00:01:12
Speaker
I don't remember what my total score was. I do remember if it wasn't for him. I think it was two. I think it was two. I think I bumped into three then, yeah. Or maybe I bumped into two, yeah. I gave a bump for Tara Reid as well. She was like, walk up and down the stairs. Well, both of them are in it like two seconds and that's it. And then it's all sweaty pianos. Yes, I'm going to have Tara Reid sign it and then I'm going to find someone who plays piano.

Exploring 'Barbarian'
00:03:28
Speaker
That God, I honestly, God, I don't remember what the hell barbarians about. Is that the old movie? Oh, no, no, that's like something kind of new. It was actually set in Detroit, too. Oh, God. Yeah. Sorry. I need to make a I need to make a list of all the Detroit films like Don't Breathe. It follows. It follows. And and this now to barbarian.
00:03:59
Speaker
Barbarian. Okay. What's all right. What's barbarian? Who's it with? Okay. It's with a scars guard, but I forget which scars guard gotta look. Okay. There's three of them we could pick from. It's going to be older scars guard, younger scars guard. So it's the younger ones. It's younger scars guard. It's Bill scars guard. Bill. Bill.
00:04:29
Speaker
Okay. Um, and then it has, um, Georgina Campbell and Justin Long. I forgot it has Justin Long. Yes. Does he play a walrus? I hope so. No, he actually plays an asshole. He plays such an asshole and it's so good. And I'm really proud of him for coming back to Detroit to film because he had not had a good
00:04:57
Speaker
experience in Detroit. Um, people had allegedly, according to him, like kidnapped him for a while when he came to Detroit less. So I, um, they were going to try to ransom him, I think. Hey, that's not funny. It's not funny. I feel. To whom? Two or more in the time machine. Who fucking knows. But I do feel bad that
00:05:27
Speaker
that happened. But yep, this is 2022. So this was last year. And it's basically this girl and Bill Skarsgard
00:05:42
Speaker
run to the same house accidentally. Oh, shit. Did you see this? No, maybe. Am I in the right track if I say, is there a couple and then there's a dude that comes by after, right, or a girl? Is there a girl? Well, they're not a couple. I thought there was like two people, no. Yeah, there are two people in the beginning.
00:06:11
Speaker
It's Skarsgard and Campbell.
Red Flags and Intuition Discussion
00:06:15
Speaker
Basically, they book the same house. She does it through Airbnb. He does it through another booking agency. Whoops, big snafu. He's like, well, you might as well stay the night because it's late at night and we'll figure this out in the morning.
00:06:36
Speaker
But the house has a dark secret to it. And there's just them two. There's no one else. And then Justin Long comes later. There's a secret passageway under the house. Does that sound familiar? No. OK, then you might not have seen it. But it is interesting because Zach Krieger, who wrote and directed it,
00:07:08
Speaker
It was interesting because it's all about reading warnings and trauma that comes into it and the ripple effects of abuse.
00:07:29
Speaker
There's some kind of weird parts in it. It actually kind of reminded me of like X-Files. There's this one X-Files that I don't want to say too much because then it's kind of spoilery. You're going to spoil X-Files? Is it the one where there's an alien in it and the guy is smoking a cigarette? No, it's where there's an inbred family. Oh, well. Yeah.
00:07:53
Speaker
And so it's kind of like that, but he said it was inspired by the nonfiction book, The Gift of Fear. And he cites like, according to Wikipedia, so, but he cited a section that encouraged women to trust their intuition and not like ignore red flags. And basically he started writing a 30 page scene in which would incorporate as many as the red flags as possible.
00:08:21
Speaker
And that's how it started coming to be. So it's very interesting. It's really interesting. It was not what I was thinking it was going to be. I thought it was going to be like a haunted type horror movie. Not an actual like physical thing type horror movie.
00:08:51
Speaker
Um, I wanted to actually spend, I did like Justin Long, but I wanted to spend more time with, um, Campbell's character because I thought she was really fascinating. Um, but it is kind of nice. Um, Detroit is not the bad guy, surprisingly. Um, although you think it is going to be at some points cause there's a guy that's like chasing after her saying, lady, come here, come here. And you find out later he was trying to warn her. So, um,
00:09:21
Speaker
Detroit isn't a bad guy. It's horrible people. Horrible people are bad guys. Detroit? There's horrible people in Detroit? There is, but there's also good people too, like one of the people that was trying to save her.
00:09:38
Speaker
You have horrible people and you have someone renting the same place and you have confusion and crawl spaces and X files and inbreds and all this happens in Detroit. In this movie, yes. That's a big fucking, and there's a 30 page scene. Well, that's what he had started with.
00:10:04
Speaker
That is what he had started with is just basically trying to incorporate how many, especially for women or AFABs, I should say, um, the red flags that they get when they're with other people. So it's like, well, like one of them is arriving to a strange place alone. Um, you know, having a guy there, like,
00:10:32
Speaker
Is that safe for you to stay with him? Because he's a stranger and you don't know him. There's a part when he's like, oh, I have some wine. I haven't opened it, but do you want some wine? And she's like, no thanks. But later on, she didn't have tea. She did have tea.
00:10:53
Speaker
Um, and then the guys listen to her last episode. Um, but, but eventually she does have the one because then she finds out, you know, a little more about him, but basically it's all these like little red flag signs that a fabs have to go through every day to see if it's safe or if it's not safe, you know? Um, and a lot of gut intuition. Is it? Okay. I got two questions. One. Sure.
00:11:21
Speaker
Is roller Gator one of the red flags? Because if not, it should be. Yes, I guess wine and roller Gator on TV. Yes. And then that was the bad guy had roller Gator playing. Oh man. Yeah. But you're saying a fabs. So what's the opposite of a fab? What's like a map? A maps.
Detroit's Portrayal in 'Barbarian'
00:11:44
Speaker
No, I thought it would be a map. I wasn't he like the captain of the that's a hab.
00:11:52
Speaker
You're you're a ma'am You're old. Wait until I start doing, fuck man. I'm gonna start doing my Gilbert Godfrey impression of Gilbert Godfrey doing an impression of, uh, Gilbert Godfrey? The March brothers. The March brothers. Oh God. Carl. Not like the funny one. I was doing Carl March.
00:12:16
Speaker
Carl Marx. Carl Marx, by the way. Zeppo, Carl, Gacho, Arpo. Carl's in there. Carl? He plays state. We have to come together as a communist state and they're like,
00:12:36
Speaker
Actually, that's the three stooges, but you get it. Okay. My question is, you're saying that AFABs have these red flags. Does that mean no one else has these red flags? I think it's more geared towards AFABs because there's a lot more dangers. Why?
00:13:00
Speaker
Why? There's a lot of predatory people and a lot of predatory men. In fact, I was just speaking today with somebody who a couple weeks ago didn't come to one of our groups and I was like, hey, what's going on? And she's like, oh, you know, I was out at this club and some guy like tried to finger me. And so I just wasn't feeling like coming out for a while and I'm like, pardon?
00:13:24
Speaker
She's like, you know, it, it happens. And it's like, you know, it was Tuesday. And, but again, it's, it's like having to mitigate things like that. And she's like, you know, it was hard because at first it was like, well, did I, did I stand out? Did I, you know, was I wearing something? And it's always like these things in the back of your mind. But that's always the case. You can't walk out.
00:13:53
Speaker
you know, dark alone, you know, um, a lot of times you'll cross the street if there's, you know, a lot of people coming your way. Uh, it is, you know, a lot of dangers that you have to look, look out for and red flags, you know, especially like in the dating world and, you know, and even in regular life. Okay. Have you ever seen euphoria?
00:14:23
Speaker
You know, I haven't. I'm not that sad yet. Well, the reason I asked, I don't know the person is, boy, euphoria. I don't know the person's name off. Zendaya? No, Zendaya, the one that runs all the wars. Not her.
00:14:41
Speaker
But it's going to be God, I want to say Hunter Shafer. It could be someone else.
Review of 'Barbarian'
00:14:49
Speaker
I don't really know the series all that well. It's been a while. Is it Lou Ferrigno? No, but. But it's going to be someone who who plays. I can see they're going to be Sydney's Sydney's. It's going to be the one. OK, whatever.
00:15:10
Speaker
It's gonna be someone who's playing a character who we don't really know what gender.
00:15:24
Speaker
And I'm using that in the traditional term, right? A gender or sex? Sure. I'm not. The minutiae is not going to rhyme me today. It's going to be because it's for the show Euphoria. It's someone who's having a lot of the AFAB red flags as you're bringing up, but they're not.
00:15:53
Speaker
but they're not. They're someone who's transitioning. They're someone who's transitioning. Transitioning to female? Yes. Okay, so that's still a female experience. I mean, I say AFAB. A female assigned at birth, so it's not so. You're right. You're right. I would say it's an AFAB and woman experience. And you're right, like there is that
00:16:17
Speaker
splitting of hairs, but it's true. I say AFABs too because even if you transition from female to male, you'll still have some of those experiences and those fears of growing up in that because it was always like, oh, make sure you don't get into the car with strangers because you'll be raped and killed. They were told that to little boys too though.
00:16:47
Speaker
Like guys get the whole, no, I don't think any, any parent says like, all right, you motherfuckers, any, any stranger offers you candy. Just run, get inside the car, go for it. You don't get candy once in your life. I feel, yeah, no, and I do. I think it's more prevalent though with growing up as a female.
00:17:14
Speaker
Welcome to. Yeah, welcome to Red Flags and to to. But this is good. I appreciate it because I
Critique of 'Nun 2'
00:17:24
Speaker
don't know the red flags without without saying what's what are red flags because red flags now the connotation connotation for red flags now are things like, oh, he likes. Black tea.
00:17:41
Speaker
Well, he has a picture of a fish on Tinder. No, no, no. We use red flags for different levels of sensitivity. So you're talking about actual red flags of. I'm talking like killed. Like, yes, like danger. Sometimes. Yes. Like if if let's say a bigger dude than me or something like that is standing in between me and the door.
00:18:13
Speaker
that's immediately like a red flag. Like, especially if he's upset or something, it's like, Oh, you've just trapped me in here. There's, there's, you know, I cannot leave or, um, even sometimes guys being too nice. It's like, okay, what is the purpose of this? You know, are you being nice or are you looking for something else? Um,
00:18:40
Speaker
You know, things like that, people coming and approaching you in a parking lot, you know, and I have had that before and it was fine, but it did raise my like, okay, what's going on? Where, where am I going to go? If something goes down, where does it come from box? Where are those red flags come from? Are you taught society? Yeah, you're taught this. So society teaches you how through talking with other women.
00:19:10
Speaker
through reinforcement of identity. Yeah, through I think identity. Like again, like you'll be at a slumber party and some suddenly somebody is like spilling out their guts of like how they were at the library and somebody came up and was groping them and they were scared and they couldn't say anything. And you're only 12 years old and what do you do? You know, um,
00:19:36
Speaker
you know, or things like that. Mine was, and I'll go and mom's probably going to like, roll her eyes, but, um, Deanna Seifert was the, was the one for me. Cause she was a little girl woman on Star Trek. Nope. She was a little girl in this area around my age at the time. And she was at a slumber party and somebody came in and kidnapped her and raped and killed her and dumped her body in a garbage, in a trash thing.
00:20:05
Speaker
And at that time, everybody's like no slumber parties for females, no slumber parties because this is what could happen to you guys. You could just, she was a female, she was a little girl just like you. They came into the window or how they? They still kind of don't know. Honestly, reading the case again, it's kind of sketch like for the people that they, they pinned it on. Cause there wasn't really a lot of evidence.
00:20:34
Speaker
but they think that they entered through either a window or through the back door and she might've gotten up to go to the bathroom or something like that and they nabbed her and they grabbed her and they took her out and nobody knew about it until the morning. So it was the wrong place, wrong time? Yeah, absolutely. Wrong place, wrong time. But over here it was like all the schools were like,
00:21:00
Speaker
you know, telling parents don't have slumber parties, don't have people over, you know, that you don't know. Um, and it was around my birthday too. And my mom's like, I don't think we can have a slumber party for you because of this. Oh, wow. And, and I was only six, I want to say. So like six or seven. And so that kind of, yeah, that burned into my memory of just like, Oh, this happens.
00:21:29
Speaker
to little
Praise for 'Mad God'
00:21:30
Speaker
children like me, you know, to AFABs like me. And, you know, we were always taught like, you know, at the park, you know, if a guy approaches you, you know, you'll run away. And I remember during when I was over in that area too, there was people, a guy that would approach kids, AFABs, you know, and start talking to them. And we were told like, you can't do that, you know, like,
00:21:56
Speaker
Same with, um, there was a seven 11 where a guy was flashing, um, a fabs too. And they said, you know, you want to stay away from that seven 11. So it's like to make you feel safe for your limited, you know, you're limiting your choices and your options. Well, wouldn't you get a gun as a six year old, as a 12 year old, a six year old in America, son.
00:22:23
Speaker
That's true. You have your own fucking guns. You have your own line of guns at that point. I had my own BB gun, so that was kind of cool. I had a big dog, thankfully. I had a big dog. I think there was a couple of times where there'd be strangers walking up and my dog would bark and they would leave.
00:22:45
Speaker
Those are the red flags and you're saying they're societal reinforced, meaning not just society itself, but you're getting personal experiences that from that end of society being reinforced like, Oh, this guy is an asshole because we see this versus a whisper of a rumor, that type of. Yeah, I would say that. And, and also, um, yeah, yeah, I would say,
00:23:11
Speaker
it kind of comes at you at all sides, you know, cause then there's always those special episodes too. And you know, um, it's reinforced by media. Well, you know, like the special episodes of like, you know, I don't know, full house or something like that where it's like, Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Those kinds of things. Stranger danger.
00:23:36
Speaker
And all Full House was a bunch of girls, I think, like all girls. Yep. Until later on. And then they had the twins, but yeah, it was all girls. Well, the twins are still girls too. All some twins. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. No, I'm talking about the twin boys later on. They had twin boys later on. Yes, they did. Jesus, man. That's too much. Yeah. And they all lived in that house.
00:24:00
Speaker
Gotta get a bigger fucking house. Fuck the boat thing. Get a bigger house. Okay, so this will be, Barbarian has a lot of flags and she dismisses them? In the beginning, um, she does. And actually, and I'll, I'll say this because it's very, very in the beginning. Um, Skarsgard is an okay guy. He's, he's not the one that, you know, um, but it's. Fucking walrus.
00:24:28
Speaker
Jason, the funny thing is Jason Long plays a very unsympathetic character in this. And he plays him really well because you hate the character. You know, he's like, I'm a good guy. I'm a good guy. But then he's an actor who there's allegations of sexual assaults. And like throughout the store, you know, you start to hear his pieces of the story, and then it gets a little bit
00:24:53
Speaker
less believable and less believable over time. It's- Wait a minute. You're doing Jason Long now and you did- Justin Long. Sorry, Justin Long. Justin, my bad. I think I said Jason by mistake. Oh, okay, okay. And you did Louise last time. Are you just going through like waiting and seeing who's in horror movies if that cast? If Dane Cook fucking pops up somewhere, a, disappointed, he's a piece of shit. But that's not even allegedly, he's a joke thief. Fuck him.
00:25:22
Speaker
And B is, is Rhino Reynolds going to pop up? Cause this is, you're doing like the cast of waiting for the last couple of weeks. Oh, am I? Yeah. Well, we, we only brushed him on like Louise Guzman, but, um, I mean, I could, I could do Ryan Reynolds. He was in, um, M&D before. Oh, he was. That's right. He did the remake of it. Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. He sure did. So he's also in the ring.
00:25:54
Speaker
The Green Lantern. It was a really horror shitty movie about a ring. That's all I remember. I think it was Green Lantern and I don't think it was horror. It was not horror. It was not horror. I remember it was a fucking horror movie. Fucking paid money for that.
00:26:08
Speaker
The only, I mean, I'm sure he's in other horror movies, but the one that I remember him in the most was. Yeah. Based on a true story, sort of. All right. So we have. You've got some flags going on. You have to ignore your flags going on. You have Justin Long straight off of getting this walrus touch removed and start killing people immediately. Apparently. Is this.
00:26:37
Speaker
Is this CGI or is it just all practical? It's practical effects. Honestly, I've been so spoiled recently. All the movies I've seen have practical effects and I've been just loving it to pieces. Including the last movie we're talking about today, Mad God. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah, so practical effects.
00:27:08
Speaker
there isn't a lot of gore in it. But it is a scary movie. And there's a lot of tension in it. And there's a lot of just, like I said, there's themes in it. There's things like that. And like I said, it's at the heart of Detroit. And
00:27:33
Speaker
I think that's part of it too is, you know, because she's staying in this Airbnb and people are like, Oh, that's, that's not a good part. You know, that's dangerous. Yeah. And, um, it's really not the, the neighborhood itself. It's, it's the remnant of one of those red flags, like a red flag dude, you know, like a gross, gross dude. Hmm. Ron Jeremy's in this movie, huh? Okay. Hmm.
00:28:04
Speaker
I'm not going to spoil it. I'm not going to spoil it. Okay. No spoilers. What would you give it? What would you give as a rating? Okay. I wanted to like it more. I will be honest. Um, it was like I said, it wasn't what I was expecting it to be. And so keep that with in it. I think people will enjoy it. If you like, um, that kind of like more of a thoughtful kind of story. Um,
00:28:33
Speaker
But like I said, I wanted it to be haunted house. Um, so I'm going to give it a 3.75. Oh, what are that? Some five. Cause I don't think it was enough to be a four, but again, it was very, the music was great. Um, I wanted, I wanted more blood, I guess, and more gore. Um, but it was, it was very sympathetic in some ways that I wasn't expecting that had more heart.
00:29:04
Speaker
and brain to it than what I was expecting. Passion brains. Campbell did a great job. I loved her. I wanted to see more of her character and who she was. I think maybe that's why I'm giving it a lower score because I wanted to explore that a little more. 375. It's not bad. No, no. It's a good movie. It's going to beat the crap out of my score for my next movie. I know that.
00:29:31
Speaker
Oh no, you didn't like the none too. None too much. No, not at all. Did you watch the first one? Yeah. Wasn't very interesting either. I did a review on the first one on the, on the website. Yes. Did you like it? I said, yeah, I did. But as like a haunted house, like as a place where you go in and it's like, boo.
00:29:57
Speaker
Yeah, you know like that was basically what if you look at it from that perspective It was fun. I mean, it's not gonna like tell me the meaning of life or anything, but it was a good popcorn movie Yeah, well put it this way if you kind of like done as a popcorn movie you think all the exciting elements have none remove them all and
00:30:19
Speaker
Force feed a person of color because apparently that was a fucking criticism of other movies to white. I mean, it's true. Yeah. Well, yeah. I mean, it was also what? Ailey 1500. Like what the fuck you want? I don't know if it was boring.
00:30:40
Speaker
It didn't. It was a true sequel to the point and they're trying to do like the conjuring, the conjuring universe. So they're trying to do that bullshit and they're really force feeding at the end. There is a, there's a small scene at the, you know, after, after credits, like the fucking Marvel movie. Not as interesting as any of the Marvel movie ones, but they, they try to shoot horror and, and it's this way.
00:31:06
Speaker
The demons back again or some shit. I don't know. Going through fucking orphanages and nunneries and burst of. Preset of fire. That's how it starts out. And there's a lineage of some none. Oh, you're actually a famous nun lineage. That's why you can do shit or something like that. I thought nuns didn't have babies. Yeah, well, muppet babies only.
00:31:35
Speaker
And so you they come from somewhere, though, like the famous like martyr or some shit like that. And like, oh, my mom's she's flashbacks from her mom, the entire mom's a martyr base. Basically, it was like the great grandmother. But yeah, yeah, I will sum this up right here. The thing that kills the bad guy.
00:31:59
Speaker
or banishes the bad guy or whatever the fuck. Spoiler, there's a bad guy in it, and it's a conjuring movie, so good has to win for half a minute. It's Liquid IV. They use Liquid IV, and if you go to liquidiv.com, use promo code haunted100, get 20% off anything for fucking to kill demons with. I don't know. Maybe that's what the peach fucking flavor is. It kills demons. That's what it is. Maybe.
00:32:28
Speaker
But it's formulaic as fuck. And that meant the way. It's just like, it took me two days to watch it. Oh, no. I might have been really, really tired when I started watching it yesterday. But put it this way, I know someone who is watching, I think they said like the third Twilight movie and I was watching none too. And I was jealous of their fucking movie.
00:32:58
Speaker
Oh man, I wish I could be watching Twilight three. I could've done that instead. I watched Twilight one this year. I need to watch Twilight two and three. Yeah. Well, I guess I would. I'll watch that instead of the none too. Fuck my as well, man. I'm so glad I didn't pay money for that. I have like a seven day free trial and paramount. Hey. Yeah. And I got to see how raise her again. The remake of hell razor. Not that great, by the way.
00:33:29
Speaker
Why are we remaking good things? What's really bad things? Well, I can't wait for the remake of None 2 then. Hope that comes soon. I do want to see the ending of None 2, which will be like the Ed and Lorraine story. The Warrens come back. Oh, they killed a nun. But I don't really get a sense of urgency. There's no
00:33:56
Speaker
There's no takeaway. There's, there's no, oh my gosh, oh my God, this bad thing's going to happen because time-wise the nun and the nun too happened years before we see conjuring. Like time-wise we already know what happens because the motherfucking nuns in the conjure, so therefore ergo motherfucking nothing fucking happens to the fucking numb demon.
00:34:20
Speaker
You know why? Because we've seen the fucking num-de-num in the future then. It's a Star Wars movie all over again. Like, oh, we know these fuckers die. How? We saw New Hope 30 years ago. We know they all die. Yeah, but I kind of liked that. I kind of liked it because it was like, it shows you their story. I liked that one.
00:34:45
Speaker
The difference is that was good writing, good acting, good directing, none doing any of that shit. Oh, okay. Just missing and missing. It's like, ah, the little boy saw a priest on fire, so let's steal from the priest that was just on fire or some shit. Oh, that guy we can't really remember from the nun one, he's back.
00:35:04
Speaker
But you also saw him back through the end of the rain thing. I don't fucking know. And then like, oh, that nun is back. But the other priest is gone. We couldn't afford him. So he's just dies or he's, I don't know, fucking the theory of where he dies from. And then they take her seriously. They don't take her seriously. There's a mother Teresa. There's a nun. There's another nuns is a lot of fucking nunneries.
00:35:29
Speaker
That's all we have. None are using a lot of nuns. Do they ever have like a sing battle or like go and clean up like inner city graffiti? That would be more interesting. If this was Sister Act 4 in the Conjuring universe, I would watch the shit out of that one. I would say whoop Goldberg as Mother Superior. Oh my God. That would be so fucking funny.
00:35:58
Speaker
Don't kick some ass. And then the nun is rapping because the nun has to rap. And then. Roller gator. That one move and like break dancing where they're on their back and spinning. Like, there's always that. Yeah. If any of that should happen. It would be amazing. It was parts bad parts tone deaf as fuck. They put a black woman in jail.
00:36:28
Speaker
Really? That's the person you chained across her neck? The black woman? Thanks. That's no good. Yeah, I'm like, oh, they didn't think that one through. Or maybe they did. They just wanted that fucking catchphrase on it. I don't know. And there's no reason for the new nun at all. It's the streetwise nun. Oh my God, does the nun take me in hand too?
00:36:55
Speaker
I think this one, no, honestly, I think this one's from Detroit. They have one nun. I could be wrong. Again, I watched over two days. I could be wrong. I think she starts off as a person from Detroit. Just stay in Detroit. I will let you guess the color of that nun. Yeah. To be fair, we have a thriving African-American and Black community over here.
00:37:25
Speaker
Which is amazing. Who all want to be nuns. Apparently all want to be nuns. The ship's route to Italy. Look, if somebody says, Hey, do you want to come to Italy? You go. Get in the van. We got some candy for you. Cause there's Italian food. It's delicious.
00:37:45
Speaker
No, save yourself some time skip the none too. I'm not even it's probably CGI. I don't think any practical effects maybe but yeah, it's not interesting. There's no fucking you give it there fucking too. I get we get to because at least it's.
00:38:07
Speaker
It's not a Hannibal, I'll say Hannibal Holocaust. It's not Hannibal Holocaust. It's not the shittiest movie I've ever watched. Like it's just out of five. It's a D-minus. It's a solid D-minus.
00:38:24
Speaker
There's no redeeming qualities that are like, yay. It's like it's girl power sort of, but not really. And then at some point you just, there's a girl power. Yeah. Yeah. There's always a McGuffin in these kinds of movies.
00:38:45
Speaker
It wasn't that interesting. It was like, ah, let's see. Whatever. I'm giving it to two. That's my final answer. But we know what? We got Mad God, a movie so horrifying. We both watched it. Yeah. And it was. When did you watch it? When did you watch it? OK, I actually. Spoilers, I actually watch it as a screener for the other website that I write for sometimes.
00:39:15
Speaker
No. Yes. Good for you. And so they offered the screener. I like Phil Tippett. I'm like, I'm in. And what a wild ride. What a wild ride. Yeah. For those who don't know, Phil Tippett does a bunch of practical effects for almost every movie you ever liked, including Robocop.
00:39:40
Speaker
Star Wars, Star Wars, Robocop. Um, he did Jurassic park, which was a little bit of mix. And he's like, he's like one of the, the biggest names in, in special effects. Um, and this was his baby project. This was his baby 30 years.
00:40:02
Speaker
Yeah. I thought 20 as well. I said 24 and then the trailer says 30 on it. 30 years? Well, give or take. So it's been, I mean, this baby is old. This baby has a 401k. This baby's too old for Jim to date. Yeah.
00:40:23
Speaker
I don't know. I think the world was thinking it. It has been a long time in the making. I think you have to be in a certain
00:40:46
Speaker
the frame of mind to watch it. Um, yeah, it is experimental. It's very experimental. You don't, there's really not a lot of dialogue in it. Um, you really don't know kind of what's going on through a lot of it. There's like two words in it, I think, right? There's dialogue at the end with the guy when he, yeah, at the very end, but it's very minimal, very minimal.
00:41:15
Speaker
Um, and it's basically this assassin comes down from the clouds onto earth, which is now completely a hellscape, a hellscape of torture. Basically of tortured souls. Um, there's so much sadism and, and.
00:41:45
Speaker
Horrific things use he sees such horrific things and you see some horrific things and And it's basically trying to destroy that world and does he is he able to accomplish it? I Don't remember the anal you got to remind me of the anal I want me to remind you of anal well you see when the
00:42:13
Speaker
When a mommy or a daddy. Or both. It doesn't matter. Yeah. A daddy and a daddy and a mommy and a mommy. I don't remember that. I remember it eating something and then shitting it out. Yeah. One thing that was defecation. But if you ever seen The Wall and went, Oh, that's gross. This is not your movie.
00:42:38
Speaker
If you've seen the wall going, I can get higher, then this is definitely your movie. Like, oh, the wall's not bad, but I can get higher.
00:42:46
Speaker
Honestly, it's so much more visceral. It's so visceral. Because it's claymation. Yeah, that's what I want to say. The wall has a flesh and blood stops in between. They tell a story. This is straight claymation for an hour and a half, 85 minutes or something like that. Yeah, it's straight claymation. And again, there's really no dialogue.
00:43:11
Speaker
um and it's a hellscape and you feel everything and you see everything and it's like you can smell everything i mean like it's
00:43:21
Speaker
It's so visceral and beautiful though. At the same time, he puts so much artistry into it and so much talent and creativity. These monsters are horrific, but at the same point in the beginning scene, this is one of my favorite scenes is the traveler is coming down and there's these huge fossils of ammonites.
00:43:47
Speaker
And you see just his little light coming down in these giant fossils and you feel this. It's so immense and it's so beautiful and it's so beautifully done. Um, so again, it's like one of those movies you have to be ready for. You have to be like in that mood of like, okay, I'm going to see some fucked up shit, but it's going to be good. Go for the ride. This is the one I watched with the last drive-in.
00:44:14
Speaker
And that's why I think it was the second movie they did. It's been a while. So I honestly I think I saw it wrong to two a.m. And I'm not saying I was high, but some jets did pass by. I'm like, hey, just all you guys doing it fit. This is one of the movies I even think that and could be completely wrong. The last drive in people did say you might want to get really high for this.
00:44:42
Speaker
I mean, it will go either way. If you're the type that gets paranoid in your heart, do not do not. This is a drinking movie for me. Oh, okay. Not a getting high movie because I was doing both. That's my best on this shirt, man. I'll do both. It's definitely a movie that is going to be very immersive. Yes, it's going to be very immersive.
00:45:12
Speaker
If you're one of the people who gets high and says, I don't know if I'm going to shit my pants or throw this water bottle at someone, this ain't your movie. No. I think that was a quote from this week by the, that's so funny. It was a concert. I overheard that shit. It's true. But again, it's, I think it's one of those movies where, um, in the future we're going to go and look back at it and be like, wow, this was.
00:45:42
Speaker
ahead of its time. It's a fucking masterpiece, man. It is. That's the only way I can really just, I mean, obviously I already know what score, we'll probably both get, but it is an absolute, not having a leg cramp right now, it is an absolute massive, I need more liquid IV. You need more liquid IV. I need more ass flavor. No, you know what? Liquid IV came out with roofies.
00:46:07
Speaker
They have like a melatonin, taurine, or whatever the fuck is supposed to be. Like not taurine, uh, I don't know what the fucking thing is. Valerian. Something like that. You're like, put this in the drink. It makes you go to sleep. I'm like, I'm pretty sure it's a fucking roofie, right? Did you just, this is the flavor called pass out. Like, Oh, fuck. If it's, if it's you doing it to yourself and consenting,
00:46:33
Speaker
Hey, we're all adults. We need, we need to relax some nights. Liquid IV roof yourself that are better. I'm going to try this shit out. I'm actually going to try that shit out today and see if it actually works. Cause I'm kind of hyped up. I can't take melatonin cause it triggers my migraines, but you guys try taking creatine. Uh, no, but I'm on a sleeping pill now. So it works. Okay.
00:47:04
Speaker
non-habit-forming sleeping pill. Yeah, sure. Just like my painkillers are not habit-forming. Shut up. Because whoever wants to be in pain. I talk to doctors and they say these things. Yeah, the fucking said trauma doll wasn't habit-forming too. Yeah. But now look what I'm... Hey, hey, kids. Hey, welcome back to pill talk.
00:47:31
Speaker
It's like pillow talk, but different. No, but are you sure? Are you sure? Cause I think the habit is you just trying to get to sleep and then you, therefore you start equating that with sleep and you must take it to get some sleep. Well, that's what, well, you could do that with melatonin though. Oh, I don't know what the, you could associate melatonin with being, I mean, you could do that with anything.
00:47:56
Speaker
I drug tolerance. I was a drug addict since I was like, walking seven. Which you can read all about in Gen X. Surviving Gen X. Surviving Gen X. By Joe Sheptic. I don't know why he wrote a book about me, but fuck it. I guess he did. November 30th on Amazon. It's a book about the generation. Or as my PR people said, definitely not a Christmas book.
00:48:23
Speaker
No, not how we know thanksgiving. Yes Thank you. Even thanks to christ that he or not him. I think that's the thanksgiving one. Well, I think You know you you get the mad god you get the gen, you know surviving gen x you put them together I mean, that's you're gonna have a wild time. You're gonna have a wild ride Fucking go for it. I do believe mad god is
00:48:52
Speaker
If I wonder what kind of soundtrack you could put the mad God, like, you know, the Wizard of Oz with Darkseid and Moon. Because that would probably fucking that would make it. Oh, my God. That'd be pretty. That'd be pretty show. Yeah, I think we should get some fucking Pink Floyd out and we'll see which Pink Floyd is like 85 minutes. Yeah. Yeah. And just go for it and go for it. Create a new rumor about that.
00:49:22
Speaker
Division Bell, probably. Yeah, that's that's OK. When you call in next time, y'all call and tell us which Pink Floyd album you did to Mad God or none to. It don't matter. Whatever. Maybe it would be funny, too. It makes more sense. Honestly, guys, if you ever to watch none to liquid IV kills the fucking demon. Spoiler, I mean, not spoiler, I don't know.
00:49:51
Speaker
I can, I can imagine that. Or exercises, I guess. Yeah. And liquid IV jump jumping rope. Yeah.
00:50:00
Speaker
So, mad God, you claim nation. It is intense. You do have a mentally prepared for it. And I usually took mental depression as like, just get out of your mental state. But you really need to be able to take a bunch of body horror. It's gross. It pours. It's going to be tense and parts. Yeah. Bloody shit. Piss. Come whatever it is. It's got it.
00:50:26
Speaker
It's nihilism in 85 minutes. It's like, just a full nihilistic ride. And you have to, I mean, if you're in that mood of just like, fuck it, you know, like, absolutely, this movie is great. But if you're like, Oh, I need puppies and kittens, then it's not the movie for that moment. No, that that is what happened. Or no strays. Oh, motherfucker. We got to watch strays, yo.
00:50:56
Speaker
I've never seen it. Oh, Will Ferrell. Oh, my God. Yeah, yeah. Oh, that movie? That's horrible. It's horrible? It looked horrible. Did you see the same previews I did? Because they talk about buying people's dicks off. Yeah. And I was like. What's on the here? I'm like, that's early 2000s humor. I'm beyond that. I did write a book.
00:51:26
Speaker
Joe wrote a book, uh, surviving gen X, which is early nineties humor. If you don't mind. My squares squeaking, my chair's squeaking. I'm not high. I'm just tired. My chair. So if you see my chair squeak from the Buffy,
00:51:50
Speaker
vampire podcast. It's back now. Oh, is it not the, not the podcast. My chairs week. So you missed those chairs. Welcome, but mad God check it out. It's on shutter right now. Go to shorter.com. Put this code. Great stuff. We don't have this kind of code for that. We don't. So why should I be good? This is going to go for that haunted 100 and then go to short.com as you try to figure out their fucking sign on thing. You know what we didn't do?
00:52:19
Speaker
We didn't get Dooka-thoo-loose. For what? For Mad Dog? For Mad God, I mean. Mad God. Or Mad Dog. You can not say this. Mad God. By God. Mad God. It sounds like you're saying MAGA. Hamburger. A-B-Key. A-B-Key. Okay. So Mad God. I'm going to give it a 4.5. 4.5. I'm going to give it a 5.
00:52:48
Speaker
See, I'm surprised because you gave a shitty ass movie last time in 4.5. I think I think you think Jason X or Jason goes to hell. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. You're right. You're right. You're right. Five. You're right. You're right. I know if you're saying you went to that shit. I don't worry as well. I remember about last time we just did it.
00:53:06
Speaker
I think the only one, the only reason why I was not giving it that is because it was so visceral. I don't know. Like it is very nihilistic. You want it to be. Yeah, but yeah. And I think at the time I didn't realize that it was going to be so nihilistic and I was like, but I think if I had known going into it, like this is going to be a wild ride. It's going to be dark. It's going to be gross. And.
00:53:37
Speaker
you're going to love it. If I had known that a little bit more, but again, like he's just, he's got so much creativity and it's just, just such a beautiful movie. You know what? And you saw it straight through on a screener. Yeah. I got to see it on the last drive in and Joe Bob Briggs interview was Phil.
00:54:02
Speaker
And so I got my experience broken up in pieces, which might give me reprieves where you didn't have. I think you're right. You're absolutely right because I watched it straight through. Yeah, I think that would change your experience. Yeah. Yeah, I think so.
00:54:21
Speaker
It's like a machine note that versus pause. Right, right. A pause for humanitarian reasons. Yeah, because it's a lot to get through. So you might want to take like a, you know, let's go to the lobby break. Fucking walks, like a walk somewhere. Admission. No, not admission. What is it? What is it called? Intermission. Intermission. Yeah. Take an intermission, you know, watch some cat videos. Oh, absolutely. Fucking decompress from this. Decompress a little bit.
00:54:52
Speaker
But it's worth it. It's worth it. It's so good. It's beautiful. It's 85 minutes. It's okay. Let me see. 85 minutes. Pink Floyd album. Because I'm going to try this. I'm going to see. I'm going to look at this. I'm going to see. Okay. Let me see. Time official is six foot. I want to try to see what Pink Floyd album.
00:55:21
Speaker
will match up best of Mad God. And I'll see if I can do that as we probably will. But I do want to see the whole thing start to finish the end. Yeah. Without the job, Bob breaks breaks, because I think that's going to be a different experience that I have before. And maybe my score would change based upon. But I think, I don't know, it's it's hard. Like it's a lot coming at you, but
00:55:51
Speaker
I think it would have been good if I had taken a break, but I had just watched it straight through. It is very, in a way, overwhelming. Again, I'm not faulting it for that. That's part of the message, I think.
00:56:11
Speaker
but it's going to be a talk piece. This is not a popcorn film. This is not Jason. This is not a campy thing. This is going to be one of those where you're like, okay, I need to talk to somebody now and like talk to them about what I just saw. Yeah. And if you like talking to people, nothing likes talking to people more like liquid IV nighttime. That's right. Are you tired of working out and staying awake? Are you tired of,
00:56:39
Speaker
I ain't going to do the rest of it. Oh, you're not going to say the rest of it. Okay. Uh, something, something, look at ivy.com, hot to 100 promo code, 20% off anything, including a roofies. No, I don't. They're self medicated melatonin. Yeah. I mean, maybe you could, but
00:57:04
Speaker
You're not going to move from no one in Malatona. Sorry. The mountain you're going to have to fucking take is going to be obscene.
00:57:11
Speaker
So if you wanna chill out a bit, ooh, maybe I should chill out and go, oh my God, I like mellow out with this liquid IV nighttime stuff and watch Mad God to Pink Floyd. The wall's like 80 minutes long, division bell's like 66 minutes long. Unfortunately, Darkseid's only 40, Darkseid's 42 minutes. Really? Double that up maybe. You should double that up.
00:57:36
Speaker
Yeah, it has to be perfect. Wizard of Oz is gotta be more than 42 months long. Maybe it's like one side, one side too. I think you started at a certain point. Oh, that's what it is. It's already going. Yes. Ah, okay. I believe is the thing. That's how they do it. I haven't done it because I have a life, but. Fine. But if you want to try it out, let us know how it is. All of a sudden more. What's your plug box?
00:58:04
Speaker
Okay. My plug. I have a plug. Let me get the plug. Although I should have said this last week, but I didn't. So that's fine. Um, I know. I know. I know. I'm getting my, no, it's not stop. Is it surviving to the next cause I'll be cool too. No, it's, it's called wicked wicks sway company. And you go to www.burn wicked. So B U R N.
00:58:32
Speaker
W-I-C-K-E-D dot com. And they have candles that... It's promo code screaming demon. It's shut up. Screaming Siemens. Is that the promo code guy? No, this is somebody do. This is somebody different. Oh, so we don't have a promo code for this one? I don't have a promo code for this one. Oh man. But it is the holiday season and these are handmade candles with horror themes.
00:59:00
Speaker
I have summer slash in which is the Jason theme and it's smells so good. Bloody Mary. Smells like my hands. Smells so good. It just smells like it hit me. But they have, you know, some that are based on like, there's an Art the Clown one. There's, you know, things like based on. What does Art the Clown smell like? He's like a bum. Smells like a trash bag. It smells like candy apples. I don't know which Art the Clown movie you're watching, but.
00:59:31
Speaker
But I've gotten from them. I love them. Their candles last a long time and they smell really good. And of course,
00:59:40
Speaker
Like I said, they're into horror and Christmas is coming up. So if you like somebody who likes smelling good around the house and also horror, Wicked Wicks. Wait, no. What did I say? Oh, the cat's trying to climb up on me. I can't. The clap. The cat's trying to climb up on me. Burn wicked dot com. Burn wicked burn. And it's called Wicked Wicks. Burn wicked burn.
01:00:11
Speaker
And the cat is now completely on me. Um, I'm being buried alive. Help me. Well, that's not a bad thing. You don't want me to do. I would promote this book surviving gen X by this Joe chef check guy. It's not the way you think it's spelled. Yeah. How do you spell it again? So people know.
01:00:32
Speaker
S-U-R-V-I-V-I-N-G space G-E-N space X by J-O space S-Z-E-W-C-Z-Y-K. Go check it out November 30th on Amazon. You know what? There's going to be an e-book, a hardback, a paperback, and Audible coming soon, but the pre-order I believe
01:00:56
Speaker
Well, yeah, Joe's got me to read it. I used to, I actually got me to read it. Oh God. No, it's going to come out. I will speak a bit of a longer time, but pre-order it now on Kindle. I read the Kindle version of it. It's not bad on Kindle.
01:01:17
Speaker
For me, a book is it's because it's got graphic art in it. So, you know, kindle and graphic art don't always go together. But it's not bad on kindle. Awesome on paperback or hardback. But check it out. It's already been banned by some churches. So, you know, this just got because apparently you don't rape kids. Oh, wait, I didn't say the church is rape the kids. I just think you do. Where's my cousin? Here's the thing.
01:01:44
Speaker
They were doing a morality clause, like, ah. There we go. Like, you mean the same church as, like, raping people? Thinks my book is unmoral? Really? OK. Well, again, I asked- That makes sense. Rape's OK, apparently, but my shit's fine. Bad. What? What? It's not their image. Branch. What branch? And you said Catholic, and I said, oh, shit, no. They're not going to let you do nothing.
01:02:14
Speaker
