Ep 125: Leviathan (1989)
57 Plays3 days ago
One of three 1989 underwater sci-fi action flicks this month, LEVIATHAN is directed by George P Cosmatos and stars Peter Weller, Ernie Hudson, Daniel Stern and Hector Elizondo. A team of underwater miners (very different from underwater oil drillers like The Abyss) encounter a bizarre creature in the depths of the ocean that shouldn't exist, but it does and they have a battle on their hands. There's also a monster in the sealab with them in the form of an outrageously horny Daniel Stern.

Introduction to 'Bad Movies' Podcast
00:00:00
Speaker
Welcome back for another week of Drownuary. And this week, say, ah, motherfucker. I'm Derek. I'm Whitney. I'm Jack. This is Bad Movies. Where's people?
Sound Effects and Cast of 'Leviathan'
00:00:41
Speaker
I was ah bummed right off the bat for this movie because underwater creature sounds were sadly not Frank Welker. No? No. They said somebody's name. It's like you could have gotten Frank Welker for a tune. He's down there. He could do all the bubbly squid noises.
00:00:57
Speaker
Whitney was, I think, excited right away, because it came up. The credit started. She hasn't seen this. She didn't know anything about it. Nothing. Nothing. And the credit started, and it's like Peter Weller. I was like, whoa. Who said it second? I don't remember. It was Peter Weller, but then it was like Daniel Stern. Hector Elizondo. Hector Elizondo. Ernie Hudson. She's like, what are we watching? A star-studded cast of 1989's Leviathan. Yes, 1989's Leviathan.
00:01:21
Speaker
Not in the other years. I don't think we said any movie yet. No, we didn't.
Director George P. Cosmatos and Streaming Options
00:01:24
Speaker
So. Directed by George P. Cosmatos. Familiar name. Yes, he directed Rambo First Blood Part Two. Oh, and that's why Senna was in here. Senna? Senna? Senna. Senna. He also directed Cobra and Tombstone.
00:01:37
Speaker
Well, and I think we talked about it before. He's the director that left Tombstone. Is he the one that left? I don't remember. We ended up figuring it out. Is he the one that left or is he the one that came back? Go back and listen to our catalog of episodes. Yeah. We have answers for everything. On Rambo, first part, Blood 2. You're as good at saying the name as they aren't naming the fucking name.
00:01:58
Speaker
Because he's not called Rambo until later. Or the the series isn't. No, yeah, because it's first blood. Rambo, first blood, part two, and then Rambo, three, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. But for those who would like to watch this movie at home before we Jim Jam on about it any longer, it's available a bunch of places right now. You can get it on Prime. I watched it on Prime.
00:02:23
Speaker
You can get it on Hoopla, you can get it on Tubi. It's Hoopla, the library one? I think so. I think so. That's what Jack said before, but then we found out, because there's another one I knew about called Canopy with a K. So that might be the library one and Hoopla might be some things. I don't trust that. I think Clint did the Canopy.
00:02:42
Speaker
Well, I've used Canopy before, but... Oh, an indictment on your racism. But if you feel like watching it with commercials, you can also watch it on Tubi. Or if you have MGM Plus, it's on there. Or it can be awesome like my husband. It is Hoopla. It's the library because I have it downloaded and I've never downloaded Canopy. And that, Hoopla, is how I watched Earnest Scared Stupid.
00:03:04
Speaker
Cause it's educational. It's educational. It's E for earnest. And you can rent it on Apple and Amazon for $4, buy it for $15, or you can be cool like me and buy the 4K disc from Keno Lorber for probably like 25 bucks. Ain't nobody that cool.
00:03:22
Speaker
This is a bunch of people. Save some pussy for the rest of us, Derek.
Humor and Music in 'Leviathan'
00:03:26
Speaker
Look around you, this is my pussy dungeon. Is that a dungeon for pussies? ah I'm a little terrified now. I don't know. But what I do know is that this movie was written by ah David Peeples and Jeb Stewart. ah Jeb Stewart's another name we know.
00:03:45
Speaker
Yeah, so well, David Peeples wrote Blade Runner, Unforgiven, Twelve Monkeys and Soldier with Kurt Russell. Damn. And Jeb Stewart co-wrote on Die Hard, Another 48 Hours, ah The Fugitive, and he was the creator of Vikings Valhalla. Oh, OK. That's the lesser spinoff. Oh, that's not. Oh, the other one is just Vikings, right?
00:04:10
Speaker
Yeah, this has to do with Leif Erikson. So later in the Viking timeline. And speaking of people we've had on the show before, the music, which I thought was pretty cool, but could have been better, yeah but was Jerry Goldsmith, who we've talked about 100 times. I mean, First Blood, Supergirl, Deep Rising. um But he also did Total Recall, Congo, The Shadow. Oh, yeah, we did The Shadow, ah The Mummy, a bunch of stuff. Yeah, it could have it could have been better, though.
00:04:39
Speaker
I think like it doesn't disappoint, but it wasn't captivating. it It's not as bad as um next week's episode, which we've already recorded. Harry Manfredini for on deep start Deep Star Six. Yeah.
Creature Effects and Body Horror
00:04:51
Speaker
And then the special effects are Stan Winston, ah who did the penguin stuff in Batman Returns, um Terminator, Terminator 2, Iron Man, Congo, Jurassic Park, Aliens, a really big fucking ah pedigree. Yeah, I didn't love the creature in this. Some of the shots were really cool when he has like the face in his stomach. Things cool. The fucking dick monsters with a mouth, tentacle wise, are terrible. They're supposed to be terrible. I ain't scared. I just like that. I like the body horror aspect. It was reminding me of you probably haven't seen it yet. Just came out this year with the substance. I have not. Oh, yeah, that shit was dope. Yeah, it's like it's very body horror thing ah to me more.
00:05:37
Speaker
And it turns into Margaret Qualley. Yeah, but then there's a whole thing It's faces coming out of bodies. Okay. I mean that part when when the monster head I don't want to say too much because I think you you you would probably enjoy right when the monster has the Jesus absorbed that looks cool Yeah, but it's a lot of there's a lot of lazy tentacle work when people are running under um Like the catwalk. Yeah, they're just dropping rubber tentacles. There's no movement to them at all. Correct and I don't know I noticed that laziness.
00:06:08
Speaker
Well, it's funny. There's so one of the guys, one of the head effects guys was a guy named Richard Landon. And there's a quote for him talking about doing the effects on this. And basically he was like, he said, the quote is George Cosmatos always let us take the lead on how to shoot the creature. ah He was a big hearted person. He'd throw up his hands and say, I don't know what I'm doing. Just admit that and let us do what we knew how to do. He's like, I'm not a special effects guy. Yeah, you guys are just kind of a refreshing thing. You know, like, hey, you're you're the expert here.
00:06:36
Speaker
My machine. My machines. That you normally get. Yeah. This is my movie. Whose movie is it? My movie. How's that helpful? And this one again was why I say again, I guess people haven't heard next week yet. We recorded these out of order, so I'm all wonky. Yeah. But it's the wet for dry style of or dry for wet style of shooting. So mostly it was pretty dope, though. It looks a lot better than Deep Star. So it was it was noticeable the most, I think, when they went into the titular boat. Yeah.
00:07:09
Speaker
OK, I was I know I could tell right when they were doing the mining at the beginning, it just looks like it's like, OK, I used a dark filter and some lights. Yeah, some smoke in the air. Maybe we shot in slow motion. But they were made dust particles. floating around Yeah, and they did some stuff for that. If they weren't doing ah slow motion and the actors were doing a pretty damn good job of moving slow enough to look underwater. Yeah. And I mean, obviously there's some water stuff mostly at the end
Commercial Failure and Cast Performance
00:07:34
Speaker
for sure. And it stuff for the stuff that was shot in the water was shot in Malta. So they got to go on vacation. But anyway, this movie was a huge failure, not surprisingly, because we're talking about it. Well, and also 89 was a big year for water movies. Yeah. This is the third of three movies that we're watching that I took that came out in 1989 that are for this month. ah The Abyss, this one and Deep Star six. And when did it come out?
00:08:00
Speaker
Uh, I don't know. I didn't get the date. I was trying to remember. Rude. Don't look at me, but never get date. This one cost twenty five million dollars to make. So let's play the game. Would we? What would it gross? Cost twenty five million. Yes. You want to go first or go first? I want you to go first because I need to know what price range I want to be in. This may don't fucking. pride Don't one dollar me. Don't. You know what? If I say three point five million and she says three point five one million, I quit the fucking podcast. I will say four million.
00:08:30
Speaker
So it made four million? Yeah. um I was going to say two. OK, well, it did better than that. Fifteen point seven. Oh, but twenty five million plus promotions. I mean, I'm kind of surprised at it did that well. Peter Weller is. Well, it didn't make any money then, though, right? Well, no, but I mean, like gross. Yeah, gross, it gross, better than what you guys are saying. I mean, it made zero. It made negative ten million dollars. But OK, Peter Weller had at this point, it only really done RoboCop.
00:08:59
Speaker
And that should have been enough. I mean, he he had done by this point, Naked Lunch had come out. Yeah. Shakedown had come out. Come on. Everybody knows all these giant films like Naked Lunch and Shakedown. Yeah. OK. I said what I said. Yeah, you did. I mean, OK, look, I like Peter Weller. I ended up coming around and on him on Shakedown. He is very robotic in this. Yes. I mean, especially this beginning part. It just is flat.
00:09:27
Speaker
And he's probably the weakest part out out of this mostly star studded cast. Yes. Yeah. And at first, that's what I was thinking. But as the movie went along, I kind of came around to like he's not a people person. That's the yeah his character. Yeah. He's a scientist who likes rocks. Big facts. He is a geologist. Yeah. Geologist. He's a rockman from Arizona to see the Arizona Wildcats. Yeah. Arizona. Arizona rules.
00:09:52
Speaker
I don't know if I ever told that story. We went on vacation to, ah oh, what is it? Mount Rushmore is in South Dakota. And we're going through the parking lot. My little, my older sister's looking at all the license plate. All of a sudden she goes, Arizona, Arizona rules. Did you throw a banana out the window and see if the car slipped? No, I went to go pee on the Mount Rushmore. They didn't let me. I wonder why.
00:10:18
Speaker
Well, at that point, we had there's a friend of the family as a native guy, and he's like, if I had a chance, I'd piss on Mount Rushmore because it's from they took some prestigious native land to build these fucking awesome monuments. They are awesome looking. I've never seen them in life. Awesome as like the ah the official. Yeah, like it's full of awe. Yeah, that's worth looking at once so and then blow it up. I've seen pictures. I've seen it in Team America, world police, and it got blown up.
00:10:46
Speaker
halfway there, baby. So they work for the tri oceanic mining company and they're mining silver. All these movies are about people going underwater to silver and other precious minerals. Oh, like when they said that, like you couldn't just say one more like silver and gold, uranium. All they talk about is silver. They straight up like and but it's just like I love silver. Doesn't flow as well. Doesn't I love gold and silver.
00:11:13
Speaker
So they're on day 87 of 90. There's no way anything could possibly go wrong. No, they're short. The movie started, so. Yeah, everything's great. ah So we've got our cast. We've got Beck played by Peter Weller. I mentioned Shakedown, Robocop, Buckaroo, Buckaroo Banzai. Oh, yeah. How could I forget his big movies? Hey, if somebody is listening to this podcast, they probably do know these movies. They probably do. And everybody knows Robocop. Yeah, everybody. So shut up. Even like the Robocop with Joel Kinnaman, right?
Ernie Hudson's Career
00:11:44
Speaker
and We also have six pack. Played by Daniel st Stern. Yeah. Of Home Alone fame. Bushwacked. Oh, Bushwacked. Oh, what the fuck is the movie with him and Dan Aykroyd? The Celtics? The Celtic Warrior? Oh, Celtic Pride. Celtic Pride.
00:12:02
Speaker
Yeah. And don't don't don't change the dial on. Well, probably Celtic pride or Chad or Bush or Bush way. Yeah, we're home alone. And then we've got Ernie Hudson playing Jones. And if you don't know Ernie Hudson, then you need to leave.
00:12:15
Speaker
Well, then you need to go back and listen to our episode of Latch Key Vids that's available to the public because he was a star that apparently. Starring of Ernie Hudson. Cop Rock, episode one. Ernie Hudson. We've also had him on the the short YouTube thing that we did with the new movies, Worst People, because he was in the Nicholas Cage yeah retirement plan. Retirement plan. oh That's right. Looking great. Yeah.
00:12:42
Speaker
And then we celebrate a birthday, of course, Ghostbusters and the Crow. Mm hmm. And many other movies. I think we've talked about it, but I don't think you guys have ever seen it cowboy way with Woody Harrelson. Yes, I have yeah you have. You have. You have. You haven't. He is a cop in that movie and he's great. Just as he's a cop in the Crow, right? He wants to be a cowboy. Is he a cop in the Crow? I think so.
00:13:06
Speaker
Yeah, and he goes to like a hot dog stand. Yeah, he's also a cop. And we've had him on the Patreon. Oh, Airheads. Yes, Chris Farley. Yeah. Yeah. Officer O'Malley. And then we've got Willie played by Amanda Pays, who was who I thought I recognized a star of ma Max Headroom. I'll tell you who she looks like.
00:13:28
Speaker
Nick Miller's lawyer girlfriend. Oh, yeah. OK. Who's who's the actress? I couldn't remember 20 years apart. But yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe that's the familiarity I had in an accent. And she's also on the show, Marshall Law, which is a potential for latchkey vids in the future. OK, explains why I haven't heard of it. Yeah, it's a it was two seasons. I can't think of who was in it right now. God damn it, it's bothering me because he's a big um Hong Kong action star. But basically, he's a cop who does martial arts. OK. OK. And that's the show.
00:14:04
Speaker
Joey. Who were you talking about? Jackie Chan. Who's the Tony? No, it's not Tony. What did I say? Joey. You said Joey. I thought you were going to say Joey Fatone. Oh, that one. Yeah.
00:14:21
Speaker
Oh, Sam Ohung. That's who it is. Oh, Sam Ohung. Yeah. Yeah. Millionaires Express. Many other movies. All of them. That's the one I can think of off the top of my head. He's a Hong Kong guy. Don't don't don't kinkshame me. I'm not kinkshame. Just the way that you make it sound like such a household name. It should be. Everyone knows Kung Fu policeman. Sam Ohung. Sam Ohung. His last name was Hung. Oh. And then we have De Jesus? De Jesus? He will, from here on, be referred to as the Jesus. Yeah, but did you ever see Legally Blonde? No, God no.
00:15:00
Speaker
You did, because it was in theaters. I saw Legally Blonde 2. So he made movies that this guy was in. I was like. ah Battery's not included. Yeah. He's the gangster right in the beginning. And Invasion USA. Oh, boy. He just pulls it off of the shelf. I wish I had a video for that one, dude. No, he's. Practicing. He's in Legally Blonde as the cabana boy that the person was supposedly having an affair with. And then she's.
00:15:29
Speaker
says something about last year's Louis Vuitton's and his gay boy comes out and it's fantastic. Okay. I'm going to take that's what I know him from. I'm going to take you at your word. It's fantastic. Oh, no, it's not watch. yeah His name is Michael Carmine. Uh-huh. Yes. This is what happens when I pay attention when you do this. but And Hector Elizondo who's playing Cobb who Hector Elizondo. I mean, he's got three roles that I love. Princess Diaries.
00:15:56
Speaker
He's got three role one the ones I wrote down. He's got three roles that I love. Go for it. Pretty Woman. Yes. Necessary Roughness and How High. I have How High here. ah Taking of Pelham one, two, three. OK. Overboard. Oh yeah. And Turbulence. Don't change the dial on Turbulence. Turbulence
Film Setting and Character Dynamics
00:16:14
Speaker
is who? Turbulence is Ray Liotta and a cast of stars. Is it a skydiving movie? No, it is a plane crash movie. Oh. It was like a plane hijacking movie?
00:16:25
Speaker
There's plain stuff.
00:16:31
Speaker
But anyway, those guys are all out doing mining stuff. I don't know if Bowman's there with them. We don't see her till later. Yes, she's out there because she keep saying said like stop dragging your tits or whatever. I thought that was to the other. Yeah, i wasn't to little willie heavy mean does it matter. I I'm with Derek, though. that I don't think I saw her or sorry. She reference had her reference until she's out of her suit. She's delicious. She is. She looks like a fucking porn parody of Reba McIntyre. Yes. a thousand percent. You get that big old juicy hog over here and you fix my cable with your penis.
00:17:07
Speaker
She's playing Bowman. He got more penetration than Elvin. Good. Is played by Lisa Eilbacher, who was in Beverly Hills Cop 10 to midnight live wire. She had me go from six to midnight. And also, you know, don't change the dial on some of those movies, especially live wire. That's the one where Pierce Brosnan is a bomb defusing guy. Mm. Yeah.
00:17:32
Speaker
I mean, there's nothing that can go wrong there. No. Here's bombs and there's definitely a part where he's diffusing a bomb and he's like between a girl's legs and she can't move. So oh not you're thinking of blown away. Maybe Tommy Lee Jones. Tommy Lee Jones and Jeff Bridges, which also has a scene where he's between the girls legs diffusing. Yeah, under a desk at a school or some shit. But no, but I think I do remember that. Get a little panty shot. It's I don't remember, but it's ah it's an awesome, stupid fucking movie.
00:18:00
Speaker
Yeah. But so they're doing mining stuff and they're on their way back in and the Jesus's rebreather stops working. So they got to drag him in and he's about to die. You're going to implode. And it only really matters because we find out that their doctor on the ship, known as Doc, played by Richard Crenna of Rambo fame. He was Rambo's boss. I can't think of his name right now, but it's just such a way Rambo's boss.
00:18:28
Speaker
Like, there's no ranking military rank there, just... I am not a military. I am not a military either. He's Rambo's boss. I think he's his colonel, but either way, he's Rambo's boss. Troutman. Troutman is the name, yes. Troutman, yeah. In the one, two, and three. But we find out that basically he doesn't... He's not a very good doctor. Well, he might be a good doctor, but he's not good at being around and doing his job. Yeah. At least he doesn't... I think he's on like a downward spiral. We find out.
00:18:56
Speaker
spiral. Well, yeah, we can talk about it now why he's there. He's because he has like a really good pedigree. Yeah. And then Peter Weller to his talks of fucking crazy eyes who's been on the show before. Yes. Welcome back. Welcome back. And she she's like, well, all right, look, he did have a he had an experimental cure that did kill some people. It got blown way out of proportion. So that's why he's here. So he is wicked smart. He just made a mistake.
00:19:25
Speaker
And this is his like and and stationed in Alaska. and Well, because nobody else is going to give him a job, but this company don't give a shit if you kill some people. No, as we find out. Yeah. I do like Daniel Stern's story about because they're talking about how ah the Jesus could have like in his suit would have imploded.
00:19:42
Speaker
without the oxygen or whatever. And Daniel Stern's story about I was with a guy who blew his suit once and he got sucked up into his helmet. We just buried the helmet. did He's such an asshole. And he plays it so well that I hate it because I like Daniel Stern from obviously Home Alone, but also like City Slickers is one of my favorite movies. There we go. ch That's one of my favorite. ch He's a scumbag. He's going to be like in Chad. is and chd He's not.
00:20:07
Speaker
Have you seen Chad? No, no. Well, you should. It's awesome. We'll watch it one day. They make me. I will. But he's I mean, he's a good hearted guy in that. He's like helping homeless people. He's like a he's like a preacher or something for like some street church. you Write it or produce it or direct it or something. He didn't direct it. I don't know about any the other. I thought he was involved in of the creation of that. but He might have. Maybe I'm wrong. But we'll see. He just runs around that whole movie just disgusting.
00:20:36
Speaker
Like just sweat stains and just greasy and just like, you're like, I know you're supposed to be a good guy, but you're just so gross. I'm the grease bandit. That's what they'll call me. The wettest of bandits. Is he still with us? Yeah. He retired from acting. Oh, he's painting now, right? Painting, sculpting. he He wrote some books where all the money goes to charity. Like I think I want to say he's like in a ranch in New Mexico.
00:21:00
Speaker
I mean, because even even though people probably know who he is by looking at him, most people are going to know Home Alone. But if he got the right contract, he's making money off Home Alone for the rest of his life. Well, excuse me. And you know, he narrated Wonder Years. Oh, did so I mean, he's probably got some residuals on that. Yeah, if he had any sort of investment or a return rather than he's doing OK. But he talked about in the Mark Merrim podcast, which I do recommend listening to that interview. It's kind of refreshing. and Um, but ah he is also speaking of him being a scumbag, they're off doing like maintenance on the ship, whatever. I do like that the ship's making a bunch of noise and they're all worried about it imploding. But then when Peter Weller sends them off to do maintenance, they're like, you can't make us work. We already work today. yeah And it's like, well, do you want to die or not? Yeah. That's not what he says, but that's what I'm thinking. Cause this, this like, you can't make us work comes directly after.
00:21:52
Speaker
Is this thing going to collapse while we're in it on our last three days? My union contract states I don't have to work, so we're always going to sit here and die. Yup. It's my day off. and But Peter Weller gets him to do the work because he's like, well, you could do it today and then have tomorrow off or you could just work tomorrow. So it's up to you. Good manager. yeah Good manager. How did the day off sound? Sounds great. So do tomorrow today. Although day off down there just sounds like I'm sleeping.
00:22:18
Speaker
Yeah, or masturbating. Well, we can do both. That's what Daniel Stern is doing. But he's doing some maintenance with Bowman, and she's reaching up doing stuff, and she's got the tied off shirt, and her boobs are just sticking out right there. And he's glaring. And he's like, yeah, what a nice pair. And she's like, excuse me? And he's like, oh, the doctor and the captain or whatever. They're such a pair. She's like, oh, I thought you said you like my boobs. Oh, no, I was playing poker, and I have a really good pair of sixes. But I'm telling you now, what a great ass. Sorry, I'm looking at the donkey of the month calendar. It's a really good looking ass. But I think you have a perfect pussy.
00:22:58
Speaker
You know, the cat picture. The cat picture right behind you is so fucking perfect. Tell you what, I'd like to get in there and take a look at that hole. Hey, we're miners, okay? I'm looking at this fucking cavern. I'm a miner. I'm looking for silver. I'm not talking about you. Get away from me. I'm a miner. That's inappropriate. I just watched waiting, so yes. I'd really like to have sex with you.
00:23:19
Speaker
I have nothing for that. It's just what I'd like to do. And there's a whole bit with Daniel Stern had grabbed one of these weird space crabs. Yeah. I don't know what the fuck this thing is. It's a deep sea crab. And he like hit it, hidden it in a suit so that when Willie is doing suit maintenance, it pops out at her and then she kills it and ends up hiding it in his bed. And then he gets mad about it.
00:23:43
Speaker
Yeah, he gets super pissed. Well, because it's showing that he's one of these guys, like, I can dish it out, but I can't take it. Yeah, 1,000. I am very fragile. Please knock it off. He's on Reddit. yeah Today was a really bad day. I was looking at Ms. July 89, as one does, trying to masturbate, and then a spacecraft got in my suit. Oh, wait. By the way, wait what year are we in?
00:24:05
Speaker
I want to say it's present. You think so? You think it's present? Because someone's a little high tech. Yeah, but I think it's like, you know, that's fairly but it's more technologically advanced present. Sure. OK, because I mean like the helicopter and everything. that Oh, that's true. OK, so it's eighty nine if we mastered or we're better at living underwater. Eighty nine if we funded science.
00:24:28
Speaker
That's a reality I'd love to live in. Same. And then we also meet. There's a parallel universe where that exists. Yeah, somebody killed Reagan instead of JFK. In this ah montage of work, we meet Meg Foster, who Jack referenced earlier. She's playing Martin, who's the head of the tri oceanic, whatever the fuck I said. And Meg Foster, we've had on the show before, Blind Fury. She was the kid's mom. She's got those piercing blue eyes.
00:24:56
Speaker
fucking insane eyes. She's also in They Live. She's in Best of the Best 2. She's topless in Brainscan. I mean, she's in Brainscan. Evil Lynne in Masters of the Universe. Oh, yeah. Yeah. So is this a canon movie?
00:25:11
Speaker
No. Oh, OK. This was and and this was produced. Well, it's produced by not the famous De Laurentiis. There's a Dino De Laurentiis was a famous like 80s movie producer. He did ah David Lynch's Dune amongst Evil Dead or ah Army of Darkness, at least. OK. Amongst a bunch of other things. But as soon as the names came up at the beginning, it wasn't him. It was probably his kids because it was two other names. It was like Luigi and Antonio De Laurentiis or something. Luigi.
00:25:37
Speaker
Yeah. Real sexy name right now. And as soon as I saw that, Whitney pointed it out because it was two people. But I was like, well, all I know is it says De Laurentiis, which means this movie went over budget and had trouble getting funding because that is what he's famous for. But basically like she's telling them they're talking about.
00:25:54
Speaker
I don't know. We meet her. That's all that matters. Yeah. She's not that important until she tries to. It's about the doctor. She's the face of the corporation. Oh, that's right. This is where she's talking about the doctor. She's the face of the corporation. Like she is. So someone we can personify the greed and then she is the man. We can hate this person because she's the man. Well, and the way she signs off and she's like, OK, click. Mm hmm. Two of them have to go out. Daniel Stern basically isn't in trouble. Daniel Stern and Willie are in trouble for fucking around. So they do have to go out, even though they were told they'd have the day off and they go to find some more shit. They find another vein of or whatever the fuck. Daniel Stern is relentless, dude, because like this chick's drilling is like, oh, yeah. Does that remind you of anything? And then she puts the bomb and he's like, oh, deeper.
00:26:36
Speaker
Oh, like, dude, is this every day with you? Yeah. Or is this just an extra day
Discovery of the Russian Ship 'Leviathan'
00:26:40
Speaker
at work? with Are you having an extra day? I've worked with that person before. I've been that person before I was 15. But he falls off an underwater cliff because he's not tied down or whatever and they lose a signal. So Willie has to go try to find him. And I'm like.
00:26:55
Speaker
if i was her i'd be like sorry camera's not working i'm looking i'm looking yeah it's the weirdest day i can't find a movie never happens yep but she goes looking for him she finds a sunken ship it's got russian on the side and it says leviathan and russian How does that say Leviathan and Russian? I don't know Russian. Russian letters are Russian. Russian letters are mostly D's and P's and H's. I know they're not, but they have those letters that look kind of like D's and P's. Sounds right. They have the one that's like a weird lowercase D and a weird uppercase P and then they have the one that's those two combined. Those are all different letters. I don't know. I hope someone listening gets upset because that means we've reached Russia.

Speaker
Arizona Beer House, 33 taps, 800 plus cans in bottles. You can do it for here. You can do it to go. You can do whatever you want. Accept that. That's right. Arizona Beer House at 150 South Cove in Tucson, Arizona. Sunday, Sunday, Sunday, and every other day of the week. Open 11 a.m. to midnight. We're going to save the whole can, but you're really going to need the tip.
00:29:12
Speaker
I need the tip. So Bowman does some tippity tap research about Leviathan and finds out that it's according to records, it's on active duty with the Russian fleet and in the Baltic Sea, which is presumably nowhere near where they are. They're off the coast of Florida. I want to say they're 600 miles away from Cuba. Oh, did they say that? OK. Well, they said a hurricane is 600 miles away. OK. Yeah, that's right. Right on. yeah Yeah. So a little sketch, a little sketch that you say it's all active duty. I'm looking right at it.
00:29:41
Speaker
Turns out that six pack is fine. Daniel's turn is always fine. And he was stolen a safe. Not always fine. But he's getting bowling balls in his head and stuff he's about to not be fine in this movie. Well, yeah, he in fact, he's about to be really not fine. He's going to be the hero. He's totally OK right now. Is he the hero? Now you're watching the movie. Are you rooting for the monster? Are you rooting for humanity? No. OK, then. All right. A valid point.
00:30:09
Speaker
But he finds a safe and they bring it back and they're going through all the shit. And I like Ernie Hudson finds a videotape, but he's like, Kitty does Kiev. Yeah. And then the doctor, Richard Crennan is like, let me see that. He's like, no, it's not really. Kitty does Kiav doc. That was a good laugh. um And there's a flask in there that six pack steals. Yep. Nobody sees him take it. Bowman does.
00:30:32
Speaker
Oh, that's how she goes to him later. Yeah, because he's saying something to her at the time or she says something to him and she sees it. and They kind of show her give like a side eye like yeah he's got i want some of that vodka. I'll give him a handy for a shot. Yeah, I'll let him look at my boobs.
00:30:47
Speaker
That's all you need, too. But don't don't touch them. I'll show you both my boobs if I can get a mouthful of vodka. Just vodka, I said. but Put it away. They watch the videotape, Krenna and Peter Weller do and. ah Basically, like the people on the ship, there's some kind of infection. Yeah. All they really say. Right. Something the guy had never seen before. And this guy looked familiar, too, but I don't think he was.
00:31:15
Speaker
No, I didn't look him up. I didn't either. I thought about it. And then he was speaking Russian. And I was like, Oh, never mind. Good. do it Maybe he's in. Oh, fuck it. What is it? Das Boot? No, that's German. You five, seven, one. What's the one with. ah For Widowmaker? um Well, yeah, Widowmaker or you five, seven, one. And also what's the. Do you care? October. Yeah. Humphrey October. cause I think Crimson Tide. And I was like, No, that's not. That's American.
00:31:46
Speaker
Roll Tide. Roll Tide. No, Crimson Tide's a movie. Is it? Yeah. okay Even I know that. Submarine movie, you nerd. It's got Sean Connery in it, right? Sean Connery. He plays a Spaniard by way of Egypt. Nope, that's Highlander. I'm from Spain. You can tell by this flawless auction. That's the hunt for Red October.
00:32:07
Speaker
He's also a Russian. I think has Denzel. That's better than hunt for red October, which is a good movie, but it has Alec Baldwin instead of Denzel Washington. If you could make that switch, we're talking about a great movie. I want to make sure I'm not crazy, but at least about this. Yeah, dude, Crimson Tide, Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington. Nineteen ninety five. Oh, OK. Looks amazing. So it's not Sean Connery? No, he's in a hunt for Red October. Oh, different red submarine.
00:32:36
Speaker
Okay. Oh! Oh! Viggo Mortensen, James Gandolfini, to name a few. They all live in a red submarine. A red submarine. A Russian submarine. A Russian submarine. Oh my god! He's got fucking Steve's on, dude! Oh shit! Yes sir! Yes sir! This one time we loaded up all the nuke to torpedo tubes. We put all the beer in him and launched him out and then we were sad. That's a mo- Oh, that's Mikhail's Navy. They've definitely done that bit.
00:33:06
Speaker
Uh, but so moment in six pack ended up splitting this flask and you know, it's not good. Cause it's right after we heard about the infection. And then there's a closeup of the flask pouring into the glass. You're like, well, well I know who's infected. Yep. I mean, best case scenario, you're going to get diarrhea. That's the best case. I mean, it's just vodka. You don't know what, how long it's been there. What you just don't drink other people's flasks.
00:33:32
Speaker
but not going to give a diahea That boat looked like it'd been down there for some time. Mm hmm. There's bones. Bones. Well, water. Yeah, understandable. But the fish, the fish, I guess the crab would pick up them. Yeah, exactly. All right. Like I said, I'm nom nom nom nom nom. The ship itself is like rusted shut and I guess water rust. I don't know. It just had maybe it was only 100 years. Just don't pick off people's flasks. But so six pack goes the next day to get a check up from Doc because he doesn't feel good.
00:34:07
Speaker
It looks like a hangover to me. But he's got these spots all over him. And the doctor is not wearing gloves. I don't like this, people. Well, later on, when he's giving exams to the whole el ernie ah group, yeah, or he's like, why are you wearing gloves? I'm like, because he's a doctor. Yeah. What are these questions? I put my doctor puts gloves on just to say, hey. He's like, it's not that kind of exam, is it, doctor?
00:34:32
Speaker
Different color glove, it's okay. I wore my brown pants. But so Peter Weller's like, fuck this. Request an evacuation 24 hours early. Well, you totally can do that. I just don't think it looks good on your resume.
00:34:48
Speaker
And then also we find out that if they don't do that last day of mining, they only get paid for half their pay for the month because they're under target. Yeah. Yeah. So I got you by the balls. du Yeah. I don't think people would have left anyway. They would have been like, yeah, I'll leave after I get this. Sure. It's a weird vodka skin rash. We've all had a fucking case of the the smearing offs.
00:35:10
Speaker
The Stolies around the world.
Infection and Body Horror Escalation
00:35:14
Speaker
But like Richard Crenna is examining some of the stuff that's growing on Daniel Stern and he's got some a like early AI computer. Yeah. No, he's talking to people.
00:35:24
Speaker
Oh, is he? Yeah, he says later he's been talking to people, but I think at this point he's talking to the computer because the computer is doing an analysis already. Yeah, I thought that was him to the computer. No, the computer has like the three dots and texting. to the It could it could it could easily be just early.
00:35:39
Speaker
ah concept of IM is a mess. Yeah, I thought he was asking the computer because he put in the sample and it analyzed it and it was like unknown genetic origin. And then he said that to the people. The big reason I thought it was the computer doing it is because the very end ah to fast forward a bit. Peter Weller has to get up there and like disregard last message.
00:35:58
Speaker
Well, that's also kind sent to the surface for sure. OK, so yeah, the whole time. God, you guys are dumb. It's true. Well, speaking of being dumb, it comes back with like he's like, just guess what could be wrong. It's like, I don't know, genetic alteration, generic alteration. Martin is stupid. No, the chick says that. Yeah, like that's her name. yeah oh Her name's Martin. Her last name is m Martin is her credit, but they just call her Martin. OK, that's fair.
00:36:23
Speaker
Yeah, generic alteration, genetic, the fucking generic alteration. Hey, she has eyes. We all have eyes. Hers are just crazy demonic eyes. And you listen to her, right? You've seen her with gray hair. Yeah, haunting. Also, angelic eyes, not demonic. Oh, come on. They read if they were demonic. Nope.
00:36:44
Speaker
That's how they get you. Yeah, it's a classic succubus trap, my friend. Well, I've been a succubus. Sucked. Right in front of Jack. you You've been sucked. You've been succubusted. But so Daniel's turn dies. all Kind of unceremoniously. Yeah, very much so, because he's itching at his wound. The next thing we know is he's got a fucking body bag over him. Yeah. Becks goes to work, takes his place yeah out and he does a whole eight hours out but there. You know what, though? Not complaining, because we have a movie. It's 98 Minutes. Yeah.
00:37:18
Speaker
No, it's unceremonious, but he he's not gone out of the movie. I mean, Daniel Stern, the actor is, but Daniel Stern, the dummy, the six pack, the six pack, the six, the six pack is there. The six pack. So I call my sisters all hanging out. Six packs. But that's what I call mine. I have five. It never came to anything. But I took note. I mean, maybe that's for Leviathan, too. But I took note of when they came back from working. Peter Weller went out to work. Everybody was surprised.
00:37:48
Speaker
He grabs that water bottle from Bowman right when he gets off the thing and takes a big swig. So I was like, but she still has one in her hand. I think that when she was literally drinking out of that one and he took it from her and the lid was still off of it. Hmm. But that's for Leviathan to Leviathan harder. Leviathan men, Leviathan are.
00:38:12
Speaker
But so they the doctors examining the whole crew, everybody's asking all these questions. He's like, yeah, it's no big deal. Don't worry about it. There's not a dead guy in that room. Yeah, because they don't want to let anybody know that he died. I mean, you do what a fucking panic all downstairs, like area underwater, like just trapped. They'd be fucking mass hysteria. You'd never take that job.
00:38:33
Speaker
I probably not. I wouldn't. I don't like going outside. So that'd be great because you never really actually go outside. but But if it's a big enough rig, I might have the illusion of feeling safe. Probably not. But I i don't know. Eighty nine with that technology. No. Twenty twenty four. Twenty twenty five. Probably. I don't know, man. I saw I was going to say I saw how that submarine went for those rich guys.
00:38:56
Speaker
They had a PlayStation two controller for their fucking steering wheel. There was no way that was going to go good. Logistically, it makes perfect sense. Yeah. The guy driving the sub was probably 18 and all he'd ever done is play PlayStation. So, yeah, I've done it on a simulator. They got some of those discontinued PlayStation three ones that were like the long. Oh, God. There's your problem. Worst controller ever. What?
00:39:22
Speaker
looking up. po Yeah. Yeah. So this is where like Doc is getting paged and Bowman is next to be seen. but This is where we had that line. One line I want to mention from Ernie Hudson real quick because they're they're all talking whatever. But he's telling Ernie Hudson that there's a some skin problem. He's like only skin problem I see is white people. Oh. And that's like right after we get to see Ernie Hudson dripping coming out of the shower. And he says it and he says it to the oldest, whitest one there. So, you know, that guy's offended. Everybody else would laugh. He's like, would you say more? What if against white people? Damn it. We are the pillars of society. We conquered the world. You're welcome. We brought you religion and medicine, taxes.
00:40:05
Speaker
But like he gets a page. Got rid of all those pesky natives. Yeah, you're welcome. We brought you here to America to give you a place to live and jobs to do yeah, we brought you to freedom Sorry jobs imply being paid um Let me think another word we gave you a purpose in life Yeah It's all jokes people or worse people, but we don't actually yeah white people also actually condone that um But she's like, Bowman's towel is literally sewn on for this scene. Oh, we are getting some sexy moments with both these chicks. And yeah, Bowens is just, the she's about to go open the door for the pizza delivery guy. yeah There's an underwater porno here that we didn't see. And of course, Krenna, right before he examines Bowman, the one who we know is infected, he's like, oh, nope, gotta go have a call with Meg Foster. I'll be back. Yeah.
00:40:57
Speaker
And she's like dying. Yeah, you could see like the fish scale stuff on her neck because he mentions to ah the Jesus that it's like scaly. He's like like a fish and he gets that like, I don't know, Richard Crennan's like, yeah, yeah, like a fish. I was just kidding, bro. Oh, bro, just kidding. What if I could talk about a fish? I'm a Jesus, bro. I fucking got fish for days. You ever that miracle about fish? That's me.
00:41:22
Speaker
Is that why he started growing longer hair in some of those Transformers movies? He's trying to be Jesus. Exactly. Got it. That and he thought it looked cool. It didn't. It did not. Tom Cruise pulled it off. Barely. Barely. Uh, this guy, Marky Mark? Barely. Not. No. But so, yeah, they go have their meeting. She's like, hey, well, we wouldn't let you evacuate early, but actually you're going to have to evacuate late because there's a hurricane in common. And I'm just like,
00:41:49
Speaker
Of course there is. Yeah, it's always a hurricane. But Josie, which is Ernie Hudson, was has been checking the weather. He's like, yep, it's clear skies and nothing is going to happen. dadadada da till we start to get a little ah thought that something's wrong. Something's awry. Something's awry bread. Ernie Hudson and Willie help Bowman into the infirmary because they find her like throwing up in the sink. This is hygienic. There's a toilet right there. But um they help her into the infirmary and he sees six pack.
00:42:23
Speaker
He starts talking to him. He goes in to talk to him and they don't know he's dead, so he's trying, he's like, hey buddy, how you doing? How you feeling? Dog tired, huh? Body starts like twitching and he's like, oh okay, I'll let you sleep then. Well like the leg moves up like he's trying to get comfortable.
00:42:35
Speaker
I think he just thought he was masturbating again. He's like, oh, whoa, wait, wait for me to leave the fucking room. Jesus Christ, man. Feeling a little better. there watch your You brought your fucking kitty does Kev into there with you? look if you can If you can sit up in your bed, Bowman's right there in that towel. Dude, please come check this out. This is really going to get you going. I don't know if you it's this one or the very next one, but it has like the wide shot and it's all these tentacles coming up from the front.
00:43:00
Speaker
Oh, right here. I know hanging down the sides time. It's when Bowman walks in to see him. She goes. Oh, yeah. like She goes and like to the mirror. Everybody's looking for the doctor and she's like pulling out her hair and stuff. oh And then she goes in to tell six packers. But, yeah, she can't see it from her angle, but the side of his body, that's like his arms hanging off the bed. And then, yeah, there's like tentacles and shit coming down off the side of the bed. OK, that was cool.
00:43:24
Speaker
But she sees like some gross shit coming out of his arms and like breathing, pulsating. Coming out. Yeah. So she's just like there's some good yuck work. Yeah, that's what this would convince me. She's like, hey, this is what I have an idea. Let me go in this room and kill myself. Uh huh. But I would follow the river. I wouldn't cross the path. ah She's looking for attention. Yeah, I mean, she did go into water to like release to open it up. Yeah. So it won't coagulate the old Sicilian celebration.
00:43:54
Speaker
They come in later and Bowman and six pack are now like merged into this body horror blob of nightmare fuel. It's a bit nightmare fuel. Yeah. and look but They pack it up in a body bag. They still haven't told everybody that they're dead both of them are dead. Yeah. They put them in this body bag and they're like, we're going to put them out the airlock basically. And everybody's like going along with it until it starts moving. Jesus and Hector Elizondo feel it moving. And they're like, whoa, we can't. Cobb, that's that's Hector. co Yeah. And then fucking Peter Weller is just like flush it. Hurry, hurry. And then a leg gets cut off. Pay no attention to the man or woman thing moving behind the curtain. Oh, they're like, oh, no, they're still alive. And they are like trying to open it.
00:44:40
Speaker
but a hand bursts out and that's what gets Cobb's chest. You can call it a hand if you'd like. A twisted talon of death. Yes. A twisted talon of death comes out and slices Cobb's chest.
00:44:53
Speaker
I wanted him to make it. Me too, I love him. Yeah, and they flush this thing out into the ocean, but a leg arm, an appendage, an appendage. Yeah, an appendage is much better. Gets caught in the thing and gets cut off and no one sees it, so that's still on the ship. But what happens to a worm when you cut it in half? It now is two worms. Oh, I was just thinking the thing. But yeah, I guess there's a basis of really- I don't cut a lot of worms in half, man. You didn't- We dissected them when they were dead.
00:45:19
Speaker
She's a murderer. Not a savage, I pinned him to a little rubber fucking pan. My sixth-grade biology teacher was cooler than everybody else, I don't know what to tell you. Oh, this wasn't for biology. This is a Bible study. They don't condone that. Killing of animals, they do. Because we're humans, we are above them all. They were given to us by the Lord to command over. It is our domain. Fucking hate Catholics. We're okay to kill. You really, really should.
00:45:48
Speaker
It's fine. Most of them are white credit starts talking about some of the stuff that's going on. Like this thing has like regenerative properties and they kind of like posit that like it's for underwater. Like it's for under it's for what they're doing, but we call it aqua aqua sapien or something like that. Yeah. There's something. So something that Russians were presumably experimenting with.
00:46:12
Speaker
So it's fucking Hitler thing on Captain America. They're trying to make the Uber people. That wasn't just on Captain America. That was also in the world. I know, it was in real life. That was also in history. but we talked about that all I think we talked about that on Cop Rock, which is a great place to talk about it, but them sewing people together and trying to breed women with dogs. You find me an episode I'm not talking about Hitler. I'll show you a different podcast.
00:46:40
Speaker
But like I understand the science behind that trying to I'm not condoning it. I understand the curiosity. Yeah. Like what would happen if you did that? This is where we have Richard Krenna say some shit in Latin and it translates to roughly don't fuck with mother nature. I'm just going to dumb it down for you because you're not going to get what it actually means. But don't fuck with mother nature. Don't fuck with the Jesus. well There's at one point, well Jesus is about to get fucked. Peter Weller was like, so you're saying if we had a shortage on airplanes, we would like breed air people. Yeah.
00:47:12
Speaker
We would thousand percent after we master the fucking water people. We are making air people. If we master water people, air people are easy.
Creature Threat and Battle Preparations
00:47:20
Speaker
Yeah, that's the easy part. You just change it from the bidet to doer do. Yeah. from Yeah. So having more pressure to surviving less pressure. Exactly. That's what she meant. That's do you do what you do? I speak Whitney. Do you do?
00:47:37
Speaker
I speak Adam Sandler. I think you married. I think you married a droid. I thought I married a sailor Adam Sandler. Adam Sandler bought. So first you do it. dev Then you do it. I wash my hair today day and I totally did the shampoo is better. Oh, that's that noise I heard when you smash the bottles together and they fell on the ground. But so the Jesus gets attacked.
00:48:01
Speaker
um Ernie Hudson's there and he's like, yeah, I'm going to go get help. But he locks that fucking door. Ernie Hudson is usually in this movie, the smartest person. Yeah. I mean, he is going to get help, but also he's locking the door behind. him Because the Jesus, like, don't leave me. It's like, sorry, dude, I have to. Yeah. I see what's happening to your stomach area right now.
00:48:20
Speaker
I see you being wrapped up by a tentacle the size like the width of the size of my dick. It is in you. Well, I think it's not the width. No, Ernie Hudson, Ernie Hudson. Ernie Hudson might be the the size of Kevin Bacon, not Kevin Bacon's Kevin Bacon. He has a Kevin Bacon sized penis.
00:48:36
Speaker
Kevin Bacon is Ernie Hudson's dick. That's what you say. Yeah, I got it. So, yeah, he's he's smart. He's like, look, I am going to get help. I am not staying in this fucking room with you. Jesus Christ. You all think I just killed my wife back there, right? I didn't do now. See, that movie gave us a great line to use forever.
00:48:57
Speaker
But so they go back to find out what's going on with the Jesus and the hatch has just been fucking ripped apart. Do terrifyingly ripped apart. Yeah. ah So we have. So are they trying to find each other to merge? Because when Bowman, they hear a crash. And that's when we realize that Bowman is no longer on her table and they see that she's merged with him. Yeah. I think it's to make a bigger, goopier monster. Yeah. And we find out that it's feeding off of blood and plasma. Yeah. Like it absorbs.
00:49:27
Speaker
the memories of whoever it it's retaining the information yeah man can you imagine one of those things taking us over it was just like oh Ernie Hudson Ghostbusters also cowboy way also like just it wouldn't have any useful information it was I know how to pour beer it takes me over it's like Sam Ohung come on guys It's like, drink, drink, drink. It's going to take you over. Like, I don't know why, but all of a sudden, I just have the urge to don du du du dancing down the walkway. I don't know who Anakin Skywalker is, but I know he's important. There's something about this Godfrey Ho.
00:50:05
Speaker
another Anyway, so they have this gear up scene, but it's not like it's not energetic enough. No. And you know, I love a gear up scene, yeah but Oh, but they did get a Willy, the female character with every power tool. A big scene. Oh, did we already miss her showering?
00:50:24
Speaker
Maybe. Because I love, we're so close to being a booby horror movie. Yeah. With Homegirl or The Towel. We've never seen nurps, but we do have this Willy now in the shower. Oh yeah, she's in the shower in her bra and underwear. Bra and underwear. And I'm like, I'm fine with it, but also we could have had her cry anywhere in full clothes. She was trying to get Bowman off of her. They were making it sexy.
00:50:49
Speaker
but without making it too sexy. Too sexy. Because American audiences will take their kids to see a movie where people merge together into a fishman and shoot goo everywhere, but not where a woman's boobs are out. That's just a weird, weird line to not cross. Hey, that's why we left Europe. Look at PG-13 movies. You can kill two million people as long as there's no blood or nipples. Don't show a nurpe. Yeah.
00:51:15
Speaker
so hey america yeah they have the gear up scene with like and all these i mean they're mining tools they're not weapons they should get irney hudson with a flamethrower but all these things are like cartoon sized yeah i guess it's because it's for their big suits that they're wearing exactly but like when these humans are walking around later on with like this fucking power drill that's like 11 feet long, a fucking flamethrower that's as big as like three duffel bags. The flamethrower is enormous. And the I swear to God, it's like my my dad has hedge clippers. And yeah, that's what she's got. That's the other one. It's really long. And it's just like a chain that's a six foot long. Well, that's the power drill thing I was talking about. Yeah. it's But it's actually it's hooks coming out. It's OK. A drill.
00:52:01
Speaker
That's diamond bits so he can get through all the rock. There you go. But they they talk about trying to lure it lure it to the swamp. Whatever that means, because I don't think there's swamps underwater. it's a zooab by It's like the sewage area. Yes, I want to say the swamp is the sewage area because there's another valve in the swamp for the air ducts.
00:52:18
Speaker
Ugh, that's when they dump all their dookie? Well, they can let the dookie gas out. All right, you need that. Yeah, because otherwise this place is not going to implode. I'm going to murder everybody that keeps pooping. I didn't see anybody light a cigarette in this, surprisingly, but in most 80s and earlier... Yes, you did. Martin, every scene. No, a person in the ship, I mean, though. Oh, yes, she is smoking though. She's an 80s power woman. Yes, she is. But like usually in anything 80s in earlier space or underwater, people are just chain smoking. And I'm like, dude, that oxygen is very rich. It's a power move. Yeah, it was a woman. A woman's like it's a very phallic thing. Let me put this stick in my mouth. Well, and it's also just being, you know, one of the guys. Suck on it. Or like you just watched waiting earlier and it makes you look older.
00:53:06
Speaker
Yeah. Just what women of this ah era want. Yeah. To look all those girls when he's like, I swear you're in college and they all start scrambling for their cigarettes. Yeah. But so smoking does make you look older eventually.
00:53:21
Speaker
um Hector Elizondo is complaining about how the scratch he has is itching and Richard Crann is like, it's just healing. I'm going to get some shit to rewrap your. Oh, he does like take a little peek at it. He's like, yeah, you're healing.
00:53:33
Speaker
When I come back, I'm going to shoot him because it's not healing. It's not doing well at all. I told him I was going to get something. It's a gun. It's a fucking gun. Oh, and Ernie. It's one of those Javier Bardem bolt guns. Yeah. All right. First, I need a coin because I can't just outright kill him. I've seen the movie.
00:53:52
Speaker
Ernie and Weller are doing the trying to draw the monster somewhere. And they're like, if we're not back in 30 minutes, you get in those bubbles and you fucking evacuate. Yeah. Yeah. Like no matter what. dude I like they're calling their escape pods bubbles, but then also the official system calls them bubbles. He's right here. Richard Crina goes to the infirmary to get shit. But he also goes right on the computer and he launches the escape pods and it says emergency bubbles launch. Like you think it's a cute nickname. Yeah. Like, all right. Good to the Bubbles. Well, what's what's the actual name Bubbles? They're called fucking Bubbles. I'm sure it's an acronym. for you You've never heard. You've never heard an s escape bubble. It's a bios. I got nothing. um But like he does the thing. Yeah. And at first, you know, it's one of those things where like the movie is not spoon feeding you everything. So at first it's like, well, it could could it be like is he infected or something? But then it's like, no, yeah he's just basically like
00:54:45
Speaker
This whole thing's fucked. I remember the first time watching this, I was like, oh shit, he's like the master, the queen. Yeah. You know, I guess. Going down with the ship. Well, no, no, no, I thought he was like a smarter sentient version of what's been attacking. Like, well, I guess we'll call it life. And like, the first time I watched this is like, this is my second time watching this movie ever. OK. I thought he was like, you ain't going. No. Now you can't leave. But why would they do that? He does the good fellas. But they'd want to leave so they can Well, he wants to be like in that case, it would be he wants to take make sure to take everybody over because yeah, things not worried about getting out in the water. No, they can get out of the water. They can. They can. Exactly. They can handle the pressure. They don't need to decompress, as we know, because it will. We'll get to the end later at the end. That's where it should be. But yeah, that's just my first thought when I saw this. I was like, Oh, this motherfuckers in on it. He knew exactly what the other captain did on the ship. And yeah, doing that immediately. Yeah.
00:55:40
Speaker
Yeah, it's basically just like, OK, well, if we if we stop anybody from escaping, this can't get out of here. And he says it at one point. I think on the computer, he's like, did I had to do this for humanity? Yeah, like we are sacrifices. So this thing has to stay down here, which is still like we said is dumb. Yeah, because it can just get out.
00:55:57
Speaker
My thing is, I think that Topside, as soon as something was said, they just already fucking killed everybody. they like She knew something. They're like, like you guys are coming up here. She knew something more than she was letting on. Yeah, they talk about it a little bit. Because we find out. Who's still here, Willie? ah Willie. We still have Willie. Willie's like... i oh sorry Peter Weller says, they're probably just trying to figure out what to do with us. And she's like, no, I think they already figured it
Corporate Betrayal and Creature Absurdity
00:56:25
Speaker
out. yeah And she goes and checks her stocks that she invested in this company she works for. yep And it says that the stocks took a huge hit because this station seven imploded and everybody's dead and there's no bodies. And it lists all the people we're looking at. yep And most of them are still alive at this point in the movie. yeah so So it's like, well,
00:56:44
Speaker
Fuck. it Turns out working for a big greedy corporation doesn't have its benefit. and Oh, we didn't. That's a bummer. She's supposed to be going to NASA tomorrow. Willie is. Yeah. As soon as this is over, she's starting her astronaut training.
00:56:58
Speaker
She still might. After this movie's over, she's like, I can't get the fuck away. Is there water in space? I didn't think so. What's the furthest I can get from water? Space. Mars. Now we're going to have space leviathan. You want space thins? Spacey thins? Leviathan too. Leviathan in space. We already got a name. Leviathan-er.
00:57:18
Speaker
Because it's thinner hair. I get it. But he goes back to ah patch up Hector Elizondo and um Hector Elizondo's vagina hand eats him. Yeah, it's. This is a it's a weird thing. You think of a giant hand to be great for masturbating, but they put these teeth on it. No longer is it kink kink locked.
00:57:45
Speaker
I don't want to fuck my hand. And it's not like normal teeth. It's like super alien, not alien, but like a sharp jet, like shark teeth. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I was like, or like the, what are the fish with the teeth?
00:57:58
Speaker
The angler fish, angler fish, deep underwater ones, which we did see some to that they did like a stop motion. Oh, yeah. When Willie first gets on the boat. Yeah. I swear to God, like when they when they were when she was walking, there was one scene I was like, that looks like a giant angler fish skeleton on the floor by I don't know if any of them were that big, though.
00:58:18
Speaker
Well, but then we find out with the Leviathan. Yeah. So this whatever this is takes over manipulates generic DNA gene um and maybe it started with a fish and was like, well, here's the problem. We're just a fish now because Crenna does say at one point is like, look at that skull. It's like a human skull, but it's bigger.
00:58:39
Speaker
Yeah. you know And there's i look at that. That's Phalanges. Uh-huh. Phalanges. Regina Phalanges. It's Phalanges's fingers. I know, but it's also Phoebe Buffay's fake name. It's her favorite word, Phalanges. Regina Phalanges. The Phalanges. So broken on the plate yeah, we did see a good stop-motion angler fish. yeah I'm glad you brought that back those keys. Yeah, it was cool early on um So Peter Weller and Ernie Hudson are setting up a trap for the thing um Willie comes in and ends up getting its attention. So it turns around and they're like get the fuck out of here You fucked it all up
00:59:13
Speaker
Yeah. Thanks a lot, Willie.
Monster Tactics and Special Effects
00:59:16
Speaker
ah Stupid, sweet, sexy lady. But at some point here, the monster they get away from the monster and then the monster cuts the air supply. And that's when the countdown for the movie starts, because it's like, OK, well, 10 minutes imploding more air. So this thing's going to fucking implode. Oh, and it's a male voice. It's not a female voice going, oh, implosion in five minutes. Maybe get off this boat. Well, this movie, this movie has been horny enough. They didn't need a female going like.
00:59:41
Speaker
Five minutes. They had a female and Daniel Stern just wouldn't leave his bunk. It's time to get up and start drilling. Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh. Can we play that again? I'm not out of my bed yet. I'm almost finished. I'm being awake. Do you know why they have a female doing it most of the time, right? It's more soothing. It's more calm. Oh, yeah. nobody like Men don't like being bossed around by a man. but They don't like being bossed around by a woman either. Well, they say they don't. But a woman can coax you.
01:00:08
Speaker
yeah Well, men say they don't like being bossed around by women, but... I've never said that. I live for that shit. There's a whole kink space around it. Yeah. But not in a workspace. No, in a workspace. So that's why I think, though, like the women thing, it's like, time to get up instead of, hey, time to get up. I'm like, I don't want to get up now. You're yelling at me. Get out of bed, motherfucker. No. so Now it's like, you have seven minutes to leave. um If baby gets up right now, it gets a treat later.
01:00:39
Speaker
But so they're trying to get out of there. There's tentacles popping out of things. And this is what you were talking about where it doesn't look the greatest. It's just kind of lazy. Like the tentacles themselves don't look bad, but there's no movement. None. They're just draping down. Yeah. They just needed somebody there with a marionette little thing. Just like boop, boop, boop, boop. A little wiggle. With it being Stan Winston, I'm kind of surprised that it wasn't a little better. You know what this movie needed? Tom Savini. Tom Savini.
AI in Film and Actor Recreation
01:01:06
Speaker
i mean stan winston did jurassic park Tom Savini. He learned from this. Yeah, that's fair. Tom Savini did that. when Did what you did in Jurassic Park in a cave. Tom Savini built it in a cave out of scraps. I mean, that is Tom Savini, right? Like you made the diver of special effects. He's my diver wishes. He's the Iron Man of special effects. He's a Tony Stark of horror. ah Not whores. That's literally I haven't seen Iron Man one in so long and I'll never just not say like,
01:01:38
Speaker
Tony Stark built it in a cave out of scraps! I had it on. I'm not Tony Stark, sir. I had it on work the other day. Yeah. I like the first two. Well, in November. I know the second one gets a lot of flack. I like the third one. I don't. I almost walked out. I didn't like it the first time I saw it, but I liked it a lot more later. It's got a lot more... Okay, maybe I'll... It's Shane Black. I know. Maybe I'll check it out again because I did only see it the once in theaters and was just like, that sucked. The second one gets a lot of flack.
01:02:05
Speaker
and it should get a lot of flack. It should. But the scene where you have War Machine and Iron Man back to back in the park is dope. That shit is dope. And I love me.
01:02:18
Speaker
Mickey Rourke? No, what was his name? Because they had Terrence Howard and then they changed it. Oh, yeah. Don Cheadle. Thank you. I mean, I think Don Cheadle does fantastic. Oh, you know why that changed? Oh, yeah, there's a whole Terrence Howard's an asshole. Yeah. Oh, I bet he is. He he was basically like it came down to like, well, you're going to pay me as much as you're paying Robert Downey Jr. You're not Robert Downey Jr. He was like, or we'll replace you. Yeah. Do bluff call to take I am irreplaceable. No, like you are Don Cheadle.
01:02:45
Speaker
ah Why would Disney, this is worked so off topic, but it's okay. Why is Disney so okay with replacing people, like recasting people in Marvel, but they refuse to recast anybody in Star Wars? They're just like, we'll make them AI nightmares instead. Yeah.
01:02:58
Speaker
Because Star Wars people. no Star Wars people complain about the A.I. nightmares. So they're going to complain either way. Exactly. there No, there it is. You're going to complain either way. So don't do A.I. nightmares. Yeah. I do like the first time I saw Peter Cushing brought back. I was like, oh, my God, that looks great. We watch it again. You can see all the fucking holes. Yeah. I mean, we're this month's next episode of Hantuk shots first will be Rogue One. It'll be my first time seeing it in a while. But I've seen clips of it and I'm like, that is not good.
01:03:25
Speaker
In the theater, I think I was just so excited. Yeah. I was like, oh, my God, they brought it it's so fleeting. But exactly. Exactly. But it's just like cast someone else. yeah You don't have Peter Cushing. Great. Or you don't have fucking Mark Hamill. Get somebody else. There are people who look kind of like them. Sebastian Shaw. Perfect.
01:03:45
Speaker
I gave you enough time to talk about Star Wars on this podcast. We're just talking about Disney right now. And I'll say this, Bucky, Sebastian Shaw, right? Or Sebastian Stan. Sebastian Stan, thank you. But yes, I knew what you meant. Sebastian Stan looks like a younger Mark Hamill. Less and less as the years go by, by the way, because he's getting older. Yes, I saw him because I had, again, Captain America. But there was a side-by-side fans were doing of him and of Mark Hamill. Make him fill in the blanks that we haven't seen between episode six and the sequel trilogy. Fill it in with him. You don't need to A.I. it. He looks he looks close enough. When Bucky came, when the Winter Soldier came out, I vaguely remember you saying, oh, they use the same actor. Didn't really pay attention. I saw it back in November or whatever because I had it playing at work and I was like, oh, shit, they really did use the same actor from Captain America. From First Avenger. Yeah, he was only in that for like five seconds. So I just assumed, OK, they cast somebody different. No, he's in it for more than five seconds. He's the whole fucking friendship. He's the best friend. He's the reason that movie exists. So tentacles. Oh, that's right. We're watching porn. So they get attacked by the tentacles. Ernie Hudson is holding this door and I was waiting for this door to chop him right in half. No fucking way. You know why? You saw him working out. Every scene that he's not like doing something active for the ship, he's working out with some weird mechanical thing, lifting weights.
01:05:05
Speaker
Oh, yeah. That sex machine is not broken. That sex machine is not broken. It's going to be. Oh, and I love when they're working out and Hector Elizondo is working out like he's doing like rowing stuff or whatever he's doing. And he's got like sunscreen on his nose and he's got the eye things on and he's under obviously under like a UV light. Yeah. And the Jesus tells him like you should wear what you're going to wear at the beach. He's like, oh, no. Yeah, I hate the beach. Yeah. So basically it's like me. He's like, no, I'm going to tan, but I'll tan in my shirt and shirt and shorts. Why do you think I'm living underwater right now? I fucking hate the beach. This is me getting away from sun. This is me not getting sad. I needed light on my face. I needed to feel the warmth of a sun. There's two things I hate in this world. The sun and my sun.
Final Confrontation and Realism
01:05:44
Speaker
I am down here for a fucking reason. That little wiener kid. It's 1989. All he does is play Nintendo.
01:05:49
Speaker
We didn't talk about how Cobb, ah ah Hector, he ja on yeah yeah um when he's they're checking the skin, he's like, it's not a herpes thing, right? I would not understand that. I do want to mention, you're telling me you were locked down there with these two smoking hot chicks. You came up with herpes. You're telling me nothing happened. I'm calling bullshit. I saw her in that towel, a smoke shot. Then she looks at them and she goes, it's fine.
01:06:15
Speaker
Yeah, I know that's me. Yeah, that's you are mistaking your marriage with another marriage. Because I mean, good God. Yeah, I mean, I would get it women. It's like I dated a girl who was like, oh, I would do things to Jason. Oh, I was like, sh I'd let it like just i look like. Yeah. Would you sit in the chair?
01:06:35
Speaker
with a cigarette in a darkly lit corner of yeah one of the room. Wearing a Superman costume? you bet No, oh, no, no, no. No, he's got baby Billy next to him. No, I'm wearing Batman. I'm wearing Darth Vader helmet. Oh, the lights start flashing really fast. Giggity, giggity. Luke, I need a towel. Do you ever bring baby Billy in your room? God, no. I don't need fucking chicks to make comparisons.
01:07:06
Speaker
But Ernie Hudson's holding the door open. ah The floor starts collapsing underneath Willy's. So she's having trouble getting out. So she the monsters creeping up on them real slow, even though later on it moves a little faster. But it's supposed to be scary. So I get it. And ah Peter Weller ends up saving her, getting her out. They all get out of there. The door he sets them on fire, doesn't he? Is that like I don't know. Oh, no, that's the no no, no, no, no, not yet. That's not yet. Yeah.
01:07:33
Speaker
it does them Still trying to like grasp for a plan yeah right before he leaves it grabs him and he grabs that little handsaw Yeah, I mean I swear the tentacle brought it to him You trying to reach for this here? Let me help you out real quick. This thing's got fucking kinks, too. It's like, oh, yeah, cut my arm off. I'll just regrow it. Yeah, you're just making another appendage to grow. And then it's it's made of his friends. That's how I breathe. Maybe their intelligence is in there trying to help. But I think it was just his foot. He just like he grabbed the edge of the thing flied toward him. That's what happened. Yeah.
01:08:05
Speaker
They're going to get in the suits and Peter Weller has to do the hero thing. So ah Willie and Ernie Hudson get into suits and he launches the little doodad. The other one is there's two little bays that go down to the things that put you out in the water. And one of them has been on the fritz. We don't see the doc get absorbed, but it's when that hand, the mouth hand gets him. No, no, we didn't see him get absorbed. him like on the He relegates himself to death. He's like got a tear in his eye like fucking bring it. Yeah, I just did he not know these suits did this? Because I feel like he would have sabotaged them as well. I didn't know the suits. to Oh, they attached something to the suits. Okay. I just don't think he knew because he's not a diver. Correct. he's Maybe he didn't. He's a really shitty doctor.
01:08:51
Speaker
Not a doctor. He patented some shit that people still use today. Yeah. Well, then he killed a bunch of people, too. But he gets them out and he stays behind to hold off the monster. ah This is when we get one of the cooler, like body horror things, because Peter Weller is trying to get to the other suits and he sees that Jesus's face is like. he kill me Yeah, this is where I liked it. So he's like is it oil? because that's like asley and they said Well, especially get on top of the water it's all yeah, that's all all all that's all oh yeah, I guess the only thing I don't like about the um Monster is the dangly tentacles cuz I'm thinking everything else is fine right like you just said this is the best This is the best. It's looked yeah
01:09:33
Speaker
Yeah, and like um I want to my multiple faces. I want to mine a Daniel Stern face either. And we will. We see Daniel Stern. and We see Bowman like, but their faces aren't moving. The only one we see animated is the Jesus's face. Yeah. And I presumably because they didn't. It's presumably it's because they didn't really see, but it not animated like not moving. he's Yeah. there Oh, is he? Yeah. OK.
01:09:55
Speaker
Because i I was assuming it's because like they didn't actually see the Jesus get absorbed or anything. So he's like he sees that because he even yells, there is whatever like, you know, so she's the Jesus. he and He doesn't do that. It's when Ernie sees the doctor and he's like, Doc.
01:10:14
Speaker
and And Weller's like, nope, let's fucking go. I don't know. You're not seeing what you think. You don't want none of that smoke. But when when the Jesus says kill me, he's like, got you, buddy.
01:10:26
Speaker
Yeah, say less fam like the lift keeps sticking he's trying to get down like It's the whole tension thing But of course it gets down But the monster sticks its face in to try to get him at the last minute and gets crushed by the he lift blood squirts on his mouth did so much blood sprays all of that so it was gnarly yeah it was awesome Um, and then the the whole base implodes on itself. And this is really fucking cool. Like, I don't know if they did like, I didn't see it. I didn't, I did a little bit of reading about behind the scenes. I didn't really see what this was. Was it stop motion? I mean, it might've been a stop motion thing. I don't know if they did like, cause these are obviously miniatures, the C lab here, like power and but like, I don't know if they did it inward or if they did like an inflatable thing and inflated it and then reversed it. But you can see the whole thing like sucking in and different points.
01:11:16
Speaker
like it's pretty fucking cool and it makes after a month of watching underwater disasters this makes the most sense because everything has an explosion other than water world all the underwater ones we did had an explosion and i'm like no it would implode because of all the pressure yeah everything else exploded it's cool Yeah, I mean, you still get you get the implosion, then you get an explosion once everything because the fuel presumably and all that stuff gets whatever. But the basic building is whatever the fuel gets. What it gets, whatever, man. Don't worry about it when you
01:11:59
Speaker
yeah than a big ba I do like because I was thinking about it just because we've been doing these movies all month. I wouldn't have thought about it otherwise. As the suits are going up and they have these like escape balloons attached to them that are pulling them up, I was like, these motherfuckers are all going to explode from decompression. Yeah. But they covered that real quick because inside the suits, there's like a little screen. It's like decompression, engaged, whatever. So the suits are doing it for them. ah And we know from watching some of these other ones and from being alive that like it doesn't happen that quickly.
01:12:27
Speaker
No, but for the purposes of the movie, it's but it's it's future 1989. Yeah, it's it works. They addressed it at least. So so somebody's like, do you got decompress? Just have the fucking visor say it. um Fine. Why did they eject from their suit so soon, though? It would only go that high.
01:12:47
Speaker
I think it was like, yeah, because like the decompression completed, so I think the suit, that was when the suit just did it. This is how you level out. Oh, so they had to press the eject. Yeah, I don't know. Because. There's a reason. I just don't know. Because tension. Yeah. The force. Yeah.
01:13:01
Speaker
Because once you get to the surface, you can't swim in that fucking suit. I do want to mention right before they get in the suits, it's funny because Ernie Hudson just kind of jumps in the suit. Yeah. But Willie is like, oh, we're getting in these suits. Let me strip down to my underwear real quick. I wish Ernie would it too. Equal opportunity. Let's see them Tony's. I bet he's wearing blue jockeys. Oh, yeah. real The real tight kind. I know. Always be able to guess a man's underwear. Did they have the short style?
01:13:27
Speaker
Boxer briefs? Yeah. No, not yet. Boxer briefs was later, I believe. Was that after the 90s? Boxer briefs is late 90s if I'm correct. I don't know a lot about underwear. I went from tiny whiteys to boxers. Never look back. Oh, boxer briefs are the way to go, dude. He still can't do briefs. I got these silky ones. You try not getting a boner when you run. I don't want to get a boner when I run. Don't run. I would never do. Why do you think I don't? Boners.
01:13:51
Speaker
ah But they get up to the surface, they shoot off some flares and so the ah the search helicopter can find them. Luckily for them, there was one nearby because they shot him off and the dude didn't see him. So this is where the message was. Like this must have been when he typed in like disregard fucking Dr. Troutman's and ah message. We are alive. We do need help. Yeah.
01:14:12
Speaker
And the guy's like, all right, we'll go take one pass. We'll take one more pass. Yeah. And then right before, like right before he sees the flare, it's like, okay, well disengaged. They're not there. Fuck it. And he's like, oh, there's a flare directly ahead of me.
01:14:24
Speaker
So he goes out to them, they get surrounded by sharks for a hot second. If Ernie Hudson's not doing the stunts, then somebody got really upset with how close his shark got, like pushed it off all panicky. I was like, yeah, me too, brother. Me too, man. And then, of course, as the helicopter arrives, the monster comes back up because it's a movie. And they have to fight off the monster. And this was the most disappointing part of the movie to me, because we're at the end of the movie.
01:14:52
Speaker
And I was like, okay, so Willie and Peter Weller are going to survive. The black man made it all the way to the surface. The black man made it. But then he has to fight the monster and the monster kills him. Yeah. And it's, I don't know. i The guy dying is one thing that's fine, but I just felt like it was so disrespectful to this like major character because it's like.
01:15:14
Speaker
There's this thrashing and there's the monster and there's this stuff. And it was just holding his head under water. Yeah, they just kind of show Ernie Hudson floating afterward, though. Like, like, like yeah, it's going down underwater. Yeah. And like I mean, the only reason they have him die right here, the only reason they had him live to die right here is so that he could have like, no, don't come after me. Save yourself. Yeah. Like he has to have that that moment. Yeah. Hero moment.
01:15:37
Speaker
The martyr moment. But Peter Weller has one of the charges they were using left because he had grabbed it earlier. And I hate this. And say, ah, motherfucker, and throws the bomb into its mouth. It's really tough. like it's It's hard to look tough.
01:15:52
Speaker
when you do a fucking fadeaway jump shot, like as your ending move. He doesn't do the Jaws smile motherfucker and then shoot it. He does like a fucking Kobe Bryant fadeaway. Whoop. Oh, in his face. Literally. Nothing but net. Nothing but mouth. nothing but mouth But I like what they they say. So they blow up the monster. They safely get back to this oil rig and make fosters there. And she's like, I knew you would make it. I'm sitting there. I believed in you the whole time. Yeah. Hunter, Hunter, Hunter. And he just walks up and she's like, how are you feeling? And he socks Meg Foster right in the fucking face. and He's like, better now. I wanted him to like go to Puncher and then Willy stop and like, don't fucking hit her. No, my job. But no, Peter Weller is like, watch this.
01:16:35
Speaker
pa I saw a review on Leviathan on Letterboxd, I mean, for this movie that was like. They didn't like the ending, like the last three minutes and like really would have liked it if it was like they get to the surface thing and then they just go full like Dawn of the Dead or Night of the Living Dead, where it's like this is Dawn of the Dead, where these people survive just to be murdered. Uh huh. Like the Meg Foster and her people are there and they just like shoot them all. And that's like, that's the end of the movie. Glad you made it. Oh,
Film Recommendations and Podcast Teasers
01:17:05
Speaker
no.
01:17:05
Speaker
Cover up everything, right? Yeah, because in this case now there's loose ends, but we don't know because the credits That's how you end a movie you punch Meg Foster in the face roll yeah those beautiful finish You give one of those beautiful eyes a black eye and you move on oh think how stunning that eye is with black eye like shocking So we'll go around the horn for recommendations wife I liked it. I don't know if it's because you've ruined me, but I didn't need any of your caveats. I had a husband, but that's my life now. She sounds sad about it. Yeah, right? It's my life now. I guess this is me now. No, it was a tight 98.
01:17:50
Speaker
Yeah, like I'm going to give it that no matter what. Feel felt like fast. Yeah, it it did. There was it was not as actiony as I would prefer, but I thought it went very smoothly. It wasn't too dawdling oh when they're underwater, like drilling and shit. Yeah, that was slow, but.
01:18:09
Speaker
I liked it. I feel like they barely do that. Yeah. Yeah. Maybe that's why. I said the pacing was great, I feel. And acting was wonderful. And I fucking give it a watch. It was my first go and I enjoyed it. I do recommend it, but barely. I think you wasted a really good cast.
01:18:29
Speaker
For the most for the most part Peter. Well, are you explained why he is the way he is and I actually accept that Yeah, cuz he's just he's a weird geologist man. He's a rock guy and not a rock-and-roll guy Ernie Hudson's doing what he can. um Oh god my favorite line from this movie fucking oh Megan Megan fo Foster Megan Foster old bright eyes herself. She's like look just sit tight for a little bit I know you've been through hell and he goes been through hell bitch. We still in hell He's just like, what are you talking about? Been through hell. There's an active monster on the loose right now trying to beat this door down. Fuck off. So, I mean, like, yeah, it's a wreck it's a recommend based on the fact that it does have that be whore film feel and very I think we talked about before we did this before when we first said we were going to do this. Aliens meets thing meets abyss. yeah Yeah. And lesser of all three, but still fun enough, I guess.
01:19:26
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I recommend it. I like this movie. um I think the beginning starts out a tad slow. They have like the the Jesus almost drowning thing just to kind of give you something at the beginning. Otherwise, just them walking on the surface of that, like just. Yeah, it's like, oh, that's the worst that's going to happen. And Whitney commented, Whitney commented there like.
01:19:45
Speaker
Why is everything moving so slow? And I'm like, because machines, that's how they do. machine Even in the very beginning, he's like, that's what I'm talking about. Weller put something in a thing and he pushes it up and it's like one centimeter every 10 seconds. It's got a deep water vise. No, it's not even that it's like a handheld thing in his office. Like he talked into a microphone, stuck it in its recorder and then pressed a button for it to Life moves a little slower under the ocean. Sure. But like besides the beginning where it starts out a little slow, I think like it kicked in pretty quickly and it just didn't really relent. Like it wasn't action packed, but there was always something going on. There was tension. The tension was high. There was something going on. I dug it.
01:20:28
Speaker
I like I like the monster. The tentacles were a bit weak, but the monster itself is cool. It's a minor thing. We see a little bit more of the monster here than we do in some of the other stuff we've watched. Not as much as I would like, but they do do more of the tease throughout, at least. you So, yeah. And I like Peter Weller. Obviously, I like Ernie Hudson, Richard Crenna. I mean, all these people, the girl, the girl that played Bowman, Alisa Ailbacher, I think I said her name was, it's back at the beginning of my notes, but rebo she was she was pretty. She was really good, too, like. She was good. She's just out of this movie gum chewing just as fast as Daniel Stern, which is a bummer. Yeah. I wanted to see Daniel Stern come back, I guess and monstrous. Yeah. Maybe that was really him on the set and they were just like, and you got to go. Yeah, no shit. It's like, dude, he's he's actually harassing me. Yeah, he's actually that was not even scripted, but we're going to put it in the show. He just put his hot dog in my buns and I didn't like it.
01:21:24
Speaker
But yeah, I'm going to give it a recommend. I like this movie. I think it's fun. Yes. There's a reason I bought it on 4K. Mine's a light recommend, but it's still fun enough.
