Pig Hill (2025) Breakdown: Big Pick D Energy Zero Lighting & You| Streamin’ Demons
0 Plays2 seconds ago
The movie that broke Amelie's internet (not in the good way) Jo and Amelie dive into the fresh-out-the-mud 2025 horror Pig Hill starring Shane West—and as far as Jo & Amelie can tell, the movie is secretly about Big Dick Pigs terrorizing a town of exactly seven supermodels. From pitch-black scenes you can’t see, mystery margaritas, a population shortage that would make Stephen King jealous, and an ending so obvious we called it before the title card—this episode is pure chaotic evil. We clock-watched, we cackled, we begged for one background extra. Come suffer with us. We’re Amazon Affiliates—any links we drop and you click/buy help feed your demons!

KEY MOMENTS
- Opening chaos – Jo declares: “This movie is about Big Dick Pigs” and we never recover
- “There’s literally nobody in this town” – Population count: seven gorgeous humans, zero extras
- The Mystery of the Third Margarita – Ignoring plot to solve the real horror: whose giant drink is this??
- Jo calls the entire ending in under five minutes (Amelie needed four)
- WTF moment – People get shot in the face and we still have no idea who they are
- Theater walk-out verdict – Simultaneous “we’re leaving” energy, Big Dick Pigs or not

Jo
the area.
00:01:31
Jo
Jesus Christ, here you are. See, Charlie, you're not the only one with this thing. We both have the same demon. As a tenth woman goes missing, Carrie can't stop thinking about there could be something more to these stories. I don't know if I'm having a hard time because we've been at this for like four or five hours, or am I having a hard time because the copy's bad, or I just can't read the date? I don't know.
00:01:54
Jo
But is that a fair synopsis? Like, pig people, Carrie, Carrie looking for them, the end, more or less?
00:02:03
Amelie
Beginning? Yes.
00:02:04
Jo
Yeah, the beginning. Yeah, i think that is I think that's accurate. at the the beginning and the beginning, that's correct. What we kind of notice watching this movie is, holy shit, I don't know if my reading that IMDb had more emotional and charged than most of the acting this movie, or holy shit, did no one pay light bills?
00:02:34
Jo
It's dark.
00:02:34
Amelie
It's so dark.
00:02:37
Jo
It is so dark.
00:02:38
Amelie
Like we often criticize the way it's film, cut, the music, the darkness, if there is too much light, etc. And sometimes we like to debate.
00:02:51
Amelie
There is one scene where they're in the bedroom. I'm like, no, I've got the same night. It's dark. She just woke up from a dream. It's dark. It's fine. And then there is another scene. I'm like, why is it dark?
00:03:01
Jo
Still dark.
00:03:02
Amelie
It's it's it's daylight. Like we have scene, daylight and it's dark.
00:03:05
Jo
Still dark.
00:03:07
Amelie
And it's ridiculously dark. Like it's always dark.
00:03:10
Jo
The bar, dark. Outside, dark.
00:03:13
Amelie
It's like they live in a nightclub, but dark.
00:03:16
Jo
Yeah. and And there's like, okay, I will name you every fucking person who lives in this fucking town. We've got the brother, the sister, the a new boyfriend-y guy from out of town played by Shane West,
00:03:35
Jo
We've got, so that's three people, the homeless guy, four, the owner of the shop, we see a half fucking second for five, the sheriff who does jack and shit besides giveaway exposition and like just, here, you want to know about this case file, honey? Let me go get this case file and just hand it over to you. I'm pretty sure that's legal.
00:03:55
Amelie
and eat kekewet.
00:03:55
Jo
That's six. Yeah. And then the bartender, seven. There's no one else in this fucking town at fuck all. I'm not including the pig farm because that's off the fucking res.
00:04:07
Jo
There's no one
00:04:07
Amelie
All
Plot and Dialogue Criticism
00:04:07
Jo
else.
00:04:07
Amelie
very beautiful.
00:04:07
Jo
That should be the horror movie.
00:04:09
Amelie
They're all very beautiful.
00:04:12
Amelie
Top model.
00:04:12
Jo
And they're gorgeous.
00:04:13
Jo
Even the homeless guy is like a model.
00:04:13
Amelie
Yes.
00:04:16
Jo
The pig farmer was definitely a model. like Everyone's got like, oh this is my set guard. I just got off a GQ shoot today. I'm a pig farmer today. Okay, what am I supposed to do? Everyone's got great teeth no matter what condition they're supposed to be in.
00:04:30
Jo
you know It's like, come on. But the lack of people, it must be is could be the fucking mist. It could be remake of Stephen King's The Mist and he's like, oh, there's no people outside because they're all dead.
00:04:42
Jo
No, no. He's going to afford extras or something. I don't know. don't fucking know.
00:04:45
Amelie
You don't see anyone, for example, there is scene in the bar, there is no one in the bar.
00:04:49
Jo
There's no one in the bar.
00:04:50
Amelie
You, on the street, there is no one on the street, like daylight, you know, or there is nobody walking down to get the rest, nothing, nothing.
00:04:54
Jo
Yeah.
00:05:01
Jo
There's nothing. At one point, the only person in the bar was the fucking guy at the bar. Not even the bartender was in the bar anymore. Not even the bartender at one point was in the bar.
00:05:10
Amelie
Yeah. Yeah.
00:05:13
Jo
was like, what bar is this?
00:05:13
Amelie
And the drinks, the drinks, they are sitting, they drink the small drink and there is a big drink.
00:05:17
Jo
Three fucking drinks.
00:05:19
Amelie
And and we were like focusing on the drink and they were talking about the plot, but we don't care. We want to know and understand the mystery of the drink.
00:05:28
Jo
Yeah. Why is there a third drink? there's There's one scene, again, this is not spoilers. We're not giving away, I don't think it was a plot point. I don't think it was a plot point. There was a scene there at a Mexican restaurant, I guess. I don't fucking know.
00:05:42
Jo
With the same lighting as everything else. It's basically candlelit. And they have a drink. And I didn't see his drink at first. It's basically Shane West and Rainy and Kweli is having a drink together.
00:05:56
Jo
And I saw her drink, a small little umbrella drink, and I saw this big margarita glass in the middle that's like full. And didn't see his drink. I'm like, oh, so he got a margarita. That's awkward. But sure, whatever. i mean, he's drinking what he wants to drink. Good for him.
00:06:11
Jo
No, he had his own fucking drink. And we we had a conversation like, are they sharing this drink together? Like, would like would you you and I share a fucking drink together? Maybe.
00:06:22
Jo
Right? But... we wouldn't also have our own drinks too.
00:06:28
Amelie
But for for example, let's say you and I, we go to a cocktail bar, right?
00:06:33
Amelie
And I'm like, I want to this drink and that drink. And we look at the drink you're like, oh, i wonder what kind of drink it is. Would you like to share?
00:06:33
Jo
Okay.
00:06:39
Jo
Right.
00:06:40
Amelie
Yes. But we don't see that.
00:06:41
Jo
Right.
00:06:41
Amelie
We don't see them ordering the drink and say, hey, would you like to share that drink with me? Yeah, sure. Why not? And have a separate drink and have another drink maybe be for later to eat or to give it a go or I don't know.
00:06:53
Amelie
Like for example, the previous scene, they drink. And then they get a shot together.
00:06:57
Jo
Yeah.
00:06:59
Amelie
So you understand why they have shot, right?
00:07:00
Jo
Makes sense. Right.
00:07:02
Amelie
The dialogue. Dude, dialogue. She just met the dude and he asked so many questions about her husband instead of of just talking about their shared passion for murder mystery sci-fi.
00:07:15
Jo
Yeah.
00:07:16
Amelie
You know? So I'm like, yeah.
00:07:17
Jo
Yeah.
00:07:20
Amelie
Yeah.
00:07:20
Jo
I was writing that down. i was writing it down for pickup lines. Okay. Next time at bar with girl, I ask out, ask her about husband. Apparently that works. and Not, not how are you? Nothing like that. Like let's have a shared, you know, whatever common theme is.
00:07:38
Jo
Apparently the common theme is like, she's married to a guy that she hasn't seen for 13 months.
00:07:43
Amelie
So tell me about your husband, or how did you meet him, why you marry him? So it's not going to work very well with your husband? Why?
Technical Issues in Podcast and Movie
00:07:52
Amelie
no
00:07:53
Jo
And like, okay, so I thought she was new because it seems that Andy, played by Shane West again, was coming back to town, but she didn't know him.
00:08:05
Jo
But she also lived in the same town forever.
00:08:09
Jo
like That doesn't even make any... A lot of this plot just like, what the actual fuck AI monopoly. I'm not saying AI wrote this. But damn it, man.
00:08:17
Amelie
Yeah, so I'm going to defend that in the library.
00:08:18
Jo
I don't know what happened from the screenplay to the finished product.
00:08:22
Amelie
They have a little conversation.
00:08:22
Jo
I do know that Willy's Wonderland was done by Kevin Lewis. and Great one, but...
00:08:29
Jo
Go for it. Defend it.
00:08:31
Jo
See, Amelie's trying to defend it, but internet won't let her. That's how bad the defense is.
00:08:39
Amelie
Exactly, exactly.
00:08:39
Jo
If you are doing this and you're watching these movies now, now the internet's catching up, and you're watching these movies, the acting, i think I said around the 50-minute mark out of a, well, sorry, let's skip the whole thing.
00:08:40
Amelie
My defense is really bad.
00:08:56
Jo
I kind of skipped that part. An hour and 40 minutes. So around the 50-minute mark, the acting becomes okay. Becomes okay. and it kind of goes
00:09:10
Jo
It kind of goes down.
00:09:12
Jo
Yeah. So when you're watching this, and we do apologize for having technical difficulties with someone's internet, no, no names, Amelie, no names at all. So if this is the way you're experiencing our podcast right now with with poor internet, that's the entire fucking movie.
00:09:34
Jo
That is the entire movie. It's edits, it's jumps, it's jump edits.
00:09:37
Amelie
Yes.
00:09:38
Jo
At one point, i was like, why the fuck did she go to this place?
00:09:38
Amelie
Yes.
00:09:42
Jo
Omelie had to explain to me. And I was watching it because I couldn't hear the goddamn dialogue. I missed a half second of dialogue. i was like, oh, why did she go there?
00:09:50
Amelie
Yeah, because I speak like this all the time.
00:09:51
Jo
Like, what the fuck's happening? did it You know? Without spoilers, it's kind of like I couldn't follow the plot. Emily had to save me twice from this.
00:10:02
Jo
Right, and we get pop up alerts. So it might be a a big Joe thing. I'm late whenever you get your internet just like pop on in no big deal. But as we are discussing this movie.
00:10:11
Amelie
I can hear you, there is no problem. You're talking so well about the movie.
00:10:16
Jo
I'm not going to say, again, we're not going spoil it, but I'm going to guess the entire ending at the first three fucking minutes of the goddamn movie.
00:10:25
Jo
Right?
00:10:26
Amelie
Five minutes.
00:10:26
Jo
Yeah.
00:10:26
Amelie
It took me five minutes.
00:10:30
Jo
Yeah, without spoiling it. So how do...
00:10:35
Jo
At one point, we couldn't tell the brother away apart from the boyfriend. Honestly thought they were the same person for a while. And that because the actors look exactly alike, the lighting was so fucking bad, I actually couldn't tell them apart.
00:10:49
Jo
And I don't want to trash this movie. We can go on and trash this movie, but I'm not.
00:10:51
Amelie
Exactly. Yes, you're right.
00:10:55
Jo
IMDb gave this. If you really want to see who's voting on what in IMDb, check out the ratings on IMDb. Oh.
00:11:03
Jo
Well, there's a problem on your end. So yeah, go for it.
00:11:11
Jo
And technical difficulties again today. So some people give a 10.
00:11:15
Amelie
Yeah, the internet is a little bit slow.
00:11:16
Jo
It's obvious that people give a 10 or either in the fucking movie or they're in the movie.
00:11:21
Jo
Five minutes to figure out the the the ending.
00:11:22
Amelie
I wouldn't watch it in theatre.
00:11:25
Amelie
I wouldn't watch her in theatre.
00:11:26
Jo
And she's shaking her head, yes, go for it.
00:11:27
Amelie
I would watch her on TV.
00:11:31
Amelie
No, no, not at all.
00:11:31
Jo
So five minutes to figure out the endings. I can't have dead ear.
00:11:33
Amelie
dont built Don't, don't, don't, don't,
00:11:36
Jo
That is the first five minutes. That is basically car park doesn't even count type thing. If you're including the beginning of the car park, it takes five fucking minutes. And it don't go on from there, man. It don't go on from there. There's people who died in this movie. I don't know who the fuck they were.
00:11:54
Jo
There are legit moments where people are shot in the face and I have no idea who the fuck they are and nor do I care who they are.
Overall Sentiment and Conclusion
00:12:02
Jo
little bit deja vu now.
00:12:05
Jo
But we, yeah. And we're going to end it like this. we're Again, we're not going to do a whole 20 years. It's going be that big of of a podcast on it. This is Pig Hill 2025 is streaming. Check it out for yourself. But we usually, yeah.

00:12:36
Amelie
No, no, no, no, no. Yeah.
00:12:40
Jo
Amelie's thinking about it.
00:12:42
Jo
Me neither. Me neither. And during the movie, we both, yeah.
00:12:49
Jo
Yeah, it' it's basically if we were in a theater, we we kind of said it nearly the same time. we would just walk the fuck out. We would walk out.
00:12:59
Amelie
We would leave. We would leave.
00:13:00
Jo
The lighting is poor.
00:13:01
Amelie
The only interest of watching the movie was to be able to critic the movie while watching it.
00:13:02
Jo
the The editing is just chopped all over. The story looks like it went through a fucking blunder.
00:13:07
Amelie
Yes. Yes.
00:13:09
Jo
The acting is sometimes okay.
00:13:11
Amelie
