1
00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:06.259
Mid-October has stopped pretending to be autumn and started auditioning
2
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:12.369
for Halloween. The leaves scrape the pavement, every dark window
3
00:00:12.449 --> 00:00:17.030
looks occupied, and the skeleton on your neighbor's porch has
4
00:00:17.190 --> 00:00:22.500
officially been there long enough to receive mail. This week,
5
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:27.500
a family reunion comes with ghosts, a Michigan premiere unleashes
6
00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:31.890
a cabin full of demons, and a heavily armed tactical
7
00:00:31.969 --> 00:00:36.909
team discovers that equipment is no substitute for an exit plan.
8
00:00:37.509 --> 00:00:43.009
Then a videotape gives us seven days to regret pressing play.
9
00:00:43.789 --> 00:00:47.179
After the break, a rockabilly killer brings a guitar with
10
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:53.670
one deeply impractical modification. So check the corners, distrust your TV,
11
00:00:53.770 --> 00:00:57.329
and never let the guy from the hardware store join
12
00:00:57.350 --> 00:01:11.170
your rock and roll band. Welcome back to This Week
13
00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:15.969
in Horror History. Your weekly time machine through the creepiest
14
00:01:16.069 --> 00:01:21.849
anniversaries in film, TV, books, comics... and games. Tonight we're
15
00:01:21.909 --> 00:01:27.109
talking all about October 12th through 18th. Coming up, The
16
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:31.700
Haunting of Hill House makes the family home everybody's problem.
17
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:36.760
The Evil Dead meets its first public audience. Fear puts
18
00:01:36.819 --> 00:01:40.219
you on point for the worst night you've ever had
19
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:44.049
at the office. And The Ring makes a ringing telephone
20
00:01:44.129 --> 00:01:49.379
sound like a death sentence. Then our deep-cut spotlight, Slumber
21
00:01:49.450 --> 00:01:54.299
Party Massacre Part 2. Bad dreams, a girl's rock band,
22
00:01:54.620 --> 00:02:04.799
and a guitar solo nobody would ever request. October 12th, 2018,
23
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:09.599
Netflix releases all ten episodes of The Haunting of Hill House,
24
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:13.259
and Mike Flanagan gives us a haunted house you can
25
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:18.780
move out of without... ever really leaving. His reimagining of
26
00:02:18.860 --> 00:02:24.469
Shirley Jackson's 1959 novel follows the five Crane siblings between
27
00:02:24.509 --> 00:02:28.810
their childhood in the mansion and adult lives, still shaped
28
00:02:28.909 --> 00:02:33.830
by what happened there. The family has scattered, but the damage,
29
00:02:34.449 --> 00:02:39.960
not so much. Some remember monsters. Some remember parents who
30
00:02:40.099 --> 00:02:44.159
failed them. Everyone brings a different version of the same.
31
00:02:44.689 --> 00:02:49.969
terrible night. Thanksgiving must be a hoot there. Flanagan makes
32
00:02:50.050 --> 00:02:56.620
the ghosts frightening without letting them do all the work. Addiction, grief, estrangement,
33
00:02:56.719 --> 00:03:01.060
and denial keep opening doors the family thought were shut.
34
00:03:01.860 --> 00:03:05.780
A conversation can hurt just as much as a knife
35
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:10.639
to the back or an apparition going boo. Though an
36
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:15.729
apparition does make it harder to finish a conversation. It
37
00:03:15.810 --> 00:03:18.770
is a hell of an October binge because the scares
38
00:03:18.870 --> 00:03:22.530
and the people matter so much. You want the cranes
39
00:03:22.590 --> 00:03:26.169
to escape even when they can't agree on what they're
40
00:03:26.229 --> 00:03:30.849
even escaping from. This was an incredibly addictive series that
41
00:03:30.939 --> 00:03:34.819
grabbed me from the first episode and had me just
42
00:03:35.180 --> 00:03:39.639
enthralled for ten episodes. If you've not seen it, start early.
43
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.400
Get watching it because it will pull you into a
44
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:46.159
Halloween vibe that you will really enjoy. All 10 episodes
45
00:03:46.210 --> 00:03:54.849
are available exclusively on Netflix with your subscription. October 15th, 1981.
46
00:03:54.849 --> 00:04:00.610
The Evil Dead has its first public screening at Detroit's
47
00:04:00.689 --> 00:04:04.469
Redford Theater. It was still called Book of the Dead
48
00:04:04.509 --> 00:04:08.310
at that point. Forty-five years later, that little cabin is
49
00:04:08.430 --> 00:04:14.169
considerably more famous than its occupants would have preferred. Sam Raimi,
50
00:04:14.250 --> 00:04:18.730
producer Robert Tappert, Bruce Campbell, and their Michigan collaborators had
51
00:04:19.069 --> 00:04:22.769
fought through a difficult Tennessee shoot to get here. The
52
00:04:22.810 --> 00:04:27.029
result was five young people, one isolated cabin, and a
53
00:04:27.149 --> 00:04:32.949
recording that nobody should play. But, of course, naturally, they
54
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.790
played it. Nobody ever discovers an ancient recording in a
55
00:04:36.850 --> 00:04:40.689
horror movie and decides to catch up on the weather instead.
56
00:04:41.410 --> 00:04:47.050
What follows is frantic, handmade terror. The camera charges through
57
00:04:47.089 --> 00:04:50.720
the woods, the cabin feels less than safe, and Ash
58
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:55.439
is not yet the confident wisecracker of later adventures, although
59
00:04:55.480 --> 00:04:59.040
he is still a pretty solid anti-hero, if you ask me.
60
00:04:59.740 --> 00:05:02.790
Right now, though, he's mostly trying to remain in one piece,
61
00:05:02.819 --> 00:05:07.170
and in this film... sort of does. I've been saying
62
00:05:07.230 --> 00:05:10.870
for a long time that the original Evil Dead it's
63
00:05:10.930 --> 00:05:13.589
my favorite of all of the series and not because
64
00:05:13.850 --> 00:05:16.800
it's the best or because it has the most lore
65
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.339
or the biggest laughs but because it is the creepiest.
66
00:05:19.439 --> 00:05:22.439
It's the one that actually kind of makes me unnerved
67
00:05:22.860 --> 00:05:27.480
and uncomfortable and it's the perfect Halloween one to watch
68
00:05:27.899 --> 00:05:30.689
because it will leave you feeling like you spent the
69
00:05:30.750 --> 00:05:33.689
night in that cabin and now You don't know what
70
00:05:33.750 --> 00:05:37.360
the hell is waiting for you outside it. The later U.S.
71
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:39.399
commercial release came in 1983. It made about $ 2. 4 million
72
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:42.939
domestically and $ 29. 4 million worldwide against a $ 375 million budget.
73
00:05:43.000 --> 00:05:44.759
Those numbers aren't exactly 100%. That's just what I could find.
74
00:05:44.779 --> 00:05:47.170
I imagine worldwide might have meant a longer period, but...
75
00:06:00.980 --> 00:06:03.519
No matter how you look at the numbers, it was
76
00:06:03.579 --> 00:06:08.209
a monumental hit. It established Sam Raimi and Bruce Campbell
77
00:06:08.350 --> 00:06:12.629
as major players in entertainment, and it all started at
78
00:06:12.670 --> 00:06:16.209
the Redford Theatre. in Detroit. If you want to give
79
00:06:16.350 --> 00:06:19.439
Evil Dead a watch, you really should, especially if you've
80
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:22.040
somehow never seen it. It's available right now to watch
81
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:25.439
on HBO Max with your subscription, and of course you
82
00:06:25.490 --> 00:06:28.529
can rent or buy it digitally through places like Amazon
83
00:06:28.550 --> 00:06:39.220
Prime Video, Apple TV, and Fandango at home. October 17th, 2005.
84
00:06:39.220 --> 00:06:43.740
Vivendi announces that Fear has shipped to stores with retail
85
00:06:43.800 --> 00:06:48.930
availability scheduled for the following day. Developed by Monolith, First
86
00:06:49.009 --> 00:06:52.310
Encounter Assault Recon puts you in the boots of the
87
00:06:52.370 --> 00:06:57.329
Point Man, investigating a psychic commander and his clone soldiers.
88
00:06:57.889 --> 00:07:02.449
Then Alma appears and your extremely serious tactical operation becomes
89
00:07:02.470 --> 00:07:07.620
a ghost story with... Excellent muzzle flashes. The gunfights are
90
00:07:07.750 --> 00:07:12.670
fast and physical. Slow motion reflexes turn flying debris into
91
00:07:12.829 --> 00:07:17.110
spectacle while enemies communicate flank and force you out of cover.
92
00:07:17.649 --> 00:07:20.670
For a moment you feel prepared for anything. Then the
93
00:07:21.470 --> 00:07:27.930
corridor goes quiet. A small figure appears where nobody should be.
94
00:07:28.850 --> 00:07:35.040
Suddenly all that ammunition feels like an administrative detail. That
95
00:07:35.180 --> 00:07:38.720
switch is the trick of the game. Let you feel powerful,
96
00:07:38.779 --> 00:07:43.170
then introduce something your training can't explain. The next doorway
97
00:07:43.250 --> 00:07:47.110
might start a firefight, but the next ladder might ruin
98
00:07:47.430 --> 00:07:52.529
your evening. GOG sells Fear Platinum, including the original game
99
00:07:52.730 --> 00:07:58.290
and both expansions, with Windows 11 verification in its preservation program.
100
00:07:58.810 --> 00:08:01.500
So try and find it if you can. Give it
101
00:08:01.540 --> 00:08:10.110
a play. Have a good time. October 18th, 2002, The
102
00:08:10.209 --> 00:08:14.100
Ring opens in U.S. theaters, and the worst thing about
103
00:08:14.139 --> 00:08:17.199
a rental tape is no longer that somebody forgot to
104
00:08:17.259 --> 00:08:22.639
rewind it. Naomi Watts plays Rachel Keller, a journalist investigating
105
00:08:22.699 --> 00:08:27.399
a videotape linked to deaths seven days after viewing. Gore
106
00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:32.990
Verbinski directs the American remake of Hideo Nakata's 1988 Japanese film,
107
00:08:33.350 --> 00:08:39.649
itself adapted from Koji Suzuki's novel. The hook is beautifully cruel.
108
00:08:40.529 --> 00:08:44.139
Watching is how you investigate. Watching is also how you
109
00:08:44.179 --> 00:08:49.399
become the next person who needs investigating. The television sits
110
00:08:49.460 --> 00:08:54.759
in your living room patiently waiting to stop being inert furniture.
111
00:08:55.539 --> 00:08:58.940
This is a classic. I mean, the Japanese original is phenomenal,
112
00:08:59.000 --> 00:09:02.980
but there's something about that 2002 The Ring that just
113
00:09:03.940 --> 00:09:08.009
checks all those... 2000-era horror movie boxes, and I feel
114
00:09:08.029 --> 00:09:11.850
like they've all aged shockingly well. It opened at number
115
00:09:12.009 --> 00:09:16.669
one with about $ 15 million. After expanding from 1,981 to 2,634 theaters,
116
00:09:16.750 --> 00:09:24.750
it climbed to roughly $ 18. 5 million the next weekend. The
117
00:09:24.789 --> 00:09:27.279
numbers list $ 129. 1 million domestic and $ 248 million worldwide against
118
00:09:27.299 --> 00:09:29.340
a $ 48 million production budget. That's a lot of people
119
00:09:29.360 --> 00:09:41.990
paying to become... suspicious of their own phones and then
120
00:09:42.710 --> 00:09:46.269
vcrs and tvs but hey we gotta have some fun
121
00:09:46.330 --> 00:09:49.889
somehow it's available to watch right now on paramount plus
122
00:09:50.230 --> 00:09:52.450

00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:07.710
on Weekly Spooky, as we bring you yet another spooky
125
00:10:07.779 --> 00:10:14.389
season tale, Trevor Gillespie's Halloween assignment is simple. Guard a
126
00:10:14.529 --> 00:10:21.029
bankrupt blood bank. No candies, No costume parties, just one
127
00:10:21.269 --> 00:10:28.090
miserable overnight shift that he never wanted. Then, somebody knocks.
128
00:10:29.009 --> 00:10:35.269
The visitor is pale, polite, and very interested in coming inside.
129
00:10:35.970 --> 00:10:43.809
Trevor says no. Unfortunately, his customer has fangs, an agenda,
130
00:10:44.330 --> 00:10:49.919
and a dangerous talent for exploiting. careless words. Now a
131
00:10:49.980 --> 00:10:55.970
paralegal must protect the blood supply without becoming the freshest donation.
132
00:10:56.909 --> 00:11:01.269

138
00:11:22.149 --> 00:11:30.149
bloodsucker works for the bank. Alright, time for a quick breather.
139
00:11:30.549 --> 00:11:34.509
But when we come back, Slumber Party Massacre 2 puts
140
00:11:34.549 --> 00:11:38.000
a power drill on a guitar and somehow makes that
141
00:11:38.080 --> 00:11:58.090
into everybody else's problem. Let's buzz. All right, my spookies,
142
00:11:58.409 --> 00:12:02.480
we're back. So let's meet a man who heard Killer
143
00:12:02.539 --> 00:12:09.519
Guitar Solo and took it literally. On October 16th, 1987,
144
00:12:09.519 --> 00:12:15.590
Slumber Party Massacre 2 gets a small Los Angeles theatrical
145
00:12:15.750 --> 00:12:21.320
opening before heading to home video. Writer-director Deborah Brock does
146
00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:25.710
not settle for another guy with another drill. She gives
147
00:12:25.759 --> 00:12:31.110
the drill a frontman. Crystal Bernard plays Courtney Bates, Valerie's
148
00:12:31.169 --> 00:12:34.429
younger sister from the first film. A weekend with her
149
00:12:34.470 --> 00:12:41.090
bandmates promises romance and a break from terrible memories. The Nightmares, though,
150
00:12:41.570 --> 00:12:46.230
they have other plans. Enter Atanas Illich as the Driller Killer.
151
00:12:46.850 --> 00:12:50.970
Black leather, rockabilly swagger, and an electric guitar with a
152
00:12:51.110 --> 00:12:55.250
spinning drill bit. There are easier ways to get thrown
153
00:12:55.289 --> 00:12:58.950
out of a band, but this'll do. The first movie
154
00:12:59.009 --> 00:13:03.370
mixed a direct slasher threat with heaps of dark humor,
155
00:13:03.409 --> 00:13:08.250
but part two swerves into music video lighting, grotesque visions,
156
00:13:08.350 --> 00:13:13.159
and a killer who treats stalking like an audition. Courtney
157
00:13:13.220 --> 00:13:17.409
can't trust what she sees, but also... Neither can we.
158
00:13:18.309 --> 00:13:22.210
The killer doesn't just enter scenes, he performs them. It's
159
00:13:22.289 --> 00:13:27.629
frightening but silly and wildly committed to whatever terrible idea
160
00:13:28.210 --> 00:13:31.870
just came to its mind. Working titles for it included
161
00:13:32.330 --> 00:13:35.750
Don't Let Go and Go For It. The end credits
162
00:13:35.870 --> 00:13:40.149
warning threatens unauthorized copiers with a midnight visit from the
163
00:13:40.190 --> 00:13:45.460
driller killer. Apparently the copyright department also books live entertainment.
164
00:13:46.200 --> 00:13:49.850
This film is everything to me. It is fun. It's silly.
165
00:13:50.090 --> 00:13:55.090
It's gory. It's campy. It's super duper 80s. And it's
166
00:13:55.190 --> 00:13:59.590
just such a fascinating direction because Slumber Party Massacre 1,
167
00:13:59.570 --> 00:14:03.309
it's a classic. It's a legendary movie. It's got a
168
00:14:03.350 --> 00:14:05.960
lot of weird, creepy subtext. It's got a lot of
169
00:14:06.059 --> 00:14:09.779
great humor. Then 2 is the driller killer with a guitar.
170
00:14:09.860 --> 00:14:14.840
Then 3 is the really heavy, dark one. Yeah, if
171
00:14:14.860 --> 00:14:18.549
you've never seen Slumber Party Massacre 3, it is a doozy.
172
00:14:18.669 --> 00:14:20.990
I love it, but it is a nasty little piece
173
00:14:21.009 --> 00:14:24.669
of work. I actually just recently randomly threw this film
174
00:14:24.750 --> 00:14:26.919
at my buddies on a Friday night movie night at
175
00:14:26.960 --> 00:14:29.659
my house. We put it on the big projector screen
176
00:14:29.700 --> 00:14:32.639
and they had to learn, you say why, I say
177
00:14:32.700 --> 00:14:37.690
because let's buzz. And this film did not have any
178
00:14:37.769 --> 00:14:42.230
theatrical grosses because this was a movie purely made for
179
00:14:42.289 --> 00:14:47.289
home video. And it has all the fun necessary to
180
00:14:47.690 --> 00:14:52.549
bring that joy, that VHS fun to the world. So
181
00:14:52.690 --> 00:14:55.389
it's not a Halloween-y pick per se. It's more of
182
00:14:55.429 --> 00:14:58.870
a summer fun gore fest with a lot of bizarre
183
00:14:58.909 --> 00:15:01.669
and memorable moments and a few sing-alongs if you're into
184
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:04.220
that kind of thing. But I think it's an unruly
185
00:15:04.320 --> 00:15:08.220
October pick. And it's one of those examples where so
186
00:15:08.259 --> 00:15:11.080
many sequels repeat the original, but this one asks whether
187
00:15:11.139 --> 00:15:15.179
the murder weapon could headline a show and if you
188
00:15:15.200 --> 00:15:19.220
can compete with B.B. King. So all I say is,
189
00:15:19.659 --> 00:15:23.710
you say why. I say because let's buzz. It's available
190
00:15:23.730 --> 00:15:26.889
to watch right now on Prime Video, Shudder, and AMC
191
00:15:26.929 --> 00:15:30.889
Plus with your subscription or free with ads on Tubi.
192
00:15:30.970 --> 00:15:34.309
So you can't beat that with a stick. It's free.
193
00:15:34.860 --> 00:15:37.419
but maybe you could beat it with a drill guitar.
194
00:15:41.019 --> 00:15:45.240
Now it's time for some horror-related birthdays, and we've got
195
00:15:45.299 --> 00:15:50.250
some legends here yet again. First up, born on October 14th, 1944,
196
00:15:50.250 --> 00:15:56.929
is Udo Kier. Remembering the cult icon of flesh for Frankenstein,
197
00:15:57.009 --> 00:16:01.230
blood for Dracula, Suspiria, and Blade, a face that could
198
00:16:01.269 --> 00:16:07.919
make a perfectly ordinary introduction feel... Not ordinary, to say
199
00:16:07.980 --> 00:16:11.559
the least. There's no one quite like Udo Kier. A
200
00:16:11.639 --> 00:16:19.629
very happy birthday to Mr. Udo Kier. Born on October 16th, 1958,
201
00:16:19.629 --> 00:16:26.210
is Tim Robbins. His unraveling performance in Jacob's Ladder makes
202
00:16:26.269 --> 00:16:30.250
you want answers almost as badly as his character does.
203
00:16:31.149 --> 00:16:35.570
It's a standout in a career of standouts. A very
204
00:16:35.629 --> 00:16:43.450
happy birthday to Tim Robbins. Born on October 17th, 1948,
205
00:16:43.450 --> 00:16:49.000
Margot Kidder, Black Christmas, Sisters, the reincarnation of Peter Proud, and,
206
00:16:49.269 --> 00:16:54.360
of course, the Amityville Horror, an extraordinary horror resume with
207
00:16:54.399 --> 00:16:58.000
enough attitude to keep the darkness on its toes. She
208
00:16:58.080 --> 00:17:01.899
always had that little extra something, that made her roles
209
00:17:02.000 --> 00:17:07.420
stand out, especially in her horror films. Happy birthday, Margot Kidder.
210
00:17:08.630 --> 00:17:14.789
And finally, born on October 18th, 1927, is George C. Scott,
211
00:17:15.509 --> 00:17:18.970
a man who brought so much to The Changeling and
212
00:17:19.029 --> 00:17:23.049
The Exorcist 3. Few people could demand answers from the
213
00:17:23.109 --> 00:17:27.099
impossible with as much authority as he could. He made
214
00:17:27.339 --> 00:17:30.980
anything he was in elevated substantially in that, of course
215
00:17:31.039 --> 00:17:34.480
meant it would be much scarier. So a very happy
216
00:17:34.549 --> 00:17:37.410
birthday to George C. Scott and to all of our
217
00:17:37.509 --> 00:17:47.809
horror birthdays. This week for our Then and Now, listen
218
00:17:47.950 --> 00:17:52.630
to what changes across this week's stories. In The Evil Dead,
219
00:17:52.710 --> 00:17:57.539
the recording carries the danger into the room. In The Ring,
220
00:17:57.970 --> 00:18:01.769
the screen brings it home Fear makes us move through
221
00:18:01.829 --> 00:18:06.930
the nightmare ourselves. Hill House keeps changing the story by
222
00:18:07.049 --> 00:18:13.609
showing who remembers it. Different technology, same terrible bargain. You
223
00:18:13.670 --> 00:18:17.589
want to know what happened and finding out means you'll
224
00:18:17.609 --> 00:18:22.000
get closer. Then Slumber Party Massacre 2 throws in a
225
00:18:22.039 --> 00:18:26.759
guitar drill because apparently horror history can't sit through one
226
00:18:26.940 --> 00:18:35.039
serious observation without questioning somebody plugging in an amplifier. And
227
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:40.619
for our weekly recommendation, this is a classic. We're heading
228
00:18:40.660 --> 00:18:46.680
back to October 18th, 1984, when Re-Animator opens in New York,
229
00:18:47.680 --> 00:18:51.829
with Los Angeles following a week later. Stuart Gordon's loose
230
00:18:51.970 --> 00:18:57.480
adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft's Herbert West stories stars Jeffrey Combs
231
00:18:57.559 --> 00:19:01.859
as a medical student whose glowing green reagent can restart
232
00:19:01.940 --> 00:19:06.299
dead tissue. His people skills could use a little reanimation
233
00:19:06.420 --> 00:19:10.420
as well. Bruce Abbott plays Dan Cain, the roommate pulled
234
00:19:10.460 --> 00:19:15.220
into West's experiments, and Barbara Crampton is Megan Halsey, who
235
00:19:15.289 --> 00:19:20.710
has an excellent reason to distrust the new arrival. West
236
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:24.079
doesn't see a catastrophe, all he sees is a result
237
00:19:24.160 --> 00:19:28.940
that requires further testing. The comedy comes from how seriously
238
00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:33.359
he takes himself while everything around him gets messier and messier,
239
00:19:33.660 --> 00:19:38.200
and I mean messier. You laugh, recoil, and then realize
240
00:19:38.289 --> 00:19:42.950
the next experiment has already started. The original release went
241
00:19:43.029 --> 00:19:47.730
out unrated rather than risk and X rating, which restricted advertising.
242
00:19:48.309 --> 00:19:52.849
The best numbers I could find require... roughly $ 2 million domestically.
1
00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:06.259
2
00:00:06.839 --> 00:00:12.369
3
00:00:12.449 --> 00:00:17.030
4
00:00:17.190 --> 00:00:22.500
5
00:00:22.559 --> 00:00:27.500
6
00:00:27.559 --> 00:00:31.890
7
00:00:31.969 --> 00:00:36.909
8
00:00:37.509 --> 00:00:43.009
9
00:00:43.789 --> 00:00:47.179
10
00:00:47.399 --> 00:00:53.670
11
00:00:53.770 --> 00:00:57.329
12
00:00:57.350 --> 00:01:11.170
13
00:01:11.250 --> 00:01:15.969
14
00:01:16.069 --> 00:01:21.849
15
00:01:21.909 --> 00:01:27.109
16
00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:31.700
17
00:01:32.319 --> 00:01:36.760
18
00:01:36.819 --> 00:01:40.219
19
00:01:40.280 --> 00:01:44.049
20
00:01:44.129 --> 00:01:49.379
21
00:01:49.450 --> 00:01:54.299
22
00:01:54.620 --> 00:02:04.799
23
00:02:04.799 --> 00:02:09.599
24
00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:13.259
25
00:02:13.639 --> 00:02:18.780
26
00:02:18.860 --> 00:02:24.469
27
00:02:24.509 --> 00:02:28.810
28
00:02:28.909 --> 00:02:33.830
29
00:02:34.449 --> 00:02:39.960
30
00:02:40.099 --> 00:02:44.159
31
00:02:44.689 --> 00:02:49.969
32
00:02:50.050 --> 00:02:56.620
33
00:02:56.719 --> 00:03:01.060
34
00:03:01.860 --> 00:03:05.780
35
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:10.639
36
00:03:10.719 --> 00:03:15.729
37
00:03:15.810 --> 00:03:18.770
38
00:03:18.870 --> 00:03:22.530
39
00:03:22.590 --> 00:03:26.169
40
00:03:26.229 --> 00:03:30.849
41
00:03:30.939 --> 00:03:34.819
42
00:03:35.180 --> 00:03:39.639
43
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.400
44
00:03:42.439 --> 00:03:46.159
45
00:03:46.210 --> 00:03:54.849
46
00:03:54.849 --> 00:04:00.610
47
00:04:00.689 --> 00:04:04.469
48
00:04:04.509 --> 00:04:08.310
49
00:04:08.430 --> 00:04:14.169
50
00:04:14.250 --> 00:04:18.730
51
00:04:19.069 --> 00:04:22.769
52
00:04:22.810 --> 00:04:27.029

00:04:27.149 --> 00:04:32.949

00:04:41.410 --> 00:04:47.050
