I Know Exactly How You Die Breakdown: Meta Horror, Hotel Hell & Bad Decisions | Streamin’ Demons
11 Plays1 month ago
Here we go, fresh off the demons' lair—Season 5 kicks off with a bang! Jo and Amelie tear into this brand-new indie horror gem, I Know Exactly How You Die (world premiere vibes hitting theaters/festivals right around now, like that Dances with Films NYC drop). It's a tight, meta slasher-mystery mashup where a struggling writer's words start bleeding into reality in a creepy, isolated hotel. Think Stranger Than Fiction crashes into Scream, but with way more "don't call the cops" energy and some killer hotel sensory throwbacks.
I Know Exactly How You Die gets the full Streamin’ Demons roast. Jo & Amelie dive into the meta slasher premise, hotel vibes that hit too close to home (Amelie's real-life stories!), character logic fails, and why Katie steals the show. A solid indie horror watch with great acting and pacing—perfect for fans of hotel-set scares.
Key Moments:
- Opening chaos – Jo's wild New Year energy + Season 5 hype, immediate dive into the premise with Amelie's enthusiastic yes-nods.
- Main plot or twist – The core hook: writer's manuscript manifests real murders in the hotel; meta "Stranger Than Fiction" meets slasher stalking, spelled out clearly so no one's lost.
- Character study – Katie (the real protagonist) carries the emotional weight while writer Ryan's a flawed, unlikeable dick who keeps writing despite the deaths—Jo calls it out hard.
- Jo’s big take – Loves the small cast working in a believable hotel setting, praises acting/direction/music, but rages on horror tropes like "never call the cops" and dumb decisions that almost tank it.
- Amelie’s reflection – Hotel life flashbacks galore (sensory triggers, shady guests, ex-prostitution stories, privacy demands); ties her real background to the film's isolated, sketchy motel feel—personal and poignant.
- WTF moment – Mom finds out kid's dead and just... stands there? No rush to the room, no immediate 911—both scream "CALL THE POLICE" at the screen repeatedly.

Intro
00:00:07
Jo
Happy New Year. Nope. Yes. Happy New Year's. Hey, it's our January 4th. Hello, January 4th people. How are you? I'm including you and the people.
00:00:15
Amelie
Hello.
00:00:17
Jo
Live from Prague and or Montreal and or Scotland and or Ireland and or North Carolina, South Carolina hike. We're bringing you to live. Streaming Demons welcomes season five. My God, five.
00:00:31
Jo
Season five is already now. If you have brand new to season five, okay, you're brand new to season human demons, you're going to find that Joe can't talk half the time. Other time, I don't know what happens.
00:00:45
Jo
But we are going to review I Know Exactly How You Die, and myself, Joe, and Amelie, of course. It is a brand new, new, new, new movie. We are recording this on the 4th of January, but it's not in the theaters yet. So sorry, people.
00:01:01
Jo
As soon as you listen to this podcast, it'll be in the theaters. Promise. Which theater? We don't know. I don't know. But this comes as a rated R. We did a lot of PG, PG-13 movies in a bit. This is a strict R, hour and 29 minutes.
00:01:19
Jo
And it is horror, horror. Like there's no bending genres here. It's like strictly horror. Right? You and I watched this one yesterday, think. She's nodding her head for people who are listening at home.
00:01:33
Jo
It's a head nod.
00:01:34
Amelie
Yes.
00:01:35
Jo
Sorry. Today, I'll read off the IMDb. A hack writer must complete his slasher novel. How do they fucking know? It's not a slasher novel, first of all. It's a mystery novel.
00:01:48
Jo
It's a contemporary mystery. No, that is the I thought this was about me. I thought this about me. My bad. And I already finished that novel. So fuck y'all. A hack writer must complete his slasher novel while evading a relentless stalker determined to kill his protagonist and capture him.
00:02:05
Jo
It's weird pronoun at the end because it makes it sound like the protagonist is a him, but it's not. don't know. IMDb kind of could have done better that time.
00:02:17
Jo
It's a weird thing where like stranger fiction or stranger than fiction, whatever the Jim Carrey movie was or whoever movie was, where when one person writes something down in a particular hotel room, it starts coming true.
00:02:35
Jo
That's not a spoiler, that's the entire fucking premise of movie, right? And you kind of start understanding this, and if you don't understand it, there's actually part in the movie that just fucking spell it out to you.
00:02:46
Jo
So, like, this is what's happening. And it becomes part of the plot line. One of the things I liked about this movie is it's got like five fucking people in the cast.
00:02:57
Jo
You know, it's not a lot of people, but they do a lot with it, right?
00:03:01
Amelie
Yes, yes, Evan, I would say we saw some movies when there is not a lot of people and it doesn't make sense, like the previous movie with the town.
00:03:14
Amelie
There were just five people in the town, it's the same, etc.
00:03:15
Jo
Oh, and they're all models. Yeah. Yeah.
00:03:18
Amelie
While here, being in a hotel, makes completely sense. The scene takes place in a hotel. And you meet the manager, you meet a young teenager, you meet other people who are in the hotel for personal business, etc.
00:03:33
Amelie
And because it's a very small universe, it makes sense.
00:03:34
Jo
Yeah.
00:03:38
Amelie
If you have just 10 characters, of course you've got 10 characters. It makes total sense. And I really like it.
00:03:45
Jo
Yeah, and you mentioned something we're watching it. It's kind of like both of our worlds combining the writer because you are from a hotel background.
00:03:47
Amelie
Watching it is kind of...
00:03:52
Jo
If you haven't seen what was cracking Amelie, go check it out. Now, you come to the hotel background, and I come from a writing background. And so it's kind of like both of our histories coming together. It's kind of interesting.
00:04:04
Amelie
Exactly, because when I watched the movie, I was like, the door, how people are presented, the situation, it reminded me of when I used to live in Fox Hotel, in Seu-Clin, not for France.
00:04:04
Jo
Yeah.
00:04:17
Amelie
Same door, same lock, same card, same little memory. Like, I was looking at that and I like, ooh, memory land. The smell and everything,
00:04:32
Jo
Yeah, it does have a lot of triggering sensory data, not triggering in the modern vernacular, I guess. But the sensory data will trigger, if you've ever been at one of these smaller hotels, it's not like a major chain.
00:04:44
Jo
It's one of those smaller hotels where you're left alone. Like there isn't a lot of this or that. It's like, oh, this is your room. Good luck. If you get a TV that works, awesome. If you didn't, hey, better not, you know, next time. The snack machine doesn't work.
00:05:00
Jo
It just eats your fucking money, right? That's actually running joke in this film. There's video game. And I do love hotel lobby video games. I miss them.
00:05:12
Jo
Because that's like one of few places you can still play arcade game for like 25 fucking cents. And just like mindlessly go at it. Now, I will say this.
00:05:25
Jo
We had a lot of small cast movies last year. We did. And you're right. Sometimes it was just like, why? The entire town only has five people? Like, what the? Is this Phantoms? Like, what the fuck am I watching?
00:05:39
Jo
And sometimes it was, oh, this movie only has like one person. And she's carrying the entire film. And it's brilliant. We saw that in the cellar.
00:05:51
Jo
It's more than one person, but it's like she carries the whole fucking film.
00:05:51
Amelie
Exactly.
00:05:54
Jo
This is mix of the two because you do have a cast.
00:05:54
Amelie
Exactly. Yeah.
00:06:00
Jo
So one person doesn't have to carry everything.
00:06:04
Jo
There are no really minor characters. Although there's sometimes a character was like, wait, was that their fucking mom and dad? Is that the dad? Like some parts in the movie I don't know how age works apparently anymore.
00:06:20
Jo
Like I actually thought that the mom and the daughter were just two women.
00:06:25
Jo
You know.
00:06:26
Amelie
You can have teen pregnancy and the mother is in her 30s and the child is 15 years old. can happen often. What I really like about the hotel story, it's really like what I used to face every day.
00:06:41
Jo
Yeah.
00:06:41
Amelie
A person would come just for a week and they explain themselves, yeah, my girlfriend, she kicked me out and I've got a week to write a novel, blah, blah, blah. Another person who just wants a car and that's all.
00:06:53
Amelie
and want to pay in cash and get the room, some prostitute, people who are like, hey, would like a room, but not next to the car park. I want in the backside. And if a man asks for me, don't exist. I'm not here.
00:07:07
Amelie
And if you can call me and tell me who's a person come, I had this kind of situation. It's none of your business.
00:07:14
Jo
Wait, you had a situation where a person didn't want in the backside?
00:07:20
Amelie
ha.
00:07:23
Jo
Welcome to jokes, 2026, everyone. It don't get better than this.
00:07:28
Jo
I can tell that one.
00:07:30
Amelie
There's a lot of stories like that. For example, people would come and say, hey, I want a room. Not parking. Side, I want back.
00:07:37
Jo
Yeah.
00:07:40
Amelie
Okay, great, amazing. And if anyone asks for me, I'm not here. But if you can take their name or tell me when they came, etc. No problem.
00:07:50
Amelie
So I had this kind of situation. One who broke my directrice heart is a man who just wanted to look in the other side of the parking. So we one hotel and all hotel.
00:08:06
Amelie
They would go to the building to look down on the other parking to see what was going on. So to spy on someone who was going with a boyfriend, girlfriend, if you see what I mean.
00:08:15
Jo
Oh, shit,
00:08:18
Amelie
And there's one guy who wanted to have access to one of the rooms. We give it for free. We just give him the card. He came back. He was like white like a ghost. And we knew he just called his wife with someone else, you know.
00:08:31
Amelie
So stayed, would think, a half an hour in the car park. There's a lot of stories, like the people who come with a camera and they want to take pictures to the other side of the car park, if you see what I mean. Or people who are really strange, like, say they can take the room with the car machine when there is no reception.
00:08:57
Jo
Yeah.
00:08:59
Amelie
So yeah.
00:09:00
Jo
Well...
00:09:00
Amelie
Or people want to be private, like I don't want to have any house cleaner in the room and want to leave, la la la la.
00:09:05
Jo
That's me. Like, usually that's me. Yeah, usually if I'm in a hotel, I just want everyone to fuck right off. I don't need... There a few exceptions.
00:09:16
Jo
If you're leaving me... Back in the day, back when ate chocolate, like, some people would leave me chocolate, little presents in my rooms.
00:09:20
Amelie
Thank you.
00:09:26
Jo
I'm like, okay, I get it. That's very nice. I don't take chocolate anymore. So if you want to leave me presents, flowers work. Flowers are nice. You know, selection of tea. Give me a tea.
00:09:38
Jo
If you want to leave me presents in my hotel room. But there was one time where Bean and I, yes, that's his real name. No, I didn't name him. No, it's not fucking racist. No, wait, no, it's not racist. No, it's not racist. That's what I want to say.
00:09:53
Jo
Bean and I went to Long Beach. We had a party out in Hollywood. And were staying Long Beach for some reason. And it was supposed be a former brothel. It was still a brothel.
00:10:06
Jo
It was still a brothel. We saw some kid running around like four years old, running around the hallways until their mom was done.
00:10:16
Jo
You know what I mean? And that's how we were introduced to the hotel. I'm like, oh, it's not a formal brothel. It is a form of a brothel. Nice.
00:10:27
Jo
And the rooms came with Lysol. Like, Lysol. And there was, was supposed to be two beds. There were not. was just one. like, okay.
00:10:40
Jo
But the other bed was some sort like mattress on the floor.
00:10:45
Jo
So I like, oh, it's just a mattress on the floor. Can't wait. This is awesome. And we were looking outside. know, you're talking about the parking lot in between. We're looking in between. There's a little alleyway. a dead-end alleyway.
00:10:57
Jo
We saw someone get mugged in the fucking alleyway. And we just drove from Vegas to Long Beach. Neither of us were in the mood to, like, stop fucking mugging that day. So like, what are doing? I'm like, run, bitch.
00:11:10
Jo
And then that was it. That's how we helped. We told the guy to run. Yeah, he got jacked. He got fucking jacked. But I ain't going down the fucking stairs.
00:11:19
Amelie
That's the atmosphere of it. It's easy to turn a Brussels into a hotel because you already have the bed, the shower, and the toilet.
00:11:27
Jo
Yeah.
00:11:31
Jo
It's all you need.
00:11:31
Amelie
For a lot of Brussels, I turn into hotel, a bed and breakfast, or things like that.
00:11:37
Jo
have seen so many brothels before, man. That's weird. Not as actual sex, but like so many former brothels. They used to be all around the US.
00:11:44
Amelie
Oh, I did, I did, I did. It's very common, like...
00:11:48
Jo
Yeah, by the hour.
00:11:49
Amelie
Very common and they often take the story of the building and make it good. There is one hotel in Paris I visit with my high school, mind you, when my professional high school.
00:12:00
Jo
Really?
00:12:02
Amelie
It's a very small hotel, which is called La Maison des Ministres, the house of minister. And there small rooms. And there is one was really dark, beautiful. You turn the light and there is a lovely little lanterns. It's really beautiful and romantic. It's now a romantic hotel to take your wife and to have a nice weekend getaway, very sensual and stuff like that.
00:12:27
Amelie
And you can really feel it's for sex. Like you go there, you need to fuck, you know. And... Yeah, just a few rooms. And it was called the Hotel of Ministres because it was a house both rented by the minister to take the mistress.
00:12:45
Jo
So, what you're saying is, Screaming Demon should take the show on the road. We'll go to all these different hotels. Like that one. Oh, that was not story.
00:12:54
Amelie
Yeah. Oh yeah, definitely. Like if you were looking for, for you and your girlfriend or your wife or your partner whatsoever to go to a very sexy hotel in Paris, I would advise that hotel, L'Hôtel des Ministres, La Maison des Ministres. It's a small hotel.
00:13:11
Amelie
It's in a quiet place in Paris, very bourgeois. It's a beautiful one, not expensive. And it's a five-star hotel. It's considered one of the five-star hotels in Paris.
00:13:23
Amelie
But you don't go there to have breakfast. You go there really to have a nice weekend. You have discount coupons to go to restaurant aside. You know what I mean? But I'm sure if you ask for a subpidot, they're going to give you a card or call someone.
00:13:36
Jo
For those of you that do not know what third pillow means, it means escort. That's the vernacular. Apparently in Europe, not in United States, which means that I need a pillow for my legs. Thanks, I'm old.
00:13:48
Amelie
It's very interesting because officially in France, prostitution is forbidden, right? But there is an interesting love affair between prostitution and hotel.
00:14:02
Amelie
When you go to the hotel, either you go to sleep or to fuck. or to have a weekend to rest. Except if you go to a spa. If you go to a spa is to rest with your wife, you get a massage, you get break, right?
00:14:15
Jo
throw a bowl, spa, castle, man.
00:14:18
Amelie
And the interesting thing is, in the luxurious hotel, there is always a bar and a restaurant, and there is always side of the restaurant where you know there is gold diggers, prostitutes, like we call prostitutions de luxe.
00:14:33
Amelie
They're not down the street damoiselles. They're, you know, classy.
00:14:36
Jo
No.
00:14:39
Jo
Well, they're Vegas.
00:14:39
Amelie
There's an escort girl, but the escort girl, it's more for businessman, etc.
00:14:43
Jo
Yeah.
00:14:44
Amelie
Like, if I want to, I can be an escort girl and not have sex. It's just le paret. Dress well, be smart, have a nice conversation. You know what I mean? Be beautiful, be entertaining during the dinner.
00:14:57
Amelie
But if you talk to receptionist, it's going to be like, oh my God, prostitute? No, we don't want the prostitute. It's really bad. We need to call the police or ask them to vacate because prostitution is bad.
00:15:12
Amelie
This is how it used to be in my hotel. boss would say, if you notice a woman who book a room and you have few men coming and going in a room, like during the day from 9 a.m.
00:15:29
Amelie
to 5 p.m., there is five guys who come and go, you call me or you kick the person out.
00:15:34
Jo
I'll be number six. Oh, sorry. And I'll be number six, damn it.
00:15:38
Amelie
That's prostitution. There's one woman who rent a room and we see beautiful woman, my age, 35 years old, very classy. Bonjour, une chambre, s'il vous plaît.
00:15:54
Amelie
Merci, bonne journée. Hop, she goes. Five minutes later, there is a man who goes.
00:16:00
Amelie
OK, no problem. One hour later, he calmed down. hold this phone and he's like, oh yeah, it's amazing, you should try, la la la la. And he goes. And usually, have the habit of the woman come pick up the card, text the man and hope the man come later on, 10, 15 minutes later, not get busted, you know, to have sex between, voila.
00:16:23
Jo
Yeah.
00:16:25
Amelie
And then the man leave and maybe an hour, 20 minutes later, the woman leave and leaves the card at the counter. Voila. But here, there is another man who comes.
00:16:39
Amelie
45 minutes later, go down, leave.
00:16:43
Amelie
And after there is a third guy and my boss and I, we looked at each other and we're like, who are these people? Do you know this guy? No. And it's the middle of the afternoon.
00:16:53
Amelie
So you need to know as receptionist, we have kind schedule with society. Between 6 a.m. and 9 a.m. is breakfast. People eat, drink, leave and they go to work.
00:17:05
Amelie
or they go to their destination. Then you have people who live at 10 a.m. That's the people who are a little bit sick, who drive the highway or really need a break and go back to their car and leave.
00:17:17
Amelie
Simple. Then... between midday and let's say 2 p.m. it's the official break in France so you have all the mistresses and the secret lovers who come and book a room and text and they fuck so if you go to the first floor of hotel it's just bang bang bang you're going to hear the French alphabet and it's going to stop at the first letter if you see what I mean it's going to be R and O simple as that
00:17:45
Jo
Oh.
00:17:49
Amelie
Right? But then, in the middle of the afternoon, have the professional. You have the professional. People usually arrive at 6 p.m. at the hotel. So you have the professional.
00:18:01
Amelie
Or people who just want to book their room and rest book their room in advance and go do something in the city. So...
00:18:12
Amelie
After the third guy, my boss is like, I need to check. And he grabbed his card and he opened the door and looked and she was basically doing striptease. So he's like, yeah, no, you don't do that.
00:18:24
Amelie
Bye bye. It's been the third man. We have CCTV, your prostitute.
00:18:29
Amelie
Bye bye.
00:18:30
Jo
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:18:30
Jo
He kicked her out?
00:18:32
Jo
All those fucking pornos lied to me? In the porn, he joins her. Oh my God. The pornos lie. And...
00:18:40
Amelie
No, because if people, if you're officially with someone who prostitutes themselves in your hotel and it's norm, you can get a fine.
00:18:44
Jo
That's a joke.
00:18:48
Jo
Yeah.
00:18:50
Amelie
You can be in big trouble. It's really, really bad.
00:18:55
Jo
Hi, Joe Shefshef from Haunted NPL, former. I was joking. It was just a pornographic thing that happens. I didn't think the manager would actually have sex with the hooker.
00:19:08
Jo
I think that would be illegal.
00:19:11
Amelie
Yes, we are just kind of like, for example, hotel next to us, the previous manager was fired because he had three prostitutes in his hotel.
00:19:22
Amelie
He knew about it and from time to time he was having sex with them for free.
00:19:27
Jo
Well, technically, I think probably having sex with them and they were getting room for free. But I know exactly how you die. Oddly enough, no prostitutes in this one. None.
00:19:36
Amelie
Yeah, strangely, yes.
00:19:36
Jo
That I know of. Back to the movie.
00:19:39
Amelie
I was expecting one.
00:19:40
Jo
So...
00:19:40
Amelie
I was expecting one. I was expecting the prostitutes. I was expecting families, maybe?
00:19:50
Amelie
Something like that.
00:19:51
Amelie
Which we have with the daughter and the mother, you know.
00:19:52
Jo
There was that one weird family.
00:19:55
Jo
Yeah, which I thought was a prostitute.
00:19:57
Amelie
But very realistic.
00:19:57
Jo
That's what it was. I thought they were prostitutes or just kind groupie hanger on party girls.
00:20:02
Amelie
I know. don't know. I wonder.
00:20:05
Jo
Yeah, but turned out to be like a family or some shit.
00:20:05
Amelie
I wonder. Cragadic prostitute meth I don't know I don't know I don't know you know what I mean Yeah
00:20:12
Jo
So it starts out with the writer trying to check into the worst hotel room you could find apparently.
00:20:22
Jo
mean, It was weird for a number of reasons. One, I have checked into hotel rooms to write a book. Never that shitty of a hotel room, though.
00:20:33
Amelie
Mm-hmm
00:20:38
Jo
Like, why would I? would have just fucking stayed at home. I would gone to Starbucks instead. You know, it's like, no, that hotel room looks like you need a fucking hepatitis shot. It's like a tetanus and hepatitis shot at the same time. A hepatitis shot. New in 2026. Hepness. Coming to a school near you.
00:20:55
Jo
Look at you, Florida.
00:20:57
Amelie
To emphasize he's poor and he's really rock bottom, rock bottom.
00:21:01
Jo
He's got a fucking agent, though.
00:21:01
Amelie
Because let's say, for example, your girlfriend kick you out of your house. You're going to a nice hotel, maybe chain hotel like Campanile, you know, with a certain level.
00:21:16
Amelie
It's clean. It's beautiful. It's amazing. You know you're going to have your tea. You know how the breakfast will be. You maybe have a special car because you travel lot. You see what I mean?
00:21:26
Amelie
That's what we do in France. You've got like Campanile. Campanile, it's a very beautiful hotel.
00:21:29
Jo
Sure. But not the worst fucking hotel.
00:21:32
Amelie
But a good one. Yes, a company, a good hotel. It's not the most expensive, but it's a good hotel with a good bed. You know, it's clean. You know, when breakfast will be served, you have maybe a loyalty card, etc. In his case, he's really rock bottom.
00:21:52
Amelie
He's very clumsy. And he got kicked out by his girlfriend. And he has just one week to write a script. So it's really to emphasize he's a loser.
00:22:04
Jo
He is loser in that sense, yes. However, he's also a loser of a very pushy agent. I didn't find that believable. If I want pick apart this move, there's a couple logical flaws here.
00:22:17
Amelie
Mm-hmm.
00:22:18
Jo
But one of them was how pushy his agent was the level of success he's been.
00:22:24
Amelie
Mm-hmm.
00:22:27
Jo
Does that make sense? Like his agent was pushy as fuck to get this, oh, it's going to be, it's going to be a movie.
00:22:34
Jo
It's going to this. It's going to be this. It's going to be this. But pockets. And yet he's a shit writer. Like, I was a fucking shit writer. Like, how? How? And he can't even afford a real hotel room. Like, what the fuck is that?
00:22:48
Jo
And not only a shit writer, he's kind of a shit person. He's not the hero of the story.
00:22:56
Jo
You know, he's not a likable character for many, many, many reasons. If I wrote, okay, that book is true. Surviving Gen, I'll get it. Since you asked.
00:23:07
Jo
Surviving Gen X by me, are there true stories? Yeah, it's a memoir.
00:23:13
Jo
It's a memoir. The new one, Scarlet Mysteries. Do I have people who might recognize themselves? Yeah, I do. But if I ever started writing and Bean called me up and saying, hey, man, blah, blah, blah just happened.
00:23:27
Jo
I'm like, holy shit, that just happened my book. I should probably stop. This asshole keeps going.
00:23:33
Jo
Even though when he knows the voodoo spell of that one room makes whatever you write come true, he keeps going.
00:23:43
Jo
He could have just gone like, oh, fuck this shit. The end. Happy every after now. Let's go. So that's like a glimpse into his character. He's not a likable character.
00:23:56
Jo
And I don't know how the fuck anyone wrote a book before. But from what I saw on the screen, that's not how he'd write books. Are we using Scrivener probably? I don't know. Fuck that shit anyways. Like blips and blurbs? No, no, no, dude.
00:24:10
Jo
Yeah, he kind of corkboarded it out before. Then sure, whatever. Roll my eyes. But... The character himself is not likable. I'm not saying the actor is not likable. I think the actor is really good.
00:24:22
Jo
Rushabh Patel, as I just completely kill your fucking name, playing Ryan is good. Like the actor, I think this movie is really good. Katie Weiland is Brandy.
00:24:35
Jo
Kewel Shabez Naya and Stephanie Hogan kicking it as Katie. Everybody else doesn't even have an IMDb, so don't know. So you have that really good, strong acting, which means you want Katie to do well because she's the real protagonist of this movie.
00:24:57
Jo
It's not Ryan. It's actually Katie. Ryan's almost like a sub-character dick writing bad things for Katie to do. It's the Bugs Bunny sketch.
00:25:10
Jo
You know, where Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck, you know, Bugs Bunny is drawing Daffy Duck and the duck thing happens. You see that. Now, in this movie, were there any moments besides some very, very, very, very bad thought processes on not calling the cops at any fucking time when a serial killer is killing everyone?
00:25:33
Jo
Besides that part, were there any major flaws that you saw?
00:25:38
Jo
like logic wise or.
00:25:40
Jo
Okay, as the internet in Prague decides to catch up or not.
00:25:46
Amelie
Manon, they don't call the police. They don't call the police.
00:25:52
Jo
Yeah, I think that's the only character flaw.
00:25:58
Jo
Yeah. And if you're new to Streaming Demons, welcome to Prague's internet structure. Starring me, Cha-Cha, as Donis Miller would say. So if you're watching this and you're wondering why Amelie doesn't talk sometimes, it's not because she's shy. because the internet just shits out on her fucking end right now. And this is me explaining to her in real time that her internet is out again.
00:26:21
Jo
But I believe what she was saying was
00:26:23
Amelie
Can you hear me? Like, can you hear me?
00:26:25
Amelie
I'm talking.
00:26:27
Jo
hear you, Clem Fandango. Can you hear me, Clem Fandango? I can hear you now, yes.
00:26:32
Amelie
Because I was quiet. was quiet because I was thinking.
00:26:36
Jo
Oh, no, because when you're talking, I saw your lips moving, but couldn't hear said.
00:26:41
Amelie
Okay. Okay, fair enough. So what I'm saying is, Except the fact they don't call the police when they should call the police. There is also the scene when the mother finds out her kid is dead and she doesn't run in the bedroom to check her kid.
00:26:56
Jo
Yes.
00:26:57
Amelie
She's like, oh, so my kid is dead. I'm telling you, if one of my kids, I look for them and they're officially dead. run immediately to the room to see them dead, to grab their corpse. Like, come on. And I call the police.
00:27:13
Jo
Yeah. And I think we kept saying, and then call the police. We said that in the movie. We both said it the movie repeatedly as we're watching it. Like this happens.
00:27:21
Amelie
Yeah.
00:27:21
Jo
Oh, a dead body.
00:27:23
Jo
Let's call the police. Oh, bunch of blood. You know what we do? Let's call the police. And you are seeing or hearing that there is cell phones.
00:27:36
Jo
He took a picture of the dead girl. Spoiler alert. In a horror movie about slashers, there's dead people. So the cell phone works, at least for fucking picture taking.
00:27:47
Jo
Like all these things fucking work. The actual phone phone works. There's a landline. That fucking works. No one stops and go, we should call the fucking cops. Not sure to fuck not Ryan.
00:27:57
Amelie
Yeah.
00:28:00
Jo
Not Katie. Katie should be like, yo, my dead stalker who's killing people is here now killing people. I should call the cops. And I think she does try.
00:28:10
Jo
She does try. Katie does try to reach out and kind of get kiboshed a bit. But you have this movie where, besides the ultimately poor decision-making of almost everyone in the cast, you know, the characters, not the actual actors and actors themselves.
00:28:27
Jo
Besides that, it's well-paced. It's got a cool hook on it. The lighting is fine. The music's awesome. The sounding is great. The music really kept it going.
00:28:39
Jo
The acting is amazing. The direction, the writing. And I'm not saying, Mike Corey, you're doing a bad job at writing. I'm not saying that at all. hope you don't take it this way. I'm saying the decisions made by some of the characters are very horror trope.
00:28:54
Jo
Instead of getting the fuck out, they stay. Instead of calling the police, they're like, oh, let's tough it out. Instead of like killing someone like, you know what? Let's just try to leave them unconscious.
00:29:04
Jo
Stuff like that. I'm not saying the last one happens or not, but stuff like that. Where the movie still works. The movie still works. If you like horror and you like hotels, you like hotel horror.
00:29:18
Jo
This is arguably the top five, including Psycho and Identity. I think I would put that into identity world. Really. I know exactly how you die.
00:29:29
Jo
Say that 15 times real fucking fast. So I like this movie. But I kept thinking of one thing as watching it. Would I watch this in the theater?
00:29:44
Jo
What do you think?
00:29:46
Jo
Would you watch this in the theater or is this more of a streaming movie for you?
00:29:49
Amelie
easy.
00:29:52
Amelie
It was hour long. It was really good.
00:29:55
Jo
And as...
00:29:56
Amelie
And to watch.
00:29:57
Jo
There you go.
00:29:59
Jo
I think someone just scored a field goal by the way Amelie is putting her hands up.
00:30:00
Amelie
Really easy to watch. would go to the cinema.
00:30:05
Jo
I see a shrug of his shoulders.
00:30:05
Amelie
I was saying the film.
00:30:06
Jo
Now I'm doing a play by play. Like I'm doing fucking color commentary.
00:30:09
Amelie
One hour long.
00:30:10
Jo
Like I'm doing color commentary.
00:30:14
Jo
But you never know. think she's trying to say she would see it somewhere. There you go.
00:30:23
Amelie
I say movie is one hour long.
00:30:23
Jo
She's seeing it somewhere. There you go. Yep.
00:30:29
Amelie
The movie is one hour long. It's really easy to watch and I would watch it on the cinema.
00:30:35
Jo
You would watch a cinema. Okay. If I saw it in the cinema, I would not be upset if I bought a ticket like that was the movie. I'm not upset. I think there are some movies that were required cinema.
00:30:48
Jo
But I would be like, you know, whatever. And there's some that are just absolutely this is a streamer at best. I think you're right. As Amelie just pops in or not.
00:31:00
Jo
I think you're right and hope everyone's still there. But if this is a movie for you, they could have made the name fucking harder if they couldn't try. I know exactly how you fucking die.
00:31:12
Jo
Or actually, I know exactly how you die. The fucking part's not in there. I added that. If you like horror, it's indie. Vibe-wise. Acting's good. Directing's good. Written's good. Everyone is doing really well in this.
00:31:25
Jo
It's got a nice little flow to it. Go check it out. See it in the movies theaters, you fuckers. Omelie said she would. Joe's still kind of like, oh, whatever.
00:31:35
Amelie
Yes, I would.
00:31:36
Jo
Yeah. Oh, there Welcome back. So that is it for New Year's. Next, next episode. We go to Prague and we fix Omelie's Wi-Fi. Until then, everyone, house, my spouse, Joe and Omelie saying goodbye.
00:31:50
Jo
Bye, y'all.
