Thanks. Hopefully it's better than the last one. It's way, way, way better than the last one. Oh, good. Okay, I'm glad. I mean, I kind of knew Alan liked this already, but I was wondering if Katie would like it. See, I saw the killer tomatoes which has nothing to do with it but somehow in my head they're part of

the same universe. Sure. So this is very different the plot is very different right? I mean it's a monster chasing people but like there's no Soviets in the original. No no in this one yeah yeah that's all new. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Which I kind of, that's like the one thing I wasn't really too into in this remake. Yeah. I liked it better in the original, where it was just like a booger from outer space that goes crazy. Yeah, there's no real explanation for it in the original, right.

Yeah, and it just goes away when in the original right it just happens and it just yeah and it just goes away when they freeze it that makes sense no they don't they drop it in they drop it in a in the North Pole at the end yeah yeah yeah so that it stays frozen until now with global warning warming ready for another remake which they're doing anyway yeah oh for Christ sake I believe Samuel Jackson it's on board from the near remake maybe this will turn climate change deniers to the truth. Probably not their demographic. So Mike how familiar are you with this film? I love this movie. This is actually the first horror movie I ever saw on my own in the theater and I actually had my own in a theater.

And I actually had to beg my mother to let me go. I would have been 10 years old. I know. There was so many bucks in this movie. There was a very lax movie theater in Nutley the Franklin Theater. So she didn't buy your ticket So she didn't buy your ticket? Hmm? She didn't buy your ticket? She may have bought my ticket and then just left me. I don't really remember exactly because I was 10. Jesus. But I did, I

should I save this story for later? Because it does, this story coincides with a scene in the movie. Sure. It's your story. You tell it when you want to, Mike? I'll just. I I I I. I, I. I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I. I, I, I, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to get. She to get. She to get. She to. She to get. She to. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She, to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to toe toe toe didn't toe didn't toe toe toe. She didn't to to to to to to the scene in the movie. Sure. It's your story. You tell it when you want to, Mike. I'll just go now. So I begged her to let me go see this movie and she was like, she finally let me do it. But her one caveat was that I couldn't have any nightmares. As if that was something I could control. Oh, that's so sad. So I saw it and of course they had terrifying nightmares that night.

So the next morning I wake up, my mom was like, all right, well you had nightmares. So now it was punishment, you have to go and do the dishes as a chore. And I was like, all right. And I go up to the sink, full of red jello that's so awesome that is so awesome that's the you have to smoke this whole pack of cigarettes yeah basically your mom became she she went from the worst to the best parent in this story did you freak out what how did you feel when you saw the I freaked out until I realized it was Jello and then I laughed about it.

That's amazing. That makes me one of a kid just like a fuck with them, you know? Which is not the point. Not at all the point. I thought that was the only reason to have them. You have a good relationship with your mom? Yes. Okay, see, there're fine. Did your mom send you and your brother to Las Vegas to see Weirdale Yankovic? That's awesome. Well we would yeah, or were you already in Vegas?

We were already in Vegas and we happened to see Weird Al Yankovic while we were there. Yeah. The way I have it set up you, she flew you there in like a private jet. Someone's gotta see Weird Al. He's great. It's a very funny man. It's a truly. It's a th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the the th. th. the th. th. th. Yeah. the the the th. Yeah. Yeah. Someone. Someone. Someone.

I feel like somewhat ashamed saying that, but it's 100% true.

A lot of costumes. Yeah, yeah. He put on the fat suit for eating. So good. thii. to the the the to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be. to to be. to to be to be to to be the the to be to be the to be the the to be to be the tune. tune. tune. tune. to be. tune.

It. It. It. It. It. It. It. 1998. Wow. All right, well, so the blob. So being so familiar with this film, do you think you could do a quick, a quick wrap-up of it? And then we can dissect it from there? Yeah, I think so. It is the simplest story.

Meteor falls in this small town in Northern California that is a ski town waiting for snow. They haven't had some in a few years. And the meteor contains a booger monster that just eats everyone and gets bigger as it does it. Yeah, that's a good starting point, right? Yeah, yeah. It gets bigger. The bougar monster gets bigger when it eats people. And when you shoot guns at it.

There is a glaring continuity error, like right from the get go. gets bigger when it eats people. And when you shoot guns at it. There is a glaring continuity error, like right from the get-go, because somehow Kevin Dillon's face got melted by the blob before the blob even shows up. Oh, that's not nice. I thought he was cross-eyed. So, I mean, like, I have a lot of mean things to say about Kevin Dillon's

appearance in this film. I'll say my one, my one mean thing is that he looks like the uncanny Valley version of his brother. He looks like just slightly off from Matt Dillon. You're like, oh what's wrong with Dylan? What happened to Matt Dillon? But even his face notwithstanding, he looks absurd in this like he looks like an amateur wrestler. He's wearing a blouse for most most. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. He's, th. He's, th. He's, th. He's, th. He's, th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's like, thi. He's like, thin, thin, thin' thin' thi. He's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, he's like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, he's like, like, like, th. He's like, like, th. He's like, like, th. He's like, like, like, th. He's wearing a plowse for most of it. He's, oh God. His hair is banging though. Can we all agree on that? That's some dope-ass, 1988 hair. I guess.

I would have killed for that hair in 1988. It's very lush. It is very lush. I didn't think he was, I mean, I knew he was like the first build on a movie, but I thought the other guy was going to be our hero. Oh the handsome one. The handsome one. Oh wait, you know that's Donovan's son like the singer Summer Donovan? Seasons of the Witch? Yeah. How weird. Yeah and he's I own the thrown. Weird. Yeah. That's all I know about him. Is he in glory? Everybody's in glory. Is he in glory? Everybody's in glory. He has the thirty. th. the th. the th. the th. the th. the th. the the th. th. the the the th. the the th. the the th. th. th. the th. S so so so s. S so s. S so s. Sso. Sso. Some. Sso so s. S so s. Somer. Somer. Somer. Somer. Somer. Somer. Somer. Somer. Somer. S so so so so so s so s. S so so s. S so s. S so so so s so s so s so s.

S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. S. movie too. And it's so happened so early. Like this is the reverse of God Monster of Indian Flats where you're waiting for the monster to show up the whole time and just waiting for somebody to die. And this movie the monster shows

up and kills everybody you've met so far. Yeah, it's a bleak movie. I was like how are they gonna find more people to kill? Oh and then they kill a child a child a child a child a child a child a child a child. They the child. They they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they they their their th. th. thi. thi. thi. thi. th. th. th. thi. thi. thi.

Oh, and then they kill a child. They do. They're really. Yeah? Yeah. This movie was written, partially co-written. I guess you would call that, right? Not just partially written. I'll take the last half.

You do the rest of it by Frank Frank Darabot of a walking dead fame. Oh. He's the guy who did the Walking Dead for television. So he just recently got boring. Oh, shit. No, he was doing a bunch of Stephen King adaptations that are real boring too. Okay, good to know. He always added in him.

Yeah, although his adaptation on the mist is really good. I was going to say in the mist has the mist has the mist has the mist is really good. I was going to say in the mist has that kind of like really grumending which there's some like hints of that in this. Hmm. Like that scene where the waitress is in the phone booth is just makes me sad on so many levels. Yeah no they're they do a really good job of making you sort of care about the people they're about to kill. Yeah. Well, mostly for the women. The dude seemed to be pretty much straight across the board shit bags.

Uh, well, uh, Donovan Son, yeah, Donovan is pretty, like him and Shawnee Smith, the girl, I forget her character's name. But they both like, they are genuinely, yeah, Meg, they genuinely take care of that dude when he's, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, the the the their, uh, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, uh, uh, their, uh, uh, uh, the their, the, the, they. Yeah, they. Yeah, they. Yeah, they. Yeah, mostly, mostly, mostly, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, they, th. th. th. th. th. they, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the. the. the. thea. thea. thea. thea. the the the the the the the the th forget her character's name, but they both like, they are genuinely, yeah, Meg, they genuinely take care of that dude when he has the blob on his hand. They're like concerned about him, which did make me like them both and made me really bummed when he died, like right away. Yeah. It was a good death though.

You just don't expect like the football hero to die in the first. you know? Yeah. Yeah. That was the 80s, man. We were sticking it to you left and right. Fuck everybody. Everyone's gonna die. I guess so. And it's going to be the government's fault, it turns out.

I do like when the football player Paul, I think dies, the cops are coming out of the hospital and they're like, we called his parents. They haven't heard from them either. Do you know what I mean? Like, it's just, there's a lot of lines in this from, like, is anybody paying attention? Yeah, no, that was a really weird scene. Or, I mean, in the next scene, the girl's like, what do you think those lights at the hospital are? Well, they're probably ambulances. I don't know. I don't know.

I don? Yeah. Well I was also reading that I guess out of the 19 million dollars most of it went towards special effects I don't think they had like a there were many people looking over the script for continuity hours. But the acting was surprisingly good for the for that yeah and special effects were out of control. They were really good. This movie could not have made 19 million dollars. It had to have been a failure right. I don't the the the the the the the the the the the the th. Yeah. Yeah. I the the the the. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I the. I the. Yeah. Yeah. I the. Yeah. Yeah. the. the. Yeah. the. th. the. the. th. th. th. th. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. th. the. th. th. the. the. th. the. th. the. the. th. th. to. to. to. to. to. to. the. the. to. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th made $19 million. It had to have been a failure, right? I don't know. I don't know either. Well, I was going to say when Paul does die,

that first, like, really full-on blob death is really gross. It's shocking. There's something about the way that the layers of it, there's like a layer of slime, to, like multiple layers of sl, there's like a layer of slime, like multiple layers of slime over him and like it looks like there's tension the way it's like pulling. It's really gross. And the fact that he's staring into the eyes of the woman who he loved and dying while

she watches. It was pretty brutal. Yeah. Yeah. . That's a harsh loss. That was the end of the 80s horror. Like we weren't, you know, weren't doing too hot back then.

I don't think so. It was all slasher movies back then. Everybody wanted slasher movies. Yeah. Nobody wanted big monster movies. Jerks. Take that, me being a freshman in high school. Oh my god, I was four. I was in preschool.

In my day, we only like Slasher movies. Yeah. I must have seen this movie before, but I don't remember ever having seen it before. Before this? Before this? Yeah. And I've owned it for about two years. Oh, weird. It's on a, I bought one of those like four movie discs that had

a fright night this Christine and the seventh sign? Oh I don't know the seventh seal, whichever one's not the Birdman movie. The one with Demi Moore and the serial killer or something. Oh ghost. Yeah. Ghost that's the one. So they find the homeless dude finds the blob, right, and the thing, and it gets on his hand and then Brian Flagg brings him to the hospital where with Meg and the football player, Paul. And that's where it eats the football player, Paul. Yeah, after it eats the homeless man.

So that's where we are, right? Yeah. The homeless man's death was really gross too. They pull back the blanket and half of him is just gone? He's just a puddle? Just a puddle? Oh yeah. It's so gross. Oh yeah. I like that the R. the R in this movie is just for goor. Yeah. There's no boobs. There's. There's an there. there. R in the the the the the the the the r r r r r r r. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. no boobs. There's an attempted boob, and luckily that fucker got what he deserved. Yeah. What happened to her? Well, I did learn. Oh, sorry, go ahead. I think the blob is. I think the blob's in her?

Why? And then, because her face kind of. Because that happens later on in the movie too. Somebody like collapses with it inside of them. Oh yeah. How does it? I don't know how it doesn't. Between this and creep show too, though, I did learn the blobs hate sexual assault. It's a good thing. But they're also kind of victim blamers because the women always get it too. Well, I mean, it's just, yeah, it was still the 80s.

Or the mouths or whenever, yeah, people be shitty. Oh, I was gonna say that. The special effects in that scene are amazing too when her face collapses and like all the weird, like, tendrils come out. And it's also, I always thought it was awesome that it's not exactly the same color. Like some parts are really red and some parts are like a clear like bluish almost. It's really gross. Yeah, it is for a blob. It's got a lot of the personality.

There's a lot of gross going on in that blob. Yeah. Sometimes it seems to have hands. Sometimes it has, yeah, I don't know. Yeah, a lot of tendrils. They all kind of dick. They all kind of dicks. to be honest. Yeah, they're very fallic. At the end, when it comes up out of the manhole, it's totally a dick. Straight up a pocket, it's ridiculous.

It's just the sewer boner. Speaking of boners, there's the guy, the reverend. What is his deal? Because obviously he's setting up a sequel at the end, but he doesn't really drive the plot, but he's a pretty main character. Yeah. Why? Like, so that he can pick it up and take it out at the end, so that they could establish there was a reverend in town who doesn't like people fucking. He's played by Del Close, who, anybody who knows anything about improv improv.

He's a huge improv guy. He taught classes on improv comedy in Chicago, the Del Closed School. I actually looked, I was looking him up on Wikipedia and the people he's like taught are kind of insane, like Tina Faye, Amy Polar, like I think both like the Boulog, right? Yeah, or the Murray's. Yeah, most of Saturday Night Live came through him. He was also in Son of the Blob. Oh really? The sequel to the 50s one in the 70s. I think he's the only person that made it over. That's cool. Son of the Blob. What? Can you sum up Son of the Blob in like 50 words or less?

I actually haven't seen it in a very long time but it was a comedy. Oh cool. Like a straight-up comedy and I did they freeze the blob in an ice skating rink at the end. I remember that it's really weird. I love that. So weird. It's so weird. It's so dumb that it just freezes and dies, but anyway. It seems like it should be resistant to that, you know. Like it's, well I think it's I think in son of the blob what happens is that they drop the blob in the the Arctic at the end of the first movie and I think there's an Arctic worker that accidentally gets someone on his shoe and brings it back with him. Great. That makes sense.

And so it thaws and it comes alive. So I don't think it kills it, it just freezes it. Like you got to keep it frozen. They do say at the end of this movie, we've got to get to the ice house. Whatever that is. I do want to talk about what happens to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the to to to to the to happen to to to to the to the to the to to to the to the to to to to to be to be to be the to be the the the the thoes. thoes. thoes. thoes. It's, the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thoes. It is. I is. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was.a. I was.a.a.a.a.a.a.a.auuucoooskosuxxxxxxauoskoskosuosuoskosuoskoskos. It just. It just. It just. It's.the other movie, but we'll wait until we get close to that. So I do want to mention that I really liked the little romantic exchange between the cop and the woman who, the waitress. Yeah. It was really sweet.

It was really nice to just see like a little sweet thing that wasn't like, blah. Why was she hiding? I think she was just being coy. Oh, I thi, also involved with George, the dishwasher. Oh, but I didn't know. George was pretty hunky with that hairnet. Yeah. And he had a, he had a masturbatory plunging technique.

That was, that caused me to write the note, tense plunging scene. I wrote, plunging is so fun. I really like to plunge. Yeah, it's like the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thuuuuuiting that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like that's like thuiting that's like thuiting thuoge was like that's that's thu. thu. that's thu, that's thuing is that's that's that's that's that's that's that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's was. that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's like. th. th. th. th. th. th. theuceucearnoooomearnooooooooooooooooooooooooogea. theat. theat. theat. theat. I really like to plunge. It's so satisfying, you know. Yeah, it's like the amount of plumbing that I can actually handle. Yeah, that's as far as I can get. Yeah, that was very sweet. I think about that whenever I have to plunge something. I'm like, I'm not plunging as hand job that you're not that into. Oh, come on, God damn it.

Sorry, I could cut that. No, I like that. I keep that in. His death, though, getting sucked down that drain and then the pipes. Holy shit, so amazing. Well, that was what I had the nightmare about, which is what led to the sink blob at my house. That part was like... Your mom's a dick.

The way it like... In the best possible way. Yeah. The way it like pops out of the sink and then just like, as it like, it doesn't just like like grab his face like there's layers of it like piling up onto itself yeah yeah and then you see his head like just like crush as it pulls him in the sink it's so gross and terrified me it spurts the blood spurts which I really like I'm so used to movies like pulling like the camera turning away when like the grossest shit's about to happen and this one's this one's this one's this one's this one's the the the the the the the the the one's the one's the one's the one's the one's the one's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. they. they. the they. the the the they. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. they. It's is is like is like is like is the the the the the the te is te is is te is is like like like like like like is is the the tea. they. they. they. the they. the the the the the the the camera turning away when like the grossest shit's about to happen and this one's like nah we're gonna hang out let's just see what happens here yeah they really do show even when they kill the child at the end like

normally a child death will happen off screen no one wants to see a child death but he like comes up out of the water's face is all fucked up like like a 10 year old it was really fucked up yeah I couldn't believe it. I've done. That kid I had named headphone kid. Headphone kid?

Yeah, because he always had the headphones on. I think I have the note headphone kid is a dick. Oh yeah, because he was wearing them during the screening of Garden Tool Massacre. Was it awesome. I want to see that with a double feature of Groundhog Day part seven from Monster Squad. They do look like the same movie. Yeah, they have the same movie. They do. Oh just dripped Elmer's glue. And it looks so bad. I didn't even notice that. Really?

Maybe because I've watched it a million times. Yeah. I wanted the health department to come in and look at their freezing technique because I thought there was something off about it. Like everything was freezer burning. Did I mention I have the note that Kevin Dillon looks like he'd smell of jacar noir? And not necessarily even having put that perfume on himself. It's just his scent.

It's just what? I have a note about how all Meg wears there are colored sweaters. She's going on this first date and she's, her mom's like, you can wear my cashmere sweater. And I was like, oh, that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's a that's cashmere sweater and I was like oh that's nice and then she puts it on and I'm like what is that what are you doing it's like the color of cat vomit her style is very bad she does have the mullet I'm putting it's ever existed her she has like an eight foot mullet it's really good is it's short in the front yeah yeah it's not in the front? Yeah. Oh. Yeah. It's not just bangs. It's like short in the front. There's a lot going on. It's not as bad as Kevin Dillon's mullet. I mean her fashion

isn't bad as bad as Kevin Dillon's either. He's got that leather jacket with those little like silver lapel things. Which when they're in the freezer he gives to her because she's cold and then in the next scene they're the the the next the next the next the next the next they're they're the their the their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their their th. th. the. the. the. the. the. th is th is th is th is th is th as bad is th as bad is th as bad is th as bad is their their their their their their their their their their their their th is. th is. th is. th is. th is. the is the is the is the is the is thea. thea. thea. thea' thea' thea' thea anymore. Also, everybody keeps talking about how hot it is and he's wearing a leather jacket for the entire movie. Fashion over function. Yeah. You know how Kevin Dillon do? Do you know how Kevin Dillon do? I guess I do? Do we mention that Pete from Twin Peaks is the doctor? And how exciting that was for me? Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I forgot. I forgot about. I forgot about. I forgot about. I forgot about. I forgot about they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. their. their. their. their. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. their. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I. I. I. I. I. I. I their. I'm. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I.

Like they're most maybe that's why the acting is so good is because everybody's like a character actor from things. Yeah. It's like a ton of like Bill Mosley's in it too at some point as like one of the white suit guys. Yeah I know I know I know I know that wait that's from like various TV acting things. Same thing with the sheriff he's been in the misst actually. Oh yeah. the old dude. the the hea. He hea. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He's he. He was in he. He was in he. He was in he. He was in he. He was in he. He was in the the he. He was in the the the the he. He was in he's been the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th.

And Walking Dead, I guess. Oh shit, he's the old dude from Walking Dead. Oh, dude. Yeah. The old dude who drives the camper. And that's how he put in the walkie dead too. Fuck that show. A lot of people have picked on the ball though. What old dude snore? That was amazing. Oh, man. Okay, so can we talk about what the blob is. Yeah. And what it's doing. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the old. Yeah. the old. Yeah. the old. Yeah. the old. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. that's. Yeah. Yeah. that's. the old. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. that's. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. that. that. that. that. It. that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. that. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. man. Okay, so can we talk about what the blob is and what it's doing there?

Mike, do you want to take this? Oh, God. So I guess there is some exposition where like Kevin Dillon is stealthily sneaking around some government agents that don't notice him. And he overhears them saying that it was a virus that was put in space and they expected something like this to happen. And so it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's it's their their their their their their their their their th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing their thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thing thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi to the doing to to the the to doing theing theing theing theing theing theing theing the the the thi thi th him. And he overhears them saying that it was a virus that was put in space and they expected something like this to happen. And so it's like kind of on purpose. And they're gonna weaponize it and send it to Russia.

I just don't. Like is the idea that it would eat all of Russia and then like. But just I don't understand it. Also I felt like a lot of these thi th th th th th th th th thians. I the scenes. I the scenes. I th th th to the borders. No, it's not going to go anywhere else. I just don't understand it. Also, I felt like a lot of these scenes with the meteorite hitting the earth and the old guy finding it and then the government officials like clearing them out and putting them in quarantine. Like, the X files totally ripped them. Like, they were very X files scenes.

I feel like Chris Carter saw his movie and he was like, oh yeah, that's what we're gonna do. I don't know why. So when they were running through the woods, Katie, did you get a little bit of a without warning feel? I have blocked without warning. No, it was not like that though because she was using her legs to run and not just falling in the meat of spaghetti. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I and not just falling in the ground made up spaghetti. I wish the blob had thrown fried eggs at people

when I was trying to kill them. That's pretty good. I have a note that says sick burn about leftovers. Leftovers? Because Kevin Dillon's being addicted to the dudes in the like plastic suits and he's like, these guys from glad are just telling me how to to take care of my my my my my to to to to to to to to to to to to to the eggs their their their their their their their their their their to their to their to to to to to to to to their eggs to to their eggs eggs the eggs the eggs to the to to the the the th. I th. I th. I th. I th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. I the the the the the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I'm the. I'm thea. I'm thea. I'm to to to to to thea. to thea. I'm thea. I'm the. I'm the. I'm theto the dudes in the like plastic suits and he's like, these guys from Glad are just telling me how to take care of my leftovers. Oh yeah. Sick leftovers burn, bro. That must have been like an ad campaign of the time. You know what I mean? Like it must have been relevant in some way.

I almost forgot that I wanted to talk about when Kevin Dillon licks that dude's face. That was so weird. It was a good move, man. Do you think he, that was scripted, or do you think he was like, this is what my character would do? Do you think it was a choice? I think that was a choice. You think so? Yeah, Kevin, he looks like a liquor. Just lick you to be a new. Like a lizard.

All the Dillins do it actually. Yeah, but when Matt does it, you're cool with it. Yeah. It's not a cross-eye. Also, see, he take his bike into the the towar later? How does it, how does he get his bike into the towar? There was a ramp going up to the sewer. And then why does he he he he he he he he he th he th he th he th he th he th th th th th the the the thi thi to the sewer. And then why does he drive his bike into the blob? Why did he think that would work?

Or no, I'm sorry, he doesn't drive his bike into the blob. He drives, um, the truck into the blob. Yeah. A lot, it seems like they're not understanding how. I mean, she just gets up and starts firing that. No amount of firing a gun to th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. tho. tha. tho. thi. th. thr-n. tha. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. tha. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. to. thr. thr. thr. thotally loses it. It did seem really weird that he drove the truck right into the blob. Because it was working. He was doing pretty well. He was freezing it and yeah it was working and then he was just like, all right cool. And like he flips over and ruins everything. Yeah, but luckily the truck, we'll just open this up now. The truck was cram packed with a storm burst. So when the truck exploded, a snowstorm burst it out of it, because that's what happens in trucks. That's not like liquid nitrogen? Yeah, it's a snowstorm. Is that what that was? Is that how

like ski resorts make snow? Is that what it the mountain. At least that's what I assume from watching this film. It made sense to drive it right into the blob. If you have a magical truck that could steal storms why not drive it directly into the blob. Stans to a reason. Also the guy who owned that's that. Oh no, he's not, that was the mechanic that was like, I told you it was gonna snow. Oh, yeah, that's perfect. Oh, I guess he didn't own it. He was the mechanic.

He just wanted to get a dig in at the end. Yeah. He was underutilized in this movie. He was delightful. Yeah, I would have liked him to have played Kevin Dillon's character. I would have liked anyone but Kevin Dillon to play Kevin Dillon's character. Why do you guys like Kevin Dillon? I don't know. I don't think I do. I think I pity him.

He's gonna listen, guys. I tag him on Twitter. I think Kevin Dillon has a computer? No, he's been very successful, right? He was on that show with the guy where they want the thing. That I assume everyone in the show smells like D'Kardin' War. I think some of them are like flassy, though. On entourage? Isn't that one guy? I don't know.

I've never seen it. I don't know why I'm defending him. I don't know why I movie, but I'm trying to think if we're missing any of their cool deaths that would sell people. It bazook is a truck. The movie theater scene is really, I think that's probably the scariest scene. You know what I mean? It's really effective. Well actually the part right before, like the first death, the Hobbs, the projectionist,

the yo-yo. When he dies and he's on the ceiling and the yo-yo comes down, that part is amazing and gross. It's a really nice touch. Did anybody else think that the guy who is running up to check the ACI was th? was started up the steps because I got really stoked that Ed Harris. Did it look quite Ed Harris? Like what a weird cameo by Ed Harris.

All right Frank Jarabunt, I'll be the AC checking guy. But that's all I'm doing in this movie. I wonder if it was like Ted Harris. There was... You got me with Ted Harris. There was a thing reference in there for you, Alan. I don't know if you saw that. It's like a split second when they show the vent with no, with like no air conditioning coming out of it. There's, uh, there's a bunch of movie stills like thumbtacked tothe wall, and one of them is the splitting face from the thing. Oh, no, I didn't notice that.

I guess I'm not a fan of the thing, it turns out. Done and done. The dude that worked on, the special effects for this, I don't know if you worked on the thing, but on is pretty intense. Tony Gardner? He's done like a ton of stuff. Yeah. Like bad grandpa and hairspray. Army of darkness. Shallow Howe? He's really knocking it out of the park.

You're right, Mike. Did I just say there's something about Mary on there? So he's worked with both Dillans. Oh, wow. He doubled dipped on the Dillon. I would ask a question. I have time for one more. How did they make all these special effects? What are, how did, what is this? There's a lot of KY jelly. I think that it was like, it looked like the,

it looked like the blob itself, especially at the end when it was like fucking it looked like it was like rubber with air going in and out of it. That's at least what I thought. Yeah, I have no idea. I don't know, it was cool. Yeah, it gave it like, it might have, oh no, I was just going to say it was an actual blob. Those are the only thing I could think. Well, what I liked about it is like, even with, and this is probably because I have probably because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I was because I I don't know how they're doing this. This is really neat and it gave it like that otherworldly feel and the fact that it was purple because purple just denotes from somewhere else. Right.

I did like that it kind of started off a clear color and then as soon as like when the old man tries to cut off his own arm and gets the blood, it like from that point on it gets like pinker and more red and like purples, like once it starts eating people, which I thought was pretty cool. I couldn't figure out if it was eating his blood or if it was trying to keep him alive so it could consume all of him. I was like, what is it doing here? Is it like sealing the wound or? Yeah, it's, how sentie, I guess the blob is very the blood is the blood is the blood is the blood is the blood is the blood is the blood is very the blood is very the blood is very the blood is the blood is very the blood is very the blood is the blood is very the blood is very the blood is very the blood is very the blood is very the blood is very the blood is very. I was very. I is the blood. I was the blood is the blood is the blood. I was the blood. I was the blood. I was the blood. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I was. I? I. I? I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. I. It. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like. It's like is very sentient. It is, it makes decisions. That's weird. Because yeah, definitely made decisions because I'm going to wait inside this lady until this purvo tries to touch her boob. And then I'm going to bust out of here.

Like, that's, I'm sorry. I'm having a lot of talked about the party trunk which was amazing The party drunk was but rather like slapdash it looked like it would fall over on a good turn I didn't understand how things were anchored I did like a box full of class rings though Because there were like 400 class rings were there. I didn't even notice that yes he keeps like the implication being that he gives them all to these girls to you know because they're the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication they they the implication they the implication the implication they the implication they the implication they they the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication they the implication the implication they the implication the implication they the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the implication the they the implication they the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. they. the implication. the the the the the the then they're his, as he says. Yeah, so he goes outside to make her another drink. What does it, I have camera what he's making. Cherry coolers. Because I was like I'm gonna figure out what that is, I'm gonna make it. Then he puts a strawberry in. He did. Without taking the stem off either, which is just

crue. So while he was outside making the drinks in the trunk, the blob went in and totally filled her up full of blob. I think so. That's what it seemed like. And then when he tried to, you know, sexually assault her while she thought she was passed out, the blob ate him, which was great. And but at first it's like all over facing. Yeah. Yeah, that was a good effect. I like that Terry Gardner. He does some sick shit. All right, all right. I'm gonna defend Terry Gardner because he worked on Return of Living Dead. He's the guy that did the half corpse. Oh really? He worked on aliens. Harry and the Henderson's Lost Boys. That's a lot of good movies. Girl is in the mist. And then things get pretty rough after that. Nightbreed Swamp Thing. Oh, I love Smo Thing. Well, the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV the TV to the TV to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to be to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to the the the the the te te te te te te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. te. toe. tothings get pretty rough after that. Nightbreed, Swamp Thing.

Oh, I love Swamp Thing though. Well, the TV series. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about. Oh really? Yeah, it was on the USA Network right after a murder she wrike? Oh yeah, definitely. You know what does hold up that murder she right? That's all, carry on. All right, anything else that we missed?

I have a million notes that I have not brought up but they're all just absurd like. Let's just start knocking them out. Oh well we didn't, did we actually talk about the kid's death? The headphone kid? So headphone kid and Meg? Is it? Yeah, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. that that that that's that's that's all that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all. That's all. That's all. That's all. That's all. That's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's all. that's all. that's all. that's all. that's all. that's all. that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all, th. that's all, that's all, that's all, th. that's all, th. that's all, that's all, that's all, that's all. that's's talk about it. Let's let's talk about it. So headphone kid and Meg is it? Yeah and her brother Kevin. And her brother Kevin, not Dylan, but her brother, have to escape the movie theater where the two kids have snuck in to see Garden Tool Massacre. That guy behind them is like totally ruining the whole movie. Yeah. That guy that look like Will Old him he he him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him him the the the the the the the he him. He he him. He the the he him. He the he him. He the the the he. He's th. He's th. He's th. He's the the th. He's th. He's th. He's thoom. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He. He's. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's t. He's the. He's. is like totally ruining the whole movie. They hate that guy. The guy that looked like Will Oldham. He was a real dick. He gets his.

He does get his. He's the first, well, the second they get his in the theater. So they have to escape from the blah that's terror rise in the theater. This theater one I'm much say earlier to to to to to to say, I, I, I, I, I, I, to say, to say, to say, to say, to say, to say, is, is, is much, is much, is much, is much, is much, is much, to say, to say, is much, is much, is much, the their, is much, is much, is much scarier, is a their, is a their, he was their, he was their, he their, he their, he their, he their, he their, he the the the the the the the the the the th. He, is is the th. He, is th. He, is the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the th. He. He is much, is much, is much, is much, is a their, is a much, their, is a much, their, is much, their, their, their, their, their, their, their, is much then everybody runs out. Yeah. And so they escape into the sewer, because that's what you do, right? Where else would you go? Yeah, it was the 80s. Everybody went into the sewer. The goonies, these guys.

Do you need to turtle? Chud. I guess Chud started in the sewer. Yeah, it's true, Alligator. Oh, God. I do love Alligator. I brought it up because you always asked, you're like, you guys should do Alligator. You guys should do Alligator. Oh, good.

Anybody seen Alligator but you too? Yeah. I was in a room with a hundred people that watched it on a movie that on screen. That's weird. That's a tha the the tha tha tha thuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thu thu thu thu thu thu thu thu that's thu that's thu thu. I thatu. I was that to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to to too too too too too. I too. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I th. I tho. I tho. I tho. I to. I too. I too. I too. I think I was in a tent with Mike while that movie was on. That's very true. That's pretty true. So yeah, they go into the sewer and then they're running away and the blob shows up. I did actually, I do love when, as corny as it was when his jacket gets caught on the door, that scene is pretty tense. Yeah, like like th, like th, like th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, the, th, thi th, thi, thi, the the thi, thi, thi, the, the, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thu, thu, thu, thu, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thin, thi, theeeea, thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, thi, that scene is pretty tense. Like when they're trying to get the zipper undone and the door starts bulging and the rivets

start like firing out of the door because the blob is pushing on it so hard. That was pretty amazing. I did really like that. Yeah, that was probably the only part of the movie where I was actually like, you know what I mean? Like are they going to get away? That I just felt pure joy, pure glee. The zipper thing reminds me that everything in this movie is set up. Like when he puts his jacket on initially, he's like, mm-mm, can't get the zipper up. And like, oh, I haven't had snow in days. Luckily, nothing's going to happen that it would involve snow and saving the town. So anyway, let's move on to that. Everything is just set up in the beginning. Yeah, so they go into the sewer. They've run around in the sewer for quite a while. Yeah. She falls in the water, she's gonna get a

terrible infection from that because you can't just put your head in the water in a sewer and be okay. You can't. So they're climbing out this ladder which goes to I guess a manhole and the fucking blob. Yeah. But he comes like running back out of the water mid-I to kill. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. to kill. to kill. to kill. to kill. to. the the to. the the to. the the the the the the the the the the their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. their. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. She. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.. Yeah.. I. So.. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. So. I. So. So. So. So. So. I. So. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, but he comes like running back out of the water mid-kill. I thought he would just go under and that would be it as children deaths tend to go. No he had to come out looking like a silly putty skull coming at you. I was trying to actually kind of looks like the dude from Robocop when he gets melted who is the sheriff that gets his face licked. Oh, Oh, that's full circle. Boom It's all coming around. He also looks like Chuckie in Child's Play 2 when he's getting melted. Oh, my favorite movie.

I was trying to think of another movie where you see a child die like that. Like actually, a child death happens on screen and I was having really hard time with it. I talked to our mutual friend Andy Wheeler, who works in Hollywood. He worked on House of the Devil and Cheap Thrills, but he was, we were roommates when he was going to school and he told me they laid rules out for them. It was like, I don't know if their rules or MPA guidelines, like you can't kill dogs on screen or I think pets in general and you can't kill children on screen are two of the things you can't do because it's like raises red flags and that might have been one of the reasons that it got it got an R. Oh wow. For like yeah but the thing is another movie where you see a dog die on screen. Yeah they shoot the dog it's a mercy killing but they shoot the dog, it's a mercy killing, but they still shoot the dog on screen. You never usually see the child or animal die on screen.

It's real weird. Yeah. There's a Korean film called The Uninvited. And there's a scene where a truc's backing down the street and a toddlar is sitting in the middle of the street playing. Who left that truck just keeps back and down, and like, all, well, the camera's gonna pull away. Camera's gonna pull away, camera's gonna just runs right over the fucking king. Like, oh my God. Oh my God.

It's really, brutal. I have to say that that- I think that's the only thing I remember about that movie. I'm sorry. No, no, not at all. to their mom who's a really very nice person. He's like sneaked them into this movie theater. I don't know. No, not at all. He's like, check out the body on the blonde.

Oh yeah, he does get a little three-week. That made me make the note headphones kid as a toa's creep. Yeah, everybody in this movie is every dude, except maybe Paul. Paul seemed alright. That's a good guy. Yeah, all right, Paul. So guys, are we ready to move on? Let's do it. To the ratings phase? Yeah. Okay, good. Okay, I'm in.

Yeah, I'm in. Who wants to go first? Mike, this is your movie. I think because of, uh I have such fond memories of this movie, like the first movie I saw in a theater like by myself and subsequent torture by my parents, and then, um... I do, I just love, the special effects are amazing. Like, that's basically what I watch horror movies for is I want to see monsters and like really gross stuff and it's like in such abundance here and I'm gonna give it a nine. Nice.

I know that's high but no that's awesome. I agree with you I don't think that's high at all I this movie was a really fun for being like a really gory movie it's super fun like there's no it's like not realistic enough to be upsetting the way that like some gore can get. It's so absurd but also like it's a plot that sort of makes sense like we're gonna they're gonna send it to the Soviets I don't know I loved it. I loved every minute of it I'm also gonna give it a nine. Yeah that's awesome. Nice. Yeah I think it could have been a really like bleak and mildly disturbing film but the fact that it is is is it is it is it is it is it is it is th. It is th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi thi the thi the thi thi. thi thi thi the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi thi thi thi thi thi the the the thi. thi. thi. th. th. the th. the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. thi. theeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat thooooo a giant booger from space that's killing everyone makes it like pretty mellow. But it's still scary, it's still a scary monster.

I love that. I'm gonna give it an eight and a half. I was totally surprised about how much I like this movie. I've, I didn't think I was gonna like it. What, like, what, like, what, like, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it, it, like, like, it, like, like, it, it, like, like, like, like, it, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, it, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, th, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, th, th, th, th, th, th, th... th. th. th. to, to, to, to, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, I, just, yeah, I think, I think, I mean, knowing that he's on entourage and assuming he's just actually that human being. Sorry, Kevin Dillon. You might be really nice guy. Eh, don't apologize to Kevin Dillon. See if you're apologies for someone who matters. But no, eight and a half.

This was a really fun movie. I would highly recommend people see this, like. Oh, totally. If you haven't seen this, you're missing out. Yeah, do a double feature with waxwork. Dude, Siberia is so cold. You couldn't say, it wouldn't do anything if you send it to Russia. Like, that's true. Mike, let's not start picking this one tha tha thiiiia thia. Do I need to adjust my rating? This plot point.

Oh, can I say one more thing that I really liked? When the guy, the sort of head of, I don't know, U.S. government doctor squad? Dr. Meadows? When the blob fills his suit and then fills the face mask of his helmet, that was so good. This is really misplaced where I just said this. No, no, it is, I mean, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, I think, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, it, the th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. Can, th. Can, th. Can, th. Can, th. Can, th. Can, th. Can, th. Can, th. th. th. th. th. th. th. to. to. to. to. th. to. th. th. th. is really misplaced where I just said this. No, no, it is. I mean I think it it speaks well of the special effects that like you still want to be like, oh but well there was this other thing. There were a lot of things I feel liked thi likedue in te. the micrown. Well when the mic mentioned the telephone booths. that. the, the, th is, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, it's. the. It's. the, it's. the, it's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It's. It. It's. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It. It's. It. th. th. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. the. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. the. the. It speaks, I. It speaks liking each other and then he's like he says I'm just worried about a friend right before he leaves the station so you know the last thing he was doing was going to check on her and she calls him and then sees his like

half-digested body in the blob before it eats her. It's so sad. Yeah. The moral is never fall in love. Yeah, it's always gonna let you down. It's gonna get you killed I don't know that that's the moral This movie doesn't have a moral. It is a big booger from space. I think the moral is America's fucking it up. You know what I mean? I do also like that uh Meg and Kevin Dillon don't like fall in love at the end. They hug. I thought they were gonna make out. Yeah, they. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, th. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. Yeah, that. I that. I don't that. I don't that. I don't that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's that's the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the. I the. I the. I the. I the. I that's the and Kevin Dillon don't like fall in love at the end. They hug. I thought they were going to make out. They don't make out. They just hug. I thought that was great. I was like cool. Yeah, no one would make out with him. Even if he could save them from the blob. Cool realism. Poor Kevin Dillon. What is that?

So Mike, before we let you go. Tell us about us about some of the awesome stuff that you have going on, you're doing like a zine imprint now and tell us about that stuff. Yeah, I have a, I've been calling it my zine label. I had basically been roping artists who I like into doing zines of like based on literature. So I just did one for Jean Di Angelo. She did, I guess she's did one for Gene D'Angelo. She did, I guess she's my partner, Gene D'Angeloish, and like, there's no reason to like not say that. She, hers is based on the work of Nikolai Gogol.

Oh, cool. Who's like this Russian, Ukrainian author, who, a night on Bald Mountain, like that, Fantasia is based on his work, a lot of witches and demons and stuff, and then coming up on October 16th, an artist named Sam Himer is going to do a version of Legend of Sleepy Hollow for Halloween. Where can people find those? You can find them on 7th Church Ministries. WordPress.com, all the information there. And then I do a blog called Yog Blogsoft

illustrating every monster HVee Lovecraft has ever mentioned. And all the zines, like all the monsters are released in zines called Eustro Obscurum. And you can find those on the blog and at Seven Church Ministries. Plug your Instagram and that stuff too. Yeah, it's, uh, illustro underscore obscure them on Instagram. Mike's stuff is amazing. I'm sure you guys, if you've nerded around on the internet and looked at any Lovecraft stuff or just horror art.

That's a hard thing to say, horror art. It's because you say horror. Yeah, rural juror. Mike stuff is fantastic and you should definitely check it out and jeans art is amazing so you should definitely try and track down a copy of that zine. I know you do really limited runs on those like yeah yeah because they're hard to put together. Yeah. What you be doing like represses of them later on your z. Yeah there will be I'm thinking about doing like a first year where I do reprints of everything that came out

this year because I also did one for Alan Brown that was all M.R. James Stories and James Quigley illustrated a bunch of demons from the Goatia earlier this year so I might just do the first years worth of zines like in a package. That's awesome. Sam's is going th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th is going is going is going is going. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. th. thi. thi. th. thi. thi. th. th. th.
