, but he's not
killed, not yet kill. So Sarah

1006
01:06:00.559 --> 01:06:03.519
and Adam go to get him free
again in the monster truck's revving up again,

1007
01:06:03.679 --> 01:06:06.360
going off one more time, and
right as they get Harley out,

1008
01:06:06.400 --> 01:06:11.440
the car is crushed completely as the
monster truck drives right over it. So

1009
01:06:11.519 --> 01:06:14.800
that's when they race off into the
woods, and that's when the monster Man

1010
01:06:14.840 --> 01:06:17.639
gets out of his car and they
decide to separate, so Adam tells Sarah

1011
01:06:17.639 --> 01:06:21.159
to run. The monster Man catches
up to Sarah and screams, so she's

1012
01:06:21.199 --> 01:06:25.119
taken away and Adam finds her shoes
in the woods, calling for her.

1013
01:06:25.159 --> 01:06:28.480
And also Harley has been thrown into
a tree and we think he's either dead

1014
01:06:28.800 --> 01:06:31.079
or knocked out. Yeah, he
definitely ain't feeling good. So that's when

1015
01:06:31.079 --> 01:06:33.719
we get to the third act of
Monster Man and buckle up, kids,

1016
01:06:34.159 --> 01:06:41.119
this is where all sanity is not
necessary. So he is calling out to

1017
01:06:41.119 --> 01:06:44.280
Sarah, and Sarah calls back out
to him, so he follows her voice

1018
01:06:44.280 --> 01:06:46.239
to the shack in the woods,
and that's when he sees the Monster Man

1019
01:06:46.239 --> 01:06:49.039
come out of the house. He
watches the Monster Man go over and sharpen

1020
01:06:49.079 --> 01:06:51.920
his knife before heading back into the
house, and that's when Adam decides he's

1021
01:06:51.920 --> 01:06:56.159
gonna arm himself, so he grabs
a shovel and he enters the shack and

1022
01:06:56.199 --> 01:06:59.880
that's when we see the shack is
adorned with severed limbs and pentagrams and blood

1023
01:07:00.159 --> 01:07:04.039
all throughout. Yeah, it's a
it's quite a sight, quite a house

1024
01:07:04.079 --> 01:07:09.280
of horrors. So he also finds
a man whose mid section is completely crushed

1025
01:07:09.280 --> 01:07:13.480
and exposed, who comes to life
stating, good evening, we've been expecting

1026
01:07:13.519 --> 01:07:16.000
you. Thanks for joining us.
Like I said, this is where it's

1027
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:19.159
sanity. Just leave it behind him, So he laughs and he calls to

1028
01:07:19.239 --> 01:07:23.119
brother Bob. As Adam finds Sarah
in the back of the room tied to

1029
01:07:23.159 --> 01:07:25.519
a chair. The monster man,
who is brother Bob, gets in the

1030
01:07:25.519 --> 01:07:28.280
house. As the man tells him
that he's in that room, Adam quickly

1031
01:07:28.320 --> 01:07:30.800
unties Sarah. They share a kiss
and he tries to go for one of

1032
01:07:30.840 --> 01:07:32.360
the windows and he tells Sarah to
give him the shovel. That's when they

1033
01:07:32.360 --> 01:07:36.000
cut back to Sarah, who laughs
swing the shovel, knocking Adam out.

1034
01:07:36.280 --> 01:07:41.760
What the tweets? What that tweeted? So she is on the side of

1035
01:07:41.840 --> 01:07:45.480
the monster people, so whatever they
are. He comes to tied up next

1036
01:07:45.519 --> 01:07:47.440
to the guy whose midsection is missing, and that's what it's revealed that Sarah

1037
01:07:47.480 --> 01:07:49.880
is the sister to brother Fred,
who is the guy with the mid section

1038
01:07:49.960 --> 01:07:54.159
missing, and Bob, who is
the monster man, and Fred tells him

1039
01:07:54.159 --> 01:07:59.760
that Bob one time that some time
ago ran over him accidentally, which caused

1040
01:07:59.840 --> 01:08:02.239
him to get his midsection crush,
but also caused Bob to fly through the

1041
01:08:02.280 --> 01:08:06.559
windshield, so both Bob and Fred
were injured pretty bad, and that's when

1042
01:08:06.559 --> 01:08:11.039
Sarah was able to sew Bob back
up, but she used witchcraft to bring

1043
01:08:11.079 --> 01:08:15.039
Fred back to life, which I
mean is a perfectly reasonable explanation, as

1044
01:08:15.079 --> 01:08:16.600
reasonable as any. Yeah, And
that's when she found out that they have

1045
01:08:16.640 --> 01:08:19.359
to keep the victims alive in order
for the limbs to keep working with the

1046
01:08:19.399 --> 01:08:23.000
body. So there's something in regards
to the soul's working for the limbs to

1047
01:08:23.039 --> 01:08:26.279
keep working, and that Adam is
going to be the new body for Fred,

1048
01:08:26.600 --> 01:08:29.239
and that they've prepared him this whole
movie. And that's when it's revealed

1049
01:08:29.399 --> 01:08:32.800
that Adam was basically sussed out by
Sarah. She was driving the hearse in

1050
01:08:32.840 --> 01:08:38.079
the beginning. She took his virginity, she tasted his blood, she put

1051
01:08:38.119 --> 01:08:41.680
him inside a pentagram. Yeah.
This was also that she could know he

1052
01:08:41.840 --> 01:08:45.239
was the right match, yeah,
to replace her brother's lower half of his

1053
01:08:45.279 --> 01:08:47.239
body. And if you're thinking that
sleeping with roadkill wasn't part of that plan,

1054
01:08:47.399 --> 01:08:51.920
it was goddamn right it was.
So that's when Fred thanks him for

1055
01:08:51.960 --> 01:08:55.000
the body, but questions, you
know, well, since you had sex

1056
01:08:55.039 --> 01:08:57.520
with my sister, does that mean
that I'm gonna be the one to have

1057
01:08:57.560 --> 01:09:00.439
sex with my sister now too?
So there's a whole die a log of

1058
01:09:00.479 --> 01:09:04.399
that, and that's when Adam gets
his hand free slicing Sarah's throat, causing

1059
01:09:04.439 --> 01:09:08.479
Bob to freak out and call and
Fred to call out as well. Monster

1060
01:09:08.520 --> 01:09:11.720
Man rushes at Adam, who takes
his tiny pencil, which we forgot to

1061
01:09:11.760 --> 01:09:14.800
mention the tiny pencil. Well,
there's so many little muddle thing tells we

1062
01:09:14.840 --> 01:09:17.520
didn't mention his velcrow love. Oh
yeah, everything on him is velcrow.

1063
01:09:17.800 --> 01:09:21.079
So he has this, He has
his little diary that he writes his gas

1064
01:09:21.079 --> 01:09:24.560
mileage. Yeah. Yeah. He
keeps a notepad on him so he can

1065
01:09:24.600 --> 01:09:27.199
keep up with his gas miles,
which hardly makes fun of him for he's

1066
01:09:27.199 --> 01:09:30.680
like, you track your gas mileage? Yeah, So he takes the tiny

1067
01:09:30.680 --> 01:09:33.600
pencil, sticks it into one of
Monster Man's eye, and then decides to

1068
01:09:33.600 --> 01:09:36.319
go ahead and stick it in the
other eye as well. So Adam then

1069
01:09:36.319 --> 01:09:41.479
headbuts the pencil into the into the
second eye and slices Fred completely in half,

1070
01:09:41.520 --> 01:09:45.760
as Fred goes down saying, fuck
you, it's so fucking crazy.

1071
01:09:45.800 --> 01:09:47.159
I love this movie. Then Adam
goes to work on the door, but

1072
01:09:47.199 --> 01:09:49.920
Bob holds up the key. The
Monster Man holds up the key and he's

1073
01:09:49.960 --> 01:09:53.279
looking, you know, he's looking
at Adam, and then he just eats

1074
01:09:53.359 --> 01:09:55.640
the key. So now the key
to the front door has been eaten by

1075
01:09:55.640 --> 01:09:58.840
the monster Man and Adam trying to
keep quiet because now monster Man is blind

1076
01:09:58.880 --> 01:10:00.479
in both eyes. But Adam all
so has a bloody nose and monster Man

1077
01:10:00.600 --> 01:10:05.279
smells his blood. This is such
a fuck, it's insane. So that's

1078
01:10:05.319 --> 01:10:10.520
when he tries to work around the
shack. Fred trips him, causing Adam's

1079
01:10:10.520 --> 01:10:14.119
nose to bleed even more profusely,
and Bob comments that the blood scents drawing

1080
01:10:14.159 --> 01:10:17.199
him stronger. So Adam decides to
use the blood from his nose to lead

1081
01:10:17.239 --> 01:10:21.199
the monster Man to this huge piece
of metal sticking out the door, so

1082
01:10:21.239 --> 01:10:24.439
he runs it, puts it all
over the door, and then that's when

1083
01:10:24.439 --> 01:10:26.399
the Monster Man's like, okay,
well I got your cornered, so he

1084
01:10:26.560 --> 01:10:32.279
runs at him and impales himself onto
the door. As you do folks watch

1085
01:10:32.399 --> 01:10:35.720
this movie. So that's when Adam
gets the knife, sticking Bob into the

1086
01:10:35.760 --> 01:10:40.359
gut. He reaches inside his guts, rips out the key, unlocks the

1087
01:10:40.399 --> 01:10:45.079
shack, and Bob follows him out
until that's when Harley returns to the movie

1088
01:10:45.079 --> 01:10:48.159
in the monster truck, running Bob
right the fuck over Harley a dead He

1089
01:10:48.319 --> 01:10:53.960
is not dead at all. So
that's when Harley rises out and he's like,

1090
01:10:53.960 --> 01:10:55.600
hey man, do you want to
you want a chance at this?

1091
01:10:55.760 --> 01:10:59.520
And that's when Adam gets into the
cab and we are at nighttime at this

1092
01:10:59.520 --> 01:11:01.239
point. By the it's nighttime,
yeah, which is another thing I couldn't

1093
01:11:01.239 --> 01:11:05.119
believe I remembered it. Yeah,
So we're at nighttime and Adam just proceeds

1094
01:11:05.119 --> 01:11:09.640
to just drive over Monster Man repeatedly
to the forward, backward, forward.

1095
01:11:09.840 --> 01:11:13.239
The sun comes up and he's still
doing it. The tires are covered in

1096
01:11:13.239 --> 01:11:18.680
gore. Monster Man is just a
pile of bloody of gore hair. And

1097
01:11:18.720 --> 01:11:20.920
that's when you know, Harley's like, you know, hey man, I

1098
01:11:20.960 --> 01:11:24.359
think he got him. I think
we're gonna go. So that's when he

1099
01:11:24.359 --> 01:11:27.479
puts the ornament on the monster truck, which they're now taking. As they

1100
01:11:27.600 --> 01:11:30.119
leave, we also see that Monster
Man is just, like I said,

1101
01:11:30.159 --> 01:11:33.319
a mass and he's talking like hey, I'm still alive, like yeah,

1102
01:11:33.479 --> 01:11:36.600
just just these literally just two lips
on the ground, twolips on the ground

1103
01:11:36.640 --> 01:11:40.439
moving and that's when we get the
title for the end. But we got

1104
01:11:40.479 --> 01:11:44.319
a question mark is the we hear
Fred pipe up the end, he's upset

1105
01:11:44.359 --> 01:11:45.800
because he's still cut in half,
and he also didn't get the fuck his

1106
01:11:45.880 --> 01:11:49.319
sister, and he says, this
sucks. And that's two thousand and threes

1107
01:11:49.880 --> 01:11:55.399
Monster Man. And I gotta say, one of the reasons I think I

1108
01:11:55.479 --> 01:11:58.319
loved this movie so much when I
first saw it, Yeah, and one

1109
01:11:58.319 --> 01:12:01.399
of the reasons I appreciate it now. Yes, none of the main carric

1110
01:12:01.520 --> 01:12:04.159
well, I mean, the one
main character that turns to be a villain

1111
01:12:04.199 --> 01:12:09.560
dies. None of the good guys
die. But and this is a big

1112
01:12:09.600 --> 01:12:14.640
butt satisfying ending. Hell yeah,
like not just not just smushing Monster Man

1113
01:12:14.720 --> 01:12:18.279
into nothingness, but then the two
guys there's a great moment where Adam tells

1114
01:12:18.359 --> 01:12:21.199
him like, you really are a
good friend, and he goes, hey,

1115
01:12:21.279 --> 01:12:25.439
you know you toube bro, And
then they hop in the monster truck

1116
01:12:25.520 --> 01:12:29.359
and drive off into the sun well
sunrise, drive off into the sunrise after

1117
01:12:29.399 --> 01:12:31.640
deciding they're not going to go to
that wedding. Well, they're going to

1118
01:12:31.720 --> 01:12:36.800
go and live their life, their
best life. It's such a satisfying ending

1119
01:12:36.840 --> 01:12:41.319
that the two friends get to be
back together. We didn't have Harley die.

1120
01:12:41.640 --> 01:12:44.960
I mean, granted, yes,
it would have been more of a

1121
01:12:45.000 --> 01:12:49.000
scary movie if Harley had died,
But what a fun ending as is.

1122
01:12:49.520 --> 01:12:51.760
Absolutely so. Would you like to
know what the budget was? You want

1123
01:12:51.760 --> 01:12:57.560
to guess? I mean my guess
was in the two to three range.

1124
01:12:57.600 --> 01:13:01.159
Four million, wow, four million? Yeah, supposedly shot in Santa Clarita,

1125
01:13:01.199 --> 01:13:03.840
California, but you said that's probably
the studio stuff. Yeah, yeah,

1126
01:13:03.880 --> 01:13:08.119
Well, I'm nothing against Santa Clarita, it's just like so much of

1127
01:13:08.119 --> 01:13:10.960
the movies on the Highway. It
looked to me, and I'm not from

1128
01:13:11.000 --> 01:13:15.600
California, it looked to me like
Joshua Tree Area, which I don't know

1129
01:13:15.600 --> 01:13:17.840
actually how far apart they are,
but I bet you Santa Clarita is where

1130
01:13:17.840 --> 01:13:20.720
they had the sets built for the
especially for the third act. Yeah,

1131
01:13:20.840 --> 01:13:24.520
and all of the hotel room scenes
and stuff like that. Just my opinion

1132
01:13:24.560 --> 01:13:27.720
though. So shot over twenty two
days. The monster truck used this film

1133
01:13:27.800 --> 01:13:30.840
was designed and built for twenty five
hundred dollars. The sheet metal covering the

1134
01:13:30.880 --> 01:13:33.760
outside of the truck was actually wood
spray painted to look like a very old,

1135
01:13:33.840 --> 01:13:38.199
rusted sheet metal. The truck only
had a maximum speed of roughly thirty

1136
01:13:38.199 --> 01:13:41.279
miles per hour, so footage of
the truck chasing after the car was sped

1137
01:13:41.359 --> 01:13:44.039
up to make it appear as though
it was capable of very high speeds.

1138
01:13:44.479 --> 01:13:46.800
The truck could only use twenty to
thirty minutes at a time before it would

1139
01:13:46.840 --> 01:13:50.520
overheat and production would be shut down. It also ran on rocket fuel,

1140
01:13:50.520 --> 01:13:56.319
which reported costs the producers three hundred
per gallon. Holy crap. There was

1141
01:13:56.359 --> 01:14:00.000
no steering wheel. The driver was
standing inside the truck using levers to get

1142
01:14:00.000 --> 01:14:05.520
control the speed and the direction.
That is awesome. Holy shit. And

1143
01:14:05.520 --> 01:14:10.680
by the way, that is like
when it comes to movies, using wood

1144
01:14:10.720 --> 01:14:14.920
as fake battle mettle, very common
tactic. The motel scenes were shot at

1145
01:14:14.920 --> 01:14:17.520
a Christian retreat. The owners allowed
the filmmakers to shoot anything they wanted,

1146
01:14:17.520 --> 01:14:25.720
with notable exception of any material involving
Satanic rituals. Well awkward, the film

1147
01:14:25.800 --> 01:14:29.000
pressed was pressed on its title.
Writer and director Michael Davis had to come

1148
01:14:29.079 --> 01:14:31.199
up with a story that fit the
title. Oh okay. The actor who

1149
01:14:31.199 --> 01:14:34.399
played Adam had to wear clothing two
sizes too big in order to fit the

1150
01:14:34.439 --> 01:14:39.359
nerdy image of the cast. Production
wanted Adam to portray I believe that I've

1151
01:14:39.359 --> 01:14:42.000
heard of that before. Yeah,
doing that. The name Betty Ann used

1152
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:45.079
in the movie was inspired by Betty
from the famous Archie comics, because they

1153
01:14:45.079 --> 01:14:46.960
wanted her to be betrayed as the
girl next door that everyone falls in love

1154
01:14:47.000 --> 01:14:50.479
with. Aw And when the film
was released in Latin America, it was

1155
01:14:50.520 --> 01:14:56.199
released under the title Wrong Turn two. Well, there are many wrong turns.

1156
01:14:56.199 --> 01:14:59.479
There are many wrong turns, that
is true. So what are your

1157
01:14:59.600 --> 01:15:02.239
final thoughts on two thousand and threes
much? Well, this one is such

1158
01:15:02.239 --> 01:15:08.840
a nostalgic beast. But I will
say I always give a caveat yeah,

1159
01:15:08.840 --> 01:15:12.720
because I feel like you have to. If you hate gory horror movies,

1160
01:15:12.800 --> 01:15:17.760
don't even stream. But if what
you've heard sounds like your kind of thing,

1161
01:15:18.960 --> 01:15:24.720
definitely rent it. I don't think
it's an own it unless you're unless

1162
01:15:24.720 --> 01:15:28.399
you're just a die hard. But
it is a stream it or a rent

1163
01:15:28.399 --> 01:15:31.039
it. It is a lot of
fun, it's satisfying, it's silly.

1164
01:15:31.159 --> 01:15:35.279
It's a time capsule of a time
that many people have forgotten. Remember,

1165
01:15:35.399 --> 01:15:40.640
Dave, if you watched a film
from two thousand and three today, that's

1166
01:15:40.640 --> 01:15:42.880
like watching a film in two thousand
and three that was made in the nineteen

1167
01:15:42.920 --> 01:15:45.960
eighty. This is also true.
We're all gonna die, gonna We're all

1168
01:15:46.000 --> 01:15:49.720
gonna die soon, so it is
also it's also a rend it for me.

1169
01:15:49.880 --> 01:15:54.119
This is a time capsule of Early
Is two thousand straight to video extreme

1170
01:15:54.119 --> 01:15:57.199
horror. It's a lot of fun. It's the kind of thing that you

1171
01:15:57.319 --> 01:15:59.640
will want to, you know,
hang out with friends, maybe do a

1172
01:15:59.640 --> 01:16:01.600
six pas over. Honestly, Oh, that's a great pizza and beer movie.

1173
01:16:01.680 --> 01:16:04.439
Yeah, And I mean and above
all else it is. It's a

1174
01:16:04.479 --> 01:16:10.840
testament to how insane a plot can
be, but how much fun and sense

1175
01:16:10.840 --> 01:16:13.800
it can still make in the end. The actors made it work great.

1176
01:16:13.880 --> 01:16:15.880
Yeah, I know, it absolutely
is. So yeah, rend it for

1177
01:16:15.960 --> 01:16:17.239
me as well. Well. So
I got a question for you, Dave,

1178
01:16:17.359 --> 01:16:20.760
Yes, sir, how did what
were your thoughts after rewatchingus? You

1179
01:16:20.800 --> 01:16:25.359
saw it later in life, yeah, and then you you just rewatched it

1180
01:16:25.359 --> 01:16:30.399
in HD. Was there anything that
surprised you or anything that are your own

1181
01:16:30.439 --> 01:16:33.800
thoughts? Yeahn I would honestly say
what surprised me the most is the stunt

1182
01:16:33.840 --> 01:16:36.680
work in it. The stunt works
super impressive and I had kind of forgotten

1183
01:16:36.680 --> 01:16:41.359
about it. And also the runtime. I know, I say this when

1184
01:16:41.359 --> 01:16:43.640
it comes to really fun movies.
But the runtime on this really does fly.

1185
01:16:43.840 --> 01:16:45.119
Yeah, it's like ninety minutes.
It's like ninety minutes and you're in

1186
01:16:45.159 --> 01:16:47.760
and out. But what I think
I liked most about it was the monster

1187
01:16:47.800 --> 01:16:50.920
man makeup. I never really noticed
how oh it looks amazing. Yeah,

1188
01:16:51.000 --> 01:16:56.600
everything they they don't do a lot
in the movie, but everything they do

1189
01:16:56.800 --> 01:16:59.359
well. I mean they do do
a lot, but everything they do is

1190
01:16:59.399 --> 01:17:01.199
done well or they don't do it
at all. And I think that's a

1191
01:17:01.239 --> 01:17:05.840
really important lesson to filmmakers. Four
million dollars may sound like a lot,

1192
01:17:05.880 --> 01:17:11.079
but with all of these car chase
scenes and special effects, actors, filming

1193
01:17:11.119 --> 01:17:15.000
in California, filming Union, it's
gonna get expensive very quickly. So the

1194
01:17:15.079 --> 01:17:20.000
fact that you only had a few
monsters and they looked amazing. You only

1195
01:17:20.000 --> 01:17:23.920
had one truck and they made it
look amazing. I still can't believe that

1196
01:17:24.159 --> 01:17:27.920
they built it that way. I
believe it, but it's insanity. I

1197
01:17:28.199 --> 01:17:30.079
wonder like it was it just like, hey, we could call it my

1198
01:17:30.119 --> 01:17:33.920
buddy Brett. He got banned for
life from the Jet Propulsion Lab in Pasadena.

1199
01:17:34.399 --> 01:17:36.479
You know, Like that's the way
it sounds like to me. I

1200
01:17:36.479 --> 01:17:42.800
can see, so Yeah, I
just I can't believe. I hope that

1201
01:17:42.880 --> 01:17:46.640
this film is already gaining a cult
following, and if it doesn't have one,

1202
01:17:46.680 --> 01:17:49.239
I hope that people start discovering it. I would love it if one

1203
01:17:49.239 --> 01:17:55.279
of the boutique labels would yeah,
or even or even lions Gate's own Vestaurant

1204
01:17:55.399 --> 01:17:58.960
or some shit like. I would
love to see it come out on Blu

1205
01:17:59.079 --> 01:18:02.399
Ray so that collectctors of horror movies
can appreciate it even more. Yeah,

1206
01:18:02.600 --> 01:18:05.560
yeah, just kick ass movie.
So we like to end the show always

1207
01:18:05.560 --> 01:18:09.680
with a couple of recommendations, my
two this week. Kicking off The first

1208
01:18:09.680 --> 01:18:13.720
one is one that I've already mentioned
in this podcast because this movie I feel

1209
01:18:13.760 --> 01:18:16.760
has a lot in common with Monster
Man from its plot design, a little

1210
01:18:16.800 --> 01:18:19.760
bit to some of its reveals,
and that is The Hills Run Red from

1211
01:18:19.760 --> 01:18:23.760
two thousand and nine. A group
of young horror fans go searching for a

1212
01:18:23.760 --> 01:18:27.479
film that mysteriously vanished years ago,
but instead find that the demented killer from

1213
01:18:27.479 --> 01:18:30.680
the movie is real and he's thrilled
to meet fans who will die gruesomely for

1214
01:18:30.760 --> 01:18:32.680
his art. Yeah. I cannot
recommend Hills Run Red enough. A great

1215
01:18:32.680 --> 01:18:38.239
William Sadler performance. A really fun
movie if you are a fan of like

1216
01:18:38.319 --> 01:18:42.800
the eighties horror movie We God Game. It was that thing. I'm trying

1217
01:18:42.800 --> 01:18:45.760
to think homage, Oh yeah,
definitely, yeah, although much more violent,

1218
01:18:46.000 --> 01:18:48.560
much more violent. And then the
other one I'm gonna give is another

1219
01:18:48.880 --> 01:18:53.159
vehicular horror called Highwayman from two thousand
and four. This is one not a

1220
01:18:53.159 --> 01:18:56.279
lot of people have seen. That
stars Jim Caviezel. He plays Ready Cray

1221
01:18:56.319 --> 01:18:59.239
embarks on a bloodthirsty rampage to avenge
the death of his wife, who was

1222
01:18:59.239 --> 01:19:01.760
struck down by Killer, a man
who hunts and kills women using his seventy

1223
01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:05.960
two El Dorado. Highwayman is one
that not a lot of people have seen.

1224
01:19:06.000 --> 01:19:09.920
As I said, it's definitely worth
a watch, and above all else,

1225
01:19:10.000 --> 01:19:13.760
it's got a really really strong third
act. Okay, so I highly

1226
01:19:13.760 --> 01:19:16.279
recommend high Wayman. What's your recommendation? The one that you wish you'd recommended?

1227
01:19:16.520 --> 01:19:23.159
Highway to Hell to Hell from nineteen
ninety one. The description on IMDb

1228
01:19:23.279 --> 01:19:26.560
is not much and the loping bride
is taken into Hell and her fiance must

1229
01:19:26.560 --> 01:19:29.920
pursue It is a whack a doo
of a movie. Oh yeah. There

1230
01:19:29.960 --> 01:19:36.199
is literally a scene where they show
the road of Hell being paved with good

1231
01:19:36.199 --> 01:19:40.960
intentions. It is, it is
indeed, but they make it literal.

1232
01:19:41.119 --> 01:19:45.960
Yes, yes they do. Gilbert
Gottfried plays eight alf as Hitler. You

1233
01:19:45.960 --> 01:19:50.960
you what do you need? Ben
Stiller, Jerry Stiller got it. There's

1234
01:19:51.000 --> 01:19:54.039
a bunch. There's a bunch of
people in this movie. And this movie

1235
01:19:54.279 --> 01:19:58.159
was notorious for the longest time because
of the cover of the cop the cop

1236
01:19:58.159 --> 01:20:00.239
at c J. Graham right,
yeah, Yeah, who was Jason in

1237
01:20:00.279 --> 01:20:04.439
Part six? This cover was a
Fangoria cover that people remembered because this movie

1238
01:20:04.760 --> 01:20:09.439
didn't really get a wide It just
kind of came out on just kind of

1239
01:20:09.439 --> 01:20:14.119
came out. Yeah. So it
was one that Kino lovingly released for us

1240
01:20:14.159 --> 01:20:16.399
like several years back. And I
cannot remember how. I mean, we

1241
01:20:16.439 --> 01:20:19.399
had such a good time with it. I was not prepared for How Whack

1242
01:20:19.439 --> 01:20:23.239
You Be. There's basically a Hell
cop, yeah, played by c.

1243
01:20:23.359 --> 01:20:27.520
J. Graham, who is chasing
who kidnaps his girlfriend, yeah, and

1244
01:20:27.560 --> 01:20:30.720
then is chasing down the fiances.
He's trying to scare it to save her.

1245
01:20:30.800 --> 01:20:32.920
It's basically fouls. It's basically yeah, and it's really really fun,

1246
01:20:32.960 --> 01:20:36.479
really fun, probably coming to the
show at some point if we can even

1247
01:20:36.520 --> 01:20:39.920
manage to talk about it, if
we start scraping the barrel like all the

1248
01:20:39.920 --> 01:20:43.000
Blu Ray companies. Yeah, you
know, so that is gonna do it

1249
01:20:43.039 --> 01:20:45.439
for Monster ban this week. Would
you like to know what we're talking about

1250
01:20:45.520 --> 01:20:48.800
next week? Absolutely not. Well, we are capping off our summer Favorites

1251
01:20:48.880 --> 01:20:53.640
month with one of the ultimate summer
horror movies. I know what you did

1252
01:20:53.720 --> 01:21:00.319
last summer, Yeah, nineteen ninety
seven. Hush, hush to get that.

1253
01:21:04.720 --> 01:21:09.119
So that is what's gonna be happening
next week on do You even movie?

1254
01:21:09.159 --> 01:21:12.479
It might just happen. It might
well. Real quick, we have

1255
01:21:12.479 --> 01:21:15.239
an email. We have an email
we do from our good buddy birdman,

1256
01:21:15.439 --> 01:21:18.399
Mike Uy. He may have he
may have told me about this. Oh

1257
01:21:18.479 --> 01:21:20.039
we'll shut up. Not all,
but no, I just told me a

1258
01:21:20.039 --> 01:21:25.800
little. The subject line is the
chances are low but not zero. Here

1259
01:21:25.800 --> 01:21:28.520
we go, Hey, gentlemen.
So I had a thought while listening to

1260
01:21:28.600 --> 01:21:32.079
your latest podcast on Twister and chatting
with my wife. My wife, Blair

1261
01:21:32.079 --> 01:21:35.239
and I used to chase storms and
she has a bit of a background of

1262
01:21:35.319 --> 01:21:40.159
meteorology, and she gave me an
interesting fact. Not to be rude,

1263
01:21:40.159 --> 01:21:44.279
but I just imagine that the storms
in Canada are too polite to be interesting.

1264
01:21:44.920 --> 01:21:46.439
Like a tornado would form and be
like, hey, do you mind

1265
01:21:46.439 --> 01:21:48.960
if I destroy your homemade and they'd
be like, oh no, we like

1266
01:21:49.000 --> 01:21:51.920
our homie, Like okay, I'll
go over to this infrafield. Then bye

1267
01:21:53.159 --> 01:21:58.520
bye poutine. Later, flying debris
is how a lot of tornadoes actually kill

1268
01:21:58.560 --> 01:22:01.159
people, absolutely true. Glass,
rocks, et cetera, you know,

1269
01:22:01.239 --> 01:22:05.760
stuff on the ground. This triggered
the memory of the barn and Twister,

1270
01:22:05.880 --> 01:22:11.119
with all the farming equipment and all
the Looney Tunes level of insane violence that

1271
01:22:11.159 --> 01:22:15.680
could have happened. Now follow down
to my thought experiment. No, it's

1272
01:22:15.760 --> 01:22:20.680
not rocks or flying two bai fours
or shards of glass. Dramatic pause,

1273
01:22:24.359 --> 01:22:30.479
it's dildo's butt plugs and vibrators cutting
through the air like a sexy projectile.

1274
01:22:30.560 --> 01:22:36.319
Enjoy. However, there is one
thing that can withstand the awe inspiring nature

1275
01:22:38.000 --> 01:22:44.479
of the inspiring might of nature's fury, and the only thing that could truly

1276
01:22:44.520 --> 01:22:47.920
say, Bill Paxton and Helen Hunt, do you know what it is?

1277
01:22:49.720 --> 01:22:58.359
Dave's missing yellow belt. Goddamn it? Love you, love you and enjoy

1278
01:22:58.399 --> 01:23:02.239
the thought of a giant butt plug. I'm bailing carry ls same scream but

1279
01:23:02.399 --> 01:23:06.880
sexy bye. And then he included
a photo of a wall from a sex

1280
01:23:06.920 --> 01:23:15.920
toy shop. How much for the
platform inside Joe Scots So I want to

And even the do You Even Movie? T shirt which no one's ordered yet,

1295
01:24:09.119 --> 01:24:13.359
bastard. Yeah, it's a do
You Even Movie? Dot com?

1296
01:24:13.399 --> 01:24:15.720
So, Dave, you have anything
you want to say before we get the

1297
01:24:15.760 --> 01:24:17.199
hell out of here and go see
Long Leg. I think that is it

1298
01:24:17.239 --> 01:24:20.520
for this week, but just one
more, one more push for Monster Man.

1299
01:24:20.800 --> 01:24:26.159
This has really not been available to
stream since since I've had my DVD,

1300
01:24:26.239 --> 01:24:30.359
which is at least fifteen years.
So if you liked what you heard

1301
01:24:30.439 --> 01:24:31.439
in this and you're still like,
well, it can't be that crazy,

1302
01:24:31.720 --> 01:24:34.680
check it out for yourself. It's
crazier than you think. Yeah, and

1303
01:24:34.920 --> 01:24:40.079
inglorious high definition that it is.
So that's going to do it for us

1304
01:24:40.159 --> 01:24:44.920
this week. We'll see you next
time with I Know what you did last

1305
01:24:44.920 --> 01:24:46.680
summer and Dave, I know what
you did last summer. Everybody does,

1306
01:24:46.720 --> 01:24:50.239
and you should have found your goddamn
yellow belt a long time ago. We'll

1307
01:24:50.239 --> 01:24:53.720
see you guys next Tuesday. Next
Tuesday,
