amigos of America's hometown Rum joined of course in Sandrew
and Kat Lady gentleman. How are I how we don't
and how we don't Y know what's up?

Speaker 3 (03:04):
I was just watching that Chili's commercial on the March
mand as do we have in the background, And that
burger smash with the cheese that oozes out is just
like such awesome food porn to watch.

Speaker 1 (03:16):
Like.

Speaker 3 (03:16):
I know that I don't think that that's gonna be
the best burger ever, but.

Speaker 4 (03:19):
It just looks so good.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
That's how they dry you in, I know. And do
you also remember the last time we ate a chili
a month ago? The most like the most disgusting people
in the face of the earth. The next day it
was absolutely and then the night after that.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
I always just get the sampler from Chili's, give me
the big mult Bites, Chicken Crispers and the South as
Southwest Agro.

Speaker 3 (03:41):
I love that bean dip with the ground beef. So good,
so good. So Andrew, I know it's been a little
while since you've been on.

Speaker 2 (03:51):
It has been that long. It was last episode.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Well, it turns out that news episode was a little
bit uh oh, that's right.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
I forgot about the news episode never got released. Probably no,
because you were being off the whole time. Oh, I.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
Actually now now that is the type of episode. If
we were to ever do a Patreon type of thing,
that would be the type of.

Speaker 2 (04:19):
Episode it was. Yeah, you were on one that night.
I was, I was just I was back in the saddle.
I was like, I hadn't been here in a while,
getting my cock on.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I was, yeah, you were. You were rocking, rolling, feeling good,
ready to go. You were firing on all cylinders, porn,
penis talk, poop talk, patre all. Well, so we don't
have a Patreon at this point. But that's an episode
that Shano did fully cut and listen to and edited

(04:54):
nothing to which he said, oh, Andrews said much more
offensive things before, And I was like, dude, did you
actually it makes me wonder if he actually listened to.

Speaker 4 (05:02):
It, that he does such a great job, and now
you're like.

Speaker 2 (05:04):
No, he does.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
I'm just busting Sean.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Also, I don't think I said I normally don't say
anything offensive. Well I would.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
I would redirect you to the True Detective season five
part of the episode, and uh, also the parts about
Emma Stone and how is that offensive?

Speaker 2 (05:19):
She's a disgusting looking smelling It's not like you're not
saying like a racist thing. Emma Stone looks like she
smells like my butt cheeks.

Speaker 1 (05:30):
She stinks. I believe you said, she looks like she
smells like cottage cheese. And she smells and looks like AIDS.
Is what you said, AIDS anymore?

Speaker 2 (05:40):
No one gets offended by AIDS and magic Johnson defeated AIDS.
It's been ruined.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
It's okay. There there were other things as well, but
smells good, all right.

Speaker 2 (05:50):
Someone's clamped butt cheeks that has like the AIDS virus. Well,
if you're asking.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
So, I hope you enjoyed our nose for two episode.
Thank you for the reminder and a little at the
news that. Yeah, you know what, maybe maybe we'll maybe
we'll put it out there at some point because it is.
It is pretty funny. It's just a little bit. You
gotta you gotta give us a little something extra if
you want to hear that one.

Speaker 2 (06:13):
So you just gotta be a human. Yeah, it has
like a sense of humor. And that's some fucking rusty
door knobs, like rusty to knobs for that even open.
Those don't even open, just get stuck in the Yeah,
nice nice sort of rusty door knob.

Speaker 5 (06:33):
Doorknob crusted, it just doesn't open, rusty, get jammed up
nothing works of rust, fall off land in the spindle
of the.

Speaker 4 (06:44):
Write this down. You're you're slam jam poetry right now.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
I mean I have slam jam, not poetry.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Well, this should be another fun episode to try and
control here because there's a basketball going on in the
background behind me that I can't see, but Andrew and
Cat clearly can't see, and they both have betting interest
in tonight.

Speaker 3 (07:08):
I just I made one small I always have a bracket.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
How's your twelve leg parley looking so.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Well?

Speaker 1 (07:15):
It died last night? So it's yeah, yeah, did you
better new one night?

Speaker 4 (07:19):
Just now? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (07:21):
All right? So all right, fair En, I'm just staring
at like people running arouse the court. I can't see that.
I don't know what the scores say. That's too My
eyesight is not that good.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Is very blue?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
I know the drake swinning.

Speaker 4 (07:33):
Our TV is very blue though, I mean it's it
should be more vibrant.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
It doesn't blue.

Speaker 1 (07:40):
It doesn't blue.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
All right?

Speaker 1 (07:48):
So what's new? How's everybody doing? Good?

Speaker 4 (07:52):
Are you doing watches? Because I watched.

Speaker 1 (07:54):
Something I know you did. That's why I wanted to
include watchless tonight. But first Cat, I wanted to include
one quick news item for you that I would be
of particular interest to you. And this I think Matt
sent to the group. This was an article that was
published just a few short days ago, an exclusive to
Bloody Disgusting dot com Saw series shocker, Is it game

(08:15):
over for Saw eleven? And basically what they're saying is
that there are a lot of behind these scenes production
issues with the new Saw movies. Consensus is that the
Saw franchise as we know it is over. Oh, the
a game over?

Speaker 4 (08:37):
You canna ask me my opinion is on that, So.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
I'm gonna ask me your opinion is on this. So
what I did also see in this article was that
they are apparently the rights holders to the Saw franchise
are opening it up potentially to be sold from Lionsgate
to somebody else, but that the consensus opinion is that
it probably will be rebooted if that happens. So the

(08:59):
ten move, the continuity Saw series that we've seen is
probably over unless some sort of miracle sweeps in and
helps everything. So, Kat, I know we didn't. We didn't.

Speaker 2 (09:09):
We did one.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Episode on the soft franchise. Actually, no, we've done too.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
You know.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
We did spiral the Chris Rock one and we did
the original one, which is an absolute Alzheimer. But I
know that you love these movies, and you know what,
what are your thoughts on that?

Speaker 4 (09:23):
My thoughts are, you know, financially, we can maybe make
it work to buy the franchise.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
You want to buy the soft franchise. I think we
could want.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Think we could sell a movie.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
I think we could do it cost.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
More than twelve dollars. I don't think.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
I think, I think we could afford to buy it. Yeah,
why don't we do it? Let's do it, ready, let's vote.
I we we.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
Could pool the Can we just turn into like a
pool the few hundred dollars that we made from the
live show we did last year and try and buy it.
I think it's probably gonna go for a few more
million than that if I had to get for.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
Serious though, I mean, I this franchise has gone on.
It's the same with Scream. It's gone on too long.
It's too much.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
It should just end.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
The most recent SAW movies better than the most recent
screen movies. Yes, I think.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
I guess.

Speaker 3 (10:09):
I didn't mean to compare it as like that kind
of remake, but I mean.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
I get what you were saying.

Speaker 3 (10:14):
It's just like, you know, when does it end? I
understand their moneymakers. They're they're just cash pits. They're people
that follow everything. It's like the Walking Dead, Like what
I'll get is my watch list. Things just keep going
and going and going and going, and it's like people,
but then people watch them, so you're like, what am
I gonna do?

Speaker 4 (10:29):
Not make another one?

Speaker 3 (10:30):
Like I mean, that would be stupid not to if
they just make money solely because of the name, Like
so I get.

Speaker 2 (10:36):
Both sides the money because of the name, right, Yeah,
nobody watching, Nobody watching the movie has half a brain.
It's a bunch of idiots.

Speaker 4 (10:46):
That's me. I'm an idiot. I go and I watched watch.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Than I do that.

Speaker 4 (10:52):
I go and it's like saw a movie out. I'm
like when am I going? Like I got to see it?

Speaker 2 (10:56):
They make these movies for people that don't and watch harm.
These are not for horror. These are for.

Speaker 1 (11:06):
Absolute casual horror choosers.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
Like you want to talk, you want to you want
to talk bad about movies? Don't talk don't talk shit
about notes, talk about or like Final Destination, Like these
movies have existed for so long because people are so
well just like blank stare idiots, but.

Speaker 3 (11:29):
They're also they're in that genre blank stare idiots, or
if you're like, hey, I'm going to ask this girl
on a date, let's go see a scary.

Speaker 4 (11:37):
Movie because.

Speaker 2 (11:40):
This idiot girl, Like, that's a whole genre that's want
their Okay, well you're.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
I mean if we were first started starting dating when
the most recent Saw movie came out, I would have said, hey,
do you want to go see something.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
Because you get scared and you're like, oh my god,
you go curl up on the guy like, I mean,
that's totally.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
At a big popcorn bucket and you cut a hold.

Speaker 2 (12:02):
Of what happens. You can do that with anything.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
You don't have to be very scary movies and courage
cuddling and yeah, why that's also kind of a sexist
idea to think that all the girls are always going
to be afraid of everything.

Speaker 4 (12:17):
I mean, you may be.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
I mean if there was a girl, if it was
a girl, it would be holding a dune bucket.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
That's true, to be fair, lost in the you are
much royal.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
There's a hole in the deep in the room.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
It's like all in there.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
And I didn't mean that as a slight to you, cat,
but you are definitely more easily scared than I am
A thousand percent.

Speaker 4 (12:44):
Yeah, jump scared. But I like that. I like I
enjoy being scared.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
Like yes, except except if it's when we're watching bed,
watching TV before bed, because then I can't put anything
spooky because even if you're not watching it, you're on
your phone TikTok, and you're like, I don't want this,
it's too scary, even though you're not thinking.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
I thought in movies where people are screaming, I fall
asleep asleep, I'm like a reanimator. Yeah that works well,
I guess.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
I mean, just to back to the original topic, I
think it's uh, definitely the end of an era because
I mean, I feel like the Saw movies started, I
was in high school slash early college, and now if
if this series is ending, I mean Tobin Bell, Tobin
Bell who plays Jigsaw, he's certainly not getting at a younger

(13:31):
he's and.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
There can't be another like can'tda like dead anyway.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
I mean, it's it's going to be sold to somebody
else and they're gonna do something else with it. But
with that being said, there is something to just maybe
just letting it right off into the sunset at sunset
as you said, Catherine right, like right off at the.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Sunset, Ton Bell is like Luigi.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Luigi mag just killing.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Thing and he's like, oh, they fucked me over. It's
like John Q because have Denzel Washington him and they didn't.
My health care fault.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
Now Denzel Washington is Jigsaw. That's a movie that I
would watch.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Sign me up for that. I mean, I would prefer
John Lithgow, but that.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
Would be also fantastic. John lew also did sign up
for the new Harry Potter TV. Sorry, yeah, he directly,
I believe A direct thing he said was like, I'm
gonna be about eighty seven years old by the time
this thing wraps, so I'll probably be almost dead. I
think he's playing dumble Doors. Yeah, I think he has.
I think I was reluctantly confirming what you were saying

(14:39):
because I'm not one hundred percent rumble morse. Okay, gotcha
free rumblemores.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
All right?

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Cool? So watch list time. I know, Kat you have
a few things. Why don't you go first? And then
yes ahead.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
I watched the full things by Netflix of Walking Dead
Fear City.

Speaker 4 (15:01):
It's like eight episodes.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
I think that's the whole thing already.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
Yeah, I blew through it bam.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
And this is the one with Megan and Maggie.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Yes, I did, sorry whole series, motherfucker. So it's basically
it's on Netflix. I always you know, I always liked
The Walking Dead. I am beyond sick of it in
the same sense of everyone else who I feel like

(15:33):
has just had too much of it. But I'm also
in the same sense of the Saw movies, like I
will give it a try, because I do like The
Walking Dead.

Speaker 4 (15:42):
It just got to be too much, too long. It
didn't end.

Speaker 1 (15:46):
Land the plane, Like I don't need twelve sixteen episode
seasons of The Walking And I've.

Speaker 4 (15:51):
Tried the spin offs Fear. I've done Fear the.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Walking You're better off watched like the first four seasons
and then stop.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
But I even did Fear the Dead, gave that a try.
But like this, actually, if you binge it, it's not bad.
It's not bad at all, especially because they kind of
pick it up and like they pick it off where
they left off, where like they're in different places. They
acknowledge that they know each other from the scene where
Meagan and kills So this is.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Also like we never watched the end of The Walking
down no, no, no, the original walking Down.

Speaker 4 (16:24):
No, we didn't.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
You didn't finish it. No, you like me with like.

Speaker 1 (16:29):
And we made it through about ten seasons and after
that I was just like, I can't, I can't do it.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
But the way they eat seasons.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Too many, thirteen, fourteen, something like that, Jesus Christ.

Speaker 4 (16:40):
But so and yeah, great, Google. We won't even get
into that because that's the whole other conversation.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
But this picks up like as if you never stopped
watching them Walking Dead, Like if you know these two
characters and you know that one incident that happened between them,
like him killing Glenn, what have like all this stuff,
like you know their relationship, and it picks up right
off from that moment and being like fast forward us.

(17:06):
And then they explain a little bit of backstory so
that you know, and then they keep going on with
this new story and it's kind of awesome. So it
takes place in New York m HM. And this new person,
who's a new villain, took there. They were with Maggie
and her new settlement or whatever. This new villain took

(17:29):
Maggie's son named Herschel, which was her father who was
killed Glenn's son. Yes, so she has to find Megan
because this villain pro Croton or something, I forget the
same sounds.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
He's from.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
He's from Croatia, so they call him the croat or
Croton or something. Anyways, so crowd they got to call
him crowd.

Speaker 4 (18:00):
I think it's crowd.

Speaker 3 (18:02):
He does the whistle that Meagan does, and all of
a sudden, she's like, oh my god, he's affiliated with me,
and so then she's after t She then goes on
a hunt for me and then finds Megan and it's like,
you have to help me get back my son, and
you have to go to Manhattan. So man then it
shows all in Manhattan with how it was affected by
the zombie apocalypse, and it's kind of cool because it's

(18:23):
its own island that still has a bunch of problems
with huge skyscrapers and tons of people still in zombies everywhere.

Speaker 4 (18:29):
It's it's pretty cool.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
Sounds like they said, Hey, you know what is pretty
cool is the Last of Us we should probably try
and replicate.

Speaker 3 (18:37):
It's kind of like the Last of Us, which is
kind of the vibes that I got, and it's it's
kind of awesome, like it's almost redeeming for the Walking Dead.
So it's walking Dead. Fear City is on Netflix. I
think there's eight episodes.

Speaker 1 (18:49):
Okay, all right, So I do like the character of
Nagan exactly, Maggie. I could take her leave. I'm walking
deaded out, No one, you're you're saying, and I know
you were walking dead it out as well, So you're
saying this is actually because I think it's coming back
for a second season.

Speaker 4 (19:09):
I saw, I liked it.

Speaker 3 (19:10):
Yeah, I hope it does and it ends. Oh, I'm
there's a woman that is in this that's in Ozark,
the crazy lady, the skinny lady, that's the crazy Oh
I don't know, I don't remember name.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
She was the on the diner that Jason Bateman like
had the affair with, like.

Speaker 2 (19:31):
That one Strudela. Oh no, the one who's married to the.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
Guy with the beard that owned the plantation.

Speaker 2 (19:39):
That one.

Speaker 4 (19:39):
Yes, yes, that's crazy. I don't know her name.

Speaker 1 (19:45):
It's not important, but I know the character you're talking about.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
Yeah, but she's from Ozark because I was like, oh my.

Speaker 4 (19:51):
God, she's.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Crudella.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
If that is actually correct, I'll be I'll be amazed
and totally.

Speaker 2 (20:03):
Cradella Delle Oh.

Speaker 1 (20:09):
Was googled like crazy lady Ozark. It'll probably pop up.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Is it not Garner? No, not Julia Garner. Is that
James Garner's daughter.

Speaker 1 (20:18):
No, I don't think so. No, I has a neo baby.
I think she's a random Actress's curious this lady. Yes,
that's the one that I was thinking of.

Speaker 4 (20:28):
I don't know her name her. She's like, she's like
the other Did.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
You watch those?

Speaker 2 (20:34):

Speaker 1 (20:34):
You show the No, he doesn't. He doesn't know who
that is then because she wasn't season one?

Speaker 2 (20:39):
Yeah that is.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
Yeah, so the Rednecks that they started partnering with her
later seasons with the yeah red next week and say
that's offensive. But the the guy something right, Yeah, yeah,
yeah's definitely. No.

Speaker 2 (20:56):
She looks like.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Darlene Darlene Daring, so she's she's good.

Speaker 4 (21:03):
She's goods like the very end of it.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
And you're like, oh, wow, okay, I think we've talked
enough about Walking Dead on Netflix. Now didn't you also
watch In the Tall Grass?

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (21:17):
I did?

Speaker 1 (21:17):
I forgot? Yes? Yes, yes, I.

Speaker 2 (21:20):
I started watching like forever ago, and it was like, yes, so.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
You know what I kind of did too. I turned
it on at one point the King story, right, Yes,
but you gotta see it.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
Through a little bit.

Speaker 2 (21:33):
Yeah, maybe I didn't give it enough.

Speaker 4 (21:35):
It is a little bit of a slow burn.

Speaker 3 (21:39):
However, it pays off because it, like the BA the
beginning of it's very basic bitch. It's like, oh, don't
go in the tall grass. Oh I'm gonna get lost.
Oh come find me. Hey, oh there's something weird going on.
And you're like, no, I can't find you. It's like
and you're like, okay, this is get really old, like

(22:01):

tall grass. You go in here, like and you don't
even know where the other person is that you came
in with. They can't see you, Like you guys are idiots.
Like it's just basic bitch, stupid scary movie stuff.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
So that's kind of what got me annoyed.

Speaker 3 (22:17):
I think the first time that I started watching this,
and this time around, I let it go.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
I let it slide. I saw it through. It gets weird.
It gets to be like.

Speaker 3 (22:29):
I can't even if I say too much, I'll spoil it.
And I like I know that like Matt would be
able to chime in on this. I feel like because
he knows.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Like every Steven Matt doesn't watch Netflix, no, but he.

Speaker 4 (22:37):
Knows every Stephen King like story.

Speaker 2 (22:39):
Yeah, I wonder if you've seen that one?

Speaker 4 (22:41):
And then it's in the tall Grass, I think, But
do you know if.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
It's a short story or based off a noven that?
I don't know?

Speaker 4 (22:47):
Do you know if that's a short story or a novel?

Speaker 1 (22:49):
So it's based on a novella by Stephen King co
written by his son Joe.

Speaker 2 (22:55):
Do you know you've ever seen the movie or read
the book.

Speaker 1 (22:57):
I've never read the book, So I did go back
through my letterboxed and I did see that.

Speaker 2 (23:02):
I think we both watched or tried to watch it.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
And I don't remember very much about it. I know
the guy that directed it directed that movie, Vincenzo Natali,
I believe it's his name. He directed that movie called Cube,
which is a really no no, no, not Tom Hanks,
it's a like a and it was like his first
feature in indie Yeah Cubert exactly. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
No.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
So so this movie did not make very much of
an impression on me. I'm glad it did on you.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Yeah, I think I I think we watched it only
the same time in the world, Like, nah.

Speaker 6 (23:34):
Yeah, it came out in what twenty twenty two? It
came out the same year, I think twenty three. The
other movie, the other one with Thomas Jane, the other.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
Stephen King movie, oh in nineteen twenty which is absolute
That is the most Stephen King of Stephen King Tingle. Yeah,
it's like Dolores Claiborne. It's that is like the I
that is like my favorite style of Stephen King movie.
Like he's known for his horror, but like his peer
read pieces where it's just.

Speaker 1 (24:01):
Like fucked up story is really But I came out
in twenty nineteen. In the tall Grass. Wow, that long
twenty nineteen, and it was directed by Out of.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
First City in Color Album What twenty twenty oh five
two thousand and five, Yeah right, yeah, Five Body in
a Box two thousand and five. That's fucked so yellow Billions.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
So you'd recommend In the tall Grass on Netflix for
those who haven't seen it. I mean, what you liked it? No, Well,
after you watched it, you said you liked it.

Speaker 4 (24:38):
I thought it was good. Would I watch it again?

Speaker 3 (24:42):
No, But like it wasn't horrible that I turned it
off once it got going, Like you have to see it.

Speaker 4 (24:50):
It's a slow burn, it's a Stephen King.

Speaker 3 (24:51):
Movie, so you have to give you have to give
it like the first like thirty minutes in at least
kind of like start to kick up a little bit,
at least thirty minutes, like maybe even forty five.

Speaker 4 (25:04):
I think it's like at least two hours.

Speaker 3 (25:06):
Cool, but and then it starts getting weird, and then
you're kind of like trying to figure out what's going on,
and they're trying to figure out what's going on. You're
watching all this stuff unfold, and it's kind of wacky anyways.
So it actually had a pretty good ending, to be honest.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
So all right, it was it was okay, it was
okay in the tall grass. I do want to ask
you a stream on Netflix. Uh, I don't think in
the Yeah, all right, Andrew quickly, nothing, okay, fair enough.
I am in the same boat. I'm still reading the
same books that I was reading last time we talked finishing.

Speaker 4 (25:40):
I we only watched this.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Yeah, good job, very good.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
So why don't we take this opportunity to pause for
a quick ninety second break for a word from our sponsors?
And we'll be right back to talk about tonight's movie show.

All right, we're back, baby, Thanks for sticking through it.
Thanks for sticking with it through our little sponsor breakdown
with it.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
Stick Stickley with it, stick Stickley.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
I stick Stickley, you pick with stickstickly. I don't pretend
to be a professional orator. Okay, here, I'm listening. I'm
an amateur. I try to do the best I can't.
All right, that means that we are talking about tonight's movie,
which is one that tragically came out at the end
of twenty twenty four, and therefore, I think when we

(27:30):
did our year end twenty twenty four horror movie episode,
were you the only one that had seen it? Andrew?

Speaker 2 (27:39):
It didn't creep in ten and that's a shame because
it should have. Okay, I've watched it multiple times since, and.

Speaker 4 (27:47):
I'm surprised it wasn't top ten.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
I mean it's it would probably if I wasn't trying
to be so unique with my picks. I'm always trying
to be I want to be different, Like.

Speaker 10 (27:57):
Say, in retrospect, it's the top five, Top five, top
gets up there with Terrifier three and okay whatever other.

Speaker 1 (28:10):
I forget where I forget where as well? As I
actually went back, I I rted this movie on letter
back letter box, excuse me, and went back and checked
my rankings, and I yes, I put this firmly at
number seven, with the only movies ahead of it on
my list being nokes Feratus, Smile to Late Night with

(28:35):
the Devil Alien Romulus long Legs in the substance Late Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
You're trying to like anything so a lot.

Speaker 1 (28:46):
You know what I actually said you, I have to
say it is very at this point. I can't tell
if you're always trolling or if you just genuinely don't
like as much stuff anymore. But when you sayrr movie specifically,
I'm like, Okay, when you do a podcast this, yeah, Kat,
Kat liked it, and I'm interested to hear what she

(29:07):
liked about it.

Speaker 4 (29:07):
And it's not Happy death Day.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
Yeah, it's not Happy death Day. Just say eight and
a twenty four film with lots to think about. And
this movie has a lot to say about religion and
other things. But anyway, this movie again is called Heretic,
and Heretic is a twenty twenty four American horror film
written and directed by Scott Beck and Brian Woods, a

(29:29):
directing duo. These guys also directed Kat another movie that
you really liked, haunt Ye, the Haunted Attraction slasher movie
that was produced by Eli Roth. They also directed sixty
five Andrew, which was the Adam Driver dinosaur time travel
movie not that great, and they also wrote the first

(29:51):
Quiet Place movie, and they also wrote The Boogeyman, which
was a movie that came out in twenty twenty three,
also starring Sophie Thatcher, also based than a Stephen King
short story, and she certainly is a little bit of
a pedigree in the horror genre. For for sure. They
have a lot of things they've worked on and had
their tendrils in, which is good. So again, the movie

(30:12):
stars Sophie Fetcher and Chloe East as two Mormon missionaries
who attempt to convert a man who is more dangerous
than he seems. I would caution you, dear listener, if
you have not seen this movie yet, do not seek
out more of a description than that.

Speaker 2 (30:30):
All you need to know because it don't read the Google.
Just watch the movie. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (30:36):
I didn't know anything going into it.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
And yeah, I I seriously tried to avoid everything about
this movie, and I was kind of blown away.

Speaker 3 (30:43):
It was nice to just know that Hugh Grant is
the villain because you're like, oh, interesting choice.

Speaker 2 (30:48):
He's got a big British face, like he's kind of
like morphed into that role. I think he should be
a villain in more things, Like he's a good he's
like like if he's going to be a villain in
like a Sherlock kind of thing, yep, yep, perfect, Yeah,
British head like to be.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
Fair and Bridge Jones Diary, Like Bridgie Jones Diary.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
He plays an asshole, So I mean, yeahs actually he's
like one of the sweethearts and love Actually.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
Yeah, if you follow his career, which I I admittedly
have not followed Hugh Grant's career very closely, I haven't
seen very many things that he's in.

Speaker 2 (31:24):
You've seen Family Guy make fun of him playing with
his big face, clearly his big British face. But he's
actually like a phenomenal actor.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
But I feel like he was all I knew him
for at certain points was just romantic comedies and like.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
He had the British accent and the charming like gap
to like that's what he was give right, But now
he's I feel like he could go rogue with this,
like you could played like he's in like his serial
killer mode now, like he needs to play that type
of role like John Letgown type of roles, like let's
get fucking weird, like.

Speaker 4 (31:58):
So hlass, I'm Hugh.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
Grant, by the way, I was gonna you can keep
looking that up. He was nominated for Best Actor in
a Motion Picture for Musical or Comedy at the Golden Globes,
which is like, Okay, this is not a musical or
a comedy. Nope, this movie is not a musical or
a comedy. It's a horror movie.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
That's what I was confused by.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
That's why I like, so the gold Globes are fucking
weird because like, nope, not No. Get Out was known
for a Best Picture Musical or Comedy, and get Out
is not a comedy a comedy, right, yeah, because it's
not a drama.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
That's because no, it wasn't a bunch of white people
that made the movies. And they're like, well on this thing,
they just wanted to that's that's offensive by them.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
Hugh Grant did lose to Sebastian Stand for his performance
in A Different Man, which I think is a movie
that you said you saw, no, no, you.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
Know that's a phenomenal movie. You I highly recommend that
movie as just one of the best comedic dramas mm hmm.
And the guy that plays you've seen him, He's been in.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
He was in, he was in the was the Scarlett
Johansson A twenty four we did.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
But no, I mean, like the guy that's like the
main character, like the good like he's been in a
lot of stuff.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
Oh, Subastian Stan He's like in the MCU He's Yeah,
he's like Lucky Barnes, He's But anyway, what I was
gonna say was so I was shocked to see so.
Hugh Grant obviously deservedly, He's phenomenal in this movie, did
a great job. Nominated for an award. This was his
seventh Golden Globe Best Actor nomination.

Speaker 4 (33:34):
Good for him.

Speaker 1 (33:35):
Love actually fucking insane.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
I was like, wait, what were they?

Speaker 1 (33:38):
What the fuck else has he been dominated for?

Speaker 2 (33:41):
Actually?

Speaker 4 (33:41):
How much stuff? Though?

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Love actually a movie that I have never seen, A romantic.

Speaker 2 (33:47):
Comedy, a movie that pulls out your heartstrings. Is Love? Actually?
Colin Firth is phenomenal in that movie as well.

Speaker 4 (33:55):
A Funeral Heretech The Undoing a very angers.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
The Undoing was the HBO show that we watched that was.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Very good, A very English scandal. Warren's Foster Jenkins about
a boy I saw.

Speaker 1 (34:05):
A boy and nodding Hill, nodding Hill.

Speaker 2 (34:11):
Have you ever seen death in the funeral?

Speaker 1 (34:14):
No, I've seen Death Smoochy.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
Death at the Funeral, the British version or the African
American version where it's like a remake, but it's like
Tracy Morgan, that's awesome, like a right, it's like that.
I probably directed it, but I don't think he did.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Hope Tracey did it okay, by the way he did,
he was throwing she had the news recently, but so yeah,
I was very surprised to see that diabetes. Grant has
been his seven Golden globes, wild but good for good
for you. Grant also starring this movie to for Grace
in a White Wig. He shows up in a Blake

(34:50):
and You'll miss it, cameo as the elder that checks
in on the two missionaries. Do you guys actually, did
you guys know that was Grace?

Speaker 2 (35:00):
Was the guy who.

Speaker 1 (35:00):
Plays Eric Foreman in that seventy show. And he's in
like a bunch of other you know exactly who he
is Predators? Predators. Yeah, that's not a movie that cat
recognizes it all. Yeah, he's in a ton of shit.
He's in an episode of Black Mirror, like like he's yeah,
he's in a bunch of shit. Oh that guys, inspided
the like to for grace fucking toe for grace. Yeah,
that guy. Yeah, so the elder that shows up to

(35:23):
check on that, he's wearing a big wig and that's
him and that so that was kind of funny. This
movie is now streaming on Max as are the A
twenty four movies and has a ninety one percent critics
score on Rotten Tomatoes in a seventy six percent audio
audience score, which I think is a pretty big discrepancy there.
I was kind of surprised by that, but I like

(35:45):
this movie. Critics like the movie too. Had a budget
of ten to fifty eight point eight millions to the box office,
which made it a pretty good box office success, I
would say for A twenty four and all the studios involved,
how much money ten million dollar budget in a fifty
eight two point eight million dollar return of the I
take it so, yep, I would take it too.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
When was this release.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Just a few just a few short months, about four
months ago Christmas?

Speaker 4 (36:13):
This is a Christmas release.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
It was like early December, late November.

Speaker 1 (36:18):
Yeah, yeah, so unfortunately interesting, not a lot of people
saw it in theaters, but still made fifty eight point
eight million dollars. Yeah, this is definitely a great movie,
and it's by more people in theaters, but it's pretty cool.
It was like if yeah, so say, let's look little.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
While on and like Zach Kraiger made a horror movie together.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
So it's interesting you say that. I know you did,
like without spoiling it from seeing it, you were like,
this is kind of a lot like Barbary and not
even like it though, like it which not even so
obviously like if you haven't seen this movie, go watch
the movie, come back and talk to us, because that's
what spoilers.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Not even similar to Barbary for that, and the general
story itself is different.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
First, like i'd say hour and fifty teen twenty minutes,
like a very dial heavy character piece between you makes
you think three characters in one setting.

Speaker 3 (37:07):
Yeah, I liked I liked this movie because it made
me think and it makes you question and it makes
you look at Hugh Grant as a character and how
he's interacting with these women and like how what's going
on your scenario for the first like thirty minutes or so, what's.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
What's wild about religion? And generalist they don't want you
to question anything, right and this movie says question.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
Yeah, well everything Also it's important to bring up I
think this obviously this movie, this movie has a huge religious.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
Fugue, the battery Zeitgeist. Seeing that diagmatic from release, she
thousand up all of the similarities between Christianity and like
ancient Egypt and like Mesopotamia and every religion that's ever
existed links into one in the way that he so
eloquently brings it up. As essentially, it's like a version

(37:57):
of monopoly or a version of that song creep by
whoever else did it? Like everyone kind of radio but.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
The era the air that I breathe and then Creep
by Radiohead and then I'll get more more than whenever
it was a sheet.

Speaker 2 (38:16):
So it just goes to show you that, like it's
all just a genre of religion, is.

Speaker 1 (38:22):
Just different flavor.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
Just someone came up with an idea and how to
control people in this whole movie is based off of control,
and he prays that you can control people very easy.
I love the theme of this movie is religious things because.

Speaker 1 (38:36):
I have a lot of it, so it really I
will say, I was very just to talk to you
guys about this movie because I know so I grew
up a lapsed Catholic, like.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
A church church on Eastern.

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Christmas Catholic, okay, cat went to several years of Catholic school,
thirteen years of Catholic school. Andrew grew up as a
Jehovah's Witness, which I know you've already mentioned.

Speaker 2 (39:00):
Might as well be a Mormon.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
It's it's really not a spoiler to say, or like
a church.

Speaker 3 (39:05):
Every Sunday up until I was a junior in high school.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
Yeah, so I am nowhere near as well versed in
the Bible and that type of stuff as you guys are.
You're better at this than I am. But obviously there's
like a lot going on here, and I think that,
like there are obviously some very interesting things discussed about
religion in this movie, and it makes you think. But
it also you have to realize during the movie that

(39:29):
you have to think about whose perspective these things are
being told from and what they want you to think
and feel right, which is the ultimate theme of the
movie in totality.

Speaker 2 (39:40):
So the theme I recognize or view as the most
like authentic to me is there're Mormons you can compare
more like an eccentric group of people that have very
similar but they have a different savior or whoever Campu
Joe's was were very similar, and they were very similar

(40:02):
aspects that males were the head of the household. You
listen to the man is in charge, and women were
viewed as lesser thens whatever I mean, it's for whatever
you want to say. So like if you were to
be sitting at the church as a Jehovah's witness and
there would be a drama or a meeting going on,

(40:24):
and there'd be a talk, which is people talking on
the stage. If it was a guy, like a dude,
like an elder, do you just stand in front of
the microphone you talk to everybody, there would also be
two women on the stage doing a similar talk or
a like interaction had to have a head covering on.

(40:47):
Interesting like looking at you didn't interact with the you
were sinking. There was two women sitting across from each
other interacting with anybody else, which is very similar to this,
where like they constantly be like, well, your wife has
to be here. I need your wife here. I can't
be alone, like we have to have this. Like women
are very like so I can I understand like where
they're coming from. And that whole like anxiety that they're

(41:07):
getting from this and not figuring it out early enough
is very interesting to me because you had basically that
one girl who was like, I need to get a
return visit, which return visits through what jo what it's called, Like,
we need to get to sell your and that was
like her big thing. Yeah, we got to sell the
religion and she was struggling to do that.

Speaker 1 (41:27):
If I off you before you continue, Uh. Sophie Thatcher
and Chloe East, who are the two actresses that are
playing the missionaries in this both grew up as members
of the LDS Church, so they also were able to
collaborate on the Yeah. So they both were able to
provide some authenticity for their roles in this movie.

Speaker 4 (41:46):
So that's cool.

Speaker 1 (41:47):
Yeah, And I will get to it. But the the church,
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, did
actually put out an official statement about this movie after
it was released.

Speaker 2 (41:57):
No, I just like a lot of similarities between that
and you know, Jehovah's Witnesses. It's interesting that there hasn't
been a movie yet about this about Jehovah's Witnesses. No,
Like you get there's plenty of movies made about Catholics Mormons,
and you never get one about Jehovah's witnesses, which I
find and I'm curious why it is. Maybe because they
don't think enough people relate. But I could do it

(42:20):
and it would be more. You get a better viewership
because no one's getting offended by it, because everyone's like, well,
they're Jehoa's witnesses. They view them the same way that
people view Mormons. You view Mormons is like weirdos.

Speaker 4 (42:34):
Right, well, I mean right, you kind of think like.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
You think about how you view Muslims Mormons.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
You don't know much unless your unless you are all
bias based opinions. Right about Mormons. Think about self park
doing the Book of Mormon.

Speaker 2 (42:54):
Most people think you.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
Viewed that as some weird cults that multiple wives and women.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
And what's funny about it is you're not wrong. They
are weird cults. But what nobody seems to understand is
that this weird cult is pretty much based off of
the weird cult that everybody believes. Yes, oh well it's
okay if you're Catholic, Well no, that's a weird cult
to you. Guys. Just pretend like it's not You're like, oh,
well you know it's different ten children.

Speaker 4 (43:23):
Okay, well that's so it's an interesting.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
Interesting that, like it's certain religions are viewed as a
cult when in reality mm hmm, they're all culty, right,
Like just because you're a Catholic, I mean you're not weird.

Speaker 4 (43:38):
I like Jewish were first.

Speaker 11 (43:42):
Is like Judy different, Like it's like ben Way Park
Monopoly exactly.

Speaker 3 (43:54):
And I'm like I'm sitting like that's an amazing analogy.

Speaker 2 (43:58):
That's but they are based off of yeah, you know,
Mesopotamia and the original religions in Egypt to all based
off the sun. It's all based off of beings. So
just because so it's just funny to me that like
when Bash is certain religions and it's like, well, no,
your religion is just as stupid as this one.

Speaker 4 (44:17):
Even that he says like the door won't open until
the sun rises.

Speaker 1 (44:21):
Like super scientology scientology is stupid.

Speaker 3 (44:24):
Well, I don't know anything, but it's it is. It's
so interesting how he makes this whole analogy of like.

Speaker 4 (44:32):
The religions, and it's a perfect analogy.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Is It's it's like geist's if you've seen that documentary.
They're basically he's basically the guys. If you look it up,
it's this documentary probably came out in like two thousand
and six, right when like YouTube first came out. It
was like a YouTube documentary. You watch, it's very entertaining,
it's very interesting, and it just talks about like how

(44:55):
everything is just based off of something that's like Christianity,
and yeah, it's all just a belief. You know, I ain't.
That's what they believed, and we're just turning into something
else you should believe. If you don't believe this, you're stupid.
And in reality, it's like, well, no, you're stupid too,
because you believe the same exact thing. It's just a
different way of marketing. It's McDonald's instead of Burger. There's

(45:16):
no difference.

Speaker 4 (45:17):
It's a wink.

Speaker 2 (45:19):
This one has mustard. Yeah, catch up. Oh cool.

Speaker 3 (45:21):
But they're selling they're selling religions, they're selling things to
believe in. At first, it was to answer questions that
they couldn't they couldn't be answered. But now with science
and with things like they can start to answer questions
they have like fossils, they're learning more things about science
and they're saying like this didn't actually happen or this,
and then there's different interpretations in the Bible. There's things
that like in the Catholic Bible they leave out intentionally

(45:44):
because they go against the teachings of Catholicism.

Speaker 2 (45:47):
So like like the Book of they don't want to
even talk about that book exactly.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
They don't want to talk about different books.

Speaker 3 (45:52):
There's like secret books in the Bible that they do
not include in a regulars say a life.

Speaker 2 (45:57):
They want to talk about it because it it basically
makes them go, oh, well, like giants were real, Nefelin
were real.

Speaker 4 (46:04):
They say, jammons came down.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
Like there's a lot of ships that they don't want
to get into.

Speaker 3 (46:07):
But then they're like, well these were Then there's then
they get the whole beliefs that like no, but then
they get the beliefs of like fundamentalists versus people that
are taking things as story. So you're either taking the
Bible literally or you're taking it as this was a story.
It's supposed to guide you in life as a message
saying be a better person because of the story, not
like this actually happened.

Speaker 2 (46:28):
The best part about this movie is it shows how
easily you can convince the yes that if it's going
to be better for you, and you continually go on
and go on, you convince someone to believe it and
it's not even true.

Speaker 3 (46:41):
And he's believing, he's believing them to get further and
further into the house and further and further down the
rabbit hole until they get into the very bottom.

Speaker 4 (46:50):
And like he does that, that's what he's doing.

Speaker 2 (46:53):
Also is playing him too, Oh absolutely, yes, the other
one so that she just kind of just like it's
the one that you think the least of and go
and you're like, oh, she actually is paying attention to everything.

Speaker 1 (47:07):
They both So two things I'll say just to just
to interject here because I'm I'm loving listening to the
two of you guys go. This is the first time,
Like I am very interested to hear what you guys
say because these things, you guys clearly know more about
the Bible and religion than I do. I'm I am
listening to everything you guys are saying, so all the

(47:30):
important stuff. I also thought it was very interesting and
a very cool part of Hugh Grant's character and one
that kind of showed his belief system that throughout the
entire time that Chloe East is the actress's name, who
plays what is her name? Uh so basically I also
saw it, by the way, none of them are addressed

(47:50):
by their first name.

Speaker 2 (47:51):
The entire movie.

Speaker 1 (47:52):
It's sister Barnes and sister Paxton Barnes read Kennedy. Those
are the four characters, Paxton and Barnes, the two missionaries.
Mister Reed is Hugh, Mister Reid is Hugh Grant, and
then Kennedy is tofer Grace's elder character. And that's it.

Speaker 4 (48:08):
That's besides the prophet. It's really only three in the
cage lady.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Yeah, profit, But I thought it was very interesting that
like Hugh Grant operated like a scientist when he was
talking to Barnes' character, right, she would present a hypothesis
to him, and he kept saying the word hypothesis about
like the simulation. She said, simulation theory, said no, the

(48:37):
simulation hypothesis, and she would present some fact that maybe
she thought was true, and he'd say, okay, why, and
then he just kept saying why, Okay, why do you
think that? Okay, why what makes you so? Like I
thought it was like, like that's kind of how you
should think about things.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
Right should always be. Yeah, that's the difference with religion
is your past. Why you're told to shut your mouth
and just accept except when in reality, if you really
look at it, simulation theory holds just as much merit
as Catholicism.

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Whenever you can't say that to a fucking anybody or though,
go you're a herodic. By the way, Andrew, oh, he
said the title of the movie he drives, I'll drive
to cheers. Guys, what simulation theory thing? I was like,
Oh my god, tell me this is going to go
this directionally lasted for a couple of months.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
It was, well, he was just proving a point simulation
justice justice much, I mean, and it's not if you
really think about it, there's it is just as much
likely that we are living in a simulation as we are. Actually,
I think it's more like than some fucking weird dude
created us. It was like, don't walk with my son.

(49:56):
I'll kill my son.

Speaker 4 (49:58):
What do you want to do because.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
I'll kill him. I killed him. I'm a better circumcised yourself.
Have you your son's dick off? Abraham? What the fuck
is going off?

Speaker 4 (50:09):
If you put the sims.

Speaker 3 (50:11):
You're absolutely building a pool and then not getting away
out and drowning as many.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
If you're playing rollers, you're definitely building a roller where
everybody yes, and you're building a park where no one
can leave and giving me all your money and everybody
because we all are in the image of God, and
that's how God. When you have control control, if you're
in a satan, then yes, God exists, yes and wed.

Speaker 4 (50:39):
But I I loved all of this movie. I thought
it was fantastic.

Speaker 1 (50:45):
Yeah, so let's let's get back to the movie. I
thought the movie also rocked. That was great.

Speaker 4 (50:49):
Was an amazing villain in this.

Speaker 1 (50:51):
He's great, like he's he's a great villain, perfectly like
he was so creepy and he like when it's stuff
like this is like like her fixed. This is a
perfect a twenty four movie in the sense like that
bringing in Hugh Grant, who has essentially turned into at
this point in his career for a leading man in
romantic comedies. He's like a character actor.

Speaker 2 (51:13):
Yeah, that's what he is.

Speaker 1 (51:15):
Ye bring him in as like the main villain beautifully
domb I mean, wonderful, awesome. The fact that when they
when every bit deserving of the nomination for the award.

Speaker 2 (51:24):
He got when he goes Sovie Thatcher's character and he goes,
you know that the candle is apple pie, blueberry pie.
You know that my wife is not in the next room, right,
But you still believe it because I told you, And
like that's it's so perfect. It's like yeah, it's like, yeah,

(51:48):
he's just proving to you. That's your religion is you're
believing that because I told you because you want to.
You want to believe that because if that isn't true,
Oh my god, because what is going to happen, right,
It's gonna like if that's not true, I'm foked.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
They'y so eager to gain new believers and new members
of the church that they're willing to accept at face value.

Speaker 2 (52:11):
It's not even that thing. It's more the fact that
they're so willing to believe that because they know that
if that's not true, they're in a situation that is death.
Like you're if your wife isn't in the other room,
and this isn't you're making up. Then if I'm here
and I've been held coptive and I can't cannass.

Speaker 1 (52:33):
Right, speaking of blueberry pie. I thought one of the
creepiest parts of the entire movie was when Sophie Thatcher.
He asked Sophie Thatcher about how her father died, and
he mishears Lou Garrig's disease and says blueberry pie disease
or whatever whatever the fuck he actually says.

Speaker 4 (52:54):
He did, he said, like blueberry pie disease.

Speaker 1 (52:56):
That moment actually happened to director Brian Woods at Abody
just heard.

Speaker 2 (53:03):
How his father died for blueberry pie.

Speaker 1 (53:07):
And somebody said something similar to him, huh, and he
wrote it into the movie interesting, interesting, Yeah, Yeah, which
is fucking wild. That's like that that. I was like, dude,
this guy is fucking crazy. Yeah, blueberry pie disease. Like like,
are you just trying to be like super weird? Like
well clear, yeah. Well when he says that, I just go,

(53:28):
you're fucking with them, yeah, like he's yeah, something something's
going on here.

Speaker 3 (53:33):
So I think I really like the firing back and
forth between them constantly, like he'll throw something at them,
especially when they get into the room that's like the
sanctuary or whatever with the cues and whatever, and he's
like firing off all these things to them because he's
then challenging them now that they've gotten into this new
area in the house, they're not sitting in the living

(53:55):
room with the candle. He's now like, okay, now I'm
going a point where I can challenge you, and they're
back and forth.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
Is just like, so, let's be honest. Nothing really happens
in this movie for about forty five minutes except for
about dialog. Attention, it builds, it builds, attention, but like
nothing actually dword until about about four five minutes.

Speaker 2 (54:18):
Oh, I wouldn't say the plot. I would say that
the plot is being built upon the entire time. Yeah,
action things that like maybe entertaining.

Speaker 1 (54:26):
Maybe that's the better words.

Speaker 2 (54:27):
Action. There's no action for But this is this first
forty five minutes. This is very tense forty five minutes.
It's constantly building, building, building, and you don't know where.

Speaker 1 (54:38):
I don't want to give the wrong impression.

Speaker 2 (54:39):
My attention was held the entire Well that's the thing,
Like it's building towards something and you don't know what
it's building towards, and it's making you uncomfortable.

Speaker 4 (54:47):
This is a very intellectual watching a warm slot.

Speaker 9 (54:50):
You know.

Speaker 2 (54:51):
Oh okay, I'm not saying more and saying it's it's more,
it's it's entertaining. It's building towards something. You don't know
what it's building towards. It is very it's not that intellectual.
But let's not turn this movie and talking like the
most it's like Stephen Hawkings, I.

Speaker 4 (55:05):
Think, no, but I think that people who are very.

Speaker 3 (55:09):
People who are very verse in different religions and know
a lot about them, like really appreciate this movie because
they can relate.

Speaker 4 (55:16):
And yeah, but that doesn't make you see the different perspective.

Speaker 3 (55:20):
No, But I mean if you know more about the
different religions, you can see the different perspectives.

Speaker 4 (55:23):
And you're putting all of this together.

Speaker 2 (55:25):
Yes, if you have a background in theology or whatever.

Speaker 3 (55:28):
Exactly, yes, then you're like, wow, this is this is
wild and you're like, but you also agree with it
in the same sense. You're like, this guy makes a
lot of sense, and you're like, these girls are just
standing their ground, being like no, but yeah, you see,
like you're.

Speaker 2 (55:45):
Horrified, right exactly, Like they're not really at some point
in this they're not just standing their ground. They're just
trying to survive. Well, yeah, once they because they know
that they're fucked because they're females in a really bad situation.

Speaker 4 (55:56):
The doors out that are stares down, And I think that.

Speaker 2 (56:00):
That's another that's another part of religion that this plays upon,
is that women in religion they're viewed as less than.

Speaker 4 (56:08):
What did you think of the doors to the robs
and like the way way.

Speaker 2 (56:11):
Down like the barbarian like the weird, creeping creepy.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
Yeah, there was like two or the way out is through, right,
mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (56:22):
But it wasn't through really, it was through.

Speaker 2 (56:25):
It was true through, but like through, it wasn't just through.
It was like you have to go all the way through. Yeah, yeah,
Which it gets a little wild, like stabs him in
the neck and he doesn't still around.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
I don't understand because movie, because movie, that's one of
those things because he.

Speaker 2 (56:47):
Got stabbed in the and he was alive for like
fifteen minutes of this motherfucker's dead.

Speaker 1 (56:53):
Or they got also Sophie Thatcher got stabbed, like her
throat slip, like she's like, you know, she's still gonna
kill this guy, all right, Cool.

Speaker 4 (57:02):
She lost her weight in blood. Probably she's still there.

Speaker 1 (57:06):
But what I was gonna say was, you know, one
of the directors, Uh said that they were inspired by
the movie Contact with Jodi Foster and Matthew mcconnor Not
in Long Time, because Contact apparently explores the themes of
religion but away. That's why they what they wanted to do.

Speaker 2 (57:25):
With this particular movie, which I thought was well in
that time period, you really.

Speaker 1 (57:27):
Couldn't do that, Yeah, because I was like ninety six
gotta be around there.

Speaker 2 (57:33):
Early in mccontact, that was like after Sounds of the Lambs.

Speaker 3 (57:37):
Were you blown away by that girl that se like
an idiot at the end when she was just like
spitting off all these things about like her theory as well.

Speaker 2 (57:45):
She played him so well she did.

Speaker 4 (57:47):
I was I was floored, to be honest, because I
was like, I thought she was gonna she was not
gonna be.

Speaker 2 (57:51):
The final she was she knew how to survive in
that situation.

Speaker 4 (57:55):
I thought she didn't have been cage.

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Well, she also had been trained that, like she's a girl,
Like she was acting the way she was supposed to
act in that type of situation. There's a man involved.
He's clearly you're smarter than us, like you're better than us.
Like she was just being what she was trained to
be right. It worked out.

Speaker 1 (58:13):
This is so fucking fucked up.

Speaker 2 (58:15):
But that's religion for you, Like, what are women allows doing? Religion?

Speaker 3 (58:20):
That's what makes us home of even more fucked up,
Like it's on a whole other level of this is
how women are viewed.

Speaker 1 (58:26):
He there's one of your couple of other little easter
eggs about this movie that I discovered when I was
researching this.

Speaker 2 (58:33):
It is it is April twenty, So we're so late,
isn't it four twenty? Oh shit, so is gonna be weaster.

Speaker 1 (58:48):
It's kind of a hard o thing. The end credits
for this movie. I didn't see this. I would have
to go back and watch to confirm, but it does
say on IMDb that the end credits do feature a
statement saying, quote, know generative AI was used in the making.

Speaker 2 (59:02):
Of this film.

Speaker 4 (59:04):
I mean, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
Is that what people are going to have to start
to say? Moving forward? AI? Though?

Speaker 2 (59:09):
I mean the Barbarian.

Speaker 1 (59:13):
Literally, I guess Late Night with Late Night with the
Devil there was some AI used to create certain things
and people.

Speaker 2 (59:20):
Were like alien, Well yeah, what's his face?

Speaker 1 (59:26):
Oh no, but those are like robots in the future
in a fictional future, but they were using They didn't
they didn't use AI to create the actual like actual
parts of the movie.

Speaker 2 (59:35):
It was the guys acting. They used his face. The
guy was dead.

Speaker 1 (59:39):
Oh that's actually right. They yeah, you're right, Yeah, you're right,
you're right that they would probably say C G I E.

Speaker 2 (59:49):
And home, you know, yeah, fucking.

Speaker 1 (59:54):
When they're walking into the.

Speaker 2 (59:56):
House of the.

Speaker 1 (59:58):
H Chloe whatever actress says to Sophie Thatcher, the more
famous actress, you should sing. You have a great voice,
and she says, now, I hate my voice. Turns out
that Sophie Thatcher is actually a singer, has released a
couple of albums, and the music that plays over the
end credits is her performing a cover version of Knocking

(01:00:18):
on Heaven's Door set to the tune of Fade Into
You by Mazzie Starr, which is a great song from
the nineties, which are also two songs that are very,
very similar. I don't think that they've been sued by
each other, but it also reiterates that theme of Okay,

(01:00:38):
do you know the song Fade into You that I'm
talking about by Mazzie Starkers Okay, it's it's a great song.
It's fantastic. I'll put it on you and then i'll
know it. You'll know when you you would know the
song if if you heard it, I'll work on Yeah,
Sophie Thatcher is actually a musical artist, in addition to
being probably heard her songs. Yeah, the address of the

(01:01:05):
house by the way, number two thirty seven, that's from
from from the Shining obviously.

Speaker 2 (01:01:12):
Let's see done, dundun.

Speaker 1 (01:01:16):
Here's one for you guys, actually into uh as uh
here we go.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
By the way.

Speaker 1 (01:01:27):
I know it's.

Speaker 2 (01:01:30):
Very lesbian song.

Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
Yes, so she does fade it a knocking on Heaven's door.
The lyrics to that song set to that music, which
I feel like, that's that's like a very interesting okay interesting,
here's one for you religious scholars.

Speaker 2 (01:01:43):
YouTube.

Speaker 1 (01:01:45):
Three nails obviously are widely accepted as symbols of Christ's
crucifixion and subsequent resurrection. The board used to save Sister
Paxton when when sister has three nails, yep.

Speaker 4 (01:01:58):
Stick, what is that st.

Speaker 2 (01:02:02):
Maybe? Yeah, that's well, which you can't which he was
never hung like that because you could not be you
can only be hunt like this. So there's one of
the one of the feet maybe the other one was
in the heart.

Speaker 1 (01:02:19):
I think them they put one through both of his
feet and then one.

Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
In each one of the one It was like this.
He wasn't hung like this. Possible your arms would rip
off of your body is part of what that is.
It was this the cross is Christ was hung like this,
one through the hands, one through the feet, and one
through the heart. Okay, steak, steak. We can wrap it up.

Speaker 1 (01:02:47):
Heretic if you guys want, here's the official statement and uh.
The Church of the Christ of Latter Day Saints about
this movie, by the way, so let's see. Uh. Following
the debut of the psychological thriller Heretic at a Toronto
film festival in September, in the theatrical earliest month, the
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints released a

(01:03:09):
statement of the portrayal of church missionaries in this film,
while also highlighting how the church keeps its missionaries safe.
Film's narrative centers on blah blah blah.

Speaker 2 (01:03:20):
We already talked about that.

Speaker 4 (01:03:22):
You're not going to the house. Let's schedule a zoom call.

Speaker 3 (01:03:28):
I was gonna say, it's interesting how he does compare
like marketing, because they were like, how many people.

Speaker 4 (01:03:36):
Are like why is Judys down and whatever? And they're
like because they don't have people going door to door
like trying to yea.

Speaker 2 (01:03:42):
Well, you know, they have commercials for Christianity, so it
is all about religion and you can't blame them. It's
a money in the industry. It's an industry.

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
I have a statement whenever you guys are ready, yes quote.
Like many Hollywood productions, this is a work of fiction.
Is not based on actual events. It portrays the graphically
violent treatment of women, including people of faith and those
who provide volunteer service to their communities. Any narrative that
promotes violence against women because of their faith or or
undermines the contribution of volunteers runs counter to the safety

(01:04:17):
and well being of our communities. A thorough, regular program
of physical and emotional safety training ensues. Our commitment is
to foster a culture of respect, empowerment, and safety for
all individuals.

Speaker 2 (01:04:32):
I think people realized that the Church of Latter Dane
Saints wasn't saying that women should be abused. Well, yeah,
this is like no one thought that, like the creature
in the basement was real. I think they're going a
little bit like this makes you one. See, these are
the type of things that religious societies do that make
you go, what the fuck are you hyping? Yeah, we

(01:04:56):
never have buried. There's nobody in the basement doing this. Yeah, no,
fucking shit. I didn't think there was. I thought this
was a movie.

Speaker 1 (01:05:04):
They also released this Weird Thing to bring up two things,
first being missionary standards and conduct, followed by general safety training.
Here's under missionary Standards and conduct. It's a little bit long,
so bear with me. One live the commandments moral purity, honesty,
and healthy living.

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
Two.

Speaker 1 (01:05:24):
Take care of the physical health and exercise regularly. Three
focus on mental health and emotional Together and assigned companionships.
Companions are hair not to be separated regularly. Communicate with family.
Follow guidelines before entering someone's home, including and ensuring you
are not alone with someone of the opposite sex exactly.
Return home by nine PM or earlier, depending on local conditions.

(01:05:47):
Use technology wisely and avoid disclosing personal information. Do not
carry cash or anything of significant value. Avoid contact sports
or any other high risk activity, including swimming promptly were
apports safety threats, including assault and harassment. Follows service guidelines,
which includes not handling dangerous machinery. General. These all fall

(01:06:09):
under general safety training, autoobile safety, bicycle safety, carbon monoxide
and smoke detectors, courtesy and cultural awareness, diet hygiene and exercise,
including food preparation and safe drinking water. I mean these
are all basic humans insect byte protection, pedestrian safety, proper

(01:06:29):
behavior with children, safe housing, natural disasters or political unrest,
situational awareness, stress management.

Speaker 4 (01:06:37):
I mean, I will say when you right, but when
you say things like that, like way out of the box,
and when I was thinking, I'm like, you know, if
you are a meeting with someone trying to talk about
your religion and they're like, hey, let's go on a
bike ride, and then you're like, okay, let's go on
a bike.

Speaker 2 (01:06:52):
I mean, it's better than teaching your child than Hey,
you can be like anybody you want to.

Speaker 1 (01:06:56):
Be, like, hey, you want to go to the BBC
for a beer to talk? Should I protect yourself?

Speaker 2 (01:07:02):
Or hey, now if you feel like the feeling is
brillly and you want to be a female today, go
for it. That's fine to that. That's not what they're thinking.
They're saying. They're literally telling you, like, this is safe,
safe behavior. And people are like, these people are out
of their minds.

Speaker 4 (01:07:21):
It's like, no, they're they're saying that we train people
to be safe.

Speaker 2 (01:07:25):
Don't don't be alone with a bunch of men. Probably
a good idea. Probably a good idea.

Speaker 4 (01:07:32):
I mean women and men in the same situation, though.

Speaker 3 (01:07:35):
I mean, you know, if you're like a little guy
in your bia my daughter every day, everyone should just
be a Mormon. But I think it's it's it goes
both ways. Like if you find yourself in a situation
where you think that you're not safe, do not pursue,
like just be like you know, a board mission.

Speaker 4 (01:07:56):
Okay, Like it's no, but I mean you should. The
thing is, you should use.

Speaker 3 (01:08:04):
Your absolute best judgment before you walk into someone's door.
And that's why they stayed outside in the rain for
so long, because I mean they.

Speaker 4 (01:08:12):
Were literally in the rain for way longer than.

Speaker 3 (01:08:16):
They should have been, just like sitting there soaking, like
talking to him through the door and then he's like, oh,
do you want to commit, and we're like, we can't
come in with us as a woman present.

Speaker 4 (01:08:24):
So I mean they were practicing like safe procedures because.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
They were trying She was trying to do she was
at some times, I just gotta just that's not you, like,
that's that's you gotta be humble, it's not happening. It's
not happening today. Don't put yourself in a situation where
it's going to be a bad situation.

Speaker 4 (01:08:48):
Let's I can see your wife like it's I.

Speaker 2 (01:08:51):
Mean, there's a lot of people. Well that you shouldn't
blame someone for that, Like, that's no, I completely agree.
Just because somebody puts themselves in a situation doesn't mean
that you should exploit that situation right and be a
terrible person. But unfortunately, the reality of it is is
that if people do put that in theirselves the situation,
there's always going to be someone that's going to exploit
that situation for their betterment. So you can't say, like, well,

(01:09:12):
that's just an excuse. If you say, like, it's both situations,
don't put yourself in that situation and don't expect that
the people that you put yourself in that situation with
are going to be very forgiving nice. Yeah. Most people
are pieces of shit. Yeah, So when people say that,
they're not saying that to be like, oh, well, men,

(01:09:34):
they're gonna do whatever they want. No, you don't know
who you're around, right, So don't put yourself in a
position where that could happen, right, be smart. Yeah, but
even regardless, it doesn't make it doesn't make what the
weirdos are doing right right, Situational awareness.

Speaker 4 (01:09:48):
Yeah, exactly, Yeah, because I mean it could be just
a man in the room. It could be a man
and a woman.

Speaker 3 (01:09:52):
I mean that man, if he's crazy enough, could abuse
this woman anyway. It could be like you met my wife,
she's gone upstairs by let's continue talk like I mean,
it could just like you.

Speaker 2 (01:10:01):

Speaker 1 (01:10:42):
I'm so it's literally probably one of those things where
like that might detect when I'm not home, because the
only time that we actually get people that are king
or doorbell ringing to try and who's.

a helmet.

leave us alone. It's yeah, I don't ever want to
be consulted or you know, anything.

Speaker 2 (01:11:06):
Like window whatever.

Speaker 1 (01:11:09):
Well, because maybe they know that we have old windows,
but that's neither here nor there. Well, if I had
to say, I think this is a really good, thought
provoking good I love this.

at it and like I I was interested in the entire.

So I watched some of it with you when you
watched it, and you liked it.

Speaker 2 (01:12:22):

Speaker 4 (01:12:22):

but you liked it, right.

Speaker 1 (01:12:26):
I did like it could No, I already haven't.

Speaker 4 (01:12:27):
I made I made my share, I made.

Speaker 1 (01:12:30):
My thoughts known already. Okay, Yeah, No, I I wanted
to listen anytime that I don't have to be the
one talking to the majority of the time of this podcast.
I'm very interested because I feel like I do a
lot of talking a lot of the time. You guys,
you guys do have very strong opinions on this particular topic.
So I'm glad that I let you guys kind of
do your thing, because you guys have much more of

(01:12:52):
a background in religion.

Speaker 2 (01:12:54):
Than I do.

Speaker 1 (01:12:54):
So I said that earlier, and I think that that's true.

Speaker 2 (01:12:57):
And I like games.

Speaker 4 (01:12:59):
You do like game structure of the house as like
a little dollhouse.

Speaker 1 (01:13:04):
Yeah, that's also because that's because movie that's weird like that.
That would have never fucking worked out. That would have
never worked out.

Speaker 4 (01:13:10):
What do you mean it would have never worked out?

Speaker 1 (01:13:11):
He's like the whole the whole layout, the whole layout
of that house. I mean it's if you're like owning
a ranch house that goes downhill in.

Speaker 4 (01:13:20):
The back, like board game version.

Speaker 1 (01:13:22):
Yeah, like that kind of was a little bit like
hereditary Personally, I don't.

Speaker 2 (01:13:26):
Know, it was cool, it was different.

Speaker 4 (01:13:29):
He's like playing the mass pieces, being like they're gonna
go down here and then they're gonna.

Speaker 2 (01:13:32):
Go I think that was just like a symbol of it.
I don't think he was actually playing the game. I
don't think that game exists, No, but he like made it. No,
I don't think he made that. I think it just
was like an overshot. What was happening?

Speaker 4 (01:13:44):
All right?

Speaker 1 (01:13:44):
Before we sign off, I should probably talk about real quick,
because we we we normally do like year in horror
for whatever year twenty twenty four. Turns out we did
a whole episode on that which you can go back
and listen to. But the the box office for that
year for horror, let's see, Heretic was Oh my god,

(01:14:08):
not even close to anything here.

Speaker 2 (01:14:10):
No, I wouldn't imagine.

Speaker 3 (01:14:11):
It was the end of the year, but sometimes the
end of the year is like when you remember the
most you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (01:14:16):
Oh sorry, Paratic was number eleven at the box office
for horror in the year twenty twenty four, with fifty
eight point eight million dollars.

Speaker 2 (01:14:24):
That's pretty game good.

Speaker 1 (01:14:25):
Yea, yep, that was worldwide though, so oh sorry, I'm
looking at domestic US box office numbers. Okay, so Heretic
at number eleven made twenty seven million dollars. Number ten Imaginary,
which was a.

Speaker 2 (01:14:39):
So this list is irrelevant. I'm not even I don't
even care about.

Speaker 1 (01:14:43):
Your Night's number nine movie relevant A Strangers Chapter one, irrelevant, stake,
the Speak No Evil Remake, irrelevant, Stink No Sparatu number
six dollars. Terrior Free at number that also came.

Speaker 2 (01:14:57):
Out December twenty fifth Restaurant, so that's in like five days.
I mean, if you're going based off the year, right, Yep,
sure it it sure did. Yep.

Speaker 1 (01:15:05):
To seventy fifth twenty twenty four was the release date.
Christmas Fire three fifty nine million dollars came out in October.
Sixty nine million dollars came twenty twenty four. Long Legs

Speaker 1 (01:15:26):
Number two Alien Romulus released in August one hundred and
five point three million dollars, and a number one, It's
Amazing to Me A Quiet Place to Day one released
in June of twenty twenty. Watched that movie Nope, one
hundred and thirty nine point one million dollars, so boring.
A PG thirteen movie, one of two PG thirteen horror movies,

(01:15:50):
Imaginary Imaginary was the other one, and sorry, three of
the seventh. Three of the ten Imaginary Night, Swim, Quiet Place.
Everything will rated our or unrated in the case of
Terrifier three. So all right, guys, do we have anything
else that we want to say on here tech. I
think we've done a very good job explaining our opinions

(01:16:10):
talking about religion. Yeah, cool stuff, pretty good and spooky Hound.

Speaker 2 (01:16:16):

Speaker 1 (01:16:17):

can't actually be heard into the microphone. I'm on the
floor petting this spooky good. Don't let him bark, please,

our last episode. All Right, guys, I think it's going
