Quick music News. Before I get to this scary movie talk.
Food Fighters released a brand new single this morning. It's
called Asking for a Friends. I'm gonna be playing it,
I believe, right at the top of my show, so
right at six o'clock if people want to hear it.
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Cool.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
They also drop some tour dates as well, but nothing
here in Texas, so we'll just keep our fingers crossed
and hope that they add more later on. They skip
us a lot, I know, but when they are here
it's pretty freaking awesome, so I think they'll be back. Okay,
So today is National Horror Movie Day Horror Movie Day,
and I heard Teresa ask this question yesterday. I thought
(01:05):
it was great, and I wanted to ask you guys
as well. What is one scene from a scary movie,
either when you were a kid, an adult, whatever, but
one scene that has stuck with you the most.
Speaker 4 (01:17):
I got one that immediately comes to mind, and it's
the original Halloween and that Michael Myers mask is so scary.
It's basically a William Shatner mask, and they took all
of the face makeup and stuff off of it, so
it's just white, and it's just so scary to see
somebody so stoic and emotionless and expressionless while they're murdering.
(01:38):
And there's a scene where Jamie Lee Curtis is like
hiding in a closet and Michael Myers is walking through
looking for and then Caesar in the closet and there's
like coat hangers hanging and he's like trying to stabber.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
And stuff like that.
Speaker 4 (01:50):
That that freaked me out then and freaks me out
to this day.
Speaker 5 (01:54):
That's good. That's a good one. What do you got tizzle?
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Remake of The Hills Have Eyes? The RV say, oh yeah, yeah,
And I don't watch horror movies now.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
I can't believe they even did. I remember thinking that.
I was like, wait, they're.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
Doing this terrible. I mean, it's scarred me for live.
Speaker 5 (02:12):
Yeah, So I went with the very first thing that
popped into my head, and then I realized there was
another scene in that movie that's probably more iconic for me,
but I think for a lot of us, at least
when I was here in Bennett's the stuff that you
see as a kid, and honestly, I don't watch horror
movies very very infrequently because of the stuff you saw
as a kid. Maybe that's it, k t The first
(02:32):
thing that popped into my head, and then I changed it.
But the first thing that popped into my head is
when the kid in the Shining is on the will
I say, oh, yeah, whatever that is, or that's a
will bit? What is a thing called a big wheel?
And he looks up and there's the ghost of the
two Twins. But honestly, when Jack takes the axe through
(02:54):
the door and sticks his face in.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
There and says, here's Johnny, Yeah, that's a comedy to me?
Is it kind?
Speaker 5 (03:02):
I mean you're sitting there saying that Kristen Bell and
Dak Shepherd aren't comedians and you.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Saved my whole life. Everyone's gone, here's Johnny. It's always
been like a thing, so when you see it, the
value of it in that moment has totally been demeaned.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Yeah what for you, kire Uh?
Speaker 2 (03:17):
Well, this one was from when I was an adult.
Actually this is actually a few years ago. I watched Hereditary,
which I am so I hate scary movies because of
what you guys said, like watching them as a kid,
I got scared as hell, couldn't sleep, and I'm like,
why do I do this to myself? I don't have
to do this to myself, okay, And then Mike sat
me down. It was like, let's watch Hereditary. Won't be
(03:37):
those screwy You'll be with me. There's a scene so
the family like gets possessed by spirits, right, and that's
the thing I just cannot deal with. And there's a
scene where the mom is like you can see her
in the background up on the wall, like in the
corner of the wall, kind of like a human spider,
just stuck there. And to this day, if Mike's not
there at night and I turned the lights off, I
(03:59):
will just like I can see her in the corner
and it just freaks me out and I hate it.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
What was the thing when we had the freak that
Sarroy was talking about watching a scary movie with the
door unlocked, a knife on the counter, and a homeless
hobo and somewhere in these then you have to have
the door open, the door open, and.
Speaker 2 (04:16):
That was the movie that we watch.
Speaker 4 (04:17):
Yeah, I think it was the hobo involved, yes person
and a knife out.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
In the door open homeless that homeless guy still comes
by apparently, and that's amazing. Scare the crap out of me.
Speaker 5 (04:29):
So that's good.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
I like this National Horror Movie Day, the Black Phone Movies,
which number two is coming out. The trailer for That's
the scariest thing I've seen is that the Ethan Hawk thing,
Ethan Hawk, the mask is terrifying. I know one of
the kids in that movie is from around here, but
that movie looks terrifying. Yeah, and I watched the first one.
I immediately thought of Jaws too. There's so many scenes
(04:51):
from Jaws, and that's a movie that's stayed with me.
But that's like even beyond a horror movie to me,
that's a cinematic masterpiece.
Speaker 5 (04:58):
I was going to ask you, I swear I was
gonna ask you, do you consider Jaws a horror movie?
Because I think I consider it a thriller. But it's
got all the ingredients of a quote unquote horror movie.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
Right, I think of Halloween and Friday the thirteen slash
or stuff, you know, stuff like that. Right, Yeah, all right,
there you have it. There is things. I'm sorry Christina's
Cookie Jar. Things Christina is tracking in her Cookie Jar.
Coming up next KT thinks one day humans will breathe
through their butts. We'll discuss next
It's time the pop the top heads. It's Christine's scoopy
