Starting point is 00:00:00 On tonight's episode we watched Ouija. Ouija. Ouija? Actually Ouija is the preferred pronunciation. By who? No one. On the dictionaries. On the dictionaries. Hey everyone, welcome to the Flophouse house I'm Dan McCoy and tonight Dan is joined by three spirits. I'm Stuart Wellington the scariest ghost and I'm Elliot Kaelin the shortest ghost and I'm Halle Haglyn the pile of bo bones. Oh no, okay, two ghosts and a pile of bones. She's disintegrated. That was that, that was that's it come. Two ghosts, a girl and a pile of bones. Not a good show.
Starting point is 00:01:16 Yeah, as has become a miniature Shocktober tradition. Hally, Hally is returned to be with us. Yeah, because she's a tiny. She's a tiny person. Um, with a big heart. Yeah, we're gonna find that out tonight, people. Hey, I said, I told Christmas episode. Right now for Halloween, it's called the very spooky
Starting point is 00:01:40 Halle Christmas. I'm not even like happy Halle days? No, it sounds too much like happy days. And it gets confused with Halle days. Halle's happy days tribute. When she plays all the parts, Halle gives us a taste. Hey, I'm talking over here. I'm a jealous, happy days.
Starting point is 00:02:04 Now, do Dwayne the Jammer? I'm gonna have to do the jambler. Can I empty your trash? Perfect. Dead on. 100%. Dead on. Now do the foreign exchange student Renaldo. Oh no.
Starting point is 00:02:19 What? That was the most questionable Olaf I've ever heard. I feel pretty pimped out right now, okay? You're pimped out. Look at those rams you got. She's got neon lights under her chassis. Yeah, that's called ground effects. We'll talk about Halley's chassis. There's a PlayStation 2 in her trunk.
Starting point is 00:02:40 That's not junk. In my junk. So. Tonight's sponsor, PlayStation 2. Go back in time and buy one today. Tonight's games are still usable. Tonight's sponsor, silliness. Like the concept of...
Starting point is 00:03:02 Is that like a syllabus company? Yeah, the concept of sill like a syllabus company? Yeah, the concept of silliness. Silliness. Silliness. Silliness. Yeah, just general hijinks. Okay, thanks for explaining me with silliness. So now that we've been goofballs, what do we do on this podcast, Daniel? Oh, very serious. We watch a bad movie, and then we talk about it.
Starting point is 00:03:24 And tonight for our final shocktober, in a month or one hour, or we already ghost. Final shocktober, we said that. This year in a shocktober that's brought us a cornucopia of shocktober episodes. Three regular episodes. Corpseucopia.
Starting point is 00:03:43 One crossover episode But this is the last one and we watched We just stop saying They don't even say we get in the movie you were even said you were saying we jeep before we got on the air Like I'm gonna be the cool. I want to press my boys And he's like we I want to impress my boys. Then he put out glasses and he's like, we job. Yeah, that's the coolest way to be.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Put on your glasses and start correcting people's pencil. People just glassed on after we watched the movie. He's like, the movie I found two blurry. I could read any of the credits or other on screen text. Thumbs down. Oh, what you need if it's a Ouija board. There is a lot of on screen text. That's true. Yes, no letters, goodbye, a moon, a sun, high friend.
Starting point is 00:04:35 Yeah, that's why I don't go Parker Brothers brand. That's why I don't like it. It's not. It's not a Ouija board is that you have. Is it Mattel? Which is it? Is it Parker Brothers, Mattel or... I thought it was Parker Brothers.
Starting point is 00:04:44 Okay. It's a board game and Parker Brothers is a board game company. Mattel is... You'd have to be bored to play this game. Hi-oh! Let's get to the movie. But it's not just like having subtitles. We have to read the movie. You have to spell the movie. Yeah, luckily they said everything. It's telling the story. No, but they would spell something out, but then they would say it out loud. And they would say it out loud much faster than I had been able to spell it. Because I was like halfway through and they're like, oh, thanks. Let's make it clear. There have been three different movies named Ouija in the past. So which one did we watch? We watched the most recent one from 2014.
Starting point is 00:05:19 We watched Big Top Ouija. After Ouija's Big adventure. Yeah, exactly. What a better movie this would be. It was called we just big adventure. It was about Peely Herman or just Paul Rubens out of character using a we did. Yeah, it was a ghost. And it was just him and I got I'm a ghost.
Starting point is 00:05:38 I know you are but what am I a ghost? I know you are but what am I? No, wait, hold on. I'm not answering the question. The large margin wouldn't be quite as scary now. No, you know she was the ghost right at the beginning. Yeah. Am I speaking to large margin? Yeah, okay, so I am great. Yeah, the little plan chat went on to WAAAA, exclamation point. I didn't even put an exclamation point on the Weegee board. Because they learned
Starting point is 00:06:04 the Weegee boards, whatever one learned, the text messages, which is if you don even put an exclamation point on the week of worst. Because they learned the Ouija boards, whatever one learned the text messages, which is if you don't put an exclamation point at the end, it sounds weirdly passive aggressive and like you're mad. Yeah. So the ghosts always have to put exclamation points. They didn't use to it. Yeah, they definitely added it, along with the emoticons that they added to the week of year.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Yeah, when they added that eggplant emoticons, that ghost could talk about their penis. That is funny though. So in Japanese ghosts could talk about their penises. That is funny though. So Japanese ghosts could talk about their penises. My Japanese in particular. Oh, I was thinking of that old urban legend that Japanese men have eggplants for penises. That's why kid Hickory is always fighting at eggplant wizard.
Starting point is 00:06:42 I played kid Hickory's when I was little. Wow, we have so much in common, man, Halley. You guys should get married or kill each other. I don't know what. Our play kid. What if that was the lamest ever attempt to single white female, somebody? That's why Kid Acris was like, I used to play Kid Acris all the time too.
Starting point is 00:07:00 And now I'm gonna stab us to let out through your eye. Happened in single white female. All my shoes untied I have to tell my shoe also So D.R.I.P. Steven Weber He died and single white female. He's still alive and really he's still alive in real life Yeah, he got that little through it. He's living off of that whip real money Dan you do know that when things happen to movies. don't usually happen in real life, right? What? Uh-oh. We've got a lot of educating of this guy. They do anyway have Dan have you ever heard of Santa Claus?
Starting point is 00:07:33 You mean Fred Claus is brother? Let's talk about Ouija, shall we? Okay, as it's shocking. Yeah, we probably should focus on the scares now It's based on the popular board game, which is not actually cares, which is my charity. The charity that helps homeless ghosts. Yeah. Ghosts without sheets. Ghosts without the most. Beetlejuice everybody. Ghosts without the most Beetlejuice. Any more Beetlejuice. Ghost. He's got more Beatles Jews. Ghost.
Starting point is 00:08:05 Weegee. It's the movie we watched. Let's explain what happens in it, okay? It's about a game. It's about a board game, yep? Yeah, it's based on the popular way to contact the dead that doesn't work, but it does work for girls' slumber parties, apparently. Now, the movie...
Starting point is 00:08:19 So we open on some little girls playing with a Weegee board. Yeah, and they tell us the rules of the Weegee board, which I've never heard before. Don't feed it after midnight. Don't get it wet and make sure. Protect. And if you can't be safe name it after me. By the way, I want to say that like, what, you name it Ouija? Yeah, and the rule, gas, grass, or asked, no one writes free. Yeah, and also you smell to you delta
Starting point is 00:08:49 And if you can't take the heat get out of the weepy and also the second amendment Okay, there's rules you need to know about the weepy board never use it alone never use it in the graveyard In order to be for the maintenance of a well-regulated militia, the right to bear on shall not be infringed, and also have fun. And don't forget, if you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch. And this is very important.
Starting point is 00:09:15 Do not tell mom the babysitter is dead. Use the Ouija board to contact the babysitter. She'll tell you when to go to bed. And no running. And also adults who are all kids out of the pool. She'll tell you when to go to bed and no running Also adults who call kids out of the pool runnings just full stop Now that movie with Dougie does no running Where they couldn't afford a Bob's Ledge they could go to the Olympics or John
Starting point is 00:09:44 Where John was that John candy? Yeah, John can he put so many weights in his pose and it just wouldn't move. That was really good. You really get into this cool run. It's a really deep dive into the cool run. No, I remember that was why he didn't win and he had to become a cool. It was a cheat it right? Because he cheated by putting a bunch of weights in his bobsled. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:01 Aw, sorry, my joke's got too accurate. Oh, come on. Come on. I mean, he's a national treasure, but he was a large man. I mean, he's Canadian treasures. It's the full nation. Technically. Now, Canadian treasures, don't worry. Canadian Nicholas Cage.
Starting point is 00:10:17 There's a treasure map A on the back of the. On the back of the loony. The sweet stuff. On the back of the back of the loony It's read something on the back of the document that says we're our own country because we never had a revolution or nothing Anyway, let's go find that treasure It's a bunch of can of slits You okay, dude Bob or Doug McKenzie National measure
Starting point is 00:10:46 So What that's actually get I want to back up though and say that I predicted when we're we're trying to figure out what movie We're gonna watch I predicted that out of the choices. How it was gonna choose we do because it's my theory We G women love weee boards. They do. I chose- LL Wee-jee boards. No, Halle, this is movie opens with two young girls playing with a Wee-jee board. It's their friends, Debbie.
Starting point is 00:11:14 I was not one of them. No, Halle was not a character in the film. That's a good point we should make, I guess. Debbie and Blaine are best friends and Blaine is not happy that she's a lane. Debian Lane. Blaine from 16 or no, from pretty amazing. Pretty and Campbell's. Now and Lane yells at her younger sister to go away.
Starting point is 00:11:37 It's like those, uh, we're going to talk about this movie. I'm going to give this movie. No, I'm gonna give the shortest plot so we have to. Norway, who does the ceremony at Christmas when they did their candles out there? What? That was the way it was. I can't decipher this one. That's, is this a Colorado thing?
Starting point is 00:11:58 All right, no, if you got free, the ladies out there, if you had, if you're meant to give him and you love, kick him to the curb. Also, can you tell me about this candle head thing? No, people remember, if you had American girls, it was Kiersten. I can't remember where she was from, but she had that outfit that was the candle on the head outfit because it was a tradition because she was an immigrant. I don't remember where from. And immigrant who died in a mysterious fire That was really up to you. That was really up to the owner of the dog.
Starting point is 00:12:31 Did she like a minor or something? Why is she a little candle on her head? No, it was like a special like some some Scandinavian way to celebrate Christmas. Christmas thing. Yeah, more in Christmas thing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Like a boost to no else. Now there's no more appropriate time to talk about Christmas traditions than during the
Starting point is 00:12:51 Halloween episode. I told you. The one that we literally get up on Halloween. This is the least spooky shot to ever episode we've ever done. Some of those have chain sound effects on there. They're going to be chain sound effects and creaking doors through this whole thing. So that's a scary witch. That was so frightening. Anyway, so these two girls are playing with the Ouija board, Halley. When you were a little kid, like at sleepovers, did you use the
Starting point is 00:13:13 brain? Yeah, I like back in the conversation. But at least it's relevant. Like this is a thing that I as a male child never did. You didn't play it with Ouija board? No, I contacted the spirits by killing small animals and pouring their blood onto the altar I carved. But so was this the thing that girls actually do in my kids? Yeah, we had a Weeji born. We played Weeji. Weeji.
Starting point is 00:13:34 Did you contact anything? No, it never like worked for me. Yeah, like you're playing the nice, qualified. It's your problem. I've must've been doing it wrong because this plastic board never contacted the did. I don't know what turned the spirits off to me.
Starting point is 00:13:49 I don't know. I need to read a book about what spirits really want. I mean, you just, you didn't say last October that you really wanted to see a good one. I know, and I said it to you again on the subway today, not joking. You were like, what are you gonna do for Halloween? And I was like I said it before and I'll say it again. I want to see you go
Starting point is 00:14:16 Not busting not hunting. I'm like a watcher. I'm like a bird watcher. I appreciate You're like you're a hunter in the same way that a mill funder is a mill funder. I appreciate. She's an enthusiast. You're like, you're a hunter in the same way that a mill funder is a mill funder. He's not killing the mills. Whoa. So, we do board. So, we do board.
Starting point is 00:14:34 So, we do board. So, we do board. Cut to its, you know, eight years later, however long, their teenagers in high school now. And one of those girls is immediately breaking the rules by playing by herself. She's playing Ouija board by herself. She's trying to say goodbye to somebody.
Starting point is 00:14:49 And does it work? She and her friend is talking to her. Lane is talking to Debbie on the phone and she's like, hey, you're going to come to the game? No, no. And I don't remember if we ever found out why Debbie, did she break up with her boyfriend or something? Like why would she?
Starting point is 00:15:02 She just like, she won't come out of our house. She just wasn't feeling like it she had left overs She had to play the leftover and I guess it's because she wanted to deal with this ghost Yeah, too busy I don't want to go to the big game because she's busy with this ghost problem She sits down for leftovers the lights are flickering the door opens the stove turns on She goes up to use the Ouija board and it's like no She had already thrown the Ouija board in the fire. Oh, that's right. I'm sorry, I didn't accept. She had, you said goodbye on the Ouija board thrown in the fireplace,
Starting point is 00:15:28 went to sit down and eat her leftovers. Uh-oh, the door opens. It's smokiness. The fire turns on. She goes up to her room. The Ouija board is there. What? And then, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, but like you couldn't, you could see them if you hold up a ghost monocle. Yeah. So she's the most deffron ghost. This is a monocle floating in the air, maybe a top hat. So she holds that thing up. Mr. Peanut. She holds that thing up and, uh, and her eyes, her eyes totally milks over. Yeah, she looks like storm using her powers. Mm-hmm. And then she reaches up and gratt takes. Or the Lord Fnanny at any point. It was, or the Lord Fnanny. Melky. Or the Lord Fnanny. Or the Milky Eyes. Little or no pupils. Little or Fnanny was always using her weather in the comic towers.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Oh, I was like, I'm not talking about Annie. No, they fitted the girl playing Annie for all white contact ones. That would love that. If it was like, they deemed it too painful and do scary. It was like Robert Altman's pop-eye level of like trying to be like a talk.
Starting point is 00:16:46 So she has no pupils, she's constantly getting kidnapped and everyone hates Roosevelt. So it would go then. And Daddy Warbox is a huge war profiteer. There was a whole series, he died in the comic strip and then after FDR died, Daddy Warbox came back and he was like, well, I don't have to be in hiding anymore now that that man is dead. It was like, that's I don't have to be in hiding anymore. Now that that man is dead. That's terrible. That was the president. Even if you disagree with the man, have respect for the office.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Anyway. He was the Tony Stark's dad of his day. Uh, uh, I didn't know. There's a more prominent here. I mean, okay. Was he also like a scientist? I guess was in your work part. And his son is Iron Man?
Starting point is 00:17:24 No, he's Iron Man. Iron Man. Iron Man. Iron Man. Of course. Although that sounds like Mani from modern families. And Sandy was a war machine. So Sandy is a dog. I gotta say that's a pretty great mashup right there. So Laurie in this movie. So we're like two minutes in. You're never fully dressed without a suit of armor. Okay, so she is now possessed.
Starting point is 00:17:49 She takes her string of Christmas lights, hangs herself with them. In the first of many shock cuts that Spookhally out loud, I find it. They didn't dispute me, they got damn, they got stupid. They were a couple of people. They were a couple of times when people were like, Hey, and jump out of nowhere. And it was doing genuinely good jumpouts.
Starting point is 00:18:07 But I like about watching a harm move with Halleys. Excuse me, I had to pop up. It's trying to cry. But I was too shocked to have that. I love the experience of watching the move with Halleys too much. Every, I would love about watching a harm move with Halleys. Every scare, she goes, ah, until a certain point in the movie
Starting point is 00:18:25 where she just stops giving a shit. And she is so fed up with the movie. And she's just like, I'm so getting angry. She's like, just do the thing, bitch. Come on, just go and do that stupid thing. Like, I love it. And I can never quite pinpoint when the switch has happened,
Starting point is 00:18:41 but no when it happens when she starts talking. If anyone has the chance to watch a horror movie with Helen, go ahead. Maybe it'll be a prize in the contest. Now she, so she's dead. Her friends are devastated. They go to a diner the next morning for breakfast. They order her pancake with the words. They thought she was coming.
Starting point is 00:19:00 They had arranged prior to me. We understand what the pancakes with the works look like. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, There's just like a stake on top of it with mashed potatoes. There's one of those gold leaf things on it. It doesn't even have any flavor, it's just to be extravagant. It comes with a ceremonial goblet and plate. You keep the, that's why it's so expensive. That's the thing. It's not really a $10,000 pancake. It comes with a $10,000 brace.
Starting point is 00:19:43 You get a picture if you put on the wall. He ate the big cake with the work. Some breaks. On the wall, under a title that just says idiots. But they cover up the what it says when you're there. Oh, yeah, you're on a wall of fame. Ah, anyway, they're all devastated by the death of their friends. They don't know what's going on. She goes and get take is that we're introduced to like a cast of cool hip teens, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:11 You got the guy who kind of looks like Patrick Dempsey. That's Lane's boyfriend. You got the dude who travel. There's kind of looks kind of weird kind of looks like the guy from Chronicle. Yeah. Yeah. And that's Debbie's exfriends. Now that she's dead I think he's free to start a people now and then there's also a lane sister who's grown up to be kind of a wild child And there's also their friend whose name I don't remember who is the one
Starting point is 00:20:37 Is about the waitress is a bell the ethnic waitress. Yeah, Isabella waitress, Cini Like Isabella Rosalini. I got you. But she's a waitress. It's an idea for a show. Okay, who's gonna be the star? Isabella Rosalini. Okay, who does she play? Isabella Waitressini.
Starting point is 00:20:56 It's loosely based on her story, except instead of being a popular model and actress, what if she's a waitress? Okay. But her mom is still angry, Bergman. There won't be any weirder than those bug videos she makes. Here's the twist. Instead of her dad being, Roberto Rosalini, the director, her dad was Fernando Rosalini,
Starting point is 00:21:13 a dynamo, an owner. Weird that his last name's not Waitressini. No, no, she's his mother's maiden name. England's husband, Waitressini. It's very ironic. So they all get together and they're like, well, what's the difference between? Waitressini and Prozone.
Starting point is 00:21:32 That's not even my question. What's the difference between England Bergman and Ingmar Bergman? Well, they're two totally different people. They're both, they have, they're one is a man and one is a woman. One was a director and the other was an actress. Wait, is Ingmar Bergman the one who puts the women with huge tits in his movie? No, that's that's Ross Meyer No, no, it was a sign filled episode, right? Remember at their
Starting point is 00:21:56 Okay, we are getting really off-site. I'll say but the ladies you know what I'm talking about They don't stop getting the ladies to help you out from this Ladies, Colin. You do not know what she is talking about. The full lines are open. Colin, if you know what she's talking about, Inmar Berkman. Wait for your call.
Starting point is 00:22:15 You put many beautiful women in his movies. They were not known for their enormous busts. There was a such an episode about all the waitresses that were being hired at their diner had huge boobs And they kept me like it's like we're in an Ingmar Bergman film. I think that was like an ingrid Bergmar film Bergman was not a smart man. They were saying we're not saying Russ my We're not saying more Bergman Okay, Dower films about man's inability to find the truth in a universe without God all right
Starting point is 00:22:43 Although often it would be about the importance of religious faith just in a bleak world. It's like the kings of boobs in persona. You can forget the famous scene in the seventh seal. We're at the man place just with boobs. Sam has a bikini car wash. Max, my side, oh, has to defeat death at a wet t-shirt contest.
Starting point is 00:23:07 Max Web Saito has to defeat death at a wet t-shirt contest. Anyway. This is approaching my Bobby Yagamar Bergman did make one movie with Ingrid Bergman, Autumn Sonata, which is a very good movie. Do you think they talked about using your Ouija boards? They had to. It had to come up. The fact that people get the mixed-ups somehow, even though they're different genders and they do different things. Do you mean?
Starting point is 00:23:41 But okay. So everyone said, at the funeral for her friend, funeral for her friend, the post death of Superman storyline. They, Debbie's mom gives Lane this kind of box of junk and is like, hey, would have wanted you to have this random shit. But in it is... This penguin keychain, Debbie love this penguin keychain. That's one of the items we know of in it are the penguin keychain and the Ouija board, right?
Starting point is 00:24:07 That's the kind of stuff we leave behind when we die, guys. That's the Ouija board just shows up in her house, right? Or something? Or they go to the key? No, she finds it in her friend's house. In her friend's house. I thought it was in the box for some reason. Anyway, she decides she wants to get in touch with her friend. She's going to use the Ouija board with her friends
Starting point is 00:24:26 in Debbie's parents' house, because Debbie's parents have left to get over their grief. And they asked her to watch the house in the best friend's house. They were just taking place. Because this is just looking very skewed. This whole movie takes place in the town that dreaded parents.
Starting point is 00:24:39 There are, well, that's the lane's dad leaves on a business trip at the beginning of the movie. Debbie's parents leave and go somewhere else. The other parents are never seen. There's almost no adults in the movie. Yeah, exactly. It's like the children in the corn town. Children in the corn town.
Starting point is 00:24:58 It kind of, yeah, it's a place where everyone, well maybe they're living in Logan's run. And the parents were all going to get killed because they were over 30. So they left the town, because if you stick around, you'll get killed after when you hit 30. Yeah, yeah, in Logan's run town.
Starting point is 00:25:13 Yeah, that seems like a mistake. It's in the town chart or there's nothing you can do. Oh, okay. So they use the Ouija board and they contact someone a ghost who says their first initial is board and they contact someone a ghost who says their first initial is D and they say they're goodbyes and it's actually kind of a heartfelt scene.
Starting point is 00:25:30 Yeah, yeah, yeah. And as I said while we're watching it, that would be a very powerful experience to have, to finally say goodbye to your friends that who died before their time. Yeah, to say like, see you at the crossroads. Yeah, I thought that was weird when you said that. I thought that was weird when you like that, that was such a powerful moment. Well, it wasn't a powerful moment in the movie
Starting point is 00:25:48 But it was like I would be even life. Yeah, I could imagine myself if you if you were in that situation You actually thought that someone was talking to you. Yeah, if a friend of yours if someone you were close to Died before they should have and you contact them and be on the grave and you say I never got a chance to say goodbye I miss you and they somehow somehow communicate it back to you. It's like if you met that ghost, you're always talking about. But she didn't get to say, it was just like, I never got a chance to say bye.
Starting point is 00:26:13 So bye. I'm not saying they did it well in the movie. I'm saying in real life, that would be very bad. It's not like in the movie ghost. What matters is how you treat people when they are alive. Not when they're dead, okay? Well, ladies, no matter what. Good point.
Starting point is 00:26:31 Anyway, from that point on, all sorts of spooky junk starts happening. Which one of them gets killed first? Isabel. Isabel is a bell is the waitress. Yeah, she's about to take a nice bath and then starts fucking flossing, which teenagers love to do in this movie. All of them in one place or another, the phrase high friend appears.
Starting point is 00:26:52 And that's what the ghost said to them when they first used the Ouija board. And like, it's written on one's car window, it's carved into a desk, it's written on in chalk in crime alley, where Trevor decides to walk his bike through and pass a spooky hobo's basket written on in chalk and crime alley where Trevor decides to walk his bike through and passed a spooky hobo's basket and shopping cart full of cans.
Starting point is 00:27:10 You know what would have been better if when she met, I'm jumping ahead a little bit. Sure. But if when she went to the, when Lane went to the Asana's Island and she met that woman who used to live in the house. This listeners, this all makes sense when I get to that part of the plot. If she had said, if that woman had said high friend at some point, yeah, okay, that was a nice way.
Starting point is 00:27:31 No, it was a little bit better. Yeah, I'll send that you should send those punch-up notes to Michael Bay's Platinum Dooms Company. All right. His Platinum Dooms Michael Bay's company. I thought Hayes was the one with the tree getting hit by a lightning bolt. No, the tree brokeheimer.
Starting point is 00:27:43 Yeah, okay. That's lightning tree productions. Lightning tree productions. I don't know why it was mad when I said that, Stuart. I apologize. Yeah, you seem really worked up. Are you going through something, Elliot? Jerry Brockheimer and I broke up.
Starting point is 00:27:57 Oh, okay. And I wanted custody of the tree and he wanted custody of the lightning. And it was just hate to separate them. They strike so well together. So where are we? So they get the message high friend appears over it. And there's one scary moment here for me where. Where you thought you started contemplating your own more childy.
Starting point is 00:28:17 Yeah, I thought I was having a heart attack lately. You're like, I spent so much time in my life watching this movie and I'm living my family right now. Not a time on this spinning globe. On my deathbed, am I really gonna regret not having seen Ouija? And I'm like, where Isabella is going to her car after work? And there's a flyer on it. Oh, I thought you were gonna say that because she's carrying a bag of trash over her shoulder.
Starting point is 00:28:41 And you're like, he the fuck does this? Yeah, it's gonna get trash juice all over your clothes. She's wearing your nice clothes at that point. Yeah, she's wearing a tuxedo with tails. She's wearing her street clothes. She's not wearing like her uniform. No, that's true. And she's holding a garbage bag over a shoulder in a way
Starting point is 00:28:54 that she's guaranteed to get crap on her. Yeah, garbage juice. And Stuart, you made a very good point that it's restaurant garbage. Probably a some broken glass in there. Broken glass, maybe a French fry or some kind of grease probably probably by the AIDS needles in there yeah it's a lousy with them yeah yeah because it's that kind of
Starting point is 00:29:15 dime allows these appropriate because there's probably louses that's the plural that word you said carbon rods from a nuclear plant. Yeah, why not? Just throw it in. That's how you get pancakes with the works. And probably just like a gremlin, still alive. Just trying to get out of the bag. So there's a flyer and she roves it and says high friends on the window. And then high friends, sorry, a high friend on the window and a hand suddenly from inside the car
Starting point is 00:29:46 Slaps the window and she opens the door and there's nobody there, which is crazy. Why would he open the door trying to give her a high? I saw that I would be like fuck this. I'm going back inside. Yeah, I'm gonna leave I'm gonna blow up this car I'm gonna left. I love as this car Wait a minute, that's what happened. I love his diet and a plane crash. No, she didn't she burn that was a lead. She didn't she. Oh, I think left I love his to do. Did she like her boyfriend's con fire? Oh, I don't know. I thought it was her. Lister is right. And if you know the backstory of TLC, I'll see. The lines are open. Calling right now. Yeah. I'll check. Yeah, just call my number.
Starting point is 00:30:22 It's a one, two fake street. Any town you wanna say the phone. His number is one eight hundred. You can sue me a text. 1-800-New-York-New-York.com. I thought she was the one who, uh, littered boyfriend, her NFL boyfriend's car on phone. That's possible. Anyway, but that was a-
Starting point is 00:30:41 You can't die in a plane crash also. Not just Julia. Okay, so I've looking at like two people died from languages I'm actually gonna tell me that Leonard Skinner died in a plane crash. He did But that was a creepy moment just like I'd like a hand and you don't know the owner of this hand is and just slaps the window and But she opens the door. There's no yeah It's one of like many decent jump scares this movie uses. Yeah, the other one where they had the the boyfriend investigate the mystery of the pool
Starting point is 00:31:10 tarp. And that's what she is strangely not attached properly. So we're watching this. We're like that. That is going to fucking drown in there. Right. And so while he's filling with the pool tarp, it cuts to lane. Let's just make it clear. Unlike other tarps we've talked about on the show, there is not any sort
Starting point is 00:31:29 of low budget lesbian or GT taking place on it. This is a regular pool tarp. And so lane is- She didn't die on a plane crash. She died in a car crash. Then I feel bad. I'm sorry. Did she light her boyfriend's car in fire? We'll find out. We'll get back to that in a sec. Look it up. And if anyone was offended by that, I was not referring to her death in the car crash. Ten issues. When she set fire to, you know, Andre Rycens, ten issues in a bathtub. Oh, no, it's not that.
Starting point is 00:31:52 It's a real fire, right? Which ultimately spread to the mansion in the chair. Oh, yeah, I got her. So yeah, she really buried the lead so most of the ten issues. So it was a house I was thinking of not a car. I apologize. I think I. So yeah, she really buried the lead so much on the tennis shoes. So it was a house I was thinking of not a car. I apologize. I think I was thinking of what's the movie where the woman lights your boyfriend's car on
Starting point is 00:32:11 fire, at least cheated on her or something. Um, the big love asking, all those fish in his car, that's not the same thing at all. Fish represent water, which is the opposite of fire. There was a tiger woods wife where she she's that's not a movie. There's that that that astronaut lady drove across the country in a dive. That's not what I'm talking about. No, those are all mostly big. There's not moving cars. We're one of the poor girls who set up fire horrifying sentient cars. A dystopian nightmare future world, where cars are taken over.
Starting point is 00:32:50 So Isabel goes home, she runs a bath, she starts flossing as anyone would right before they take a bath, especially when you're a teenager. And suddenly her mouth gets sewn up and her eyes cloud over and you think she's going to drown in the bathtub instead, she's levitating and then she falls and hits her head on the sink. That's how it kills her So the ghost yeah covers its tracks now where I can't remember the order the movie have we already seen the ghost by this point or no no Okay, so that's when they contact the ghost they find out the ghost is there's two ghosts There's a girl who's had her mouth sewn shut and there's an older woman who is presumably the ghost ghostly mother No, it's it's not presumably
Starting point is 00:33:26 They tell it's told through the Ouija board mother is Oh, that's right mother. Yeah, they spelled out and then everyone's like M O T H E R mother. Yeah, it's like get out of here and they're like why is there a ghastly ghost coming and then they're like Oh, and it's like mother. It's like, you should have just left when they said get out. I wish that instead that they were like, let's name women until the Ouija board tells us we've got the right one. Who's coming?
Starting point is 00:33:52 Is it Nea Peoples? No. Is it Jada Pinkett Smith? No, no, it's not. Mariska Hargote. Is it the late Georgia O'Keefe? No, it is not. All right.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Oh, come on. Chelsea. Is it a scaperate? No. Hillary Clinton. No. Dean himself. Is it the kid from Beasts of the Southern Wild? I don't remember her for a while. For the Carlo? I sort of alighted the work a little bit. I guess so. So anyway, so yeah, they know that there's a ghost
Starting point is 00:34:24 with an evil mother. And the teens get start getting picked off one by one Just in dumb ways and they've clearly opened a door to something they can't control. Yeah, exactly. It's a regular hell razor wishmaster type situation Only if only it was any of those three things he said Even the gate. Yeah, okay, the gate and gate to things he said. Even the gate? Yeah. The gate and gate too, sure, fuck that. What about house? Speaking of house, Danian. I totally watch house over this movie.
Starting point is 00:34:51 And house two, the second story. John Rantzenberger. What? I mean, house two, the second story. That is one of the best subtitled versions. For people. Nothing's scarier. It's not a bungalow. It's not a ranch house. That's what it means. I thought it was just saying it's the second story in the series. There's so many meanings to this. So many levels you were going to say, right?
Starting point is 00:35:19 Like levels in a house. I wish I had that would be so good. in a house. I wish I had that would be so good. And I'll, you'll be opening. So the kids are getting killed one after another. They decide they're going to investigate. They do some very not-throw archive skimming. And they find that in the house. They find a bunch of super fake looking old newspapers. They find a bunch of Photoshop newspapers like you would get at a carnival that would say like, world's greatest lover. Most terrifying bandits captured.
Starting point is 00:35:49 Yeah. Because I'm sure of you with a bandail in front of your face. And holding up for some reason, a penny from that year to prove your time traveler or something. So much backstory for your carnival photo. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:04 Yeah. Now, they, and they find out that the house had, there was a mother and two daughters there. One of the daughters went missing, and the mother was suspected in the disappearance, but no charges were pressed, and the other daughter killed the mother and was thrown in an insane asylum. And that was 40 years, 50 years earlier, 60 years earlier. No question mark. I wasn't quite sure what time period was supposed to be happening in. But I know from one of the other articles on the fake newspaper that candidates were picked
Starting point is 00:36:33 earlier than usual. It didn't sit the headlines is not much clearer than that. Anyway, Lane decides it's time to do a little detective work. She goes to the crazy people home for the criminally crazy bones and she finds the sister, bump, bump, bump, who functions as an exposition dump. And she says, And doesn't seem crazy at all, by the way.
Starting point is 00:36:56 She's well, Totally normal, or so we think. Super cogent at least. She's like, oh, hey, you're coming to visit? Oh, like it's crazy. So do you want a bunch of information on how the deal with this fucking ghost let me tell you about like how I grew up it was you know wasn't easy looking back now I understand how hard it was for a single mom that you can
Starting point is 00:37:18 care to rowdy kids but at the time how can you know you just overscans you know I better call my mom. Do you have a Ouija board on you? No! Anyway, go to the side of that ghost. And she says that, oh well, my sister became, my sister, my mother got into sayances, my sister became a medium, and the demons started talking through all the time, and she couldn't stop talking and babbling their evil spirit stuff.
Starting point is 00:37:45 So our mother sowed her lips shut and then killed her, I guess. Yeah, something like that. And so I killed my mother in revenge and now I'm here eating jello every day and I get to sit around in my pajamas in a wheelchair. Believe it, crazy. This is the life and she just starts singing a weird, a weird alianca big songs.
Starting point is 00:38:03 And then she's like, bring me another Jello and the nurse is like, you're cut off. I was like, leave the bottle. Jello, you're a porous smile. Leave me a entire bottle of ox. I'm just like, I just like, sleeves of Jello.
Starting point is 00:38:18 I'm glad you guys overlooked that I was about to say Woody Al Yankovic before. But I do want the listeners to write in what they think a Woody Allen, we all yankovic mashups song. I mean, it would basically be Johnny Dangerously, right? I guess the song, you mean? Yeah, well, this is the life is from Johnny Dangerously. Yeah, yeah, that's true, but it's not like Woody Allen has a real connection.
Starting point is 00:38:39 He's not in Johnny Dangerously. No, he doesn't play Johnny Or Dangerously. So wait, oh, I guess that,, no that was Joe Piscopo, that I said no. It's kind of a mistake, a lot of people make it. Very similar. Okay, so basically, she went through this. So the lady is like, you've got to release her.
Starting point is 00:38:55 She's like my mom's the evil one, my sister is not. And so you've got to free my sister by cutting the strings on her lips and she can stop my mom because the mom left the body in the house. It turns out the number two rule of using a Ouija board, never do it in a graveyard.
Starting point is 00:39:12 Uh oh, because there was a corpse in the house that counts as a graveyard. Yep, the referee allows it. People died all over the damn place. I mean, if we're gonna do it that way, like, you know, I was probably like caveman bones under his right now. I think it's the presence of a of the body, not the fact that someone died there.
Starting point is 00:39:31 All right. I know we live in a in a nonstop abattoir that is this planet or is. Yeah. Oh, that's true. But, I think it's just because the body was there. And most, you don't know this, but whenever I'd been able to do this. But also a non-step arboreum.
Starting point is 00:39:48 You know, he put a plug in his spit on this. One comes out of the other, you know? Nope, not at all. One person decays and then a tree springs up. Then we get the giving, especially here, yeah, in Brooklyn. Yeah, we're that tree grew. It's named Treemore. The Treemore.
Starting point is 00:40:05 The Tree King. It looks like... It looks like Treemore. I wish that now the HBO, when they were selling Trimae, and it's like a suddenly Trimae. Anyway, she goes, okay, we gotta go cut the threads on this, on this corpse's mouth. Let's do this thing.
Starting point is 00:40:25 And her friends are like, shit, let's do it. And they're like, we got no other choice. This ghost is stalking the crap out of us. They go and they go like, no, but it's GGIF. Yeah, I want to watch it. It's a must see TV over here. And for the strangers, the later seasons, you know, when they were living with their wives in that house But she was like no sorry To you owe it because there was no time no sorry. It's not the 90s
Starting point is 00:40:59 Can't do that anymore you can't do that on television anymore We wanted to go down to the Museum of Television Radio and recreate a TGIF lineup of one Friday night. If you ever do, we're gonna go to the stage. No, that'd be pretty fun. We're gonna reunite the cast of everything. We're gonna reunite the cast of every show all the way back to Captain Video and Playhouse 90 through to the hits of today as Ugly Betty ever met, ever met Make Room for Daddy. Now they will. It's the biggest television panel in history. What about my two dads and my three sons? There's five of them right there on stage, all of them.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Kill against Ireland and fantasy Ireland, yep. I love Lucy and I love the 80s. They're right there. What do I think? Twilight Zone and the new Twilight Zone? On one stage. And the cast of Sisters. What does that say? Yeah. Yeah
Starting point is 00:42:12 Damn I like watching Dan Lam with this one Is it starting off again for real? Part of it is that it's genuinely funny and part of it is that it's like the perfect Halley show. That's true. I just imagine Halley you writing daily show scripts every day and you're like, why aren't my jokes about the show's sisters getting on the air? Maybe you don't have to imagine that because this is happening. Ha!
Starting point is 00:42:47 Maybe my empty nest material will make it on. Ha! I have definitely been joking about both of those shows. Ha! Ha! Ha! And I am even less hope now with Trevor. Ha! Recently, Halle and I were both talking about how we both watched the show, Dear John. Okay. And like, about how we were like,
Starting point is 00:43:06 as a child, what did we see in this show where it's about Judd Hirsch dealing with the divorce and the support group? I don't know, you need some chilling vision of your future, I guess, I don't know. Alright, thank you. That was right because of that thing, sorry. Anyway, so, I just meant that in a general sense. Sure. Yeah. Yeah, that you look like Jud Hersh.
Starting point is 00:43:31 You should be flattered. And you got a ton of letters. He was an independent day. Yeah. Sure. No, I think you can Jud Hersh. For 100 Alex. You got it.
Starting point is 00:43:42 I had a great person. The star who appeared in taxi and who is cheddar? We really should have made this category harder We have to we should like they're dying to know what happened next. Okay, so they find They find the secret compartment room in the basement inside is the daughter's corpse. The daughter's ghost appears. Look at a couple of blue gems on her eyes. Yeah, all sorts of spooky stuff.
Starting point is 00:44:10 It's set up like a sands or as with a chalkboard with writing on her a story. It said it was it was the menu. What do you mean you're the hipster restaurant? The friends were getting knocked about the place by I assume the mom's ghost. Mm-hmm. But and Lane is taking. Ghost mom. Yeah, they're sequel to ghost ad. Surprise that movie, uh,
Starting point is 00:44:29 Generator sequel at this point. Yeah, well, it's in production now. Somebody in Hollywood just heard that Bill Cosby was in the news. They didn't read the story. They're like, get me Leonard Parts 7, get me ghost mom, get me, did he make any other movies?
Starting point is 00:44:42 He made all those movies in the 70s. Yeah, mother, Jackson, or whatever. Yeah. Let's do it again. Who was speed, uh, assaulting women? Yeah. Speed. A counter. And again, and he was really young when mother, Jackson speed was made.
Starting point is 00:44:59 So it was it was Rock L. Welch, Bill Cosby, and baby, Keanu Reeves. Hard to Jim Hanson's Keanu Reeves. Hard to dim hands and skinnery, baby. Little Kiana. Little, little Kee. So, they managed to stop, they managed to do it. She cuts the threads on the corpse. The girl, the girl ghosts is allowed to scream
Starting point is 00:45:18 and she screams the mom ghost into dust. Case closed, but there's still like 20 minutes left in this movie. Is this gonna pull a ring? Yeah, everyone guessed, everyone made the same guess. They're like, oh, they're gonna pull a ring on us. Yeah. Pulling a ring on somebody means that you think you helped the right ghost, but it turns out you helped the wrong ghost.
Starting point is 00:45:37 I thought it meant someone was gonna propose to me. So the 20 minutes, the 20 minutes, the movie was very different from me. It was just darting her eyes around the room, wondering which of us was going to pop the question. Like nervously being like, which one of these people do I have to turn down? Oh, I thought which, so who will I spend the rest of my life with? Is one of those things, Rich, you like through a bunch of letters
Starting point is 00:45:57 up in the air to see what the initials of your, of your future husband would be? Sure. She was looking at herself in a compact. Oh, you used a Ouija board to figure out the secret. Okay, and what's probably a mistake? What did it tell you? X, I.
Starting point is 00:46:08 My husband's name will be yes. No, it's not. That's what his name will be. Parker Brother. I'm going to marry one of the Parker brothers or both of them. The future is very liberal. So it turns out she goes back. So they're one of their Debbie's ex-boyfriend.
Starting point is 00:46:27 He gets killed. Same way, eyes cloud over and how, what was his death all about? He got, he goes into his room and she's like chilling. Oh, Debbie is like. And he's like, Debbie? But you're Debbie. And Debbie turns into evil girl ghost and she screams him into dust and his lips get all
Starting point is 00:46:48 sewn up. Oh yeah, yeah, she didn't scream in a dust. That comes later. Oh, his eyes clout over and he gets his lips all sewn up and he gets zombified. We're taking four fucking hours. So is there a way to just skip to the very end of this? So Lane goes to the crazy house. She says, you set me up. We helped her and we helped the wrong ghost and she was like, she'll now she says, you set me up. We helped her and we helped the wrong ghost. And she was like, she'll now she'll do things for me. And so they have to go. She finds out from her abuela that you have to destroy the Ouija board and the corpse. We did, we did forget that. Yeah, that she has a Ouija board in her room and her, her
Starting point is 00:47:22 vaguely ethnic grandmother finds it. Is that her grandmother? I thought it was her cleaning room. She only got to see her. She's cleaning on a suitcase. That's the reason why I think. But also, like, I assume that it was like, is there gonna be like a vaguely ethnic housekeeper that like tells her like, you should not be dealing with these things? And then immediately that's what she said.
Starting point is 00:47:45 Yeah. So she only fears twice in the movie. One is to say don't play with Ouija boards because being an immigrant, I have a connection to mystical things. Yep. And the second time to say, oh, we need to destroy the Ouija board and the corpse.
Starting point is 00:47:59 And it's like, why don't you talk to her earlier about this? And then the third time to say, how's keeping? How's it hitting? Sure. She talked to her earlier about this and then the third time to say housekeeping I was saying because they they marginalized her and it was sick in the movie Yeah, and I just wanted to hide in that to shame them. Thank you. I think the ladies know what she's talking about I think Las Ninius. Oh, I guess that's girls, not like. I guess Las Chicas started. They gave Joab no. No?
Starting point is 00:48:30 No. No. So they go back to the say-out dungeon. The ghost is tossing everybody around, throwing them up and down. And they man, she, and so the ghost is attacking Lane's sister, who we haven't even touched on, but she's like the weakest bad-ass Punk kid that there ever was Lane start using a Ouija board to draw the ghost over she's like DZ which is the name of the ghost. I'm playing by myself. You have to join me
Starting point is 00:48:56 Which was not a rule that was ever mentioned but the ghost comes over And starts twisting her arm around till it's almost backwards. It looks like things are bad for the teens until Eyes cloud over her eyes start to cloud over until done on a third hand touches the plant shed It's Debbie's ghost. She's come back to help them and Apparently something that could have happened at any time. Yeah, Debbie was really waiting for the right moment Yeah, after all of her friends got killed and while Debbie's ghost she likes the drama Well, she was it is Debbie all over Yeah, I think Debbie save the drama for your mama who you screamed into dust
Starting point is 00:49:32 Anyway, so while she's while she's struggling with the ghost her sister just got a casually walks in with the corpse neurons and tosses into a furnace Spring cleaning was like kidding. I'm this. A lot of junk. Spring cleaning. Who was like kidding? I'm never going to look at this corpse again. Tell us the way. Why'd I hold on with this? You know what they say? You put everything in front of you, touch it.
Starting point is 00:49:52 And if it doesn't bring a joy, you get rid of it. I'm gonna say if my dad knows this. This corpse is not bringing me any joy. My dad and I this weekend were going through some of his fathers old papers that he had been keeping. And we went through, and it was like, receipts for shirts and things like that. It was the dumbest stuff in my dad's like I can't believe I'm carrying this around for 40 years. These old checks that he wrote to the power company in 1972. But
Starting point is 00:50:14 we went through those with more excitement than this woman went this one then this girl had with more reverence. Yeah. The corpse into a furnace to stop a ghost attack. They throw the Ouija board in, and the girl ghost is like, ah, I do not care for this yet. And disappears. Once again, dissolves into dust, leaves nothing but a shadow in the wall, and everything is okay.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Where is it? Or is it? What? Because she gets home. Lane does, right? Yes. And there's like a Ouija board there. Not just a plan chef.
Starting point is 00:50:49 Oh, just a plan chef. Hang it out. And she holds it up to her eye. And before we can see if her eye clouds over and she sees any ghosts, cut to the crepe. Smash cut. We don't want you ghost out. Why don't you get up?
Starting point is 00:51:01 Ouija dad. Don't touch that board, daaah! Wee-jie-daaah! Wee-jie-ma-ha! Ha-ha! So good! You might as well wee-jie. Wee-jie! Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:13 Go ahead and wee-jie! Welcome to the wee-jie! Wee-jie-ma-ha! Wee-jie-ma-ha! Life in the fast wee-jie! Yep. Runnin' on wee-jie! That's funny because
Starting point is 00:51:22 there's a character named Lane in the movie and you swapped that Lane for Ouija. A good point. Anyway, so everybody reflect on that for a minute. The movie leaves us on a very weak cliffhanger as we go and we wait for Ouija too, because this movie was a huge hit. It also went through some substantial rewrites, right? Re-shoots.
Starting point is 00:51:41 Re-shoots, wow. According to Wikipedia, they reshot like half the movie. Oh man. Must have left all that gold on the cutting room floor. Yeah. I'm dying for the unedited version released. Apparently none of the people- Where is that more? Where they morphed the two versions of the movie together.
Starting point is 00:51:58 They should have a second part- They should have it like- Like an anchor man? Yeah, that's what I'm gonna say, the anchor man. They should be an anchor man movie. They put out with all'm gonna say, the anchor man, the shitty anchor man movie, they put out with all the extra footage. Wow. I mean, it was the title of the shitty anchor man movie.
Starting point is 00:52:10 It was not meant to be seen by anyone. That's why they cuddle that stuff. I'm hoping none of the anchor men are listening. Well, I hope they are, so they can recommend this great podcast to their friends. I'm sorry, Paul Rudd. So you're a Nashville pleasure. The other members of Anchorman's cast, not sorry.
Starting point is 00:52:29 You hear that Christina Applegate? David Checkner. David Checkner, and that animated, what, bear or whatever that they write at that one point, what's what is it? When you plant flute. Yep, you're telling me. The animated bear from a different movie. He had to start somewhere, okay. He was an extra an acre man
Starting point is 00:52:47 First in all these movies where there's just like a scene Starry roll. There's a CGI teddy bear in the background because Ted had to work his way up through the ranks It's almost like Seth McFarlane gag Had a recurring part on on step by step It does nobody make the connection. I think that quite possibly Ted could be Teddy Rucksman. Teddy Rucksman was the child star, and he turned into Ted. Okay, wait, have you seen the movie Ted?
Starting point is 00:53:15 No. You're just making up what could have happened in that movie. Yeah, so, Dan, what's our final judgments on this? Was this movie totally terrifying, totally snorifying, or frighteningly funny? Stuart, let's make it all these quick. Man, this shit was super-scarifying. So many jump scares, and there was a ring twisterunny thumbs up.
Starting point is 00:53:37 Or down, I don't know what scare-fying means. LAUGHTER Hally? Oh, sorry. I thought this movie sucked. LAUGHTER I have this movie sucked. I Appreciate it other movies. I definitely Think that awkward moment. I hate all movies. I've appreciated other movies No, but it was like nobody had any like, you know, like at least develop the characters
Starting point is 00:54:00 I mean it what makes Lane Tick? I don't know besides ghosts I mean, what makes Lane Tick? I don't know besides ghosts. We didn't even mention the fact that she finds a flash drive inside that penguin key chain and there's just a video of it in on it of her friend finding the Ouija board and then using it for the first time. Like this is a lazy movie. Yeah, it's snorfying. That's a lot of stuff.
Starting point is 00:54:20 I'd say snorfying. It's a very, it's like a lazy blanjeneric movie. Yeah. We're Dave and Graham and we host Stop Podcasting Yourself. We started this podcast back in 2008 before podcasts had to have any kind of concept, so we don't really know how to describe it. It's kind of like going to the barber. If your barber knew all about the first season of the show else, it's like a 90 minute massage
Starting point is 00:54:50 where the masseuse is two people talking to each other with a third person. It's like the monsters of metal tour, only quieter, no music, and just talking. It's like a make-out session, but without the lips touching, they just talk a lot. Download Stop Podcasting Yourself from iTunes or MaximumFun.org. What's the next thing we do?

You should look up Ingmar Bergman I bet it's just a huge parotit. I guarantee you it is not. I think I think you're thinking of something like a bill poem and bill packs in situation.
Starting point is 01:00:26 No. Where bill packs is really into chicks with big nodded. You guys are gonna be so shamed. It is true that we will not be. Okay. Even for wrong, we won't be shamed. I mean, you should be, because like, you are embarrassing yourself.

I saw Dan actually do a pull-up today and I was impressed. Yeah. He was like, oh yeah, you're a man. Yeah, it often gets forgotten by many people. That, oh yeah, you're a man. Yeah, it's so. That's great. We love we love you. A shambling mound. Yeah, we love getting gifts. Thank you so much for this. Yeah, and Thank you for giving every single one of us a gift. Everybody in the room. I've actually received a couple of movies that Hallie Dieter else we'd give her again. I received a couple of movies as gifts that I have an chance to watch it so I feel bad. I'm still alive. She somehow her mouth got sewn up or no that's what I wish
Starting point is 01:01:32 to happen. So she'd be quiet. You said that like you were upset and also little intrigues. I never. So, uh, this, uh, this first letter is from Jeff Lasting with Held, who writes, while eating breakfast alone this morning, but not for any sad reasons, I happen to overhear some people the table next to mine talking about movies. Telling about ordering the pancake with the works. After a lady recommended that her companions see the excellent new Pixar film Inside Out, a gentleman at the table, Sim might have missed it as a kids movie, and instead recommended that his friends check out
Starting point is 01:02:12 the hilarious movie for adults he just seen. Last Vegas, he loved all the zany antics that quote, Mike Douglas and company got up to. Mike Douglas. But he especially liked the part where the main characters deny 50 cent entry to their party, which seemed to have filled them with love and joy that only makes sense if you had a personal grudge you can get 50 cent. You might be the guy who shot 50 cent. Race. Anyway, it got me
Starting point is 01:02:33 thinking. Have you then completed his breakfast of I'm guessing diarrhea and other stupid shit? Don't you don't want to eat that food? Have some food. Have any of you ever encountered someone who really loves a really terrible movie? I don't mean the thing where a certain flopper asterisk keeps what recommending a movie that isn't very good over and over again, double asterisk. But more a 10,000 BC or uglove level. Well, that talks heads movie the Danes I was talking about. A movie so bad you can't fathom someone I actually enjoying it.
Starting point is 01:03:03 What are you doing that situation? Are you CK in the USA Jeff lasting with hell? Oh twist ending Astrosk Elliott the devil and Daniel Webster. Whoa. Whoa. That's a great movie. I Only recommended it like twice I think Sorry, I'm distracted by the adorableness that is Halley's trying to open up the air. It's like a mouse in a Disney cartoon trying to open up a human-sized bottle. It's like a squirrel trying to break an acorn open. It's like one of those, the, it's like when a Mary Melody's cartoon that just
Starting point is 01:03:40 he plays in a world where like objects come to life at night. So I've encountered this situation. I'm an object. This happened to me kind of recently. I had a I had a bar back who worked for me who could not stop talking about his favorite movie. A movie called Boondocks Saints. And every time he started talking about Boondock Saints, I'm like, this is gonna affect your tip out, buddy. And then he would try and find internet proof
Starting point is 01:04:11 that Boondock Saints rules he was never able to. That movie's drool. Yep. So the way I dealt with it is by making some of them. He called them one of the talking, one of the talking. He called them one of the talking, one of the talking. Yeah. Yeah. Turn around Hooch. There's a lot of drooling that. I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,
Starting point is 01:04:25 I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,
Starting point is 01:04:33 I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like,
Starting point is 01:04:42 I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm like, I'm all you can do is say, hey buddy, I didn't like that movie, but you like it, that's okay. We don't all have to say anything. Wow, living life from McKiller, Kaelin. What I've realized is that I am a strange man with a lot of strange opinions about things. And if I'm gonna ask people not to judge me by them,
Starting point is 01:04:59 I can't judge other people by them, or I can judge them silently. In my head, I can be like, if this person ever recommends a movie to me, I'm not gonna watch it. The way that my mom will be like, here's a movie I like, and she people by the way. Or I can judge them silently. In my head I can be like, if this person ever recommends a movie to me, I'm not gonna watch it. The way that like my mom will be like, here's a movie I like and she'll recommend a movie. I won't like it's a movie that she likes.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Yeah. That that's, you know what? I just say, oh, I'll see that sometime and then I don't. I wanna introduce you to a little maneuver called the Smiling Nod. Ha ha ha ha. The old SAM. I can't believe you've been doing that to me the whole time, Dan.
Starting point is 01:05:28 Oops. That's out of the bag. Turns out Dan doesn't even like porn. He was just smiling and nodding whenever Stuart mentioned it. You got to see this thing. It's amazing. There's a Megan Lady in it. And she totally does it.
Starting point is 01:05:39 Sure. Sure. Make sure you're paying for this real big, whatever. You sound like you're delivering the moral to a bully in a sitcom? Yeah, better made your penis real big. Now you don't have any friends. Was it worth it? It feels good, doesn't it?
Starting point is 01:05:57 Having a temporarily bigger penis. Maybe you should learn for your heart to ejaculate. You forgot it's more important to have a boner in your courage. So how do you deal with people when they don't like movies that are good? Or when they like movies that are bad. I usually think that I'm wrong. That's another
Starting point is 01:06:25 bound way of going bad. Um, lean in, howie. Sadly, the ladies know what I'm talking about. Um, so this next letter goes like this, dear radio is orc, I vote to stare at the door intently while studying its material composition and assessing the quality of its craftsmanship. Greg last name with hell. That's pretty good response. Why is it always a whole new last names?
Starting point is 01:06:52 Why are they afraid of? That criminal prosecution. It's against a lot of right letters to us. Oh. So, Ellie, what happens with that response? So he looked at the door. You see that the door is made of wood or possibly metal. Do you A, continue to look at the door.
Starting point is 01:07:13 B, look harder at the door. C, reach out and touch the door. Or E, I skipped D. Oh wow. E, look for D. Oh wow. E look for D. Send in your choice to Radio Zork, Care of Murphy Brown, FYI Productions, New York, New York, 100449678235 Jenny. Sponsored by Sweet Delicious Penis,
Starting point is 01:07:39 the Povercoil. Oh that's right, I forgot Radio Zork was sponsored by Sweet Delicious Penis. That's right, I forgot Raydo's work was sponsored by Sweet Delicious Venusus. Halle just gave a, a confused, but not, I'm not angry, but confused. Look, I was trying to imagine a sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet. That's not exist. Well, they're available as long as, uh, wait, if you, if you prefer one with caramel, but it's going to be held to clean off,
Starting point is 01:08:03 oh boy. It's going to be sticking to the drawers The bottom drawer the top drawer Yeah, you gotta change it up every night or else the fucking munchkin Look take it off to their fucking little and then the cowboys are going to trouble their penis sheep. He's a poor yeah. Well that's not a bad thing.
Starting point is 01:08:31 You want a penis sheep. I feel like that's a comedy essay that your server was never written about. An old cobbler who couldn't, his store was about to go out of business and he couldn't didn't know what to do to you. And then one day he woke up in the night and then elf was just like jerking him all over.
Starting point is 01:08:45 That's like this is like a name of the store I appreciate it but it's not like I better write that story and send it into Pat House comics when they still published those. I'm not complaining but I think still gonna put naked ladies in Pat House. I have to assume they're gonna up the naked lady post. What about whatboy. Yeah, naked down what? What about play girls? That's still gonna be wall to wall penises. It seems so.
Starting point is 01:09:09 I mean, I don't know all of their business decisions. I assume so. I don't know. I'm never. I don't know. But she just only did a damn impression. If they took all the naked ladies at a playboy and they just put him in play girl,
Starting point is 01:09:23 then the British playgirl were like, what the hell is this? Look, we had to put them somewhere. It's not like you can't take photos of these. We just shovel them into this other thing. We just shovel them into a locomotive. So this goes like this. How about a callback to last year's song of the autumn, Rocket Cracket Island and the World of Tomorrow.
Starting point is 01:09:46 Great song. I put an MP3 of it on a mix I made from my family's road trip through Eastern Canada this year. Weird. And it became a favorite of my two little kids, age seven and four. That's nice. The best part was hearing them sing Stuart's line. I think I've seen this movie in my dreams.
Starting point is 01:10:04 And because my son's idea of good humor is to to negate everything, he like to sing, start singing the song correctly. Rocket Crocodile in the world of tomorrow, but then he would sing, it's a movie that exists before coming to a dead stop. Yours are rest of what first name withheld, S rest of last name withheld. are rest of what person named withheld as rest of last name withheld. Why are your fans ashamed to be your fans that they don't want to be? You've heard this podcast were a bunch of loony tunes and knuckleheads. I like that young the young man plays with expectations in his company. It reminds me of my own sons, new experiments that go with the idea.
Starting point is 01:10:45 He wrote a knock knock joke that I think you guys are gonna like. Let's go through it. Knock knock. Who's the answer? Mommy. Mommy who? Daddy.
Starting point is 01:10:53 This is an actual joke that Sammy told me. It follows on the heels of his earlier joke about his grandparents. It goes like this. Knock knock. Who's the answer? Bubbie. Bubbie who? Zady. I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name?
Starting point is 01:11:05 I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name?
Starting point is 01:11:13 I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name?
Starting point is 01:11:21 I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? I was like, who's the name? more than ever. K-Lin Jenner. K-Lin Jenner. K-Lin Jenner. K-Lin Jenner. I can say it all honesty that I laughed at that as hard as any joke that you've ever told. I guess Sam, you'll take the credit for that. Funny kid. That's good stuff.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Yeah, I like how kids think it's funny just to say the opposite of a thing. Yeah. That's how they learn. I guess. Yeah. Um, so. Very wistful. Do everything turn, turn, turn. Is that that moment I realized? Down, down, down.
Starting point is 01:11:54 I should have never disowned my seven children there. Nothing. Seven children? Yeah, Fred's having children. Yeah, we're talking about it. All right, let's get back to the letters. What a child actor, Fred Savage Children. Yeah, we're talking about it. Alright, let's get back to the letters. What a child actor that Fred Savage. And adult actor.
Starting point is 01:12:10 You know what? Does anyone watch that show? I heard it was by the end of- The Grindr? But on a podcast, I heard it was by the time it's seen. Grindr, I watch it. It's funny enough. You use Grindr?
Starting point is 01:12:19 That's right. Look, if you know of a better way for me to have my illicit homosexual assing Nathan. Or be it for me to bust you in your methods, they seem to be working great. This is from Sarah last name with though. See Carl, no, sorry, Carl, the guy that Dam is leaving. Carl Jr's the hamburger fortune owner. Oh, who dammit, see me with?
Starting point is 01:12:41 I just can't. His last name is Richard Carl Jr. His full name, that's Richard Carl Judon. Damn. Sarah last name with held rights. Dear Elliot. Hey. Because of your nerdy charm and nasal width,
Starting point is 01:12:54 I fall in love with guys like you. I recently met a guy exactly like you, even down to the catchphrase repeating shouts and creative writing club in my college My question is Am I attracted to him because of him or do I only like him because he reminds me of you and thus the plot house Should I show him his podcast stopper ganger sincerely Sarah last name felt I would say why question what the motivation of love is instead If he's anything like me, he's not used to having girls go after him so go after him give him a thrill maybe maybe you'll find out you
Starting point is 01:13:29 really like him for him and not just because he's a pale simulacrum of your heartthrob me but maybe don't play this for him this episode in particular like maybe play a different episode form if you really want to but he may be like yeah when you introduce me and then he'll become obsessed with tracking down his other half and then he'll try to take over my life like the dark half. Exactly. Or like single white female. Still at own your eyes.
Starting point is 01:13:56 So he gets your power and then you can be devilily jokes on him. The power is not in my heart. Now so when you start, when you start selling getting into this podcast, you probably don't hear this episode. So you just when it comes on be like, Oh, there's something wrong with this episode techno. They'll difficult. Yeah, or just like start kissing him and he'll, he's It could be done, nots. Has she gone from? I mean, there's no, why are you
Starting point is 01:14:27 examining the letter for additional information? Yeah, I want to know. I printed out this from an email. There's no, like, computer in-hands. That's the only way that happens next. Because I was wondering, is it like, she has a crush on him and she has an expressed her feelings to him, or she's like dating him,
Starting point is 01:14:43 and she has an expressed that she's into him because he reminds her of you. Isn't that the test? Isn't that the test to great literature that it makes us ask questions? You know, yes. It's not clear whether they're together. Yes, Sarah.
Starting point is 01:14:55 Is the next letter from the same person that has a continuation of the storylines? It is. I totally bone down with Elliot. Bone down. Okay, with the pale shadow of Elliot, Elliot. Elliot. It reminds me of when I used to write a newspaper column in New York. Folio.
Starting point is 01:15:12 And a woman, fakely it, Elliot, fake Ellen. And this woman wrote on her blog about how she had a crush on me. And I was just the girl that was into bondage and stuff. And she was super into bondage and she had like corset piercings on her back, which are two rows of piercings that you can string ribbon between the two so it looks like her body is a corset. That sounds perfect for you. And there are all these pictures where she's holding big guns and it was like, man,
Starting point is 01:15:37 if I was a different person, I would be tracking this woman down and I'd have a ton of crazy stories to tell if I lived, to tell them them. But instead I didn't do that. Instead you got nervous and hid somewhere. For years. Yeah. So Daniel coached you out of your little mouse hole. Yeah. With a with a piece of cheese. He's a Lincoln biographer. It's a piece of it. Yeah, right, right, it's back there and let us know what happened with this burgeoning romance. But last, and thanks for writing it. Last letter.
Starting point is 01:16:09 Hey there, peaches, listening to your recent episode about Deliverus from Evil, and I was thinking about people playing Satan in films, like one of my favorites, Peter Stormair, in the hit 2005 hit Constantine time. I don't know that that's a hit. A TV show. All of it. I was wondering what your favorite, wondering what your favorite devil in cinema, John Last name with hell, favorite devil in cinema.
Starting point is 01:16:31 I mean, for me, it's Walter Houston in the devil and Daniel Webster. I feel like he straddles the line between a funny devil and a scary devil really well. Yeah. And he is just so kind of like quiet for a lot of it in a very intense way. And I like that a lot.
Starting point is 01:16:45 But then he has creepy laughs. Does a night on a bald mountain from Pantasia Count to see the devil? I mean, technically he's just a demon, I think. Was his name Malibol or something like that? I don't know. But yeah, sure, go ahead. He's super devilish, Gary.
Starting point is 01:16:59 He's huge. He's as big as a mountain. I mean, he's the coolest. Look at one, I feel like. That's for sure. Ali, you have favorite devil. When you said the devil and Daniel Webster, I just thought of the devil and Daniel Johnston I mean, it's the coolest look at one I feel like that's for sure Ali The devil and Daniel Webster. I just thought of the devil and Daniel Johnston and now such a good movie so
Starting point is 01:17:12 That's all I was not actually in that way what I to document Yeah, it was so good. Yeah, so I'm just gonna say What about what about she devil? What the hell is she doing? Oh, I actually, I actually saw she devil like three times in theater. I was pretty into she devil. And beagle junior. And beagle the dog version of it.
Starting point is 01:17:38 He's super big. On Capitol critters. So I probably say there's going to be a bit of a spoiler alert everybody, but I would probably say Robert Niro in, wait a minute, what's that movie with? Angel. Where he plays Lewis cipher. Oh, I was thinking that was a loose suffer.
Starting point is 01:18:03 Get it. Devils advocate. Yeah. I was thinking that that's like Lucifer get it. Devils advocate. Yeah, without the team. I was thinking of David. Sorry. Although Tim Curry and legend is really good to him. Korean legend really good. That's probably about the only thing I like about legend. Yeah. Al Pacino in in devil's advocate is a good like over the top goofy devil. Wait a minute. He's over the top in a movie. He goes over the top. He turns his head around backwards. He wins an arm wrestling competition. But there's in a movie. He goes over the top. He turns his head around backwards.
Starting point is 01:18:25 And he wins an arm wrestling competition. But there's a lot of good devils in the film. Vigo Mortensen in the prophecy. Um, uh, in interview with a vampire. There's a devil in that. Well, the theme song was like, there's me too. Where are you going?
Starting point is 01:18:43 You're simply leaving the devil, yeah. That was a story called it in the earlier, in the last episode, please, play me too. You simply leave it in the devil, yeah. That was a story called it in the last episode. Pleased to meet you. There's a devil in the blue dress. There's no devil in it. That's a pretty good movie. Yeah, there's whoever plays the devil in a haxon also known as witchcraft through the ages,
Starting point is 01:18:56 which is a silent movie that's really good. There's good devil worshipers, you know? Sure. And Rosemary's Baby. Tom Noon in the house of the devil. Yeah, you know, sure and Rosemary's baby Tom noon in a house of the devil Yeah, that's really good or in the devil rides out with Christopher Lee Christopher Lee is not the villain But does he play the devil? No, he just he's actually the hero in movie. I mean that great film god I don't even know what the hell is laughing. I don't know where she's going with it. You can't get it out. Well, great question. We all answered. Anyway, so
Starting point is 01:19:32 should we go on to recommendations? That green film, God in the devil. I don't know what you're doing. Yeah, is that a movie? I guess I'm so baffled by how I'm supposed to react to that. I don't know what it is. Maybe a nod and smile already. Like, that's one of those times where like, it's not a movie. It's just like, what if someone had made that movie? What if somebody made a movie called God in the Devil and somebody had to play the devil? I think is what she's saying. That character would be amazing. That'd be your favorite. So this is the part of the thing about.
Starting point is 01:20:15 This is something to think about. Sisters. This is the part of the show where we recommend our way over time. We recommend, I mean, compared to where we're at. Quickly as possible. We recommend movies that we actually liked. And instead of the thing that we watched, I will go first, because I'm already talking. Forrest October, this is an interesting movie.
Starting point is 01:20:40 It's not entirely a horror movie, but it definitely becomes very horrifying by the end. And it's a film called Seconds by John Lentz, Freikenheimer. It has a Lincoln Steiner. Freikenheimer's Monster. It has a lot of the same sort of style that he brought to the Venturing candidate. It has the same kind of beautiful black and white photography. It has the same paranoia. It has the same like weird sense of humor beneath everything. The cinematography is even a little more intense. Yeah. Like I feel like there's a lot of teri-duelium style that comes directly from seconds. And it's about a service that can provide wealthy middle-aged men with basically a second chance at life it it takes their death and then
Starting point is 01:21:28 sets them up uh... with uh... plastic surgery that makes the takes at least twenty years off of them and kind of gives them a new life and it's kind of in a way it gives them a second time around step by step day by day i don't know the rest of how that theme song goes. Petrito, Fee, and Suzanne Summers.
Starting point is 01:21:51 This is not helping anything. Seconds, John Ray Remember. And it's shot by James Wong-Howell. Yeah, and dramatically it covers some of the same ground as Mad Men, that kind of like finding out that like just like just starting over in a new life is not enough to make you happy if the problem is within yourself rather than in your external circumstances, but instead of it being sort of a humorous drama, it's a dramatic paranoid thriller horror film.
Starting point is 01:22:22 So with Rocky Hudson. Yeah. So that's what I recommend seconds. Anyone else? Why not go back for seconds? Says Dan McClellan from the Floppyos. I'm going to recommend a movie called Creep. I was going to recommend Creep. This is the second time I've recommended a movie called Creep. This time is the... a man in a movie called Creep. This time is the... Is that that way?
Starting point is 01:22:45 That's how they say it. Creep? This one is not the movie about the monster living in the subway. Instead, it stars one of them, Dooplass boys. I totally scooved you. I totally scooved you. You probably got a million old time,
Starting point is 01:22:58 you bullshit, it's a dream. I did another movie I was gonna recommend in a day. That's convenient. So I'm gonna recommend the movie Creep. It's a shorty. It's only like a 15 minutes. It's got one of them duplass boys in it. There's only two people in it.
Starting point is 01:23:11 Yeah, there's only two people in it. There's only two people on screen and you hear one of them for a phone. Yeah, like a true west or something. Yep. Yeah, kind of. And it's about a videographer who takes a answer is a personal ad to film a guy for one day for a thousand dollars and it immediately gets creepy he goes out of this cabin out
Starting point is 01:23:33 in the woods and he interacts with his subject who is played by Mark Duplass who is the best special effect in all of horror movies, as he is a super creepy, who explains that he wants this videographer to film him for the day because he is dying in brain cancer and he wants his unborn son to get to know his father. He actually, I love, he goes, you see that movie in my life? Yeah. He's a great movie. Anyway, so he and I love that I was like, I've heard anyone mentioned my life.
Starting point is 01:24:05 And then it goes on from there and ends up being like quiet at times and also scary and great. It like, it functions really well. I thought it's like a kind of a short story of a horror movie. Yes. And where it's like, it's sometimes it's funny and sometimes it's creepy and... And I've complained, and it's a found footage movie and I've complained about the format quite a bit but it's it seems to be very aware of the format and actually kind of uses the idea of like strange DVDs arriving and it's very kind of conscious of it as opposed to like oh scary stuff has happened and some do's just filming it. There are a few scenes where I was like why do you have
Starting point is 01:24:43 the camera? I mean that that's, show me a, yeah, show me a found footage movie that doesn't do that. But it played, there's definitely, there's a part that played with my expectations a lot that I respected where you see something, there's a cut and you see something happening and you're like, why would he shoot this? And then you realize it was shot to make a point
Starting point is 01:24:59 to the other character and I'm like, oh, you got me movie. I thought you'd made a mistake, but really, you'd outsmarted me. And so I was really gonna recommend Creeb to movie. Yeah, I thought you'd made a mistake, but really you doubt smart in me. Mm-hmm. And so I was really going to recommend Creep to him. I'd like to like to stir it. But, uh, do you want, I'll go next.
Starting point is 01:25:12 You go next. You can finish. Well, it just means that I'm going to recommend a movie that's not a shocked over movie. You go, Halley. Uh, so I don't know maybe this has been recommended before, but have you guys talked about my best fiend? Oh, I'm scared. I'm over here. you guys talked about my best fiend? Oh, I'm scared. I'm over here.
Starting point is 01:25:26 I've talked about the documentary about the last few years. The Klaus Kinski, Brana Herzog movie. Yeah, so I saw like a month ago or something and it is so fucking funny. I mean, like beside the fact that like it's super interesting because you learn about Klaus Ky and you learn about all these movies that they made together that are super famous.
Starting point is 01:25:51 But you also sort of, it's about how nuts Kinsy is, but you really get a window into how nuts Berner Hussag also is. And it's just like so absurd. Like they're when they're talking about what is the ag year and- Like you're right the wrath of God. Yeah, when they're talking about filming that and like burner her saga style, telling the story about how he's like, was staying in this place and he was like, yeah,
Starting point is 01:26:22 and I, you know, we were staying in this smaller village and I was, you know, everyone else was staying intense and I was staying in a home with this woman with nine children who was raising 200 guinea pigs and I was very uncomfortable because you would wake up in the night and you would just have like hundreds of guinea pigs just like swarming over you. And so I realized I needed to find a different living situation. But like, but said in like total like, like, like, no, yes, like humorless description. And their relationship is super interesting.
Starting point is 01:27:02 And like, it is so funny without a meeting to be funny that I don't know, it was a joy to watch. And with darkness I can see the guinea pigs looking at me. We're looking to the eye of a guinea pig and you see not even the pig. Reminding one of the womb in some way. I don't know how that makes sense. So much. So, but.
Starting point is 01:27:26 No, it's definitely, there's like, he's talking about how like, class conceit sees nature. So like, it's so reverent of nature. And he's like, when I see nature, I see blood. I see rape. I see violence.
Starting point is 01:27:40 They publish, they publish hurt songs diary. They was keeping during the filming of that movie or it did that or that film that fits Carl Dowe and it is all that stuff. It's hilarious. He's like the jungle is a place of savagery and slaughter. The man has taken a dip but has he ever really tamed anything? Like he just hates, he thinks life is so scary. And then he makes a movie like that Loch Ness movie where he's a total joke on
Starting point is 01:28:06 his own personality. So I thought I was going to recommend Creep for Shaktover and I was like this is a found footage movie. No way is Stuart going to see this. He totally scooped me. So I'm going to recommend a non-Shaktover movie that I liked. It's called Ginza Cosmetics. It's a Japanese movie from the early 50s. I'm sure you're right. I'm not sure about that. It's, and it's directed by it. I'm going to pronounce it wrong. I'm sure. Mikyo Narusei, who is, who is known more for like women's films or movies about women.
Starting point is 01:28:35 And I feel like it's a kind of movie that there are many of throughout Japan's history, but which film fans in America don't always see. I feel like we watch a lot of samurai movies. We watch a lot of like violent, we watch a lot of violent, you know, cop movies or whatever, or watch a lot of like Japanese thrillers or things like that or ghost movies, but there's this huge genre that for whatever reason
Starting point is 01:28:58 doesn't seem to come, I don't see as much of. And I- Women's films. Women's films. But like, the movies about the way people actually live in Japan or lived when the movies were being made, rather than like period pictures or monster movies or things like that.
Starting point is 01:29:13 And it's a very kind of delicate movie. It's the emotions are kind of reticent in it to a degree that is, I found more powerful because the characters do not want to show how what a tough time they're having in life. to a degree that is, I found more powerful because the characters do not want to show how what a tough time they're having in life. It's a melodrama about a single mother who is a gaysha at a bar in the Ginsa district and briefly sees that there might be an opportunity for her to leave this life and have like
Starting point is 01:29:38 a better life for her and her son and it just doesn't work out. But it's all done very, like the character's very tentative and everything's very delicate. And I found the score in it very affecting. Because it was like, the music was kind of sad but not super sad. It was a movie that- Has it played on a chamoison?
Starting point is 01:29:54 I don't know what that is. Some of those javines guitars. Like a chamoison you would use to wipe a car? Yep. Yep, like a chamoison. I'm offensive. But I really liked it a lot. It's a movie that kind of forces you to kind of supply
Starting point is 01:30:11 some of the- Think about women's films. What? Think about women's films. Never mind. It forces you to think about women's films, yeah. Anyway, Ginseng cosmetics, I liked it. Um, yeah.
Starting point is 01:30:23 So, yeah. The saddest time of the year, another shot to come and go on. It's the longest it'll be until another shot to. But you know what? When is this episode really? Cage versus just around the corner. Halloween. It is coming out Halloween.
Starting point is 01:30:37 All Halloween. On Halloween. On all Halleys Eve. That's when my mom caused me Halloween. She caused me Halloween. That's what my mom calls me Halley Wien. She calls me Halley Wien. That's a Halley Wien. Peek behind the curtain. Because you're in the van Dween for a while.
Starting point is 01:30:51 Yes. Dean Wien, the other Wien, and Halley Wien. Halley Wien, yeah. Um, okay. Have a great Halley Wien people. Okay. Simon, Simon, Simon, this is Kali Hagling from the plot at the end of the high-jump. I had a whole speech about the chilly day with the spirits' room, but I guess I'm not

I've been there, McCoy. I've been steward Wellington. And as the veil between our world and the spirit world, once again thickens, I will be
