This is a HeadGum Podcast. This is Emily, Henley, and Sammy, and you're listening to Too Scary, Didn't Watch. Hi, everyone. Welcome to Too Scared to Watch. Live show. We're here. Hellchella, baby. It's Hellchella.

We're here. We're live. It always feels really insane. Thinking it's going to feel different from my end when I'm doing the exact same thing I'm always doing. And I always look like this. You look so beautiful. You look so beautiful. You look so beautiful. You look incredible. I've never felt better.

Did you do the skin colored eyebrows before you did the makeup? Yeah. Did you do the glue stick? I didn't do the glue stick. That would have been smart. No, I was really winging it. And I did concealer and I just pasted it on.

And then I used a spoolie. And then I put more concealer through my eyebrows um and then I did this um red sparkly eyeshadow that I have that I think neutralized the whole process you know it was really touch and go there for a minute but the good news is it looks really really really good it does it does and your hair looks so good too your hair is beautiful right now thank you this is why we do the live shows. This is what it's all for. Hello, it's Helcella.

We are live. And also, as we sit here today together, it is five years to the day from the first time we sat down together to record this podcast. Wow. What a five years it has been.

Only good things have happened. Best five years of my life. So much has happened. I remember recording it and being like, well, we can't release that. We've got to record at least 10 more before we can ever release any of this. And Sammy was like, no, I'm releasing it.

I was like, that's how it works. She did. You can just do that? We did. You can do that. It was worth it it was definitely worth the best five years of my life cheers to my friends if you can see this yes there's my drink yeah i was uh i was a little running a little behind because i had to make the

puritan our chosen cocktail for this evening and it's pretty gnarly oh really i love mine you don't like yours oh maybe, maybe I did the proportions incorrectly. Can you remind us the ingredients? It's not that I don't like it. I will remind you of the ingredients. Well, and I should say Joel made this, so maybe credit to Joel. Mine is lovely. Maybe I can get him to go over there and make you one.

Okay, it's one and two-thirds ounces of London dry gin, half an ounce of dry vermouth, third of an ounce yellow chartreuseuse and a dash of orange bitters. Sammy, is that what you did? That's what I did. Yes. But I don't have London dry gin. I used terroir.

Terroir. Maybe that's. That might not because it's a little bit like kind of sweet. It's sort of vespary because of the chartreuse. If you did maybe a little too of a too of an earthy gin could be throwing it off. I think that's I think that's exactly the problem. We used Plymouth. Wow.

Wow. I did go to the liquor store earlier today to get ingredients for this, and apparently they stopped manufacturing small bottles of chartreuse because the liquor store used to carry those. So I just shelled out $80. We looked it up when we got there. I looked it up. I was like, well, surely this is just an overpriced liquor store used to carry those. So I just shelled out $80. We looked it up when we got there. I looked up. I was like, well, surely this is just an overpriced liquor store.

And then I was like, no, that is what it costs. So hey, to everybody who made this cocktail, really sorry about that one. But I will say yellow chartreuse is good. I don't even know what that is. I'm going to have to look up more recipes with it. But it's a big bottle. It's a big bottle.

Because I've got a lot of it. And as we said, this only took one third of an ounce. And you hate it. It'll last a long time. And you hate the drink. Well, I'm drinking a watered down mezcal soda. Gorgeous. With half a lemon in it.

Love it. And all the ice has melted by now. Cheers. Great. Cheers. Cheers. I miss you guys. I love you. And I wish that I was still with you. And I wish that we were in person together so badly. We were. We did get to see each other in person this past week. What a freaking treat. Too much of a good thing. It was too much of a good thing. It's too much. And you know what they say, you can have too much of a good thing. It was too much of a good thing. It was too much. And you know what they say.

You can have too much of a good thing. That's what they say. And then the universe will come back and just bite you. They know. It did bite you. It did bite you a little bit. But we'll talk about that in a little bit. We'll talk about that in a little bit.

Just a quick Hellchella update. Merch is coming. It's coming. We were hoping to have merch by this show it unfortunately the shipping

didn't happen fast enough it was the shipping it wasn't me it was thank you Sammy it was the shipping it's

I feel like it was the shipping I thought it would be faster okay I did also think it'd be faster than that but I also could have designed it faster but it's fine because we're gonna have it soon

but it is coming it is on our way on its way to us to qc the product before we launch the site we wouldn't tell you something we hadn't qc'd we wouldn't dare we would never so uh we will be posting about that on social media and stuff this week so stay tuned for that and in two weeks from today at the time of this recording on july 28th we have another live show on our patreon for long legs which i saw last night and i can't wait to tell you guys about oh my god um all i will say is nicholas Cage is just a gift that keeps on giving. And I just feel so lucky to live in the same universe as him.

And then, yeah, I guess just a recap of Halchella. You guys watching probably all know this, but all episodes for June, July, and August are new releases and will all be available as video episodes on our Patreon at patreon.com slash TSDW podcast. But I just can't wait to get into this week's movie. So let's not spend a second longer talking about any of that stuff. No, no, let's not. Let's say what it is. Let's say what it is, because everybody needs to know that this week's movie is Maxine.

is Maxine. Woo! Woo! Maxine, the third movie in Ty West's horror trilogy that started with X and continued with Pearl.

Now we have Maxine. It came out just last week on July 5th, 2024. That's Pearl right there on Sammy's shirt. You've seen her.

You know her. You love her. Maxine was written and directed by Ty West. Stars Mia Goth, Elizabeth Debicki, Moses Subney, Michelle Monaghan, Bobby Cannavale, Halsey, Lily Collins, Giancarlo Esposito, and Kevin Bacon. It is currently in theaters. What a cast.

A freaking cast. What a cast. And look, we got a guest here to join us for this. Could not do it without her. You all have been demanding that she come back and

we couldn't agree more. So thrilled. Welcome back. Horror respondent, Betsy Sedaro. Woo! Woo! The crowd goes wild. The crowd goes wild. The crowd goes wild. Betsy!

Betsy! Betsy! Betsy! Betsy! Betsy! Betsy! Betsy! Betsy!

Betsy! Betsy! Just like in the movie. Yep. This is all for you, all these people. All these people. Thanks for having me. Congrats.

Five years. Isn't that nuts? It really is. That's crazy. And it really is a really nuts exact five years. It's really, it's really, really wild. It's really wild. It's too crazy.

Five years. Went by. Five years. So fast. Went by so fast. Yeah. Went by so fast. It feels nuts.

To celebrate five years, Sammy and I did a little thing this week. Oh. Which is that we got TACW tattoos. They're so cool. Wait, wait, what? They're so cool. They're very cool. We'll have to post them more.

I feel like, yeah, you can't really see. But it's three little Midsummer girlies. Three little May Queens because that's us. And Midsummer was our first episode. And someday we'll peer pressure Henley into also getting one. I'm going to get one. Henley, you got to. And you got to get way bigger on your back.

Yeah, full back. Yeah, it'll be my full back. Yes. This big. Yes. Ben Affleck style. I just don't have any tattoos. So also you guys decide to get it when I was going to be at the beach all week. I can't get a tattoo and go to the beach. It is

summer is a trickier time. But also Henley, you don't live here. We planned to get it when you were here. I know that's true. You chose to spend that time at the beach. I dare you go to the beach and not get a tattoo. Really crazy. I did show literally everyone in Tim's family. I walked around

and there were like 35 people and I was like, look at this, look at this. I'm going to get this. What do you guys think? What do you think? Where should I put it? Where should I put it?

So I've got a lot of different ideas. It's very cool. I'm a big fan of it. It's very cool. I'm a big fan of it. It's very cool. I'm a big fan of it. You can't really see it very well on this video.

I know. They're really little cuties. We'll post pictures. A better photo. That rules. But getting a tattoo is kind of a scary thing. It's kind of a scary thing.

It's been a while since... Did it hurt? Not really. No, it didn't hurt, but it probably helps. I'm in the process of having a tattoo removed as well, which hurts a lot.

It's a commitment. Compared to that, it didn't. May I ask, and feel free to be like, I don't want to tell you, what's the tattoo that you're getting removed? Oh, look how almost gone it is. It's really almost gone. It's this spoon here. It was a Matrix tattoo. It was a bendy spoon, but it was just a real spur of the moment ten dollar

tattoo at like a bar it was like a pop-up like a pop-up tattoo thing and okay we really did those for a stretch of time and some of them i like this one is that too and i have some mountain range yeah yeah so sometimes it works out and sometimes it doesn't you know what can you do yeah yeah but it's good to think about tattoos beforehand, Henley, because they are permanent and it does cost a lot more and hurt a lot more and take a lot longer to get them removed. So I support you taking your time. This one you have to get. Once you get it, though, you're going to be like, I want more.

No, I agree. I agree. I think you get kind of like addicted to it a little bit. Yeah. This was also this was the fastest kind of like addicted to it a little bit. Yeah. This was also, this was the fastest back-to-back I've ever gotten two tattoos. So I got one like a month ago, a month and a half ago, I got another one. And it, yeah, it does make you want more. And also I'm in this zone of like, I'm about to, we're getting married in a couple months.

And so I'm like, I want to get as many in before that, before all the pictures. Like I want to have as many of the ones that I want before that. You'll look so cool. I'll look so cool. Also, Emily, where you got it is cool. I never would have thought that's a cool spot. I like it right there. Yeah. Thank you. Well, I'm also, it's a place where I'm like trying to now

I have to think about the canvas. Right. Because I got them all over the place now. Right. But I want to fill all the little spaces with like little tiny guys now. Now is where you just sort of pepper them in. Yes place now. Right, right. But I want to fill all the little spaces with like little tiny guys now. Now is where you just sort of pepper them in. Tiny guys. Love it. I think my parents are watching and my mom's probably upset.

Sorry, mom. Does she know you have tattoos? What if she did? What if I was like, shit! Didn't even think about that. No, she does. Erase it. Erase it all.

She knows. She knows. She knows. Betsy, do you have any tattoos does she i do i have three on my legs okay and i just got one in barcelona oh that's a cool place to get a tattoo a fun flash one that is a i'm looking at right now like a dead frog it's so good in a thong with butt cheek hell yeah i think i should try. I don't know how to show everybody. We have to find a way.

It's so good. It's coming. It's coming. I love it. That's the best tattoo reveal I've ever seen. It's so good. Holy shit. I love it. You posted a photo of it on your stories

Betsy and I immediately screenshotted it I was just like well I need this for my records be able to reference this whenever I want it was a flash it was just I can't believe that because it feels custom made for you I know isn't that wild I saw it my first day there. And I had been like, I want to get a tattoo in Ireland or Barcelona or both. We'll see. And I saw it my first day there. And I couldn't stop thinking about it. And then the last day, I was like, I got to go get it. Amazing.

I got to get it. And I pointed it out to the people working there. And they all just laughed. And they're like, really? And I was like, yeah. That joke one that we did as a total joke? You guys made it. Yeah.

What do you mean, really? joke yeah i mean really come on yeah if i really want the dead frog in the song i really want that frog it's so silly it's so good i love it my husband tim has a tattoo in the same location of a smiley face that he got in thailand and when i first when i first saw that i was like, I don't know. I guess it's okay. Smiley face. He has a ton of tattoos though. So I feel like it's like when you have a bunch, you know. Yeah, they all start meaning a little bit less individually,

which is kind of fun. Except for this one, which means so much. Yes, yes. Happy anniversary. Happy anniversary. Wow. Happy anniversary. Wow. Wow. I'm so happy to be spending it with you oh my god betsy we've missed you i've missed you i've missed you so much yeah

thank you for coming out it's so good thank you for having me seriously you guys i needed this real bad let's see we needed it Well, did anything other than the tattoos, did anything scary happen to any of us this week? Okay. Well, I should just quickly tell my travel saga story. Get it over with real quick, you guys. Rip this bandaid off. So I was in California with Tim and Silas and May. And we were supposed to fly back on Friday. So, you know, we get up, we get up early in the morning on Friday. I get, you know, an eight month old baby and a just turned three year old ready to go to the airport. We drive an hour to the airport. We go, we get in our seats. We like wait. It gets delayed. And they say it's going to be at least

an hour until we find out how long the flight will be delayed. And so then we wait another hour. And then they're like, it's canceled. The flight's not happening. No more flights for the rest of the day. So then we all pile back into the car and go back to Long Beach where we were staying. So then we had a whole other night in Long Beach, wake up the next morning, do it all over again. This was LAX, by the way?

LAX. The worst place in the whole country. I hate LAX so much. Really bad place. And also when we got there, the United Terminal was fucking crazy. The United Terminal is the worst one in general, no matter what. We walked in and I was like, what's this line for?

What is this line for? And the line went all the way around, like, to the end of the terminal. Like, all the way down. And it was for the bag drop. Obviously, we have a shit ton of bags. We have two car seats. We have two bags. We have, like, so much shit.

We have a stroller. And Silas is like, ah, because there's so many people everywhere. And May is just like, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Like she's having a good time. And so we wait forever. I'm like stressed about missing our flight. Long story short, we finally check everything, but it's very haphazard. At one point, someone pulls us out of the line because they're like, when's your flight? And we tell them and he's like, okay, you got to come with me. So we like follow him. So we like put one bag, one place. And then he brings us to another location to put our other bags. And anyway,

it's very haphazard. And then at the gate, they're like, we don't have seats yet. Oh my God. We're the very last people to board the plane because they had to like find us seats on the plane. A family with an eight month old and a three year old. They made you last. Yeah. We were completely, it's fine. It's fine. Who cares about that? It's not mine! So then we're in the way back of the plane, like very last seats.

This flight was very stressful because I think Silas and May were just super tired and like both of them freaked out a bunch about various things. So then we land and they lost one of our car seats and one of our backs. Of course, they told you to put them in different spots. How did you get back without a car, like one of your car seats? They keep car seats there. The lady went in the back and she found another car seat. Makes sense. Well, that's what your car seat is going to become. Yeah. Yours is the next airport car seat. Somebody's using yours right now in Arizona.

I know. You know what? It's okay. We're all fine. Everyone's fine. Then we got in the car to come home. It's like 9.30 at night. Sass and May are losing their shit. The Uber driver is like, where are you going?

We were like, Connecticut. He was like, Connecticut? No, I'm not going there. He was like, you have to pay me directly. So we had to cancel the Uber and then pay him directly to bring us to Connecticut. Surely illegal. And then Mae's screaming her head off. He has no gas and he can't find a gas station. I've had to get gas with an Uber before once and it was a little freaky. No, that's not right. It's like 10pm at night where Tim is trying to find

a gas station. Wait, it was also in Connecticut. It was my Uber to the airport from your house in Connecticut. He was like, do you care if I stop for gas? And pulled off the freeway. It's the same dude. I guess. That is truly scary. I would be like, I don't trust what you're going to do.

You just pulled me off the road. Yeah. Anyway, so we got home and it was all fine. May did cry really hard. She just started crying and didn't stop. Like she hit a point. You can actually hear her right now.

She's crying right now, right behind me. So hopefully, hopefully you guys can't hear that. But Tim's trying to put her to bed. She's in the fireplace. She's right there. She's right over there in the fireplace crying. It's perfect for a baby. Oh, man. Anyway, so that was last night. And then this morning, Tim had to wake up and go to work. Because he's a priest and Sundays are big. Yeah, it's a really big day.

Sunday is kind of the day and Spence has and I spent several hours in the sprinkler. Finding out your priest has a smiley face tattoo on his upper thigh. I know he had a lot of weird tattoos. He has a weirder tattoo than that. Then I may be like, I'll go to church.

I guess I'll go. He's a cool priest, but I'm pretty sure he's still not that cool. But Sass and I then spent several hours outside in the sprinkler. So my hair is just like wet from a sprinkler because I just ran back and forth through that sprinkler. I mean, that's the best when you're a kid. Oh, my God. Honestly, it sounds fun right now. I was going to say, if I had good sprinklers, I would do that.

I'm literally already dripping sweat from turning my AC off for this 20 minutes. I'm so sweaty. Same. It sounds really good. Yeah. I feel better. Honestly, it was invigorating. Like, I was like, we should, as adults, we should all be doing this.

We should be running through sprinklers. You're, like, literally, like, cleansing, you know? That is, like, we need to do that. We need to do that. should be running through sprinklers. You're like literally like cleansing yourself. You know? That is like, we need to do that. We need to do that. And like in full clothes, like your normal clothes. You're not even abating. You're just in your clothes. That's not the point. Just run through a sprinkler.

You'll feel better. That sounds fun. I really do. And I feel better because I get to hear about this movie. Oh. We'll see about that. And I feel better because I get to hear about this movie. Oh. Yes. We'll see about that. No, it rules. Betsy, did anything scary happen to you this week? Oh.

You know when you start feeling sick? Oh, no. Yeah. I was going to ask. I was like, Bets, do you have a cold? Yeah. Yeah. It started started Thursday.

I had a really great morning and early afternoon. Went on a big hike. Was feeling really good. Had a work thing in the evening that went really well. And then truly, as soon as I turned the Zoom off for that, I was like, oh no, I think i have a fever oh you know it was one of those or just like oh and i'm a little achy oh no so i've been just slowly trying to fight them oh i'm feeling okay it hasn't gotten worse it's only been like that so we're doing

all right but that's always scary That is scary. Sammy just got so sick. I was just sick as well. And it's crazy how our brains have changed about being sick. Like, I just don't trust whatever it is. It's like, I like I went to urgent care, got tested for COVID, strep throat mono. They're like, it's none of those things. And I'm like, well, it's probably some new thing that's gonna kill me. Yeah, like, there's no other mono, they're like, it's none of those things. And I'm like, well, it's probably some new thing that's going to kill me. Yeah. Like, surely there's no other way to just have, like, germs and be a little sick. I mean, you were very sick.

The cold is gone now. Having just a cold or, like, just being like, I'm run down. It's like, no way. This is it. I'm patient zero. Yes. Here we go. Yep.

Ugh. Yeah, we're not well. Oh, Betsy, I'm sorry. Are you going to be able to rest tomorrow? Do you have some time? I've been resting. Thank you. This is so nice.

I've been resting a bunch this weekend. I have to work tomorrow and Tuesday. I'm shooting something. So I've been laying very low. Great. Okay. Yeah, we'll be all right. We'll be all right. We're not going to push you tonight great okay yeah we'll be we'll be all right we'll be

all right we're not we're not gonna push you tonight yeah we'll take it real easy and last live show we did henley had a temperature of 102 so the audience is used to one sick person kind of making their way i didn't know that at the time i was like i'm not feeling great and then know that at the time. I was like, I'm not feeling great. And then I took my temperature afterwards and I was like, that is why. That's why. I have a fever. What was the movie? Who can say? Honestly, you might've enjoyed it a little more with a fever. Just be like, what? Yeah. Yeah. That's fair. What about you guys? Oh, this is getting tattooed. Is that your scary

thing? What's your scary thing? No, Emily's had one that I've been dying to hear an update on. I know. I did have, I had a whole saga happen and I'll condense it. But I didn't tell you about it in real life, my friends, that it was happening when I saw, I've seen all of you since this was happening. And I was like, don't tell them. Don't tell them.

Don't tell them. Save it for the pod. What? this was happening and i was like don't tell them don't tell them don't tell them save it for the pod what joel and i had a real and even that's we we watched this movie with you last week and i before you got there i was like joel don't bring this up don't tell but you can't tell anybody about the thing that's how i talked to him um so fourth of july fourth of july comes got a day off of work we're sitting in the house it's a nice day outside i got this uh the main So, 4th of July. 4th of July comes. Got a day off of work.

We're sitting in the house. It's a nice day outside. We got the main door open, just the screen door breeze coming in. I'm sitting at my desk sewing a set of overalls for Silas. Beautiful overalls, by the way. They're really good. All day, we're hanging out inside, getting ready to go meet our friends. And we're both like, man, it smells skunky outside.

And I'm thinking there are skunks around here. And I was like, Oh, probably there's like a skunk got scared from people are setting off fireworks all over the place. So probably like a skunk got startled skunk somebody, but it's like, you don't usually smell skunk during the day. We're like,

all right, weird. It smells like skunk. Leave our house to go see our friends for the 4th of July. And we're in a back house with a little patio. And so we have a little wooden gate. And as I go to open the gate to go down the driveway, I open it.

And in opening it, turn my vision to a corner where there is truly a cartoonishly dead skunk. I swear to God, this thing is in the corner on its back hands up mouth open like just like so oh no and i freaked out because i'm like horrified simultaneously this thing is dead also that like i've been smelling dead skunk all day and also just the idea that like probably what happened is it like okay so a longer story that we'll get into later on another scary thing in another week is that the people who live in the house in front of us are selling it so we're not really sure what's

going to happen with our living situation but in getting ready to sell it they put rat poison out outside where the animals live outside where animals are which feels completely insane i'm not an exterminator but i feel like that's not where you should put it so this skunk ate rat poison and died which is so sad and i was like oh he like skunked because he probably was dying and like got scared and it like makes me so sad sorry i shouldn't but so we're like okay fuck there's a dead skunk there but like we're like on our way out it's a national holiday i like don't have the bandwidth to like we're like we'll let our management company know and like we i don't know we got it just like so we leave traumatized but we leave let our management company know hey

there's a dead skunk in our yard cool fifth of july comes around waiting to hear back from the management company thinking surely they'll come today yesterday was a holiday but surely today they'll come but we had plans to go see maxine you know busy day so can't deal with the dad's gunk also like joel kept being like should i move it and i was like what should you touch the dead put it with move it wait like for you there isn't really anywhere to do with it now i know you call 311 animal control will come within 24 hours. So that's what you do.

Long story short. Yeah. Yeah. But I'm going to tell the long story long. Again, Friday, we don't really do anything with it because we're waiting for a management company to like send somebody. So Friday night comes around. Skunk has not.

They have not done anything about it, but something has come to it and something has no had some snacks snacks how dare you use that word sorry something has had a little it's it's moved joel put a trash bag over it and the and it's all moved all of it has moved and mind you it is so hot outside it's so hot outside when this is happening and it smells like skunk outside and it's just getting grosser and grosser and in retrospect absolutely we we there's other things we should have done but it just was like it was we were in panic you're paralyzed you're paralyzed we were paralyzed with fear so then saturday morning joel is like what the fuck why hasn't the management company gone back to me he follows up with them and and they

get right back to him. They say, oh, can you take a picture for us? What? Is it still there? Take a picture. So Joel's like, all right, I'm going to go out and take a picture of this fucking dead skunk. He goes outside and it's gone. There are remnants, but the skunk is gone.

What? What do you think ate it? So we're like. Coyote? Okay. Well, hope a bigger thing doesn't die from rat poison inside the skunk i don't really know how that works but skunk's gone i guess so okay well great what i hope it wasn't like someone's dog or something

well we also it's our art areas like gate it like i don't really know what could have come i mean sure i'm sure a coyote could have, but that's never happened. I don't know. But whatever. Do you think it was management and then they were like, uh, take a picture?

Why don't you take a picture? Do you think we didn't do anything with her? Yeah, I guess so. Go show me the skunk, actually. Do you think we didn't do anything with her? Oh, it's gone? Is it gone? Whoa.

They're like, my job is so boring. I gotta spice it up somehow. Yeah. I wish I could say the story ends there because then Oh boy. Saturday night I spend the night with you two. We go to We Spa. We go to Taylor's Steakhouse.

We spend a lovely night at the Line Hotel. We're having a great old time. Sunday morning, you're getting ready to drop me back off at my place. I get a text from Joel. The skunk's back. What? No. Dead skunk's back? Took it away. Ate some of it.

Brought it back. Brought it back. Brought it back. This time, I barely got a look. I barely got a look. I unfortunately did glance out of the corner of my eye. It's not good. It's not good. It's not good. It's not good. It's not good. What? So now we have a three-day-old, partially eaten, sitting in heat, horrifying skunk corpse on our patio.

Is it in the same spot? Nearby. Near. Near. Near the same spot. Near the same spot. And you know what else is around now? Fur.

Everywhere. Not on the skunk. Everywhere else. Forks and knives. No. Forks and knives. Forks and knives. No. Forks and knives. Handkerchief. Little used napkins. Salt and pepper. Tiny little wine glasses.

What? And so Joel finally calls the animal control and they say, we will be there within 24 hours. Can you move it out to the curb? And Joel, angel that he is, says yes. And immediately he's's like why the fuck did i say yes i was like i don't know say no cancel tell them you're not gonna move it joel gets ready

to move this fucking decayed skunk corpse and he texts our neighbor in the front house to ask him if they have a shovel so that he can find any way to not have to touch it yeah and they recognizing that thankfully that this was their fault because they put rat poison outside. And I think that her boyfriend is an exterminator. They were like, we'll deal with it. Wait, that's so funny. Her boyfriend's an exterminator this whole time. So they deal with the skunk, but they put it outside.

And they put it outside and put it in a trash bag on the curb, like under a brick. And then it sits there for like 24 more hours. I'm so aware of this skunk. Ew. It still smells a little bit like skunk out there. I'm still, it's like I, it's like I'm haunted by the memories of skunk. Every time I come and go,

Joel had to like sweep up the fucking skunk fur from outside. Like Joel was more traumatized than me. He had to deal with it so much more than I did. But this was like a four or five day situation and now i really i'm like we were so sad to have to move out of this place maybe and now we're sort of like i think this is now the place where the skunk died and i need to be somewhere else yeah the ultimate sign of like maybe it's a secret blessing when there's a smell like that it it stays even when it's gone like the memory of it persists in a way that's hard to get rid of.

Yeah. We had a neighbor's dog kill a skunk one night right outside of like my bedroom window and Mano's bedroom window. And it was like a month of smelling like, like I would go to shows and be like, do I smell? And people would be like, i smell and people be like yep you still stink like skunk and i was like oh my god i'm sorry everyone yeah it sucks it's so bad it was bad you guys it was really bad i'm really sorry does tomato juice work is that a real thing what are you gonna do but it's like yeah i'm like you going to do? Put it everywhere? I think that's a real thing, but it's like, yeah. I'm like, where do you put it?

Put it everywhere. You do that if like your pet gets sprayed. Yeah. Like if you, you know. I don't know, man. Tomato candle. Oh, I should get the tomato candle. I know, but you guys don't like how it smells.

I do. Henley, I bought myself one. I like it better than skunk. I thought you didn't. Wait, how does a tomato candle smell? Oh, I maybe didn't like the way yours smelled, but remember I got you a different one. A different brand of tomato candle that I did like. It's like, have you ever smelled, Betsy, have you ever smelled a tomato plant?

No, I don't think I have. A leaf smells so strong and so beautiful. Like chef's kiss. And they've managed to put it into a candle. My God. They figured it out. They fucking did it. They're nailing it.

They're like, hey, you want a spooky library candle? You got it. I love that. Everybody in the office throwing their papers in the air. We figured it out. Finally. Yeah, Tamino products. They're on the up and up god i love a tomato product well we're 33 minutes in and it's still my scary thing i think we can skip it mine can be the tattoo because i want to let's get into this movie emily let's hear some some trivia well fortunately for

the sake of time i there's like no trivia none i there's a little bit of trivia on imdb and it was none of it was interesting it was like the kind of trivia where someone had to do trivia for a homework assignment they would like find those things to say but it was like this isn't trivia you're just like trying you're grasping at straws it's like the the car is like a ford a 1973 honestly i would have loved that there was no trivia about the kinds of cars And there were cars in this movie So honestly pretty pissed I can say that this movie does have a 72% On Rotten Tomatoes

A 64% on Metacritic And a 6.8% on IMDb So close to a 6.9% So close It would have been so good Okay we all gotta hop on IMDb Everybody get that up a.1% Come on I couldn't find any budget information Okay, we all gotta hop on IMDb and get it to that 6.9.

Come on. I couldn't find any budget information, but it is at a box office of 7.9 million, which without the budget is meaningless. Yeah. But I do think it did not do as well as they hoped. I was gonna say, I think that that sounds... Yeah, not as high as we would have liked. Low to me.

Yeah, not a hugely successful opening weekend. And did it open alongside anything? Or was it just the holiday weekend? I'm not sure why this one didn't... Maybe the holiday. Do as hot. I don't know. I'm surprised.

Yeah. X, the budget was $1 million. Box office, $15 million. So, I mean, that's over its whole run. This one I did see had the highest budget of the three, which makes sense. I feel like even above the line, like you've got Kevin Bacon, you've got Bobby

Cannavale, you've got like, we're up there. But yeah, I mean, we'll get into it. Okay, okay. Also, I mean, this one they clearly did shoot in LA versus like Middle of Nowhere, which is where they did X and Pearl. Which is so nice. I love something shoot in LA versus like middle of nowhere which is where they did X and Pearl I love something set in LA

I really do it's so fun especially with now everything not being shot in LA it's like yeah let's shoot in LA you guys this was so deeply LA because it was shot like in Hollywood and on an actual studio lot but like the studio lot as the set which was really really fun it was so in Hollywood and on an actual studio lot, but the studio lot as the set, which was really, really fun.

It was so good. Which studio lot? Do you know? Is that part of the trivia? I think it was Universal. Universal, yeah, because it's where the Western town is. That's fun. Psycho house.

Yeah, it definitely made me be like, I got to go on that tram ride. Me too. The tram ride's fun. I've been on the tram ride. I love the tram ride. I love the tram ride. I love the tram ride. Visiting the studios, so fun. I love Universal Studios.

I went two weeks in a row a couple of weeks ago. Really? That's recent. I have a season pass and we treat it like a bar. Yeah. One of my favorite times was I went to Universal by myself and Betsy, I think it was before I met up with you guys to see The Conjuring 3. Devil Made Me Do It.

And I just went to Universal before by myself. Got a Duff beer. Rode the Harry Potter ride. And went on a ride. Yep. Just for like two hours. It was great. We need to get back into that.

We need to do that again. I've got to pass. I've got to pass. Let me know anytime. Wait, okay, let's go. Okay, I'll go. I need an excuse to renew mine, so here we go. Well, now you got it.

There it is. Now you got it. Now I have it. Did I tell you guys about how my last Netflix holiday party, they shut down Harry Potter World? Yes. Yes. I was so jealous.

Can you believe that? That's crazy. And it wasn't even for Netflix. It was for like my team. It was like 60 people. I was like, what the fuck? That's so crazy. That's so cool.

That's crazy. That's more people than will be at my wedding and also i hated everyone so i was like i can't even enjoy this yeah it's like i'm at harry potter world alone this is weird a little spooky it was very spooky spooky oh my god okay so is wait is that all the trivia that's it that's all i don't have any other trivia i will say that the one thing that i looked up in the aftermath um there's there's been this article going around about kevin bacon who's in this movie who went out into the i think he went to like the grove he went to a mall in la in um like he'd had the uh prosthetics person from maxine do him up to look not like Kevin Bacon so he could like go out to

the grove and just like be a guy and um he's quoted just being like it sucked nobody like was moved out of the way for me nobody told me they love me I had to stand in line for a coffee I hated it I want to be famous this is the worst wait is that really funny I love it i love it so much like if you've spent your whole life being famous and all of a sudden you have to go to the grove and be around people who just are like trying to do their fucking shopping it would suck it's really funny i guess do famous people not wait in line for coffee i guess kevin bacon doesn't wait in line for coffee that's just like how do you get your coffee someone brings it to you probably somebody gets it for you i think he was being a little bit funny but i think even if kevin bacon does

wait in line for coffee people are really nice to him he's probably not going to the grove for coffee usually i think it's also just he was like nobody like cared that i was there you know like i think if you're just used to people that's what i like the most about being famous it's like don't pay attention to me i'm just just, don't look at me. I know, but like you want them to purposefully not pay attention to you, not care who you are. Got it, got it. Right, right. You know, it's like, you still want it on your terms.

That's so funny. And Kevin Bacon's been famous for a long ass time, you know? He's been famous for so long. That people didn't know who he was. Like, it's probably been a really long time. I also loved him in this movie. I thought he was... He's having such a good time. It's contagious.

It's absolutely contagious. You can't help but enjoy it. I loved this movie also just because I was proud of myself for seeing it. Yeah, we should say we all three saw it together and I sat next to Emily. She did a great job. Thank you so much.

Good job, Emily. I only looked away a few times, so I cannot be in charge of this recap. But I did watch, I watched the movie. So brave. So impressive. So good, so brave. There was one point where Mano was like, why did Emily come?

Yeah, I think Mano was more concerned than me. Yeah, the first thing he said when I saw him was, why are Emily come? Yeah, I think Mata was more concerned than me. The first thing he said when I saw him was, why are you here? I was like, yep, yep. Hi. He was so worried for you at some parts. No, Emily's brave now. Emily is brave now.

Emily wants to see Alien Romulus, which I think is going to be the scariest movie of the year. That one I'll be very scared for. I am so stoked for that one. I'm really excited, but I feel like you might not actually. Yeah, I'll be very scared for. I'm really excited, but I feel like you might not actually... Yeah, I might not have a good time.

Might not have a good time. But you will have a time. Yeah, yeah. But I would love to go with you if you do want to go. Alright. Yes, dude. It looks so cool. It looks so good. I can't wait. I'm so stoked. I'm so stoked for it.

Let's watch the freaking trailer for this movie. Yeah, let's watch the trailer. Here it comes. I'm so stoked. I'm so stoked for it. Let's watch the freaking trailer for this movie. Yeah, let's watch the trailer. Here it comes. I'm going to text Tim and say, Bring me another drink? Yeah, bring me another drink. And also, oh no. He said he can't find any of May's pacifiers.

That's why she's been crying so much. Oh, I did hear her a little bit. You just take the top off a bottle and just call it that? Oh, yeah. I'm basically a parent, right? Is that what you can do? Yeah, why don't you just do that? I thought for a second you meant a bottle of liquor.

Yeah, just take the top off it, pop it right in there. Yeah, man, that'll knock her out, right? Get right in there. All right, here we go. Everybody ready? Oh, I'm so ready. So, Maxine, your agent tells us you're quite a popular name in adult film and entertainment. Is that correct?

I'm curious. Did you always want to be in that line of work? I always wanted to be famous. If you need to read off the sides we gave you, just go ahead, all right? I know the lines. She turns to the camera and, through her trauma, addresses the lens directly. Name five celebrities who got their start in horror movies.

Amy Lee Curtis, John Travolta, Demi Moore, Brooke Shields, and... Maxine fucking Mance. Well. I don't like walking out here with that frickin' Night Stalker guy in the loose. The Night Stalker. Night Stalker. Night Stalker is terrorizing Los Angeles. I can handle myself.

So said every bad girl in Hollywood. Maxine. I'm the private detective. I defied you. Maxine, I'm the private detective. How do I find you? My employer is a very powerful man. The past ain't finished with you. It's gonna keep knocking at your door. Tragically, another victim of the Night Stalker.

I knew three people who were murdered in three days. I'd be pretty scared. What are you hiding, Maxine? If I tell you something, we've got confidentiality. What'd you do? This is the defining moment of your career. Why is this going on in your life that's interfering with this picture? Squash it. I intend to.

Maxine! Maxine! Maxine! Maxine! You're a fucking movie star. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, I want to see that. I don't think it's too scary i think it's really not there's fun it's so fun i'd say it's it's there's a few gory moments but it's mostly just fun

i looked away at a couple of uh yeah some some violent moments there's some blood there's some blood for sure. But it isn't, it's not like jump scary. It's not, like I was in it the rest of the time and I knew when I needed to look away. And there was one moment that I was like, it's dark, where is she going? What's happening? But like in a fun way.

Do you feel like Mia Goth was like connecting with it because she's become famous through horror movies? Do you know what I mean? I actually just listen to a interview with ty west where it was on big picture sean fantasy asked him that question like is there a conversation between you and mia goth where you're like this is kind of weird that like you're getting more recognition and the whole world knows your name and ty west was like no we don't talk about that

be so weird to have that conversation wait but it's not like so obvious or no sure but like i feel like them having that conversation would be a little bit like isn't it crazy you're getting famous for my movie yeah yeah like he was like maybe we'll have that conversation in 10 years like looking back but it seems a little like full of ourselves to have that conversation now which i feel like makes sense but yeah there's definitely parallels for both of their careers i mean ty west as well has been making movies and hasn't really had a hit until this one i mean we've we've covered his movies in the past i don't mean that disparagingly i just mean this is definitely like the most commercially successful. Yeah.

Yeah. She is just, she's such a fucking star. So good. She's a fucking movie star. She is so good, dude. She's so good. Just her walking is like, God, you're just even good at walking cool, man.

Like, you just can't, you can't look away from her. It's the thing. It's like, yes, she's giving a good performance. Yes, she's being a good actor. But that to me is the thing.

The X Factor, the undeniable quality is just like when they're on screen, there's nothing else that you can look at. And she has that so much. She's so fucking cool. Oh, she's so rad. Also, every single person makes cigarette smoking look awesome. I feel like smoking is back. It looks cool again. It looks really

cool. I'm not gonna do it. It sounds cool. No, I'm not gonna do it. It's really bad but it looks really cool. Betsy's a little bit sick right now. Betsy, you better not. You better not. I've never smoked a cigarette. I will not smoke a cigarette, but it looks so bad.

It looks cool. You guys, Pinky promised we're never going to smoke cigarettes. Pinky promised right now. Henley? Pinky. I've definitely smoked cigarettes, but I won't anymore. We're not going to. We're not going to.

Never again. You guys, cigarettes are so bad, but they look so cool. But here's the thing is, they are actually so bad. No, no, no. They'll kill you. They'll for sure kill you. They're actually so bad. But people are doing it again, and it looks cool. You gotta get candy cigarettes.

In the movie when they light it, it's just like the coolest sound. And I had this, too. There's a moment where she's like really stressed because, you know, bad stuff's happening. And she like lights a cigarette to calm herself. And I was like, man, yeah.

You know, like that seems nice, but I won't do it because it's really, really bad. And cause you made a pinky promise. And I made a pinky promise to my friends. Most importantly, I made a pinky promise to my friends,

but I think I need to help Tim. It's a live show. Anything can happen. Anything can happen, babe. Anything can happen, babe. I'm so sorry. I'll be right back. We'll see you when we see you. You do what you gotta do. You do what you gotta do, babe. We'll stare at that empty screen as much

as we need. We'll just wait in silence. Oh, yeah. I hope the listeners are okay with us just sitting in silence. But like, did you see those? I mean, I'm sure you did. Those pictures of Paul Mezcal and Natalie Portman smoking cigarettes. And I was like, these fucking guys?

I saw that. I was like, they're smoking cigarettes. Maybe I should start smoking. Fuck. It just looked cool. And looking awesome. And they look like healthier than I'll ever look. And they're pounding cigarettes.

They're like, what's going on? Physical condition at the top of their game. He's fucking filming Gladiator smoking cigarettes. Are you fucking kidding me? Are you joking my ass right now? Are you joking my ass right now? The thing about Mia Goth that I forget about is that she's also British.

Yeah, I forget that every time. And she talks like this in real life yeah she's got like a high little british accent and it's like she talks like maxine minx has like a deep there's southern it's like what the fuck there's a moment in the movie where the director says is that is that your real accent and she's like yeah and I really want her to be like, no, actually, I speak like this. Actually, I sound like a little fairy. Now that you ask, it's actually quite like this. Also, Elizabeth Debicki is Australian.

I thought she was British. I learned all sorts of things. Interesting. I thought she was British as well. I thought she was British for sure. She's incredible, too. She's incredible. was British for sure. She's incredible too. She's incredible. She's so tall. So tall. Did you guys know that?

Did you know how tall she is? She's really tall. How tall is she? I think she's over six feet tall. Over six feet, yeah. Nice! Yeah. Whoa. Now imagine if you saw her smoking a cigarette. She's six foot three. And she does smoke cigarettes, I think. I think she's smoking in the movie too and it's just like,

man, maybe if I smoke cigarettes I'll get really tall. Yeah, I think you'll get tall and healthy. Six foot three, she can dunk.

I think that's the secret to gladiator fitness, to black swan fitness, to basketball dunking is to smoke. And I think good acting, how to act good.

Cigarettes and good acting and fame. And fame. But we pinky promised and so darn it we can't dang it we can't do any of that darn darn darn all right you guys just a cool 50 minutes into the episode what say you we start this recap let's do it.

After you place your order, select podcast in the survey and select too scary. Didn't watch in the drop down menu that follows. OK, so we start off with this spooky, like old timey video, but that's probably on one of the reels, you know, super eight or like a projector.

Yeah, the one that goes Projector of a little girl. Oh, no. A little girl who's like dancing on a like Jesus stage. It says like, Jesus will save you kind of stage. And then we hear a creepy dude being like, yep, that's my. Are you dancing for Jesus or something like that? Like you're going to be a star of the church, Maxie. Or I don't think they ever say Maxie.

But we've seen in X, that was like a reveal in X that she is, Maxine is the daughter of like an evangelical priest. Yes. Because at like the very end of X, there's on the TV, there's this, yeah, this like pastor going nuts being like, I got to get my daughter back. And we see a picture where it's like, oh, that's Maxineine this is a great fucking ending to a movie so cool so cool and the girls like dancing and being like i'm gonna be a star daddy and then he's like now what do we always say

to each other and uh it's something like i was like i, I'm going to remember this. I'm going to remember this. I repeated it to myself multiple times and now I can't remember. But something like, I don't approve of a world that doesn't make me happy. I love this version.

I will not approve of a world that doesn't make me happy. I will not approve of a world that doesn't make me happy. I will not approve of a world that doesn't make me happy. I will not approve of a world that doesn't make me happy. Something like that. It's I will not accept a life I do not deserve. Yes, okay. I think yours is better. Both are really good.

I was like, there's an A word in there. Yes. And I was like, approve, it's got to be. I will not accept a world. A life. A life. A life And I was like, approve. It's gotta be. I will not accept a world Alive. Alive. Alive.

I don't deserve. I don't deserve. And he goes, yeah, baby, that's right. That's right. And then, it says Maxine,

I think. I don't know. Title. Maybe. Yeah. I think it gives, is there like a little montage of like,

now we're in like 1985 LA. Yes, I think so. Yeah, it's just like very Hollywood. Some 80s song is playing and it's just like shots of like Reagan or something. Yeah, I think it's like an 80s montage. Wall Street, money flowing. Yeah. It's the 80s.

And then we see this big like, aren't they called elephant doors on sound stages? I have no idea. I want to say they're maybe called elephant doors. I like that. Yes. And it like slowly opens up and you realize like, oh, we're on a soundstage on a studio lot. And fucking Maxine comes clomping in. Just wear a mic. Just wear like.

It's like one of the best walks I've ever seen. What's she wearing? Tell me what she's wearing. Unbelievable. Denim head to toe, vest and jeans. It's like a zip up vest, isn't it? Yes. Big hair.

Zip up denim vest. A halter vest. Big hair. Platform shoes. Like. And it's just like such a deliberate and like sexy walk it's slow it's she's just taking her fucking time we should also say just a reminder obviously everybody knows this but in x prior to the events of this film so yeah we know that this late 70s yes x is like

kind of texas chainsawacre vibe, 70s Texas. Yes. She's got brown hair. We know that she is the sole survivor of that massacre that happened between her and Pearl. She eventually kills Pearl in the end and drives off into the sunset in search of her better life. So that's kind of her backstory that we know from previous movies so her energy is coming in like yeah i was like don't mess with me 10 years later ish right yeah five to ten and blonde and she's in la yep she's in la yeah so she's walking in like hey i have killed an old

lady to save my life i have killed an old lady who like got into bed with me and like i hated that part wasn't that that was so wild yeah so she's walking in like that clip clopping in they close the door and then they're like oh maxine minks and we'd see a headshot and they're like oh you're pretty known in the world of like adult films like kind of looking down she's like yeah so what so what and they're like why do you want to do this and she's like because i want to be famous i want to be famous thank you so much i think if i start smoking cigarettes i'll be even better oh but you pinky promised so i pinky promise dang it, okay. And then, yes, hot director. Elizabeth Debicki.

Her name is Elizabeth in the movie as well. It is Elizabeth in the movie. Yeah, yeah. She's like, is that your real accent? And Maxine is like, yes, ma'am. Like, okay, okay, continue. And then they're like, if you want to know your line, or if you want to look at your lines, go ahead.

Maxine's like, uh-uh, I fucking know it. Bring it on. And then we have, like, casting director of, like, read very quickly the whole thing. Like, look into camera. You've just had trauma, and go. And so Maxine closes her eyes, and, like, the camera pushes in,

and she delivers an incredible monologue from the movie she's auditioning for. Tears coming down all about being like I've seen the devil like I've the devil's inside me.

Fantastic. I want to see this movie. I will just say it now. I'll probably say it again. I think you can handle it and you'll like it. I think you can. I think you can. I think you can handle it and you'll like it. So she delivers this incredible monologue and like stares like kind of into the camera at the end of it

and has a moment and then they're like okay thank you and she immediately snaps out and she's like wiping away her tears and she's like alright well thanks so much like it's such a cool turn oh she's so good at acting i can't and then they're like uh oh can we see your boobs and she's like oh yeah totally and like unzips her jean vest shows the boobs we don't see the boobs shows the boobs and then is that maybe what it says, Maxine?

Something happens because then she walks out of the soundstage. And I love this part. This moment clinched the mood. I was like, I'm going to like this movie no matter what. She walks out and she's walking past a ton of blonde women who are going out for this same casting call. And she's like, y'all might as well just go home. Cause I fucking got it.

And like hops in her car that says a plate that says Maxine with three X's and like speeds off, like through the lot. And it's just like, this is the coolest. She's the coolest. She's the coolest. She's the coolest. And then, she's the coolest and then yeah we see like hollywood going on and we learn about like the night stalker

is happening at this time and that there's a killer on the loose uh people shouldn't walk alone at night all this stuff and then also ho Hollywood stuff, you know, Hollywood, Hollywood. Yeah, we're seeing like street performers on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and like, just like, just getting a lay of the land. Also, I just want to say I love to see an actor act. You know, I just love it. It's like a fun thing. It's so fun. Emily, you like to see an actor with a cold in real life. I do. I really like to see an actor with a cold in real life I do I really like to see an actor act on screen that is yes I like to see yeah you mean like an actor acting as something else like a performance within a performance completely I love that too yeah I do too I love

that I like especially when they're supposed to be bad at it it's that. It's so fun watching. It's so fun watching. She's incredible. It's so much fun. Then I think she like goes back to her house, right? Well, she lives above the video store

with Yes. Moses Sumney is the his character's name is Leon and he works at this video store

and she goes in like all jazzed after her Yes. audition. She goes in all jazzed and then like grabs Oh, does she go to the

landing strip? The strip club? Oh, I think she does. I think she goes to work at the strip club. Oh, she's got so many jobs. Okay, I have so many jobs. And her days are filled. She works at a, it's a porn set that is behind the strip club.

So right after her audition, she shows up on the porn set and we see her in her dressing room getting ready to shoot. And we see her friend getting railed for a movie. And she's in the middle of just getting pounded and is just like, hi, Maxie. And the director's like, hey, pay attention to what's going on. Really funny. Yeah. So then we see her getting ready for, I guess, a movie, a scene she's going to shoot. And we meet that friend who said hello while getting plowed.

And who's like, hey, I'm like, I'm going to go to a party up in the hills tonight. Do you want to come? And Maxine's like, I got to work. I'm working at another place called Show World. And the lady's like, all you do is work. And she's like, well, that's what you got to do if you want to become a star. And then she dips into this funny, I think it's a cookie jar. But she takes the lid off and it's just filled with cocaine.

cookie jar but she takes the lid off and it's just filled with cocaine as she just goes like i was re-watching pearl today just in the i just put it on the background just because i was like might as well i was gonna watch x but pearl is free and x is not for some reason so i was watching pearl and the first thing she kills in pearl is a goose and that little goose jar i feel Pearl is a goose. And that little goose jar, I feel like, is a little reference. Oh, that's cute. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's rad. That's cute. Very cute. So cute.

It's really cute. That is so cute. Really cute. That is so cute. This goose jar is filled with cocaine. And that is so cute. Filled with cocaine. And it's really cute.

So she does a little cocaine. And then she goes home and gets the call that she didn't get a lizzie borden music video but she did get that horror movie she auditioned for great and so she's pumped and she's like oh yes cool and as she's on the phone we see her like throw a gun on the bed as she's like getting clothes for her next job and then she goes downstairs to an adult video store where her friend works and and she's like name five actors who got their star in horror movies that we saw in the preview jamie lee

curtis and i was just thinking the reason they couldn't say Kevin Bacon because Kevin Bacon is in Friday the 13th. Right. Right. Kevin Bacon's in this movie. They should have said it though. That would have been fun. I always think of Kevin Bacon. Live in a universe where Kevin Bacon

is a famous actor. First movie. They did say John Travolta though. What was John Travolta in? I was trying to, I thought of that too. I was like, what was he in?

Somebody knows. You know, Brad Pitt's in one called Cutting Clash. Johnny Depp is in Nightmare on Elm Street. Johnny Depp's in Nightmare. Yeah, Johnny Depp is in Nightmare on Elm Street. I mean, a lot of people get their starting horror movies. It's just the truth. I know.

It's just the truth. It's just the truth. It's just the truth. Oh, duh. John Travolta's in Carrie. Oh my God. Oh, I forgot he was in Carrie. I thought he was in Carrie.

He is. Yes, that's right. yeah that's fun that's fucking fun i love that whoa okay that's good i always forget he's in there you should do grease on this one. You should do Grease. Very scary. I just tried to watch Grease with Silas, and Silas was not a fan.

As a two-and-a-half-year-old, he was like, mmm, pass. Pretty bad messaging. Pretty bad messaging in that. Change your whole personality and style to... Everybody. Everybody change everything about yourself to misogyny. Yeah, in order to get the person you want.

Yeah. It's not okay. But it's okay. Two and a half year old boys are rejecting it. So no one needs to worry. This was fine. We're in a new grade. And that's what he said, right?

He was like, it's misogynistic. I don't want to watch it. This is a misogynistic movie. I got the message, mama. Okay. Video store. Telling her friend she's got this part and we learn that she's the horror movie she's in is the sequel to a movie called the puritan and her friend is kind

of describing like the puritan is kind of a cult classic and will probably outlast all these other like big movies and stuff and And he was very much like, yes, this is very cool. You're going to have a good time. And then she's like, I gotta go. And he's like,

okay, goodbye. And then he like looks at a video and he's like, ass sandwich. Like find the place. I want to know what that movie is about. So then she goes To her next job

To her next job So many jobs I know she's working hard Which is right on Hollywood Boulevard At like I guess a peep show thing I don't know Like people put in coins Yeah

And look in a window For you to do a little dance for them And there's like a really cool shot Of like going down the hall And like this dude in a booth Who's like a really cool shot of like going down the hall and like this dude in the a booth who's like i guess giving out booths or what or you know like being like go to that one go to that one yeah and um he looks kind of like somebody out of harry potter when i was like that dude looks like a harry potter character um and so we then go into Maxine's booth

and we see this leather dude. This dude in very loud leather. The loudest leather on earth. Remember that SNL sketch with Jimmy Fallon? But where it was like the leather man, where the whole bit was like he was the leather man and they just were like

Yes. Amazing. That kind of loud. Yeah, like and he's wearing leather gloves and he like really really makes fists a lot. It goes like

Yes. And she's like dancing in a fun wig and like doing a dance for him. Yeah, she looks great. And he's just like gripping this thing with his leather gloves

and it's like leather sound. And then he rips off like a board in the booth or something. He's so mad. And that's the end of that scene. And then we see Maxine like walking out and kind of hanging out outside of the show world place on Hollywood Boulevard.

And then her friend comes out and rips a wig off. And we got Halsey. Just cause. Who's a musician. I had that mind. I was like, can you believe Halsey's in it? I was like, I don't know. Yeah, sure.

I don't know who that is. I don't know who that was. Yeah, I guess I can believe it. Has she ever been in anything else? Is she like an actress? I don't think so. But I think that maybe she wants to be. I thought she was good in this.

She was good. I thought you were going to say, maybe she won a contest. Maybe she won. How funny. It's like Dua Lipa was in Barbie. Joel and I just watched. Dua Lipa was also in Argyle, which I did not see.

I didn't see. Dua Lipa is her God-given name. We should all remember. She was born, first name Dua, last name Lipa was also in Argyle, which I did not see. I didn't see. Dua Lipa is her God-given name. We should all remember. She was born, first name Dua, last name Lipa. Born Dua Lipa. That was what her parents named her.

My baby Dua. My baby Dua Lipa. Joel and I watched Bad Boys 2 last night. That's fun. I feel like there was a time in movies where it was just like, if you're famous in any right,

we just put you in a movie and i'm not mad about doing that again she's been like yeah put her in a movie why not yeah put her in there because also she was good and this one had a basketball guy in it whose name i don't know but that's who i'm referencing was it that in bad boys too there's a basketball guy basketball guy you can insert whatever you want in there one time i went and saw chicago at the pantages with brandy brandy and then some football guy who was playing the richard gear part and uh he was okay he apparently won the heisman trophy and so a lot of times during the whole show, he would do the Heisman pose. He would do the Heisman in Chicago?

What the fuck? Isn't that so funny? In the Richard Gere part? In the Richard Gere part. And he was just kind of talking through the songs. This is really interesting. Because Sammy and I saw a show at the Pantages and it was pretty bad.

What'd you see? Is it just like jokes? Are they doing joke shows at the Pantages and it was pretty bad. What'd you see? Is it just like jokes? Are they doing joke shows at the Pantages? We saw Mamma Mia and we had a great time but the show was bad. The cast was bad and the show was pretty bad. I did see Book of Mormon there and it was good. I saw Book of Mormon

there and it was great. No football players in it? Not that I knew of. I mean, who knows? But Brandy's great. When I was growing up, I loved the Brandy Cinderella. Yeah. Brandy's awesome. I just saw a trailer for a new movie she's in and it looks awesome. Oh, isn't she going to be in an E24 movie or something?

That's right. It looks awesome. Oh, fuck yeah, Brandy. E24 movie. Yes. We'll be covering it here on the pod. We'll be doing it here. Oh, yeah.

Oh, yeah. We love Brandy. We love Brandy. anyways halsey yep and halsey is like um let's walk kind of home together ish i don't like leaving here by myself because the night stalker because the night stalker and maxine's like yeah sure whatever and then halsey's like do you want to go to a party in the hills with me? And Maxine's like, oh, first let's get a hot dog. She's like, we got to get a hot dog because I don't want anybody to see me eating at the party.

That's a bummer. So they're in line getting a hot dog. And she's like, do you want to come to a party? And then Maxine's like, oh, I can't. I can't. I have an early morning. And Halsey's like, do you want to come to a party? And then Maxine's like, oh, I can't. I can't. I have an early morning. You know? And Halsey's like, what? Why?

And she's like, I have a fitting for a film. And she's like, oh, are we talking like guy on girl or girl on girl? And she's like, no, like a movie movie. And Halsey's like, holy shit. Cool, man. And then she's like, it's a horror movie. And Halsey's stoked for her and everything. And is like, that rules.

I hope someday to be able to do that too. You know, very positive. Very nice. Very supportive. I know. It was very nice. It was very. No jealousy.

It was nice. It was nice. And then a cab pulls up and Halsey hops in and is like, are you sure you don't want to come? Like, it's going to be really fun. She says no. And then she says, like, be careful out there. And she says no and then she says like be careful out there and she says I can take care of myself and

so says every dead girl in Hollywood that was good Sammy that was so good that was good don't open your mouth it felt so like the taxi guy was like waiting to be like I'm gonna let her butt in this moment.

That's a good one. Let's pull away. She nailed it. Let's go. And so now we have kind of our first-ish spooky moment because Maxine is walking home and we're in Hollywood. We're on Hollywood Boulevard. It can be a little nasty.

It's a little nasty. It can be a little nasty. And she decides to go down a nasty, awful alley, which is like, come on, Maxine. I know you're fine. I know you can take care of yourself, but come on. And she's like cruising down and gets to of course a gated up place in a big lock you know where it's like i can't get out

and she can't get over because there's barbed wire yeah dead end and somebody's following her oh no and we see like a switchblade get fucking, I don't know, released or whatever. Popped open. Yeah. Popped open. And she turns around and sees a creepy dude just, like, far away from her but, like, cornered. And he's wearing, like, a funny little hat on a tilt and has like eyeliner on. Yeah, I think he was like one of the street performers we saw earlier.

He's dressed as Buster Keaton. He's dressed as Buster Keaton, which is so funny. And he's like, there's nowhere to run, nowhere to hide. Like taunting her, being like, I'm going to do something to you. And she turns around with a gun and she's like, yeah, right man. She says, drop it, buster. Yes!

The crowd goes wild. And he of course is like, whoa, hey, I was just kidding. I was just kidding. She's like, what were you going to do to me, man? He's like, I was just playing a lot, you know, just being a dork. Just being a fucking loser yeah i hate that i hate it so much i'm just being like hey chill out i'm just gonna kill you for fun why could you laugh yeah isn't that fun i was just gonna do

whatever i wanted to you um and she's like, now we're playing my game or something cooler than that. I guarantee you it's something way cooler than what I just said. And she's like, strip naked. And he's like, what? And she's like, take off all your clothes. Strip naked, dude. So he takes off his stupid hat, his stupid shoes, his stupid outfit. He's like wiping off the eyeliner.

Yeah, yeah. Buster Keaton. And she's like, okay, lay down. Ass up. Oh, no. So he's on, which already like so gross. Imagine laying naked on in an alley in Hollywood.

Ew, dude. That is so gross. I feel like, yeah, you guys said Hollywood is like sometimes a little bit gross. I want to amend it to Hollywood is always absolutely disgusting. Hollywood is disgusting. It's pretty nasty. For anyone who does not live in LA, if you ever, if you visit LA, skip it. If you're a tourist in LA, do not go to Hollywood.

Don't go to Hollywood. May I say, though, there is a Taco Bell cantina and a Dave & Buster's. Yeah. Okay, the Dave & Buster's is fun. The Dave & Buster's is fun. Yeah. There are highlights for sure. And an escape hotel with a funny bar that has magicians.

There's fun stuff there. Okay, well, there's some fun stuff there. Indoors. But it's nasty. Outdoors, don't get me wrong. But it's disgusting. Outdoors is bad. And the alleyways are going to be gross. There's fun stuff there. Indoors. But it's nasty. Don't get me wrong. But it's disgusting. Outdoors is bad. And the alleyways are going to be gross.

Alleyways, gross. The Walk of Fame is just the nastiest sidewalk you've ever seen in your life. It's not worth it. It's not worth it. Don't go there. It's disgusting. Don't do it. There have been plenty of times like walking down, I live very close to it, and like walking

down Hollywood Boulevard and like when you're chewing gum and then you smell something and you're like i have to spit out this gum because now i'm chewing that feeling we're like oh now i'm chewing it yeah yeah it's really bad it's really quite gross so imagine laying naked face down on that no gross dude But it's about to get worse. She's like, you know what happened to the last person who tried to like, who tried to kill me or something? He tried to kill me or something. He's like, oh, and she's like, I stomped on her fucking head. And then she fucking stomped on his nutsack. Oh, my God.

In high heels. And it fucking explodes. And we get a close up. Two close up shots. It's of the stomp itself and it going like. And then another one of like the like broken sack. I closed my eyes. I actually didn't.

I did too. I closed my eyes. I saw the first. I did too. I closed my eyes. I saw the first, so the first time I saw the movie, I saw the first stomp and then I was like screaming at how gross it was and I missed the second one. And this time I was like, Betsy, you keep

your fucking eyes open. You gotta see what happens. And it's a nasty shot and you see like, you kind of see Wiener and you see like broken nutsack i got a little lightheaded also it's so hot in my office now that the ac's off yeah anyways maxine can take care of herself dude yeah so then we cut to her and her friend from the video store hanging out on her couch both asleep and the end of the puritan is playing on the tv and they have like pizza and it looks like a nice little hang you

know and they're both snoozing on each other and then suddenly there's a like bump bump bump bump on her door and she like kind of slowly gets up and is like what makes her way to the door opens the door and sees that there's somebody in the elevators the doors closing and it looks like a man maybe in leather and so we see the door close and she

looks down and there's like a manila envelope and she like grabs it and opens it and it's a VHS that says Maxine on it so she goes to her grabs it and opens it and it's a vhs that says maxine on it so she goes to her her vcr and pops it in and it says police evidence and then it cuts to the footage of the porno they were making an x oh whoa okay specifically footage of her like specifically on top of someone naked like having sex so like very explicit footage of yourself that you would be like really unsettled to be boobies out yeah just like uh-oh dropped off on your doorstep would be like yeah uh yes and so she freaks out her friend wakes up and he's like what's that she's like nothing

and like pops it out remember like trying to hide stuff from your parents with like analog stuff just like i can see i can see fast enough see who trying to i remember it was like watching real world was so not like naughty yeah being like nothing oh just nickelodeon um so she freaks out runs to her room and her friend's like hey i'm gonna go and she's like yeah okay and he's like you okay she's like yeah yeah yeah i'm fine but she's freaking out and then i think we see a shot of kevin bacon like in his car outside parked on the street and yeah he's like a private investigator type guy that has been hired to track down maxine because we hear him talking to the guy in leather in his back seat is his client yeah and he's like uh in his nolan's accent how can you do it can who can do it that that was

really good that's perfect no i don't know. It took me two times watching it and him mentioning Louisiana a couple of times where I was like, oh, New Orleans. That's his accent. New Orleans. New Orleans. You hired me to find her.

Yeah, we found her. You sure are dedicated. No, that's not right. But you get the idea. Close enough. Close enough. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And he's like, if you want me to continue, like, going further and taking it the next step, you're going to have to pay me.

And then we just see Leatherhand very loudly go on the, like, car seat, just so loud. And you're like, what the fuck is going on? so loud and you're like what the fuck is going on and then we cut to a video recording of the two friends that invited her to the hollywood party halsey and the other adult film actress not halsey halsey and not halsey and they it's hard to tell where they are, but there there's like a lot of men in cloaks and it feels kind of culty and we can't really see what's happening. But they're obviously very scared and tied up and like don't know where they are and like begging for their lives. And we don't really see what happens to them. But it seems like this is going to be some sort of snuff film. And wherever this Hollywood Hills party they've been invited to

has been a setup and wait who's watching this movie again sorry we don't know it's just being shown to us yeah oh i see i see so it's kind of disorienting like we don't know what where this came from yes but i feel like we do see like a leather gloved hand enter the frame of that except there's some connection that's like oh the leather guy is like part of this yeah very loudly we hear it we plug our ears it's so loud wait at this point at this point having seen x like are you thinking are you speculating do you have any ideas of like anyone it could be connected to yeah i don't want to say but yes okay okay i did not and i kind of feel dumb but i was just like who could this possibly be and it's like oh duh okay great um sorry did you guys just see joel i did he has a beautiful vision he has a beautiful vision joel joel went to make me another drink and he crashed my cup.

I'm sorry, this is one of my more off-the-rails live shows. I like it. Thank you, Betsy. He came to grab my cup because I have a background so he thought he was safe, but you just saw his full... I can't wait to... I think there'll be a replay

at some point that I can't wait to watch. Wait, is it okay if I leave for one second to look for this pacifier? Oh, you just gotta do it. We could do a break. Intermission. And I could just talk right at camera. Yeah, Betts, just talk right to me. Okay, you two have a little chat.

We'll have a little chat. For two minutes. Two minute chat. Two minute chat. Oh, man. Two minute chat. Betts, have you had to do jury duty? Oh my god

Yeah A couple years ago I had to And I kept I had kept putting it off and off Oh you like pushed it? I pushed it to where they're like You have to show up

And it was a week before I was supposed to shoot a pilot. And I got into a room for a trial that was going to be like a murder trial. That was going to be like two months worth. And I kept being like, I cannot. I have to shoot a pilot. Like I have work. And they're like, we don't know. We don't know.

Maybe you won't get picked know maybe you won't get picked maybe you won't get picked so we go through i think i was like number 48 out of 50 two days of them doing like jury selection and i'm watching the whole time the second day they pick their 12 and there's like four of us left or something. I was like, great. You got it fucking dirty. I'm out of here, man. And then they're like, we need two alternates.

And I was like, oh, no. Oh, no. And like one person, maybe there's like three of us left. Because one person went ahead of me and they got chosen to be an alternate and then they're like okay juror number what 49 or whatever come down and i turned in fucking mr bean i was like fumbling like my backpack got caught on shit i like kept sitting in the wrong chair and they're like no sit right there and i was like oh my god okay okay and then they asked me all these questions and it

was um some uh maybe a gang member shot a cop or something like that case and so they asked a lot about like do you trust the police stuff like that when i feel like and i just kept being like nope i don't want bit and they were like what do you do for a living I was like I'm a comedian and an actor and they're like okay so like if you were to get on jury would you talk about the case and I was like absolutely I would talk about it live on stage I would do everything I would do nothing but this would become my whole personality yeah I was like that's what we're like taught to do is like pull from real life I like bullshit and so they were like finally like all right get out of here and i was just like yeah it was scary it was intense though i was like i don't want to do a like murder yeah do you have it no no i got called last week i'm i've been released but the

first thing they said to all of us was like we have a trial and we have to like read out some like conditions for it because they expect this trial to last 70 days and they like went went down a list of names and they're like criminal something bad something bad oh my god and yeah they they like had to go down all these lists of names and be like if you can't do it say no if you if you don't meet the criteria to like excuse yourself, you have to say yes. And almost everyone said no, but a few people said yes. I would have said yes.

Is it that wild? I would have said yes. You would have said yes, I know, because you're an upstanding citizen. I want to be on a jury so bad. I also just had it recently, but I think the judge got sick and delayed the case because I was in the booth.

I was juror number seven. Whoa. And then at the end of the day, the judge was like looking really pale and like sweating. And he was like, I think we got to wrap it up for the day and end it early.

Hi, Joe. But hi, Jew. Honestly, really good. And he's gone. Into the mist. All right. right all right great little commercial break that was a great thank you thank you so much for waiting i couldn't find the pacifier tim's on a walk with may now to try to get her to sleep so late and silas is peacefully sleeping in the other room. Good, good, good, good. Just a sweet little angel. But, oh, you guys, pacifiers.

God damn it. Pacifiers, dude. Big part of my life. Oh, tell me about it. Fucking pacifiers. Don't I know it. Don't I know it. Let's get back into it So we have

Halsey and not Halsey Both dead Their corpses are found in I believe the Hollywood Forever Cemetery It does look like the Hollywood Forever Cemetery And so we meet our detectives Bobby Cannavale and Michelle Monaghan And I don't know what their real names are

Does she play a detective In another movie? True detective, I think. Well, no, she's the wife of. She's the wife of a detective. I have not watched True Detective. She's definitely been in a detective in something else, though. I'm sure she has.

That's her vibe for sure. I feel like just saw her as a detective in something and she's great. She's great. I love her. She's incredible. She's another woman that doesn't age. I feel like her, yeah. She does not age. She really does not. Yeah. I love her. She's another woman that like doesn't age. I feel like her. Yeah. She does not age.

She really does not. Yeah. I'm very excited. She's going to be in the next season of White Lotus. Her and Walton Goggins. And those are two people that I am very excited to see. Oh, that's going to be fun. I'm pumped to hear what the new theme is going to be.

I know. The last one was a fucking banger. The last one like. It's so good. I listened to to get pumped up. I feel like I was at fucking the last one like it's so good i listened to to get pumped up i feel like i was at a bar that they played it at once and it was just like everyone like if i could just listen to that he's really like that and the challenger score the it's the only music i like and if i just listen to that all the time i think i'd be a pretty normal well

adjusted human being yeah There you go. We should do a study where for a month, I'll do it if you guys will, for a month, as soon as we wake up, we have to listen to the White Lotus season 2 theme song. I bet it will improve the quality of our lives. I think it will.

In a month, we've all murdered somebody. I think it will. In a month, we've all murdered somebody. That's so... And we have evidence on this live stream that they did it. I think you promised. I think we'll be happy. I think we'll be happy. Yeah, so we find their bodies, and they have a pentagram carved in.

Cult shit. like they have like a pentagram carved in culture and um we got the like kind of goofy corner like sucking on a cigarette being like here's your meat you know like the class i'm surprised he wasn't like eating a fucking sandwich that classic thing well we've seen this before you know yeah and he's like do you think it's the night stalker and they're like do you want it to be or do you need you know the detectives are like we don't we don't think so but maybe and then we have the spooky we cut to maxine in the like special effects makeup yes warehouse and um we got our girl from yellow jackets and the boogeyman and she's like i'm gonna put a plaster mold on your head so that we can make your fake head for the movie and she's like okay okay she starts like dunking this nasty plaster on her and like just slopping it on her face that stuff is so gnarly

when people have to sit still for like casts or even just like prosthetics makeup. And it's just hours and hours of it's really wild. And this is super wild because she covers her in that goo stuff and then sets a timer. It's like, I'll be back in like 10 minutes. Just remember to breathe. But she doesn't have any holes in her nose or mouth to breathe out of. Like, I thought you got a straw or something. She gives her absolutely no like idea of what it's supposed to be like.

She's just like, yeah, so I'm going to go. You've never done this before, Will? Oh, this is your first time? Oh, okay. Well, see ya. You just sit there. You'll be fine. See you in 10.

So, like, she's just sitting in this chair. This goo is just, like, slopping on her. It's really a cool, nasty image. It's really creepy. Awesome. And the camera's just like slowly coming in. And she starts having like flashbacks to her time with Pearl. And dealing with nasty Pearl.

And like killing her. And having Pearl like sniffing her hair as she like sleeps, you know? Which like obviously she'd have like trauma and PTSD from, but I feel like she has such a tough exterior and like by necessity from like the industry she works in and like her life in general from what we've seen. And she has this like one moment of actual like real feeling where we see the actual effects that it has had on her i feel like vulnerability yeah i was not expecting this movie to deal with the trauma of x but that is like

that comes back again like that this is just a woman who's dealing with that makes sense that horrific experience we don't often get to see the final girl of a horror movie like 10 years later right it would be really really bad i mean i guess except for neve campbell and scream who we just see like over and over and over again having the same trauma happen she gets a golden retriever to help her with her ptsd yeah that's all you need that is so like i never thought of that until now of like, oh, she's forced to just sit with her thoughts. Yep.

Because she's constantly, which makes sense to be like, I don't have to fucking think about this. How many freaking jobs does she have? Yeah, let me just stay busy. And that blew my mind. Yeah, she's forced to just sit there. And of course, like. The first thing that happens.

She can't see anything it's like i want to imagine pearl and me driving over her head like of course and so there's like this really intense and she like starts like wiggling and it starts like ooey gooey melting like look it's so like claustrophobic because it's like your head is in a little weird plastic mold thing that you can't really breathe well in. So she's having a full panic attack. Yeah, yeah. And so she's freaking out. And then we see these old hands come towards her shoulders.

No. and like kind of start to grab her and then she like flings herself back in the chair and crashes to the ground and starts like ripping off all the goo to just breathe. And then finally makeup girl comes in and is like, oh, oh, are you okay? We're going to have to do that again. That someone wouldn't just breathe to this. Yeah, you got to be sitting with that person being like,

hey, six more minutes. I'm right here. Don't worry. Yeah, you just like hold that person's hand. Yes. And so she's like kind of freaking out. And then we see her in her cool car. And oh man, we see her light up a big old cigarette.

Oh, and it looks cool. And it looks awesome, man. And it sounds cool. And she's sitting in her car. And one of like the PAs or assistant directors comes up and is like, Hey, Elizabeth wants you to come back later for a meeting. She's like, okay, okay. And he kind of warns her.

He's like, she can be a lot. I've seen her lose her mind. But just a heads up. She can be a lot. But just kind of do what she says. You'll be fine. You'll be fine. And Maxine's like, okay, okay.

And she starts her car and then she notices something on her windshield. And she hits the wipers and there's a little note. And she like grabs it. And it says for a good time call and it's a number. And then she unfolds the paper and it's, oh, we don't know what it is yet. Oh, okay, okay. We don't know what it is yet. So okay yeah yeah we don't know what it is yet so she goes to the phone and she calls this number

As we always say in New Orleans, come and meet me here. Come and meet me. It kind of turns into Forrest Gump a little bit too. And then he refers to her as Miss Miller. And then she opens up the paper and it's a page from her yearbook. And we see little Maxine Miller. And she's like, uh-oh, who is this guy? So that she goes to

So after the lunch meeting with Kevin Bacon and he gives her an address to something, something, Starlight Drive, go there tonight, she's kind of giving the impression that she's not going to because she's, for some reason, not taking this threat seriously. She's trying to escape this. Yes. And so she gets back to her apartment

and she is met by Bobby Cannavale and Michelle Monaghan who have put together that she knows the victims of the murder that they are investigating. That they're like not sure if it's both. Both the women that she worked with, both of them and they're like. She's a common thread. Yeah. And they have a fun game of like

she, what's her name, Molly? Michelle. Michelle Monaghan. Michelle. I don't know her character name, who cares, but yeah, Michelle either. She's always calling out the dude for like acting too like aggro. He's way too aggressive. Yeah. He's just like. He's super aggressive.

Tell us what you know. Like going hard. When there's like a bit that he's. Come on. Come on, baby. We know you know something. He's a failed actor. So he's like playing at being a detective.

That's like his. Yeah. It's a funny bit. It's a good bit. I love him. He's excellent playing at being a detective. That's like his bit. Yeah, it's a funny bit. It's a good bit. I love him. He's excellent. He's so good. Everybody's so good. Is he married to Rose Byrne? Yes. Yes. Can you even believe? What a couple.

I didn't know that. It is just a really hot couple. It's a lot to process. That's awesome. Take a beat. I gotta take a second. Holy shit That's awesome. Take a beat. I gotta take a second. Holy shit, dude. Let that sink in.

Let that sink in because that's a good one. That's good. That's a good one. That's a really good one. It's what you want. It just keeps on hitting. Oh, man. It keeps on hitting.

It's really good. Waves of it. Yeah, sheesh. That's really good. I don of it. That's really good. I don't know if it's my hot office or I'm getting it. Betsy passes out. Yeah. I can't lock my knees.

I'll be done for. Don't lock them. Don't lock them. And so they're like, do you know anything? Tell us any information. And Maxine's like, I don't talk to cops. And she like runs upstairs. It's like i don't talk to cops and she like runs upstairs and then it's like betsy on jury duty i will say anything that will be so against what you need me to do

let me tell you like i say whatever and she watches them like go in and then does she call her agent or not yet i am not sure because she does go back next thing i have written is is back on set but i feel like her agent is in here somewhere and we should just say that giancarlo esposito in a non-Gus Fring role. Yeah, he's not a villain. He's just, I loved him in this. I love seeing him doing something different. Oh my God, he has a big puffy wig and is wearing tracksuits constantly.

He's just kind of like a sleazy manager. Yeah, sleazy manager. First, she has a meeting with Elizabeth. Yes. She has the meeting. Okay, okay, okay, yes. She has a meeting with Elizabeth where they drive around. Like, she picks her up in her golf cart.

And it's just driving her. Studio lots are so fun. Such a good monologue of just being like, you know, the producers didn't want to cast you, but I fought for you. Like, they thought it'd be too controversial oh and the whole time we're seeing protesters outside of the studio being like horror movies are the devil like satanic you love satanic panic which i feel like was in our like opening 80s montage yeah like just like how people in the 80s are so freaked out about everything yeah satanic panic stuff so uh the director is driving her all around the lot telling her like you know i saw something in you that uh you know nobody wants to give a chance i want to

give you a chance people don't want to give me a chance we're kind of in this together you know but it's what believe it or not way more elegant than it. It was like a British accent. I will not approve of a world I don't desire. That I don't think is fun? That I don't think is fun. And I won't. Her vibe is just, is like intense. It's kind of like befriending her like a mentor,

like I can help you. But she's also a little threatening, like don't fuck this up because very few people get here and one misstep and you'll be like right back where you came from and it's like I support you I encourage you I think you're great but also like don't get in my way

like it's like very supportive but like this is a dog eat dog world kind of the vibe you know and she drives her to the Psycho house and Bates Motel. And it says Bates Motel, almost full frame. And she goes,

this is where Psycho was filmed. That made me laugh. Both were like, really funny. Yeah, no, we know. Yeah, yeah, yeah. We get it, we get it, we get it. We do get it, we do get it.

Yeah, that's kind of the meeting, right? She does have a momentary panic. Maxine looks up at Bates Motel and is looking in the window and looks as if she sees Pearl, old Pearl in there and starts to kind of freak out and zone out on it.

Elizabeth Zbicki notices and this might be where she tells her you need to get your head in the game and focus up for this movie. I think it's on a Friday on it and Elizabeth's to make you like notices and this might be where she tells her like you need to get your head in the game yes like focus up for this movie I think it's on a Friday and they're basically gonna have the weekend off and she's like take the weekend get your head together like whatever is going on with you you need to squash it because you're kind of killing my vibe I can tell you're like not present she says I intend to so after this meeting with elizabeth she sees kevin bacon on the universal lot following her oh yeah and she puts i love this part her car keys in between her fingers

as we have all seen before and she just was i feel like i've been told that doesn't work though she makes it look like it makes it work here and she just walks filming her. No, I feel like I've been told that doesn't work. Though she makes it look like it works. She makes it work. Here. And she just walks right up to his car, punches him a whole bunch of times in the face. Oh, okay.

It's wild. Fucks him up. Fucks him up. It's his broad daylight like on the Universal lot. She doesn't give a fuck. And she's just like, if I see you following me again,

I'm gonna fucking kill you. Like, get away from me. Wow. Have you guys ever done that? Have you ever walked somewhere and put your keys between your not? Yes. As if I would know what the fuck to do with that. No,

no, no. I have definitely done it. I absolutely have. You're speaking to Henley, someone whose weapon of choice is Wolverine claws. I think she's done it. That's true.

I bet she's done it. I bet she's done it. That's your weapon of choice? Yeah, because it can't leave you. I don't want something that you can drop and it's gone. It's part of my body. Yeah, they can't pull it off of you. That would rule.

You'd be automatic self-defense and your fist would be iron. That's smart. Are you excited for Deadpool and Wolverine? So excited. I'm excited for it to come out so I don't have to see any more previews. I'm with you. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, God. I remember we saw the trailer for that for some other movie we watched recently. They had that trailer and I've never seen any of the Deadpool movies, but they show Ryan Reynolds with his mask off and I turned to Joel and I was like, why does he look like that?

And Joel was like, that's Deadpool. And I was like, what is this movie? It is. Yeah, I didn't know. I was like, why does he look like that? And Joel was like, that's Deadpool. And I was like, what is this movie? It is. Yeah, I didn't know. I was like, he gets burned? I was like, what is this? Who is this guy? Silas was like, that's Spider-Man?

That's Spider-Man? And I was like, no, it's someone named Deadpool. And he was like, no, honey, that's Ryan Reynolds. He's married to Blake Lively. He's married to Blake L lively he's married to blake lively they have four children very good looking couple but they're a little bit annoying taylor swift they love taylor swift they're really supportive of taylor swift and travis kelsey taylor swift taylor swift got it Is it Swifty?

Uh huh Of course You can't raise a child in America Without them being a Swifty Did you know? They gotta be a Swifty Oh man It's the only way You can get your passport

It's the only way You can get your passport You a Swifty Be honest I heard that that's a big part Of the interview for TSA Global Entry It's like well Come on

What's your favorite song? Did you go to the heiress tour? Prove it. What date, what city? Okay. Okay. And now she goes home after that and instead of meeting the person

on Stardust Avenue or whatever it's called, she just stays home reading her script defiantly. Yes. She's not going to meet up with them. And this is when downstairs something happens. Something bad's happening.

Something bad's happening. Perhaps she's paying the price in a way she doesn't realize. We see her friend who's chilling, who also we forgot to mention is always playing with a big Rambo knife. And he has a cast on his arm, which I think is just a fun detail. Yeah, he has a cast and he's always playing with like a huge knife. And this is Moses Sumney, the musician,

which I just think is fun that Moses Sumney is in this and Kid Cudi was in the first one. And I don't know, I just think that's like a fun little, and Halsey. And you know what's also fun is that Emily is the one to notice that. And you know what's also fun is that. He's so great in this.

Is that Emily is the one to notice that. Emily as a person. No, because I love music. I love music famously. Music and musicians. Big eye roll. Big eye roll. Yeah.

Whoa. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I do love Kid Cudi actually. I haven't listened to Moses Sumney. He's good. No, I had no idea. And he was great in this movie. He was great.

Also, what a beautiful man. It's also in The Idol, a really good show that nobody has anything bad to say about. Yeah, not controversial at all. Universally beloved. Beloved. Beloved. Yes, so while she's doing cocaine and highlighting her script, he, like, somebody walks into the store and we don't see who it is.

We hear it. We hear it. Oh, it sounds like leather? And he's like, can I help you? And then we cut back to him and he's like, oh, I'm out of that business. I don't do that anymore. And then cut back to her, he's like oh I'm out of that business I don't do that anymore and then cut back to her like highlighting like a maniac and then

we see him letting like an old dude out of the store and like closing it up and then we see Leatherman in the background. Oh yeah it's a really good scary shot he like just sort of like appears. It just sort of appears,

grabs the knife, and then slowly like approaches him and slices him in the back of the neck. You don't often get a back of the neck slice. Yeah, it's nasty. And simultaneously the lines that Maxine is

highlighting are like sort of describing what's happening. Yeah, it's like, they will pay for your sins. And like, it's like things like that. And we're like cutting back and forth between her just like highlighting

these lines and him getting slashed. That's good. That's good. It's a close reading. It's a close reading. Good job, Ty. That's good. Ty, okay.

That was a nice touch. That's how you make movies. It's also very like, this scene is also very Giallo influenced. Yes. Big time. Close-ups of the leather gloves in general just will always be a reference to Giallo. Just that's like such a trademark of Giallo movies. And this kill in particular is very like close-up of like

it felt very like suspiria vibes that kind of thing where it's like it's nasty but also like you can't look away like it was it's an awesome kill and he's just getting stabbed like crazy. It's a lot. He gets stabbed a lot and he was just a nice guy. He's just a nice dude. And then at the end we see Leatherhand rip out his little cross earring

from his ear. Oh, I hate an earring rip. I know that like so much worse stuff has happened to him and he's probably already dead by the time this earring gets ripped out.

But I hate that. I think it's because that's like one of those things that you know what it would feel like. Like we don't know what being stabbed 30 times would feel like. I mean, you know it would feel bad. But like I feel like we've all had a moment where

like something almost catches on your earring and you're like, fuck, that would hurt so bad. So those kind of smaller things are like easier to imagine. It's like more visceral. So they're really effective. Yeah. But I was sad that he died.

He was a nice guy. He was a nice guy. Has she talked to her agent yet about this dude? I think that is maybe next. Or is it coming up? The phone starts ringing and she wakes up. Oh, she has talked to him because the phone call, he's like, this is what I found from the phone number you gave me.

So she, before this, went to her agent to be like, you're also my lawyer, right? And she kind of tells him everything. We got confidentiality. She tells him everything. I think she even tells him about like Texas, everything. Everything. Murders, all of it. And he like Texas, everything, everything, everything.

Murders, all of it. And he's like, I will help you out. Cause he's like a sleazy. He's like, is sleazy Asian, but he's also like your careers go in places.

I'll do anything for you. Like I got your back. She's like, sign me up, baby. Yes. And I, I truly do love John Carlos. Was he doing this role?

Cause I feel like, especially on the tales of Abigail, where I was like, Oh, he's doing the same is the same thing the same thing he always does and he's such a good actor and I of course he's always going to get cast in that kind of like villainous role. I think Breaking Bad casts a heavy shadow on his. A really heavy shadow. Yes. From then because he's been acting like way before that but the Breaking Bad role was so significant in his career that people are like oh we'll hire him when we need something I mean he's incredible Gus Fring unbelievable but I love seeing him just

be like kind of silly I love this for him I was really excited to see him do this like if there had been a turn where it was like and actually he's the bad guy I'd be like god fucking damn it or he shows up in a tweed suit with a buzz cat and a perfectly gel he's the bad guy. And I'm like, God fucking damn it. He shows up in a tweed suit with a buzz cut and a perfectly show.

He was me the whole time. He takes off the wig and he's just like stone-faced. Damn it. That's like the voice from Mandalorian. It's like, God damn it. No, but he was great. He was having fun. But yeah, so she tells him everything

and he's like, I fucking got you. Why didn't you tell me to begin with? Let me handle it. He's like, you just focus on the movie. I got this. The movie's the most important thing for you. The most important thing in the world. And so she's on the phone with him

and he's like, I found this much information about this Kevin Bacon detective guy. And he's like telling her some stuff of just like, he's a pro, da, da, da, da. And then she hears sirens outside of her window and of just like he's a pro and then she hears um sirens outside of her window and she's like what and she like runs downstairs and uh-oh something happened at the adult video store her friend so she's like in the crowd and the two detectives clock her and she clocks them and they're like kind of waiting to see what she does they wheel out the friend's body this is crazy i laughed very hard fucked

up they bring out a corpse covered in a blanket they didn't even try to get a fresh blanket this blanket is soaked with blood it is completely drenched it is a white blanket that has turned absolutely red all over. This is not professional behavior. I suppose it was the 80s but this feels like a really crazy thing to do. It was too crazy.

A huge crowd, huge crowd, like 50, 30 to 50 people just like gathered around and they're like, here's the corpse. Again,

the amount of people who are going to be at my wedding and they're all out here looking at this corpse. They wheel it out. Michelle Monaghan and Bobby Cannavale, they lock eyes with Maxine and they go

and they lift the ship and they show her his fucking face. You know this guy. With like an eyeball missing. Oh yeah, because he got his eyeball slashed. Pentagram on it. And like everybody starts screaming. This is so unprofessional of them. Really? Because it was the 80s. Everybody's fucking screaming. This is so unprofessional of them. Really? Because it was the 80s.

Everybody's fucking screaming. And her performance is so good. She like runs at them and is like freaking. She's devastated. That was really her friend. And they like grab her and then we cut to them giving her a new coke

and she's in the police station. And Michelle's dressed like amelia erhart and looks pretty cool yeah yeah yeah i noticed that as well i was like what a cool outfit she's gorgeous her vibe is her vibe is so cool i've always thought that she was very cool yeah yeah so rad and dressed as a pilot. Very cool. Very cool. Pilot detective. Very 80s, like, baggy pants into, like, calf boots, you know? Like, that kind of silhouette. Very good. Pilot detective.

Very good. Hell yeah. And they, like, bring her in to look at her other two friends' bodies in, like, the morgue or whatever. And they're like, we need your need your help like you need to help us you need to tell us anything you know because more people are going to die and Maxine's like why do I have to I don't know and they're like you're connected to these people you must know something what's going on and she's like I don't know i gotta go to work and then michelle follows her and is like please like you could probably be the person to stop the next like i'm on your side

all i want like i i like i don't care who you are what you did i just want to prevent the next murder like that's what we're all about yeah and maxine is like why doesn't she stop it herself what we're all about yeah and maxine is like why doesn't she stop it herself and then she's like well how how or something and then maxine's like because i did because maxine's like i fucking took care of myself why do i gotta take care of other people yeah yeah oh and then we cut to them shooting the puritan to a flashback scene with the woman who was in puritan one and like there's a hand grabbing an apple and then this like pilgrim lady bites into the apple and then all this blood comes out and then we hear cut and like she's looking around and like spits in a bucket it's Lily Collins oh yes I was wondering when Lily Collins was gonna join is she Emily? Yes, she is Emily in Paris. And she's Phil Collins' daughter.

Yes. That I knew. And the director's like, oh, that wasn't like good. That didn't look good enough. We need more blood, more blood. And Maxine runs in and is like, sorry I'm late.

And the director's like, don't waste my time with excuses. Don't ever do it again. Because once again, she explains like, don't waste my time with excuses. Don't ever do it again because once again, she explains like, this is so hard for us and what we're doing and once you're here. She's also like, she's like, I don't give a fuck. I will call

the second best person who auditioned and have them here tomorrow. Like, if you can't actually do it, I want it to be you, but if you can't, you are so replaceable. Just do not fuck up again. Yes. It's intense. It's replaceable just do not fuck up again yes it's intense it's pretty great but it's intense but it's pretty great and and of course yeah that's the job maxi's like yeah yeah yeah i won't i won't i won't and then she's like come along come along

with me and she starts like rubbing a bunch of blood on the actor's face and it's very funny and introduces the two of just like a maxine here's this lady and they shake and bloody hands and then and that director goes like now we all have blood on our hands or something like that it's like okay okay and then they're at her trailer right yeah i think they go to yeah they wrap up yep uh maxine follows lily collins to her trailer and she's kind of giving her advice like i was the star of puritan one you're the star of puritan two like let me tell you about elizabeth she's a hard ass but she's lily collins is not gonna do well with maxine i really loved her in this role she's a funny little like yorkshire accent that she does,

which is really, really great. Really fun. I would have maybe thought is her real accent, but now that Elizabeth Debicki is not British. Now I feel, I looked it up. This is one of the little bits of trivia.

So like Elizabeth Debicki is Australian playing American. Mia Goth is British playing American. Lily Collins. I think she was maybe born in England or raised in England, but she's American and has an American accent. Really? And is doing a Yorkshire accent. Wow. So that's just fun. Lots of accents.

Accents all around. And Kevin Bacon doing a New Orleans accent. Kevin New Orleans. Kevin Bacon from New Orleans. But she's being very sweet and she's like you're gonna do great like she's a great director just like show up and do what you have to do and they're like really

connecting and then she Lily Collins says to her it was nice to meet you Nadine and then shuts her trailer door which is a very funny little detail us women gotta like look out for each other in this industry.

I don't care who you are. Bye, Nadine. Oh, but she does say, she's like, I have to go get ready. I'm going to a, I was invited to a party by a big Hollywood producer

in the hills tonight. Anyway, nice to meet you, Nadine. Gonna be a stuff film. You're gonna look cute. And she also has a really funny moment of just like.

Yeah, she does her little face. In the Puritan one, she was like, the cover of the movie is her scream. And so she's like, my silent scream. It is funny. It's a really funny moment. It really is fun. I'll say that about this movie. I do think everybody was really having fun.

Yes. Which I love to see. It felt like that. That counts for a lot. It does. It counts for a lot. Yeah, it's a bummer watching something where you're like, uh-oh. Everyone's just clocking in. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Nobody

wanted to be here. Yeah. So then she's driving. No. She sees Kevin Bacon. She sees Kevin Bacon. On the lot, like, spying on her. Yes. Well, because now he's all fucked up because she beat the shit out of him. Yeah, I was gonna say. He is pissed. Is he okay? Yeah, he's got bandages on his face. Yes. Well, because now he's all fucked up because she beat the shit out of him. And he is.

Is he okay? Yeah. He's got bandages on his face. She like missed the appointment to go to that address. And then she beat the shit out of him. And so now he's like, I'm here to get you because you didn't show up and he fucked me up. And so like now it's on.

And then he chases her. It's like a very fun. It is such a fun chase. Tom and Jerry chase. They're on the universal lot, fully running, like true running. Like Mia Goff is actually running.

Kevin Bacon is actually running. He's doing a very funny, like very bent knee kind of run. That's like so, so fun. But what I loved about the scene too, is they start in like the western town which is a very fun place to start this like standoff and there's like sort of westerny music playing and

then they like run through the new york city set and the music shifts to being a little more new york city and then they it's so so fun it just made me like love movies yes see it just felt like so playful and so present in this way that's like well let's just like make the whole scene the environment and i just really really enjoyed it yeah it's awesome and the chase ends at the psycho house which is very fun and there's a lot of stairs and maxine's ahead of him and she runs into the psycho house and he is on her tail but he is really running out of air because it's a lot of stairs and it's a lot of running

and he's running crazy and he's older. The bent knee, I'm curious about what that could be. I don't know how to, it's so funny. I tried to find pictures of it today I was like, Maxine, Kevin Bacon running and I couldn't find pictures of it today. I was like, Maxine, Kevin Bacon running. And I couldn't find it because it really stuck with me.

It was so funny. It's so weird. Truly his V's go like out to the side. I feel like the scene in general kind of feels like a cartoon like Coyote Roadrunner. Yeah. It's like very fun in like a childish way. It almost reminds me of that because I just realized it reminds me of that because I have the song playing in my head,

that scene in Barbie where she's like running through the office. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And it's like very much like, oh, oh, it's like slapstick. Yes. That's interesting. You don't see that in horror movies a lot because the whole point of Tom and Jerry, the whole point of slapstick is no harm shall be done. Like it will seem like harm shall be done like right it's just gonna be done

but it's all fun it's all in jest and so it's unusual to see that in an actual horror movie yeah but then it does get scary because he like she gets into the psycho house and it's just like there's nowhere to go because it's an empty set right it's not actually a house it's a facade and he's got his gun drawn and we like believe that he wants to kill her because she's like fucked him up and and he's out for revenge now and so the stakes do feel real yeah yeah and then a security guard's like hey you gotta pass just in the nick of time and kevin bacon's just like oh i misplaced it. I don't have a pass. Feel free to kill as much as you want to then.

In New Orleans, we don't have a pass. We just walk around, no passes, no nowhere. And so then you see, like, she watches him walk away with the security guard and is like, phew. And then she's walking back to her car and passes our director Elizabeth and that's when Elizabeth is like dude you gotta get your head in the fucking game.

Squash it. Squash it. You gotta squash it. Whatever it is you've got going on that's getting in the way of this film, squash it. I intend to. I intend to. Yes. And then we kind of cut to like them planning right like a little montage of getting ready for the night yep applying makeup i think emily is probably

familiar with doing it she has like a spray gun right like in my experience it goes exactly as planned it looks good it feels good you really like it you feel like it's exactly right you're not getting a rash from it no you're not worried about what's this gonna be like when i wash my face later you feel you feel really good do for our good friend lisa made a instagram video previous guest of the pod hilarious wonderful lisa gilroy made an instagram real video as marge simpson and had to make the video so so immediately that didn't didn't think to go out and get makeup so she put yellow mustard on her face and gave herself a chemical burn it's so bad it's so funny she sent us a picture she's the fun she's so fucking

funny so funny she's so funny and she sent us a picture after how me don't make the bomb it's so funny but she sent us a picture afterwards of her face just like blotchy and red and crazy because she truly gave herself a chemical burn via mustard but that's also not okay that mustard can do that kind of damage to you i mean you shouldn't put mustard all over your face should we eat it do we eat it too you know it's like vinegar in like it's like yeah you shouldn't put it on your face but she did so funny she's so funny man it was a real crazy choice anything for the art but this part of the movie is like very fun Again it's like picking up

It's like we're getting some 80s music She's putting on her makeup It's like okay something's about to happen Yeah like we see her agent We see a dude who is like making porno With her Where it's like oh we got a little crew going Okay something's up

And then we cut to a really rad nightclub where they're dancing. And, of course, Mr. Bacon is there. Mr. Bacon. I've never thought about how that's his name. His name is Bacon. That's his name, Mr. Bacon. Wait. God, sorry.

I thought there's so many tangents that I just can't not say. But, Emily, I think that you know this. But in second grade, we did a thing where we had to fill in the second half of idioms so it was like a book of I'll just say the one that I popped into my head because of this was out of the frying pan and then blank space and me a second grader fills it in and I wrote comes Mr. and Mrs. Bacon. That's a perfect, that's a perfect letterbox review for this. And out of the frying pan comes Mr. and Mrs. Bacon.

And I never realized that that's Kevin Bacon and Keira Sedgwick. That is so funny. I feel like that assignment is actually for elementary school teachers to just have a good laugh. It's very funny. There's no way in second grade you would know that. I'll try to find the book. What's it supposed to be? And Into the Friar. Into the Friar.

But Friar is also funny. Wait, out of the frying pan and Into the Friar. It just means from one bad situation into another type of thing. But into the fire would also be bad. It would also be bad. That's pretty bad. Yeah, it's, yeah. I feel like the thing where, I think one of the things we're worst at on this podcast is knowing idioms.

So it's so funny for you to bring that up. I truly never know any idioms. One of the things we're worse at. I don't know. They are hard. And you know what's really interesting? I remember being blown away by this when I sat back in here laughing

like a delayed response. I don't know how far behind the broadcast is but he's laughing at something he did like 30 seconds ago in other cultures and other languages they have different idioms I remember learning that and being like oh idioms are insane

these don't make any sense and just like culture to culture we've decided what they mean and then we forget them and we don't know them and we just say whatever is that like the thing about throwing a baby out of the bathwater? Yes.

Throw the baby out of the bathwater. It's like don't. Don't count your chickens until they've hatched. Okay. Can't fit a square peg in a round hole. Don't cry over spilled milk. Okay. What are the other don'ts? Who can say? Okay. Don't. Don't. Don't. Just don't. What are the other don'ts? Who can say? Don't. Don't.

Just don't. Where are the do idioms? Really? Yeah. Do throw the baby out with the bathwater. Get rid of that baby. See what happens. I don't know.

It could be fun. So much. A great way to get rid of a baby. Throw it out with the bathwater. Throw it out with the bathwater. Perfectly legal. God, literally, what's... perfectly legal god literally

what wait also I've been wanting to talk about something this entire podcast and I haven't said it I'd love to hear it but now I feel like I'm just gonna say it because why not this is really an unhinged thing that's happening but it's

our 5 year anniversary Henley what have you been wanting to say this whole two hours and 15 minutes? Real quick. You guys keep talking about the 80s. I keep being reminded of on my hellish airplane ride back to Newark, New Jersey. There was a man sitting catty-corner to me. Catty-corner. You might be familiar.

Catty-corner. Horizontal, vertical. Oh, see, I say kitty-corner. This is a great example. Are you kitty-corner? Kitty-corner, catty-corner. It's not kitty., see, I say kitty corner. This is a great example. Are you kitty corner? Kitty corner, catty corner. It's not kitty, it's catty. Catty.

Another one that I just remembered that I would say is nip it in the butt, which is wrong. It's nip it in the butt. I used to do that, and then I feel I learned it was bud like a year ago. Yeah, same. But honestly, nip it in the butt is funny. It's funny. Intensive purposes is what I used to say. So when I were just talking about this today, and this feels really like a weird simulation moment

that it is coming back around. Yeah. Whoa. But Henley, what? Kitty corner? Catty corner? So you know how you're on an airplane and everyone's screen is going

and you can't help but watch whatever they're watching? Yes. I love to watch movies on other people's screens. So for a solid like two and a half hours, I watched a documentary that this man was watching. I love to watch movies on other people's screens. So for a solid like two and a half hours, I watched a documentary that this man was watching and he was also half hours. It was a long time. He was so long flight. It was a really long documentary though. I know you're right. It's probably an hour and a half. Um, so he was also simultaneously, um, editing this really weird video of a doll and he was like editing the video of the doll and then also watching this documentary. What kind of doll?

It was a claymation doll. And she was like kind of sexy. But he was doing like lighting on it. Anyway, that's not the point of the story. The point of the story. I'm pretty intrigued. I'm pretty intrigued by that part though. Whoa. He was watching this documentary called Class Action Park. Do you guys know about this? Yes, I've seen it. Yes, I've seen it. Yes, I've watched it. Betsy, thank you.

Okay, I've never heard of it, never seen it before. I was just watching it, no audio whatsoever. Oh, Betsy, I can't wait for you to back me up on this. So it is about a water park. Okay, this man in the 1980s, the first Gordon Gekko, before Gordon Gekko existed, the first like Greedy's Good, the the first man to get kicked off of Wall Street, this man bought up two ski resorts in New Jersey and created fucking Action Park, a water park that was all rides designed from the man of a man who was one of the first

people to get kicked off of Wall Street. He had no idea what the fuck he was doing. Yeah. Deeply dangerous. Not tested by anyone. Run by like teenagers. Full teens running the entire park. And huge success.

Like everyone went. And lots of people have like horror stories. And then lots of people had like horror stories and then lots of people had deep injuries and then some people died. Oh my God. It's like a very upsetting. It's a very upsetting. Dying at a water park.

Can you believe this existed though? Can you believe it? It's wild. And there's like a lot of footage and stuff and they like, it's a, it's a cool documentary. It's nuts. Wait.

And so you learned all of this from watching another dude's thing cool documentary. It's nuts. Wait, and so you learned all this from watching another dude's thing? Yes. Well, you know more than me, and I watched it in my house. This is why I'm so glad, Betsy, you're here, who actually saw it, because I just witnessed it with my eyes. Not your ears. You put two and two together based on imagery? They tried to make a slide that I think had a loop-de-loop in it.

A water slide? They called it the cannonball, and it went straight down and went a full loop, full circle. This man drew it on a napkin. And then some people... Well, J.K. Rowling wrote Harry Potter on a napkin, so... And we should all be emulating J.K. And that's a napkin. So. And we should all be emulating JK. And that's a good lady. That's a good lady.

Okay. So then they tested the ride by throwing like. With a person? Teenagers. They gave them $100 and they put them down the ride. $100? $100. How many died?

And then no one died, but people came out with like teeth missing. And then when they broke open the ride, they found teeth in the fiberglass where they hit their teeth and they knocked out. And the whole park went on for several years and lots of people went. Lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of people went. It was like huge and kind of like the place to, they also had like one, just like the swimming hole or whatever, where they would just like let kids just go crazy

and like fly off of ropes and stuff. And they'd like get in fights and just like, it's wild. Everyone waiting in line would like scream at them. Yes. They would scream, pussy, pussy.

And somebody didn't want to like jump in. It's wild. They recreated it all with cartoons and so I saw a lot of it and Silas also unfortunately did see a lot of it. But it was really good. Wow. I'm glad I got to say that because I was thinking it the whole time and I didn't

know if it was going to be okay for me to say it. This is quite the review of like, I watched it on somebody else's airplane monitor. It's really good. Across the aisle from me and it was still good. That's incredible. I want to watch the full thing. It seemed really good. It's fascinating.

It's wild. And it's so 80s. Like, it's just so. Then it got shut down because I'm pretty sure someone died and they shut it down. Yeah, I think in the wave pool, right? Seems like. Some people died or something. Wave pools are surprisingly scary.

Yeah, I almost drowned in one in fourth grade. Yeah, it is actually like not. It's just scary. Not safe. Nasty. No. Nasty. Water parks are not safe at all.

Don't go there. They're nasty You know what else isn't safe? Hollywood Hollywood Hollywood So we're at the dance club So Bacon is following Maxine

They get this very cool strobe scene Which I feel like is a clock We're doing that a lot in horror movies now Where it's like we use strobe lights to to like mask what's happening where is anybody and kevin bacon clocks maxine he's trying to follow her like through the club but every time the lights show up he like doesn't know where she is he can't see her but he sees that she has like gone through the club into the bathroom so he's like yeah god and he follows her in there but we get the idea that she's got the upper hand right from the beginning.

Oh, yeah. She lured him here. She enters this scene fully prepared. She's putting on her war paint and is like, all right. It's so cool. So he's in the bathroom and he's like giving a speech of like, you know, I'm a criminal too. It's all good. And he's like kicking in the doors of each stall

and we see really gross toilets. These are nasty toilets. A lot of really awful toilets. Just upsetting toilets. Just really bad, really bad. So many nasty toilets. And he finally gets to the last stall thinking he's got her. Boom, kicks it in.

Another nasty poop-covered toilet. But then you see that she snuck out through the window. So he then runs outside. And I think he has his gun drawn and everything. And he sees Maxine standing in front of a car that we see as her agent, like, hanging out in the car. And she's standing in front of it just looking fucking cool. And what does he say? He says says some stuff i don't know he's i don't remember but he's basically like thinks he's got her but she's

cool as a cucumber and they're looking at each other and then a third guy that we one of the guys from the adult film set that we saw earlier like pops out of the back and like hits kevin bacon over the head with a crowbar, knocks him out. And it's a funny fall. We see the whole fall. Like he's on like a loading dock and he gets knocked out and it's a, it's a crazy funny,

just like face down fall in like a hop up. It's really funny. It got a big reaction when we saw it at the Vista, like laughter and a plot So then he comes Kevin Bacon comes to And he's all bloody and stuff He comes to and he's like

Handcuffed to the steering wheel of his car And he's like what And Maxine is there And he's like you got the devil In you And we there and he's like, you got the devil in you. And we see that he's in a car compactor. Oh shit. At like a junkyard.

She means business. Yes. She does. I'm sure she says cool stuff and I can't remember. She probably says cool stuff. I don't remember. But actually enough is cool. He says like, we can work like they start, they turn on the car

and her agents there too, Giancarlo and Susito is like, they're all watching. And two dogs. Two Dobermans. And he's like, we can work it out.

The car come back, just come in. It has the vibe of in Mandy where it's like he's trying to be cool at first and still maintain it and then at the end

he's like, I'll suck your dick. I'll do anything. I'll do anything. I'll do anything. Whatever you want, I'll suck your dick. I'll do anything. I'll do anything. Whatever you want to say, I'll tell you. But they don't relent. And they fucking squash him in a car crusher.

And like a fucking rain, like a waterfall of his blood and guts comes out the door. And the dogs go and lick dogs go in and eat it at least that would be pretty quick way to go it'd be pretty fast it's not the worst not the worst i mean really painful you would be dreading it for uh for a little while but the moment of death would probably be pretty quick. Do you think? I think so. I think you're just like crushed. I think it's the land version of the Titan Submersible.

Oh, you think it's that quick? It's all simultaneous. It would be the land version. The land version. So a little bit slower. But ultimately, still pretty fast oh yeah i think pretty fast probably yeah i guess i wouldn't choose it but i think it's probably

as far as a horror movie death goes it's over in you know less than a minute from when you start feeling pain to when you're dead is less than a minute. Oh, definitely less than a minute. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Great. Now I think she's like in the mode of like, we gotta squash it. And so she gets that address out and starts heading to Starlight Drive. Oh, yes. She remembers Lily Collins saying, I'm going to a party in the hills tonight.

And she like has that flashback and she thinks about Michelle Monaghan telling her you could stop the next girl getting killed. And she realizes she has the address. She remembers all these women telling her they're going to a party in the hills. And she's like, fuck, I know where all these deaths are happening.

I should go and deal with it. So yeah, she gets that address out and she goes to the hills. And the detectives are following her now and she drives up into the hills she takes one of those like little trolleys yeah the house the house itself has like a yeah a little like kind of fun trolley that takes her up like a ski lift almost like awesome it is cool is that real i't know, but it's cool. I don't know. Maybe in the 80s it was.

It was in the real 80s. It is the 80s. So the detectives are watching her do this and they're kind of just like, well, let's just like see what she's doing. Let's let her do this

on her own for a bit. Which feels nuts, right? It feels really crazy. Really crazy. Come on. I don't think detectives should do that. They sit in their car

like across the street from the house for a while while she goes inside by herself they're like maybe she'll die maybe she'll die maybe suspect her a little bit that they're like yeah she might be a part of this so yeah that makes sense but you know it's still not great but then we go in and we see who this person is. Henley, do you have any guesses? Okay. Is it from the movie X? Yes and no. I mean. Not really.

But. Sort of. I think it is more obvious in watching it perhaps than we have made it in this recap because we, I think, tried not to make it as obvious in this recap. But I will say in watching it, I was 100% certain who it was. I'll say I was 100% certain from the opening frame. Yeah, yeah. That's good.

I was only certain at this moment. Oh, really? I like elbowed Mano. I was like, I know who it is, man. Yeah. So I wish that I remembered X better. And this is a reminder to everyone listening that you should watch X and Pearl if you're going to watch this because you'll probably have a deeper enjoyment. Honestly, you would know, I think, from watching just this movie.

Oh, just this movie? Yeah, I think you could. I think you could. And it's okay if you don't because you didn't watch this movie. Yeah, it's okay. And so it's okay. It's okay. I just wanted to see it. I was personally

a little bummed because I would have loved for it to have been something different. Slightly less obvious. Yeah. It felt a little bit obvious. Okay, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. It's her daddy. It's her dad. It's her dada. Because we got that opening

footage of her dad being like, what do we always say? I will not accept a life I do not deserve. It's like, he's just the creepy evangelist guy. Because we hear that same video as she's walking into the house. We hear that video and see it. And then her dada's there and is like, hey, baby. Oh, shit. She hey baby oh shit she goes

oh she creeps in and she's like she has her gun out she's like creeping in trying to figure out who the fuck is here what's the deal and this is birth and I was like oh this is scary because it is like it's dark it's tense we don't know who's going to be where and she gets the top of the stairs and I think she does see that it's her dad and she sort

of like stumbles and goes to fall down the stairs she knocks into a suitcase and it to fall down the stairs. She knocks into a suitcase and it tumbles down the stairs and opens and it is Lily Collins head and body all chopped up in this suitcase. Doing the like scream. Yeah. It was awesome. It was

awesome. That's a good little reveal. Oh man. Okay. And her dad looks like the grandpa from King of the Hill. Oh I know exactly what you're talking about. Oh, my God. Yeah. Just taller. Just a little taller.

Just a little taller. That's so wrinkly. He looks spot on. I will confirm that he is not a hot dad nor a hot father. Oh, man. No. Not hot. He's an evangelical priest.

Yep. Yes. Yeah. Man. Yes. Just keeps happening over and over again, doesn't it? evangelical priest. Yes. It just keeps happening over and over again, doesn't it?

Does he chloroform her or does he just knock her out? He plastic bags her. He tosses a plastic She's looking down at Lily Collins' head and then he just throws a plastic bag over her head and starts like suffocating her.

She passes out and then comes to tied up to a palm tree. And a gorgeous pool. A really incredible pool. Really nice. Really nice pool. There are a bunch of weirdos in robes and stuff and filming her and her dad is there and is like, we're making a movie and you're the star baby like we're gonna perform an exorcism and uh because like the devil's gotten a hold of you yes and we'll prove that we can bring you back to god and you're gonna be a star yeah you always

wanted to be a star and now we're making you a star yes and then he like refers to all the other weirdos and roves and stuff that they have also lost children members to hollywood to hollywood and the devil because hollywood's evil like their kids became actors basically and they're really mad about it well if i find out my parents are in that something like that yeah we're like wait a minute oh okay i thought you guys were cool with this oh interesting all right okay um so he's like okay are we rolling and he like starts acting out like saying stuff from the bible and then like comes up to her and whispers to her like okay so like act the part really act the part like this is gonna be good

and he starts like screaming at her and then one of the detectives he comes in with his gun pulled and he's like everybody to the side and then one of the people in the robes has like a big old shotgun and pulls it out but then

gets shot by Michelle. And then it's kind of like, Oh God, what do we do? Shoot out. And then it's a shoot out. Big old shoot out. Oh yeah.

Around this pool. People are falling in the pool. Maxine is trying to get, she's like tied to this tree. She's trying to get herself free. She does have like a little switchblade, I think somewhere. Yes.

She's like trying to cut her robe while everyone's getting shot around her. Yes. Her dad gets shot and drops the, he was gonna brand her with the pentagram. And he drops the brand and then his priest robe catches on fire.

And so he's like running around on fire and then does a really funny like hop into the pool. A really funny hop. Like it looks so silly. Just a little like. And then there's still, yeah, this crazy shootout going. Maxine is getting loose.

The cops are firing, firing. And then her dad like escapes up the hill. And one cop is like, I'm going after him. And then the other one like kills everybody. Maxine gets pulled into the pool by one of these like people. And like she shoves her switchblade up his nose. It's nasty,

but cool. And then she gets out of the pool and she's like, I gotta go find find I gotta go follow them and find my dad and so she like climbs up the hill to the Hollywood sign they're right at the Hollywood sign they're just right

behind it when I was watching I was like this is still like a 45 minute hike it's a long it's far to get up there it's a long hike to get up there dudes but she gets up there and she hears like a gunshot go off and she runs up and then our dude detective he's been shot and he's like not looking good and so michelle detective is like here put pressure on his i'm going after your dad don't like stay with him stay with him, stay with him.

And he has a moment where he's like, I wanted to be an actor. And he, like, grabs the Hollywood sign and then dies. Oh, and she's grabbed a shotgun from, like, one of the robed people. And so she grabs her shotgun and runs and she's, like, sneaking along the Hollywood sign.

And then Michelle comes running out. She has like a cross stuck in her eye. Like we're guessing Maxine's dad stabbed her in the eye with a cross. And she was saying something and I couldn't understand. Like, I want to help you or something. I think she shot him and said something to that effect. Like, I got him. It's kind of chaotic, but it feels like she's that effect like I got him it's kind of

chaotic but it feels like she's saying I got it yeah cause then she falls down and rolls down the hill a little bit like oh man you're done for dude it's her last little moment of her and then Maxine

gets up to her dad who's like laying on the ground all bloody and stuff. And she's holding a shotgun. And then we have helicopters coming up being like, you're surrounded by LAPD. Put down the gun, Maxine. And she's just staring at her dad. And then, how does it start?

We see that. The screen, I think, goes all bright from the helicopter flash. And then it's like, yeah, cut to her. Premiere of Puritan 2. Premiere of Puritan 2. Everyone's, Maxine, Maxine, Maxine. Cut to she's being interviewed on a talk show.

And they're like, Maxine, oh my gosh. You had this crazy thing happen where your dad was there and now you're the biggest star. So strong. What advice would you give to up and coming actors? It's like everything's coming at Maxine. Selling her rights, like her life rights.

Oh yeah, they're gonna turn your life story into a movie. Yes. You know what's wild, you guys? I didn't realize this was just a dream. I thought it was really happening. Yeah. I mean... Oh, no! I thought it was happening. Okay, so she's just imagining

this. Uh-huh. Shit! She's imagining it. Shit! Shit! Oh, that makes sense. That's why it's so heightened and silly. Yes. I was like, this is funny. I don't know if this is how it works. That's so sad of course it's sad yes because then yeah we like come back to reality and she's has a shotgun aimed at her dad's head and the helicopters are saying like drop the gun drop the gun but she fucking blasts

her dad's head off and it explodes in a great fun 80s horror way like where it's funny like it's a funny explosion like it's awesome it's so funny and then then it oh that makes sense because then it says a month later yeah and she's which in this moment i was like how did she not get arrested for shooting somebody in the head with a shotgun? Because they literally say, like, drop the gun. Drop the gun. Like, there was no reason for her to shoot him in the head. It would be one thing if she shot him while nobody was around and she could easily claim, like, self-defense.

Like, obviously, he was killing people. He was, like, dying on the ground and she shot him with a shotgun. But it's fine. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think because it's the 80s. It's the 80s. It's a great point. It's the 80s. It's a great point. It's the 80s.

Anything goes. So kind of who cares? So now she's back on set and she's a hero. We're all clapping. Oh my God, she's been through so much. This is real now. This is real. This one's real.

Because also the director is like, how are you feeling with all of the, like everybody knows who you are so I guess it is known that she like stopped as a serial killer she wants to be famous she always wanted to be famous they do like on set a moment of silence for Lily Collins

who got fucking murdered who was supposed to be in this movie all of that stuff like did happen Elizabeth Debicki's like she was great but she's not as good as you. She was never going to make it beyond the franchise. Nothing like you. You're better.

You're going to be a bigger star anyways. Don't worry. You're better. You're better. And then they start shooting. She does do, sorry, real quick, because this was funny. They come back to her in her trailer, and she's doing cocaine and chopping

it up with her sag card oh yeah yeah very funny that's when she like got her sag it was a very fun experience seeing that in the vista theater in la where like everybody in the movie theater was like haha sag card haha and this is where she looks at herself and she says, you're a fucking movie star. Yes. She's made it. She's made it. She goes on to set and they start shooting. Yeah.

Her dismembered head. And it looks like a great movie. And that's the end of Maxine. That's the end of Maxine. Okay. Did you think we'd ever make it? I did. We already went twice as long as the movie Maxine.

We did Maxine twice. Have we heard if there's going to be a fourth? I think the plan was three. I think the plan was three. I think this is it. I think we're good with three too. Yeah, I think. I'll say too.

It's just a little side little anecdote means nothing. But Jack Black was in our showing of this movie. That was fun. That was fun. That's awesome. I'm bummed I missed him. I learned about it after. That's very cool.

It was fun. Well, I have freaking got to go to bed. I saw Henley losing steam right at the end there. Wait, no, we got to talk some more. Two and a half more hours, please. Come on. Forever. Should we start over again?

Okay, so it starts on a little nasty projector movie with a gross little girl dancing. Also, Tim just sat down in the downstairs bathroom and he sent me this picture. Oh, it's pacified. There it is. It's a pacifier. There it is. Bathroom. Wish me luck.

Wish me luck. I will say I thought this movie's very fun. I think the dad being the villain was disappointing for me. A little disappointing. But that said, Mia Goth is just

so, she is a fucking movie star. She is a movie star. She has it. And guess what? So is Kevin Bacon. Yeah. He's a fucking movie star. He's a fucking New Orleans. I'm a fucking movie star He's a fucking New Orleans
