The Definitive List of Halloween Films to Watch

WEBVTT

1
00:00:10.439 --> 00:00:13.599
Hey, everybody, all my spookies
out there is of course you're a host

2
00:00:13.679 --> 00:00:18.480
Enrique Kuto here with a weekly spooky
bonus bit of sorts, although I guess

3
00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:21.600
a bit is probably not fair because
it seems like a lot. I noticed

4
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:27.160
you made a spreadsheet. I am
here with my good buddy and Freddie's Nightmares

5
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:33.679
podcast co host David Denoyer, and
we are going to talk about some must

6
00:00:33.759 --> 00:00:38.079
watch films that we are for the
Halloween season. So if you're listening to

7
00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:42.759
this and it's it should be early
in October when this airs, and you

8
00:00:43.200 --> 00:00:48.439
need some guidance on what to enjoy
for your Halloween season, get out a

9
00:00:48.479 --> 00:00:53.960
piece of paper and a pencil,
because I made Dave come up with some

10
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:57.840
and wholly molly, seriously, you've
got a spreadsheet. Yes, I have

11
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.560
a spreadsheet in front of me.
Yes, broken into four cars. Mind

12
00:01:00.560 --> 00:01:03.760
you too, that's worrisome, Like
you have problems emotionally, dude. It

13
00:01:03.799 --> 00:01:07.920
was hard to call this down even
because I called you last night and I

14
00:01:07.959 --> 00:01:08.719
was like, listen, like,
here's where I'm at with the number.

15
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:11.599
What's a good cut off? And
I was like, just fifteen per categories

16
00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:15.840
sound fine? You're like, oh
yeah, that's Max. That's yeah.

17
00:01:15.879 --> 00:01:18.120
Yeah. I was like, yeah, you were like, should I add

18
00:01:18.120 --> 00:01:23.200
anymore? I'm like, please,
less is better please. So but before

19
00:01:23.200 --> 00:01:26.040
we go to this, so Dave
and I we do a podcast together we've

20
00:01:26.079 --> 00:01:29.480
been doing for just about a year
as of right now called Welcome to Primetime

21
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:33.920
of Freddy's Nightmares podcast where we watch
every single episode of Freddy's Nightmares, the

22
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:37.120
Freddy Krueger anthology show that many of
you are probably going, what what?

23
00:01:38.480 --> 00:01:41.040
We watch every episode, We break
it apart, we make some jokes,

24
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:44.359
we have some good times. It's
a really fun show. Yeah, and

25
00:01:44.439 --> 00:01:47.319
it's almost wrapped up. Yeah,
we are getting to the nitty gritty of

26
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.319
it. So, and I plugged
it once or twice on Weekly Spooky,

27
00:01:49.359 --> 00:01:52.599
but not heavily. So I just
want to mention that. And so this

28
00:01:52.640 --> 00:01:57.719
is Dave's first time over here on
Weekly Spooky because Dave is my movie nerd

29
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:00.719
buddy, I mean, because we
are both movie nerds, my movie near

30
00:02:00.760 --> 00:02:05.400
buddy. But just to be safe, I did bring some soundboard stuff,

31
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:07.560
so like, if you make a
bad suggestion or a good suggestion, I

32
00:02:07.639 --> 00:02:10.800
was wondering, I have things.
Yeah. Also I could do one where

33
00:02:10.840 --> 00:02:16.879
if you make a suggestion. I
could be like hello anybody, No,

34
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:23.120
yeah, that would be fair enough. So all right, we're gonna we're

35
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:27.800
gonna dive into it. Tho,
these are suggestions for your Halloween viewing,

36
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:30.479
Yes they are. And what do
we have is number one? WI all

37
00:02:30.560 --> 00:02:32.240
right, so we have, like
I said previously, broken this up into

38
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:36.599
four categories. We have family scares, which are basically films to watch with

39
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:39.360
the entire family, Seasonal rewatches,
which are personal picks that I try to

40
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:44.639
get into. My October Underrated Halloween, which is horror films that take place

41
00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:46.960
on Halloween that you may or may
not know about, which are the perfect

42
00:02:46.960 --> 00:02:51.240
spooky feel. And then my final
is the Halloween muss and the Halloween muss

43
00:02:51.240 --> 00:02:53.360
Are. It's October thirty. First, you know, you've had the trick

44
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:55.800
or treaters, You've you've had your
fun, and now you just want to

45
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:59.159
settle in with a movie. And
this is a great list to go off

46
00:02:59.199 --> 00:03:02.680
of. So diving into first on
family scares, we have nineteen nineteen sixty

47
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:07.759
seven's Mad Monster Party, which is
a Ranking Bass feature film that they did,

48
00:03:07.159 --> 00:03:13.000
which is basically animal Some people don't
know what Rank and bassans that's the

49
00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:17.039
only reason I'm interjecting. Yeah.
Yeah, it's a cartoon cartoon monster special

50
00:03:17.120 --> 00:03:22.120
that is super fun, super fun. Yeah. So you have Doctor Frankenstein

51
00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:24.280
decides he's going to retire from the
monster making business. He calls an international

52
00:03:24.360 --> 00:03:29.319
roster of monsters to a creepy convention
to elect his successor. Everyone is there,

53
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.599
including Dracula, the Werewolf, the
Creature, Doctor Jekyll, Mister Hyde,

54
00:03:31.599 --> 00:03:36.000
and so many more. But Frankenstein's
title is not all that's at stake.

55
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:38.879
The famous doctor has also discovered a
secret of total destruction that must not

56
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.599
fall into the wrong hands. Say
say what? Indeed, And one of

57
00:03:43.639 --> 00:03:46.159
the big picks for this for me
is Boris Karloff is the voice of Doctor

58
00:03:46.199 --> 00:03:52.080
Frankenstein. Oh very nice. Yes, So that is a great one and

59
00:03:52.120 --> 00:03:53.639
great family film. There's some songs. It's got that whole field to it,

60
00:03:53.680 --> 00:03:57.360
like Rudolf the Red Nose Reindeer,
Santa clauscum Town, same guys.

61
00:03:57.360 --> 00:04:00.800
It's a musical. Yeah yeah,
yeah, so Mad Monster Party is definitely

62
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:03.719
one I would say is great when
you've got the little ones. Yeah,

63
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:06.560
So, I'm sorry, it's not
a cartoon that's animated animates, it's a

64
00:04:06.800 --> 00:04:12.080
stop motion animation. So it's definitely
if you love the ranking mass cartoons like

65
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.480
or animations like Rudolph and stuff like
that, this is something to check out.

66
00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:19.439
Sadly, it didn't take off as
well as the Christmas ones, so

67
00:04:19.439 --> 00:04:24.360
they only made the one that I
know of. Yeah, So moving on

68
00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:26.600
to the next one in the family
category. Okay, so all of these

69
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:30.439
are gonna be family first break down
like that. I like that. Yeah,

70
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:32.319
moving on, we have two thousand
and six is Monster House. This

71
00:04:32.480 --> 00:04:35.279
is a great family film. I
actually had the pleasure of seeing this in

72
00:04:35.319 --> 00:04:40.160
theaters because this when I when this
came out, I would have been God

73
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.439
in two thousand and six, you
would have been three years old, three

74
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:46.600
years old, two years old,
so one and a half years old.

75
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:49.040
Your father would be sleeping with your
mothers during the film. This is a

76
00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:53.879
great little movie about three teens discover
that their neighbor's house is really a living,

77
00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:58.120
breathing, scary monster. And basically
what happens is you've got three kids

78
00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:00.399
that decide that they're going to investigate
the house. So they start going into

79
00:05:00.439 --> 00:05:02.480
the house, they start spying on
the house. It's kind of like a

80
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:05.160
little bit of Disturbia. But this
has a lot of great gags, a

81
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:10.240
lot of great characters. It stars. In regards of voice acting, you've

82
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:14.519
got like Steve Buscemi's in it,
Mitchell Musos, Sam Lerner, and it

83
00:05:14.560 --> 00:05:17.399
was done by Gil Keenan who also
did there was one big movie on his

84
00:05:17.439 --> 00:05:20.160
resume that Ghostbusters. Ever like,
he was one of the writers on that.

85
00:05:20.399 --> 00:05:24.759
Okay, yeah, Ghostbusters after Life. It's a really really fun one,

86
00:05:25.040 --> 00:05:28.519
super good for the kids. And
as of this recording, it is

87
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:31.639
available I believe on Hulu. Yeah, okay, cool. So moving on

88
00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:34.720
down the list, we also have
Hotel Transylvania, one of my personal favorites.

89
00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:41.800
In twenty twelve, I am a
massive Hotel Transylvania fan. I saw

90
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:46.639
Hotel Transylvania two in the theater with
me. No, yes, no,

91
00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:49.399
that was three. No, it
was two. I remember it was two

92
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:53.759
because it was because we were laughing
about the slurpy scene together and when they

93
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:56.120
go, sure it was two.
Then then it was one that I saw

94
00:05:56.160 --> 00:05:58.839
by myself. Okay, theater because
I saw one of them. Yeah,

95
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:02.480
where literally I was the only adult, and man, I'm not surprised.

96
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:04.920
Sadly, it didn't do super well. The box office. From what I

97
00:06:04.920 --> 00:06:09.959
recall, I always packed with mothers
and their children. That's my point.

98
00:06:10.040 --> 00:06:12.680
My point is that when I went
to see the first Hotel Transylvania in the

99
00:06:12.680 --> 00:06:16.399
theater, yeah, I was a
creare a creed and I was laughing my

100
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:23.439
butt off. I do not say
Bles Sandler is Dracula, which sounds awful,

101
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.959
but it works awesome. Kevin James
is Frankenstein. You've got what is?

102
00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:30.759
I think Cilo Green's the Mummy in
this one before he got replaced.

103
00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:34.319
Might be right, I think you
might be U's the Wolfman. Fran Dressner

104
00:06:34.439 --> 00:06:39.879
is Frankenstein's wife. It's a super
fun movie where basically Frankenstein has decided or

105
00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:44.879
Dracula has decided, to move away
entirely from the human population. He makes

106
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:47.079
this resort out in the middle of
nowhere, invites all the monsters all year

107
00:06:47.160 --> 00:06:50.680
round, and then he has this
big bash for his daughter's birthday and a

108
00:06:50.879 --> 00:06:56.240
kind of creature bash, yeah,
creature bash, A mad monster party,

109
00:06:56.439 --> 00:07:01.800
a graveyard party, he would work
bash, and he invites everybody out to

110
00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:05.360
celebrate his daughter, Mayvis's birthday.
And what happens is you have a human

111
00:07:05.480 --> 00:07:10.680
that ends up wandering his way into
the Castle played by Andy Sandberg. Oh

112
00:07:10.759 --> 00:07:15.720
yeah, yeah, And I just
found Hotel Transylvania to be charming as all

113
00:07:15.759 --> 00:07:17.879
get out. I just really enjoyed
it. It's a super fun one and

114
00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:20.759
it's got it's got a little bit
of everything. You've got laughs with the

115
00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:25.600
monster, You've got so many monsters, and like callbacks and not callbacks,

116
00:07:25.639 --> 00:07:28.879
but references to other films. It's
like the Blob, there's a blob,

117
00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:32.680
there's man, there's so And would
you recommend all of the Hotel Transylvania films?

118
00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:36.160
I would recommend one through three.
The one they did for Amazon Prime,

119
00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:40.560
which was a trans Morphia, was
not great. They replaced one.

120
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:42.759
They replaced a lot of the cast, and you can kind of tell.

121
00:07:43.079 --> 00:07:45.360
That's like I would hope you can
kind of tell they replaced a lot of

122
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:47.759
casts. You can't tell because actors
are cattle and they don't matter. But

123
00:07:49.800 --> 00:07:54.040
so, yeah, Hotel Transylvania is
a great one. And to my knowledge

124
00:07:54.040 --> 00:07:57.199
at this date, I believe all
of them are on Hulu. If I'm

125
00:07:57.199 --> 00:08:00.000
not mistaken, let me at check. Yeah, they are on Hulu right

126
00:08:00.079 --> 00:08:01.839
now. So those are definitely great
too. Moving on down the list,

127
00:08:01.879 --> 00:08:05.160
we have a absolute classic. Two
thousand and four is Halloween Town, the

128
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:11.000
famous Disney Movie channel or Disney Channel
movie. So the Disney TV movie.

129
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:15.199
Yes, Halloween Town starring Debbie Reynolds, Kimberly Jay Brown, and oh,

130
00:08:15.240 --> 00:08:16.519
according to this was nineteen ninety eight, so my notes are wrong, so

131
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:22.279
I'm stupid. Well they're learning.
The IMDb synopsis says, when a young

132
00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:26.120
girl living with her secret witch mother
learns she too is a witch, she

133
00:08:26.199 --> 00:08:28.759
must help her grandmother save Halloween Town
from the evil forces. Basically, the

134
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:33.399
grandma comes to visit one night,
the daughter follows her onto the bus and

135
00:08:33.480 --> 00:08:35.799
ends up in Halloween Town, which
is a town that is Halloween all year

136
00:08:35.840 --> 00:08:39.399
long. Even more so, the
Nightmare Before Christmas, which actually did not

137
00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:41.240
make this list. Mind you what, well, it's a Christmas movie.

138
00:08:41.919 --> 00:08:46.639
So night Were Before Christmas is a
Christmas movie. I've actually had that debate

139
00:08:46.559 --> 00:08:52.639
it is. It is okay if
you want to watch it at Halloween time.

140
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:56.360
Yeah, but it is a Christmas
movie. It's a movie about Christmas.

141
00:08:56.440 --> 00:09:00.879
Yeah, that doesn't mean that it
doesn't have Halloween fun and feels and

142
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:05.399
stuff like, it's just like just
because Home Alone is a Christmas movie doesn't

143
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.279
mean you can't just watch Home alone. This is because you love Home alone

144
00:09:09.320 --> 00:09:11.039
and it makes you happy. This
is very true. Yeah, And to

145
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:16.000
give a little bit more ooms to
Halloweentown. The director is Dwayne Dunham.

146
00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:18.720
He was the director of Little Giants. I Love Little Giants. I love

147
00:09:18.720 --> 00:09:22.919
Little Giants too. He also did
several other Disney Channel movies, such as

148
00:09:22.960 --> 00:09:26.679
Thirteenth Year, Double Team. A
lot of good ones on there. Halloweentown

149
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:28.759
is on a Disney Plus of course, so you can catch at anytime perfect

150
00:09:28.759 --> 00:09:31.600
one, and the sequels aren't too
bad too. I'm not a big fan

151
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:37.240
of Halloweentown High, but the first
three solid, Wow, hateful, Dave

152
00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:41.240
over So Halloweentown that is a great
and that one's of course is on like

153
00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:43.799
Disney plus plus. Yeah. And
then moving down the list, let's go

154
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:48.799
to nineteen ninety five's Casper. Of
course, who doesn't love Casper? We

155
00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:52.360
have I enjoy anything about a dead
child. You know, I love this

156
00:09:52.399 --> 00:09:56.039
movie. But the more the older
I get and the more I watch this,

157
00:09:56.080 --> 00:10:00.120
there's some seriously messed up moments in
this flay. I love Casp for

158
00:10:00.200 --> 00:10:05.519
the friendly ghost, but there's always
this element of sad because it's about a

159
00:10:05.639 --> 00:10:11.080
child ghost who is clearly Richie Rich. But well, we don't have to

160
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:13.799
go into my conspiracy theory theories right
now. God, what I mean,

161
00:10:15.519 --> 00:10:18.919
I've heard, I've heard, it's
not wrong, it's not fun. Yeah,

162
00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:20.679
I just mostly stole it from The
Simpsons, like all references they make.

163
00:10:22.000 --> 00:10:24.679
But no, I love that that
Casper movie in particular, you're talking

164
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:28.039
about the one from the late nineties
with Eric Idol, Bill Pullman, Christina

165
00:10:28.159 --> 00:10:33.200
Ritchie, Kathy Kathy MURARTI yeah,
God, I can't and like the name

166
00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:35.720
and this it's a great film.
It's super super fun. And the one

167
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:39.399
thing I love about Casper is it
as a little bit of everything because even

168
00:10:39.399 --> 00:10:43.519
though you don't start on Halloween,
you get to Halloween at the end,

169
00:10:43.840 --> 00:10:46.159
you have a lot of family laughs, there's a lot of good stuff with

170
00:10:46.200 --> 00:10:48.159
a ghost, and Bill Pullman is
probably at the top of his game in

171
00:10:48.159 --> 00:10:52.159
this. I would say it's my
favorite of his performance. And you know,

172
00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:54.480
I do want to mention I'm not
going to look at your list ahead

173
00:10:54.759 --> 00:11:00.320
because that would require me to do
prep for this podcast. But but hey,

174
00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:03.720
thirty one was it's like the David
pumpkins say, hey, thirty one

175
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:09.679
days of horror, what of you
weekly spookies? Thank you for for spending

176
00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:13.080
this October with us. But there
is one that I'm not gonna mention it

177
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:15.799
yet. But if it's not on
your list, you're gonna be in trouble.

178
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:18.320
That's fair. That's that's entirely like
deep trouble. We will will get

179
00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:22.240
there. Okay. So Casper the
Friendly Ghost, it's definitely available on Peacock.

180
00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:26.320
Yes, uh so we're gonna mention. So we're gonna mention like the

181
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:31.399
immediate place you could check it out. Yeah, that's that's not free,

182
00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:33.159
but like if you have a membership, it doesn't cost you any extra and

183
00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:37.559
from there it's up to you.
All right, So what's snack? So

184
00:11:37.720 --> 00:11:39.360
one of the ones that you and
I had a huge blast with with both

185
00:11:39.399 --> 00:11:43.440
its original and its sequen Theaters twenty
fifteens. R. L. Stein's Goosebumps.

186
00:11:43.960 --> 00:11:50.960
I I loved both of the Goosebumps
movies. I'm really curious what the

187
00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:54.559
heck this Disney series is gonna because
nervous, it doesn't seem like it's gonna

188
00:11:54.639 --> 00:11:58.519
capture the essence this one. I
could talk about a lot because I love.

189
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:05.200
I mean, next week we're gonna
have Cameron Cheney from Library Maccaban and

190
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:09.720
he's going to talk about his favorite
Halloween Time books and then also a few

191
00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:11.639
of his favorite movies too, and
we talk a lot about arl Stein and

192
00:12:11.720 --> 00:12:16.919
Chris Pike. And I have always
loved arl Stein's books. I have always

193
00:12:16.960 --> 00:12:20.519
loved the spooky stuff that he puts
out for kids and for teens and young

194
00:12:20.559 --> 00:12:26.240
adults. I think that the Fear
Street series they did on Netflix was phenomenal

195
00:12:26.559 --> 00:12:30.240
and I love this. So this
version, for those who have not checked

196
00:12:30.279 --> 00:12:33.720
out the Goosebumps movie, this is
not a Goosebumps book turned into a movie.

197
00:12:33.759 --> 00:12:39.840
This is a story about arl Stein
being in hiding. Yes, because

198
00:12:39.879 --> 00:12:43.679
his books can come to life,
the original manuscripts can come to life,

199
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:50.039
and it's about one of those manuscripts
getting loose with Slappy, the crazy dummy,

200
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:52.600
and he of course is the most
evil leader. In fact, one

201
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:56.320
of the things I love about about
Slappy watching the movie a couple more times

202
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.320
is Slappy's voice is all so Jack
Black. Jack Black plays Aryl Stein.

203
00:13:01.480 --> 00:13:05.759
But the reason they did that,
in my opinion, is because Slappy is

204
00:13:05.840 --> 00:13:09.960
like arl Stein's It is yes,
it's like arl Stein. The worst of

205
00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:13.399
arl Stein. He wrote as Slappy, So when Slappy gets loose, it's

206
00:13:13.440 --> 00:13:16.360
like having evil rl Stein loose and
terrorizing a town. What I love.

207
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:20.720
He calls him Papa the entire time, and just like he keeps mocking him.

208
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:22.799
But yeah, Hendricks is absolutely dead
on. Basically what happens is this

209
00:13:22.919 --> 00:13:26.080
kid moves into a new town with
his mom. He lives next door to

210
00:13:26.159 --> 00:13:30.120
arl Stein, who is secretly in
hiding, who also has a niece,

211
00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:35.399
and they suspect that something's up with
Jack Black because he's just so weird.

212
00:13:33.840 --> 00:13:37.039
And yes, there's been some disturbances
going out the house, so they end

213
00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:39.559
up going over the house, and
yeah, they end up knocking all the

214
00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:45.720
sealed manuscripts off the shelf and releasing
basically every single Goosebumps monster and you could

215
00:13:45.759 --> 00:13:50.039
hope and if you are a long
time reader of the Goosebumps books, so

216
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:52.200
much pays off. Yeah, but
I don't want to spoil anything. And

217
00:13:52.200 --> 00:13:56.120
that's available on Netflix in the United
States. All of these are in the

218
00:13:56.200 --> 00:13:58.759
United States. If you're somewhere else, you gotta do the Google in yourself.

219
00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:03.720
And I will say, before we
get deeper, into it that Peacock

220
00:14:03.879 --> 00:14:07.639
especially is unleashing an October lineup,
that a lot of these are going to

221
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:09.720
be falling under two hopefully. Yeah, Peacock has a lot going on this

222
00:14:09.759 --> 00:14:13.039
Halloween. So Goosebumps twenty fifteen.
Moving on, let's go back to a

223
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:20.039
classic with the Ghost and Mister Chicken. Oh man, Yes, well,

224
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:24.240
well what do you mean you're a
ghost? So nineteen sixty six we have

225
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.480
a timid tipster, hasn't a ghost
of a chance of becoming a reporter until

226
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.639
he decides to solve a murder mystery
and ends up spending a fright filled night

227
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:35.360
in a haunted house. This is
Don Knots at his peak for his cinematic

228
00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:37.759
career, because everybody knew him,
of course as Barney on Andy Urfic Show.

229
00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:41.960
Of course, his shaky has Gun
in the West series, The Reluctant

230
00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:45.200
Last or Not, the Incredible Mister
Lippet, those are all great, But

231
00:14:45.200 --> 00:14:48.159
the ghost in Mister Chicken is one
of my absolute favorites. That was always

232
00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:52.039
on Halloween growing up as a kid. He never did he didn't do any

233
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:54.240
big Christmas movies did he not that
I can think of. This is like

234
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:58.879
his only Evergreen film. Yeah,
because it's always pops up around Halloween.

235
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:03.039
I had a teacher when I was
in middle school or high school who would

236
00:15:03.159 --> 00:15:05.679
always show the Ghost of Mister Chicken
if to reward us we got our work

237
00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:09.440
done early in October. We'd watch
like a chunk of it, and then

238
00:15:09.440 --> 00:15:11.879
we'd watch the next chunk the next
day. And I've always loved the Ghost

239
00:15:11.879 --> 00:15:18.480
of Mister Chicken. Last year,
Spengouli showed it and I actually dropped everything

240
00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:20.840
to watch it. Oh yeah.
And also what I love about it is

241
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.559
Alan Rafkin is the director on it. He was the director of forty eight

242
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:28.720
episodes of The Gary Shandling Show.
Not to mention coach Murphy Brown, it's

243
00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:35.039
scary Shandogy. It's not the Gary
Shandley Show. It's Gary Shandling's show.

244
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:37.240
Yes, my apology, it's the
title is as meta as the film.

245
00:15:39.080 --> 00:15:41.600
The Alan Rafkin, he did a
lot of great stuff. And where is

246
00:15:41.639 --> 00:15:45.559
that available? Right? The Ghost
Chicken is available to rent on Prime and

247
00:15:45.720 --> 00:15:50.600
is not streaming anywhere in regards of
quote unquote free with a subscription, so

248
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:52.759
Ghost of Mister Chicken. But you
could definitely rent it definitely wherever you like

249
00:15:52.840 --> 00:15:56.120
to rent your movies. And it's
been a cheap blue ray for a while

250
00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:58.000
too. I know for a while
it's been one of those you can pick

251
00:15:58.039 --> 00:16:00.080
up for like nine months. That's
that one's worth owning. Absolutely so,

252
00:16:00.200 --> 00:16:04.120
Henrik moving on into the family category, a questionable family title that I think

253
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:07.840
you won't argue, nineteen eighty seven's
The Monster Squad. Well, if your

254
00:16:07.919 --> 00:16:15.480
kid doesn't mind just a sprinkling of
homophobic slurs there, then you'll be fine.

255
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:18.600
Well, I mean, you know
what I mean. If you're listening

256
00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.200
to Weekly Spooky, and you are
if you're listening to this. I'm a

257
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:26.759
big believer that if a bad guy
says a bad thing, it's fine.

258
00:16:26.840 --> 00:16:33.039
Yeah, exactly. It's the kid
who says the f slur yes, is

259
00:16:33.159 --> 00:16:37.759
not a good guy. We're not
rooting for him. We're not happy that

260
00:16:37.840 --> 00:16:41.120
he said that to the fat kid. He does immediately get his just desserts

261
00:16:41.120 --> 00:16:47.159
though too literally they are just and
desserts. No. So so, Monster

262
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:48.679
Squad is a very special film.
Yes it is. I'll let you take

263
00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:56.320
it. I have been watching Monster
Squad religiously since maybe I was seven six

264
00:16:56.440 --> 00:17:00.639
years old. I had a VHS
of it that broke because I watched it

265
00:17:00.679 --> 00:17:04.160
so much, I'd watch it all
year round. I've always loved Monster Squad,

266
00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:08.119
and I remember when it was impossible
to find because it was out of

267
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:11.839
print. You could only find the
vhs and the bootlegs. And I had

268
00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:14.039
a bootleg. I had a bootleg
DVD. I got a convention off.

269
00:17:14.079 --> 00:17:18.680
The laser disc looked fine, you
know, but it wasn't. I am

270
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:25.680
a stern believer that you don't buy
bootlegs unless no one gives you another option.

271
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:30.799
If a film is completely unavailable to
watch in any way, shape or

272
00:17:30.839 --> 00:17:33.480
form. A movie is unavailable in
any way to watch, I'm talking you

273
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:37.400
can't even rent it online, which
there are movies like that, then I

274
00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:40.640
feel I don't feel bad at all
downloading it illegally or buying a bootleg.

275
00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:45.000
As long as it's reasonably priced,
I'm fine with it. But I also

276
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:49.200
when when Monster Squad came out on
DVD and I found out it was coming

277
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:56.160
really early because I had a buddy
who worked on that DVD, I frigging

278
00:17:56.640 --> 00:18:00.359
this shows my age. I ran
to the near best buy when I lived

279
00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:03.720
I lived in Jersey. When it
came out, I ran to that nearest

280
00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:07.039
best buy. Then I had never
been to before because I was too When

281
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:10.039
I lived at Jersey, I didn't
have a lot of money, so I

282
00:18:10.079 --> 00:18:11.799
was not going to bet. I
went to best Buy twice when I lived

283
00:18:11.799 --> 00:18:15.839
in Jersey. I went to best
Buy wants to buy Monster Squad and wants

284
00:18:15.880 --> 00:18:18.240
to buy a GPS because I almost
got lost in the Pine Berens and was

285
00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:22.279
never heard from again. So no
that for real. For I got so

286
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:26.880
lost in the Pine Berens driving that
I actually had that moment where I was

287
00:18:26.920 --> 00:18:30.119
like, at what point do you
just never be found? So when I

288
00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:33.559
finally made it, I was driving
down the road. I was actually going

289
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:37.880
to see my buddy Michelle from Monthly
Spooky. I was driving down this road

290
00:18:37.960 --> 00:18:38.359
and I was like, God,
I don't know where I am. No

291
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:41.759
GPS, I'm music map Quest directions
printed out, and I'm driving down the

292
00:18:41.839 --> 00:18:45.400
road and I'm like where am I? And I'm like, well, if

293
00:18:45.400 --> 00:18:49.759
I keep driving, I'll find something. So I'm driving and I'm driving and

294
00:18:49.799 --> 00:18:55.200
the Pine Bearrens are all around me
and all this stuff nothing, So I

295
00:18:55.319 --> 00:19:02.720
keep going because it can't be nothing
forever yea. And the road turns to

296
00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:07.119
dirt, Oh God, And then
it dead ends in front of an abandoned

297
00:19:07.119 --> 00:19:10.519
factory with all the windows broken out
and a car in front with no tires.

298
00:19:10.519 --> 00:19:12.599
Oh god. And that was when
I just kind of brushed my hands

299
00:19:12.599 --> 00:19:18.400
and went well, time to die. Luckily I had a half a tank

300
00:19:18.400 --> 00:19:21.839
of gas. Yeah, so I
was like, well, time to turn

301
00:19:21.880 --> 00:19:26.759
around and drive twice as fast because
there was no sign of life at all.

302
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:30.200
So I drove a drove and drove, and literally literally the moment I

303
00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:34.119
found a stoplights a light, I
just turned left and was like, now

304
00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:38.039
I will find something. And then
I found a gas station. Because I

305
00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:41.359
couldn't, I would call. I
would call Michelle and be like I don't

306
00:19:41.400 --> 00:19:42.359
know what, like I'm lost,
and she'd been where are you and be

307
00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:48.240
like I don't know, I don't
know. I mean I'm knocking on death

308
00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:52.519
store. Oh my gosh. Chicano
was sleeping with his head on the air

309
00:19:52.559 --> 00:19:56.640
conditioner vent. It is so cute. His face is all smushed up on

310
00:19:56.680 --> 00:20:00.319
the air conditioning vent. He is
out cold. He knows it's naptime when

311
00:20:00.359 --> 00:20:04.680
Papa's in the studio. That's so
but no a monster squad, truly love

312
00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:07.480
it. But you know what I
did the day I came home with it

313
00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:11.279
on DVD. What's that. I
watched it obviously in my apartment, and

314
00:20:11.319 --> 00:20:15.079
then it came out, I want
to say, at the beginning of September,

315
00:20:17.559 --> 00:20:19.119
because my birthday is in September.
Yeah, and when I went home

316
00:20:19.119 --> 00:20:22.440
for my birthday, I brought it
and I got Mom to watch it with

317
00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:23.920
me in the living room and mom
and Mom was like, I remember you

318
00:20:23.960 --> 00:20:29.200
watching this again and again and again
and again, and I was like,

319
00:20:29.240 --> 00:20:30.519
well, you're finally gonna have to
watch it. And when it was over,

320
00:20:30.559 --> 00:20:34.279
she was like, that's a good
movie. So Monster Squad is my

321
00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:37.720
top pick on this list. It's
a great one. And also I wanted

322
00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:41.359
to throw an extra love because not
only is it getting a rerelease soon on

323
00:20:41.440 --> 00:20:44.519
four K, which won't be in
time for Halloween unfortunately. Yeah, but

324
00:20:44.759 --> 00:20:47.799
it's just it's getting a lot of
love, even more so the last I

325
00:20:47.799 --> 00:20:51.319
would say decade, and especially with
the Wolfman's Got Nards documentaries, you kind

326
00:20:51.319 --> 00:20:52.559
of got to hear the story of
it. And this is a movie that

327
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:57.319
unfairly got matched at release date with
The Lost Boys, which shadowed it entirely.

328
00:20:57.599 --> 00:21:00.920
Yeah, Lost Boys was much Well, it's not just I don't think

329
00:21:00.960 --> 00:21:04.519
Lost Boys is necessarily a better film. Yeah, but it had a lot

330
00:21:04.559 --> 00:21:07.960
more money. Yeah, it was
a mainstream movie. It was made by

331
00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:14.720
a director that was already described as
a visionary Joe. So when you have

332
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:17.839
all those things against it, and
it had, it had freaking the corries,

333
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:21.880
it had everything. Everything. And
that's not to say anything negative about

334
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:23.599
The Lost Boys because The Lost Boys
is a great film, but it just

335
00:21:23.680 --> 00:21:27.359
had everything going for it. And
the Monster Squad was this little TriStar movie

336
00:21:27.680 --> 00:21:30.839
made by the guy who made Neither
of the Creeps. And people will be

337
00:21:30.839 --> 00:21:33.440
like, what's Night of the Creeps
because we might get to it. Well,

338
00:21:33.480 --> 00:21:37.720
I'm just saying I love Monster Squad. I love Night of the Creeps,

339
00:21:37.839 --> 00:21:41.880
but neither of them were appreciated when
they came out the way they are

340
00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:45.359
now. So Monster Squad is my
pick too. But let's move on before

341
00:21:45.359 --> 00:21:48.119
I talk about it even more.
Streaming on Paramount Plus in Pluto right now,

342
00:21:48.160 --> 00:21:53.240
you can find Monster Squad readily available
Don't go away weekly Spooky will be

343
00:21:53.440 --> 00:22:00.440
right back. Moving on nineteen ninety
one, The Adams Family. I revisited

344
00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:06.160
those last year. They're so good, They're they are freaking flawless. Adams

345
00:22:06.200 --> 00:22:11.000
Family and Adams Family Values, which
is a good November because it has a

346
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:15.720
Thanksgiving something. But Raoul Julia completely, I've always loved the Adams Family as

347
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:18.440
characters. I'm not gonna be one
of people I read the comics. I

348
00:22:18.480 --> 00:22:22.359
don't think anybody read the comics anymore. I mean not that still live the

349
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:23.839
comics. Have you ever tried to
read them? No, they're just odd.

350
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:26.279
I mean, I mean, I
don't mean like that they're not good

351
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:29.519
because they're odd, but I mean
they're not like a normal comic strip.

352
00:22:29.960 --> 00:22:33.680
The characters aren't named, they almost
never say anything. Yeah, they're clever,

353
00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:38.000
but but the essence of the Adams
Family came later Yeah with uh,

354
00:22:38.359 --> 00:22:44.200
with the television series and John Aston
playing Gomez, the first Gomez. I

355
00:22:44.279 --> 00:22:49.279
love that series. Quick side note
about the Adams Family. Watch the Pluto

356
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:56.240
channel for the Adams Family. It
is a very wholesome show. Instead of

357
00:22:56.279 --> 00:22:57.799
being like leave it to Beaver and
stuff, where like, you know,

358
00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:03.119
Dad's working in Mom's home cleaning and
stuff. More, Tisha and Gomez are

359
00:23:03.160 --> 00:23:07.079
always home and they're always doing stuff
with their kids. One of my favorite

360
00:23:07.319 --> 00:23:12.720
moments in the in the original TV
series is when Gomez and Pugsley. They're

361
00:23:12.759 --> 00:23:18.440
setting off rockets in the living room. I always loved that they would do

362
00:23:18.519 --> 00:23:22.880
outside activities inside, which is extra
funny when you consider that that had that

363
00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:26.880
that was probably that probably had more
to do with the fact that they were

364
00:23:26.880 --> 00:23:30.160
filming a sitcom inist studio, So
it was like, well, what if

365
00:23:30.160 --> 00:23:32.720
we just have them to do all
that stuff in the mansion. And they're

366
00:23:32.759 --> 00:23:34.240
like, oh, that's funny,
Like who would play who would play,

367
00:23:34.519 --> 00:23:38.039
you know, uh, tackle football
in the mansion? Who would who would

368
00:23:38.079 --> 00:23:41.480
shoot off rockets? But I just
remember Gomez is shooting rockets with little pugs

369
00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:45.319
Lee in the living room and the
rocket of course goes up and the camera

370
00:23:45.400 --> 00:23:48.759
shakes and like crap falls down and
then it Pugsley looks up, it goes

371
00:23:48.839 --> 00:23:52.680
it went into Fester's room and then
and then Gomez goes, ah, too,

372
00:23:52.720 --> 00:23:56.400
Betty's not home. He would have
loved that. Do you remember that?

373
00:23:56.559 --> 00:24:00.400
I just so but that all to
say so so. Aston was a

374
00:24:00.440 --> 00:24:07.880
phenomenal Gomez, but he was he
was a very literally like cigar chewing oddball

375
00:24:07.039 --> 00:24:17.400
American character. Raoul Julia took Gomez
and gave him this mysterious Europeans. I

376
00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:23.519
mean he was Puerto Rican and Gomez
Adams. The origins of the Adams family

377
00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:26.759
is that they're supposed to be Castilian, so they're supposed to be a type

378
00:24:26.759 --> 00:24:33.400
of Spanish and uh. But the
reason Gomez was named Gomez is because whatever

379
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:36.200
his name was, the Adams guy
who invented the Adams family, he didn't

380
00:24:36.240 --> 00:24:40.119
know a lot about Spanish culture,
so he named He was like, I

381
00:24:40.160 --> 00:24:41.920
want them to be Castilian. So
we gave him a surname as his first

382
00:24:42.000 --> 00:24:48.000
name. Before Gomez Adams was a
name, nobody nobody's first name was Gomez.

383
00:24:48.039 --> 00:24:52.200
Gomez is a last name. That's
that's fine. I'm just saying that

384
00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:55.079
kind of funny think so. But
so Raoul Julia, they handed him this

385
00:24:55.200 --> 00:24:59.680
role. Yeah, I believe ral
Julia. We were robbed when he died

386
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:03.799
young. Absolutely as a culture because
he was truly one of the best actors

387
00:25:03.960 --> 00:25:07.519
ever. We were just talking about. You just watched Frankenstein. I'm about

388
00:25:08.000 --> 00:25:14.000
he is so amazing as doctor Frankenstein. Ye. And it's not it's not

389
00:25:14.039 --> 00:25:18.480
that when he does his version of
somebody like like Gomez Adams or doctor Frankenstein,

390
00:25:18.039 --> 00:25:22.880
it's not that he does them as
like a Puerto Rican guy. They're

391
00:25:22.920 --> 00:25:30.119
completely new and he steps into them
like they are a suit. Yeah,

392
00:25:30.200 --> 00:25:34.279
he was Gomez Adams, and Gomez
Adams was eccentric and had that little euro

393
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:40.400
trash kind of Hispanic flare. And
I love it. I love it,

394
00:25:40.440 --> 00:25:42.440
and I'm not gonna talk about frankest
I'm bound a bunch. But there are

395
00:25:42.440 --> 00:25:45.160
moments. There's a moment where somebody
says you're insane, and he looks at

396
00:25:45.160 --> 00:25:49.880
them with the most insane look ever
to express that. He's like, how

397
00:25:49.960 --> 00:25:53.440
dare you call me? Insists?
So good? God, tell you call

398
00:25:53.480 --> 00:25:57.599
me and say it, I'll murder
you. But but no. So Adams

399
00:25:57.680 --> 00:26:03.319
Family, the original movie from ninety
one is not only a great film,

400
00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:04.680
but it always makes me think of
Burger King because that's where I bought my

401
00:26:04.759 --> 00:26:08.480
VHS copy in nineteen ninety one.
But or two, I think it was

402
00:26:08.480 --> 00:26:11.960
two when actually was going to always
forget about the opening when you have the

403
00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:15.240
carollers singing and then they just dump
the boiling water on them, which I'll

404
00:26:15.240 --> 00:26:18.000
do that. We don't know what
it is. It's just a witch's but

405
00:26:18.119 --> 00:26:21.680
it's just a bubbling cauldron. Yeah. But and they don't even dump it

406
00:26:21.720 --> 00:26:22.799
like in a mean way. It
like pans them and they're just like and

407
00:26:22.839 --> 00:26:27.599
they're like, oh. I think
that their perspective, knowing the Adams Family

408
00:26:27.920 --> 00:26:32.200
from a lifetime of fandom is that
they were like they were like, well,

409
00:26:32.200 --> 00:26:34.400
you have to give the carolers a
treat, So Mama made up a

410
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:38.240
nice match of you know, I
have newt whatever. So where can people

411
00:26:38.240 --> 00:26:41.960
watch that? Paramount Plus is where
you can find the Adams family, and

412
00:26:41.359 --> 00:26:45.240
I believe it's also where you can
find values as well to Adam Samiley values.

413
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:48.119
I was gonna say, what is
this is not a commercial? They

414
00:26:48.160 --> 00:26:52.880
do not kick us any money,
but no Adams Family. I can't imagine

415
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:56.119
a better Like if you're a millennial
like me, and to a lesser extent

416
00:26:56.200 --> 00:27:03.319
you uh younger millennial, I elder, elder millennial. I am the elder

417
00:27:03.400 --> 00:27:11.160
millennial to me, as I had
a credit score that was decent anyway.

418
00:27:12.039 --> 00:27:17.920
But no, I I just it's
it's a greatful. If I had kids,

419
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:22.200
I would be dying to show them
out of the absolutely. So moving

420
00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:25.720
down the list, let's go to
nineteen eighty eight with a little classic that

421
00:27:25.759 --> 00:27:33.920
we know by the name of Beetlejuice
with Michael Keaton Beetlejuice, Beetle Sorry n

422
00:27:33.279 --> 00:27:37.680
eighty eight we have the Tim Burton
classic Beetles Juice, Michael Keaton, Alec

423
00:27:37.759 --> 00:27:41.400
Baldwin, Geena Davis, Catherine O'Hare. I mean, the names go on

424
00:27:41.440 --> 00:27:47.279
and on, and this is just
a really tim Burton to his to his

425
00:27:47.400 --> 00:27:52.200
form with with a Halloween film,
but also just a pretty fun movie with

426
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:57.480
some pretty darknesses. I would call
it very teetering being a family movie.

427
00:27:57.559 --> 00:28:03.160
Oh is it? Because that's just
one of the things. Are you kidding?

428
00:28:03.960 --> 00:28:07.839
You think that the part races as
my laptop shows Dante's Inferno, the

429
00:28:07.839 --> 00:28:11.839
Strip Club? Yeah, like the
Strip Club? What about the office with

430
00:28:11.880 --> 00:28:15.400
all the dead people there and people
smoking and then exhaling it through their their

431
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:21.480
throats and stuff. It's a very
timid PG will say it's a very morbid

432
00:28:22.000 --> 00:28:25.640
fun ride. I wouldn't call any
of it harmful, No, No,

433
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:27.559
I think that you do have to
be you have to be a cool parent

434
00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:30.000
to let your kid watch them when
you're younger. I think so. Yeah,

435
00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:33.160
And it's got some scary, some
scary moments in it too, between

436
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:37.039
Beetles Juice turning into a snake.
I mean, there's a lot of stuff

437
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:40.559
with the with the underworld that you
kind of get a taste for the dark

438
00:28:40.599 --> 00:28:44.160
side that Burton loves to flaunt itself
in. My favorite thing about Beetle Juice

439
00:28:44.160 --> 00:28:48.720
is the idea that the afterlife is
just another bureaucracy. Yeah, it's like

440
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:52.480
going literally when you die. If
you some haven't seen Beetle Juice, when

441
00:28:52.519 --> 00:28:56.680
you die in the world of Beetlejuice, you just go to the BMV,

442
00:28:56.000 --> 00:29:03.039
yeah, to get assigned your death
assigned or whatever, Like it's ridiculous.

443
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:06.519
So, but Beetlejuice, Yeah,
a lot of fun. Also another one

444
00:29:06.519 --> 00:29:08.559
if you're a if you're a millennial
and haven't watched Beetle Juice and Waller,

445
00:29:08.559 --> 00:29:11.400
I have never seen it. Yeah, you get to see baby Alec baldwins,

446
00:29:11.440 --> 00:29:15.759
you do. You get to see
like everybody's like a little tea.

447
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:18.599
Yeah, she's literally like playing a
teenager. I don't know how actually old

448
00:29:18.599 --> 00:29:22.359
she was probably twenty Yeah, probably
twenty. Great film holds up every time

449
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:25.079
I watch it. But every time
I watch it, I do have that

450
00:29:25.079 --> 00:29:29.119
moment where I'm like when I was
a kid. Put that on TV Comedy

451
00:29:29.160 --> 00:29:30.880
Central showed it all the time,
and I swear like, growing up,

452
00:29:30.920 --> 00:29:34.200
my parents watched it to the point
where we actually recorded it off a Comedy

453
00:29:34.240 --> 00:29:37.000
Central. So for the longest time, I only knew about the TV cut.

454
00:29:37.079 --> 00:29:41.160
So the first time I ever saw
like the uncut, like on HBO

455
00:29:41.279 --> 00:29:42.799
or something, and he did the
nice fucking model, Yeah, I was

456
00:29:42.839 --> 00:29:48.440
just like, Oh my god.
I had friends who who I'm not sure

457
00:29:48.440 --> 00:29:49.839
if it was Beetlejuice specifically, but
I had friends who when I was growing

458
00:29:49.920 --> 00:29:53.400
up, they had favorite movies that
their parents would only let them have the

459
00:29:53.440 --> 00:29:56.599
one they taped off the TV.
Yeah. No, I had a couple

460
00:29:56.640 --> 00:29:59.799
of those myself. Yeah, what
do you remember anymore? I know one

461
00:29:59.839 --> 00:30:03.359
of them was The Lost Boys.
For the longest time, Oh man,

462
00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:07.400
what how how how do they how
do they cut out for commercials all of

463
00:30:07.440 --> 00:30:14.039
the homoerotic subtext and Lost Boys?
And I think the other one, if

464
00:30:14.119 --> 00:30:15.720
I'm if I'm not mistaken, I
think the other one was Halloween h two

465
00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:21.279
Because right around my right around my
team my mid teens, I got my

466
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:23.880
VCR in my room and had access
to cable, so I would start taking

467
00:30:23.880 --> 00:30:27.000
stuff like I taped Chris Angel Mine
freak cups. Of course you did.

468
00:30:27.240 --> 00:30:30.839
You were just trying to get tips
on how to put ta pant pants on

469
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:34.799
that tight? Are you ready?
Are you ready? So? Beetle Juice

470
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:38.759
is available to rent on Prime Voodoo. It's not streaming anywhere at this time

471
00:30:38.799 --> 00:30:42.920
for free again, but it's you
can find Beetle Juice anywhere. Any Halloween

472
00:30:44.000 --> 00:30:48.160
section that actually still has video videos, DVDs and whatnot and stories you can

473
00:30:48.160 --> 00:30:51.200
probably find it too. Oh.
I mean that one's definitely a classic.

474
00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:52.759
Yeah, definitely glad it was on
the list. Move it on to another

475
00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:56.799
classic, one of my personal favorites, although my love for it has has

476
00:30:56.880 --> 00:31:00.359
lessened a bit just because of the
hype. But Focus Pocus from nineteen ninety

477
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:03.920
three. Wow, you're turning on
your beloved Hocus post. There's there's there's

478
00:31:03.039 --> 00:31:07.079
there's issues I have, but we'll
get to that. Basically, I adore

479
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:11.559
Hocus Pocus. This is one of
those movies that was brought into my childhood

480
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.240
by my grandmother, who is who
is still with us, and I actually

481
00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:18.039
still have watched Hocus Pocus with her
every now and then. But I remember

482
00:31:18.160 --> 00:31:22.079
verbatim like she had told me about
this movie. Hocus Pocus and at this

483
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:25.880
point, like Disney Channel was like
the premium channel, and she hadn't at

484
00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:29.160
her house. Yeah, we didn't
have it. We watched it together one

485
00:31:29.240 --> 00:31:30.759
one Halloween and I just fell in
love with it. And then I remember

486
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:33.880
like in summer at one point,
like when I was like six or seven,

487
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:37.599
I was staying with her while my
parents were on vacation, and we

488
00:31:37.640 --> 00:31:40.480
went to Target and I got the
VHS of it and we watched it again

489
00:31:40.519 --> 00:31:42.880
together. So hocus Pocus is the
story of a teenage boy named Max and

490
00:31:42.920 --> 00:31:47.920
his little sister that moved to Salem
and they end up awakening the Sanderson Sisters,

491
00:31:47.920 --> 00:31:49.440
which are these witches that were executed
in the seventeenth century. And the

492
00:31:49.440 --> 00:31:53.680
Sanderson Sisters want to suck all the
lives out of the children in Salem to

493
00:31:53.720 --> 00:31:57.640
basically make sure that they can stay
alive and live forever. There's some high

494
00:31:57.680 --> 00:32:04.079
jinks that ensue. Of course,
it's great that's drained the children of life

495
00:32:04.119 --> 00:32:08.480
for us. I slipped. So
you've got Bette Midler as Winifred, who's

496
00:32:08.519 --> 00:32:12.519
the main sister, Sarah, Jessica
Parker is Sarah Kathy, and Jimmy is

497
00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:15.720
married. Directed by Kenny Ortega and
famously has some writing in it by Mick

498
00:32:15.759 --> 00:32:19.839
Garris, even though he says his
original version was a little bit different.

499
00:32:20.039 --> 00:32:22.279
Hocus Focus is just a great one
for the family. I don't need to

500
00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:23.519
go on and on about it.
I think everybody knows Hocus. I think

501
00:32:23.519 --> 00:32:27.319
it's it's pretty fun. I'll tell
you so. When I was a kid,

502
00:32:27.400 --> 00:32:30.920
yeah, hocus Pocus was like what
we watched in school on Halloween.

503
00:32:30.960 --> 00:32:35.000
I could see that. So,
like I was hardcore, so you know,

504
00:32:35.000 --> 00:32:37.160
it'd be like, it's Halloween,
should watch Hocus Focus and I'd be

505
00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:40.160
like, nah, we're watching Monster
Squad. But I've always found it charming,

506
00:32:40.279 --> 00:32:44.839
it's great, and honestly, my
my biggest beef with with it is

507
00:32:44.880 --> 00:32:49.279
just it's become it has become the
film for every TV channel, especially free

508
00:32:49.279 --> 00:32:52.440
Form, like they've done the hocus
Pocus specials. Hocus Pocus two came out

509
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:53.839
last year on Disney Plus and I
watched it and I enjoyed it. But

510
00:32:53.839 --> 00:32:58.960
they've already announced three, and I'm
just like, we can stop. You're

511
00:32:59.000 --> 00:33:02.799
not wrong, You're not wrong at
all. But pocus Pocus on Disney Plus.

512
00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:06.680
It's also gonna be coming back into
theaters this this October as well,

513
00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:08.119
So keep an eye out for that
if they want to see it. Moving

514
00:33:08.160 --> 00:33:12.400
on, we have two thousand and
one. One of my personal underrated two

515
00:33:12.440 --> 00:33:15.240
doesn't want to space out of two
doesn't want to space out of CEP have

516
00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:19.599
two thousand ones. When Good Gouls
Go Bad? I love when good gouals

517
00:33:19.680 --> 00:33:22.400
Go bad? Did that premiere on
Fox Family as it did Abc Family?

518
00:33:22.480 --> 00:33:27.480
It was a ABC Family premiere.
We're talking Christopher Lloyd. Are you sure

519
00:33:27.480 --> 00:33:30.359
it was? It was an ABC
Family by the time it premiered or was

520
00:33:30.400 --> 00:33:31.519
it so Fox? It might have
been Fox Family at that but I didn't

521
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:36.200
remember documentary on Fox Family on YouTube. You need to watch it. It's

522
00:33:36.240 --> 00:33:37.400
like it's like an hour and a
half long because it has to be.

523
00:33:37.920 --> 00:33:43.920
There's so much. They started that
channel and did it different than everywhere else.

524
00:33:43.960 --> 00:33:45.240
They were just like, okay,
so we're gonna start this channel and

525
00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:49.160
then we're gonna r and then they
had venture capital coming and they raised like

526
00:33:49.160 --> 00:33:51.400
two hundred million dollars, okay,
and two undred million dollars to make all

527
00:33:51.400 --> 00:33:53.359
the programming, and it was like
what And so that's why the programming was

528
00:33:53.400 --> 00:33:58.359
so bizarrely its own thing that makes
sense was they just spent money to make

529
00:33:58.400 --> 00:34:01.119
it. And I remember ABC Family
was fine, but Fox Family was where

530
00:34:01.119 --> 00:34:04.640
it was at all. But I
remember when Good Goals Go Bad was on

531
00:34:04.799 --> 00:34:07.599
that channel. Whether I don't remember
which era, but when Good Goals Go

532
00:34:07.639 --> 00:34:15.480
Bad starring Christopher Lee or Christophe Christopher
Lloyd Faith Dominori by rl steinmind you,

533
00:34:15.760 --> 00:34:17.880
yes it was. It was.
So when googlez Bad? Is the story

534
00:34:17.920 --> 00:34:21.760
of walker Falls, which is this
it's hard to say it fast small we're

535
00:34:21.760 --> 00:34:25.760
both so caffeinated. What about when
Good Goals Go Bad? This small town

536
00:34:25.760 --> 00:34:29.199
of walker Falls, which is kind
of like the Norman Rockwell town. It

537
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:31.320
used to be a very famous town
for Halloween. They had a candy factory

538
00:34:31.360 --> 00:34:35.880
and all the stuff. And you
find out that an unfortunate tragedy basically made

539
00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:38.679
the town believe that it was cursed, and so for the last like decades

540
00:34:38.719 --> 00:34:43.440
and decades, they have not celebrated
Halloween this town. Christopher Lloyd plays the

541
00:34:43.480 --> 00:34:45.239
father of one of the guys that
has moved back to the town to open

542
00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:50.840
the candy factory. Long story short, something happens and maybe the curse comes

543
00:34:50.840 --> 00:34:52.559
back into play. Maybe the person
who said the Curse wasn't telling the truth

544
00:34:52.639 --> 00:34:57.079
a lot of stuff with it.
It is the perfect Halloween movie. It's

545
00:34:57.159 --> 00:35:00.280
so family friendly, it's got a
lot of humor, it's got a lot

546
00:35:00.280 --> 00:35:04.920
of just like not scary moments,
but like unsettling moments with zombies and whatnot.

547
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:07.400
So yeah, yeah, no,
definitely, it's just a very very

548
00:35:07.440 --> 00:35:10.159
fun movie. Unfortunately, you're probably
only going to be able to find it

549
00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:14.639
on YouTube or you're gonna be I
have to buy a DVD like I did

550
00:35:14.639 --> 00:35:17.639
off Amazon. It got lost in
the ether very easily. Yeah, it's

551
00:35:17.840 --> 00:35:21.760
it's a great one, and it's
it's one that I do not think gets

552
00:35:21.840 --> 00:35:23.119
enough love. So if you can
find it, you are going to have

553
00:35:23.199 --> 00:35:27.639
an absolute blast with that. Watch
when Good Golds Go Bad. You've got

554
00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:30.480
my stamp of a too. All
right, moving on down, we have

555
00:35:30.679 --> 00:35:37.360
The Witches from nineteen ninety another one
that my grandma showed me that for one,

556
00:35:37.480 --> 00:35:39.679
scared the absolute shit out of me, and two, I've just come

557
00:35:39.719 --> 00:35:43.320
to love this movie so much.
And actually, if you're wondering why that

558
00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:45.440
title sounds familiar, it's because I
can't think of his name. Did a

559
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:51.519
remake of it Back to the Future
SECAs Zemecas did a remake of it for

560
00:35:51.639 --> 00:35:53.159
HBO. Max. Oh, that
was he was the one behind. That

561
00:35:53.199 --> 00:35:57.039
was the one he was. I
got confused because the Witches and hocus Pocus

562
00:35:57.079 --> 00:36:00.239
got both got like sequel remake kind
of things all at the same time.

563
00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:02.679
Yeah. Yeah. The Witches is
based off of a story by Rod Dao.

564
00:36:04.039 --> 00:36:06.920
It's about a young boy who stumbles
upon a witch convention at a hotel.

565
00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:09.480
He is with there with his grandmother
after his parents have unfortunately passing a

566
00:36:09.480 --> 00:36:13.639
car accident. She takes him on
a vacation. He stumbles upon this convention

567
00:36:13.760 --> 00:36:16.679
of the witches, and the lead
witch is the great Angelica Houston, who

568
00:36:16.760 --> 00:36:21.440
of course played Mortician and the Adam's
family, And basically what happens is they

569
00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:23.880
turn the kids into mice because they're
trying to suck their life out again to

570
00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:28.960
basically live forever. And this whole
thing ensues with two kids being turned into

571
00:36:29.000 --> 00:36:30.239
mice, they try to defeat the
witches with the help of the grandma.

572
00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:35.960
It's super scary, it's super fun, and mister Bean's in it of all

573
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:38.840
things too. Yeah. The special
effects in that movie are are very like

574
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:45.360
childs scarring level. Oh god,
the reveal when because basically the witches where

575
00:36:45.400 --> 00:36:49.320
the skin that they have and they
take it off to reveal their true form.

576
00:36:49.400 --> 00:36:52.920
And at the at the beginning of
the Grand High Ceremony, they all

577
00:36:52.960 --> 00:36:55.800
revealed themselves and it is pure nightmare
field. No, it's it's really pretty

578
00:36:55.880 --> 00:36:59.840
terrifying. It is very, very
terrifying, but it's a great one.

579
00:37:00.199 --> 00:37:04.440
The Witches is available right now as
of this recording on Prime. You can

580
00:37:04.519 --> 00:37:07.039
rent it. You can get it
on Voodoo as well. It may or

581
00:37:07.119 --> 00:37:09.960
may not be coming to Max soon
from that, so you keep it.

582
00:37:10.000 --> 00:37:14.239
One of that The Witches, and
that's another one that's definitely fun for your

583
00:37:14.280 --> 00:37:16.039
kids, but maybe for the for
the kids who can handle something a little

584
00:37:16.039 --> 00:37:19.079
bit scary. I got. I
got in trouble for showing that movie to

585
00:37:19.079 --> 00:37:23.119
my cousins when I was young.
So moving on. One of my absolute

586
00:37:23.199 --> 00:37:28.079
personal favorites that I discovered from my
times of being a manager at FYE Para

587
00:37:28.159 --> 00:37:30.800
Norman from twenty twelve. Yeah,
I've heard good things. I've never watched

588
00:37:30.840 --> 00:37:34.639
it. You haven't, Oh my
god. Para Norman is the story of

589
00:37:34.639 --> 00:37:37.119
a misunderstood boy who takes on ghosts, zombies, and grown ups to save

590
00:37:37.159 --> 00:37:42.320
his town from a centuries old curse. Basically, his family doesn't resent him,

591
00:37:42.360 --> 00:37:45.360
but they don't understand that he can
literally talk to his dead grandma who's

592
00:37:45.400 --> 00:37:47.519
sitting in the in the living room
all the time. He goes around town

593
00:37:47.519 --> 00:37:51.679
and you start to see him talking
to people and then the camera pans it's

594
00:37:51.679 --> 00:37:54.280
an animated movie, and then you
see all these green ghosts in the street

595
00:37:54.320 --> 00:37:57.760
talking to him. Yeah, yeah, yeah, And it is the sweetest

596
00:37:57.800 --> 00:38:00.920
movie. I've seen a little bit
of that because my good buddy Andrew,

597
00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:04.679
his daughter and he both loved that
movie, so I've seen a little bit

598
00:38:04.679 --> 00:38:07.519
of it. It's and I really
like it. Yeah. Directed by Chris

599
00:38:07.559 --> 00:38:12.360
Butler and Sam Fell, It's got
the story of basically, you have Para

600
00:38:12.440 --> 00:38:15.760
Norman. He has this friend and
they decide that they're going to solve the

601
00:38:15.800 --> 00:38:20.119
curse. So they set out to
basically find out what is going on with

602
00:38:20.159 --> 00:38:22.400
the town. People are going mad, there's a witch curse put on it,

603
00:38:22.440 --> 00:38:25.519
and they're trying to set things right
by also using the ghosts that are

604
00:38:25.519 --> 00:38:29.519
coming back. And it's just a
really sweet movie. It has me bawling

605
00:38:29.559 --> 00:38:31.599
at the end when there's a huge
reveal as to who the curse is actually

606
00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:35.840
upon. It's just a great time
and it's perfect for the whole family.

607
00:38:36.119 --> 00:38:38.800
Available on Stars and you can also
rent it on Prime and Voodoo as well.

608
00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:42.840
Right now, Yeah, Rachel will
kill me because I still haven't watched

609
00:38:42.840 --> 00:38:45.599
it as a whole because I know
she loves that movie is so good.

610
00:38:45.639 --> 00:38:47.599
And then ending out the family scares
category, we are going to go with

611
00:38:47.639 --> 00:38:53.159
an absolute classic personal favorite nineteen seventy
four is Young Frankenstein, the Melbrooks classic.

612
00:38:55.159 --> 00:38:58.639
I think it is because I personally
was shown it as a kid,

613
00:38:59.360 --> 00:39:01.960
fair Fair and I mean it's it's
it's black and white, so it's one

614
00:39:01.960 --> 00:39:07.800
of those he's gonna have to get
their attention for, okay anything that like,

615
00:39:07.840 --> 00:39:09.800
it's black and white, so that's
gonna be. I was like,

616
00:39:09.840 --> 00:39:14.519
yeah, you know else this in
black and white Birth of a Nation.

617
00:39:14.679 --> 00:39:16.639
I knew you were going to that
one. I'm not showing that to little

618
00:39:16.719 --> 00:39:21.960
kids. So if you're not married
the story Young Frankenstein would shame on you.

619
00:39:22.079 --> 00:39:25.519
It is the retelling of Frankenstein with
Gene Wilder is playing the Doctor Frankenstein

620
00:39:25.599 --> 00:39:29.039
role. He finds out that his
grandfather's passed and he has to go to

621
00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:31.800
this castle to basically set the affair
straight, stumbles into his research. You've

622
00:39:31.800 --> 00:39:37.079
got an amazing cast of Wilder,
I'm blanking on his name, the guy

623
00:39:37.079 --> 00:39:40.719
that play Marty Feldman. You've got
Peter Boyle, Madeline Khan, Chloris Leachman,

624
00:39:40.840 --> 00:39:45.440
Terry Gar, Kenneth Mars. And
this is one of those movies that

625
00:39:45.519 --> 00:39:47.440
the more you watch it, the
more subtle the humor picks up on.

626
00:39:47.480 --> 00:39:51.760
There's some something funny I find in
this. Everything the movie is highly layered.

627
00:39:51.840 --> 00:39:53.039
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I
saw it in the theater a couple

628
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:57.840
of years back. I have never
sem it forever, and I really enjoyed

629
00:39:57.840 --> 00:40:00.719
it, although I struggle when it
it's to the end with all the performances

630
00:40:00.760 --> 00:40:04.360
and the putting on the ritz.
But it's a little bit out there,

631
00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:07.480
jump the shark a bit. Well, there's a there's a point in mel

632
00:40:07.519 --> 00:40:09.199
Brooks's career where everybody was like,
he can do no wrong, so they

633
00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:13.559
let him do a lot of wrong. Yeah. I like one of them,

634
00:40:13.559 --> 00:40:15.800
and I like one of his most
wrong movies that people don't care for,

635
00:40:15.880 --> 00:40:17.360
which is Dracula Dead and Loving It, which almost made this list,

636
00:40:17.400 --> 00:40:21.840
but not enough. Oh was it
not? In black and White, so

637
00:40:22.239 --> 00:40:24.400
young Frankstein. Currently streaming on HBO
Max. Definitely check it out if you

638
00:40:24.400 --> 00:40:28.599
haven't. It's a perfect movie for
Halloween. All right, we're finishing up

639
00:40:28.599 --> 00:40:37.039
with family scares and movie on to
watch. Hold on, what you didn't

640
00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:43.280
mention? Oh god, what did
I not mention? Coco? Didn't print?

641
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:45.599
Put Coco on there. No,
I will admit Coco is technically a

642
00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:51.039
movie, yes, but oh my
god, now I'm gonna cry. Thanks

643
00:40:51.039 --> 00:40:54.480
for bringing up Coco. I love
Coco. It's one of those few Disney

644
00:40:54.519 --> 00:40:59.039
movies that I adore. Yeah,
it's a great one. Coco is about

645
00:40:59.119 --> 00:41:00.480
Dia de los Marto, which is
the Day of the Dead, the Mexican

646
00:41:00.559 --> 00:41:04.920
Day of the Dead, and it's
about a little boy who accidentally crosses into

647
00:41:04.960 --> 00:41:08.039
the other world where all the people
who've passed away are and ends up needing

648
00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:14.079
the help of his grandfather who he
never met, his abuelo. And I

649
00:41:14.199 --> 00:41:16.079
actually had not seen that. I
saw it during the pandemic. Rachel showed

650
00:41:16.079 --> 00:41:20.440
it to me under Disney Plus.
Oh cool. I cried my eyes out

651
00:41:20.760 --> 00:41:23.599
the whole movie. But to me, I mean, Day of the Dead

652
00:41:23.719 --> 00:41:28.519
is very similar to Halloween, and
it is the day after Halloween. So

653
00:41:28.679 --> 00:41:34.679
I'm gonna say my honorable mention for
family friendly scares is Coco, and you

654
00:41:34.719 --> 00:41:37.480
can watch it on Disney Plus or
Prime Video or wherever you you'll find.

655
00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:40.280
It's actually coming back in the theaters
for October as well. Really yeah,

656
00:41:40.360 --> 00:41:45.480
yeah, I don't need to cry
in front of people, so you're not

657
00:41:45.599 --> 00:41:51.440
safe yet. Weekly Spooky will be
right back finishing off a family scar as

658
00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:53.639
we're moving on to seasonal rewatches.
Now. These are horror films that don't

659
00:41:53.679 --> 00:41:58.840
necessarily relate to Halloween, but they
are ones that I find myself revisiting Elise

660
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:01.280
for October, if not September.
First one is one that I found,

661
00:42:01.480 --> 00:42:06.559
like I can't remember which podcast it
was, but somebody was talking about it

662
00:42:06.840 --> 00:42:12.519
and it's called Curse of the Dead
from nineteen fifty It was not Experience,

663
00:42:14.079 --> 00:42:20.400
was it. I can't think of
another podcast. Curse of the Undead is

664
00:42:20.599 --> 00:42:23.840
basically the story of a vampire in
the Old West. It's from nineteen fifty

665
00:42:23.920 --> 00:42:31.920
nine. It stars Eric Fleming and
Christopher Plante while a madly while Malady Malady

666
00:42:32.159 --> 00:42:36.000
while a Malady is claiming the lives
of young women in western town. A

667
00:42:36.039 --> 00:42:38.400
sinister Gunslinger for hire. Drake Rob
is a real vampire and it's up to

668
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:42.800
preach your Dan to save the town
and girlfriend Laura's Carter. It's a very

669
00:42:42.880 --> 00:42:45.480
simple movie. You don't really see
any on screen violence that I can recall

670
00:42:45.679 --> 00:42:50.360
and into my knowledge too. You
don't ever actually see him like vamp out,

671
00:42:50.440 --> 00:42:52.880
but they always hint on it with
shadows the way it's shot. Yeah,

672
00:42:52.960 --> 00:42:57.320
from nineteen fifty nine one hour in
nineteen minutes as well, and it's

673
00:42:57.320 --> 00:43:00.400
a it's a very quick watch and
it's a lot of fun. It's one

674
00:43:00.440 --> 00:43:02.360
that I find myself revisiting. I've
not seen that I want to watch it.

675
00:43:02.440 --> 00:43:06.360
I will bring it over absolutely.
It's definitely one that you can find

676
00:43:06.360 --> 00:43:08.719
easily too because it is currently on
Prime Video and it is also on two

677
00:43:08.800 --> 00:43:13.280
B so easily available. Curse of
the Undead cannot recommend it enough. Nice.

678
00:43:13.320 --> 00:43:15.280
That's a nice deep cut. Yeah. Moving on to another deep cut,

679
00:43:15.679 --> 00:43:19.000
one that has kind of gotten some
love in the last couple of years

680
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:23.079
thanks to Shutter two thousands. The
Convent, which is the movie from Mike

681
00:43:23.119 --> 00:43:27.280
Mendez. This is the story of
a group of college students break into an

682
00:43:27.320 --> 00:43:30.159
abandoned convent and become possessed by demonic
spirits has a huge Night of the Demons

683
00:43:30.159 --> 00:43:34.519
feel to it. But what I
love about this movie is it's got a

684
00:43:34.519 --> 00:43:37.280
lot of humor to it. But
the opening is watching this woman go into

685
00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:42.280
the church and just beat the shit
out of nuns in regards to like blowing

686
00:43:42.320 --> 00:43:45.880
them away and all this stuff.
Mendez is hilarious. He's a very talented

687
00:43:45.880 --> 00:43:49.840
director. I mean the thing I
always think of when I think of him

688
00:43:49.840 --> 00:43:53.639
as big ass spider. Yes,
because what a title. And The Convent

689
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:59.880
is readily available on multiple including shutter
amc Plus Plex, Freevy Pollution. Make

690
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:02.559
a note. I want you and
I need to watch this Halloween. We

691
00:44:02.599 --> 00:44:07.199
need to watch The Undead okay,
or and we need to watch that okay,

692
00:44:07.239 --> 00:44:09.880
because I've not seen it. I
want to watch it absolutely and move

693
00:44:09.920 --> 00:44:13.360
it on to another one you haven't
seen, but you're kind of hesitant on

694
00:44:13.519 --> 00:44:16.760
you don't know me. Behind the
Mask the Rise of Leslie from two thousand

695
00:44:16.800 --> 00:44:24.960
and six, Yeah, likea go
ahead, but not. Behind the Mask

696
00:44:25.519 --> 00:44:30.719
was an Anchor Bay release that took
a lot of people by storm because it's

697
00:44:30.800 --> 00:44:35.440
done in the way of a mockumentary
where they basically are following around a psychopath

698
00:44:35.519 --> 00:44:40.000
in this small town. It follows
Leslie Vernon, who was the tragic victim

699
00:44:40.199 --> 00:44:46.119
of a wrongful doing murder. Apparently
like the Cropsy legend, Yeah, which

700
00:44:46.119 --> 00:44:50.480
they based Nightmare or a Friday Thirteenth
on, Yeah, and stuff like,

701
00:44:50.480 --> 00:44:52.079
although kind of Nightmare ONLD Street as
well, because they did't burn Freddie and

702
00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:57.599
they burned Cropsy. And they referenced
in Michael Myers and Jason and everybody in

703
00:44:57.639 --> 00:45:00.239
it is do they mentioned just Michael
myerser? Is it like they like?

704
00:45:00.320 --> 00:45:06.559
Yeah? So Behind the Mask is
basically the story of a killer that decides

705
00:45:06.599 --> 00:45:09.679
to recruit this camera crew to follow
him around make this documentary of him coming

706
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:14.039
back on his anniversary for this big
kill. He's telling them about the virgin

707
00:45:14.119 --> 00:45:16.440
he's stalking. He goes over the
kills, the places, goes over the

708
00:45:16.480 --> 00:45:20.840
cardio. He has to do to
make it look like he's running when he's

709
00:45:21.320 --> 00:45:22.880
run walking when he's actually trying to
run. Yeah, because he has to

710
00:45:22.920 --> 00:45:25.000
run when they're not looking. Yep, all that stuff. And one of

711
00:45:25.079 --> 00:45:30.400
my biggest favorites about it is Scott
Wilson is in it, the guy who

712
00:45:30.400 --> 00:45:32.559
played Herschel on The Walking Day Yeah, he was in the host. Yeah,

713
00:45:32.599 --> 00:45:37.199
he was also in the host.
He plays this former big killer.

714
00:45:37.239 --> 00:45:39.800
They never really name him, but
he's basically the mentor for Leslie. And

715
00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:44.039
he's got two scenes in the movie
where he basically steals the show where when

716
00:45:44.039 --> 00:45:45.320
they first introduced him, they go
to find him in this field. He's

717
00:45:45.320 --> 00:45:51.760
been into sensory deprivation tank for three
days. Hey, that's pretty funny.

718
00:45:51.880 --> 00:45:54.280
But you've got Robert England makes an
appearance. Delbo Ruden's team makes an appearance.

719
00:45:54.599 --> 00:45:58.000
Nathan Basil, huge shout out to
him. Is Leslie Vernon. It

720
00:45:58.280 --> 00:46:01.800
hugely charismatic kill that you fall in
love with, and then the movie takes

721
00:46:01.840 --> 00:46:06.559
a huge swerve at the last half
hour. Really really worth it. Behind

722
00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:09.960
the Mask is currently available on AMC
Plus. You can also get it readily

723
00:46:09.960 --> 00:46:13.760
available from Shot Factory. They put
out a beautiful edition of it a couple

724
00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:15.960
of years back as well. All
right, Behind the Mask The Rise of

725
00:46:16.039 --> 00:46:19.880
Levesley Vernon. I just have not
gotten around to watching it. A couple

726
00:46:19.880 --> 00:46:22.360
of my friends disliked it, yeah
enough to keep me from watching it,

727
00:46:22.400 --> 00:46:25.480
but I am curious. I get
it. So moving on to two thousand

728
00:46:25.559 --> 00:46:30.079
seven's Brutal Massacre a comedy. Really, that's a HALLOWEENI for you. It

729
00:46:30.159 --> 00:46:34.760
is because I just the overall feel
of it, even though like it doesn't

730
00:46:34.760 --> 00:46:37.679
really have any Halloween vibes to it. It's just a fun making of a

731
00:46:37.679 --> 00:46:42.320
scary movie where everything goes wrong.
The scariest part of that movie is that

732
00:46:42.360 --> 00:46:45.159
it reminds me of my own life, being on sets and everything. Now

733
00:46:45.280 --> 00:46:50.519
seeing that movie, yeah, I
totally feel Brutal Massacre Comedy is Dave one

734
00:46:50.519 --> 00:46:52.400
of Dave and I's biggest favorites.
Yes, did you introduce me to it?

735
00:46:53.679 --> 00:46:55.840
I totally did, because I think
did I show it to you when

736
00:46:55.840 --> 00:46:59.280
I got my Blue ray? Or
have we already we'd already watched? Yeah,

737
00:46:59.320 --> 00:47:00.239
because I have the DVD the other
one from Anchor Bay that kind of

738
00:47:00.280 --> 00:47:04.440
snuck out in two thousand and seven. I found it through Fangoria and then

739
00:47:04.480 --> 00:47:07.079
one of my good buddies back in
Troy. I actually stayed at this house

740
00:47:07.119 --> 00:47:09.239
one night and we watched it.
I remember why I watched Brutal Massacre?

741
00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:14.679
You do? Gunner died when Gunner
Hansen passed away. Gunner Hanson, he

742
00:47:14.719 --> 00:47:16.639
played a leather face in the original
Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Yeah. He has

743
00:47:16.679 --> 00:47:21.800
a major, amazing role in the
film. Yeah, and I saw clips

744
00:47:21.840 --> 00:47:23.880
of it, you know, when
people were doing dedications to Gunner. Yeah,

745
00:47:23.920 --> 00:47:25.800
and I went, man, I
want to watch Brutal Masaker. And

746
00:47:25.800 --> 00:47:29.400
you're like, oh, bro,
dude, bro, that sounds like brought

747
00:47:29.440 --> 00:47:32.519
it over. Yeah. So it's
done by Steve Menna who did the Malevolence

748
00:47:32.559 --> 00:47:36.880
series. So Malevolence won two,
Bereavement, and I can't remember. I

749
00:47:36.880 --> 00:47:39.239
think third one's called Killer. This
is a straight up comedy done as a

750
00:47:39.320 --> 00:47:44.280
mockumentary. Again. You have David
Naughton that's playing this famed horror director who's

751
00:47:44.320 --> 00:47:46.880
kind of on the outs named Harry
Penderecki, and he's trying to shoot this

752
00:47:46.880 --> 00:47:51.159
film called Brutal Massacre. That's kind
of his comeback movie, which which is

753
00:47:51.199 --> 00:47:52.639
extra funny because like he'll be like, and we want to make this movie.

754
00:47:52.679 --> 00:47:55.679
It's about it's about love and finding
things that da da da, And

755
00:47:55.679 --> 00:47:59.199
they're like, oh, that sounds
great. What's it called Brutal Massacre?

756
00:47:59.440 --> 00:48:01.039
And then they just don't talk to
him anymore. They do not. But

757
00:48:01.159 --> 00:48:05.119
Brutal Massacre is a is a seasonal
revisit for me. Like I said,

758
00:48:05.159 --> 00:48:07.000
just because it's it's the making of
a horror film, so there's a lot

759
00:48:07.039 --> 00:48:10.320
of call. There's a lot of
references to other horror films. You have

760
00:48:10.360 --> 00:48:15.039
a lot of appearances by like Brian
O'Halleran, Henrik bentioned, Gunner Hansen.

761
00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:16.719
You've got a bunch of people in
it, Ken Free, who has a

762
00:48:16.760 --> 00:48:23.079
hilarious spoiler. Yeah. So it's
one of those that is very underrated.

763
00:48:23.119 --> 00:48:25.639
I wish more eyes would get on
it, especially with that Blu Ray release,

764
00:48:25.679 --> 00:48:29.360
But you can find it right now
on to Be and if you really

765
00:48:29.360 --> 00:48:30.519
like it, definitely check out that
Blu Ray release. It's got some great

766
00:48:30.559 --> 00:48:35.440
bonus material and a decent transfer as
well. Yeah, Brutal massacres a hilarious

767
00:48:35.480 --> 00:48:39.159
movie. I think about, I
think about Gunner Hansen's character and laugh multiple

768
00:48:39.159 --> 00:48:42.440
times a month. Yeah, it's
so good. So moving on, we

769
00:48:42.480 --> 00:48:45.920
have nineteen eighty six is Night of
the Creeps, from the same director of

770
00:48:45.920 --> 00:48:50.519
Monster Squad, Fred Decker, comes
a movie that I feel like just embodies

771
00:48:50.559 --> 00:48:52.840
Halloween, even though I don't think
it has a single thing. It's a

772
00:48:52.880 --> 00:48:57.480
prom night, but like just the
way the monsters are and like these are

773
00:48:57.559 --> 00:49:00.199
all feel of it. Yeah,
this is a alien invasion zombie thing.

774
00:49:00.360 --> 00:49:06.519
So these these little slugs, aliens, slugs jump into your mouth or potentially

775
00:49:06.519 --> 00:49:12.320
other orifices and then take you over. And basically you are walking dead until

776
00:49:12.599 --> 00:49:15.480
you fill with more because they breed
inside you, and then you fall in

777
00:49:15.519 --> 00:49:20.119
the ground and splash open, and
then more of them are loose, and

778
00:49:20.239 --> 00:49:22.840
it's it is a fun one.
It's the first film by Fred Decker of

779
00:49:22.880 --> 00:49:27.960
Monster Squads. He made Night of
the Creeps and then he made Monster Squad

780
00:49:28.639 --> 00:49:30.800
and Night of the Creeps. I
always said that Monster Squad was like his

781
00:49:30.920 --> 00:49:34.599
kids movie, and Night of the
Creeps is like his young adult movie.

782
00:49:34.760 --> 00:49:37.840
Yeah, because Night of the Creeps
is about college kids, and Monster Squads

783
00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:43.199
about kids and barely junior high.
And what I love about Night of the

784
00:49:43.239 --> 00:49:46.119
Creeps is Tom Atkins has a just
killer role in it. I mean he

785
00:49:46.920 --> 00:49:50.920
crafted the line Thrilled Me, which
you've probably seen on T shirts and seen

786
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:54.679
in all the compilations of horror.
But he plays this cop that basically I

787
00:49:54.719 --> 00:49:58.920
can't remember if he did he catch
the axe murderer, yeah, he,

788
00:49:59.320 --> 00:50:01.519
but in the ax was hacking up
his girlfriend, his college or his high

789
00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:05.519
school girlfriend or whatever, and the
axe Murder at one point gets resurrected and

790
00:50:05.559 --> 00:50:07.079
Tom has to face him. It's
such a good flow. Well because he

791
00:50:07.360 --> 00:50:12.400
didn't he killed him. Yeah,
he killed the axe murder and buried him.

792
00:50:13.920 --> 00:50:15.320
So when he comes back he has
to face the fact that he murdered

793
00:50:15.360 --> 00:50:20.920
someone. There's that's that movie has
so many great moments. Atkins plays.

794
00:50:21.079 --> 00:50:25.239
You know the term hard boiled cop. Yeah, he's he's like overboiled cop,

795
00:50:25.480 --> 00:50:29.800
like because he's just like the whole
part where he's like, so that's

796
00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:32.679
a really interesting story and all,
but aside from wanting to confess to a

797
00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:37.719
murder, why are you telling it
to us? He's like, honestly,

798
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:42.400
Spanky, I don't know. I
love that movie. It's so good.

799
00:50:42.599 --> 00:50:49.119
Screaming. Yeah, there's a character
in it. He like when when the

800
00:50:49.159 --> 00:50:52.039
cop is describing back to him he's
a janitor at the college. Well,

801
00:50:52.079 --> 00:50:53.440
these guys ran by, he says, and you said that he got these

802
00:50:53.480 --> 00:50:57.920
boys ran by screaming like banshees.
For whatever reason, this Asian immigrant guy

803
00:50:58.320 --> 00:51:00.639
just cannot get enough of the terms
screaming like band cheese. He just finds

804
00:51:00.639 --> 00:51:04.559
it really funny. So every time
we see him following up he's just like

805
00:51:04.639 --> 00:51:07.800
screaming like a bun cheese. So
Nine of the Creeps is available to rent

806
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:12.320
on Prime and Voodoo. I also
recommend it's one of those that if you

807
00:51:12.519 --> 00:51:15.440
if you like collecting movies or owning
them, that's one to pick up.

808
00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:19.440
You've got a version that lions Gate
put out some years ago and then recently

809
00:51:19.519 --> 00:51:22.280
Shout Factory I think actually put it
on four K actually too. And you

810
00:51:22.360 --> 00:51:27.079
know you probably don't remember it used
to be that was really hard to find.

811
00:51:27.079 --> 00:51:29.400
It was a super hard one to
find because I remember the day I

812
00:51:29.440 --> 00:51:32.320
went to Walmart and bought it.
It was on USA Network a lot.

813
00:51:32.400 --> 00:51:36.679
Yeah, when I was very young. That's how I remember it. It's

814
00:51:36.719 --> 00:51:38.800
a it's a absolute blast or Night
of the Creeps from nineteen eighty six,

815
00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:43.599
you cannot go wrong. Oh.
Also as a kid, I like a

816
00:51:43.719 --> 00:51:45.559
very young kid, like eight years
old, I got Night of the Creeps

817
00:51:45.559 --> 00:51:49.599
and Fright Night Confused. I got
nighte of the Creeps and Night of the

818
00:51:49.599 --> 00:51:52.199
Demons Confused. Well, that's stupid. You were a stupid child. Nine

819
00:51:52.239 --> 00:51:54.800
of the Creeps always throws me off
because it starts of that alien scene that

820
00:51:54.800 --> 00:51:59.119
I always forget about where they're chasing
the alien through the ship. They're literally

821
00:51:59.159 --> 00:52:02.000
aliens. I know, but I
always forget that. But I remember one

822
00:52:02.039 --> 00:52:06.039
time, and I love Fright Night
a lot. But I remember I was

823
00:52:06.079 --> 00:52:07.840
a kid and I was hanging out
with all my dad Spiker buddies kids,

824
00:52:08.320 --> 00:52:12.280
and they were like, we're gonna
watch freaking Fright Night. And I was

825
00:52:12.320 --> 00:52:14.159
like, oh man, and I
went in. It was just this like

826
00:52:14.440 --> 00:52:17.119
movie about a guy next door to
a Natan vampire. And I was like,

827
00:52:17.119 --> 00:52:21.199
oh man, I was hoping for
the movie where like the beds are

828
00:52:21.199 --> 00:52:23.880
breaking open and the worms are going
everywhere. And little did I know,

829
00:52:24.000 --> 00:52:27.239
just a few years later I'd be
like, oh man, Fright Nights the

830
00:52:27.440 --> 00:52:30.840
yesh, Yes, it is so
sticking in the eighties that we're gonna go

831
00:52:30.960 --> 00:52:34.800
up to eighty one with House by
the Cemetery, the Luccio Fulci classic.

832
00:52:34.920 --> 00:52:37.239
Oh yeah. I put this on
my list solely because this is a good

833
00:52:37.280 --> 00:52:40.079
haunted house that's not a haunted house. It's the best way to play.

834
00:52:40.159 --> 00:52:43.400
You're putting it in there because of
that time. We decided to watch it

835
00:52:43.440 --> 00:52:46.039
at midnight on a Saturday. It
creeped us out horribly. One of those

836
00:52:46.039 --> 00:52:50.079
movies I have watched on midnight multiple
times and it does always creep me out.

837
00:52:50.079 --> 00:52:52.239
I actually got to see it for
the first time at Horrorama, like

838
00:52:52.400 --> 00:52:55.119
my first Horrorma ever. Now that
they think about it, and I remember

839
00:52:55.159 --> 00:52:58.559
our good friend who's no longer with
a sandy cop. At the end,

840
00:52:58.880 --> 00:53:00.960
literally the lights come up and he's
like, all right, who got it?

841
00:53:00.000 --> 00:53:05.760
Who? Who understands? I love
the house by the cemetery, but

842
00:53:06.239 --> 00:53:08.159
I think had I bought I bought
the Blu ray right, Yeah you did.

843
00:53:08.519 --> 00:53:12.519
And we were hanging out. So
for those who are not in the

844
00:53:12.559 --> 00:53:15.440
know, hanging out at my house
and watching movies is different and hang out

845
00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:21.320
other people's houses because I've got I've
got a giant projector screen, one hundred

846
00:53:21.320 --> 00:53:27.519
and twenty inch screen that projects in
full HD and so and with five point

847
00:53:27.519 --> 00:53:30.639
once around. So when I would
we say, like, let's watch a

848
00:53:30.639 --> 00:53:35.239
really creepy movie at midnight, Yeah, I mean it's like you're in the

849
00:53:35.320 --> 00:53:38.599
local art house. Theater has two
rooms and the second room screen is the

850
00:53:38.639 --> 00:53:44.199
size of my screen. Yeah,
so it's so, yeah, we got

851
00:53:44.239 --> 00:53:45.360
really creeped out. I remember when
that movie was over. That was when

852
00:53:45.400 --> 00:53:50.639
I went freaking Fulci's just the man. Yeah. Absolutely. House by the

853
00:53:50.639 --> 00:53:52.960
Cemetery is the story of a New
England home terrorized by a series of murders,

854
00:53:53.079 --> 00:53:57.280
unbeknownst to the new owners that a
gruesome secret is also hiding in the

855
00:53:57.280 --> 00:54:00.320
basement. This movie has a little
bit of every thing. You've got monsters,

856
00:54:00.360 --> 00:54:04.599
You've got a hilarious scene with a
bat that attacks and a guy driving

857
00:54:04.599 --> 00:54:07.920
scissors through his hand and through the
back. Yes, you've got a great

858
00:54:08.000 --> 00:54:13.320
score. Luccio Fulci as this as
part of his Gates of Hell trilogy,

859
00:54:13.400 --> 00:54:16.400
So you've got the Beyond This or
no, the Beyond City Living Dead and

860
00:54:16.400 --> 00:54:20.880
then this right. Yeah, so
House of the Cemetery. It's a gory,

861
00:54:21.639 --> 00:54:25.079
sleazy, rampant times and also just
has a really really strong ending that

862
00:54:25.119 --> 00:54:28.760
kind of leaves you going, what
did I just watch? I love it.

863
00:54:28.880 --> 00:54:30.840
I think that was the film that
really made me realize he's a genius

864
00:54:30.840 --> 00:54:37.239
at at setting a dread feeling.
You can watch House by the Cemetery at

865
00:54:37.320 --> 00:54:40.199
late at night is where it'll really
get you. Absolutely, but you watch

866
00:54:40.239 --> 00:54:45.199
it anytime. It'll just the way
he moves the camera and shows people's facial

867
00:54:45.239 --> 00:54:49.239
expressions alone will creep you out.
That's a movie that I'm always in the

868
00:54:49.239 --> 00:54:51.719
mood to watch. And you'll also
get tired of the name Bob after a

869
00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:55.039
while too, Oh poor Bob.
You can find House with the Cemetery currently

870
00:54:55.039 --> 00:55:00.280
streaming on shutter AMC Plus and also
Full Moon if you are a collector want

871
00:55:00.280 --> 00:55:02.360
to own it. Blue Underground has
a great four K of it. I

872
00:55:02.400 --> 00:55:05.719
think Arrows is getting ready to release
one, and if you want to get

873
00:55:05.760 --> 00:55:07.440
a Blue ray you can also find
that from Blue Underground as well. That

874
00:55:07.599 --> 00:55:10.559
is a fantastic movie. I cannot
recommend it enough and at eighty six minutes

875
00:55:10.559 --> 00:55:14.880
you're basically in and out and a
lot of carnage happens. House by the

876
00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:17.159
Cemetery is a twisted, twisted flick. Yes it is. So what's next

877
00:55:17.360 --> 00:55:21.920
on your whatever? What part of
the list is? This is we are

878
00:55:21.960 --> 00:55:25.039
on seasonal rewatches, So we're going
to go into nineteen sixty three with Dementia

879
00:55:25.119 --> 00:55:29.360
thirteen. Go in a little public
domain, public domain, and that is

880
00:55:29.400 --> 00:55:31.760
exactly one of the reasons that I
picked this one. Dementia thirteen is a

881
00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:36.280
movie that you probably have seen scenes
from, but you haven't realized it because

882
00:55:36.320 --> 00:55:38.280
anytime somebody's watching a horror film.
In a movie that's not Night of the

883
00:55:38.320 --> 00:55:42.719
Living Dead, ninety percent of the
time, it's Dementia thirteen. I think

884
00:55:42.840 --> 00:55:45.719
more often it's Carnival of Souls,
Carnival thirteens in there too. It's a

885
00:55:45.760 --> 00:55:49.840
great it's the first film by Francis
Ford Kopla. Yes it is, and

886
00:55:49.960 --> 00:55:53.800
the guy went on to do The
Godfather and The Godfather three. Yes,

887
00:55:53.880 --> 00:56:01.039
and but no, it's it's a
phenomenal example of how talented filmmaker doesn't necessarily

888
00:56:01.119 --> 00:56:06.199
need that much. Yeah, to
make an interesting we now granted when we

889
00:56:06.239 --> 00:56:07.760
say he didn't have a lot,
he had like a castle in Ireland.

890
00:56:07.880 --> 00:56:10.880
Yes, he did, but the
movie didn't have a ton of money to

891
00:56:10.880 --> 00:56:14.440
work with. It was shot in
black and white during a time when you

892
00:56:14.480 --> 00:56:16.360
could shoot movies in color. Yeah, and that was to save money.

893
00:56:16.280 --> 00:56:19.920
Yeah. It was produced by the
legendary Roger Corman, who, at the

894
00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:22.639
time Francis for Koppola was his assistant. Yeah, I knew that. Yeah,

895
00:56:22.800 --> 00:56:27.760
that's so awesome to mention. Thirteen's
the story about a family that is

896
00:56:27.800 --> 00:56:30.519
shocked by the death of Excime's shocked
by the death for spouse, a scheming

897
00:56:30.559 --> 00:56:32.480
widow hatches a bold plan to get
her hands on the inheritance, unaware that

898
00:56:32.519 --> 00:56:36.639
she is targeted by an axe wielding
murderer who lurks in the family's estate.

899
00:56:36.960 --> 00:56:39.440
What mystery shouts the Noble House.
It's a great haunted house movie, even

900
00:56:39.440 --> 00:56:43.079
though there is no real haunts to
it. But there's a lot of mystery

901
00:56:43.199 --> 00:56:45.480
in regards who's doing the murders.
You have a lot of story in regards

902
00:56:45.519 --> 00:56:50.000
to the death of the spouse.
It's one of those movies also that recently

903
00:56:50.039 --> 00:56:52.119
became available in the way that Coppola
wanted us to see it, because they

904
00:56:52.199 --> 00:56:55.199
chopped off what the first like five
minutes of them, something like that,

905
00:56:55.280 --> 00:57:00.079
the cheesy like opening where they have
the release I believe. Yeah, the

906
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:04.719
full best. Restron recently put it
out. It's readily available. You can

907
00:57:04.760 --> 00:57:07.119
find it pretty much anywhere because,
like I said, it's public domain,

908
00:57:07.239 --> 00:57:10.400
but as of this recording, it's
on free v Crackle, filmbox, MGM

909
00:57:10.440 --> 00:57:14.320
plus. It's public domain. It's
everywhere. It'll be our next season of

910
00:57:14.320 --> 00:57:16.559
popcorn fodder. I'm not joking.
Hell yeah, we're doing that. That's

911
00:57:16.559 --> 00:57:20.800
gonna happen when when that comes around. So to bench of thirteen, nineteen

912
00:57:20.840 --> 00:57:23.800
sixty three. Definitely check it out. Another one that recently has gotten its

913
00:57:23.800 --> 00:57:28.360
notoriety because of a release one of
my personal favorites from the eighties Alone in

914
00:57:28.400 --> 00:57:32.880
the Dark nineteen eighty two. This
is a wild one. That's the one

915
00:57:32.880 --> 00:57:36.800
with all the crazy people. Yes, it is so nineteen eighty two.

916
00:57:36.840 --> 00:57:39.760
A few dangerous and delusional mental patients
break out of the mental asylum during a

917
00:57:39.800 --> 00:57:44.119
power blackout and Lacey eage to the
new doctor's house, who they believe killed

918
00:57:44.159 --> 00:57:46.159
their previous doctor. And if you
wanted, you know, more incentive on

919
00:57:46.199 --> 00:57:52.000
who the mental patients are. Oh, Jack Palance, let's see Martin landau

920
00:57:52.280 --> 00:57:58.360
Donald pleasant Donald Pleasance, the guy
that played Dynamo and running Man Erlin Van

921
00:57:58.440 --> 00:58:01.239
Liddith. It's one of the movies
that, for the longest time, it

922
00:58:01.320 --> 00:58:05.400
was only available on an image DVD
that came out in like the early two

923
00:58:05.440 --> 00:58:07.920
thousand tens. I want to say
and then shout, just a couple of

924
00:58:07.960 --> 00:58:12.599
years ago released it. This is
one that is really unsettling. There are

925
00:58:12.599 --> 00:58:15.719
scenes that are super terrifying because once
the lights go out, you basically have

926
00:58:15.800 --> 00:58:17.760
the asylum go completely lose and the
lunatics are out in the set. It's

927
00:58:17.840 --> 00:58:21.599
kind of fun. It's very fun, Like I found it really fun.

928
00:58:21.800 --> 00:58:24.079
Yeah, that was that directed by
Jack Shoulder. Jack Shoulder the director of

929
00:58:24.159 --> 00:58:27.639
Night Renalm Street two. Yes,
sir, this was the film that got

930
00:58:27.719 --> 00:58:31.000
him the job on Night Reynalm Street
too. And Jack Shoulder very underrated director.

931
00:58:31.719 --> 00:58:35.440
I think everything he's done has been
good. Yeah. No, it's

932
00:58:35.519 --> 00:58:37.960
it's one and Alone in the Dark
is a movie that definitely needs to be

933
00:58:38.000 --> 00:58:42.760
rediscovered because it was so unavailable for
the longest time that it was one of

934
00:58:42.800 --> 00:58:45.679
those that when you went to a
horror convention they always had bootlegs of it

935
00:58:45.719 --> 00:58:46.920
because that was the only way to
get it for a while. Yeah.

936
00:58:46.960 --> 00:58:51.079
No, that's a great one to
watch, especially if you are a horror

937
00:58:51.079 --> 00:58:53.159
aficionado and you've never seen it or
heard of it. Yeah, that's a

938
00:58:53.199 --> 00:58:59.119
deep cut to be recommended, so
I would. I would also double up

939
00:58:59.159 --> 00:59:02.199
on the Alone in the Dark,
although again not the Halloween East movie.

940
00:59:02.320 --> 00:59:06.159
No, I mean, it doesn't
live in None of these are Halloween literal

941
00:59:06.199 --> 00:59:09.400
movies, but they are movies that
you are attracted to in this time seriod

942
00:59:09.440 --> 00:59:14.360
for whatever reason, probably because you're
stupid. So Alone in the Dark.

943
00:59:14.400 --> 00:59:17.159
You can rent on Amazon and it's
also available on Voodoo or like I said

944
00:59:17.159 --> 00:59:20.280
earlier, if you want to get
the Blu ray from Shout, it is

945
00:59:20.320 --> 00:59:23.880
definitely worth it. Did you hear
that? Better check the locks on your

946
00:59:23.920 --> 00:59:30.599
doors weekly, spooky. We'll be
right back. Let's go into the nineties

947
00:59:30.639 --> 00:59:34.400
with one of you and I's Fade's
Hen's body bags, John Carpenter's body bags.

948
00:59:35.480 --> 00:59:38.039
Now we're cooking with gas. Yes, this is a this is a

949
00:59:38.079 --> 00:59:43.400
phenomenal anthology. It might correct.
Two parts directed by Carpenter and one part

950
00:59:43.440 --> 00:59:45.960
directed by Toby Hooper. That is
correct. So John Carpenter, for those

951
00:59:45.000 --> 00:59:51.679
who may not be aware for whatever
reason, directed Halloween and John cart Having

952
00:59:51.719 --> 00:59:59.039
John Carter's Vampire Vampire They Livedness.
He's a phenomenal horror director. And this

953
00:59:59.280 --> 01:00:04.800
was originally a pilot, yes,
for a television series to be on Showtime.

954
01:00:04.960 --> 01:00:07.239
Yes, it was a horror anthology
series. Yeah, it didn't get

955
01:00:07.239 --> 01:00:12.440
picked up, so instead they did
it as a feature film with three episodes,

956
01:00:12.920 --> 01:00:15.159
three segments, yes, two directed
by Carpenter and one directed by Toby

957
01:00:15.159 --> 01:00:22.360
Hooper of Texas Chainsaw Massacre. And
they are fun and sleazy. Because we're

958
01:00:22.360 --> 01:00:28.159
talking early nineties cable. Yeah,
so it's like everything is all about that,

959
01:00:28.239 --> 01:00:30.719
Like, can we add boobs?
Yeah, And you've got one story

960
01:00:30.800 --> 01:00:32.599
is about a serial killer at a
gas station. You've got one that's about

961
01:00:32.639 --> 01:00:37.119
a hair transplant gone wrong. And
the third one is Mark Hamill is a

962
01:00:37.119 --> 01:00:40.199
baseball player that gets a transfusion for
the to get an eye replace. It's

963
01:00:40.199 --> 01:00:44.719
a transplant of an eyeball from a
serial killer killer. Yes, and it's

964
01:00:44.760 --> 01:00:47.239
They're all super fun, super And
one of the things I really want to

965
01:00:47.280 --> 01:00:52.280
point out, there's a ton of
awesome cameos of horror directors and stuff,

966
01:00:52.400 --> 01:00:57.159
but the best one is Wes Craven. Wes Craven. Wes Craven is in

967
01:00:57.199 --> 01:01:00.280
the segment about the woman who's working
at a late night gas station, a

968
01:01:00.360 --> 01:01:04.559
late night fill up place. Yeah, and this and West Criven just plays

969
01:01:04.599 --> 01:01:07.239
a guy who looks a little creepy, but he's just drunk. Yeah,

970
01:01:07.559 --> 01:01:09.480
he's just drunk, and he's been
out ladies and he just wants to get

971
01:01:09.519 --> 01:01:12.960
a pack of cigarettes. And then
he just thinks that she's a babe,

972
01:01:13.000 --> 01:01:15.960
so he's like hitting on her a
little bit. And it's funny because he's

973
01:01:15.960 --> 01:01:20.480
a little creepy, but mostly he's
just kind of odd and then you realize

974
01:01:20.559 --> 01:01:24.320
he ain't who we need to be
worrying about. It's got some amazing effects

975
01:01:24.400 --> 01:01:28.599
in it, especially the first episode
with the gas station murders. There are

976
01:01:28.639 --> 01:01:31.480
some really really sweet kills in that
one, and Body Bags is available to

977
01:01:31.519 --> 01:01:37.719
watch right now on freev Shutter,
Amazon plus Shot Factor TV, Rokum plus

978
01:01:37.800 --> 01:01:42.280
Yeah, Oh what I say,
Amazon plus I apologies, So nineteen ninety

979
01:01:42.280 --> 01:01:45.760
three body Bags John Carvert's Body Bags. Definitely check it out. Moving on

980
01:01:45.840 --> 01:01:49.639
back into the eighties, we're gonna
go with mister Toby Hooper's nineteen eighty one

981
01:01:49.679 --> 01:01:52.360
underrated classic The fun House. Oh
okay, okay, we watched that,

982
01:01:52.400 --> 01:01:57.000
not too we did. I found
it okay. So four teenagers visit a

983
01:01:57.039 --> 01:02:00.719
local carnival for a night an innocent
amusement, but soon just covered that nothing

984
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:04.079
there is innocent or amusing. Basically, what happens is they decide to go

985
01:02:04.119 --> 01:02:07.639
to this carnival. They sneak into
the fun house after dark, not realizing

986
01:02:07.679 --> 01:02:09.880
that the owner of the fun House's
malform son is in there, who ends

987
01:02:09.960 --> 01:02:14.280
up killing a prostitute in front of
them, and then they are running from

988
01:02:14.360 --> 01:02:19.320
him. Shit happens. It is. It's definitely a shit happens but it's

989
01:02:19.320 --> 01:02:22.519
got a lot of atmosphere to it. The opening mocks Halloween heavily, which

990
01:02:22.519 --> 01:02:28.159
is hilarious. You've got a little
a little shit boy brother that this terrorizing

991
01:02:28.159 --> 01:02:30.400
his sister. You've got a guy
in a Frankenstein mass that may or may

992
01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:35.760
not have something underneath the mass that's
even more terrifying. Yeah, there's a

993
01:02:35.760 --> 01:02:38.400
lot going There's an insane amount going
on in this movie to keep you interesting.

994
01:02:38.480 --> 01:02:40.639
It can be a little slow in
the beginning, but once they get

995
01:02:40.679 --> 01:02:44.880
into the fun House, it really
takes off. And also the reason the

996
01:02:44.920 --> 01:02:47.000
reason I put this on the list
is because this is one that Monster Fest

997
01:02:47.039 --> 01:02:52.960
AMC used to show all the goddamn
time. So The fun House nineteen eighty

998
01:02:52.000 --> 01:02:54.960
one Toby Hooper. You can get
it on AMC Plus. It is also

999
01:02:54.960 --> 01:03:00.519
available on Peacock as well, and
it's definitely highly recommended. Nineteen eighty six.

1000
01:03:00.639 --> 01:03:05.960
Moving into The Frighteners done by Peter
Jackson. Okay, Frighteners is a

1001
01:03:06.360 --> 01:03:07.800
fun one. I really like that. That's one you could almost watch with

1002
01:03:07.920 --> 01:03:10.719
kids. You could. There there's
some there's some graphic violence, to it

1003
01:03:10.719 --> 01:03:15.840
and in a little bit of sexual
content but nothing to major. Basically the

1004
01:03:15.840 --> 01:03:19.719
story of after a tragic car accident
that kills his wife, a man discovers

1005
01:03:19.760 --> 01:03:22.800
he can communicate with the dead.
He uses that gift to con people.

1006
01:03:22.840 --> 01:03:24.639
However, when a demonic spirit appears, he may be the only one who

1007
01:03:24.679 --> 01:03:28.920
could stop it from killing the living
and the dead. Starring Michael J.

1008
01:03:29.039 --> 01:03:31.719
Fox. Michael J. Fox,
directed by Peter Jackson, also features a

1009
01:03:31.840 --> 01:03:37.360
great and psychotic performance from d Wallace
and Jake Busey, oh and and Jeffrey

1010
01:03:37.360 --> 01:03:40.519
Cones and Jeffreys out of his mind
in that film. I love it.

1011
01:03:40.559 --> 01:03:44.480
Our good buddy John Aston plays one
of the spirits that Michael J. Fox

1012
01:03:44.559 --> 01:03:46.679
communicates. Oh he plays like a
forty nine the Judge. Yeah, oh

1013
01:03:46.760 --> 01:03:50.480
yeah, yes, so good.
That movie's a lot of fun if you

1014
01:03:50.599 --> 01:03:53.519
like quirky ghost characters. Yeah.
Really, there's no movie that tops it.

1015
01:03:53.639 --> 01:03:55.760
And I actually so. I was
listening to one of my favorite pocast

1016
01:03:55.840 --> 01:03:59.360
junk food cinema this week and they
did an episode on it. I found

1017
01:03:59.360 --> 01:04:01.000
out that it was a originally intended
to be a Tales from the Cript pilot.

1018
01:04:01.599 --> 01:04:05.000
Really yeah, and supposedly something fell
through with it, so they just

1019
01:04:05.079 --> 01:04:09.599
ended up giving the script to Jackson, and Jackson took it and delivered the

1020
01:04:09.639 --> 01:04:12.679
fright I know that Bob Zemeckis was
a part of it, Yes he was.

1021
01:04:12.760 --> 01:04:16.159
Yeah, and they did Bob Yell
and Bob Zemeckis did the Bobs do

1022
01:04:16.239 --> 01:04:20.360
it. Fran Walsh and Peter Jackson
credits is curious because they were the writing

1023
01:04:20.360 --> 01:04:24.480
team behind Back to the Future and
for a little while they were the golden

1024
01:04:24.559 --> 01:04:28.440
children of all of Hollywood. Ye, any script they wrote, especially Bordello

1025
01:04:28.519 --> 01:04:32.840
of Blood Decide, had to be
valued highly just because they had, you

1026
01:04:32.880 --> 01:04:36.719
know, struck gold with Back to
the Future. So The Frighteners nineteen ninety

1027
01:04:36.760 --> 01:04:40.280
six a lot of fun, has
some super scary moments as well, and

1028
01:04:40.360 --> 01:04:43.039
like Hendrick said, depending on your
kids, you could probably watch that with

1029
01:04:43.079 --> 01:04:45.639
the family. It is a it's
a great it's a great one. I

1030
01:04:45.639 --> 01:04:47.559
mean that one was on Sci Fi
Channel all time. Yeah, when I

1031
01:04:47.599 --> 01:04:50.480
was a kid. It's keeping up
into the eighties again, let's go with

1032
01:04:50.639 --> 01:04:56.679
nineteen eighties Motel. Hell oh,
all right, because another one that AMC

1033
01:04:56.800 --> 01:05:00.679
Monster Fest played all the goddamn time. I ever tell you the story of

1034
01:05:00.679 --> 01:05:02.440
how I first watched Motel Hell.
You may have a go ahead. I'm

1035
01:05:02.519 --> 01:05:06.320
well. So when I was a
kid, I was always told motel hell

1036
01:05:06.800 --> 01:05:10.719
is like that's what's up? Yeah, you know, but I'd never seen

1037
01:05:10.760 --> 01:05:14.280
it because it was never on TV
when I was a kid. So I'm

1038
01:05:14.280 --> 01:05:18.119
in middle school, I think,
yeah, middle school, and I did

1039
01:05:18.239 --> 01:05:21.519
a video project, which was not
normal. I basically asked, hey,

1040
01:05:21.519 --> 01:05:25.079
could I do a video instead of
a regular thing, and the teacher said

1041
01:05:25.119 --> 01:05:29.239
sure. And I did this video
and it did well. So then the

1042
01:05:29.239 --> 01:05:32.679
teacher asked me if I would do
a video to kids reading poetry. So

1043
01:05:32.719 --> 01:05:39.719
I did, and my payment quote
unquote was I got two Blockbuster gift cards.

1044
01:05:39.760 --> 01:05:45.199
Oh yeah, And I went out
and rented Motel Hell and wow,

1045
01:05:45.400 --> 01:05:48.800
me and my me and my my
middle school buddy James, we were not

1046
01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:56.199
really prepared his Motel hell is is. It's it's almost like it's trying to

1047
01:05:56.239 --> 01:06:01.960
trick you. Yeah, because you
don't really It's so gradually slips into total

1048
01:06:02.039 --> 01:06:09.159
insanity that by the time there are
there's a guy with a pighead on top

1049
01:06:09.239 --> 01:06:13.400
of his head holding a chainsaw.
You're actually not surprised, No, you're

1050
01:06:13.440 --> 01:06:17.639
not. It really is like a
gradual descent into being completely insane. It

1051
01:06:17.679 --> 01:06:20.960
really is, and it's super good. It really is. A seemingly friendly

1052
01:06:20.960 --> 01:06:25.840
farmer and his sister kidnap unsuspecting travelers
and bury them alive, using them to

1053
01:06:25.840 --> 01:06:29.039
create the special meat that they are
famous for. It takes all kinds of

1054
01:06:29.079 --> 01:06:32.079
critters to make Farmer Vincent's fritters.
And the couple is played or the brother

1055
01:06:32.119 --> 01:06:35.639
and sister are played by the great
Rory Calhoun, who was an angel.

1056
01:06:35.760 --> 01:06:40.000
I'm blanking on the main thing that
we've seen him in recently. What was

1057
01:06:40.039 --> 01:06:43.440
it? I'm sorry, Rory Calhoun. He was in something recently though I

1058
01:06:43.440 --> 01:06:46.159
can't remember. But then the other
person is Nancy Parsons, who was famous

1059
01:06:46.159 --> 01:06:49.760
for playing Beauley leb Ballbricker in the
Porky series. Oh yeah, yeah,

1060
01:06:49.800 --> 01:06:55.039
she plays the sister. Yeah,
and their relationships confused, very confused.

1061
01:06:55.119 --> 01:06:58.119
Yes. Directed by Kevin Connor,
this is one that if you haven't seen

1062
01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:00.079
Motel Hell, it is the perfect
time to watch it and you can find

1063
01:07:00.119 --> 01:07:04.079
it readily available right now on free
v as well as Pluto and two be

1064
01:07:04.239 --> 01:07:08.679
so makes it's out there. Yeah, Motel Hell. That is a blast.

1065
01:07:08.880 --> 01:07:11.840
And that's another one that it is
weird and perverted, but it was

1066
01:07:11.880 --> 01:07:14.480
like PG wasn't it, No,
it was our it was O. But

1067
01:07:14.760 --> 01:07:18.079
it's like almost almost Okay. What
always made me laugh was it wasn't available

1068
01:07:18.119 --> 01:07:23.320
on DVD for the longest time until
MGM put it out with Freaking Deranged.

1069
01:07:23.639 --> 01:07:26.440
Yes, that was a double feature
with Derange. That was the first time

1070
01:07:26.440 --> 01:07:30.159
I owned motel hell because I rented
it on VHS. Yeah, yeah,

1071
01:07:30.280 --> 01:07:33.239
no, that was yeah, good
old Derange, a double feature, gonna

1072
01:07:33.239 --> 01:07:38.960
have so moving on nineteen seventy seven. I knew that I saw it ahead

1073
01:07:39.199 --> 01:07:43.559
nineteen seventy seven. Our dar Yar
Agento's what they call as masterpiece, and

1074
01:07:43.599 --> 01:07:48.840
I would probably agree Susyria. I'm
not a huge fan. I know you're

1075
01:07:48.840 --> 01:07:53.360
not. I know you're not and
it and largely due to the fact that

1076
01:07:53.400 --> 01:07:55.920
you did like it for a long
time. But when we watched it together,

1077
01:07:55.920 --> 01:07:58.800
it's not a bad movie by any
stratch. You know. It's a

1078
01:07:58.800 --> 01:08:03.079
little boring. But but my problem
with my problem with our Gento's movies,

1079
01:08:03.199 --> 01:08:10.960
yeah, is that he's not that
big on storytelling. No, and I

1080
01:08:10.960 --> 01:08:13.599
am big on storytelling. You've turned
me over to faulty. I mean,

1081
01:08:14.280 --> 01:08:16.359
Hendrick can tell you, I used
to be a huge Argento fan until we

1082
01:08:16.520 --> 01:08:21.560
started watching the new Blu Ray releases
that I would bring over and slowly started

1083
01:08:21.680 --> 01:08:26.119
realizing that the movies I thought I
loved I did not. Suspiria, though,

1084
01:08:26.199 --> 01:08:29.359
is not one of those. I
love this movie. It is a

1085
01:08:29.720 --> 01:08:34.600
descent into colors and spend, music
and just madness, the story of an

1086
01:08:34.600 --> 01:08:39.640
American newcomer to a prestigious German ballet
academy comes to realize that the school is

1087
01:08:39.640 --> 01:08:43.319
a front for something sinister amid a
series of grizzly murders. The opening of

1088
01:08:43.319 --> 01:08:45.920
Suspiria. If the opening doesn't grab
you, then you're probably watching the wrong

1089
01:08:45.960 --> 01:08:50.079
movie, and you're probably already did. It also has one of my all

1090
01:08:50.079 --> 01:08:54.520
time favorite taglines, which is the
only thing more terrifying than The last twelve

1091
01:08:54.520 --> 01:08:57.960
minutes of Suspiria are the first ninety
two, even though the whole film is

1092
01:08:58.000 --> 01:09:02.279
ninety two minutes long. Well.
I don't know if Italians are known for

1093
01:09:02.319 --> 01:09:06.760
their math skills, I guess,
but Suspiria has an amazing score by Goblin.

1094
01:09:06.960 --> 01:09:12.199
It's got a lot of nightmarish imagery, some really brutal kills, and

1095
01:09:12.239 --> 01:09:15.520
above all else. It's just one
of those movies that to me feels very

1096
01:09:15.560 --> 01:09:19.279
halloweeny because of just how the colors, how strange in the colors are the

1097
01:09:19.279 --> 01:09:24.039
color No, because colorfulness is a
Halloween Yes, without a doubt. Yeah,

1098
01:09:24.079 --> 01:09:27.520
no, I get it. So
Suspiria readily available right now on two

1099
01:09:27.560 --> 01:09:29.960
be. You can also get it
from snaps. They have done a four

1100
01:09:30.039 --> 01:09:31.720
game, or you could be like
me and you bought the forty five dollars

1101
01:09:31.920 --> 01:09:35.119
addition to realize you don't like it
that much deal book. Yeah, that's

1102
01:09:35.119 --> 01:09:39.199
what I did. So moving on
to another one of my favorites. As

1103
01:09:39.199 --> 01:09:42.520
we end out the second to last
of the seasonal rewatches, we are going

1104
01:09:42.560 --> 01:09:45.159
with a big, big, personal
favorite, nineteen fifty three Vincent Price classic

1105
01:09:45.199 --> 01:09:47.840
The House of Wax. Oh,
the original, it's not the one where

1106
01:09:47.840 --> 01:09:54.119
it turns out the house is Well. We watched that in three D together

1107
01:09:54.199 --> 01:09:58.159
in my backyard. Backyard. Well, we ate a camp fire roasted apple.

1108
01:09:58.239 --> 01:10:00.800
That was the best. Yeah,
they were good, So I put

1109
01:10:00.960 --> 01:10:02.880
see, I'll tell you a secret
out there, everybody. See, instead

1110
01:10:02.920 --> 01:10:06.680
of just filling the apple with sugar, you fill it with candy corn.

1111
01:10:06.760 --> 01:10:12.239
Candy corn, because candy corn melts
and becomes delicious goo. And if you

1112
01:10:12.279 --> 01:10:15.479
don't like candy Corn, I'm not
sure why you're at the Weekly Spooky.

1113
01:10:15.520 --> 01:10:17.279
I feel like you probably you might
not fit in here, and I'm worried

1114
01:10:17.359 --> 01:10:20.640
for you. But no, House
of Wax is a lot of fun,

1115
01:10:20.840 --> 01:10:28.880
really is. It's it's a big
theatrical experience because it's got it's got all

1116
01:10:28.880 --> 01:10:33.159
of these actors, in particular Vincent
Price just being big and stage player ish,

1117
01:10:33.239 --> 01:10:38.880
very young Carolyn Jones and an obscenely
young Charles Charles Bronson. Yep.

1118
01:10:39.560 --> 01:10:42.600
House of Wax is basically a story
of Vincent Price plays. The sculptor,

1119
01:10:42.720 --> 01:10:46.439
who is with his partner, decides
that the wax museum isn't working for him,

1120
01:10:46.439 --> 01:10:48.920
so he wants to burn it down
and collect the insurance money. He

1121
01:10:49.039 --> 01:10:53.600
wrongfully tries to kill Price and thinks
he does burns down the museum. Some

1122
01:10:53.680 --> 01:10:57.479
years later or some months later,
a figure appears kills the old owner,

1123
01:10:57.560 --> 01:11:00.039
and then suddenly this new wax museum
is opening up and Vincent Price is suddenly

1124
01:11:00.079 --> 01:11:05.279
alive. Then some murders start taking
place. More wax museum if Shenanigan start

1125
01:11:05.279 --> 01:11:10.920
occurring with new exhibits. Yeah,
so it's a lot of fun. I

1126
01:11:10.960 --> 01:11:14.760
actually got to screen this for I
belonged to a film society in my in

1127
01:11:14.800 --> 01:11:17.640
my hometown, and I got to
screen this for them last year round October,

1128
01:11:17.720 --> 01:11:19.920
and everybody had a blast with it. Like a lot of people there

1129
01:11:19.960 --> 01:11:23.760
hadn't seen it, and they were
honestly surprised for being nineteen eighty three.

1130
01:11:23.800 --> 01:11:26.199
How scary it is. No,
it's a scary it's an intense one.

1131
01:11:26.319 --> 01:11:29.039
Yeah. No, House of Wax
is an excellent choice. And it was

1132
01:11:29.079 --> 01:11:31.680
actually the one of the biggest movies
for price that basically brought him into horror

1133
01:11:31.680 --> 01:11:34.640
after that point too. I believe
that so. And it was a three

1134
01:11:34.760 --> 01:11:38.159
D film, Yes it was.
If you're a loser like me who has

1135
01:11:38.199 --> 01:11:43.840
three D made by a director with
one eye entreated tof at one eye famously,

1136
01:11:44.039 --> 01:11:47.319
that is hilarious. So finishing out
season rewatches, We've already mentioned it,

1137
01:11:47.359 --> 01:11:53.520
but it bears repeating again. Fright
night. Oh of course it will

1138
01:11:53.640 --> 01:11:57.039
nineteen eighty five Todd Holland classes I'll
hold for applause. Ah, yes,

1139
01:11:57.560 --> 01:12:00.960
okay, the story of a teenager
who loves his horror movies but then comes

1140
01:12:01.000 --> 01:12:04.960
to find himself in one when he
realizes that a vampire is living right next

1141
01:12:04.960 --> 01:12:08.640
door to him. And this is
a film by Tom Holland. As you

1142
01:12:08.640 --> 01:12:15.560
know, you play Spider Man,
and you know Tom Holland. You may

1143
01:12:15.680 --> 01:12:20.520
know him more so as the man
behind Child's Play. Yes, but this

1144
01:12:20.640 --> 01:12:26.239
was one of his big, big
first films, yeah, in that he

1145
01:12:26.279 --> 01:12:30.239
wrote it and directed it. It
had a very good budget, and it

1146
01:12:30.359 --> 01:12:32.520
is a It's a total classic,
it absolutely is. And you've got a

1147
01:12:32.560 --> 01:12:36.640
great cast of Chris Srandon. You've
got Roddy McDowell who plays the Peter Benson,

1148
01:12:36.720 --> 01:12:41.279
the TV horror ho Amanda Beers from
later known by many people as Marcy

1149
01:12:41.399 --> 01:12:45.119
Darcy on Married with Children, William
Ragsdale, Stephen Jefferies. I mean,

1150
01:12:45.159 --> 01:12:47.840
the name the names in this movie
are enough. But then you've got a

1151
01:12:47.880 --> 01:12:51.720
great soundtrack, You've got a really
really good story that freaking moves. That's

1152
01:12:51.760 --> 01:12:55.560
one thing I always forget about Fright
Night is how quickly the pace of that

1153
01:12:55.720 --> 01:12:59.640
The script is tighter than a nun's
ass. Yes it is. And it's

1154
01:13:00.079 --> 01:13:03.279
one of those absolutely fantastic vampire films, like top ten for me. If

1155
01:13:03.279 --> 01:13:05.840
you're talking about vampire movies, this
is absolutely up there. And if you

1156
01:13:05.880 --> 01:13:09.520
haven't seen Fright Night, Shame on
you shut this off right now and watch

1157
01:13:09.520 --> 01:13:13.399
it. Fright Night is just is
Fright Night is one of the quintessential spooky

1158
01:13:13.479 --> 01:13:15.439
movies. Yeah, it is.
It's just it's spooky. I mean it's

1159
01:13:15.520 --> 01:13:20.960
literally it's a movie that makes you
think about like it makes you remember staying

1160
01:13:21.039 --> 01:13:25.279
up late at night watching scary movies
by watching a character stay up late at

1161
01:13:25.359 --> 01:13:28.720
night watching scary movies. Because one
of the one of the things that's amazing

1162
01:13:28.760 --> 01:13:33.640
about that movie is the vampire killer
hunter that he obtains the surfaces of is

1163
01:13:33.800 --> 01:13:40.119
literally his local horror movie host.
Yes, it is that alone. I

1164
01:13:40.119 --> 01:13:44.399
mean being a kid who grew up
literally obsessed with his local horror movie host

1165
01:13:44.960 --> 01:13:49.720
and then befriending his favorite local movie
horror hosts. Yeah, I love you.

1166
01:13:49.760 --> 01:13:54.840
Not hunt vampires. Well, I
mean my character did hunt vampires.

1167
01:13:54.880 --> 01:13:57.119
Oh that's true. Yeah, that's
true. You did. Yeah, that

1168
01:13:57.239 --> 01:14:00.319
was my my horror host, doctor
Freak. He was a vampire hunt This

1169
01:14:00.359 --> 01:14:02.319
is true. Yeah. So,
closing out the season, rewatches list Fright

1170
01:14:02.399 --> 01:14:05.560
Night nineteen eighty five. You can
find it on AMC Plus. It's readily

1171
01:14:05.600 --> 01:14:10.920
available from Sony, on Blu Ray, Umbrella did a real Umbrella. Yeah,

1172
01:14:10.920 --> 01:14:13.920
I think Umbrella did a really good
release of it. And if you're

1173
01:14:13.920 --> 01:14:15.479
a Fright Night fan and you haven't
seen, you're so cool. Bruster the

1174
01:14:15.479 --> 01:14:19.079
Story of Fright Night. Phenomenal documentary
on the entire making of not just one,

1175
01:14:19.159 --> 01:14:23.399
but also part two. Yeah,
and Fright Night two. It's not

1176
01:14:23.600 --> 01:14:27.920
terrible. I mean it's like it's
it follows the tradition of a five star

1177
01:14:28.159 --> 01:14:30.199
or four and hat whatever, you
know, perfect movie in many ways.

1178
01:14:30.319 --> 01:14:34.279
Yeah, being the sequel being one
star less. Yeah, but that means

1179
01:14:34.279 --> 01:14:38.399
it's still like a three star movie
or a four star movie, depending how

1180
01:14:38.399 --> 01:14:42.000
you look at it. Absolutely so, I definitely yeah, I love it

1181
01:14:42.000 --> 01:14:44.760
all right. So, closing out
seasonal rewatches, we are now moving on

1182
01:14:44.800 --> 01:14:47.319
to underrated Halloween films. These are
horror films that take place around or on

1183
01:14:47.359 --> 01:14:50.600
Halloween. And this is my bread
and butter, and you're gonna hate me

1184
01:14:50.600 --> 01:14:53.439
for the first one, but I
just have to get this out there and

1185
01:14:53.479 --> 01:14:58.479
we don't have to talk about it
long. Nineteen eighty six Underrated Spookies.

1186
01:15:00.600 --> 01:15:02.720
Does that take place on Halloween?
It takes place around Hollow. It does

1187
01:15:02.760 --> 01:15:06.800
not take place September. I remember
because when you first showed me the abomination

1188
01:15:06.880 --> 01:15:12.239
that is Speakies when you first know
you. I remember when you first showed

1189
01:15:12.239 --> 01:15:15.560
it to my favorite Halloween movie,
and and then when I watched together for

1190
01:15:15.560 --> 01:15:17.880
my first time. What are you
talking about? But it wasn't no,

1191
01:15:18.000 --> 01:15:23.359
but you said it was like a
Halloween time movie and it has no Halloween

1192
01:15:23.439 --> 01:15:26.520
in it. It's but it takes
place in a haunted house and a graveyard,

1193
01:15:26.560 --> 01:15:29.800
so we're gonna give it a pass. Spooky's is not a good movie.

1194
01:15:29.880 --> 01:15:31.520
Let's just get that out of the
way. First off. This movie

1195
01:15:31.600 --> 01:15:35.159
is an absolute mess. But because
of that being a mess, you have

1196
01:15:35.199 --> 01:15:39.840
some amazing creature effects. Yeah,
the special effects are very impressive. You

1197
01:15:39.880 --> 01:15:44.520
have a crazy, like halloweeny atmosphere
with a cemetery, a spooky house,

1198
01:15:44.800 --> 01:15:49.039
a vampire lord, guy that's trying
to wife this this young trying to wife

1199
01:15:49.079 --> 01:15:54.680
I like that. You just you
just a wife trying to wife this chick.

1200
01:15:55.000 --> 01:15:58.560
But the synopsis, according to IMDb, is a wicked sorcerer tries to

1201
01:15:58.600 --> 01:16:00.560
sacrifice a group of people inside at
his house with the intention of using their

1202
01:16:00.640 --> 01:16:04.399
vitality to keep his wife alive.
The big thing with Spookies that is the

1203
01:16:04.439 --> 01:16:09.439
infamy with it is it's technically what
is it two or three movies? I

1204
01:16:09.479 --> 01:16:14.199
believe it's two. Yeah, two
movies cut into one because the original production

1205
01:16:14.239 --> 01:16:16.000
of Spookies, if you watch the
documentary on the Vinegerson and Blue ray,

1206
01:16:16.079 --> 01:16:20.760
was extremely troubled and when the producers
got it back, they basically cut it

1207
01:16:20.760 --> 01:16:27.600
to ribbons and completely made an entirely
new The movie was heavily, heavily changed

1208
01:16:27.680 --> 01:16:32.960
and altered and adjusted. But more
important than all of that is the fact

1209
01:16:33.039 --> 01:16:38.520
that it was on the last drive
of a month. Yes, Briggs and

1210
01:16:38.720 --> 01:16:41.840
I thought it was going to play
on the I tried. I tried to

1211
01:16:41.840 --> 01:16:44.680
get it to play on here,
but it doesn't want to. Well that's

1212
01:16:44.680 --> 01:16:48.479
stupid. Well you're you're stupid.
You're stupid. I'm trying to get it

1213
01:16:48.560 --> 01:16:53.359
to play for us real quick.
But Stookies not a good movie. But

1214
01:16:53.439 --> 01:16:55.279
what I love about it, as
I've already said, is it's got a

1215
01:16:55.279 --> 01:16:58.399
perfect Halloween atmosphere to it, and
it's one of those movies where if you

1216
01:16:58.479 --> 01:17:01.239
just need something to like un wind
towards the end of September or to kick

1217
01:17:01.279 --> 01:17:04.840
off October, maybe have a beer
or a smoke. Spookies is that perfect

1218
01:17:04.880 --> 01:17:09.640
drinking movie for the Halloween time because
it has a little bit of everything,

1219
01:17:09.680 --> 01:17:13.800
from the monsters to the slapstick to
a lot of ship that you can't even

1220
01:17:13.840 --> 01:17:16.680
make sense of it. It is
completely out of its mind. And that's

1221
01:17:17.199 --> 01:17:21.039
that's why, that's why I was
trying to get this this up, because

1222
01:17:21.560 --> 01:17:27.640
the the theme song is literally,
hey, you're watching Spookcakes. It's a

1223
01:17:27.800 --> 01:17:35.119
very confused and movie because it really
it really truly is it desperately is so

1224
01:17:35.399 --> 01:17:41.039
we can understand a lot of spookies
job Briggs. We need one of those

1225
01:17:41.119 --> 01:17:44.840
custom rap songs like at the end
of Maniac Cop two. Lastly, but

1226
01:17:44.920 --> 01:17:53.000
I don't know where were John Yo. Yeah, the Spookies wrap. We

1227
01:17:53.159 --> 01:18:01.840
got a god named a bunch of
BOMs love. Yeah, this is all

1228
01:18:02.159 --> 01:18:06.680
This movie makes no cerily no sense. There there are some fun things to

1229
01:18:06.760 --> 01:18:11.680
like, like the farting zombies.
We're not joking the zombies fart, Yes

1230
01:18:11.720 --> 01:18:15.039
they do, Princess, but it
feels like a kid's movie made by like

1231
01:18:15.079 --> 01:18:19.479
a sex offender, Like they just
don't know how there's the quote on the

1232
01:18:19.520 --> 01:18:23.800
back. They just don't know.
They're like, isn't this fine for kids?

1233
01:18:23.800 --> 01:18:30.319
And you're like, no, it's
not here, we go fos movie.

1234
01:18:30.239 --> 01:18:34.720
Hey, we'll watch of spook games. It's a very confused movie.

1235
01:18:36.119 --> 01:18:40.920
So yes, that is. Spooky's
from nineteen eighty six, available right now

1236
01:18:40.960 --> 01:18:45.079
on shutter AMC plus, fandor and
screen Box. Definitely check it out if

1237
01:18:45.119 --> 01:18:47.439
you haven't. It's definitely worth at
least a watch, you know, I'll

1238
01:18:47.520 --> 01:18:50.039
say, I mean it's worth a
stream for sure. Yeah, absolutely,

1239
01:18:51.880 --> 01:18:59.000
I like its Spooky Weekly. Spooky
will be right back. So moving into

1240
01:18:59.159 --> 01:19:01.600
twenty nineteen, we have one that
Hendrick and I discovered just on a whim.

1241
01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:06.520
It's been probably about four years ago. Trick from Yeah that was on

1242
01:19:06.600 --> 01:19:10.840
Prime and I just like threw it
on Yeah. From the director of the

1243
01:19:10.880 --> 01:19:15.560
My Bloody Valentine remake, who was
Patrick Lessier. This movie is a no

1244
01:19:15.560 --> 01:19:18.279
nonsense detective tries to track down a
mass murderer named Trick who was terrorizing a

1245
01:19:18.319 --> 01:19:23.399
small town. That plot, though, doesn't even describe the madness in this

1246
01:19:23.439 --> 01:19:28.239
movie. And we're talking Halloween a
yeah, I mean, costumes, garish

1247
01:19:28.359 --> 01:19:32.960
lighting, slasher tropes out the wazoo. Yeah. Really a lot of fun,

1248
01:19:33.079 --> 01:19:35.800
a lot of fun. The opening
is literally at a Halloween party where

1249
01:19:35.800 --> 01:19:39.920
one of the massacres starts taking place. You get to see Tom Atkins in

1250
01:19:39.920 --> 01:19:42.239
it, who's hosting a screening of
nine of the Living Dead at one point,

1251
01:19:42.239 --> 01:19:45.199
which also turns into a blood bath. It is a wild, wild

1252
01:19:45.279 --> 01:19:49.600
movie that really really deserves more eyes. And it's only an hour and forty

1253
01:19:49.640 --> 01:19:53.600
minutes, so it's just under the
two hour mark, and it has Halloween

1254
01:19:53.640 --> 01:19:57.039
out the ass. Definitely recommended.
You can find it readily available right now

1255
01:19:57.039 --> 01:20:00.720
on the Roku channel as well as
to be definitely check out. It's one

1256
01:20:00.760 --> 01:20:02.560
that definitely needs to have more eyes. That's one that's worth watching. And

1257
01:20:02.960 --> 01:20:08.239
if Dave would just calm down for
a second, definitely check out Trick.

1258
01:20:08.600 --> 01:20:11.640
It's worth watching. You'll have a
great time with it. Absolutely. So

1259
01:20:11.800 --> 01:20:15.000
two thousand twos May is next on
the list. Hendrick and I are kind

1260
01:20:15.000 --> 01:20:18.680
of split on this one. I
think it does have a scene in Halloween,

1261
01:20:18.720 --> 01:20:23.039
doesn't it. Yeah? Oh it
did the final the final twenty minutes.

1262
01:20:23.359 --> 01:20:27.159
Okay, Halloween. Well, you
see, David, I haven't watched

1263
01:20:27.239 --> 01:20:31.840
May two thousand twos May since it
came out on cable. Oh god,

1264
01:20:32.079 --> 01:20:38.640
it was on Showtime all the time, and I would go to conventions and

1265
01:20:38.720 --> 01:20:42.159
Angela Bettis was there because it was
a hit. Yeah, I do not

1266
01:20:42.399 --> 01:20:47.680
hate May. I think that May
is a bit over tight. I would

1267
01:20:47.680 --> 01:20:54.319
say overrated because, as I used
to joke, May's a really cool movie.

1268
01:20:54.359 --> 01:20:57.319
But what's left if you take out
every time the camera pulls away in

1269
01:20:57.359 --> 01:21:00.239
piano music plays, there is that
It was a little The melo drama was

1270
01:21:00.279 --> 01:21:03.640
the only thing I didn't love about
the movie. I loved the characters,

1271
01:21:03.800 --> 01:21:08.079
yeah, I loved the reveal at
the end, like I loved all of

1272
01:21:08.119 --> 01:21:10.279
that. Yeah, But but there
were some moments where I was like,

1273
01:21:10.319 --> 01:21:14.000
I felt like they were like they
were hanging out on a hot topic,

1274
01:21:14.079 --> 01:21:17.479
asking people with the largest spike bracelets
what they thought should be in a film.

1275
01:21:17.880 --> 01:21:24.239
So directed by Lucky McKie, May
is the story of a socially awkward

1276
01:21:24.920 --> 01:21:27.720
woman who is an assistant with the
Lazy Eye. She has an obsession with

1277
01:21:27.720 --> 01:21:30.680
perfection and descends into depravity after developing
a crush on a boy with perfect hands.

1278
01:21:31.039 --> 01:21:36.760
Basically, you have a Frankenstein's story
here where basically basically basically yeah,

1279
01:21:38.319 --> 01:21:42.560
to build a perfect deal. Yeah
yeah, perfect friend or lover or whatever

1280
01:21:42.560 --> 01:21:45.039
you want to call it. And
there is one scene that This is a

1281
01:21:45.039 --> 01:21:48.000
spoiler, but this is one scene
to sell the movie to you. May

1282
01:21:48.039 --> 01:21:51.159
works at a school for the blind, and she has this doll in the

1283
01:21:51.239 --> 01:21:55.960
glass that is May that kind of
talks to her. And at one point

1284
01:21:56.039 --> 01:21:59.079
the she brings the doll to the
school and the kids are wanting to look

1285
01:21:59.079 --> 01:22:00.239
at it and touch it, will
not look at it because they're blind,

1286
01:22:00.479 --> 01:22:04.119
apologies, they want to touch it, So she'd like tells him that she

1287
01:22:04.119 --> 01:22:08.359
can't take him out. Will the
kids swarm her? And the doll hits

1288
01:22:08.399 --> 01:22:12.039
the ground and shatters in this box
and all the kids suddenly goes she's out,

1289
01:22:12.239 --> 01:22:15.359
let's find her, And they drop
onto their hands because they've never heard

1290
01:22:15.399 --> 01:22:18.760
the sound of shatters. Yeah,
so they all apparently just dive into The

1291
01:22:18.920 --> 01:22:23.720
kids just dropped to the ground and
start feeling around into broken glass, screaming

1292
01:22:23.800 --> 01:22:29.600
and crying, blood everywhere. Terrifying
and unsettling. And I'll say, I

1293
01:22:29.640 --> 01:22:33.880
think that if May didn't have Angela
Betties, then it wouldn't be great.

1294
01:22:33.920 --> 01:22:35.880
It would be forgotten, I think. I mean, even though you've got

1295
01:22:35.880 --> 01:22:39.840
a pretty great cast like Jeremy Sisto, no, they're all great, but

1296
01:22:39.840 --> 01:22:44.279
I mean Angela Bettes was It's a
genius portrayal. I can't imagine anybody else

1297
01:22:44.319 --> 01:22:48.000
being May. Absolutely so. I
wish she was in even more. Twelve

1298
01:22:48.039 --> 01:22:51.640
Hour Shift was so good. Twelve
Hour Shift was amazing, and I liked

1299
01:22:51.680 --> 01:22:55.279
her in The Toolbox Murder's remake,
yeah, which is not really a remake.

1300
01:22:55.319 --> 01:22:58.520
They really just took the title.
But in that she plays like a

1301
01:22:58.560 --> 01:23:01.800
really normal person. It was almost
it was very jarring after May. It

1302
01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:06.039
really was. So. May is
available right now on Pluto TV, the

1303
01:23:06.119 --> 01:23:09.720
Roku channel and to be If you
haven't seen it, definitely check it out.

1304
01:23:09.800 --> 01:23:12.920
It's a fun one and a lot
of dark shit in it as well.

1305
01:23:12.920 --> 01:23:15.680
Oh god. Yeah. So moving
on to nineteen ninety nine, we

1306
01:23:15.800 --> 01:23:19.800
have another one of my favorites,
Idle Hands, which is uh, a

1307
01:23:20.640 --> 01:23:25.239
horror comedy that stars Devin saw Was
seth Green. I mean, hell,

1308
01:23:25.279 --> 01:23:27.840
it's got a bunch of people in
it, but basically movies tend to have

1309
01:23:27.880 --> 01:23:30.279
people in that crazy huh. A
teenage slacker's right hand becomes possessed with a

1310
01:23:30.359 --> 01:23:34.479
murderous intent. A Devin Sawwall plays
a teen who is just the typical high

1311
01:23:34.479 --> 01:23:39.479
school stoner who's living at home,
and what happens one day is his parents

1312
01:23:39.479 --> 01:23:43.239
go missing, some other murders start
happening around the town, and he thinks

1313
01:23:43.239 --> 01:23:45.920
that his hand might be the culprit
on it, because his hand now has

1314
01:23:45.960 --> 01:23:48.159
a pentagram on it and it has
a mind of its own. Yes,

1315
01:23:48.920 --> 01:23:53.760
I've always liked idle hands. Now
does that is it on Halloween? Oh?

1316
01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:55.960
Yeah, the Halloween Dance? Yeah, no, it totally is.

1317
01:23:56.079 --> 01:23:59.319
Yeah, that's one featuring the Offspring. That's one that wow. It's like

1318
01:23:59.359 --> 01:24:01.039
they were like, we're like,
listen, we really need to be dated.

1319
01:24:02.319 --> 01:24:06.079
Is there anything else we can do? Let's get the Offspring? But

1320
01:24:06.279 --> 01:24:11.680
no, it's a really fun movie
seth Green is kind of at his top

1321
01:24:11.720 --> 01:24:14.920
of his game. Yea Devin Saw
was at the top of his game.

1322
01:24:15.800 --> 01:24:18.039
And you got a young Jessica Albert
in it before she's really really young.

1323
01:24:18.159 --> 01:24:23.359
Yeah, they're like a fox.
It was all over cable, pay cable.

1324
01:24:23.399 --> 01:24:25.000
Well it was on well when I
was a kid, it was on

1325
01:24:25.000 --> 01:24:28.039
pay cable. Yeah, and you
could watch it again and again and again.

1326
01:24:28.079 --> 01:24:30.079
And I used to get it confused
with another movie that now I'm not

1327
01:24:30.119 --> 01:24:32.199
remembering. Oh, well, maybe
it's on the list. We'll find out.

1328
01:24:32.199 --> 01:24:34.600
When I was younger, there was
like another movie that I kept thinking

1329
01:24:34.720 --> 01:24:39.600
was also Idle Hands. Yeah,
that does sound familiar, and now I

1330
01:24:39.600 --> 01:24:43.880
don't know what it is. Great
job, David So Idol Hands nine currently

1331
01:24:43.920 --> 01:24:46.239
available on Pluto, and to be
it's a lot of fun, a great

1332
01:24:46.279 --> 01:24:50.279
teen scream that is like that peak
end of the nineties and really has a

1333
01:24:50.279 --> 01:24:55.159
lot of great music, great laughs, and some pre solid kills as well.

1334
01:24:55.760 --> 01:24:59.920
There's a thunderstorm rolling in as we're
recording. Oh snap, just her

1335
01:25:00.199 --> 01:25:02.720
it. Moving on to twenty fifteen
one that I got the show Henrick that

1336
01:25:02.760 --> 01:25:08.119
was actually shot in our home state, The fun House Massacre. Really,

1337
01:25:08.199 --> 01:25:11.279
I really liked The fun House Massacre. So Matt and I watched it in

1338
01:25:11.359 --> 01:25:14.880
a watch party I think either last
year or the year before that, and

1339
01:25:14.920 --> 01:25:16.920
he freaking loved it and I kind
of rediscovered it's a it's a great watch

1340
01:25:16.920 --> 01:25:19.840
party movie. But be it's just
a lot of fun. I mean,

1341
01:25:19.960 --> 01:25:24.079
I thought it was fine. I
didn't love it. I'm just being honest.

1342
01:25:24.640 --> 01:25:27.800
I didn't love it. Basically,
The fun House Massacre is six of

1343
01:25:27.800 --> 01:25:30.159
the world's scariest psychopaths escape from the
local asylum and proceed to unleash terror on

1344
01:25:30.239 --> 01:25:34.680
unsuspecting crowd on Halloween fun House.
Them mazes are inspired by their various rains

1345
01:25:34.720 --> 01:25:38.680
of terror, So the maze that
they are, the attraction they're in are

1346
01:25:38.720 --> 01:25:41.560
all inspired by the killers that have
now infiltrated it. Yeah, and it

1347
01:25:41.640 --> 01:25:45.800
was actually shot at which was a
pland of illusion, which is a massive

1348
01:25:45.880 --> 01:25:47.880
haunt out this way? Is it
still? Are they still kicking yet?

1349
01:25:48.119 --> 01:25:53.399
Thought they weren't, which is a
cool element whatever people ask me about.

1350
01:25:53.760 --> 01:25:56.319
Whenever people around Dayton, Ohio are
like, oh man, you know you're

1351
01:25:56.319 --> 01:25:58.039
a filmmaker. Do you know the
people have made that? I always have

1352
01:25:58.039 --> 01:26:01.680
to explain them. None of those
people were local. That production was brought

1353
01:26:01.720 --> 01:26:05.000
in. Yeah, and there's nothing
wrong with that, it's just but like

1354
01:26:05.079 --> 01:26:09.560
so no, I mean, like
very few local people other than like background

1355
01:26:09.680 --> 01:26:14.680
characters and and uh and crew.
But none of the heavy creative leads were

1356
01:26:14.720 --> 01:26:16.960
from Dayton area. But I thought
it was fine. I just I thought

1357
01:26:17.319 --> 01:26:21.079
they wasted Robert England and then I
mean thought he was spoilers he gets off

1358
01:26:21.119 --> 01:26:24.479
in the first scene he's in.
Yeah, I mean I get it,

1359
01:26:24.479 --> 01:26:27.319
he's expensive, But do you have
Clint Howard? You've got the one guy

1360
01:26:27.359 --> 01:26:30.000
from Justified? I can't think of
his name right now, good job well

1361
01:26:30.000 --> 01:26:31.520
on Courtney Gains, isn't it too? But now it's it's a fun one

1362
01:26:31.600 --> 01:26:35.520
and it's readily available right now on
free V as well as Peacock, and

1363
01:26:35.560 --> 01:26:39.239
you can find on show Factory TV
as well. So definitely check out Fun

1364
01:26:39.239 --> 01:26:41.960
House Massacre if you just want a
fun Halloween ron. Yeah, I think

1365
01:26:42.000 --> 01:26:44.560
it'd be a fun one. I
don't really feel the need to rewatch it,

1366
01:26:44.680 --> 01:26:45.680
but I think that if I hadn't
seen it, I would love to

1367
01:26:45.720 --> 01:26:48.680
watch it around Halloween. That's fair. Moving on to two thousand and two

1368
01:26:48.760 --> 01:26:55.119
one that my good buddy next to
me showed me American Here it goes.

1369
01:26:55.520 --> 01:26:59.399
Would you like to take this one? No? No, American Nightmare is

1370
01:26:59.439 --> 01:27:01.640
a special flick to me. So
made in two thousand and one. Two

1371
01:27:01.680 --> 01:27:05.279
thousand and two stars Debbie Rashan,
directed by John Keys. I'm not reading

1372
01:27:05.680 --> 01:27:08.600
I know this stuff. No,
I mean, I'm just saying I know

1373
01:27:08.600 --> 01:27:14.359
this stuff. It was made in
Texas and shot on sixteen super sixteen millimeter

1374
01:27:14.479 --> 01:27:16.600
film, which was a big deal
because it was a very low budget film.

1375
01:27:16.600 --> 01:27:19.359
It was released by Monarch Pictures,
which I do business with them now,

1376
01:27:19.960 --> 01:27:24.279
but back then they were a big
DVD player, and I was a

1377
01:27:24.359 --> 01:27:27.319
huge Debbie Rashan fan when I was
a kid. She was my first Bring

1378
01:27:27.399 --> 01:27:30.279
Stevens, DeBie roshare, first horror
movie crushes. And I had heard that

1379
01:27:30.319 --> 01:27:33.359
this was her best performance, so
I bought the DVD at best Buy and

1380
01:27:33.439 --> 01:27:36.680
it was. It is one of
her best performances ever. It's about a

1381
01:27:36.680 --> 01:27:41.960
group of friends on Halloween night.
This is a Halloween movie. On Halloween

1382
01:27:42.039 --> 01:27:45.880
Night, a group of friends get
together and they're hanging out a coffee shop

1383
01:27:45.920 --> 01:27:53.239
while they're listening to their favorite pirate
radio show called American Nightmare, hosted by

1384
01:27:53.319 --> 01:27:56.800
Kala Ghari, who his name's escaping
me right now, but he is a

1385
01:27:56.920 --> 01:28:02.600
legitimate Austin, Texas radio performer,
and he's got this great, all smiles

1386
01:28:02.720 --> 01:28:08.239
kind of way about him, which
honestly probably affected a lot of my desire

1387
01:28:08.279 --> 01:28:12.119
to podcast because I thought Calighary was
just the coolest. You'ven boughtied Calighary.

1388
01:28:12.159 --> 01:28:14.680
On a couple of weeks, I
had moments, you know, well,

1389
01:28:15.439 --> 01:28:17.760
I know that one thing I do
that Calighary, well, that that radio

1390
01:28:17.840 --> 01:28:20.920
disc jockey does this. He goes, well yeah, and then starts a

1391
01:28:20.960 --> 01:28:26.680
nothing I do that I know Chris
Ryan, Yeah, he's amazing. So

1392
01:28:27.520 --> 01:28:30.159
the cast is a lot of people
who went on to do other indie things

1393
01:28:30.159 --> 01:28:34.880
now nothing huge. But deb Roshan
gets to play a vicious killer where she

1394
01:28:35.039 --> 01:28:41.000
was mostly known for playing like you
know, hot chicks and in topless bimbo

1395
01:28:41.079 --> 01:28:45.279
victim characters. And that's in her
own words, no no hate, but

1396
01:28:45.359 --> 01:28:49.560
this in this film she plays Jane
Topin, a murderous nurse with very very

1397
01:28:49.840 --> 01:28:54.520
very minimal backstory as to why she's
killing this group of friends. But what

1398
01:28:54.600 --> 01:28:59.319
she's not. What she's doing is
she's planned out based on their fears,

1399
01:28:59.800 --> 01:29:02.239
how she's going to kill them,
but in a realistic, not in the

1400
01:29:02.479 --> 01:29:06.760
level of intricacy of say Saw yeah, but more you know, if somebody's

1401
01:29:06.760 --> 01:29:11.479
afraid of being buried alive, she's
gonna make that happen. Somebody's afraid of

1402
01:29:11.840 --> 01:29:15.279
mysticism, she'll poison them with LSD. If somebody's afraid of getting killed in

1403
01:29:15.319 --> 01:29:17.720
the shower, she'll break into your
house when you're at home to watch your

1404
01:29:17.720 --> 01:29:21.840
makeup off. It's a great film
if you love Honestly, this is gonna

1405
01:29:21.880 --> 01:29:25.159
sound weird, but if you love
weekly spooky and what we do here.

1406
01:29:25.479 --> 01:29:29.800
American Nightmare is a really good example
of if I were doing what I do

1407
01:29:29.880 --> 01:29:34.439
now with Weekly Spooky in the nineties, it would be American Nightmare with Caligari.

1408
01:29:34.520 --> 01:29:36.880
It would be that because that's what, you know, what you would

1409
01:29:36.920 --> 01:29:43.399
do. So the common thread,
Caligari is never directly involved in any of

1410
01:29:43.439 --> 01:29:46.640
the mayhem, although the killer calls
in at one point and talks to him.

1411
01:29:46.760 --> 01:29:51.800
He's just kind of there, saying
quips and taking calls and playing fun

1412
01:29:51.840 --> 01:29:58.600
spooky music. And I just love
the vibe of like they're all twenty somethings

1413
01:29:59.000 --> 01:30:01.000
hanging out on Hallow trying to debate
like do I even want to put on

1414
01:30:01.000 --> 01:30:03.159
a costume and go to a party
or do I just want to hang out?

1415
01:30:03.359 --> 01:30:06.159
And it's so believable too, because
there's like the one where it's like

1416
01:30:06.279 --> 01:30:09.479
I think I'm just gonna hang out
here and look at my computer. It's

1417
01:30:09.520 --> 01:30:13.039
like, you mean because our friend
who you've had a crush on for forever

1418
01:30:13.199 --> 01:30:15.000
is going to just hang out here
too, and he's like maybe you know.

1419
01:30:15.000 --> 01:30:19.439
It's like it's so good. It's
so good. American Nightmare not readily

1420
01:30:19.479 --> 01:30:24.680
available anywhere, but that is going
to change very soon. And a blu

1421
01:30:24.800 --> 01:30:29.319
ray is coming out in October,
so check it. Keep your eyes open

1422
01:30:29.319 --> 01:30:31.600
for American Nightmare. I almost guarantee
it'll wind up on two be in places

1423
01:30:31.680 --> 01:30:34.880
like that very soon. But that
is one that is hard to find now

1424
01:30:35.000 --> 01:30:39.239
finding a DVD copy is real to
cheat. Yeah, so but yeah,

1425
01:30:39.239 --> 01:30:43.159
American Nightmare. I absolutely adore that
movie. When I showed it to you,

1426
01:30:43.159 --> 01:30:45.680
I couldn't believe you'd never seen it. I couldn't believe I hadn't either,

1427
01:30:45.720 --> 01:30:47.520
And also I couldn't believe how much
I loved it because it's just it

1428
01:30:47.600 --> 01:30:49.800
was one of those movies where you're
like, I can't believe you haven't seen

1429
01:30:49.840 --> 01:30:51.560
it, and I was like,
well, like, I've never even heard

1430
01:30:51.600 --> 01:30:54.439
of it. So then you put
it on and I was just sucked in

1431
01:30:54.479 --> 01:30:56.920
immediately. Yeah. No, it's
it's a hell of a great film.

1432
01:30:57.000 --> 01:31:00.960
So that is American Nightmare for twenty
two. Nineteen nine is the next one

1433
01:31:00.000 --> 01:31:05.920
with flat Liners. Joe Schumacher's flat
Liners, five medical students experiment with near

1434
01:31:06.000 --> 01:31:11.680
death experiences on Halloween. Yes it
is until the dark consequences of past tragedies

1435
01:31:11.720 --> 01:31:15.720
begin to jeopardize their lives. Now
we are talking star packed with this cast.

1436
01:31:15.800 --> 01:31:18.159
We have Key for Sutherland, Kevin
Bacon, Julia Roberts, William Baldwin,

1437
01:31:18.239 --> 01:31:21.159
Oliver Platt, Kimberly Scott. I
mean, the names go on and

1438
01:31:21.199 --> 01:31:26.600
on with this, and this movie
is not I don't know if I've necessarily

1439
01:31:26.880 --> 01:31:30.840
called this a horror film, but
it's it is absolutely paranormal thriller. Aormal

1440
01:31:30.920 --> 01:31:34.119
thriller. That's another call it a
horror movie. It's a great one because

1441
01:31:34.199 --> 01:31:38.840
you have basically these students that are
experimenting with death and why and doing so

1442
01:31:38.920 --> 01:31:45.720
by basically going into a stasis they're
they're so flatlining is the act of of

1443
01:31:45.359 --> 01:31:51.640
medically dying in a scenario where you
can be resuscitated. So they're dying while

1444
01:31:51.720 --> 01:31:56.239
already hooked up to all of the
stuff to get your heart to start again.

1445
01:31:56.359 --> 01:32:00.840
Yeah, But at first it's just
they do it for a rush,

1446
01:32:00.920 --> 01:32:03.039
yeah, and who can go under
longer? But as they do it longer

1447
01:32:03.079 --> 01:32:08.039
and longer, it becomes obvious that
there are weird side effects to dying and

1448
01:32:08.199 --> 01:32:13.920
coming back. Yes, And the
longer you go, the more you bring

1449
01:32:13.920 --> 01:32:16.359
things back with you. Absolutely,
it's one of those movies that you really

1450
01:32:16.399 --> 01:32:20.279
don't know where it's gonna go because
even though you think that they're gonna go

1451
01:32:20.399 --> 01:32:24.439
deeper and deeper into it as they
do, the things that come with them

1452
01:32:24.479 --> 01:32:28.119
and the trauma that has to be
faced is just it is so good.

1453
01:32:28.600 --> 01:32:31.720
I highly highly recommend nineteen nineties version
over the remake. The remake's fine,

1454
01:32:31.800 --> 01:32:35.159
but the nineties version is so much
better. Oh yeah, the remake was

1455
01:32:35.199 --> 01:32:39.439
okay, well, but the original
nineties version is super good. Yeah.

1456
01:32:39.439 --> 01:32:43.479
You can find Flatliners currently on Pluto. It's also a very cheap blu Ray

1457
01:32:43.520 --> 01:32:45.920
you can get through. I think
Sony and also Arrow just put out a

1458
01:32:45.920 --> 01:32:49.000
four K of it recently too,
So Flatliners highly recommended. Twenty fourteen is

1459
01:32:49.000 --> 01:32:53.520
our next year with the houses October
built. I still haven't seen it.

1460
01:32:53.680 --> 01:32:57.840
This is one that kind of snuck
under my radar. I think I think

1461
01:32:57.840 --> 01:32:59.920
I had rented it one night because
I just saw the preview for it.

1462
01:33:00.239 --> 01:33:02.920
This is basically the story of five
friends that decide that they want to find

1463
01:33:02.960 --> 01:33:08.000
what they call the extreme haunts.
So they are huge lovers of going to

1464
01:33:08.079 --> 01:33:11.359
haunt attractions and houses and everything,
and they decide that they want to find

1465
01:33:11.399 --> 01:33:15.479
an extreme haunt, like in the
same style of the infamous MCAMI manner where

1466
01:33:15.479 --> 01:33:19.119
like they can touch you and they
can do stuff to you. And so

1467
01:33:19.199 --> 01:33:23.279
they are stocked by a group of
mysterious and disturbed individuals while on a road

1468
01:33:23.319 --> 01:33:26.359
trip looking for the ultimate haunted house
attraction. This is done again as a

1469
01:33:26.359 --> 01:33:29.520
mockumentary, but it's also done as
as a film style of it. So

1470
01:33:29.600 --> 01:33:32.720
you are following this kid founds thank
you a good third word, and you

1471
01:33:32.760 --> 01:33:36.199
go to all these different haunt attractions
and as the story progresses, they get

1472
01:33:36.199 --> 01:33:40.680
closer and closer to what is called
the Blue Skeleton, which is this infamous

1473
01:33:40.680 --> 01:33:44.279
haunt attraction, but they can't find
any information on it, except for they

1474
01:33:44.279 --> 01:33:45.800
have to go to certain locations at
certain times to get the clues to find

1475
01:33:45.800 --> 01:33:50.159
the next location. Things start going
crazy. They run into performers at these

1476
01:33:50.159 --> 01:33:53.640
houses that don't take kindly to some
of the things that they start doing,

1477
01:33:53.720 --> 01:33:58.239
and the movie takes a very very
scary turn towards the last thirty minutes.

1478
01:33:58.800 --> 01:34:01.359
That is just fantastic. Well,
one of the I want to watch it.

1479
01:34:01.399 --> 01:34:03.920
I have not gotten around to it. I should watch it. It's

1480
01:34:03.920 --> 01:34:06.039
definitely something I would like. Well, and one of the things too,

1481
01:34:06.119 --> 01:34:10.720
is it originally was a documentary It
actually was a real documentary which they included

1482
01:34:10.760 --> 01:34:15.239
on the Blu ray of the release
from R R R LJ, and what

1483
01:34:15.279 --> 01:34:17.920
they did with the documentary has a
lot in coincidence with the feature film,

1484
01:34:17.960 --> 01:34:20.560
except they definitely took a route with
it at the end. But I recommend

1485
01:34:20.680 --> 01:34:24.840
both movies, except do not watch
Houses October Bilt too. It ruins the

1486
01:34:24.880 --> 01:34:28.119
first one in my opinion. Oh
got Salty Dave over here. I was

1487
01:34:28.159 --> 01:34:30.800
so excited for that movie. The
Houses that October Bilt makes me think of

1488
01:34:30.800 --> 01:34:35.199
the fact that there's always been this
urban legend that no matter how great a

1489
01:34:35.239 --> 01:34:41.079
haunt is, yeah, there's this
one that it's like it's in an abandoned

1490
01:34:41.159 --> 01:34:45.880
hospital and every floor is scarier.
It's scary, and if you reach the

1491
01:34:45.920 --> 01:34:50.000
top floor, they'll give you a
thousand dollars. But nobody's ever made it,

1492
01:34:50.680 --> 01:34:55.399
and that stuff like nowadays, you
know, you kind of roll your

1493
01:34:55.399 --> 01:34:58.319
eyes because you're like, oh boy, that thing again. But when you

1494
01:34:58.560 --> 01:35:00.960
when you were a kid, didn't
you believe it was like there was like

1495
01:35:00.000 --> 01:35:02.199
that one haunt that's like, oh
yeah, it's like dude, bro,

1496
01:35:02.319 --> 01:35:06.640
no, it's six acres of cornfields. None of those existed, no,

1497
01:35:08.560 --> 01:35:11.359
But how cool would it be if
they did? Yeah? And The House

1498
01:35:11.439 --> 01:35:15.000
Is October Bill is a great one
because it takes place the entire Halloween season,

1499
01:35:15.000 --> 01:35:16.239
of course, because they're going through
the haunts and then the ending actually

1500
01:35:16.279 --> 01:35:20.199
happens on Halloween. One of the
last things that I can absolutely say about

1501
01:35:20.239 --> 01:35:24.439
it is when you get to the
last ten or fifteen minutes of the movie,

1502
01:35:24.560 --> 01:35:28.159
everybody has their own camera and you
get to see what everybody is going

1503
01:35:28.159 --> 01:35:31.680
through in the Blue Skeleton, and
it's oh terrifying. Okay, So if

1504
01:35:31.680 --> 01:35:34.720
you're looking for a good scary one
that also has some haunted houses in it,

1505
01:35:34.720 --> 01:35:38.680
definitely check out The House Is October
Built. It is available currently on

1506
01:35:38.800 --> 01:35:42.079
two B and you can also get
a cheap blu ray from r LJA I

1507
01:35:42.079 --> 01:35:45.840
believe right now. Nice. Moving
into twenty sixteen, Yeah, really The

1508
01:35:45.159 --> 01:35:48.560
Barn The Barn. I love The
Barn. The Barn is one of those

1509
01:35:48.600 --> 01:35:54.920
movies that was crowdfunded in was it
around like twenty fourteen or so? I

1510
01:35:54.960 --> 01:35:58.199
think so, Yeah, it was
crowdfunded. It's the story of a nineteen

1511
01:35:58.239 --> 01:36:00.319
eighty nine Halloween. Best friends Sam
and Jah are trying to enjoy what's left

1512
01:36:00.359 --> 01:36:04.039
of their Devil's Night before graduating high
school. But trouble arises when two pals

1513
01:36:04.039 --> 01:36:06.720
and a group of friends take a
detour on their way to a rock concert,

1514
01:36:06.760 --> 01:36:10.840
finding an old, abandoned farm and
awakening the evil inside. Now it's

1515
01:36:10.920 --> 01:36:13.720
up to Samon Josh to find a
way to protect their friends defeat the creatures

1516
01:36:13.760 --> 01:36:15.880
that lurk within the Barn. It's
a fun one. It's a lot of

1517
01:36:15.920 --> 01:36:20.239
fun. It's kind of I'm not
a huge fan of the eighties throwback stuff

1518
01:36:21.239 --> 01:36:25.399
because I just feel like it's it's
an excuse to be lazy. But The

1519
01:36:25.439 --> 01:36:28.560
Barn is not lazy. No,
it's not. There's a lot of like

1520
01:36:28.640 --> 01:36:32.399
major cgi effects and stuff, which
a lot of people hate on because it

1521
01:36:32.439 --> 01:36:35.359
does kind of take you out of
that eighties vibe. But I thought the

1522
01:36:35.439 --> 01:36:42.399
characters the kills were really really fun. Yeah, and Justin Sieman, I've

1523
01:36:42.439 --> 01:36:45.279
known him for years and years.
He's always been a super nice person to

1524
01:36:45.319 --> 01:36:46.239
me. In fact, the first
time I saw The Barn was at a

1525
01:36:46.279 --> 01:36:51.119
double feature screening with Babysitter Massacre,
my movie that Halloween screening, because both

1526
01:36:51.119 --> 01:36:56.520
of those movies take place on Halloween. So I love The Barn and I

1527
01:36:56.560 --> 01:37:00.399
think that if you get a chance, you should definitely check out. And

1528
01:37:00.399 --> 01:37:03.079
it also features Lena Quickly in Ari
Layman and as well Lena Quickly of course

1529
01:37:03.119 --> 01:37:08.600
famous Horrock on r Laman was the
first Jason and the Barn is available right

1530
01:37:08.600 --> 01:37:12.039
now On to Be has a fantastic
soundtrack, some really good gore effects as

1531
01:37:12.079 --> 01:37:15.199
well, and generally, just like
Hendrickson, a very fun movie, like

1532
01:37:15.239 --> 01:37:18.039
you just get kind of into a
fighting the monsters spirit kind of thing and

1533
01:37:18.079 --> 01:37:20.640
it's a lot of fun. Yeah, it's it's a blast. So moving

1534
01:37:20.720 --> 01:37:29.159
on to sixteen, don't hate me
Terrifier. I put Terrifier. You have

1535
01:37:29.319 --> 01:37:31.439
made me think I had to hit
the boobo. Yeah. I put Terrifier

1536
01:37:31.560 --> 01:37:36.439
on here because I personally I was
a fan of All hallow Zev, which

1537
01:37:36.479 --> 01:37:40.920
was the first I was. I
was thinking about doing All hellow Zev,

1538
01:37:41.000 --> 01:37:44.000
but I kind of thought Terrifier was
the one because I like All hallow z

1539
01:37:44.000 --> 01:37:47.600
Ev a lot. But Terrifier has
kind of become the thing, and it's

1540
01:37:47.760 --> 01:37:51.000
it's kind of hard not to watch
this on Halloween. For me, I'm

1541
01:37:51.039 --> 01:37:54.359
not a big fan of Terrifier too. I will say that right here on

1542
01:37:54.399 --> 01:37:57.000
the air. Hendrick and I saw
it in theaters. I enjoyed it,

1543
01:37:57.039 --> 01:37:59.560
but I don't see any reason why
that movie had to be nearly two and

1544
01:37:59.560 --> 01:38:03.239
a half hour is long. Terrifier, though, was the big reinvention of

1545
01:38:03.319 --> 01:38:08.800
Art the Clown, who starred in
All Hollow's Even twenty thirteen. Yeah,

1546
01:38:08.840 --> 01:38:10.960
and I had it. I had
it on here, but I decided to

1547
01:38:11.000 --> 01:38:15.119
go with Terrifier just because of the
popularity with Art. Art the Clown is

1548
01:38:15.279 --> 01:38:20.880
a character that is just the most
brutal, silent, malevolent and vicious killer

1549
01:38:21.560 --> 01:38:24.720
that I can that I can think
of in like the last five years,

1550
01:38:24.760 --> 01:38:27.439
to be honest, Yeah, no, I mean I would agree, I

1551
01:38:28.000 --> 01:38:30.800
mean mean spirited doesn't even take doesn't
even begin with Art the Clown, No

1552
01:38:31.000 --> 01:38:34.319
especially and on Halloween night, tera
Hys finds herself as an obsession of a

1553
01:38:34.319 --> 01:38:38.039
statistic murder known as Art the Clown. Basically, the story is, she

1554
01:38:38.079 --> 01:38:42.119
gets stalked by him, goes into
the warehouse where he's at, and spoilers.

1555
01:38:42.159 --> 01:38:44.840
She ends up dying the first twenty
minutes in, so you think your

1556
01:38:44.880 --> 01:38:47.319
main character is this church this chick, but then it turns out that her

1557
01:38:47.359 --> 01:38:51.720
sister comes into the warehouse, and
then that's when the insanity kicks up.

1558
01:38:53.760 --> 01:38:57.439
Terrifier has one of the most infamous
murder scenes where a woman is literally sought

1559
01:38:57.479 --> 01:39:00.520
in half and you just have to
get to see all of this. Running

1560
01:39:00.560 --> 01:39:03.039
at eighty five minutes, it's not
a bad flick. It takes entirely all

1561
01:39:03.079 --> 01:39:05.880
place on Halloween. But if you
are not a gore fan, if you

1562
01:39:05.920 --> 01:39:10.600
are not a fan of just mean
spiritedness, this one you might want to

1563
01:39:10.640 --> 01:39:14.840
skip. Yeah, no, I
can see that. So Terrifier twenty sixteen

1564
01:39:14.880 --> 01:39:17.119
available right now on freevie. You
can also find it on Peacock and Plex

1565
01:39:17.159 --> 01:39:20.079
as well as as well as Primate
apparently too. Yeah, it's it's It's

1566
01:39:20.079 --> 01:39:25.039
pretty much everywhere you want to be. It's like Visa. Yeah. The

1567
01:39:25.159 --> 01:39:30.199
only thing scarier than that is not
being subscribed weekly. Spooky will be right

1568
01:39:30.239 --> 01:39:33.439
back. So moving on to one
of our other favorites, Henrick, we're

1569
01:39:33.439 --> 01:39:38.800
gonna go with two thousand and four
Satan's Little Helper. I was worried that

1570
01:39:38.880 --> 01:39:42.479
you were going to forget. I'm
gone. I don't know you always you

1571
01:39:42.560 --> 01:39:45.279
always managed to disappoint me a new
way. So Satan's Little Helper, directed

1572
01:39:45.279 --> 01:39:49.000
by the wonderful Jeff Lieberman, who
actually just met at Wasteland a couple or

1573
01:39:49.159 --> 01:39:53.560
last year. This is the story
of a little boy who was with his

1574
01:39:53.640 --> 01:39:56.319
mom and his sister on Halloween.
He wants to go trick or treating and

1575
01:39:56.319 --> 01:39:59.600
he's waiting for his father, and
he's playing this video game called Satan's Little

1576
01:39:59.600 --> 01:40:01.680
Helper, which he is dressed as
the Satan character in the game, or

1577
01:40:01.720 --> 01:40:05.079
no, he's dress the Helper in
the game, and he comes across the

1578
01:40:05.079 --> 01:40:09.159
guy who was dressed exactly a Satan
in the game, and he thinks that

1579
01:40:09.199 --> 01:40:13.119
they're playing a game on Halloween and
starts going around with the guy dressing the

1580
01:40:13.119 --> 01:40:16.199
Satan outfit and actually helping him murder
people. It's a it's a twisted it's

1581
01:40:16.239 --> 01:40:21.079
a twisted flick, and I very
much love this movie. It's got an

1582
01:40:21.119 --> 01:40:26.960
odd sense to it. It's it
takes place on an island community, like

1583
01:40:27.000 --> 01:40:30.920
East Coast Island community, so not
like you know, Hawaii or something.

1584
01:40:31.479 --> 01:40:36.920
And in this little island community,
some psychopathic killer is about to go nuts

1585
01:40:38.359 --> 01:40:43.399
and this little kid befriends him unintentionally
thinking it's all pretend. Yeah, And

1586
01:40:43.560 --> 01:40:48.079
from there there's a lot of really
fascinating stuff. I can't recommend Satan's a

1587
01:40:48.119 --> 01:40:53.079
Little Helper enough. I'm so glad
it has a blu ray from sa Jeff

1588
01:40:53.119 --> 01:40:56.319
Lieberman, famous for the movie Squirm, the Killer Worm movie, which I've

1589
01:40:56.319 --> 01:41:00.079
always loved. He's a damn good
storyteller and they tell great stories in this.

1590
01:41:00.199 --> 01:41:02.800
Satan's Little Helper has a lot of
dark humor. It's got a lot

1591
01:41:02.840 --> 01:41:08.680
of immense an immense amount of dark
humor, and also goes places that you

1592
01:41:08.720 --> 01:41:11.560
do not expect it to and never
could have predicted to. No. No,

1593
01:41:11.640 --> 01:41:14.199
if you want to guess how Satan's
a Little Helper will end, then

1594
01:41:14.239 --> 01:41:17.760
you are guaranteeing yourself confusion and disappointment. And we get to go through Halloween

1595
01:41:17.880 --> 01:41:19.880
night, we see trick or treaters, we get to go to a Halloween

1596
01:41:19.920 --> 01:41:25.159
party. It's all Halloween, all
Halloween, all day long. Satan's Little

1597
01:41:25.159 --> 01:41:28.600
Helper available on screen box right now, also can be found, as Hendrick

1598
01:41:28.640 --> 01:41:30.520
said, on a beautiful blue ray
that Snaps just put out. Cannot recommend

1599
01:41:30.560 --> 01:41:32.720
it enough. You can also rent
it on Voodoo. That was another one

1600
01:41:32.760 --> 01:41:34.560
that was kind of hard to get
for a while. It really was,

1601
01:41:34.640 --> 01:41:38.960
yeah, you don't get that DVD. And then there was that infamous that

1602
01:41:39.079 --> 01:41:43.359
was like Walmart. That was the
TV cut. Yeah, we're nerds,

1603
01:41:44.000 --> 01:41:46.119
all right. Moving on to twenty
nineteen, we have Haunt, another one

1604
01:41:46.159 --> 01:41:50.000
that Hendrick and I really did not
expect to like as much as we did.

1605
01:41:50.399 --> 01:41:54.720
Yeah, that was just was that
on Shutter that we watched the We

1606
01:41:54.800 --> 01:41:57.760
rented that on like I think we
rent it on Voodoo. We might have

1607
01:41:57.800 --> 01:42:00.079
rented around Was that around the same
time as Trick. I think we rented

1608
01:42:00.079 --> 01:42:02.000
them around the same time. Might
have been a year later, so,

1609
01:42:02.039 --> 01:42:05.039
but yeah, it might be close
to it. Haunt is going back to

1610
01:42:05.039 --> 01:42:09.079
that whole idea of extreme haunts.
This these are a group of friends that

1611
01:42:09.159 --> 01:42:12.359
decide to go for an extreme haunted
house that promises to feed on their darkest

1612
01:42:12.359 --> 01:42:15.479
fears. The night turns deadly as
they come to horrifying realization that nightmares are

1613
01:42:15.520 --> 01:42:21.159
real. This one is an intense
ride that really goes again places you don't

1614
01:42:21.199 --> 01:42:24.960
expect it to, because once you
get into the Haunt you think you kind

1615
01:42:24.960 --> 01:42:27.840
of have it figured out. You
don't know. Shit. Yeah, it's

1616
01:42:27.880 --> 01:42:32.359
a complicated storyline and what what these
people are doing, why they're doing it

1617
01:42:33.039 --> 01:42:36.399
wolf, Yeah, and you don't
figure out how they are Yeah. No,

1618
01:42:36.520 --> 01:42:40.359
I mean, every every answer is
going to make it is not going

1619
01:42:40.399 --> 01:42:43.680
to make you feel better. No, it's going to feel worse. Directed

1620
01:42:43.680 --> 01:42:45.279
by A. Scott Beck and Brian
Woods, who also wrote it. This

1621
01:42:45.319 --> 01:42:49.359
is one that kind of snuck out
around twenty nineteen and then Joe Bob and

1622
01:42:49.359 --> 01:42:55.760
they're the team behind Sonic the Hedge
The Hedgehog writing team and Joe Bob showed

1623
01:42:55.800 --> 01:42:59.479
it on the Halloween Houghton Nanny some
years ago and it's it's just an absolute

1624
01:42:59.560 --> 01:43:01.880
blast. It takes place entirely on
Halloween except four. I think the ending

1625
01:43:01.920 --> 01:43:04.880
is a little bit of a jump, but you will have a great time

1626
01:43:04.920 --> 01:43:08.600
with this. It is packed with
a lot of thrills, a lot of

1627
01:43:08.640 --> 01:43:13.000
chills, and a lot of scares
and satisfying. Satisfying as yeah, it

1628
01:43:12.560 --> 01:43:15.000
does. It does not pull punches. It does not leave you wanting well,

1629
01:43:15.039 --> 01:43:17.119
it leaves you wanting more, but
not in the annoying way. No.

1630
01:43:17.239 --> 01:43:19.640
And if you do want more,
there's supposedly a sequel on its way.

1631
01:43:19.840 --> 01:43:23.920
Oh yeah, well, and it's
on Hulu and Prime. Hulu and

1632
01:43:23.960 --> 01:43:26.520
Prime is where you can find it. Nice all right, Moving into two

1633
01:43:26.520 --> 01:43:30.159
thousand one that I have really really
come back to love and the last couple

1634
01:43:30.159 --> 01:43:33.479
of years. Ginger snaps, Oh
that's a classic. Ginger Staffs is flawless.

1635
01:43:33.720 --> 01:43:38.920
It really is. Two thousand,
starring Emily Perkins and Catherine Isabella.

1636
01:43:39.039 --> 01:43:42.720
This is the story of two sisters
that are death obsessed. They're outcasting their

1637
01:43:42.760 --> 01:43:45.560
suburban neighborhood and they must deald the
tragic consequences when one of them is bitten

1638
01:43:45.600 --> 01:43:51.399
by a deadly werewolf. This movie
another one I watched on Showtime when I

1639
01:43:51.479 --> 01:43:55.279
was a kid, when it first
came out. Yeah, it's a Canadian

1640
01:43:55.319 --> 01:43:59.479
movie about werewolves, and it's about
these two sisters and the relationship with the

1641
01:43:59.479 --> 01:44:04.000
relationship between the sisters is incredibly complex. Ye and good, yes, because

1642
01:44:04.840 --> 01:44:08.960
kind of. I mean, I
think that it's very obvious that the lecanthropy

1643
01:44:09.119 --> 01:44:14.039
is is a metaphor for menstruation and
for becoming a woman, etcetera, etcetera,

1644
01:44:14.399 --> 01:44:16.479
because what does it do. It
comes once a month, and it

1645
01:44:16.520 --> 01:44:20.399
makes hair grow, and it makes
you hungry for boys, of course,

1646
01:44:20.479 --> 01:44:26.039
hungry for boys, not necessarily in
the way you would hope, and and

1647
01:44:26.399 --> 01:44:30.600
it just hits every element right.
The casting is perfect, the directing is

1648
01:44:30.640 --> 01:44:35.640
perfect, and I actually love Ginger
Snaps two even more. It's a great

1649
01:44:35.680 --> 01:44:40.960
one, and I personally appreciate Ginger
Snaps Back. It's fine, It's fine.

1650
01:44:41.039 --> 01:44:42.960
Yeah, yeah, I think it
was. I think I would.

1651
01:44:43.000 --> 01:44:45.800
I would. I'd have to rewatch
them back to back, but I think

1652
01:44:45.800 --> 01:44:48.359
I might like two more than one, which is such a huge feat that

1653
01:44:48.359 --> 01:44:51.439
that's probably why I'm so harsh hung
Ginger Snaps Back because the third one isn't

1654
01:44:51.439 --> 01:44:56.640
even really a sequel. It's the
two sisters playing different characters in colonial French

1655
01:44:56.680 --> 01:45:00.640
Canada. Yeah, I know,
don't like, you're all really not gonna

1656
01:45:00.640 --> 01:45:03.000
watch, uh well, because it's
a Canadian production, so they it's not

1657
01:45:03.039 --> 01:45:08.600
colonial America. It's colonial French Canada. Yeah. The only difference is that

1658
01:45:08.760 --> 01:45:15.680
somehow amazingly they're meaner to the natives. So Ginger Stepps History currently available on

1659
01:45:15.960 --> 01:45:19.119
AMC Plus, Crackle Free, v, Peacock Plex. It's a little bit

1660
01:45:19.119 --> 01:45:21.760
of everywhere right now, So make
sure you check that one. Ginger Steffs

1661
01:45:21.800 --> 01:45:25.279
is one if you've never seen it, but put it on for your Halloween

1662
01:45:25.359 --> 01:45:28.319
viewing. You will enjoy the hell
out of it. One of our second,

1663
01:45:28.319 --> 01:45:30.119
our second to last, and he
underrated Halloween category. We have the

1664
01:45:30.159 --> 01:45:33.760
Guest from twenty fourteen. Oh yeah, that does have that big Halloween scenes.

1665
01:45:33.840 --> 01:45:38.279
It does. It's a great one. This is one that was Oh

1666
01:45:38.359 --> 01:45:41.159
god, what's the director? I
can't he did what's the big thing he

1667
01:45:41.199 --> 01:45:45.359
did? Oh yeah, yeah,
yeah, wind Guard, he did Blair

1668
01:45:45.359 --> 01:45:50.319
Witch, he did Godzilla versus Congs, Godzilla versus cong Yeah. I was

1669
01:45:50.359 --> 01:45:54.720
thinking for her, but yes,
oh I'm sorry, just was naming one

1670
01:45:54.720 --> 01:45:59.039
of the most successful time I know. But the guest is a soldier introduces

1671
01:45:59.079 --> 01:46:00.680
himself to the Peterson Fly, claiming
to be the friend of their son who

1672
01:46:00.720 --> 01:46:03.279
died in action. After the young
man is welcoming to the home, a

1673
01:46:03.319 --> 01:46:06.880
series of accidental death seemed to be
connected to his presence. This is a

1674
01:46:06.920 --> 01:46:11.359
horror film, but not in the
way you expected. Is the best way

1675
01:46:11.359 --> 01:46:13.680
that I Yeah, I would,
It's more it's a it's definitely a little

1676
01:46:13.680 --> 01:46:16.640
bit more of a thriller style,
but it turns horror at the end.

1677
01:46:16.760 --> 01:46:20.399
Yeah, And it has a lot
of like very cozy horror things like like

1678
01:46:20.439 --> 01:46:27.000
that very eighties score. It's a
very slow burn, but I found it

1679
01:46:27.159 --> 01:46:30.159
very creepy. It's one I keep
I always be honest on here. That's

1680
01:46:30.199 --> 01:46:32.600
what I keep saying I'm going to
revisit and I don't get aroun to it.

1681
01:46:32.720 --> 01:46:35.640
I know, I feel bad.
And it's got Dan Stevens as the

1682
01:46:35.680 --> 01:46:40.640
main as the guest in it.
And Dan Stevens plays psychotic so well in

1683
01:46:40.680 --> 01:46:45.079
this movie that you really are afraid
of him by the second act. Yeah,

1684
01:46:45.119 --> 01:46:47.680
I know, he's terrifying, terrifying. So the guest is available right

1685
01:46:47.680 --> 01:46:51.199
now to get on Prime. You
could rent it on There is also rentable

1686
01:46:51.199 --> 01:46:54.079
on Voodoo or if you want to
get the cheap blue right. I think

1687
01:46:54.079 --> 01:46:57.520
it's like ten bucks right now from
I think lions Gate, either lions Gate

1688
01:46:57.640 --> 01:47:00.800
or yeah that I don't know.
I'm not all right rinding it. Rounding

1689
01:47:00.800 --> 01:47:04.560
out our underrated Halloween. We are
gonna go to twenty fifteen with Tales of

1690
01:47:04.600 --> 01:47:11.079
Halloween. Another great anthology flick,
that one. This was one that kind

1691
01:47:11.079 --> 01:47:13.880
of took me a second watch to
really appreciate it. I didn't. I

1692
01:47:14.159 --> 01:47:16.039
thought it was fine, and then
three or four years later I watched it

1693
01:47:16.039 --> 01:47:19.640
and loved it. Yeah, So
I mean, it's it's an anthology.

1694
01:47:19.680 --> 01:47:23.239
It's got a bunch of different directors
working on it, some of them with

1695
01:47:23.359 --> 01:47:26.119
names you might recognize. Like Mike
Mendez I believe did one, and we

1696
01:47:26.159 --> 01:47:30.840
were just talking about his film earlier. It's it's so much fun. It's

1697
01:47:30.880 --> 01:47:34.600
about this little town on Halloween night
and all these stories that vaguely interconnect.

1698
01:47:34.800 --> 01:47:39.279
Yeah, it's got a low budget, but that means that they do wildly

1699
01:47:39.439 --> 01:47:45.479
ridiculous things like having John Landis play
a father of a child, John Barry

1700
01:47:45.520 --> 01:47:50.640
Bosswick, Adam Green, I can't
think of the dude's name from compliance.

1701
01:47:53.159 --> 01:47:55.600
Dana golds in it, Dana Goldsen, I mean, everybody's in it,

1702
01:47:55.680 --> 01:47:59.119
freaking This is one that's a lot
of fun. You've got ten different stories

1703
01:47:59.159 --> 01:48:01.119
that are all vastly different, but
yeah, interconnected in this small town.

1704
01:48:01.479 --> 01:48:05.279
You've got comedy ones, you've got
really terrifying ones, really dark ones.

1705
01:48:06.359 --> 01:48:10.159
It's a perfect one. Hendrick Screen
did a couple of years ago in the

1706
01:48:10.159 --> 01:48:12.920
backyard, and this is one that
if you want to get your friends together

1707
01:48:13.000 --> 01:48:15.840
for a great time, Tales of
Halloween. Yeah, highly right. We

1708
01:48:15.880 --> 01:48:18.479
loved it, even though we were
shivering under our blankets because we were like,

1709
01:48:18.520 --> 01:48:21.960
okay, no more movies after this. It's two cold. So you've

1710
01:48:21.960 --> 01:48:26.760
got a little bit of everything.
Aliens, Axe Murders, ghouls. You've

1711
01:48:26.760 --> 01:48:30.119
got one of my personal verage,
which are two guys battling over who's haunted

1712
01:48:30.159 --> 01:48:33.279
house is better. Oh, that
one's amazing. That's that's was not one

1713
01:48:33.279 --> 01:48:39.039
of the ones with James. Yeah, yeah, James Duval. Yeah,

1714
01:48:39.079 --> 01:48:43.840
it's phenomenal, so fun. So
Tales of Halloween twenty fifteen available right now

1715
01:48:43.880 --> 01:48:46.279
on Freevie. You can also find
it on Plex, Prime Video, Roku

1716
01:48:46.319 --> 01:48:50.079
and two be So if you need
to get some Halloween into your Eve,

1717
01:48:50.159 --> 01:48:53.880
that this is the one to choose. Tales of Halloween is a good I

1718
01:48:54.000 --> 01:48:59.039
just finished handy out candy movie or
I'm getting ready to hand out candy movie.

1719
01:48:59.359 --> 01:49:00.720
All right, So that finishes out
of underrad Halloween. We are into

1720
01:49:00.760 --> 01:49:04.520
the final stretch. These are the
Halloween muss in my opinion. This is

1721
01:49:04.560 --> 01:49:09.039
the you've passed out candy, you're
sitting on the couch. There's a whole

1722
01:49:09.159 --> 01:49:14.000
other lines is the last one,
but the last category. Yeah, but

1723
01:49:14.000 --> 01:49:16.000
these are not all Halloween based.
These are just Halloween muss for me.

1724
01:49:16.199 --> 01:49:19.399
Okay, let's all right, let's
go. We're gonna get the We're gonna

1725
01:49:19.439 --> 01:49:23.319
get the big one out of the
way. First Halloween nineteen seventy eight through

1726
01:49:23.560 --> 01:49:27.439
twenty twenty two. This Halloween the
Halloween series. Yes, I mean they

1727
01:49:27.479 --> 01:49:30.960
are. They're drenched in Halloween.
Halloween is Halloween series. You can't go

1728
01:49:31.000 --> 01:49:33.119
wrong with that. There's nothing more
I can say about them. They're all

1729
01:49:33.119 --> 01:49:36.199
going to be available on Peacock I
think soon too as well. They're they're

1730
01:49:36.239 --> 01:49:39.800
around. If you don't know how
to find a Halloween movie, yeah,

1731
01:49:39.880 --> 01:49:42.520
then what's wrong with you? I
would go on more about them, but

1732
01:49:42.600 --> 01:49:45.600
what hasn't been said about them?
If you want to go with two of

1733
01:49:45.680 --> 01:49:47.119
the best, in my opinion,
besides Halloween, which is my all time

1734
01:49:47.159 --> 01:49:51.479
favorite, I think Halloween three and
four are unbeatable. Okay for Halloween Night

1735
01:49:51.720 --> 01:49:56.000
fair? All right? Moving on, We're gonna go into two thousand and

1736
01:49:56.000 --> 01:49:59.439
three with House of a Thousand Corpses. I know, yes, I know

1737
01:49:59.520 --> 01:50:04.319
you are. It'll not look on
huge fan. House Thousand Corpses is Rob's

1738
01:50:04.399 --> 01:50:08.199
first film ever. It was done
in twenty in two thousand and three,

1739
01:50:08.199 --> 01:50:11.640
originally done under Universal, but some
shit happened and ended up going with Mine's

1740
01:50:11.680 --> 01:50:14.760
Gate. I first saw this movie
when I was in my teens, and

1741
01:50:14.800 --> 01:50:17.319
I absolutely fell for it. I
preferred Deuvil's rejects over House, but House

1742
01:50:18.119 --> 01:50:23.720
takes place on Halloween. The opening
takes place on Halloween. You've got a

1743
01:50:23.920 --> 01:50:30.520
completely mccabb setting with a psycho family
that just loves murder. I first saw

1744
01:50:30.560 --> 01:50:32.600
it in my teens too, after
waiting three years, four years for it,

1745
01:50:33.000 --> 01:50:38.920
and like it so Katherine Spaulding otis
Driftwood. I mean, you've got

1746
01:50:38.920 --> 01:50:41.800
a whole cast of characters, You've
got a whole bunch of carnage, and

1747
01:50:41.920 --> 01:50:45.439
overall, just a pretty fun movie
that's right under the ninety minute mark at

1748
01:50:45.479 --> 01:50:47.760
an hour in twenty nine minutes plus
eight. Very young Rain Wilson in it

1749
01:50:47.800 --> 01:50:51.199
as well. Yeah he's a baby. So House thousand Corpses. If you

1750
01:50:51.239 --> 01:50:54.520
haven't seen it, definitely check that
out. It's a great one for Halloween

1751
01:50:54.640 --> 01:50:58.319
night. Moving into nineteen eighty eight, let's go with an absolute classic,

1752
01:50:58.359 --> 01:51:03.279
Pumpkinhead. Pumpkin It has pumpkin in
the title, so how can we not

1753
01:51:03.520 --> 01:51:09.239
Obviously I love Pumpkinhead. I mean
incredible monster. Stan Winston directs and creates

1754
01:51:09.239 --> 01:51:13.239
the monster. Lance Henrickson brings all
of the humanity to the role you could

1755
01:51:13.239 --> 01:51:16.439
ever hope for. Ye, it's
a film about it's a simple film about

1756
01:51:16.479 --> 01:51:24.479
Country Fried revenge and the old proverb
he who seeks revenge should dig two grades.

1757
01:51:24.720 --> 01:51:30.319
The best thing about the Pumpkinhead monster
is that when you summon it,

1758
01:51:30.319 --> 01:51:33.680
it is a part of you.
I love that concept for the idea of

1759
01:51:34.000 --> 01:51:41.399
revenge being awful. So when Pumpkinhead
kills your enemies, you see them die.

1760
01:51:41.560 --> 01:51:45.159
Yes, and if they somehow were
to kill Pumpkinhead, you would die.

1761
01:51:45.720 --> 01:51:49.640
That very unlikely more likely in every
Pumpkinhead sequel there's the realization, shit,

1762
01:51:49.760 --> 01:51:53.640
I have to die myself if I
want Pumpkinhead to stop, because that's

1763
01:51:53.680 --> 01:51:57.079
the big thing that the old Hag
says. Every movie is like, once

1764
01:51:57.159 --> 01:52:01.920
this starts, it can't be stopped. It love it great. One and

1765
01:52:02.439 --> 01:52:08.319
one thing I absolutely love about Pumpkinhead
is the setting for it is complete isolation.

1766
01:52:08.439 --> 01:52:11.560
Like once those guys end up accidentally
killing Lance Hendricks's son, there is

1767
01:52:12.000 --> 01:52:15.840
no way I mean that happens in
the first ten minutes, but there is

1768
01:52:15.920 --> 01:52:18.079
nowhere for them to go and they
all have to face Pumpkinheads. So it

1769
01:52:18.199 --> 01:52:21.319
is one that you cannot miss out. If you haven't seen Pumpkinhead, make

1770
01:52:21.359 --> 01:52:25.279
sure you check it out. It
is currently available on Showtime. You can

1771
01:52:25.319 --> 01:52:29.159
also find it on Prime and Voodoo
as well. And I think I love

1772
01:52:29.239 --> 01:52:31.319
part two as well. Part two
is great once you get past Part two.

1773
01:52:31.319 --> 01:52:36.359
Stop. Oh, I'm sorry,
do you like three and four?

1774
01:52:36.479 --> 01:52:40.119
I didn't say that, That's what
I thought, all right. Moving into

1775
01:52:40.199 --> 01:52:44.840
nineteen eighty six, we also have
Tricker Treat, the classic story of what

1776
01:52:44.880 --> 01:52:47.760
happens when you love your idols too
much and get the power to basically finish

1777
01:52:47.800 --> 01:52:50.239
off your enemies because of it.
Well, it's just say the heavy Metal

1778
01:52:50.319 --> 01:52:55.399
Halloween Heavy Metal Halloween movie, he
is correct, starring Gene Simmons and Ozzy

1779
01:52:55.479 --> 01:53:00.720
Osbourne. You also have a great
performance by Mark Price along with Tony Fields,

1780
01:53:00.760 --> 01:53:02.880
who plays Sammy Kerr, who is
the rock demon In this a bully

1781
01:53:02.880 --> 01:53:05.920
teenage boy is devastated at the death
of his heavy metal idol, Sandy Kerr.

1782
01:53:06.039 --> 01:53:09.880
Halloween night approaches, he discovers that
he may be the only one who

1783
01:53:09.880 --> 01:53:13.800
can stop Sammy from making who can
stop Sammy from making a satanic comeback from

1784
01:53:13.800 --> 01:53:15.960
beyond the grave. This is also
the classic story of why you don't play

1785
01:53:15.960 --> 01:53:20.640
your records backwards? Yeah? Correct? The trick or Treat is one of

1786
01:53:20.640 --> 01:53:25.359
those movies that a lot of people
know about, but in regards to availability,

1787
01:53:25.439 --> 01:53:28.159
it's been tough to come by because
the only way you can get it

1788
01:53:28.239 --> 01:53:31.079
is a very shitty DVD that's been
out for the last ten fifteen years.

1789
01:53:31.159 --> 01:53:33.520
Yeah, it was. It's always
been really hard to come by, and

1790
01:53:33.800 --> 01:53:36.920
Snaps is currently working on a four
K of but we cannot wait for it.

1791
01:53:36.920 --> 01:53:40.399
If you're looking for some heavy metal
horror trick or treat, nineteen eighty

1792
01:53:40.439 --> 01:53:43.680
six is the way to go.
Not available streaming anywhere at this point,

1793
01:53:43.680 --> 01:53:45.239
but you can still get that DVD
if you want to track down a copy

1794
01:53:45.319 --> 01:53:48.640
of it. Going back into the
old school, we're gonna go to nineteen

1795
01:53:48.680 --> 01:53:53.720
fifty nine with House on Haunted Hill, the Vincent Price classic. This is

1796
01:53:53.840 --> 01:53:58.319
a haunted house story. A millionaire
offers ten thousand dollars for five people who

1797
01:53:58.359 --> 01:54:00.039
agree to be locked in a large
spook you rent in a house overnight with

1798
01:54:00.079 --> 01:54:03.279
him and his wife. There are
malicious intent between him and his wife that

1799
01:54:03.319 --> 01:54:06.720
you find out in the opening,
basically that they hate each other and they're

1800
01:54:06.720 --> 01:54:11.880
trying to possibly off each other.
Perhaps. House on Haunted Hill is a

1801
01:54:11.880 --> 01:54:15.479
great one done by the late Great
William Castle. This is a movie that

1802
01:54:15.680 --> 01:54:18.680
is another one of those I think
is the public domain. Oh yeah,

1803
01:54:18.720 --> 01:54:20.920
yeah, I was gonna say,
because it's another one that they also find

1804
01:54:20.960 --> 01:54:24.119
on TV and horror films a lot. Yeah, if you're gonna watch House

1805
01:54:24.119 --> 01:54:27.760
on Haunted Hill, find the version
Elvira hosts. Yes, that's the best

1806
01:54:27.800 --> 01:54:30.680
way to watch House on Haunted Hill. It's a great one vincent price at

1807
01:54:30.680 --> 01:54:33.000
the top of his game. You've
got some great William Castle, you know,

1808
01:54:33.079 --> 01:54:38.000
those the things that he is known
for are all over this movie and

1809
01:54:38.119 --> 01:54:40.600
above all else. It's only seventy
five minutes. You're in and out.

1810
01:54:41.000 --> 01:54:43.560
So if you get done passing candy, you want a short thrill. House

1811
01:54:43.600 --> 01:54:45.760
on Haunted Hill in nineteen thirty nine, available on free v Pluto TV.

1812
01:54:45.920 --> 01:54:48.720
It's a little bit of everywhere because
public domain. That's a favorite one of

1813
01:54:48.760 --> 01:54:51.800
mine to watch late at night or
catch it on TV late at night.

1814
01:54:53.000 --> 01:54:56.560
So going into TV films, we
are gonna go with one that Hendrick and

1815
01:54:56.560 --> 01:55:00.239
I recently just revisited because of our
good buddy Joe Bob Dark Night of the

1816
01:55:00.279 --> 01:55:04.800
Scarecrow. Back when, back when, made for TV horror films were literal

1817
01:55:04.880 --> 01:55:09.279
stuff of nightmares. When you have
stuff like Trilogy of Terror and Dark Knight

1818
01:55:09.359 --> 01:55:13.079
of the Scarecrow and are you in
the house alone to just mortify you.

1819
01:55:13.319 --> 01:55:16.640
Absolutely, it's all about revenge.
There's this little southern town and there's this

1820
01:55:16.720 --> 01:55:23.159
guy everybody calls Bubba. He's mentally
challenged grown man played by Larry Drake and

1821
01:55:23.199 --> 01:55:30.560
doctor Giggles and Durant Durant, Robert
G. Durant, and I there's nothing

1822
01:55:30.600 --> 01:55:33.800
to not love about this movie.
Yeah, basically they kill him wrongfully.

1823
01:55:34.439 --> 01:55:38.119
Yeah, they assume that he hurt
a little girl, so they kill him

1824
01:55:38.159 --> 01:55:45.000
and then they start dying. But
it's done in such a simplistic and haunting

1825
01:55:45.079 --> 01:55:47.720
way that you don't know why they're
dying. Yeah, you don't know if

1826
01:55:47.800 --> 01:55:53.520
maybe there it's their guilt because they
because some of them die in like farming

1827
01:55:53.560 --> 01:55:57.520
accidents, which could have been caused
just from like not paying attention to being

1828
01:55:57.600 --> 01:56:01.399
drunk or whatever. But the Scarecrow
keeps popping up all over town. Yes

1829
01:56:01.479 --> 01:56:05.760
he does. And the little girl
who loved Bubba doesn't believe Bubba's dead,

1830
01:56:05.800 --> 01:56:10.520
but because she talks to him,
yes she does. It's a chilling,

1831
01:56:11.039 --> 01:56:15.439
creepy film. It is one that
if you have not seen. This is

1832
01:56:15.479 --> 01:56:18.720
an absolute recommend from both of us
for Halloween night or just October in general.

1833
01:56:19.479 --> 01:56:23.359
Like Hendrick said, this is the
time when TV movies were terrifying and

1834
01:56:23.439 --> 01:56:27.119
Dark Knight of the Scarecrow is a
great, great recommendation. Yeah, no,

1835
01:56:28.119 --> 01:56:31.359
such a great film. Currently available
on shutter amc Plus as well as

1836
01:56:31.359 --> 01:56:34.760
Peacocks, screen box and Twobi has
it. You can find it basically everywhere

1837
01:56:34.840 --> 01:56:36.800
right now, and if you like
it, make sure you get the blue

1838
01:56:36.840 --> 01:56:40.520
ray. There are some great bonus
features in a commentary on there as well.

1839
01:56:40.600 --> 01:56:43.319
Yeah, the bonus stuff's really good
on that. Nineteen eighty eight.

1840
01:56:43.560 --> 01:56:45.720
Nine of the Demons is next up. I was wondering if that was gonna

1841
01:56:45.720 --> 01:56:49.079
make the list. Of course it
had to. So Night the Demons nineteen

1842
01:56:49.119 --> 01:56:53.760
eighty eight. You have a ten
teenagers party and an abandoned funeral parlor on

1843
01:56:53.800 --> 01:56:57.920
Halloween night when an evil force awakens. Demonic spirits keep them from leaving and

1844
01:56:57.960 --> 01:57:02.479
turning their gathering into a living It's
a possession slasher film, lots of characters,

1845
01:57:02.720 --> 01:57:08.840
laugh out loud dialogue, everything you
could want from an eighties like like

1846
01:57:08.960 --> 01:57:12.840
kind of a silly eighties movie,
and one of the best movie openings of

1847
01:57:12.880 --> 01:57:16.199
all time, especially for the Halloween
time. Oh because the animation. Yeah,

1848
01:57:16.840 --> 01:57:20.960
it's easy to forget about that,
because that movie is so dense with

1849
01:57:21.159 --> 01:57:24.960
stuff, it's easy to forget that
there's this really great opening. Yeah,

1850
01:57:25.039 --> 01:57:27.960
it's a fantastic flick. A lot
of gore, a lot of laughs,

1851
01:57:28.039 --> 01:57:31.319
and a very very shocking ending.
Depends on how you look at it.

1852
01:57:31.359 --> 01:57:34.760
I suppose that's fair. So Nine
of the Demons currently available on freevie.

1853
01:57:35.800 --> 01:57:40.039
You can also find it on AMC
Plus right now and Shutter NIGHTE of the

1854
01:57:40.039 --> 01:57:44.319
Demons absolutely cannot reck mend enough.
Yeah, I know, that's an absolute

1855
01:57:44.319 --> 01:57:46.039
favorite. And the sequels I love
too, which are finally coming out on

1856
01:57:46.079 --> 01:57:49.560
blue rays. They are, and
I think they're four K four K for

1857
01:57:49.560 --> 01:57:51.800
the first one, the blue ray
for the two and three, yeah,

1858
01:57:51.800 --> 01:57:56.680
because three had never been on blue
ray at all ever, and and barely

1859
01:57:56.720 --> 01:57:59.960
been on DVD in America. Yeah. So moving on to nineteen ninety nine,

1860
01:58:00.159 --> 01:58:03.800
we have Stir of Echoes. This
is an absolute favorite of mine that

1861
01:58:03.840 --> 01:58:08.479
I kind of I need to revisit
Sturve Eccos. It's I'm so fucking good.

1862
01:58:08.720 --> 01:58:10.760
I haven't seen this. You've never
seen Stir of Eco. Okay,

1863
01:58:10.760 --> 01:58:13.800
well that's getting out of the list
too. So after being hypnotized by his

1864
01:58:13.840 --> 01:58:15.840
sister in law, a man begins
seeing haunted visions of a girl's ghost and

1865
01:58:15.880 --> 01:58:18.560
a mystery begins to unfold around him
in the house that he's living in.

1866
01:58:18.600 --> 01:58:21.239
The man, of course, played
by Kevin Bacon. That's when I was

1867
01:58:21.279 --> 01:58:24.720
looking at the little thing on your
screen. Yeah, I was like,

1868
01:58:24.760 --> 01:58:27.600
wait, because I remember some horror
movies he was in. Yeah, but

1869
01:58:27.640 --> 01:58:31.279
the part with him being hypnotized and
stuff just does not I it screams.

1870
01:58:31.840 --> 01:58:34.640
My mom rented it on tape,
I guarantee it. I would almost like

1871
01:58:35.039 --> 01:58:39.479
it, but I don't recall sitting
down and watching it. This is a

1872
01:58:39.479 --> 01:58:43.399
phenomenal ghost story. This kind of
got shrouded by the release of sixth Cents.

1873
01:58:43.479 --> 01:58:45.560
That's why. That's why not a
lot of I mean, people know

1874
01:58:45.600 --> 01:58:48.079
about Stir of Echos, but it's
not one that I hear enough about.

1875
01:58:48.159 --> 01:58:54.840
Stir of Echos is an absolutely terrific
ghost story that drives on the madness of

1876
01:58:54.880 --> 01:58:57.920
when you're trying to find something out, you're being haunted by these spirits.

1877
01:58:57.960 --> 01:59:00.600
He's got a family around him,
and just the secrets that get uncovered in

1878
01:59:00.640 --> 01:59:06.239
this movie are so shattering that the
film itself is just unstoppable. It's based

1879
01:59:06.279 --> 01:59:11.640
on a novel by Richard Matheson as
well, and Stir of Echos is scary.

1880
01:59:11.840 --> 01:59:14.119
It's got some laughs to it,
but most of all, it's just

1881
01:59:14.159 --> 01:59:17.399
that has a very satisfying ending.
And hear me out, David, I'll

1882
01:59:17.479 --> 01:59:23.119
bias cheese Steaks if you come over
and bring Stir of Echos and The Cell.

1883
01:59:23.359 --> 01:59:28.000
Okay, two films that I've that
I've never seen all of Okay,

1884
01:59:28.000 --> 01:59:30.119
but I really want to. Okay, I am down for that. Stir

1885
01:59:30.159 --> 01:59:33.800
of Echos is highly highly recommended.
If you have not seen it, Perfect

1886
01:59:33.800 --> 01:59:38.000
Halloween Watch, Perfect October Watch.
You can find it right now on free

1887
01:59:38.079 --> 01:59:42.560
v plex, Pluto, the c
w Roku to be It's it's readily available.

1888
01:59:42.680 --> 01:59:45.600
To make sure you check that one
out, and honestly, it's not

1889
01:59:45.840 --> 01:59:47.760
one that isn't too bad for the
family. There's some coarse language, but

1890
01:59:47.840 --> 01:59:51.399
overall it's mainly just really scary,
and it's a Stir of Echos, not

1891
01:59:51.479 --> 01:59:58.600
a shaken or a blender. Stir
of Echos nineteen ninety nine. Make sure

1892
01:59:58.640 --> 02:00:04.119
you check that one out. Are
you afraid, Good weekly Spooky. We'll

1893
02:00:04.159 --> 02:00:09.920
be right back. Going into nineteen
seventy three, we have the one,

1894
02:00:10.039 --> 02:00:13.640
the only, the immortal classic,
The Exorcist. Oh okay, I mean

1895
02:00:13.720 --> 02:00:15.600
it's a great film. It's a
great film. And also, with our

1896
02:00:15.680 --> 02:00:23.720
unfortunate passing recently of Black Star's named
William Freaking Billy Freakin, the Extorcist is

1897
02:00:24.239 --> 02:00:28.680
the quintessential Halloween movie. It's still
scary to this day. When a young

1898
02:00:28.680 --> 02:00:30.399
girl's possessed by a serious entity,
your mother seeks help of the two priests

1899
02:00:30.399 --> 02:00:33.319
to save her daughter. If you
don't know about The Extorcist, I don't

1900
02:00:33.359 --> 02:00:35.920
know how the movie shook the world
when it came out in seventy three.

1901
02:00:36.119 --> 02:00:41.760
It is terrifying, it's provoking.
It's got a lot of imagery that you

1902
02:00:41.880 --> 02:00:44.640
really just don't see today, to
be honest, Yeah, I mean it

1903
02:00:44.720 --> 02:00:46.880
was a it was a trailblazer of
its time. It's one of those movies

1904
02:00:47.039 --> 02:00:50.399
kind of like watching The Extorcist.
It's kind of like watching Apocalypse Now.

1905
02:00:50.560 --> 02:00:53.439
Yeah, you watch it and you
go, I've seen this before, and

1906
02:00:53.479 --> 02:00:55.560
then you look at the date and
go, oh, this was the first

1907
02:00:55.560 --> 02:00:58.520
time. Yeah, all right,
Well, because I remember the first time

1908
02:00:58.520 --> 02:01:01.640
I watched Apocalypse Now, it was
probably like twenty two thousand nine Yen and

1909
02:01:01.840 --> 02:01:04.239
I remember watching going like, oh, I mean I've seen this four and

1910
02:01:04.239 --> 02:01:06.199
then I was like, wait,
when was this? Oh, this is

1911
02:01:06.199 --> 02:01:10.640
the first time I'm seeing like pop
music put over war footage and stuff.

1912
02:01:10.640 --> 02:01:14.279
It's crazy. Yeah, So,
I mean the Exorcist, there's what what

1913
02:01:14.279 --> 02:01:17.800
what more do you want? It's
a film so strong that it can make

1914
02:01:17.880 --> 02:01:24.119
my atheist ass feel like a Catholic
for two hours straight. Absolutely, it

1915
02:01:24.119 --> 02:01:30.439
makes it makes Catholicism very engrossing.
The Vatican should have embraced The Exorcist.

1916
02:01:30.640 --> 02:01:34.520
Yeah, it should have been like
the Pope should have just been like,

1917
02:01:34.720 --> 02:01:39.760
did you watch that? Yeah,
better show I better see you at mass.

1918
02:01:40.039 --> 02:01:45.760
Hope to see you, Hope to
see you. The Exorcist as far

1919
02:01:45.800 --> 02:01:48.279
as I could recommend for the version
to watch, because there's several different versions

1920
02:01:48.279 --> 02:01:51.680
of it. If you can find
the unrated director's cut that has the infamous

1921
02:01:51.720 --> 02:01:56.520
shot of Linda Lair walking up the
steps backward, that is pure nightmare fuel.

1922
02:01:56.880 --> 02:01:58.920
Yeah, it just adds to the
movie. So if you can find

1923
02:01:58.960 --> 02:02:00.560
the unrated director's cut as one to
watch. If you can't, just check

1924
02:02:00.600 --> 02:02:06.279
it out. It's available right now
on AMC plus HBO Max. It's also

1925
02:02:06.359 --> 02:02:10.119
going back into theaters for October one
of those again too, so keep an

1926
02:02:10.119 --> 02:02:12.840
eye out for it if you want
to see on the big screen William Freakin's

1927
02:02:12.840 --> 02:02:16.119
masterpiece, The Exorcist nineteen seventy three. That is a perfect Halloween October movie.

1928
02:02:16.199 --> 02:02:19.760
I cannot say anything more while not
being on Halloween, but it's still

1929
02:02:19.800 --> 02:02:24.439
good. Yes, no, so
going into the hot topic Moon as Henrik

1930
02:02:24.520 --> 02:02:28.600
calls it, Oh boy, here
we Go nineteen ninety four is The Crow.

1931
02:02:29.439 --> 02:02:32.239
A man brutally murderer comes back to
life as an undead avenger of him

1932
02:02:32.319 --> 02:02:38.880
and his and his fiance's murder.
This movie is the quintessential revenge tale.

1933
02:02:38.920 --> 02:02:43.079
You've got a guy that is killed
by these robbers and his wife also bears

1934
02:02:43.079 --> 02:02:45.600
witness to it. They kill her
as well. He gets resurrected a year

1935
02:02:45.640 --> 02:02:49.000
later by a crow to basically set
the wrong things right right around Halloween time,

1936
02:02:49.079 --> 02:02:55.079
specifically on Devil's Night. This is
a movie that is an action movie.

1937
02:02:55.119 --> 02:02:58.239
It's got horror elements to it.
It always gets called a horror film

1938
02:02:58.319 --> 02:03:00.520
or he gets lopped into it,
and I really don't see it is one,

1939
02:03:00.720 --> 02:03:02.479
but the fact of the matter is
is you have an undead guy coming

1940
02:03:02.479 --> 02:03:08.720
back to get vengeance. The Crow
is a movie that is full of action,

1941
02:03:08.960 --> 02:03:13.039
full of suspense, an amazing and
final performance by the late great Brandon

1942
02:03:13.119 --> 02:03:16.039
Lee, who was Bruce Lee's son. This movie is very near and dear

1943
02:03:16.079 --> 02:03:19.119
to my heart and also features a
great performance by Ernie Hudson, as well

1944
02:03:19.119 --> 02:03:23.439
as Michael Wincott, who recently was
in Nope and honestly kind of stole the

1945
02:03:23.439 --> 02:03:28.760
movie for me too. Yeah,
I would agree he stole Nope and he

1946
02:03:28.760 --> 02:03:30.359
he just took Nope for about four
minutes. Yeah, I was like,

1947
02:03:30.399 --> 02:03:35.119
as my movie movie for a minute. But The Crow is a perfect Halloween

1948
02:03:35.119 --> 02:03:40.079
flick. It's got Halloween atmosphere around
it. There's pumpkins, there's fires,

1949
02:03:40.159 --> 02:03:44.600
there's people in makeup, there's kids
trick or treating at one point. It's

1950
02:03:44.640 --> 02:03:45.920
one of those that's not necessarily,
like I said, a horror film,

1951
02:03:45.920 --> 02:03:49.039
but if you're looking for a good, spooky ish thriller, this is not

1952
02:03:49.119 --> 02:03:51.479
a bad one to choose. So
nineteen ninety four is The Crow. I'll

1953
02:03:51.560 --> 02:03:54.640
let you have it. I don't
think it's a horror movie, but not

1954
02:03:54.760 --> 02:03:58.079
But it has some Halloween good stuff
to it. Available currently on Showtime and

1955
02:03:58.079 --> 02:04:00.640
Showtime Anytime. You can also get
a very cheap blue ray available right now

1956
02:04:00.640 --> 02:04:03.279
and rented on pretty much any of
your streaming services. It might be on

1957
02:04:03.279 --> 02:04:10.000
Paramount plus two since they're merging Showtime
with Moving on to nineteen ninety nine.

1958
02:04:10.079 --> 02:04:12.800
A big personal favorite of mine that
actually got the show Hendrick for the first

1959
02:04:12.800 --> 02:04:15.520
time a couple of years ago.
Tim Burton's Sleepy Hollow with Johnny Depp.

1960
02:04:15.560 --> 02:04:19.479
I barely remember anything about it.
That's fair. I feel bad. No,

1961
02:04:19.640 --> 02:04:23.800
I was like, we did,
We totally did. It's a fine

1962
02:04:23.880 --> 02:04:27.479
movie. I love Sleepy Hollow.
Sleepy Hollow has all the quintessential Halloween feels

1963
02:04:27.479 --> 02:04:30.119
to it. It's right around Halloween
time. You've got this of the retelling

1964
02:04:30.199 --> 02:04:31.600
of the of the Headless Horseman,
done in the way that only Tim Burton

1965
02:04:31.640 --> 02:04:34.479
can do. So. The beheadings
are so with Helen on bottom Carter and

1966
02:04:34.560 --> 02:04:39.439
Johnny Depp and minimal color Christine and
Ritchie into the Hollow bottom Carter but okay,

1967
02:04:39.479 --> 02:04:42.920
oh okay, well excuse me all
the hell, and Christopher walking as

1968
02:04:42.920 --> 02:04:45.560
the Headless Horseman. He was,
yeah, he's he's he is the He

1969
02:04:45.720 --> 02:04:48.680
is the headless Horseman in the in
the flashbacks, and then you see him

1970
02:04:48.680 --> 02:04:50.720
at the end of Oh you know, I do remember him being in the

1971
02:04:50.720 --> 02:04:55.520
flashback. Sleepy Hollow is full of
thrills, full of gore, full of

1972
02:04:55.560 --> 02:04:59.399
that Tim Burtney stuff we love,
with the creepy Danny Elfman scores and very

1973
02:04:59.520 --> 02:05:03.079
bleak imagery. It is a very
creepy movie, but a very fun movie

1974
02:05:03.159 --> 02:05:06.600
and a perfect retelling of the Headless
Horseman Sleepy Hollow tale. I just I

1975
02:05:06.680 --> 02:05:12.039
cannot love this movie enough, and
I really really recommend it for Halloween time.

1976
02:05:12.319 --> 02:05:17.079
Plus it's also got some great performances
by Michael Goff, Jeffrey Jeffrey Jones,

1977
02:05:17.560 --> 02:05:20.800
and Richard Griffiths. It's a great
one and if you haven't seen Sleepy

1978
02:05:20.840 --> 02:05:24.439
Hollow, perfect one that you can
put on as soon as you get done

1979
02:05:24.479 --> 02:05:27.039
past Now Candy, or if you
just want to unwind after the Halloween.

1980
02:05:27.119 --> 02:05:30.800
It definitely has the feeling of like
an old scary story. Yeah, but

1981
02:05:30.880 --> 02:05:33.800
it's a movie. I do love
it. I think it's I think it's

1982
02:05:33.840 --> 02:05:36.840
just been overhyped so hard. I
get that that I sometimes go like,

1983
02:05:38.159 --> 02:05:41.680
but I love I do love Sleepy
and I love the story. Yeah,

1984
02:05:41.720 --> 02:05:44.960
you know, I just love the
story. So moving on in nineteen sixty

1985
02:05:45.000 --> 02:05:47.399
eight, the one, the only, the quintessential classic Night of the Living

1986
02:05:47.479 --> 02:05:54.479
Day, which is not at all
the one or the only, well,

1987
02:05:54.520 --> 02:06:00.079
okay, fair you need the often
copied and literally and figuratively in public domain,

1988
02:06:00.239 --> 02:06:04.680
these so many sequels. Not a
Living Dead featured in Halloween two on

1989
02:06:04.680 --> 02:06:10.159
the TV Night Have a Living Dead. It's always if you're in a movie.

1990
02:06:10.399 --> 02:06:12.920
That's how you know, David,
if you're ever worry that you're in

1991
02:06:12.960 --> 02:06:15.640
a movie where you're about to die, that's if you just turn your TV

1992
02:06:15.720 --> 02:06:17.119
on and Night Living deads on and
you just go, that's what I'll watch

1993
02:06:17.199 --> 02:06:21.920
that we're gonna die. But I
don't terrify tell the story. Super low

1994
02:06:21.920 --> 02:06:27.479
budget movie made in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. It's such a great film. It's

1995
02:06:27.560 --> 02:06:31.439
scary. The the Criterion Blu ray
four K that was put out looks amazing.

1996
02:06:31.880 --> 02:06:36.880
It's like watching the movie for the
first time. I I love watching

1997
02:06:36.960 --> 02:06:40.720
Night a Living Dead late at night, especially around Halloween. There's no bad

1998
02:06:40.720 --> 02:06:43.159
time Not a Living Dead. But
if you don't watch it around Halloween time,

1999
02:06:43.159 --> 02:06:46.000
what are you even doing? Well? You see. It became synonymous

2000
02:06:46.000 --> 02:06:50.000
with Halloween because when it was believed
to be in the public domain, television

2001
02:06:50.039 --> 02:06:54.840
stations could play it whenever they wanted
for free, So you better believe Halloween

2002
02:06:54.920 --> 02:06:57.880
Night. They're like, show not
a Living Dead again, Like why not?

2003
02:06:58.079 --> 02:07:00.399
Like it's free and people love it, you know, And that's that's

2004
02:07:00.479 --> 02:07:04.479
kind of the secret of it.
Like I sometimes when I when I'm not

2005
02:07:04.520 --> 02:07:09.319
feeling so good because uh, you
know, there's been a lot of like

2006
02:07:09.479 --> 02:07:14.079
challenges of stuff with the sick dog
and everything. Sometimes if I need to

2007
02:07:14.079 --> 02:07:16.600
feel cozy, I'll look up like
my favorite, like regional horror host,

2008
02:07:16.720 --> 02:07:19.760
like the Ghoul is my favorite.
I love the Ghoul. I love how,

2009
02:07:19.880 --> 02:07:25.239
you know, just how he's like
a zanga zangy. Hey they're folk,

2010
02:07:25.600 --> 02:07:30.680
you know, Like I love him. But the amount of times that

2011
02:07:30.680 --> 02:07:33.000
that he hosts Night a Living Dead
that they have segments of it because they're

2012
02:07:33.039 --> 02:07:38.399
like, tonight we're showing the immortal
classic Night of the Living Dead, which

2013
02:07:38.399 --> 02:07:42.039
we don't have to even pay three
sets for him, which is why they're

2014
02:07:42.119 --> 02:07:45.880
showing it. That makes sense.
Turn blue it stay sick, turn blue,

2015
02:07:45.920 --> 02:07:48.640
scratch glass, climb walls, and
most important of all, don't get

2016
02:07:48.680 --> 02:07:51.640
caught. Oh my god, I
love the I literally fell asleep listening to

2017
02:07:51.720 --> 02:07:57.399
him last night. But no,
there's there's like this constant thing with Night

2018
02:07:57.439 --> 02:08:01.760
a Living Dead. You know what, Dave, you should come over around

2019
02:08:01.800 --> 02:08:07.159
Halloween. I have a VHS rip
oh of Night of the Living Dead on

2020
02:08:07.239 --> 02:08:11.359
Detroit Television, hosted by This is
from the nineties, Yeah, hosted by

2021
02:08:11.399 --> 02:08:16.279
the Ghoul and Count Scary. Oh
yeah, fighting each other. Oh so

2022
02:08:16.319 --> 02:08:20.239
it's the Goal versus Count Scary Way
show and it was played on Halloween Nightmen

2023
02:08:20.680 --> 02:08:26.840
it is. It is so much
fun because Count Scary does like silly accents

2024
02:08:26.000 --> 02:08:28.640
and has like voice so many guys, and then the Ghoul's just like,

2025
02:08:30.119 --> 02:08:33.439
I'm stuck in a bathroom, like
it's so good, and then Count Scary

2026
02:08:33.479 --> 02:08:37.199
will be like, you know,
well, here's a funny joke I heard,

2027
02:08:37.239 --> 02:08:39.079
and then the Ghoul's just like,
I'm gonna blow this up with a

2028
02:08:39.079 --> 02:08:43.800
firecracker. It's so good. That
Living Dead available everywhere. You can literally

2029
02:08:43.800 --> 02:08:48.560
find it on every streaming service right
now. It is one that you just

2030
02:08:48.680 --> 02:08:50.159
have to throw on at the Halloween
time or any time for that matter,

2031
02:08:50.199 --> 02:08:54.560
but Halloween especially. Moving on to
two thousand and seven. We have one

2032
02:08:54.800 --> 02:08:58.479
favorite of Hen and Eyes again,
Murder Party. I love Murder Party.

2033
02:08:58.720 --> 02:09:01.399
Rachel and I are going to do
a cutting deep into horror on Murder Party.

2034
02:09:01.680 --> 02:09:05.119
Yes, Murder Party, a randomimitation
to a Halloween party leads a man

2035
02:09:05.159 --> 02:09:09.239
into the hands of a rogue collective
intent on murdering him for the sake of

2036
02:09:09.279 --> 02:09:13.199
their art. And that is basically
the perfect synopsis for this movie. It

2037
02:09:13.319 --> 02:09:16.199
is it is not I mean,
it's a horror film, but it's but

2038
02:09:16.279 --> 02:09:22.439
it is a riotous comment yea.
It is unbelievably funny. It is non

2039
02:09:22.600 --> 02:09:28.479
stop you never know what's going to
happen next. The gore is insanely gruesome,

2040
02:09:28.560 --> 02:09:31.720
the humors insanely funny, and it
launched a major Hollywood career. It

2041
02:09:31.800 --> 02:09:35.439
did show me his name because I
don't want to get there. No,

2042
02:09:35.520 --> 02:09:37.760
won't make him Blair. But I'm
talking about the director Jeremy so Jeremy Solinger,

2043
02:09:37.800 --> 02:09:43.600
who did Blue Ruin, he did
Green Room, incredible directory and this

2044
02:09:43.600 --> 02:09:46.079
film. The reason I love it
so much and the reason it will be

2045
02:09:46.119 --> 02:09:52.680
on cutting Deep into horror is the
film skewers the Brooklyn and New York art

2046
02:09:52.720 --> 02:09:56.600
scene. Oh yeah, and in
a way that they deserved because well when

2047
02:09:56.640 --> 02:09:58.880
it came out. So it came
out, oh seven. I've been living

2048
02:09:58.880 --> 02:10:01.159
on the East Coast a year and
a half when it came out. Oh

2049
02:10:01.199 --> 02:10:03.239
wow. So when I watched it, I was like, Yeah, those

2050
02:10:03.279 --> 02:10:05.640
motherfuckers are out there, man,
they're out there, and the movie just

2051
02:10:05.760 --> 02:10:09.920
lampoons them. Yeah, it has
a great time doing it. Murder Party

2052
02:10:11.039 --> 02:10:15.039
is a must every Halloween season for
me, no matter what. Asways,

2053
02:10:15.079 --> 02:10:18.640
watch it available right now on Crackle, Monsters and Nightmares on the Prime Channel

2054
02:10:18.920 --> 02:10:20.760
Plex Pluto to be a little bit
everywhere for that one. If you haven't

2055
02:10:20.800 --> 02:10:24.840
seen Murder Party, this is the
year to make sure you attend the party.

2056
02:10:24.000 --> 02:10:28.039
Yeah, yeah, you're invited to. A second to last on the

2057
02:10:28.039 --> 02:10:33.520
list of Halloween must we have the
Immortal and Loved Trick our Treat from two

2058
02:10:33.560 --> 02:10:37.239
thousand and seven, which isn't from
two thousand Well look two thousand and seven.

2059
02:10:37.359 --> 02:10:39.319
Yeah, well it was made like
two thousand and three, three,

2060
02:10:39.439 --> 02:10:43.720
and then it was shelved for forever. Trick or Treat. Trick our Treat

2061
02:10:43.720 --> 02:10:46.319
we call it that, so you're
not confused by the heavy metal one,

2062
02:10:46.399 --> 02:10:50.279
correct, is is just about as
Halloween as you can get because it's not

2063
02:10:50.319 --> 02:10:54.119
just a movie on Halloween. It's
about Halloween. Yeah, it's about the

2064
02:10:54.479 --> 02:10:58.439
It's it's the kind of the stuff
I talk about on Weekly Spooky on Halloween

2065
02:10:58.479 --> 02:11:01.399
Dale I talk about, like I
of the concept of like let's sit and

2066
02:11:01.439 --> 02:11:03.600
think for a minute about like you
wear the costumes to blend in with the

2067
02:11:03.640 --> 02:11:07.840
monsters, and you give out candy
so they won't they won't come after you

2068
02:11:07.960 --> 02:11:11.319
later, and you keep the jackal
internlet because that's a way to keep the

2069
02:11:11.359 --> 02:11:15.920
evil spirits away. All these things. Trick or Treat goes crazy with them.

2070
02:11:15.920 --> 02:11:18.760
I mean, just the scene with
the little the little autistic girl who

2071
02:11:18.800 --> 02:11:24.880
carves a million really nice jack Lanelans. Yeah, it's just everything about It's

2072
02:11:24.880 --> 02:11:26.800
great. They said it in Ohio, which I think was really smart because

2073
02:11:28.000 --> 02:11:30.640
if you want to do like that, this town loves Halloween more than any

2074
02:11:30.640 --> 02:11:33.760
other town. I feel like Ohio
is where you should put it. Michael

2075
02:11:33.800 --> 02:11:37.680
Daugherty did an incredible job. Of
course, then he also did Godzilla,

2076
02:11:37.760 --> 02:11:41.119
King of the Monsters, I believe, and cramp Oh. Crampus is so

2077
02:11:41.159 --> 02:11:43.800
good too. That's just a great
film. If you haven't seen Trick our

2078
02:11:43.840 --> 02:11:48.520
Treat you. You need to it. It's it's a phenomenal film. It's

2079
02:11:48.520 --> 02:11:52.560
an anthology, except it's a it's
a tight anthology. They all tie in

2080
02:11:52.600 --> 02:11:56.640
together at the end, so at
first you feel like you're watching four individual

2081
02:11:56.680 --> 02:11:58.640
stories, but by the end you
realize you're really watching one big story.

2082
02:11:58.720 --> 02:12:03.000
Yeah, and the final story between
Brian Cox and our main character Sam is

2083
02:12:03.560 --> 02:12:07.159
Chef's kiss. It is so it's
so good. It's nailed perfectly. So

2084
02:12:07.199 --> 02:12:13.239
Trick our Treat is currently available to
rent on Prime. You can also find

2085
02:12:13.239 --> 02:12:16.359
it streaming on AMC Plus and in
another one that we'll be going back into

2086
02:12:16.399 --> 02:12:18.439
theaters this year as well. Too
good Good. I'd like to catch it

2087
02:12:18.479 --> 02:12:22.720
if I got too So last,
but not least certainly not. We are

2088
02:12:22.760 --> 02:12:26.520
going to go with a film that
does not take place on Halloween, but

2089
02:12:26.680 --> 02:12:30.479
is the embodiment of Halloween. Se
because I'm the one who made you realize

2090
02:12:30.479 --> 02:12:33.119
it was the best on Halloween.
That and also watching it and showing it

2091
02:12:33.159 --> 02:12:35.439
to Ali for the first time,
and Ali just getting sucked into it to

2092
02:12:35.479 --> 02:12:37.479
the point where she was like,
can we watch more? The Tales from

2093
02:12:37.479 --> 02:12:41.560
the Crip? That was That was
again we were talking about nineteen ninety five

2094
02:12:41.720 --> 02:12:46.319
Classic Tales from the cryp presents Demon
Night by our good friends Gil Adler and

2095
02:12:46.359 --> 02:12:48.600
Al Katz as well, who we
chatted with on our Freddie's Nightmares podcast.

2096
02:12:48.680 --> 02:12:52.920
Yes, and it's directed by Ernest
Dickerson, who's done incredible work, more

2097
02:12:52.960 --> 02:12:58.279
than than you can really mention juice. He did Surviving the Game, a

2098
02:12:58.319 --> 02:13:01.560
ton of episodes the Hood, Tails
from the Hood, I believe, Yeah,

2099
02:13:01.600 --> 02:13:05.680
and and tons of episodes of Walking
Dead. He's a phenomenal director,

2100
02:13:05.720 --> 02:13:07.520
and this was kind of one of
the first films I think that showed that

2101
02:13:07.600 --> 02:13:13.039
he could knock it out of the
park with like a big action he horror

2102
02:13:13.079 --> 02:13:16.039
thing. It's about a group of
misfits who are in this little boarding house,

2103
02:13:16.039 --> 02:13:20.439
a flop house in the middle of
nowhere when a man shows up who

2104
02:13:20.560 --> 02:13:26.880
is basically carrying an amulet that if
evil gets a hold of it, the

2105
02:13:26.920 --> 02:13:31.680
world is completely doomed. And I
love everything about it. The world building

2106
02:13:31.760 --> 02:13:35.560
is so simple and so good,
Like just the fact that like when he's

2107
02:13:35.560 --> 02:13:37.680
trying, when he's like, uh, they're like, do you want to

2108
02:13:37.720 --> 02:13:39.279
go back to this house or whatever? And he looks at it, He

2109
02:13:39.319 --> 02:13:43.960
looks at his hand and the tattoo
on his hand moves, it lights up,

2110
02:13:43.960 --> 02:13:45.640
it moves to a different part of
his palm, and then he goes,

2111
02:13:46.119 --> 02:13:48.199
this is the place. We're like, wait, what is the what

2112
02:13:48.239 --> 02:13:50.600
does that mean? Why did that? Why did his tattoo move? Why?

2113
02:13:50.680 --> 02:13:54.479
What did it tell him? It's
NonStop fund Billy Zane is an incredible

2114
02:13:54.520 --> 02:14:00.359
bad guy. Oh he's so good. There's nothing not to like about it.

2115
02:14:00.399 --> 02:14:05.039
And I'll never forget the night after
my Halloween parties at midnight, I

2116
02:14:05.079 --> 02:14:07.760
was like, we're watching Tales Incript
Demon Knight, and everyone's like okay,

2117
02:14:07.800 --> 02:14:11.640
and then by the end of everyone's
like, hell yeah, hell yeah it

2118
02:14:11.720 --> 02:14:15.359
is. It is a phenomenal movie, absolute fun. It's plenty of gore,

2119
02:14:15.479 --> 02:14:18.359
plenty of action, plenty of laughs, and above all else, an

2120
02:14:18.399 --> 02:14:20.720
incredible performance by the entire cast.
Like Hendrick said, you've got Billy Zane,

2121
02:14:20.760 --> 02:14:24.720
William Sadler, Jada Pickett, Smith, uh cch Pounder, Dick Taylor,

2122
02:14:26.279 --> 02:14:28.560
keep her name out of your mouth, Thomas Hayden, Church, Charles

2123
02:14:28.560 --> 02:14:31.000
Fleischer. I mean, the list
goes on and on. If you have

2124
02:14:31.159 --> 02:14:35.600
never seen Tales from the Crypt Demon
Knight, this is probably the most recommended

2125
02:14:35.640 --> 02:14:39.359
of this entire list for your Halloween
season. Tales from the Crypt Demon Knight

2126
02:14:39.520 --> 02:14:43.880
is an absolute blast of a time. You can watch it with friends.

2127
02:14:43.960 --> 02:14:46.119
You can probably watch it with family
if you want. What the hell?

2128
02:14:46.560 --> 02:14:50.079
Yeah, what if you got some
families are like like the Manson family.

2129
02:14:50.119 --> 02:14:52.640
Yeah, exactly, but nineteen ninety
five Tales from the Crypt Demon Knight that

2130
02:14:52.800 --> 02:14:56.079
is currently available on peacock. You
can also get an incredible blue ray from

2131
02:14:56.079 --> 02:15:01.880
shout Factory, rentable on any of
your streaming service and that is by far

2132
02:15:01.079 --> 02:15:05.279
one of the biggest picks off this
list that I think is absolutely appropriate to

2133
02:15:05.319 --> 02:15:07.239
close with. Yeah, I would
have to agree, great choices. You

2134
02:15:07.359 --> 02:15:11.439
left out the best Halloween movie of
all time, Babysitter Massacre. I didn't

2135
02:15:11.439 --> 02:15:15.159
do that on purpose. I just
didn't know if you wanted me to include

2136
02:15:15.159 --> 02:15:16.960
it on the list. No,
no, no, I see where you

2137
02:15:16.000 --> 02:15:20.359
stand now, so I can pull
up the old list and show you it's

2138
02:15:20.399 --> 02:15:22.880
on there. God no, no, But thank you David for taking the

2139
02:15:22.960 --> 02:15:26.159
time to sit down and help tell
all the spookies what they could watch to

2140
02:15:26.239 --> 02:15:31.720
really enjoy themselves this Halloween. So

it. I can't believe it. Yeah,

02:15:52.560 --> 02:15:54.279
So thank you again, Dave.
I do appreciate it. I did

2149
02:15:54.279 --> 02:15:58.439

hours, but I'm happy we could enjoy

2150
02:15:58.520 --> 02:16:01.279
a thunderstorm to each other. I'm
talking about scary movies. So until next
