Introduction & Merchandise Talk
00:01:12
Speaker
What's up, everybody? We are back here at Morbid Curiosities with another episode for you guys. I am one of your hosts, Mercedes Martinez, and with me is the nefarious necromancer of nightmares himself,
00:01:28
Speaker
Nicholas Ewers. So we added a little bit more, I see, or I hear. Do you want to tell them why we added a little bit more to your name? Yeah, so we're trying to make ah ah some merchandise, right?
00:01:43
Speaker
That's what we're trying to do with this? Or like poster images at the very least of the morbid mistress of mayhem and the nefarious necromancer of nightmares? Was that the...
00:01:57
Speaker
Yeah. that one Yeah. And so and we're going to try to have like little mascots for each of the shirt designs. So that's something we're working on right now.
00:02:07
Speaker
We're not opposed to fan sourcing ideas. So if anyone is super artistic out there, we've thrown some stuff at the wall, but it would be interesting to see what, you know, one of you guys might be able to come up with, too. And we would like fully credit you guys and do everything. necessary and whatnot but yeah that's what we're up to with the nicknames i love what you said you're you're basically making it team edward or team jacob shirts which i laughed at so hard when you you sent that and i was like okay cool that that works like let's fucking go we'll see which one is who
00:02:50
Speaker
Yeah. And so, guys, go to our Instagram page at morbid underscore curiosities underscore pod and write in with any thoughts or feedback on these shirt ideas. And if that's something you'd be interested in, and what would you be interested in seeing on a shirt?
00:03:10
Speaker
Would it involve our names at all? Even should we just like put out the the mascot shirts without the morbid? Do do you hate us, but you love the nicknames? Are you here? Just you hear the nicknames and you turn it off immediately.
00:03:25
Speaker
You know, whatever feedback you guys got, it's welcome over here.
Movie Ideas and Audience Reactions
00:03:29
Speaker
And also, let us know what you think about this next film, Final Destination Bloodlines. Well, and before we get into that, I had a little bit of another side thing I kind of wanted to report back to you on. Oh, my bad. What's up?
00:03:43
Speaker
Okay, so we previously had announced a movie that we wanted to make on the podcast. Fans of the pod might know it was called Slaughterball.
00:03:54
Speaker
And then, if you keep up with us... Like a week after we released that episode, they announced a Monkey Paw production, basically their version of Slaughterball.
00:04:06
Speaker
It was called Him. I'm here to report back that I've seen Him and not that great. So I think we we still have a chance to make Slaughterball. I think we can still bring this movie to the big screen. And, you know, Him won't be the canonical sports horror movie like Slaughterball will.
00:04:28
Speaker
What was him again? Was it that basketball movie? or Not basketball. That one sports movie where...
00:04:36
Speaker
I don't know. saw a preview of it, right? or It's football. Football, yeah. yeah Sorry.
00:04:48
Speaker
That was good. um Shut um Shut up, Nick. It's a football horror movie. ah Marlon Wayans is in it. Yeah, okay. Yeah, it's not that great. but Well, actually, there was one guy in the audience who was loving the movie. like He was clapping at multiple parts.
00:05:10
Speaker
There was a reveal, and it was like super basic. like The most basic reveal, I think. and he I heard him gasp. He was like... out loud. And then when the movie and he started clapping again, and I think this may be someone who's never seen a movie before. It was a pretty weird movie to have all of that, that much of a reaction to.
00:05:35
Speaker
But yeah, I saw a guy in the bathroom wearing a Bears jersey who looked like he may never have been to a movie before. So I think it might have been that guy. There was only like five other people total in the movie.
00:05:48
Speaker
You know, imagine if the producers of films, they just send people out to random theaters to really hype it up for the crowd and hopefully get other people in the audience like interested in the movie.
00:06:02
Speaker
Why it would be that movie in that theater, I do not know. That was Jordan Peele himself hyping up his own production company's movie.
Review of Final Destination Bloodlines
00:06:11
Speaker
Probably, probably trying to be incognito himself, like Hawk Hogan and his family when they were incognito going to that one theme park.
00:06:19
Speaker
That would be pretty sweet. Shout out to Jordan Peele. We know you're a listener of the pod. Yeah. Yeah. Shout out to you. But anyway, not to derail the intro anymore.
00:06:33
Speaker
We've been talking about it for months now since we both saw it in theater, since you bailed on seeing Lilo and Stitch. Yeah. Why do you gotta keep throwing me under the bus like that?
00:06:44
Speaker
Because i was excited for you to see Lilo and Stitch and then you didn't see it. One of us had to see it and you didn't see it. and Well, I will watch Lilo and Stitch now and I will report back to you on it because I do want to see it. People are telling me it's great.
00:06:59
Speaker
I feel bad because I was supposed to go see it and then I didn't go see it because I wanted to see Final Destination Bloodlines. When you look at me, do you see Lilo and Stitch or do you see Final Destination Bloodlines?
00:07:13
Speaker
There's only one right there. Lilo and Stitch. You seem like you would vibe with Stitch. He seems like he'd be you'd be kind of cool with him. I really would be. And it's funny because the girl that wanted me to go see it with her, she actually calls me Stitch.
00:07:29
Speaker
Like one person was like talking about me and I guess she was like, I love Mercedes. She's my little stitch. She's like, wow, all the time. and really hates everyone but she can be cool I'm like okay I'm cool with you calling me that so yeah now she sends me like little stitch memes and i have the little voodoo doll from Lilo and Stitch on my arm oh nice see what yeah exactly that's why why is it weird that I picked Lilo and Stitch that you've also bashed like every final destination movie that we've covered I don't think you've liked most of them so Do you have to keep throwing me under the bus, man? Why?
00:08:10
Speaker
mer we have proof. We have like roughly eight hours of proof people can refer back to. No one's remembering what I said three, four, five episodes ago.
00:08:25
Speaker
Everybody's remembered. They're getting it tattooed on their bodies. That's how much they care about what you had to say about Final Destination. No, people are here to listen for you because you got all the facts. You got all the insight on all these films, all these movies, even all the directors and the actors.
00:08:45
Speaker
And I'm just here to be weird. I don't know. i Now I'm just I'm hung up on this Lilo and Stitch thing. oh Maybe we should have just reviewed that movie.
00:08:56
Speaker
with Okay. That could be a bonus episode. Yeah. Oh, man. I've seen a little bit of it. And that movie is a horror film in its own right.
00:09:08
Speaker
It's wild. Yeah. Damn. It's so wild. The choices that were made in that thing. Maybe we do do a little sidebar at the end of an episode. We go off off the rails.
00:09:21
Speaker
But we've kept the folks at home waiting for too long. This is a silly one. i like It's been a long week, folks. ah ah I kind of needed a little bit of this silliness going ah ah Same. the top.
00:09:38
Speaker
But yeah, we're covering, we're talking ah ah FDB, as the kids call it, Final Destination Bloodlines. Yeah, I mean, we're going to rank these at the end of this episode, so I'll try not to really spoil that, but...
00:09:53
Speaker
I mean, this movie's great. This movie's a blast. it's It works. The filmmakers behind this, I don't have their names in front of me, I apologize.
00:10:04
Speaker
But they really took the best lessons from this series and constructed ah ah one hell of a horror movie. And we're going to get into it. I won't spend too long lollygagging about my initial thoughts today.
00:10:19
Speaker
If you're listening to this, you've probably seen it. You probably love it too. It's probably your favorite of the series. Mercedes, what are your thoughts on Final Destination Bloodlines? How much do you hate this one?
00:10:31
Speaker
i actually don't hate this one. i like Yes, i thoroughly, thoroughly enjoyed this one, mainly because Ring of Fire was played in the intro.
00:10:44
Speaker
got Johnny Cash. That alone would have saved this movie for me if it sucked balls, but it didn't. And yeah. Let's take a moment for a round of applause.
00:10:58
Speaker
We finally hit one. It's been six movies, but we... You're such an ass. We finally landed on one that that satisfies the morbid mistress of mayhem.
00:11:10
Speaker
Hey, I like part three, though, and I said that. do. Part one and two are still good, but this one is Well, yeah. We'll talk. We'll get into the rankings. but well We might need to go to the Mad About Part 1 again. but Oh, my God.
00:11:27
Speaker
Are you going to put a round of applause, like, actually in the background like you did that one time? time? ah I didn't stop the podcast not to do it. Oh my God. Okay. Anyway, what are your thoughts on this film completely or we could just jump straight into it?
00:11:43
Speaker
Yeah, let's just jump straight into it. Let's go. The movie opens on some railroad tracks. That might be important later. Who knows? We'll get there. Then this like old school red car drives by. i should have written down the year. I'm going to guess the 1950s, right?
00:12:01
Speaker
It's like very 50s coded. Yeah, I think so. and so And it probably did say the year. I'm just bad at podcasting. but I mean, we both are. So the movie begins. It's basically like a this couple is going on a date to this opening of this Seattle Space Needle-esque building.
00:12:22
Speaker
Right from the beginning, things seem shaky. There's like a little kid who sucks that we're introduced to almost immediately. You're like, God, this kid is going to fuck everything up somehow.
00:12:35
Speaker
He automatically needed to die. Yeah, and I mean, yeah, we'll get to him. and what Well, actually, i mean, spoilers. Yeah, spoilers ahead for this movie. We didn't announce that.
00:12:50
Speaker
But, I mean, spoilers. This is a premonition, so this guy actually doesn't get his. And that makes me say, I want to see a movie about how this kid eventually gets his comeuppance you know We could do a movie about how all of these people died now, basically, based off of but this movie. but Space Needle, shit sketchy.
00:13:14
Speaker
There's a rickety elevator. They get all the way up to the top. and They're not allowed in. They're over capacity. This couple sneaks in. Great right?
00:13:25
Speaker
you know great idea right Sneak into a very... like but A building that looks unstable and make it way more overcapacity. I should also say this move this building was open early too. They mentioned that.
00:13:42
Speaker
Like five months early, right? Yeah. i mean yeah So what are you thinking going into all of this so far? like Before the cool music starts playing and you're like, oh, wait, this place ain't so bad.
00:13:57
Speaker
Well, I mean, the cool music played first and then they started with all the shit going down. oh But what was it? No, it was... It was funny because when I was looking at the Space Needle, I'm just thinking, who the fuck is going to have a nice romantic dinner there?
00:14:15
Speaker
And i mean, would you be comfortable having dinner up that high? If it's like the Seattle Space Needle or the one, I think there's one in Vancouver or somewhere in Canada, and it's like been open for a while, this thing is stable, we're sure it's stable, then I'll be like, okay, I'll give it a shot. But opening night, I'm not in a rush.
00:14:39
Speaker
I mean, I told this story on the podcast, and this is irresponsible as I'm saying it. I rode the rollercoaster Goliath at Six Flags the day that that opened. Probably not a good idea.
00:14:51
Speaker
i It's probably a bad idea to want to be the first person to do something like this. to like I want to be the first to do this thing that, I don't know. It's like, we you need to throw a couple human bodies at it first.
00:15:06
Speaker
but before I mean, you know how many people had to die before we could get to the moon? It's like... That's how we've handled it for years. Just throw bodies at it till it's fixed.
00:15:17
Speaker
You know, good reference point. ah Yeah. Let other people like test it out. Like, no, thank you. Yeah, i I wouldn't go up there. And just, I don't know, I like how everything was making this girl uneasy.
00:15:34
Speaker
And what's crazy too is now being able to watch films, I'm able to pick up on foreshadowing so much better than I ever was before. And I know these movies are really pushing it for you to think like, oh well...
00:15:51
Speaker
Look at these signs. Look at all of these little things that are going to happen. But I really like the foreshadowing of, you know, the couple, they go outside on the balcony and the guy proposes to his girlfriend and he can't like fit her ring on. and when I first watched it, I was like, OK, well, whatever, she's bloated or something.
00:16:17
Speaker
But then once you see the aftermath of it, i was like, fuck. Ow. So, yeah, it was it was uneasy to watch this intro scene. I won't lie.
00:16:28
Speaker
I already alluded to, but i was every time I watch this, and I've seen this so many times, i was just dancing right now, too. I like your little dance. The fucking, you make me want to shout.
00:16:38
Speaker
are wrote de do That whole, I'm like jumping. I'm right there. I'm like, yeah, i'll put me in that spot. I'll dance in the sky. but Get the fuck out of here. I stay on the ground.
00:16:53
Speaker
it's It's such a fun sequence. But yeah, when shit starts going crazy, i think it's like the glass shattering at first when they're all jumping up and down. God, that's yeah that's horrifying. The smashing into the thing as you're falling down just, oh man, it sucks. Especially if you survive that smash, it's like, oh, you get a little extra pain before you die.
00:17:18
Speaker
I got to say the most horrific thing I was I'm just mortified by this and I really realized it while watching this because it's something that I think the movie wants you to laugh at.
00:17:30
Speaker
And a lot of movies want you to laugh at this actually, but people being on fire while they're alive and running. This movie really indulges in that one.
00:17:41
Speaker
It follows her around and then she walks past like the fucking vent with gasoline being pumped in and blows up. Oh man, it's the worst. She just had it so bad.
00:17:58
Speaker
I noticed that. I'm like, damn, they're really focusing on this woman. Well, obviously walking a little fast, trying to run, but she's on fire. Why are we watching her for this long on fire? like She gets set on fire just by. like I think it's a chef whose oil just falls on her, and she just gets a little engulfed in flames real quick. I felt so bad for her.
00:18:22
Speaker
I felt bad for a lot of people, but... Mostly her, but yeah, a whole bunch of people died. There's like so layers to this intro because the people fall.
00:18:33
Speaker
Then there's the lady on fire and the explosion. And let me know if I'm skipping over everything. But then like a bunch of people, like I think Iris and like her husband, like her, her fiance now like falls to his death.
00:18:49
Speaker
Then she runs to a different part of the building. And at some point things shift. And then that the piano falls, it's like so crazy. This is such a wild opening sequence. I, it's horrifying. i had to watch it several times.
00:19:06
Speaker
Yeah, the part that, you know, the top of the needle is like, obviously breaking off, but it's at an angle and you have the this one woman who is on top of the window like the glass.
00:19:20
Speaker
And you're like, Alright, something's about to fall. And you're thinking it's maybe like the little charm thingy from the chandelier. But nope, it's the fucking piano itself. What a way to go. You get smashed by a piano and then you just fall to your death.
00:19:33
Speaker
The piano didn't kill you. Well, maybe the fall of the death or fall to your death will kill you. But yeah, what a way to fucking That whole thing was like really difficult to watch. Even the building falling apart where they're trying to take the stairs down because too many fucking people broke the damn elevator.
00:19:53
Speaker
do you think you can make that jump? Maybe. They were higher up. They had the high ground, much like Obi-Wan when he was facing Anakin in Star Wars Episode III, Revenge of the Sith.
00:20:04
Speaker
Yeah, because I know that. I thought you'd recognize it by the full title. No, not at all
Character Dynamics & Plot Developments
00:20:11
Speaker
not at all. You'd be like, oh, yeah, that one. Yeah. but Oh, yeah, that one. My bad. I'm sorry.
00:20:18
Speaker
So, yeah, I don't know. If I were higher up, maybe. Maybe I could make that jump. but Well, you're tall. That's why. I'm short, and it would not work.
00:20:29
Speaker
I don't test my jumping ability that often, but also, like, leg strength would have a lot to do with it. Like, you work out, so you probably have pretty strong legs.
00:20:39
Speaker
I don't think we test out how far we can jump that often. But my knees are jacked right now. are mine. So I don't think I can make it. Plus, I would try to test how far I could jump when I was little because they made us do those stupid tests in gym class.
00:20:56
Speaker
I fucking hated it because I did like the tiniest jump ever. But then everyone else who, of course, was taller than me, jumped farther than me. So way to make another short joke, Nick.
00:21:09
Speaker
Thanks. I didn't even say the word once. Anyway, Anyway, um so yeah, next part of the scene. Well, so yeah, this movie also really likes pennies.
00:21:24
Speaker
and Like, Death has a fascination with pennies in this one. This movie just does everything so much more competently than the rest of the franchise, I think. Like, the penny thing is so cool because a penny, too, I mean, monetarily, it's insignificant.
00:21:41
Speaker
Like, it's so insignificant to us in the world. We don't even, like, pick up pennies anymore and like size wise it's smaller it's smaller than a quarter it feels so insufficient but it has such significance in this world and it stems from like that shitty kid throwing it off the space needle during that like pretty beautiful proposal i thought it was a nice proposal It was.
00:22:08
Speaker
It gets like sucked into the vent, and then ah it ends up on the piano, basically, and it's spinning, spinning, spinning, and it just like lands. I love... just It's like a bit. It's so funny. As as horrific it is as it is, it's equally as funny, but the thing like...
00:22:27
Speaker
the penny gently falls and then the piano top just like aggressively slams closed and it like then another thing slams and then it aggressively slides and just falls on this one lady like that poor lady and then the piano crushes the kid and his teeth like that was the best part that was the best part seeing that and the fucking kids like running out laughing thinking that he made it no bitch you were about to die That was my first bullet point after Ring of Fire. and This kid needs to die. Yeah, it was pretty important to, I think, the filmmakers in the audience that this kid got his. Because, I mean, and him and that penny alone is, like, so significant. When Iris stops him from throwing that penny, I wrote down in my notes, like, she saves so many lives just by stopping that penny from being in the chain
00:23:24
Speaker
I mean, those people might have died, but at least they didn't have a penny or a piano thrown on them. Yeah. Before the premonition ends, this little boy and Iris are the last two to die.
00:23:37
Speaker
The boy dies last. That's a pretty important factor. And then... so that's not iris doesn't wake from the premonition then though that we see that later then it's uh stephanie it the premonition isn't a premonition in this one i almost forgot that but it's stephanie's reoccurring nightmare this is the best spin that any final destination sequel has taken on a final destination concept i think it's so cool and opens so many windows for what the movie will go on to do. I mean, what do you think about everything we're at so far?
00:24:16
Speaker
So, yeah, that took me by surprise that it wasn't Iris, you know, waking from her premonition. It was a girl, Stephanie, waking up from a nightmare.
00:24:27
Speaker
So at least that was like a fresh take on this. I don't know. I felt like and I'm not trying to be me. I felt like the girl who played Stephanie, Caitlin, Santa Juana, she...
00:24:45
Speaker
yeah She didn't sell it for me whenever she like was like having a freak out moment with her but their nightmare, even having the nightmare at night, you know in class.
00:24:59
Speaker
She didn't really sell it. But the fact that it was... you know a nightmare instead of a premonition that that was a cool way to like bring you into this and i was happy that they went back to again just focusing on one person seeing all the signs from death and not multiple people yeah this movie ignores a lot of the dumb shit that some of it the sequels do i do really enjoy the actress's performance who plays stephanie And I said really enjoy
00:25:31
Speaker
I think the supporting cast gets more to do. Stephanie is kind of ah her job but is a little thankless in this movie.
00:25:42
Speaker
She's there to look concerned, look sad, look worried, which I think her facial expression, she really does. And then she's there to uncover shit and deliver exposition The other characters really are painted with more color, I think, and they're way more ah easy to gravitate towards. I mean, Charlie, her brother, we're introduced to him, and he says one of the funniest jokes that got such a laugh in the theater that I saw it in, where he was like,
00:26:11
Speaker
so he's like i mean i have dreams all the time like last night i dreamt that a hot dog was eating me it was eating me ah ah he like takes a beat and it works so well and immediately you're hooked into his character and like their dad is a pretty like sweet and sympathetic dude like everything his wife leaving him like you really buy into at least like the first two characters were introduced to yeah I liked her brother a lot, Charlie. and I was wondering, okay what happened between them because
00:26:47
Speaker
There's clearly a rift in their relationship. like What happened? Who's at fault here? More than likely, it's her because she went away to school. and you know i was i was interested in figuring out what happened with them just based on his performance alone. and yeah I liked the dad a lot too because he was...
00:27:09
Speaker
He was just very welcoming when she walked in the door. And i feel like you don't see that with a lot of men. And then as we're slowly introduced to other characters, the one that I really liked was the guy named... guy Eric...
00:27:24
Speaker
I knew you were going to like Eric. Everybody liked Eric, though. Eric is like the best character. Eric and Bobby, they're like a duo later in the movie. And you're like, yeah, why isn't this a movie? Just Eric and Bobby hanging out like clerk style or something.
00:27:42
Speaker
Yeah, they were funny, and they were such a strange pair of brothers, but you can clearly see just the bond that they had with each other, especially Eric. like use It seemed like, did they ever say which one is older?
00:27:57
Speaker
Eric would be older, because they he would be the oldest, because they they thought he was going to die first in the chain of events. True. Okay, yeah. you can clearly see like the big brother type of like care for him, but also like being a dick at the same time. like He's always looking out for Bobby, but at the same time, like doesn't he like punch him in his sack at one point? Yeah, right before they go to the hospital to try to find Tony Todd, he punches him the sack. Tony Todd.
00:28:32
Speaker
I was so happy seeing him again. Yeah, this it was. He got an applause in my movie theater when he popped up. Mm-hmm. Everyone in the theater, they, like, literally gasped.
00:28:45
Speaker
I even gasped and was just some trying not to cry because I was just like, damn, you can see just, like, the physicality, like, how different he looks in this one compared to the other films.
00:29:00
Speaker
And any time would watch him in these films, I would just automatically think back to Candyman when he was in the parking lot, you know, just... hypnotizing Helen, like just trying to like entrance her and the way he was just standing there like hands behind his back. He got like his big ass coat on. He just looked larger than life in that moment. So seeing him in here and then thinking about that freaked me the fuck out.
00:29:27
Speaker
Yeah, I get the vibe that Tony Todd was a pretty tall man. i don't know his exact height. But Final Destination 5, he was pretty big in that one. He definitely has a presence, even though in this movie, I can only assume he looked as skinny as he did because of health reasons. He passed away before this movie was released in theaters.
00:29:54
Speaker
he still like you the larger than life is a good word choice he still looked like he towered over people and he looked huge and he still has that monstrous like low voice that ah ah everybody loves like it's still there like perfectly Because, you know, a lot of the times older actors will kind of like age out of their voice, especially like the three lead Star Wars actors. They all like aged into just very different sounding people.
00:30:32
Speaker
I love how everything from this film, you're able to reference it back to Star Wars. Yeah, I've. What's it called? Stephanie is having these premonitions and she wants to get in touch with her grandma Iris.
00:30:47
Speaker
She's like, ah ah where's the Iris's stuff? Oh, it's over at your cousin's house. So she goes over there to try to find it. And this is where we're introduced to Eric, Bobby. And then is it Julia?
00:31:01
Speaker
The other girl? I think so. Yeah, we're introduced to the three cousins and her aunt and uncle. And they all basically resent her because she's gone away for super long.
00:31:16
Speaker
And she's like desperately trying to get to Iris. Do you have anything else to say about the other characters we're introduced to? No, they were just like basic side characters. i liked all of their chemistry that they had together. You can clearly see that the three of them were close in relationship compared to how distant everyone was from Iris. Or not Iris. Crap.
00:31:41
Speaker
What's her name? Stephanie. So, yeah. But not too much to say about them until later, once they meet their fate. Yeah, so Stephanie basically goes on her way to find... To Iris. We get to Iris' house, and it's fortified in the craziest way. It doesn't seem safe, but she's apparently, like, trying to protect herself from death. The house doesn't seem safe at all. It seems like she built a death trap to live in.
00:32:09
Speaker
I'm surprised she's made it this far, but... She's made it this far and she's basically stopping death. Death, as we'll later come to know, has basically been going one by one, killing everybody who survived the Space Needle incident.
00:32:27
Speaker
And he's taken his sweet time. He really is just like, I don't know why he can't do them all at once. It's very weird. ah ah He just or just give everybody a fatal illness or something, you know,
00:32:42
Speaker
No, seriously, because even one of my bullet points, I was like, damn, death has fucked up sense of humor still because, yeah, just how Iris has her whole fucking bunker essentially just like barricading herself.
00:33:01
Speaker
Think of how horrible her life is and how paranoid she is because, you know, she's in there with Stephanie and clearly talking to death, but there's no one there. But she's talking as if she's talking to an entity itself. And then there was like a light that was like reflecting on a piece of string or a rope that was going to drop something. I don't remember that part exactly, but like...
00:33:29
Speaker
she throws something at the lamp to move it and i'm explaining this so badly but that way the uh that rope thing didn't break you can edit this out if you want to because it sounds so terrible but yeah just how paranoid she is imagine living with that every single day and then even at the end well Well, I won't jump to the end, but yeah, it, death has a fucked up sense of humor in these films.
00:33:58
Speaker
No, I agree. And the thing that's hanging from a rope, I think is like a plant. It's like, you need a plant that badly. Like, yeah And why death is just now figuring out how to use this. Like it's this part is a little ridiculous. I'll admit it's maybe the weakest part of the film. Everything with old Iris. She's kind of kooky. Yeah, it's it doesn't fully work for me.
00:34:26
Speaker
And then ah she basically and allows death to kill her in order to prove a point to Stephanie. That also seems like a bad idea. It's she gets like something through the face and she basically it's just so Stephanie will believe her. It's like so now death is going to come for
Humorous Death Sequences
00:34:47
Speaker
her. What if death came for Stephanie immediately and then no one was able to warn her? She should have like been like.
00:34:54
Speaker
go somewhere safe. I'm going to be dead in a little bit. I'll like call you or something and you'll hear me die on the phone. It's totally irresponsible. Just immediately passing death on to these people.
00:35:06
Speaker
Did you notice that in these films, the way majority of the people die is something either getting penetrated in their mouth, their head their head getting decapitated, half of their head getting decapitated? Because you know Iris gets like whatever stabbed in her face and fucks up her entire face, her jaw's like hanging off.
00:35:33
Speaker
Then in the first one, you have Billy, that piece of metal like slices his head and like right where his mouth opening is. That's where it like cut it off, I think.
00:35:45
Speaker
Even in part two, when that girl cat was in the van and that one fireman was trying to get her out and he like slams the door and her dumb ass like freaks out and like pushes herself back into that fucking pole that was like shoved into her, her chair. and Yeah. There's, there's a lot of head trauma in these films.
00:36:07
Speaker
Yeah. And I mean, I feel like it's an easier effect to do. I think maybe we might've mentioned that on terrifier as well. Just head related stuff, having a prosthetic head, you can mess up or, you In a lot of cases nowadays, CGI.
00:36:24
Speaker
I will say the jaw coming off is a thing that modern horror has really brought to a pretty fucked up place.
00:36:33
Speaker
Like Smile 2 has two pretty fucked up jaw coming off scenes. and then Fuck, really? Yeah. Yeah, it does. it's And one of them, it like shows it to you. I always forget that it's in there. And it's one of the most horrifying like five seconds, if even, of a horror movie I've seen in recent years. Smile 2 is very upsetting.
00:37:00
Speaker
It's like very punishing to its main character. And I kind of love the Smile movies for... Damn, I was looking for something to watch and that popped up and I still need to watch that.
00:37:13
Speaker
And now I'm a little nervous. here I'm going to watch it I'm going to watch it still, but I'm a little scared now. I highly recommend it. It's a dark movie, though. It's like I was rewatching it with my girlfriend about like a month ago and I was just like, fuck, it was right before bed. And I was just like, God, this is a rough watch before bed. That's where you really fucked up watching it before bedtime.
00:37:37
Speaker
It's so dark. I mean, i don't know if I said this on the pod, but i ah she knew I had to watch Terrifier for the podcast, and it was right before bed, and she was like, do you want to throw it on? I was like, and don't know if I need this in my head right right before I fall asleep.
00:37:51
Speaker
A clown sawing somebody in half. Exactly. Exactly. Especially if you were eating something like I was accidentally Yeah.
00:38:02
Speaker
But basically, so after that, it's, they're off to Iris's funeral and then their mom shows up at the funeral. I like, it took me, I've seen this movie a bunch actually. And it took me until this watch to actually nail down the family tree.
00:38:20
Speaker
Maybe it was easier for everybody else, but I was like, wait, who's what? And why is there a whole side family that's getting slaughtered before them? But, Piece it together like we had the uncle and this is the sister of the uncle that we've been seeing Stephanie and Charlie's mom.
00:38:38
Speaker
And yeah, they basically welcome her into the home and have a nice party with her, it seems. And we get some basically the start of our fun death shenanigans for this movie.
00:38:50
Speaker
It's they're like barbecuing basically. And there's a like glass shard Russian roulette going on. A glass shard ends up in ice and is getting passed around.
00:39:04
Speaker
I think, you know, another movie we covered, it was Curse of Chucky. i think did that well. This does it a bit better, I think, but too very good. I love a good Russian roulette thing. You don't think this did it better?
00:39:17
Speaker
No, I think Chucky did it better. like Everyone's about to eat their dinner, and then you got that little circle. You saw who was going to eat the dinner, the the poison, but like okay maybe that's why this one kind of did it better because you didn't know who actually had it, but still got to give it to a Curse of Chucky.
00:39:38
Speaker
Curse of Chucky did it in a more stylized type of way. This was just more fun, I'd say. Like Julia, if that is her real name, she like chokes on a bug and you think it's the glass.
00:39:54
Speaker
But not only is the glass shard Russian roulette going on, there's like a gas grill that Eric is trying to light and Bobby's bouncing up and down on a trampoline with a rake under it.
00:40:06
Speaker
I love the setups. And even on rewatch, I was like, oh, yeah, I know this ends in a lawnmower to the face. But how do we get there? ah ah It's so funny. And basically, i mean, do you of want to say anything?
00:40:24
Speaker
i could go over like the sequence of events unless you want to. No, that's fine. was just enjoying like all the little setups. Like, all right, well, going to see who's about to get their mouth sliced and diced open with this fucking shard of glass. And i was really, really hoping that one of them stabbed their foot on the rake with on the trampoline.
00:40:48
Speaker
But of course... That didn't happen. That would have been a cool way to go or not go, but just like get hurt. Wait, doesn't someone step on the glass? Doesn't like the uncle step on the glass?
00:41:00
Speaker
Yeah. So I don't, I don't remember if it was in Julia's glass, but like the glass ends up in the grass and the uncle steps on it.
00:41:12
Speaker
And as he steps on it, The mom had moved the rake from under the trampoline and set it off to the side. And then the rake falls over from where she set it and hits the button on the lawnmower, which a lawnmower with a button. I got to get this shit.
00:41:28
Speaker
Like, even though it does seem more dangerous, there's probably got to be some safety mechanisms behind it. I feel like it can't just be press the button and it goes like you got to hold something else down. It's got to be a two hand fucking job here.
00:41:45
Speaker
exactly just for safety reasons or maybe you have to like turn a key who knows but yeah the rake falls over and starts the lawnmower up and the lawnmower basically goes and shreds up the uncle's face and oh man it's funeral number two already you know Who did it better, Final Destination Bloodlines or Sinister for the lawnmower scene?
00:42:16
Speaker
who Oh, Sinister was scarier. Bloodlines was more... No, Sinister was more upsetting. Bloodlines was very well done and like super crazy, but Sinister was way more fucked up, I think.
00:42:38
Speaker
Yeah, just because you had the dreaded anticipation, like, what the fuck are we going to see? We know what we're going to see, but when are we going to see it? And it just took unnecessarily long to get to that point. And then once you do, you hear like a loud ass scream. And then, yeah, this one, it was funny. It was shitty to die like that, but it was funny. So, yeah, you got to give it to Sinister for that one.
00:43:04
Speaker
If I'm remembering correctly, I want to say The Happening also has a pretty fucked up lawnmower death. Am I wrong? i don't know. i have i don't I think I tried to see The Happening and I didn't finish it.
00:43:20
Speaker
That's an M. Night Shyamalan movie, right? Yeah. Yeah, I didn't finish that one. Fuck. That checks out. I don't know. It doesn't surprise me. It's not his best work.
00:43:32
Speaker
Oh, was like, wait, what? But I like most of his films. I just haven't seen that one. Or he did like another movie called Old something. just watched ah ah Old Quick plug, guys, go to YouTube and check out Movies with Bae.
00:43:49
Speaker
Yeah, me and my girlfriend did a commentary yesterday on M. Night Shyamalan's old. It'll be up on YouTube in a couple weeks. And we have Blair Witch 2016 up right now. We recorded a Jumanji one, but we're going to scrap it because she fell asleep like in the last 20 minutes.
00:44:06
Speaker
Hopefully she doesn't mind me saying that. But oh yeah, we got a good commentary old on old coming up. You haven't seen that one? I haven't, so don't know. Movie's fucking wild.
00:44:19
Speaker
Really? Okay, because I'm going to see it. That's one of his more ambitious movies, I think. And it is based on pre-existing material, I think. I want to say it's based on a graphic novel. I could be wrong.
00:44:31
Speaker
Even that being said, it's, I think, one of his most ambitious wild movies. It's not one of my favorites, but it's it's wild. Okay, okay. I'm going to have to watch that now because I keep seeing it on one of the streaming websites. I just haven't put it on.
00:44:47
Speaker
It's on Prime Video now with ads, but it was on HBO Max, I want to say, for like ever, and they just took it off. Damn. Okay. Well, I'll check it out. And I do got to check out like your guys' YouTube channel now because I saw that you put up the Blair Witch Project. I was like, yo, let's fucking go.
00:45:06
Speaker
I think you'll dig it. It's kind of
Reflections & Sequel Ideas
00:45:08
Speaker
fun. And yeah, I think you'll have fun with it, especially if you enjoy hearing. yeah i mean, you like making fun of me. So you get to hear someone else make fun of me, basically.
00:45:21
Speaker
I mean, I was going to ask this question, but I was holding it back. I was going to be like, does she troll you too? Like, no, let me not say that. Let me be nice. But okay, now I really got to listen to it.
00:45:33
Speaker
Yeah, the episode begins, the first words out of her mouth, she's like in the middle of making fun of me, I'm pretty sure. I love it. Okay, I gotta listen to it now. Yeah. Okay. Yeah. Listeners, go check that out.
00:45:45
Speaker
But so anyway, I think we'll start ah ah speed speeding through the rest of the movie because it's basically just kills and exposition from here on out.
00:45:55
Speaker
But Stephanie basically maps out the whole timeline from the initial premonition up to where they are now. And this is when it's revealed that. all of the other final destination movies have pretty much been a part of this whole death reclaiming everybody who died initially at the space needle.
00:46:14
Speaker
Those people had kids. We, as we said, death is very lazy. he just procrastinates and he took decades to get to everybody. And they started making babies. And he's like, fuck, I got to kill their babies too.
00:46:28
Speaker
As they've like all grown older, it's just very bad work on his part. But yeah, Anyway, ah yeah, so she basically lays this out to everybody and they're all like, fuck you.
00:46:42
Speaker
Our dad just died. Like you get out of here with you and your final. You sound like that movie Final Destination that came out in 2000. Like, what's up with this?
00:46:53
Speaker
Yeah. um I felt bad for her trying to you know convince everybody we're all about to die. But the fact that they were mourning her their dad's death, that's like okay it's understandable that their heads are all over the fucking place.
00:47:11
Speaker
Nothing that anyone else says is going to make sense to them. Nor will they fucking care either. But then... You just start seeing like, okay, little by little shit's going down with, what was it?
00:47:27
Speaker
I just said the guy's name and I can't remember it. Eric's like approaching death, hit that whole tattoo parlor scene was insane.
00:47:38
Speaker
Oh God, like... Would you ever get your tongue pierced? No, I don't think I would. i haven't known many guys to get their tongue pierced. like Not to say piercings are gender exclusive, so I've never really thought about getting it, but I would just have no desire to have something else going on in my mouth.
00:47:59
Speaker
Yeah, I knew a few guys that did that, but also more so women that do it. But no, that's the so then seeing it like being performed here, he's just like holding her tongue. It doesn't even look like it was centered.
00:48:17
Speaker
And then he's like pissed off at his boss because now he has to close. I would be fucking terrified if someone's about to put a needle through my body while he's in a bad mood right now.
00:48:29
Speaker
Get the fuck out of here with that. Nope, nope, nope. Stay away from mouth piercings like that. Yeah, he's got a lot of business going on while he's piercing that lady. And she looks so uncomfortable while he's pretty. It looks aggressive the way he's holding her tongue.
00:48:44
Speaker
oh man. And maybe you need to be that aggressive since it's a muscle that you're holding and fighting against. And is it the strongest muscle in the body, the tongue?
00:48:55
Speaker
Oh, I don't fucking know. Is it? i think it might I am a scientist, so I will say is the strongest muscle in the body. you You've heard it here at Morbid Curiosities, folks.
00:49:07
Speaker
Don't Google it. Just start telling people. no I was about to start Googling it now. Google google it. Google it first. Don't don't buy me ah ah my word. I'm not a scientist. Duh. I should have known this.
00:49:22
Speaker
the The jaw is our strongest muscle. and So I was wrong, listeners. You heard it here first. I was wrong. It's okay. I'm wrong plenty of times, and you throw me under the bus for that. So now we're even.
00:49:37
Speaker
i try not to I correct before the listeners aggressively correct. No, seriously. We, yeah. Thank you for that. Before everyone comes at us with the hate, the hate mail.
00:49:51
Speaker
But yeah, so Eric, yeah, he, his piercing gets caught in something. This whole scene is wild. I like how the shop owners like close up and he's like, you didn't say anything about closing. You didn't say anything about closing.
00:50:04
Speaker
It's a good moment. His death. I remember watching it in theaters. I was like, this death sucks. Like, it's a fiery death. I was ready for Eric to go. He didn't win me over yet.
00:50:16
Speaker
But what honestly, it was when I saw him walking up with that fire department shirt. and There's something about someone casually wearing a fire department shirt. I honestly like like them a little more. I'm like, oh, even though I know you're not a fireman, you're repping the fire department, your local local ah FDP.
00:50:35
Speaker
Yeah, I was wondering, too, like, why does he have that shirt on? I'm thinking, well, I mean, there was a fire. they did probably save him. he needed a T-shirt. Makes sense. Yeah, I don't know why he's wandering in the street with an orange juice, though.
00:50:51
Speaker
I was like, what is he doing? They almost like hit him with their car because they think he's dead. It was a nice fake out. ah We later get the reveal he was like a half kid with someone, a neighbor, a family, friends. So he what isn't blood related to the dad. So he's out of...
00:51:11
Speaker
the loop. So we don't have to worry about him dying. Eric is safe for the rest of the movie guys. Don't worry. Turn off the podcast here. If you were just checking in for Eric's safety and wellbeing, cause he's good from here on out. Well, we can tell you that.
00:51:29
Speaker
But yeah, Julia ends up getting it with a garbage truck. Have you seen, did you see the behind the scenes i think I sent you for this kill scene?
00:51:41
Speaker
Oh shit, I did not see it. What was it? It's so cool the way they did it. So there's like little slats as the fucking thing is closing and it is set to like form around her face.
00:51:55
Speaker
So her face basically stays there. the slats form around it and then they CGI her face exploding from there. You can look it up on YouTube. I think you can look up a couple of the ways. they I saw the lawnmower sequence actually on Instagram.
00:52:11
Speaker
It's like and very fun how like simple and cool these actual effects were before they added the CGI. But I thought this her death was like so unfortunate, but also pretty fun.
00:52:27
Speaker
What do you mean unfortunate? I hated her. She needed to die too. oh man, getting your face smashed in a garbage thing? Is this the third movie we've covered where that was a death? I know Child's Play 3 we covered it, and I feel like we covered it in another movie because I remember comparing it.
00:52:46
Speaker
I remember talking about how bad the Child's Play 3 was in comparison to another on the pod, but This, again, outdoes Child's Play 3's non-death scene.
00:52:58
Speaker
i mean I was going to ask that too. Okay, who did it better? Final Destination Bloodlines or Child's Play 3? But I'm like, no, because this one yeah clearly did it better. By miles. this like well Child's Play 3 doesn't even exist compared to this movie. True, true.
00:53:17
Speaker
I'm sure the box office would reflect on that too. This movie was a mega hit. I did a summer movie wager that I do every summer and I put this as a dark horse and it really fucked me not putting it in the top 10, but I didn't expect it.
00:53:31
Speaker
I didn't expect weapons to crack the top 10 of the summer either. Kind of fucked up. Guys, go see or order weapons. If you are waiting to watch it at home, it's such a great film.
00:53:43
Speaker
Yeah, it's on VOD. I'm waiting to buy it. I might get it. I've been really wanting to see it for a third time. Same. I really want to fucking watch that. Shout out to weapons. Good year for horror. Final destination, bloodlines and weapons. We're covering both in the same year.
00:54:00
Speaker
We're going to be doing another new one from this year. We'll tell you, wait till the end of the episode. We're going to tell you what it is, but I'm pretty excited about that, but great year for horror.
00:54:12
Speaker
But yeah, the, the setup to Julia's death, I thought was pretty fun too. They're walking and she's like, uh, that blade thing could fall over that leaf blower could blow leaves and the soccer ball could get kicked into your face and you die and basically all of that happens in the background but in a different way and that's what gets julie into a garbage can which gets her into the garbage truck uh i thought it was a well done sequence even though i don't think she deserved to have her face smashed I didn't like her character.
00:54:44
Speaker
So it was very amusing to see her fall in a garbage can and then get thrown into the fucking like garbage truck. That was great. It was difficult to watch her death scene just play out because I was like, fuck.
00:54:58
Speaker
How are they going to do this? And then just seeing all the CGI i just like squish her face. That was gross, but it was worth it. it Worth it in what way? Worth it to see her die or worth it for the spectacle?
00:55:13
Speaker
Both. Damn. yeah You're just player hatin'. We know this. like I'm always choosing violence in these films. We covered it in Child's Play 2. We're covering it here and we'll cover it in more movies to come.
00:55:29
Speaker
So this sparks, you know, we find out that Eric, why he wasn't the next in line. He's half-brother, technically. And they're basically like, okay, Bobby's next. We all need to protect Bobby. Everybody fucking loves Bobby. They're looking out for him and his nut allergy, which they see very well.
00:55:49
Speaker
But everyone's very concerned about his nut allergy. But... They go on a road trip in Stephanie and Charlie's mom's SUV or not SUV RV to go visit Tony Todd, the like little kid who survived. Yeah.
00:56:06
Speaker
He's the little kid who survived the beginning incident. And remind me, I have an idea for what a sequel to this could look like that I want to say at the end of the episode.
00:56:18
Speaker
But Yeah, we basically get all the Tony Todd stuff right here. It was a very nice send-off. He's going to go and live the best life that he could.
00:56:30
Speaker
Unfortunately, he doesn't have that much time because everybody in this group dies within 24 hours after having this conversation. I wonder how his death was going to be.
00:56:42
Speaker
Okay, well, I'll just kind of say it now since, I mean, I guess we're not spoiling anything for anybody. I feel I have an idea for what a Final Destination 7 could be.
00:56:53
Speaker
Tony Todd's already passed away, so I imagine you're probably not going to give him, like, a horrific death. and maybe write in that his character, he his character was already sick, I think. He got the same thing that Iris got because it's revealed that, or it said that he was friends with Iris and took care of her after she got sick.
00:57:16
Speaker
But he's sick with that same thing. So I imagine you give him an easy out. He dies from whatever sickness that may be, i don't know if they said it was cancer or something, but I imagine the next movie, you make it about Tony todd tony Todd's son.
00:57:36
Speaker
You say Tony Todd had a son, his dad just dies, and Tony Todd's son, it's a different kind of Final Destination movie. He's been so prepared for it because of his dad. He was born into this world knowing one day death was for sure going to come for him, and he has to stay prepared. And the last movie in this timeline is Tony Todd's son combating death, and it's not filled with it's not a character filled with fear. It's a vengeful character going after death.
00:58:08
Speaker
Okay, I could buy into that. Yeah. I don't know. i don't know how I would feel if they give Tony Todd a son in this universe. Like, I don't know. They can't have, i don't know. It would feel like scream all over again. and I don't think I can vibe with it.
00:58:28
Speaker
I feel like this would make more sense because it's, it's just a guy who had a kid But still, it's... It's not like he's passing on, like... It's not Captain America having a kid, and it's like he's the chosen one. It's just a ah guy... he Maybe he wanted to have kid.
00:58:47
Speaker
You're going to rob him of being a dad, Mercedes? What if that was his character's dream, was to be a father? I don't think he wanted to be a father. he was being, like...
00:59:00
Speaker
a creepy guy in all of these films, the best character in all these films. He was a dad at heart. I believe that he always wanted to be a dad. Watching Final Destination 2 when talking with Kim.
00:59:16
Speaker
love how optimistic. how optimistic you are about these characters and you know you're trying to give them like a very thoughtful backstory and i'm just over here like nah this motherfucker needs to die this guy needs to die she needs to die because i hate her face i didn't think tony todd had to die in real life or in this film or in this universe but yeah nah he he was a solo man through and through in this in this world uh we'll see we'll see what final destination seven looks like maybe the writers are listening and they're like wait that's a good idea and we just broke them out of writer's block and hey you guys can feel free to give me a story by credit if that's the case i'll take whatever the payment is for that gladly
01:00:07
Speaker
Guys listening, don't forget to rate us five stars on Spotify and Apple Podcasts. Let us know what you think Final Destination 7 is going to be like as well.
01:00:18
Speaker
Hell yeah. So these guys are basically, you know, after they're done talking to Tony Todd, Eric is like, all right, Bobby, we got to kill you. We're going to use peanuts to kill you. And they're fucking around at a vending machine.
01:00:33
Speaker
They're trying to tip it over. I do like that. Bobby's like, I'm not going out on some unsalted bitches. I'm going and he points for the he points at this universe's version of Reese's and I used that as a way to tell my girlfriend that Reese's are the superior candy I'm like even the guy with the nut allergy you go out on the Reese's not a Snickers but that's a battle for another day But at least you just admitted that that is the superior candy and that raisins suck. No, raisins don't suck.
01:01:05
Speaker
Raisins are better than Snickers, too. Get the fuck out of here. You need to take that back right now. Yeah, I'm not a fan of Snickers. and got say Who's not a fan of Snickers? Those are good. This guy, I'm not a big fan. I'm not a big fan of caramel in general.
01:01:22
Speaker
I think I like caramel just because it's like a little bittersweet memory for me. My mom would always buy like the box of chocolate turtles.
01:01:33
Speaker
So they'd have like the little caramel pieces in there. And I would just steal them from her and eat all of those myself. They'd get stuck in my teeth, but I loved them. So that's probably why I like caramel so much. That's very nice.
01:01:47
Speaker
The people out there in the world who like raisins. i don't know, man. i don't know about you guys. I think it's pretty popular, especially amongst children and old people. that's More so the elderly.
01:02:00
Speaker
so Children, too. And they're a pretty important demographic. Children are the reason Lilo and Stitch number one at the box office. Yeah. Yeah, I guess so. I guess.
01:02:11
Speaker
Anyway, I like the tangents we're going on, little sidebars. But Eric and Bobby decide to go messing around at the hospital. i already said all that.
01:02:23
Speaker
So they pick Reese's. He's like, I'm going to eat this Reese's and die on it. And at some point, this MRI machine gets cranked on. I thought this MRI sequence was maybe the best in the movie. It's so fucked up.
01:02:36
Speaker
It's so fun. The audience I was seeing this with went wild. And I fucking knew ah Everyone fucking knew. Eric was going to be fucked in that like, okay, his nose piercing is going to come off.
01:02:51
Speaker
His earrings are going to come off. We know damn well everything else that's going to come off and just him getting like sucked into the um MRI machine. My God, that was, that was pretty horrifying to watch.
01:03:06
Speaker
Yeah, it I felt so bad for him. His piercings getting ripped off, it hurt me. I don't even really have piercings anymore, and it hurt me to see all of that. Nipple piercings getting ripped out of you seem so horrifying. And then the dick piercing, too. It's like, oh my god, dude.
01:03:27
Speaker
But... A wheelchair sends him flying into the MRI machine and he basically gets smashed all the way in. It stabs through him.
01:03:39
Speaker
It's really awful. And then Bobby gets the spring from the vending machine through his head and the spring is like turning and turning. So even Eric wasn't safe, unfortunately.
01:03:54
Speaker
Yeah, and I like how after that scene ended, the mom, Charlie, and why I keep forgetting her name? Stephanie.
01:04:06
Speaker
Stephanie with an F and an I. Yeah, they were outside and Charlie was like, well, why did Eric die if he's not like in our bloodline, basically?
01:04:19
Speaker
And Stephanie repeats what Tony Todd said. he's not in final destination bloodlines. Exactly. um And Stephanie repeated what Tony Todd said and was like, oh, if you fuck with death, fuck. I forgot the actual line, but like, you know. Something about Mac Daddies.
01:04:37
Speaker
What? Yeah. Okay, please. Say the entire line now. You don't want to fuck with that Mac Daddy. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's right. Wait, no. I think he said that in one of the other films, though. The first one.
01:04:51
Speaker
Oh, duh. Yeah. Wow. See, this is why you're here and why you lead the podcast. And I'm just like the side character. here You did the intro today. What do you mean? But you do the intro for all the other ones and you got all the facts down.
01:05:05
Speaker
and Not all the time. I didn't know what the strongest muscle in the body was. So that's up for debate. The one thing that you got wrong. I'm trying to give you props here, man. Fucking take it. I'm not taking it. I'm not accepting it this time.
01:05:19
Speaker
that's so That's so bogus. I see how it is now. I mean, yeah, what did you you think about all that all that good hospital stuff? I liked it. I like how silly it was because the brothers, like, while Eric is trying to tell Bobby, okay, this is what we're going to do, and they're trying to figure out, like, okay, well, if you take someone's life and you get all their life or all their like,
01:05:45
Speaker
then they show a scene where they're looking at like the nursery room with all the little babies that were just born. And they're just like, no, no, but they're thinking about it. So I thought that was a little dark humor there.
01:05:58
Speaker
And just seeing how like, Their plan fucking failed miserably. It was so bad. I was like, damn, this guy is about to die. least he's going out eating a Reese's cup, but he's going to come back to life and at least he'll be able to enjoy fact that he was able to try a Reese's cup at least once in his life.
01:06:18
Speaker
But then they both die in a very brutal way. Damn, Reese's cups can be the death of people, but they are the best candy out there. This is also, too, I think, where they mention Kim. They say her full full name. They mention that she broke out of death cycle. I was like, I was so right. I told Mercedes.
01:06:40
Speaker
Shut up. I was right and she was wrong. I'm kidding. wow Wow. No, you weren't. I felt that in my soul. Wow. I think I'm branded from that.
01:06:52
Speaker
so I mean, I was just wrong on this episode earlier today. so No, no, it's okay. You want to just throw it in my face. It's all good. So we're down to Charlie, Stephanie, and mom. Good old mom.
01:07:06
Speaker
And she's basically like, I'm going to bite the bullet. We can go to Iris's house. I'll live there. And ah ah death will not come for anybody until I die.
01:07:18
Speaker
That goes poorly. I don't remember exactly what happens, but the house like explodes. And death, like I think, had the oven going or something. But the house explodes.
01:07:29
Speaker
the rv Stephanie's in the RV. It tips over into a bunch of water. The mom becomes Two-Face for a little bit. I thought that was pretty nice. This movie's a part of the Batman universe. It was about time we got a woman as Two-Face. I've been clamoring it for all these years.
01:07:47
Speaker
I love it. Woman Two-Face, Two Woman Face, whatever her name would be. She saves Charlie real quick because like a burning tree is on him or something. And I like that she's... have it written down.
01:08:00
Speaker
She says, I'm going to stay along as long as I... And then, boom, a pole smashes right into her and she's dead. i I thought that was pretty a pretty wild choice for the movie. like Because they mourn for her after it happens. But to give her such a ridiculous death, I was like, that's such a fun, weird choice for the movie to make. I didn't know.
01:08:26
Speaker
I thought it was great. I remember my theater, like I heard somebody like gasp when their mom died. when their mom died You would think she would have had like more of a a basic kill or something. But yeah, I did find that really funny. And I felt like a dick because I was laughing too hard at it. But i mean, i think it was meant to be laughed at.
01:08:50
Speaker
I don't know. I like all the death scenes in here. i mean, this movie... I do enjoy every death scene too, but this movie, so I will say this end sequence is the best, I think out of any of the final destination movies. I had heard someone on a podcast recently saying the end is pretty messy and it's not that great. And I was going into this rewatch with that in my head and rewatching it, uh, right before, we recorded, I like put on the ending real quick and,
01:09:19
Speaker
I was like, it's not bad. It's, I think, the most exciting of all of the movie's endings, I think. I mean, how do you feel about that?
01:09:30
Speaker
You saying that, I agree. Just because I feel like a lot of the other movies, they fell flat with their endings. Or, you know, they, i don't know, left us on like a crappy cliffhanger.
01:09:46
Speaker
But this one, you know, it kind of... seals it all in like all right they're about to die and they actually show them die they don't kind of like cop out at the end you do see both of them fucking get annihilated so i did like the ending of this You know, I'm glad I allow myself to form my own opinions with stuff because I was listening to that podcast driving home today.
01:10:10
Speaker
and when they were talking about the ending, I was like, yeah, these movies do have bad endings. And I didn't quite remember how this one ended because I had rewatched this movie last week. I didn't get to watch it like as close to the day of the podcast.
01:10:25
Speaker
So I was just like, let me just rewatch that ending again. I was like... Those guys are wrong. I think this is a pretty well done ending. I enjoyed it. It is that comedy beat of the mom getting killed. And then the brother, he like pulls out his like switchblade gets stuck in his finger. Oh man. I hated that part. It was rough, but I felt like that was supposed to be a little funny too.
01:10:49
Speaker
I cringed at that more than I could laugh at that. I was mad, though, because I was like, you should just fucking let your sister die because he's clearly trying to help her like get out of her seatbelt while she's drowning at the same time. And her dumbass is like pulling on his head, and his hair, whatever, and like clearly making it harder for him. Bitch, let him do his thing. I know you're drowning, but nah, she deserved to die just because of that.
01:11:17
Speaker
Honestly, they should just kill somebody and take their the time that they have. like It seems so much easier than all of this shit that they're going through. Not saying i endorse the act of murder. I definitely don't know. It sounds like you do. 100% don't. But the...
01:11:38
Speaker
but the it just within the context of these movies, it's like, okay, shit's exploding. You're like drowning. It's like, I don't know.
01:11:50
Speaker
Fucking, it just seems like a lot to deal with, but Stephanie basically like drowns or so they say. And, uh, Charlie comes and revives her and tells her that their mom died and, They actually cry. They take a moment to mourn, which I thought was pretty nice.
01:12:10
Speaker
And then basically after that, it cuts to, I don't know what the time jump is. it could be six years from now. I don't even know. But there's a time jump. And what is the sun going to like prom?
01:12:24
Speaker
What is going on at the end of this movie? Yeah, he's going to prom, I guess. He asks this one girl that he likes, and the dad and Stephanie are there just to kind of like watch him off. Everyone's there taking pictures, whatever.
01:12:40
Speaker
And you see his girlfriend come out, Well, wait, I think her dad came out first and I guess he's a doctor. Yeah. and Yeah. And then like he was saying, oh, yeah, I heard he was the lifesaver or whatever.
01:12:56
Speaker
and Stephanie chimes in like, yeah, you know, he brought me back from the dead. And then there's the whole. Nah, not really. yeah and Yeah. I was wondering how of's this guy was wondering how they were going to like find a way to twist this at the end after they did that because I was like, alright, well, she's dead.
01:13:19
Speaker
Got her ass breathing again. Cool. Now what's going to happen next? like What are they going to do to fuck this shit up? so To hear that explanation, I was like, damn. Fucking death and his damn sense of humor.
01:13:32
Speaker
Yeah, the guy's like, well, technically you were unconscious and he just got you back to being conscious again. And it's funny. So my girlfriend's a nurse and the whole time watching it when he was talking, she's like, mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm.
01:13:48
Speaker
Yeah, exactly. And I'm like, okay, I get it. I love it. You know how science works. You probably knew the jaw was the strongest muscle in the body. She probably does and is going to make fun of us for that.
01:14:02
Speaker
Yeah. Good for you. no
01:14:08
Speaker
I'm just kidding, babe, if you're listening to this. But yeah, I thought that was pretty entertaining. And then... I think it might be the next shot after the doctor is a big Debbie Downer and they're like, wait, so you didn't die?
01:14:25
Speaker
Yeah. We get the shot of the train tracks from the very beginning. I'm pretty sure it's the same set of tracks that were at the beginning. So we get the shot of train tracks and this old lady is like buying lemonade at a lemonade stand and drops a penny And according to Google, that's the same penny that was from the beginning of the movie.
01:14:47
Speaker
But I thought Iris had that taped up in her book. So I don't know if that's actually true, where that comes from. Listeners, if you know, write in. But I could have sworn I saw Iris's book had the penny from the beginning taped up in it.
01:15:02
Speaker
I think it fell out of the book. It did some point. Yeah, it fell out of the book at some point because it's like, you know, making its way downtown. And then the old lady at the hospital grabbed it.
01:15:15
Speaker
And then, yeah. And then I guess that was when she was buying like the lemonade and shit. And then the penny like wreaks havoc on the town again. Wow. I didn't even pick up on that. And I've seen this movie probably five or six times. I've seen this movie a lot and it's kind of surprising. I i enjoy it though. It's become kind of a comfort watch. It's something I just throw on while I'm like doing chores now.
01:15:40
Speaker
I dig it. I dig it. Yeah, I like it a lot. But it's a very charming movie. very Very lovely. I like that meme where it was like a girl puts a comfort movie on and it's like a bunch of fucking horror movies. And it's like, well, yeah, duh.
01:15:59
Speaker
I'm that girl. I could see that. I could see that. Yeah. But so I like the scene more now that it's the same Penny. Thanks for bringing that bit of info there.
01:16:10
Speaker
But the Penny goes and gets stuck in the track and the track isn't able to shift in the way that it's supposed to. And they're like realizing like, wait, what?
01:16:21
Speaker
ah ah you didn't die and the train derails and this train starts smashing through this town everybody must be died hundreds of people must be killed in this train derailing because it looks like it's taking down the houses all like their dad is dead that doctor is dead everybody is dead basically but i do like the train stopping and for a second i was like Oh, is the movie going to let these characters off the hook?
01:16:48
Speaker
But it it doesn't. And I mean, I still don't know how I feel about the last shot being like comical CGI logs coming and smashing them.
01:17:00
Speaker
i'm I don't fully know how I feel about that ending. I don't quite love it. And it goes back to like the last episode. I think I was saying, you just want to see somebody make it out of this thing.
01:17:13
Speaker
No, I was happy that they both died. I like Charlie. Yeah, I like the brother. I do. But i found this death scene to be hilarious. So I was like, okay, I can i can deal with this ending. And in a way, it's not a cliffhanger. So it's like, all right, well, death, you know, finish the job.
01:17:35
Speaker
And, you know, he understood the assignment here. So I liked it. I enjoyed it it's a bit too cute for me i think it's too close to iris and the way she died and i mean the mom's death i guess it being comical worked for me it was just a little too cute for me i could see that but i don't know overall i think that ending like it was cool I don't know. like when the characters survive. I like the ending of Final Destination 2 maybe not the most, but it's the most pleasant because they make it out.
01:18:13
Speaker
You just like the feeling of hope when I like the feeling of chaos and despair feelings. Sometimes. i mean, it really just depends on the movie. And I think marathoning these movies is kind of the reason why I'm like, fuck, somebody make it out of this already. This is like six movies and only one person you care about survives.
01:18:38
Speaker
Yeah, it's always just unfortunate, especially in the third movie. You really like mely Mary Elizabeth Winstead's character and the boy. and don't remember his name.
01:18:50
Speaker
Yeah, I just, but I do like my bleak endings or nihilism. I mean, No Country for Old Men is my favorite movie of all time. And That movie, without spoiling the ending, does have a pretty negative outlook on the world, I would say.
01:19:09
Speaker
Even though i would it feels like it's got hope in there, but I would say that overall that movie does like have a nihilism to it that i can relate to and I definitely feel is in the world.
01:19:24
Speaker
That's just an example. like i feel I can take both. It really just depends on the context and my mood as well. Yeah, i I'll agree. like if I'm in a shitty mood and I watch a movie that is just...
01:19:39
Speaker
so sad, for lack of a better word, or just like disturbing in general, and then just leaves you on a fucked up way to die, or just leaves you guessing at the end, i will be really scarred and probably not want to watch the movie anymore.
01:19:58
Speaker
But my mood, my headspace is going to be a a big, you know... I cannot talk right now. I'm sorry. That's going to be a big indicator of like where I'm going to be at after watching it. like and I was watching a review for Midsommar.
01:20:16
Speaker
and feel like I pronounced that wrong. But... I forgot which one it was, but they were saying like, this a really like hard movie to watch depending on like how your headspace is you probably need to be in a good headspace before
Mood and Movie Rankings
01:20:31
Speaker
you watch this. And that makes so much sense because i was in a decent mood when I put it on. And I'm like, fuck, I am so happy I did not watch this when I was sad because I it would not have ended well.
01:20:44
Speaker
I could see that. And I mean, sometimes I will see a deeply sad movie and I'll connect with it. Like I saw but this David Gordon Green movie, an earlier movie he did called snow angels a little bit before Christmas around, uh,
01:21:00
Speaker
a really like sad point in my life. It was just like pretty rough for different reasons. And I really connected with that movie because there was a sadness to it, but this, it was also juxtaposed with like a happiness, like ah ah on the other side of that movie that I really, connected with as well. It was like about struggling Alcoholic father. And I've I had my alcohol struggles. I'm two years sober now. And then really beautiful high school love story that I really saw myself in both of those stories.
01:21:39
Speaker
But then like my two favorite movies are the two movies I put up top. I feel like are drastically like different movies with drastically different outlooks, like no country for old men. Like I said, it's pretty dark and nihilistic, but my second favorite movie is a rival.
01:21:58
Speaker
And that movie I find to be like very beautiful and hopeful. And to be, it's about like, not only communication but choosing to bring love into your life knowing like that love could one day die but you still take the risk and it's like a profound deeply moving movie that always makes me cry so it yeah ah i don't know i don't know why i went on that ramp but there's like different sides to the coin i guess
01:22:30
Speaker
No, I get you. I get you. But any final thoughts on Final Destination Bloodlines before we do our rankings? I'll get into my final thoughts in the rankings. So yeah, guys, stay tuned. We're about to rank the movies.
01:22:45
Speaker
And I think we're going to rank the premonitions. We'll fly through those real quick. And then we're going to announce what we're going to be doing for the next month of the podcast. So Mercedes, do you want to kick off with your rankings first?
01:22:59
Speaker
Sure, let's go. I'm interested to see how ours are going to pan out. I'm excited. It feels like it's been a while since we've ended a season. Timeline-wise, it has, but yeah, I feel... I'm giddy. I don't know what your list is going to be like at all.
01:23:18
Speaker
Now i'm nervous to say my list. Okay, so going from worst to best, starting with the worst, Final Destination 4, going next final destination five final destination two final destination three final destination bloodlines then final destination at the top whoa what yeah yeah i'm surprised myself honestly what made you put final destination at the top i remember that being a negative review
01:23:55
Speaker
It really was. so I'm just surprised that I ranked it like this. I don't know. like I like Bloodlines a lot. I do. But there's just... Apparently not enough.
01:24:07
Speaker
so there's There's just a little, i don't know. There's something that I can take away at least from part four down to one.
01:24:20
Speaker
Like Final Destination 2, enjoy at least the three main characters in there. And I like how dark it is and moody it is.
01:24:31
Speaker
Part three, i will always like just because they are in a theme park and that shit scared the hell out of me. Bloodlines was a good film, but I really enjoy the entire cast ah ah from part one.
01:24:47
Speaker
It does have a little charm. No, it doesn't age the best, but it has a little charm to it where it's like, all right, You're the one you're the reason why ah this whole universe has started.
01:25:00
Speaker
So I have to have some type of respect for it. Not a lot, but some. Well, my list is going to be the disrespectful one. All right, let me hear it. Let's hear it.
01:25:13
Speaker
All right, so at the very bottom where it deserves to be, much like you, the final destination, the fourth one in the franchise, I got that at the bottom at number six.
01:25:26
Speaker
My number five is the first final destination. damn Yeah, and not a huge fan of that movie. I feel like... I've said this before plenty of times, but they only get better from there with the exception of number four.
01:25:42
Speaker
And then my fourth-ranked movie is Final Destination 2. This is where I start to like them, where I think they're they're good. We're sitting in good territory. My number three is Final Destination 3.
01:25:55
Speaker
Good movie. I'd say this is where it starts to get strong. We've got... Some of the best character work in the franchise. Sitting at number two is Final Destination 5. I think this is loads of fun. The kills are some of the most exciting in the franchise. And at the end of the day, I feel like it's about the kills.
01:26:16
Speaker
So this one deserves to be there with the amount of tension and excitement that I got from that one. I had to look away a bunch. It's hard to watch in the best ways.
01:26:28
Speaker
So Final Destination 5 is at number 2. Then at number 1, it's Bloodlines. It almost didn't make my number 1. It was a toss-up. I had 3 up there at one point. I had 2 up there. I had 5 up there. 2, 3, 4...
01:26:42
Speaker
like my two three four um One through four all sit pretty close together, but Bloodlines, I've seen it the most. I feel like it has the best character work, and much like Final Destination 5, I think every kill in it is so like worth watching. There's not a dud in the mix.
01:27:03
Speaker
All right. I respect your rankings. I do. Not necessarily where part five sits, but yeah, I can dig it. I can dig Yeah. You and i really flipped on number five and number one.
01:27:19
Speaker
I know. That was funny. Yeah, but yeah, number one, i don't know, man. I don't know. I'm not liking it that much. But do you want to rank the premonitions? Do you already got them written down? Yeah, yeah. You give yours first now.
01:27:38
Speaker
ah ah Okay, I'll fly through these. I'm going to go from best to worst just because I don't have them written down, and I think it'll be easier to recall them off the top of my head from best to worst.
01:27:51
Speaker
her So from best to worst, I'm winging it right now. I think I got this though. Final Destination 2, I think that's got my favorite premonition. Bloodlines is my second favorite.
01:28:05
Speaker
Final Destination 5 is my third favorite. Final Destination 3 is my fourth favorite. Final Destination, the first movie, is my fifth favorite. And then the Final Destination is again.
01:28:20
Speaker
It finds itself at the bottom somehow. I don't know. Must say something about me, not the movie. I mean, we got some similarities there. I was labeling them not by the movie, but by what the premonition was.
01:28:35
Speaker
Okay. so That's good. do Yeah, I'll do mine best to worst as well. That's smart. You should have went first. Damn it. Well, I went first for my movie ranking, so you had to go first. Tell me when you're taking creative liberties before I look like a doofus.
01:28:52
Speaker
Dude, you are always creative and your vocabulary is so much more vast than mine. So every time you talk and I'm about to say something after, I'm like, wow, I'm to sound like a toddler next to this man. So, yeah.
01:29:06
Speaker
You see the way she set me up, folks? She was like, no, you go first this time. I know I have a better presentation. Oh my god, shut up. Anyway, my the one that I like the most is Kimberly's Premonition from the Highway. The second one that I like is the roller coaster scene in the theme park from part three.
01:29:32
Speaker
Then... Part three or number three is flight 180 from the first one. My fourth favorite premonition is the Sky Needle restaurant.
01:29:46
Speaker
The fifth one is the one with the bridge. And the last one that I absolutely hate is the NASCAR premonition.
01:29:57
Speaker
Gotta keep it there. Yeah, at the bottom where it deserves to be. I might take the clips of you saying what the scene is and put it in my section. Is there just you saying them for me?
01:30:12
Speaker
love you. Just so it's easier to listen to. I'm like, fuck, my section's just a jumbled up mess filled with numbers and the word bloodlines. yeah and No, it's okay. That's how my ranking looks for the movies. i just put 654321, FD, FD, FD, and then all the numbers, and then I put bloodlines. So, yeah, I'm right in the same boat as you. Yeah, we basically just communicate by calling these movies FD, then whatever. TFD, yeah FDB.
01:30:43
Speaker
the Yeah. So, yeah, guys, that's been Final Destination.
Future Podcast Plans & Listener Engagement
01:30:47
Speaker
You know, I'm sure we will forget everything that happened in these movies within a couple of months, but that's okay.
01:30:56
Speaker
Oh, yeah, definitely. That's okay. We'll be on to bigger and better things. Yeah. Speaking of which, guys, we got a pretty fun October lined up for you guys.
01:31:08
Speaker
We're not doing a typical season. It's going to be a bit more of a grab bag month. And I think you guys are going to like what we've got to offer. So the first episode, you're going to be here next week, October sixth I want to say.
