(00:44):
What's going on, everybody? Welcome to big dumb monsters.
I'm Chris. And I make dumb old citizens
reference. Oh, I'm Nick.
I'm Nick. And this week we are getting let
down by a movie that should havebeen way better than it turned
out to be. Nothing.
It was bad, you know, We're not angry.

(01:06):
We're not upset. We're just disappointed.
Yeah, you should have been way better.
And we blood. We thought it was better.
We thought this was a better movie.
I was like hyped to watch it again.
And then as I'm watching it, I'mlike, what the fuck?
Yeah. But anyway, we're, we, we're
pretty harsh, but it's not as bad as as we as we make it out

(01:26):
to be, I think. It's just got a.
It just should have been way better for again for the raw
materials. Everything that's attached to
this movie dictates it being a better movie.
And it just doesn't pay off. Anyway, we'll let you decide as
you listen to us discuss innocent blood on big dumb
monsters. Revenge Week Part 2.

(01:49):
Bye. Here we are.

(02:30):
Howdy, howdy. It's Monday.
It is Monday. Your microphone is nowhere near
your face. Nope, not even remotely close to
being on microphone. Like I thought mine was like too
far away but it was like. You know what it is?
I can't. I have to move it when I do
research and I forget to put it back most of the time.
Holy shit, buddy. You're right there.
Yeah. There's a dog under the table.

(02:51):
Yeah, gonna be tuning in. Right where the heater is.
Right on top of the heater. Yeah, yeah.
No, we're, it's Monday. We we've watched a movie for the
second time. Yeah.
Yeah. Because again, it is revenge
month. Yep.
Where we're taking revenge really on ourselves.
We didn't really think, think itthrough.

(03:12):
It just sounded cool. Yeah, but it's fine because
like, they're none of them were shit movies.
Yeah, no, they're all good movies that we fucked up the
recording of. Yeah, when we did shows, all of
them, I believe predate streaming except Dracula, 'cause
I think Dracula got fucked. I actually know this.
And Dracula I think got fucked up by us.

(03:33):
Streaming trying to stream. On the old computer, yeah, yeah,
Yep. So I think that's why we lost
these I. Think they were our first 2
streaming episodes. Yeah, yeah.
But they if you were, if you were watching at the time, it
was just like a second of us talking and then in like 10
seconds of us frozen like this and then a second of us talking.
Yeah. Listen, you got to start
somewhere, all right? But we once again are watching

(03:57):
innocent blood. I I dig this movie.
I like this time through. I I really saw the flaws in it.
Like I think I see the things that keep this from getting to
be a much better, much like morewidely talked about movie

(04:17):
because like all the ingredientsare there, man.
Like the fucking cast of this movie is amazing.
I mean like the set up of it is amazing.
There is just something in the execution that just doesn't.
I can I can boil it down to two things for me.
It's. Too long.

(04:37):
Yes, definitely. And the jokes are hacky.
Yes, I think it goes off the rails somewhere in the middle of
Act 2. Like, once, once Gennaro and the
and what's her name Marie take off for that hotel, the movie
story just hits a fucking wall. Yeah.

(04:58):
Like, it just gets boring. And then like, when they finally
do come back, it's just like, I guess, you know, it wasn't worth
the wait. You know the.
Resolution like the I this is going to sound like a harsh term
and like I don't appreciate the movie or I don't like the movie,

(05:18):
but that's not true. I I I like the movie.
I don't love the movie, but the juice is not worth the squeeze.
Shout out to Robert Loggia. Oh.
Shit. Yeah.
That was good. I just didn't even.
Catch it? I wouldn't go that far.
I mean, like, I would say it's worth a watch, but it's not

(05:40):
going to be your favorite movie.No.
Like it's something you maybe watch every couple of years.
Just like, yeah, you know what? That's good.
Because it's something differentand I appreciate that it's
different and it's it's like it's a decent mix of like horror
movie and like gangster genre movie.

(06:00):
But like neither one of them is strong enough and the comedy
doesn't land. Like it's John Landis trying to
do the same formula that he usedfor American Werewolf.
But like, that ain't it. Not this one.
Yeah. Yeah.
Like the, like, 'cause the, the,the comedy in that worked with

(06:25):
the story worked like, like it's, it's, it's just like,
almost like a copycat version ofthat trying, like trying that
pace. Yeah.
Like, let's get a horror movie, put a little cool twist in it,
and then make it funny. See, like where that movie gets
it right though is it's quick, it's right to the fucking point,
and the comedy does hit. Where is this like if this does

(06:46):
not? The comedy is also appropriate.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is.
He's going to start barking. Yeah, motherfucker.
There it is. Yeah.
All right, hold on. I'll be right back.
All right, yeah, No, it the comedy just doesn't hit like it
does in American Werewolf. It is to like Nick said, it just

(07:06):
doesn't go far enough in the wayof a vampire movie.
It doesn't go far enough in the way of a mob movie and like it's
just the, the end result is justlike it's kind of bland.
It just, it needs a little spice, a little something to
bring it to the next level and it's just not there.
That's the thing though is like if if you describe this movie on
paper, sounds fucking awesome. Yeah, it's sort of rattling off

(07:27):
the cast, yeah, but yeah. So you go like, OK, it's a
vampire movie, but it's not justvampires, right?
Like it's, it's a mob movie too.And you're like, oh, cool, sick
twist. Like, you don't really get those
two genres mixed up. Yeah, Yeah.
But then you go like, and it's going to have jokes.

(07:51):
All right? Is it going to execute on those
jokes really, really well? No.
Like. Yeah, that is a complete waste
of Angela Bassett. Yes.
Yeah, she's in this movie for like a minute maybe.
More or less, yeah. Just to, like, yell for five
seconds, yeah. It like it's just it's it's it's

(08:17):
disappointing, not in that like it's disappointing movie,
because it kind of is. It's disappointing and how much
potential is fucking squandered because this could have been
like, amazing. Yeah.
And you know what's fucking crazy?
Because like the first time we watched this, I remember both of
us really, really enjoying it. Yeah.
But I think I think we were justcaught off guard by how
different it was and not really catching like the not shitty

(08:40):
qualities of it, but like the the stuff that's just like not
great. Yeah, you know, like like the
the crazy vampire voice with thecontacts.
Don't love that the. Contacts like.
Bad effects. Yeah, like there's a couple of
scenes where they look cool, butwhere they miss, they miss huge

(09:02):
hard because you could tell the contacts are out of whack.
So like it looks like the vampires have like gecko cock
eyes like fucking like. A blue eyes 1 blue this way, one
blue that way, yeah. Yeah, it's just fucking oh, man.
It's just, it's just, it's sad how much like this doesn't like
this doesn't hit. Yeah, yeah, like it's.

(09:25):
And even starts off like really good too like it just.
It's like a legit mob movie. Yeah, and it just runs out of
steam. Like, I think what it is like,
the vampire isn't like she's underpowered.
I think like, it's too easy for her to get injured.
Like that's why they have to, like, run and hide for half the
movie where just nothing happenswhen they go to a hotel except

(09:47):
they fuck. Like, OK, great.
Like you could have done that inPittsburgh.
Who wants to fuck in Pittsburgh?Well, people, that's got to be a
sticker. Ridiculous.

(10:12):
Yeah. I mean, like, it's a
disappointing movie with shiningmoments.
Yeah, 'cause I'm not, I'm not upset that I watched it again.
Is this cool shit? The practical effects fucking
rule. They fucking rule.
Yeah, like when, when there's like the burning scenes, like

(10:36):
when Don Rickles fucking blows us up, Like it all looks
awesome. Yeah, even like when Robert Loja
at the end is like still when he's on fire, just screaming and
like you see, like his skin likecracking and stuff.
Yeah, looks. Great.
And like the gore effects are decent.
Like it's like all the pieces are there, but there's just like
nothing holding it together. Yeah, I think like one or maybe

(11:00):
even two more like action set pieces in that back like half of
the movie would really like pickthis up.
Yeah, because I guess it's. On the chase movie for some
reason. Yeah, yeah, as soon as they run
away, it just, I'm like I said, you know, I'm I'm looking doing
shit on the computer and like trying not to.
How much snap did you play? Not much, yeah.

(11:23):
Not none, but not much. Yeah.
Jesus Christ. I want this to be so much
better. Yeah, and like, I'll watch it
again, maybe. Yeah, for sure.
But like, I'm not going to rush to it.

(11:45):
I want to say I gave this an 8. I'm not ready to go to the the
rating just. No, I have no idea what rated
it. I want to say I gave it like an
8 and like watching it I'm like Jesus Christ how the fuck did I
go with this high on that? I think we were just stunned by
how different it was. Yeah, yeah.
Which is great. Like that's, I want that like, I
want, I want a movie to like, besurprising, like in a good way.

(12:09):
I want to be like, entertained in a way I haven't been
entertained before. You know, like mix up genres.
Do it like fucking yeah. Give me a fucking horror
western. Give me a horror mob movie.
Give me like. Yeah, I'm thinking like, you
know, would have almost. I think what would have almost
made this better, I think is if she if she dies like after of

(12:34):
you know, after like maybe we'reas she's trying to escape after
she kills Michelle because like she really has nothing to do
until the end of the movie. I think it'd be a better movie
if, like, she's out of the picture and the rest of the
movie is just like, OK, now, youknow, the head of the family's a
vampire and he starts making other, like, you know, mafia

(12:56):
guys, vampires. But then they start, you know,
all turning on each other. And like, that's the movie I
think I want to see as opposed to what we got.
Yeah, and then, you know, your, your, your main protagonist
isn't Marie anymore. Like it, it changes to.
Genaro. Genaro Yeah, yeah.

(13:17):
So now instead of it being like the both of them running and
hiding and then eventually just coming back, having the to come
back, now he's going after him as a like a revenge plot.
You know, like, yeah, I don't know way.
Better movie? Fuck yeah.
God damn it. Yeah.

(13:38):
Well, to be fair, like when the movie, when this was probably
being written like John Landis was probably tied up, you know,
with other litigators. Yeah.
Litigation. John, multiple murderer Landis.
That's all. I have listed in the credits.

(14:00):
Put it in later, oh Lord. Yeah, I, yeah, it's just like
none of it, none of it is strongenough to pull it like up to

(14:21):
really good. Yeah, like this honestly could
have been a like a this could beright up there with An American
Werewolf in London. Like it could have been.
It has the legs to do it, it just doesn't get there for some
reason. Yeah, it's, I think it's just a
weak story. It's just weak storytelling.
Yeah. And it's really unfortunate
because like the fucking, the pedigree of everybody involved

(14:46):
in this movie says, on paper, this should be a fucking this.
Should be a classic. It should be a classic, but it
just does not deliver on anything.
Well, no, not anything. The effect because it's not a
bad movie, it's just not a greatmovie.
For what? For what the raw materials are
for it, yeah. I, and I think that's what's the

(15:07):
most disappointing thing is likebecause I don't hate the movie.
Like I, I need to like reiteratelike not a bad movie, not a bad
movie, not a bad movie. It's just not the movie we could
have gotten, and that's disappointing as shit,
especially with everybody in it like.

(15:28):
This cast is so good, we're gonna have to it's.
Literally The Sopranos. Yeah, yeah, we're gonna have to
blow through the better known ascause like look at that.
We have people lined up. Yeah, yeah, 'cause I like
there's people I'm trying to cut, but like these people are,
the names are just like so fucking big in this movie.
Yeah, dude, I gotta tell you. OK so IMDb is up and the cover

(15:50):
of the movie is is up. Yeah.
I looked at that like VHS cover for years.
Years. Could've swore that was a picnic
table and not a table. Somebody dead on it years I
looked at that fucking cover. Vampire out for a picnic in

(16:12):
Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh picnic?
Sounds like it. It's what?
Sexual. Maneuver the Urban Dictionary.
Yeah, it's when you shit into a box and then you fuck on the
box, you know? Yeah dude, I, I, I could have

(16:32):
sworn that was a fucking picnic basket next to her face on it
for years cuz I never like picked it up and looked at it.
I just like walked past it. Oh.
Holy vey. Yeah, God damn it, I'm getting

(16:57):
angry thinking about like my rating has actually gone down as
we've been talking about this. Yeah, and like I'm still above
the line of pro watch ability. Oh, for sure.
Yeah, it just. Again, I like the movie, I'm
just being super critical because it should have been so
much better. Yeah, Yep.
Did John Landis write this? I.
Don't believe so, Michael Wolk. I mean, maybe that's the

(17:20):
problem. Let's see, what else.
Did Landis write American Werewolf?
Believe so. Well, we have a segment
dedicated to that. Yeah, but we're talking about
the in the moment, you motherfucker.
This is the only thing he wrote.Jesus.
That's weird. Yeah, but he also hasn't done a

(17:43):
whole lot, so. You love the new adventures of
Robot Johnson. No, he was a surgeon in this
anywho. Fuck that shit.

(18:07):
What was up with all the cameos in this fucking movie though?
They're like a lot of people just show.
I don't know if it's just because of like the location.
I mean, you get you're in Pittsburgh.
I mean, I think you're contractually obligated to hire
Tom Savini. Yeah, he shows up, of course.
The fucking Savini's in it. Frank Oz is in it.

(18:28):
He's a Landis like, you know, regular.
Yeah, fucking Sam Raimi's in it.I didn't even notice Sam Raimi.
He's the dude that owns the fucking butcher shop.
You know when he goes into the and he's like laying, laying in
the freezer? Yeah, yeah.
That yeah, that's fucking Sam Raimi.

(18:55):
Yeah man, keep harping on it, but this is just fucking all
kind of a let down. I do like that they make fun of
their fucking Frank Sinatra obsession.
Like that's that's kind of a funny joke.
Like that one lands. Yeah, yeah.
Oh man. Only been to Pittsburgh once,
but I did have a fun time in that city.

(19:17):
Yeah. Let's see Elvis Costello.
I sat in the what's the fucking a throw away for that?
That was pretty badass. Fuck you, Sam.
You know who didn't cameo? Victoria Morrow.

(19:39):
Yeah, both apply. Oh, that's a good one.
And a bad one, Yeah, yeah. Oh Lord.
Yeah. You can see the aforementioned

(20:02):
legal issues that John Landis was.
Facing something about a helicopter I think.
Literally if you go with them, one of the top things is what
was the cause of the death of big part.
He caught a flight. This is going to be one of our
longest running jokes. The death of Victoria Morrow.
Yeah. For sure.

(20:24):
God, we are terrible people. The worst part is two other
people die. That's why he's John multiple
murderer Landis the. Big Morrow gets all this thing,
you know. Well, he's the most famous
person to die. The only person whose name we
can probably pronounce, They're not.
Horrible. No.
Yeah. What are they?

(20:46):
Micah Dingley and Renee Shinyiche.
All right, all right. Not American, all right.
Oh, stop. He's up.
Stephen Miller. Yeah, can't cancel me.

(21:12):
Please have it have my Kingdom. You know what I do love though?
For real? Anytime like the vampires bite
someone and kill like they're they're cover saturated in

(21:33):
fucking blood. You know, like the way it would
kind of actually happen. Yeah, yeah.
Not just like a little like little blood hanging off the the
corner of the mouth. Like like you, you feasted on
somebody's fucking neck. It's going to spray.
Yeah. The ridiculous nature of her

(21:54):
pulling out a sawed off shotgun out of her shopping bag and then
blowing Tony's fucking head off though.
Fun, very fun. What else?
What else? I don't like that they expose
him being an undercover cop so God damn soon in this movie.

(22:15):
Yeah, that that could have, theycould have held off on that.
Yeah, just like a little little longer, yeah.
But then like, it doesn't make any fucking sense though,
because, like, why would he? So he's undercover, He's trying
to solve or get in with these guys.
And then like, you know, get ridof the whole ring.
Why is he going to do a publicity photo like right out

(22:39):
of the fucking gate here? Yeah, yeah.
That's stupid. That, to me, tells me you're an
idiot. Yeah, yeah, you should be
nowhere near this crime scene. Yeah.
It breaks up a good point. What if a plane crashes in your

(22:59):
wings housing? But William Shatner is also.
On the plane, yes. Isn't getting mentioned in the
press. Multiple reasons.
Oh, it's kind of like when Farrah Fawcett died and then
like Michael Jackson died like acouple hours later.
Like. Everybody just forgotten that

(23:21):
she died like. I did.
I forgot that she died. You just reminded me.
Well. I never knew to be honest.
I assume. Look how young and supple Luis
Guzman is in this movie. Yeah.

(23:44):
Angela Bassett still looks the same.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Guzman is like.
He's thin in the face. Yeah, he's half the size.
Like, you know, not just in body, but in the end of the
head. To be fair, Sam Eric Carr very

(24:09):
important from KISS. Freddie Mercury.
Just like pop culture icon. Like amazing drummer, pop
culture icon. You know, there's a script in
like an Inglorious Basterds typestory where they end up killing
each other. I think it's some like crazy

(24:30):
feud. Eric Carr and Freddie Mercury.
I mean, I'd watch it man. You ready to throw some ratings
down on this son bitch? Yeah, I think we can throw throw

(24:52):
some ratings on this. Yeah.
It. Hold on, hold on.
I want to punch her in her fucking penguin's hat.
This is still like, this is likeMario Lemieux fucking like
Penguin's era. Yeah.
Fucking yeah. No, I like judging this really,

(25:16):
really harshly. I'm going to go.
I'm going to give it a six. Yeah, Yeah.
I think that's a fair rating. Yeah, I'm, I'm in the ballpark.
I'm like 55. Yeah, I, I can see it.
I can see it. I don't know how we, I, I, we

(25:38):
had to have gone lower than an eight way.
I had to have gone lower than that.
There's no fucking way I gave this an 8.
I don't know man, I think. Maybe A7 if I was being really
generous. Yeah, we were probably on the
sevens, but like, I think we were just so enamoured with the
fact that it's just such a different movie that like, we

(26:02):
couldn't get the past. We couldn't get past the fact
that it was just like, not amazing.
Yeah, yeah. That's that feels about right.
Yeah, I do kind of like Tom Savini as a shitty paparazzo.
You. Know in a very limited role,
yeah. Tom Savini is best.
Yeah, show up, do some stuff, drop a line of dialogue, get the

(26:26):
fuck. Out.
Yeah. All right, let's move on to some
trivia then. Have to bother you with trivia?

(26:48):
You gave us an extra point. I don't believe that those
mosquito bite things count as knockers, my man.
That's fair. You know what's really awesome
is I went through my emails because you remember I used to

(27:09):
e-mail these trivia facts to myself.
Yeah, didn't have to do any goddamn research this week.
You motherfucker. OK.
Let's see. Technology is thwarting me right
now. Hold on.

(27:33):
Go to where I'm putting you. Jesus Christ.
Yeah. Go to your home.
Although this entire movie is about vampires, the word vampire
itself is never actually used. Yeah, now that I think about it.

(27:55):
This has an unused score composed by Elmer Bernstein.
Up until Bernstein's score was rejected, it was his ninth and
last collaboration with directorJohn Landis, who started to work
with him on National Lampoon's Animal House.
I was like, how do you, how do you score an entire movie?

(28:15):
And then they go Nah. You know what?
Never mind. Yeah.
That sounds depressing because that's a lot of work.
That's like a lot of work. Let's see.
The distributors retitled this film A French Vampire in America

(28:36):
for international release without informing director John
Landis, angering him and causingsome confusion when the film was
promoted outside the US. That's a terrible fucking title.
Yeah, we were discussing that before we were recording.
Oh really? And also to be fair, I from what
I hear, not that hard to like enrage John Landis.
Yeah, yeah, but don't make him mad because kill.

(29:03):
Fucking helicopter. Can you imagine?
Can you imagine these days? Like John Landis just gets real
pissed. He goes, I will fucking end you.
And you're like, I know you've done it before.

(29:23):
Ask Victoria Morrow's daughter. Oh, Jesus.
Because you can't ask him because he's dead.
Yeah, Phantom of the Rue Morgue from 1954 is playing on the
television during the morgue scenes when Micelli Michelli,

(29:43):
whatever the fuck his name is, is first brought in, and again
when he makes his frenzied exit.Just wondering what movie that
was, The one with the gorilla I believe, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. It's like a sequel to Murders
and the Rue Morgue. Let's see one scene featuring a
television set that's showing Alfred Hitchcock's cameo in

(30:04):
Strangers on a Train. That one point during the film.
Jacko fucking dumb name is watching Sir Christopher Lee and
Peter Cushing's dramatic final confrontation in Horror of
Dracula. That I noticed.
TuneIn next week for Horror of Dracula.

(30:28):
Dracula from 1931, with Bela Lugosi's playing on the
television during the scene. Yeah, like I was as I was
watching, as I was watching this.
Feeling like I was getting tiredof it.
Well is there a fucking channel in Pittsburgh that just plays
horror movies all the time? Like.
I mean, maybe there was. Yeah, kind of cool, yeah.

(30:50):
It gets rid of the crushing weight of having to live in
Pittsburgh. Yeah.
Let's see, John Landis said thatpreview audiences had trouble
understanding and Para Laud's French accent, but he refused to
dub her. Is that he's Para Para Laud?
Para laud or para yod, I don't know.

(31:12):
Probably, I don't know, para load of shit.
Filming wrapped up on April 7th,1992.
Landis previewed the film, then made about 15 to 20 minutes of
cuts based on the preview and handed in the cut.
The MPAA wanted to give the filman NC 17 rating, so 2 more
minutes were cut to give it an R.

(31:34):
And I'm guessing it was from thefucking scene in the hotel.
Probably, yeah. Probably.
He could have kept cutting scenes too like.
Yeah, like a good 20 minutes worth of shit does not need to
be in this movie. Also that food he was dumping
out looked fucking disgusting. It's mussels.
It's basically a vegetable. Mussels and garlic, yeah.

(31:58):
That's we were, we were talking like we were watching this.
It was like, Oh no, she's allergic to garlic.
Why is she going after the Italians?
There's a flaw in your plan. Oh.
Shit. This is our final trivia fact

(32:18):
for the evening. The original cast when director.
The original cast, when directorJack Shoulder was attached to
the film, included Viggo Mortensen and as Jack Gennaro
and Miguel Ferrer as Lenny. Who the fuck was Lenny?

(32:42):
We have a. We have a whole. 2nd that's
coming up, Yeah, but he's the second.
Oh, David Preval. Yeah, the second in charge.
Like not to say he wasn't sayinghe was like the head goon
basically. He's a chauffeur.
That's what he was. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Second.
Credit, yeah. That's it.

(33:02):
All right. We will move on to the better
known as. All.
Right, we are going to fucking tear through these because we
got a lot to get through. We'll start off with director

(33:23):
John Landis, who we have talked about before because he is the
director of the absolute fuckingclassic, previously rated A10 by
myself on this show. I think I gave it A995.
An American Werewolf in London, truly one of my favorite movies.
And no, aside from that, he's directed some fucking banger

(33:46):
movies and some shit. Yeah, well.
Yeah, yeah, and some shit. Fucking Blues Brothers is a 10
out of 10. Yes, but Blues Brothers 2000 is
not. That's like A.
That's like A7. It's like A7.
Blues Brothers is one of those movies.
Like I would, it's not quite on like a Jaws level where I can
just watch it anytime I could, but like 9 out of 10 times I'm

(34:09):
throwing it on orange whip, orange whip, 3 orange whips.
I hate Illinois Nazis. I had that poster on my wall
when I was in high school. The like the two of them, like
sitting on the hood of the car and it's got the fucking speech.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, you know, with it's dark. 1/2 a tank

(34:32):
of gas. It's dark, we're wearing
sunglasses. Yeah, half a tank of gas, a full
pack of cigarettes. Let's see, back to John Landis
later. Career is not quite banging out
the bangers that he used to. In fact the well he did a

(34:53):
Masters of Horror. 2 episodes ofMasters of Horror.
It was 2005 and 2006. He directed a Don Rickles
documentary in 2007. Three episodes of Psych, Burke
and Hare with Simon Pegg and Andy Serkis I believe.

(35:15):
Yep, that was 2010. His brothers 2000 was 1998.
He directed, I think a couple ofyeah, that Michael Jackson
history, like greatest hits thing back in the late 90s.

(35:36):
Yeah, because he did Thriller. Yeah, yeah, he did the Stupids
with Tom Arnold in 1996. I.
Remember when that came out and I was actually excited to see it
because I didn't know any betterbecause I was 11?
Jesus. He directed 17 episodes of that
show. Dream On.
That was on HBO. If you were a teen boy at the

(35:59):
time, you were definitely checking that out because there
was titties all over that show. Yeah.
Oh yeah. Yeah.
One of the not bangers he directed Beverly Hills Cop 3.
Not the best of the series. I liked it as a kid because

(36:22):
there were things in it for kids.
Yeah, yeah, I was 15 when I saw that.
And like, yeah, like, this is pretty cool.
And then like, yeah, it's not. This was 1992.
He also directed a bunch of the films for the Dangerous album
too. He did the black or white video,

(36:44):
the one that was set in Egypt. I don't know if he did more than
that. I don't.
Think so. Yeah, yeah, black or white,
there it is. No, black or white wasn't the
one set in Egypt. That was I remember the time
black or white was the one wherelike it's people.
'S, yeah, it's everybody's. Everybody was like morphing,
yeah. Is this the one with Sylvester

(37:06):
Stallone? Yes it is.
He directed Oscar with SylvesterStallone in 1991.
Another fucking classic. He directed Coming to America.
7.1 seems a little low for that movie.
That's very low. Yeah, 'cause that's easy.
And 9:00. Yeah, that is a classic.

(37:30):
I was 9 when that came out. So yeah, that that was yeah.
He directed the Three Amigos in 1986, did a couple.
Of also deserves to be higher than a 6.5.
Yeah I didn't even notice that but yeah directed.
It's like 3 videos for B.B. King.

(37:54):
I saw B.B. King live once.
I have not and I never will. I'm.
Pretty sure he's dead now. Yeah, Yeah.
Let's see. No involvement by John Lane this
Bible. Yeah, his hands are clean of
that one. Unrelated.
His old age? Any helicopters?

(38:17):
Although where was he when Stevie Ray Vaughan died?
Don't you do this to me. I love Stevie Ray Vaughan.
The sky is crying. Indeed, he defected.
He directed the thriller short film Oh That Was 1983.

(38:43):
Would Texas flood my liver? He directed.
I'm like, which one did he direct in Twilight Zone?
The Moon. Time out the one where the guy
died. The one that ends abruptly for

(39:05):
some reason. Fuck trading places is so good.
Yeah. Again, criminally low 7.
Five. That was 1983.
So he banged out Trading Places,killed Victoria Morrow and

(39:26):
Thriller all in the same year. That's a busy year.
Yeah, 3. Murders and 3 movies.
It's a hell of a fucking year. Sorry, what was the year?

(39:47):
And of course, his fucking streak of movies is amazing.
What the what the fuck is wrong with IMDb?
All of these are criminally low rated.
Blues Brothers 79. No, not even fucking close.
That's a 10. American Werewolf in London 10.

(40:08):
Arguably A10, Yeah, OK. Animal House.
As far as comedies, I'm going togo.
I'm going to go 95 for comedy. Yeah, before it's like it's
Animal House is actually not that great of a fucking movie.
It was just hold your fucking tongue.
Hold on. It was.
It's like revolutionary for its time and it's very, very

(40:31):
important. It's just not that good of a
movie. Why?
We have two scales on. Regrettable reviews, but we do
impact and watchability. Yeah.
Kentucky Fried Movie at six, four, right?
I mean, it's got some. It's got some.
I've never seen it. It's like a sketch movie.
I've never seen schlock either. Plenty of schlong though, huh?

(40:53):
But yeah, I mean, like, the dudehas directed some classics.
Yeah, off to a few. People, it's every, it's every
couple of years you're going, oh, that's amazing.
Oh, that's amazing. And Perry odd para laud
whatever. As far as like her biggest

(41:15):
roles, it's probably either this.
It's La Femme Nikita. I was just the other one would
be La Femme Nikita in 1990. That's weird to believe.
It's only two years before this movie.
Yeah, she was of course Nikita and that she is going to be in
the upcoming Ballerina, the JohnWick spin off.

(41:36):
Was she in the John Wick shit before that?
No, she was not. As far as I went through this
earlier, I didn't see it anyway.I have to go back because I
like. For me it always felt like
diminishing returns with the John Wick movies, but everyone
was telling me like. 4 was pretty fucking good.
Yeah, like I skipped out on fourreally.

(41:56):
So like I have to go back and see it.
I kind of don't want to, but like the Valerie, well, it's
good. So like I kind of want the
complete picture. Yeah, the I mean, she was in The
Man in the Iron Mask in 98 with Leonardo DiCaprio.
Aside from that, it's really like a bunch of French stuff.

(42:19):
Map of the Human Heart was another like critically
acclaimed movie that was 92 as well.
Other than that, it is all French.
So we're going to move on Up next.
There's one thing we can't standhere.
It's the. God damn French.
Up next, Anthony Lepaglia, another dude who's just in a ton

(42:41):
of shit. Yeah, as far as pop culture.
Empire Records. Empire Records.
Yeah, he's Joe from Empire Records.
The the record shop owner. He's in a staggering amount of
shit. Like, was he Pearl?
Nope. Different Pearl.

(43:02):
That's a different Pearl. He's an Annabelle creation.
That was one of the last notablethings he was in.
What's funny is like I'm just soused to hearing his name that I
like never was able to like put his face to it.
He is just kind of a general dude.
Yeah, let's see Happy feet two. He was the voice of Lex Luthor,

(43:25):
an All Star Superman. I never saw the animated one but
that fucking story is like. The comic is awesome.
Yeah, amazing. It's just like, you fucking
yeah. Let's let's throw together
literally All Stars Grant Morrison and Frank quietly and
give him a Superman book. Like who's going to write
Superman better than fucking Graham Morrison?
Yeah, yeah. That it really is like that.

(43:49):
Arguably the best Superman story.
Let's see, Happy Feet 1. He was in eight episodes of
Frasier. He was in Analyze That, the
sequel to analyze this. Not sure we needed that.
He played Al Capone and wrote toPerdition in 2002.

(44:13):
That's a good ass movie. Yeah.
Yeah, that's a movie ass movie. That is a movie ass movie, one
of the few times Tom Hanks has played a villain or a bad guy
basically, but he still, he's like, he's like the protagonist.
He's like the flawed good guy. Yeah, yeah, the Salton Sea.

(44:35):
Let's see sweet and low down. That's a Woody Allen movie.
Murder 1. He was in 18 episodes of that
and then looks like 6 episodes of a spin off miniseries.
That was an ABC like procedural show.
Yeah. I don't recall that one.
Let's see, Empire Records was 30years ago, yeah.

(44:58):
Fuck you. That is gross 1995.
It's Rex Manning Day. Oh my God, I was old enough to
have bought the fucking. CDE for the soundtrack.
Amazing soundtrack. Yeah, yeah.

(45:24):
Anyway, now they're all bummed out.
He Thank you. He was in an episode of Tales
from the Crypt in 1991. I looked this up.
It's not a memorable one. Guess what?
Somebody was cheating on their husband in it.

(45:45):
Yeah. Believe it or not, Janet is
married to a Doctor Who's married to his work.
She wants to live her life with passion, danger and romance like
Fuchsia Monroe, a soap opera character she watches
religiously when her television goes haywire.
Her friend Louise. I don't care.
Yeah, but I'm not. I'm not clicking.
Read all. It's we don't care.

(46:06):
I do vaguely remember that 1 though.
Yeah, I think so. I've.
Seen them all like you know it's.
Like, oh, he was in the summer of Sam too. 1999.
I went over that. That was not the movie I thought
it was going to be. Also a disappointing movie that
should have been way way better.Like I was kind of expecting
more Son of Sam. Yeah, that would have been nice.

(46:28):
Yeah. He's where we were.
He's in an episode of Father Dowling Mysteries.
Oh, here. Good Lord.
Episode of The Equalizer. Hunter Trapper John, MD, The
Twilight Zone. Amazing stories.
Magnum, Pi. His first role is in Kenny and

(46:51):
Dolly A Christmas to Remember 1984.
Shout out to Dolly. Partner just lost her husband
this week. Yep, Which?
Doesn't bode well for the rest of society.
Yeah, if Dolly's checking out then we're all fucked.
Yeah, if Dolly dies this year, so do I.
That's. Fair.

(47:14):
Orange juice pitch man Robert Loja is honest.
Drink the orange juice. Kid truly one of the weirdest
and greatest congressions ever. Yeah, let's ask a 10 year old
child who can get him to drink orange juice and I don't know,
Robert Loja. Fucking Robert Loja.

(47:34):
The absolutely reeks of like somebody knew Robert Loja like
it was making that commercial, like, yeah, absolutely called in
a favor. If we can get Robert Loja, what
are we going to do with him? Oh, fuck.
We have to have this kid in it. Yeah, I don't know.
The kid wants to meet Robert Loja.
What kid doesn't? He is also in a ton of fucking

(47:57):
movies. The Loge.
Yeah, he's in both of the Independence Day movies.
That other one is almost 10 years old.
I don't. You say that.
I forgot that even existed because I didn't care that much.
Better off that way, Better off that way.

(48:18):
We're talking about Loja. What are we laughing at?
Sam said Dolly Parton, who should still be in an odd couple
movie with Elvira as fraternal twins.
Oh, I've watched the fuck out ofthe check.
Yes, yeah. And then our producer here said
that movie, that movie made today would still be a 10 out of
10 and boner builder every. Flag, flag and bull.

(48:41):
Bats. That's it.
Oh, fucking sort of friction fire from all that dry vagina
anyway. Fucking lusting after
septuagenarians. He played himself in two
episodes of Family Guy and I'm pretty sure one of those

(49:02):
appearances was just them remaking the fucking orange
juice commercial. Get the fuck out of.
Here I am, more than positive. Yeah, Yeah, he's in Tim and
Eric's Billion Dollar Movie. No, thank you.
There was a period of time whereI was just really into Tim and
Eric. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(49:23):
Not actually, no. I didn't really care for Tim and
Eric, but I did love tangos of the mayor.
Oh I we watched the shit of Tim and Eric Awesome show what?
Was it Tim and Eric? Awesome show.
Good job. Great job.
Great job. Yeah, we almost went as the
Beaver Boys when Halloween. They're like fake fucking white

rap group that's shrimp and white wine all right, Fucking
Loggia. He's an episode of Monk.
He's and Tom goes to the mayor as well in an episode of the

Kojak reboot and I think also inthe original Kojak.
Oh, that's right, fucking Ving Rhames.
Right. Yeah, yeah, he was in 4 episodes
of the I forgot he was in The Sopranos feature La Mana.
I never did finish The Sopranos.I got like a long way into it

(50:27):
and I just fizzled out. I think I'm getting ready to
watch that again. I'm I'm about to He was a voice
in Grand Theft Auto 3 shows up an episode of Malcolm in the
middle. We were trying to re watch that
and just. Malcolm in the Middle.
Yeah, lost steam in the middle of season 2.
Yeah, it's very samey. Yeah.

(50:49):
Oh, something weird and quirky is going to happen.
Great. Let's see.
It's in the Joan of Arc TV moviein 1999.
TV miniseries. Sorry, because nothing says
French like Robert Loggia. He played Joe Torre's brother in

(51:10):
a Joe Torre TV movie. What?
1997 curveballs along the way, old curveballs over there.
What just just sounds like a weird fucking anyway, he's lost

(51:34):
the highway. Oh.
Great. I'm still getting over old curve
balls over here. They only swing one way.
I was just saying, you know, fucking Joe Torre got that
nickname. Not because of baseball.
I'm telling you. Curve balls.

(51:54):
Yeah, it's a shower nickname. Like 1 is way high fucking taint
assassinator. Like right up there.
It was just slapping against me.The original Independence Day is
almost 30 years old. Also as 1996.

(52:19):
Let's see bad girls that like girly western from 1994 with
like Drew Barrymore I. Don't recall that.
Who the fuck else is in it? Madeline Stowe, Mary Stewart
Masterson and Andy McDowell? The.
Fuck out of here. Never seen it, but that 52 feels

(52:42):
like it's a little high, yeah. Jim Beaver, we've talked about
him before. Hell yeah, That's because he's
awesome. And his name's Beaver.
Back to Robert Loggia, I'm goingto cut it off here because his

(53:02):
career goes back to like the fucking.
Probably the 40s. Yeah, he was a necessary
roughness. I mean, he's in Scarface Big
with Tom Hanks 1988. Yep.
And we'll cut it off there because it goes back to like the
60s. Oh no.
I'm. Sorry, hold on.
Yeah, he was an episode of. Murder.

(53:24):
She wrote. Sorry I I almost fucked that up.
Yeah. That was 84, so first season
Murder, She Wrote. It was one year after Scarface.
He's in a couple of the Pink Panther movies as well.
I never loved those. I watched them when I was a kid.
I think people just put them on because I had Pink Panther in
the title expecting I would likethem and I didn't.

(53:46):
No, I'd rather watch the cartoonplease.
Yeah, exactly. Where's the fucking?
Where's the where's the actual cartoon?
Yeah, he was in Psycho 2 as well.
David Proval was in this. We mentioned him before.
His biggest role was as Richie Apriel in The Sopranos.

(54:08):
Just a fucking crazy like psychocharacter.
He shows up. We actually talked about him
before, so we're not going to talk about him that much.
He was in the Monster Squad. He's one of the pilots in the
beginning. That's right, flying Dracula's
coffin. Up next, Chazz Palman Terry.
He's basically a professional gangster, like, you know, in

(54:30):
movies anyway. Yeah, have you ever seen him in
something that, Oh my God, he was on bubble guppies?

In bubble guppies. Yeah, Oh, hadn't seen Tiny the
slugs. He he might be.
Yeah, he was on a couple episodes of Models Hold Hold.

(54:56):
Hold the fuck on. This one.
Nope. I mean, that's awesome.
He's on an episode of Law and Order Organized Crime.
His character's name is Manfreddy Sinatra.
Do you think he looked at that script and went, Are you fucking
serious right now? Are you fucking serious?
Manfreddy Sinatra What the? Fuck, you might as well as just

(55:21):
told him to go get his fucking shine box.
Oh holy shit, Mob of the Dead video game.
What the fuck is that? Jesus Christ, I remember him

(55:42):
being in more notable stuff. That's because you're only in
2005. That's true.
He was in the Kojak reboot. Also.
Lady and the Tramp 2, The Dilbert cartoon Analyze this
1999 Mulholland Falls 96. Jade 95.

(56:08):
Yeah. Usual suspects.

Bullets Over Broadway 94, I think he wrote that as well as a
Broadway show, I believe. Yeah, his most notable role is
probably A Bronx Tale. Yeah, it's got to be.
Yeah, honestly that 7.8 little high I.

(56:28):
Was going to say it's dead. Yeah, it's either like about
right or I it's been a while since I've seen it.
When I was younger I loved that fucking movie and.
Everybody did. Yeah, I watched it again
recently. Like, this fucking sucks.
Oh really? Yeah, that bad, huh?

I'm not going over that. He was in The Last Dragon 1985.
Fucking great movie. It's so good, it's so dumb.
Up next, Tony Cirico, like half of this movie is just the cast

(57:15):
of The Sopranos basically. Yeah, you know, Tony Cirico
included, who was of course Paulie fucking walnuts on 74
episodes of The Sopranos. Was also in Goodfellas as Tony
stacks. And then like a lot of one offs
just shows up as like a mobster type.
Did 5 episodes of Family Guy, probably as himself.

(57:38):
Lily Hammer. That show with Miami.
Steve Van Zandt. Pardon me.
Yeah. Did you show?
Apparently, like the OK, so Paulie Walnuts is always like,
like holding his hands out in front of him.
Yeah, apparently that was like aprison thing.
Still, like his hands were always up and like, ready to do

(57:59):
something. No shit.
Yeah. Huh.
That's an interesting like little fucking state fact.
He brought that, brought that toThe Sopranos with him.
He was in Copland in 1997. That's a really good movie.
Yeah, 7 is 7 is low I. Would go higher than 7.
Yeah, I wouldn't go much higher,but 88 feels.
Right. Yeah, He's in Dead Presidents in

(58:20):
1995. Woof.
Oh, looks like he's got a coupleof Woody Allen movies
Deconstructing Harry, Mighty Aphrodite.
Oh, he's also in Bullets Over Broadway.
He's in Romeo's Bleeding, which was like a like a crime cop
movie with Gary Oldman. 1993 is a really good movie.

(58:43):
Goodfellas we mentioned. Isn't that a Tom Waits song too?
Romeo is bleeding. Maybe.
Pretty sure. That's all of those.
Oh, it's also Tom. Waits.
All right, there we go. He was in an episode of Police
Squad in 1982, which was the TV show that The Naked Gun is based

(59:06):
on. We're going to move on from
there as soon as we can get rid of this tab.
Up next, Tony Lipp, who I saved also because he is Carmine
Lupertazi, one of the other likecaptains of the Soprano crime
family in The Sopranos. He is in a couple of other

(59:29):
pretty big movies. Donnie Brasco, 1997.
Forget about it. I just listened to that while
falling asleep the other night. Yeah, that will happen.
No, I mean, I put it on like as I was, you know, I, I put a
movie anything like I've moved on from listening to a movie to
like finding apps, like streaming apps that will let you
play the audio, like with your phone screen.

(59:49):
Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I put that on the other
night. It's not a great movie.
It's it's it's another like goodmovie that yeah, not a great
movie. Yeah, it's good, but it just,
it's not like top tier mob movie.
He is in Goodfellas in 1990 as Frankie the Wop.

(01:00:12):
Everybody knows that Goodfellas is higher than an 8.7.
Yeah, it's like that is common knowledge.
That's that I'm going to put as far as mob movies, 10, yeah,
straight out 10. It's up there with it's the
Godfather one and two and then Goodfellas, Yeah.
And then casino is like. Just just.

(01:00:32):
Below that. Yeah, I I can support that.
He saw this with the Pope of Greenwich Village 1984.
Another fucking great movie. And he's in The Godfather 72, is
an uncredited wedding guest. Nice.
Up next, Kim Coates, who is alsoin a ton of shit.

He is most notably Tig in Sons of Anarchy.
He was in Goon also in 2011 withSean Williams.
Scott Yeah. He was the coach.
Yeah, that's a really good movieI love.
That fucking movie. We're going to move on from
there because it's pretty much what he's known for.
He shows up as like a one off and a lot of things, but that's

(01:01:18):
like the biggest stuff. Let's see, was he in Deadwood?
No, no. I don't think so.
Somebody was in Deadwood. I I might have not even saved
them all, right? That's OK 'cause you still got
like 9 more people to go through.
Yeah. Up next, Marshall Bell, who was

(01:01:39):
in this movie. I saved him for five seconds for
one reason alone. He is fucking Quatto.
The host of Quatto. Anyway, in in Total Recall, but
he's also in a bunch of other awesome movies.
Starship Troopers. He's all over the place.
Yeah, Stand by me. Things to Do in Denver When
You're Dead is a really good movie, and we're going to move

(01:02:03):
on from there. He shows up an episode of
Reservation Dogs. That was a good show.
Up next, Angela Bassett, who shows up in this movie for like
30 seconds to a minute. Yeah, fucking has been in a ton
of bangers. I mean pop culture wise.

(01:02:23):
Mostly in the 90s though, right?Like.
No, but she's still in shit now.I mean she was in both the Black
Panther movies. She's in the was in 115 episodes
of 911, which is still going. Jesus.
She's the main. Character.
Yeah, Zero Day that just came out.
That's on Netflix, 6 episodes ofthat.

(01:02:43):
She's in the 911 spin off. She's in when we mentioned
fucking the Marvel stuff. She's the queen of Wakanda,
Gunpowder milkshake. That was very disappointing.
It sounds it. It was like an action movie
with, like, Lena Headey and Karen Gillan.
Yeah, it was not good. She's a voice in the Bumblebee

(01:03:07):
Transformers movies to 48 episodes of American Horror
Story, 10 episodes of Bojack Horseman.
Still have not seen a single episode of that.
That's a good show. That's a good show.
She's in the Green Lantern movie.
Oh, good. It's nothing to brag about.
Yeah, we'll move on, I think. Mr. and Missus Smith, Alias 4

(01:03:32):
episodes of that Bernie Mac show.
I mean, she's Angela Bassett, like you've seen her somewhere
before. Up next, Luis Guzman, another
fucking just legend of acting who you've seen somewhere.
Yeah, he's in every movie. Yeah, pretty much.

(01:03:54):
Most recently he was in Beverly Hills Cop.
Axel F Somehow not the worst Beverly Hills Cop movie.
Actually a pretty good pretty good movie.
He was in the Justified reboot in 2023.
Let's see, he was an episode of Poker Face, which is coming back
I think next month. I I liked it until I didn't.

(01:04:22):
Like, I don't like. I didn't get super far into it
either. I dug the whole thing.
I thought it was awesome. I loved it.
Like Mystery of the Week. Like, yeah, he was also most
recently Gomez Adams in Wednesday, which is also coming
back in a little bit, I think. Oh.
Really. Some of the other stuff he's

(01:04:45):
been in Shameless Godfather of Harlem, which you're still
watching art. Yeah, I'm still watching it.
Pretty. Good.
He's in the Adam Sandler classic.
Sandy Wexler. Classic, you say?
I've never seen it. Me neither.
Keanu, the Key and Peele movie. He's in Puerto Ricans in Paris,

(01:05:08):
which is better than a 5.4. That's actually a really good
movie. Yeah, it's him and another guy
for the, I don't know who, the other guy.
Is do they do they go to Paris? They're like Bronx detectives
who have to, like, go to Paris to like, like, solve a murder
that like, happened in the Bronx.
It's like all can I It's really good movie.
Yeah, aside from that, the BrunoMars video, How to Make it in

(01:05:36):
America, that was a pretty good show that was on HBO for like
two seasons, I think. Yeah, he's in both of the
waiting movies. I never saw the second one, but
the first one is a fucking classic.
Yeah, I don't think I saw the second one either.
Also does some Grand Theft Auto voice work.

(01:05:58):
Waiting was 20 years ago. Shut your fucking mouth.
Shut your dirty fucking mouth. He's in both of the Carlito's
Way movies. Only one of them is worth
watching. Same with Dumb and Dumber.

(01:06:22):
Don't bother. Yeah, 3.5 is about right.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Anger Management with Adam
Sandler and Nicholson. Jack Nicholson.
Nicholson, Jack Nicholson. Adventures of Pluto, Nash.
Punch Drunk Love. Adam Sandler loves him then.

(01:06:42):
Yeah, he must be in with Sandler.
He's in The Count of Monte Cristo, which was a really good
movie. I remember like that 2002
traffic. That was 2000.
He was in 12 episodes of Oz. We went over Boogie Nights.
I know, not yet. We didn't get there yet.
He's in Boogie Nights. That's probably the most

(01:07:02):
probably thing people most know him from, I'm going to say, and
we're going to move on from there.
He's in the John Leguizamo series House of Buggin.
For what I'm assuming is all 10 episodes, I'm.
Pretty sure, yeah, that that show was really fucking funny.
But not, you know, for America in 1995.

(01:07:25):
No. We mentioned Carlito's way.
Absolute Walker. Texas Ranger.
Hell yeah. There we go.
All right, now we're going to move on.
We're almost done. Don motherfucking Rickles is in
this movie. Another just classic.
He, you know him as Don Rickles,basically.
Yeah, like he's the voice of Mr.Potato Head and Don Rickles.

(01:07:47):
Yeah, yeah, you've seen him somewhere insulting somebody and
and yeah, he was the voice of Mr. Potato.
Hey that's probably the the movie role people know him most
from. Also Casino he's in.
Yeah, but he was basic. He was playing a character, but
he's basically himself. Yeah, he was a stand up comic.
Yeah, there. Wasn't he like a pit boss?

(01:08:13):
Oh yeah. Casino, Yeah.
Maybe you're right. I think so.
He has a cameo in Dirty Work, which is fucking hilarious.
It's just him. Like ripping into fucking Norm
MacDonald and Artie Lange. Yeah, yeah, he calls Artie Lange
a baby gorilla. I.

(01:08:35):
Just remember he was doing something with Triumph the
Insult comic dog. Maybe it was one of the roasts
and the Triumph was just on stage going boop on me, boop on
me. Yeah, 'cause triumph is just Don
Rickles. Like, yeah, it's a, it's a hand
puppet version of Don Rickles. And I think we're going to, oh,

(01:09:04):
he's in one of the greatest fucking episodes of Tales from
the Crypt. The one with him and Bobcat
Goldthwaite were their fucking rival ventriloquist.
Yeah. And then he just shows up
basically as Don Ripples and a bunch of shit.
And last up on this fucking credits.
March of Death. Tom Savini.

(01:09:28):
He's Tom Savini. Yeah.
A makeup guy, movie cameo guy. He's Sex Machine and from from,
you know, from Dustal Dawn. I never would have expected him
to be in The Perks of Being a Wallflower.
Yeah, he's like a professor in that movie.
Yeah, not professory, like looking or acting, you know, any

(01:09:48):
way in real life he wasn't terrified.
Or three, Sure. Oh yeah, that was Furatu, that
TV series and IMC, which was super disappointing.
Same with Lock and Key. I'm looking at you, Joe Hill.

(01:10:09):
Well, to be fair, like the source material for those was
good, right? Like a lot of people love the
Nosferatu book, and the lock andkey comic was pretty good.
It wasn't for me, yeah, but like, it was quality.
Yeah, I read the first like trade of of lock and key.
I was like this is good. I don't need to read anymore, I
think. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

(01:10:33):
I mean, he just pops up here andthere in a lot of movies.
He's Thompson, baby. We are going to wrap things up
there and move on to the crapshoot.
Hoo ha. That was March.
Yeah. I.
Happy Mario Day, by the way. Oh shit, it is March 10th.

(01:10:55):
Yeah, I. Think he died yesterday.
Oh shit, 30 years ago? No, not 30, but pretty fucking
close. Close.
It was like 96.7. Yeah, I.
Want to say 6 anyway. Yeah.

(01:11:22):
Oh, we're. Going to get drunk Frankenstein
on the line I. Didn't miss this call, I just.
Yeah, we'll call this motherfucker.
Yeah. Hello, is this drunk

(01:11:47):
Frankenstein? Yeah, it is.
I think that's a yes. Answered in the affirmative.
I was thinking of big timing, you boys.
Oh, look at this guy. Yeah, that.
Is nice to be. Called.

(01:12:07):
Fucking celebrity now Frankenstein.
What do you think of the movie Innocent Blood?
Innocent blood. I thought we were watching Hell
Comes to Frogtown. This week?
No, we did that already. What?
Yeah. What?
The fuck is today? Mario Day dawg too.

(01:12:29):
Much formaldehyde, the day, the year.
Oh, those garlicky. Oh.
Yeah, leftover chicken parm. It's some veal.
Raphael the other night. That was fucking dynamite, yeah.

(01:12:53):
Anyway, I don't know, I don't know what that.
Since we all like, wrapped up with like, prosciutto and
mozzarella cheese and fucking tomato sauce.
Oh yeah. Full hard.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was good.
Anyway, back to the movie and drunk Frankenstein, Yeah?

(01:13:15):
Frankenstein. What kind of Italian?
What kind of Italian food gives you fucking full lobster tail?
We were talking over each other.What do you want?
You tell me, asshole. You called me.

(01:13:36):
I didn't do shit. I didn't do fucking shit.
You didn't tell us what you thought of The Innocent Blood.
You just started rambling about other movies.
Well, I don't have notes prepared because I was pretty

(01:13:58):
sure we were watching wrestlers versus Zombies or whatever, but
like, it's. A little hard out for Rowdy
Rowdy. Hey, we all do.
I'm pretty sure I have Roddy Roddy Piper's hard on stitched
on me. It's Plaid.

(01:14:18):
Hell yeah. Is it the size of this fucking
beer can? I would imagine so of.
Course it was. Man saved Christmas one year
with a wrestling promo. Fuck yeah, you did.

(01:14:38):
Oh, miss you, hot rod. But yeah, a movie with Robert
Loja. Pretty cool.
Directed by John Landis. Pretty sure Robert Loja is still
alive. So is it really a John Landis

(01:14:59):
production? Well, he did survive this movie
anyway. He did not survive B85.
So Dang, really? Cold for a throat.
Apparently he was in sequel to Independence Day.

(01:15:20):
Maybe that killed him. Yeah, it would kill me.
Yeah, I think it would kill me to watch it.
It is not good. Because I don't I don't love the
first one. Well.
Yeah, that's. A hot take, yeah.
I'm not saying it's bad. That's.
That's Sam Raimi for sure. Oh yeah, yeah, I was probably

(01:15:42):
checked out by this point. Yeah, I would imagine so.
Of course, his Raimi boys. Crack a couple of beers and
listen to Bill Pullman. Mario will come around.
Paxton Pullman, Pullman. Yeah, Haxton.
Yeah, this table has done a great job of like turning this

(01:16:04):
beer like it's, it's like spin simmering also.
Oh. That's what the coasters are
for. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Huh. They're still kind of warm too,
but that's as hot as the table. The the heater is under the
table, it cooks the things on the table.
Yeah, yeah. Next episode, we'll fry an.
Egg. Yeah.
This is basically a giant griddle right now, Yeah.

(01:16:27):
Couple fried puebos in your pants there, boy.
My legs are very warm, right? Now, yeah, it's kind of awesome.
I don't like being cold, like atall.
I I do not tolerate it. I I would rather be a little
cold than excess warm. No, never.
Not a once. You can always put on more

(01:16:51):
layer, you can't take off skin. Or I guess you could.
I could, but once I get cold I have a hard time warming up so I
would rather just be warm. It's.
Going to be like 5560° tomorrow.Cannot wait.
Yeah, yeah. It's coming back.
Based on your coloration, don't you people come from a?

(01:17:12):
Cold, wet place. What my people?
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Places with like a lot of fermented fish and Viking ships
and bagpipes. This beer broth is really

(01:17:37):
fucking beer. Broth.
Yeah. Soup of the day?
I don't think so. That's like cracking open a nice
above room temperature Yuga clubHe's.
Still drinking? That's a test enough to.

(01:17:58):
You know, Oh yeah, I'm still drinking, Yeah.
Like our sponsorship, God damn it.
I would love to get some. Soup.
It's what's in my bowl, my toilet bowl.
Yes, that is used beer, ladies and gentlemen, used beer.
Speaking of sponsorships, can you put up the throw up the the

(01:18:20):
banner? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
The Ticker. The ticker.
Yeah, there we go. The show is brought to you by
Blue Coal. It's Milden, Pennsylvania.
I get that. Reference.
Look at that glorious promo ponydancing across the screen, yeah?

(01:18:44):
The original Shadow radio drama was brought to you by Blue Coal.
Oh, all right. Yeah.
Deep cut. That's right.
So the stuff that's been burningunder Pennsylvania for like 60
years. No, that's that's hell.

(01:19:09):
All right, we're going to let you go, Frankenstein.
You guys aren't even fucking paying me, how can you let me
go? Take your walking papers and get
the fuck out of here. We're doing Horror of Dracula
next. Week Lorpsky you bought?

(01:19:30):
Yeah, come back. Come back next week for Horror
of Dracula. No, I'm not.
No. What'd you do this week?
I've watched a couple of movies.I went to the movies and I'm

(01:19:51):
trying to remember what the fuckI saw.
That made you go see too many fucking movies.
Yeah. Did you remember when, like,
going to the movies was an event?
It was a thing that you did and it was, like, exciting.
It's just like fucking Tuesday night for you now.
It pretty much is, yeah. This was a Sunday night, I
believe. Or no.
Was it Friday night? Oh yeah, I saw Mickey 17 Friday

(01:20:13):
night. Oh, how is that 'cause it looks
fun? Oh, really?
Yeah, it it does not like it. It starts off good and then like
by the end of it I'm just like so checked out and like.
Just like, get to the, get to the fucking.
Point. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So I don't know. I was disappointed.
I watched the Gorge earlier thisweek.

(01:20:33):
It's an Apple TV movie that was pretty fucking good.
Yeah. With Miles Teller and Anya
Taylor Joy. OK.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. They play like they're each like
these like elite, like snipers. Basically.
She is like Eastern European, he's American.
They each get chosen for this mission where they have to spend

(01:20:56):
a year on like opposite sides ofthis gourd.
There's like 2 towers that were set up like after World War 2.
They don't know why they're there.
They just have to like there's like fucking guns everywhere and
like mines and shit. And they're like, like, you know
why, what are we, you know what's in there that we're
keeping people out? Like no, we're, we're keeping
what's in the gorge in there. And like, you know, they like

(01:21:21):
they're not supposed to, you know, like whatever you do,
don't talk to the person across on the other side.
And of course, they end up like,fucking start signaling each
other and fucking yeah, and theyend up, you know, having to go
into the gorge and there's like,all kinds of monsters and shit.
It was, it was really fucking good.
Movie. Yeah, OK yeah, yeah.
What's? It called.
The Gorge. The Gorge.
Yeah, it's kind of honey Taylor Joy, so.

(01:21:45):
That doesn't mean anything. He's a little.
Yeah, I mean, somebody's eyes are fucking too spaced out.
But yeah, I I highly recommend that for the for the dozen or so
people that have Apple TVI. Still don't understand how
that's going. There is actually really good

(01:22:06):
shit on there like. Yeah, but nobody.
Subscribes to it, Yeah. Well, Ted Lasso, I think, is
what's keeping it going. Jesus Christ, Yeah.
Fuck it, I've been watching moreof the Detroiters.
That show is fucking amazing. I love that show.
Is that like that's a done thing, right?

(01:22:27):
Like that? Was like two seasons they see
yeah fuck, what else did I do this week?
I. Don't know.
Yeah. How much?
Yeah, honestly, not a whole lot.Yeah, I've been listening to a
new book. Well, it's not a new book, but

(01:22:47):
it's new to me, Mindhunter. Since the thing they based the
show off of. Yeah.
All right, all right. So it's, it's like a the the guy
just basically going like, hey, this is how we started the FBI
like profiling system, like withserial killers and, and all

(01:23:11):
kinds of kinds of crazy shit. Yeah, really good.
Like really, really good. All right, it's a little
different from the show because obviously the show was is like a
dramatized thing where this is like a more autobiographical, I
guess, but really entertaining. I've listened to like hours and

(01:23:35):
hours of it in the last couple of work days.
All right, I like that a lot. Rewatched Dune.
Oh, which one? The newer 1.
No, the first one. The first movie.
I mean, all the newer, yeah. Yeah, not the 80s one.
Yeah, you guys are doing that next or in a future episode?

(01:23:56):
No. It's next, yeah.
All right, that's unfortunate. Not.
That we're doing the whole 1. Yeah, no, that's not a good
movie. No, I I don't think it will.
Be no poison. It this long?
No, the newer 1 is way better. The newer 1 is way better.
The sci-fi miniseries was way better, just like the fucking

(01:24:18):
did. You watch Part 1 or Part 2 or
both. Just part one, Yeah, I still
haven't seen Part 2. I don't know what the fuck is
wrong with me. It's good, Yeah.
Yeah, I. Just haven't gotten to it.
Did I do anything else? What did I do?
I played a bunch of Grim Dawn. All right?
Saturday. Saturday, I think.

(01:24:40):
Yeah. That's such a fun game.
It's a Diablo esque game. Yeah, OK, yeah, yeah, yeah.
See, Speaking of games, I've gotthe new Super Boss monster
coming in a couple of weeks. Oh nice.
Yeah, we'll have to do a game night.

(01:25:02):
Yeah, my my gaming experience these days has been Uno and
goldfish or Go Fish and a littlebit of King of Tokyo.
All right. Which is that's.

(01:25:23):
Fun. It's.
So fun. Yeah, it's ridiculous.
And a card game called a lot of axolotls.
Unstable unicorns? Nope, it's.
It's in real life games. It's just a kids game.
It's fun. It's just like there's a hand of

(01:25:47):
cards and there are different color axolotls and you have to
match them to like claim the ones that are in the center of
the table. It's fine.
It's a kids game. I play games with kids now this.
Is what I do. I have stopped playing gigantic
board games with my adult friends and now I play card
games with my kids. Yeah, I was thinking the.

(01:26:15):
Other Oh, and Phase 10. A lot of Phase 10 too.
All right, I was thinking the other day I would like to play
Clag again. That was a fun game.
Yeah, that was a good time. I mean, not the whole game
through. Not the whole thing again.
Yeah, another round of it. Yeah, because that was a long
time. Yeah, but we played once a week.

(01:26:38):
Yeah. What was that 10 sessions?
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, it was a slow week.
It was went to dinner Sunday night to Texas Roadhouse and ate

(01:26:58):
way too much fucking food. I.
Almost went there recently in the mood.
I really like it now that you know they no longer assault you
with country music when you walkin.
Yeah, they do. Last time I was there it wasn't
as loud. Oh, it was fucking.
It's loud outside, loud inside. They still do the line dancing
thing where people, you know, want to just die but they can't

(01:27:20):
because they have bills to pay. Oh whatever, that bread is
delicious. It's fucking bread and the.
Butter. We went to Armando's in
Rotterdam Saturday night, which is really fucking good.
Yeah, yeah. Italian joint.
I assume that's where you got your veal.

(01:27:42):
Veal Raphael. Yeah, real.
Veal fucking Donatello OR. Whatever.
Hey, boobs not. Not much.
Yeah, a little bit of boobs. Yeah.
Yeah. I really don't think I have

(01:28:03):
much, man. I'm like, don't do shit this
week. Yeah, yeah.
It's fine. It's fine play play the shit
load of snap. I have not play it a little bit,
but and like I go in phases because like I like sometimes
their urge is like really strong, like, Oh, I I built this

(01:28:23):
new deck and I really want to try it out and and see what I
can make out of it. And then I'm like, I'm done with
this. Fuck, I feel like there's
something I'm forgetting to bring up.
Oh well, couldn't have been thatimportant.
Oh, Sam says the new season of Last Drive In is coming.
That's fucking magnificent news.Yeah, I think it's soon.

(01:28:44):
I don't remember when exactly. I'm not sure, but I would I
would love for them to be guestsat certain comic cons that we
will be at. Yes, Segway.
Yeah. Oh, nice.
You're going to be able to find us very soon.
Hopefully an Adirondrak retro nerd fest in a couple weeks.

(01:29:07):
Hopefully. Yeah, I'm waiting for
confirmation on. That, yeah.
If not there, you're going to beable to catch us at Saratoga
Comic Con May 3rd and 4th in Saratoga, NY at the Saratoga
City Center. After that, you're going to have

(01:29:27):
to wait till August to catch us again.
As of now anyway. We have a big weekend.
The first weekend of August. We're going to be at a Mid
Hudson Comic Con that weekend inPoughkeepsie, NY.
At the same time, we will be at Tampa Bay Comic Con in Tampa
Bay, believe it or not. You're going to be in Florida in

(01:29:49):
August. That sounds.
Disgusting. It's it's.
It's wet. They have started announcing
some of the bigger guests from that and I am.
Yeah, fucking Keith David. They announced Doug Jones this
week too. Yeah.
And I am going to assume they'regoing to announce Ron Perlman

(01:30:09):
soon because the two of them have been doing like I've.
I've seen them getting announcedfor shows like.
Oh really? Yeah, he's on the same tour,
Surrogate. Yeah.
So it's probably. It would make sense.
Fucking get Ron Perlman and playApe Sapien and Hellboy, please,
Satan, fucking whatever, Joe DiMaggio, whoever have to
fucking pray to you to get that to happen.

(01:30:36):
Yeah, whatever that is in I think it's August.
Tampa Bay is August like 1st through the 3rd and Mid Hudson
is August 2nd through the 3rd. And then we'll be back at
Saratoga again in November. You're going to want to catch
our trivia contest at the May Saratoga Comic Con.

but I'm going to. I believe I believe the word is
unhinged. Yeah, that's the one.
Yeah. It's going to be like the last
panel of the day. So I think it's like it's 6:00
or 7:00 PM, whatever. Well, no, we're going after

(01:31:19):
something, aren't we? Yeah, I guess like a, I don't
