Starting point is 00:00:00 This is Emily, Henley, and Sammy, and you're listening to Too Scary, Didn't Watch. Hi, everyone. Welcome to Too Scary, Didn't Watch, the horror movie recap podcast for those too scared to watch for themselves. I'm Emily, and I am too scared to watch scary movies. I'm Henley, and I'm also usually too scared to watch for themselves. I'm Emily and I am too scared to watch scary movies. I'm Henley and I'm also usually too scared to watch scary movies. I'm Sammy and I like watching scary movies and I usually watch them so that you don't have to, but I've just been dropping the ball lately. No. These two have been picking up the slack. Yeah, she's such a slacker. This Samantha Smart always slacking on her duties. No, she is hard at work on yet another docuseries that we are so freaking excited to see when it comes out.
Starting point is 00:00:57 We're proud as hell. Yeah, we're proud as hell. It's exciting, but it's a lot of work and it's all I've been doing. So it's what I wanted to talk about in our what's up check-in. Well, guess what, Sammy? It's time. What's up? I just have been working so much and I feel like a lot of like network or like once you get to a certain tier of editor and I guess I'm there.
Starting point is 00:01:23 I think you are. hell yeah um no I mean just my last job and this job have been like for big companies but I feel like in general these kinds of jobs are just such a grind and I have only been able to watch one episode of television per night. And for me, who usually watches three or four, this has been a huge change. And another huge change is that I have had one alcoholic beverage in 10 days because I'm just too tired to drink. I like once I'm done with work, I'm like eating and and watching my one episode of television and going straight to bed. What TV what TV show have you been watching? What is getting so lucky? You know, they haven't been fun ones. I'll tell you that it's been Mare of Mare of Easttown. Oh, yeah, The Handmaid's Tale. Oh, my God. Oh, really? Unwind. And after after a long day of work with
Starting point is 00:02:23 The Handmaid's Tale. Let me tell you guys, The Handmaid's Tale has not become a more feel-good show. What the hell? I had to stop. I couldn't do it. Yeah, I love the book. I really liked the first season, even though it was also really hard to watch. I love
Starting point is 00:02:40 Elizabeth Moss. I think she's so incredible. And I watched the first episode of season two and was like, and I will not be continuing i almost like admire their commitment to making like the most unpleasant content like just like it's just every episode is so sad and like almost an equivalent of torture porn i feel like that's like we should have that like it's like what is the purpose of this is what i ask myself sometimes while i'm watching it it's like is it just to make me feel bad and to make yeah uh women look powerless at the hands of men i mean it's that's a true thing but
Starting point is 00:03:21 it's like do we need four seasons of that do we need it over and over and over i really think that there is an argument for no we do not need that huge argument for no yeah i think that there's a point to be made of no and there there's so much gratuitous like content on tv generally um and there's an article in Vulture, I think, this week about how Game of Thrones really capitalized on rape culture. And it's something that has permeated a lot of what we consume.
Starting point is 00:03:56 And how it's like, should we just keep doing this? Or maybe we should stop? Right. I mean, yeah, that's a whole... This topic I've thought about a lot and it hurts my brain because so much of it is embedded in like our like the way we grew up and like the way we view things and the way things were taught like from the second you start ingesting media like there's just all these subliminal messages and so and actually it kind of applies to horror of like this this
Starting point is 00:04:26 towing this line of having like a final girl be empowered and it's like what's empowering and what's just like watching a woman get tortured the worst things yeah oh god yeah that does hurt to think about it really because there's no clear line necessarily yeah and there's no no matter how analytically you try to approach it there's no way to extract your lived history it's like how do you where do you like my thoughts can't ever be fully objective how can i yeah feminism and horror is a very interesting topic because. Yeah, I have lots of I have lots of feelings about that, that I am not smart enough to articulate into a sentence right now. But I do feel like I do feel like we are such casual consumers of it, though. The fact that, like, there's law and order SVU and that's something that I would put on in the background while I fold laundry.
Starting point is 00:05:22 And it's literally just show after show of woman getting brutally raped in different ways. And I'm like, yeah, yeah, that's a good background calming show while I do my laundry. Like, what is that? That's fucked up. That's that's not that doesn't does not have to be normal. It's not good. This is also why I this is like such a big topic that I feel like we've talked about for so long. So I'm sorry that I just keep saying more things. But it's why I hated the new Blade Runner so much, too, is because there in a world where we continue treating women badly. And I'm like, well, if you're just showing that by showing women being treated badly, isn't that continuing the world of that? It made me really mad. Same with Handmaid's Tale. Right, right.
Starting point is 00:06:20 Yeah, I read the book in high school and then I watched the first season. But I feel like the book ends on this note of like maybe and then maybe she makes it out and I remember thinking in the show being like oh my god they're gonna do a second season like it's not just one season what's gonna happen and there's like and but she doesn't and and nope it's it gets worse let's let me tell you Emily that happens that happens four times total she gets out she gets out I can't do it she gets out I can't do it. She gets back in. She gets out. I can't do it. No, there's no part of me that wants to watch that.
Starting point is 00:06:50 I can't do it. I can't do it. There's no part of me. No, thank you. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Emily, what about you?
Starting point is 00:06:59 How was your week? Well, today I did the craziest thing I've done in 16 months and that is I had therapy in person whoa did it feel so good it felt so good I'm like riding
Starting point is 00:07:18 high from it wow so I mean I am fully vaccinated. We haven't really talked about that much on the podcast because, you know, it's like it's complicated not getting vaccinated. That's not complicated. Everyone should do it. I don't want anybody. No, everyone should get vaccinated. Sorry. This is my podcast. I can say that you can. You should. I very much believe in the vaccines. I just mean like people's timings and whatever anyway but um so my therapist had sent out an email saying if you like when
Starting point is 00:07:45 you're two weeks past your your second dose um or johnson johnson just the one and you sign this waiver if you would like you can come to therapy in person and and we we can sit in my office and i'm vaccinated and we can not wear masks and we can do we can do therapy and I said send me the fuck up and let me tell you what after 16 months of zoom therapy man it was so good to be back on
Starting point is 00:08:18 that couch back in that room looking in her actual eyes I mean wow it was like the coolest thing that's ever happened. Oh, no. Now I have no excuse not to go to therapy anymore. I feel like I've been using Zoom therapy. I feel like you still have. I mean...
Starting point is 00:08:33 Yeah. It should be time. Not every therapist is doing it yet, I don't think. And a lot of... I have friends whose therapists have relocated and so there's all sorts of stuff. But let me tell you listeners if you're a therapist offers you the opportunity to go back in person and and it feels safe to do so it's like well what is even what's even talking online that's like what are we even doing wow it was really great it's so great i'm so happy so that's huge that's huge
Starting point is 00:09:08 for me yeah that is huge that is that's that's a good reminder that i should probably find a therapist too i love my therapist so much and i wish i could be her friend but i also know if i were then she couldn't be my therapist so do you know know what I mean? So I'll keep it as it is. Also, as if I have the choice. Never mind. We're friends now. But man, she's great. And she's gotten me through just the darkest days and the brightest days like today.
Starting point is 00:09:38 So really, really, really highly recommend. I've had therapists who I felt like were more my peers and I felt like I wanted to be friends with them. And I almost feel like that wasn't good for me. Oh, it's the best for me. Yeah. I want like an elderly woman. I need a mommy. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:58 That's how I feel too. Or like a grandmother. Yeah, a grandma. A grandma is really ideal. Yeah. like a grandmother a grandma a grandma is really ideal yeah i want a wise and older woman to guide me through life my thing is that i need them to have more life experience than me i feel like if they're my age i don't trust that they know anything more than i know i think maybe that's maybe that's where i'm coming from too i think for, it becomes like I'm trying to get them to be my friend too hard.
Starting point is 00:10:27 You know what I mean? And like, that's not productive for me personally. Yeah, it definitely took me a little. I think this would be me in general. It takes me a little while to be like, all right, I'm going to stop bullshitting, you know, and like, here's what's up. It takes a minute. Got to ease into that.
Starting point is 00:10:43 You got it. You got to ease into that. You gotta ease into that. But I don't trust the elderly. So... Oh, boy. No, I don't know. I don't know what it is about wanting, like, a... I don't know.
Starting point is 00:11:01 I just... I think we can, like, relate. Or, you know, I can be like, you know how this, and she's like, yeah, I think everyone wants something different. Like some people, you know,
Starting point is 00:11:10 I, I've known people who want men specifically to be their therapist. They don't want a woman to be there. I would not. That's just crazy. I don't trust men. I don't trust men. I will not.
Starting point is 00:11:19 I will not tell my problems to a man. Never, ever, ever. I literally can't imagine ever having a male therapist. I can't imagine sitting in a room with one man. I had a male psychiatrist
Starting point is 00:11:31 once. That's it. Just to prescribe me some anti-anxiety medication. Just for those meds. No, no, no, no. Oh my God. And what's up with you? Honestly, truly nothing. I have I have like so aggressively nothing to talk about.
Starting point is 00:11:49 Mayor of Easttown. I watched that. Wow. It's sad. It made me feel sad on the inside. Is it based on a true story? Should I know this? No, it's just really sad.
Starting point is 00:11:57 No, it's just really sad. It's just so well written. It puts you in the world in such a perfect way. And Kate Winslet fucking knocks it out of the park. She's like top notch, best actress in the world. Mayor of East town just solidifies that. Top notch,
Starting point is 00:12:13 best actress in the world. She's incredible. She's incredible. They also do something, which I think is really smart in the first episode where it's a crime, you know, mystery. It takes place in a small town in Philadelphia or outside of, yeah, Philadelphia. And I feel like they always create these shows and the victim, you never actually know who they
Starting point is 00:12:39 are or that you don't really care about them. And it's more about the people on the other side of it. Yeah. and they dedicate the whole first episode to really fleshing out the woman who ultimately is murdered at the end of the first episode. And you become, at least I, became emotionally attached to her pretty quickly.
Starting point is 00:12:57 So it was more devastating when it ends up her being the one who's the victim. And sorry if that was a spoiler, but it does happen in the first episode. So I feel like that's okay. But I'm just so impressed with the writing. I'm so impressed with how he like drops you into the world so easily.
Starting point is 00:13:15 And like the relationships are very real and they talk to each other like they're real people. And like the crosstalk that happens amongst the families is very real. And like, I just am enjoying it so much. It's very good. It's very sad. Evan Peters is very good at playing drunk.
Starting point is 00:13:33 So good with that like Philadelphia accent or whatever. I was really impressed. He was such a good drunk. Wow. There's a lot of drinking that's happening in this series so far. They're drinking a lot of like rolling rocks. Rolling rock is her. I was about to say, Sammy, how are you watching
Starting point is 00:13:52 it then without drinking? But it's because I'm never going to see someone drinking a rolling rock and being like, time for me to have one. Yeah. Not tempting. Not tempting. Yeah, I don't know. I have nothing to say. You did something this week. Not tempting. Yeah, I don't know. I have nothing to say. But I did.
Starting point is 00:14:06 You did something this week. You did. I did watch the movie this week, you guys. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, my God. Can you believe it? I took one for the team, watched a horror movie.
Starting point is 00:14:18 I was really hesitant about it. I was like, I don't know if I can do this. But I watched it during the day. And I picked I Know What You Did Last Summer. And I got to tell you, it is way less scary than when I saw it in third grade. Interesting. Okay. Definitely not as scary. So I was able to handle it.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Great. So should we get into it? I think we should. Okay. So the movie this week is I Know What You Did Last Summer. It came out in 1997. You can stream it on HBO Max currently. It was directed by Jim Gillespie and written by Kevin Williamson.
Starting point is 00:14:56 And it's based off a novel by Lois Duncan. It stars, honestly, all of my favorite people. Jennifer Love Hewitt, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Ryan Felipe, Freddie Prinze Jr. Like the cast can't get better than this. Incredible. It also has Bridget Wilson Sampras, Anne Hesch and Johnny Galecki in it.
Starting point is 00:15:18 Wow. Is that where they met? Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar? Yes. Wow. I know. Isn't that great? Wow. Also, I believe there is an Amazon
Starting point is 00:15:29 show coming based on this. Okay, wait. Also, I didn't, when you said Kevin Williamson, I was like, I'm pretty sure he wrote Scream. And he did. I did not realize that this is the same writer as all
Starting point is 00:15:46 the Scream movies or at least yeah that's part of my that's part of my trivia which is that how the fuck dare you he wrote I know what you did last summer first and sent it out and a bunch of people were like
Starting point is 00:16:04 no we don't want to make this and then he wrote scream and they made that and it was a huge hit and so then they let him make I know what you did last summer right afterwards got it wow yes it is it is coming to prime ooh also I'm gonna apologize in advance cause
Starting point is 00:16:20 I'm 8 months pregnant and the baby inside of me is like crushing my lungs and so I'm gonna sound out of breath like the whole time I'm doing this. You take as many breaths as you need Henley. So I'm like Talking a lot is hard.
Starting point is 00:16:38 It's really hard and I'm not even pregnant. You guys both do it so well and I will try to live up to the example you have set. If you're pregnant like Henley or just really, really tired like me, then this segment might not be for you, but for everybody else, it is cocktail hour. And this week we are drinking the last summer fizz. To make the last summer fizz you will need a half an ounce of gin, three quarters an ounce of lime juice, a half an ounce of green chartreuse,
Starting point is 00:17:13 a quarter ounce of lime cordial, one egg white, seltzer, and mint sprigs. You'll combine the first five ingredients in a cocktail shaker without ice and dry shake then add ice and shake it again. I have some more trivia for us. The budget was $17 million and it grossed 125 million worldwide it remained number one at the u.s box office for three consecutive weeks um the coastal scenes are all shot in sonoma county california but the rest is in north carolina and then yeah sarah michelle geller and freddie prince jr met on this film i mean the best trivia of all that's the best fucking trivia Carolina. And then, yeah, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prince Jr. met on this film. I mean, the best trivia of all. That's the best fucking trivia.
Starting point is 00:18:15 A couple other things. So it's based off this novel that was written by Lois Duncan. She vehemently opposed her book being reworked into a slasher film because her youngest daughter was murdered by an unknown assailant in 1989. Whoa. I know. Oh, my God. After she wrote the book? I don't know when the book was. I think, yeah, I think the book was written in, like, the 70s. So.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Whoa. Yeah. And they were like, yeah, sorry about your kid. We don't care. Like, how does, how do you do, how do you do that? I guess that's your kid no we don't care like how does how do you do how do you do that i guess that's what happened i don't know i don't know but yeah wow um she like yeah she never came around either she was like this is fucked up the whole time no yeah i wouldn't but the thing that's funny kind of funny about it is that her original book is basically the same as the movie.
Starting point is 00:19:05 It's just that no one actually dies in it. So like they're very similar. But nonetheless, you still probably should have respected the wishes of this woman. But yeah, didn't happen. Well, all right. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.
Starting point is 00:19:23 I hope she made some of that 125 million. Yeah, that's the better question. I don't know if she did or not. This film is included on Roger Ebert's most hated list. Great. We've done a few of those. Done some of those. Okay, Sammy, this one's for you because you specifically asked about this.
Starting point is 00:19:46 I'm excited. So Jennifer. Yeah, very excited. So Jennifer Love Hewitt has said one time in an interview that this the most infamous scene from this movie is the part where she like goes out into the middle of the street and screams like, where are you? Come and get us. What are you waiting for? What are you waiting for? Yeah, exactly. And that scene was, in fact, according to Jennifer Love Hewitt, directed by a kid, quote unquote, who won a contest, quote unquote, to be on set that day.
Starting point is 00:20:21 The way Hewitt tells it, this kid just thought it would be interesting to have her character start screaming in the street and the cast and crew decided just to humor him and then they realized that it was amazing um hewitt says she doesn't know whatever happened to this kid and more details about this contest are non-existent on the internet so this is a fun like urban legend about this that we just won't be able to confirm or deny what i would love is if like in watching that one scene just looks like completely different from the movie it's like yeah we let a kid direct it and he made choices
Starting point is 00:20:59 wait it actually does look completely different than the rest of the movie. Really? Really? Yeah, because it's like a, what's it called? Crane shot? Not a drone. It's like a crane shot. But the thing is, they let a kid do a crane shot? That seems crazy to me. That's expensive. How does a kid know what a crane shot is?
Starting point is 00:21:15 The kid comes in and he's like, I gotta get a crane shot. Okay, here are my notes. I've storyboarded it. I need a crane shot. Yeah, so it's like an aerial view of her, you know, in the street, like screaming, like spinning around. And there are really like no other shots like that, really. Listeners, if anyone has any insider info on the filming of this scene, the age.
Starting point is 00:21:38 Please, if you're that kid. The age of me. If you're that kid. Yes, yes, yes. Now an adult. Please let us know. Please let us know. I know. Did you get
Starting point is 00:21:45 some of that $125 million? The reach of this podcast is so large I'm sure we will get tons of answers to this. We're definitely going to get into that person. We're speaking to him. We're going to get him. Right now. And that's it for trivia. Should we watch the trailer? Yeah. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:02 So the boy and girl are making out, right? When they hear over the radio that this lunatic killer's escaped from an insane asylum. That's not the way it goes. The boy goes for help and the girl stays in the car and she hears this, like, scratching sound. No, he's been decapitated. No, he was gutted with a hook. Mary! What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:22:23 What the fuck? Oh my God. I think he's dead. We can't just leave him here. Oh, tell me, little Miss Prelaw, what's the charge for manslaughter? We make a pact. Right here and now we take the Saur grave. For the last year, four friends have kept a secret.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Are you on drugs? No. Well, then what is wrong? I've had a rough year. But not all secrets stay buried. Somebody sent this to me. Oh, my God. Someone knows.
Starting point is 00:22:57 I know what you did last summer. Ooh. What they thought would be a new beginning Toast to us. is becoming a dead end. Somebody tried to kill you last night. We have to go to the police. If he wanted to be dead, he could have done it. and the mistake they made
Starting point is 00:23:12 It was an accident. There was no accident. It was murder. What if he's still alive? Hey! What are you doing here? is coming back to haunt them. Oh, my gosh. He's after me, too.
Starting point is 00:23:22 I got a letter. I got run over. Helen gets her hair chopped off. Julie gets a body in a truck and you get a letter? That's balanced. She's waiting for us to unravel. The wait is over. What are you waiting for, huh?
Starting point is 00:23:36 What are you waiting for? Hello? I know what you did last summer. Wow. The vibe of that trailer. My God. When those graphics came in, the sound effects on those graphics. Full screen. That was all over the place. Oh my
Starting point is 00:24:28 God, what a crazy trailer. Is the movie like that? Have you never seen it, Sammy? I have, but it's been forever. I don't really remember much of it. Is it good? Because honestly, after that trailer, I'm like, I want to fucking watch this movie. It looks fun. Yeah, honestly, it was fun. It was really fun. It's definitely
Starting point is 00:24:44 in the vibe of Scream, but honestly, less scary than Scream. Like, not as scary as Scream. God, it's so 1997. Also, oh my god, I love, I love when a movie decides to the, like, transition between, like, they were doing well and now they're not. Like, Jennifer
Starting point is 00:24:59 Love Hewitt, like, the summer, the first summer has these, like, luscious curls and then she has, like like the scraggliest fucking bangs I've ever seen like just dry spaghetti on her forehead. Yep. It's been a tough year. She's not doing well. Look
Starting point is 00:25:15 at her bangs. Are you doing drugs on her like concerned mom who's in like literally just one scene in the entire movie? Wow. I can't wait. Absent parents. I can't wait. Absent parents is a big one. I feel like especially in the 90s. Like in not
Starting point is 00:25:31 even just horror movies. Every parent in the 90s was like, anyway, I'm off for the weekend. See ya. Yeah. There's a part where Sarah Michelle Gellar and her sister, like they run a family store, I guess. But it's like just them running it. Where are their parents? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:25:47 It's also kind of fun that it seems like Sarah Michelle Gellar's character and Freddie Prinze Jr.'s character are two different couples. They're not coupled together. That was actually a trivia that I didn't mention, which is that throughout the whole film, they only actually talk to each other twice, even though they're in a bunch of scenes together. But they never actually like address each other.
Starting point is 00:26:07 They don't have like a lot of a lot of lines to each other. They probably talked more while they were filming. Off camera, they probably talked more. They definitely talked more off filming. I bet they talked more than that. Wow. They all look so beautiful and so 90s. They're so young and beautiful and hot.
Starting point is 00:26:24 It's unbelievable. They're so cute. They're like such little 90s babes.s. They're so young and beautiful and hot. It's unbelievable. They're so cute. They're like such little 90s babes. Yeah, they're so great. And the outfits are so fun. The brown lipstick. That kind of makeup. Yes. It's like really, really, really shiny eyeshadow. Like really like very
Starting point is 00:26:39 shimmery light eyeshadow. Wow. I'm excited. Let's freaking hear about it.

I used to love back to school shopping so much that I would tell my mom that
Starting point is 00:27:52 I wanted to work at Staples when I grew up because I just loved getting all the things that I needed that I would use every day in class. I still to this day have nightmares about showing up in class without notebooks or number two pencils. Really scary stuff. But luckily I wake up and I realize I don't actually need notebooks or number two pencils anymore. But this fall there is something that I will be using every day and would be terrified to be caught without. And that's Raycon's best-selling everyday earbuds. I've been trying to go on walks every day and so I need earbuds that I can rely on to listen to all my favorite podcasts. And I know you guys listen to podcasts as well, so you know what I'm talking about. I got my Raycons in carbon black because that's my vibe, but they come in other cool colors as well, like forest green and brush
Starting point is 00:28:55 violet. But my favorite thing about them is the battery life. They stay charged for 32 hours and they have a new quick charge function.

Starting point is 00:30:06 We're having a good time. Um, we see waves crashing on a beach. It's like 1997. You know what I mean? It's like, things are good. Um,
Starting point is 00:30:14 we zoom in on a young man and he's holding some kind of charm necklace. He's sitting on a cliff drinking, looking pretty upset and then fireworks start and we transition into, um, over to the next town near where this guy was sitting. It's a small seaside town, lots of fishing boats, that kind of vibe. It's the 4th of July. There's a parade and they're a big festival. Lots of crowds, lots of people hanging out. Still like this really fun cover of Summer Breeze playing in the background. And they're celebrating the Croaker Queen Festival.
Starting point is 00:31:00 Oh, the Croaker Queen. The Croaker Queen. I know it well. Oh, the Croaker Queen. The Croaker Queen. I know it well. And I don't really know why this is a thing because the name of the town is Southport, North Carolina. I don't know who the Croaker, whatever, whatever. That's the name of the festival. Croaker Queen Festival. And then we go into a little auditorium that's jam packed that has like a little stage on it and it's all these women who are lined up um with their bathing suits on and their high heels on hair all done up and sarah
Starting point is 00:31:37 michelle geller is front and center baby oh yeah um looking extremely confident having the time of her goddamn life she is owning the stage everyone loves her she she embodies the spirit of the queen as you should um and then her friends jennifer love hewitt Freddie Prince Jr. and Ryan Felipe, who I guess. OK, so their names are. So Jennifer Love Hewitt is Julie. Sarah Michelle Gellar's Helen. Ryan Felipe's Barry and Freddie Prince Jr. is Ray. Barry.
Starting point is 00:32:18 Barry. I know it's kind of funny. They're kind of funny names. Helen. Helen and Barry. All my peers.en and barry helen and barry um so they're all in the back uh they're in the balcony screaming rooting for her um and julie is amazed at how helen is so comfortable and looks so great on stage.
Starting point is 00:32:46 She's just like so impressed with her friend. You can tell that Julie is kind of like the nice girl. She has brown hair. She has brown hair. Exactly. Exactly. She's nice and shy. She's the nice one.
Starting point is 00:33:01 But she's all bouncy and happy. And then Freddie Prince Jr. and Ryan Felipe. So Ryan Felipe is her... Is it Philippe? Oh, is it Philippe? I say Felipe. I don't know. Is it Reese Witherspoon's ex-husband? Is that the same guy?
Starting point is 00:33:20 Is he bad? Is he a bad man? According to Dumois. Is he a bad man? I think he is he a bad man according to Dumois is he a bad man I think he is a really I think he's just like a player he's a player and apparently just like hooks up
Starting point is 00:33:39 with 20 year olds different 20 year olds every night and apparently his like children won't speak to him because they are grossed out by his behavior because now he's 40 more than that? At least yeah he's probably in his 40s would be my guess
Starting point is 00:33:55 yeah I think he's also been accused of domestic violence with Reese I think wasn't there something? oh I don't know and maybe Abby Cornish. That's who he was married to after. Yeah, I think there's been some stuff with that, too, which is not good.
Starting point is 00:34:13 We can maybe cut all this. I needed context. I'm sorry. I just needed context in my own brain of like who he is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay, that guy, that guy. He's not good. He's not good.
Starting point is 00:34:21 You could just call them by those names if you want no by their real human it's really hard honestly I was really struggling with this throughout my notes I interchange them yeah it's hard to do especially when it's like people you know yeah when it's these
Starting point is 00:34:39 when they're famous why do I think it was Philippi because I'm very stupid i've never heard it said i don't think i've heard it said either it could be either could be i don't know i could be it should be philippe but what do i but what what am i saying can we should we just continue i don't know what i'm doing let's keep going i'm sorry all right so um barry ryan felipe is dating sarah michelle geller helen so barry and helen are together and julie and ray are together um and so barry and ray are then also making some casual like sexist comments about Helen, talking about the size of her breasts, et cetera, et cetera.
Starting point is 00:35:28 Julie is like, guys, stop it. Ha ha ha. And then the it's the portion of the contest where the guy on stage asks. He he, you know, it's the Q&A portion. And he asks Helen in the spirit of Mother Teresa, what will you do to give back to the world? And she takes the mic and she's so confident and completely commands the stage. And she says, at the end, at summer's end,
Starting point is 00:35:57 I'll pursue a career as a serious actress. Through art, I shall serve my country. And the crowd goes wild they fucking love it they eat it up and you guessed it she wins croaker queen very exciting um so then afterwards favorite prize she loves the croaker queen festival um afterwards there's an after party. Julie and Helen are walking through the crowd. They're chatting. We find out that Julie's planning on becoming a lawyer. And she will be moving to Boston after summer is over. Helen and her sister run into each other. So Helen's older sister looks only like a few years older than her.
Starting point is 00:36:47 And they clearly don't like each other. Her sister says something really like, she's just kind of like an asshole to her. They have a tense exchange where she asks if she wants a ride home. Helen is like, no. And her sister's basically like,
Starting point is 00:37:02 oh, it's Croaker Queen getting sauced again tonight. They're just not friends at all. Max, who is a kind of dorky waiter, he brings Julie a shot on the house. And when he gives it to her, he asks her out. And she's clearly not into it and does not want to get involved. Are they in high school? They're about to go to college.
Starting point is 00:37:29 They're about to go to college. They're seniors in high school. But are Julie and Ray dating? Yeah. So Julie and Ray are dating. So who's this Max guy? Max is just. Who's this Max guy thinking?
Starting point is 00:37:43 Max. Max is just Max is just Some other guy Who's trying To get in there He's shorter dorkier Like shorter no Shorter dorkier
Starting point is 00:37:55 Sorry is that rude to say Have you seen the height of my boyfriend sir Cause you're slush so Oh that's yeah No not that that means anything. He's just being presented in the film as the less lesser option. Yes, exactly. 100%.
Starting point is 00:38:12 Um, Freddie Prince, baby. We get it. We get it. Yeah, of course. Um, but the thing that's weird about it is that she also doesn't say like I'm dating Ray. She says, she just says like awkwardly says no and like doesn't really know what to do. So I think she's kind of just hooking up with Ray.
Starting point is 00:38:26 You know what I mean? They're not like exclusive necessarily. But he keeps pushing it until Barry gets in between them. Barry is clearly very drunk, having a great time already, just shoves his way in between them. It's very crowded. And he is like wants to do a cheers to being young. And he pushes Max. And then Max gets pissed off and pushes back.
Starting point is 00:38:57 And then they get into a fight until Freddie Prinze breaks it up. And Max looks pissed. And they're all kind of mean to him and like say mean things about him. And clearly they're not friends with Max. They don't like Max. Max looks hurt and pissed and walks off into the corner. I'm getting some feelings about what Max might do for payback. I wonder if Max would get revenge. I wonder. Might do her payback. I wonder if Max would get revenge. I wonder. So they all drive drunkenly to the beach.
Starting point is 00:39:29 They sit around on the beach with a bonfire. They tell scary stories. None of them are agreeing on how one of the ghost stories goes. Ray is telling them that the way that this one ghost story ends is that a boy and a girl are making out in a car. And then a lunatic killer that's escaped from the asylum has a hook for a hand. And they hear like a scratch, scratch, scratch on the car. And then they're all arguing and they're like, that's not how it is. It's the drip, drip, drip and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Starting point is 00:40:01 And he's like, you guys are all wrong. And Julie is like, basically like, cut the shit, you guys. It's just a myth to warn young women about the dangers of premarital sex. And Ray goes, actually, honey, and you know how terrified I am of your IQ, but it's just an urban legend. And he gets very serious, and it's weird because he diminishes her intelligence. They keep ragging on Julie for being the smart one, and it's uncomfortable. It's also just
Starting point is 00:40:34 accepted throughout the film. That they're all going to make fun of her for being the smart girl. I think she'll have the last laugh. Anyway. So, then they just cut to them. They've broken off and they've coupled off. Helen and Barry are making out.
Starting point is 00:40:55 She's mapping out their future while they're making out. She says that she's going to become a soap star. He'll be a football, a football player. They'll have three kids. And then she casually also says, and then you'll go to rehab and then we'll live happily ever after. Oh, boy. So it's pretty clear that Barry, Ryan Fleabay, is an alcoholic. Everyone is well aware of the fact that he has a drinking problem. It seems to be out in the open. Cut to Ray and Julie, who are having the vibe is very different over there. It's very the music
Starting point is 00:41:34 changes. It becomes very moody. They're having a really sad conversation about how things are ending and how they're going to really miss each other. She's going to Boston and he's going to New York. And then they kind of like look at each other and then agree that, yeah, now's the time and they are going to have sex. So yeah, so they have, they start having sex and the camera pans away with this moody music playing and you just see like the waves crashing in the distance so everyone has had a good night they're all walking back to their car honestly i doubt it a first time on the beach they didn't have a great time no i always think that too anytime anyone's about to have sex on a beach i'm like that looks horrible also like no blanket you're like on a rock oh my god oh no no no no terrible
Starting point is 00:42:28 not interested no but ray and julia look very happy and in love as they walk back to the car um same with helen and barry except barry is like wasted and and Helen is insisting that um he can't drive um that she she's trying to get him to give her her key his keys he keeps being like no one drives my car but me like no one drives my car but me he's very alpha male um and finally they wrestle the keys from him and they agree that Ray will drive. So Ray gets in the driver's seat with Helen next to him or with Julie next to him. And then Helen and Barry are in the backseat. They're all driving home. Barry continues to be extremely annoying in the backseat, making lots of noise like ramming the seat screaming
Starting point is 00:43:28 yeah throwing a tantrum being like no one drives my car but me like and they're like dude like calm the fuck down all of them are clearly like so over barry they're just like fuck you barry you You're so annoying. Barry then opens his sunroof, gets up, stands up out of the sunroof, starts screaming, going around, blah, blah, blah. He's drinking a huge bottle
Starting point is 00:43:55 of liquor, some kind of scotch while he's screaming. Barry's out of control. Barry's out of control. They're driving down this very windy street, the one that they shot in California that clearly does not exist
Starting point is 00:44:10 in North Carolina. It's like on the coast. It's very clearly not North Carolina. It looks extremely California. Yeah, very California. They're driving along the street and he drops the bottle of liquor and as ray goes to like pick it up he hits someone
Starting point is 00:44:31 some something some black thing comes into the uh yeah hits the windshield they all scream um they stop the car they get out uh barry is covered in blood that is he like press like goes to his face and they're like oh my god are you okay and he's like it's not mine it's not my blood um they keep saying like oh it must be a deer it was a deer it must be a deer so It was a deer. It must be a deer. So they get out. They like have flashlights. They look around. Julie finds a boot. They all start screaming.
Starting point is 00:45:14 It must be a deer's boot. Oh, it's okay. It's got to be a deer. It's got to be a deer. Yeah. It's probably a boot, a tiny little boot for a deer. A little hook boot. It's the cutest little boot you've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:45:28 Wait, Emily, let me tell you that today. Oh no. I was looking for presents for your baby show. Oh boy, I can't wait to hear this. And I googled newborn hoof booties. That's fucked up and let me tell you there are none there are none
Starting point is 00:45:49 if you can believe it I wanted hoof shoes for oh my god a little newborn like a little wormy newborn with just little hoofs wait and mittens if you could get That is sweet. Wait, and mittens. If you could get little ones with mittens, too, that would be great.
Starting point is 00:46:10 We're going to have to make them. There must be someone on Etsy who can do this. You've got to be able to custom order newborn hooves. It's shocking that they don't already exist. I'm shocked. Thank you so much for being such a good friend and always having my back and wanting the best for my children i appreciate that um only the best hoops only the best hoops for my kids um all right so they quickly look around a little more
Starting point is 00:46:42 they very quickly discover there is a bloody man on the side of the street. They scream some more. They seem to think he's dead. Ray gets down and checks his pulse. He doesn't feel anything. He thinks he's dead. The girls are like, we need to call the police. We need to call the police.
Starting point is 00:47:00 The boys are like, no, let's think about this for a second. Like, this is manslaughter. We get in huge trouble. Yeah. Barry is like, Barry is like, I'm wasted. I can't go to the police right now. And they'll be like, we'll just tell them Ray was driving. He wasn't drunk at all.
Starting point is 00:47:22 And they're like, they'll never believe him. Only I drive my car. It's my identity. So they're, they argue about it back and forth for a while. Um, they're like, think about our future. Like Julie, think about your future. Do you really want this? You're about to go off and become like a big fancy lawyer. Do you really want this on your record? They make the decision. We all know that they're going to make, which is to hide the body. Leave them.
Starting point is 00:47:53 Book it. Yep. Yeah. Exactly. So nothing bad will happen. Nothing bad will happen. This is a surefire way to fix this problem. Honestly, why go to the cops and deal with it when you can just walk away and never have anything to do with it? Never talk about it again.
Starting point is 00:48:11 So, there's also a comment where Ray says something like, I don't have the family money to get myself out of this like you do, Julie. Like, I would, you know, whatever.
Starting point is 00:48:25 So, Julie's the one who's the most conflicted for sure. She's like tortured over this right as they decide that they're going to dump the body. A car starts driving towards them and they are like, oh the road, like in the headlights of the oncoming car. And it's just so extremely conspicuous. Quick, quick, quick, right in their line of vision. Make sure we're lit. Make sure we're lit. Quick, quick, quick, quick, quick. But they bring the body over to like the other side um to hide it they saw us oh thank god and uh the car is a truck it comes it slows down and who's driving it's max max is driving shocked umed. They're like, Julie, go distract him. He likes you.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Show him your tits. Show him your tits. Yeah, basically. So Julie has to go up and talk to him and be like, everything's fine. We're good. What's up, Max? And Max is like, you guys are so suspicious right now. What's going on?
Starting point is 00:49:40 Barry pretends to be throwing up by the body to like cover up what they're doing. So they Max is kind of just like, all right, you guys are fucking weird, but whatever. And then drives off. So then they take the body. They're not going to dump it there. They take the body to a dock where a fishing dock where they plan to dump him. Julie's like, should we check his wallet? See who he is.
Starting point is 00:50:10 Barry's like, no, stop holding us up. Let's just fucking do this. They go to push him off the dock. The body, as they go to push him off the dock, lurches up. He's alive the person is alive he grabs Helen's crown which I guess she's been wearing this whole
Starting point is 00:50:32 time because she's the croaker queen as is her right as croaker queen she didn't take it off the whole god damn night he grabs Helen's crown and falls into the water and then Barry immediately dives in after him to get the crown he grabs Helen's crown and falls into the water. And then Barry immediately dives in after him to get the crown.
Starting point is 00:50:51 So he's like, yeah, that's why. Not to save him, to get the crown. So he struggles with this man underwater over the crown until he gets it. He grabs it. And then the man like opens his eyes and it's a big jump scare. He freaks out. He gets out of the water he has the crown i don't know they're all freaking out and they just leave they just like decide to leave do they think that the man is now dead or alive they think that he'll die in the water he's drowning drowned yeah so now they've left him to die yes now they've committed a murder at this at this point right basically that's tough that's
Starting point is 00:51:34 yeah that's worse that's yeah it's worse i would call it worse yeah it's definitely worse julie is not okay with this she is very tortured about this choice she is freaking out but everyone else is like it's too late like we just have to deep except we're in too deep like super not so not like they could have saved this man clearly they decide not to um instead they agreed to never speak about it again and they make a pact that they will take it to the grave Julie won't agree to the pact until Barry
Starting point is 00:52:12 strangles her he pushes her up against the car like strangles her and says makes her say it that she'll keep it the secret until she dies it's really funny to think that like her saying it will make a difference. Well, it's a pact, so...
Starting point is 00:52:28 You can't go back on a pact. Especially when taken under extreme duress. I was going to say, if someone's strangling me, I'm going to agree to that pact. Yeah, you better. So she starts crying, but she agrees. As they drive away, they zoom in on the same charm that the man in the beginning was holding. That's all.
Starting point is 00:52:52 That's like line on in the. It's on like. Near the dock. OK. OK. Where they just were. Interesting. Then cut to image of a college campus.
Starting point is 00:53:02 We get one year later. OK. Across the screen we're on a college campus we're with Julie she is in her room she's working typing away in her big old 1997 laptop her roommate comes in and is like Julie come
Starting point is 00:53:20 on it's time to go we like you've waited as long as possible like I need to bring you home. Julie turns around. She is struggling. You know, she had those bouncy curls in the beginning. She was so happy and bouncy. Now her hair is so straight. She's does not look happy. She's very pale. There's a lot of comments made about how pale she is. Her roommate keeps talking about how it's like
Starting point is 00:53:49 time for her to go home for the summer and like brighten up and get rid of that pale pallor. Fool-proof cure for depression. Just go home and go outside. Go outside. Go home to the place that you've committed the murder
Starting point is 00:54:07 so tan okay you pale little lady tan your problems away um so she goes home her roommate drops her drives her home she drops her off um she's having dinner with her mom. She's not really eating. She's clearly very depressed. And her mom is just says, are you on drugs? And Julie is like, how dare you? No. And her mom was like, I just need to say something to get any kind of a reaction out of you. Like, what's wrong with you? You don't look okay.
Starting point is 00:54:41 No, mom, I did a murder. How dare you think it's drugs? It was a murder. I don't look okay i did a murder how dare you think it's drugs it was a murder i don't do drugs i murder people get it straight um she's also clearly not doing well in school like her report card came home which i guess that still happens in college. I forgot that you still get report cards. Not to your parents. Yeah. But I guess actually, though, like, by the time I was in college, my grades always were posted
Starting point is 00:55:12 in an online portal. So maybe they did mail them. Yeah, that's true. How else would you get them? For the summer, at least, you know? Yeah, I guess so. Well, she's gotten her grades, and she's not doing well, like, so badly that her scholarship might actually be taken away. Remember checking those online portals for your grades and being like, oh, they're not posted yet.
Starting point is 00:55:30 Oh, the grades are up. Not really. Remember being in school? I like honestly don't remember that at all. Oh, man, I do. Yeah, I don't remember school. I don't remember school. Her mom is like, you don't call, you don't visit.
Starting point is 00:55:47 And then she's like, oh, by the way, someone gave you this, dropped off this note for you. It just says her name, Julie James on the front. She opens it up. There's no postmark. There's no return address. And it says, you guessed it. I know you did last summer. Dun, dun!
Starting point is 00:56:07 Julie freaks out and is like, who sent you this letter? Blah blah blah. And her mom's like, I don't fucking know. What does this letter say? And Julie's like, nothing. And then runs upstairs. So then Julie in a very cool, fun set
Starting point is 00:56:22 of baggy overalls and her fun necklaces goes to Helen's family store in town to find Helen um she goes into the store it's kind of this like they're they sell lots of different things they sell clothes they sell like perfume I don't know it's one of those kind of general stores that used to exist it really feels like something from olden times 1997 present times it feels the days of your it feels very like um uh uh oh, what's it called? The game that you would play when you're crossing. No, the wagon.
Starting point is 00:57:09 Oh, Oregon Trail? Oregon Trail? It feels very Oregon Trail to me. I feel like there are going to be like bags of seed and flour somewhere in the store. Anywho, she goes in to talk to her sister to be like, hey, do you know Helen's New York number? I need to get in touch with her about something. She goes in to talk to her sister to be like, hey, do you know Helen's New York number? I need to get in touch with her about something. And her sister is like, Helen's New York number. Like, try the perfume section 10 feet that way.
Starting point is 00:57:35 Helen is working in this store. She did not. A failed actress. Yes. So Julie is like shocked and goes over and is like helen oh my god um what happened to new york and helen is like i went it didn't work out i came home i gave it a thorough try yeah and i'm back so julie shows her the Clearly, they also they like have not spoken since last year. Julie shows her the note the whole time.
Starting point is 00:58:10 Helen's sister is in the background looking very suspicious, like trying to listen to their conversation, looking like very like stressed. Helen is obviously shocked to see the note. And she's like, we have to go see Barry. So they go to a house where I guess Barry's living. I guess it's his parents' house. I don't know. It's a really nice house. I'm not really sure what the deal is with this house.
Starting point is 00:58:35 But Barry's there wearing a wife beater, which I can't believe is the name of that shirt. But that's what he's wearing. And he's drinking and he's still such an asshole um him and helen have clearly broken up he tells them that they like look terrible he's like you guys should look in a mirror once in a while like you guys don't look so good um well her hair is he's just flat he's right about her hair she is right about her hair when you're right you're right and um basically they're like what what do we think happened and barry's like it's not that big of a deal like whatever we need to forget about it we agreed
Starting point is 00:59:17 we'd never talk about it again um and julie is like but what about this note? What could it mean? And she tells them that the person who they killed was David Egan. He was found three weeks after they dumped the body. The police called it an accidental drowning. There was an article about it in the paper. it in the paper. Barry thinks that it's Max. He's like, it was obviously Max, uh, who's fucking with us now. Who's, who's sending us this, these messages. He's just being an asshole. He's the only one who would, who would know, um, like we need to go confront him. So, um, they drive to the fishing docks where Max is working. Um, And he goes and confronts him. He like strangles him. He pushes Max up against the wall. There's a fishhook nearby, takes the fishhook and he like threatens him with the fishhook. And he's like, I'm going to fucking kill you. You say anything about what happened? Max is like, I don't know what you're talking about. what happened max is like i don't know what you're talking about what you're crazy i have no idea what's going on what are you doing and then barry slices his face with a fish hook and holy shit
Starting point is 01:00:33 pushes him on the ground yeah um and max is still like what i don't know. Okay. Like, what? You're crazy. I have no idea what this is. While they are down by the docks, they run into Ray. Ray, who never made it to New York either. He has become a fisherman. I don't know why that's really funny to me.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Seeing your friend might have been like, oh, you're a fisherman now. They're all fishermen now. Honestly, being a fisherman now they're all fishermen now honestly sounds kind of cool it sounds great he i think he's doing the best of all of them honestly um so yeah julie tells him about the letter she shows him the letter and he's like it's probably max i'm sure he's just screwing around like Like, let's let's not worry about this. Let's not make it into a bigger deal that it needs to be. Then he says he's been thinking about her a ton since last summer.
Starting point is 01:01:34 And he knows that she blames him for what happens. And she's like, I don't blame you. I take responsibility for my own actions. And then she's like, but I don't want to know you either. And then she runs off away. she literally turns around and runs away um then we cut to max who is back working in the fish place is what i call it fish place what do you call that fishery fish place fishery fishery um he's inside he's moving some buckets around it's very steamy in there steamy fish um it's super steamy buckets it's hard to see what's going on cut face fish steam
Starting point is 01:02:16 um and while he's working away all of a, a figure in a black cloak appears out of nowhere with a fishhook and just hooks him in the throat. Ay yi. And drags him across the buckets. And he's done so. So Max has just been Max. Not Max. Interesting. the buckets and and he's done so. So Max has just been Max. Not Max. Interesting.
Starting point is 01:02:50 OK. Max was a red herring. Not Max. Definitely not Max. Yeah. So that happens. Then we cut to Barry who's at a gym.
Starting point is 01:03:01 He's working out. He's punching some things. He's very sweaty. He's getting his swole gym. He's working out. He's punching some things. He's very sweaty. He's getting his swole on. Noise. Noise. Somehow he's in this gym
Starting point is 01:03:13 completely alone too. There's no one else there. He goes into the locker room. He starts changing to take a shower. He hears a weird noise.'s like hello and no no one says anything so he gets in the shower he's showering again no one in this gym no one in the locker room no one in the showers he's completely empty also like all the lights
Starting point is 01:03:39 are basically off too so you you get it yeah um he sees a mysterious shadow that freaks him out he yells hello again um nothing there he doesn't know what's going on when he gets out of the shower he goes back to his locker and there's a polaroid of his car parked out front with a note that says i know so he's like holy shit and starts to freak out a little bit and starts like running around the locker room looking for the person is like where the fuck are you like what the fuck he comes back to his locker and by the time he gets back to his locker his locker is open and his jacket his favorite jacket is gone I know

Starting point is 01:04:44 oh my god you're so right really tough I mean, what he did for that crown. What's he going to do? Oh my God, you're so right. Really tough. So he goes outside to look for, to see if like what's going on. When he gets outside, his car turns on and the lights turn on and someone starts driving it. Nobody drives that car but him. Away from the gym. Yeah, but no one drives that car but him. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:05:10 So he chases after the car because he's like, no one drives it but me. That's how he knows that it's not him driving. Wait a minute. I'm out here. Who's inside? So anyway, so he starts chasing the car uh then the car turns around
Starting point is 01:05:31 revs the engine the car starts chasing him um he's like oh fuck fuck fuck starts running away from the car the car the car just keeps going after him uh eventually it pins him up against fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck is looking a little worse for wear obviously and a man and some large human in a dark rain coat could be anyone but it's large and in a coat probably a man
Starting point is 01:06:19 could be a deer could be a deer this movie would be so much better if it was a deer this whole time a deer in a man. It's a whole record. Could be a deer. This movie would be so much better if it was a deer this whole time. A deer in a cloak. Cloak and boots. In the cutest little boots you've ever seen. Anyway, so a man in the rain slicker and a scary mask hat combo stands over him menacingly. Yeah, with a hook.
Starting point is 01:06:46 And then it cuts away. And I really thought I was like, Oh wow. I guess that he was murdered and they didn't show it. I really thought that. But then you immediately cut to a hospital and no, he's alive and well, he just has some scratches.
Starting point is 01:07:02 He was, his life was spared. He was not killed. So we're in the hospital. The whole crew has come to visit him. They're obviously freaked out. They're like, what the hell happened? And he's still like, it's not a big deal.
Starting point is 01:07:21 And he tries to say that Ray has a similar coat and it was must have been Ray who wanted him dead. So he's trying to blame it on Freddie Prince Jr., which, like, doesn't make any sense. And he's like, no, it wasn't me, dude. They try to convince the three of them, Ray, Julie, and Helen are like, we have to go to the police. Barry's like, no. We're going to find out we murdered him. Like, no, we can't.
Starting point is 01:07:54 We can't go to the police. So they're like, okay, the only thing we can do is try to find the guy who did this, who tried to kill you. So let's try to figure out who that person is maybe we can just go talk to him maybe talk some sense into this guy have you tried talking to him so that's the plan so julie and helen now we get our research montage love it um julie and helen
Starting point is 01:08:20 go home they bring out julie's big old college laptop. I was going to say a 97 research montage. Mm-hmm. They do a little search for David Egan. They're reading through newspaper articles about him and they find out that David Egan two years before he or a year before he died
Starting point is 01:08:39 he was in another car accident where a woman named Susie Willis died and he survived and he was the driver of the car. Um, they, in the article, they say that he was survived by his sister and his mom. So they look, Julie and Helen look up where the sister and the mom live it's out in the country and they decide they must go visit the sister and the mom of david egan to find out what a great idea while they're driving out into the country helen is like do we have a plan? And Julie's like, no, let's just play it by ear.
Starting point is 01:09:26 Let's just scope it out. Let's just play this by ear. And Helen's like, I feel like we should have a plan of what we're going to say. Well, we're 19, we're stressed, we committed a murder, let's play it by ear. Yeah, so they don't make a plan. They decide to play it by ear. And I got to tell you, they are so suspicious during this entire experience. They go up.
Starting point is 01:09:52 So they park outside, like down the driveway from this house, which is way out in the country. They walked on the driveway. They like knock on the door. No one answers. So they go around the side of the house. They like start knocking on the window, like being like, hello, hello. Is anyone in there? Then Julie starts to like break of the house. They start knocking on the window, being like, hello, hello, is anyone in there? Then Julie starts to break into the house. And then right
Starting point is 01:10:10 when that happens, Anne Hesch comes around the corner. Yeah, is that Anne Hesch? Is that how you say it? Who knows? Who knows? And who cares? Her name is Missy Egan.
Starting point is 01:10:25 She's David Egan's sister. Julie and Helen are like super awkward and they've just been basically caught trying to break into the house. But they're like, oh, our car stalled and we just are hoping to use your phone to call AAA. And she's like, sure come in um so she brings them into the house there is a big old rain slicker in the house that they clock they're like what's that um we're getting like some texas chainsaw vibes i'd say for sure. Not fully yet, but like, it's a little weird, you know? Um,
Starting point is 01:11:08 she makes them a cup of tea while they wait. While, uh, they wait for triple a, um, they're extremely not chill during this entire experience. Um, they keep asking extremely conspicuous questions,
Starting point is 01:11:24 including Sarah Michelle Gellar is like, so like, who did David hang out with? Like, I'm just making triple A waiting conversation. Tell me about your dead brother. Yeah. So your brother died.
Starting point is 01:11:40 So who did he hang out with? Who are his friends? And then Anne Heche doesn't find the question weird. Instead, she's like, she's like, I didn't know his friends that well. But there was one guy who came to pay his respects. He was really nice, cute and smart. We were sweet on each other for a while, but it didn't work out. I think it just hurt him to be around me.
Starting point is 01:12:06 And they're like putting the pieces together. And they're like, oh, my God, who is this guy? What's his name? And they're like, where is this old friend now? And then they asked, do you remember his name? Which is so funny because you just told him they were like in a relationship, basically. They're like, do you remember what his name was? And it's like, yeah, she would um so his name was billy blue and when they find that out i don't know julie
Starting point is 01:12:34 starts to get overwhelmed and she says like i need to leave i need to go wait in the car um while for triple AAA to come. Like she just gets really weird and then runs out. The whole situation is very awkward and weird. So then they cut to their Julie's crying in the car. Overwhelmed that they killed someone. Helen is like, it was an accident. You're giving us too much power.
Starting point is 01:13:02 It wasn't, you know, it wasn't our fault. And Julie's like, know, it wasn't our fault. And Julie's like, yes, it was. And then there's a jump scare where the sister bangs on the window and screams, hey, you forgot your cigs, which they had cigarettes. I don't remember that at all before this. And then she's like, it looks like you got your car going. And then Julie's like, yeah, we did. And they drive off. They drive back to Julie's house.
Starting point is 01:13:33 And Helen says to Julie, like, what happened to us? We used to be good friends. I miss you. Like, I want to be friends again. I know exactly what happened. But, you know, Helen's just really not taking it as hard as Julie is. But it did derail,
Starting point is 01:13:53 I think, her plans to become a serious actress and serve the world through her art. So, to be fair, that's happened. Julie doesn't say anything. Sarah Michelle Gellar is pissed and gets out of the car and is like, whatever, fuck this. So she goes back home.
Starting point is 01:14:15 Helen goes back home. She walks inside. Her dad's drinking, watching baseball. She goes into the kitchen to have a Diet Coke, lots of beautiful imagery of this Diet Coke. Um, and then a person, I think pretty conspicuously, but nonetheless, uh, the dad doesn't notice a person in a large rain slicker and a hat walks into the house. Um, the dad just continues to drink and watch baseball. Doesn't notice a goddamn thing. Um, the dad just continues to drink and watch baseball.
Starting point is 01:14:44 Doesn't notice a goddamn thing. Sure. He walks up the stairs and, um, goes into her bedroom. And then Sarah Michelle Gellar comes out of the kitchen, walks up the stairs, goes into her bedroom. Um, but no one jumps out at her. She's in there. Okay. Uh, however, there's some shots of the closet. but no one jumps out at her. She's in there okay. However, there's some shots of the closet. Feels like
Starting point is 01:15:09 the guy's probably in the closet. Probably. Her sister comes in and is so mean. So mean to her. Again, for no reason. I think she's jealous she was croaker queen, I guess. Who can blame her? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:26 She says to be at the store by 10 tomorrow because she has to do inventory and Helen is like, I can't. I have to go to the parade. Croaker Queen ditties. The last year's winner of Croaker Queen has to be in the parade.
Starting point is 01:15:41 It's part of the rules of the situation. There's nothing I can do about it. And her sister is like, you're pathetic. Like I, you're so pathetic. Um, she's brushing her hair while this Helen is brushing her hair while this exchange happens. And she says like something about how you're so obsessed with your hair like i don't know whatever so sarah michelle geller is very sad her sister is so mean to her she gets in bed she turns off the light she goes to sleep she wakes up the next morning her croaker queen crown is on her head and her hair is all falling out and cut around the bed yeah um she is obviously very upset and starts screaming really loudly and on her mirror
Starting point is 01:16:40 it says soon in lipstick spooky andooky. And she screams some more and smashes the mirror. Like you do. Take that. Huge response. You gotta smash the mirror if that happens. And now when we say her hair's cut and all around what are we talking about?
Starting point is 01:16:59 It looks completely normal by the time she brushes it out. It's like a cute bob. Oh, she got a bob while she was sleeping. Yeah. It's just the hair was like left on her. Kind of. Okay.
Starting point is 01:17:13 But so they were kind of nice. They just gave her sort of a fresh summer cut. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. It's really not something to be too worried about. Okay. Great. The suit on the mirror more so maybe.
Starting point is 01:17:22 But the haircut's like, all right. I mean, I guess I would be a little worried if someone cut my hair in the middle of the night. No, you wouldn't be. Not if it looked good. If it looked good, then thank you so much for the haircut. Okay. So she calls Julie. Julie comes over.
Starting point is 01:17:38 However, Julie on her way over, she keeps hearing this weird rustling in her car. She's like, what's that? She pulls over. She, all the rustling is happening in her car she's like what's that she pulls over she all the rustling is happening in her trunk she opens the trunk and this is like i think the grossest scene it's a jump scare and inside is max and he's dead and there it's cover her trunk is covered in crabs and like shellfish and fish and there's a crab crawling out of Max's mouth. Ew.
Starting point is 01:18:08 It's very gross. It's very, very gross. She obviously freaks out. She slams the trunk. She goes and gets Barry and Helen and she brings them back to the trunk. She opens the trunk up. When she opens it again, it's all clean and fine.
Starting point is 01:18:24 And there's no Max there and there's no max there and there's no fish there i need extreme this this killer is very impressive with his timing i gotta say yeah i mean and also why take the time to fill a trunk with crabs when all you're gonna have to do is clean them out later i know i know so this is when we get the classic scene that was shot by a mysterious kid where she says, what are you waiting for? She runs out into the street, twirls around. I'd imagine they're waiting for the Crooked Queen Festival. Who knows?
Starting point is 01:18:55 Who knows? So they go to find Ray. Barry's still convinced that Ray did it. He punches him in the face. He accuses him of killing Max. He says he's the person who must be terrorizing him. Ray says it can't be him
Starting point is 01:19:10 because he also got a letter. But they're like, honestly, foolproof. Foolproof. Can't be me. I received mail. Everyone knows you can't write a letter to yourself. Nobody drives this car but me
Starting point is 01:19:25 so they decide to split up Helen and Barry go to the parade to look for the guy because they're convinced he'll be at the parade and then Julie goes to see Missy to ask her about Billy Blue to see to bring her a yearbook of their high school to see if she can identify who Billy Blue was in the yearbook.
Starting point is 01:19:53 So at the parade, Helen is, you know, on a float. She's the former croaker queen. And then Barry's sitting next to her her i guess he got to be on the float too um they have a moment where they look at each other they're in love again um and they're you know looking for the guy um and eventually helen sees, first Helen sees someone she thinks it's who it is, who is the guy. Uh, Barry is, freaks out, gets off the float, runs after him, but it's a misdirect. Later, she looks on the roof and she sees a very creepy man in a raincoat holding a
Starting point is 01:20:43 hook, looking at her menacingly. She seems to be the only one who can see this. Nonetheless, the guy is there. Meanwhile, Julie goes back to talk to Missy. This is when we get real strong Texas Chainsaw Massacre vibes at this house. There's like dead animals everywhere all of a sudden. While she's talking to Missy, Missy is straight up just gutting a fish outside, like with a bunch of fish. talking to missy missy is straight up just gutting a fish outside like with a bunch of fish um and julie's like i need to find out more about your brother and missy's like
Starting point is 01:21:12 my brother killed himself that night that's what happened my brother killed himself he was so distraught because everyone blamed him for the death of Susie Willis. The necklace. Yeah. Yeah. And everyone was blaming him. He blamed himself. He was so deeply upset about it.
Starting point is 01:21:39 And Julie's like, how do you know he killed himself? And she says he left a note. And so she's like, okay, what, what what's the note say so she brings in the note the note is in the same handwriting as the note that they got and it says i will never forget last summer so julie all of a sudden is like putting these pieces together and she's like trying to figure it out and she's saying like i think that i thought i think that we killed your brother we hit him with our car okay here we go he had a suzy tattoo on his arm and missy's like my brother didn't have any tattoos i don't know what the fuck you're
Starting point is 01:22:20 talking about like get out of my house um you're crazy get out of my house I don't want to talk to you anymore and Julie's putting something together and she's basically like what if we didn't kill David Egan what if that's not who this was seems like
Starting point is 01:22:40 you sort of just assumed then and you assumed wrong you made a huge thing to make an assumption about yeah yeah yeah yeah Seems like you sort of just assumed. And you assumed wrong. Yeah, you assumed wrong. You made a huge thing to make an assumption about. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So she's putting the pieces together.
Starting point is 01:22:56 Meanwhile, we're back to the Croaker Queen Festival. Helen's sitting on stage because I guess that's part of her duties as last year's queen. She just has to sit on stage throughout the performances. It's the talent portion. It's honestly pretty funny. There's like a girl who looks like she's straight up 45 years old, but is supposed to be like 18 in a bathing suit. No, I can be the croaker queen. I'm a teenager.
Starting point is 01:23:21 I can be the croaker queen. Hello, fellow croaker queens. Hi, teens. Also, me's one. And I've got a talent. And it's, you know, teen related. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. Very convincing.
Starting point is 01:23:36 So she's like rolling her eyes and is like, this is ridiculous. Up in the balcony where they were sitting last year is Barry. He's up in the balcony where they were sitting last year is Barry. He's up in the balcony like they're looking at each other, kind of laughing about this situation. You know, fun times. And as she's sitting on stage, she sees someone come up behind Barry. She starts screaming. She runs into the audience. She interrupts this poor girl's beautiful rendition of whatever song she was singing.
Starting point is 01:24:08 Then there's a scene like cutting back and forth between Barry being attacked, hooked and murdered. And while she is screaming and people are holding her back in the audience, like she's trying to get up into the balcony and people are holding her back, which is like, what do you do? I guess. I don't know. It's very tense back and forth. Very frustrating, honestly, is mostly how I felt watching this. The police, a police officer is there and she's like, I saw someone up in the balcony. They murdered, they're murdering my boyfriend. Like you have to go get Barry.
Starting point is 01:24:52 You have to go get Barry. And everyone is not looking at the balcony, just looking at her being like, she's crazy. That's crazy lady. Wow. Um, let's not look up in the balcony. Don't look in the balcony. Look at her. And so the police officer is like, OK, sweetie, like I'll go look in the balcony.
Starting point is 01:25:12 And so they he goes up. They look. There's nothing there. She's crying. She is like, you guys have to believe me. You have to believe me. And there no one believes her. So the police officer is like, I'll bring you home. You've clearly had like a tough night. back. The police officer is literally just making fun of her while she's crying.
Starting point is 01:25:47 Just belittling everything she's saying. It's extremely annoying. As they're driving home, they see a truck pulled over on the side of the street. The police officer is like, oh, I better help this man. So he pulls over. And
Starting point is 01:26:01 guess what? The man has a raincoat on. It's a murder! Yes! Can you believe it so helen watches as he gets hooked murdered right out there on the street sinker she hook line and sinker she starts screaming she's trapped in the back of the police car there's a scene like this in scream right it's like the same idea kind of she's like trapped in the back of the police car trying to get out um there's definitely a scene where she's trapped in a car and scream i can't remember a police car part but maybe it's not a police car a police officer dewey officer dewey officer dewey officer dewey um officer dewey how can we forget so she eventually she breaks
Starting point is 01:26:47 open the window she escapes the car she runs through the town she runs to the store her store her family store and um with the seed she starts yep she starts banging on the window. Her sister, you know, of course, has been in there all day diligently doing inventory. So, you know, she's screaming for her sister to come let her in. Her sister is taking her goddamn time, like really not concerned about it. It's kind of like, you're being so dramatic per usual. She like saunters over to the door she opens it she runs it and is screaming she's like i'm being attacked i'm being attacked like you go lock the front lock this door lock the back door um i'm gonna call the police and so her sister's still not believing her still taking her goddamn time um of course while while this happens, the man just goes around
Starting point is 01:27:46 the back door and comes in to the general store. Helen goes up to call the police. As she does, hook man in the store hooks her sister, just kills her.
Starting point is 01:28:02 And then drags her around the store. And that was pretty gross by the hook and her like in the back or where where are we getting hooked like in the front like in the front and like the stomach in the front and like the chest area through a freaking sternum
Starting point is 01:28:18 yeah it's pretty gross I think this also really distressed me in third grade when I saw this movie um makes sense yeah I won this movie. Sure, that makes sense. Yeah, I don't like that. Yeah, it's not good. So all of a sudden, like, the phone isn't working. Helen realizes that the man is probably in the building.
Starting point is 01:28:41 She starts walking around, being very quiet. Then she walks past the bathroom and she sees her sister is dead in the bathroom. She screams. She runs to escape. Can I tell you that? For a moment, I suspected the sister. Me too. I was about to say, my second guess
Starting point is 01:28:59 also wrong. Well, there are a lot of red herrings in this. I love it. I mean, I read a lot of red herrings in this. I love it. I mean, I read a lot of murder mysteries and I like murder mystery TV shows and you'd think that I would get better at getting, but I literally fall for the red herrings every single time.
Starting point is 01:29:15 I'm like, well, it's obviously this guy. Except you know what? In Marinistown, I think I know who it is. You do? We'll see. i want to know i want to know what you think but that's another conversation yeah i haven't even seen the show i just liked i like to know a mystery okay so anyway she runs around she jumps out of winter to escape she's running through an alleyway blah blah again all this running and the fish fish man hook guy like walks so slowly fish man hook guy nonetheless
Starting point is 01:29:46 catches up to her there's prey going on fireworks going off that's another like slasher trope though the slow walk they move slow yeah oh yeah definitely definitely uh attribute i was gonna it michael myers maybe could be um so she's ultimately caught in this alleyway fish man hook guy hooks her oh kills her damn she's she dies good yep helen so now helen and barry are both dunzo bunzo they both i don't think a hook would. I mean, I know a hook is not my weapon of choice, but I just don't. I just don't like it in general. Because then your person that you're trying to kill is also like stuck to you. Yeah. How do you get the hook out?
Starting point is 01:30:38 Same way you got it in. It also just seems like it takes a lot more force than my weapon of choice a fire poker yeah and like angle like a specific angle you know it's a tricky weapon tricky weapon props to this killer unless you're a fisherman yeah unless you're a fisherman yeah he knows how to handle this guy or deer we don't know sorry dear um for some reason now I'm imagining like Bojack Horseman dressed up and doing the murders
Starting point is 01:31:13 a hoofed creature on a hoofed creature exactly um okay so meanwhile we cut to Julie she's looking for Helen and Ray she can't find them. She gets to Ray's boat to tell him what she's discovered. She tells him like Ben Willis was the father of Susie.
Starting point is 01:31:36 She thinks that Ben Willis killed David Egan and that the man they ran over was Ben Willis. And he survived and is terrorizing them now. So that's what she has figured out. As she tells him this, she realizes that his boat is named Billy Blue. And so she freaks out. That confuses her. She freaks out. She's like, what the fuck?
Starting point is 01:32:04 She starts running away and he That confuses her. She freaks out. She's like, what the fuck? She starts running away and he chases after her. A man hits Ray stopping him and tells Julie to get on his boat to protect her or whatever. Julie listens. You never get on anybody's boat
Starting point is 01:32:19 to protect. No. No. No, no, no, no. No. No. You never get on anybody's boat no no it reminds me of of always sunny in philadelphia have you guys seen that um episode the dennis um i think it's the dennis system episode but they literally get a boat and it's like the most disgusting boat but dennis is like we got to bring girls onto this boat because then they won't be able to leave the boat they'll like have to be with us and Charlie Day is like
Starting point is 01:32:49 Dennis we're not going to do anything to these women right like he's like no no no oh god no of course not but the implication it's such a funny episode so I'm wary of going on boats with dudes because of yeah don't go on a boat with dudes no of reasons no thank you lots of reasons but that'd be one of them well it's definitely one of them um so but she does in this situation she has not uh heard
Starting point is 01:33:17 of any of warnings she probably hasn't seen always in philadelphia probably not exactly so she gets on the boat and immediately um immediately uncovers one of those creepy rooms where it's just pictures of everyone you know and newspaper articles and like clippings and one of those rooms one of those rooms the thing that's funny about it though is that they clearly put this set together super last minute because all the photos are just stills like from the movie. So it's literally just like them, you know, like like a day ago. That's really funny. That are taped up on the on the wall. And that seemed like a funny shot anyway. wall and that seemed like a funny shot anyway um so she is like oh no what have i done where am i oh no whose boat have i gotten onto this boat is not a safe boat there are pictures of me um uh the creepy guy comes in he attacks her she uh tries to get away he starts the boat and drives
Starting point is 01:34:31 them out into the water while she hides in the hull of the boat um meanwhile ray uh he knows she's on the boat right who the fisherman yeah The fisherman? Yeah. He brought her onto the boat. No, he drives the boat out into the water, I think, to keep her from getting off back onto the dock. Oh, but she's trying to hide so he doesn't know where on the boat she is. Yes. I see. I see. She just knows to be
Starting point is 01:34:58 afraid of him now, and he's trying to snatch her. He's trying to take her. He's snatching her. He's trying to snatch her. He's trying to take her. He's trying to snatch her. He's trying to snatch her. Meanwhile, Ray comes to save the day in his tiny little speedboat. And he drives up in his speedboat and gets off, gets onto the bigger boat, goes to attack the fisherman guy. They fight
Starting point is 01:35:25 and then Ray gets pushed off the side of the boat. Julie is in the hull of the boat. She's trying to escape. There's lots of shots of her just moving stuff around, you know, whatever. Arm boats, like barrels. Yeah, there's some doors. Eventually
Starting point is 01:35:41 there is a door that leads her into a room that's filled with ice. She gets into that room. Seems like a dangerous room in its own right. Yep. Ray somehow gets back on the boat after being pushed off the boat. Magically, he is completely dry, you guys, by the way. Uh-huh. way yes he has
Starting point is 01:36:06 gotten completely in the water we saw him in the water but he is dry now so that's just an accident I think he was a better director then yeah give us more craneshots more craneshots
Starting point is 01:36:21 this kid would have come in and been like the continuity here is all over the place I'm pretty sure that if a man falls in the ocean he would be wet right afterwards so anyway so Julie's back in this room filled with ice while she's in the room
Starting point is 01:36:36 she sees some dead bodies that are hiding in the ice she sees Helen's dead body and her sister Helen's sister's dead body and her sister, Helen's sister's dead body. And she starts screaming. She's freaking out. Don't scream. Yeah, well, too late.
Starting point is 01:36:56 The fisherman is like opening the door to get and is about to get Julie is about to hit her with the hook. And then right as he's about to hit her, Ray swings a huge rope thing right into him, making him collapse on the ground. Ray pulls Julie out of the ice room. The fisherman is now knocked unconscious on the boat. And they're like, oh my god, what are we going to do? And right then he wakes up.
Starting point is 01:37:34 He gets up. He goes to attack them again. But as he goes to pull the hook up to slice them, his arm gets caught in some lines and he gets pulled straight up all the way up the mast and his hook hand gets sliced off. And he falls into the ocean and the hook hand falls into the ocean. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:01 Then we cut to police that are on the boat. They seem to have gotten the boat back to the dock everything seems to be better now yeah everything's better things have calmed down i think everything's better sounds like a happy ending everything's good it's everything's good ray and julie are snuggling under a blanket they are now they seem to not be so upset about Helen and Barry's death. Instead, they're mostly just relieved that they didn't murder anyone and, uh, they're relieved of their guilt.
Starting point is 01:38:35 Um, and they're so happy to know that they're not murderers. Ray says that he loves her and she says that she understands his pain and then they hug um the sheriff comes up to them and is like why would this guy have wanted you dead and they're like we don't know um and then they find the hand with the hook but nobody yep yep cut to college campus again one year later julie is back to having those bouncy happy curls she is back to herself she's so happy works for hair like not being guilty of murder not so much more worried about being guilty of murder than like your former
Starting point is 01:39:28 best friend and another friend. They had gifted apart. So they gifted apart. We weren't that close anymore. Yeah. She's not concerned with that. So she's on the phone. She's having a great time. She's like, she's talking concerned with that so she's on the phone she's having a great time she's like
Starting point is 01:39:46 she's talking to ray she's talking about how she made uh the dean's list oh my god her grades are back to normal um and then she has mail her roommate brings her mail she looks at it there's a note it looks very similar to the note from the beginning. She starts to freak out. But then it's a fake out. It's just an invitation to a pool party. So she's like, I need to calm down. So she goes to take a shower.
Starting point is 01:40:18 It's very steamy in the shower. She gets out of the shower. And written on the mirror it says I still know and then someone breaks through the glass she screams and it cuts to credits end of the movie
Starting point is 01:40:36 oh wow so there's I think there are two other ones so um yeah there's definitely sequels definitely sequels but yeah
Starting point is 01:40:51 what a wild ride right you guys did you love every second of it it seems fun honestly it was really fun and it honestly wasn't it's not that scary it's really not scary it definitely I mean the, the trailer. The trailer is wild.
Starting point is 01:41:07 The trailer is like very more like teen vibe. Yeah. Even though, you know, I kept saying he hooked people, which is absolutely disgusting and that is scary. But the thing is, is it's not actually that violent. Like you barely even see it happen. And there's very limited blood. Right. And it's all very quick.
Starting point is 01:41:28 And it's not gratuitous. Well, I don't like his hand being sliced off. That part. I don't like that either. I have a feeling in the in the sequel, we're going to have sort of a Captain Hook situation. I believe that that hand is going to become a hook. Yeah, he's not giving up that hook what kind of doctor will give you a hook instead of a prosthetic hand that makes me think of buster bluth
Starting point is 01:41:52 why does buster bluth get a hook he gets eaten by a seal no but i know but why does he get a hook instead of his hand a loose seal I hated that I hated that too honestly that was a part about Arrested Moment that I really had a hard time with but it also is so fucking funny and I also hated
Starting point is 01:42:20 what's the guy is it Jean Parmesan who doesn't have an arm yeah yeah yeah i didn't like that uh part of him either but he also is really funny god that show is i know jessica walter absolute genius i know it's so sad so great she's so great that show is so fucking funny oh my god she was the best part she really was i know i'm gonna learn how to wink like her one day that's my goal it's it's gonna take some practice she's a master she's so good at it wait have you
Starting point is 01:42:58 guys seen there's like a that's really made me laugh there's like a tweet of, I guess, Nicole Kidman is playing Lucille Ball in like an upcoming movie. And someone like tweeted an on-set photo like, look at her. She like looks just like her. And there's like so many people reacting to it. Because Lucille Ball was so, like her facial expressions are like the biggest part of her comedy and nicole kidman has so much botox so much there's just no fucking way nicole kidman was the right choice for this yeah i can't imagine her face in any any way other than the normal way which there's so few actors that don't have that problem now that's true yeah there were no actors they could choose there is no one else
Starting point is 01:43:54 an unknown who can't afford all that plastic surgery except for olivia coleman you guys have heard this have we talked about this about how she had such a hard time playing the queen because she's so used to like being very reactive in her face. Interesting. For everything. And they were like, you can't do that. The whole point is for you not to react. And so it got so bad that what they actually did is they gave her an earpiece and they would play like podcasts into it.
Starting point is 01:44:25 gave her an earpiece and they would play like podcasts into it and they would tell her to just focus on the podcast and not listen to what the person was saying that she was because she literally like couldn't help herself like she would just react to what the person was saying even though she was trying so hard not to um so the way that she does such a good performance is by not paying any attention to the scene. Yeah. Yes. Insane. Insane. I love her.
Starting point is 01:44:50 She's incredible. But that is also, I feel like at that point, it's like, should we cast someone else? I know. Nope. No. And, you know, correct. She's great. But that's interesting.
Starting point is 01:45:04 Interesting. Wow. Henley, good job, baby! It's really hard to do that. I am so impressed with you, Sammy, for doing that all the time. It's not easy. It is hard. Emily, for also doing it when
